North City District, AE Building.
"Mr. Tao, your clothes... " Song San examined Tao Rong's attire from head to toe, looking troubled.
"What's wrong?" Tao Rong asked in confusion.
"Why did you come dressed in training attire?" Song San exclaimed, holding his forehead.
"Isn't that Fan Lihua? A knife-playing dan, huh?" Tao Rong became even more confused.
Song San remained silent and speechless. "Oh well, are you planning to act in it too? Forget about that for now. Let me tell you about our play. This film is called 'The Garden Party.' It's set in the Republican era, where various factions gather at the Humble Administrator's Garden for a banquet. On the surface, it's a celebration of General Chen's birthday, but in reality, it's a game of strategy between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, as well as the involvement of Japan, the United States, and Russia. You, on the other hand, are entrusted with the role of Su Sheng, a character nurtured by Liu Qinchun. Although you will be providing the voice, you should at least know some background story," Song San said, as he handed the script to Tao Rong.
Tao Rong's serious attitude has always reassured Song San, but he couldn't help but say a few words: "Boss Tao, even though I am the casting director, I actually have no decision-making power. When you go in later, sit in the middle seat, the one with the longest hair. That's the director, Lian Juesheng. Although you don't know him, he's actually quite famous as a promising young director. He has high expectations, which is why he personally wants to see the dubbing actors. But don't worry! I've already seen one round before, and their singing skills can't be compared to you, Boss Tao!"
After hearing Song San's words, Tao Rong didn't feel any more relaxed, but simply nodded and became more focused, carefully examining the script.
Song San cast another glance at Tao Rong before reluctantly entering the recording studio, constantly turning his head back a few times along the way.
When Lian Juesheng said that he wanted Lin Tianye to arrive at the AE Building early in the morning, he was extremely reluctant.
When Lin Xiaotian, the King, arrived, he found that even Jue Sheng was nowhere to be found, which made him furious.
"Master, please calm down! Master, please calm down!" Lin Tianye's cousin and assistant, Jiang Luolei, saw that his expression was off and quickly spoke up to comfort him.
"Okay! Lian Juesheng, that brat, called crying and begging for my help. Where is he? Where?!" Lin Tianye gritted his teeth and growled. The movie "Garden Party" took nearly a year to finish filming. Finally, he had a vacation, but now the director called him back. If it weren't for his good reputation, he would have flipped the table long ago.
People sitting on the side waiting for the sound test all lifted their heads and looked at the newcomer, Lin Tianye. They had expressions of excitement or astonishment. Only Tao Rong kept his head buried in the script, completely unaware.
Although Lin Tianye was annoyed, he always took his work seriously, so for now, all he could do was wait.
After sending Jiang Luolei off to buy breakfast, Lin Tianye looked around and began to find a seat.
The AE Building is the headquarters of Yaxing. As the popular young actor of Yaxing, Lin Tianye has his own rest room. However, Lian Juesheng, that kid, is always unpredictable. If he finds out that Lin Tianye didn't wait for him and went to the rest room, he will definitely complain for a long time in a strange manner, even though he was the one who disappeared first.
The people over there have such eager eyes. They'll probably ask non-stop. Not good.
These few people over here have such strong hostility. Will they become an obstacle for me? No, no, that won't do.
Hey! There's an impressive old man here practicing Tai Chi!
"Sir, may I sit next to you..."
As "Da Ye" raised his head, a young and youthful face came into view. It was none other than Tao Rong.
Having been in the entertainment industry for so many years, Lin Tianye had seen his fair share of handsome men and beautiful women, but someone like Tao Rong was truly a first. Lin Tianye couldn't find the right words to describe him; it wasn't that he was extremely handsome, but every feature on his face felt comfortable, and just sitting there, he exuded an otherworldly aura. This young man evidently hadn't fully grown up yet, but he possessed a remarkably composed temperament and showed no signs of weakness when facing Lin Tianye.
"Sit down, good child," Tao Rong glanced at Lin Tianye and replied, then lowered his head to continue reading the script.
Lin Tianye's face turned red instantly. He awkwardly sat down, unable to refute the fact that someone had taken advantage of him. After all, it was his fault for making the first mistake.
The sound test started quite quickly. Before Jiang Luolei returned, the staff had already called Lin Tianye's name, signaling him to enter the room.
Lin Tianye originally wanted to greet the young man next to him, but he found out that the other person was not even looking at him. So he closed his mouth and walked straight out of the door.
As soon as Lin Tianye left, the waiting room turned into chaos.
Why did Lin Tianwang come too? He played Su Sheng in "The Garden Party"! I've seen his promotional photos!
"Lin Tianye is so handsome, exuding a superstar aura with every move he makes."
Lin Tianye is so lucky. He is the young master of Ya Xing. How can they not flatter him?
At first, it was just whispering, but later the voices grew louder and all the audition actors started discussing it with great excitement. It's clear that Lin Tianye's arrival has made quite an impact on everyone.
Hello, my name is Liang Ci. I've come to try out for Li Yingxue," a young and adorable boy approached Tao Rong and spoke.
"Hello, Tao Rong. Come and try Su Sheng's." Tao Rong nodded and responded.
Upon hearing that the two of them were not in a competitive relationship, Liang Ci's expression immediately became lively. He said, "Oh? What did Lin Xiaotian say to you just now?"
"It's nothing, just offering greetings," Tao Rong politely replied.
The boy's face was full of incredulity. "I overheard your conversation. Did he call you 'big brother'? Tsk tsk, everyone said Lin Tianye doesn't have an ego, but it seems he's not that great after all."
Tao Rong looked at him, blinked his eyes, and said nothing.
"You hit him back with a good one! Crush his arrogance! I really dislike these arrogant and wealthy second-generation heirs. Isn't he just the son of the chairman of Yaxing? With such a prominent background, how could he not be popular?"
Tao Rong covered one cheek with his hand, his eyes still fixed on Liang Tianci.
I heard that Lian Dao and Lin Tianye are childhood friends. Prearranged roles. I wonder how the situation will turn out when the movie is released. He's just someone who relied on connections, what kind of acting can he do... Tao Rong, why are you continuously rubbing your own face?
"Oh, it's nothing." Tao Rong continued to rub, "The sour flavor was too strong, and it hurt my teeth."
"You!" Liang Ci's face turned red with anger. He stood up and walked away, no longer paying any attention to Tao Rong.
