Chapter 555: He Xiao Biao Play!
Magnificent program recording hall.
Under the brilliant lights, the first phase of "The Birth of an Actor" has passed half of the schedule, with a total of three groups of players, the first two groups have already appeared, and only the last group of He Xiao and An Cheng are left.
The audience in the audience was already a little tired at this time, and after watching two sets of performances that were not perfect, everyone was interested, and even some people were already thinking about whether they were participating in this show by mistake, and they didn't imagine it at all.
With such an atmospheric name of "The Birth of an Actor", the imaginary picture given to the audience should be a scene of fairy actors from all walks of life gathering and playing with each other, which makes everyone addicted to drama, but in fact, this is not the case at all.
Shu Tingting and Guangkai, two stars who rely on their appearance to win the world, came up to give the audience an eyewash, and Shu Tingting, who won in the end, confidently chose to challenge Qi Xiao, and some of the audience who were not interested in her laughed.
How is the traffic Xiaohuadan compared with a powerful actress like Qi Xiao?
Is this comparable?
"Alas, it's not interesting. β
"This show doesn't talk about the whole process, but it's really not as good as I imagined. β
"I don't have much to look forward to for the next mentor fight. β
"Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV's variety shows have always been very good-looking, what's wrong with this time?"
β......β
The audience shook their heads and sighed.
On stage, several mentors are also a little unable to sit still, recording variety shows is a tiring thing, especially for people with a weak sense of variety shows.
Xiao Jitong, an old actor like Xiao Jitong, how can he know what variety show sense is, he really can't stay any longer, of course, the main reason for this is that the drama on stage is not good-looking.
Qi Xiao and Yi Guangyuan are quite calm, although Qi Xiao has an average sense of variety shows, he can be relatively calm, Yi Guangyuan is an old man, and almost the highlights of the entire show are driven by him.
Sometimes the 10 people in charge of the review are also lively.
Zhang Ming gags, occasionally popping out one or two golden sentences, at first glance it sounds nothing, but if it is edited well in the later stage, it can also increase the highlights.
"Next, the pair of actors who are going to appear on the stage are my personal favorite, one of them is a veteran actor who started filming at the age of thirteen and has been in the film for 19 years, and he also won the Best Actor at the Tokyo Film Festival. β
"He is a powerful actor who has starred in hundreds of TV series and nearly 20 movies, An Cheng!"
On the stage, Zhang Ming began to introduce the third group of guests, and the audience listened to this series of titles, a little unclear, so many people didn't remember who An Cheng was.
No way, although An Cheng has a long experience in the film industry and has participated in many works, he is just not popular, many people can sometimes remember his role, but they can't remember his real name, until the big screen began to appear in the past videos and videos, some people suddenly realized.
"It turned out to be him. β
"Isn't this Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. β
"His emperor played a must. β
β......β
There was a whispering sound from the audience, and at the back of the stage at this time, at the passage where he was about to enter, An Cheng suddenly became a little nervous when he heard the news.
He has always been very calm before, because he thinks that he is an old actor, and he will not have emotions such as retreat and nervousness on the spot, but when he really stood in front of this stage, he found that he was wrong, very wrong.
When facing three highly respected senior mentors, that sense of urgency is difficult to suppress for a professional actor.
An Cheng took a few deep breaths and adjusted his state.
He Xiao stood not far behind him, glanced at him at this time, exhaled silently, and did not speak, because compared to the nervous An Cheng, he himself was also in a mood fluctuating.
Part of this is still from Zhang Ming's newspaper, before this moment, he didn't know that An Cheng had such a powerful past, and he started acting at the age of thirteen.
This is the grandfather's appreciation, talented, after all, if you want to make your debut as a child star, it depends too much on your qualifications.
However, such a person has been drowned in the tide of the times, and has been tepid.
However, now He Xiao has no time to hold grievances for An Cheng, because he is now also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself, not to mention that the two are still competitors.
On the main stage, with Zhang Ming's introduction, the host who stood beside him and hosted the show with him, Hua Dan Chu Shengsheng, the head of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, said:
"I think the challenge of the mentors is coming, An Chengke is a very thoughtful actor, and such an actor who dares to fight hard to come to "The Birth of an Actor" should be a huge challenge for the mentors. β
Chu Shengsheng smiled brightly, and gently and generously took over Zhang Ming's topic and added again.
In fact, this show, to be precise, Zhang Ming is not a host, he is an "actor recommender", although he does the same thing as the host, but he is not a professional after all, so the program team is afraid that there will be a cold scene in the filming process, so they still arranged a professional host of their own to control the scene and host the show.
She usually doesn't talk much, but if there is an accident, she can save the scene at a critical moment.
