Chapter 1038: Testing

Jingtian knew that Liu Yifei and Zhang Ran had a contradiction, although she didn't know what the contradiction was, but she felt that Zhang Ran was not particularly dissatisfied with Liu Yifei, and the problem should be Liu Yifei. If Liu Yifei figured it out one day, the matter would be over. She looked at Liu Yifei and introduced herself very kindly: "Senior sister, I am Jingtian, your junior sister, you can call me Tiantian." ”

Liu Yifei ignored Jing Tian, pulled Liu Xiaoli's arm, and said in disgust: "Mom, let's go, I don't want to see them, let's change places to eat!"

Liu Xiaoli smiled helplessly at Zhang Ran and said, "Teacher Zhang, let's go!

Zhang Ran waved his hand and said lightly: "Go ahead!"

Liu Xiaoli didn't say anything more, and hurriedly left with Liu Yifei.

Jing Tian looked at Liu Yifei's back, his brows furrowed slightly, this senior sister of his own seems to really hate the master, looking at the master's eyes is like looking at the enemy, and even hating herself!

Zhang Ran shook his head gently, secretly saying in his heart that it was a pity, in fact, Liu Yifei was more suitable for the role of Xia Xuejiao than Jing Tian. In recent years, Liu Yifei has been developing in Hollywood, and Chinese actors have a very low status in Hollywood and are the most discriminated against. She has not encountered many walls in Hollywood, and she has endured hardships a lot, and it can be said that she has seen all the situations in the world and greatly enriched her experience. Her acting skills have not only been honed, but also have a faint sense of loneliness and drifting, which is especially suitable for the role of Xia Xuejiao.

However, it was impossible for Zhang Ran to let Liu Yifei act, so he turned his head and said, "Don't stand stupidly, let's go in!"

After entering the hot pot restaurant, Zhang Ran and the others found the most remote position to sit down.

It didn't take long for the dishes to come up, and beef, hairy tripe, duck intestines, and so on were piled up on the table. Jing Tian rubbed his hands excitedly, ignoring the image of a lady, and stuffed it indiscriminately; Zhang Ran ate more gently, and it took a long time to stretch out his chopsticks.

Jing Tian stuffed a piece of tofu in his mouth and said vaguely: "Master, eat, why don't you eat it?"

Zhang Ran picked a piece of hairy belly and put it in the bowl, and said with a smile: "I'm losing weight, I'm going to act every once in a while, playing an astronomer, I'm too fat now, I don't look like a scientist at all, I have to make myself thinner." You can eat it yourself, don't worry about me!"

Jing Tian doesn't care about what Zhang Ran is playing, as a foodie who has eaten nutritious meals and protein powder for several months, now she only has food in her eyes. She didn't care about Zhang Ran, picked up a plate of beef, poured it into the pot, and poured a plate of hairy belly into the pot.

Jing Tian ate two plates of beef, three plates of hairy belly, and four plates of duck intestines in a row, and he was seven minutes full, slowing down the speed of eating. At this time, Jing Tian's gossip heart rose, and he asked curiously, "Master, what is the matter between you and Senior Sister?"

Zhang Ran said lightly: "Your senior sister has no talent, and she is unwilling to act hard, and she acts in bad movies in Hollywood all day long, which affects the reputation of her family, so she will be expelled from the school as a teacher! If you don't work hard to act, you will be expelled from the school as a teacher!"

Jing Tian knew that Liu Yifei's acting skills were not bad, but also very good, at least better than herself, she stuck out her tongue and said, "Liar, I don't believe it! Don't say it, I'll continue to eat!" As she spoke, she poured a plate of duck intestines into the pot.

Zhang Ran was amused by Jing Tian, he really liked his apprentice, his personality was really good! He smiled and said: "Tiantian, you have been training here for a few months, tell me about your training experience!"

Jing Tian thought for a while and said, "It's good, it's just that the first week is more uncomfortable, I can't sleep with soreness every night, and I can't get up in the morning! In addition, there are supporting physical fitness exercises every day, if there is a foundation for martial arts, then these high-intensity physical muscle training starts from scratch. I think the things I used to practice in the gym were too kind to me. Now the most content to be practiced every day is bounce, abdominal back muscles, and whole body muscles, and I will train with two different coaches. At first, I was tired and half tired from martial arts training every morning, and then continued to take fitness classes in the afternoon or evening. It's hard, but I'm able to handle it. The only uncomfortable thing is that you can't eat snacks and can't eat high-calorie foods. Speaking of this, Jing Tian picked up a duck intestine from the pot, put it in his mouth and chewed it, and said with a look of enjoyment: "The duck intestine is really delicious!"

When he saw Jing Tian in the training room, Zhang Ran felt that Jing Tian was practicing very well, but her temperament did not meet the requirements, and now it seems that there is really a problem, frowning: "Don't you feel lonely?"

Jing Tian swallowed the duck intestine and picked another one from the pot: "It's a little, but the situation is okay." I left home at the age of 12 and went to Peking to learn dance, and I got used to it. Speaking of this, she suddenly laughed: "Sometimes I feel homesick, but at this time, I say to myself, Tiantian, you have to persevere! When the training is over, you can make a movie with Master! When I think about it, I am immediately full of fighting spirit, and I don't feel lonely!"

After speaking, Jing Tian looked at Zhang Ran with a smile, with an expression of "Master, I'm very smart, please praise me".

Zhang Ran sighed in his heart, the real purpose of letting Jing Tian go to the United States for training is to let Jing Tian experience loneliness, because Xia Xuejiao, who Jing Tian is going to play, is a girl with a lonely heart and a particularly heavy sense of drift, and Jing Tian has a big personality, and even has no heart and lungs, so it is difficult to play such a role. The only way is to throw her into a foreign land and cut off all ties with everyone. In this case, even if she is very arrogant and heartless, she can also experience the loneliness of being alone in a foreign country.

