Chapter Seventy-Four: The Audition Begins

"Good director, good teachers, my name is Yu Peng, and I want to audition for the second male Ma Xing."

The first actor in today's audition walked in, stood in front of Fang Bo and a few people, introduced himself with a smile, and looked very calm.

From the moment he came in, the audition had already begun.

As he spoke, Fang Bo observed his appearance and demeanor.

This person is about 1.7 meters tall, handsome, with a pair of bright eyes, and he is very confident, and he can't see the slightest nervousness.

The appearance is nothing, because the role needs, when Fang Bo formulated the audition list, he selected actors with this kind of appearance.

So he just took a general look and made sure that the real person was not too different from the previous screen image, and then asked Yu Peng to start acting according to the audition process.

The script for the audition was sent to the actors a few days ago, so Yu Peng did not hesitate, and after preparing for a while, he performed according to the script.

He looked at Fang Bo, his expression was full of excitement, waved his hands, and said happily: "Brother, we really sent it this time!" ”

Since it was only an audition and there were no actors in the play, Fang Bo took over the play and slapped it on the table with his hand, making a "pop" sound, simulating the plot of the actor Ma Jin slapping Ma Xing when he heard this.

Yu Peng also reacted to being beaten, his face turned to the side, covering his right cheek, there was some disbelief in his eyes, and he didn't know why he was slapped like this.

"Hair? You're fainting, you want to stay in prison for the rest of your life?! Fang Bo said the lines of the actor Ma Jin while carefully observing Yu Peng's performance.

After being scolded, Yu Peng frowned, and asked in disbelief: "Brother, aren't all our lives picked up?" ”

He let go of the hand covering his right cheek, and a trace of ruthlessness appeared on his face, "If you don't fight once, let's just go back like this, and there won't be such a good opportunity in the future, brother!" ”

This is a scene in the second half of the movie, Ma Xing's personality has changed, from simple to ruthless, and he would rather do whatever it takes to seize the opportunity to change his status.

Correspondingly, the actor Ma Jin used to regard wealth as his life, but after all kinds of experiences, he finally woke up, and he didn't want to watch his cousin go wrong, so he wanted to persuade him to save him.

The personalities of the two seem to be reversed, and the changes before and after are very dramatic.

"The generator will run out of power in a few days, and the fishing nets will be gone......" Yu Peng continued to say the line.

Fang Bo was not very satisfied with his performance.

The reason why this scene was put in the first audition was because Fang Bo wanted to see if the actor could play Ma Xing's coldness.

But there is a reason for this callousness, Ma Xing was hit by the cruel reality, so he had to climb up desperately.

In fact, this character can feel in his heart that what he is doing is wrong, but he can't care about it so much, he forces himself not to sympathize with others, and deliberately closes his heart.

In Yu Peng's performance, he was cold and cruel, but he did not show inner compassion, which was obviously not enough to figure out the characters.

For the audition of the second male lead, Fang Bo picked a total of three scenes.

After the first scene was auditioned, he didn't give an evaluation for the time being, and asked Yu Peng to finish the remaining two scenes on the script, and then said: "Okay, thank you for your performance, please go back first, we will notify you of the audition results in two days." ”

"Okay, thank you Fang Dao, thank you teachers."

Yu Peng politely bowed slightly to Fang Bo and the others, and then turned around and left.

Fang Bo didn't rush to score on the audition form, but turned his head and asked, "Producer Feng, what do you think of Yu Peng's performance?" ”

Feng Shuming was also a film director in his early years, but he didn't make a few movies without much success, so he simply transformed into a producer.

Having laid the foundation as a director and working in the film industry for several years, he naturally has the vision and experience.

Feng Shuming thought for a while, and then commented: "Director Fang, I think it's okay, Yu Peng's grasp of the emotions of the characters is relatively in place, but there are still common problems of young actors, the acting skills are not mature enough, they can not be put away, and the traces of performance are too obvious." ”

"It does have this problem." Fang Bo nodded lightly, and continued: "And he doesn't have enough psychological understanding of the characters, there is only ruthlessness in the performance, but he can't see the inner struggle, and the character image shown is too thin." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing Fang Bo say this, Feng Shuming was a little puzzled at first.

But after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly understood that he had made the same mistake as Yu Peng, and thought that the personality change of the male number two Ma Xing was too simple, thinking that Ma Xing was a completely blackened villain, so he would recognize Yu Peng's portrayal of the character.

But human nature has always been complex, and where can a person's personality change be so simple.

Ma Xing went from a simple and kind young man to an indifferent and cruel conspirator all of a sudden, such a change is too deliberate, and the character image is not three-dimensional enough.

On the contrary, if as Fang Bo said, after Ma Xing blackened, he has both an ambitious and cold side, but there is actually a hidden kindness in his heart, and this character has become much more real.

"Yes, Director Fang has a point."

After reacting, Feng Shuming smiled awkwardly, but he understood in his heart that this was Fang Bo saving face for himself.

The producer of "A Good Show" is named by Shen Zhuo, but he is usually busy enough to deal with company affairs, so he will not be specifically involved in the production process of the film.

Therefore, Feng Shuming, who served as the executive producer, became the actual person in charge of Huarui Film and Television in the crew.

has a heavy position, is still a director, and has rich experience, but he doesn't even understand an important person like the male number two, which really shouldn't be.

In front of Song Huaiyuan and other senior executives of the company, Fang Bo did not point it out clearly, saving him enough face.

Feng Shuming thought secretly: Fortunately, Director Fang helped cover it up, otherwise it would have been a fool of himself today, it seems that after going back, he should read the script carefully a few more times.

Seeing that he had thought it through, Fang Bo was relieved, bowed his head and scored Yu Peng on the audition form, and then asked the staff to notify the second actor to come in.

But I have to say that it is indeed not easy to play the characters in a real and three-dimensional way, not to mention that some young actors came to audition.

So after auditioning for several people in a row, Fang Bo was not very satisfied.

After witnessing another auditioner leaving, Song Huaiyuan said half-jokingly: "Director Fang, if you want me to say, it's actually good for you to play this role, your age, appearance, acting skills, and understanding of the script are all suitable." ”

Fang Bo waved his hand and refused with a smile: "Don't, just the preparation and shooting of the movie is enough for me to be busy, if I go to play the second male lead again, then I will have to be exhausted." ”

It's already very tiring to be a director, let alone directing and acting, and he doesn't have an addiction to acting, compared to the actors standing in front of the stage, the director who controls the crew behind the scenes is his real ambition.

Playing Li Junwei in "Night Club", it is really impossible to find anyone and save some salary, and now the budget of "A Good Show" is still enough, and it is not unavailable.

The actors on the audition list are all carefully selected by him, no matter how bad they are, there are certain problems with the performances of Yu Peng and others, but it is enough to use just one point, but it is just to be selected.

Therefore, of course, he had no idea of appearing on the camera, and made up his mind to be a behind-the-scenes worker with peace of mind.
