Chapter 1272: Audition
Tang Xiaoyu's two major wishes, one is to take revenge on Jia Cunzhen, and the other is to become a superstar. In order to make him willingly hand over the eighth lotus petal, Liu Yu naturally had to find ways to satisfy his wishes. Because of the advantage of knowing "history", although it is tricky to retaliate against Jia Cunzhen, it is not hopeless.
It's just that Liu Yu's strength and power are too weak now, and he is not suitable to directly face Jia Cunzhen, who is very likely to be the "son of the world", so Liu Yu did not immediately attack Jia Cunzhen, but only explained to Xu Shaoliang that they would develop their own power, while secretly preventing Jia Cunzhen and Enzhen's contact.
Although Liu Yu has been far away from China for more than two months, because of the emergence of Jiang Renting, a historical variable, Eunzhen has been sitting in Tianjing, and has no heart to get close to Jia Cunzhen, who has a good impression, and Jia Cunzhen also has no time to hook up with Eunzhen because he helped shoot "Fengyun". If it weren't for that, Liu Yu wouldn't dare to go abroad to lay out with confidence!
Although Jia Cunzhen can leave him alone for the time being, Tang Xiaoyu's second wish, Liu Yu, is about to start working hard now! Because of Jiang Renting's cautious words, Liu Yu has almost no foothold in Tianjing, but fortunately, the East China Sea is not the Jiang family's sphere of influence, and he will not be deliberately embarrassed to re-enter the entertainment industry here.
After Liu Yu's registered "Xiaoyu Entertainment" was officially listed, Lin Xiaoyun, who was upgraded to an agent, helped him find an opportunity to audition. For this point, although Liu Yu has doubts, he does not have too many entanglements, even if he does not have super perception, but it is related to his own body, Liu Yu's main soul still has not dropped the chain, and he has long confirmed Lin Xiaoyun's kindness to him, so even if Lin Xiaoyun may have some secrets. Liu Yu didn't care!
Although "Supreme" is very popular with Liu Yu, Liu Yu only dares to go out at night to have a good time. There is no way to let it appear in a grand manner, after all, the "Supreme" does not match his identity on the surface. Liu Yu didn't want to attract the attention or even trouble of people with a heart before he was strong.
took Lin Xiaoyun's car to the film and television company that issued the audition notice, but when he arrived, he encountered a traffic jam, in order not to be late, Liu Yu could only get out of the car alone, and then walk through the path. But what makes people speechless is that when Liu Yu was crossing the shortcut, he actually got lost and couldn't understand the direction at all.
"Woo woo ......" A cry sounded in the alley, sounding like a girl. Liu Yu's heart moved, and he unconsciously walked into the dark alley. Walking into the alley, Liu Yu only saw a beggar with unkempt white hair next to the garbage heap, whimpering softly, and his dirty face was bruised, obviously beaten.
Raising his eyebrows, Liu Yu took out a hundred-yuan note from his coat pocket and handed it to the beggar. The beggar looked up. Although her face was dirty, she had a pair of unusually bright eyes, and the most bizarre thing was that her eyes were glowing with ice blue!
Liu Yu showed a gentle smile. Ignoring the beggar's filth and stench, he lifted the long hair in front of the beggar's face and said, "Take the money." Let's go buy something to eat! By the way, buy a little more purple potion and wipe the bruises on your face. ”
"Woo woo......" The beggar suddenly pounced. hugged Liu Yu's legs and feet, and cried loudly. I can't shake it off!
Liu Yu was a little helpless, he wanted to be kind on a whim, but he was entangled by a beggar! "Don't do that...... I also know that you are pitiful, but I still have very important things, I must go, you let go! Liu Yu said urgently.
The beggar did not let go of his hand, but raised his head, revealing his pitiful eyes, tears rolling in his eyes.
Liu Yu frowned slightly: "Otherwise, I'll give you money?" I'll give you as much as you want. As he spoke, he took out a dozen pieces of money and handed it to the beggar.
The beggar looked at the money blankly, shook his head, and looked at Liu Yu with a pitiful expression.
Liu Yu was confident that he was a cold person, but at this time he was very unbearable, shook his head helplessly, and said gently: "You take this money...... I really have something to do right now, why don't you wait here for me, and come back to pick you up when I'm done? ”
The beggar looked at Liu Yu blankly for a while, nodded, and said in a somewhat weird and cute tone: "I'm waiting for you, and I'm waiting for you when it rains!" ”
###########################################################
Datang Film and Television Company is located in the most luxurious area of the city center. Hundreds of meters tall towering into the sky, countless pieces of dark green glass neatly embedded in the outermost layer, as if the crystal clear reflection of the endless blue sky. The first floor is nearly 1,000 square meters, and the noble and luxurious eighteen marble columns are carved with medieval European patterns. The whole building is gorgeous and dignified, just like the big stars who come and go here, which makes people can't help but have a feeling of admiration and awe.
