The door of the study was closed, but not locked, because Qi Jin was free to move the doorknob when he tried to move it.
There was no sound inside.
"...Shen Yan?" His question was as cautious and patient as he was knocking twice on the door.
"… Hmm." The answer was lighter than the question itself.
Qi Jin quickly and carefully opened the door, the lights in the room went out at some point, and only the cold white light of the computer screen was printed on the wall. Even though this was the only light source left, Shen Yan buried his head in his hands as if he was afraid of light, and sat down as still as a stone, while his chair turned his back to the screen.
Qi Jin seemed to realize something, hurried to him, held his shoulders and asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"
"It's alright," he heard the slight hoarseness in Shen Yan's voice as the distance drew closer. He probably hadn't fully recovered from the choking just now, but at least they could have a normal conversation. "Emotions... Not coming back. Sorry, just give me a little more time."
Is that really the case? Qi Jin frowned.
In fact, I had guessed that Shen Yan might have entered the role too deeply, and it would take a while to recover. But now he can say it himself, proving that he is conscious and self-adjusting. Qi Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
"Take your time, I set up a recording for the game for you. It's being recorded. You can listen to it later."
Although I am very sorry for the last two players, but now, apart from being by Shen Yan's side, he has no extra thoughts on other things.
"Come on, give me your hand."
Qi Jin first moved the earphones aside for Shen Yan, and then lightly touched the hands covering his head, trying to break them apart. Shen Yan's shoulders trembled slightly, her spine gradually straightened, she raised her head, and put her hands down following his movements obediently. Qi Jin didn't urge, and waited patiently until his face was completely separated from his palm, and then slowly held his hand.
Shen Yan's palms were a little wet.
Of course Qi Jin knew what it was, so he didn't ask or wipe it for him, he just silently put his hands around his head, turned back, and firmly pressed the person in front of him into his arms.
Shen Yan was silent and unresponsive at first, leaning weakly against his chest, and after a while, his hands slowly touched Qi Jin's waist and hugged him silently.
Qi Jin couldn't help laughing, and gently patted him on the back like a child, comforting her with her hands and mouth.
"You deserve it very well, and everyone is moved."
"Really..." Shen Yan muttered to herself, seemingly not seeing the enthusiastic response from the audience on the public screen.
Qi Jin was stunned for a while, and couldn't help laughing: "Why, did you turn around and not look at the screen after you finished matching?"
Unexpectedly, Shen Yan's answer surprised him: "I didn't look at the screen from the beginning, the whole process was with my back to the computer, I just followed the host's instructions step by step."
"You said you didn't look at the screen from the beginning?" Qi Jin asked again as if she couldn't believe it.
"Ok… "
"What about the lines?" The character lines of the preliminary round were temporarily announced by the official and only posted on the announcement.
"I read the lines when they just came out, and then the players who came out before me kept repeating them. After listening to them many times, they naturally remembered them." Shen Yan took a slow breath in his arms, hands from He loosened his waist, straightened up, and rubbed his face with a frown, as if he had calmed down.
Qi Jin looked down at his face. Fortunately, not particularly pale, just looking tired.
"You... Still can't do the dubbing while watching the audience below?" It's no wonder that when there are more than 10,000 strangers watching, most people will be stiff, not to mention Shen Yan. That kind of huge psychological pressure can't be felt if it's not in person or in person.
"As long as it's done." Shen Yan whispered, still not looking at the screen.
When Qi Jin heard this, she suddenly wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it, so she could only stare at Shen Yan silently until the dynamic on the screen drew his attention back.
At this time, the last player seems to have also ended, and the official staff is counting the final total points and rankings.
Next, it should be Pu Yuzhi's turn to comment on the performance of the contestants one by one—Qi Jin thought of this, and suddenly patted Shen Yan's shoulder lightly, and then without waiting for the other party's response, he took the lead in pulling out the headphone plug and changed it to Outgoing mode.
The bright and melodious voice of Sister Yu of the Spring Song rang out again.
