Faced with the question of selecting experts, Ren Yuqin took a slight breath and said lightly and sincerely:

"I don't like to teach literature, I just think that if you read 10,000 books, you have to travel 10,000 miles. I am very grateful that I have caught up with the good era when the country has just resumed the college entrance examination.

However, in the years when I was studying, the national conditions were poor, and a lot of ancient cultural research could only be on paper, and when I was at Beijing Normal University, I often liked to ask teachers for some details, and they only had textual opinions, and they couldn't answer them.

So I have always had an opportunity to observe and figure out the literary and artistic life of the ancients up close, and this time I happened to learn that the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" did not choose acting skills and acting qualifications, so I wanted to try it. ”

When she said this, she slowed down slightly, and was about to go down, but an expert interjected a question.

"Then if you are chosen, after filming this "Dream of Red Mansions" in the future, how do you plan your follow-up life?"

Ren Yuqin subconsciously groaned: "This ...... To be honest, I didn't think much about it, time can change a person a lot. I don't know if I'm suitable for acting, but if I perform well this time, I can prove that I have this talent.

In the future, if there is a suitable and professional script, of course I do not rule out trying it, and if there is no script that integrates with my interests, maybe I will concentrate on teaching and researching. Perhaps, I am not a dedicated actor with this mentality, I don't think I can play anything like anything, I can only say that there are roles like me, then I will figure it out and play it. ”

This answer is actually very risky.

If all the people on the stage today are the selectors of China Film or CCTV Department, with this kind of "disrespectful" answer, it will be over immediately.

So far, none of the candidate girls have said that.

People who are born as actors all use "let me play any role I challenge" as a symbol of dedication and honor.

Just like those Hollywood big names, they have to boast that they have the experience of "gaining weight for the sake of playing a fat man and losing weight for the sake of playing a thin man", so as to show their dedication and sacrifice.

Even Aamir Khan of the Three Kingdoms made a wrestling movie, and he had to emphasize that he was "filming the thinnest part of the plot first, then the fattest part of the plot, and finally the plot of the moderate weight and strongest part".

When asked by the media, "Then why don't you shoot from thin to fat, save a little toss", he also had to answer very correctly: "Because I'm afraid that I will put the fat part at the end, I'm afraid that I won't have the perseverance to lose weight again."

As for the 2019 Oscar-winning movie "Green Book", there is actually a similar joke - the guy who played the supporting role of the low-level Latino poor white man is actually the muscular male Prince of Aragon in "The Lord of the Rings" 20 years ago.

But people just want to take on this kind of self-destructive image fattening role of "pot-bellied and poop-type big stomach king", showing how much they have the spirit of sacrifice for their careers.

It can't be said that this spirit is wrong, but in the values of non-showbiz people, this spirit is a bit perverted.

Just like Zhou Jielun's "what kind of person he is like, the script is tailor-made to create a protagonist who does not need to act and has the same personality as himself", it is not necessarily bad.

Why do actors have to toss themselves and take pride in challenging people who are not like them? It is also very right to play a character that is consistent with his own natural design all his life, in terms of artistic effect.

Ren Yuqin's words just now actually mean this:

I was born with Lin Daiyu's delicate and transparent temperament, appearance, and temperament, and if I play this role, I will play it, and I don't think I can do it. In the future, my sister will not challenge for the sake of challenge, if there is no role like sister, then stop here, and go back to continue teaching.

These words won the hearts of several experts from the writers' association on the stage.

Within cultural circles, there is also a chain of contempt. Those who come from the writers' association always have to look down on others.

Although the film association makes a lot of money and has much greater social influence, in the eyes of those poor but self-exalted writers, it seems to have become a vulgar thing.

However, the relevant cultural departments have also taken this set, and most of the leading positions have always been produced among writers or propaganda cadres, at least playwrights and musicians. I won't let people who make movies and TV be BU chiefs.

"This little girl is nice and has very positive values. Literature and art are the most righteous way of art. One expert couldn't help but think.

Then everyone made eye contact, and the leading expert spoke, and improvised a proposition: "Seeing that your resume is also from Gusu, and Lin Daiyu is also from Gusu, I will give you a chance to recite "Funeral Flower Yin" in ancient pronunciation, and see how your knowledge of ancient Chinese phonology and exegesis is." ”

The pronunciation of ancient Chinese is different from that of modern Mandarin, but is close to the gap between Cantonese and Wu, so modern people need to learn phonological exegesis when they figure out ancient poetry and literature.

To take the simplest example, in Mandarin, the pronunciation of ING and ENG is different, but in Cantonese it is the same, so there are so many Tang poems that can be pressed into ING/ENG rhyme in Cantonese.

The U/V in Mandarin also has a completely different rhyme, but in some Wu language areas south of Huiji, it can be read as the same rhyme, for example, the word "reading" is "reading (xu)" in some Wu languages, so that the "bamboo silk tobacco sells the emperor's industry" in Tang poetry...... Liu Xiang didn't read" rhymed.