I didn't expect this girl to be even more heartless than she imagined, and she didn't feel lonely in this situation!

Zhang Ran realized that he had made a mistake, and after Fan Binbin was training in Los Angeles, he felt a strong sense of loneliness. Now that I think about it, the key is that the director said to Fan Binbin, you are not the only candidate for the role, and after half a year of training, you will decide who to choose or not. Fan Binbin had a string in his heart and was under a lot of pressure.

A person is in a foreign country, she is not familiar with life, and no one can help her in this matter, so Fan Binbin's heart is very helpless, so she can only grit her teeth and persevere, and truly experience the loneliness of "being alone in a foreign land as a stranger".

Jing Tian's situation is different, because Zhang Ran told Jing Tian that she is the heroine of the movie, and Jing Tian does not have the pressure of Fan Binbin. When she was a little lonely, she thought that she could be the heroine of the movie, and she carried it, and she simply entered that state of loneliness and helplessness. Zhang Ran shouldn't tell Jing Tian that she is the heroine of the movie, but should say that she is not the only candidate for the role, and after the training is over, decide who to use!

Zhang Ran originally planned to start filming "No Way Away" after the E3 Game Exhibition ended, but now Jingtian's state does not meet the requirements, and the filming can only be postponed. Jing Tian has a big personality, and her enterprising spirit is not particularly strong, it seems that if she is not forced to the extreme, her potential will not be brought into play. Zhang Ran pondered for a while, and said with a pleasant face: "Tiantian, now that you are Xia Xuejiao, let's conduct a dialogue exercise to see your understanding of the role." ”

Jing Tian put down his chopsticks and said expectantly: "Okay, I'm already Xia Xuejiao!"

Zhang Ran asked, "Xuejiao, do you miss your mother?"

Jing Tian nodded and said, "I want to, I think about it in my dreams." ”

Zhang Ran said again: "Which mother do you want, is it Lin Yu's mother or Xia Xuejiao's mother." ”

In the story "No Way Back", Xia Xuejiao uploaded her consciousness to the Internet and became an online life. But she soon regretted it, because the Internet was more cruel than reality. It's just that after she uploads her consciousness to the online world, her body is occupied by other cyber lifeforms, and she disappears into the vast sea of people. Xia Xuejiao couldn't return to her body, so she seized Lin Yu's body, which uploaded her consciousness to the Internet, and lived as Lin Yu.

Jing Tian has been training hard during the day for the past few months, and has been reading the script and analyzing the characters at night. Faced with Zhang Ran's question, she said without thinking: "Of course it's Xia Xuejiao's mother." ”

Zhang Ran asked, "Then what are your feelings for Lin Yu's mother?"

Jing Tian thought for a moment and said: "I devoured part of Lin Yu's consciousness, but there is not much content to devour, in my bones I am Xia Xuejiao, and my mother is still the woman waiting in the small town in the northeast forest area." Regarding Lin Yu, I got her body, but I really couldn't love her relatives. ”

Zhang Ran said: "Do you really have no feelings for Lin Yu's mother at all?"

Jing Tian groaned and said, "No, I have gained part of Lin Yu's consciousness, and it is impossible not to feel anything about her family." I often dream of the day I left Lin Yu's house, when Lin Yu's mother saw me off. Every time I wake up, I always cry. Sometimes I can't help but call them. But I'm not Lin Yu after all, I can't face them, I can't treat them as my family, I can only wander outside. ”

Zhang Ran sighed softly, Jing Tian had put a lot of effort into studying the character, but he didn't enter Xia Xuejiao's heart, he said slowly: "Your test failed! You didn't really appreciate the loneliness and pain in the character's heart." Xia Xuejiao is so lonely and painful in her heart that she will cry in her dreams. In the face of these heart-wrenching questions I raised, how can you be as calm as you? An actor's character creation is a process of breaking oneself and rubbing the character's soul into the bones and blood to reorganize. The real purpose of letting you train in Los Angeles is to put you in an unfamiliar environment, let you feel the loneliness of being alone in a foreign land, and experience Xia Xuejiao's inner torment. The environment is provided to you, the script is given to you, and you don't even think about getting into the hearts of the characters. You've disappointed me, really, really disappointed!"

When Jing Tian heard this, his face was suddenly coated with a layer of white ash, and he was about to cry: "Master, I'll give me another chance, I didn't enter the state just now, I can, you let me try again." ”

Zhang Ran sighed and said, "If you don't have it in your heart, even if you try a hundred times, it's useless." You are my apprentice, I can give you another chance, but you are no longer the only candidate for Xia Xuejiao, I will find other actors to audition. You continue to train in the United States, and after three months, I will arrange for you to test with other actors, and then decide who to use, would you like it?"

Jing Tian knew that Zhang Ran was not joking, if after a few months, he still couldn't meet the requirements, he would definitely not use himself. Zhang Ran is a person whose drama is bigger than the sky, and he will not relax his requirements because he is his apprentice. She has been training for this play for more than three months, and if she wants to give up now, she will definitely not be reconciled, and nodded and said, "Master, I am willing!"

The corners of Zhang Ran's mouth raised slightly, and he said with satisfaction: "This is my apprentice, we can be beaten to death, we must not be scared to death!" From now on, you are Xia Xuejiao, not Jingtian, you must talk as little as possible and keep yourself quiet." When you have nothing to do, stay alone, ignore no one, don't do anything else, and experience the role with your heart! I hope you can walk into Xia Xuejiao's heart and feel the loneliness and sadness in her heart. Can you do it?"

Jing Tian nodded with great certainty: "I can!"