"Everyone listeners and contestants, after more than an hour of exciting competition, the second banknote of the preliminaries of the "Zhu Tian Ling" dubbing audition, Xiaoshan Old Man has finally entered the final stage! I believe everyone has been looking forward to this moment for a long time - yes, Next, we invite the representative of the judges in this field, Mr. Pu Yuzhi Pu, to comment on the game just now! Welcome!"
There was cheers on the public screen, and they used Pu Yuzhi's name to help the situation.
Pu Yuzhi's red vest boarded the wheat sequence, first cleared his throat, or habitually said "Hello, classmates", which made the audience laugh for a while.
Unlike the official Longbow, who is polite and polite, she doesn't say any polite words, she gets straight to the point, and has the demeanor of a professor who starts talking eloquently when she opens the lecture notes in class: "I know that many people have objections to the grades I gave, and they want to talk about it. Ask me why I give some people low scores and some high scores. Don't worry, let's start with the characters themselves - please repost the character settings of 'Old Man Xiaoshan'."
Yang Chunqu heard the words, and really changed the content of the announcement and added the character settings previously announced by the official.
"Okay, as you can see, the character 'Xiaoshan Old Man' is an old man in his 60s or 70s, and he is the head of a sect. He loves his apprentice as if he were his own child. This is the official word. ." Pu Yuzhi read a paragraph according to it. She is a lecturer specializing in broadcasting and hosting. She usually speaks very loudly and forcefully, which makes people involuntarily listen to it. "Generally according to the formal commercial dubbing, the dubbing staff must first understand the original work before dubbing, including books to read, and movies and TV. The content depends on the content, and you can only start when you are fully prepared. Whether you are working hard in this area will be obvious to those in the industry as soon as they hear it.”
Qi Jin was a little ashamed to hear this.
When Shen Yan proposed to read the original work of "Zhutian Ling", he also felt that Shen Yan was too serious, and felt that as long as there were official character settings, it was more than enough.
But Pu Yuzhi's words made him feel that what he has done is far from enough, because the description of the characters in the original work is more comprehensive and three-dimensional, and it cannot be replaced by a few simple character introductions. Especially after listening to Shen Yan's Xiaoshan old man, this perception is even stronger.
You must find time to study the original work carefully, and do your best to cope with the subsequent games.
Pu Yuzhi's following words eased his guilt slightly: "But considering that most people are amateur dubbing enthusiasts, and it is not easy to read a half-million-word novel. Then, let's take 10,000 steps back. Speaking of which, it's better to read the official character setting carefully, right?"
Qi Jin nodded, he had taken a serious look at this.
"If you just look at the character design of this character, you can roughly analyze the key points to be expressed: First, the sense of age, I know that most of the players are young guys, and it is difficult to match the old grandpa, which is relatively restrictive; second, Identity, this person is not an old man passing by casually on the street, nor an ordinary farmer, woodcutter, fisherman or the like, but a head, and the head must have the momentum and temperament." Pu Yuzhi did not Analyze them one by one in a hurry, "Then the third and most important feature - love disciples like children. Please keep the above three points firmly in mind when you listen to my comments later."
At this time, there were a few clattering sounds similar to paper flipping from the other end of the network cable, which should be Pu Yuzhi looking at something. It is estimated that she, like Shen Yan, records the performance of the players while listening.
"Then let's start with player 1. Player 1..."
She commented one by one according to the number. The style of the comments was similar to what Qi Jin expected. It was not as gentle as the longbow, the tongue was sharp and the words were bloody, but it also benefited a lot. If a question from the audience appeared on the public screen during her speech, she would stop and slowly explain why she made such a comment until everyone was convinced.
- As expected of a famous teacher.
At this time, Qi Jin lowered his head slightly to look at Shen Yan.
Shen Yan was still sitting quietly, the focused demeanor was familiar to him, he knew that Shen Yan was listening carefully, but he still did not turn back to face the screen.
