Chapter 306: Stage plays are not a miracle doctor that cures all diseases
"Boss Shao, Boss Shao......" Sun Shengnan quickly caught up with Shao Yingying as if he got off the plane, and looked at him very unaccustomed and said, "What should I do." ”
Shao Yingying was about to go to the parking lot, in the past, this kind of thing was done by assistants, he didn't have to worry about anything when he got in the car directly, as long as he waited in the car for a while, Sun Shengnan would definitely come over with the box, and it didn't change again. But this time it seemed a little different, Sun Shengnan didn't seem to take the luggage at all, but followed Shao Yingying's footsteps after a while. Shao Yingying is still wondering, why is it so fast today, he hasn't walked to the parking lot yet, can he take out the salute?
"What to do?" Hearing Sun Shengnan's words, Shao Yingying turned around and asked.
"Our Dongjing actor wants to help you with your luggage, who doesn't know that the so-called assistant of the two of you is just talking, why did he still snatch my job, if this is transmitted back to China, Shao Yingying's assistant is playing a big name to let Dongjing actor take the luggage, I, what can I do."
Shao Yingying really didn't expect this, he always thought that Wang Qianyuan followed him just to go abroad to see the filming techniques of the movie, and to experience the difference between the performance of the same person and the domestic one, and what experience can be learned. I really didn't expect Wang Qianyuan to really suppress his anger and be an assistant to himself, but it's also very good, if Wang Qianyuan can really get through this hurdle, maybe he will be able to become a climate.
"It's not a big deal, if he wants to take it, let him take it, you don't have to worry about it, just take care of yourself." Shao Yingying and Sun Shengnan sat in the car, watching Sun Shengnan stay awkwardly, as if he had suddenly been idle. She's not going to be okay yet.
Scold.
The moment the door was pulled open, four large boxes were stuffed into the nanny's car, and then the door was closed with a bang. When Wang Qianyuan got into the car from the passenger seat, he actually said a sentence in English to the driver: "IT'S-OK, LET'S-GO." ”
"Lao Wang, okay, Sun Shengnan and I have been in the United States for so many years, and we are still speaking Sugar Mountain-flavored English when we communicate with people, and you have a British accent when you arrive." Shao Yingying made fun of Wang Qianyuan, but Sun Shengnan, who was recruited, was unhappy and said: "Boss Shao, if you want to change assistants, just say it." I've been working for you for 10 years, and I've never heard you say I have problems speaking English. ”
Shao Yingying and Wang Qianyuan couldn't laugh anymore, they were originally joking with Wang Qianyuan. Unexpectedly, Sun Shengnan, who is now a mother, was unhappy: "Why do you care about everything, Sun Shengnan, listen well, when Wang Zhonglei wanted to help me change assistants, he couldn't let you leave." Don't even think about running away for the rest of your life. You really think that Lao Wang is here to be an assistant, if he really comes to be an assistant, can he get such a standard English in such a short time? I don't know how much hard work it takes, this is just to go to the set to watch other people's big watches perform, and be able to understand what people say and what tone they say, this is performance. ”
This time, it stands to reason that there are more jokes than the previous jokes, but Sun Shengnan has a happy look, as if he is very happy to hear that he will stay in the assistant for the rest of his life.
Wang Qianyuan sighed and said, "It's no wonder that Sun Shengnan is a person." In today's society, it may not be difficult to find a job that suits your heart, so you have to start all over again. From the bottom, at least it is not difficult to choose a profession, as long as you work hard enough when you go to school. But if you find a boss who suits your heart, it's too difficult, who doesn't want to stand leisurely next to the boss and be a celebrity, there is a thunderbolt down the boss to block, what about yourself, and one person under ten thousand people, don't you see what the leaders of the drivers are comfortable into? ”
Shao Yingying laughed twice, and Sun Shengnan scolded with a smile: "I hate it." ”
The car went straight from LA Airport to MGM in Hollywood, and when they arrived at the company, Wang Qianyuan and Sun Shengnan went to the company to arrange luggage first, anyway, Wang Qianyuan was not interested in the production steps of the movie, he was only interested in acting, and Shao Yingying had something to talk to Harry Sloan about, so they parted ways.
