Yin Chang was taken aback: "What did you say?"
Shao Junling's words touched Yin Chang too much, the key is that the tone of the other party could not tell that it was belittling at all, as if he was stating an objective fact, which made Yin Chang feel an uncontrollable smoldering fire in his chest scurrying around.
— is he stupid? Where are you stupid
—You have a high IQ, but can you look down on ordinary people like your brother if you have a high IQ
—Actors are much less savvy than him. How can he, an entertainer with five years of experience, not be able to play a mere Cao Pi
—Also, what's the matter with this kid? Has he been too used to him all this time? When did this bastard get used to talking to himself with this attitude
…
In fact, Shao Junling admits that his brother has a good eye for choosing books. Although he seldom asks questions, he has watched every movie and TV series Yin Chang made, and several of Yin Chang's are praised as "good acting". He has watched the "good acting" drama more than once.
However, the characters played by Yin Chang in these dramas also happen to have some characteristics that match Yin Chang himself. As long as his brother shows his true self, he will become a shining point in the eyes of the audience. Strictly speaking, that's not acting, but character.
Therefore, Shao Junling does not think that the role of Cao Pi is suitable for Yin Chang—if the drama his brother talked about is a historical drama.
Shao Junling ignored Yin Chang's reaction and asked again, "Have you read the script? What is the story about?"
"Let's just watch a part of the plot of the Three Kingdoms. It's a group portrait drama. It's very exciting..." Yin Chang said vaguely.
Hearing Yin Chang's tone, Shao Junling confirmed in his heart that this book was picked up temporarily by him, and the role was chosen hastily. Because in the past, Yin Chang would read the entire script by himself, and talked with Shao Junling a few times, and he was very clear about his favorite points.
But this time, Yin Chang didn't say much about it. He even chose a drama that would be included in the group for eight months for the first time, just to let himself go abroad with peace of mind.
This kind of behavior that hurts the enemy one thousand and self-damages eight hundred... What is it if it is not stupid
Shao Junling asked: "Being in the group for eight months, will you not get used to it?"
The unhappiness in Yin Chang's heart was slowly diverted with Shao Junling's questioning: "It's okay, it's not like being there for eight months, and occasionally there will be a variety show or something, and Mi Xiu also took over This drama, when the time comes I..."
Shao Junling interrupted him: "Mi Xiu is going too?"
"Yeah." Yin Chang squinted at him, "How many times have I told you, don't be old 'Mi Xiu, Mi Xiu', call him brother Mi Xiu."
Shao Junling: "...what is he playing?"
Yin Chang laughed and said, "Play 'my' younger brother, Cao Zhi, haha."
Shao Junling: "..."
Shao Junling's guess was pretty close. This play was indeed decided by Yin Chang after considering Shao Junling's going abroad.
However, the roles were not chosen hastily. Three months ago, Yin Chang received an invitation for this show, and he also learned very early that Mi Xiu would play "Cao Zhi". At that time, Mi Xiu sent a WeChat message to ask Yin Chang if he was interested in trying it, and joked that if If Yin Chang is willing, the two of them can stage a "love and kill" brotherhood in the play.
Yin Chang didn't take it seriously at that time, because he was worried that he would not get used to it if he had been in the group for too long because the filming time of the drama was too long. Moreover, he hadn't read the history of the Three Kingdoms, and he was busy at that time, so he didn't have time to read the script.
Until half a month ago, I overheard the conversation between Shao Junling and He Hongjun...
In the past few days, not only Shao Junling is hesitating, Yin Chang is also engaged in a battle between heaven and man. He thought a lot, and later felt that Shao Junling's obsession had something to do with their way of getting along in the past few years.
It may be Yin Chang’s psychological shadow left behind by Yin Dong when he was a child. Now that his identity has been changed, he has become a parent and an actor himself. Every job he chooses will consider Shao Junling’s feelings—whether he will leave home for too long? Will Shao Junling worry? Will there be scandals that will have a negative impact on the family? …
He knew that Shao Junling would grow up and leave him to have his own life in the future, but subconsciously, he still treated him like a child and failed to adjust his attitude in time.
Aren't the various conflicts between the two of them in the past year caused by wrong self-positioning
Shao Junling didn't make a decision for a long time, and Yin Chang was also under a lot of pressure, fearing that this kid's inertial thinking.
The day before yesterday, I had a chat with Mi Xiu, and Mi Xiu brought up the drama "Three Kingdoms" again, saying that the show has never found a suitable candidate for the role of "Cao Pi". Don't try it next.
After much deliberation, Yin Chang felt that this was a good opportunity for a change, so he decided to accept this drama.
Sitting there, Shao Junling suddenly lowered his head and read: "Boil the beans for soup, and boil the beans for juice. Osmunda is burning under the cauldron, and the beans are weeping in the cauldron..."
"What?" Yin Chang didn't respond.
Shao Junling looked at him and said, "The poem your 'brother' wrote to you."
"My brother? You mean Cao Zhi?" Yin Chang wondered, "What does this poem mean?"
He received a Western education since he was a child. He can speak four languages, ski and equestrian, but he is not familiar with ancient Chinese history.
