Chapter 1046: Blocking the door? The acting skills of comedians... Dimensional strike! Good news from the Cannes International Film Festival!
"Wow, Xixi, you don't know, the food is just not good! And I did a lot of work after I went there!
I didn't eat breakfast, I didn't eat lunch, and I only had one dinner to eat. Then Huang Lei started preparing the food in the morning and didn't finish it until the evening. I was almost crying with hunger!
If my assistant hadn't brought a bucket of instant noodles, I felt like I was going to die in that mushroom house. I would never go there again. I regret it so much, woo woo woo woo..."
In the hotel, after recording "Longing for Life", Shu Chang immediately called Liu Yifei on video, and frantically complained about the various outrageous operations of this variety show.
Liu Yifei looked at her bestie with a distressed face and comforted her softly.
And Chen Fei, who was sitting next to him, had already bent over with his hands on his stomach and laughed so hard that he almost rolled on the ground!
"How is it? This time you finally understand what a reality show is, right? Hahahahaha..."
"Ahhh! I'm already so miserable! And you're still laughing at me!"
On the other end of the video call, Shu Chang glared at Chen Fei with vicious eyes.
She was not in front of him now, but if they were in the same room, she would have rushed over and bit him!
"Hahahaha!"
The angrier she was, the more Chen Fei wanted to laugh.
Even though Miss Liu had kicked him several times, he just couldn't stop.
"Okay, okay! You like to laugh at me so much, right? You wait and see, when you get married, I will never let you in! I will make you scream outside the door and no one will answer! Humph!"
The call was cut off directly, and Chen Fei's laughter stopped abruptly.
"She just said she wouldn't let me in?"
"Hmm." Liu Yifei shrugged and said with a smile: "Who told you to laugh at her? Look, you're in big trouble now!"
"No way?" Chen Fei was a little panicked: "Can she still stop me from getting married?"
"Who knows? You'd better take care of yourself. Changchang and Jianu are both bridesmaids. You've offended them now. Don't blame me when you can't get in!"
"Is it too late for me to beg for mercy now?" Chen Fei showed some hope on his face.
"I feel like there may be no hope."

"This morning, the comedy film "Ancestors 19th Generation" produced by Deyun Club was officially announced.
The film is directed by the famous crosstalk actor Guo Degang and starred by his apprentice Yue Yunpeng. At the same time, 33 big stars such as Wu Jing, Wu Xiubo, Jing Boran, Lin Zhiling, and Fan Bingbing were invited to join. The lineup is luxurious and star-studded!"
"At the project launch conference, Wang Hui, president of Deyun Club, said: "Ancestors 19th Generation" will unfold a series of exciting stories around family inheritance, and through fantasy elements and comedy techniques, let the audience feel in laughter. Influenced by the charm of Chinese culture. "
"It is reported that the film tells the story of Bei Xiaobei, a fat boy who aspires to become a writer. Due to his appearance, he repeatedly hits a wall in reality. Later, he accidentally finds a long-forgotten family tree, accidentally travels to different eras to meet his ancestors, and personally adjusts his own genes. "
"Guo Degang frankly said that he hopes everyone likes it for the first time as a director, but he doesn't care about the future box office. Thunder and rain are all God's grace. He just wants to make a movie that the whole family can watch together. "
"..."
A new day has arrived. The long-silent Deyun Club has directly overturned the domestic entertainment industry, attracting huge popularity and traffic!
When the movie name "Ancestors 19 Generations" and 33 big stars appeared at the project launch conference, the attention of netizens across the country was successfully attracted!
"Wow? This lineup is so exaggerated? 33 big stars joining? That's something!"
"Tsk tsk, Lao Guo is using all his connections? He wants to promote Yue Yunpeng, the top star of Deyun?"
"'19th Generation of Ancestors'? Judging from the name and subject matter, it seems quite interesting, but I don't know how the quality of the film will be?"
"The last scene that caused such a sensation seemed to be the launch conference of 'The Pancake Man'?"
"Fuck! Lao Guo took control of such a big scene for the first time as a director. Is it possible? Don't make another copy of 'The Pancake Man'."
"..."
At this time, on the Feiyue Film and Television side, Lu Yang, who was in the audition room, was looking through the hot search news on the Internet and curled his lips in disdain.
"Haha, I'm afraid it's going to be another big-ticket operation. Are crosstalk artists starting to make movies? Has the threshold for the film industry been lowered to this level?"
As he was muttering, the door of the audition room was suddenly pushed open, and the assistant led someone in.
"Director Lu, Xiao Yang is here for the audition."
"Okay, come in."
Lu Yang stood up and smiled faintly at Xiao Yang who was following behind the assistant.
