Director: Female stars want to improve too much

Chapter 8 Let the Chinese drama know that it’s a joke
  Beidian Arts Test can play background music, especially for the recitation project. A good piece of background music can greatly increase the sense of immersion.

Sometimes, just hearing the music can give people goosebumps, not to mention the poetry that illuminates the past and present.

Xing Baizhou did not choose from existing music, but based on the memory of his previous life, he invited an erhu master and a suona artist in Wuxi to perform a piece of "Water Dragon Song" together.

Wuxi is the former residence of the famous folk music master "A Bing". He was very good at playing the erhu, and "The Moon Reflects on Two Springs" is his immortal classic.

While he was in Wuxi Water Margin Film and Television City, he found a master of erhu and suona near A Bing's former residence and asked them to record a piece based on the simplified score he had written.

Unexpectedly, the effect was very good. Although it was not as exciting as the erhu, guqin, flute and other musical instruments in the previous "National Treasure" program, it was still soul-stirring enough.

He came today with this background music. When he entered the examination waiting room just now, he had already given the tape to the on-site conductor.

at this time.

As the examiner spoke, the soul-stirring sound of "Water Dragon's Song" sounded, waking up the bewildered examiners.

"This music..."

"Never heard of it, but it sounds good."

"This candidate is also in good shape and has great temperament."

There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the five examiners, because so far, Xing Baizhou's performance was the best today.

The examiner sitting in the middle is Director Liu of the Nortel Performance Department. As the head of the performance department, he naturally hopes that the students will be talented in large numbers.

Xing Baizhou exceeded his expectations both in body and demeanor. At this time, he wanted to see where this kid's true strength lay.

The moment before he was about to speak, Xing Baizhou saw that three of the five examiners were staring at him with their hands clasped on their chins.

Years of experience in the entertainment industry told him that this was a performance that examiners were more interested in.

Seeing this, he calmed down a lot. At least for now, he satisfied the examiner.

So he closed his eyes and took a deep breath, recalling the bumpy situations in his previous life. The moment he opened his eyes, he read out a poem that symbolized unwillingness, helplessness and relief:
  "Will (qiāng) enter the wine, Tang, Li Bai!"

His reciting voice is medium-high, which is higher than his daily speech. It is smooth without losing momentum and is very infectious.

This is the most suitable tone for reciting.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted everyone including the examiners, scorekeepers and facilitators.

"Don't you see, the water of the Yellow River comes from the sky, and it runs to the sea and never returns."

"You can't see, Gaotang Mingjing is sad and white hair, the morning is like blue silk and the evening turns into snow."

After reading the first two sentences aloud, the examiner already had his own judgment in mind, and the female teacher next to the examiner kept nodding.

"You must be happy in life, and don't let the golden bottle face the moon."

"I was born to be useful, and I will come back after the money is gone."

"..."

The two-minute recitation is completed.

The people present were still immersed in the artistic conception of Li Bai's poetry.

Of course, Xing Baizhou's contribution is included in this, but it is also inseparable from the blessing of the background music of "Water Dragon Song".

Examiner Director Liu: "To tell you the truth, your recitation is one of the best I have heard this year... Don't be nervous, prepare yourself and start the next session."

Director Liu is a person who values ​​talents very much and unconsciously spoke a few more words.

Xing Baizhou thanked him.

Walking not far away, he picked up his long sword, took off the packaging, and held the sword in his hand with a sword flower.

See this.

The examiners smiled knowingly.

The female teacher turned to another male examiner from the National Theater and said: "If this student has no problem with the cultural class, he must be a student of our Nortel."

The results were as expected.

When Xing Baizhou performed that set of swordsmanship, the examiners gave him high marks. He looked like a swordsman in a martial arts movie when he moved around.

"Haha, you take a rest first."

Director Liu said with a smile: "I won't hide it anymore. Let me tell you everything first. You will have no problem passing the reexamination."

what……

This is against the rules! ? After taking the art exam for so many years, how can you tell candidates on the spot that you have passed? This director is too irritable.

A man in his fifties...

Why aren't you as stable as a young guy?

After hearing what he said, Xing Baizhou suppressed a smile in his heart, looked at him and bowed his thanks: "Thank you, examiner."

The four examiners on both sides of Director Liu were a little surprised to see him like this for the first time.

No matter how capable and outstanding this young man is, you won't be like this, right? If the opposite actor knew about it, it would be a joke! !

But Director Liu doesn't care about this. As the head of the Performance Department, he must consider the future development of the department.

Whether the acting department is good or not depends on how many stars it produces. For example, why is Nortel's directing department famous?
  It’s because there are so many great directors.

Gao Xixi, Guan Hu, Chen Shishi, Zhang Li, Wang Xiaosu and Lou Ye all came from the directing department.

It can be said that half of the people in the film industry come from Nortel's directing department, which makes the director of the directing department have a higher status than the acting department.

He was very upset.

But so what if you’re unhappy?

Has any actor ever been a director? Even though the acting department has produced many big stars, they are still restricted by the director in the industry.

But failing to do so does not mean that you have to lie down. This is where Director Liu's unwillingness to admit defeat comes from.

He didn't believe that he couldn't bring out a superstar, so he was extremely excited and kind every time he saw a good talent.

But this time, it was unusually cordial.

"Xiao Xing, um... have you taken the exam for the Chinese opera opposite?" Director Liu finally asked what he wanted to ask.

Xing Baizhou never expected...

He turned out to be the guest! ?

The one who is nervous now is not him, but the examiner opposite, especially the Mediterranean in the middle... His hands are clasped together nervously.

Everyone else in the room looked at the usually steady Director Liu in surprise, thinking: Director, what's wrong with you? This isn't like you!

at this time.

The video recorder in the room is still recording. If this precious video is spread out in the future, a large number of people will definitely be happy.

Xing Baizhou looked at Director Liu's slightly longing eyes, shook his head and said, "I didn't go to the Central Theater, I just came here to take the exam."

"Clap clap..."

Director Liu suddenly clapped with relief.

"Okay, very good. Talents like you have to come to Nortel so that they can have greater room for development... China Theater is not allowed to do this or that, it's too restrictive."

This is true.

The management of Chinese opera is relatively strict.

Freshmen and sophomores are strictly prohibited from taking roles. Mei Ting dropped out of school because she wanted to film "Red Lover" with Leslie Cheung.

Nortel is relatively more relaxed.

Although there are rules against filming, as long as you can pass the final exam, the teacher will turn a blind eye.

Director Liu used this to tempt himself?

Really attractive.

He couldn't waste two years studying peacefully, so Nortel was Xing Baizhou's first choice.

"Thank you teacher for your appreciation!"

He also changed his title to the examiners to teacher, which would make him more approachable and leave a good impression on them.

Although it is a small thing, doing it well can really make people feel a lot more comfortable. I suffered too many losses when I first joined the circle in my previous life. These are all valuable experiences bought through losses.

Several examiners nodded with satisfaction.

The female teacher next to Director Liu suddenly remembered something and asked, "Are you the Xing Baizhou who played "The Swordsman"?"
