Chapter 108: Chengying
"Thank you. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xiao Yao adjusted his breathing slightly, thanked the producer and director for their praise, and continued: "If you want to write a drama, the director should pick a paragraph." ”
"It's okay, you can play whatever you want, which part you want. Director Li Xin said with a smile.
Just two times just now, Li Xin already admired Xiao Yao very much. The appearance is very suitable, and the movements are so beautiful, as long as Xiao Yao's acting skills are not too bad, he wants to make up his mind and decide to use him, at most, he will spend more effort on the spot.
"Okay!" Xiao Yao nodded.
After finishing speaking, Xiao Yao closed his eyes, and began to recall the prescribed situation he had done for the role of "Chengying" overnight last night, and slowly substituted himself into the role of "Chengying".
The producer and director are all professionals, but they are very patient with this, and they are all waiting quietly, without urging Xiao Yao at all.
It was almost a minute before Xiao Yao opened his eyes. When they opened their eyes, both the producer and the director keenly noticed that Xiao Yao's eyes had changed.
Xiao Yao put his hands in one hand and stared ahead stubbornly with his eyes. Then he took a small step to the right, then a small step to the left, and then he said firmly, "No!"
Then, Xiao Yao glanced back as if he had heard something, then puffed out his cheeks, reluctantly put his hands down, and turned sideways, but his slightly lowered head stared at him, and he swung his head in a half circle from right to left, as if staring at a person walking by in front of him.
The producer hasn't reacted for a while, but director Li Xin, who is familiar with the script, knows that Xiao Yao is playing a part where "Wen Jun" is sick and "Chengying" is afraid that he will be disturbed and affected to recuperate, so he stops customers at the door. Xiao Yao's performance in this section is very good, showing the simplicity and loyalty of "Chengying".
"Not bad, yes, is there anything else?" Li Xin said with a smile, unexpectedly a little unfinished.
Due to the relationship between the role positioning, "Chengying" does not have a large section of literary drama, but there are a lot of interesting small clips like this. Xiao Yao thought about it, walked directly to the wall, lowered his head, put his forehead against the wall, and began to twist from side to side, as if he wanted to drill a hole in the wall. While drilling, he said angrily: "I don't like it!" After a pause, his voice became a little louder, and he said like a tantrum: "I just don't like it!" Finally, Xiao Yao said with great grievance: "Chengying can't beat it!"
This is the scene after the defeat of "Chengying" and "Zhao Yi", the commander of the Praetorian Guard, who was praised as the first master by "Ling Yunzhi" in the play. Although Xiao Yao was against the wall and couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, the emotions expressed in these few words were just right, which made Li Xin feel that the dubbing seemed to be saved.
The fourteen or fifteen-year-old child is in the period of voice change, and most of the voices are not very good, so the crew specially prepared voice actors for the role of "Chengying". But Xiao Yao's voice has always been well protected, and there was no hoarse male duck voice like ordinary children during the voice change period, and the emotions brought out in his lines are very accurate and in place, so there is no need for voice actors. "This little guy might be on fire. Li Xin said in her heart.
"Chengying" is originally a very likable character, if Xiao Yao can maintain this level during the official filming, then after it is broadcast on TV, it will be difficult for this role and this actor to become popular.
"Alright, go and invite Jiaying in. Li Xin exchanged glances with the producer, and then said to the assistant in charge of interviewing photography on the side. Li Xin originally wanted to take pictures of all the interviews, and then go back and watch them slowly and choose from them, but now, he already plans to finalize Xiao Yao directly.
Ye Jiaying did not watch the interview in the room, but waited outside the door of the interview room. One is afraid that Xiao Yao's performance will be affected because of his presence, and the other is also to show his attitude. Although Xiao Yao is her son, she just recommends it, and she doesn't want to affect the decision of the producer and director because of her identity.
"Jiaying, thank you so much, you found me such a great candidate, and we decided that he was the actor for the role of "Chengying". I really can't imagine that you have such a powerful son, you are simply a genius actor, and you can be regarded as a successor. Li Xin said with a smile.
Ye Jiaying also smiled happily when she heard Li Xin's words. "Thank you, director, for the compliment. Ye Jiaying was not modest, she just thanked her, and then said: "Xiao Yao doesn't have an agent now, and I will let my agent be responsible for helping to negotiate the follow-up contract, no problem, right?"
"Of course, it's your son, after all. The producer laughed too. "Later, I will also let your agent inform you of the makeup, boot and other related matters. ”
"Okay, in that case, let's take our leave. Ye Jiaying said with a smile. She knew that they still had a few small roles in the actor who hadn't done it, and there would be interviews scheduled later.
"Okay, then the crew will see you, I hope we can work together happily. Li Xin nodded.
Ye Jiaying took Xiao Yao to the door two steps, and suddenly turned around and asked, "By the way, producer, director, I don't know if the opening, ending and episode of our TV series have been completed?"
"What's the matter? I brought my son into the group, and I thought of my husband again?" The producer smiled: "Yes, the various songs of this TV series are still being solicited and have not been finalized." After all, it won't be used until the later stage, so there's no hurry. If Mr. Xiao has a good work, we welcome him to participate. Of course, we also know your thoughts, and if the final song is suitable for you, we can arrange for you to sing it, whether it was written by Mr. Xiao or not. ”
"Actually, Siqi doesn't have many songs in film and television works, and he is not very good at this, in fact, I hit another person's idea. Ye Jiaying smiled, "Okay, it's okay yet, I have to help you invite songs." ”
"That's a good feeling," the producer laughed, "I hope you can surprise us again." ”
Out of the interview room, there was no one in the corridor outside, Ye Jiaying looked at Xiao Yao with a smile and said, "XY classmate, did you hear it?"