Lu Yang himself had no objection to the fact that an actor who became famous through comedy movies came to audition for a serious drama.
Because in his opinion, comedy is much more difficult to act than other types of movies!
And actors who can act well in comedy can usually do it easily when acting in other types of movies.
Just like Wang Baoqiang.
If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, who would dare to believe it? "Hello!" The male protagonist "Shu" in "Mr. Tree" is actually the same character as the male protagonist "Tang Ren" in "Detective Chinatown"! ?
Based on this, he understood Xiao Yang's behavior of coming to audition for "Manslaughter" very well.
"Director Lu, should I start directly? Or should I introduce myself first?"
"Haha, no need, I have your information here."
Looking at Xiao Yang's serious look, Lu Yang still felt that something was a bit off. After all, the characters he played in "Tang Detective 1" and "Tang Detective 2" were so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
And this also means that if he wants to perform "Manslaughter" well, he needs to put in at least twice as much effort as others!
~
Xiao Yang had actually made full preparations before coming to the audition.
He first conducted an in-depth study of the character script used for the audition and the Indian movie "Manslaughter", and conducted an in-depth analysis of the character, background, emotions and behavioral logic of the male lead Li Weijie.
In order to get closer to the character, he also referred to other similar characters or movies to find inspiration for his performance.
In addition, he even made physical and psychological preparations and deliberately adjusted his body shape to make himself more in line with the image of an ordinary middle-aged father.
With Lu Yang's word "start", he directly launched the non-physical performance technique.
He first took a few steps back, sat on the sofa in the room, "picked up" the phone with a solemn expression, and saw the text message from his daughter An An: "Dad, I killed someone!"
The next second, his expression turned into shock!
But then, he took a deep breath and tried to stay calm: "An'an, calm down and tell me what happened?"
In this non-physical dialogue, Xiao Yang successfully conveyed the character's inner shock and worry through his eyes and tone of voice.
Next, he performed the scene of Li Weijie destroying evidence.
“Dong dong dong!!!”
Suddenly there was a burst of hasty footsteps in the audition room.
Xiao Yang walked into the garage and opened Sucha's cell phone. Although his hands were shaking, he still said to delete the video: "We must not let anyone know about this, otherwise our family will be destroyed."
Through delicate movements and expressions, he successfully showed the character's wit and calmness when facing difficulties, and at the same time created a series of alibi...
In order to better demonstrate the character's personality, he even specially prepared an improvisational performance.
Through delicate expressions and movements, he vividly demonstrated the character's nervousness and wit when facing police interrogation, as well as his tenderness and care when facing his family.
Lu Yang was even a little moved, because he seemed to really see the image of a father who was struggling in difficult situations but never gave up hope.
And the most important thing is that during the audition process, Xiao Yang also showed his excellent line skills.
With a firm and powerful voice, he pronounced the character's lines sonorously and forcefully, as if every word contained infinite power.
The voice contained both affectionate calls for family members, as well as anger and ridicule towards enemies. Lu Yang and several other audition directors in the audition felt the firmness and unyielding character of the character!
"No matter who it is, no one is allowed to hurt my family!"
As the last line was spoken, the audition room fell into a state of dead silence.
It wasn't until Xiao Yang bent down and bowed, indicating that his audition was over, that everyone suddenly realized.
"good!"
Lu Yang was the first to applaud and stood up to give applause full of recognition.
Only then did he finally understand why comedians would cause a dimensionality reduction attack on ordinary actors when they perform in a drama.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
When transitioning to acting in dramas, they faced great challenges and difficulties. In order to get rid of the audience's inherent impression of them and reshape a new character image, they worked harder to study the characters and scripts and constantly improve their performance level.
Because of this, when comedians successfully transition into acting in dramas, their performances are often more brilliant and stunning!
This was the case with Xiao Yang in front of him.
It's obvious that he worked many times harder than other actors during the audition! The performance also highlights the various essences of the character "Li Weijie".
On the surface, he is actually an ordinary father, but he is also full of wisdom!
When facing police interrogation and investigation, he showed extremely high wit and bravery; he was able to quickly analyze the situation, find loopholes, and use the other party's weaknesses to fight back.
He is also a person who is good at observing and imitating; this can be seen from his ability to draw inspiration from movies, news and daily life and integrate these elements into his own "exoneration" plan.
Xiao Yang successfully demonstrated all these characteristics in the previous audition performance session.
This is all a testament to the amount of preparation and effort he put in leading up to the audition.
Thinking of this, Lu Yang immediately said: "Xiao Yang, your performance is excellent, especially your deep understanding of the character, especially in terms of handling emotions and details, which surprised me very much!
However, I think you can go deeper in some places. For example, in the conversation with Officer La Yun, you can highlight Li Weijie's wit and calmness more. "
Xiao Yang nodded seriously when he heard this: "I have learned a lesson."
