Chapter 204: Actor vs Actor, Acting Showdown

"Infernal Affairs" tells the story of two men with confused identities who work undercover for the police and the underworld respectively, and after a fierce wrestling battle, they are determined to find themselves.

This time, the crew of the Hong Kong film is finally no longer obsessed with gunfights, pursuit battles, crimes, etc. as the main event, but uses the perspective of two undercover agents to shoot the game between the police and criminals.

Therefore, the choice of role is also particularly important.

"Hong Chen, Li Zhengsheng, you two get ready, let's have a game first, paragraph 4. Wang Jiawei said to Hong Chen and Li Zhengsheng.

Hearing this, there was an uproar in the audience.

There is no other reason, and the fourth paragraph is a conversation between the protagonist and his boss.

And Li Zhengsheng must play the role of the police boss, so Hong Chen auditioned for the protagonist Chen Yongren.

What's going on?

Everyone present thought that Chen Yongren would be played by Liang Chaowei, and they looked at Liang Chaowei in disbelief.

Liang Chaowei is still a light and breezy appearance, with a trademark smile on his face.

Li Zhengsheng was also a little surprised.

Li Zhengsheng, who is in his forties, is a veteran actor in Hong Kong, has won the Best Actor at the Academy Awards twice, and also won the Best Actor at the TVB Thousands of Stars Awards.

Absolute powerhouse!

But Li Zhengsheng didn't know Hong Chen, or he wasn't very familiar with it.

The older generation of Hong Kong stars rarely watch new movies, so except for the people they see in their daily work and life, they know less about outsiders.

But Li Zhengsheng's face was not very good-looking at the moment, because he saw that Hong Chen was a mainlander, and he was young and handsome, with the feeling of "little fresh meat".

In the field of acting, Xiao Xianrou always has a bit of a derogatory taste.

"Wei Zai, why don't you go up?" Li Zhengsheng immediately asked Liang Chaowei, not giving the director and Hong Chen face at all.

Li Zhengsheng means that only Liang Chaowei is suitable for this protagonist and suitable for playing against himself.

"I'm not auditioning today, I'm just here to be a judge. And Hong Chen, an actor, is very good. Liang Chaowei said with a chuckle.

Hearing this, Li Zhengsheng frowned.

What is the situation?

Could it be that this mainland boy spent money to buy off the director and squeezed Wei Zai away.

Li Zhengsheng's heart began to think crankily.

Therefore, there was a bit of unkindness in his gaze when he looked at Hong Chen.

He is an actor-level figure, and his acting skills are very good, he plans to perform well in the opponent this time and completely suppress Hong Chen.

Let the mainland also know that in the HK market, don't come over to join in the fun if you don't have the strength!

Li Weiqiang felt Li Zhengsheng's momentum, and there was no special expression on his face. What he wants to see is the effect of their play, no matter what state the two people are in.

Only rival plays can maximize the potential of the actors, so that the actors can burst out with their best acting skills.

However, the rivalry also has a big drawback, that is, if one party is directly crushed, the performance may not be as good as usual, and it will lose its momentum completely.

What Li Weiqiang needs is an actor with stable acting skills, if the opponent fails and the acting skills look at the state, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for the crew who strive for excellence.

"Hongchen, there's nothing wrong with you. Li Weiqiang asked Hong Chen again.

"I can do it all. Hong Chen said very calmly, and there were not many ups and downs in his tone.

This sentence also reveals his self-confidence.

Li Zhengsheng squinted his eyes and glanced at him, Li Zhengsheng felt that this young man was a little arrogant.

Li Zhengsheng is a veteran actor and knows how to suppress the other party in the opponent's play, so he is also very confident.

Hong Chen simply painted makeup, that is, he glued a beard, shredded his hair, and then put on a black jacket, turning into a lonely man in his 30s.

"Okay, you two can get started. When he came back with a good look, Li Weiqiang said.

With that, Li Zhengsheng and Hong Chen walked onto the stage.

The props of the stage have only one railing.

This scene is the undercover Chen Yongren and his immediate boss Huang Zhicheng on the rooftop, and Huang Zhicheng asked him when the drug trafficking boss would buy the information.

