Chapter 417 Ways to Close the Distance
English is very fluent, just like his mother tongue. Although he was a little nervous when he came in, at that time, his right hand was waving, but his left hand was clenched by his side. However, after Chen Jin asked, he let go and adapted quickly.
He is smart and not has stage fright. He is like a little adult. Although he pretends to be an adult, he is very cute. After looking at him for a while, when the little guy was nervous again, Chen Jin finally smiled and asked, "What's your name?" This time I asked in Cantonese.
Surprisingly, the little guy actually began to stutter. Obviously, he is not proficient in Cantonese. "My Chinese name is Ning Xiaotian, and my English name is Roy."
Chen Jin nodded and asked with a smile, "Can you tell me now what you are doing here to sign?" Ning Xiaotian also smiled, scratched his head again, and released his dulness. "No, I'm really here to sign up. You are my idol, and I also want to be a big star like you."
"But do you know that acting will be very hard, and it is also not free to be a big star. Even if you go out to buy something, you may be pestered. Don't you feel annoyed?" Chen Jin asked him questions boredly, but he wanted to see his reactions.
"That should be cool and dazzling, right? Why is it annoying?" Ning Xiaotian finally showed the idea that he was commensurate with his age. Chen Jin did not deny his idea. These things were what he saw and felt had been buried in his heart. It was impossible for outsiders to change them easily. The only way was to let him experience all that by himself and then wake up.
Asked him a few questions and began to have a simple audition. Surprisingly, this little guy was full of camera sense at a young age. To be honest, Chen Jin, another time and space-time man, was 30 years old and was said by the director that he had no camera sense, which was depressing to think about it.
At the same time, he also knew the specific information of Ning Xiaotian. This boy was three generations of foreigners. His grandfather came to New York during the period of the Republic of China. These little children have been talking about English since they were young. On the contrary, their Chinese is very bad. The reason why he has the current level is also due to the environment that he has returned to Hong Kong Island for more than half a year. There are few children around who can understand and speak English. He looks stupid. In fact, he is a guy who likes to play with others.
With the appearance of this little guy, Chen Jin has more expectations for the next children. However, he is just looking forward to it. In fact, there are not many children in the world, especially on Hong Kong Island, who can speak English and perform spiritually.
Of course, I found the hero, and he is a Chinese, which is very good for Chen Jin. If you cultivate him well, this boy will definitely become a dazzling star in Hollywood in the future.
From Hong Kong Island to the United Kingdom, he turned around and returned to New York. What he gained was Ning Xiaotian alone. In fact, there were two young men in the United Kingdom. However, based on the requirements of their parents, Chen Jin simply gave up. By the way, what he thought before was probably to have a few more Chinese actors to participate. If not, then it's better to find them all in the United States. It's much more convenient. There are many young actors in the United States.
Now there has been a harvest, which is also a success. After returning to New York, the final draft began. After all the selected little guys passed the language barrier and the first interview, no matter where they were in the United States, Jinchen Group provided three people to and from New York. There is a cost of eating and drinking. Let's come to New York for the final interview together. Naturally, the interviewer is Chen Jin.
Language is really not a condition in the United States. This is their mother tongue. However, in the final selection in 51 states, only less than 200 people were selected. After all, performance is not a very simple thing.
As the final interviewer, Chen Jin is naturally confident in choosing the best. He has enough experience, and his six knowledge is very keen, and he can always find the best candidate as soon as possible. He believes that there is nothing better in the world than him.
In addition to Ning Xiaotian's determination to play the leading role of the leading actor, Enlak, that is, the original Harry Potter, Chen Jin also has to find three men and two women. Although the most important roles in Harry Potter are Harry Potter, Hermione and Ron, there are also three supporting roles, Ginny, Malfoy and Lombard are more important and consistent. Wear the role all the time.
Now, in addition to Harry Potter's name to Enlac, Hermione has changed her name to Catherine, Ron's name has changed her name to David, Ginny's name has been changed to Kris, Malfoy has changed her name to Todd, and Lombardton has changed her name to Ritter.
Chen Jin's requirements are actually not high, but not too stage fright. It's good to have spirituality. This is a children's movie. It's really can't talk about acting skills at all. It's just the plot and special effects, which is the key to the success of the film.
On the first day, Chen Jin found several that he thought were appropriate at the beginning, and then he realized that it might be necessary to raise the requirements. Otherwise, he decided at the beginning that he might miss some better ones. Therefore, he was going to spend more time meeting all the one hundred and twenty candidates once, and then make the final decision. It's sure.
After a busy day, he only met the top 100, but in the evening, he had to audition for Michael Jackson, who acted quickly, for their first cooperation.
There is no doubt that this is also very interesting to Chen Jin. Anyway, Michael Jackson is a real super king. To be honest, if you don't like him, just go to his concert or watch his famous "dangerous concert" on the Internet, you are likely to fall in love with it immediately. Dude, it's really crazy and dangerous. It's really true to watch the scene when you're not in good health.
Michael Jackson's team is extremely efficient. After his order, almost the most important items he needed arrived in New York at the first time. Fortunately, there are not many employees of Jinchen Group now, and there are still one or two rooms in the office of tens of thousands of square meters to temporarily empty his things.
Everyone has what they are used to, which may not be the best, but it must be his favorite, such as Mai, such as guitar, even piano, etc. Holding his most familiar favorite, he has a special feeling, especially for a singer.
When she arrived at the company, Chen Zichen said that Michael Jackson had been knocking on it for almost a day, and there was no intention of being tired at all. Fortunately, the company's sound insulation was good, especially in the video studio. As soon as the door was closed, no one could hear the movement inside even if you demolished the house.
