Chapter 122 Casting Results
The casting results were personally brought to the training base by Bai Li.
If you count the time, it's been a long time since she last came.
As soon as she stepped into the training base, the staff quickly came to greet her with great enthusiasm, exchanging pleasantries with Bai Li respectfully while leading her towards the training ground.
The two stopped not far from the training ground and quietly observed the young people's training.
Without a doubt, this is a place full of dreams and hard work.
At this moment, on the playground, a group of young people are training by running laps with their leader.
The leader in charge of breaking the wind was none other than Zhong Wu. Zhong Wu even had heavy sandbags hanging from his legs as he ran lap after lap along the track. Sweat soaked through his clothes, outlining his increasingly robust physique.
According to the medical center's report, Zhong Wu's old back injury has greatly improved, and it seems that this is indeed the case.
The others followed behind Zhong Wu, running one by one, as if accompanied by the whooshing sound of the wind. Their steps were neat and powerful, and not a single person fell behind.
That familiar yet unfamiliar feeling washed over me.
What's familiar is the vibrant atmosphere here, but what's unfamiliar are the completely new faces before me.
Almost everyone's appearance score increased from its original level, with some gaining 1 or 2 points and others gaining as many as 5 or 6 points.
Perhaps due to other specialized training, their once somewhat immature faces have become more resolute and confident, and their figures have become more upright and agile. Most importantly, everyone's spirit and energy are excellent.
Bai Li: ...
The training at the base was entirely handled by a professional team. Bai Li hadn't paid much attention to or interfered with it before, and she really hadn't expected the results to be so good.
Several of the people we recruited before scored below 80 points in appearance, hovering around the passing mark of 80 points, but now they have all reached over 80 points.
Bai Li was full of surprise and couldn't help but ask, "How do you usually train?"
When the big boss comes to inspect the work, we must do our best to make a good impression. The staff patiently introduced to Bai Li: "President Bai, to be honest, our training plan is strictly based on the candidates for the actor in 'Asking the Immortal'. In addition to the most basic physical training, there are also professional acting and physical courses, etc. Without affecting the group broadcast, there will also be some practical shooting scenes."
After listening to the detailed training plan, Bai Li asked with concern, "Has everyone gotten enough rest?"
The person in charge immediately confirmed: "Of course, diet and rest are also our top priorities. The nutritionist plans three meals a day to ensure a balanced diet, and the strict schedule allows them to maintain their best condition."
Bai Li nodded slightly: "No wonder it has changed so much, it seems they have all put in a lot of hard work."
------------------------------
"Huh? Training ended so early today?" Chu Xianxian asked, puzzled.
Zhong Wu succinctly reminded them: "The casting results."
In fact, most people have already guessed that it is related to the casting results.
Upon seeing all the staff at the base, and Shirai appearing at the base surrounded by people.
Zhong Wu knew that his guess was probably pretty close to the truth.
Bai Li had only been watching from afar, but now that she was closer, she felt that Chu Xianxian had changed the most.
Chu Xianxian's fiery red hair had been completely dyed back to its original black, losing much of its flamboyant feel.
When he first entered the training camp, he was a bit thin, but after the camp's body management, he has developed beautiful muscles.
Moreover, he used to have a slight hunchback and lacked in demeanor, but now all of these weaknesses have disappeared. It's as if he has shed a layer of immaturity and has become more confident in his every move.
Her personality remained as cheerful as ever; her eyes lit up the moment she saw Bai Li, and she waved and greeted her warmly, "President Bai~~~"
Her voice is as sweet as it can be.
I don't know why, but the moment I see Chu Xianxian, I feel like my mood improves.
Bai Li smiled and waved, then looked at the others.
Zhong Wu was watching her from the side at that moment, and Bai Li's eyes met his the instant she turned around.
Zhong Wu's originally deep eyes became even more expressive, and his thin lips slightly upturned beneath his high nose.
He used to be bald, but now his hair has grown out a lot, neat and stylish, perfectly highlighting his three-dimensional facial features. His overall temperament is that of simple, handsome, and rugged.
Previously, he might have seemed quite dejected due to his old ailments, but now that his old ailments have been gradually cured, he seems to have been cleansed of all his dust and looks much "new".
He calmly greeted Bai Li the moment their eyes met.
Besides these familiar faces who joined the training base from the beginning.
Bai Li discovered that there were many people she didn't recognize, who must have been recruited later. Today was also her first time meeting them.
Bai Li greeted them one by one, chatted casually, and got to know them briefly.
They were all carefully selected from thousands of interviewees. Next to each beautiful face was another beautiful face. The scene could be described as "a hundred flowers blooming in competition".
Otherwise, why would the company's monthly active user revenue and revenue from live streaming be number one every month?
With such a group of money-making machines, how can we not make money?
At this moment, a series of announcements about increased favorability scores rang out from the background.
Not only can you make money, but you can also increase your favorability points!
Very good, very good, another fresh batch of "leeks" (a metaphor for being exploited).
Bai Li was very satisfied.
After reaping this harvest, I can go home and have another good draw in the Wheel of Fortune.
------------------------------
Immediately afterwards, Shirai began to announce the final casting results.
They started announcing roles from minor characters all the way up to the main characters.
Some roles were decided without any suspense regarding who would get them.
For example, Zhong Wu is undoubtedly the perfect choice to play the role of Xuan Yi, the righteous yet wicked drunken monk in "Asking the Immortals".
In the original work, Xuan Yi is tall and always wears his monk's robe casually. When he appears, he is surrounded by the rich aroma of wine and meat. He ignores worldly views and the constraints of rules, and walks freely in the hustle and bustle of the city, drinking and eating heartily in the noisy taverns.
Despite his seemingly unrestrained and dissolute lifestyle, he possessed a transcendent Buddhist nature.
He wavers between detachment and engagement with the world, and moves between compassion and sharpness.
He possesses both the compassion of a monk and the boldness and ruthlessness of a江湖人 (jianghu person, a person who lives and breathes the martial arts world).
His existence is another concrete manifestation of Buddhism.
Zhong Wu possesses both the composure of a mature man and a subtle ruthlessness.
His gaze was sometimes deep and calm, sometimes sharp as a knife, perfectly matching Xuan Yi's complex and multifaceted image.
That's perfect.
So, unsurprisingly, it was chosen by a large margin.
As for the other roles that several people were competing for at the same time, the announcement of the results was quite nerve-wracking.
There are so many beautiful children, but only a few roles, so in the end, some will be happy and some will be sad.
Zhang Yu successfully landed the role that best suited him—Ye Shang.
As he said, he can do it if he wants to.
The moment the results were announced, Bai Li clearly saw several other people in the room looking dejected.
Ye Shang is undoubtedly a popular character, with many people vying for the role.
Anyone who has gone through so much training and invested so much time and energy to improve themselves, only to be told that they have missed out, would feel frustrated, sad, and discouraged.
It's not that they aren't good enough, it's just that someone else is more suitable right now.
This is reality, and it's cruel.