Liu Yu took the elevator to the eighteenth floor of Datang Film and Television. There was a long line of handsome men and women outside the interview hall, and at a glance, they all looked superior. The interview assistant seemed surprised, and the official sent them the form and asked to fill out the personal information again.
And it's no wonder. Now the most important thing in this society is handsome guys and beauties, with medium appearance, painting makeup is a beauty, no matter how bad it is, you can also have surgery and plastic surgery. No matter how ordinary a face is, it can become bright and moving, and those who can dream of stardom are basically quite confident in their appearance.
Although there were a lot of people, the interview process was surprisingly fast. Many people came out dejected in less than a minute, and some of the weak girls still had red eyes and tears. You can imagine the brutality of the interview. Although Liu Yu is confident that he has actor-level acting skills, he can't help but be a little nervous in the face of this unfamiliar blue star entertainment circle. The world has changed, and it is different from the source star, can he adapt to the rules here......
When I thought so, the interview assistant had already come over to call the number. Liu Yu remembered that this was his number, so he quickly tidied up his clothes and followed the assistant into the interview hall. It is said that it is an interview hall, but it is actually very empty. The huge office had nothing but a chair sitting alone in the center of the room.
In the row by the window is a long office desk made of mahogany, with extremely graceful lines and a deep mahogany color. Just by its shine, you can tell that this table has an extraordinary texture. However, I believe that every auditioner will not pay too much attention to this table, because the presence of the three examiners with critical eyes behind the table is too strong. Under their scrutiny. Many inexperienced people will seem very uncomfortable, and some of them don't know how to place their hands and feet. Consequentially, movements and expressions become stiff.
However, the three interviewers found that the interviewer who had just come in still had a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth that was as soft as a sparkling lake in spring, elegant and decent. His hair is extremely shiny and the line of his chin is sexy. The thick and dense eyelashes half-covered his eyes, but there was a feeling of seeing a Persian cat, as clear and elegant as glass. Pretty, charming, full of demagogic flavors. The longer I looked at it, the more I realized that the long and thick eyelashes and the lazy cat-like eyes had a powerful attraction. Like a magical magnet, people are reluctant to look away. There is a "play" in this person's eyes!
The three interviewers looked at each other, and the thought flashed through their hearts at the same time. has been immersed in the entertainment industry for many years, and they have seen a lot of beautiful and beautiful artists, even if they are quite stunning at first sight. Later, you can return to your normal mind......
The interviewer froze, picked up the information sheet in front of him and read it again.
Name: Tang Xiaoyu
Height: 185 cm
Weight: 70 kg
Specialty: Acting
The three interviewers couldn't help but chuckle. Among the people who come for the interview, 80 out of 100 will have acting skills, and the remaining 20 will be acting and singing. And these are like the many interviewers who cross the river. How many can really be associated with the word "acting"? It's nothing more than empty vases.
Under such a preconceived impression, the interviewers' originally interested eyes faded again, and reverted to a demanding and high-minded posture. The one sitting on the left tapped his finger at the snow-white data sheet. A little casually asked, "Specialty acting?" "A question is only four words. Even the subject is omitted, and the tone is subtle.
Liu Yu was not in a hurry. Nodding politely. Liu Yu has also acted in several plays on Yuanxing, and his own experience is even more bizarre. Naturally, it will not change color because of the alienation of the interviewer. After getting the audition script, Liu Yu did some homework.
The screenwriter still follows a stable path, with two men competing for a woman. The No. 1 actor is a likable character nowadays, with an oily tone, always likes to tease the heroine, and the heroine is so angry that her teeth are itchy, and a pair of happy enemies. But after the male protagonist and the female protagonist were affectionately connected, they realized that the fathers of the two were incompatible rivals.
Liu Yu's role is a gentleman, gentle as jade, and has been silently accompanying the heroine. Whenever the heroine is in trouble, she will quietly give the heroine ideas. Especially when the heroine is hurt, she is even more gentle and waiting. It's just that the heroine has always treated him like a brother, and there is no fate. In the end, a lover eventually became a family, and he blessed him from afar.
Liu Yu understood in his heart. If this scale is accurate, the appearance of affection and forbearance will be performed to make people infinitely embarrassed, and it will also allow the audience to prepare tissues and burst into tears. Liu Yu changed his clothes at the stylist, put on an ancient hood, and neatly arranged his hair bun and sideburns. When he came out, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Wearing an elegant and elegant green shirt, it is like the posture of green willows in spring. The long black hair was tied tightly with a jade-colored square scarf, and immediately exuded a bookish atmosphere of a literati scholar, and the air seemed to flow with a vague scent of ink. The ink-painted eyes are even more spotless, containing a faint brilliance like jade, revealing a bit of silent tenderness and restraint.