Chen Jin smiled and kissed Chen Zichen's pink lips. "The more successful the guy is, the more crazy I won't accompany you to dinner today. I'll go up and see what's going on." After saying that, he picked up the super delicious dinner prepared by himself and went upstairs.
Chen Jin vacated the room next to his studio for musical instruments for Michael Jackson to place his personal belongings. Chen Jin just came back and didn't have time to look at it before. He opened the door and found that there was a hole in it. It looked a little messy, but there was a strange order. This or Maybe only a keen person like him can feel it.
"Hi, Michael, don't you have to have dinner?" Chen Jinyang took a few food baskets in Yang's hand, in which there were seven or eight large boxes. By the way, for a playboy who never gets tired of eating, it is a very, very, very, very important thing to eat like a beautiful woman.
Michael Jackson had long seen Chen Jin come in, but he was still busy with his affairs. He knocked here and there. He was not in a hurry to greet Chen Jin. Hearing Chen Jin's greeting, he frowned and looked at his watch. "Dinner, it's only 6:30 now. Don't you think it's too early? Moreover, you should When you know how to record songs, it's better for poor guys like us to eat less.
Chen Jin smiled and watched him pound over there. He put the food basket aside, sat on the piano and played it. Then he picked up the guitar and played it. Then the chair turned to the side of the saxophone, copied it up and blew it, and then shrugged his shoulders. Instead of showing off, he said, "Michael, is this your rule? "?"
Michael Jackson was looking at him while he was playing the piano. At this time, his eyes lit up, "Well, do you know my habits? This is really rare. Many people say that my studio is messy."
Chen Jin shrugged his shoulders and laughed, "Look, this is my strength. I can always find the rules and beauty that others don't know."
Michael Jackson just smiled, and Chen Jin ignored him. He picked up the food basket on the seat, arranged the eight large boxes inside one by one, and then opened them one by one.
In an instant, the room was full of delicious food and fragrance, which immediately attracted Michael Jackson's attention. Chen Jin ignored him and ate it by himself. He didn't eat it deliberately. He just ate it very pleasantly, which was made by himself in the morning.
Do it yourself with enough food and clothing. What's more, there is a big beauty who said that she wanted to eat the dishes he cooked, eight large boxes, seven dishes, one soup, and two rice. Originally, the other one was for the popular king. Unfortunately, he didn't want it, but Chen Jin, a foodie, had no problem eating two.
The seven dishes are twice-cooked pork, Kung Pao chicken, cold beef, braised fish cubes, spicy diced shrimp, vinegared cabbage and a spicy shredded potato, plus a tomato, seaweed egg soup. By the way, it's really rich. If it hadn't been prepared for the king, Playboy wouldn't have been so luxurious.
He ate alone for about two minutes. Michael Jackson came over and stared at the seven dishes on the seat for a long time. His throat knot shrugged, and then asked, "Are these all Chinese food, but it looks different from what I've eaten before."
Chen Jin smiled, picked up the prepared knife and fork and handed it to him, "Try it, maybe you will like them." Then they introduced everything one by one. At this time, Michael Jackson couldn't help inserting a piece of cold beef that was most familiar to him.
Someone said that no matter who he is, as long as he has tasted the dishes cooked by Chen Jin, he will be immediately fascinated by him. The dishes he cooks are just like him. They are so beautiful that people can't bear to part with them at first sight.
From the first piece of beef to tasting everything with a knife, fork and spoon, Michael Jackson has taken a chair and sat down, muttering, "You guy, don't you know how to invite guests to enjoy it when you eat?" After saying that, they looked at Chen Jin, and both of them laughed.
The wind swept the clouds and the clouds. As soon as they were staggered, the two of them finished eating happily. Michael Jackson touched his stomach and shrugged his shoulders helplessly. "I think I ate a little too much. There should be no way to record tonight."
Chen Jin smiled and said, "I don't think we should be entangled in this day. Enjoying delicious food is also enjoying life. We just enjoyed life. Isn't this the best moment in our lives!"
Michael Jackson glanced at Chen Jin and said with a long smile, "No wonder you can be a screenwriter," and pointed to the big box on the seat. "Well, where did you order these? I think it's really delicious. I think I should try more next time."
Chen Jin smiled and pointed to himself, "You may have questions, but I really did it myself." Michael Jackson's eyes widened and his face was unbelievable. After a while, he said, "Well, you are indeed an amazing guy,"
He looked embarrassed again, "However, I'm very distressed now, that is, the next time you have dinner, do you want to call me, or it's better for you to eat it secretly before coming up."
The recording that night was cancelled, but on the first day, they were looking for feelings. The two people looked for tacit understanding, understood each other and adapted to each other at the same time. Perhaps it can be said that it was that meal that made the two people more close, which was much better than directly coming up to record, and the two people slowly running in. .
People are like this. It is easiest to find a sense of closeness in life, and at work, there is more alienation, which may be the most fundamental reason for the wine table culture.
The next morning, the reason why the interview venue in Battery Park was placed here was to better see the most natural and positive side of the little guys. In the office, although there may be more test factors, the depressed environment will hide their most real side. Perhaps it is a difference between Chen Jin and other directors when choosing actors.
I looked at more than a dozen, but they were not very excellent. At this time, a little girl came in. She was very beautiful and elegant. She was not nervous at all. She was still graceful when she walked. Although she pretended a little, she was a little interesting.
At first glance, Chen Jin felt that the little girl was good, but what was next to him said in his ear, "This little guy came from an acting school and has also participated in a small-made movie this year."
Chen Jin nodded and also lowered his head to open the little girl's registration form. The first thing he saw was the little girl's name. At that moment, he immediately widened his eyes and carefully looked at the little girl standing two meters away in front of him. It was really a little similar.
