Start acting today

Chapter 228 Who is the special mentor?

"It's normal to not need a stand-in for this task. Wushuang can be considered an action scene, and as long as it's an action scene, this task is indispensable."

Huang Baiyou was also glad that the fourth task was to draw, not to learn how to fake.

But the reward for mission four is - counterfeit banknote imitation technology

"..."

"Actresses are becoming more and more punishing. Although having this knowledge is indeed very helpful for me to play Li Wen, it is not necessary."

After thinking about it, it’s not illegal to use it if you have the knowledge.

"But I have to join the group in May, and I have to participate in a recording program on April Fool's Day. I don't know if I will have enough time to learn to draw." Huang Baiyou ate French fries.

It’s time to enter the stage of controlling your diet. If nothing unexpected happens, you can no longer eat fried foods.

"Boss Huang, the College Student Film Festival invites you to be an award guest, will you go?" executive agent Caiyun asked.

"What award will be given?" Huang Baiyou asked

"Excellent actor." Chu Yuan said.

Huang Baiyou refused, "I'm not old yet. If the winner is an old artist, it would be a bit weird for me to award the award."

Chu Yuan thought about it. There was no benefit in going to present the award, but it would easily become a point of criticism for others. It was unnecessary.

"What about the judges of the Shanghai Film Festival?" Chu Yuan asked again.

Huang Baiyou agreed immediately. He had long wanted to know how the film festival jury worked, and now he had the chance.

Time flies by.

"Acting School" is sponsored by Xiong Bodai, and the guest lineup is also very good. First of all, Xiangjiang plays the most neurotic Lu Nanyu.

Next is Chang Shudi, who may be a little less famous, but she is an actress who has achieved outstanding results in awards and box office, and has won the Best Actress in Cairo and the Best Actress in Golden Rooster.

As for Deng Gangce, Huang Baiyou's acquaintance and an unfortunate old actor.

When Huang Baiyou saw the veteran actor on the guest list, he silently prayed for the show in his heart.

Just wait until this episode is aired before anything happens.

When Huang Baiyou came to Hengdian, Hengdian Film and Television City was still crowded with people.

"Brother Huang, Master Wuxin was filmed in Hengdian, right?" Wu Xiaoxiao asked.

"That's right, not only the first part but also the second part was filmed on Republic Street in Hengdian." Huang Baiyou responded.

"I have always had a question. Brother Huang, you can recite the lines in such a thick book like "Wushuang". Do you have any special skills?" Wu Xiaoxiao said, "I have been studying since I was a child and memorizing the text. difficulty, so I resolutely chose science.”

"There are skills, but the main thing is to spend a lot of time memorizing." Huang Baiyou answered.

It has been more than half a month since I got the script of "Wushuang". The current lines and analysis have been completed, which are Huang Baiyou's strengths. Learning oil painting is not that simple.

After waiting in the nanny's car for more than ten minutes, an elegant black fat man came over.

This person is director Xiong Bodai, the initiator of the show. This director is very controversial in the circle. The content of the controversy is plagiarism.

But it is undeniable that the scenes he filmed were really popular and made many celebrities famous.

Oh, the news pushed by the Weibo APP before, the little girl Li Xien who cried out that He Qiao affected her condition was made famous by Director Xiong.

"Brother Thirteen, thank you for your hard work." Xiong Bodai said.

Xiong Bodai also came with his assistant. His assistant was a thin man. What was strange was that the assistant could not outperform the fat director just now.

"It's such a hot day, it would be troublesome to ask Director Xiong to pick him up." Huang Baiyou said.

"People need to run more to gain weight, and they are quite flexible. I just don't know if jogging won't help me lose weight. I've been running for more than a year, but I still haven't lost weight." Xiong Bodai complained.

Outsiders mainly refer to Huang Baiyou as Teacher Huang, Brother Huang, Brother Thirteen or the boss (managing team). Those who call him Brother Thirteen usually have watched "The Thirteenth Son of South China Sea" and were impressed by the performances in it.

Everyone followed Director Xiong, while the thin assistant helped with their luggage.

He asked his life assistant Wu Xiaoxiao to put the luggage in the hotel room first, while Huang Baiyou followed Director Xiong to the hotel conference room.

When an artist reaches a certain position, he has requirements for food, clothing, housing and transportation. Huang Baiyou is relatively easy-going.

"Teacher Huang, your task is to lead a group of eliminated students and use half a month to shoot a short clip. This is the list of artists and this is the script." Xiong Bodai handed it to Huang Baiyou.

Looking at the list of artists, the four of them are idols, singers and actors. Some have even been male protagonists, but their acting skills...

This book contains the instructors’ evaluations of four artists. For example—

[Li Zouwen
Age: 25 years old

Representative works: "Flying Love with a Sword", "Ask the Mirror"...

Self-evaluation: Good at playing some cerebral roles.

Result: Eliminated in one game

Chang Shudi commented: She doesn’t know how to act, and she is very stubborn and does not follow the instructor’s advice.

Deng Gangce commented: She is a little girl with a strong sense of self. She hopes to take filming seriously.

Excerpts from audience comments: Invincible, crying is like being disfigured.If you don't read the subtitles, you won't know what the lines are saying. Your eyes are still glassy. It's a disaster performance. ]
Just the information sheets of these four artists made Huang Baiyou tremble, "Oh my god, what is this?"

"Brother Thirteen, don't worry. The audience knows the level of these eliminated players, so just rank them casually." Xiong Bodai explained, "Anyway, the main thing is that Brother Thirteen you don't praise them."

"I understand." Huang Baiyou nodded. To be honest, the last time he saw such an outrageous lineup was in "Seven Me".Huang Baiyou started to read fragments of the script, which were about 10 minutes long, so the script was very thin.

