Chapter 344 Your performance deserves me to open a play for you
The three major instructors collectively slapped Guo Xiaosi in the face, which made the audience in the live broadcast room very happy, and the barrages made it worse.
[Hahaha, Guo Xiaosi is so miserable, he gets yelled at every time he opens his mouth]
[I just thought Director Zuo was unhappy with him before, but I didn’t expect that all three mentors looked down on him]
[Of course I despise him. What is the level of the three mentors? What level is he? Just stay there. If he dares to stab him, can you not deal with him? 】
[The most funny thing to me is Huang Yi’s expression, it’s really high-energy throughout the whole process]
[Hahaha, how to say that sentence, three points of ridicule, three points of disdain and four points of ridicule]
【True·Sector Chart】
[I even feel that the look in Huang Yi’s eyes is like that of Ci Xi looking at the rebellious Li Lianying]
[General Manager Li Feng Ping was murdered]
[I want to cut it out and use it as an emoticon pack]
[Huang Yi: Little dwarf, have you seen the poison apple in my hand?]
[Damn it, I have a picture in my mind]
[Smash it, I smashed all the bookstores downstairs, please stop showing off in front of me]
[The program team should shut up Guo Xiaosi. I really think that for these outstanding actors, asking him to comment is a professional stain]
[No, no, no, I really want to see Guo Xiaosi speak. He speaks first, and then Zuo Le and others criticize him. Hahaha, I have found a new source of joy.]
[The first one is simply devilish, but I like it]
[+1, please guide me to increase my efforts]

When the barrage in the live broadcast room was flooding the screen, ratings with Hu Taoer, Huang Yi and Baby Chuchu also started on the stage.
According to the rules of the competition, the three actors compete in a three-group PK, the winner enters the A-level, and the remaining two enter the B-level.
However, during this period, there was an additional instructor who gave S card some room for maneuver.
Today, more than a dozen actors have participated in the competition, accounting for almost half of the total. As a result, the instructor has not issued any of the eight S cards in his hand.
This round, the three actors all performed well, and it was time for the first S card to appear.
First, the instructor gave the score. Guo Xiaosi gave Hu Taoer, Lao Zhang gave Huang Yi, Zuo Le chose Baby Chu Chu, and finally Yan Fei thought about it and gave Baby Chu Chu.
In other words, regardless of whether she is given an S card in this round or not, Baby Chu Chu is guaranteed to be A-level and nominally won this PK.
Baby Chu Chu's round face showed a happy smile, but it was not too exaggerated.
Because she understands that she defeated Hu Tao'er, the most famous actor in the competition, and Huang Yi, the top performer, to get the A-level. Although it is beautiful, it also means that she basically has no chance to get the S card.
The program team and instructors will not demote Hu Taoer and Huang Yi to B level. If nothing else happens, at least one of her two "defeated men" will be promoted to S level.
Sure enough, Lao Zhang gave out the first S card since the show started, and the actor who got the card was Hu Taoer.
Hu Taoer deserves this S card. Among the more than a dozen actors who have appeared, she is well-deserved NO.1 in terms of acting performance alone.
Many actors and audiences concluded that Hu Taoer could achieve an S card when she performed.
However, Yan Fei quickly gave Huang Yi a second S card, which caused a little noise.
It’s not that Huang Yi is unworthy, she performed very well, but Chu Chu Baby is not inferior to her, and even the overall presentation effect of the clip is slightly better.
Now that Huang Yi has obtained the S card, it is difficult to say whether she relied on her celebrity status and resume to bully Baby Chu Chu, an "internet celebrity amateur".
Several instructors were very calm, including Zuo Le.
Any rating is bound to have its own controversies, but the degree may vary.
Now that Huang Yi got the S card, some people are fighting for Chu Chu baby. On the other hand, if Chu Chu baby gets the S card, there will also be a group of people questioning the rating for Huang Yi.
The two actors have their own merits, and the gap between their strengths and weaknesses is very small. It can be justified who takes advantage of them and who doesn't.
