Chen Shuting and Lao Xie waited in the conference room for a while, but the director and the others came in.

The air conditioner in the office was a little high, and Chen Shuting was so hot that he poured a few glasses of water to drink, and fanned the information paper on the table.

The paper rustled like the sound of the wind under the eaves.

Lao Xie finally looked up and looked at Chen Shuting: "Are you nervous?"

Chen Shuting also felt a little nervous at this time. He was not nervous when he was being troubled by someone for the first time in the live show; he was not nervous when he was being recorded in a hasty rehearsal.

However, at this moment, he was nervous about audition for a secondary role.

The reason is indescribable.

When he thought of his original industry, he felt a little empty in his heart, as if he had stepped on the air. Before he fell, his heart was already sinking.

"It's been twenty minutes..." Chen Shuting answered the question irrelevantly, and threw away the information paper in his hand. He took out his mobile phone to check the entertainment news, browsed the forum, and made a meager look.

A few minutes later, the secretary came in and said to them with a little apology: "There are still a few auditions today. Director Shi and others are not coming to the company anymore. I asked the two teachers if they could go to his place..."

"It's okay, let's go here." Lao Xie said.

The secretary smiled, told Director Shi's address Lao Xie and Chen Shuting, and took the initiative to call a taxi for them.

Chen Shuting and Lao Xie went downstairs, and the taxi was already waiting at the door, and directly pulled them to the place where Director Shi asked to meet.

There is also an office here, which is relatively small in scale. There are already many people working and studios.

Not only the studio, but also a huge dance practice classroom here.

The dance practice classroom can provide martial arts guidance and auditions, which is why they are here.

Chen Shuting came in, and the mirror on the south wall reflected the figures of people, and the complex branches of crystal lamps. The interweaving of light and shadow made the classroom of few people seem crowded and busy.

"Director Wang, this is Teacher Chen and his agent." The front desk lady who led them in said to a man in his early thirties.

Director Wang is one of the deputy directors of the director team, and he is also responsible for today's audition.

"Sit down, wait first." Director Wang was young and had a little arrogant attitude. Chen Shuting and Lao Xie were about to go up and shake hands. Before he could touch him, he had turned around and sat down.

Chen Shuting and Lao Xie took back their hands without any trace and silently went to the plastic chair next to them.

"...How many roles are you trying today?" The boy sitting next to Director Wang, who is about the same age as Chen Shuting, is also here to audition today and whisper to Director Wang.

This person came early and was already familiar with Director Wang.

"Just one: Meng Yi." Director Wang said impatiently and had a bad tone.

Today, the candidate for the role of "Meng Yi" was confirmed. This was not the public audition of their director team, but the fact that there were too many people who were forced into it from all walks of life, forcing them to make a semi-public audition choice, making everyone give up.

Apart from the eight people in the protagonist group, the character "Meng Yi" who has the most role left is, so everyone is overwhelmed.

The candidates for the protagonist group, producer Liu Kai, must strictly control the candidates and will not be handed over to the director. Others heard that the protagonist group is difficult to enter, and only "Meng Yi" is a character with a strong role, and each person shows his supernatural powers to compete.

All gods and immortals have their own magic weapons, and no one can be offended, so the director team made this audition today. If they can't get the role of Meng Yi, there will be other more important characters for them.

"How many people will be there to audition?" another person next door asked.

"Five." Although the young director Wang was impatient, he also answered one by one.

Those present now, including Chen Shuting, are already three artists, and the others are their agents or assistants.

That is to say, the director and the other two artists who auditioned have not arrived yet.

"Old Xie, the competition for casting for this crew is very fierce." Chen Shuting whispered to Lao Xie.

"When did you change your words and call me Lao Xie? Brother Xie will not call me?" Lao Xie and Chen Shuting's focus is no longer on the same line.

As he was talking, two more artists came in, accompanied by his agent.

Like Chen Shuting, they wanted to shake hands with Director Wang, but Director Wang refused as usual. Chen Shuting felt that he might have a cleanliness habit and did not like anyone touching the skin.

After waiting for another fifteen minutes, it was 10:50. Director Shi, the chief director, finally came in with a martial arts instructor behind him.

Director Shi is fat and has a sloppy beard, like a traditional down-and-out artist. He is not a versatile person. He barely said hello and said the topic directly without any nonsense.

"The character Meng Yi has added traditional Chinese martial arts and has many close-kick scenes. His action scenes should be beautiful and beautiful, and in line with traditional martial arts.

We invited Mr. Ge Lingyi, a famous teacher from the Nanjiang Martial Arts Performance Team, to demonstrate martial arts performances to everyone. You can learn from them. Let me see what you are doing.” Director Shi said.

Everyone who came to audition knew that there was this episode.

Director Shi also knew the names of the people who came to audition today. So he recited in the order of his notepad: "The first auditioner, Zhou Hang; the second one, Kong Zhiru, was ready."

After Director Shi said that, he stepped back to the corner chair and sat down.

The audition artist Zhou Hang stepped forward and shook hands with the martial arts performer.

Martial arts performer Ge Lingyi walked to the center of the classroom. He was only in his twenties, a little shy, and his voice stuttered a few times: "I am practicing Wudang Kung Fu, so I can get Wudang's Nine Palace Fist, there are only five moves."

