Hou Shenyue was extremely confused after receiving the news. He hesitated to look at Chu Xiaxing, who had a calm face, and then secretly glanced at Han Chuning, who looked unhappy in the corner. He didn't know what to do for a while.
Han Chuning's temper is not bad at ordinary times, but she can't stand the disobedience and slander of her aunt. When Chu Xiaxing was just reborn, she called her niece, which was also regarded as a prank by Han Chuning.
Chu Xiaxing had no children, and she regarded Han Chuning as her own child, and even more as a direct disciple. Although the two have different jobs, their ideas of artistic creation are in the same line, and they are brought up hand in hand.
Hou Shenyue's words and deeds are no less than a minefield dance to Han Chuning!
Han Chuning saw that Hou Shenyue was like an elm head, she edited the message impatiently, and continued to send warnings to the other party. Because she couldn't directly reveal Chu Xiaxing's identity, she could only reveal a bit of relationship in a tactful and subtle way.
[This is my aunt! This is my mother's god sister! ]
[You are gone. ]
Hou Shenyue saw that Han Chuning was beginning to end, and he glanced at the expressionless Chu Xiaxing, and suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem: "… "
Hou Shenyue: Accidentally bumped into friends and elders, the scene was very embarrassing, why is the other party so senior
Hou Shenyue's head is full of mucus now, and he doesn't know how to fix it. In fact, when he first met Chu Xiaxing, he was quite polite, and he just retorted a few words rather unhappily, but getting along with others is so delicate, as long as there is a slight crack, it will be difficult to make up for it later.
Wang Toyota found that Hou Shenyue suddenly became polite to Chu Xiaxing again, and even the rules were a little restrained, which was more than when they first met. He couldn't help but wonder: "What does this mean?"
Wang Toyota: Will today's young actors change their faces
Chu Xiaxing saw the two children's frowning, she already had some speculation in her heart, and said lightly: "Mr. Wang, you should let him play a schizophrenic drama."
Chu Xiaxing originally had no feelings for Hou Shenyue. After all, weighing whether the leading role can drive the box office is something Wang Toyota should worry about. She only needs to direct a good show, regardless of who the leading role is. However, she is now looking at Hou Shenyue carefully, and her eyes suddenly become critical. She originally thought that the other party's conditions were okay, but now she feels inexplicably almost meaningless.
Chu Xiaxing: After all, Ning Ning is the most obedient and smart child in the world, and where is he from?
Chu Xiaxing's eyes suddenly became cold and serious. She seriously considered the various conditions of a young actor, and her sharp eyes were about to scrape Hou Shenyue down.
Hou Shenyue was sitting on pins and needles under Director Chu's sight. He maintained an embarrassed but polite smile the whole time, and did not dare to move.
After the meeting, Han Chuning planned to come forward to ease the relationship between the two parties, and then ask Hou Shenyue to come over and apologize to the aunt. Taking advantage of no one around, she grabbed Chu Xiaxing's arm and said cautiously, "Auntie, Hou Shenyue just misunderstood a little bit. He's actually quite polite, not a big-name actor..."
Han Chuning couldn't blame Hou Shenyue too much, after all, how could outsiders know about his relationship with his aunt.
Chu Xiaxing gave her a casual glance, and said calmly, "Is he chasing you?"
Han Chuning's pupils suddenly trembled, shook his head into a rattle, and said righteously: "No, no, we are just friends! Pure and flawless revolutionary friendship!"
Chu Xiaxing sneered when she heard the words. She seemed to be suspicious, and asked in a row: "How many people does his family have? How old is this year? What works have you done before? What achievements have you made now? How long will it take to win a grand slam?"
Han Chuning faced her aunt's hukou-style cross-examination, her eyes widened in disbelief, and she said in surprise, "He's only two years older than me, how could he possibly be a grand slam?"
Chu Xiaxing said disdainfully, "A grand slam is not enough? Xu Dao's wife was an eighteen-year-old actress, and she won a grand slam when she was twenty-seven. It's not the same age as him. I didn't designate an award."
Some actors claim to be grand slams when they win three gold medals, while others are grand slams in the five major film festivals. In addition, the gold content of some awards has been declining year by year. Chu Xiaxing felt that winning awards should be easier in recent years. Naturally, I feel that the standard is not excessive, and there is no specified number of awards.
Han Chuning: "..." This is the height that a normal actor can achieve!
Chu Xiaxing looked suspicious: "Has he won an award now?"
Han Chuning said dryly: "Well, it should be an award you haven't heard of..."
