Now that he has the opportunity to show off, Wang Kai is somewhat confident in the role of Bai Xiaonian. Because he played Chen Jiaming as a sissy in the recently completed TV series "The Invincible", and was unanimously praised by the director and peers on the set.
Good reviews.
At this moment, he showed Chen Jiaming's energy, thinking that he was very good at it. Just when he was about to speak like a girl, He Xin suddenly shouted: "Stop! Stop!"
He Xin frowned and said with dissatisfaction, "What the hell are you doing? If you behave like this, you won't be able to get through even in front of Xu Ke, let alone me."
His words were very serious. In any case, Wang Kai came from Zhongxi Opera and was his junior brother. However, Wang Kai's exaggerated performance just now did not seem to be of any level at Zhongxi Opera. It was not even as good as that of Nortel.
, probably at most the level of the Art Department of Beijing Normal University or the Performance Department of Communication University.
Hearing He Xin's criticism, Wang Kai was stunned at first. He didn't understand why He Xin's reaction was so big. He obviously felt good about his performance, so why couldn't he pass it?
Fortunately, he had encountered many obstacles in the past two years after graduation. Maybe his acting skills had not improved much, but his face had been tempered. Even though he felt humiliated in his heart, his face was only slightly red, and he stood there cowardly without daring to say a word.
Chen Zhixi was also stunned for a moment. This was the first time she saw He Xin criticizing someone so harshly. She was a little worried that Wang Kai would not be able to keep it on his face, so she hurriedly said to Wang Kai, who was standing there with his head bowed: "Akai, Brother Xin, what is this?"
You are the only one who would criticize me like this, so you have to ask for advice humbly."
After saying that, he quickly laughed with He Xin and said: "Brother, don't be angry. If there is anything wrong with Akai's performance just now, you can criticize it."
He Xin may also realize that his reaction just now was a bit excessive, and he breathed a long sigh of relief. Wang Kai apologized before and said: "Wang Kai, I'm sorry, I was a little excited just now."
After being reminded by Chen Zhixi, when he heard what He Xin said, Wang Kai hurriedly raised his head and waved his hands: "Teacher He, please don't say that. Maybe my acting is not good, and you are right to criticize me!"
"possible?"
He Xin couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "You don't even understand what your problem is, how do you know that my criticism is right?"
"Well……"
Wang Kai was indeed a little unconvinced, but he couldn't explain why.
He Xin looked back at Chen Zhixi and asked, "Do you see something is wrong?"
Of course Chen Zhixi didn't see anything wrong with it. On the contrary, she even thought Wang Kai's acting was very good just now, otherwise she wouldn't have the courage to bring Wang Kai in front of He Xin.
She was a fool in front of He Xin, and said with a smile: "Brother, I won't do anything in front of you, you should give me some guidance."
As soon as He Xin heard this, he knew that she couldn't explain it. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Including Tong Yali, whom he had always admired, it seemed that the quality of the graduates of the Chinese Opera Performance Department in recent years was worrying.
He shook his head, glanced at Wang Kai, who seemed very modest on the surface but had a hint of unwillingness in his eyes, and asked, "Tell me first what are the characteristics of Bai Xiaonian?"
"Well, Bai Xiaonian is the aide-de-camp of the commander of the puppet army. He was once a famous Kunqu opera actor. He was gorgeous and unique. He pursued inner sanctity but had no fighting ability. He was the most innocent person among the suspects and could not
He accepts the fact that he is imprisoned, and he cannot stand the doubts and contamination of others..."
Wang Kai subconsciously memorized the introduction to the character Bai Xiaonian in the information.
"Well, I'm pretty familiar with it, but do you understand it? Bai Xiaonian is not only Commander Zhang's attendant, but also his male favorite. He used to be a famous Kunqu opera singer. He may be forced to do it, or he may have to.
Accept his current identity. What he can't stand most is other people's questioning and contamination of him, which shows that he is a very sensitive person. Then he will definitely be very sensitive to his identity as a male favorite. The more such a person is, the more he will
Pay attention to your words and deeds, how could you be so exaggerated? And..."
He broke apart the character Bai Xiaonian, crushed it into pieces, and analyzed it with Wang Kai.
Wang Kai was unconvinced at the beginning, but gradually became thoughtful.
"I don't know what you are thinking. I think what you just showed should be the Bai Xiaonian you imagined, a stereotyped Bai Xiaonian, rather than the real Bai Xiaonian. In my opinion
Understand that the positioning of such a character must not be exaggerated. On the contrary, he should show his masculine side in normal times. Of course, he may show a bit of femininity in his image or mentality, but it must not be exaggerated.
