"What? You were chosen to be the lead actor in the movie?"

Arthur Hopkins stared at Old Huo sitting on the sofa with some incredulity.

"Yes, Director Demi just called me. However, it hasn't been finalized yet, and I need to audition again tomorrow. ”

Old Huo Yang raised the phone in his hand.

"Director Demi? or the one from before?"

"Yes, that's him!"

"How is that possible...... Didn't you say you weren't selected?"

Arthur still couldn't believe it.

A few days ago, my dad followed his gang of people from the Association of Acting Lovers to audition on the set, but he was brushed up.

Today, as soon as I got home, I saw Lao Huo excitedly telling him that he had been selected as the leading actor.

My father, an eighty-year-old man in his seventies and eighty years old, had no acting experience before, so how could he be the actor in a movie?

"Last time, I was a supporting role, but I didn't choose. This time it's the main character. ”

Lao Huo said.

What？

Arthur stared at him even more.

The supporting roles were not selected, but the protagonist was chosen?

"What do you mean by that?"

Lao Huo looked at him, "What, don't believe that your father and I have this strength?"

"It's not...... Mainly......"

Arthur looked at him, "I really don't believe ......"

A seventy-year-old man came to him and said that he was going to be the protagonist of the movie, just this old arm and legs, and he was still the protagonist of the movie...... Is it so easy to be the protagonist of a movie now?

"Daddy, you're not going to be deceived, are you?"

Arthur guessed, "Did they ask you to post any deposit, or something?"

He works in a publishing house, and recently he often hears about a lot of old men and old ladies who have money, what they want to invest, and pay a deposit. To be honest, it's cutting leeks.

This group of old men and old ladies seemed to have nothing to do, and they didn't know what economic means, and they heard about a fund with a return of tens or hundreds of percent, and they still made a steady profit without losing money, so they bought it directly, and they were afraid of being robbed.

Really, Warren Buffett has been busy for a year, and his income is only more than 20 percent, and they actually exceed 100 percent? Is it possible? I am afraid that after buying leeks from the vegetable market on the front foot, the leeks will be cut by the stock fund market when the back foot comes out.

Two days ago, about Buffett's joke, there was an old lady who was deceived, and she refuted there that Buffett didn't make so much because he didn't buy this fund......

At that time, Arthur still felt.

But now, has this actually started to use the film fund to cut leeks?

"What to give!"

Lao Huo glared at him, "Anyway, after the audition tomorrow, the contract will be signed, if you don't worry, you can follow me!"

Arthur looked at his father.

Although he is a baker, he has followed him and read a lot of books over the years, and he is shrewd, not like he can be fooled into buying any fund casually.

Could it be that he was really chosen as the main character?

Going to act in a movie?

After watching the performance theory for two months, you can go directly to be the leading actor?

Arthur knows that there are many performance theory books translated from the East in the West, and their Hill Publishing Group regards this book as a key project of the year, and it has been on sale for more than half a year, and it has sold more than three million copies in at least the United States!

This is a very brilliant, even unprecedented, book of performance theory.

This Arthur admitted.

Although he basically didn't see it.

However, after watching it for two months, my father can go directly to be the leading actor?

How is this possible?

If that's the case, then even the actors in this world are worthless?

Could it be that his father really has a talent for acting?

"Old Huo, why don't you get up and give me a try? ”

Arthur looked at his father and said.

"No, it won't. ”

Lao Huo said.

"Aren't you the protagonist chosen?"

"Do you have to be a protagonist to be able to know Hamlet?"

"Yes...... By the way, Daddy, what kind of character did they give you?"

"A psychopath in his fifties and sixties?"

"Psychopaths in their fifties and sixties?"

Arthur was even more confused, "There are still psychopaths who can be the protagonists?"

Lao Huo shook his head: "This character is a person with an extremely high IQ and a doctor of psychiatry, but he himself has some mental stubbornness, and he can be regarded as a mental patient, and he is an extremely dangerous patient." ”

"The IQ is extremely high, a doctor of psychiatry? ”

When Arthur heard this, he suddenly became interested.