Chu Xiaxing shook her head, her face showed a hint of solemnity, and she said categorically: "This is not possible! If he has not won the Best Actor before the age of 30, he really does not deserve to enter our house!"
Chu Xiaxing didn't take Hou Shenyue's fan popularity into consideration, mainly because she had seen too many idol artists, and she fell too fast. Han Chuning's experience continues to improve, and her script writing will become more and more mature, but this is not the case with idol stars, and she must seize the opportunity to transform.
Chu Xiaxing was too lazy to ask about the true relationship between the two children, she just had a judgment on the career planning of both parties.
Han Chuning: "?" What's wrong with this statement
Han Chuning couldn't help but complain: "Auntie, don't talk like a wicked mother-in-law, and awards are not the most important thing..."
Chu Xiaxing said with conviction: "The award is of course not the most important thing, but we have to get it after that! As long as he can become a Grand Slam actor, he can also say that he has a master in the Grand Slam!"
Han Chuning: "..." So this is the world of the strong
Chu Xiaxing saw that her niece didn't take it seriously, she sighed: "It's really impossible, let me rescue it!"
Chu Xiaxing was lost in thought. She felt that it was not that she had no chance of winning the prize if she sparred with Hou Shen more and more.
Han Chuning said hurriedly: "No, no, auntie, I think you have misunderstood something. The logic of this matter doesn't seem to be like this..."
Chu Xiaxing: "Oh, you don't want him to win the award? That's fine, I'll save the trouble." If Han Chuning and Hou Shenyue were okay, then she really didn't need to bother.
Han Chuning looked embarrassed, and hesitantly said: "...Wait, this doesn't seem right."
Han Chuning had already been surrounded by Chu Xiaxing. She wanted to say that she and Hou Shenyue had a revolutionary friendship, but it was outrageous to say that she didn't want the other party to win the award. However, Chu Xiaxing is not a charity director, so why should she cultivate Han Chuning's ordinary friends, not to mention that the other party has insulted her with stupid words.
Han Chuning scratched his head in confusion: "Forget it, get the award, get the award, it's always good to win the award."
Han Chuning finally stopped struggling, she decided to choose the result that looked better, ignoring some details between words.
After the first script reading meeting, the script of "Wu Dao" has undergone several rounds of polishing, mainly to adjust the rationality of some minor details, such as the character logic of supporting characters such as Hua Yan. Chu Xiaxing will meet frequently with actors, not only leading actors such as Hou Shenyue, but also supporting roles such as Cao Yangang and Zhou Xuelu.
In the conference room, Hou Shenyue's assistants came into the room with bags of milk tea and snacks. Hou Shenyue said politely and friendly: "Every teacher has worked hard, I bought some milk tea and brought it here."
Today, the director's team and actors are basically in the house. Wang Toyota and Han Chuning are not there. The assistants start to distribute drinks and snacks to the actors and staff.
Hou Shenyue took the initiative to bring a cup of milk tea, he cautiously handed it to Chu Xiaxing, who was reading the script, and politely said: "Director Chu, this is for you, I'm really sorry for expressing some immature opinions in the last meeting. …”
Hou Shenyue recalled his actions, he was about to be embarrassed to the ground, wishing for social death.
Cao Yangang was burying his head in taking notes on the script and did not notice this scene. Zhou Xuelu was surprised when she saw Hou Shenyue being so polite. After all, she had only seen Zhang Anluo who was arrogant and domineering. She thought that famous actors would have eyes above the top and couldn't speak, but they can actually bow their heads to please people
Hou Shenyue is much higher than Zhang Anluo, but now he looks weak, pitiful and helpless!
Zhou Xuelu: The strange sense of professional crisis has increased, which is simply a blow to dimensionality reduction.
Chu Xiaxing raised his eyes to look at Hou Shenyue, but he still couldn't contain the feeling of being picky. She always saw that Hou Shenyue was inexplicably unpleasant, and he was 108,000 miles away from her own children. She said calmly, "You don't have to tell me sorry, I hope you can play well in the group later, don't be sorry to yourself."
Hou Shenyue seemed to be lectured by the dean of the school. He couldn't raise his head with a guilty conscience, and said honestly: "...Okay, okay, I will definitely act well."
Even if he was as stupid as Cao Yangang, he didn't realize that something was wrong at this time, and murmured curiously, "Boss, why are you being so strict with him? Aren't you kind to good-looking people?"
Chu Xiaxing said indifferently: "What's the use of being good-looking, can you be a best actor if you are good-looking?"
