"This broadcast is sponsored by Xinlang Micro Entertainment..."
"Thank you BBK Music Phone..."
"Thank you Yili pure milk..."
"Thank you Mengjie Home Textiles..."
"Thank you Hongxing Erke..."
“…a huge support for this show!”
He Jiong's opening remarks are unique and completely different from the opening forms of all variety shows in the current market.
The audience was stunned for a while, but they didn't feel anything at all. They were even more impressed by some familiar brands.
The media jury found it funny and awesome.
"Hey~" Chen Chuang shook his head: "You, don't take yourself too seriously. You are just a supporting role and you ruin the work?"
After "Supergirl", the variety show sponsorship market has changed. With capital chasing profits, the amount of variety show sponsorship has increased year by year.
On the stage, Zhang Luyi and Chen Chuang were performing.
I don’t know if Chen Kaige is doing this intentionally or if he is just like this.
"Producer Zhang, what do you think?" He Jiong asked.
Zhang Luyi and Chen Chuang performed another part, and the voiceover came again: "This time is good, these two supporting roles are yours."
He Jiong announced that the audience would start a 30-second countdown to vote.
Everyone nodded. Nowadays, the demand for popular actors in the market is increasing. As a result, many actors can film N movies in a year. How can they have time to think about roles? To think about scripts?
Chu Xuan and Wang Jinhua listened and found it interesting.
Liu Yifei tugged at Chu Xuan's clothes and was surprised: "It's a drama within a drama."
This kind of performance made everyone feel novel. They looked at the stage and then looked up at the big screen.
"I didn't expect Zhang Luyi to have such a side." Liu Yifei said softly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Chuang's nose became sore and his eyes turned red. He tried hard to suppress his desire to cry and bowed ninety degrees: "Thank you, Teacher Zhang."
Some media have a deeper understanding: "Not only that, after this program is broadcast, the variety show market is expected to completely gain momentum. Although I don't know how much the 21 sponsorships cost, I just told the market about the number of sponsorships. Now
Variety shows are more profitable than film and television dramas."
"What happened to the supporting characters?" Zhang Luyi shouted: "Which work is not set off by many supporting characters?"
This kind of performance was unprecedented, and everyone in the audience felt fresh and full of interest.
Before "Supergirl", a variety show would only have single-digit sponsorships at most, and a popular TV show would probably only have eleven or twelve sponsorships at most.
This sentence made the audience nod their heads in recognition.
Zhang Lu didn't even turn around, waved his hands and said: "I have hands and feet. I can just do odd jobs and have enough to eat. Let's go."
"I like such opposite endings very much. If you set the tone of this storyline and choose to compromise at the same time or choose the ideal at the same time, the depth of the story will be reduced. On the contrary, like now, I can see that it has practical significance.
artistic presentation.”
"Director Kaige?" he asked Chen Kaige.
"In this work, you, Chen Chuang, represent the insect, and Zhang Luyi represents the dragon that wants to be a dragon."
This is also a very fresh way of shooting and showing it in real time. Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei believe that one day in the future, film and television drama shooting will probably be like this, where the captured scenes will be broadcast in real time to the big screen of the crew for the director team to
Teachers conduct reference and evaluation.
With a "wow" sound, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei applauded along with everyone present. This was really a different kind of "Wind and Cloud", and it had a profound meaning.
Under the applause of everyone, Zhang Luyi and Chen Chuang took the stage. They were the first group to perform.
Chu Xuan smiled: "Many stage performances, including the Spring Festival Gala sketches, are positive until the sensational part at the end. It is rare to see such stage performances with positive and negative aspects. Your feelings should be here."
But when Chu Xuan's thought flashed across his mind, the situation suddenly turned.
"What kind of role does your image fit? This is undoubtedly a very important question."
Chen Chuang said mysteriously, and Zhang Luyi listened thoughtfully.
Chen Chuang stared at Zhang Luyi's back for a long time, unable to regain his consciousness, and at this time, the lights on the stage gradually dimmed.
"Director Tang?" He Jiong looked at Tang Jili.
This is Long Danni's idea. By focusing the advertising business at the beginning of the show with the best ratings, you can avoid some advertising stages that may affect the broadcasting effect of the program.
"Congratulations." Chen Chuang said softly to him.
"I'm not suitable for this role. I can never play the essence. Why should I play it?" Zhang Luyi shrugged and said, "Your role is not suitable for you either. I played Bai Blind. Let's go."
"Indeed." Many media outlets nodded and approved this statement.
If you dare to fight and fight, don't mention it, just say you dare to act.
If an actor only enjoys the convenience brought by popularity and accepts roles without considering whether the role is suitable for him, he may make more money, but he is bound to be further and further away from the word "good actor".
Hearing this comment, Zhang Luyi said nothing and just pursed his lips and smiled.
