The next day, an outdoor training camp in the suburbs.
Early in the morning, this place was booked, bringing together female celebrities recommended by several companies. They were all dressed in the most professional sportswear.
Among them was an actress who had failed to compete for the role of Gong Lan.
...
It was known in and out of the industry that being able to work with Yuan Director meant succeeding in transforming into a powerful actress. Although the process would also be very difficult, it was very worthwhile.
As time went by and age increased, no one could be a traffic flower forever. In order to continue having roles to act in, transformation was sooner or later.
Moreover, Yuan Director's box office had always been guaranteed. After cooperating, she would also be associated with high box office, and the returns would be proportional to the investment. Her commercial value in the future would also increase.
With so many benefits, it was worth a try.
This script had four main roles, and the story revolved around them. The competition for all the roles was very intense, but the competition for the two female roles was especially fierce.
Because the attention to these two roles was high enough, and according to the storyline already known in the industry, if these two roles were played well, there was a certain possibility of becoming popular.
But this was unpredictable as well. It could only be said that the probability was greater. After all, whether it became popular or not was always metaphysics in the film and television industry.
...
A total of five actresses came, including Chen Xinya from Shengshi Entertainment and Su Xiaoxiao who had just signed a contract not long ago. These two had been working hard to compete for the role of Gong Lan before, trying to move the director with perseverance and sincerity through repeated auditions, but did not succeed.
There was also Yan Jinyu from Fire Rain and Liu Xin. Liu Xin had terminated her contract with Shengshi after the plagiarism scandal with Gu Minghua, and later accepted the enthusiastic invitation of Fire Rain. She was an artist who had just been signed by Fire Rain.
At that time, her reputation had indeed declined a lot, but she had a large number of diehard fans. In addition, Fire Rain Entertainment suppressed negative hot searches very quickly, so work went on as usual for her, and Fire Rain Entertainment tried to allocate all good resources to Liu Xin whenever possible.
Only then did Fire Rain make her attach importance to this opportunity. She could also vaguely feel that if she did not perform well this time, what the company could give her would be much less than before.
Then there was the independent studio artist Shen Qingqing. Her advantage was that she had collaborated with Yuan Director before, and it was said that she had a very rich "gold master", some said it was her father, some said it was her godfather, but no one had ever found out who exactly it was.
A quartz gray Cadillac drove in, and a young woman got out of the car.
She wore Dior sunglasses, a high ponytail, and a black Prada work suit with tactical boots from the same brand. The handsomeness level was maxed out.
Yuan Director and Song Huan applauded her, but except for Shen Qingqing, the other four actresses didn't say anything, just smiled at each other.
Each piece of this outfit cost tens of thousands of yuan, because they were all high-end brands, so wearing them was flashy enough.
But it was obvious that Prada, though high-end, was not a professional sports brand, and its degree of professionalism was certainly not as good as sports brands.
After all, it was just sports-style fashion.
How about them?
Their sportswear were from the sports brands with the highest degree of professionalism, high-tech fabrics, waterproof and soft and comfortable, very elastic, no tight or uncomfortable feeling.
The sports shoes were even more technological, made of the lightest and most breathable fabrics, the soles were made of high-tech materials, using anti-slip shock absorption technology. The whole pair of shoes was as light as nothing, and could protect the ankles.
Compared with Qin Wei, the price could not match, but the performance absolutely exceeded her by miles.
Chen Xinya whispered to her new colleague:
"Qin Wei is like a upstart, she was so poor when she had no money. She wore clothes bought online for tens of yuan during the shooting of the show "Against the Wind". Now that she is doing well, she buys cars and houses, and adds the most expensive things to herself..."
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Chen Xinya innocently:
"Sister Xinya, Sister Weiwei looks so good in these clothes. Girls will definitely prioritize whether the clothes look good or not. I really like Sister Weiwei's outfit!
If the company didn't insist we wear this, I might choose Prada too."
