This star is a bit cold

Chapter 166 Funeral ([-] in [-])

The only lessons humanity has learned from history is that no lessons have been learned from history.

Hegel once said this.

Of course, this is only a part of his grand thought, and similarly, many people have said the same thing, but, like morality, this kind of thing is just a decoration based on reality to a certain extent.

After all, idealists cannot rule the world. Even if some ideals are realized to a certain extent, they still have to compromise with reality.

As for the sentence at the beginning, it is probably not against the peace to describe the war.

From the beginning to the end, war has been a stubborn disease throughout human history. Even today, this shadow may not have dissipated.

The world is always full of all kinds of prejudice, hatred, injustice and discrimination. The people below want to climb up, and the people above want to be on the top forever. But looking up, how many so-called "normal people" are there? ?
Soldiers will rush to the battlefield for various reasons, and no matter at what time, there will always be people who believe those reasons and charge, but when they face the so-called war, they may find that everything is actually the same as they imagined. is not the same.

War is never an honorable thing.

The above are Elias's trivial ideas and the original intention of creating anti-war films.

Even though his anti-war film may be trivial in the face of some things, Elias is still willing to do it.

Making a movie hit belongs to life, but what meaning it can bring belongs to Elias' artistic pursuit.

Sometimes the two may not conflict.

Leaving these things aside, regarding his own movie, the historical period that Elias refers to is naturally the continent where their country is located. Basically, most of the large-scale wars in modern times have occurred there, and the crushing of flesh and blood Where has lasted for more than a century, and finally, under the influence of many factors, where has finally moved towards peace.

And speaking of the current casting, although the role of this supporting role is only an insignificant part of the film, it almost acts as an introduction, but, after all, it is an opportunity to appear on the big screen, and their investment in this film is not worth it. It's not small, so as soon as the news of the casting was released, it immediately attracted a lot of people to come for interviews.

However, it is still a Western film, and there are not many Chinese people in it. At the same time, they are sweeping Asia, and they really don't have much time to take care of their affairs, but it seems that it is because of this that it caused this There seem to be a lot of Chinese actors in the cast.

Some are shams, and some are young actors who really have acting skills but are not well-known.

However, face to face, Elias discovered that they really seemed to have encountered a problem.
"Elias! That's great! That actor just now is amazing! I'm sure, he's the one we're looking for!" The actor who had just been interviewed had just walked out, and an excited Kosi came over Said: "The emotional transition in the middle is so natural, and although it was played on the spot, I think the speech at the funeral is not bad, and he can also speak our language. I am a Chinese who can speak so fluently. I really haven’t seen many.”

Of course I also know that he played very well, but this role has already been booked in advance.
Elias nodded at his friend who forced a smile, "Indeed, let's put him on the focus list first."

As a gold medal partner, the personalities of the two are actually quite different. Strictly speaking, Elias is actually a director who can compromise and sometimes pays more attention to the overall interests, while Corsi pays more attention to movies. itself, so to some extent, the two also just complement each other.

"Elias, what I want to remind you is that although this beginning is not long, don't let the audience feel the poor acting skills of the actors at the beginning." It seems that I can see Elias's hesitation , the white man with blond hair and blue eyes solemnly reminded: "If it doesn't work, you can change the other party to another place."

"You're right." After thinking for a while, Elias finally nodded. "Let's go through this process first."

In fact, it's not really that the two of them have much malice towards the Chinese person who hasn't appeared yet, but, can a newcomer who has no experience and debuted as a singer really have acting skills?
Moreover, the two of them have of course met many people who entered the film crew through certain relationships, and they can only understand what kind of acting skills this kind of person will have.

By the way, the two of them generally do things like interviewing actors by themselves, even for some insignificant small roles.

And not a short time has passed since the interview began. When the staff including the two took a short break to discuss drinking water, two Chinese people with extremely stunning looks came in from the outside.

After being stunned for a moment, Elias hurriedly stood up, hurriedly stepped forward to greet and shake hands, "Miss Su, you are here."

Judging from some previous interactions, this Ms. Su seems to have quite a strong background in the entertainment industry in Huaxia. Faced with such a person, Elias will naturally not easily offend her.

In addition, if this Ms. Su is here, then the one next to her is an actor who is a singer who made her debut but wants to make a movie?
After shaking hands with Su Shibai, Elias' eyes couldn't help but fell on the slender Chinese man next to him. After just a few glances, Elias couldn't help but praise: " This is Mr. Ye, right? Hello, your appearance and temperament are the most outstanding Chinese people I have ever seen, and it is an honor to meet you."

"Hello." Ye Che, who rarely heard such explicit praise, was taken aback for a moment, then shook hands with the middle-aged white man and said, "It's an honor to meet you, too."

Regarding foreigners, Ye Che has not seen many foreigners since he came to this world. He even said that there are some areas where foreigners gather in this city, and all of them are very neutralized. Many times, Ye Che would even be surprised when he saw them. Think about who is the real Chinese
But this foreigner should be a serious foreigner, right?
In addition, although this person seems to be quite enthusiastic, the other person sitting there seems to be very cold?

After greeting the other party, Ye Che glanced around and quickly noticed some subtleties.

However, this has nothing to do with him, the only thing he needs to do is to perfectly interpret that insignificant little role.

After the greeting, the interviewees had already started a discussion, as if they were thinking about which segment should this Chinese person try.

"Go, don't be nervous, I'll give you the bottom line!" Su Shibai, who was standing next to Ye Che, said quietly after the people in front of him had basically finished their discussions: "It was all agreed before, if they dare to play me , I’ll have someone cancel their project!”

