Acting school started in 1998

Chapter 373
Teacher Jiang lost his anger. When Li Tang worked very hard to help Teacher Jiang interpret the script, Teacher Jiang finally lost his anger after understanding it thoroughly.No wonder someone once said that the shortcut to love is that.

We are all adults, especially as an actor, Teacher Jiang can easily think about it.This is like two people competing for the role of the female lead. Someone gets the script before her, but she also has the opportunity to see the script, so the rest depends on who is more suitable for the role.

Of course, people always have emotions, especially when the person who got the script first shows off in front of you, you will definitely feel uncomfortable.

But when you pick up the script again and savor it carefully, you still really like this role and really want to play this female lead. Then you can only endure the humiliation and continue to compete.Unless you admit failure but still want to act, then the only possibility is to settle for the second female lead.

As for the script itself, the fact that it has been favored by so many outstanding actresses shows that it is a good script.It's just that when there are so many outstanding actresses competing and it's difficult to choose the heroine, the choice can only be made through auditions.

But auditions often don't happen overnight. During this process, the script also needs to be finely polished while working with these actresses.

As the saying goes: It’s never too late to eat well.In this case, the script needs more precipitation and polishing, or when it is difficult to choose, the script can be modified. For example, it does not have to be a single female protagonist, but it can be two female protagonists.If there are more outstanding actresses joining the competition during the audition process and it is difficult to choose, then it might not be a bad idea to simply set it as an ensemble drama with multiple female protagonists.

After meeting Teacher Jiang's physical and mental needs and helping her soothe her emotions, Li Tang came to Zhalang as scheduled the next afternoon and interacted with netizens to interpret the movie "Toward".

Netizens were very enthusiastic, and the live broadcast room with 500 people was instantly crowded. If the company had not arranged for more than a dozen people to enter the live broadcast room in advance, they would probably not be able to squeeze in.

Although online live broadcasts these days are still in the form of text, netizens are very enthusiastic in asking questions. In addition to movies, there are more gossip questions, such as asking if Li Tang and Fan Binbin are together?Some fans of Li Binbin asked if there was any possibility of the two getting back together.

Of course, these questions were skipped. What Li Tang needed to answer were questions related to the movie.People talk freely on the Internet, and some rhythmic remarks pop up from time to time:
"Li Tang and Xu Jinglei acted so well!"

"Wow, Gao Yuanyuan is so beautiful!"

"Teacher Fan Wei is so happy about the big fool!"

"Revealing the background of Ke Lan..."

Perhaps Chinese audiences have experienced reading comprehension training for a long time since elementary school, and they interpret the plot in a set way and analyze the characters in various ways.Through the characteristics of the characters, you can find living examples around you.Of course, some viewers also mentioned that the story of the movie is not too strong.

There is no way, this is a common problem with art films, there is always a sense of superiority, even Zhang Baibai, who prides himself on being very down-to-earth, is no exception. This is probably the so-called threshold for viewing art films.

However, these problems were quickly solved through the help of netizens hiding in the pre-prepared script, directing the attention of netizens to the actors' performances.

To be honest, the audience just watches the movie to watch the excitement, especially the actors' performances. When they see the kind of emotional explosion scenes, they often think "Wow, the acting skills are amazing!"

As a result, Li Tang began to popularize some basic knowledge of acting among netizens. For example, they believed that the "explosion of acting skills" in the explosive crying scene was an acting skill that students of the acting department can master in their second year.

While popularizing performance knowledge, he also compared some performance details in the movie, such as walking posture, some small movements included in the performance, and other small details that are easily overlooked by the audience, and they are often targeted.

With such an explanation, netizens felt a sense of enlightenment.In fact, this is called professional barriers. Breaking down barriers allows the audience to see what's inside. Only in this way can the audience's viewing experience be improved, instead of just watching the excitement.

This ingenious exchange actually aroused great interest among netizens, who asked Li Tang questions about their own understanding, and Li Tang tried his best to answer them.As a result, an hour and a half of interaction with netizens turned into more than an hour of acting lessons given by Li Tang.

Seeing that netizens were so enthusiastic, Zhalang staff were also surprised and planned to put the content of the interaction between Li Tang and netizens on the headlines of the entertainment section for full-text reporting.

……

Diao Yinan was very able to sit still. For more than an hour while Li Tang read the script, he sat there without saying a word. He occasionally picked up the cup and blew on the tea leaves floating on it to take a sip of tea. He was leisurely.

Li Tang read it very carefully, and the content after reading it was roughly the same as the story Diao Yinan told him last time.After all, he came from the Department of Chinese Opera and Literature. The writing is very smooth. It tells the story of a young man named Wang Xiaojian who, because of an accident, caused a small upheaval in his life. From then on, he lived a dual life of a tailor and a traffic policeman.

Although the plot setting is very reminiscent of Wang Zuolin's "Fake Phoenix", it is neither a fable nor a Gogol-style satire. It is an attempt to show a world driven by industrial decline and urban despair. A society surrounded by atmosphere.