"I won't act." Zhang Luyi refused.
Tang Jili picked up the microphone: "In a word, if you dare to fight, fight, and act, you are a good actor."
"Haha" laughter appeared at the scene, amused by He Jiong's words.
They are also very interested in cultivating and selecting outstanding actors of the new generation, and it seems that they have a responsibility that drives them to do so.
The eight judges smiled slightly. This is a variety show about performances. If it were other variety shows, they might not agree to come.
In the guest area, Liu Yifei whispered: "It's so touching. It's not the kind of feeling that I feel the same way, but..."
Many viewers at the scene were originally very disappointed with Chen Kaige due to the failure of "The Promise", but Chen Kaige showed a gentle and convincing tone of voice, which made many viewers feel like a spring breeze, and inexplicably felt that they had benefited a lot.
"Interesting." Li Shaohong smiled lightly.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei were among the judges, and the judges completely understood that Zhang Luyi and Chen Chuang were using the performance form of a drama within a drama to satirize the bad phenomena in the entertainment industry.
In his opinion, there was nothing wrong with what Zhang Jizhong said.
So, they came.
When a person's ideals are not realized over and over again, but he still insists on it, he feels very tormented and painful inside.
However, when Kong Sheng said that this version of "The Wind and Cloud" was adapted differently, Chu Xuan didn't see what was different about it.
Although I have trained and filmed N times these days, I am still worried when I go to the scene.
Zhang Guoli continued: "Director Shao Hong thought Zhang Luyi was playing himself. Looking at the performance just now from my perspective, I think Chen Chuang was also playing himself. I didn't see much trace of the performance, which was very good."
"The echo between the beginning and the end is very clever." Liu Xiaoli suddenly commented: "As a non-professional, I think this is a very in-depth performance. The central idea is not directly stated, but it can make me feel it and give me a sense of
It’s a deeply touching feeling.”
The corners of Chu Xuan's mouth gradually turned upward: "No wonder it's different, that's why."
Zhang Jizhong picked up the microphone: "A good actor must have a deep understanding of his own position. He must understand which roles he is suitable for and which roles he is not suitable for."
Li Shaohong picked up the microphone: "Zhang Luyi, your performance makes me feel that it is not a performance, but a true expression of yourself in real life. Your performance just now made me feel that this is you."
In your inner thoughts, you are adhering to your ideals."
"Does it matter whether it's suitable or not?" Chen Chuang asked nonchalantly.
What the others just said was too broad, and they couldn't understand the deeper meaning.
"Golden scales are just a thing in the pond. They turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds."
"Whether the relationship between the characters is clear is my criterion for choosing a good actor."
"Holy shit, this is really awesome." Some media members were dumbfounded, while others were impressed.
Zhang Chuang remained silent and did not respond.
Chen Chuang looked at his back and said: "Your living expenses are gone next month, right? I got half of the remuneration and transferred it to you. Even if I stick to my ideal, I can't go hungry."
Zhang Luyi was startled and pursed his lips: "Director, I don't think I am suitable for this role. The personality of this character is completely inconsistent with me."
At the same time, the big screen above the stage is connected to the director's monitor to broadcast the live shooting in real time, that is, live broadcast to the live audience.
"Oh my God, how much sponsorship is there?" Some media were astonished.
But "I Am an Actor" seems to have set a precedent, with as many as 21 sponsors, which they did not expect.
But Chen Daoming's words resonated with them, and they felt various emotions due to an actor's performance. This was the basis for them, the audience, to identify him as a good actor.
If you want to take a good shot, it's equivalent to several minutes of shooting at once.
"Lao Zhang, forget it, it's nice to have a job." Chen Chuang shook his head.
At this time, the judges were on the bench.
The people at the scene were slightly stunned. What kind of performance was this?
"Okay, okay, director, change now, change now." Zhang Luyi and Chen Chuang nodded, hurriedly took off their clothes, and put on another set of clothes.
"His simplicity lies in the fact that it is just a very common profession among the general public. It is not noble. Many people easily lose themselves without understanding this. If they do, they will be a good actor."
Some media judges scoffed, looking for the right direction? Playing the right role? How many actors are qualified to control the direction of their own interpretation? Isn't it just capital that allows actors to act in whatever they want?
In his opinion, Zhang Jizhong's words were nonsense and far less meaningful than what Chen Kaige said.
Chen Chuang was silent for a moment, then sighed and said: "If I don't argue with you, go and sign the contract quickly. The only way to get the role is to get it."
Li Shaohong picked up a card from the table and said: "I am willing to give you a promotion card. I like you as an actor and I also like your performance."
As soon as Chen Chuang finished speaking, Zhang Guoli picked up the microphone and said: "Chen Chuang, you are an actor who debuted in the 1990s. I think your acting skills are of a very high level. After so many years of debut, I think you should have experienced it too."