The crew was amazed: it really fits the image of the second male lead in the script. That kind of elegant temperament even overshadowed the male number one! The stylist shook his head at the makeup photo of the male number one, obviously he put more thought into the male number one, how can he compare with the male number two, the other party is like a street gangster? The gap is all too stark.
The director was also very satisfied with Liu Yu's appearance, flipped through the script casually with his fingers, and finally clicked on one of the pages casually: "You can audition this paragraph." "The play designated by the director is about the heroine who is in danger and is detained by the government, and the second male figure comes up with a way: imitate the handwriting of the county magistrate to let her go. There are no outstanding points, and anyone who plays it will be dull and unsuccessful.
Liu Yu is not sure whether the director is testing himself or perfunctory, but no matter what the situation is, he will show the most perfect state, so there is no objection. I'm thinking about it on the side, and I'm ready to enter the role.
Under the director's instructions, the props team quickly and neatly put the desk and the four treasures of the study. One side of the desk happens to lean against an antique openwork carved rosewood window. In this way, it adds a lot of antique charm. But because it's an audition. So there is no chasing light and putting wheat.
The audition officially began, and as soon as Liu Yu stepped into the camera, the photographer was secretly surprised. The jade crown square scarf, the green shirt is like bamboo, and the whole person is like an elegant spring mountain in the twilight. What is even more rare is that this newcomer is very good at standing, and looking at the camera monitor, Liu Yu is in a slightly left-sided position in the center, forming an extremely poetic picture with the moon-hole-shaped window of the desk in front of him.
It should just be a coincidence...... The photographer glanced at the director. The director didn't pay much attention to it. Although he can only shoot idol dramas. can't make big-budget movies, but there are still a lot of actors under him, not to mention small newcomers. In his opinion, it is appropriate for newcomers not to be taught. If you still have to be told how to pose, how to move, it's called stupid. He has little patience, and he doesn't wait to see a newcomer who wants to be taught by hand.
Liu Yu closed his eyes. When I opened it again, the contents of my eyes were no longer the same. If just now, he still looked calm and peaceful. So now, Liu Yu seems to be much more anxious. This anxiety seemed to turn into a gossamer, and people could clearly see this anxiety and worry spilling from between his slightly frowning brows......
Liu Yu did not speak. Just keep your head down and your eyelids down. Pacing in a small scene. His steps were disordered, a few steps were fast, and a few steps were slightly slow. When you go fast. It seems to be thinking; When he walks slowly, he seems to be knocking on whether the idea he just thought is feasible.
Frowning and pacing are indeed the best way to express worry. However, there is another point. But only a fairly seasoned actor can do it! That is, although Liu Yu paced back and forth, making the whole photographic picture not so dull, and even adding a sense of space to such a set. However, from beginning to end, Liu Yu never made a mistake - never stepped out of the camera.
Seem...... It's not the camera that's cooperating with him. It's that he's controlling the whole picture, the whole rhythm! Such a balance can only be achieved by veteran actors who have experienced a hundred battles! Suddenly, Liu Yu was stunned. The air was like a string, and suddenly it tightened, and everyone's hearts rose to their throats, as if they realized that the main event was about to begin.
Liu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. The lines of those eyes are clear and smooth, rich and exciting, but at this time, they are slightly narrowed, but they are full of a kind of thoughtful wisdom and sharpness. His eyes were steady and composed. Liu Yu didn't speak, but the people present had already understood, and he thought of an idea - how to rescue the heroine! Such a look is only a momentary thing, but Liu Yu is delicate and accurate. No one can ignore this look that is about to change everything.
Unlike theatrical performances, TV dramas and films have the advantage of photography and post-production. The use of long and slow motion has the power to conquer time and space. From time to time, everything is gathered together, and all beings gather, which can form an epic scroll effect; From time to time, it is close to the facial expressions of the characters, and even the trajectory of the fluttering eyelashes is clearly visible.
There is a master's experience: under the photography shooting, the actors should not work too the emotional performance, not too much. If you need to achieve ten points on the screen, then the actor only needs to play seven or eight points, and the remaining two or three points of space is left for the camera skills to supplement the play......
However, Liu Yu did not use this negative way of creating and interpreting. With superb acting skills and rich experience, he uses his own unique method to artistically process the expression of real emotions in life. Expand the rendering of this emotion to make it more accurate, vivid and rich. So, his brow furrowed slightly, or the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Or, a wise and calm look to the extreme. doesn't use the camera to advance, but everyone's attention has been focused on every inch of his performance.