The two of them leaned on the railing, looking down at the stage, as if looking at the bustling HK.

"Let's go!" Li Weiqiang shouted.

At the beginning of the audition, I saw that the smile on Hong Chen's face suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a kind of restraint and vicissitudes.

He simply changed his expression, as if he were a completely different person.

That's acting.

In Hong Chen's eyes, people can even see the complex heart of Chen Yongren's character at a glance.

Li Weiqiang's face was full of admiration, he deserved to have won the best actor, and he was able to completely enter the play in such a short time, which is amazing.

Hong Chen's body seems to have an invisible momentum, he plays an undercover agent struggling in pain, at this moment, he completely expresses the pain and disappointment.

Li Zhengsheng's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he felt a different kind of momentum from Hong Chen's body.

"It's a master!" Li Zhengsheng thought to himself.

He has worked with many great actors, and he can judge the acting skills of actors almost at a glance.

The flood dust in front of him made him feel a kind of pressure that only old drama bones have.

Li Zhengsheng looked at Hong Chen, only to see Hong Chen looking into the distance, with a bit of indescribable yearning and helplessness in his eyes, it was this look of eyes that perfectly portrayed the role of Chen Yongren.

Chen Yongren yearns for freedom, and every day he longs to restore his identity as a police officer and raise his head to be a man.

But he has a mission, he can't.

Li Zhengsheng could clearly feel the decadent momentum emanating from Hong Chen's body.

Offstage, Liang Chaowei and Liu Dehua were staring at Hong Chen intently, and in this scene, they could clearly feel the changes that had taken place in Hong Chen.

"It's amazing!" Liang Chaowei exclaimed in a low voice.

At this moment, Li Zhengsheng has entered the play. He knew that Hong Chen wanted to restore his identity as a policeman, but he also knew that Hong Chen had a mission, so he had to be a ruthless person and let Hong Chen continue to go undercover.

He's going to play the emotional card.

"You say, how many times have you been arrested just for hurting people? I did everything possible to tell the Department of Justice that you had psychological problems, and asked you to see a psychiatrist, but you still beat people everywhere. ”

Li Zhengsheng slowly approached Hong Chen, with a little pressure, and asked, "Are you really psychopathic, have you forgotten whether you are a good person or a bad person?"

Li Zhengsheng acted very well in this scene, he is now a boss and a policeman, and there is a suppression in his own status, and he deliberately creates more pressure to come out, if he is an ordinary actor and he plays, I am afraid that this scene will not be able to be accepted.

But Hong Chen didn't, his momentum was not weak, he turned his head to look at Li Zhengsheng, and also began to ask:

"Obviously said three years, three years later, three years after three years, three years after three years. ”

With these words, Hong Chen's tone gradually became high-pitched.

"It's been almost ten years, boss!"

Facing Hong Chen's questioning, Li Zhengsheng shifted his gaze, and seemed to feel a little unreasonable, and also seemed to feel sorry for Hong Chen.

Everyone in the audience watched this scene, and there was a hint of appreciation on their faces.

This rivalry is so exciting, the two people just have a simple line exchange, which makes people feel that this is a complex emotional conflict between the boss and the undercover agent.

"It's okay for you to be nice to me, now I know your identity as far as HK is concerned, why don't I go back and delete the file, you will be a fool boy for the rest of your life, and I don't have to worry about it." ”

Li Zhengsheng looked at him, his tone was very calm, as if he was chatting about family life, but a clear-eyed person could still hear the taste of "threat" contained in it.

This sentence hits Hong Chen's weakness, because he has always longed for his identity to be announced to the public and to live in the sun.

In this line, Li Zhengsheng had the upper hand again, but next, Hong Chen's momentum was not weak at all, approached him, and shouted:

"What else do you want me to do? Remind yourself every day that I'm a police officer?"

"Do you dream of shouting: 'Put down the gun, I'm a policeman'!"

The last sentence, Hong Chen almost roared, and completely suppressed Li Zhengsheng in terms of momentum.

This sentence contains Hong Chen's anger towards his boss and confusion about the future.

It was also this line that made Li Zhengsheng's face change.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the audience couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

There is no doubt that Li Zhengsheng was completely suppressed by Hong Chen!
