Chapter 39: The Restless Amateur Actor
Li Chengru came to the Journey to the West preparatory group for two weeks, and Director Yang Jie's evaluation of him was - down-to-earth.
At that time, when Gu Bei heard the evaluation of these two words from the old lady's mouth, he almost jumped up directly.
Li Chengru can also be regarded as a down-to-earth person?
If he is really down-to-earth, there will be no "special special" in the capital in the future, let alone the big boss Li who can live next to the Forbidden City.
Life is endless, and the toss is endless.
This is probably Li Chengru's life creed.
Earlier, I worked as a sand turner in a steel factory, and if I was someone else, I would never be willing to let go if I didn't gnaw on this iron rice bowl for a lifetime.
But Li Chengru's character determines that the same days are a kind of torment for him.
So, he began to show off in various theatrical performances organized by the factory, singing, singing, and even dancing cheekily in front of all the female workers.
The advantage of jumping more and more is that he was taken by the propaganda department of the factory, and he became an officer of the propaganda department from a sand turner.
From a blue-collar worker to a white-collar worker all of a sudden, he has achieved leapfrog progress in life, should be satisfied, right?
If it were anyone else, they would be content.
Li Chengru is no one else.
At first, maybe it was just because he was too tired from work and wanted to change his job that he behaved like a literary and artistic activist, but he really had more contact, and Li Chengru really liked it.
In his previous life, Li Chengru gave people the impression of a bald and poisonous tongue, but when he was young, the young man was still secretive, plus he was versatile, could sing and dance, and fiddled with various musical instruments.
As a result, Bole, who had a discerning eye, selected him into the Capital Workers' Amateur Drama Troupe.
After a few years of mixing, Li Chengru was not satisfied again, and was painstakingly admitted to the Beijing Film Amateur Actor Training Class and became Gu Bei's classmate.
However, the two have never met before, the amateur actor training class is located in Haidian, and Gu Bei only learned about it after Li Chengru came to the preparatory group, and the two of them still have this bad fate.
If everything continues to develop like in his previous life, Li Chengru will work for the crew of "Journey to the West" for many years, during which he has been fired many times, and the specific reasons are unknown.
Later, this guy also caught up with the fashion, took a leave of absence in the factory, and learned to do business.
Gu Bei had seen an exclusive interview with Li Chengru in his previous life, and when he was at his worst, his assets exceeded 10 million, you must know that it was in the nineties.
As for why he didn't let the big boss do it later, ran to become an actor, and frequently played small cameos in film and television dramas, it is unknown.
Maybe it's because Boss Li is tired of the life of a rich man and wants to live another life.
But no matter what, Yang Jie said that he was down-to-earth, and Gu Bei absolutely couldn't agree.
Fortunately, the old lady followed up and added another comment - that is, there are many words.
That's very pertinent.
"Xiao Gu, let's go, let's eat together."
Coming out of the conference room, Li Chengru got together with Gu Bei again.
"Okay! Wait for me to call Brother Zhang. ”
Gu Bei didn't dare to be alone with Li Chengru, this thing's mouth was too broken, and he could talk about it for a long time without stumbling when he picked up a topic.
Calling Lao Zhang together, these two people are equal.
As soon as he sat down after finishing the meal, before the first bite of food was delivered to his mouth, Li Chengru began to talk in the vernacular.
Fortunately, Lao Zhang, who also likes to talk, Gu Bei sat on the side, watching the two of them talk endlessly.
For Tang Seng, Li Chengru is really a little obsessed, and catching Wang Yue is a pickpocket, anyway, what comes out of his mouth, Wang Yue is simply useless.
"If you really want to act, go to Director Yang yourself!"
"I ......"
Li Chengru was just about to lift his spirits, but he was deflated in a blink of an eye.
"It's almost the same for you to help me talk about, if I go to Director Yang, it will definitely be no fun."
When someone introduced him to the Journey to the West preparatory group before, Li Chengru's idea was that if he could play a role in it.
After coming, his ambitions began to expand, and he actually aimed at Tang Sanzang.
Gu Bei knew that Li Chengru didn't dare to tell Director Yang Jie, but he had already said it, but unfortunately, he was rejected by Director Yang.
"Do your job well, don't think about that mess."
Obviously, Li Chengru has extravagant expectations for the role of Tang Seng, that is, whimsical.
"What do you think? Let me go and say it for you, pull it down, I don't feel uncomfortable looking for it. ”
The four masters and apprentices have been basically finalized, and Yang Jie has also reported to the leaders of the stage, although there are criticisms, but according to Yang Jie's temper, no matter how many different opinions there are, the old lady is all farting, and she will not care at all.
Li Chengru actually wanted to change the general trend of the preparatory group, which was simply wishful thinking.
Lao Zhang listened on the sidelines, and laughed from time to time: "Xiao Li, if you want me to say, you better forget it, I really annoyed Director Yang, but I don't have your good fruit to eat." ”
Alas......
Li Chengru was full of helplessness.
I would have turned my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shone on the ditch.
