Chapter 276 Can’t hold it back
Zhu Xun looked at Xu Kun with gratitude, then hurried to communicate with the program crew and re-planned the rehearsal order for each group.
And at the same time.
There were also people making sarcastic remarks below the stage, and their target was naturally Zhao Liying, who had suddenly jumped out and "clinged" to Director Xu.
Then a female contestant covered half of her mouth, but said in a voice that could be heard by everyone nearby: "As expected, people who used to be female public relations know how to handle things. This has left an impression on Director Xu. If she works hard in the future, she will definitely be selected..."
"Who are you calling a female publicist? Explain yourself clearly!"
Zhao Liying would not tolerate this. If she was someone who was easy to bully, she would not be able to sit in the front row.
The female contestant sneered and said, "Haha~ I didn't mention any names, so how could someone take the initiative to admit it?"
Zhao Liying simply stood up, walked up to the other party, and asked condescendingly: "Then tell me clearly, who here has worked as a female public relations officer?!"
The green tea female contestant was cornered by her, so she simply stood up and said, "Isn't sales just public relations? Or are you not actually a woman?!"
"you!"
Zhao Liying was furious, clenching her fists and glaring at him.
Because of her popularity these days, many rumors have been spread. The most vicious one is that the sales assistant was misinterpreted as a female public relations officer, and then linked it with social stereotypes.
"What do you want to do?"
The green tea female contestant shrank aside and said in a timid tone: "There are special judges present now. If you dare to make a move, you will definitely be kicked out of the program team!"
Someone nearby also pulled Zhao Liying aside and advised, "Zhao Liying, please don't be impulsive. You just left a good impression on Director Xu, and you were kicked out for a few jokes. It's not worth it."
"Is this a joke?"
Zhao Liying glared at the person who was taking sides, then suddenly shook off her pull and returned to her seat.
Everyone thought she had given in, and the green tea contestant was even more smug: "Huh, what you did yourself, you don't think others can say anything about it?"
Before she finished her words, Zhao Liying turned back and without saying a word, sprayed water all over the face of the green tea contestant.
"I'm sorry."
She showed the bottle of mineral water hidden behind her back and said, "Your joke is so funny. I tried to hold it back but still couldn't."
The green tea female contestant was sprayed like a drowned chicken, her lipstick, eyeliner and cheek powder were all smudged, and when she wiped it subconsciously, it looked like a clown's mask.
"you you!"
She was so angry that she clenched her fists and glared, wanting to pounce on him, but Zhao Liying had no intention of backing down. Instead, she put the mineral water aside and assumed the starting posture of a military boxing.
In fact, she had never learned it seriously. She just saw her father, a policeman, practice it, so she just imitated him.
But this is enough to scare the green tea girl who looks strong but is actually weak.
The one who had just taken sides came up to the green tea girl and advised her, "You should go backstage and touch up your makeup, otherwise you will miss the rehearsal."
The green tea girl then stomped her feet, covered her face and walked away.
Zhao Liying sat back in the front row as if nothing had happened.
The dispute in the audience was soon reported to Zhu Xun and Li Chen by someone with ulterior motives.
However, the two of them didn't take it too seriously. This was how the circle was. Competitors would do anything to achieve their goals, and spreading obscene rumors was the most basic operation - of course, this was also because the atmosphere in the circle was already unhealthy.
As for Zhao Liying's reaction...
In this circle, people who are too soft-hearted will not be able to survive. You have to be vindictive so that others will not dare to provoke you easily.
However, it depends on who you are seeking revenge against. If you dare to resist a big shot in the circle, you will be labeled as "ungrateful".
Zhu Xun thought about it for a moment, then quietly revealed the matter to Xu Kun, and complimented him: "It's true that like idols, like fans."
"Haha~" Xu Kun waved his hand and laughed, "What the little girl said casually may not be true."
I have encountered similar things more often recently. Anyone can pretend to be his die-hard fan for 20 years. With so much experience, I naturally have some doubts when encountering something.
