Full-time actor

Chapter 389 [72] A set of famous martial arts moves!
Facts have proved that the Athens Olympic Organizing Committee in this life will not be any better than the previous one.

After two days of rehearsing day and night, Chen Yu finally took an hour's leave to take the Chinese language retest. On his way back, he received a call from Lao Mouzi.

What I arranged before is no longer possible.

"I'll tell you when you get there..."

Lao Mouzi sounded a little tired on the phone, even weak.

Even a person as energetic as him is in such a state. You can imagine how big a blow this time is.

"Brother Peng, drive quickly!"

As Chen Yu talked to Cheng Peng, he had no intention of participating in the final audition of the National Theater.

The final test is the last step of the Mandarin Actor Examination.

In this link, in addition to the review by the National Theater leadership, some famous drama directors, veteran artists and relevant experts will also be invited to conduct assessments to ensure that the selected talents meet the performance standards and requirements of the National Theater.

It generally includes live performances, oral examinations and interviews to comprehensively examine the candidates' artistic talents and comprehensive qualities.

The last thing is the announcement.

The prince in his previous life had a problem that was publicized. In fact, he was not the only one who had problems; something happened every few years.

It's just that his traffic was too high, and it became known to the entire Internet that many actors who were unqualified during the publicity period were actually directly eliminated by Guohua.

However, in the Yiyang Qianxi incident, Guohua indeed made a big mistake and has an unshirkable responsibility.

You can't open the back door like this.

Fortunately, the state stipulates that the final list of actor positions must be announced to the outside world for one month.

During this period, any problems may lead to failure in the actor position; regardless of whether you have passed the internal examination, if you have personal problems, it is very easy to explode during the publicity period.

This month is very critical. Guohua will receive supervision from the whole society.

This is the role of national publicity. Anyone can report a complaint. As long as it is true, once verified, it will never be accepted.

Chen Yu has certainly advanced in the re-examination. Before he goes to Athens next month, the final examination and announcement will be made at the end of the month.

But Chen Yu has no time to think about this now. Olympic rehearsals are the top priority.

The car sped along the streets of the Imperial Capital and arrived at the downstairs of the Olympic Building in 15 minutes. Chen Yu hurried upstairs, pushed open the rehearsal room, and saw Zhang Yimou and Shi Yande discussing there.

All the actors who were rehearsing also stopped there, whispering to each other.

"Coming?"

After Zhang Yimou saw Chen Yu, he immediately waved to him.

"Director Zhang, what's wrong?"

Chen Yu walked up to him without even changing into his costume.

I saw that he actually had a drawing board in his hand, with the words 7*7 clearly written on it.

"The stage given to us in Athens has changed!"

"???"

Chen Yu didn't quite understand: "The stage has changed, the place has changed?"

According to normal people's logic, this must be a change. At worst, it is equivalent to changing from the Bird's Nest to the Olympic Stadium. There must be a venue.

But Zhang Yimou shook his head and knocked on the drawing board in his hand: "The stage has not changed, the venue has changed!"

"It's gotten a lot smaller!"

"Originally it was an empty venue, so there was no need to worry about the area. Now Athens says there will be a raised stage for the closing ceremony, surrounded by athletes and spectators. We have to perform on the raised stage!"

"Just 7 meters by 7 meters, 49 square meters!"

When Zhang Yimou said this, he was afraid that Chen Yu would not understand, so he explained: "The closing ceremony will be held at the Athens Olympic Stadium, with a total area of ​​12 square meters. There will be almost more than 5 people at the scene!"

12 square meters, 49 square meters of performance space.

We must know that Chinese art and culture are inherently broad and profound. It is extremely unrealistic to use 8 minutes to show the charm of Chinese culture on such a small stage!
Although the camera will focus, you can actually imagine that when the camera zooms out, in this 49-square-meter space, no matter how beautiful the performance is, how petty it must be!

This is a natural bondage.

Just like a lotus in the pond, it looks beautiful, but when you stand upstairs and look at it, it's just like that.

