Entertainment: I can refine my acting skills every day

Chapter 58 057. The actor’s body belongs to the character!

Su Chen is dressed in a suit. Although he looks outstanding, he still feels a little uneasy when standing in front of director Peter Chan.

He had never felt this way in front of Chen Kaige, who was also a famous director. At that time, Su Chen knew that in the crew of "Mei Lanfang", his role was nothing more than a small role, and he was only called a certain person in the script.

Dan angle.

He doesn't even deserve a name.

But now in front of Chen Kexin, it is very likely that I can win a very eye-catching role.

The goals are different, so the mood is naturally different.

"I can."

Su Chen nodded.

As an actor, you have to be able to do a little bit of everything. Not to mention proficiency, at least you have to show off your moves to make the audience believe that you really know it.

Although he nodded on the surface, in fact, Su Chen was not very good at it.

Four years ago, when she took the acting exam, she passed the first test. When she entered the film school for the second test, she needed to take a physical test. Su Chen used a set of martial arts skills that everyone knows to pass the test.

What he said would be to rush the ducks to the shelves!

Chen Kexin looked at Su Chen's expression: "Are you really good at martial arts?"

"Director, I'm a little good at it, but I definitely need some special improvement."

Su Chen's attitude was very sincere and serious: "I have an advantage, that is, I am a new actor. I have no other chores or other film appointments."

"I would be honored to get a role in this drama."

"Then all my time from now on will be dedicated to serving this role."

Just as he was talking, a middle-aged and elderly man about the same age as Chen Kexin, but with short hair and not a lot of hair, walked in from the door.

He was wearing a leather jacket, his shoes were a little dirty, and his clothes were dusty.

After entering the room and seeing Su Chen, the old man was a little surprised and spoke in strong Xiangjiang Mandarin.

"Is this the newcomer who came to audition today?"

"The image is pretty good."

Chen Kexin nodded and stood up: "Let me introduce, I am not the director of this play, I am the producer. Director Chen Desen is the chief director of this play."

Su Chen immediately bowed slightly to the director.

How could he not know Chen Desen?

He will be the chief director of "One Man's Martial Arts" six years later!

The famous Feng Yuxiu was a figure who came out under the guidance of Chen Desen.

"Hello, Director Chen."

"Okay, okay, it's okay. Sit down and talk. Sit down and talk."

Chen Desen put his backpack on the chair and sat down next to Chen Kexin.

"The roles haven't been decided yet. What role do you think you are suitable for?"

After asking this question, he suddenly remembered that Su Chen might not have even read the script.

Unlike low-budget movies, movies with relatively large investment such as "October Siege" generally do not give scripts to audition actors.

Impossible.

Even if you are a star, I will only send you a character plot at most, but not the entire script.

Unless you are a star and have a very important role in the movie.

Otherwise, it would be a fantasy to ask you to read the script before the role has been decided.

"Well……"

Chen Desen stared at Su Chen and hesitated.

A few days ago, he and Chen Kexin met with Zhao Qingren, and the investment amount was quickly settled.

Moreover, as a request, the woman said that there was an actor from her company who must play a role.

Of course, that woman came back from abroad, and people made it very clear.

We will never interfere with the director's creation, so we don't assign roles, but let the actors try out the roles themselves.

Chen Kexin and Chen Desen decided the weight of this role.

"Zi Dan's side has already decided, and Hu Jun's side is adjusting the schedule, so it's almost settled."

"Basically, all the possible roles have been decided."

Chen Kexin took out the list just now and showed it to Chen Desen. The two of them looked at the list and then at Su Chen, who seemed a little helpless.

a long time.

Chen Desen seemed to have decided something.

"Well, you just said you knew martial arts."

Su Chen nodded.

He was also nervous inside. Although he said he would, he was a little panicked in his heart. After all, he only said yes to get the role.

I'm afraid there will be emergency training next.

"Our drama will start filming, probably in the middle of next month. We don't have much time. If you don't know martial arts, you can tell us in advance."

Su Chen did the math, and if he started shooting in the middle of the month, he should have about twenty days left.

You should be able to sharpen your weapon in battle.