However, Zhao Liying claims to be the group manager of Aikun, which is easy to verify.
At this time, Li Chen brought over a detailed list and sent it to the three special judges one by one.
Then he specifically instructed: "There is a person named Song Xiaobo in Director Chen's group. I hope the three judges can be a little more careful with their words when commenting..."
"how?"
Yu Min asked in confusion: "Is this the person that the program is going to recommend?"
As he said this, he couldn't help but glance at Chen Hong.
"no no!"
Zhu Xun quickly explained: "Song Xiaobo is deaf-mute, and his situation is special. So in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the program team hopes that the three of you can carefully evaluate his performance."
Deaf and mute people also come to the draft?
Xu Kun flipped through Song Xiaobo's file and found a big title "Deaf-mute boy" on it.
Not only Song Xiaobo, but several other male contestants' files also have similar labels, such as "introverted boy" and "little Daniel Wu".
Seeing Xu Kun looking through the labels, Zhu Xun hurriedly added, "Our program team puts labels on them in the hope of highlighting their own characteristics as much as possible, so that everyone can understand their advantages more quickly and directly."
Can being deaf and dumb be considered an advantage?
uh~
In a talent show where playing the victim is king, this might actually be an advantage.
However, Xu Kun is not optimistic that he can make it to the end, because in addition to being able to sign a contract with Huayi, the champions of each group will also be able to shoot three short commercials for Yahoo - and his identity as a deaf-mute will put him in great limitations when shooting commercials.
Next, it was each group's turn to rehearse on stage.
In addition to the common elective talent shows, there are also situational simulation sessions.
For example, the reaction after winning 500 million in the lottery, or the reaction after hearing about an accident at home.
In this segment, each group of contestants showed off their talents in a frenzy - if he had to use three words to describe it, Xu Kun felt it should be: eye-catching.
Many people even got stuck as soon as they went on stage and were unable to complete the performance smoothly.
Those who graduate from professional schools are better, but not much better - if their professional qualities are strong, why would actors with professional training participate in talent shows?
The three judges each performed their duties. Chen Hong was responsible for finding faults, Yu Min was responsible for praising and encouraging, and Xu Kun used his previous experience as a supporting actor to instruct the contestants on where they should improve.
Because there were so few who were pleasing to her eye, Chen Hong even forgot to vent her anger on the contestants in Feng Xiaogang's group - or rather, she had already vented her anger on them, but in the eyes of others, it made no difference whether she cursed a few more or a few less.
When the rehearsal came to a temporary end at noon, Chen Hong was still a little unsatisfied, so she took the initiative to challenge Xu Kun: "Xiao Xu, it's useless for you to just talk about how to improve. Why don't you also perform on stage and set an example for them."
"sure."
Xu Kun knew that she wanted to find fault with him, so he immediately turned the tables and said, "But I can't do it alone, how about you lend me a hand, Sister Hong, and let Director Yu give us some comments?"
Chen Hong didn't expect Xu Kun to drag her down with him, but she was quite confident in her acting skills, so she stood up without thinking and said, "Then let's give it a try. I also want to see what level your '30-year unique show' is at!"
In fact, "the only one in thirty years" refers to Xu Kun's box office success and has little to do with his acting skills.
Chen Hong said this purely to take the opportunity to put pressure on Xu Kun.
But Xu Kun was not afraid at all. He stood up and followed Chen Hong to the center of the stage.
If it were two years ago, when he had just started playing Tian Jian, he would always be outshined by his predecessors when faced with such on-the-spot situations.
But in the past two years, he learned from his mistakes and became more courageous. He often sought advice from the masters of the National Theatre of China. During the filming of "The Boss", he would seek guidance from Yang Lixin and Song Xinxin whenever he had free time.
He is still a little short of the required skills to perform in a stage play at the National Theatre of China, but if it is just a situation imitation, he doesn't believe that he can't keep up with Chen Hong's acting!