Other instructors don’t know, but at least Zuo Le personally feels that it is better not to get Baby Chu Chu’s S card than not to get it at all.
After all, Huang Yi is a senior in the industry and has a greater reputation than Chu Chu Baby. In the minds of many people, the former's acting skills are better than the latter's.
If in this competition, Baby Chu Chu crushes Huang Yi by a huge advantage, then it doesn’t matter if she takes the S card, as her strength speaks for itself, no one can challenge her.
But the key is that the gap between the two is ambiguous. Under this situation, baby Chu Chu still has to bear some pressure to win the award.
In addition, Baby Chu Chu’s outstanding performance is to a certain extent a trick. She may not be as strong next time. Not giving her an S card is also meant to protect her.
In any case, Baby Chu Chu was able to get away with an A-level in this PK battle between the three strong men, and she also got the favor of Zuo Le, a great director. It can be evaluated as a full harvest.
Baby Chu Chu was also very happy, and the smile on her face was no worse than the other two actors who got S cards.
………
The next competition between the three Hu Taoer actors is Duan Long VS Zhang Xing.
In the last performance, Hu Taoer and the three of them were the same. Each of them performed a solo play. Zhang Xing played Xian'er from Zuo Le's work "Crossing Guandong".
The scene is about Xian'er going through all kinds of difficulties and dangers, finally returning to Zhu's house, but seeing her fiancé announcing his intention to marry her, she is completely disappointed, but she pretends to be strong.
This scene was not easy to act. When Zuo Le filmed this scene, Song Jia, who plays Xian'er, spent two days working on it. With the cooperation of veteran actors such as Li Youbin and Wang Yan, the scene was finally completed.
Taken it down.
Although Zhang Xing only had a week to rehearse, his acting skills were inferior to Song Jia's, and his teammates were on completely different levels.
It's not easy for her to perform well.
There are 19 plays in the first stage, 4 of which are related to the four great mentors. Either they are their works, their original works, or they are roles played by the mentors themselves.
The previous "Sadness Against the River" and Zhang Kaigang's literary film starring Huang Yi, as well as the current "Guandong", are all included in this list.
The difference is that "A River of Sadness" was selected by the actors in front of it, and several B-level young actors who were ranked last had no choice but to choose this play.
S-level Zhang Xing and A-level Huang Yi took the initiative to select their mentors' works.
The reason is very simple. The tutor is instinctively familiar with the tutor's works. Once the performance is completed, it will be easier for him to show his face in front of the tutor.
If Zuo Le and Lao Zhang take a fancy to me, it's all a cloud whether I have an S card or not. It's worth quitting the show immediately.
Of course, everything has pros and cons.
Tutors often have certain strict requirements for their own works. If the performance is good, the performance will be brilliant, but if the performance is not good, the tutor's favorability will probably be reversed.
Just now, Huang Yi won the bet.
But now, Zhang Xing lost the bet.
As a director and screenwriter who has watched the original version and recreated it in real life, Zuo Le is undoubtedly the person who knows the show "Crossing the World" best in the world.
Zhang Xing's acting skills are not bad. She can make a green tea bitch come alive, and she has been frequently searched. She has some real skills.
But she made the most fatal mistake. She completely misunderstood the character of Xian'er.
Xian'er is a girl from Dongshan who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside. After many hardships, she still has a tenacious character, knows justice and is sensible.
Such a girl will be aggrieved, sad, and shed tears, but she will not show all kinds of hysterical despair just because her fiancé is "gone", like a resentful woman who has been abandoned.
This is a heroine who was insulted by a bully, escaped alone, and killed her enemy many years later. She is not a woman with small feet who lost her husband and the world collapsed.
Frankly speaking, Zhang Xing played the desperation of a woman being abandoned very well. If it were other mentors, they would definitely approve of it.
But in the eyes of Zuo Le, the original director, it looked awkward.
If the soul of the character is gone, it's no use no matter how good you act.
When Zhang Xing finished his performance and the instructor made comments, Zuo Le also bluntly expressed his thoughts, and Zhang Xing's face immediately turned pale.
What does it mean to shoot yourself in the foot?
