Actors have no vacation

Chapter 3 Interview
"You have money to buy so many books, why don't you have money to buy food?..." Director Zhou asked Guan Chen while browsing the dazzling books.

Guan Chen was also curious about this question, where the hell did all the money go.Then in the process of rummaging through boxes to find change, he found the answer. "I used to have a brainstorm and used all my money to buy books and wine."

With a look of resentment, Guan Chen grabbed a few invoices from the ground. The most frequently purchased ones were wine, cigarettes, and books.

One of the latest invoices was last week.On the back of the invoice is a line of words - [We have all been shaped over and over again by those who love us.As long as they persevere a little, we become their work. 】

Guan Chen couldn't read such unintelligible words, and quickly threw the invoice into a ball.He turned his head and said to Director Zhou, "You can choose any of these books, and you will get a [-]% discount."

The bookcase is full of books, all of which are social sciences, literature, economics, art, philosophy, history, political science, photography... Guan Chen has never read a single one, and he is too lazy to read it.In his eyes, these books are simply hypnotics ready to go.Let him read books honestly, it is better to screw his head off.

"Have you read all these books?" Director Zhou took out the books at random and found that every book he got had reading notes.

"If you read it all, then there is none." Guan Chen nibbled at the buns and answered vaguely.

Director Zhou saw several unopened new books, and thought that Guan Chen was serious about saying that he had not read the new books, "That's amazing."

Guan Chen smiled calmly.

"Which one is your favorite among so many books?" Zhou Dao asked.

"My favorite book is always the next one."

"Well said." Director Zhou sighed and said, "You have too many books here, I don't know which one to buy, why don't you recommend one for me."

Guan Chen subconsciously raised his head to search for the thickest and most expensive book in the bookcase.

The thickest one, it's up to you...

"I recommend this "Criminal Law". Guan Chen looked serious.

Director Zhou was deeply surprised: "Why?"

How can Guan Chen say that because the thicker the book, the more expensive it is.Thinking about it carefully, he found that "Criminal Law" may really be the one he is most familiar with among the many books.

In the previous life, Guan Chen's boss always asked his younger brothers to read more books. Among them, "Criminal Law" was used as a teaching material for employment guidance, and it was even more necessary to read more.Although Guan Chen is sleepy after reading a book, he is very professional. He has to read a few lines before going to bed every day. The effect is always very good. He often falls asleep within a few minutes. I can only do some work of fighting, killing and transporting goods, but in the end I fell asleep.

Now that I see the "Criminal Law", I feel more intimate.

In my last life, I used it as a teaching material for employment guidance. Since I want to be a good citizen in this life, this book has become a guide in another direction.

Facing Director Zhou's inquiries and the camera, Guan Chen suddenly fell deeply. He thought about it and said:
"I like the law very much, because I think the law is the best thing ever invented by man. Do you know what a man is? In my eyes, man is the sum of the divine and the animal; There are also evils that you can't think of, there is no right or wrong, just people. So the law is very cute, it doesn't matter how good you can be, it is to limit you from being evil to the limit; it knows that everyone is so dirty in their hearts It's okay to think about it, but it's not possible to do it. The law is more like the minimum guarantee of human nature, and it is a compulsory cultivation. It is not like religion, which requires you to be superior and inferior, and to tell you in a down-to-earth manner, at least what it should be like .It also talks about human feelings, and it is cruel and ruthless." (Note)
Director Zhou was full of admiration: "That's really good!"

"It's really good." Guan Chen smiled.Looking back on the few seconds just now, I have a wonderful feeling.He had just flashed the corresponding movie clip in his mind just now, but when he came back to his senses, he actually recited a large paragraph of lines smoothly.

Guan Chen was not particularly surprised by this.He began to mix in the society when he was in junior high school. He knew how to read, and he had no education, no teachers and parents. Everything he learned came from two places.One is society and the other is cinema.

Even if he watched a favorite movie over and over a dozen times, he wouldn't get tired of it.Those lines that would make him drowsy when they landed on paper, but as long as they were spoken through dialogue, he could remember them firmly.

The only thing Guan Chen felt a little strange was that when he was reciting his lines just now, his mind sank to another place, which was a little strange.

"Where did you graduate?" Director Zhou interrupted Guan Chen's meditation.

The interview had already started before I knew it.

Guan Chen came back to his senses and thought for a moment that his predecessor seemed to be a cloud university.I couldn't remember, so I just got up and walked to the closet, reached into half of my body and scratched for a while, and then found a graduation photo.

It says [Yunman University] and [Department of Chinese Language and Literature].

Guan Chen recited, "Yunman University."

The young cameraman couldn't hold back, and exclaimed in a low voice, "Yunman's!"

Guan Chen calmly looked at the young cameraman's expression.

In Guan Chen's speculation, the predecessor was so miserable, most of the university was a pheasant university.However, listening to the unconcealed surprise in the tone of the young cameraman, I found that the truth is likely to be the opposite.

He looked at the graduation photo carefully, and found that in the corner of the graduation photo, a few small characters were stamped with bronzing.

