Chapter 553: Addicted (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Brother Zhang, since you haven't written a book now, why don't you write the book Journey to the West?"

Jiang Hua took advantage of those bigwigs to chat with themselves, and he whispered to Zhang Chu to ask for the script.

However, Zhang Chu didn't eat this set at all, "Wait a minute, aren't you going to help shoot "Farewell My Concubine" now? Where can I have time to shoot this." ”

In fact, he was worried about Jiang Hua's directing ability.

He has always been an assistant director and has never shot any films independently.

If you directly let him shoot Journey to the West, I'm afraid I won't be able to control the film!

Anyway, so much time has passed, and Zhang Chu is not in a hurry to see this movie on the screen.

He wants to wait for Jiang Hua to practice his hands, of course, he doesn't have to invest in this training film, he goes to find those wronged bosses, and some people want to invite Jiang Hua to make movies.

Although there are fewer and fewer good works in Chinese-language films, the capacity of the entire film market is booming.

There are hundreds or thousands of domestic films every year, but there are less than 500 truly professional directors, and more and more actors, writers, and screenwriters have changed careers to become directors.

These people may even know about the process of making a movie in a few days, and it is even harder to expect them to shoot a great work!

Jiang Hua, as Xu Ji's assistant director, has a very high starting point, so it is easy to attract investment.

Zhang Chu's current idea is probably to borrow chickens to lay eggs, use other people's funds to let Jiang Hua practice his skills, and then hand over "Journey to the West" to him after proving that he can really master a blockbuster.

But Jiang Hua was a little anxious, "What singers have filmed the MV of "The Legend of Wukong", what a ghostly shot." ”

"Even if I write it to you, you don't have time to shoot it. "Zhang Chu used the trick of procrastination, but he didn't agree anyway!

Fortunately, Jiang Hua didn't dwell on it anymore, because the first auditioner was ready.

There is a stack of resume materials in front of Zhang Chu's seat, which has been placed in the order of the audition, and the actor's name is Zhang Guorong.

"Xiao Zhang, this is your own family. I sent him an invitation to audition and went with the electronic version, and I thought he wouldn't come. Xu Ji touched his beard and smiled very proudly.

The old child is probably like this, it is not a simple matter to invite Zhang Guorong, who is in a semi-retired state, to audition, how can people be regarded as a generation of emperor superstars in Xiangjiang.

In recent years, due to the influence of depression, he has rarely appeared in the outside world, and only occasionally has been photographed traveling side by side with Mr. Tang.

Some actors have to work hard to get the version of "Farewell My Concubine", while some people can receive the electronic version specially sent by the director while sitting at home!

"Although the makeup skills are very good now, it seems that something is not right to let a person in his 60s play it. ”

Zhang Chu silently muttered in his heart, where does this makeup technique have to be so clever to reach the point of rejuvenation?

The role of Cheng Dieyi in "Farewell My Concubine" needs to be played by three different actors, namely when he was a child, when he was studying art and when he was young.

Among them, the young actors in the first two stages have been found in the Peking Opera School, and now the actors in their youth are more important.

However, when he carefully checked his resume, he realized that his idea seemed to be a little wrong, this person seemed to be only 40 years old!

This timeline seems to be very disordered, just like his old cucumber painted green, directly 10 years younger and becoming a student pretending to be tender.

Wearing a Ruyi crown, his face is covered with white flour-like powder, he is wearing a cloak with blue trim on a yellow background, and the yellow silk flowers in his ears are contrasting, and the costume he wears looks a bit like fish scales.

In fact, it is really a fish scale armor, which is specially designed according to the homonym "fish" of "Yu", and Mr. Mei Lanfang once loved this design!

Compared with ordinary Danjiao, Yu Ji's appearance is less feminine, more resolute, and carries two swords, which is exactly the image given to Yu Ji during the war.

Yu Ji was originally a concubine with the army, if the wide sleeves were fluttering, the cloud clothes were gently swaying, and the pleated skirt was swaying to the ground, it would be too ridiculous!

In it, Cheng Dieyi's Peking Opera appearance has three, namely Yu Ji in Farewell My Concubine, Yang Yuhuan in the drunken concubine, and Du Liniang in the Peony Pavilion.