"The following is the No. 19 contestant." When Pu Yuzhi reported the number of the bombing, the angry little fans finally waited for the moment of explosion, and complained on the public screen that the judges were pressing the score, causing their idols Second place again.
Pu Yuzhi did not make any response to this, but just began to evaluate his overall performance in a straight-forward manner.
"First of all, I must say that this player's sense of age is slightly better than everyone else's. The grandfather's voice is very accurate. It can be seen that he usually puts a lot of effort into practicing, which is not bad."
Slightly, here comes a classic twist.
"However, the sense of age is only one of the criteria used to measure the suitability of the voice line. In addition, the characteristics of the character should also be considered. The character of this character is calm, respectable and amiable. The voice of No. 19 listens to Get up... It is not so much a leader who lives in the mountains and is indifferent to the world, it is better to say that he is a martial arts alliance leader who often issues orders. The momentum is enough, but there is a feeling of floating, more outgoing than introverted. ."
So she gave 3.5 points, which means that she is generally satisfied, but her temperament performance is different.
"In terms of pronunciation, this player's skills are also better than many others before. He should have practiced well, his articulation is very clear, and his Mandarin is standard, and some lines will find their own pause points. It can be seen that he is thinking about the rhythm when dubbing. I believe everyone can hear these good things." Pu Yuzhi's approach has always been a compliment that should be praised, and it will not be missed, even when he is poisonous. "But unfortunately, the 'basic points' of the latter two and the 'Contagion' is disappointing."
As soon as these words came out, the public screen immediately exploded.
Fans rallied to attack him one after another, fighting for Uncle Pao.
Audience 1: Our uncle Pao clearly has a wonderful match, I think it is very contagious! Why give 1.0 points! Why say "sorry"! Very hurtful, okay? Don't all teachers focus on encouraging students
Audience 2: I don't understand. While saying that most people are amateur dubbing can be understood, and using such a professional air to evaluate the players, do you dare to be more duplicitous? ? (︶︿︶) = convex
Audience 3: Strongly request another person to comment! ! Whoever made a bad review, asked the one with the lowest score to come up and comment. Isn't this a clear bully to our uncle Pao?
…
Pu Yuzhi was silent for about three seconds, then suddenly said: "Many people don't like to listen to critical opinions, which is normal. I feel uncomfortable even when I eat bitter things. This is a person's instinct. Under the special circumstances of the competition, there are more opportunities to be criticized than usual, some from the judges, some from the audience, and some from the opponents."
The scene calmed down a little, and she continued to speak very calmly.
"Criticism, you have to listen to it - but you don't have to listen to all kinds of criticism. Criticism can be divided into benign and malignant. For some people, he listens to both benign and malignant, and he listens to them all. That's called inferiority; some people don't listen to both and continue to do their own thing. This kind of talk is self-confidence if it sounds good, and conceit if it sounds bad. My personal opinion is to distinguish rationally, accept benign criticism, and ignore malicious criticism - this, I consider it self-improvement.”
The last sentence is the point.
"I can humbly say that my criticisms are all benign. As for those who are too inferior and conceited, it is probably useless to argue whether these are benign criticisms, and you can choose not to listen. On the contrary, rational people welcome to stay. Down."
A slap slapped loudly, and the vicious words on the public screen were indeed much cleaner.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was not his own account, and as a CV, it was not appropriate to express public opinions, Qi Jin really had the urge to run to the public screen to line up and shout "Mr. Pu V5".
"Then I'll go on to talk about No. 19." Pu Yuzhi calmly continued the topic just now, "Qin Tuo, who has been wandering for a long time in the first scene, returns, there is not much emotional change between the few sentences of the master, and it is a tune from the beginning to the end, The emotions of surprise and love are not prominent, giving people the feeling that the apprentice actually goes home every day, and there is nothing special about it. It is estimated that because of the need to control the sense of age, the light is suppressed, and the tone is not taken into account - this is a lot of voice changes The common problem of the system.”
