Chapter 323: Genius Actor

Liang Chaowei took a light breath and said, "My name is Liang Chaowei, I am 21 years old this year, and I am an actor from the Great Wall. After graduating from the actor training class, I starred in the film "Mint Coffee" directed by Sin Qiran, in which I played the male lead Zhou Qihua. This time I came to interview the actor Zheng Yi. ”

After listening to Liang Chaowei's self-introduction, Xu Wangqiu nodded slightly: "I heard Sister Shi Hui say that you are very talented, and I also watched "Mint Coffee" starring you, and your performance is really good." Everyone present is your own person, don't be nervous, relax. You've studied acting, and you should know that relaxation is very important for an actor. ”

Liang Chaowei said "yes" in his mouth, but he didn't dare to be the slightest slack in his heart, staring at Xu Wangqiu, waiting for him to give him a question.

Xu Wangqiu didn't know what Liang Chaowei was thinking, so he said directly: "Let's start, tell me what you think of the police." ”

This question is a bit big, and there's a lot of room to play around. Liang Chaowei breathed a sigh of relief, he had watched the clip of "Cold", and he had also read the character biography, and knew that the actor Zheng Yi was a policeman. It's not hard to answer this question at all. He organized his language and said: "The profession of the police is sacred, they maintain social order and protect the personal and property safety of citizens. After a long period of hard training, they have a professional and restrained professionalism, and they shed blood and sweat to protect the Xiangjiang River, they are great heroes. ”

Xu Wangqiu continued: "If a policeman kills someone else's family, what do you think of such a person. ”

Liang Chaowei pondered for a few seconds and said, "I think this person should be crazy, he must have a mental problem." ”

"Now you have to play such a scene. Xu Wangqiu pointed to his nose and said, "I am the culprit who caused your family to be ruined, and I am also the culprit who has ruined countless people." He pointed at Xia Meng and said, "This is the murderer's wife." Then he pointed at Zhang Yimou and said, "This is the murderer's ten-year-old son." You're a police officer, and now you're in their room, and you're shooting the murderer's wife and son to death in front of the murderer. I'll give you two minutes to prepare, and in two minutes you'll put the play on the show. ”

Liang Chaowei received a year of training in the Stanley system at the Great Wall, and knew that acting is acting in action. In the training class, the teacher often gave them questions, and the questions were often very simple, such as acting and drinking water. But the teacher asked you to drink water, and you couldn't go over and pick up the cup and drink it. The real performance should be the performance of the three elements of action, there must be what to do, why, and how to do. The same is true of this scene, you can't pick up a gun and go into the room and beat the enemy's wife and son to death, you must perform the three elements of action.

Liang Chaowei has a very gentle personality and rarely has an impact with others. It was really difficult for him to act in a murderous scene, and it was women and children who were killed. He frowned and thought about how to act in this scene, looking for the logic of the characters' actions.

Two minutes passed in a flash. Xu Wangqiu glanced at his watch and said directly: "Let's start acting now." ”

Liang Chaowei took a light breath, got up and walked to the door of the room. His face instantly turned cold, his eyes flashed with a cold glow like a poisonous snake, and he slowly walked over to Xu Wangqiu. Walking to the center of the room, he pulled the auditioner's seat and sat down in a chair.

Liang Chaowei stared at Xu Wangqiu, his eyes surging with murderous intent, and a voice squeezed out from between his teeth: "You killed my parents and made me an orphan since I was a child." Do you know the feeling of being alone when other people's families are happy during the New Year's holidays? You killed my parents and so many people. Now that you're in my hands, do you know what I'm going to do?"

Xu Wangqiu said in a slightly trembling voice: "You are a policeman, you can't hurt the innocent." This is my business with you, not my family, and you let them go. As long as you let them go, you can do whatever you want to me. ”

Liang Chaowei grinned and showed a cold smile: "Yes, I'm a policeman, I can't hurt the innocent." As he spoke, he raised his hand and made a trigger pull motion at Zhang Yimou, making a "bang" sound in his mouth. He stared at Xu Wangqiu viciously, gritted his teeth and said, "How is it, it hurts in my heart, isn't it?" He raised his voice and said loudly: "Do you know, I've been in pain for 21 years." Countless people out there are suffering the same because of the sins you have done, their families are ruined. I just want you to taste this too!" As he spoke, he raised his hand and made a gesture of pulling his gun at Xia Meng, making a "bang" sound in his mouth.

Xu Wangqiu smiled and nodded, Liang Chaowei did have two brushes. For an actor to play a good scene, in addition to the script, the cooperation of the opponent actors, and the psychological basis for finding the role. The character played by Liang Chaowei is a policeman, but he kills women and children. If the psychological basis is not accurate, then it will be difficult to achieve the desired effect. Liang Chaowei found the psychological basis of the character, and he came to Xu Wangqiu to take revenge. If you just kill the enemy, then it is too cheap for the enemy. He killed the enemy's wife and son, just hoping that the other party would suffer, and let the other party bear the pain of the white-haired man sending the black-haired man.

Of course, the current Liang Chaowei has just made his debut and has only acted in a movie, which is still very immature compared with Liang Chaowei during the period of "In the Mood for Love" and "Infernal Affairs". Coupled with the fact that he did not have a deep enough experience of the characters' emotions and hearts, he did not really enter the prescribed situation, and he did not fully carry out the role, and the whole performance was still a bit superficial.

However, it is not surprising that Liang Chaowei is a natural experiential actor, and experiential actors need corresponding emotional experience to act, if you have no emotional experience of the role you play, it is very difficult to act. Liang Chaowei can perform this scene to such an extent in such a short period of time.

