Work came very quickly.
That night, Kim Si-moo received the audition script from Jeong Jae-seok, titled " When You Sleep."
This was a suspense romance drama that SSS planned to release early next year. It told the story of a woman who predicted future unfortunate events based on her dreams and a prosecutor who fought alone to prevent the nightmare from becoming reality.
Jin Shimu was fighting for the role of the male lead, Ding Zaican, a prosecutor who was sometimes childish and sometimes mature and considerate.
Although this role did not seem to have a particularly high demand for the actor's acting skills, Jin Shimu did not dare to slack off. He spent the next few days studying the script attentively.
When Jeong Jae Suk gave him the script, he said that the competition for the male lead of this drama was very fierce. The company knew that there were Lee Jong-Suk, Lee Seung Ki, Lee Dong Wook, and others. Compared to these people, Kim Sim Muk probably had no other advantage except for the low pay. He could only do his best and leave it to fate.
...
Three days later, in an office in the SSS Prism Tower in the cave.
After the first round of auditions, Lee Jong-Suk, a famous actor of the new generation in China, walked out of the room. He was born in 1989 and was only 25 years old this year. He had already been nominated for the TV series " I Hear Your Voice " last year. He was in the limelight and was second to none.
Moreover, in terms of acting skills alone, Lee Jong-Suk was much better than his peers. He was considered a rare " young fresh meat ", so director Wu Zhonghuan was quite satisfied with him. After the audition, he specially exchanged contact information with him.
After Lee Jongshuo left, Woo Chung-Hwan chatted with the producer, Kim Min-Woon, while casually looking at the resume of the next interviewee.
"Jin Shimu?"
"Newbie? The appearance is not bad."
Looking at the works below, Wu Zhonghuan remembered the role of Qian Yuncai in " Star You " and had a preliminary impression of Jin Shimu.
At that moment, a crisp knock on the door was heard.
"Please come in!" Wu Zhonghuan raised his head and shouted.
The next second, the door opened and Jin Shimu walked in.
Dressed in light casual clothes, his appearance was not much different from the photo on his resume. His clear eyes, slender nose bridge, and well-defined lips gave people the impression of being handsome at first glance. However, after a closer look, it was easy to discover another kind of temperament that he exuded-cleanliness! Be it her eyes or her skin, she was clean from the inside out!
It was a comfortable feeling, but Kim Sze-mok had just graduated from high school. Although he looked more mature than his peers, it was still a little far-fetched to play the role of the 29-year-old Jeong Jae Can.
Therefore, Wu Zhonghuan's expression was not very bright.
"Hello, I'm the new actor, Jin Shimu. I'm here for the audition.”Jin Shimu did not care about the two people in the room sizing him up. He walked to a position two meters away from the table and bowed to greet them. Then, he stood where he was neither servile nor overbearing.
This indifferent temperament made Wu Zhonghuan secretly nod in his heart.
"Cough!" A moment later, Wu Zhonghuan coughed lightly and said,"Hello, I'm director Wu Zhonghuan, and this is producer Jin Minyun.”
Jin Shimu lowered his head again.
"Let me ask, are you going to audition for the male lead?”Wu Zhonghuan glanced at the age column on Jin Shimu's resume and could not help but ask.
It couldn't be helped. The age gap was there. One was a teenager who had just graduated from high school, while the other was a young man who had already experienced the hardships of the workplace. There was an almost insurmountable gap between the two.
"Inside!" Jin Shimu answered with certainty.
Wu Zhonghuan frowned without batting an eyelid, feeling a little troubled. In fact, with Kim Shimu's acting skills in " Star You " and his outstanding appearance, Wu Zhonghuan had intended to arrange a supporting role for him, but he had come to audition for the male lead.
Jin Shimu saw the sudden silence and understood the other party's concerns, so he took the initiative to say,"Please give me a chance. I just want to fight for it!”
Wu Zhonghuan raised his head and met his firm gaze. He could not help but be moved.
"Then try it out. The scene where Ding Zai Can moves to deliver the New Year Cake.”Wu Zhonghuan picked up the script beside him and casually flipped through a page before giving Jin Shimu the audition scenes.
"Inside." Jin Shimu naturally remembered this scene. After taking a deep breath, he immersed himself in the performance.
First, he pretended to drag the plate with one hand and walked a few steps forward. He stopped in front of the " door " and rang the doorbell. At this time, he still had an impatient expression on his face. Then, as if the walkie-talkie was connected, Jin Shimu instantly changed his expression. With a sincere smile, he put his hands on the plate. I just moved in from next door today."
Jin Shimu's eyebrows twitched when he was rejected by the owner of the house. His face was filled with shock and disbelief.
“OK!”Wu Zhonghuan called for a cut at the right time. His eyes were filled with surprise and surprise. He did not expect Jin Shimu's acting skills to improve so much compared to " Star You." In just a few seconds, he had grasped the two emotions very well. He did not have the deliberate and childish nature of a newcomer actor at all.
"Let's do another scene." Wu Zhonghuan flipped through a few pages of the script and continued,""In this part of the story, Ding Zai Can saw Nan Hong Zhu fall from a building and die in his dream.”
"Inside." Jin Shimu knew that the director was a little interested in him. He did not dare to relax and continued to devote himself to the brewing of feelings.
“...”
"Not bad, let's do another one."
"Very good, try this part again."
"The part just now seemed a little short. I'll find another part for you.”
“...”
In just a few minutes, Jin Shimu's impression of Wu Zhonghuan had changed drastically.
This was a very good seedling! Wu Zhonghuan trusted his own judgment. However, even though he believed it, he didn't think that Kim Siki was more suitable for the role of Jeong Jae Can than Lee Jongshuo. The difference in acting skills wasn't big, but the key was the compatibility of the characters!
After the interview, before Jin Shimu left, Wu Zhonghuan could not help but ask again,""Shi Mu, are you really only considering the male lead?”
Jin Shimu was stunned for a moment before he gave the same answer as before,""Inside."
"Alright, I understand." Wu Zhonghuan could not help but sigh regretfully. Then, he nodded and said to Jin Shimu,"Go back and wait for the news. I hope you can be mentally prepared.”
"Thank you, director." Although Jin Shimu had already understood the other party's subtext, he did not show any disappointment or loneliness on his face. After saying goodbye again, he turned around and walked out of the room, carefully closing the door.