When he arrived at Harry Sloan's office, old Harry said to Shao Yingying: "Hey, Shao, you are back, do you know, the Hollywood media once published some articles during this time, saying that Hollywood without Shao Yingying is a scandal except for scandals, and it is boring." ”
"It's the first time I've heard that there are media in Hollywood who are looking forward to my return, and I'm really not afraid of big things." Shao Yingying was a lot calmer when he sat opposite Harry Sloan, stability is not calmness, calmness refers to letting things that are easy to float sink down, there is a problem of controlling the power here, and stability refers to the fact that a qiē is very flat in front of Shao Yingying, and there is no longer the previous jump.
Harry Sloan smiled and said: "Your image in Hollywood is different now, your "Darling" has caused a wide repercussion in North America, and many lost children who have been recovered with the help of the Missing Children Information Processing Center have been praised for you on major websites in the United States, if the news of your return to Hollywood is released in advance, I guarantee that the media will sing praises to welcome you." ”
"According to you, there is hope that my relationship with the Hollywood media will be reversed?" Shao Yingying desperately wanted the answer.
"Now it's just an opportunity, don't worry, you have to take your time." Harry Sloan handed over the cut cigar, and Shao Yingying waved his hand in response, "I can't get used to it." ”
Shao Yingying took out his own cigarette and lit it, and listened to Harry Sloan, who had lit a cigar, say, "Shao, I have good news. The movie "Dear" was also shortlisted for Best Actor at the Berlin Film Festival, but Berlin and us are not in the same circle at all, whether you can be a silver bear or not, it depends on luck. ”
"Don't say Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks are making the same cut." Shao Yingying said self-deprecatingly.
Harry Sloan also laughed, shook his head, and said, "That's not it, but ...... One thing I'm afraid I have to tell you, Tom Hanks was shortlisted for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor, also for "Darling". ”
"I sue you for this, it's not that you are treated differently in Hollywood, the Golden Globe Award is the vane of the Oscars, and winning the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor will definitely be shortlisted in the Oscar for Best Actor, but. Don't forget that "Dear" is a public welfare film of the United States, and the government of the United States will definitely choose a United States person to appear in front of the public while thanking you...... Shao. Are you okay? How could you, be so calm? ”
Harry Sloan found that Shao Hero was different from before, this time Shao Hero didn't have any angry expression on his face, and he didn't even show his unique feelings about this matter, and he didn't have feelings when he didn't see himself, such a table has only two explanations for Harry Sloan, or. Shao Yingying has been completely relieved, or he has long lost any hope for the award of the United States.
"Old man. Let's talk about the new movie script, what I sent you, do you see it? ”
Shao Yingying turned over this article in one sentence and didn't say anything. Normal outrageous!
"Oh. Oh......" Harry Sloan responded twice, and then changed the subject: "Shao, your script ......" Harry Sloan came back to his senses and continued: "I think it resonates, in that era, black slaves were not the biggest problem, the biggest problem was always slaves, but this is a bit contrary to the novel "12 Years a Slave". "Twelve Years a Slave" is the fate of one person after another, explaining the sorrow of a great era, and your movie is simply to survive. It seems that the proposition is smaller. ”
Shao Yingying asked noncommittally, "Really?" He explained: "When people talk about the meaning of life, they are more concerned about dying well, which is not what I want, and I can't stand at that height because I haven't experienced the moment of sacrificing myself for the sake of the times, and I can't grasp the feeling in my heart at all." Moreover, I don't think "12 Years a Slave" is not as sad as you said about the great era, when the world in Solomon's eyes was about to be hated to death by him, right? He went from being a musician to a slave, and how much other people's sorrows did he see in his eyes, and his own sorrows could not be grieved, and I am afraid that he cursed the slave master for countless nights and died 'immediately mad' that night. ”
"In my opinion, Solomon's mentality of wanting to escape from the slave world is no longer obvious in the later stage, if it weren't for the appearance of Bass to give him hope again, he would have accepted his fate, and he must also accept his fate in order to survive." Shao Yingying looked at Harry Sloan and said: "I hope that my film will come according to my understanding, and it must not be raised to a position that does not belong to it at all, what the audience can see and understand, it is the audience's business, and we will do what we can understand in peace." ”
“OK。”
Harry Sloan looked at Shao Yingying, who had changed a lot, and agreed to this sentence, and he found that in Shao Yingying's calmness, something called 'self-confidence' really appeared, and this 'self-confidence' would make people believe in him involuntarily.
