Chapter 39: Asghar Farhati

After Qiao Mu washed, he bit the toast that Reba had baked, and went out.

At eight o'clock in the East China Sea, there was already some traffic jam.

This is a characteristic of the city, not even the traffic is blocked, what qualifications do you have to say that you are a metropolis?

Once the Focus had stopped in the theater parking lot, he staggered towards the agreed place.

Look up at the time, 8:46.

It seems that the congestion is not very serious.

In the hallway, he met the international friend, who was slowly sipping a takeaway coffee.

Qiao Mu went over and said, "Sorry, I'm late." ”

"No need to apologize, I came too early. The foreigner shrugged back and said. Then he took a sip of his coffee and said, "I forgot to introduce myself to you." My name is Asghar Farhati, I am from Iran and currently on vacation in the East China Sea. ”

Qiao Mu smiled and said, "It's nice to meet you, Asha. ”

"Me too," Farhati said. Seriously, Joe, I didn't expect you to be so young. ”

Qiao Mu said, "Thank you for the compliment, can we go in?"

Farhati looked at his watch and said, "Wait, I'll finish this cup of coffee first." ”

……

What is Major?

Qiao Mu didn't know that he had been in contact with the actor industry for a short time.

He didn't know what a Stanley driver was, nor did he know Henry Owen. I know basketball player Kyrie Irving.

So after Farhati analyzed how Willy was tragic, he suggested to Qiao Mu to make those changes. Qiao Mu was confused when he heard the professional terms, but it made Qiao Mu feel full.

Farhati had no choice but to say: "A good actor needs to pay attention to two parts, the actor's self-cultivation and the actor's role creation." ”

Qiao Mu asked: "The self-cultivation of actors? Isn't this a book?"

Farhati said with some delight: "Have you seen it? That's great, we can save a lot of steps." ”

Qiao Mu shook his head and said, "No, I was in the movie and saw the appearance of this book." ”

Farhati said, "Okay then. The so-called self-cultivation of an actor is a way of performing that completely integrates oneself into the role of the Tao. Reach the feeling that in life, you are Willy. ”

Qiao Mu thought about it, it seemed to make sense, and he said, "What does character creation mean?"

Farhati said: "It is to create the character and life of the character itself, and only a character with a complete life is more attractive." ”

Qiao Mu said, "What do you mean?"

"The script won't tell you why Willy walks with such a big stride or why Willie is always so tired," Farhati said. If you can understand Willy's character, and feel his life and his character, you will naturally show Willy's emotional changes and body movements. ”

Farhati paused and said, "When you become Willy, you can perform the deepest part of the character. ”

"Then how can I turn myself into Willy?" Qiao Mu asked.

"Didn't I analyze Willy's image for you?" said Farhati waiting.

Qiao Mu looked around embarrassedly and said, "Haha, is there a way for me to improve my performance level in a short period of time?" After all, I will be performing on stage tomorrow. ”

Farhati bowed his head and said, "There are small details that can make the character you create more visual. ”

Qiao Mu asked, "What way?"

Farhati took out his clothes and black-rimmed glasses from the pocket of his arms, and when he put them on, he looked very serious. He pointed not far away and said, "You first show Willie walking." ”

Qiao Mu recalled what he looked like on the stage yesterday, he slowly stood up in front of Farhati and walked slowly with steps.

"Stop, that's the first problem with your performance," Farhati said. ”

"Is there a problem?" Qiao Mu didn't know.

"Willie is the salesman he talks to a lot, and he shouldn't look so old, you should straighten up a little bit," Farhati said. Nobody wants to talk to an old salesman who can't even stand straight, right?"

When Qiao Mu heard it, it made sense, this guy is so powerful. He said happily, "What else?"

"After all, Willy is a very old salesman, and although he looks normal, his steps shouldn't be as heavy as yours, they should be lighter," Farhati said. And Willy is carrying a lot of pressure and contradictions, so he should be a very tired person, and his pace should be a little slower. ”

Qiao Mu thought about it, and according to Farhati's statement, adjusted his state. He bowed down slightly, and walked slowly with a broad, slow step.

Farhati clapped his hands and said, "It's good, but you need to be more tired." For example, you can loosen your shoulders a little bit. ”

Qiao Mu obeyed his command and lowered his shoulders.

"No, that's too obvious. ”

Qiao Mu lifted his shoulders a little more upward.

"Don't do that, you're in control. Joe, you should relax a little. ”

Qiao Mu raised his eyebrows, thought about it, and then returned to his normal state, his shoulders slightly widened outward, and then sank slightly.

This time Farhati was satisfied, and he said, "That's how it should be, you have to act according to Willy's character." ”

Qiao Mu nodded and said, "Thank you." Are there any problems with the lines?"

"Of course there is, I don't know why you want to learn from the voices of Europe and the United States," Farhati said. To be honest, every time I watch a drama in my country, I always tell the guys on stage, 'Put away your damn European and American accents'. This is your country, and you want to make it sound natural to the audience, rather than blindly learning the tone of Western drama. ”

To tell the truth, Qiao Mu also hates that tone very much. Although I have to admit that that tone can help vocalization, make his voice louder and louder. But Qiao Mu felt that the emotions in the language would be suppressed a lot, and there seemed to be only great joy and sorrow, great sorrow and great happiness.

That tone is subdued and frustrated, but it loses the sense of reality, but it loses the inside.

Farhati pointed out some other details of Qiao Mu's movements and verbal expressions, and the time passed almost a few hours.

Looking at the time, it's already 11:30.

Qiao Mu said: "Asha, are you in your country, do you often perform stage plays?"

Farhati shook his head and said, "No, I hate the stage show to death." ”

Qiao Mu asked, "Didn't you study drama art or something?"

"I studied theatre arts and stage direction, but I prefer to shoot films. I thought I would have been much happier if I had studied film. Farhati said.

"Then why do you want to come to the East China Sea for a vacation?" Qiao Mu asked.

"Joe, I've been busy for two whole years straight, I should relax. At the same time, I should think carefully about how to prepare my new work. Farhati said.

Qiao Mu asked curiously, "What work?"

Farhati laughed and said, "It's a little bit related to the salesman." ”

"Is this "Death of a Salesman" a remake?"

"No, I wanted to make a thriller drama about dignity and revenge. Farhati said.

Qiao Mu thought for a while and said, "The salesman's revenge?"

Farhati smiled and explained, "No, no. It's a teacher's revenge, and of course, a salesman's revenge. I haven't written the script yet, but I just have a rough idea. ”

Qiao Mu said: "The revenge of the teacher, is there a plot where the teacher is transformed by a mysterious organization or a plot where an alien creature is transformed?"

Farhati was surprised and said, "Why do we need to have these plots?"

Qiao Mu came to his senses, he said: "Haven't you seen superheroes? ”

Farhati explained, "Hey, Joe. I wanted to make a story about dignity and revenge, not a superhero movie. ”

Qiao Mu said: "Superhero movies can also shoot dignity and revenge very well. Have you seen the Dark Knight?"

"Of course, that's the only superhero movie I like," Farhati said. ”

"Really? I love this movie too. ”

"The Hollywood studios don't really like my style, otherwise I would have liked to make a superhero movie like that. ”

Qiao Mu had a good impression of this buddy, and he said, "Farhati, what is the name of the movie you made before?"

"I make a lot of films, and my most recent work is called 'The Past'. Still, I don't think you like my films. ”

"So be it. I'll go back and see, if your movie is good, I may be able to introduce you to some of my country's big film companies. ”

Farhati smiled and said disapprehantly, "Thank you." ”
