Chapter 15 Yang Mi: Zhou Yutang, I’m pregnant!
He looks ordinary, but his demeanor is very calm. His speaking voice is neither slow nor urgent, and he seems to have a strange charm.
This is Zhou Yutang’s first impression of Teacher Zhang.
Teacher Zhang Songwen was very serious when teaching. When he saw someone taking notes, he would slow down his speech and kindly reminded: "You don't need to take notes in my class. After class, I will mark the key points." The lecture notes are sent to the public mailbox. If you need to, you can go back and read them again. If you still don’t understand, you can come to me.”
He was in a very relaxed state, and first talked about some performance theory. methods and knowledge, and then clapped his hands: "Next, let's act out a simple situation: you are a college couple. Your girlfriend found out that she was two months pregnant. She hesitated to tell her boyfriend about it. Which classmate I am willing to come up and set an example.”
Many people raised their hands enthusiastically, including the diligent Zhu Yilong. Zhang Songwen pointed with his fingers,
"Zhu Yilong, Gao Ye, you two come first."
Zhu Yilong and Gao Ye sat down with Zhang Songwen. Opposite us are all classmates, freeing our natures, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
Take a few deep breaths, adjust a little, and soon enter the state.
The two acted very smoothly, but from Zhou Yutang's perspective, the marks in the performance were too serious, which is normal. After all, their acting skills are still very immature and they have not yet matured.
Sure enough, after the two people's performance, Zhang Songwen commented directly:
"Your performance was too routine. What you just performed was too accurate. It seemed that both of them knew what had been decided. Things are the same, Takano, you are a little nervous, please relax a little."
"Remember, sometimes when it comes to acting, inaccurate acting is accurate, and acting too accurate is inaccurate. Do you understand? ”
While commenting, Zhang Songwen also incorporated the performance theory knowledge he just taught into it to make it easier for people to understand.
“Okay Teacher Zhang.”
Zhu Yilong nodded with enlightenment, feeling inspired.
"Yeah."
Takano was also a little embarrassed and blushing, secretly annoyed that she made a mistake when she said her lines just now.
Then he called several more groups and commented on their shortcomings and areas for improvement. Zhang Songwen tapped his finger again:
"Zhou Yutang, Yang Mi, you guys Come.”
Only then did Zhou Yutang realize that Senior Sister Yang Mi was also there.
Da Mimi also wants to make progress?
The two sat opposite each other.
Zhou Yutang smiled and nodded at Yang Mi. Yang Mi's expression was also very calm, and she winked at him, a bit like brother, don't worry, sister will protect you later.
After all, in Damimi’s opinion, she started acting when she was only a few years old, and she has had an acting career for more than ten years. She is better than 99% of Nortel students, and it is not difficult to perform in public.
But when she found Zhou Yutang coming up with a cup of milk tea, her face looked a little strange.
This week Yu Tang doesn’t play according to common sense, so why does he bring his own props?
What does he want to do?
With her mind full of doubts, Yang Mi began to think about how she should perform.
She is a very smart girl. Just now so many classmates came up to perform, and they showed some flaws and problems. She only needs to improve these problems on this basis, then naturally The best of them all.
When the performance started, the small classroom became quiet, and Yang Mi's recognizable low and sweet voice sounded: "Zhou Yutang, I have something to do with you."
Zhou Yutang bit his milk tea, his expression was calm, his eyes were level. Her voice was calm: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"I'm pregnant."
The expression on Yang Mi's face changed slightly, and she said hesitantly, even her voice seemed A bit uneasy.
“.”
When Zhou Yutang heard the news, he did not respond immediately. He just stopped sucking the milk tea, frowned quietly, lowered his eyelids, and looked away.
In an instant, without even a word, the panic and confusion were expressed very clearly.
"When did it happen?"
After a long silence, Zhou Yutang put down the milk tea in his hand. Zhou Yutang's voice was very depressed, and the muscles on his face were trembling slightly. His emotions seemed to be about to explode. critical point.
Yang Mi pursed her lips and said: "Two months ago, I just found out when I went to the hospital last week."
Then, the muscles on Zhou Yutang's face began to twist uncontrollably, feeling a little frightened and at a loss.
After a moment, his eyes were blank at first, and then evasive, with confusion and avoidance about the future. The muscles on his face twitched unconsciously, and he said with a serious expression:
"Are you sure that's me? "Yes? I remember wearing a condom that time!"
There was a burst of snickering in the classroom, and Senior Sister Yang Mi opened her mouth slightly, her little face turned red, and she glared at Zhou Yutang. One glance.
