Chapter 92 casting is underway
Chapter 92 casting is underway
Wearing sunglasses, he walked to the door of a room and saw the word "casting" written on the door sign, and a young man was sitting on a chair waiting at the door.
"This is where the casting is?"
In order to prevent mistakes, Xiao Wu still asked.
"Yes, you're here for the casting? You have to go to the room over there and register first, in the order of the number given. ”
Dong Liang looked at the person who asked the question, why did he come to participate in the casting and wear sunglasses, and his first impression on the judges was not good. And he didn't come until now, and I don't know if the crew still asked him to register? . Hey?!How did he just go in!
Xiao Wu didn't care what he thought, knocked on the door, and then directly pushed the door open and walked in. When I entered the door, a girl was talking lines, and I couldn't help but look back when I saw someone coming in.
"Who are you, why did you come in without calling you?"
There were three people sitting on the judges' bench, Zhou Xingchen in the middle, a middle-aged man in his forties who was a little mixed-race on the left, and a man on the right who was estimated to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old with a little white-faced potential, and it was he who spoke.
"I'm sorry, Brother Zhou, I was delayed on the way. ”
Xiao Wu ignored the man who reprimanded him, and spoke directly to Director Zhou.
"Oh, you're finally here, I can't wait to start first. But I've only seen a few. ”
Director Zhou saw that it was Xiao Wu, and immediately stood up, then looked at the girl who didn't know what to do and said:
"You go out and wait for a while, wait five minutes and then call you in. ”
After the girl went out, Director Zhou introduced to the other two people:
"Let me introduce to you, this is the Internet god Xiao Wu. I don't need to say more about his various titles. He's more famous on the Internet than I am now. At the same time, he is also the screenwriter and script writer of this play, it should be said that it is because of him that this movie and the crew of "Journey to the West" are created. I was specially invited to participate in the casting today, come, Brother Xiao, this is my assistant and the assistant director of this play, director Jiang Fengjiang, the two of us have collaborated on many movies. ”
Director Zhou introduced Xiao Wuxian to the middle-aged man in his forties who was a little mixed-race, Xiao Wu took off his sunglasses, stepped forward and shook his hand, but he didn't expect Director Jiang Feng to be very enthusiastic about him, took his hand and said:
"I've admired the name for a long time, I've been thinking about what the Internet god Xiao Wu looks like, but I didn't expect to see it today, it's such a sunny and heroic big boy! Your appearance should be mixed with our business! You must sign me later, that girl in our family is your die-hard fan!"
"You have won the award, I am all in vain, and I am far worse than Director Jiang. Prizes!"
Xiao Wu was also modest, and then Director Zhou introduced him to the young man who reprimanded him just now:
"This is the producer of this show, the young and promising Ji Mocheng Ji Zong, you are close in age, how close you are. ”
After hearing Director Zhou, Xiao Wu knew who he was this season, and it turned out to be a film investor.
"Hello. ”
Although he was reprimanded when he first entered the door, he didn't know it after all, so Xiao Wu also shook his hand politely. But the two didn't say much, Xiao Wu could see that this person was a little arrogant.
After a few people sat down and chatted for a few words, Ji Mocheng said, "Let's continue, there are still many people to watch in the afternoon." ”
Director Zhou glanced at him, then looked at Xiao Wu and said, "Then let's continue." ”
When the girl returned to the room, she couldn't help but be stunned to see that the person who had just come was sitting on the judges' seat. Then I re-enacted the lines I had just spoken.
This girl is looking for the role of Chun Thirty Niang, Xiao Wu looked at her appearance, and then looked at her performance, so he crossed her in his heart.
The role of Chun Thirty Niang is an important leading role in "Journey to the West", from her "money landing, people are not guaranteed" led to Bai Jingjing, leading to plots such as the Bull Demon King. So this character must be an acting school. And to perform the kind of feeling that has been through the wind and dust, but the heart is ruthless. And this girl is estimated to have just graduated from school, has not had much life experience, and she looks a little young, which is really not compatible with Chun Thirty Niang.
Sure enough, the girl was told to go back and wait for news, which was a euphemism to tell her that she was not chosen.
Here is the young man waiting at the door.
"Hello judges, my name is Dong Liang, I am from the Performance Department of Kyoto Film and Television Academy, and I am now in my senior year, and the role I applied for is Bodhi Ancestor. ”
Bodhi Ancestor is a very important role in "Journey to the West", he is still a robber in the play, and finally a tour guide, among all the supporting actors, he also has a lot of roles.
"Have you watched "Journey to the West"? What do you think of the Bodhi Ancestor in "Journey to the West"?"
Sure enough, Director Zhou also attaches great importance to this role.
