You Made Me a Superstar

   Chapter 141 The role of the human doctor

  Christian is a middle-aged director in his forties. He wears a suit and bears a beard. He sits on a chair with a slightly hunched back, smoking a cigar and looking at Zhou Yang.

After the film "April on Earth" won the Palme d'Or in Cannes, France, he neither attended the celebration banquet nor interviewed any reporters, but after handing the Palme d'Or to his assistant, he took the script and came to Zhou Yang was waiting in Huang Jiacheng's room.

   Since the premiere of "The Bottom of the Mine", Charlotte Sally, the president of the 56th Berlin International Film Festival, has been recommending "The Bottom of the Mine" everywhere to help sell films, and Christian is naturally among the recommended ones.

Christian watched "The Bottom of the Mine". From his critical perspective, "The Bottom of the Mine" was very immature, with many loopholes in the technique and lack of tension on the actor level. There was such a trace of acting in it. Many people's acting skills are quite jerky, but on the whole, "The Bottom of the Mine" is indeed a very ironic realistic documentary film.

   Christian didn't care at the time, and later, at the premiere of The Raven, he watched The Raven again.

   He actually didn't like this movie, it was gloomy and depressing, and the overall plot lacked a sense of sublimation. The whole story reflected the darkness of an era, making the movie look a bit ugly as a whole, and lacked a sense of integrity...

   But not without surprises.

When Huang Degui played by Zhou Yang appeared, Christian discovered that the young and astringent supporting role in "The Bottom of the Mine" could actually perform the taste of middle-aged people across ages. Although it was still jerky, the performance was very tense and very enjoyable. , even a picky person like him thinks that this young man has a bright future.

   On the red carpet at Cannes, he finally saw this young man.

   made his eyes light up.

   Huang Degui in the movie and Zhou Yang in reality, both in appearance and temperament, have an astonishing difference, almost a schizophrenic difference!

   This made him see a possibility from Zhou Yang...

  Before the Cannes awards show, he had been wondering if his role as the graceful, personable cannibal doctor in his Lamb would be something the young man could try.

Once the idea of ​​   appeared, it was almost impossible to restrain him. He was eager to chat with this young man...

   "April on Earth" won the Palme d'Or.

  After winning...

  Christian was not excited or happy, but finished his acceptance speech calmly.

   He is a frequent visitor to Cannes. Although he won the Palme d'Or for the first time, he is not really interested in the film "April on Earth".

  From seeing the script to the completion of the filming, Christian filmed with a feeling of irritability and depression, and several times he didn’t even want to shoot.

The film reflects a Romanian abortion story. In essence, Christian feels that "April in the World" has the same problem as "The Raven". But it’s not addicting. The reason why I made this movie was made under the begging of my screenwriter friend.

   He likes that kind of crime-themed movies, and prefers the realism in that kind of **** excitement, especially exploring the twisted spiritual world of a person, and then in the twisted story, he becomes a demon in human skin...

   He doesn't deny that his psychology is perverted, but it doesn't matter, he likes it!

   He has been preparing the film "Lamb" for five years!

   For five years, he has been perfecting and preparing the film, and each scene of the film has formed a specific image in his mind...

  Every character, every shooting scene, and even what to shoot every second, he clearly decomposes it!

Then……

   All the actors are almost ready, and there is only one villain!

   His requirements for the protagonist are not high, and the requirements for the heroine are even less, and the villain is the one who really requires high...

first!

This villain is morbid deep in his heart, morbidity is not a perversion, not a mental illness, but a sense of division that comes from the depths of his soul, but he needs to be very elegant on the surface, looks personable, likes reading books, likes Symphony, likes to walk, like an elegant gentleman aristocrat...

   At first he positioned the candidate as an Englishman.

In five years, he has come into contact with countless outstanding British actors. However, they are either too gentlemanly when performing, or they are too morbid, they are acting according to the script, and they lack the soul that a character should have. After looking for a long time, he finally regrettably changed the British positioning to the French...

The French advocate romance, have literary qualities, have a humorous style and a personable temperament. It should be possible, but after really getting in touch with them, he found that French people are inherently wandering and wandering, and at the same time, they can't hide their unrestrained and unrestrained spirit. a sense of mystery...

   After the ideas were shattered one by one, Christian finally stopped being obsessed with European whites, and even once thought of using blacks to try...