Many times I made compromises in the plot I just performed."
Zhang Luyi patted Chen Chuang on the shoulder to comfort him. Through the close communication as a partner during this period, he knew that Chen Chuang had been unhappy in these years. He was obviously very good at acting and could be noticed by the audience in any role he played.
, but I just can’t get good roles.
Zhang Jizhong, Chen Daoming and other judges also nodded slightly and understood immediately.
He Jiong looked at the judges' seat: "The show's judging panel is very strong. It's probably the first time that so many famous directors and famous actors have gathered in one show. It's rare to see."
This is the voice-over on the stage. No one else is seen on the big screen, only this arrogant voice is heard.
"How come it's not important!" Zhang Luyi asked: "If you still act when you know it's not suitable, it will not only ruin a work, but also yourself!"
Of course, if they know that the program is divided into front and backstage, the amount of advertising sponsorship will be more normal. After all, frontstage and behind the scenes are two types of programs.
Zhang Luyi raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of surprise, and bowed to say thank you: "Thank you, Director Li."
Under He Jiong's guidance, Zhang Luyi and Chen Chuang came to stand next to He Jiong. They no longer had the confidence to perform, but were nervous.
Zhang Luyi has also experienced this, but he still has a drama and cannot really empathize with it, but he understands Chen Chuang's difficulties very well.
Li Shaohong picked up the microphone: "Before filming a movie, have you done in-depth research on your character? Have you understood and pondered the character's physical movements and tone of lines? Do you have any understanding of the worldview in which the character lives?
Overthinking? If not, then your character will have no soul. This is also the standard for me to consider whether an actor is a good actor."
In the guest area, Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei nodded slowly, clarifying the relationship between the characters, which is indeed one of the core elements of performing corresponding emotions.
You can clearly see through the big screen, and you can feel the sharpness of his eyes, the calmness of his every move, and the majesty of his slightly lowered eyebrows in contemplation.
And Zhang Luyi is wearing Xiongba's clothes. Although his image is very different from that of the island actor Shinichi Chiba who played Xiongba in the original version, he does have a domineering temperament in him.
"You don't want to act?" Chen Chuang was stunned.
As his voice fell, all the stage lights dimmed and lit again, indicating the end of the performance.
As the lights dimmed, Chen Chuang murmured: "Golden scales are just things in the pond. They turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds."
"This shows that if the ratings of this show explode, Bright Times and Mango Channel will make huge profits." Some media outlets shook their heads and sighed.
"Director Li Shaohong?" He Jiong looked at Li Shaohong.
"And it has a theme. Golden scales are just things in a pond. They turn into dragons when the storm strikes."
Li Shaohong's words reflect the two completely different paths in the entertainment industry, one is the path of working hard to make money, and the other is the path of spending time playing good roles.
Zhang Luyi was speechless, breathed out, turned around and left.
"Dragon?" He laughed at himself: "We have to start with insects first."
She suddenly got stuck and couldn't explain clearly for a moment.
His words were concise and concise, which could be regarded as nonsense, but they contained a lot of things.
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei have thought about bringing this kind of shooting method to the crew now, but the resolution of the LED screen is not high now and is not as good as a monitor. It is enough for the presentation of variety shows, but it is not suitable for the filming of the crew.
Why don't you just look at the monitor.
Chen Chuang remained silent for a long while before saying, "Let's go."
"If you find the right direction and play the right role, you can have a chance to become a good actor."
Fortunately, this is recording, and you can stop it at any time if something goes wrong.
"Wow -" the audience exclaimed. From He Jiong's introduction to the competition system, they knew the role of the promotion card, but they did not expect that the promotion card would be given in the first performance.
Chen Kaige picked up the microphone and said slowly and gently: "An actor is a simple yet complex individual."
Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei clapped, and the nearby and live audience also applauded to encourage Chen Chuang.
But when it comes to good actors, the latter path is undoubtedly the correct answer.
The acting was decent, Chen Chuang's outfit and his face really gave him a sense of déjà vu as a fortune teller.
"In short, the two people have different endings. One chooses to compromise, and the other chooses the ideal."
Chen Chuang pursed his lips: "I want to eat."
There is no need to judge what is right or wrong. After all, everyone has their own pursuits. As long as it does not break the law, any path is right.
After this session was over, He Jiong explained the competition system and then indicated that the performance would begin: "We would like to invite the first group of students to perform on stage."
"What the hell are you doing?"
This is not only a test for them, but also a test for the director, because the shots must be scheduled in real time, and the monitor must be controlled to storyboard and transmit the storyboard images to the big screen.
All of a sudden, the scene changed from a boring oral broadcast session to a relaxed and cheerful one.
