Chen Wen sighed and said: "The previous performance was not bad, but the understanding of the plot and the characters' emotions at the time was still not adequate. However, there are still merits. After all, this kind of understanding of the plot is still needed
Someone gave me some advice.”
Li Yi nodded and said with a smile: "Old Chen, it seems you really like this Zhao Xuan?"
Chen Wen nodded and said: "Ask other people, Zhao Xuan is indeed good!"
Zhou Guo and Lin Yunbin both nodded in agreement.
"Next one!" Li Yi was noncommittal.
Outside, after Zhao Xuan went out, although he still had a smile on his face, he no longer had the confidence he had before.
He suddenly found that the capital he was proud of seemed to have lost its effect at this time, and the so-called advantages seemed to be gone here.
This is also true. If it were for other movies, other directors might attach great importance to his popularity, but for a movie like "Changjin Lake", to be honest, it's not that actors are unimportant, but at least, this
A movie with a similar theme theme really does not lack the popularity blessing of Zhao Xuan.
The cast of the movie itself is strong enough, coupled with Li Yi's own golden signature and the appeal of the main theme movie, Zhao Xuan's biggest advantage is nothing at all here.
Secondly, it is true that Wan Xing is an investor, but who is Li Yi?
His movies are always begged for investment by others, so if Wan Xing really wants to interfere with his casting, it will only be counterproductive.
And Wan Xing might offend Li Yi because he is an actor? It is impossible to think about it.
"Is the next person, Ji Xiaojie, here?" the staff came out and asked.
"Here!" Ji Xiaojie quickly stood up and said.
"Follow me!" The staff member smiled and motioned for Ji Xiaojie to follow.
At the same time, in the audition room, Li Yi was also discussing Ji Xiaojie with Chen Wen and others.
"Xiao Ji, he doesn't talk much. He is a person who is willing to work hard and endure hardships. During training, he is the hardest working person, but his personality is a bit too boring, which is completely contrary to Wu Wanli's personality.
Of course, the fact that he got the first place in the art exam shows that his talent is pretty good, but I don’t know if he can perform the kind of "rascal" character that Wu Wanli had." Lin Yunbin pondered for a moment and said.
"Which scene do you think he would choose to act in?" Chen Wen asked with a smile.
"It's really hard to say. His personality is in conflict with Wu Wanli, so I think if he is smart enough, he must choose a play that can prove that he can play the role of Wu Wanli, who has the opposite personality." Zhou Guo also said
interjected.
Li Yi basically had an impression of Ji Xiaojie, who had a dull personality but was very talented.
In fact, many actors are completely different things on and off screen.
For example, comedians, in fact, many comedians are not necessarily the kind of people who have a cheerful personality and like to joke in real life. In fact, many comedians' real-life personalities are completely contrary to those in movies.
Therefore, personality has never been the key to whether an actor is qualified for the role.
Ji Xiaojie walked in.
"Director Li, hello teachers, my name is Ji Xiaojie, and the role I am auditioning for is Wu Wanli!"
"Have you read the script?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
Ji Xiaojie nodded: "Look!"
"Emm, in the movie, Wu Wanli received a red scarf thrown into the car by a fellow villager. Wu Qianli told Wu Wanli that on the battlefield, the red scarf was too eye-catching and could easily be spotted by the enemy. It almost served as a target for the enemy, so
Why does Wu Wanli still carry it with him?"
Then Ji Xiaojie was confused.
Because he had thought about many questions that Li Yi might ask, but he never thought that Li Yi would ask such a question.
In fact, to put it bluntly, during the audition, it is relatively normal to ask the actors for their interpretation of the character, but it is also relatively general.
Because "Changjin Lake" is not a particularly artistic movie, as long as you read the script, your interpretation of the characters will be the same.
But questions like the one asked by Li Yi are obviously somewhat deliberate.
Not only Ji Xiaojie was confused, Chen Wen and others also looked at each other in confusion.
However, they all smiled and looked at Ji Xiaojie curiously, wondering how he would answer.
"Uh..." Ji Xiaojie was indeed a little confused.
I even forgot to answer for a while.
"Can't answer?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
"No, it's not!" Ji Xiaojie said quickly.
"Then let's talk, it doesn't matter, just treat it as small talk." Li Yi said with a smile.
It's just that Ji Xiaojie never really thought it was just chatting, but he didn't know that Li Yi was just having a bad taste. Ji Xiaojie's personality was relatively boring, and he just wanted to see what the other side of him was like.
The red scarf can be said to be a special prop in the movie.
On the battlefield, death is eternal, and iron will and blood are the mainstream. At this time, the red scarf looks a little red among the green.
"It should be the feelings of teenagers, right?
When Wu Qianli returned home, he said that when he came back next time, he would give his third son a wife.
So I think it was the woman who gave the scarf to Wu Wanli who gave him a beautiful imagination of the opposite sex.
Wu Wanli is a hot-blooded young man, and the red scarf is probably the first gift he has received from the opposite sex in his life, so it is very, very special."
Ji Xiaojie said seriously.
It actually surprised Li Yi and others.
"Is there any more?" Li Yi asked encouragingly.
"Also? Well, it should represent the military and civilian family, right? The girl gave Wu Wanli her own red scarf. In fact, it was not a gift to Wu Wanli, but more of a recognition of Wanli's status as a soldier and a hymn to the hero.
.”
"Is there anything else?" Li Yi continued to ask as if he was searching for the root cause.
"And...that is, Wu Wanli is a new recruit. He doesn't understand what this thing means on the battlefield, right?"
"Any more?"
"No, no..." Ji Xiaojie was not very old after all. He was asked so many questions by Li Yi, and he didn't know whether his answer was right or wrong, so he seemed a little embarrassed.
"Okay, next, you can choose a scene to act in." Li Yi stopped embarrassing Ji Xiaojie and said with a smile.
Ji Xiaojie was not as surprised as Zhao Xuan.
But I thought about it seriously.
"Then I will play the scene where Wu Wanli receives the red scarf?" Ji Xiaojie said.
"Okay!" Li Yi couldn't help but smile, but he didn't expect Ji Xiaojie to choose this scene.
Chen Wen and Zhou Guo looked at each other, both of them a little surprised.
They were quite familiar with Ji Xiaojie. This kid usually couldn't do anything, but they didn't expect that he would choose such a scene to act.
"You have five minutes to prepare." Li Yi said with a smile.
Soon, Ji Xiaojie started his performance.
Again, there is no physical performance, but it is obvious that Ji Xiaojie is very talented in being able to pass the art exam as the first place in the exam.
At least his performance was much better than that of Zhao Xuan before.
He made a motion to catch the scarf.
Then there was a shy and silly expression on his face, making him look like a young man who was just beginning to have a love affair.
It can be said that it has completely changed from Ji Xiaojie's previous dullness.