Zhang Ming and Chu Shengsheng sang and harmonized, and An Cheng's image suddenly became three-dimensional, and many people had an unclear impression of this actor who never remembered his name.
After introducing An Cheng, it was He Xiao's turn next.
When Zhang Ming's eyes fell on the card in his hand, his eyes flashed slightly, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a meaningful smile, and said:
"An Cheng's opponent actor is a little different, although he is not from a film class, he has won the top three in the box office list of Chinese films several times, and once refreshed the box office record of domestic comedies. β
And the most surprising thing is that his achievements in film are just his side hustle, he started out as a drummer, and later developed into a professional singer, musician, pianist, and online writer...... He has a versatile identity, loves a challenge, and loves to charge into new areas. β
"Today, he came to the stage of "The Birth of an Actor" with only one purpose, to challenge his limits again!"
Speaking of this, the audience has already burst into applause and whistles.
A lot of viewers have already guessed who it is.
In the big dye vat of the entertainment industry, only that man has so many titles at the same time.
"He's justβHe Xiao!"
Sure enough, after Zhang Ming smiled faintly, he announced the names of the contestants.
At the same time, the big screen behind him also began to flash He Xiao's past film and television materials.
The singing scene of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, the historic moment when Isabella lifts the trophy aloft, and the iconic shot of Charlotte......
Several representative moments of life flashed quickly across the big screen in three seconds in the form of editing, and finally froze on a retouched poster, He Xiao's two big words, shining brightly.
"He Xiao is a talented actor with incredible creative sparks, and we are very much looking forward to an excellent actor like this entering our film and television industry. β
After Zhang Ming's introduction, Chu Shengsheng routinely took over the topic and summarized it in two or three short sentences.
"Let's give you a round of applause!"
Zhang Ming and Chu Shengsheng smiled, and after reading all the string materials, they announced that the show had officially entered the third group of competitions.
The curtain behind him was pulled high, and He Xiao and An Cheng both took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage.
At this moment, the audience is completely boiling.
He Xiao's popularity is too high!
His performance is what everyone is looking forward to.
Even if his next performance is as watery as Shu Tingting before, the audience is also in high spirits before the performance.
The legendary singer turned into the battlefield of actors, which in itself is a particularly exciting and curious thing, and before adding He Xiao, he was also on the hot search because of this matter, and there was a lot of uproar, and a group of people were waiting to see his jokes, under the premise of this background, it was even more exciting.
Can He Xiao play well?
That's why people have this question in their hearts.
This is different from making a movie, when making a movie, the audience can only see the finished film, how it was filmed, how many times it was NG, and what kind of means were used, everyone is not clear at all.
And "The Birth of an Actor" is just the opposite, the actors' every move is exposed to the spotlight, which allows the audience to see the actors' acting skills most intuitively.
If you're NG, you'll be out of class completely.
Therefore, this is a stage with zero mistakes, this is a stage that has no tolerance for actors, only success, no failure is all the prerequisite for promotion!
"Master, come on!"
"I believe in my master's acting skills!"
"My lord's ten-year-old fan came uninvited!"
"Don't worry, Minna, the master has debuted for so long, but he has never let us down!"
Although the audience is carefully selected and evenly screened, there are still some fans of He Xiao, or people who are optimistic about He Xiao.
Now when I saw He Xiao's performance finally come, the excitement was indescribable, and some people waved their fists to cheer him on.
Of course, there are also some people who are not fans of He Xiao, and they are not only stunned when they see this scene.
"What the hell, is it worth being so happy?"
"I was originally indifferent to He Xiao, but now I hate it inexplicably when I see this scene. β
"Yes, An Cheng is an old actor who has been acting for nearly 20 years, and the fans haven't said anything, what kind of orgasm are you?"
"Heh, the play hasn't started yet, just brag about your idol like this, be careful of being slapped in the face. β
Where there are people, there are camps, groups, and different voices.
It is impossible to be absolutely silent in the audience of 300 people, and when you go to the cinema to watch a movie, you may quarrel because of the different views of the characters, not to mention this kind of variety show with the nature of competitions and idols.
Zheng Xia sat at the back of the monitor to observe the audience, and after hearing the buzzing discussion in the audience, she frowned, and asked the staff to quickly control the venue and let the audience shut up.
Wang Shi held a silver thermos cup, sat beside him with a smile while blowing on the mouth of the cup, and said, "How about it, it's not that simple to shoot variety shows, right?"
"Alas, it's really different from the shows I've been exposed to before, thanks to your help, old classmate!" Director Zheng Xia shook her head and sighed, and at the same time expressed her gratitude to Wang Shi.
Wang Shi said with a smile: "Four years of classmates, we have the best relationship, what else do you and I have?"