"I want to hear the smell of compromise, Harry, don't say it's because I'm the boss." He made a joke.
"Part of the reason is that your results have never disappointed anyone." Harry Sloan didn't deny the joke when he faced it, and replied with a smile.
Harry Sloan watched Shao Yingying's every move change and asked, "Shao, can acting in drama really change people so much?" Why do I feel like you're a different person than before? ”
"What's the difference?" Shao Yingying seems to be more interested in this issue.
"I can't tell, I just feel that your temper is much smaller than before, your patience has increased, and even when something that doesn't go your way forward, you don't have the sense of surprise of ordinary people, and you have a certain amount of tolerance for everything." Harry Sloan summed up slowly, and when he wanted to add, he gave up after thinking about it.
Shao Yingying said uncertainly: "There must be a part of the reason for acting in a drama, because it is impossible for a stage play to have no accidents, when we are rehearsing, it is likely that because one person makes a mistake, everyone has to start over, and there have been some actors who have robbed other people's lines during public performances because of nervousness." Slowly, in a world that seems to never be in control, you will learn to put a qiē in a tolerable range, not on a point, maybe this is how my tolerance increases. ”
"As for patience, I don't think I need to explain, do I? If you will only arrange one drama in half a year, and perform the same drama for a hundred performances, I am afraid that anyone's patience will be improved, which is much more effective than fishing, after all, it is not suspicious to change the things promised to the audience, the audience doesn't care what you are performing for, anyway, they paid for it, bought tickets to see this play, even if you are disgusting, you are about to vomit, and for a while, when you see the lines, you want to tear up the line book and have to walk on the stage when the curtain opens. Standing in front of the audience with full feelings. ”
"No matter at any time and in any place, as long as you don't deliberately make trouble, you can't rely on the audience for any of your feelings, and that's all the help that the stage play has given me."
Harry Sloan suddenly realized, slapped the table with a 'snap' and said, "I finally know what to do with my adolescent daughter." ”
"What do you mean?" Shao Yingying asked.
Harry Sloan said reluctantly: "I raised her for fourteen years, and when I was a child, I would not let go of my legs, but when I was sixteen, I could never see her, and she would sneak out alone while we were asleep and fool around with a bunch of fools. Shao, you know, it's hard to even have a meal with her right now, and she'll deal with me with 'we're together every day, why can't you give me a little personal space'. A few days ago......" Harry Sloan glanced at Shao Yingying, some of the ugliness of the family could not be publicized, and said in a low voice: "When you were still in Huaxia a few days ago, she came back and hugged me and cried bitterly, saying...... She was pregnant and had no idea what to do. ”
"I don't understand, I'm her father, why can't I give your father a little love in normal times, and always think of me when you feel that the whole world can't breathe for you?" Harry Sloan gritted his teeth and said, "I've already thought about kicking her out of the house when she reaches the age of 18, and I won't give her any more expenses, otherwise it will hurt her." ”
"And what are you going to do with your daughter?" Shao Yingying asked strangely.
Harry Sloan said, "I'm going to send her to drama. ”
Shao Yingying tilted his head, completely unsure of what to say: "Harry, I must officially remind you that these are completely different things. Stage play is the best training for an actor, not the greatest educator in the world. (To be continued......)