People just want to interview actors in general
Looking at Su Shibai who seemed to have entered the fighting state in advance, Ye Che shook his head helplessly, said "Don't worry", and walked to the center of the room under the direction of the interviewers.

"Mr. Ye, you should have read the script of the character you want to try?" Elias, who was sitting in the middle, asked.

"I've seen it." Ye Che nodded.

Although the script was a bit poor, the role of this character is indeed small. Ye Che, whose acting skills have not regressed too much after a whole morning of thinking about it, can naturally grasp it.

"Before the interview starts, I want to declare that although this character doesn't have many roles, it is indeed placed at the front as an introduction. That is to say, he is actually very important to the whole movie." Clicked Nodding, Elias, who seemed to have finally shown his aura as a director, asked, "Then Mr. Ye, can you speak English?"

"Yes." As soon as Elias said the words, Ye Che, who immediately switched to English, replied: "If you need to use English throughout the filming, then I can do it."

Very authentic London accent, how can a Chinese speak so authentically?
Elias and Kosi looked at each other quite unexpectedly, then nodded slightly.

Facing the apparently surprised reactions of the two of them, Ye Che was calm in his heart. Although English is definitely not the mainstream in China in this world, Ye Che is a student who has experienced the baptism of the college entrance examination in his previous life. In addition, I deliberately studied it later, so there must be some English proficiency.

"Since you have read the script, you must have understood what kind of character you are going to play." Looking at Su Shibai, who seemed a little confused, and Elias, who was still very discerning He resumed the Chinese and continued: "His life, in a simple summary, is actually like that, but I hope you can understand the more detailed parts, so now, please show me the state of doing nothing for me. ?”

By the way, although Su Shibai did graduate from a famous university, she really doesn't know much about English. At most, she can only cope with the test paper with a score of [-]?
"Okay." After Ye Che responded, Su Shibai soon saw a Ye Che who was completely different from her impression.

Although he just stood no longer so upright, his eyelids drooped a little, and the micro-expression on his face changed a little, but for some reason, Ye Che's impression suddenly changed dramatically.

If I had to say it, would I immediately feel that this person is not serious?
"Ha~" Ye Che covered his mouth and yawned. Ye Che, who was walking in a frivolous way, took two steps forward casually. Su Shibai only felt that he couldn't see it in those eyes. Anything that makes people look forward to, or in other words, the other party's suddenness will make you feel uncomfortable.

"Oh, Li, where did you go last night? I seldom see you in the early morning. Could it be that you haven't slept all night?" His eyes lit up suddenly, and soon Elias, who was sitting there, read Played the lines in the script.

"Ah~" He yawned again, and the tiredness revealed by that listless look could even permeate others. Attracting the favor of the Muse, well, let’s not talk about it, I’ll go back first.”

hiss!
This kid can do it!

Seeing Ye Che's performance, Su Shibai couldn't help nodding.

After seeing it, Su Shibai might understand what his little cousin said about his acting skills.

Generally speaking, it is not difficult to play a character who is similar to yourself, but it is the real technical work to play someone who is completely different from yourself.

Looking at him like this, he seems to be no different from those vulgar men who come out of nightclubs after a night of fun.

Of course, this is under the premise of ignoring his appearance.

It seems that that kind of decadent makeup must be painted on him a bit heavier, otherwise, such an appearance will affect the perception of this character too much.

Taking a pen to write down this point, it was true that Elias, who was surprised by Ye Che's acting skills, said excitedly: "Okay, that's fine, Mr. Ye is really great! It's hard to imagine that you didn't come from a major. This feeling of relaxation is quite accurate."

How can a person who relies on relationships have such acting skills?

This is what Elias really thinks now.

"I think this part is okay, how about you?" Elias, who was basically satisfied in his heart, turned his attention to his friend.

"It's not bad, but I think the part at the funeral is the key." Although I do have a preconceived impression of Ye Che, at this moment, I really can't deny the Chinese man's performance just now, Kossi said softly: " Let him try that part again."

"Alright." Nodding his head, Elias soon looked at Ye Che who had returned to his original appearance and said, "Then Mr. Ye, can you please perform the funeral scene for us next?" That part? It could be a line from a script, of course, if you want to improvise.”

"Okay." Ye Che closed his eyes slightly after listening to the director's words, and began to search for that subtle state.

This young man with only one word 'Li' in the movie is really not complicated, he has received a fairly good education, has a bit of bad poetic talent, and is proud of it, but in fact, apart from himself Everyone else knows that he is a poor third-rate poet.

And among these people, only the girl next door who he grew up with can sincerely praise his poetry, although it is not worthy of praise.

And it is hard to imagine that such a young man who has nothing to do and lives all day long on the family property left by his ancestors will have any opinions on things like war.

So what's more, in the design of the script, he was actually fighting for the girl in his mind. This was an extremely absurd idea, and a person like him fell into the war as a matter of course.

Sometimes, revenge is indeed a burning fire in people's hearts that is extremely difficult to extinguish. However, in this man who lived an empty life and harbored empty thoughts but chose the most realistic reality in the end, there seemed to be hidden dangers. With an indescribable sadness.

A pathos that is at war with the whole world of nothingness.

And all the strong emotions of his whole life probably agitated at the funeral of this ordinary girl who died silently and had no relatives.

　Although I want to finish this paragraph in one breath, but the time is a bit too late (crying)
　　And wait for me to think about it carefully.