"But ah, the riot at the scene is actually an accident, or He Xiao's kid is too popular, I estimate that when the play starts in a while, the audience will have to be more chaotic than this. β
"Why?" Zheng Xia was stunned, a little dazed.
Wang Shi pouted at He Xiaonunu, who had just appeared on the stage on the monitor, "Because of this kid, I have worked with him longer than you, and when I was filming "The Voice of Dreams", this kid almost hit the recording scene into the sky several times!"
"Can't it, right? The show works so well? It's too fake. Zheng Xia was a little skeptical.
"Hehe, then you just wait and see. Wang Shi smiled but did not speak.
......
on stage.
Under the gaze of a pair of eyes, He Xiao and An Cheng stepped onto the stage one after another.
At this time, the stage lights were not all brightened, leaving a little dim, so that the audience could not see it really.
At a glance, it is vague and vague.
This is to allow the actors to hurry to their designated position on the stage where the performance will be performed.
He Xiao wore his hair out, walked quickly through the group performance, came to the back of a table, and sat with his back to the audience.
And An Cheng, who played the Jinyi Guard, was in a vertical and horizontal figure at this time, fighting with some group performers wearing night clothes on the stage.
At the same time, Tang Bai's voice introducing the background of the story also came from the stage.
"In July of the eighth year of Liangbing in the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Ming Shengjiao ascended the throne, and in November of the same year, he removed the eunuch Wang Wuji, the head of the East Factory, from his position in the court, and sent him to Fengyang to guard the ancestral tomb of the Ming Dynasty. β
"But on the eve of Wang Wuji's departure, Jinyiwei sent someone to kill the king's ......"
After the introduction of the background of the story, the audience understood the general direction of the plot.
Because it is not difficult to understand, people who are familiar with the history of the development of China know this period of history, the Ming Dynasty is the most backbone dynasty in China, and its popularity has always been very high in modern times, and the Tang Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms and other periods, it is also the subject of the most modern film and television works, and many people love to study this period of history.
Wang Wuji is a famous eunuch in the Ming Dynasty, extremely famous, China can not find a second one for five thousand years, the absolute first eunuch, so that countless people in the long history of the masterpiece sigh to themselves, it is not easy to make the eunuch the status of power and the opposition.
And the Emperor Liangbing and Emperor Shengjiao introduced in the background Tang Bai are also famous and wonderful emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and every modern person here can understand it.
It seems that this play should be "Jinyiwei" directed by Wu Sheng. β
On the mentor stage, Qi Xiao followed Xiao Jitong beside her and whispered, and the camera flashed on her face.
"It should be, but I don't know who plays the eunuch and who plays the brocade guard. Xiao Ji smiled together, he didn't have a strong sense of variety shows, and he had very few lines, which was also a rare interaction with other mentors.
On stage, a pair of eyes continued to stare at each other.
In the darkness, the audience couldn't see it really, and could only vaguely see a guy in a flying fish suit fighting with a few men in black, and after three or five rounds, all of them were lying on the ground.
The next moment, the lights of the stage were brightened, and An Cheng was seen wearing a mighty brocade robe, holding an embroidered spring knife that was still dripping blood, and looked coldly at the figure on the wooden table with his back to him.
"This detail is a big plus. β
Zhang Ming, who was watching the performance on the side of the stage, couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praise when he saw that the prop knife was still dripping tomato juice.
The screen cuts back to the stage.
The two still didn't start the first line, one was dressed in white, with his hair scattered, with his back to the audience, and the other was holding a long knife in his hand, murderous, looking at him coldly.
The quiet pin drop at the scene could be heard, and the tense atmosphere was brought out at once.
The three instructors stared intently at their performances.
Suddenly, a "thunderclap" exploded above the heads of the two, which was a stage special effect, but it still startled the audience.
At the same time, this thunder broke the tranquility on the stage, and An Cheng, who was holding the embroidered spring knife, rushed up at once and put the blade on He Xiao's neck!
"Princess!" he said coldly.
At this time, He Xiao, who had been turning his back to all beings, finally moved his body slowly, and pulled in front of the camera, so that the audience could see his appearance clearly.
I saw him sitting there with a rickety figure, like an old man whose fire of life was about to be extinguished, but there was an indescribable madness in his eyes, his palms were clenched, trembling, like an old god stick, and then he let go of his palm, and saw a golden dice rolling down into a golden rice bowl.
At the moment of life and death, he was still playing dice!
According to historical records, the great eunuch Wang Wuji was a gambler all his life, and he didn't learn to walk the streets since he was a child, and even the reason why he entered the palace by knife was because he couldn't afford to pay off his gambling debts.
