The door opens to a large conference room with a desk in front of it and two cameras on the other. There are three people sitting behind the desk, in the middle is the director Zhang Qi, and on the left is an absolute acting school, the well-known actor Liang Zichao.

As for the other middle-aged man, Bai Yi heard Zhang Qi mention that Wang Zhao, the boss of Huaying, is also one of the producers of this play.

When Zhang Qi saw Bai Yi walking in, he couldn't help but smile, and introduced Liang Zichao with a smile: "He is Bai Yi, the screenwriter of this play." ”

Liang Zichao's eyes fell on Bai Yi, looked at Bai Yi a few times, and said with a smile: "The story is very good, it is really a little genius to come up with such a wonderful story at such an age." ”

Wang Zhao also smiled and nodded, there was some appreciation in his eyes, but his eyes fell on the interview list behind, in fact, he didn't think Bai Yi was suitable for this role.

First of all, he is a little older, not to mention that Bai Yi has never been exposed to acting before.

Wang Zhao looked at Zhang Qi and asked, "Begin?"

Zhang Qi knows that it is now an audition, and the role of Cole is very important, even if Bai Yi is the screenwriter of this drama and the producer, it is impossible to have any advantage in front of the real result.

Although he was already very familiar, Zhang Qi still said: "Bai Yi, you introduce yourself first." ”

"Director Zhang, I don't think I need to introduce myself--let's start directly. ”

Liang Zichao interrupted Zhang Qi's words, took the script, turned to one of the pages, swept his eyes over Bai Yi's left wrist, his eyes froze, and said: "Bai Yi, you are the screenwriter of this play, and you should be very clear about this play, then you will play the scene where Dr. Lin Mai and Kele meet at home." ”

Zhang Qi had no opinion, and knew that there was no need to waste time at all, so he introduced and watched the scene, which was about Lin Mai guessing what Cole was thinking, and if he guessed correctly, he would take a step forward, and if he guessed wrong, he would retreat.

There are not many lines, but it is a very wonderful scene, especially in this scene, through the dialogue of Guò, which begins to express some of Cole's innermost thoughts.

Hearing Liang Zichao's words, Bai Yi nodded.

He naturally remembered that scene, especially the distance between Cole walking forward and backward, that is, the distance between Cole's heart and the outside world, whether to go out or go back.

It can be said that this scene is very exciting.

Zhang Qi glanced at the photographer on the side, turned his head and smiled at Bai Yi and winked, although he didn't say anything, Zhang Qi was also encouraging Bai Yi, hoping that Bai Yi would not be nervous.

The conference room fell silent and began to wait for Bai Yi's performance.

Bai Yi calmed down, didn't think about it anymore, and put it in the play "The Sixth Sense", the role of Cole.

Long before coming to the audition, he had already begun to prepare and began to figure out how to play the role of Cole.

He's not really a nine-year-old, thirteen-year-old boy.

However, Cole is also different from the average nine-year-old boy.

Single-parent families,Since birth, you have been able to see ghosts.,Such a life experience,I've been living in fear.,In order not to worry your mother.,Don't want your mother to think that you're a freak.,Always pretend to be like a normal person.,Hide the fact that you can see ghosts.。

At all times, everywhere, he could see dead people, see ghosts, walk alone in fear, and bear all his fears and insecurities alone.

Cole is also lonely.

Loneliness and fear, this is not something that a nine-year-old boy should experience.

Loneliness and fear!

It's like the distance from Lin Mai, but just a few steps, but you can't walk through, the front is approaching, and the back is constantly retreating, step after step.

It is precisely because no one can understand him and believe in him that there will be that loneliness.

So how should a nine-year-old child's loneliness be expressed?

How can a nine-year-old's fear be expressed?

In the performance, it is very important to carefully analyze the hearts of the characters, the fear and loneliness of the nine-year-old child, and the fear all the time.

Fear is the unfamiliarity with the unknown, the fear of the unknown, the terrible things.