"Bodhi Ancestor, in "Journey to the West", should be the kind of real master with boundless mana, this immortal is very mysterious, "Journey to the West" does not explain his past and goings, so no one knows where he came from, but his skills are very deep. Sun Wukong only learned a few supernatural powers from him, and he turned the world upside down. But he looked very timid, he knew that Sun Wukong would get into trouble in the future, so he told Sun Wukong in advance not to tell others that he was his disciple in the future. So, this is a real hermit. ”
It can be seen that Dong Liang has done his homework for this role.
"Well, it can be seen that you have studied the person of Bodhi Ancestor. But the Bodhi in our drama may subvert your imagination. You take a line and look at it, and then according to your imagination, you can play it according to the dialogue in the script. ”
After Director Zhou finished speaking, Jiang Feng took out a piece of paper about Bodhi from a pile of scripts on the table and handed it to Dong Liang. Dong Liang took the script, sat down on the chair next to him, picked up the paper and read it.
"Brother Xiao, what do you think of him?"
Director Zhou turned sideways to discuss with Xiao Wu.
"The role of Bodhi Ancestor, the appearance is not important, the important thing is to be able to perform three different styles of three roles, I am worried that his understanding of Bodhi Ancestor is too deep, which will affect the judgment of this role. After all, the Bodhi here doesn't have the image of a master at all. ”
"It depends on his understanding, if he can read the lines he gives him carefully, he should be able to find something different, after all, the lines you designed are too ordinary. ”
Zhou Xingchen admires the dialogue in "Journey to the West", and in his opinion, just this seemingly funny dialogue that can make people calm down and think after laughing is enough to reflect the value of this script. Not to mention the amazing plot ideas full of new imagination.
The two chatted for a while, and after a few minutes, Dong Liang stood up and said that he was ready to perform, so Director Jiang Feng went up to play a rivalry with him.
………………………….
Bodhi: We didn't bring you here, you brought us here in a coma.
Supreme Treasure: I must have missed Jingjing so much.
Bodhi: Yes, when you fainted, you called this Jingjing 98 times.
Supreme Treasure: Jingjing is my mother.
Bodhi: There is another named Zixia who has been called 784 times,
Supreme Treasure: Huh!?
Bodhi: Seven hundred and eighty-four times....... this Zixia must owe you a lot of money.
……………………….
In just a few sentences, it will soon be finished. This is the footage of the Supreme Treasure once again crossing and encountering Bodhi and several robbers. To be honest, the role of Bodhi in these scenes is just a transition, but Dong Liang's performance made Xiao Wu's eyes light up. He actually captured the spirit of the character of Bodhi, as an immortal but with a human flavor. This Dong Liang is a bit interesting.
Xiao Wu looked at Zhou Xingchen, and just met the eyes that Director Zhou looked at, which was to let him express his opinion.
"Well, good acting. I want to ask, Dong Liang, how did you come up with the idea of acting like this?"
Xiao Wu pondered the words for a moment and asked.
As soon as Dong Liang entered the room, he saw the person sitting on the judge's seat who was asking him at the door just now. Originally, he thought that he would come to participate in the casting like him, but he didn't expect that he would be a judge. Fortunately, I didn't say the wrong thing just now. It's just that he is a little curious about this judge. Why do you want to wear sunglasses for Mao? Does he have an eye disease or is he a big star? I heard Director Zhou call him Brother Xiao just now, which big star is surnamed Xiao?
"Hello Mr. Xiao, this is how I understand this role. First of all, these lines of dialogue are very ordinary language, not the feeling of a superior person as I imagined. How to put it, it's a plain and very human feeling. I have watched the "Legend of Wukong" by the Little Five Gods, which has a dialogue between Bodhi and Jin Cicada, which is also a very ordinary dialogue, and it is also very human. And this is also the work of the little five gods, I wonder if the little five gods also hope that these immortals can be a little more human. ”
Dong Liang's answer made Xiao Wu feel very satisfied. And listening to his tone, he seemed to be still his fan, and couldn't help but turn his head to Director Zhou and say:
"I feel pretty good. ”
"Well, the lad understands a lot. Well, you'll give your contact details to the staff and you're ready to move on to the next round. If there are no competitors for this role below, then the role is yours. Also, I'll come over and pick up a character script about Bodhi and go back and read it. ”
Seeing that Xiao Wu approved, Director Zhou also felt that this young man acted very well, so he settled him first.
"Thanks to Director Zhou, thanks to Mr. Xiao, I will definitely think about this role seriously. ”
Dong Liang almost jumped up happily, originally he heard that many big stars came to compete for the role in "Journey to the West", he thought to himself that he was only afraid that he would be out of play, but he didn't expect that he would enter the final selection. When he walked out of the house, he vaguely heard Director Zhou say, "I'm still your fan." Well, who's a fan of who? It's not going to be me, but my idol is the Little Five Gods. Wait, that person was wearing sunglasses just now, and Director Zhou also attached great importance to his opinion. Wouldn't it?
