15. Dreams and Hopes

Ye Sumang's posture had just been pulled away, and a group of people rushed over.

"Get out of the way, line up, see the recruitment conditions before coming over." He had expected this situation to happen, Ye Sumang calmly took out a loudspeaker and handed it to Huang Bo. Suddenly, a quotation of order with a Qingdao accent echoed throughout the audience.

The extras were very obedient. As soon as Huang Bo shouted a few words, everyone scattered. Only a few novices were still standing there, but they were soon pulled back by the old fried dough sticks.

After all, as long as you spend some time at the entrance of the film studio, you will understand that the director’s first impression of you is very important. You can do whatever the director says, otherwise no matter how good you perform, the director can deny everything about you in just one sentence.

All kinds of men, women, young and old quickly lined up a long queue because the actors Ye Sumang recruited were all with lines and were paid quite a lot of treatment. So even though the conditions were harsh, many people were still attracted by the director with hope.

Amid Huang Bo's shout, recruitment officially began.

"Brother, I'm here to interview the heroine. What do you think of me?"

"Sorry, the fresh and beautiful girl we want, you don't meet the requirements..."

"Where do you see that I'm not fresh or beautiful, I'm blind!" A girl with heavy makeup originally wanted to lean forward and get close to Ye Sumang, but Ye Sumang directly rejected her without mercy, and immediately twisted her waist and left angrily. She secretly hated this handsome guy for being confused.

"Grandma, you are not of the right age, come again next time."

"What did you say?"

"I said you are not suitable for age, come again next time!" Ye Sumang looked helpless at the old lady who was almost 80 years old in front of him, and saw that the old lady was still confused and said, "What did you say?"

“…”

"I'm going crazy, who are these people?" Huang Bo complained with exhaustion when he was having lunch at noon. He deeply felt the helplessness and pain of the applicant.

The recruitment this morning was undoubtedly disappointing. Obviously, the quality of these extras did not meet Ye Sumang's requirements. After interviewing for so long, they only selected a few less important small roles. What's more serious is that there are many people in the interview team who join in the fun like the old lady before, which is simply a waste of Ye Sumang's time.

You know, for Ye Sumang now, time is money!!!

Just as they were having a meal, a few people suddenly gathered in the team for applying for the job. After a while, the team applying for the job was disbanded.

"Why are there no one?" Huang Bo looked at the dispersed crowd in confusion and shouted anxiously.

Ye Sumang didn't say anything, just staring at the few people walking over. Ye Sumang knew that the group leader was coming to cause trouble. They recruited actors without passing through the group leader, which undoubtedly did not comply with the industry rules, so it was natural to be asked to be troubled by the group leader.

"Little guy, have we allowed to recruit actors at the entrance of the Beijing Film Studio?" The leader was a bald man, obviously the person in charge of the group of "heads".

"Why do you need your permission?" Ye Sumang smiled and shook his head, and asked back. At this time, he must be tough, otherwise he will be bullied by these group leaders to death.

When Ye Sumang said this, several group heads turned dark and surrounded him in the middle. Huang Bo and Ning Hao also put down their lunch box and stood next to Ye Sumang. The situation on both sides suddenly became nervous. But at this moment, a person ran out of the extra, pulled over the bald head who had just spoken, muttered a few words in his ear, and then retreated.

The bald group waved his hand and asked the people around him to retreat, and suddenly asked, "Are you the grandson of Mr. Ye?"

"What, are you scared?" Ye Sumang's lips were filled with a hint of mockery.

"You...!" The bald group was a little angry by Ye Sumang's attitude, and his eyes were filled with anger. He wanted to burst out but was worried about Ye Xian's identity. He could only threaten with a sarcastic threat: "Even if Mr. Ye is filming, he must go through us to contact the extra. This is the rule in this industry. Do you understand?"

"Well, then when my grandfather is filming, you can tell him. Now I am filming, so naturally I will recruit actors according to my own rules." Ye Sumang sat leisurely on the chair beside him, and suddenly asked the bald group head in surprise, "Do you invest money in my movie?"

"No...no." The bald group felt the blue veins on his forehead jumping. The boy like a hob in front of him made him feel like he was in a hurry, but he couldn't do it.

"Since you haven't invested money, are your hand stretching too long?" Ye Sumang's expression gradually became cold at this moment.

"You... go and see!" The bald group was so suffocated by Ye Sumang's words that he couldn't speak. Finally, he pointed to Ye Sumang for a long time, lost the scene and left with several group leaders.

During the afternoon interview, Ye Sumang could only describe it as being deserted compared to the grand occasion in the morning. More than three hours passed, and two or three kittens came. The previous extras were obviously deliberately brought to other crews by those group leaders.

Ye Sumang was not concerned about this. Although with his grandfather's connections, it was not a problem to make things difficult for these group leaders as long as he knew a few crews. But Ye Sumang did not want to owe a lot of favor debts for this little thing, and because he had been interviewing for a whole morning, he really looked down on the acting skills of these extras.

Stop and rest, three hours passed in the afternoon. Just as the three of them were so bored that they were about to close the stall and leave, a pretty girl walked to Ye Sumang timidly, handed a form, and looked at Ye Sumang in anticipation.

"Go and go, the interview is over, what have you done long ago?" Huang Bo held his temper for an afternoon. Now he was in a bad mood, so he naturally became angry when he spoke.

The girl was startled by Huang Bo's black face, and her eyes suddenly became wet. She stood there tremblingly, looking particularly pitiful, but she didn't take a step under her feet, and she still stood firmly, looking at Ye Sumang with a nervous look on her face.

"Okay, okay, you guys keep cleaning up, I'll be interviewing this." Ye Sumang waved his hand, drove Huang Bo and Ning Hao aside, and then picked up the form handed over by the girl.

Although Ye Sumang's eyes were frozen on the table, the thoughts in his heart had already flown away.

Ye Sumang knew the girl in front of him.

Although the two of them had never had any intersection, and they didn't even know the names they had with each other. But he had really seen this girl's wasted years of five years.

Ning Hao and Huang Bo were both looking at Ye Sumang with incredible expressions. They saw what happened just now, but they really didn't expect Ye Sumang to finally give the girl a role. You must know that during the interview on this day, they witnessed Ye Sumang with their own eyes the coldness and ruthlessness and decisiveness of killing.

"Why did I promise to give her a role? I don't think she's acting well, and there seems to be no role suitable for her in the script." Ning Hao asked in confusion when he saw Ye Sumang sitting over.

"Without a character, can't you add one?" Ye Sumang asked with a smile. Only he knew that he just wanted to give someone who insisted on his dream.

"Have you packed it up? Let's go back. We won't recruit people from the film factory tomorrow. I have already figured out the place and will definitely find the actors we need!"

"Where?" Huang Bo and Ning Hao asked in unison.

"It's right there!" Ye Sumang reached straight to the opposite side of the road, which was the direction of the Kyoto Film Academy.
