Chapter Five Hundred and Thirteen The Interview Begins
Soon, the voting ended, and the roles suitable for the four teachers' scripts were finalized. The ballot boxes were taken away by the staff and taken to the side to divide the accounts. The colleges selected the most by the four teachers and the students who were unsuccessful.
Up to this point, the four of them had not communicated much, and they were all somewhat silent. They sat in front of a single transparent glass wall and stared at the childish and a little green children on the first floor.
Soon, Liu Xiang, the program director, walked into the venue, stood on the highest step, held a thick stack of paper, clapped his hands gently to attract the attention of all the students, spoke softly, with a smile on his face, and
Nod to these students.
"Thank you all students for coming. On behalf of all the staff of the "Actor" program team, I would like to extend a warm welcome to all students."
After a round of applause, Liu Xiang continued to describe the next process. He spoke very quickly and was different from teachers in schools in that their speeches were not as long. This was also related to the future of the students. Naturally, all the students were listening carefully. Rarely.
Until the following rules were explained clearly, all the students' faces became tense and there was no smile at all.
"I will start reading from the 1st. The students whose names are read will come forward to collect their interview tickets and prepare their own interview performances. As for the students who did not get the offer, I am sorry that you will enter the pending area.
No., Zhang Xiaoyuan..."
Since he was the first student to be announced, Director Liu deliberately stretched his body when announcing the results. The old variety show worked. The girl whose name was called was short and sweet-looking. She had her hands behind her back, straightened her body, and listened carefully.
Director's "Trial".
"Congratulations, Teacher Tang Juan has chosen you. Go ahead and get your tickets."
Amid everyone's admiration, the girl's feet were a little shaky. After bowing deeply to Director Liu, she quickly ran to the ticket window and received a square card with the LOGO of Aviator APP and Huaxia Travel Customization Network printed on it.
There is a QR code, which you will scan to enter when waiting for the interview.
The camera also showed a close-up, and it is estimated that one will be added when it is officially broadcast, thanking the Aviator APP for its strong support of this program, high-end customization of national travel, Aviator, go wherever you want, etc. The narration of the advertising slogan,
This blunt advertisement has long been powerless and makes people unable to complain. After all, it is the sponsor dad. As long as the money is large, it is not impossible to insert a variety show in the advertisement.
However, the girl who got the ticket didn't care so much. Instead, she showed off to the camera. As long as she was selected and not eliminated, it was a good thing. She was willing to have 180 logos printed on her body.
Director Liu continued to read, and Lu Ze and others were not idle. They picked up a pen and made a manual card recorder to record who the opponent chose. If several instructors really like the same person, there will be records.
It's better to strike first and gain the upper hand.
Next, there were students who were selected by many teachers, and naturally there were also students who were unsuccessful. Several students who were announced as unsuccessful by Director Liu were standing in the waiting area, their eyes dull, facing the camera, as if someone was using a knife to stab them in their place.
He cut out the wound that was bleeding profusely, trying to keep a smile, but the corners of his mouth were trembling, and he couldn't keep the smile at all. Most of them could only turn their backs and quietly wipe away the tears that had just left.
Every actor will have the experience of being sad after losing an audition, but rarely do they make it public so ruthlessly. The sadness is their own sadness. If others see them sad, it will become their embarrassment.
The four of them couldn't bear it, and just wanted to remind them, but they found that Director Liu was already standing beside them and apologizing to them. This was the program team's dereliction of duty. The original intention was to show the plight of the actor industry and express a feeling that it is not you who is the actor, but the script.
I will definitely choose your attitude, but the staff of these directing teams have never been actors. When designing the scenes, it is difficult to put themselves in the shoes of these students who come to the imperial capital from all over the country. Fortunately, Director Liu
The prompt stop prevented this segment from being offensive to the audience after it was broadcast.
It also allowed the frost that had just hung on the faces of the four teachers to thaw quietly, and the possible turmoil within the program group would disappear.
The unsuccessful students will be arranged to go to another theater, where they will digest the bitter consequences of this unsatisfactory start with other dissatisfied students, while those students who are selected will begin to prepare their own performances and face the upcoming
The unfolding face-to-face session with the tutor.
"Teachers, please move to your respective examination rooms, please come this way."
The staff invited them, and the four of them followed the arrangements. After coming out of the stadium, they got into their cars and headed to the teaching building. After greeting a familiar teacher from the Imperial Capital Theater Academy, they settled into the examination room.
The interview room is not big, far from the size of the art exam room. It is a conference room that has been completely emptied, leaving only a single office chair with a tea set placed on it. The camera is set up and there is a photographer inside.
The teacher didn't stay. Lu Ze looked up his watch and looked at the time. The exam started in fifteen minutes.
I took the opportunity to go to the bathroom, the school public toilet. The sound of leather shoes frightened the student who secretly smoked in the toilet. He thought he was going to be caught. He opened the toilet door carefully and saw Lu Ze. His face turned green. He might as well have been caught by the teacher or
The student union was really taken aback. After apologizing profusely, they didn't even pull up the crotch of their pants, so they grabbed their pants and ran out.
Of course, it was impossible for Lu Ze to complain. After washing his hands, he returned to the examination room with a smile, opened several bottles of tea cans placed on the desk, looked at them one by one, and chose cooked Pu.
After recovering from my stomach trouble and boiling water, I informed the first candidate that he could come in.
…
"Hello, is this Teacher Lu Ze's examination room?"
The tall beauty walked to the door and asked the staff next to her softly. After getting a response, she thought about it and put the luxury bag she was carrying on the window sill in the corridor. She fixed her hair in front of the glass and cleared her throat.
Finally, he knocked on the door and walked in.