As soon as He Xiao's detail came out, the character image was plumped up at once.
"Whew-"
Qi Xiao felt a little short of breath, and she began to enter the play.
The other two mentors also didn't dare to breathe, as if they were afraid of disturbing the two actors, and they all paid close attention.
He Xiao's appearance at this time has obviously subverted the audience's previous perception of him, not only did he play a eunuch, but also deliberately turned himself old, the kind of face that should have been young has a few more wrinkles, and the long gray hair on his head is also scattered on his shoulders.
He put the dice in the bowl, and then stood up tremblingly, even though he was now on the neck with a knife, but he still let out a strange laugh, without a little fear, and said in a voice as hoarse as a see-saw:
"Lord Zongqi, if you pick off my head, you won't be able to pay the difference when you go back. β
As soon as this line came out, many people felt that their scalps were crispy and numb.
It's so feeling!
When He Xiao stood up, the temperament that belonged to the last generation of heroes was undoubtedly displayed, whether it was his eyes, expression, or tone, it was as if he was the Wang Wuji himself in history.
Wang Wuji is obviously Wei Zhongxian in the black mobile phone world, although He Xiao is playing Wei Zhongxian, not Wang Wuji, but for the audience in this world, he is playing Wang Wuji!
That cholera world, known as the 9,900-year-old eunuch!
A look, with a strong sense of oppression that only a superior person has, fell towards An Cheng's body.
An Cheng's heart was also a little worried at this time, because He Xiao at this time was different from him during the previous rehearsal.
Although his acting skills have improved a lot during the rehearsal, and even sometimes he feels a little pressed, but it is only a little bit.
He worked hard and put some input, and he was still able to fight with He Xiao.
But now......
From the aura, he is already completely pressuring him to act.
The reason for this result is naturally because He Xiao has already turned on his firepower at this time.
Before, he only used half of his skills, he hid a song very chicken, and now that it has reached the real competition, he naturally does not need to keep his hole cards and directly show 100% of his skills.
That will naturally make An Cheng feel unprecedented pressure!
This is also destined that when the two stepped on the stage, after the thunder exploded, the rhythm of this scene was completely taken over by He Xiao.
"Kill you, why can't we pay the errand?"
An Cheng almost didn't catch the play, but fortunately, more than ten years of performance experience is not a joke, after a moment of calmness, he continued to act according to the template of the rehearsal.
In response to this question, He Xiao, who played Wang Wuji, showed a natural disdain at the corner of his mouth, he did not care about the sharp embroidered spring knife on his neck, nor did he care about the shape of his cape at this time like a lost dog.
Instead, he calmly picked up a pot of turbid wine, calmly raised his head and took a big sip, the smell of alcohol was tangy, and the white liquid flowed down his chin.
Only then did he say slowly: "Why did that kid kill me?
"Hum, hum!"
Without waiting for Jinyi Wei Zhao Yusheng to reply, Wang Wuji laughed unbridled again, laughing very obscenely and crazy, which made people sound very uncomfortable.
But no one present felt like a play, because that's how eunuchs are supposed to laugh!
It is impossible for him to make a hearty laugh like an emperor, let alone a long laugh like a chivalrous warrior, it can only be this kind of breathless, crazy and obscene "trembling laughter".
"It's so good!"
"You can still control the situation with a knife on your neck!"
"Fairy acting. β
The audience can see the difference of He Xiao's performance.
Under the blurry light, Wang Wuji smiled, began to pour wine by himself, and muttered: "I, Wang Wuji, have been in power for eight years, and now the tree is falling and scattered, there is nothing left, I have money." β
"The northwest is plagued by bandits, and there are large soldiers in Liaodong, and what the emperor lacks is ...... Military salary!"
"My money is military salary, and if you can't get my money, how are you going to pay it?"
The sound fell, and the thunderstorm outside the window rumbled again.
An Cheng was a little fierce by the oppression, but he still stubbornly said: "Kill you, we will naturally bring back your military salary." β
To be honest, everyone has already seen that the leader of this play is He Xiao.
Performance instructor Han Xiulan, chief director Zheng Xia, and assistant director Wang Shi were all watching from the audience at this time, and they couldn't help but sigh when they saw this scene again.
Originally, this repertoire was "Jinyiwei chasing and killing the eunuchs", and the leader should be Jinyiwei, as a weak role, the eunuchs can't turn the storm at all, but why did they become like this?
What did He Xiao do to make him a character who was in rags, inferior to An Cheng in terms of costume styling and character setting, and reversed the situation abruptly?
Play, can it still be acted like this?
Perhaps, an excellent actor can really make the audience's attention revolve around him no matter what role he gets.
He Xiao's competition scene today really impressed everyone.
......
