Chapter Twenty-Three: Thighs, Here She Comes
"It's really a fairy!"
"Sister Fairy has descended to earth!"
Before the audition began, the stylist had just finished his makeup and hair, which attracted everyone's admiration.
Qiao Zhenzhen looked at the person in the mirror, like herself, but not exactly like herself.
This is said to be changed from the makeup of Zhengdan in Huangmei Opera, which is different from the gorgeous and bewitching tones in the past dramas, and it seems that her whole person is elegant and beautiful, full of antiquity.
There are also a few crystal tear moles under the eyes, and a modern finish is added to the rendered eyeshadow.
It's not like the fairy doesn't know.
However, compared with the roles that the company used to give her the "glamorous pressure" route, she was quite satisfied.
The stylist was still adjusting her hair, and she looked at it with a notebook.
Her character is very simple, that is, to play a fairy.
Well, rounding it off, it can also be regarded as acting in its true colors...... Right?
This movie is adapted from Huangmei's opera "Tianxian Pei", and the theme is not particularly fresh.
In the past few decades, various film and television processing of "Tianxian Pei" has emerged, including the renamed "Seven Fairies of Joy" and "Flying Immortals", each version has its own characteristics.
The difference is that Director Chen is a theater lover, and his idea is to add a lot of Huangmei Opera elements to the movie, including some singing segments.
In order to inherit the classics and carry forward the Chinese culture.
Even the leading actors are Zhengsheng and Zhengdan who went to the troupe to invite.
But this alone can't do it, the market doesn't recognize any artists in the troupe, there is no traffic, no stars, who watches, and the investors are not very happy.
Director Chen thought of a way to invite some traffic stars to make cameos, after all, there are seven fairies alone, and it is no problem to stuff a girl group in.
But ideas are ideas, and it's actually quite difficult to operate.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately looked like an audition, and the brokerage companies rushed up to dock, and the artist's information was stuffed in front of Director Chen like snowflakes.
What is opera adaptation, it is art!
If you can show your face in the movie, you will change from a traffic flower to an artist at once, and your worth will double, which is much easier than studying for a PhD in film and television studies.
This is a matter of ten years less detour.
It's just that it's hard for Director Chen's team.
first screen out some of the "artificial people" who can't cry or laugh, and then screen out some of the "variety shows" who can't cry or laugh.
In the end, I had to secretly investigate whether there was a legal coffee, so as not to spoil a pot of soup by a mouse dropping......
picked and chosen, and Director Chen was very angry.
These artists in these years can be described as illiterate.
Someone actually took the script and asked him what the "pack" of "carrying the flat shoulder to the hill" reads......
It's hard, it's really hard.
As for Qiao Zhenzhen, the actor, Director Chen didn't want to contact him, after all, other people's dramas have just exploded.
You don't see it, there are many actresses who refuse when they hear that they want to be amateurs.
And as we all know, Qiao Zhenzhen is a "semi-literate", it seems that she has not even studied in college, can she study what is Chinese history and what is artistic heritage?
If it wasn't for the old sister who introduced him to him, Director Chen would never have thought of this person.
As a result, I chatted with Qiao Zhenzhen so casually yesterday......
Well, the old sister is mighty!
Found a treasure.
What he didn't know was that Qiao Zhenzhen really didn't study Chinese history, she was a witness to history.
The content of the audition is also very simple, just sing a part of "Four Praises of the Fairy".
It's a piece of cake.
"Not bad, not bad. Zhenzhen, do you have any thoughts on our look, makeup and hair, or the overall script? "After the song, Director Chen is quite satisfied.
The person in front of him is smiling and beautiful, which is very in line with the image and temperament of a fairy.
Qiao Zhenzhen thought for a while, and muttered, "This dress doesn't seem to be big, right?" ”
Director Chen's face changed.
"This dress looks so good!" The agent Sister Mei looked at her frantically on the side, what kind of demon is her artist doing?
Director Chen interrupted her: "Do you think there is anything wrong with this dress?" ”
The costumes and makeup are mainly modified from the classic appearance of Huangmei Opera, just like Director Li's "Dream of Red Mansions".
"As far as I know, although the formation period of Huangmei Opera itself can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty, the formal formation was at the end of the Qing Dynasty." Well, this part is the knowledge that has just been made up in the car.
"Not bad." Director Chen cast an approving look.
The girl looked at it and went back to study.