He knew that Gu Bei and Lao Zhang were both good for him, and he was not an employee of CCTV, but he was temporarily seconded to help, and he could do his job with peace of mind.
But his character is destined to be steadfast, and the words "steadfast" are not close to him at all.
I don't know when, I'll have to toss something happen.
"Eh, Xiao Gu, how about you say I play the king of the black chicken country?"
"Fuck off!"
Gu Bei scolded angrily.
At the earlier meeting, Yang Jie had already decided, and the prince of Wuji asked Gu Bei to play in the trial episode.
Li Chengru's idea of beating Tang Seng failed, and he actually aimed at the king of Wuji Country again.
This is to take advantage of Gu Bei!
"Look, why are you in a hurry, this is art, and it doesn't involve ethics, you! Looking. ”
Hehe!
Gu Bei was really too lazy to take care of this goods, and if Li Chengru didn't have the slightest intention of taking advantage, he would immediately die with his head.
"If you want me to watch, you can play a eunuch at most."
Burst......
Lao Zhang looked at the two of them arguing, and suddenly heard such a sentence, and laughed directly.
What's going on?
Got meat?
Otherwise, how could you be happy like this?
Although he was choked by the blow, it was difficult for Li Chengru to extinguish this thought.
For the next period of time, Gu Bei could always see Li Chengru dangling in front of Yang Jie when he had nothing to do, even walking in a posture, and he was also in a tone when reporting work, for fear that others would not know that he had also learned acting seriously.
He was so careful that he couldn't even hide it from the uncle in the communication room.
Finally, Director Yang Jie couldn't stand it anymore, but Li Chengru was invited from outside to help after all, and it was not good to let him go away directly, so he could only use a tactful way to let him retreat.
When a meeting was about to end, Yang Jie simply asked Li Chengru to try out the play in front of everyone.
Anyone can see that Director Yang Jie is perfunctory, but Li Chengru is the only one who admits the truth.
immediately staged a scene that had been prepared for a long time.
Gu Bei watched from the sidelines, what did he say?
Like sitting on pins and needles, like a fish in the throat, like a thorn in the back.
The current Li Chengru is indeed a little tender, and he is not at all free as the later real estate maniacs, and the way of performing and the stage traces are obvious, which completely violates the life of director Yang Jie.
In this way, I also hope to impress the director with my own ability.
Hehe!
"Or ...... When the time comes, you shave your hair and let you play a monk to have a good time. ”
Director Yang Jie is absolutely sincere, but it is a bit hurtful to say it at this moment.
Li Chengru's expectant face collapsed in an instant, he knew that from this moment on, Tang Seng had completely bowed to him.
"Okay, no, not really."
After the meeting, Gu Bei saw that Li Chengru was hit hard, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.
Others don't know what's going on, they just think Gu Bei is a warm-hearted person, but he understands it in his heart.
Lao Li Ke must not be depressed.
Gu Bei also hopes to do business with this little surfer of the times in the future.
Alas......
Li Chengru sighed: "You don't understand. ”
Indeed, Gu Bei didn't understand, he didn't think about being an actor, he was arranged by Yang Jie to play the prince of the black chicken, all of them were to catch ducks on the shelves, if someone could replace him, he immediately didn't say a word, and directly announced his retirement.
He can not care, but Li Chengru can't!
I thought about it for so long, but my dream was shattered when I looked at it.
He thought he was awesome. Forced, it turned out to be rubbish.
"Okay, I don't understand, what's that, tomorrow week, the graduation drama of the acting department, let's go see it together?"
Gu Bei hurriedly diverted the topic.
Sure enough, when Li Chengru heard it, he immediately had a spirit: "Where are you playing?" Haidian or Changping? ”
Looking at his expression, you can know that this goods are not going to watch a play, but to see a beautiful girl.
I've heard Li Chengru say before that there is a super beautiful girl in their training class, and I don't know if I will go tomorrow.
"It must be Changping!"
Changping is a decent family, and Haidian can only be regarded as a rudder at most, and there is no comparison at all.
For example, if in Changping, the big guy cultivates the eighteen palms of the dragon, and Haidian can learn Shaolin Fuhu Boxing at most.
"Okay, you come to me tomorrow."
"Gotcha!"
Gu Bei said, patted Li Chengru on the shoulder, and didn't continue to comfort, he didn't know how to comfort people.
Go home from work.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and it has been gloomy and gloomy recently, and it can be seen that God is holding back a big move, and I don't know when, a snow can bury the entire capital.
However, there is also a good thing, near the end of December, the wind and sand are gone.
I rode to the gate of the compound and was about to carry my bicycle inside.
"Gu Bei, there is a telegram from you."
When I turned around, I saw the postman riding a bicycle to him, the postman was in charge, and the old residents of this generation who had lived for a long time basically knew him.
"Thank you! Brother Ma! ”
Gu Bei pressed his handprint, took the telegram, opened it and glanced at it, there were only six words on it.
It's done, Ma San!
Counting the days, Ma San'er and Ma Gong'er have been going south for a while, and communication is inconvenient these years, and Gu Bei doesn't know much about what the situation is over there.
Now that it's done, it's probably time to come back.