"Whether you choose this outfit or not, she may not choose you. This is a limited edition, expensive and hard to buy."
After speaking, Chen Xinya snorted coldly, really not wanting to talk to her. Previously, when they were in the same company with Liu Xin, the two had things to talk about, but now that Liu Xin was gone, she had successfully become the number one in the company. Although her resources had risen to another level, she was also much more bored.
She turned to look at Liu Xin, but Liu Xin held a grudge and completely ignored her.
Qin Wei looked left and right, very good! They were all acquaintances.
Then there was no need for self-introduction!
As an introvert with social anxiety, she hated this step the most!
When meeting acquaintances, just nodding and waving was enough.
So the five actresses saw Qin Wei waving her hand at them with a cold face, signaling them not to approach her, and then walked away.
Alright, after the status rose, she didn't recognize people anymore.
Qin Wei walked straight to Song Huan:
"Who goes first? Or should we go at once?"
Song Huan smiled brilliantly:
"Let's get it over with at once, less troublesome!"
Qin Wei asked again:
"Muay Thai or grappling?"
Song Huan glanced at the five people sitting there and made a simple assessment:
"Military boxing, after all, there is no blood feud, no need to cripple anyone, right?"
Qin Wei was full of confidence: "I know my limits, I won't mess up someone else's arm like a certain idiot."
When it came to this, Song Huan never talked back, preferring to eat the loss in silence.
Listening to their ambitious manner wanting to defeat each other, Yuan Director was puzzled:
"It's just a physical test, not a martial arts competition. Who are you two trying to defeat?"
...
As required by Yuan Director, Song Huan temporarily served as the instructor again, gathering the six of them together, pointing to the various training facilities on the training ground and saying:
"Since you are all fond of the role of Zhao Yu, then you should know that Zhao Yu is like a martial arts god in this movie.
Shooting it in a cool way also means the shooting process will be arduous. I know you will say you are not afraid of hardship or tiredness, but I never care about what people say, I want to see what you have done!
You must pass the basic physical test! Now I will demonstrate, you go up one by one, succeed and then move on to the next item, failure is allowed, you can start over after failing, or quit."
The first item was walking on plum blossom stakes, each section higher than the previous, the highest one was about ten meters off the ground.
The protection measures were very comprehensive, the same as when performing wire work in movies.
This was very simple, but Yuan Director had an additional requirement:
"You need to act out an agile and relaxed feeling."
Seeing everyone was a little puzzled, Yuan Director explained:
"I'm not shooting a documentary of your training. Everything we do now is to serve the performance. Naturally I don't want you to look clumsy and strenuous."
While Yuan Director was talking, Song Huan had already put on the safety gear and clipped on the wire. She jumped onto the first plum blossom stake, saw everyone watching her, then easily leapt onto the second one, all the way to the top, as easy as climbing stairs.
Song Huan stood at the top, waved at them, then leapt down with the help of the wire worker, landing stylishly.
"Who's next!"
"Reporting, instructor!"
"Speak!"
"I'll go!"
"Who are you!"
"Qin Wei!"
Qin Wei put on the equipment and jumped onto the plum blossom stakes, one after another upwards, until the top.
Yuan Director watched from below, communicating with Song Huan from time to time:
"Very good rhythm, no unnecessary moves, looks very relaxed. This kind of control and steady mindset is very good to me."
Yuan Director praised Qin Wei, but Song Huan felt very proud:
"Oh, is that so? It's just so-so. The kid bawled like a dog the first time rappelling from a helicopter, but she succeeded in the end."
Yuan Xintang twitched his mouth:
"Crying is normal, right? Twenty meters high is no joke. Ordinary people would already be very nervous just looking down, let alone going down."
During the conversation, Qin Wei had already climbed to the top. She waved to signal and leapt down under the cooperation of the wire worker, swooping down sharply like a black eagle, landing steadily.
Song Huan stopped the timer: "Two minutes and thirty seconds! Who's next!"
"Me."
Liu Xin raised her hand.
