"This Ji Xiaojie is pretty good. He's a good prospect!" After Ji Xiaojie's audition was over, Chen Wen couldn't help but say.
"You have been training together for more than two months, and you haven't noticed?" Li Yi said with some surprise.
"Hey, forget it, this guy, it's my first time to see him perform." Chen Wen said helplessly.
Li Yi still didn't say anything.
Soon, the third one, Chen Mu, walked in.
Although Chen Mu is about the same age as Zhao Xuan and Ji Xiaojie, his first impression is that of maturity.
Probably because he has appeared in many roles before and won the Best Actor Award at the East Film Festival, so he doesn't look like a newcomer at all.
Since the scene Chen Mu chose was not different from that of Zhao Xuan, he also chose the scene where he pretended to be a corpse and witnessed Zhang Xiaoshan's sacrifice.
However, Chen Mu's performance in this aspect is much better than Zhao Xuan's.
His eyes widened at first, then became hollow and stunned.
However, although Chen Mu's acting skills were good, Li Yi immediately passed him in his heart.
Although Chen Mu seems to have played a rural boy before, and seems to have a background like Wu Wanli, he is too mature.
The last one is Guan Xiaoshan.
"Director Li, Teacher Chen, Teacher Zhou, Teacher Lin, hello, I am Guan Xiaoshan, auditioning for the role of Wu Wanli!" Guan Xiaoshan had a smile on his face.
However, I have to say that some people are born with a certain temperament, and Guan Xiaoshan is like this. His smile is natural, but it gives people a not-so-good feeling.
Li Yi immediately felt that his smile looked like Wu Wanli's.
With a little bit of arrogance!
"What kind of person do you think Wu Wanli is?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
"I think he is a very talented child. He is not an honest country boy, but a smart man who knows how to be flexible." Guan Xiaoshan replied.
"How do you say that?" Li Yi was a little surprised.
Because Guan Xiaoshan's answer is still very different from Zhao Xuan's previous answer.
"First of all, Wu Wanli's ability to successfully join the army may seem very unreasonable at first glance, but in fact, this is something only smart people can do.
Because he wants to join the army and go to the battlefield, he must break through two tests, one by his brother Wu Qianli, because his brother Wu Qianli has always been unwilling for him to become a soldier, and the other by Commander Song.
The reason why I think he is very talented is because first of all Wu Qianli is the commander of the 7th interleaved company and has experienced hundreds of battles. He can survive in the hail of bullets, which shows that he is a ruthless character who sees all directions and hears all directions. His reaction
The reconnaissance ability should be quite good.
But Wu Wanli was able to follow Wu Qianli to the meeting point, and Wu Qianli didn't even know it.
I think this can show that Wu Wanli has first-class tracking skills. A wild boy from the countryside can do this without receiving professional training, which shows that he is a talented player.
On the train, Wu Qianli asked Wan Li how he found the teacher. He said that the person on the train must be a high-ranking official. Wan Li was brave and careful to find Teacher Song, and it was a method that only smart people would think of.
As for how Wan Li persuaded the division commander to join the army, although it is not mentioned in the script, I think from what Commander Song said in his speech, we can infer that Wan Li gave him the reason for joining the army to protect his family and the country.
National justice, coupled with the fact that his eldest brother was a martyr, he successfully joined the army. Later, he told Lei Gong on the train that the reason he gave for joining the army was "to make his brother think highly of him." I think this is how smart he is.
More than that, he..."
Guan Xiaoshan didn't have stage fright at all. He clapped his fingers and spoke one by one.
The more Li Yi watched it, the more he felt that Guan Xiaoshan was more suitable for the role of Wu Wanli.
First of all, I don’t have stage fright, which is very similar to Wu Wanli.
Wu Wanli dared to stop the car, which shows that he is indeed very courageous and fearless. How could ordinary people do this?
And what about Guan Xiaoshan? Since he came in, he has always been very natural, and when he talks, he is even more eloquent.
But it also proves that he really put his heart into it.
"Choose a scene that you feel most confident about and perform it." Li Yi said with a smile.
Guan Xiaoshan chuckled and said: "Director, can you find me a supporting actor? I want to play the scene where Wu Wanli is discovered by his brother Wu Qianli and dragged into the alley to talk."
Li Yi smiled and felt more and more that Guan Xiaoshan was suitable.
Why do you say that?
Because, for the first few, almost as soon as Li Yi told them to start acting, they started acting on their own.
But Guan Xiaoshan took the initiative to ask for someone to co-star him.
In fact, during the audition, to put it bluntly, whether there is a physical performance or not is not the key at all, because when the movie is shot, it will definitely not be like this.
And Guan Xiaoshan's ability to take the initiative to make requests distinguishes himself from others.
"Brother Bin, come on." Li Yi smiled and looked at Lin Yunbin, because Lin Yunbin was originally the actor of Wu Qianli, the male protagonist of this film.
Guan Xiaoshan grinned.
Before he could speak, Lin Yunbin walked over, then reached out and grabbed the back of Guan Xiaoshan's neck, as if Wu Qianli had pulled his younger brother Wu Wanli over.
"How did you find yourself here?"
Guan Xiaoshan shrank back, then straightened his chest and said, "I followed you secretly!"
His performance was slightly different from the original version in Li Yi's memory. In the original version, to be honest, Li Yi always felt that his hands were shaking unnaturally, which was a bit strange.
Li Yi liked Guan Xiaoshan's performance even more.
Although he is not afraid of anything, he is actually a little afraid of his brother.
Especially when you do such a bold thing, how can you not be afraid at all?
What he is afraid of is that his brother will scold him, and what he is afraid of is that his brother will drive him away.
But at the same time, it also echoes what he said to Lei Gong later: "I want my brother to look up to me!"
There was a sense that a child wanted to be recognized, and he was very proud that his brother didn't notice that he followed him secretly, so he puffed up his chest.
"How did you find the teacher?" Lin Yunbin walked back and forth angrily.
"The person riding in the car must be a high official!" Guan Xiaoshan said proudly.
"You stopped the division commander's car?" Lin Yunbin suddenly stopped in front of him and glared at him with wide eyes.
Guan Xiaoshan said loudly: "I want to be a soldier!"
He looked directly at Lin Yunbin.
"Do your parents know?" Lin Yunbin asked.
Guan Xiaoshan's eyes suddenly dodge, and then he suddenly lifted his pants and said with a feeling of risk, "I don't know!"
This scene ends.
Li Yi couldn't help but nodded. He was not the kind of director who was very good at teaching actors how to act.
This is also the reason why he doesn't like to use new actors, so sometimes, he often makes certain corrections based on the actors' ideas, without specifically telling the actors how to act.
Mainly because he feels that professional matters should be left to professionals.
He is the director and what he wants is the result.
This scene with Guan Xiaoshan made Li Yi feel very good.
Especially the layers are clear. If Guan Xiaoshan secretly follows his brother, he will feel proud, so he dares to look directly at his brother, but because he ran out secretly, he feels a little guilty.
The fact that his parents don't know this is the most unavoidable thing for him, so he will dodge his eyes.