If looks could kill, Zhou Yutang has been killed hundreds of times by Xiao Guoxiang's Heavenly Sword.
Zhou Yutang, you really deserve to die!
"Okay."
Zhang Songwen stood up and pressed his hands before calming down. He continued to comment in a calm tone: "This group just performed very well."
"First of all, classmate Yang Mi, she behaved very maturely, but one thing to note is that judging from your performance just now, you know how to act very well. You are a college student yourself. When encountering this kind of situation, The situation should be that you want to seek support, but you act very calmly, as if this matter happens five or six times a year."
Yang Mi: "."
Zhang Songwen made a small gesture with the index finger and thumb of his right hand together, and continued:
"Also, I discovered a problem with you. Although it is not obvious, your performance seems to be somewhat programmed. , this may work for most TV dramas, but if your acting skills continue to improve, it is best to change this."
"In addition, your voice is too recognizable. She has a slightly sweet voice, which is advantageous for playing a girly role, and she is naturally close to the character, but when you expand your acting skills, it is easy for people to act out."
"Thank you, Teacher Zhang."
Yang Mi stood up and thanked her.
Zhang Songwen was not targeting her, he was talking about practical things and pointed out the problems she had, which was also for her own good.
Then, Damimi gave Zhou Yutang a fierce look.
Pop! Snap! Snap!
The students in the classroom applauded one after another, and Zhou Yutang also clapped gently, pretending not to see Da Mimi's glare, but he couldn't help but admire her secretly.
As expected of Mr. Zhang, the famous theater geek from the Film Academy, he really has something.
Yang Mi has been on the set since she was a child, and she is so accustomed to acting that she subconsciously performs it in a programmed manner.
What is programmed performance?
Some veteran actors in the industry once commented on the definition of programmed performance.
Happiness is hahaha, and pain is wow wow wow. When acting, I didn’t use my brain, and formed a set of reaction mechanisms within my own comfort zone. Later, Damimi wanted to perform well, but ended up thinking too much. When I was young, I didn’t even know how to perform
“Let’s talk about Zhou Yutang’s performance just now. He is an ordinary college student, so when he heard the news about his girlfriend’s pregnancy, he was completely confused at first. Then he will panic involuntarily, and what kind of reaction will he have in this messy state? ”
Zhang Songwen explained very carefully and carefully: "The best reaction is to lose control of the muscles. This is the physiological reaction of our acting."
"Remember one sentence, any advanced acting skills are sometimes inferior to It's wonderful to show people's physiological reactions. You can carefully observe the performance of top actor Robert Downey Jr., I believe you will gain a lot of insights." After talking carefully for a while, Zhang Songwen paused and turned to ask Zhou Yutang, "Zhou Yutang. My classmate did a great job in this performance just now. I have a question.”
“Teacher, please ask.”
Zhou Yutang smiled and nodded.
Zhang Songwen asked with a smile: "You give me the feeling that you and your girlfriend have really experienced similar things. Otherwise, how could you show such a true reflection?"
The classroom burst into laughter. , the one who laughed the loudest was Zhang Ruojun, and the air was suddenly filled with joy.
"Teacher Zhang, I don't have a girlfriend."
Zhou Yutang was also helpless.
Zhang Songwen was praising his acting skills from another angle. It is actually quite a sense of accomplishment to be recognized by such an outstanding actor.
At the end of the acting class, Zhou Yutang smiled at Yang Mi and apologized. Senior Sister Damimi didn't appreciate it at all. She glanced at Zhou Yutang again, flicked her hair and left with a small bag on her shoulders.
The two of them had just acted opposite each other. Although her room for performance was relatively small, there was no doubt that Zhou Yutang's acting skills surpassed hers, which made the arrogant Damimi a little unbearable.
Zhou Yutang didn't take it to heart. When everyone dispersed, he took the initiative to say hello to Zhang Songwen: "Teacher Songwen, hello, do you have time in the evening? I would like to treat you to fish."
“Let’s talk about things first, and we’ll talk about it after dinner.”
“You all have a seat, Teacher Yao has already told me your basic situation.”
Zhang Songwen greeted Zhou Yutang and the others to sit down very kindly, and praised: "Yu Tang's performance just now was really great, and he performed the state I wanted."
"No, compared to Zhang Teacher, I still have a lot to learn."
Zhou Yutang said modestly. Zhu Yilong and Zhang Ruojun also laughed. They probably thought Zhou Yutang's last line was quite funny.
“Don’t be formal, call me Song Wen, or Lao Zhang.”
Zhang Songwen said with emotion: “You are really amazing. You formed a crew by yourself. I have seen The script is up, Yu Tang plays the male lead, right?”
