Chapter 70 Serving as the male lead and polishing his acting skills

"The Tuner".

Listening to the name, it doesn't look like a suspense movie, but has a strong sense of musical theater.

Chen Ming didn't say much, but asked Xu Manke to read the script first.

subsequently

Chen Ming began to look at Xu Manke's studio on his own.

I have to say,

As a first-line actress, Xu Manke has created a studio that is much more professional and high-end in terms of facilities and environment.

This made Chen Ming a little puzzled.

Judging from her schedule, she shouldn't have time to direct and act in micro-movies, why do she suddenly want to be a director herself?

Could it be that the end of the actor is the director?

Chen Ming shook his head slightly, leaving these distracting thoughts behind.

Half an hour later,

Xu Man can read the entire script.

There is only one thought left in my heart: I am terrified to think about it!

If you think about it carefully, the horror details are much more terrifying than the reversals on the surface.

No wonder Chen Ming said that it is suspenseful, and even the connotation of the drama "Tuner" faintly transcends the concept of suspense.

If I had to describe it in one word, it would be human nature.

The wickedness of human nature can be seen at a glance!

It's a very good movie.

But here's the problem......

This is Huaguo.

The crime rate in China has always been low, and the highest proportion of arrests throughout the year is mainly theft.

Can such an impactful movie really be accepted by the public?

No way.

Xu Man is using his net worth to make this movie.

So, she had to think about everything.

"Chen Ming, you ...... this script"

Xu Manke wanted to say that this script was too bold and not easy to be accepted by the audience, but for some reason, she felt that it would be a pity not to shoot it.

When this movie was made, the box office was definitely not low!

Chen Ming saw Xu Manke's hesitation, and said with a smile: "Miss Xu, let them also read the script." ”

As soon as the words fell, the group of students from Communication University also seemed a little impatient.

Xu Manke passed on the script.

A group of students huddled together and began to flip page by page.

Another half an hour passed,

The group of students gasped.

Is this a script that a normal person can come up with?

Thinking of this, this group of students quietly glanced at Chen Ming, and there was a little more fear in their hearts.

Chen Ming asked, "What do you think of this script?" ”

The students were silent.

Honestly, it's great!

But like Xu Manke, they feel that the innovation of the script this time is too great.

Or to put it another way, how can people be as dark as they are in the script?

They grew up in China and never even had their wallets stolen, so they naturally didn't believe in the things described in the script and felt that they were exaggerating.

Looked at

Xu Manke worded slightly: "Chen Ming, this script is great." ”

"But some are too ..... Exaggeration. ”

After thinking about it for a long time,

Xu Man can only be described in two words: exaggeration.

Chen Ming took out his mobile phone, clicked on Huabo's hot search list, found the hot search of the young pianist who was killed, and said: "It's not an exaggeration. ”

On the screen of the mobile phone, there is a picture of a pianist lying in a pool of blood.

These days,

Xu Manke was worried about the script, and he didn't have time to pay attention to Huabo's hot search list, but he didn't expect such a big event to happen.

Big deal indeed!

This kind of news of someone dying tragically at home is rare for China in 50 years.

Because of this,

This hot search will be pushed to about 100 hot searches.

Other students gathered around, also curiously looking at this hot search.

Xu Manke thought for a moment and asked, "You got the inspiration from this news?" ”

"Sort of."

Chen Ming said perfunctorily.

"My original intention in writing this script is not to want people to forget the darkness hidden in the shadows because of the beauty of the present."

"It's a bit big about innovation, but it's also philosophical."

"At the very least, it's okay to earn back the cost!"

The last sentence, Chen Ming said to Xu Manke.

What is Xu Manke most afraid of?

I'm most afraid of losing money!

Chen Ming is very confident in his heart, even if this short film is not accepted by the public, it can definitely earn back the cost.

generally

Xu Man is not a loss.

Wen Yan,

Xu Manke turned his head to look at the group of students and asked, "What are your opinions?" ”

The students looked hesitant, then exchanged their heads and plucked up the courage to say, "I think I can give it a try." ”

This script is very attractive.

For their group of ungraduated Communication University students, curiosity is higher than salary.

Of course

If they can get a good script, they don't want to be paid!

Chen Ming nodded and said with a smile: "Miss Xu, what are you thinking about?" ”

Xu Manke was silent for a long time.

After a long time, she looked directly into Chen Ming's eyes, and her eyes were full of determination: "Yes, I passed." ”

This is the first film she directed and acted in!

Her debut novel!!

In that case, be bold.

Instead of only thinking about returning to the basics, what kind of movie are you making?

After making up his mind, Xu Manke also completely let go and followed Chen Ming to fight.

Chen Ming's face was slightly happy, and he said: "Since the script has been approved, let's determine the characters of the script as soon as possible." As for some group performances, it should not cost much. ”

This year, hundreds of dollars a day, and there are many dedicated group performances.

Xu Manke nodded.

The movie "Tuner" is a test of acting skills.

Especially the facial expression of the male protagonist,Every moment needs to make subtle changes,And this change is hidden under the sunglasses。

Chen Ming's own acting skills are not enough.

But unfortunately, the acting skills of male students at Communication University are not as good as Chen Ming, so the role of the male protagonist falls to Chen Ming.

There are two female characters with a strong presence in the play.

One is a married woman who has an affair with the police, and the other is the male protagonist's love object, which is the real female protagonist.

After some discussion, Xu Manke decided to play the role of a married woman by himself; The male protagonist's love object fell on a cute female student.

This girl's name is also very cute, called Wu Xiaoxiao.

"Print a few copies of this script, and each of you will have one copy, and when you go back, you will study the character's personality traits and inner emotions by yourself."

"A week later, we met here for an audition."

"The scene part of the audition is set for the male protagonist to come to the door for a piano performance, and the female and male anti-characters test whether they are really blind."

"Questions?"

Xu Man has the style of a strong woman.

The students replied: "No." ”

Chen Ming has no doubt, in addition to going to Yuncheng University to skip classes, he has another difficult task.

Truth be told,

He didn't have faith.

Originally, he just wanted to be a passerby, even if he didn't have lines, he could show his face.

But I never thought that

He actually became the male lead!

As if seeing Chen Ming's concern, Xu Manke patted Chen Ming's shoulder and said softly: "From today onwards, you will spare two hours a day to come to me, and I will train you in acting skills." ”

"You set the time yourself, if you really don't have time, it's okay."

The acting skills of the protagonist have a huge impact on the whole play.

Xu Manke also knew the pressure on Chen Ming, and this was all she could do.

Chen Ming thought about his schedule, and two hours a day was still no problem.

"Okay, I'm sorry for you, Miss Xu."

"Call me by name."

"Then I'll call you Sister Manke in the future."

Xu Manke is a few years older than Chen Ming, so it is appropriate for Chen Ming to call him sister.

Before everyone left, Xu Manke specially advised: The script must not be leaked.

This is a very innovative idea.

If someone else copied it, it would be a huge loss!

The crowd dispersed.

Chen Ming was the last to leave, and Xu Manke did not stay, she needed to study the role positioning of "married woman" in the script.

More critically, she was intrigued by the role.

Chen Ming stood on the street, hesitating in his heart.

"Acting is a big problem."

Chen Ming muttered.

Besides Xu Manke, is there anyone else who knows about acting?

If you think about it,

It seems that there really is!

Childish!!

Tong Ran's father is a director of national television, and he should know some knowledge about acting since he was a child.

Do you want to trouble Tong Ran?

Chen Ming was very entangled.
