My Super Apocalypse Tank - Chapter 333
c333 star
Since the TV station notified them that they would shoot a movie based on the leader Gu Ming, and another TV series, all the actors in the TV station were very excited. If they could play a leading or supporting role, they would leave a deep impression in the eyes of the upper-level leaders, and maybe leave a good impression on the leader, which would definitely make their status different in the future.
The TV station has an actor department. Most of the actors in this department were stars before the apocalypse. They were lucky not to become zombies in the apocalypse, and they were lucky to join Gu Ming’s base and return to their old jobs at the TV station.
Of course, now is different from the past. These star actors are now just employees of the TV station. It is impossible for them to receive sky-high salaries like before the doomsday. Traffic stars without acting skills are not qualified to enter the TV station at all. This also makes some traffic stars who dream of becoming stars regret it. They regret that they lived too comfortably before the doomsday, which led to poor acting skills. Now they have no ability to enter the TV station and can only work in factories and farms in the base, or be waiters. What makes them disappointed is that even if the people in the base see them, they don’t regard them as stars before the doomsday, but just ordinary people. This gap is too big. Some traffic stars who were not recruited into the TV station couldn’t stand this gap and committed suicide directly.
When Ouyang Yanfei heard this news from Tian Shaoyao, she just said lightly, “Oh, there is also this matter. They are quite courageous.”
Tian Shaoyao was not pleading for those traffic stars, but just lamenting their ending. Now the actors in the actor department of the TV station are all actors with acting skills, and those without acting skills cannot enter. The director of the actor department is Tian Shaoyao. As Ouyang Yanfei’s confidant, the most important department of this TV station was handed over to her.
“Sister Tian, are all here?”
“Yes, everyone is here, and everything is ready.”
Tian Shaoyao knew what Ouyang Yanfei was asking. This time she came to report to the other party about the actor’s interview. The script, director and so on are all ready. Only the actor has not been decided. Of course, the most important thing is to choose the actor who plays the role of Gu Ming. Otherwise, if the movie and TV series are not satisfactory after the filming, everyone will be in trouble.
So Ouyang Yanfei simply arranged an interview, that is, an actor audition. Anyone who is willing can sign up to participate. Of course, it is limited to the actor department of the TV station.
When Ouyang Yanfei and the others came to the audition room, Zhang Ying, the director of the TV station, and Li Nana, the deputy director, Zhou Meilan, Song Wenli and Gu Shaofen were all there. Some of them were there for work, such as Zhang Ying and Li Nana, who were interviewers, and the other three were just curious about how the actors auditioned. Although they did not have any admiration for celebrity actors, after all, even these actors in the base were just low-level people. They were paid the salary of civil servants in the base, which was equivalent to ordinary civil servants. They had no privileges at all. The people in the base had experienced the cruel life of the doomsday, and there was no fan circle culture, no crazy fans, and no star chasers. It might take more than ten years, until the next generation of children grow up, before these things that existed before the doomsday will be born again.
Several girls played around for a while. Except for Song Wenli and Gu Shaofen who moved out because of marriage, the others still lived together. They were like sisters. No one in the base could provoke them. Just like now, they were playing around in the audition room. The other staff of the TV station also looked at them with smiles on their faces. No fool would remind them or persuade them. Everyone was not stupid.
In the end, it was Ouyang Yanfei who thought of the business, and everyone stopped playing around. This made the other staff in the room feel relieved. They thought that there would not be enough time today. It seems that Minister Ouyang still knows that there is business to do.
In another room, this room is a large conference room, now full of people, they are here to audition for the male and female protagonists and important male and female supporting roles today, basically they are all big actors in the film and television industry before the doomsday. If it is before the doomsday, each of them has more than a dozen people following them, such as assistants, bodyguards, etc., but now they are like before the doomsday, sitting in the conference room for a role honestly. Although they have been waiting for an hour, no one dares to complain. Everyone is a powerful actor. It can be said that no one is a fool. As long as someone is a fool, then others don’t mind going to Minister Ouyang to make a small report.
Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and the film and television industry is no exception. Whether it is before the doomsday or in the doomsday era, it is human nature to keep warm together.
In the conference room, twos and threes who usually have a good relationship sit together, and no one is alone. Being independent in the film and television industry is to seek death. No one will find such people to act, not to mention that Xiaguo is a society of human relationships. No matter what you do, you have to rely on relationships. Of course, this is the rule before the doomsday, but in the doomsday era, many things are useless.
