213 Drama
At Christmas, Chi Chi was invited by a TV station to do an event, and it was already seven o'clock in the evening when he rushed back to the company, and he still had a big meal with a group of employees in the company.
Of course, it's basically someone else eating, she watched.
The next day, she attended a film seminar just in time for the New Year.
This year's film industry is not very prosperous, after the box office blowout of the Spring Festival stalls, the results of the follow-up films are a little unsatisfactory, and several companies that have made box office bets have even reached the verge of bankruptcy due to the rupture of the capital chain.
A group of senior filmmakers drank tea around the round table, watching those movies with big productions, big marketing, big stars but no big achievements, and their hearts were a little chilly.
Seven or eight years ago, the country's film box office market suddenly entered a stage of exciting and rapid expansion, and the so-called "high box office" soared from tens of millions to hundreds of millions...... Some people shouted that the money was coming, and then plunged headlong into the whirlpool of hot money, and some people shouted that the wolf was coming, worried about the development of the entire film industry.
As it turned out, they were all right.
"A few days ago, I watched an idol drama and a group of young people ...... It's not as good as the kindergarten children to play, this is also called an actor? "Let's chew two puffs of cigarette butts, a certain old artist said that he was very tired, "Back then, it was difficult for us to get 100,000 yuan to arrange a scene, but now these people are smashing this kind of garbage for hundreds of millions of dollars, the times are really different, money is not money anymore, and movies are no longer movies." ”
"The routine, the routine has changed."
The bearded director of Gong Xingshu is holding a chocolate bar and clicking and gnawing.
I think when they sat together for a meeting, it was all smoky, and after the meeting, who can go to a restaurant in the alley to have a drink and then have a two-pound belly, now it's good, smoking is prohibited in public, Gong Xingshu used to gnaw on cigarette butts like them, and today when he thought of Youchi Chi, he replaced the cigarette with a chocolate bar, and there was cream in it, and a bite made him tired and uncomfortable.
Glancing at the girl sitting in the corner without saying a word, Gong Xingshu took another bite.
Gong Xingshu has always been the focus of the audience, he glanced at Chi Chi, and naturally some people followed his gaze and looked over.
"In fact, young people also have good ones, like Chi Chi, there are awards, there is a box office, young people like it, and our wife also likes it."
Everyone knows that Gong Xingshu wants to cooperate with Chi Chi, even if he sells him a face, many people have to hold Chi Chi a little, no, there is an old man who said good things about Chi Chi.
"It's too easy for young people to make money nowadays, at the beginning we called poor art, but now it's good, poor is gone, art is gone, we are in this business, what artistic ideals are really there, and can really implement their artistic ideals, like other industries, are rare, think about it, if you are forty years younger with this old face, you are praised by a group of people every day for being handsome, not only praise you for money, you will give you money if you stand still, are you standing, or standing?"
"Isn't Chi Chi praised every day, how can she always film honestly?"
"Chi Chi can film well because she is amazing, can you take the Golden Butterfly before you are twenty years old?"
When middle-aged men play poor, it is angry and funny, they tilt the topic to Chi Chi Chi, and they can't do anything, and in the end, they have to let Chi Chi speak.
"It's hundreds of years old, what's the point of pulling the little girl in the competition?" Gong Xingshu grinned and drew people's attention back to himself.
"Now the people who can put aside this chat are peers, they are peers and fellow travelers, a movie road is long, let's walk slowly, walk for thirty or fifty years and hand it over to the next generation, and then give it to the next generation in thirty or fifty years, they all say that art wants soil, and when we die these old trees, think about whether we can leave the most fertile soil to the next generation, and don't complain about feng shui when the time comes.
complaining about a lot of bad movies, think about why your good films can't be sold and you can't make money, no one can circle a place for the rest of their lives, waiting for others to please themselves......"
Gong Xingshu talked eloquently, talking about the present and future of the film industry, criticizing bad movies, and also those so-called conscientious filmmakers.
The mistakes of an industry can never be attributed to one party, and everyone has to reflect on their mistakes, and it is a hooligan to put themselves in the position of the victim at will.
The entire film industry is carried away, those who want to make money are now dizzy, and those who can't make money are also dizzy now. Gong Xingshu knows very well in his heart that those companies that rushed into the film and television industry have died to let people know that this industry is a market and not a gold mine after all, so that investors can be rational, and what domestic films need now is a rational market.
Chi Chi, who combed her neat short hair, wore a set of black pants today, and wore an agate carved sweater chain on her chest, she lowered her head and wrote notes, and the chain on her chest shook lightly with her movements.
Gong Xingshu, whose gaze secretly drifted over, only felt that his heart was also shaking gently.
Shook it......
That's a little dizzy......
"How are you going to spend the New Year?"
After the meeting, Gong Xingshu followed Chi Chi to the parking lot with a dead face.
"I made an appointment with someone else to spend time together."
"Then I'm the one among the others? Let's just discuss the plot of the movie? ”
Grabbing his beard, Director Gong Da sacrificed the almighty card in his hand - his movie.
"Because I want to cooperate with you, I did some homework a few days ago......" Chi Chi stood in front of the car, his fingers tapping on the front cover of his car a few times.
"Do you know what people say about you?" The rhythm of the fingers was very steady, and the corners of Chi Chi's mouth had a very polite smile.
"Don't talk to me, you don't have yours, it's not interesting to have more heart in your mouth, really reassure me, this is respect, isn't it?"
Gong Xingshu's mouthful of white tooth pools is almost tired of reading.
"It is said that the story of director Gong Xingshu, from the inside to the outside, is surnamed Gong, and as soon as you slap your head, the whole crew has to turn like a spinning top. If you want to discuss the plot with me, I believe others, but I don't dare to believe you here. ”
"Take a look, don't you just put me on your lips again."