In the poem "Funeral Flower Yin", there are several insidious ancient and modern rhymes, and there is also a typical problem of "it rhymes in ancient Wu language".

For example, the three rhymes of the second Que 124 sentences of "cherish the spring twilight / no place to release / come and go" should be rhymed, but in Mandarin, "twilight / place" is the rhyme of U, and "go" is the rhyme of V, which should be borrowed from the U/V rhyme ancient Wu reading method of "Emperor Ye Xu/not reading" mentioned above.

After all, Cao Xueqin is a generation of people, and he wrote that Lin Daiyu was from Gusu, so naturally Lin Daiyu's "Funeral Flower Yin" also conforms to the rules of rhyming in ancient Wu language.

In the early 80s, because most of the poor students did not have tape recorders, and those who could afford tape recorders had few opportunities to go to the literary research institutions at the level of Beijing Normal University to study this problem, this topic became very difficult. If you are a northern candidate who is born without understanding the Gusu dialect, it will add a layer of difficulty.

However, after Ren Yuqin heard the question, she was greatly relieved.

This is bumping into her major, and it seems that the experts just want to see if she is serious about studying in college.

At that moment, she cleared her throat and recited "Funeral Flower Yin" in the well-documented Wu Nong soft language with a slight Ming and Qing ancient pronunciation.

"Is that how you read it?" A certain expert on the stage actually asked the chief examiner who asked the question softly, and it was obvious that not everyone of the experts could read it.

"That's it, the foundation is very good. Being able to pronounce the three rhymes of the couplet of 'cherishing spring twilight/no release/coming and going' shows that the ordinary cultivation skills are already very extraordinary. The questioner nodded slightly, and he was a little proud.

As soon as the so-called connoisseur makes a move, he will know if there is one. The top red master, as soon as he heard that the other party could pronounce the ancient rhyme of Wu Nong's soft language in "Funeral Flower Yin" correctly, there was no need to watch the rest.

A group of examiners then tested the ancient etiquette and the games of the ancient literati, and nodded frequently.

In the end, there is finally an examiner who is not from the mouth of the association and who accompanies the last seat today, and he will also come up with a question.

This examiner is a film and television mouth, and just now he watched Ren Yuqin's various Chongwen and suppressed the film, but in fact, he was a little unhappy in his heart. However, the officials in charge of the matter are all literary, and he can't make trouble.

At this moment, it was his turn to ask questions, and he also knew that it was impossible to test the problems of film and television acting, and the other examiners would definitely not agree, so he made a move and prepared to make things difficult from a different angle.

"That's it, the role of Lin Daiyu is different from other characters, that is the only one in the whole play who has a role in playing the qin, I don't know if this classmate has a talent for musical attainments? Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't, the part of 'Daiyu Fuqin' can be used as a stand-in. ”

This question is definitely very difficult in 84. Because in history, when Miss Chen played Lin Daiyu, she temporarily made up for two days, roughly practiced the fingering posture correctly, and then did not use the substitute for the mirror.

Otherwise, this kind of shot should be done by a faceless "hand replacement".

But even if Miss Chen learned the fingering posture, the yin picking effect of her playing was far from enough, so when shooting, she did not actually record the simultaneous sound from her, but recorded a master playing the audio track in advance.

After listening to this exam question, several other examiners who were born in the Association felt that they were making a big fuss.

After all, even if you can't play the piano, you can be a stand-in, which shouldn't affect the selection decision at all.

"I can give it a try, but I don't have many tunes. Ren Yuqin didn't know the inner activities of the examiners, so she could only bite the bullet.

At this moment, she was a little grateful that she had so many opportunities to practice expensive musical skills when she traveled with Senior Gu. When she was studying in 80 years, if she hadn't followed Gu Biao to rub so many aristocratic educational equipment from the Foreign Affairs Academy, she really couldn't afford to practice these expensive skills.

I should be even more grateful to Senior Gu for the few times of "I can only hum, I don't know how to record music", and he practiced Ren Yuqin hard.

"Do you still play the piano?" the other experts were slightly surprised.

A few minutes later, according to Ren Yuqin's request, the crew got a zither, Ren Yuqin adjusted it a little by herself, then thought about it, and began to play "Love Jiangshan and Love Beauty More Beautifully" that Gu Biao asked her to help record the score.

No way, she usually practices the guitar more and plays less guzheng, so she hasn't practiced any real ancient songs.

However, this kind of slightly exuberant and easy to convey emotions is even more lofty in the ears of non-music professionals, after all, everyone is a layman watching the excitement.

"Shhh...... This is the heaven-made Lin Daiyu. ”

"This classmate, what's this piece called?"

"It was written by a friend of mine, and there is no name for the time being. It is also inconvenient for me to reveal the author. ”

"It's actually written by a contemporary? I'm ashamed, I thought I was lonely and didn't know about ancient songs. I didn't expect that among your friends, there are also such masters, it is really like things to gather people and groups to divide people. ”

"You passed, prepare for it in the next few days, and then prepare to participate in the actor training class to study. ”

"Thank you, judges!"