This is actually easy to understand. Li Tang had this experience in his hometown.You say that farmers are hard at work, but at least they can grow their own food. They can grow vegetables, raise pigs, and chickens on their own land. If the environment is good, they can go fishing in the river and catch shrimps, and go to the fields to catch eels and loaches.

But it's different for people living in cities. Especially in this period of social transformation, all basic necessities, food, housing and transportation cost money.The wave of layoffs is coming, and incomes have dropped sharply. When you can't make ends meet, you will really feel a sense of despair that you can't survive.

What is rare is that the script does not deliberately sell suffering and bizarreness, and the lines exude simplicity and letting nature take its course.But when these things fall on the protagonist Wang Xiaojian, they give people a more complicated feeling.how to say?

Just like when you become a character, first of all, the pressure of life makes you anxious, and in the anxiety, you have nothing to do, so you have fantasy. Fantasy and reality will undoubtedly make you more painful, and it is precisely because of this pain that you are in fantasy again. Get spiritual sweetness, when you hope to get sweetness in reality, then there is only endless waiting.

Li Tang breathed a sigh of relief after reading the script and looked out the window. The weather was good today, the wind was sunny and sunny.It's just that autumn has arrived, and the lawn that was once full of green began to turn a little yellow, mixed in with the green, which inevitably gave people a sense of staleness.

Yes, this is the tone called "Uniform", like a realistic daydream.

When Li Tang raised his head, Diao Yinan looked over at the right time, expecting his evaluation of the script.

Li Tang was not in a hurry, picked up the cup, took a sip of tea, and said straight to the point: "Teacher Diao, how much investment do you need?"

"..."

Diao Yinan, who seemed calm, was obviously surprised. He didn't expect Li Tang to be so direct, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Li Tang smiled and said: "The script is very well written. I had a sense of the image when I just read it. It can be made into a movie. You also said before that you wanted to be a director yourself. I think it is very good. Our company can invest in it."

The characters in this script are very simple. They are the protagonist Wang Xiaojian and a female video store clerk who works part-time as a delinquent woman.The scene is also very simple, just a tailor shop, and most of the rest of the plot is about the protagonist pretending to be a policeman and roaming the streets.

The characters are simple, the scene is also simple, and the investment is not large.Li Tang could make the decision directly without even communicating with Zeng Jia.

"Uh, Teacher Li, this is a bit sudden. I haven't calculated it carefully yet." Diao Yinan stuttered.

When he was conceiving this script, he had chatted with Yu Liwei, and also established a line with Chief Jia through Yu Liwei.According to what they said, he was asked to shoot the movie first, and they could provide some help during the process, such as being a producer.If the quality of the film is really good, you can also help him promote it to overseas film festivals.

Of course, Section Chief Jia and Yu Liwei are not philanthropists. The so-called help does not mean investing money for you, but the premise is that you have to take pictures first and get their approval before they will help you recommend them.

But even this is already a great help. After all, many directors these days do not have this opportunity.

He had thought about this issue before when Li Tang asked to read the script, but compared to his overseas influence, Chief Jia must definitely surpass Li Tang.Perhaps with the recommendation of Chief Jia, we can enter a platform with a wider spread.

But before that, he had to shoot the movie. This was the biggest difficulty he faced. After all, he had no money.At this time, Li Tang expressed his willingness to invest, which solved his urgent need. And although Li Tang did not have as much influence as Chief Jia, he still had connections overseas. He single-handedly supported Cheng Er and helped Zhang Baibai. Going to Venice and showing off are all proof.

However, he still has this indecisive character. He had already made an agreement with Yu Liwei and Section Chief Jia before, but now he has to leave them and cooperate with Li Tang, which is a bit embarrassing.

He hesitated for a moment and said cowardly: "Teacher Li, thank you, but I...well, I still need to think about this matter. I'm really sorry."

Li Tang was a little disappointed, but he also knew Diao Yinan's uneasy character, so he said simply: "It doesn't matter. I'll give you a reply when you think about it later."

In fact, he was not worried about this matter. Diao Yinan had never suffered a loss before, and his thoughts might be a bit naive.But that doesn’t matter. What’s the hardest thing about making a movie?Money is just a word. No matter how talented you are, it’s useless if you don’t have money.

What's more, Diao Yinan's circle itself is not big. He is surrounded by Zhang Yang, Liu Fendou, Zhang Baibai, Meng Jinhui and others. Even if he doesn't figure it out for a while, those friends around him will help him figure it out.

……

"You're stupid! People are willing to invest in you. Do you know how rare such an opportunity is? You actually said that you should consider it. I don't understand. Don't you want to make a movie? Or should you? Could it be that you took the wrong medicine?"

After listening to Diao Yinan's stammering statement at the dinner table, Zhang Yang immediately took action.

　The first update, and more!
