Zhou Bai and Zhang Ziyi are going to make a movie about the great director Zhang Yimou, and this news has caused a lot of sensation on the campus of Chinese opera, and the news is spreading at an alarming speed.

After Zhou Bai took the movie script, he didn't spread the news, and the people in the dormitory knew, but he was afraid that this news would bring something to Zhang Ziyi, so he told everyone to keep it secret, and at first this news was only known to a few people in a small range.

However, three days later, Zhang Yimou's crew came to the Chinese opera to "pick people", and the news that Zhang Yimou had designated Zhang Ziyi as the heroine couldn't be covered, of course, Lao Mouzi didn't need to cover it, and the news that Zhou Bai also had a performance spread together.

said that it was to pick people, but in fact, Lao Mouzi's first target was Zhang Ziyi, to put it bluntly, it was just going through the motions, of course, few people knew about it.

The three main characters are all Chinese opera people, Sun Honglei only graduated last year, Zhou Bai and Zhang Ziyi are simply sophomores, and the professional strength of Chinese opera students is undoubtedly revealed, otherwise how could they be favored by big directors.

At the beginning, knowing that Zhou Bai was going to play Zhang Yimou's play, Liu Ye and the others were stunned with surprise, and they were also happy for Zhou Bai with envy.

Listening to Zhou Bai explain that this is a small role, they felt that it was a pity, and when Zhang Yimou came to the Chinese drama to "pick" Zhang Ziyi as the heroine, it really shocked them.

Zhang Ziyi is about to become popular, this is everyone's consensus, Lao Mouzi is good at filming actresses, everyone on earth knows that with his current status in the domestic and foreign film industry, it is strange that the heroine is not popular.

Seeing that Zhou Bai, Hu Yu, and Zhang Ziyi all received the play one by one, everyone's envy was also hot, and they began to pay attention to the crew that started filming recently, hoping to get a good role.

There are generally several situations for Chinese opera students to take over the play, the first is that the crew takes the initiative to invite, the second is recommended by senior brothers and sisters or acquaintances and friends, and the third is to find some recruited actors and crews to audition, which is almost these.

Of course, there are some special circumstances, such as the crew that cooperates with Chinese opera, the recommendation of school teachers, etc., or the director happens to see that you feel suitable for a certain role, and directly looks for you, but this is still relatively rare.

There are a lot of scenes that have started filming, but there are not many suitable ones, and they don't have any ideas about the small supporting roles in TV series, to put it bluntly, some of them can't look at it, and some simply go to take on commercials, and make some money while having fun.

When Lao Mouzi came to the Chinese opera to "pick people", Zhou Bai also went to meet the director, this was the first time he met Lao Mouzi, and he had only heard his name but not anyone before.

Lao Mouzi is very kind, there are a lot of wrinkles on his face, he looks older than his age, and he greets him kindly when he sees Zhou Bai.

"Your play is very good, it can be seen that there is no wasted time in school, it is indeed a solid foundation, when I saw you that day, I felt that you should play the role of Luo Changyu, and seeing you up close today affirmed my thoughts even more. Lao Mouzi inevitably affirmed Zhou Bai first.

"Thank you Director Zhang for your attention, I will continue to work hard. Zhou Bai behaved very modestly, and he didn't feel that he was really powerful because of Lao Mouzi's praise, it would be too naïve to think like that.

As an actor, it is his duty to act well, but in China alone, there are more people who can act well, and there are not many who can appear on the movie screen in the end, to put it bluntly, it is a matter of opportunity.

A director of Lao Mouzi's level, even if he doesn't look for Zhou Bai, as long as he opens his mouth to recruit actors, there are not 1,000 but 800 actors who want to play his movies, and no one is irreplaceable except himself.

Acting modest and low-key does not mean that you pretend to be a grandson, flattering and kneeling and licking Lao Mouzi, in other words, even if you flatter and kneel and lick Lao Mouzi, he may not look at you squarely, he is a very assertive person.

It can be seen from the development of Lao Mouzi that he is a very low-key person, he never speaks, and he is not radical in filming.

It's not that Lao Mouzi is a white lotus, but that people's forced qualifications are placed there, and since cooperating with Zhang Weiping, basically Zhang Weiping will fry it, in fact, Lao Mouzi really doesn't like to engage in the east and the west.

"During this time, I have been thinking about the script well, you can figure out the role of Luo Changyu more, although there are not many scenes, it is not easy to play a good performance. Lao Mouzi told me that it is still in the preparation period of the crew, and it will be a few months before the filming starts.

"Well, I will. Director, I'm going to have long hair, right, it's too short now. Zhou Bai nodded and said, and then asked.

"Yes, keep your hair longer, the fifties were all that simple hairstyle, and then your image will not be as good as it is now. Lao Mouzi said with a smile, he was very satisfied with Zhou Bai, there were some things that Zhou Bai had already thought about without him telling him.

"Okay, I won't cut my hair before filming starts, and I'll cut it after I join the group, it doesn't matter about the image, if I can't accept this in filming, then I will study for the past two years. Zhou Bai said calmly.

Lao Mouzi didn't say anything more, among the actors he met, Zhou Bai was not the most peculiar one, and the main reason for meeting Zhou Bai was to leave a phone number to facilitate communication, the crew was still being formed, and the filming time was still long.

In fact, Zhou Bai's life soon calmed down, and the crew will gather to start filming in September, and there are still more than two months to go, Zhou Bai only needs to wait for the notice to join the group.

Zhou Bai as the titular male number one and the actual male number two have not many roles, but since he has taken over the play, he has to think carefully, this is the first role he plays, and he doesn't have to deal with it.

"My Father and Mother" is adapted from the novel, Zhou Bai simply found the novel to read carefully, combined with the script and began to outline the relationship between the characters, write a short biography of the characters, and began to find some materials in the fifties to read.

Compared with the novel, in fact, Luo Changyu's role in the movie has been deleted a lot, and the interception is also a part of the novel, and the climax scene in the script is Zhao Di chasing Luo Changyu to send dumplings to the city to find him in the snowstorm, and then the scene belonging to the young father and mother is over.

If you shoot according to the novel, Luo Changyu is indeed the male protagonist, but the movie is a movie after all, and the length and focus are different from the novel.

The role of Luo Changyu, 22 years old, is a native of Dongguan, the county seat, after finishing high school, he also studied in a crash normal school, graduated at home, heard the county government beating gongs and drums to recruit teachers, so he signed up, and then came to Sanhetun.

It turns out that Zheng Hao, the actor in history, is of the right age, but he doesn't look like he came to the county seat, Zhang Ziyi plays Zhao Di who is more like a person in the city than him, just simple but not bookish, but more like a rural person when he puts on a uniform, which is really not outstanding, and Lao Mouzi probably did it on purpose.

Time passed quickly in Zhou Bai's careful study of the script and materials, and at the end of the semester, Zhou Bai decided to stay in the capital, but before that, he wanted to send Yuan Yu back.