But Cole's fear was all the time, and he should be familiar with the dead people who had appeared in front of him so often.

What would it be like to be familiar and have experienced countless fears?

Before the audition, Bai Yi carefully recalled the performance of Haley Joe in "The Sixth Sense" in the previous life, and his natural acting skills may not be just acting, but the child's own temperament, with bright eyes and tears, so lonely and helpless, suffering in fear.

Lonely and helpless, tormented by fear・・・・・・

He's not the same as Haley Joe, but he can do it in his own way.

Because he's similar to Cole.

Now the auditions really begin.

Bai Yi's head tilted slightly to the right, looking at Liang Zichao, his immature face was deep and incommensurate with his age, his eyes were transparent, he looked at Liang Zichao quietly, his eyes seemed calm, but his eyes seemed to have an indescribable meaning.

Standing there like that, Bai Yi's whole person seemed to have changed.

Zhang Qi frowned slightly, he didn't know why he had this feeling in his heart, this feeling was like psychological externalization.

Such a small person stood there, his eyes calm, but there was a sense of loneliness and helplessness on his body.

Not only Zhang Qi, but the photographer opened his eyes wide, staring at the camera in a daze, only to feel that he had seen a ghost, and his heart fluctuated.

Ming Ming Yi didn't do anything, but the whole conference room felt the smell of loneliness and helplessness in him, and the immature face and calm gaze made people's hearts tremble.

Zhang Qi was shocked in his heart and gathered his thoughts.

Psychological externalization, such a thing is not difficult in the movie, it can be achieved through some lens processing, such as background music, color, and light and shadow changes, especially a few shots flicked, cut, and then through the eyes of the actors themselves, and the change of intonation.

But now Bai Yi didn't speak, nor did he make any movements, he just looked at Liang Zichao calmly, just standing there, and conveyed his inner state.

Not to mention, it was just a matter of moments, how could this be!

Bai Yike is only thirteen years old and has never acted, how can he be psychologically externalized?

How can it be!

Zhang Qi only felt incredible, but now was not the time for her to think about this, she had to start watching Bai Yi's performance seriously.

Liang Zichao looked at the change in Bai Yi's eyes, as well as the surrounding atmosphere, raised his eyebrows, and suddenly felt a little interesting, took the script, and began to play against Bai Yi, saying, "Do you want to play games?"

Bai Yi didn't answer.

"It's a guessing game, that's how it is played. Without waiting for Bai Yi to answer, Liang Zichao continued to say slowly: "I guess what you are thinking. ”

"If I'm right, you take a step forward, and if I'm wrong, you take a step back and retreat to the door. ”

"If you go to the chair, you have to sit down, and if you retreat to the door, you can go. Want to play?"

Without a rush to answer, Bai Yi turned his head and glanced to the right, as if to see if his mother had noticed, and then his lips moved slightly, but he didn't speak, just nodded.

It was such a small action, Zhang Qi's eyes lit up.

This is what Cole has been worried about at home, that is, he doesn't want his mother to know that he is abnormal, and he doesn't want his mother to think that he is a weirdo and a freak, so he will look at his mother first, and he doesn't want his mother to see this scene.

During the audition just now, some young actors didn't notice this, and nodded directly and said yes.

Liang Zichao watched Bai Yi's performance, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and continued: "Okay, when your parents just divorced, your mother asked a doctor like me, but he couldn't help her, so you think I can't help you either." ”

Hearing Liang Zichao's words, Bai Yi still looked calmly, but took a step forward with his left leg.

"You're worried, she says she's told the doctor something, something she didn't tell anyone, some secrets. ”

Bai Yi looked at Liang Zichao, his eyes widened imperceptibly, his brows frowned slightly, and he seemed to have a trace of doubt, but he was still very calm, tilting his head and staring like that.

Then, one step further, with small steps.

"You also have a secret that you don't want to tell me?"