Gong Xingshu winked at Chi Chi: "What others say is someone else's business, it's up to you, I have to listen to you, by the way, you have done your homework if you want to cooperate with me, and I have also done my homework, such as going to find a director named She Bing to drink......"
There is no change in the rhythm of Chi Chi's fingers.
Gong Xingshu looked at the white and slender hand, and then looked at Chi Chi's delicate chin.
Yo, the little girl's concentration is very strong.
Also, if she wasn't strong, she wouldn't have taken a fancy to her, would she?
"Otherwise, I won't bother on New Year's Day, so let's do it today, where are you going? I just happened to be fine, so I walked around. ”
Chi Chi's smile remained unchanged, and he raised his head slightly to look at Gong Xingshu's eyes.
"Okay, I have to go to the Red Star Theater to watch the new play rehearsed by Mr. Ma Tianshu, do you want to see it?"
"Oh, the old horse has a new play, I'm familiar with him, let's go."
Teacher Ma Tianshu is the professor who praised Chi Chi in class a few days ago but didn't recognize Chi Chi, and the Red Star Theater where he is located is also a famous old theater in Sijiu City, the place is a good place where every inch of land is valuable, and the whole theater also has the architectural style characteristics of the middle of the last century.
More than 70 years ago*, the country's first drama was born – the well-known story of "I love you, but your dad is my dad" went from a thin script to a melancholy drama that makes people entangle their minds with the actors' every move.
Since then, many good scripts have been born in this country with many stories, and there have been generations of good drama actors in small theaters, who should already know the plot and even the details, but are still shocked every time.
In those scripts, there are small people in the times, big figures in history, wise men in legends, and heroes in mythology...... Their joys and sorrows have been repeatedly polished and carved by generations of actors, so they are extraordinarily moving.
Walking into the theater, Chi Chi seemed to immediately hear someone reading the words in the script in a sonorous and powerful tone, but she couldn't tell whether the voice was real or an illusion in her mind.
The lights on the stage of the theater are on, and Professor Ma Tianshu is discussing the details of movement and lighting with several actors.
Chi Chi was carrying a paper bag in his hand, and handed it over with a smile after seeing Professor Ma.
"Make a few snacks before you go out in the morning, no sugar, can you try them?"
"Dim sum?"
Professor Ma raised his hand and patted his stomach and glanced at the time again, before he smiled at Chi Chi and said, "It's about to be performed, and I was so busy that I forgot to eat." ”
"Lunch has already been delivered, and a few of you haven't eaten."
The logistics of the crew is also the daughter of Professor Ma, who is also one of the planners of the drama.
Looking in the direction of her finger, Chi Chi saw several fast food boxes that had been wrapped in down jackets to keep warm.
"Actually, drama actors don't work so hard."
Professor Ma, who was in his sixties, was obviously extremely hungry, so he hurriedly went over and picked up a lunch box and took a big bite of the rice, eating it wolf, and he was afraid that his busy and dizzy appearance would scare Chi Chi.
"I said, old horse, you are not convincing at all. You have the ability to eat a big meal and drink a little wine now, everyone is still singing, can you say that the drama actor is not hard, just eating a 25 yuan box lunch, you say, we can't believe it. ”
Gong Xingshu, who was wearing a dogskin hat and was neglected, sat next to Professor Ma very consciously.
"Komiya? You're ......."
"When I met Chi Chi in a meeting, she said that you have rehearsed a new play, and I think I haven't watched your play for two or three years, so it's not coming."
As Gong Xingshu spoke, he naturally touched the box of snacks that Chi Chi had just given to Professor Ma, took out a piece and put it in his mouth.
"Coconut balls...... What other flavors? ”
Dig and dig and pick another piece.
"Red beans? Yes, I like this. ”
Professor Ma had long known that Gong Xingshu was not slipping, and seeing that Chi Chi was looking at the entire stage, he took a sip of soup and rushed down the mouthful of rice in his mouth.
"Let's go, I'll take you up and have a look."
The old man took Chi Chi's arm and dragged her to the stage.
The stage is not high, there are only six steps, and when Chi Chi walks on it, it is like stepping on the clouds.
Maybe it's really the clouds.
Because there are people who have spent their entire lives without really walking on it.
"Can you hear me?"
Ma Tianshu patted Chi Chi on the shoulder.
"There have been four phoenixes, Cheng madmen, and Chang Siye here...... Their voices should all be here, for their bones and souls were here.
Raise your head, on this stage, whoever it is, you have to be them. There is no camera to give you a big close-up, and there is no lighting board dangling in front of your eyes, if you want to grab the audience's attention, you have to show your full set of skills, your body, expressions, lines...... None of them can be saved by filming...... You only have yourself. ”
Professor Ma really likes drama and acting, and after watching Chi Chi's movies and chatting with Chi Chi, he really likes Chi Chi.
No one would dislike her - a girl who is wholeheartedly engaged in her own business and loves it with all her heart.
Ma Tianshu, who cherishes talents, naturally moved the mind of pulling the pool to perform a drama belatedly.
In the old man's loud voice, Chi Chi's expression was a subtle calm.
She walked over to the table in the middle of the stage and picked up the script that had been placed there.
This is a very interesting story, a man sits at a table and writes history, and those characters appear in front of his eyes one by one in order to tamper with what he writes, there are princes and generals, there are peerless beauties, some of them coercion, some of them are tempting, and in the end they still lose to the persistence of this writer.
"How? Do you want to try a role? ”
What kind of smile the snake in the Garden of Eden used to be, what kind of smile Professor Ma used to be at this time. 166 Reading Network
