Nina gold stooped to her feet, light footed and nimble, to avoid making noise and disrupting the quiet in the theatre. She doesn't want to get up if it's not necessary. As the casting director of les miserables, she doesn't want to leave at will; But her stomach is really uncomfortable. She needs to go to the bathroom to solve it.

Leaving her seat, Nina quickly steps towards the right-hand bathroom. Although today's audition is held in the theater, and the process completely follows the audition mode of drama; But the lights inside the theater did not all go out. You can still see the actors sitting in the back half of the seats on the first floor. They are quietly waiting for the next audition.

Nina glanced at the past without any pause and headed straight for her destination. But the next second, her hasty steps suddenly stopped. The deep red carpet absorbed the trivial noise. Nina turned her head again and looked in the direction she had just remembered, Then I saw an unexpected and familiar face in the crowd.

"Lan Li?"

The cry of surprise blurted out, almost unable to hide Nina's inner shock.

Nina's surprise is not that lanli himself, but that lanli appears in such a calm and low-key way. In the London audition of les miserables, the most eye-catching candidate is no doubt Langley hall.

In the past two years, this new generation actor has been constantly shining in North America. He has attracted much attention. His strength and appearance are arduous, and his artistic skills and box office calls are in parallel; What is more valuable is that he has always been down-to-earth, not arrogant and impetuous, and has maintained a pure heart to polish his acting skills, which is admirable.

This time, the audition to challenge the "tragic world" and return to the basic skills of drama undoubtedly attracted a lot of attention.

Even the "les miserables" crew is no exception. They are curious, picky and expectant. Nina is one of them. What Nina is most concerned about is, what is the absolute strength of this legendary new actor with orthodox academic background?

The stage is not a movie. There is no filtering bonus of the lens, no editing control of the director, and no repeated consideration of the set. The basic skills and absolute strength of the actors will be displayed on the stage. So, in the past two years, what are the praises, real materials or embroidered pillows?

Almost everyone is looking forward to the answer to the question.

However, before this morning's audition, Langley and the "tomorrow's edge" crew are shooting in Trafalgar Square, so Langley can only attend the audition in the afternoon, and maybe even slightly later than expected due to the shooting progress of the film. Andy and "les miserables" crew had a detailed discussion and got an understanding.

Nina originally thought that lanli's appearance would be full of excitement. In the previous audition in New York, Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe and others were like this. Even the main creators of the cast would circle around lenley. However, lanli appeared quietly. There was no movement, no sound, no cheering or even being late. He appeared in the theater completely according to the appointment time, and then sat in the audience as an ordinary actor, patiently waiting with other actors.

If Nina didn't accidentally need to go to the bathroom, no one would have noticed the appearance of lanli. This... This is so unexpected that Nina lost her temper.

After she blurted out, Nina realized her mistake and said, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. You go on. " He turned his head and looked at Lan Li in front of him again. He was still surprised that he was down-to-earth. This is the only idea in Nina's mind now. Lan Li, who has been sought after by countless media and loved by countless fans, is so low-key and so young!

I couldn't help but smile on my face.

There wasn't much noise in the theater, just a moment's pause, but it wasn't very good for Eddie on stage.

Ready, ready to go; Suddenly interrupted, in a trance. In a flash, one breath stuck in the chest, can't spit out, but can't swallow, the tension suddenly surged up, so that the muscles began to stiffen involuntarily, the performance state was stuck in a strange place.

Eddie sat on the chair, but he couldn't find a landing place. He was agitated and flustered. He turned his head. Then he found that all the crew members in the front row had shifted their eyes. They turned their heads to the rear in different positions, just like the spotlight during the performance, Without warning, he moved from the stage to the audience, and the whole audience's attention shifted with him.

But for Eddie, who is standing in the middle of the stage, it's a disaster: before the performance starts, all the attention has been lost.

Damn it! Grandstanding guy!

Langley hall, Langley hall, Langley hall. It's Langley hall again.

He is also in the upper class circle. Even though there is no intersection in his life circle, he is also born in Eton University, Cambridge University, and even wallowing in the west end of London. He has heard a lot from time to time. The name "Langley hall" is no stranger to Eddie.

But all along, Eddie has no feelings for the name, no joy, no sorrow, no dislike, no dislike. Two people are two parallel lines. During the school period, the difference between the two people's ages is seven years old and they completely miss it; During their stay in the west end of London, they had different careers, different plays and never met each other. It can be said that there was no intersection between them, so naturally there was no feeling.

Even though both of them are actors, in London, with Eddie's elite background, there are not many of them who break down the barriers and join the ranks of actors. It's just that Langley's "noble" status is a little special. Both sides are strangers to each other.

That changed three years ago. First "buried alive", then "crazy love", and then "speed and passion 5", the name of Langley hall gradually spread back to London, causing waves in the drama circle, especially last summer, which even attracted the attention of all.

Everyone is talking about lanli, everyone is paying attention to lanli. It seems that, overnight, Langley became "the representative of a certain class of actors", which is ridiculous. Have you not spent enough time in the west end of London, have not experienced enough experience in the basic skills of drama, or even have not played in a formal West End drama, and have you thrown yourself into Hollywood? For traditional academic actors, it's a disgrace - a disgrace of lowering the head and bending over to Hollywood.

Don't you see, after Keira Knightley became famous with "Pirates of the Caribbean", the first thing she did was to return to the west end of London, return to the stage and polish her acting skills down to earth. And Langley? It's just a clown who has lost tradition, dignity and pride, and equates actors with actors.

Eddie doesn't talk about people behind their backs, but they do.

Young actors with the same upper class background, the same educational background, the same working experience in Hollywood, and the same generation of birth, more or less compare Eddie with Langley in the sight of coming and going, and even some people rudely ask Eddie in person, "how do you feel seeing Langley's success?" It bothers Eddie a lot.

Eddie doesn't like Langley. It's not because they have any personal feuds, it's just that they don't like this kind of idol actor who hasn't been polished and tempered - the whole London Academy actors don't like it, and those old scholars even more don't like it; Just don't like his hard work and hard work are ignored, simply put together roughly - every down-to-earth with strength to break out of the sky actors will not like.

However, he has his pride, and will never speak ill of others behind his back, even an unrelated stranger. But today, it's lanli again. Before his audition, he was interrupted by lanli? This is outrageous!

The anger was so sudden, so intense that his muscles tightened uncontrollably, but Eddie knew he couldn't be distracted at this time, and the audition had to go on. It's a tough time, and it's also a time to prove his strength. In the theater, anything can happen, and he shouldn't lose his sense of propriety because of a little noise.

But, a "blue gift", it's not just noise.

Take a deep breath, exhale deeply and exhale for a long time. Many years of stage experience made Eddie quickly calm down and get into the state again. Then he raised his eyes and focused on the stage. He looked at the lights around him with the residual light of his eyes and waited for the signal of audition. But it is clear that there is still some confusion at the theatre.

The crew members sitting in the front area, one by one, reluctantly turn their heads and look back, as if lanli has three heads and six arms - under the constant praise and bombardment of the media, maybe lanli does have three heads and six arms; What's more, Cameron mackintosh stands up and strides towards the audience behind him. The actors waiting for the audition make a dull noise.

It's not the noise, it's the sound of low syllable fragments, always before the theater starts. For the actors in the west end, Cameron means both legend and superstar. It's hard for everyone to hide their excitement.

Even if Cameron didn't make a sound, even if there was no noise, the spotlight still shrouded on the stage, but the attention was quietly and irresistibly shifted.

Eddie can't help clenching his fist, clenching it again. His bald nails fell into the palm of his hand.