"Congratulations! You passed this audition!"
Perhaps because of his "happy to see the hunter" mentality, Lu Yang was no longer interested in watching other actors' second auditions, so he decided on Xiao Yang directly.
He was not worried that he would miss out on other better actors, because he already knew the performance of the other actors in the previous round of auditions.
Maybe some people are much more famous, popular, popular, and famous than Xiao Yang, but in terms of acting skills, Xiao Yang is way ahead of them!
"Thank you, Director Lu, for your recognition. Thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to challenge the role of 'Li Weijie'!"
Xiao Yang's face was full of gratitude.
He really didn't expect that this audition would go so smoothly.
He couldn't hide his excitement when he thought that he could challenge other non-comedy roles!
"By the way, I read in the information that you are still a director, right?"
"Hmm, I directed a movie called "Crossing the Dragon" before, but unfortunately it didn't do well at the box office." At this point, Xiao Yang scratched his head in embarrassment.
"It just so happens that you will be the assistant director of "Manslaughter" to assist me in the filming and save me from having to find other people. How about it?"
"Okay! It's totally fine with me!"
Xiao Yang couldn't find any excuse to refuse this kind of double happiness.
It's a rare opportunity to learn. If you miss it, wouldn't the smoke on the ancestral graves be in vain?

19, 20, 21…
Three days passed by in a flash!
The auditions for "Manslaughter" have come to an end, and at this time, the domestic theater market has also welcomed a large number of new domestic films.
"Blood Wolf Dog", "Mysterious Family", "Dou E's Strange Injustice", "Love and Sound"...
Looking around, there are quite a few newly released movies, but unfortunately only a few of them are blockbuster hits.
Facing the box office performance of "Fast 8" which has exceeded 2 billion, many domestic films simply cannot stand out.
The only good news now is that the May Day schedule is coming soon.
"Like You", "Bomb Disposal Expert", "Memory Master", "Chun Jiao Saves Zhiming"... these movies still seem to have quite potential, after all, they all star big-name actors.
However, according to colleagues in the industry, these blockbusters may not last long.
Because after they are successfully released, imported blockbusters such as "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" and "Alien Awakening" will be released again!
In comparison, TV dramas are more stable.
"In the Name of the People" still ranks first in the ratings, followed by many popular dramas such as "The Chosen Day" and "Surgery".
I have to say that the traffic of young actors is huge!
Even though his acting skills are terrible, "The Chosen One" still ranks first among weekly dramas in ratings, and it also achieved Mango TV's best performance in the past 20 months.
Since its launch, the average weekly ratings of "Zhi Tian Ji" have been stable at around 1.2%, and the online broadcast volume exceeded the 2 billion mark in 96 hours. The traffic is extremely high!
In comparison, "Surgery" starring Jin Dong and Bai Baihe was more unlucky.
Affected by the cheating of the female lead, the show's opening ratings were very low. On the first day of broadcast, the CSM52 city ratings were only 0.7%, ranking fifth.
And so far, the show has been released for almost a week, but the ratings on Capital TV and Zhejiang TV are still fixed at around 0.5%, with no significant improvement.
Mango Channel has made a big loss this time!
The TV series bought at a high price not only failed to achieve great ratings, but also became difficult to attract investment due to the influence of the female lead...
After this wave of twists and turns, I am afraid that even the noon sunshine will be in trouble!
"There's nothing wrong with the actors we're working with, right?"
Seeing the tragic situation of "Surgery", Su Guohai quickly called Jiang Xuerou over and paid special attention to the two dramas "You Are My Glory" and "Sweet Honey as Ashes as Frost".
"Mr. Su, don't worry, there are no problems with the two dramas produced by our company, and the post-production and promotion are going very smoothly..."
"That's good." Su Guohai secretly breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "I heard that the TV department has recently launched a new project?"
"Yes, in addition to "Si Teng" which is currently in preparation, we have also launched the costume historical drama "The Ming Dynasty". The screenwriting department is currently revising the second half of the script, and it should be finalized in another month."
"Okay." Su Guohai smiled knowingly and murmured secretly in his heart: "2018? 2019? Feiyue Film and Television is still proud of the rest!"
…
After a night, the time came to the 23rd.
Just as various film and television companies in the domestic entertainment industry were adjusting their own projects, seeking the best schedule, and looking for suitable partners, a piece of news from the Cannes International Film Festival suddenly spread back to the country.
This piece of news was like a meteorite falling from the sky, hitting the Chinese film industry directly on the head. Everyone in the industry suddenly widened their eyes with disbelief on their faces!
"Reprinted from the latest announcement of the 70th Cannes International Film Festival:
