Lance snapped his fingers and exclaimed, "Wonderful! Turning to the other actors, "I don't know how much you know about the script. If you have read the script carefully, you should know that this work puts forward very strict requirements for performance, and you can become a part of it because your basic acting skills are good and solid, and even most of you have experience in stage performance. That's what we need, to let go of our hands and feet in body language, to be precise and delicate in emotional expression, that's all. Lance looked around, his eyes swept over each actor, and finally landed on Bruce, but only paused slightly, and then put it away, "So, be confident in yourself, read the script repeatedly, and even rehearse with your partner, you can do it, please surprise me, let's finish this work together!" ”

After a short and powerful sentence, Rosario took the lead in clapping, shook his head, turned to Alexis standing beside him, and said, "Maybe he's a complete bastard, but he's definitely a brilliant bastard." ”

Alexis pursed her lips, "Geniuses are bastards, aren't they?" Then he smiled and applauded.

Emma raised her head, her gaze fell on Lance's broad shoulders, although Lance didn't praise her too much, and didn't even give her a single look, but at this moment, Emma's chest felt the surging of emotion. She did it, she really did, she proved that she can be a good actor, she proved that her dream is not a castle in the air.

Brilliant blue. Emma was a little panicked, she obviously didn't expect that Lance would suddenly turn her head at this time, and suddenly she crashed directly into the blue blue, as if her inner love was revealed by the red fruit, which made Emma immediately lower her eyes and avoid her gaze.

But Lance didn't seem to notice it, and just said in a deep voice, "So, you did read the script." It's a good start, keep it up. With that, Lance walked away briskly, leaving the space back to the actors, who needed a little time to settle in, as Bruce said.

Emma clenched her fists happily, at this moment, she really let her feelings unleash, between her eyebrows did not hide her excitement, she couldn't even suppress her light jump, that innocent childish behavior made people can't help but laugh.

Jessica stood still, she had been worried about Emma getting into trouble, but now it seemed that her worries were unnecessary. Biting his lip lightly, the inexplicable bitterness on the tip of his tongue was reminiscing, "Jessica, I'm going to re-read the script of the first scene, can you help me play against it?" Emma's voice woke Jessica out of her thoughts, and the bitterness dissipated, and Jessica smiled, "Of course, of course. ”

Bruce still sat in place, the same movement unchanged, but at this point he looked a little wolfy. Missing the time to stand up, Bruce didn't seem to have the ability to get up on his own now, and after Lance left, the other actors dispersed, which made him simply continue to sit on the ground.

Asher-Man walked over and smiled helplessly, "Are you unable to stand up now, or do you have no face to stand up?" Bruce snorted and replied with disdain, but Ash didn't say anything more, and stretched out his right hand, Bruce grabbed Ash's right hand and stood up with his strength.

"Thank you?" Bruce glanced at Ash angrily.

Ash also smiled back politely, "As your assistant, this is what I should do." Bruce was completely speechless by that straightforward answer, and Ash was just joking, and then asked with concern, "How's it going?" ”

"I've worked with worse ones." Bruce shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly that he had gone through the "take on any bad movie for money" stage, so he worked with all kinds of crews.

"Then why are you so impatient?" In fact, Bruce is not an actor who likes to play big names, Ash knows this clearly, maybe he has starred in all kinds of bad movies, and he has worn out the so-called face; On the contrary, when Bruce cooperates with new directors, he is always very cooperative, such as the original "supernatural sixth sense". But today's Bruce is clearly not the one Ash understands.

Bruce opened his mouth, he thought he could say an answer, but when the words came to his lips, he found that his brain went blank again. Bruce drooped his shoulders and stood helplessly in place, thinking about it for a long time, and finally let out a long breath, "Probably because he still has high expectations of me." ”

This sentence reveals indescribable helplessness and vicissitudes. Even Bruce himself gave up, he never thought he could make any breakthroughs in acting, twenty years of his career as an actor have come over like this, and now he has entered the end of his career, maybe one day later, he can't even play the scene, and it's time for him to retire; However, Lance still holds on to hope - not just hope, but also high requirements and high standards, and even he himself has forgotten what "acting" is all about.