He himself is indifferent to Hollywood's special effects blockbusters, but he is very interested in some suspense thrillers, especially high-IQ crime movies, especially those related to psychiatry, which interests him even more.

"I knew the character and identity of the protagonist, and the plot director didn't let me watch it. ”

Lao Huo said, "You want to know, after that, they will give me the script, or read it after the movie is released." ”

Arthur nodded, he also knew that the script was kept secret before filming or even release, and it would definitely not be leaked casually: "By the way, didn't you say fifty or sixty years old?"

He looked at his father's half-bald hair.

Director Demi said that appearance is not a problem, and you can wear makeup when the time comes. ”

Lao Huo said.

"Can you wear makeup?"

"When Marlon Brando filmed "The Godfather", didn't he just stuff two walnuts in his mouth!"

"Daddy, do you know Marlon Brando?"

"Nonsense!"

Lao Huo glared at him.

The "Godfather" trilogy is the memory of Arthur and his younger generation. As an old man, he also saw it back then.

"That daddy......"

Arthur sat on the couch next to him and began to ask his father all sorts of questions.

At first, I thought there might be a problem here, and I confirmed with my dad that I wanted to know if this matter was reliable. At the back, it's like a fan who is very interested in actors and movies asking questions. About the main character, about the plot, about the various performances, things behind the scenes.

Lao Huo looked at him like this, very helpless: "I really don't know, just last time Director Demi asked me to play one of the lines of the protagonist, I don't know anything else!"

"Demi Director ......"

After discovering that his father really didn't know anything, Arthur still felt that this matter was a little unreliable.

Looking for Lao Huo to play the leading role, how is this possible?

Thinking of this, he took out his mobile phone and called a friend of his who knew Hollywood directors very well, asking for information about "Director Demi".

"You say there's a director named Demy? here in New York? Can you help me find out if he's going to make a new movie or a thriller lately, and then, the male protagonist is a psychopath, well, a psychiatrist or something. Oh, and have you been casting lately? Okay, I'll wait for your call. ”

hung up the phone, and after two or three minutes, the other party called back, Arthur took it, chatted for a few words, and suddenly showed a shocked expression on his face.

The other party asked his friends in Hollywood, and there was indeed a director named Demy, who was going to make a thriller next. Although I don't know the actor and the main plot, it has indeed been established, and it is indeed being cast recently. Moreover, the movie that director Demi is making now, as well as the location where he filmed, are exactly the same as what Lao Huo said before.

In other words, there really is such a thing!

Moreover, generally speaking, the news of the establishment of the project of the films of several major Hollywood distribution companies is confusing. But this time, the movie made by director Demi is obviously a very important movie, and the whole process and information are very cautious, so my friend's Hollywood friend is very sure that there is such a movie.

In other words, my father is not only a movie actor, but also an important movie actor! It is a project set up by one of the largest film production and distribution companies in Hollywood!

Arthur turned his head and looked at his father with some incredulity: "Are you really going to be the leading actor?"

"Don't don't, it's just a possibility, I'm going to audition tomorrow. ”

Lao Huo smiled and waved his hand and said.

"I'll take a leave of absence tomorrow and go with you!"

Arthur is still a little not particularly relieved, and he is also curious about how his father is there, and he can be taken by a Hollywood director!

Tomorrow, but take a good look!

......

Lao Huo and his son Arthur are a little excited in their hearts, looking forward to tomorrow's audition, while in the Eastern Country, the influence from online to offline caused by the first concert of the elderly band is still continuing.

First of all, the most direct network monitoring data, before January, because of the various publicity and influence brought by Lin Bao and the elderly band, the search volume and discussion volume of related news about folk music, erhu, suona and so on have increased very much. And the concert ended in early January, and throughout mid-to-late January, the popularity of related topics on the Internet soared.

No one thought that a concert of more than three hours would have a huge, instantaneous, but at the same time far-reaching impact on the entire related industry.