The most intuitive comparison is the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. It doesn’t look big on TV, but it’s 16 meters by 15 meters. But it’s so big that some performances don’t look very grand.

Not to mention this one which is several times smaller.

This is the reason why the 8 minutes this time were scolded by the Chinese people.

The people watching on the scene didn't feel anything. They were all immersed in the excitement of the closing ceremony.

Foreigners are new to Chinese culture and think it's good. But for audiences who are used to watching Chinese programs, this kind of performance is not as good as a Spring Festival Gala program. What's so good about it?

Regardless of the venue restrictions or the organizers making things difficult, they just failed to do it well. This is the original sin.

The overwhelming abuse is as you can imagine.

"It's only 49 square meters, so our martial arts performances have to be reduced in terms of number of people!"

"I counted 15 people. It's too crowded. We can only accommodate 9 people at most. people should be the same!"

Zhang Yimou looked at Chen Yu and said with a wry smile: "Those difficult moves you have practiced in the past three days must be completely scrapped. In such a venue, difficult performances are too dangerous and cannot be performed. It is not I don't trust you!"

"Let's think about the plan again. This time it will be more difficult than three days ago. All programs must be adjusted!"

In the past, due to the limitations of the number of people and programs, Tang Yan and his group did not have many changes to their program; but now, with the shrinkage of the stage, all the previous rehearsals are equivalent to being canceled, so not only Chen Yu, but everyone's programs have to be rearranged. .

"..."

Chen Yu has been completely punished and has no temper.

Yes, think about this, and then think about the above, how much cowardice we have received from the outside these years.

The key is to be patient.

A small leak will sink a great ship.

"So, don't think about how brilliant the show can be. We try our best to export Chinese culture. If there are no mistakes, it will be regarded as a perfect completion of the task!"

Lao Mouzi obviously also knew that the current work was definitely not done by humans.

The other party doesn't want Chinese culture to be exported to the world at all, and they deliberately mess with you in such a disgusting way.

"Director Zhang, do you need to rearrange the movements again?" Chen Yu confirmed, and Zhang Yimou nodded: "Yeah, but it's not difficult, just polish it well and make no mistakes!"

"it is good!"

Chen Yu went to the dressing room and changed into costumes, while Zhang Yimou and Shi Yande began to discuss new actions.

Including the lead dancer, there are 8 backup dancers behind him.

They were having a heated discussion there, and Chen Yu came out without even coming up with a solid plan.

In fact, it was similar a few days ago. Lao Mouzi and Shi Yande discussed it late into the night before settling on a preliminary idea. It took them two days to rearrange the martial arts routines.

No, Chen Yu worked hard for 2 days and canceled it again.

This time, it's probably about the same.

"49 square meters, how can you be so good!"

"If there are fewer people, martial arts will look more monotonous..."

"The phalanx we designed before was so impressive for boxing, we will definitely no longer be able to use it!"

"..."

Several masters who rehearsed with Chen Yu every day were chattering and cursing. What Chen Yu heard the most these days was scolding the organizers of Athens.

Seeing Chen Yu coming over, he couldn't help but say: "Brother Yu is in the worst situation. That big sweep of 360 degrees between the sticks will definitely be impossible to arrange!"

This is one of several difficult moves that Shi Yande has designed for Chen Yu in the past four months. Everyone uses sticks to lift Chen Yu into the air, and then Chen Yu flips through the air and then falls into the crowd's stick array. , everyone held him up with all their strength, landed on the ground, and then performed stick skills uniformly.

Calculated based on 49 square meters, everyone has to hold long sticks in their hands, and they must be at least 3 meters apart from each other. Even 9 people cannot achieve this look at all.

Wow!

Chen Yu was wielding a stick there. Although the rehearsal programs these days were cancelled, he became more and more proficient in stick techniques, weapons, etc.

It has to be said that the stick technique has its own beauty in its wide opening and closing.