Others applauded.

Ge Lingyi deliberately slowed down his movements. He stood up, and his left foot stepped up into four or six steps. His left fist covered his palm from top to front to the bottom of the navel, with his palm facing down, and his fingers facing forward. He started to move his hands first and then moved his feet, and poked his palm up at the same time. His foot fell and exerted force to reach the fingertips.

"The 'golden spear from Wudang Nine Palace Fist comes out of the forest'." Chen Shuting looked at his first move and thought silently.

Ge Lingyi's movements were very slow and deliberately let the audition artist see clearly.

Immediately afterwards, he used the second move to "Hungry Tiger Fight"; then "The Green Dragon Flying", followed by "Welcome the Door and Accept the Guest", and finally "Swallows Through the Forest" ended.

Zhou Hang was stunned when the audition: "No, no, Teacher Ge, you, do it again..."

Ge Lingyi had a good temper and immediately beat him again.

"Where is this good? In magic TV series, if you don't use special stunts, but you want this kind of thing, what's the use?" Deputy Director Wang couldn't help but complain to Director Shi.

The addition of this martial arts performance was strongly requested by the producers, and Director Shi and others had no right to refuse.

Just like Deputy Director Wang’s idea, Director Shi couldn’t see what was good about this.

In previous TV series, there has never been such a form. People have weapons in their fights and then special effects.

"This style of play is funny, not an acrobatic performance." Deputy Director Wang continued to complain.

Director Shi glanced at him and signaled him not to speak. Director Shi himself was also unsure and was as irritated as Deputy Director Wang.

The producer is responsible for the preparation of the TV series, but the director is the operator.

The director was unsatisfied, how could he shoot this scene? However, they had to listen to the producer, and they had to find the score immediately even if they didn’t have any. The two directors were in a bad mood and had a bad temper.

"This... this is too difficult, I can't learn it." After Ge Lingyi finished the second part, Zhou Hang followed him and felt that it was much more difficult than dancing. He had to cramp his hands and feet, but he still couldn't watch it.

"Then let's be the second one." Director Shi said very simply.

Zhou Hang didn't bother him and retreated immediately.

The second person, Kong Zhiru, had a dance skills. Ge Lingyi handed him seven or eight times, and he was finally able to imitate three or four points.

Not only the director, but other people present also found it funny and had no idea why this kind of martial arts performance was used in idol magic dramas.

"What the hell is this?" Lao Xie was puzzled. Lao Xie felt that Liu Kai had always been reliable, so Lao Xie didn't say anything at the beginning until he finished reading the two of them, Lao Xie was also confused.

Anyway, he didn't see a market for such performances.

The third one is Wei Hanwen. He has no dance skills and can't learn it even if he dies. However, he is stubborn and asked Ge Lingyi to hand him over for half an hour, but in the end he still failed to practice 20%.

The fourth person is Chen Xin.

Chen Xin is a fair and handsome boy, a little lazy, so she barely learned how to do it for a few moments and immediately said, "I can't learn it." He gave up.

Chen Shuting was ranked last.

It was already dinner time, everyone was hungry, and they didn't know what was going on, all lost their patience.

Director Shi thought to himself: "This is not a dance skill, and he can't learn it at all if his hands and feet are not coordinated. Among these people, only Kong Zhiru has a dance skill, so just him."

So, Chen Shuting stepped forward, director Shi and deputy director Wang had no energy to see it, waiting for Chen Shuting to finish fooling around, and then everyone went to have a meal.

Chen Shuting stepped forward and shook hands with Ge Lingyi.

"I also practice martial arts myself." Chen Shuting said to Ge Lingyi.

These words attracted a little attention in the empty and quiet classroom. At least Director Shi and Deputy Director Wang let this place watch it, no longer seemingly absent-minded.

"Really?" Ge Lingyi was surprised, "What did the teacher learn?"

"I learned a lot, but I also practice Wudang Kung Fu. If you don't have to practice it specifically for me, it's better for us to use a few moves and don't take ruthless measures. How about it?" Chen Shuting asked Ge Lingyi.

Ge Lingyi smiled, showing a little tiger's teeth, looking very honest: "Okay. Don't worry, I'm serious and won't hurt you."

"Director, is that OK?" Chen Shuting turned his head again and asked Director Shi and Deputy Director Wang.

The two directors didn't know what they meant and just wanted to end it quickly, so they nodded and said, "Hurry up."

"What the hell is Chen Shuting?" Both directors thought about it in their hearts. However, the directors didn't care. They just wanted to go for a meal at this moment.

Chen Shuting said yes.

He and Ge Lingyi were ready, and then Chen Shuting made a move first. He attacked Ge Lingyi with a mysterious step, deliberately exposing the hollow gate and seducing Ge Lingyi to take action.

Ge Lingyi was in the martial arts art troupe since he was a child, and performing martial arts was his job. As soon as Chen Shuting made a move, Ge Lingyi knew that it was the "Black Tiger Dingshan" in the nine palaces and eighteen legs of Wudang. He was not fooled and directly raised his right leg to attack Chen Shuting's upper chest.

Chen Shuting avoided his attack and made another move of "wind sweeping the leaves", and Ge Lingyi responded with "a prodigal son playing football".

After a few moves, Chen Shuting and Ge Lingyi did not gain the upper hand.