"Two weeks to shoot, there is plenty of time." Xiong Bodai said, "Brother Thirteen, don't be anxious."

"I'm used to reading the script first." Huang Baiyou didn't trigger the reward task, perhaps because the script was too short.

"Is this script adapted from the classic Hollywood movie "Twelve Angry Men"?" Huang Baiyou asked.

It is a classic movie that was shot in the 50s. The plot is very simple. 12 jurors discuss the case, and the verdict of the [-] jurors will determine the fate of a boy. It is a classic group drama.

Xiong Bodai praised, "You can tell at a glance that Brother Thirteen is awesome."

"This movie has been remade in many countries. It's a textbook-level movie with character transformations. Director Xiong, your praise is too strong." Huang Bai persuaded.

The pressure in my heart is also greater. A classic group portrait requires all the actors to have excellent acting skills... and the four people on this list cannot handle such a heavy role.

"Several other scripts are also adaptations of classic movie scenes, such as "My Fair Lady", "Golden World" and "Mandarin Duck Book". The tone of the program team is like this." Xiong Bodai said, "This is the case in China. I would rather give money to anyone. , and I don’t want to be a screenwriter, so I would like to persuade someone to become a screenwriter.”

Xiong Bodai suddenly became excited, which was a bit inconsistent with his label as a plagiarist on the Internet. Logically speaking, he himself plagiarized and shouldn't care so much about the screenwriter's treatment.

Huang Baiyou doesn’t know the details and won’t comment.

After talking about the serious business, let’s talk about something personal, “Brother Thirteen, can you give me an autograph? I have a friend who admires you very much.”

"No problem." Huang Baiyou took the notebook handed to him by Director Xiong, raised his eyes and asked, "What are you signing?"

"Sign [Congratulations to Li Xi'en for going further and further on the road of acting]." Xiong Bodai said, "Leave your name...for the ancestor."

"?" Huang Baiyou looked at Director Xiong.

"I don't know what this title is about. Xi En said Brother Thirteen, you will understand." Xiong Bodai said.

You see, it's a seesaw. Huang Baiyou didn't keep the ancestor, which was too embarrassing.

"Brother Thirteen will have a good rest tonight. I will meet these eliminated artists tomorrow." Xiong Bodai said, "I can't explain clearly, but I will know when we meet. They are not qualified to say that they are actors."

I forgot to mention that the hotel the program team opened for Huang Baiyou was the Presidential Suite of the China World Hotel, the best hotel in the area, which cost about [-] yuan a night.

"Acting School" is different from other acting programs. This program was recorded in Hengdian, and the entire process of the actors joining the set was filmed.

Deng Gangce, Lu Nanyu, and Chang Shudi are also in Hengdian. Huang Baiyou chose this program because of this competition format.

Huang Baiyou has no intention of changing his career to become a director, but experiencing being a director will also be beneficial to filming.

After the contact was over, Huang Baiyou returned to the room.

He looked at the artist list, a little disbelieving. He saw that the instructors' reviews were worse than the last. Is it really that bad?
[Congratulations on the road

Age: 26 years old

……

Lu Nanyu commented: I dare not perform, have weak self-confidence, and dare not communicate with others.

Deng Gangce commented: People who dare not open their "eyes" cannot be actors.

Excerpts from audience comments: Hahahaha, hahahaha This year is the source of happiness, it’s time for brothers to comment on the new four kings! ]
After searching the names of the four people on the list, Huang Baiyou decided that seeing is believing, and he wanted to watch the episodes they filmed.

two hours later...

Huang Baiyou covered his eyes and stood up. He wanted to apologize to the three instructors for being too loud just now.

It is true that none of the four can act, but together they have played important roles in more than [-] dramas.

The audience was really suffering. Huang Baiyou didn't want to be inferior, but compared with the four Li Zouwen, Cheng Guang was eye-catching.

"I finally know why Brother Cheng can remain standing." Huang Baiyou thought to himself.

The next day, early in the morning.

The members of the court drama team gathered in the conference room of the China World Hotel. The cameras of "The Acting School" have been set up, and the eliminated artists met with the special instructors.

The time notified by the program team was 10 o'clock, but Li Zouwen, who was the earliest, arrived at 09:30, and the other three also arrived around [-]:[-].

Li Zouwen is an independent thinker, and Wang Cube is an actor with facial paralysis.

The mouth grows big and eats children (Sha Wei), leaving no one on the road.

I don’t know if it was the netizen who made up the jingle, talking about the four people who were eliminated after the fourth episode of "The Acting School" was aired and then appeared in two target scenes.

"Who is the special mentor? Does anyone have any news?" Li Zouwen asked.

Sha Wei's mouth is really big, and he feels like he can swallow a child when he speaks, "Maybe he is an old actor like Teacher Deng Gangce. If it were Teacher Lou, we would make a lot of money."

"Teacher Lou has joined the team. Teacher Lou will not do anything else when filming, so you think the best." Wang Lifang said.

The discussion among the four people was mainly three people. Zhu Lu basically said "Yeah", "I think so too" and "Yes" over and over again.

Finally, Wang Lifang said coldly: "It's better not to have high hopes."

"Yes." Li Zouwen nodded. The four of them are the clowns in poker. What kind of powerful mentor do they expect?
"It would be good to have another episode of the show." Sha Wei said optimistically.

Zhu Lu didn't want to mess around in this episode, get scolded on the show, and get scolded again on the show again. Although he is introverted, he doesn't like to be scolded.

At nine fifty, Huang Baiyou opened the door. When everyone saw the true face of the special instructor, they all stood up.

　Because the original format of "The Actor" was boring, I wrote it for a long time according to that format. I didn't think it looked good, so I deleted and rewritten it, which wasted time.This competition system is different from Earth's, so don't be confused by Earthlings.