It’s absolutely impossible to have orchid fingers, and your voice will definitely not be girly.”
"..."
Wang Kai listened very seriously. He suddenly felt that Chen Jiaming's character, who he was still complacent about because of the director and the same praise, suddenly became useless. Deep down in his heart, he was still a little unconvinced. He wanted to refute, but found that he was not convinced by He
I can't find any reason to refute the new positioning of Bai Xiaoniang.
He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word. His whole expression was confused.
Seeing this, He Xin glanced at Chen Zhixi, who was also lost in thought, and felt particularly disappointed.
He let out a long sigh and said: "I remember when I was studying at China National Theater Academy, during my freshman and sophomore years, in addition to practicing martial arts and going to the rehearsal room, the teacher would also give homework on character observation notes..."
Chen Zhixi and Wang Kai nodded in unison.
"I don't know if you just treat this as homework, or if you have really observed it seriously, or if you don't take it seriously at all, there is no such accumulation in your memory bank. I
I feel that as an actor, you must have a memory bank in your mind of various characters that you often observe. When you receive a role, you can immediately search for the characteristics of this character in your mind.
Things are not specific to any person, but a combination of them.
It definitely doesn’t mean that after I accept this role, I will search for such characters all over the street. This depends on daily accumulation, and after the accumulation is completed, it must be put into your memory bank. When you arrive in an unfamiliar environment, you will be exposed to new things.
Some people seem to be casual, but as an actor you must use all your sensory organs to observe them, especially those with unique characteristics..."
"Wow! Brother, I finally understand why you are so good! I never took these seriously before. It seems that I am not really made to be an actor."
Chen Zhixi is not an outsider. After all, she also graduated from the Department of Chinese Opera and Performance. This time she is definitely not flattering, even if she is flattering, she is definitely sincere.
Wang Kai had a more complicated look on his face. At this time, he realized how ridiculous his so-called unconvinced attitude was. In the past, he always thought that He Xin was lucky, but now after hearing what he said, he realized that he was
Success doesn't happen by accident.
Thinking about it, when he was a junior in college, he had the opportunity to star in a TV series called "Cold Autumn". Although he was only a supporting role, he still received a certain amount of praise at the time, which gave him the opportunity to sign a contract with Huayi Brothers.
Originally, he thought that he would be able to successfully film movies in the future, and even bought a house in Beijing. He only asked his parents to pay a down payment, thinking that he was capable enough to repay the loan. However, reality taught him a hard lesson, and he was unable to do anything for a long time.
Shoot, I can’t even repay the loan.
Before, he had always thought that he was unlucky and had no opportunities, but he had never really reflected on and examined himself. Was it just bad luck or no opportunities? Now he found that he was different from those big people who he thought would succeed easily.
There is such a huge gap between them.
He Xin revealed his shortcomings in one sentence: he did not thoroughly study the character and had no accumulation.
"Teacher He, thank you!" He finally bent down to He Xin sincerely and solemnly thanked him.
"Okay, I think your external conditions are pretty good. If you really want to win this role, you must first research the character thoroughly and position the character through your own understanding. It is best to write a few biographies and analyze the character.
Let’s look at the characteristics of Bai Xiaonian rather than relying on our own imagination, which is too natural.”
To be honest, he was completely disappointed with Wang Kai at this time, but for the sake of Chen Zhixi and his fellow Chinese opera masters, he said a few words to him.
"Boss, how is this handsome guy?"
Not long after Chen Zhixi took Wang Kai out with a face full of shame, Xiao Douding knocked on the door and came in.
He Xin smiled bitterly and shook his head. If he was asked to choose at this time, Su Youpeng would be his first choice. After all, his performance in the original version was obvious to all. He even regrets giving Wang Kai a chance to audition now.
But at the same time, I am also very glad that Chen Zhixi can bring Wang Kai here today. Otherwise, with his level today, he would be directly brought in front of Old Monster Xu, which would make Old Monster Xu laugh out loud, and he might even question other recommendations recommended by the company.
Candidate.
"I hope he can be more prepared next time and not embarrass our company. Thank God."
"Really or not? I heard Zhixi boasting about how amazing it was before. Could this damn girl have tricked me into finding an embroidered pillow?" Xiao Douding couldn't help but widen her eyes after hearing this.
"Well……"
However, thinking of Wang Kai's achievements in later generations, He Xin shook his head and said: "The embroidered pillow is not that good, maybe it still lacks experience?"
