Chapter 93: The Child (Part 1)
As soon as the dish came out, everyone sensed that something was wrong.
Stir-fried green beans with green vegetable fragments, mapo tofu shreds, and beef bean cubes......
A middle-aged man with long hair picks up a carrot slice that is as light as confetti and is as thin as a transparent carrot and asks his aunt if he is experimenting with a new dish.
The aunt glanced at Guan Chen secretly.
Everyone remembered that Guan Chen had been summoned into the kitchen, and immediately understood what was going on.
"The young man has a lot of ideas, like he is engaged in art." The long-haired middle-aged man who eats sliced carrots jokes.
"It's okay, it's okay." Guan Chen waved his hand humbly, "I'm just an ordinary office worker. ”
A couple of old guns laughed.
He asked Guan Chen, "Where did you graduate?" ”
"Yunman." After Guan Chen finished answering, he was already expecting the other party's surprised look or tone in his heart.
However......
Not really.
"Yunman." An old cannon nodded lightly, "Yun Man doesn't have an acting department, right?" "It's not a professional class. "Yun Man is still okay. Although it was a compliment, the enthusiasm had obviously subsided. After one of them said, "I went to Yunman to give a lecture last time......", the topic was naturally diverted. They asked where the other juniors graduated, and those juniors were either so-and-so drama school, or so-and-so film school, or so-and-so art university, famous and decent, with a clear path. After listening to this, the veterans will accurately point out the professional teachers of the juniors, and they will express their acquaintance or familiarity with each other, as if they have something to do with everyone in the academy.
Guan Chen was pretended, and hurriedly asked Zhang Jingsheng next to him where the old guys on the other side graduated.
Zhang Jingsheng, who was about the same age as those people opposite, said in his ear, those old cannons were either graduates of top art universities, or they are now teaching at top universities, or they are visiting professors wherever and where. The one who eats carrot slices, graduated from Mizuki University, is now a visiting professor and the dean of the School of Drama at the University of the Arts.
"I see, I see." Guan Chen unconsciously straightened his back. His head is a little dizzy, and an undergraduate realm can make him confused, and now a batch of doctoral realms? Or is it a professor's realm?
In the circle, if an artist can't act well and can't be a singer, everyone will suggest that this person become an idol.
In the previous life, if a student could not read well and did not study well, everyone would suggest that he become an art student.
In this world, the threshold for art schools is extremely high, the tuition fees are expensive, and the enrollment scope includes the whole world. Anyone who wants to enter the art major is either rich or talented, and the space left for bastards is extremely narrow.
Guan Chen now faintly feels like a bastard. Knowledge is like character, if you don't have it, you can't tell if the other party has it. In his previous life, he danced with a knife and a gun, and it was easier to kill a pig than to kill a pig, regardless of whether you were a professor or a dean. But after coming to this world for half a year and studying diligently, Guan Chen has reluctantly opened a crack in front of the door of knowledge, and through the crack in the door, he has learned to revere knowledge. I also know how powerful these old guys are in front of me.
When Guan Chen's mentality was correct, and he listened carefully to what everyone was talking about, he suddenly found that the things that these middle-aged men talked about were not just as simple as criticism and complaints.
"Modern art begins with the recognition of spiritual poverty, and sometimes ends there. This is its greatness, its victory, but at the same time it is also a needle that pierces the sore spot of the philistine, because the last thing the philistine wants to be reminded of is his spiritual poverty. ”
"First-class artists, it's their worldview. The last time I saw a young man with a few bricks, he took a few bricks to the exhibition. I think that's interesting...... They? Of course, they were scolded badly on the spot. ”
The old guns sometimes laughed, sometimes sighed.
The younger generations who sat with them were also very interesting to achieve the same joy and sorrow, and share weal and woe.
Only Guan Chen listened like sitting on pins and needles, like a man on his back. I am afraid that someone will suddenly ask him how a certain teacher at Yunman University is doing, or ask him what his views and opinions on a certain ism.
He had no choice but to force the dive, quickly fill his mouth with food, and after eating early, he could go home early and obediently knock on the required reading list for junior high school students.
Guan Chen thought while eating, today's trip was really not in vain, and he gained a lot.
In the future, if you have itchy hands and want to cut something, you can make a cameo appearance as a cook. Guan Chen suddenly understood why Ah Qi chose to be the owner of a pork shop to hide his identity in "Ling Ling Qi", and how he maintained his amazing knife skills.
Guan Chen ate pork in a big gulp, thinking that he would be idle in the future, and he could go to the vegetable market to cut meat part-time. I just don't know if Little Bear, the king of part-time jobs, has a way to introduce it.
……
On the other side, Director Tian was drinking wine and was talking to Zhang Jingsheng about the things he had just met Guan Chen and had a brief chat.
"How?" Zhang Jingsheng asked.
"Very good." Tian Dao nodded.
Zhang Jingsheng was not surprised.
Because he knew Guan Chen's potential.
At the beginning, Director Tian told him the outline of the new movie and discussed the appropriate actors, and Zhang Jingsheng immediately recommended Guan Chen to play the role of "waste material" in the story.
He put "Can I go to your house tonight?" "Looking for Director Tian to see, Director Tian understood that the house represented a person's inner state, and Guan Chen's house at that time was chaotic, closed, and fragile, just like his state and future. happens to be an actor who has not yet become famous, and he is also depressed, but he is also kind-hearted. After reading it, Director Tian felt that it was a little interesting, so he was willing to meet Guan Chen, a newcomer who has no works.
Today, Zhang Jingsheng called Guan Chen here, instead of facilitating the meeting on other occasions, mainly because Director Tian said that he wanted to see Guan Chen's reaction and state in an unfamiliar environment.
As a result, after Guan Chen came, he did not have the slightest restraint and inferiority, but was very calm, neither humble nor arrogant, and it can even be said that he was a little presumptuous, or he didn't care.
As an actor, Guan Chen was born with a natural and relaxed state. This kind of naturalness and relaxation is very calm. This is very rare, after all, when a person is alone, he does not necessarily face himself completely calmly. Therefore, it is not easy for Guan Chen to perform without traces and without the feeling of "acting". When a director encounters such an aura of "natural actor", he is rarely able to refuse.
"I'm not going to let him play scrap." Tian Dao said: "I plan to let him try the killer. ”
Zhang Jingsheng was a little surprised: "Killer? ”
He glanced at Guan Chen, who didn't care about the content of everyone's chat and only cared about eating meat, thought about it, and affirmed the thoughts of his friends next to him:
"It's good, too."
First of all, Guan Chen's skills are needless to say. Zhang Jingsheng heard Master Yuan's evaluation of Guan Chen on the set, "That is a good bandit."
Secondly, "his eyes are rare," Zhang Jingsheng whispered to Director Tian, "sometimes like a child, as if he doesn't know anything." ”