The booming voice stood out against the background of many players in front. It can be said that the opening was amazing, which is a good thing.
The disadvantage is that the primary and secondary are reversed, and the more critical tone fluctuations and emotional expressions are ignored, which is not noticed at the time, but now I realize it after listening to Pu Yuzhi's analysis.
"From the second act, this character began to have a misunderstanding, and it was quite a big one." Pu Yuzhi turned the page again, it seems that she recorded very detailed records and wrote a lot of words at that time, "To be honest, I think the official tone label is a bit too simplistic, but there is also a simple reason for simplicity, and the focus is to check whether the players have carefully read the settings, and whether they have thought about the tone logic from the standpoint of the role."
"My first impression on the 19th was that this master had a strong bias towards his apprentice, doted on Qin Tuo, looked down on Bai Ke, and even used the younger apprentices to teach the older apprentices everywhere. Just imagine how a person who loves his apprentice very much would Doing such a thing that hurts the other's self-esteem? As a mother, what I want most is to see my children live in harmony and harmony, not to see them fight and break up. From the point of view of a leader, such favoritism is not allowed. If he treats his younger generation unfairly, how can he be admired? How can he maintain the sect?"
"If everyone reads the original book, they will find that Bai Ke is actually a person with an inferiority complex, and the master who understands his character defect is even less likely to deliberately sprinkle salt on the wound. This is a big mistake, this scene It was wrong from the beginning, so it became more and more wrong afterwards.”
She pointed out the fatal injury of the blast, that is, the interpretation of the mentality of the old man Xiaoshan towards Bai Ke.
Whether it is the second act or the third act, his interpretation seriously violates the portrayal of the original.
"The last paragraph is the main reason for my rating of 1.0. I personally think that the plot is quite important, it is one of the most emotional scenes, and it is the main point to arouse the audience's emotions. As I said before, the feeling on the 19th is that... Qin Tuo is his real apprentice since he was a child, and Bai Ke was only accepted by him halfway through, but anyone who has read the original book knows that it is actually the opposite. The word 'Master' has both a teacher and a father, and the performance on the 19th is only Master Yan but not kindness. Father, there is a misfortune to teach a heinous disobedient disciple, I wish I could kill him with my own hands to purify the master's sect."
Pu Yuzhi's voice sank, and his tone was more severe than before: "There is one more crucial piece of information - Bai Ke was already dead at that time. For an old man who is over sixty years old, the most painful thing is that the white-haired person sends the black one. Faren, seeing the child raised by oneself turned into a box of ashes, even if the other party’s sins were more and more serious before his death, and he was once angry, he would not be indifferent to the child who was dead and could not be resurrected, and he would not behave like the 19th. Cold blooded."
It's clear why the score is so low.
This time, even the fans of the blasting gun became dumb one by one, as if they had completely disappeared from the screen, without a trace.
The review continues.
When Pu Yuzhi was about to finish evaluating player No. 27's performance, Shen Yan, who had been silent until now, suddenly asked in a very low voice, "How many points did they... give me? Can I advance?"
It sounded a little hesitant.
Qi Jin couldn't help staring at him with wide eyes: "You actually took off your headphones without even listening to your total score?"
Shen Yan sighed repressedly: "Sorry, I'm a little afraid... I'm afraid the result will disappoint you."
If I knew that the first place in the total score said that about myself, I don’t know how many players would have fainted with anger—Qi Jin was angry and funny, but all kinds of emotions were intertwined, and in the end, it was a subtle pain that won. In the bottom of my heart, it also fell on his fingers that stroked Shen Yan's cheek: "You, you should give yourself a little more confidence."
Bowing his head, he kissed Shen Yan's forehead with some pity, pressed her face lightly, and decided to speak out the long-buried words.
"Actually, I want to tell you-"
At this time, Pu Yuzhi's words interrupted Qi Jin: "Next, I will comment on No. 28, who is also the only player who has scored four points since the start of the competition."
Shen Yan heard the words "all four points", her whole body trembled slightly, and she raised her head in confusion.
