Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 50
"Come, come," the on-site staff greeted the two, "take a group photo for you."

This was a normal thing, but for some reason, Zhang Yuanjun took a quick look at Liu's mother who was standing not far away.

She also seemed to think it was normal for the two of them to take a photo together, so she just smiled.

"Come on, you two stand closer, classmates, maybe you will act together in the future, how can you make a difference. Yes, look at the camera and smile."

Click!

The photographer showed the camera to Mother Liu, and said with a smile, "It's a good match, this is Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv."

Liu Xiaoli also smiled when she looked at the photo: "It's really pretty."

After a few more jokes, the staff in front came to urge the actors to enter the stage and prepare for the formal audition.

In order to alleviate the slightly awkward atmosphere just now, Zhang Yuanjun took the initiative to say, "Auntie please."

Liu Yifei smiled and said, "You are welcome later."

"Auntie please again."

"You can ask me again later."

The two chatted and laughed and went to the audition, leaving a group of staff and Liu's mother smiling wryly on the spot.

"Two live treasures." Mother Liu scolded with a smile.

On-site auditions are generally written dramas, and rarely action dramas.

The script assigned by Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei was the confrontation scene between Xiaolongnv after she was defiled by Zhen Zhibing, and Xiaolongnv mistakenly thought that Yang Guo was doing something to her, and Yang Guo and Ouyang Feng came back from learning martial arts.

Zhang Yuanjun was okay when he got this script, but Liu Yifei was in trouble. It's not that she hasn't thought about this scene before. It doesn't matter if she hasn't been in a relationship. She reads a lot of romance novels. If she hasn't eaten pork, she has seen pigs run away.

What she didn't understand was why Jin Yong wrote this paragraph and why he wanted Xiao Longnu to be tarnished.

Liu Yifei is a typical academic actor. When she gets a character, she has to sort out the logic of the character. Now she doesn't understand this fundamental thing, and what she performs can only be specious.

When she rehearsed this scene by herself, she basically learned the handling method of Li Ruotong in the 96 version.

During the rehearsal, Zhang Yuanjun saw Liu Yifei's difficulties and asked her, "What's wrong?"

Liu Yifei didn't want to ask Zhang Yuanjun for help, he is only 2 years older than himself, so he can understand what love is.

And today is Yang Guo's audition, so it doesn't matter if she acts well or not, but if Zhang Yuanjun's performance is delayed because of her asking for advice, then she will be guilty of a serious crime.

But this question has been held back for too long. She knows that Zhang Yuanjun is a fan of martial arts, and he has always had his own understanding of the script and the characters. This has been praised by the teacher for a long time, so she threw out the question that has puzzled her for several months: "You said, why did Jin Yong let Zhen Zhibing defile the little dragon girl?"

Zhang Yuanjun was not at all surprised that Liu Yifei raised this question. He already had an answer in his heart, so he patiently told her:
""The Legend of Condor Heroes" was originally called "The Heaven Is Missing", you know that."

"I know." Liu Yifei didn't do her homework for nothing, "Then why did you write the two of them as flawed? Wouldn't it be good for them to be together well? Even if you want to set up obstacles and tests for their love, wouldn't it be better to change it to something else?"

She also knows that love stories need twists and turns to keep readers engaged.

Zhang Yuanjun stamped the script and continued, "This is Jin Yong's brilliance.

""The Legend of Condor Heroes" is actually a love story dressed in a martial arts cloak, and the whole story is about how Yang Guo, the little dragon girl, overcomes difficulties and finally gets married.

"Okay, in order to achieve this goal, Jin Yong set three tests for the couple. Each test is as difficult as heaven. The first test is etiquette. They are master-student relationships. Now the master wants to marry the apprentice, and the apprentice wants to marry the master. This is not tolerated by the world. The examiners of this test are Guo Jing and Huang Rong. As Yang Guo's closest elders in the secular sense, they strongly oppose the combination of the two. When did Yang Guo pass this test? They will no longer kidnap two people as masters and apprentices.

"The second level is Zhen Zhibing's level, chastity. Not to mention in the Song Dynasty, even now, many people can't pass it, but Yang Guo is different from Xiaolongnu. Yang Guo doesn't abandon Xiaolongnu because of her infidelity, and Xiaolongnu doesn't feel inferior because of it. They still love each other, and even carelessly marry in places like Chongyang Palace.

"The third test is the test of life and death. This test was set by Guo Fu. People may not be afraid of etiquette and chastity, but no one is not afraid of death. However, after the 16-year appointment, Yang Guo still jumped off the cliff and chose to die for love.

"The love between master and apprentice is the test of the world; the broken arm and the loss of integrity are the test of each other.

"After passing these three hurdles, no one and nothing in the world can stop them from being together.

"And readers will be truly moved by their love when they see the two have such a difficult journey and finally achieve a positive result."

Zhang Yuanjun finally concluded: "If we put aside the martial arts filter and the protagonist filter to look at the two, you will find that the couple Yang Guo and Xiaolongnv are too real and ordinary. When they went to see Master Yideng for medical treatment, they were the most ordinary couple in the world-the wife was seriously ill and the husband was disabled.

"This is the meaning of Yang Guo's broken arm and Xiaolongnv's loss of integrity. Jin Yong wants to use this pair of crippled lovers to tell the world that love has nothing to do with ethics, chastity, or even life and death."

"So it's like this." Liu Yifei understood a little bit, "You don't have a girlfriend, how can you explain it so clearly?"

"I haven't eaten pork, haven't I seen a pig run?" Zhang Yuanjun laughed.

Liu Yifei smiled again: "Who knows if your explanation is correct, I guess Jin Yong didn't think so much when he wrote it."

"Maybe." Zhang Yuanjun did not deny this statement, "Do you know the theory of 'the author is dead'?"

"I don't know." Liu Yifei shook her head.

"You are wasting your literary theory class. 'The author is dead' means that after a work is completed, the author no longer has the full right to interpret the work, and readers should be allowed to make various interpretations of the work. Of course, the influence of the author's views and wishes on readers' interpretation of the work cannot be ignored.

"As actors, when we get a character in a work, we create it a second time, and we have to interpret our own meaning. Anyway, this is how I interpret the relationship between Yang and Long. It may not be correct, but it is always a perspective. I also use this perspective to create my Yang Guo Xiaolongnu."

Recalling Liu Yifei's understanding and treatment of Xiaolongnv, it seems that she is imitating Cheng Yulian and Li Ruotong in many places, and she has her own understanding, but most of the time she relies on this top-notch face to carry it down.

Of course it is good, she is the best little dragon girl.

After Zhang Yuanjun talked so much, there was not enough time for preparation.

"Nie Yuan is almost over, you are ready." The staff informed them.

Zhang and Liu stopped talking and started reading the script quickly.
