Chapter 258: Food and Auditions Fly Together
Long Xi said: "The chefs of the Tang Dynasty know how to make beauty, appreciate beauty, let us eat beauty into our stomachs, and give people spiritual enjoyment!"
Fan Qianqian nodded in agreement.
Long Xi said: "There is also a 'concentric raw knot' here, which was originally a very ordinary bacon strip, but the chefs had the ingenuity to process and weave them into concentric knots, and then dried them into preserved meat." I once paid special attention to the Tang Dynasty dim sum unearthed in Astana, Xinjiang, and found that there are also food spots similar to concentric knots. This must not be considered a miracle. At the same time, it also shows that the Tang Dynasty had a very close connection with the Gaochang Kingdom in Xinjiang at that time, and the cultural phenomenon of fashion and pop spread so fast that it is unimaginable for people today. The Tang Dynasty was indeed the most glorious historical period of the Chinese nation, and its splendid and magnificent civilization was dazzling! This dish showed the friendly cultural exchanges between the Tang Dynasty and other countries at that time, and it was also very suitable for use in movies. ”
Mo Kun smiled and said: "Dear, this concentric knot is also very suitable for us! I hope the two of us will always be united and grow old!"
Long Xi replied with a smile: "I'm flirting again! Can you be serious? The longest road I've ever walked is your routine, dear!"
Mo Kun compared his heart to her, and said with a smile: "Qingqing Zijin, my heart is leisurely!
Long Xi's face turned red, and he chased a golden millet into his mouth, the purpose was to make him stop talking more.
Cai Yilan gave Long Xi a thumbs up and sincerely gave Long Xi a warm hug of recognition.
Longxi chicken was so frozen that he couldn't speak. Cai Yilan is one of her idols! The idol hugged her!
Fan Qianqian smiled and said, "Xixi, I'll give you a question too." But before you can answer the questions, you need to familiarize yourself with our script. Come, please take a look at our script. ”
Long Xi looked at the script, smiled, and said: "The script of this movie is adapted from a book on the Internet, it just so happens that I have really read it, and I also understand the general plot." ”
Fan Qianqian smiled and said: "Yes? That's great! Our new movie is about the Tang Dynasty female chef Shen Shanzu, and there is a heroine and the number one villain in the script, which is the scene of the female chef fighting the kitchen I played, so the question I gave you is: make three popular dishes in the Tang Dynasty, as the three exam questions for the two of them to fight the kitchen at that time." I will have people prepare the ingredients, kitchen utensils, and molds you need, and you can just ask for them. ”
Long Xi thought for a while, made a list, and handed it to Fan Qianqian, who instructed the assistant to prepare.
Xiaolu smiled and said, "Master Xi, take advantage of this time, I will also give you two questions!"
Long Xi smiled and said: "I heard that you are the actor of the movie and the composer, lyricist, and lead singer of the theme song? Come on, don't make it too easy!"
Xiaolu said: "Come, today happens to be the audition for the heroine, my test questions are going to come out there, you come with me." Don't you like director Stephen Chow? He happens to be the director of this movie, and he's auditioning for actresses! Come, I'll take you to see idols! Oh, by the way, I haven't told you yet, Bai Bing has also terminated her contract with South Korea, returned to China, and is participating in auditions! Let's go see how she performs? She said she wants to help me with the question! Brother Kun, you also come, let you see what an actor audition is. ”
Long Xi and Mo Kun looked at each other and smiled, and followed Xiaolu to the audition room on the third floor.
The door to the audition room was closed and a sign that read "Audition is on, do not disturb."
There were quite a few people who came to audition, and they were all waiting on the promenade in front of the door.
Through the door and soundproof wall, you can't hear the sound inside, and you can't see the scene inside clearly.
The staff saw that it was Xiaolu coming and immediately opened the door for him.
Xiaolu walked in with Long Xi and Mokun.
I saw Director Stephen Chow watching the rivalry between a woman and a girl on the stage.
Director Zou held the loudspeaker that the director often held on the set, and the camera in front of him played the performance of the two people on the stage, and he could clearly see the facial expressions and movement of the two actors.
Director Zou held the megaphone that the director often held in his hand, and the video camera in front of him played the performance of the two people on the stage, and he could clearly see the facial expressions and movement of the two actors.
More than a dozen cameras surround the stage, as well as staff in charge of field affairs, lighting, sound and other personnel.
This is completely a simulated scene of on-site shooting, which was requested by Director Zou.
Director Zou is notoriously strict in selecting actors, and he is a notoriously on-set tyrant when filming movies. Once, there was an extra's performance that couldn't meet his requirements, and he actually said to the actor: "If it weren't illegal to kill someone, I would have killed you a long time ago!"