He was greeted by Qi Jin's faint smile.
"Listen," he said, "now, do you know your score?"
"No. 28's voice is actually not very distinctive, and it belongs to the type that is relatively unrecognizable, but it sounds very calm and upright. This impression has not changed even in the state of pseudo-grandfather, This is very rare among voice-changing players."
Pu Yuzhi gave a rare smile during the review process.
"As for the dubbing, the key point is the word 'dubbing'. This is very different from the stage performance, and considering that "Zhu Tian Ling" is a game, what players see in the eyes of the players are the characters in the game, and the voices fit the characters. On the basis of the image, the voice actor should also hide himself as much as possible, and let the person who hears the voice enter the play instead of the play - from this point of view, it is actually a good thing that the voice characteristics are not obvious."
Any work that matches the picture, the sound must match the picture, otherwise it will be out of place and people will not listen to it.
This is the biggest difference between film, TV and game dubbing and traditional radio dramas.
"On the 28th, your voice is relatively simple and gentle, which makes me think that I can imagine an old man who lives in seclusion in the mountains, idle in the clouds and wild cranes, and indifferent to fame and fortune. This is one of the characteristics of Xiaoshan old man. When you take the role, you will not feel abrupt. , and you can make the voice sound natural, unlike many young people who pretend to be in their 60s and 70s and have a blunt feeling of pinching their noses and talking, which is good."
"What's even more rare is that while you control your voice stably, you can also pay attention to adjusting your tone according to the changes in the character's position when speaking. This is often forgotten by many people. For example, in the first act, you The transition from a master to a master and then to an old father who is eagerly looking forward to the return of his child is something I personally think is handled with great care. The punctuation marks in the official lines are only for reference. The environment and atmosphere you were in at the time, but I feel like you took it into consideration."
Next, she gave an example of what it means to incorporate lines into the environment.
"Everyone, close your eyes and think about it. At midnight, the old man Xiaoshan suddenly found someone outside the door. If you further contact the background of the original work, it was a period of turmoil in the rivers and lakes. It's normal for the disciple's first reaction to be vigilant. But at this time, he suddenly found out that his little apprentice had returned safely, and his identity changed, so of course his emotions would also change, especially the last sentence that seemed to be complaining. I can hear the deep love... This is the ambivalence of our nagging old people who are always looking forward to the return of their children, and they can't help but feel angry when they come back, and they are very accurate."
"In this scene, whether it's the pause in the sentence, the priority of the lines, or the small gasp that I added, people can experience a flow of characters' emotions in the process of listening."
Hearing this, Qi Jin couldn't help but slightly raised the corner of his mouth.
Yes, this is how he and Shen Yan used to feel when playing with Shen Yan - as if he was in the scene, he could clearly see the other party's movements and expressions, and he could make a reasonable reaction based on this sense of picture.
"Let's talk about your sense of dialogue. I seldom mentioned this just now, because there are not many players who can reflect the sense of dialogue. The so-called sense of dialogue refers to noticing who you are talking to during the dubbing process. Considering the tone of the subject based on the object, it makes people feel that even if there is no opposite person, it seems that there is someone who exists." Since Shen Yan showed some things that were not mentioned before, of course Pu Yuzhi didn't mind pointing it out to everyone. "In the process of talking, I felt that your old Xiaoshan was thinking about the mood of the opponent's play while talking, and from your tone, I can guess what kind of person the opponent is."
"The most obvious one should be the dialogue with Bai Ke in the second act. Many people don't seem to know that Bai Ke is inherently inferior and suspicious, especially when he is compared with his peers. So when I heard your handling, there was a sense in front of me. Yiliang thought to himself, 'Oh, it turns out that some people will pay attention to understand Bai Ke's feelings'."
