Entertainment from Charlotte's Troubles

Chapter 85
Less than half a month after Yuan Hua returned to Shanghai, he was called to a meeting with the crew of I am a special soldier.

It took less than half a month from getting the script to the crew meeting, and it was impossible to start the film. The director and producer called him over mainly for military experience.

In the conference room, seven or eight leading actors were all present.

Looking around, it was almost the same as the original team of I am a special forces in Yuan Hua's memory.

The burly high school team, with tough facial features, firm eyes, and tall stature, looks like a tough guy.

It is said that this buddy once walked the catwalk and served as the bodyguard of Zheng Yijian and Liu Huan. Among the actors present, he is the closest to the image of a soldier.

It's a coincidence that Yuan Hua has seen his play, but it was in his previous life.

Snowflake Goddess Longzhong has instant noodle hair, the heroine loves him to death, and turns a blind eye to the handsome second male lead, Ouyang Mingyue. After the show was broadcast, many girls complained about Qiao Zhenyu who played Ouyang Mingyue.

"Brother Ren, hello, I'm actor Yuan Hua, please give me your advice."

The two were close to each other, and Yuan Hua took the initiative to say hello.

"Hello, hello." The actor playing the high school team shook hands with Yuan Hua, knowing that Yuan Hua was being polite, and he didn't take the advice seriously.

Although he had been brilliant before, it was all in the past, and now he can only be used as a supporting role for young people to make a living.

"Brother Xu, hello..."

Yuan Hua said hello one by one. He has already got the cast list and knows all the actors present.

Although they are not well-known, they are all old people who have debuted for many years. Their acting skills are much better than that of newcomers. The only disadvantage may be that they are too old.

The average age is 27.

However, considering that everyone will be in their 30s, it would be impossible for young people in their early twenties to act.

In performing this thing, character fit is very important. What is fit, apart from appearance and height, it is mainly age.

No matter how good the acting skills are, they can't play characters who are too much younger than themselves.

In the previous life Daqin Fu, the male protagonist is a middle-aged uncle in his 40s, playing the role of 12-year-old Ying Zheng, who has been scolded to the extreme by the audience for his beauty.

There is also actress Zhang Ziyi, 39 years old playing a 15-year-old girl, actress Liu Xiaoqing, 60 years old playing a 16-year-old princess... These people's acting skills are not bad, but the age difference is really eye-catching.

If it is only an image problem to use the big to play the small, it is even more problematic to use the small to play the big.

Other things can be played, but the mentality cannot be played. For a teenager, if you ask him to think about the mentality of a middle-aged man, he has never experienced it, so he can't imagine it at all.

I am an actor of the Special Forces crew, and my age is 27. If you are a little younger, it is not difficult to act in your early twenties. If you are a little older, you can act in your 30s.

Here, age has become everyone's advantage.

After some pleasantries, everyone got to know each other, and the director said, "I called you here before the machine was turned on, so I'm sorry first."

"Presumably you all know what role you are playing. If you want to play a soldier, you have to look like a soldier. I don't want to be pointed out by the audience after the TV series is broadcast, saying that the actor is not like a soldier. I don't think you want to either."

"The crew is already in preparation, and the start time will be about one and a half months later. Before the start, I want you to go to the company to experience it, to feel the life of a soldier, and to be more involved in the show when acting."

"After entering the army, you eat, drink, sleep with the recruits every day, and of course, train together."

When the contract was signed, everyone knew that there would be a role to experience this level, and they had a certain amount of mental preparation. Now they heard that it was a month and a half of company life, and they were still appalled.

As a rookie actor who has just left school, he must be very happy, and he feels that it is nothing to worry about going to the company.

But everyone is an old fritter, and they know how hard it is for the next company, and they eat, live and train together, not just talking.

One and a half months, let alone delamination.

The director is a bit fat, with a crew cut, and he smiled kindly. At this time, he comforted everyone and said, "The students who are training with you are all eighteen or nineteen-year-old students. A group of children can endure hardships. Don't tell me that I can't do it?"

"If anyone can't do it, you can say it right away. I won't pursue liquidated damages. Everyone can talk about it and break up."

As the leading actor, it's time for Yuan Hua to make a statement. Others can back down, but he can't. More than anyone else, he hopes that everyone can do their best to play the leading role in the first film.

No matter how good the actor is, if the opponent pulls his hips, the whole show will not look good.

"Director Liu is serious. We are too happy to have the opportunity to experience the company. Boys, who hasn't dreamed of being a soldier? Can you touch a gun when you go there?"

"Of course." The director liked Yuan Hua's attitude very much: "We have a lot of gun battles in this movie. For this reason, I specially invited a few special forces to be consultants. They will go to the company with you and teach everyone how to fight. gun pose."

This film has military investment, training venues, lower companies, and special forces, all of which are arranged there, otherwise he can't move it as a director.

"There are also special forces. It's a good relationship. I'm worried that I won't be able to act like special forces. We ordinary people have never seen special forces, so we have no chance to refer to them."

"Yes, with the help of real special forces to guide you, you will act more like soldiers..."

Yuan Hua and the director sang together and chattered a lot. Before anyone else had time to say anything, they were dragged by the makeup artist to push their hair in a daze.

When they came out of the dressing room, all of them had cropped hair, they looked at each other and made fun of each other.

In the evening, Yuan Hua invited everyone to dinner and drank two cases of beer.

The next day, everyone boarded the bus and went to the army.

……

"gather!"

"Stand at attention, take a break, and stand in military posture for an hour!"

In the early morning, when the sun shines from the sky, a team of 50 people has assembled. The people standing in the front are all young faces with unfading fluff, and Yuan Hua and others are in the last row.

"Who hasn't folded the quilt properly! Pick it up after training! Tomorrow, I'm going to run five kilometers by myself like this!"

In the dormitory building not far away, the squad leader roared, and then a dark green quilt was thrown down from the third floor.

This was not over yet, a few seconds later, a basin of water was poured down.

Next to Yuan Hua, Qiangzi closed his eyes in pain, and the few of them held back their laughter.

"Everyone has it, turn left, turn right, start running!"

"Everyone has it, let's go together!"

"Look to the right, stand at attention! Straddle!"

The days of the recruit company were very boring, standing in a military posture, running, and occasionally practicing military boxing. In the blink of an eye, seven or eight days passed, and the skin of everyone who was exposed to the sun every day turned darker by more than one number.

On the third day, everyone was sun-peeled, and they didn't look like stars at all.

Sitting, standing and walking looks good, with a little more military style.

On the tenth day of the recruit company, the few people who have just gotten used to life have an extra task every day, practicing gun posture.

In order to satisfy them, the special forces came and the instructor gave each of them the dream of shooting a hundred bullets at the end of the training.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

A month and a half later, with the sound of gunfire, everyone left the army.

When they left, they said that they would not come back if they were beaten to death.

On the second day after leaving the army, they got up before dawn, and each of them didn't know what to do. In the end, Yuan Hua took them for a few kilometers to feel comfortable.