Ash could feel the loss in Bruce's words, but he couldn't find the right comfort, so he could only pat Bruce on the shoulder. Bruce looked up at him, casting an inquiring look, and Ash couldn't say "I'm comforting you", thought for a moment, and said, "So, what are you going to do?" ”

Bruce thought for a moment, "I've signed a contract, what else can I do?" He chuckled, "Although I would like to teach that kid a hard lesson now, and let him know that not everyone can mess with him, but...... I guess I'd better give the director a little face. ”

Ash nodded repeatedly, "Preferably, he looks too thin, like a cucumber, and if you accidentally break it, it won't be easy to clean up." This mocking tone made Bruce speechless, but there was no way to refute it, so he could only smile nothingly, "So, what are we going to do now?" ”

Bruce turned his head to look around, and then he saw Emma's thin figure, and Jessica, who was standing next to her, seemed a little uneasy, but Emma read the script intently, as if all the noise around her was gone, "Read the script, read the script carefully." You've read the script before, right? Tell me the whole story again, I mean, except for the one where Jessica and I kissed. ”

Albert walked quickly towards the actor's lounge, and then saw Bruce standing next to him reading the script, while his assistant Ash was sitting in a chair instead, which made Albert stunned, but still stepped forward, "Bruce, the first scene is about to start filming, ten minutes." ”

Bruce reacted immediately, which meant they had to stand in front of the camera, walk around, rehearse, get to know the camera position and scheduling, and then prepare for the shoot. He nodded, threw the script to Ash, and walked side by side with Albert towards the green screen, "Albert, right?" One thing I'm very curious about is Hardigan in the script, is he a good guy or a bad guy? ”

As a playwright, Albert had to know the script well, and many times, his interpretation was the closest to the director's idea, "Bad guy." "Albert isn't Lance, he doesn't need to be guided, and he doesn't have time now," to be precise, in Sin City, everyone is a bad guy, but everyone is also a good guy. You know, it's like when we kill people to achieve justice, and that doesn't justify the act of killing. However, the character of Hardigan is even more special, he is a bad guy himself, but because of Nancy's relationship, he sacrificed himself in exchange for Nancy's freedom. For Nancy, he's a nice guy, but ......"

"I see." Bruce nodded meaningfully, he originally thought that "Sin City" was just an ordinary crime action movie, and when he first auditioned, Lance said that he was fanciful, but he didn't buy it at all, and almost every director in Hollywood said that his work was unparalleled. But now Bruce realizes that he is wrong, and just the sublimation of the relationship between Hardigan and Nancy is enough to light up the whole script, "But, you say that Hardy himself is a bad guy at all? ”

Albert looked at Bruce twice, he remembered that Lance had a corresponding idea for each character, why Bruce seemed to know nothing, but he didn't say anything, it wasn't his duty - knowing how to shut up is also one of the important abilities of the show, "Yes, why would Hardigan go to great lengths for Nancy?" It won't be talked about in the movie, but it is a very important part of the character setting. Perhaps, Hadigan is a dirty policeman/detective, but because of his own connections, the director zhì's daughter was kidnapped and even torn up the ticket. And so on. ”

Bruce's eyes widened and he looked at Albert in great surprise, which made Albert very helpless, "It's not my idea, it's Lance's." As he spoke, the two of them were already in front of the green screen, "Bruce, about the character, you can think slowly later, but I need you to concentrate now." Albert took the initiative to change the subject and get back on track.

Bruce felt that he had received too much information, and he couldn't help but glance back, and then saw that Lance was confirming the details with the gaffer and the photographer team, with a stern expression and a focused expression, and the fierce color between his eyebrows was clearly visible. Bruce withdrew his gaze and said to Albert, "Give me a minute." ”

Albert stood speechless, but Bruce re-emphasized, "One minute." With that, Bruce walked outside the green screen set, he needed to take a deep breath, he needed to organize his thoughts, he needed to get really serious, he needed to be an actor. (To be continued.) )
