Chapter Twenty-Seven: Opportunities on the Basketball Court (Asking for Collections, Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Gradually, the drama academy has been open for three months, and Gu Bei has not received a new play, so he studied quietly for a while, and Pony Galloping took good care of Gu Bei in this regard.
“1563,4345,4536251……”
Gu Bei's fingers plucked the guitar strings a little awkwardly, and there was a feeling that his fingers couldn't keep up with his thoughts, and after a long time, Gu Bei put the guitar down.
"What do you learn to play the guitar for? Let's go, play basketball. Deng Chao, who had changed into sportswear, walked to Gu Bei's side with a basketball in his hand.
Gu Bei rubbed his head and said, "Brother Chao, I'm not very good at playing basketball, you can find Lao Guo and Shi Zhan." ”
"If they're free, I'll be able to find you." Deng Chao said and directly put the basketball on the ground and sat down, "But I said what are you doing with guitar?" ”
"Boring...... You don't know how boring I am after class, I can't learn acting all day, not to mention whether it has any effect, and it is easy to drive myself crazy. ”
"Yes, too much."
Gu Bei nodded, and then said: "In addition, the company also wants me to learn a little more musical instruments, so I picked a guitar polishing time." ”
Hearing Gu Bei's words, Deng Chao suddenly remembered something and asked, "How is your album?" ”
"It's miserable...... I'm really not very good at singing, and although my voice is pretty good, I can't really sing and I can't capture the hearts of the audience. Gu Bei is still a little disappointed, after all, it is the result of his own efforts, "This piece in Beiping is selling well, but the sales nationwide are relatively low, only 30,000 have been sold so far, and the final sales are estimated to be no more than 50,000." ”
The popularity of Pony Galloping Company in Beiping is quite high, and the scope of work is basically in Beiping, so the publicity in Beiping and several nearby provinces is in place, "Spectator" has sold a fairly acceptable sales, but it is not good in other regions, Pony Galloping's influence is not enough, and it is not a professional music and record company.
Of course, propaganda is only a small part of the reason, mainly because Gu Bei can't sing well.
"30,000 copies is already very good, and many newcomers release records, and the sales can't exceed 10,000." Deng Chao comforted Gu Bei, and said with a smile, "Okay, don't be emotional, these 30,000 albums are enough for you to make a lot of money, play basketball, stay in the dormitory, you are about to get moldy." ”
Gu Bei thought about it, then nodded: "Wait for me to change my clothes." ”
A few minutes later, Gu Bei and Deng Chao appeared on the basketball court, and as far as the eye could see, there was no empty ball rack, but fortunately, Deng Chao usually came to play basketball, met a lot of friends, and said hello to one of the waves, and the two of them were added.
There is also a person Gu Bei knows, Liu Ye from the 96-level star class, but now he is only a student who has not debuted, and the reputation of the 96-level star class has not yet come out, and it is about this time that Zhang Ziyi, Liu Ye, and Qin Hailu will receive the drama and become famous.
"Hey! Gu Bei, what do you think? ”
Hearing Deng Chao's reminder, Gu Bei didn't think much about it anymore, and relaxed to play the center, although he was not very good at it, but he also relied on the height advantage of 187 after putting on shoes, stealing a few rebounds, covering a few big hats extremely handsomely, and Gu Bei, who had won a lot of assists, did not drag his team back.
When a group of big boys were having fun, a few middle-aged men dressed more formally appeared on the basketball court, and Gu Bei and the others naturally noticed it, after all, their clothes didn't match the basketball court.
A few people took a turn around the basketball court, and then slowly stood on the edge of the court of Gu Bei and the others, as if talking about something.
Although they were curious, Gu Bei and a few people didn't stop, they played by themselves, until the meal, a group of people began to disperse slowly, and a few middle-aged people just now also walked up at this time and stopped Gu Bei and Liu Ye, and Deng Chao stayed with Gu Bei.
"Who are you?" Liu Ye asked directly and curiously.
One of them smiled and said, "Hello, we originally came to the North Opera for casting, and we happened to see you when we passed by the basketball court, and I feel that you may be more suitable." ”
Hearing this, whether it was Liu Ye or Gu Bei, their hearts moved.
"Oh, by the way, my name is Huo Jianqi, and I'm a director, I don't know if you've heard of it." As he spoke, Huo Jianqi pointed to a person beside him, "This is also Teacher Li Bo of your school's teaching affairs, you should know each other." ”
"Director Huo, Teacher Li, hello." Gu Bei really knows the two people in front of him, although Li Bo has never seen it, he also knows that he is a teacher of teaching affairs, Huo Jianqi is also a well-known director now, and the people around him often talk about things in the circle, and Huo Jianqi is naturally one of the topics.