"I have a character named Liu Yubai. Your image fits this character better."

"But I still don't know what it will be like when you become decadent..."

Chen Desen speaks with an obvious Hong Kong and Taiwanese accent, which is far worse than Chen Kexin's Mandarin.

"In the film, Liu Yubai is a very eye-catching character."

"My original plan was to find Li Ming or Zhao Wenzhuo, and I am currently making appointments with them. If you can't get this role, other roles may not be suitable for you."

Su Chen nodded, his heart beating faster.

In his memory, the Liu Yubai played by Liming was indeed deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

"And in terms of age, you are not very suitable, so I am even more unsure whether you can perform the vicissitudes of this role."

"In the script, this rich kid named Liu Yubai will eventually become a beggar."

"Although Liu Yubai was a very small person during the Republic of China, although he was a small person, he also had the sadness and persistence of a small person."

"But if you want to say that he is a complete nobody, you are not. After all, he is still the last military champion in the Qing Dynasty."

Chen Desen frowned: "With your age, I'm not sure you can express these complex elements."

"Of course."

He spread his hands:

"I don't want to fool Ms. Zhao. She has injected capital and I promised you a role. But if I only give you a marginal supporting role, then I won't be able to explain to her. You know what I mean."

Hearing Chen Desen speak so plainly, Su Chen not only didn't feel uncomfortable, but felt that he was very aboveboard.

"Director, I understand."

"Thank you for giving me this opportunity."

Su Chen knew that this opportunity was hard to come by, and he must try his best to fight for it, even if his opponents were two big-shot figures.

Just two months ago, Li Ming was the protagonist of "Mei Lanfang". At that time, Su Chen could only play Mei Lanfang's imitator in the play, an ordinary female lead.

But because of Zhao Qing, Su Chen was able to have the opportunity to compete with Li Ming for the same role two months later.

The only advantage Su Chen currently has is that he cherishes this role more than Li Ming.

"I understand all the issues you are considering."

"If possible, I can try my best to capture the inspiration of this character before Teacher Liming has confirmed the schedule."

"Just now you weren't sure whether I could play the role of a little person and a former rich man."

"Director Chen, can you give me three minutes?"

"I'm going to the bathroom."

"Wait for me to adjust my condition and come out and take a look again?"

Chen Kexin looked at Su Chen curiously. In fact, he had already wanted to reject Su Chen just now.

However, he still likes the serious attitude of just listening to the other person talking and not saying anything else.

"OK, no problem."

Chen Desen nodded.

As a director, his first choice is of course to hope that a star will play his role. However, if a newcomer can play the role to his satisfaction, then there will be no problem with the newcomer.

The role of Liu Yubai is not a starring role. The reason why he considered Lai Ming was just because ten years ago, he wanted Leslie Cheung to play this role.

Now that Leslie Cheung is no longer here, Liming is the first choice that pops up in his mind.

…

Suchen walked into the bathroom.

He took a deep breath.

I knew that in the upcoming audition session, if I imitated the scenes of Dawn's performance in Memory, I would definitely not be able to do it.

How is it possible to play Li Ming and perform better than Li Ming?

Therefore, Leslie Cheung's charm is what he should show next.

Take a deep breath, then take off your outer suit and put it on the sink.

He picked up the bath towel that was used to rest his feet on the ground and put it on his shoulders.

When he was studying acting before, Huang Lei said that as an actor, he should be able to use all the props available around him to increase his role and sense of immersion.

Huang Lei also said that when an actor performs, his body does not belong to him, but to the character and the play.

I can't wear trousers either, so I took them off.

I also took off my leather shoes.

His face was too clean, so Su Chen picked up the soles of his leather shoes, rubbed some dust on them, and applied dirty makeup on his face.

…

Time passes minute by minute.

Chen Kexin and Chen Desen looked at each other and listened to the movement in the bathroom.

The room was very quiet.

Occasionally, one or two honks from vehicles downstairs passed through the window of the room, transmitting a faint sound.

The shower in the bathroom seemed to have been turned on.

After a while, the hair dryer buzzed again.

"What is he doing?" (What is he doing?)
