457, the actor is born
In late May, halfway through the year, Xiaoxiao handled many things in scattered.
First of all, the drama "Yellow Handkerchief" of the Jin Theater has entered a intensive preparation stage. More than a month ago, Gui Zhiyu handed over the script of the story of the Yellow Handkerchief. Jin Zhonglun was very satisfied and only put forward a few different opinions. After the message communication by Xiaoxiao, the middleman, President Jin and Gui Zhiyu reached an agreement, and soon arranged the songwriter to compose the song based on these lines.
The story and lines are both written by Gui Arrow Feather, and the lyrics in the lines are from the talented girl from Yuan Long Dynasty "Nianxi", which is Xiaoxiao's third sister Tang Shuyan.
Gui Arrow Yu wanted to remain mysterious and was unwilling to disclose his identity, but his friend Nian Xi took all these lightly. It doesn’t matter whether his identity is public or not.
Anyway, this talented woman published a best-selling collection of poems when she was fifteen years old, and many loyal fans knew her identity.
In order to keep the drama authentic, President Jin invited Shu Yan to help his theater select actors, and Shu Yan actually agreed happily.
In her words, it is: "First, I really like this drama, but second, I want to make some private money."
Under Shu Yan's inspection, three candidates for the heroine of this play were born. The appearance, figure and singing skills of these three were amazing, and they were evenly matched for a while.
"Why please Xiaoxiao help me see, she always has an angle different from ordinary people." Shu Yan offered a plan to President Jin.
So, Xiaoxiao was invited to the Jin Cinema as a judge. Xiaoxiao wiped the sweat from her forehead with a veil: "Is Brother Zhonglun going to dominate the summer season? Every time he started a big show, he chose such a hot day."
Jin Zhonglun thinks that the summer vacation is very good: "Anyway, you students are going to have summer vacation."
Today, Shu Yan didn’t have anything to do, so she just watched Xiaoxiao and Jin Zhonglun offstage.
The three actors on the stage demonstrated a singing, a recitation, and a dance. Each of them had a clear mind, and it was obvious that they were practicing boy skills since childhood.
Xiaoxiao couldn't help but walk forward, looking at the three beauties in front of him with heavy makeup on the stage, and suddenly recognized the one standing in the middle as the once actor Zhu Yingtai - President Jin, indeed, still had the habit of using the old man.
"Who Xiaoxiao thinks is more suitable?" Jin Zhonglun asked.
"If you talk about the past few paragraphs, it's all good." Xiaoxiao lowered her head and flipped through the script, "Will they all act in this book?"
"I've all been well-known and I'll sing in various Kim's theaters in the future. Now I just want to find a premiere and point her to make a hit."
Xiaoxiao turned to the second half of the script and found a very explosive crying scene - the heroine mistakenly thought that the hero died in battle, ran to the place where the two of them had fallen in love, and shouted the hero's name in despair.
The male protagonist's name is very common, called "Shaoyong". It is precisely because of this common kindness that makes people feel even more distressed.
When Xiaoxiao heard the first candidate sing the word "Shaoyong" in a trembling sing, he couldn't help but sigh at the actor's skills, but at the same time he felt that his emotions were not fully vented.
So Xiaoxiao shouted a pause: "The three of you don't have to act exactly according to the script's requirements, or even sing according to the prescribed tune. If we make this story real, how do you call your fiancé's name?"
The three of them had different expressions, but they could see that they were thinking, and then they went to the backstage to prepare separately.
"Does Xiaoxiao want to distinguish this drama from Liang Zhu?" Jin Zhonglun quickly understood what Xiaoxiao meant.
"If you want to make new things, you must get rid of the old ones." Xiaoxiao was not sure about the performance of this scene. He just felt that the story of yellow handkerchief was a type that hits the soul and required the actors to grasp the audience's emotions on the stage, so it is not enough to rely solely on singing.
"Okay." Jin Zhonglun opened the folding fan and sang it.
The summer wind blew over, and Xiaoxiao felt it was so hot: "It is not suitable for this kind of open-air place to use ice. How does Brother Zhonglun plan to relieve the heat?"
"I plan to build a huge shade and use ice," said Kim Jong-un. "In addition, some theaters have lake stages, which will be cooler when the water is right."
Xiaoxiao nodded, there were still many limitations in ancient times.
After a while, the three actors were ready and appeared one after another.
This time, no one sang again. Maybe they had a small meeting in the backstage to discuss it, or maybe everyone was very scheming.
The first actor shouted out directly, his voice was far and loud, and he burst into people's hearts one by one, making people sigh.
The second actor is Zhu Yingtai, who did not sing, but she used a crying tone similar to singing, with just the right tremolo, and recited a kind of sadness and despair. If the girl in the audience was in a state of emotion at this moment, she would definitely sing and cry.
The third actor was shocked as soon as he came on stage - his dress was dirty, his hair was a little messy, and his makeup was washed away. Standing on the stage, he was pale without blood.
As soon as she opened her mouth, her voice turned out to be hoarse. It was an effect of only opening her mouth without making a sound. What she made for her voice was expressing her eyes, with despair and reluctance in her eyes, and a hint of disbelief until death. As her mouth opened and closed, tears fell from her eyes.
