61. The 24K gold finger of the little yellow duck

In 1989, Zhang Weiping and Zhang Yimou met at a gathering in the entertainment industry. In 1996, Zhang Weiping invested 26 million soft sister coins in Zhang Yimou's "Something to Say", and finally only got 8 million yuan through the transfer of distribution rights, while Dong Ping, a film and television person who got the distribution rights, did 46 million, which made Zhang Weiping determined to set up his own company.

In 1997, New Picture Pictures was established in the imperial capital, with Zhang Weiping as chairman and Zhang Yimou as art director. The honeymoon period between the two is very long, and the relationship is also very deep, when Zhang Yimou became the chief director of the opening ceremony of the imperial capital Olympic Games in 2006, New Picture Pictures was also willing to suspend for three years.

On the way to the audition of the new picture company, Han Fei searched for this company on a certain encyclopedia with his mobile phone, and the strong combination of the two really has nothing to say, there is a box office for the box office, and there are awards for awards, and then how did the two break up? A question mark popped up in his mind.

The audition time was about ten o'clock, Han Fei cleaned himself inside and out, took a shower and washed his hair, and shaved by the way, two words, fresh.

The new picture is in Chaoyang District, which may be the safest area in China except for the middle X Sea, the office building is strangely repaired, the shape is similar to the front half of the toy gun played by children, and the color of the exterior wall is also quite vulgar.

"Hello, I'm here for the audition. ”

"Ah, you, you're ......"

The young lady at the front desk was about the same age as Han Fei, and seeing her fan-girl appearance, Han Fei smiled and nodded.

The girl had stars shining in her eyes and begged, "Can you sign for me?"

Han Fei said: "Okay, but you have to tell me the audition place first, and if you delay the director's time, then I will be guilty." ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I almost forgot to get down to business, and I went over here, down the hallway, and at the end, there was a conference room, and that was where the audition was. ”

"Thanks, where is my signature?"

"Here, here. The young lady took out a notebook from the drawer, signed the name of the big girl, and walked towards the conference room under the satisfied gaze of the fan girl.

The space in the building is not as big as Han Fei imagined, along the road through the office area, just a dozen meters, the old employees of the new picture are vaguely arrogant, unlike the young lady at the front desk, they glanced at Han Fei and continued to work, thinking about it, these people can boast that I am Zhang Yimou's partner, Gonghuang, Lao Jiang, Uncle Ge, what kind of big coffee I haven't seen, what kind of fresh meat is Han Fei.

The door of the conference room was closed, Han Fei knocked on the door, no one seemed to be there, and he didn't make any movement for a long time, there was no way, he had to sit on the bench in the corridor and wait, and he didn't know if today's audition was checked by the national teacher in person, Han Fei was worried. He looked at the time on his phone, it was only nine twenty, forget it, wait honestly.

The corridor is very quiet, no one is going this way, Han Fei is looking at the NBA's text live broadcast with his mobile phone with his head down, Mavericks VS Rockets, Texas Focus War, nostalgic for smartphones and 4G, otherwise I can watch the first quarter at this time.

"Hello, are you also here to audition?" A crisp and timid voice came from Han Fei's right.

When Han Fei raised his head and looked at the owner of the voice, both of them froze.

"Are you really Han Fei?"

"Are you Zhou Dongyu?"

"How do you know my name?" said the girl.

"Uh......"

Han Fei was stunned for a moment, this question is really hard to explain, at this time, the little yellow duck classmate is just an amateur, and she is not well-known at all, Han Fei can call her name completely by virtue of her golden finger, he thought about it, and had to prevaricate for a reason: "That, I heard the staff discuss it when I came over just now, and they said that a genius girl was chosen to be the heroine." ”

"No, no, I'm not a genius girl. Little Yellow Duck was a little shy, she thought about it, and said, "I've watched your TV series and movies, and the acting is really good, and you're here to audition?"

Han Fei replied with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Zhao went to our school to select actors before, and then I passed the first level, by the way, were you selected by the assistant director or art director?"

Speaking of this, the little yellow duck was happy, her eyes were bent into crescents, and she smiled: "I originally went to Jinling to take the art examination of the Dance Academy, but the assistant director came to shoot me, at first he said that Zhang Yimou's movie should choose the heroine, I thought he was a liar." ”

"Haha, whoever comes here thinks it's a liar. ”

"Yes, yes, it took me a long time to confirm the identity of the assistant director, and he carried a camera to shoot me in the front, side and back, but I was not in a very good state that day, and I felt stupid to shoot. ”

Han Fei pouted, what is a gold finger, this is called a gold finger, the reborn gold finger can only be regarded as the second grade gold finger, like the little yellow duck, it is a serious gold finger, full of gold, and people are still so light-hearted, I was not in a very good state that day, alas, people are more popular than people, looking at the other party did not deliberately show off his 24K gold finger, Han Fei wanted to buy it and hang himself with the fans.

is just an amateur art candidate, and he was selected as a "Mou Girl" after a while, which is quite a bit of "a court playing nine heavens". Think about it, who are the first two Mou girls, Gong Huang, Zhang Niangniang, a Chinese-speaking actress at the president mountain level, the luck of Little Yellow Duck is even more BUG than people like Da Tiantian.