Now the audition scene is of course the most important Yu Ji, if Yu Ji passes, then the other two images are of course no problem!

"The spring mountain is the bone, and the autumn water is the god. What a Yu Ji!"

Hou Yong, the film's art consultant, couldn't help but praise Zhang Guorong when he saw him walking in with small steps.

And Shang Changrong also nodded, "The basic skills are a mess, but the appearance has that meaning." ”

Non-professional Peking Opera actors, there must be a gap in basic skills and figure, these are acquired things that can be made up, and everyone does not particularly value them.

Zhang Chu is actually difficult to see anything from his painted face, but he thinks that Li Yugang is also quite suitable for reverse, and his image is more beautiful than a woman.

"Guorong, you have also read this, do you think you can play Cheng Dieyi well?" Xu Ji asked casually, he was quite satisfied with Zhang Guorong's appearance, but he didn't know if he could play this role well.

No matter how good the acting skills are, it is impossible for people to play every role well, from about 20 years old to old age, which is very demanding for actors.

Zhang Guorong looked at the few people sitting opposite him, and he said with a smile: "There must be confidence, but what I said doesn't count, I have to show it to you." ”

"That's it, let's perform this paragraph. Xu Ji asked the staff next to him to put a piece of prepared printing paper, which was completely randomly drawn from the script, "Jiang Hua, you come to read Duan Xiaolou's lines." ”

Jiang Hua perked up, got up from the chair and walked to Zhang Guorong's side, and they each took the script and checked it.

Three minutes later, Zhang Guorong put the paper on the table on the side, and he closed his eyes in a state of preparation, and after a while, he stood up and nodded at Jiang Hua, signaling that he could start.

"Brother, I'm sorry, brother. Senior brother is not at home today, so he talks about it. ”

Originally, Zhang Chu was sitting precariously watching the audition, but as soon as Jiang Hua's line came out, his whole face wanted to twitch, what the hell?

I don't expect to speak at the level of an actor, but I can't read it according to the script, and the more serious words are very funny here.

Fortunately, Zhang Guorong's concentration was good, he turned his back to everyone, and said in a low and resentful tone: "Have you forgotten how we sang so popular?

"What's that?"

"From the beginning to the end!"

These two people don't seem to be in the same world, they are in two unrelated parallel worlds, even if their acting skills reach the level of kings, they can't bring Jiang Hua's bronze slag.

Suddenly, Zhang Guorong turned around, walked two steps to Jiang Hua's side, grabbed his arm, and looked at him with expectant eyes: "Senior brother, I want you to follow me..."

But the words that followed didn't come out at all, and he lowered his head a little and gave up, his tone full of frustration, "That's not right." ”

Immediately, the actor raised his head slightly, revealing a pair of clear eyes, which were full of tears and extremely humble.

"Just let me sing with you for the rest of my life, can't you?"

begging, expecting, all of them are presented in Zhang Guorong's performance.

Several judges sat up straight and watched the actor with wide eyes!

However, Jiang Hua was so angry that he read the lines in a tone that could choke people to death: "No, haven't you sung it for half your life?"

Suddenly, Zhang Guorong broke out, and his tone suddenly raised, "No!"

"It's a lifetime, a year, a month, a day, an hour, it's not a lifetime!"

The script of these just a few sentences was deduced by him with a sense of layering, and the three emotional changes were just right, which made Zhang Chu breathtaking!

A look, a look, and a movement, stunned Cheng Dieyi, who is not crazy, will not survive.

The fly in the ointment is Jiang Hua's goods, which stifled the moment of the explosion of acting skills, if another actor is changed to play the role, I believe it will be very different!

This is the actor-level acting skills, which makes everyone addicted!

***********************

The author is not a fan of Rong, but he feels that the role of Cheng Dieyi really can't find a too suitable actor.

Zunlong, who has had anything to do with movies, looks pretty good, and he also played a Peking Opera celebrity in the movie "Butterfly King", as for the rest of the actors, it's hard to imagine!

After all, this is just a supporting role in a chapter, and the protagonist will not have anything to do with Leslie Cheung, and he will still focus on writing books.