Bai Bing on the stage played the role of a "Tang Dynasty girl", although she had a jingchai cloth skirt, she couldn't hide her natural beauty.
She tilted her little face up, her hand nervously grasped the corner of the pink bandeau skirt, and her dark eyes sparkled stubbornly like diamonds. The girl's peculiar liveliness, delicateness and persistence are written in her collagen-filled face and talking eyes.
"I don't want to be a concubine. Bai Bing said sadly but firmly, as if it was the final decision made after careful consideration.
Although it was so far away, Long Xi could feel her pain, and she naturally showed an emotion that although it was painful, she did not regret it.
It seems that Bai Bing's acting skills are really good!
Standing opposite Bai Bing was a woman dressed as a young noblewoman of the Tang Dynasty, who should be four or five years older than Kumi.
Huh? I think it's a little familiar.
Her figure is slightly plump and her skin is snow-white, which is very in line with the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty.
She wears a wig and a high bun, just like the kind of ladies in "The Hairpin Lady", with a large blooming red peony on it (it should be a silk flower, not a real flower, and this season is not the season when the peony is in full bloom).
She was wearing a yellow tan-chested skirt and a thin gauze dress, and her arms were faintly visible as white as porcelain, with distinct textures.
The makeup is also a popular makeup in the Tang Dynasty, with a very white foundation on the face, a deep blush, and a thick lip grease on the lips, imitating the heart-shaped lip makeup popular in the Tang Dynasty, and even the eyebrows are shaved into the kind of thick and thick black broad eyebrows that were popular in the Tang Dynasty.
In terms of shape alone, it has the charm of a noble young woman in the Tang Dynasty, and Long Xi gave her ninety points.
But even people like Mo Kun, who rarely watch movies, can see that playing the young woman of the Tang Dynasty is obviously not in a state, and she wants to make a domineering appearance but can't restrain her mind, and her lines are stammering, "You don't want to be a concubine?
Oh, Long Xi remembered that she was Zhong Chun, who used to be the assistant of the big star Cheng Yimei, who worked for the tiger. Because her makeup was too thick, she didn't recognize Zhong Chun immediately.
Bai Bing's eyes were filled with crystal tears, and the words he said were sonorous but not lost the shyness and innocence unique to a girl, "I just want to be by his side for the rest of my life, be his confidant, study recipes with him, eat all the world's delicacies together, improve recipes together, and fly kites together...... I have no regrets for the rest of my life!"
Zhong Chun seemed to be infected by her emotions, her right hand was clenched to her chest, trembling slightly, and tears flowed down like pearls with broken threads. The grief of mourning was so real! She finally couldn't control herself anymore and fell to her knees and wept bitterly.
“CUT!” Director Zou shouted, "Zhong Chun, what are you doing? Mrs. Duan in the script is a woman who loves face very much, and she will never cry like this in front of her rival in love. You're OUT. ”
Screenwriter Lin, who was sitting on the left hand side of Director Zou, whispered to him: "Director Zou, she was recommended by Dean Jin. ”
Director Zou said bluntly: "So what? Producer Cai, you know me." I always pick people based on whether they are suitable or not. Anyway, I've offended half of the people in the film industry, and I'm not afraid of one more!"
Screenwriter Lin whispered: "I don't mean anything else, and I'm not that kind of person." Just let you not talk too much. Let me ask her first. ”
Director Zou kept silent with a tiger face, which can be regarded as acquiescence.
Screenwriter Lin asked Zhong Chun: "If I'm not mistaken, this little girl should have just suffered bereavement, right?"
Zhong Chun cried and nodded, choked up and said, "Yes, my boyfriend...... I just passed away, and I'm in a bad mood! Actually, I've been preparing for this audition for a long time. I, I'm really confident that I can play this role well! Director Zou and producer Cai, can you give me another chance?"
Screenwriter Lin said euphemistically: "Your current state is really not suitable. Well, you go to Audition Room 2 next door and give it a try. There is a role of a female official next to the queen, and I think you should be able to do it. ”
Zhong Yin said: "But I don't want to play a maid anymore! Isn't a female official just a more advanced maid?"
Screenwriter Lin patiently persuaded: "You should know that in Director Zou's movie, even a group performance that appears for less than a minute will be very outstanding." Are you sure you don't want to give it a try?"
Director Zou said mercilessly: "Then don't waste our precious time." Next. ”
Zhong Chun wiped away her tears and said, "Zhou Yan, I will come to audition for your next movie." ”
Director Zou said: "I don't have a problem with this. You get out!"
The staff opened the door.
Zhong Chun covered her face and walked out.
Long Xi didn't see that it was her for a while.
Immediately after, a girl in a red popper suit walked onto the stage.
Director Zou asked Bai Bing to play Mrs. Duan this time.