"But this role is really not suitable for me!" Zhang Luyi frowned and spread his hands.
Chu Xuan nodded. Zhang Luyi looked a little melancholy when he wasn't talking, and a little funny when he was playing around. It couldn't be said to be domineering, but now he was performing on the stage.
Chen Daoming thought for a moment, then picked up the microphone and said, "As an actor, what can you bring to the audience? Happiness? Beauty? Love? Longing? Blood? Struggle? Novelty? Shock? Excitement? I have reached one of these points.
I think he is a good actor."
"Teacher Chen Daoming?" He Jiong asked Chen Daoming.
When Liu Yifei and Wang Jinhua saw this scene, their eyebrows curved slightly.
Zhang Luyi plays the role of Xiong Ba, and Chen Chuang plays the role of the Clay Bodhisattva. This is the scene in "The Storm" in which the Clay Bodhisattva gives orders to Xiong Ba.
"Zhang Luyi, you don't look like Xiongba at all. Chen Chuang, you are a clay bodhisattva and it's hard to watch. Now, let's try some other roles."
"Okay." He Jiong deliberately breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, my professional skills are good, and I successfully completed this oral broadcast content. It is the first time in my life to face such an opening, which is also a challenge for me."
The audience was greatly surprised to see that in the scene shown behind He Jiong, the crew stood still, making it look like a filming scene.
Questions like these are indeed the criteria for him, as an international action director, to determine whether an actor is a good actor.
The lights on the stage are all bright, and the scene is presented.
Zhang Luyi stared: "You want to act?"
"Before the performance officially begins, I would like to ask the judges, what is your understanding of actors? What do you think makes a good actor?" He Jiong asked according to the process.
In the guest area, Liu Yifei covered her mouth and laughed softly: "It took me a minute to read the advertisement, thank you for the hard work, Teacher He."
"Finding the relationship between the characters, knowing who you are playing, showing the emotions they should have, and making the audience resonate are the basic abilities of a good actor."
Hearing this, the audience looked disgusted.
Can an actor dare to act ugly when the plot requires it?
Would an actor dare to jump into a river when he needs to?
In his directing experience, even with protective measures, many actors would not dare to do certain actions.
Liu Xiaoli showed her face slightly and stretched out her hand to tug his ear.
After the voting ended, Chen Kaige picked up the microphone and said: "I like this work. I haven't seen this kind of stage performance in a play within a play for a long time. It's very novel."
"Auntie can now sit on the judges' bench." Chu Xuan joked.
The voice-over said: "If I hadn't seen you perform well in the play, I wouldn't have given you a chance to audition, you know? Can you do it? If not, get out!"
"His complexity lies in his ever-changing nature. He can be a doctor, a soldier, or a beggar."
In the area behind the judging area, the accompanying assistants of each media took out small notebooks to record the words of the judges and use them as material for future reports.
But this kind of performance, even though they knew about it in advance, also made Zhang Luyi and Chen Chuang, who were the first to take the stage, a little nervous.
"A play within a play." Chen Kaige narrowed his eyes and pointed out the core of this stage performance.
However, some media also recognized Zhang Jizhong's words. Nowadays, many film and television dramas only focus on the benefits that popularity can bring, but do not pay attention to the artistry of the film and television drama itself.
"The echo at the end makes the meaning of this plot complete."
"It should be 21." Some media were incredulous.
This is the result of the fact that the country's electronics industry has not yet developed to this stage, but they believe that sooner or later it will develop to a point that is conducive to the filming of film and television dramas.
After he finished speaking, the students watching on TV in the background looked like students, thinking about Chen Kaige's words.
No one expected that their performance would be in such a format, but it was quite interesting.
Liu Yifei was startled, her eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's it."
Everyone nodded. In their minds, these eight judges should be participating in a variety show for the first time. It is indeed rare.
I heard that Zhang Luyi has performed in hundreds of plays so far. This stage performance method is probably in line with his experience perfectly. He brought the acting method from the play to this stage, making him very full of emotions.
The media reviewers also agreed. Some actors only know how to make money by filming. If they get an endorsement for ten years, what can they bring to the audience? It seems to be none of their business?
Chen Daoming's words hit the nail on the head, showing the core role of the actor profession in society. What can it bring to the audience?
He Jiong then asked the three judges Zhang Guoli, Deng Jie and Yang Ziqiong. Xu Shichen's words covered their opinions. Their answers were also similar, and they all named the value of the actor's existence.
He picked up a card and said: "I'll give you a promotion card. After so many years of training, it's time for you to be discovered by more viewers."
"Come on." Deng Jie encouraged.
"Come on." He Jiong said gently.
"Come on Chen Chuang!" an audience member who knew Chen Chuang shouted loudly.
Zhang Luyi and Chen Chuang bowed again and walked off the stage.