   But unfortunately, every time he waited with hope, he finally ushered in disappointment again and again. Five years have passed.

  …………………………

   Zhou Yang couldn't understand the script of "Lamb".

  The script is in pure English, which is very unfriendly to him.

   It was only after Huang Jiacheng called a translator that he barely understood the script outline of "Lamb"...

After reading   , Zhou Yang was silent.

  When he was in college, he once watched a movie called "Red Dragon". After watching "Red Dragon", Zhou Yang went to watch "Silence of the Lambs", and then watched the prequel...

   Zhou Yang's memory is not very good. Zhou Yang has almost forgotten the plots of the two movies in the world. The only thing that impressed Zhou Yang the most was the personable and polite old man.

   He remembered that the actor was named Anthony Hopkins, who was a very powerful actor in the original world.

  Christian's "Lamb" is similar to the character in that "Red Dragon", both of which are cannibal doctors.

The only difference is that Hannibal in "Red Dragon" is a psychiatrist, while the doctor in Christian's "Lamb" is a respected anatomist.

   "How is it?" Huang Jiacheng asked subconsciously when he saw that Zhou Yang was no longer reading the script.

   "Is the role that Director Christian asked me to try is this cannibal doctor named Franks?" Zhou Yang looked at Huang Jiacheng and then glanced at Christian again.

   "Yes." Huang Jiacheng nodded.

   "It's very difficult, I shouldn't, let's find someone else." The image of Hannibal played by Anthony Hopkins flashed in Zhou Yang's mind, and Zhou Yang finally shook his head.

He is a newcomer who has just entered the industry for less than a year. He can play Huang Degui well because there are many such characters around him. He immerses himself very quickly and imitates very quickly. However, let him play a character similar to Hannibal. , Zhou Yang can't do it at all.

   That requires an innate aristocratic atmosphere, a noble temperament from the inside out.

   Zhou Yang has seen very few elegant people in his previous life and in this life, and he is even very unfamiliar with terms such as "noble", how can he act?

  Imagination?

  No, the only thing you can imagine is to kill the nobles of Matt!

   Thinking of killing Matt, Zhou Yang suddenly felt cold all over his body.

   "Don't try to challenge it? The role is well played. With Christian's energy, it is no problem for you to win a personal award..." Huang Jiacheng smiled.

   "No, no, it's too ridiculous..." Zhou Yang continued to shake his head, naturally he knew how much he weighed.

"Fine!"

in the room.

   Huang Jiacheng asked the translator to translate Zhou Yang's meaning to Christian.

After listening to   Christian, although he knew that the result was probably the same, he still had some indescribable disappointment in his heart.

   However, after looking at Zhou Yang's image, Christian was quite unwilling.

   He thinks that Zhou Yang's temperament still fits a little, at least a little more suitable than the black brother he saw before...

   And the fact that the Louis Vuitton brand invited Zhou Yang seems to show that Zhou Yang is indeed excellent in all aspects!

"Mr. Zhou, what do you think of the role of Franks? If you are not allowed to read the script, how about you just explain the role?" Christian didn't want to miss anyone who was suitable. While regretful, he still asked the question. this problem.

   When the translator threw this question to Zhou Yang, Zhou Yang touched his hand and asked, "Which aspect is it specifically?"

   "Do you think Franks is a pervert?"

"From the perspective of a bystander, Franks is a pervert, but from his own point of view, Franks should be a normal person, and the real sickness should be this world..." Zhou Yang sat on the chair, After pondering for a long time, I recalled the image of Hannibal in my mind, and recalled the fragmentary plots of "Red Dragon", combined with a post from a netizen who commented on the character of Hannibal deep in his memory, Zhou Yang replied.

   "Oh? Go on, what kind of person do you think Franks is?" Christian rarely heard anyone answering this way, and he suddenly became interested.

   "Can I just say anything?" Zhou Yang hesitated.

   "Yes!" Christian nodded.

"I think he's missing something deep in his heart. Well, how should I put it, I thought of a vague plot, that is, a normal teenager who was displaced by the war with his sister and finally witnessed a group of soldiers starving , divided his sister... He saw sin at a young age, and countless emotions washed his soul, causing a subtle change in his young mind..." Zhou Yang closed his eyes.

   He tried hard to recall the plot he remembered, and then in his memory, he told the story in his heart bit by bit.

not far away.

  Christian's smiling face turned serious in an instant, and he put down his cigar silently.