Now everyone is at the same starting line, and everyone has to make a living based on their own abilities. If your acting skills are not good, you won’t be able to get any resources from the TV station. Actors with good acting skills can be the protagonists in the TV station’s self-produced dramas, while those with poor acting skills can only play supporting roles or passers-by. No one does not fight for it. After all, as actors, in addition to the basic salary, they can only earn more if they perform in TV dramas or variety shows.
A group of actors who were stars before the doomsday, it’s not that no one has an imbalanced mentality, but they are all professional actors, and at least they can control their emotions. Those who can’t control their emotions can’t enter the TV station.
If there is anything that makes these actors envious, it is Ouyang Yanfei, who is also a star. Many female stars are super jealous of Ouyang Yanfei. You should know that although Ouyang Yanfei was called a little queen before the doomsday, her status in the entertainment industry is not ranked at all. She is the kind of artist who always walks in front of the red carpet at the award ceremony, while many of them are big stars and basically appear at the end.
Why can Ouyang Yanfei be the head of the propaganda department in the base, and why can she be in a high position in the management committee? Women are completely irrational when they are jealous, not to mention female stars. Some female stars are even thinking whether Ouyang Yanfei has hooked up with the leader Gu Ming. Only in this way can the other party be in a high position. It is normal for them to think so. After all, they did this before the end of the world. Without the help of the big guys, they could not climb up and get a lot of resources. In the entertainment industry, no one can succeed by hard work alone without the support of nobles.
Fortunately, these women did not lose their minds. If they really thought that they could influence public opinion in the base, then they would have only one way to go. They said that there were no fools because even if they wanted Ouyang Yanfei to die in their hearts and they could replace her, they would flatter Ouyang Yanfei in person. It can be said that they are worthy of being powerful actors. They integrate acting skills into every aspect of life and are acting at any time. This is also normal. Men dare not marry an actress, especially a powerful actress, because you don’t know whether her usual care for you is acting.
Liu Long was talking to the people around him while thinking about his own things. The role he auditioned for this time was the male lead, but he knew that he had many competitors. Of course, the only competitor he valued was Brother Hu. His acting skills were perfect, and his acting skills were a bit worse than his. However, he was not without advantages. His age was a bit old and his appearance was not good, especially after experiencing the baptism of the doomsday, he looked much older than before the doomsday. His appearance was much more handsome than his opponent. Of course, this was not absolute, after all, the appearance could be made up for by makeup.
In fact, Brother Hu was also thinking about how he would perform later. He was a real actor, and before the doomsday, he did not make a living by appearance or traffic. He had basically won all the major awards in Xiaguo. Moreover, he had another advantage, that is, he had a little friendship with Ouyang Yanfei. Although they were not so familiar, it was much better than others. This was also one of the main reasons why he could get more resources in the TV station. Of course, another reason was that his acting skills were good.
If he could play the leading role this time, Hu knew he could move up a level. No one doesn’t want to live a good life. Who would refuse to live a comfortable life? He also has to consider his parents and wife and daughter. In order for them to live a better life, he has to work harder.
Three women make a play. The actresses are more lively. Anyway, the audition has not started yet, and the staff in the conference room did not stop them from talking, so the actresses who have a good relationship with each other chatted about gossip in groups of three or two.
“Pang Di, congratulations on your variety show ranking first in ratings.”
Yang Bao smiled and congratulated Pang Di. Although her tone was happy, she was cursing in her heart. This woman is just one thing on the surface and another in her heart.
“Nothing, isn’t the ratings of the TV series starring you, Sister Yang, also very good?”
Pang Di and Yang Bao live next door to each other. They often meet and deal with each other, so the two who had no relationship before the end of the world have a superficial relationship like good friends, but how can they have real friendship as actresses?
It’s like they are competitors this time. The roles they auditioned for are both leading actresses. It can be said that even if they stab each other in the face, others will not find it strange.
Yang Bao did not answer. There was only one TV station in the entire base, and only three or four TV series were broadcast every day. It was not a good thing to be ranked third in the ratings. The other party’s sarcastic words made her very uncomfortable. Although her acting skills had improved a lot compared to before the doomsday, she was still not as good as the other party. The competition for the heroine this time was very fierce. She knew that her hope was not great, but she still wanted to give it a try. If she succeeded, she would be very lucky.
“Everyone, please get ready. The audition has begun.”
At this time, a staff member came in and announced that the noisy environment in the conference room immediately quieted down. They knew that whether they could become the top actor and actress in the TV station in the future depended on this audition. This audition was related to their future status.