Cao Yangang: "..." But you told me that you are good-looking and can rely on your face to eat, why did you suddenly change your opinion
When Zhou Xuelu heard this, she felt even more aggrieved: "...Is it useless to look good!?"
Zhou Xuelu: My vase dream shattered so quickly? The director really has a new idea every day!
Chu Xiaxing was usually someone who looked at her face, but now she thought about Han Chuning, and demanded that she immediately become both talented and beautiful. She wished that Hou Shen was the best match.
Chu Xiaxing: My requirements are not too high, his ability is at least as good as mine!
Everyone opened the script to exchange, and continued to discuss the characters and plot. As the director, Chu Xiaxing looked around, and when she saw Hou Shenyue who was directly opposite, she asked abruptly, "Since you want to discuss characters, let's talk about your understanding of Wu Shu's character first, after all, he is the protagonist of the movie. Make a sample."
Hou Shenyue was like a student who was named in class. He showed a hint of panic, and hesitantly said, "Do you just talk like this?" There is no buffer at all
Chu Xiaxing: "Let's talk about the eighty-nine games. Let me hear what you think."
Hou Shen flipped through the script more and more, and found exactly the eighty-ninth scene. He did study the script carefully, but at this time, his analysis was not very confident. This thing is the same as reading comprehension. You can do the following reading comprehension questions without having read that article before. These are two different things!
Hou Shenyue finished arrogantly, his forehead was sweating a little, and he looked at Chu Xiaxing uneasily.
Chu Xiaxing raised his eyebrows and said, "Is that all?"
Hou Shenyue: "..."
Hou Shenyue: Although the director's rhetorical question sounds peaceful, why is there a "just this" tone
Chu Xia stared at him with a guilty conscience and pursed her lips, so she didn't press her cold face any more, she said patiently: "The script is different from the novel, it won't give you fancy psychological descriptions of characters, basically only line drawings. and lines, so you have to figure out the psychology of the characters yourself…”
"If you don't understand it at first, think about what you would say when you encounter this kind of thing. Is what this character says the same as what you want to say? If you are different, why is it different? You basically You can understand the character and mentality of the character.”
"Of course, if it's a script full of nonsense, then you don't have to think about it like this. You can decide according to the situation." Chu Xiaxing knew that Wang Toyota's script was just right, and he would not write too straightforward and stupid, which made young actors Not easy to understand, it may take some effort.
A good actor needs to figure out the mentality of the characters by himself, and even extend the text content more abundantly, but if he plays a fool TV series every day, it will easily become completely useless.
Hou Shenyue showed a thoughtful look, and he answered humbly, "Thank you Director."
The other actors also listened to Chu Xiaxing's sharing. It was like an orderly classroom. Cao Yangang raised his hand enthusiastically to speak, wondering, "Boss, but what if I can't figure out the difference between myself and the character?"
Chu Xiaxing said calmly: "It's normal that you can't figure it out. It may be that you are similar to the character, so you are psychologically synchronized."
Cao Yangang was confused: "...but I think my role is a bit stupid? Am I similar to him?"
Chu Xiaxing resolutely dumped the blame: "This is what you figured out on your own, I didn't say it!"
Cao Yangang: "?" Does this mean you are really stupid
The actors laughed when they looked at Cao Yangang's sluggish expression, and even the atmosphere of the meeting was a lot cheerful, and they explained their understanding of the characters one after another.
Hou Shenyue was undoubtedly the focus of attention in the meeting. He was called by Director Chu several times to answer questions, which made him almost have a cardiac arrest, but the other actors were silent and crying!
Hou Shenyue was highly nervous and focused for a few hours, his scalp was numb due to Chu Xiaxing's cold words, and he was about to go out of his body, but Cao Yangang and Zhou Xuelu were jealous.
Cao Yangang was silent for a moment, and finally said with emotion: "Oh, the boss doesn't scold me now, only scolds you, it's really uncomfortable to think about it..."
Zhou Xuelu pretended to cry and said aggrieved: "In the end, one person took care of it all. Sure enough, it was different when the crew was changed. I saw the newcomer being scolded and the old one crying..."
Cao Yangang and Zhou Xuelu: Obviously I was the most favored (scolded) actor in the crew back then!
Hou Shenyue listened to the complaints of his colleagues, he had been trained to be dizzy, and his mood was extremely subtle for a while: "..."
Hou Shenyue: I don't know how to swallow this blessing of being scolded, and I am full of sorrow.