Perhaps, those who have read the script before this will imagine an abstract image of the male number two in their minds. But now, Liu Yu's series of nuanced facial expression changes and complex and subtle emotional fluctuations have profoundly and clearly shown the inner world of this character to everyone present, replacing the original imaginary image in their minds bloodlessly, and establishing a more real and vivid character! It seems that he is that character, and that role is tailor-made for him.
However. The show isn't over yet. According to the script, Liu Yu should imitate the handwriting of the county magistrate and let the heroine be released. How would the average person act? Lift the brush. I thought about it for a while, and then I put pen to paper. There is a kind of strategizing and calmness between the eyebrows? Liu Yu also acted in these. But that's not all.
He picked up a warm and snow-white slam and pressed it with a paperweight. Then the purple brush was dipped in ink in the dragon inkstone, and then the stroke of the pen was smoothed on the inkstone, and then the wrist was suspended. However, before putting down the pen, Liu Yu made another action that was unexpected by everyone, but it was absolutely reasonable - I saw him look at the Zihao pen horizontally in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then stretched out a hand. The thumb and index finger buckled a graceful half-arc and pulled out an uneven wolf on the tip of the pen!
Before writing with a pen, notice this subtlety to the brush, and even if there is a slender hair like spider silk, you will patiently pull it out and straighten it out. This kind of thing is indeed something that only literati and bachelors who are familiar with poetry and are accustomed to dancing and writing will care about!
Everyone was startled at first, and then suddenly realized. "I see!" "Definitely. That's how it should be! "How did he come up with it!" Such feelings have been issued.
Such a detail seems to be small, but if you think about it carefully, you will admire Liu Yu immensely. Because in the script, Liu Yu is a gentleman. The wise and pure master. It is conceivable that such a person with a ravine, must have learned to be rich and five cars, and only then can he know people. Even if the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone are not as exquisite as the princes of the palace. However, some of the little habits of the literati were essential. So. Aside from the character created by the stylist, how can we reflect the character's behavior in such a background environment in other aspects? Liu Yu used paperweight, dipping ink, smoothing the pen, and straightening the nib, which perfectly interpreted the temperament of a literati bachelor.
The performance pays attention to the five forces and six senses. They are: observation, imagination, sensibility, comprehension, and adaptability; As well as, a sense of proportion, a sense of humor, a sense of faith, a sense of rhythm, a sense of image, and a sense of reality. If you savor Liu Yu's audition. Except for the specific limitations of the plot of the script itself, Liu Yu, without a doubt, showed all these elements in just a few minutes, and it was extremely vivid!
And the final result is self-evident, Lin Xiaoyun, the agent, has not yet arrived for public relations, and the director and producer have the ambition to set the role of Liu Yu together! Such a "good opening" made Lin Xiaoyun, who arrived later, very happy, and pulled Liu Yu to go down to the restaurant to celebrate!
###############################################################
It was raining heavily outside, and it was cold to the bone, Liu Yu was sleepy and ready to go back to the bedroom to sleep, but suddenly remembered that he had asked the beggar to wait there all the time, and not to leave an inch! No, the beggar must have waited a while before leaving! Even fools know how to hide from the rain!
Although he tried to think so, Liu Yu still faintly felt uneasy, and after hesitating in his heart, he still put on his clothes, drove the supreme sports car, and drove to the alley. Along the way, Liu Yu has been hesitating, what should he do?
Strictly speaking, Liu Yu is definitely not a good person, let alone casually kind, but that little beggar is different! In the absence of super perception, he can even make Liu Yu's heart surge, it is conceivable that he is definitely not an ordinary character.
Although Liu Yu's main purpose in this world is to fulfill Tang Xiaoyu's wish to obtain the ownership of the eighth lotus petal, if it does not affect his own plans, he is still willing to contact the "extraordinary person", and there may be any surprises!
Parking the car at the entrance of the alley, Liu Yu walked in with an umbrella, the rain was pouring down, and under the dim street lamp, a lonely figure cowered. Liu Yu stood there with an umbrella, looking at the figure that was curled into a ball, not knowing how to face that pure eye. She's really waiting here for a day! I met her in the morning, the sun was so hot at noon, she was still waiting here, it began to rain heavily in the afternoon, she was still waiting here in the rain, in the face of such a person, should I be ashamed or moved?
Walking forward quickly, Liu Yu took off his coat, covered the beggar, and held the umbrella on top of the beggar's head, "I'm sorry, I'm late......"
Seeing Liu Yu, the beggar showed a bright smile, "You're here." ”
"Yes, I'm coming, come with me!" (To be continued.) )