"But the version of "Tianxian Pei" filmed this time, the script says that it is adapted from the earliest "The Legend of Dong Yongyu Xian"?"
"Not bad." Director Chen nodded, it seems that the script is also reading seriously. Not bad.
"But this "The Legend of Dong Yong Meets Immortals" is adapted from the Eastern Han Dynasty, 24 filial piety, "Dong Yong Sells Himself", and the first recorded miscellaneous drama was in the Yuan Dynasty."
Aren't the few little fairies that Dong Yong met two thousand years ago who were with her in the mountains and threshing fruits together?
"Yes, yes, that's right, you go on." Director Chen was very happy, but he didn't expect this little girl to study quite thoroughly.
"I think the costumes should highlight the storytelling of the film, so that the audience can be more immersed in the story, rather than a superficial art form."
Qiao Zhenzhen doesn't quite understand, isn't acting in costumes just a play?
She continued: "We can actually draw up an era for this film, and then make the film itself more contemporary by serving the Tao.
"It can be the Han Dynasty or the Song Dynasty, but if you wear costumes throughout the whole process, it may not have the effect of promoting Huangmei Opera itself."
As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent.
Some people stared at Qiao Zhenzhen with a smile, and said in their hearts that Director Chen wanted to show the elements of Huangmei Opera in an all-round way, so many artists and teachers didn't say anything, a young actor with no education was stumbling around here?
Director Chen naturally didn't answer.
This is indeed a little different from what he envisioned, showing the elements of Huangmei Opera in an all-round way.
But it's not entirely unreasonable.
In fact, Director Li's "Dream of Red Mansions", the audience also reacted mediocre. There are still posts on the Internet complaining about makeup, hair, and kimonos, and they have been made into emojis.
"Okay, okay, what do you know about Huangmei Opera." Sister Mei was about to cry.
She kind of understands that this Qiao Zhenzhen doesn't know how to read people's eyes again. Last night, I thought that she could win a role by herself, and she did a good job, and she could offend Director Chen to death today.
Qiao Zhenzhen looked at Sister Mei speechlessly, look at this is in a hurry for you.
She thought about it for a moment, but added:
"If you have to have costume elements, you can actually use the form of Huangmei opera singing at the beginning as a narration, and cut in."
Director Chen raised his eyes, looked at Qiao Zhenzhen with a frown, spoke, and considered something, and finally said, "You go back first." ”
Sister Mei looked at this expression and secretly screamed that it was not good, it was over, it was over.
This contract is almost a matter of signing and sealing, and it is returned by someone at the door.
"Okay, thank you Director Chen."
Qiao Zhenzhen doesn't care, she is a thousand-year-old demon, and she cares what she is not an artist.
In contrast, it's more important to be honest, after all, this Director Chen is quite good, and he doesn't have much of a fight.
She went out and took off her makeup and changed her clothes, got into her nanny car, knocked her head, why did she always feel that she forgot a big thing after getting up today, what is it?
So he poked the assistant in the front row: "What's my itinerary today?" ”
The assistant opened the memo: "Well, it's an audition in the morning, I'm going to a cold lunch party at noon, cutting ribbons and shooting magazine covers in the afternoon, and connecting live in the evening...... Nope. ”
What is it?
Qiao Zhenzhen was stunned.
Sister Mei pulled the car door and sat up scolding.
Director Chen said that he wanted to think about things, and the contract was naturally not signed.
"Let me tell you, Qiao Zhenzhen, you only have one drama contract with the company, but there are still two years left in the contract, you have just become popular now, and you are not a first-line celebrity, so if you practice your connections like this, do you want to pay liquidated damages in the future?"
"What?"
Qiao Zhenzhen has listened to this kind of preaching a lot, and it has always been in the left ear and out of the right ear.
Seeing her like this, Sister Mei became even more angry: "You are a star, you can't talk to the director well, you have nothing to do with the psychiatric hospital police station every day, what are you going to do?!" ”
"Stop! You repeat! ”
"What the hell are you going to do?!"
"Not this sentence, the previous sentence."
"It's okay every day...... from the psychiatric hospital police station Bah, what a mess, Qiao Zhenzhen, are you finished? ”
"That's right!" Qiao Zhenzhen's eyes lit up, "Call me!" ”
"What call?"
"What you said last night, the phone number of the Happiness Police Station!"
What kind of acting is famous, well, plus falling in love, it's all a yarn.
Now the key is her thighs, Feng He.