Han Fei tried to ask again, "Are you auditioning here for the first time?"

The little yellow duck's head shook like a rattle, and he said: "No, no, I've been here for a few days, and the assistant director forces me to cry every day, I'm almost annoyed, and my tears are about to dry up, for fear that I won't meet the director's requirements." ”

Han Fei can't wait to stab the little yellow duck with a knife, girl, do you know that Dora hates you when she says this? The assistant director forces you to cry every day, which means that your heroine is as stable as a dog, and the director is training you, how do you feel about making us people who are to be determined.

"It's okay, you're a genius, you will definitely be able to meet the director's requirements. ”

"Hee-hee, then I wish you a good audition. ”

"Thank you. ”

……

In the other room, the space was cramped enough to fit two wooden sofas and a 25-inch TV.

Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping sat down in front of the TV, cinematographer Zhao Xiaoding and screenwriter Yin Lichuan sat on the side, and the rest of the assistant directors and art directors were each looking for a place to stand, and the TV was playing the video of the actress auditioning.

"No matter what method you use, just let her cry every time anyway, and just empathize slowly. ”

Zhang Yimou leaned over, squeezed out three bars on his head, and pointed to the heroine who was crying on the TV and said: "Don't worry, this kid is very smart, he will cry five or six times, seven or eight times, and he will be fine." ”

"Come on, I have to be a villain, really, forcing such a beautiful little girl to cry every day, I'm about to become a bully, and I feel guilty in my heart. Full-time assistant director Pu Lun said poorly.

Zhao Xiaoding looked at Pu Lun's pretending funny appearance, and replied with a smile: "Okay, isn't it all for the final film, don't come to this set." ”

"Director, the heroine should be fine, now this male protagonist?"

The first screenwriter Yin Lichuan stroked her hair, and she was also very satisfied with the crying heroine, this girl had light in her eyes, and her smile exuded a pure atmosphere, which was especially in line with Jingqiu in the original book. At first, when she changed the script, she was worried that it would be difficult to find such a pure girl to play Jingqiu, but now that she looks at it, the level of the national teacher's selection of actresses really doesn't have to be said, looking at the entire Chinese entertainment industry, no one dares to say that he is second.

Zhang Yimou's eyes were still staring at the actress on TV, watching the actress cry with different emotions, he was very satisfied, and said: "I'm hesitating now, I'm not too satisfied with the two young men who came to audition yesterday, meeting the original image is not the only criterion for our selection of this movie, what I want is the feeling of the actor itself, to let the story follow the temperament of the actor, rather than forcing the actor to fit the book." ”

"That's right, although the role of Jingqiu is heavy, the character is not complicated, the important thing is to show her purity and a little timidity in the face of love, but the third child is different, his character is very complicated, in my opinion, he is a bit like a poet, a bit like a love saint, more like a fearless warrior, but he is not illusory, he really exists. Producer Zhang Weiping, who has been silent, followed up.

"Let's take a look again, don't worry, let's start around April 10th, there are still forty days to go, you can try slowly. ”

Zhang Yimou unscrewed the water cup, took a sip easily, and said to Zhao Xiaoding: "Xiaoding, didn't you say that there is another actor coming to audition today?"

"Yes, I went to Nortel to find out that day, and it was about ten o'clock today, I don't know if I came. ”

"Ten o'clock, I'll see. Zhang Yimou looked at his watch, the pointer had already pointed to the position of 9:50, and said: "In this way, you go to the conference room to see if anyone is coming, and if you arrive, let him prepare and start the audition immediately." ”

"Okay. ”

Zhao Xiaoding nodded and walked out, only walked a few steps to the door of the conference room, and saw the little yellow duck and Han Fei who were chatting hotly at a glance, and said, "Xiao Han, it's here." ”

Han Fei hurriedly stood up and bowed, "Teacher Zhao is good." ”

"Come in with me. Zhao Xiaoding took the opportunity to push open the door of the conference room, and there was a lot of space inside, enough for the auditioning actors to display their talents.

"You can prepare first, the director is still in a meeting, and I have to go back again, but I won't wait too long, and I will behave well. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Zhao, it's okay, you can get busy first. ”

When Zhao Xiaoding went out, he told the little yellow duck again: "Winter rain, you have to cry today." ”

The little yellow duck couldn't cry or laugh, pouted, and replied: "Got it." ”