In fact, spears were better, but the organizers did not allow it. I guess they had seen the Eighteen Warrior Monks saving the King of Tang Dynasty, and felt that Chinese Kung Fu could defeat ten thousand people. They thought that if people like Chen Yu came on stage with spears, they would cause some kind of terrorist attack.

After all, this is the first Olympic Games after 911/5. It is said that Athens did not have enough security personnel. 45000 people were prepared, but only were used in the end.

The ticket sales were also very unsatisfactory, half of them were not sold.

You deserve to have your crotch pulled!
If you only mess around with your opponents and don't think about how to do a good job in the Olympics, you will definitely be an unjust person with few helpers.

However, Chen Yu still didn't want to be such a coward!

Although it was Lao Mouzi who was scolded afterwards, there were no famous people in this 8-minute performance in his previous life. The most famous person was his current lead dance teacher. In his previous life, he was the dancer Huang Doudou. In this life, he was replaced.

Huang Doudou is famous, but it is definitely not on the same level as Chen Yu right now.

If the performance was not good this time, Lao Mouzi would definitely be the first to take the shot, and Chen Yuna would definitely not be immune.

Fame is a double-edged sword. Who made you fail to perform well?
Lao Mouzi is not as good as a director, but you, Chen Yu, are not much better.

Chen Yu could almost imagine the nationwide scolding after the performance failed.

"But what can be performed in such a small space now?"

Chen Yu really couldn't remember any sensational martial arts performances in later generations——

"Eh?"

At this sudden moment, an idea seemed to flash in his mind; he remembered several martial arts moves.

Although I don’t know if he can be popular, he was very popular in his previous life.

"Ask Master Yande and Director Zhang if they can be used!"

Thinking of this, Chen Yu took a stick and walked directly in front of Zhang Yimou and Shi Yande who were arguing fiercely.

"Director Zhang, Master Yande, I have a set of movements that last about 2 minutes. Can you guys take a look?"

"Did you design it?"

Although Shi Yande was speaking to Chen Yu, he glanced at Zhang Yimou beside him. Zhang Yimou frowned and said, "Where did it come from?"

"I came up with it when I was bored while filming House of Flying Daggers!"

"After so many days of rehearsal, I designed a set of moves myself!"

Chen Yu had already thought about his words. Zhang Yimou glanced at Shi Yande and made some action plans. A man who looked like a leader narrowed his eyes and said, "Just take a rest. We have been discussing for a long time and have not come up with any results." , you might as well take a look..."

"Fine!"

Zhang Yimou actually didn't have much hope for Chen Yu. Shi Yande didn't say anything, but his eyes indicated that Chen Yu could start.

"drink!"

Chen Yu didn't say any nonsense at all, and directly made a set of Tai Chi gestures, followed by Baji, Xingyi... Anyway, Chen Yu had done all the famous domestic martial arts routines, and there was nothing new. Zhang Yimou and Shi Yande Several of them looked expressionless.

This action is not as good as what they designed!

"Come on stick!"

Chen Yu said to the masters who were surrounding him.

A master holding a long stick kicked his foot, and the stick in his hand suddenly flew straight towards Chen Yu like an arrow.

A straight line of a long stick was drawn in the air.

boom!
Chen Yu turned around and fished it out, and the stick was immediately in his hand.

Hurala!
He violently danced the Shaolin stick technique. When Zhang Yimou and Shi Yande had no reaction, the stick in Chen Yu's hand danced into a stick flower. When he lifted his hand, the stick danced and spun and flew into the air.

Swah——

Chen Yu stretched out his feet and hit the stick dance with a roundhouse kick. The stick flew in front of Chen Yu at a faster speed.

It's too late, it's faster than that!

Chen Yu stretched his hands forward, grabbed the flying stick in his hand, and took the stick with both hands to chop down.

Zheng!
He stood up suddenly and swung his long stick, his whole person's aura was extremely awe-inspiring.

"Ok?"

Shi Yande blinked, and his expression finally changed slightly; Zhang Yimou next to him also touched his chin, and the leader behind him suddenly shouted excitedly: "That move just now, that kick, do it again !”
