Chapter 80 Different
"Tell me, what role do you want to audition for?" Zhang Bearded asked curiously.
Generally, the crew will notify the crew in advance for auditions, or the actor will tell the crew in advance the role he wants to audition for.
There are also actors who try out several roles in a row after they come.
But it was different here. Zhang Yuan glanced at the corner. Several cameras were firmly set aside, filming the whole process.
"Sure enough, this guy is using the audition as a talent show and for publicity."
The celebrities coming from the main entrance outside are obviously all pretense. In fact, many people also know that Zhang Beard is using them for publicity.
But they can also rely on this so-called "audition" to earn enough footage. Everyone takes advantage of each other and understands it tacitly.
The actual content of the audition here will be edited into behind-the-scenes footage before the official filming starts, or during the press conference, and then promoted.
It must be said that Zhang Dabeard is indeed talented in publicity and hype, and his thinking is advanced.
Zhang Yuan pretended to think deeply for a moment, then showed an open face and answered.
"I think if I have the chance, I would like to play Xu Zhu and Duan Yu."
"If not, Murong Fu and You Tanzhi are also my goals."
< br>Zhou Xiaowen let out a light "tsk".
Li Dawei and Yang Tao both praised this boy for his magnanimity and his striving for the top.
But now when he was asked to choose a role, why did he skip over Qiao Feng, who everyone wanted to play? Is this because he was cowardly?
Big Beard, on the other hand, had a different reaction from Zhou Xiaowen and leaned forward. This subconscious action showed that he became interested because of Zhang Yuan's answer.
Every male actor wants to play Qiao Feng, and every actress wants to play Wang Yuyan.
Although Mr. Jin originally intended that the protagonist of "Dragon Movie" be Duan Yu, most of the audience's favorite is Qiao Feng.
Wang Yuyan is the most beautiful in the whole film, whether in novels or movies and TV series, so it is reasonable for actresses to flock to her.
Therefore, more than ten male actors have been auditioned before, and Zhang Yuan is the first one in the age group of 20 to 40 who has no expectations for the role of Qiao Feng!
This made Zhang Dabeard, who had a deep memory of him because of his three "returns", even more interested.
"Why didn't you mention Qiao Feng?" Zhang Jizhong asked with a smile.
“Qiao Feng is so righteous and heroic.”
“I am willing to die for the sake of helping my brothers and for the stability of my family and country.”
"Such a heroic character requires an actor to have a matching temperament. I don't have it, so I don't dare to dream."
In fact, Zhang Yuan knew in his heart that the candidate for this role had already been decided, and anyone who fought for it would be in vain.
It is better to take a step back to make yourself stand out and leave a deeper impression on the other party.
"Yes." Zhang Jizhong nodded and accepted his statement, thinking that this boy looks young, but he is quite self-aware and a knowledgeable person.
The bearded man looked down at the list of actors in his hand, and suddenly asked casually for no reason.
"Since you don't dare to act, who do you think is suitable to play Qiao Feng?"
Zhang Yuan fell silent again, and after thinking about it for a while, he slowly spoke.
“I think both Mr. Li Yapeng and Mr. Lu Yi are suitable.”
Li Yapeng and Big Beard have already collaborated on two Jin Yong dramas, "The Swordsman" and "The Condor Shooting" He starred in "The Legend of Heroes", and Li Yapeng came to the rescue like a "timely rain" during "The Swordsman", so during this time period, the bearded man liked him very much.
Not to mention Lu Yi, he was at the "catwalk" today, so he must be counted.
"But..."
The bearded man thought Zhang Yuan had finished speaking, and was about to ask him to put on makeup and prepare for the scene, but he spoke again.
“But I think there is another person with a more suitable temperament, but he has never acted in costumes, so I dare not speak nonsense.”
“Who?”
“Just now Teacher Hu Jun who won the Hong Kong Golden Bauhinia Award.”
In fact, the first two are hooks, both paving the way for Hu Jun.
“Ouch!” The bearded man tilted his head. This kid’s thoughts unexpectedly coincided with mine!
He didn’t know if Zhang Yuan could not be accurate when filling out the test paper with standard answers.
Zhang Jizhong is extremely confident. To put it harshly, he can be called headstrong.
The more confident and arrogant a person is, the more they firmly believe in their own judgment. Now that Zhang Yuan has exactly the same idea as him about the actor for the role of Qiao Feng, he is more and more pleased with Zhang Yuan.
In a big family, which grandchild does the old man usually like the most?
Not the one who is the best, nor the one who is the best at flattering, but the one who is most like me!
Arrogant people are very narcissistic, what they actually like is themselves.
Now Zhang Yuan agreed with him, and the bearded man instinctively brought himself in.
Those who are like me must be smart people and have a bright future!