Thinking about later generations, Wang Kai seems to have become famous very late. In his memory, he didn't know this handsome guy until he watched "All Quiet in Peking".
"Is something wrong?"
"The flight tickets are booked and we will fly to Shanghai at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. From the company's side, I, Lu Xiao, Shen Ming, and Director Cheng will be with us. Hairun Qianyi's side, Sister Hong, Jiang Wenli, Yingying and Tong Yali are also with us.
One flight. Teacher Liuliu will fly directly from Singapore to Shanghai tomorrow."
In addition to Song Jia in "Latent", Jiang Wenli in "Golden Wedding" and Cherry in "A Woman's Life" are shortlisted for the Best Actress in the Magnolia Award at the Shanghai International TV Festival. Both of them are actors under Hongjie.
.
"What about Jiang Qinqin?"
"Oh, she passed away two days ago and even attended the opening ceremony. Hey, didn't you know?"
"Where should I go?"
"I thought she would say hello to you. Haven't you always had a good relationship?"
"What does it mean that the relationship has always been good, that is, we have only worked together twice." He Xin suddenly felt guilty.
Xiao Douding originally just said it casually, but he didn't expect this guy's reaction to be so big. He couldn't help but wonder: "Don't you have a good relationship? I remember you had dinner together last time."
"It's been a long time and it's still the same as last time. Besides, why can't she still report to me?"
"no……"
Xiao Douding was even more strange. She looked at him in confusion and said, "I just said this, why are you nervous?"
"Am I nervous? Stop joking! Okay, I know this. Is there anything else?"
"Uh...it's okay."
"Let's go if you have nothing to do. Don't worry, I'm still busy now. Chen Xi came here and delayed me all morning. I haven't even read these documents yet." He Xin waved at her like he was shooing away flies and lowered his head to tidy up the table.
files on.
Xiao Douding walked out of the office in confusion. He didn't look at the dark door until he closed the door, and muttered: "It's really inexplicable that Jiang Qinqin has such a big reaction... Hey, they can't...
"
However, Xiao Douding quickly shook her head and pointed at her boss's dog-licking behavior towards Cheng Hao. She felt that she shouldn't think about it in this regard. It seemed that such a thing was impossible for her boss.
…
The flight was at nine o'clock and we arrived at the airport early in the morning.
"Sister Wenli, what have you been busy with recently?"
He Xin hadn't seen this senior sister for a while, so he walked over and said hello with a smile.
Jiang Wenli smiled and seemed a little embarrassed, but Sister Hong next to her said with a smile: "Wenli is going to be a director now and is preparing for her new movie!"
Her relationship with Jiang Wenli is more like a pair of best friends than the relationship between an agent and an actor.
"real?"
He Xin couldn't help but widen his eyes. He had never heard that Jiang Wenli could be a director.
Only then did Jiang Wenli shyly reply: "This is my own story, a story about my childhood and my grandfather..."
After saying that, she said sheepishly: "Xiao He, when the time comes, I would also like to ask you to help me and play a guest role."
"No problem, when will the photo be taken?"
"If everything goes well, the production will start next spring. Don't worry, it won't take you too long then, it will only take about ten days at most."
"Ten days?" He Xin suddenly looked hesitant.
"What, the schedule doesn't work?" Jiang Wenli asked hurriedly.
At the same time, she glanced at Chang Jihong, who gave her a helpless look. Although she was still He Xin's agent in name, she never had much say in matters such as accepting roles and scheduling.
Just when Jiang Wenli was nervous, she saw this guy frowning and said: "Sister Wenli, it only takes ten days, so the role you have arranged for me is too small. How many scenes are there?"
"Pfft!"
Before the two middle-aged men could react, Cherry, who was sitting on the other side and had been eavesdropping on the conversation, couldn't help but laugh.
Then she said with an embarrassed look on her face: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it. It's just that Brother Xin is too bad and he deliberately teased you!"
In fact, this girl is the same age as Cheng Hao, and one year older than He Xin, but she debuted later, so she always calls him Brother Xin.
It's quite interesting to say that two generations of heartthrobs, eighteen years apart, are actually actors of the same age.
"Xiao He, you really scared me just now. I thought you were not free?" Jiang Wenli said coquettishly at this time.
Then he also joked: "There are four characters in my story, and there are only two male characters, the physical education teacher and my grandpa. If you can play my grandpa, I have no problem with it. You will definitely be the number one male!"