The data and discussions on the Internet have brought about an intuitive impact on the reality that the folk music-related industries are exploding.

From folk music instrument manufacturers, to various folk music piano stores, to various folk music training institutions, they have ushered in unprecedented hot sales and popularity.

The depressed and bleak production factory, and even some musical instruments are still handmade, and they feel a headache when the orders are placed in front of them. But this time it's not that I don't have money to earn a headache, but that I can't do so many headaches.

In the folk music piano store, for the first time, like an Internet celebrity store, there began to be a queue.

Striving to enroll his son in a folk music class has become a new "don't let your child lose at the starting line" project for urban parents.

What is the most important thing you want to do in street interviews?

TV show, what is your dream? to be a folk musician.

Even in children's compositions, words like folk music began to appear.

No one expected that this craze for folk music, or even revolution, would appear so quickly, and it was only because of a concert.

Whether online or offline, everyone's enthusiasm for folk music even exceeds the popularity of opera brought out by Lin Bao himself before.

It has become the third wave of popularity brought by Lin Bao in the music industry in the past two years.

The first wave of new folk songs, with the explosion of Xu Fan and Hua Particles, now, more and more folk singers have joined it, based on the original platform of Philharmonic Cloud Music, which is slowly becoming a mainstream music on the Internet.

The second wave of opera style, opera tone, needless to say, like folk songs, is a niche boutique, because of the unique, loud, very appreciative value of the opera, as well as amazing costumes, so that the traditional art of opera has re-emerged in just over a year, igniting the hope of inheritance and development.

And now, from the beginning of doing folk music, to now, this wave of folk music brought up by Lin Bao has taken half a year or even less than half a year!

"It's terrible, this young man!"

"Lin Bao is the godfather of domestic music, a golden hand in the music world, and the hope for the future of Chinese music!"

"From the eighteenth to the nineteenth century, the end of that era of masters, everyone was sad and helpless, and the appearance of Lin Bao, after more than a century, let us see hope again. And this time, the hope of music, in the East!"

"The rise of folk music is a good thing! Lin Bao has done a great thing for our people!"

"From last year's opera to this year's folk music, domestic art, and the favorite of the Spring Festival Gala, I don't know if Lin Bao has the opportunity to go on stage in person today!"

......

On the Internet, all kinds of news headlines are coming.

Although there are all kinds of exaggerated elements, everyone, from the media to the audience, everyone is still stunned by this wave of folk music that Lin Bao suddenly brought up.

It's so powerful!

It can almost be said that with his own strength, he has brought the whole trend!

And with the praise of the audience on the Internet for Lin Bao's contribution to folk music, in the comment area of "A Song of Ice and Fire" on the Galaxy Network, a wave of readers' anger is gradually burning.

It is very strange for a book like "A Song of Ice and Fire" to be serialized on a website like Yinhe.com.

It is publication-oriented, just like the foreign "Lord of the Rings" a few years ago.

However, Lin Bao did not choose to finish writing and then publish, but serialized and updated it like an online article.

Compared with the previous serialization of "The Self-cultivation of Actors", he will have some interactive communication with the following book friends. However, when conceiving and creating A Song of Ice and Fire, Lin Bao basically did not refer to the ideas of any readers, but wrote according to his own ideas.

And this is also where the readers who follow it feel congested and helpless.

Because of Lin Bao's popularity, as well as the whole world view and background of this book, it is indeed attractive, so some of the readers who follow it are publication-oriented, and some of them are online readers.

However, whether it is a publication that likes to watch some IQ suppression and a rigorous world view to the audience, or an online reader who likes to read cool articles, when chasing the plot that has been updated with five or six hundred thousand words, there is a feeling that he wants to squirt out of a mouthful of blood.

It's so sadistic!

It's not too abusive, but Lin Bao's writing, this background, and writing are too lacking in that kind of "legendary".

To put it more bluntly, there are too many people who have died!

The point is, the death of the "decent people" in everyone's eyes!

And it seems that the one who died the most and the most miserable was still "decent"!