After she closed the door, the staff member who recognized her whispered to each other: "Isn't this Zhou Shiyu? She should be able to pass."
"She...who knows."
Talkative people will always ask others for their guesses, but most people who have self-control will still control their mouths. After all, the person who just entered... is not an amateur, but a serious star.
…
"Zhou Shiyu is a child star, right?"
"Yes, teacher."
The old tea must be washed more. This is the second time. After pouring out the tea soup in the pot, Lu Ze picked up the student resume that he had prepared and compared it with the beautiful woman standing in front of him.
.
The girl in front of him is twenty years old this year, but she has been in the industry for a long time. She has almost caught up with Lu Ze. For more than ten years, Lu Ze has not calculated carefully. When he looks at real people, he does not know how to put his hands behind his back like ordinary people.
Or put your palms stiffly on the trouser line. The palms fit naturally on the lower abdomen. The posture is also very particular. It is obvious that she has received professional body training. The two thighs are straight and there is not much curvature in the calf. She must also have received dance training.
.
"Perform what?"
"The last scene of the drama "Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land"."
Just after taking a sip of tea, Lu Ze's frowned eyebrows were blocked by his palms and tea cup. When he put down the tea cup, his brows relaxed, as if his expression had never changed.
This is a smart decision with strong pertinence. After all, it is a re-selection after the audition. Naturally, the performance items will not be too simple. The students will not just perform an animal, sing a song, dance, etc.
, the minimum standard is also an important part of a high-scoring movie, or there is no limit to speech, opera, etc.
As for Zhou Shiyu... Lu Ze has the impression that she has acted in several hit dramas, so she must have some acting skills, but based on her performance in the works, she is not considered a genius, that is, she is above the passing line. After all, she has been following her for so many years.
The crew should be of this level.
She was able to stand out from the audition, mostly because of her own fame. In addition, there was a certain reason for her being a student of the Imperial Opera. Lu Ze didn't care about the process, he had already been selected, and he couldn't return it.
The reason why she is said to be smart is because based on her current professional level, she can't master the plot of the movie, pass the lines, or complete the opera. It's manual work, and she has probably never learned it. She excludes all the mess.
Only the plays she had taken classes in were able to be produced.
Drama and movie plots are different. There is a big gap between the two. Drama requires clear words and obvious range of movements so that the audience can see clearly and convey emotions directly, while movies require more naturalness. She is not able to perform the naturalness of movies.
It would be better to perform a drama to cover up her own shortcomings.
"Are there any accompanying actors?"
"No."
"Then come directly."
Zhou Shiyu picked up a chair and put it away, then came in through the door again and started her performance. Her expression was already prepared. She carried her bag that was originally placed outside and said clearly: "I came here after seeing the newspaper.
"
The performance form of the drama well concealed the slight weakness of her lines, and her movements were probably more aggressive, and she was very skillful in talking to the air. But at this moment, Lu Ze's heart was not on her performance, but on her nervousness.
Staring at her face, I slowly... lost all interest.
He chose the wrong person. There was a certain distance and short time when choosing the person, so he didn't see it clearly.
Lu Ze's abandonment was written on his face, which made Zhou Shiyu, who looked at Lu Ze from time to time, more and more unsure. Even after Lu Ze stopped looking at her and poured tea, he completely stopped the five-minute performance.
.
"Is the performance over? Then just wait for news from me. Keep your phone open these days and wait for me to contact you."
"Teacher, did I do something wrong?"
She asked back, constantly thinking about whether she had done anything wrong to offend Lu Ze, but after thinking about it, she had no clue. This seemed to be the first time she and Lu Ze met, and they didn't say much.
sentence.
She had the confidence to ask questions, and that was what she should ask. There was nothing she couldn't ask.
After all, she has been in the industry for a long time, so she is naturally not too timid. She will not be like a newly born child who dare not say anything and walk out dejectedly. She wanted to understand clearly, after all, Lu Ze's uninterested expression
, it really hit her self-esteem.
"Wait a minute, Xiao Wang, turn off the recording. Okay... you should pad the mountain roots and fill in the apple muscles, which will affect the naturalness of your smile. You can't achieve the arc of some expressions."
How could Lu Ze's eyesight be weak? In fact, she had some other minor plastic surgery on her face, but Lu Ze didn't mention it. These two things had already blocked her acting career.
"Teacher, I have done some fine-tuning, but the nose and apple muscles are indeed untouched..."
This was the first meeting between the two of them. Lu Ze could speak frankly, but she couldn't admit it even to death. She had to be on guard against others. Being an actor was the first rule. After all, if it was true, it would affect her.
Existing fan base.
"Okay, that means I haven't done it before. Can you just frown and smile now?"
"Teacher, isn't it normal in the industry for actors to fine-tune their facial features now? I think... this shouldn't be a hard standard, right?"
"I'm sorry, this is my rigid standard. Fine-tuning is not within the scope of my consideration. As for me, as I said, keep the phone open and wait for me to contact you, OK?"
Gradually, she couldn't hold on to the smile on her face, and looked at Lu Ze with some confusion. She didn't understand why he had to be so rigid. Why was it okay for other crews, but not for him? He had to find someone who hadn't undergone plastic surgery.
?Any more? Seeing that Lu Ze stopped talking, he had no choice but to hold back his anger, bow lightly, and turn around to leave.
Lu Ze watched her leave, picked up the tea cup, shook his head and sneered. This was not laughing at her, but laughing at the so-called unspoken industry standards in her mouth. He turned over a resume and couldn't help but feel a little worried. God knows how many people he had overlooked just now.
It would be enough to upset me if I had to explain one by one. I didn’t want to worry about it so much. I picked up the walkie-talkie and notified the staff to resume filming and notified the next student to enter.
Chapter completed!