Hearing what Liang Zichao said, Bai Yi unconsciously clenched his hands and became a little nervous, it seemed that the ups and downs in his heart were greater than just now, and the eyes were no longer calm, but under the calm, there was a surging heart.

The people in the conference room watched Bai Yi's performance, and the progression of this layer of emotion came out very completely through Guò's eyes.

Eye?

Yes, it's the eyes!

Zhang Qi suddenly tightened the pen in his hand, staring straight at Bai Yi's eyes, the changes in emotion, psychology, are expressed through the subtle changes in the eyes of these eyes.

Subtle changes, delicate emotions, Bai Yi is very well handled.

Looking at Bai Yi standing in front of him, such a thin and thin body, standing like that, it was really like Cole standing in front of them, looking at them so lonely and helpless.

The conference room was so quiet that it seemed that even the sound of everyone's breathing was gone.

For some reason, watching Bai Yi's performance, the photographer couldn't help but hold his breath, for fear of disturbing Bai Yi's performance in the lens.

Liang Zichao's gaze fell on Bai Yi's left wrist and asked, "Your father left that watch for you before leaving." ”

Hearing Liang Zichao's words, Bai Yi looked at Liang Zichao, his eyes suddenly changed, there was no doubt and surprise at the beginning, his eyes seemed to have a trace of sadness, and he was also a little disappointed.

The atmosphere in the conference room seemed to change with Liang Zichao's words, and it became sad.

Looking at the change in Bai Yi's eyes, so delicate, Zhang Qi's heart was already turbulent, especially when Bai Yi really carried a watch on his left wrist.

A watch whose hands do not move and has been broken.

Although Bai Yi is a screenwriter and knows the story, he even wore a watch for the audition, so it is conceivable that Bai Yi really cares about the role of Cole.

The performance continues, and the next thing is Bai Yi's lines.

Bai Yi took a step back and said, "He forgot it in the drawer, it's broken." ”

There was no speech, and the room was quiet, but there was a sad air in it.

No one bothered at this time, everyone was infected by this atmosphere and Bai Yi's performance, and even Liang Zichao began to get serious, no longer simply talking to the lines.

"You are quiet at school, but ...... You're a good student and never get into trouble. ”

Bai Yi took a step back, his shallow eyebrows frowned slightly, his head lowered slightly, and he raised his head to look at Liang Zichao, his voice was very low, and said, "There was an art class - whatever we painted, I drew one person. ”

Bai Yi's gaze was calm, his eyes were as clear as water, but he was as calm as water, and said, "Another person stabbed him in the neck with a screwdriver." ”

A calm sentence, coming out of such a child's mouth, sounds really astringent.

"You saw it on TV?"

As soon as Liang Zichao said this, Bai Yi took a step back, his immature face was deep, and he said in a solemn voice: "The teacher is very angry, they are looking for a meeting with their mother. ”

"Mom started crying. ”

Looking at Liang Zichao, Bai Yi said like that, and said calmly, "I won't paint these anymore." ”

"What are you painting now?"

Bai Yi's eyes lowered, then raised his head slightly, shrugged his shoulders lightly, and said, "Smiling people, running dogs, and rainbows." Drawing a rainbow won't get you in trouble. ”

Liang Zichao's eyes were also a little solemn, and he replied in a low voice: "That's right, I don't think so." ”

Bai Yi glanced back, as if he was a little lost, he was very close to the door, turned his head to look at Liang Zichao, and asked calmly, "What am I thinking about now?"

"I don't know what you're thinking. ”

Bai Yi took another step back.

Standing far away from Liang Zichao, Bai Yi stood like that, his eyes calm, but with endless loneliness and helplessness, and said, "I'm thinking, you're very good, but you can't help me." ”

The last sentence had a hint of hoarseness in his voice, revealing endless sadness.

The people in the conference room didn't speak, they just looked at Bai Yi standing there, their hearts seemed to be stinged, and they also completely felt Bai Yi's loneliness and helplessness, which was sad to watch.

Those eyes, calm, but sad.