"The best part is the pause after the sentence 'Your junior brother he'. Several players in the front also paused there, but many of them just slowed down their speech and didn't pay attention to lower the pitch. Listen to you lower your voice When I was at the time, I felt that I could even see Bai Ke standing opposite, and heard Master mention the picture of the younger brother's face changing. Your tone change sounds like you feel guilty when you see his face is not good, use a more euphemistic The way to finish the sentence. And the handling of Qin Tuo's first promotion and then restraint is right. Generally speaking, you should first blame the younger apprentice, make the older apprentice feel a little more comfortable, and then mention that the younger apprentice is worthy of his learning. This makes it easier for him to accept it. As for the feeling of a loving father who is worried about the child who is about to go down the mountain... I don't need to say it, I believe everyone can hear it. "
Pu Yuzhi said a long paragraph, and then began to turn the page again, which was very clear and pleasant to Qi Qin's ears.
She muttered to herself as she turned the page: "For player No. 28, it's actually difficult to imitate other people's evaluation of vocal lines, or just evaluation of pronunciation, basic scores, appeal, etc., because they have been complementary and integrated, and lack of one No. I'm more inclined to comment together, so it's settled scene by scene."
As she said, the third act followed.
"The third act on the 28th was the most impressive thing I've heard in today's game - as for why, I think everyone knows, otherwise the on-site turnout would not have exceeded 90%. "
Pu Yuzhi truthfully stated his thoughts. She has been watching the audience's reaction silently, but she has not spoken out until now.
"A character must have emotions in order to survive. However, it is not enough to show such emotions. Whether it can reach the point where the audience can resonate with the audience determines the success or failure of the character. Before I explained 'basic points' and 'infection' Some students don't quite understand the difference between "power". In fact, the "basic score" is to evaluate whether a contestant can express emotions. Of course, this kind of emotional expression may be correct or wrong. On the basis of expressing feelings, did you pull in the listeners, and did you shock them?"
"The reason why correct feelings are needed is because this is in line with psychological logic. Things that do not conform to logic cannot stand scrutiny and will never impress everyone. But 'correct' is not enough to impress others, and 'truth' is also needed." She Take it slow, "A lot of people think that the voice is the most important thing in the dubbing process, and that's true, but the white space is also very important. Before you start talking on the 28th, there is a long gap. At first I also I thought it was a pause between the act and the act change, but the pause was too long, and I suddenly realized that this was expressing the painful feeling of the character who was unable to speak for a long time. When you said the first sentence with difficulty, I more confirmation of that.”
"As for your tone of voice, I have already mentioned a lot, so I don't need to explain them one by one. For all players, the lines are the same, and the prompts are the same. It depends on how everyone seeks changes and joins. I use my own characteristics to make the lines plump and not pale, and these rely on non-line things, such as onomatopoeia, laughter, crying, etc. to assist.”
"In the end, the process of slowly turning from a bitter smile to a choked sob was a line that was not mentioned at all in the script. It was not so prominent because it suddenly became very real after adding these. I have been a teacher for so many years. , Basically you can hear the fake cry and the real cry... I think, you should be really choked up in the latter part. You know, it's amazing that the dubbing actor can enter the character in such a short dubbing time. Things, you can imagine that you have tried to figure out the role you want to play, and you can understand the mood of the character at that time and understand his mood. There is no way to do these things if you don't put your heart and soul into it - you did it."
"Shen Yan," Qi Jin repeated in a low voice next to his ear, "Shen Yan, you heard it. You did it... Really, not only did it but also did it well."
Shen Yan's eyelids moved, and she buried her head, her hands tightly clutching the corner of Qi Jin's clothes.
Qi Jin put his hand on his broad back and gently supported him up: "Come on, stand up."
In a dim room with no lights, the light from the screen is especially precious, but from Shen Yan's point of view, only the shadow cast by himself can always be seen - so Qi Jin wanted him to turn back, no longer turn his back to the light source, and use his Take a good look at what the audience is saying about him.
But before that, Pu Yuzhi, who Qi Qi thought had finished commenting, was surprised again: "Now, let me tell you why I deducted one point from No. 28 contestant."