Shao Junling said: "Because of his literary talent, Cao Zhi was more favored by Cao Cao than Cao Pi when he was a child. After Cao Cao died of illness, Cao Pi inherited the throne and abolished the Han to stand on his own. It may be because of his father's different treatment since he was a child. Cao Pi felt that his younger brother would threaten his throne and suppressed him everywhere. He, relegated him to live far away. This is not enough. Once, Cao Pi wanted to kill him on the charge of 'rebellion', but at the last moment he was given a chance, and he was limited to compose a song within seven steps. If he is satisfied with the poem, his life will be spared, so this poem is also called "Seven-step Poem". There are two lines behind it-'It is born from the same root, why is it too urgent to fry each other?'It means,' We were originally born to the same mother, why did we kill each other?’ One is to accuse the elder brother of his cruelty, and the other is to beg for mercy to the elder brother in order to survive... This poem is very famous, and we learned it in junior high school.”
"What happened later? Did Cao Pi spare him?" Yin Chang asked anxiously.
"Forgive me, but our Chinese teacher said in class that because Cao Zhi is in fear of being killed by his brother every day, life will be difficult in the future." After Shao Junling finished speaking, he looked at Yin Chang with the eyes of an illiterate, " Brother, your heart is too soft, you can't play Cao Pi."
After Yin Chang finished listening, his whole body was messed up in the wind...
Seeing that he was in a daze, Shao Junling ran to do his own thing.
It took a while for Yin Chang to recover from the heart-wrenching plot.
...Wait, where is Shao Junling? Is this kid going abroad? He hasn't answered himself yet!
Realizing that playing Cao Pi might be different from what he had imagined, Yin Chang hurriedly found time to read the script carefully.
Because it is a historical drama, there is indeed the plot mentioned by Shao Junling. The script is slightly different, but the discrepancy is not too big. Moreover, Cao Pi in the script is more ruthless and cruel, which makes Yin Chang scratch his heart and lungs.
In addition to the script, Yin Chang also made up some relevant history of the Three Kingdoms. Lu Lingjuan accompanied him to catch up on the announcement, and saw Yin Chang complaining about reading materials in the nanny's car every day.
"What's going on with Cao Pi? It's true that Cao Zhi has a crush on Zhen Mi, but Zhen Mi is innocent..."
"Cao Cao is a bit biased, but there is no way, Cao Zhi is more like him..."
"Cao Zhi didn't treat his brother badly, how could Cao Pi take out his anger on him..."
"What? He also framed Cao Pi for being drunk? Why is he so small!"
…
Once, he didn't know what plot he had seen, and he was so abused that he slumped on the chair, and asked Lu Lingjuan weakly: "Jujuan, do you think I can change roles in this book?"
"Ah?" Lu Lingjuan was taken aback, "You, you, you want to change? But we have already signed the contract!"
Yin Chang stared blankly at the front, Shao Junling was right, he might not be able to play Cao Pi...
But, how could Shao Junling know him so well
Lu Lingjuan enlightened him from the side: "Why do you want to change? Do you think it's inappropriate? But when we signed the contract with the show, the director said that he liked you very much, and said that he wanted you to play Cao Pi from the beginning. "
"That's a scene talk," Yin Chang smiled wryly, "every director who wants to work with me will say that, but I know better than anyone else whether I can play this role well..."
"Could it be that you're under too much pressure? There have been a lot more people praising your acting skills recently," Lu Lingjuan paused, then suddenly remembered something, flipped through the bag and said, "By the way, President Yao gave me a movie , said it was a movie made by your father, and it was also about the Three Kingdoms, and told you to take time to watch it."
"My dad acted in a Three Kingdoms movie?" How could Yin Chang not remember.
"It seems that for some special reason, it failed to pass the trial and was not released, so the outside world doesn't know much about it." Lu Lingjuan took out a video tape from his bag and handed it to him.
Yin Chang was curious: "When is this movie?"
Lu Lingjuan: "It seems to be fifteen years ago. Mr. Yao said that the computer format can't be found, only this one."
In the evening, Yin Chang arrived home, had dinner, and it was still early, so he wanted to watch the movie Lu Lingjuan gave.
The video tape had to be played on a special machine, because of Yin Dong’s professional relationship at the time, all kinds of playback equipment at home were relatively complete. Yin Chang found a projector under the TV and stuffed the tape in, but he couldn’t put the tape in after searching for a long time. The machine started successfully.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Shao Junling's voice sounded from behind.
"Why can't this thing be opened?" Yin Chang wondered to himself.
"...Let me see." Shao Junling squatted down, tried the plug, moved the machine out slightly, and said to Yin Chang, "Go to my study, the bottom shelf of the bookshelf, and take a black box."
Yin Chang found the box Shao Junling mentioned in the study with question marks all over his face, walked over and asked, "What is this? It's so heavy?"
"Some basic tools for making robots." Shao Junling explained casually, opened the box, took out the largest screwdriver... and started to disassemble the machine swiftly.
Yin Chang: "..."
Looking at Shao Junling's side face, Yin Chang inexplicably overlapped him with the childish face six years ago, equally focused and serious, but at that time, Shao Junling was fighting Lego...
"It should be that the circuit board is broken." Shao Junling found the source of the problem and said, "If you don't worry, I will take it to the school's studio tomorrow to help you fix it."
"...Okay." Yin Chang originally thought that it would be better to buy a new one directly online, and it will arrive tomorrow, but seeing Shao Junling's performance as "competent", he was also inexplicably looking forward to it.