Xiao Yao rolled his eyes helplessly and replied: "I know, I have to be selected by the crew, and I have to sing according to your voice conditions and singing skills, I will try my best." ”
After getting the interview and getting the role, Xiao Yao had the time to consider the name of the role of "Chengying". Then Xiao Yao's thoughts went back to six years ago, the student of Sun Zhihao he met when he was acting in a drama, and Su Chengying, who had the same name as the role he was going to play. Then, Xiao Yao really met Su Chengying in the crew.
After the start-up ceremony, the crew did not arrange the shooting plan that day, but let the main staff of the crew and more than 20 main actors move freely in the filming location for half a day, everyone can get familiar with the environment, and you can also get to know each other, so that they can be more effective in the future shooting, and the cooperation between each other can be more tacit.
Xiao Yao met Su Chengying at this time. Although after six years, Xiao Yao has grown up a lot and his appearance has changed a little, but with Ye Jiaying's appearance as a prompt, Su Chengying still recognized Xiao Yao at a glance.
"Ah, Xiao Yao, you've grown so tall, the last time we met, you didn't reach my shoulders, and now you're about the same height as me. Su Chengying happily pulled Xiao Yao and said, "Who are you playing?"
"Chengying... Hello sister. Xiao Yao nodded with a smile and said deliberately.
"You're playing "Chengying"? Su Chengying immediately heard what Xiao Yao meant, and said excitedly: "Xiao Yao plays "Chengying", and Su Chengying plays "Qingyao". In addition to the difference in surnames, the character's name and real name have been adjusted, and we are really fateful. ”
Li Xin has been very impressed with Xiao Yao since that interview, so this party is also not far from Xiao Yao intentionally or unintentionally, so as to further observe him. At this time, seeing that he and Su Chengying looked familiar, he leaned over and asked, "You knew each other before?"
"yes, we acted in a play together six years ago. Su Chengying agreed with a smile, and then said with a bitter face: "At that time, he was the second male lead, and I was a little dragon." Unexpectedly, six years later, I still don't have as many scenes as him. ”
Six years ago, Su Chengying was just a college student, and now she has graduated for four years, and her development is quite smooth, through solid acting skills and good appearance and the care of some connections of teacher Sun Zhihao, she has now gained a firm foothold in the entertainment industry and has become one of the few famous little flowers of the new generation, and the future is bright.
The "Qing Yao" she plays in this drama is a very important subordinate with the most distinct personality under the male number one "Wen Jun", and there is also a crush on "Wen Jun" on the emotional line.
"Male No. 2, you were only more than eight years old six years ago, right? You played the male No. 2 in the drama?" Li Xin said with some surprise. Although it was said in the previous information that Xiao Yao had acted in a drama, he didn't say that he was the second male lead, he subconsciously thought it was just an ordinary small supporting role.
"Director Li, you probably didn't pay much attention to things in the circle in the past few years, right?" Su Chengying said with a smile: "This little guy played "Happiness Terminal" written and directed by my teacher Sun Zhihao back then, and he played Teacher Sun's son, which was very popular in the drama circle back then. ”
"Six years ago? Six years ago, I was still a photographer, and I didn't even start directing, so naturally I didn't pay much attention to that. Li Xin didn't mind exposing himself with a short smile.
"Yes, but Director Li, let me tell you, this guy was terrible when he was a child. When I was more than five years old, I participated in reality TV shows and bargained with others when I bought things in the market. When I was eight years old, he talked to me about performance terms such as "methodology", "experiential method", and "discovering prescribed situations", and I was stunned. By the way, and my name is one of the "Ten Famous Swords of Ancient Times", which he also told me. This guy was a demon back then. Su Chengying gushed to Li Xin.
"Do you want to make a turn in your next sentence, and then say "It's been an hour, maybe it's not good"?" Xiao Yao said with a smile.
"You see, that's an idiom again. Su Chengying pointed at Xiao Yao and said to Li Xin.
"I didn't expect to have a name for my character. Li Xin smiled: "Originally, your character was not called "Chengying", but the screenwriter and I changed this name when we heard Chengying say that her name was related to the top ten famous swords in ancient times. ”
The character of "Chengying" was originally a killer who was adopted and nurtured by the killer organization since he was a child, because the progress of his martial arts was promoted by drugs led to mental underdevelopment, and in addition to his super martial arts, he basically had no ability to live independently. Later, the killer organization collapsed, and he was left alone, and was rescued by "Wen Jun" when he was about to freeze to death, so he followed "Wen Jun" with all his heart.
When the director and screenwriter chatted with Su Chengying once, they heard Su Chengying say that his name was related to the top ten ancient swords, so he moved his mind to name the ten killers of the killer organization in the script after the top ten ancient swords. The only one who survived when the organization collapsed, that is, the personal guard of "Wen Jun" later, simply used the "Chengying" in the "Ten Famous Swords".
When making the cast list in the later stage, "Chengying" and "Qingyao" were put together, and if you didn't pay attention, you would see the names "Chengying" and "Su Chengying" together, which was also a small trick in the later stage.