Zhang Jizhong smiled with satisfaction and nodded from time to time. Zhou Xiaowen on the side looked surprised. When had the bearded man ever shown such a favorable look to an actor when he met him for the first time.
“This guy is a master!” Zhou Daoxin said, I seem to have underestimated this guy.
The key point is that he doesn't seem to have done anything, but he can attract attention.
“Let’s do this, give him a copy of Xu Zhu and a copy of Murong Fu’s lines.”
I have already played Duan Yu three times, so there is no need to watch it again.
As for why he wasn’t given You Tanzhi’s lines.
Zhang Jizhong took a look at Zhang Yuan's appearance. He had a slender figure, regular facial features, dignified appearance, and impressive equipment.
And You Tanzhi is an ugly ghost. Most of the time in the play, he is either wearing a mask or wearing artificial scars. If Zhang Yuan plays this role, his image will be ruined.
Big Beard first passed on the possibility of Zhang Yuan playing You Tanzhi.
"Who, who's talking!" Zhang Yuan looked around in panic.
"My chess game has been laid out for decades and no one has cracked it. Today you broke my chess game, why don't you come in quickly." The bearded man was anxious to watch him perform, so he simply took the script and cooperated with him show.
The passage given is about Xu Zhu defeating Zhenlong chess game and Wu Yazi imparting centuries-old skills.
It can also be regarded as one of the famous scenes in "Dragon Babu".
"Little Monk Xu Zhu, I would like to pay my respects to the senior." Zhang Yuan clasped his hands together, with his hands on his chest, looking nervous but respectful, and bowed to Yaran, the "judge's seat".
"Okay, let's go change some clothes." The bearded man waved his hand to signal to stop.
Zhang Yuan went to the locker room under the leadership of the staff.
"Xiaowen, what do you think?"
"Not bad, Xu Zhu was very cautious when he first debuted." Of course Zhou Xiaowen has to praise him.
"Ma Peng, what do you think?" The bearded man turned to ask another person present.
"I think it's average." The person who spoke was the assistant director, who was also included.
At the same time, it was also Zhang DaHu’s thorn in the crew.
"Jian, Yuan Bing, what do you think."
"I only play drama, I don't know much about acting." Yuan Bing smiled and waved his hand.
As one of the Seven Little Blessings, Yuan Bin not only understands drama, he also understands it far better than ordinary directors.
It can be seen that he is well-informed and experienced in the world. When he saw Ma Peng, who was on the side of the bearded man, and was contradicting Zhou Xiaowen, he wisely protected himself and smiled without saying a word.
"I think the acting is pretty good." Zhao Jian has been with Big Beard for more than ten years, and his relationship is strong enough to say casually: "One more thing, he did a good job."
Zhao Jian raised his arms at this time, and like Zhang Yuan just now, he put his hands together and made a Buddhist namaste.
"Mr. Tian Lianyuan told us before when we were on the set of "Water Margin"."
Mr. Tian Lianyuan is a storytelling artist, together with Yuan Kuocheng, Shan Tianfang and Liu Lanfang, they are collectively known as storytelling. Four families.
This person served as the art consultant for the 1998 version of "Water Margin".
“The authentic Namaste ceremony pays attention to the joining of the ten fingers, which represents the ten directions in Buddhism: heaven, earth, east, west, south, north, gate of life, position of death, past and future.”
“Putting your hands on your chest means that your fingers are connected to your heart and your heart is sincere.”
“Most people can do these two things, it is very common.”
"But most people have a misunderstanding!" Zhao Jian opened his palms and showed them to everyone: "When ordinary people perform Namaste, they not only connect their ten fingers, but also put their palms together."
"Actually, this is wrong."
"The correct Namaste requires a slight bowing of the back of the palms and a slight bend in the palms, forming a tiny hollow in the middle of the palms."
"The empty door, Emptiness, this void, represents the principle of vacuum, also called the emptiness of dependent origin. "Seeing that the five aggregates are all empty, it is no longer affected by form, thought, and awareness."
The real thing. A good storyteller knows astronomy from above, geography from below, and has a thorough understanding of the past and present. He must have something in his stomach. Mr. Tian Lianyuan is obviously a person who has the universe in mind.
At that time, on the set of "Water Margin", he said this when he was instructing Zang Jinsheng, who played Lu Zhishen, to do the namaste. A few years later, Zhao Jian's memory is still fresh.
“The young actor named Zhang Yuan just now, his movements are correct, leaving holes, and very standard.”
“I think he has a connection with Buddhism and knows a lot , You have wisdom.”
Zhao Jian was also present at the dinner that day. He already had a good impression of Zhang Yuan and had a good relationship with him, so it was not an exaggeration to say a few words of praise when he got the chance.
The bearded man beamed with joy, but quickly suppressed it.
"Okay, let's see again..."