If she had chosen other plays and acted steadily, even if she didn't get good reviews, she wouldn't have gotten into Zuo Le's crosshairs and left the impression that she was acting impetuously and acting haphazardly because she didn't understand the role well enough.
Zhang Xing regretted it very much.
The other three instructors thought Zhang Xing's performance was acceptable, but with Zuo Le, the original director, denying the role fundamentally, they would not compete with Zuo Le, including Guo Xiaosi, who was very unhappy with Zuo Le.
When I reviewed Huang Yi before, he had suffered a loss once from the original director (Lao Zhang), and he was so blind that he jumped into the same pit after seeing the same pitfall.
Zhang Xing went to wait and her competitor Duan Long began to perform.
The clip selected by Duan Long is from a literary film. The male protagonist is a Chinese gangster who smuggled himself into Siam. He has an introverted and sensitive personality and suffers from severe lung disease. He is bullied by the locals and lives a difficult life.
One day, the male protagonist was seriously ill with lung disease. He used all the money he had to buy medicine, but it was still not enough. He knelt down and begged the boss, and finally bought a pack of life-saving medicine.
After leaving the pharmacy, several workers saw him throwing his life-saving medicine at each other to play with the male protagonist. Finally, the medicine fell into the muddy water, and the powder wrapped in paper melted instantly.
The male protagonist holds the yellow medicinal dregs mixed with muddy water, howls in despair amidst the laughter of his co-workers, and then turns completely black.
Duan Long's acting in this scene is from buying drugs to becoming a black man.
In fact, speaking of it, this scene is more plot-oriented. It is taken as a single clip. Without the foreshadowing of the previous scenes where the male protagonist was bullied, the explosive power is slightly weak.
Of course, most of the plays in "Actors Come to PK" have similar flaws. The key lies in whether the actors' performances can make up for the flaws.
As an artist of Shanhe Company, Zuo Le still attached great importance to Duan Long and looked at the stage almost attentively. When Duan Long showed up, his eyes immediately lit up.
When he appeared in the previous pilot film, Duan Long had medium-long hair. Today, in order to fit the role, he shaved his hair to a size that was close to a bald head.
His face was pale and blue, his lips were chapped, and his eye sockets had thick black circles. The camera was close, and the eyes that occasionally opened were drooped and bloodshot. His whole person showed the morbid weakness of a "consumption ghost".
Based on Zuo Le's experience, this state can not only be manifested by makeup technology, but mostly Duanlong uses some "physical stimulation".
For example, if you don't sleep for two or three days, eat very little for two or three days, and stay hungry, you can almost "come alive" with the help of makeup techniques and your own acting skills.
Zuo Le was not the only one to see this. Lao Zhang and Yan Fei, who was an actress, also quickly noticed the secrets in Duan Long and looked at each other with a flash of shock.
Isn't it just a variety show, why should we work so hard?
Guo Xiaosi doesn't have much experience seeing such "maniacs", so he hasn't noticed anything wrong yet.
But he is also the director of many movies, and he still has professional vision. Seeing Duan Long's appearance, you know that this actor is not an ordinary person.
It's a pity that looks are not his thing...
The scene where Duan Long buys medicine is considered to be a foreshadowing, with not many highlights, but it also vividly reflects the sadness of a poor man struggling to survive at the bottom. At the same time, the constant hunching over and coughing movements also make people feel pitiful.
The real climax of the entire clip is when the co-workers start teasing the male protagonist played by Duan Long.
The male protagonist, holding back his illness, staggered among several workers, begging them to return the medicine to him. From time to time, he was deliberately bumped and staggered by the strong workers.
A co-worker got tired of playing with it and impatiently threw the medicine into the muddy water on the ground. Duan Long let out a beast-like roar almost out of reflex.
He was pushed to the ground by his co-workers, holding the soaked residue in his trembling right hand, and then frantically fished with his left hand into the muddy water, trying to "rescue" the medicine. His eyes revealed anxiety and panic, and his ears were filled with pride from his co-workers.
Rampant laughter.