Xu Wangqiu likes to work with good actors, and Leung Chaowei is undoubtedly a good actor, and he is the best kind. Xu Wangqiu is ready to use Liang Chaowei in "Cold", but he does not plan to let him play the actor Zheng Yi, but let him play the actor's partner Zhang Jie, a young policeman who was killed by a mob. This role is very important, and it is one of the triggers for the male protagonist to collapse at the end and go on a killing spree.

Xu Wangqiu listed Liang Chaowei as Zhang Jie's first choice, but the audition is not over yet, and maybe there is a more suitable candidate. He smiled at Liang Chaowei and said, "Thank you for participating in today's audition." We'll let you know the results when our auditions are over. ”

Liang Chaowei didn't know if Xu Wangqiu was satisfied with his performance, but he was not very satisfied with his performance. He lacked relevant experience, he didn't get into the role completely, and his performance just now was not ideal. He exhaled slightly, bowed to Xu Wangqiu and the others, turned around and left the conference room.

After Leung left, the next auditioner quickly walked in, and the audition began again.

During the subsequent audition, Xu Wangqiu saw many familiar actors, including Wu Zhenyu, Li Zixiong and others. They are all in their early twenties, not only are they pink, but their acting skills are also very tender. According to their performances and according to the needs of the role, Xu Wangqiu ticked some people's names and crossed some people's names.

The audition lasted until 4 p.m., and the actors of the Great Wall were finished. Xu Wangqiu was satisfied with today's audition, most of the roles have found suitable actors, but the best person for the actor did not appear. Liang Chaowei is too tender to play the actor Zheng Yi. Yindu is an actor in his thirties, and they all came to audition, but their image and temperament do not match Zheng Yi in Xu Wangqiu's heart.

The situation is the same for the heroine, who did not find the right person. In Xu Wangqiu's heart, Bao Qijing is the best candidate for the heroine Wei Lai, but unfortunately Bao Qijing is pregnant and cannot act. The other actresses of Great Wall are all relatively young, all in their twenties, and they can't play mature women in their early thirties and have been married for several years.

However, there are also many actresses shortlisted for the crew of "Cold", and Liu Jialing is one of them. It's not that Xu Wangqiu wants to promote her for the sake of mainlanders, but that she is really suitable, because she wants to play an eighteen or nineteen-year-old mainland immigrant. This character is Zheng Yi's neighbor, whose family's economic conditions are good, but because of the collapse of the property market, he became a "negative equity" crowd, and finally his family committed suicide by burning charcoal.

The experience of this family was not made up by Xu Wangqiu, but it really happened. In the last life, the Xiangjiang property market collapsed in 1997, and more than 100,000 middle-class people became debtors. Many insolvent people choose to end their lives by burning charcoal, with 320 people committing suicide by burning charcoal in 2003 alone.

Xu Wangqiu filmed this episode, which can be regarded as a reminder to the people of Xiangjiang, don't blindly speculate in the building, otherwise you can only jump off the building when the property market collapses. But he also knows that this is useless, for people who speculate in real estate, they always think that the property market will continue to rise, even if the property market will collapse in the future, they can get rid of it in advance, and they will not be the last to take over.

At the end of the audition, Xu Wangqiu flipped through the notes he made during the audition and began to sort out the list of actors.

As the eldest princess of the Great Wall, as the predecessor of the Zuo faction, Xia Meng was sincerely happy to see so many newcomers emerging from the Great Wall. She turned her head to look at Xu Wangqiu and said, "Wangqiu, the actors are all settled, right?"

Xu Wangqiu said while sorting out the list: "Most of the roles have been decided, but the candidates for the hero and heroine, as well as the candidates for Huang Shilang, the mastermind behind the scenes, have not yet been decided." The male and female protagonists are mainly inappropriate in age, and Huang Shilang's actors do not match their images. Huang Shilang's actor must be a little similar to Li Cucumber, and he must have the temperament of a business tycoon. ”

In the story of "Cold", the mastermind behind the killing of the hero's parents and the social turmoil in Xiangjiang is Li Cucumber. At the beginning, Xia Meng changed the script, and the mastermind behind the scenes was directly called Li Cucumber.

Xu Wangqiu felt that there was a suspicion of reputation infringement by directly using plum cucumber, so he changed the plum cucumber to Huang Shilang. Because there is a saying in later generations: "The biggest problem in Goose City is that there is a Huang Shilang, and the biggest problem in Xiangjiang is that there is a group of Huang Shilang." ”

When Xia Meng heard Xu Wangqiu say this, he said: "The Great Wall is particularly optimistic about Liang Chaowei, and he also intends to praise him, hoping to train him to be the master of the Great Wall." Liang Chaowei just graduated from the actor training class, and Yindu asked him to star in "Mint Coffee". Didn't he act very well in the morning, can't he make him a little older?"

It is impossible for Xu Wangqiu to relax his requirements for actors in order to meet the needs of the Great Wall: "No." Liang Chaowei's acting skills are still a little younger, and he is too young. We can make him a little more mature, but the inside-out temperament of a mature man can't be transformed, so it's better to find a mature actor to play it. ”

Xia Meng trusts Xu Wangqiu very much and does not interfere with creation. Seeing that Xu Wangqiu insisted on not using Liang Chaowei as the leading actor, she was not reluctant: "Do you have a suitable candidate? ”

Xu Wangqiu shook his head and said: "Zhou Yanfa does not match Zheng Yi's image and temperament, he is tall and burly, not like a sick person, I want David Jiang to try it." If the heroine is the heroine, let Wang Mingquan try it. Huang Shilang's actor, I really don't have a clue at all, I can only trouble Sister Xia Meng. ”

Xia Meng said happily: "Leave this matter to me." ”