"Well, I just hope Teacher Zhang can give me some advice. This is also my first time filming a TV series."
Zhou Yutang said seriously.
The acting tutorial class just now was for the public, and now it is just a small start.
The novel and script have already been tattooed for Zhang Song. He has done a lot of homework in private, so there is no obstacle to teaching them at this time.
Zhang Ruojun’s character, Mo Junjie, is the simplest. It can be summarized in one sentence: an infatuated and loyal man who is a domineering scholar and a warm man who secretly has a crush on Chen Yunru, who has low self-esteem and sensitivity.
The roles Zhu Yilong wants to play are also very clear: first of all, he wants to play two people.
My elder brother Xie Zongru is a kind-hearted squad leader, but his younger brother Xie Zhiqi is a psychopath. In the future timeline, his soul traveled to the past, occupied his brother's body, and committed a perverted act of killing Chen Yunru. The big boss of the show.
"Not bad, you three are very enlightened."
Zhang Songwen talked for about an hour, and then looked at Zhou Yutang and the others with some surprise.
"The main thing is that Teacher Zhang teaches well." Zhou Yutang said modestly.
"I'm really not kidding. You are considered to be very talented among the students I have met. This class of students is really amazing."
Teacher Zhang Songwen said seriously.
After listening for another hour, Zhou Yutang and others were still not satisfied.
This kind of one-to-one lectures actually helps a lot to improve their acting skills.
After the lecture, we made an appointment to have a meal together. Eating fish is not just a talk. There is a Yudu grilled fish near the film school that is really good. The price is reasonable and the flavor is outstanding.
A few kilograms of black fish are placed in a rack on the iron stove, with side dishes such as celery, bean sprouts, and peanuts spread on the bottom. The secret sauce of butter is poured on top, and then covered with a little green hat. The aroma is overflowing. The taste is really good. Absolutely.
However, Zhang Songwen refused to let Zhou Yutang pay for anything, and rushed to buy the food after ordering.
After enjoying the meal, Zhou Yutang thought about it for a while, his heart moved slightly, he put down his cup and asked: "Teacher Zhang, can you do me a favor?"
"You said, if I can help you, I will try my best."
Zhang Songwen is also very frank and straightforward.
"It's like this. The crew now has a role to play the uncle of the heroine Chen Yunru. Are you interested?"
Zhou Yutang explained: "Because it is a supporting role, the pay will not be very high, and Teacher Zhang will also be required. I will serve as an acting teacher with the team, and I will be paid 20,000 yuan.”
The supporting role plays a role in connecting the plot, and there are many roles. Zhang Songwen looks relatively mature, and needless to say, his acting skills are perfect. Match the role.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t need money.”
Zhang Songwen agreed without thinking, poured a glass of wine, and said with emotion: “Yu Tang, what have you done in the past few years? , the first person to ask me to act.”
"Teacher Zhang, you have such good acting skills, but you can't even act?"
Zhang Ruojun was shocked.
"Yes, you may not have imagined that last year I applied to more than 300 film crews, but none of them wanted me."
Zhang Songwen shook his head and said with a bitter smile. .
Zhou Yutang also heard something about Zhang Songwen from Teacher Yao.
Zhang Songwen originally graduated with the first place in the film school, but after graduation, he did not film for a few years, so he stayed at Nortel as a part-time teaching assistant. At the worst time, he changed from three meals a day to one. After a meal, he even went to the vegetable market to pick up and sell leftover vegetable leaves.
As well as his fellow sufferers Zhou Yiwei and Lin Jiachuan, they were in a similar situation. When they were in poverty, they spent one yuan and fifty cents a day to go to Hong Kong. Ting eats a pancake.
This is the reality.
In this circle, there are actually many outstanding actors who have no background, and no outstanding image.
Being buried is the norm, being able to come forward is an accident.
So when Zhou Yutang extended an olive branch, Zhang Songwen was very excited and took the initiative to fill up the wine and lift the glass.
Zhou Yutang is also very satisfied.
Without spending much money, I hired a supporting actor with excellent acting skills, and he also served as the acting teacher of the crew, who could give guidance to the new members of the crew on their acting skills.
This wave is like Qin Shihuang touching the switch and winning!
After a little communication, the two parties hit it off and reached an intention to cooperate. We will be our own people from now on. Zhou Yutang felt slightly happy and raised his cup: "Then please give me some advice from Teacher Zhang. The contract will be signed when the time comes. Send it over.”
"Come on, cheers."
"Cheers."
Please vote for support! Standing alone is really painful!