When the scraps he picked up were combined with those of his right hand, Duan Long looked straight at his hands, shaking his head unconsciously, his face getting sadder and sadder, his eyes getting more and more desperate, his mouth kept opening and closing, but he couldn't make any sound.
come out.
After a few seconds, Duan Long could no longer suppress the sadness in his heart and let out a few urgent and short sobs, just like the mournful cry of an animal when it dies.
Duan Long put his right hand full of muddy water and medicine residue against his forehead, his despairing eyes slowly turned cold, the veins on his neck bulged slightly, and the muscles on his face bulged.
He covered his face with his hands, and his whole body trembled a few times. When he took his hands off, the hatred in his eyes made his spine shiver.
………
The whole story will be just over 8 minutes in total. Except for the opening scene of buying medicine, there are nearly 5 minutes left. Duan Long did not have a single line, but the entire scene was silenced.
When Duan Long was welcomed to the stage by Da Dong, the audience belatedly gave him applause in admiration.
The applause lasted for more than a minute. The host Da Dong tried to control the scene several times but was suppressed. Duan Long put his hands together and thanked the audience.
When the applause subsided, the instructor commented. Zuo Le deliberately avoided suspicion, and the other three gave way. Lao Zhang was the first to speak. He didn't say much, but his words were very important.
"A textbook blackening scene, the most amazing performance for me today, Duan Long, I wasn't very familiar with you before, but today I remember you."
Yan Fei also praised Duan Long with a smile on her face, and then curiously asked him if he used physical stimulation.
Duan Long didn't hide it. Frankly, he wanted to be as close to the male protagonist as possible, so he hadn't slept for nearly 50 hours. In the past two days, he had only been able to eat within a range that would not cause him to collapse from hunger.
Duan Long also expressed regret that as a patient with severe lung disease, the male protagonist should be very thin, but he did not have the time to lose weight, so he was still somewhat lacking in physical appearance.
Duan Long's words made Zuo Le frown slightly.
At that time, he was also a loyal supporter of "the drama is bigger than the sky". In order to achieve results, he did not hesitate to support and encourage actors to do some extraordinary actions.
But now as his status is getting higher and higher, Zuo Le's idea has changed. He would rather the effects of movies and TV shows are worse, and he does not support actors making such changes that are similar to self-mutilation for the sake of roles, which is too harmful to the body.
Regardless of whether this is considered soft-hearted or not, Zuo Le still feels that "human life is bigger than heaven" is more in line with his psychology than "the drama is bigger than the sky".
Tian: No matter how you work with me, you are still your younger brother...
Of course, no matter what Zuo Le thinks, at this moment when Duan Long is receiving praise both on and off the court, he, the boss, cannot throw cold water on him. He can go back and persuade him privately on this matter.
After Lao Zhang and Yan Fei finished their compliments, Guo Xiaosi also praised Duan Long a few times, but perhaps because he was responding to Zuo Le, his words were a little more "subtle".
After the three instructors finished their reviews, they finally arrived at Zuo Le, and Duan Long's eyes began to look serious.
To be honest, for Duan Long, a mountain and river artist, even if the other three mentors praised him to the sky, they were not as effective as Zuo Le's smile.
Duan Long attaches great importance to Zuo Le's comments.
Under Duan Long's eager anticipation, Zuo Le spoke, and with one sentence, the atmosphere directly reached a climax.
"Duan Long, your performance just now is worthy of letting me open a play for you."
Looking at Duan Long who was already shocked, Zuo Le continued to emphasize with a smile.
"I'm not joking. Remember this with your agent. As long as the company has a script that suits you, come to me and let me know which role you like. That role will be yours. Everyone present can fill it in.
You bear witness."
"Thank you, Chairman."
Duan Long was very surprised, but what surprised him was not just the character, but Zuo Le's attitude towards him.
If he remembered correctly, in the company, Zuo Le was only so kind and kind to his close friends Gu Xiaoge, Yan Ni, Shui Miaomiao and some veteran actors.
Some time ago, Shen Teng, who was highly praised, also received this treatment, and he was regarded as the first newcomer among Shanhe.