[Qingyun is rotten, and it is sloppy.The sun and the moon are bright, and when Fudan comes, "Qingyun Song"]

Hey, why are these two words so familiar... Danfu?Dan Xi?Fu...Dan...Isn't this the otherworldly version of Fudan University!
In his previous life, Fudan was one of the ten universities in the top 5 in the country, and Guan Chen still knew a lot about it.

With the world's urination that the east is strong and the west is weak, it is likely that after blessing, the signboard of the school name is even louder.

To pretend to be a famous university student... Guan Chen felt a little guilty.

"Yunman University, that's no wonder." Director Zhou nodded suddenly, and seemed to think that the legal rhetoric just now came from a graduate of the literature department of a famous university, and it was quite normal.

"When did you start wanting to be an actor?" Director Zhou asked.

"Let's graduate soon." Guan Chen actually didn't know.If Director Zhou hadn't discovered his experience in "Poetic Body", he would not have known that his predecessor was an actor, or that he was an actor.

"Does the family support it?"

Guan Chen smiled meaningfully, leaving plenty of space.In fact, he didn't even know if his predecessor's family was still there, or how much they were there.Because I don't have the predecessor's mobile phone, I can't judge it from the address book.

Zhou Dao can see that Guan Chen is a passive type of interviewee, and he answers every question he asks, and he hardly takes the initiative to extend it.So he waited for a while and found that Guan Chen had stopped talking, so he could only continue to ask:
"Then are you still performing?"

"Probably not anymore."

"Is that so?" Director Zhou said regretfully, "what about other jobs? Is there anything you want to do?"

"I don't have a job," Guan Chen replied calmly, with neither inferiority nor loss on his face. "Selling books now for some money. I haven't thought about what to do in the future."

The last sentence, Guan Chen is serious.In this world, with a new identity and a new living space, it was the first time he felt that the [future] thing, even if it was a plan, did not have to be completed, but just thinking about it could give people a power.

"Isn't it a pity?" Director Zhou asked.

Guan Chen could tell that this sentence is not a pity, it refers to the fact that he finally got admitted to Yunman, and finally gave up his major and went to become an actor. In the end, he didn't become an actor.Whether it is the effort of learning, or the effort of learning to perform.

"I'm born to be useful, I'm not in a hurry." Guan Chen smiled lightly, as if he was very free and easy.

When Director Zhou heard it, he had a face full of [I don't know if I should say it or not], and finally he said: "What you just wanted to say was [I was born with talent, and I will return after all my money is gone], right?" (Note 2)

"..." Guan Chen was silent for a moment, "Just tell me how it will be improved."

Director Zhou complimented him with respect: "[I was born to be useful, and I will return after my daughter is gone]. It is quite catchy, and it is very good to do literature. It seems that professional skills are not wasted at all."

Guan Chen smiled without saying a word.I don't know how many mouths I gave myself.

Let you show off, let you show off!Show off what knowledge!It is too difficult for students of this famous university to act, and they will step on thunder if they are not careful.

He made up his mind that it would be better not to talk about ancient poems, proverbs and sayings.

"Why don't you continue to perform?" Director Zhou seemed to feel pity for Guan Chen and wanted to guide Guan Chen to tell the difficulties.

"It's a bit complicated." Guan Chen refused to say.

"If you tell the camera, you may be seen by some director, and maybe you will have another chance." Zhou Daoban was serious and half-joking.

Guan Chen waved his hand, as if he really had something to hide.

Director Zhou had no choice.

There is nothing new to ask about, and the interview is almost over here.It was already one o'clock in the morning.

Judging from the content collected so far, although the quality is not average, it has failed to meet the expectations of Zhou Dao.Guan Chen has always had reservations, which is really regrettable.

If you put a title on it, most of the time, you can only make an article in the aspect of [Yunman University graduates have fallen to such a point] to attract audiences.

Director Zhou got up and strolled around in front of the bookcase. In addition to "Criminal Law", he was going to buy a few more books to go back to support.

"What is this?" Director Zhou suddenly saw a strange book.There is no title written on the spine of the book, only a big [1] is marked.

Take it out, and the cover reads [The first step to becoming an actor].

It's not a book, it's a notebook.Mix in a pile of books and pretend to be a book.It was so successful that it almost went unnoticed.

Zhou Dao took a few steps back, looked sharply through the bookcases, and quickly found the one marked with [2].Take it out, no accident, the cover reads [the second step to becoming an actor].According to the rules, there should be third, fourth, and fifth steps behind.

Director Zhou had a hunch that the reasons for giving up the performance that Guan Chen refused to say should all be in these notes.He wanted to open it to see, but his conscience was still intact, and he knew that it was immoral to open it at will to peek at other people's privacy without permission.

"Can you take a look at this?" Director Zhou asked.

Guan Chen was sorting out the newspapers he picked up today, and after hearing the question, he turned around and saw that Zhou Dao was holding a book in the bookcase, so he waved his hand indifferently: "Let's have a look."

Director Zhou and the young cameraman looked at each other, and the latter immediately opened the camera again.
