The whole entertainment circle thinks I'm confused

Chapter 158 Reading 4
It is not unreasonable for Zhuang He to set a one-month time limit for the reading of "Jinling Sacrifice".

Zhuang He is originally a director representative who belongs to the category of "picking hairs and keeping improving". The principle has always been that the faults can be pulled out before the official shooting, and the tacit understanding between the actors can be well-established during the one-month reading period, so it must not be left until the official shooting. .

This is also the basis for Zhuanghe to get to today step by step and win many honors.

Even in the first few years of his career, when the filming team and actors were relatively immature, he never let up, and has been making additions on a rigorous road!

From now on, the team he leads is not only the best in the industry, but also experienced. When rehearsing, even if there is something wrong, they don't talk about it in detail, basically they can see through it!
But these are more than a dozen students and more than a dozen newcomers, which almost makes people feel sad.

It took five days to complete the first round of rough sorting. Fortunately, these five days were very worthwhile!

Although for these rookie actors, it is tantamount to a devil's trial-getting up on time at six o'clock every morning, and then being able to see this scene.

Before the hotel's breakfast was arranged, a bunch of newcomers rushed in. Do you think these kids are hungry?They all get up early in the morning to check the lines!

To be able to act in a movie by a top director at this age is undoubtedly something to be proud of for a kid in his early twenties.Although this news cannot be announced, it is like a night walk in brocade clothes, but I am somewhat proud in my heart.

They usually compare each other's acting skills in class, and they all feel that their acting skills are not bad—otherwise, Zhuang He wouldn't be able to find them, right?
In the past three years, this sense of pride is comparable to that of Japanese TV drama students—who hasn’t swelled up.

Until the first day of reading.

The tall building I built collapsed.

Especially the young actors appointed to play "Meng Shujuan and Cardamom" participated in the reading with full confidence, but they were hit hard on the first day!

It's normal to be unable to catch the scene, but I was so nervous on the spot that I couldn't catch the lines. The lines that I had memorized a long time ago were forgotten during the line rehearsal.

Although Zhuang He didn't get a lot of scolding, but Zhuang He's dark face said it all!
Zhuang He Dangshi's original words were: "It's just the simplest rough rehearsal of the lines, and you can't get used to it. I can count on you for the rehearsal later? I gave you the script a long time ago. If you don't memorize it, it's all because of you." It's my own business, but I don't want this to happen again tomorrow, if you can't meet the standard, you pack up and leave as soon as possible!"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at these people again, crushing their last straw—"Don't put your mind on crooked ways, there is that time in the morning, thinking about makeup, and no time to review and memorize the script? It's ridiculous. !"

This slapped these newcomers hard. Although the scene was almost overwhelmed at the time, after the reading was over that day, according to the gossip from the drama staff, when these children returned to the room, there were more than one or two tears. .

But the effect is really good.

The children got up early the next morning.

Some girls who were very beauty-loving earlier even gave up early morning makeup.

Self-esteem is stimulated not lightly——

Even a big name like Xia Yu didn't "dress up" to attend, they were all without makeup, what are they being pretentious about! ?After tearing off this layer of self-righteous "fig leaf", these thirty rookie actors twisted into one rope, and their posture was by no means lighter than that of a [-]-day sprint for the college entrance examination!

During the day, I memorize my lines, and at night, I keep looking at film and television works, thinking about my acting skills.

In five days, these children made rapid progress. Not only did they not suffer from stage fright, but slowly, with the leadership of their seniors, they broke through themselves one after another, and they were able to take on plays on the basis of receiving lines!

Even if this "drama" is still extremely immature in the eyes of professionals——

In addition, originally girls are more delicate emotionally, and are rarely as careless as boys. For Xia Yu and other actors, they all want to get close to "learning from the scriptures", but they are also a little shy, worried about being rejected.

Until one morning, during the morning exercise of Xia Yu and Tao Zhang, after "several rounds of internal meetings", the new actors finally mustered up the courage to launch an offensive to "learn from the scriptures" to several professional actors.

The three foreign friends are helpless.

And Zhang Yunze, who had a serious face and said no one should enter, was not disturbed by anyone.

On the contrary, Xia Yu, who repeatedly put them under great pressure during the reading process in the past few days, became the "number one pursuit" target.

After thinking about it for two or three days, seven or eight or nine little girls stopped at the place where Xia Yuchen had to go to practice.

Xia Yu didn't know that in just a few days, these young actors' mentality had undergone a major transformation!

At first, because of his "competitive" heart, he repelled Xia Yu, who was about the same age.

You have to admit that sometimes it is really difficult to admit that a person is excellent and that a peer is excellent——

But after two or three days, they also began to ponder and analyze Xia Yu, the reason why this peer was able to be "so successful".

They didn't take time off, squeezed out time, and finished watching all of Xia Yu's TV and movie works.

At first I couldn't understand "The Painted Land Is a Prison". After reading it twice with some film critics and analysis posts, I finally understood it. In the last ten minutes or so, many people couldn't help but burst into tears.

Sometimes, from disliking to liking, it really feels like a short moment.

Waiting to see Xia Yu again, among these fledglings, most of the children who have not yet grown up, many of them have light in their eyes, and there is even a trace of something that they are not aware of, admiration!

Xia Yu was naturally willing to accept the demands of these young actors. If the movie is made well, she will be the biggest beneficiary.

In addition, it may be influenced by Chi Chong, she doesn't want to be stingy in helping newcomers.

Xia Yu first looked serious, and then looked at these children "viciously", and when the children were beating their hearts, he suddenly smiled, "Okay, from now on, sister's breakfast and sister's supper will be all for you Responsible!"

"Wow!" These little girls, who didn't dare to breathe before, breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed angrily, "Sister, you're going to scare us to death!"

And here, there is an episode.

In the first two years of secret training for the crew of "Jinling Sacrifice", Deng Yuetong, who played cardamom, and Zhao Xinhui, who played Meng Shujuan, were the focus of training by Zhuanghe's team. The lead actor, Zhao Yumo, did not expect to be picked up by Xia Yu - this is what Deng Yuetong said himself.

She was very unconvinced at first.

For this little girl who is quite talented and willing to work hard, Xia Yu only said this-"Maybe you are wrong, although you are the key training object, but before I get the script, you Even if they haven't been affirmed by Director Zhuang, it explains everything, even if it's not me, maybe there will be someone else."

This is what Tao Zhang said. Before Xia Yu decided to sign the film "Jinling Sacrifice", Zhuang and his team kept looking for actors suitable for the role of "Zhao Yumo" in various colleges and universities in Jinling, especially foreign language colleges. , kept auditioning until Xia Yu appeared.

Deng Yuetong is a good candidate, but he has not given Zhuang He the most satisfactory performance!
Finally she smiled freely and said:

"What's more, you don't know, I started to get in touch with this drama three years ago, but there was a little accident in the middle, and now I just put this slightly crooked track back on the right track."

Xia Yu talked with this little girl who was a year younger than her for half the night, and no one knew what they talked about, but the next day, Deng Yuetong, who had been quite alienated from Xia Yu before, became incredulous under everyone's incredulous eyes. He became Xia Yu's little follower.

In a week, the reading was on the right track.

The night of December [-]th.

Xia Yu took the flight to Shanghai—to participate in the spring and summer show and commercial shooting of Camus next year.