But in the end, he tried his best to sway his whole body and shouted the male protagonist's name into the darkness. The voice was hoarse, even torn apart, and at the end, it was all turned apart - making people feel that this woman made her last roar before her death, hollowed out herself, and would wander with her in the future.
Kim Jong-lun stood up excitedly, and he himself did not expect that the actor had such tension.
Xiaoxiao also stood up and wiped her wet eyes. She couldn't believe that she could still see such a wonderful performance in Yuanlong Dynasty.
After the actor finished the performance, he bowed to the audience, and his emotions seemed to have not completely turned back.
The other two actors also came on stage, standing side by side on the stage, waiting for pk like a modern talent show.
"Did Brother Zhonglun decide which actor to use?" Xiaoxiao turned his head and asked-I was really not used to being a judge for the first time.
"The last performance touched me, and I believe it will also touch the audience." Jin Zhonglun said and looked at Xiaoxiao, "Is it because Xiaoxiao didn't think so?"
Xiaoxiao just smiled faintly: "Does Mr. Jin want to train an actor or a star this time?"
"What's the difference? Aren't these singers?"
"Naturally different. Actors are interdependent with drama, but stars can be separated from drama." Xiaoxiao remembered that this was what President Jin told him a long time ago.
Now President Jin seems to understand: "What's the difference?"
"Actors are lost in the audience, but celebrities are more glorious than on the stage." Xiaoxiao said and added, "When a good script is not accepted, celebrities can still make money for you."
"In Xiaoxiao's opinion, who are the three of them, who are the actors and who are the stars?"
"First of all, please wash them all off and put on your daily dress. I want to see what they look like." After Xiaoxiao said this, the three actors went to the backstage to wash their faces.
Xiaoxiao then said: "At least that Zhu Yingtai is not a celebrity."
Jin Zhonglun seemed to understand a little, and at this moment he waved his fan: "I hope to hear it carefully."
"It has been a year since Liang Zhu became popular to this day, but this actor has been so low-key that I can't remember her name now," Xiaoxiao sighed with a chuckle, "Being a star, you have to keep a heart that always wants to show off."
"If you train good actors, you can have good shows. But I don't know how to train celebrities?" Kim Jong-lun was full of curiosity about this.
"Celebrities are responsible for beauty, and all the beautiful characters in the play can be found to them. Of course, filming is only a small part of their career. They need to wander in various fields, so that people can see that they like them and pay attention to them at all times and in the end they fall in love with them." Xiaoxiao made a simple summary, "Anyway, it's just to cultivate them into a heartthrob."
Kim Jong-lun smiled and shook his head: "It seems that I not only want to open a theater, but also... a place to create stars."
Xiaoxiao is very satisfied with Jin Zhonglun's sensitivity to the entertainment industry: "Yes, celebrities can endorse many businesses, and those big billboards can draw their portraits. At the same time, in order to increase exposure, they can model some magazine covers or four-season calendars..."
"Model?" Kim Jong-lun grabbed this strange word.
"Anyway, it's the kind of person who provides an image for the public." Xiaoxiao couldn't explain the meaning of the model accurately for a while, "it was like a special template-style character."
"I understand, then I might as well call it a good thing."
"oh……"
Xiaoxiao didn't expect that just a short conversation today, the Yuanlong Dynasty had "like tricks" and quickly developed into a specialized industry. Unfortunately, although these people were loved by the public, their status was still low in ancient times.
The three actors washed away all their hair and walked onto the stage again. Xiaoxiao soon discovered that the first actor was slightly thin, while the other two were plain.
"It seems that there can be a star here." President Jin has basically understood.
Xiaoxiao said again: "Dedicated actors can also have a high reputation, but they need to reduce their appearances and social engagements outside of drama. These things do not need to be distracted by them, and someone is willing to do it for them."
Kim Jong-lun nodded and asked the three actors on the stage: "The next play is about a beggar who is mostly unkempt and ragged. Who would you like to try it? Volunteer, never force it."
The girl with a hoarse voice was the first to express her interest, and then Zhu Yingtai nodded and was willing to act. The first girl with light makeup smiled and said, "The little girl is very willing to give it a try, but she is afraid that she will not act well."
Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Although the appearance of that drama is ugly, Mr. Jin will arrange a very important appearance for everyone. At that time, he will use a large carriage with flowers piled up on it. The leading actors are wearing gorgeous clothes and wandering on several major streets in Kyoto. Now, half of the people in Kyoto will see you."
The light makeup person was the most surprised when he heard this. Zhu Yingtai also looked a little yearning. The girl with the best acting skills performed dullly and even looked a little shy. She didn't seem to want to show up in such an exaggerated way.
Xiaoxiao shrugged: "President Jin knows it in his heart."
Kim Jong-lun thought, "The idea of this float is very good, why didn't you think of it before?"
The form of drama is exaggerated in itself, so its appearance should not be dull. It is best for people to see, remember, and fall in love with it.
This is how the heartthrob should come.
The author has something to say: Grapefruit: On the way back, I was rushing around.