But what really made Huo Jianqi famous was "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog", by the way, this play was played by Liu Ye...... Gu Bei glanced at Liu Ye beside him, and suddenly understood something.
Li Bo also smiled at this time and said: "This is Liu Ye, a student in Teacher Chang Li's class, speaking of which, there have been several stars in their class, and recently there is a little girl named Zhang Ziyi who cooperated with director Zhang Yimou." ”
There are only a few people who come and go in the acting department, and it is not surprising that Li Bo knows Liu Ye, not to mention that there are still many classes with wrists.
Li Bo looked at Gu Bei again and introduced Huo Jianqi: "He is Gu Bei, he just filmed "Carry Love to the End" directed by Zhang Yibai not long ago, and the impact on all aspects after the broadcast is good, this is Deng Chao who is in the same class as Gu Bei, and their head teacher Tian Youliang has a high evaluation of Deng Chao and is very aura, but I also heard that he is the most skinny student in recent years. ”
"......" Deng Chao opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but found that what Li Bo said was indeed the truth.
Gu Bei watched Deng Chao take a deflated face, and he also smiled, thinking that Deng Chao was really famous.
"How?" Li Bo asked Huo Jianqi again, "Do you need to find a conference room for you to talk to?" ”
"I want to think about it......" Huo Jianqi looked carefully at Gu Bei for a while, then carefully observed Liu Ye, and finally crossed Deng Chao's face directly, and after a long silence, he said, "Are you interested in making my movie "That Mountain, That Man and That Dog"?" ”
Gu Bei and Liu Ye both lacked opportunities, so they naturally nodded, but Gu Bei still said one more word: "Director Huo, I also want to participate in your movie, but I have already signed an economic company." ”
"It's fine, I'll contact your agent if it's appropriate." After Huo Jianqi finished speaking, he continued, "I have watched a little bit of your "Carry Love to the End", and the performance is very good. ”
"Thank you, Director."
"Hmm...... Liu Ye, where is your hometown? Huo Jianqi is still a little inclined to Liu Ye in his heart, and Liu Ye's slightly melancholy temperament is very suitable for the role in the play.
"Northeastern."
"Northeast ...... Do you speak Hunan dialect? ”
Gu Bei watched the conversation between the two people on the side, and knew that his hope was gradually fading, Liu Ye's personality was more introverted, which was more suitable for the image of the son in "That Mountain, That Man, That Dog".
"No, it won't." Liu Ye replied.
Huo Jianqi looked at Gu Bei again, and Gu Bei, who knew about it, said: "Director Huo, I don't know how to speak Hunan dialect, but the father in "That Mountain, That Man and That Dog" walked out of the mountains when he was young, and he is considered an intellectual in the eighties, so he doesn't have to speak Hunan in daily life, Mandarin will be better." ”
Huo Jianqi was surprised, looked at Gu Bei and said, "Have you read this novel by Peng Jianming?" ”
"Hmm...... Sort of. Gu Bei thought that he was Gu Bei and an HC old demon, and it was no problem to say that he had seen it.
"Tell me." Huo Jianqi was obviously interested.
Gu Bei pondered for a moment and said, "Director Huo, Teacher Li, I don't see it very deeply, I can only say the most superficial thoughts. Let's start with the name, 'that mountain, that man, that dog', 'that mountain' is to tell a story in a mountain, 'that man' is the postman's father and son, 'that dog' is a soil dog, and the dog in the mountain is also the dog that delivers letters. ”
Hearing this, Huo Jianqi shrugged his shoulders and said, "Go on." ”
"My father is the only postman in the mountains, and I need to walk hundreds of miles to deliver letters in the mountains, and I can't go home for a long time, and my son naturally rarely sees his postman father, and over time, although my son and father are relatives, they are very strange to each other, and it is precisely because of strangeness that my son does not understand my father, and I rarely communicate with my father, and I don't even call the postman 'Dad'."
"So what?" Huo Jianqi looked at Gu Bei with interest.
"So, it's not a simple story in the mountains, it's a story between most fathers and sons, because in many cases, the father picks up the child, and then there is no way to support the family, so it's a common problem, it's just put in the mountains."
"Are you focusing on the father and the son, rather than the mundane and great story of the father delivering a letter to the mountain?" Huo Jianqi asked.
"Hmm......" Gu Bei pondered for a moment and said, "That's what people who read this story need to consider, this story is just about the son inheriting his father's business, but this story of the son inheriting his father's business is ordinary great." ”
"Ordinary greatness, that's right, can you tell me what you think of the father and the son?"
