Chapter 187: The Opportunity Is Given, Whether She Can Grasp It Depends on Herself
After handing over the task, Chen Xiao had nothing to do. He opened Weibo on his tablet and glanced at the entertainment list.
I quickly found a title at No. 27: "Ling Yue joins Oriental Media and will appear on "Actors Please Come on Stage" tonight."
After clicking on it, netizens seemed not to be surprised by her poor acting skills and did not criticize her harshly.
The reason why it is on the hot search is because of the contrast.
In the eyes of the public, Oriental Media's association with Chen Xiao means that he is good at acting.
There seems to be a natural contrast between Oriental Media and Dawn Moon.
"Acting skills aside, she's a good actress."
"She is a goddess when she is not performing, but when she is performing she is a disco goddess."
"Looking at the performance list, tonight she will play the scene where her boyfriend is in a car accident. I still remember the scene where she cried and brayed. She has already begun to suffer from the habit of embarrassment."
"How could Oriental Media sign her? I thought the company was full of talented people."
"The best actor is Xiaobao. Xiaobao also has to make money, okay? It's normal to sign an artist."
"I think it's normal, but it's weird. I hope the sisters' behavior tonight won't be related to Xiaobao. I don't want him to be innocently shot."
Seeing the last item, Chen Xiao smiled.
The more you talk about it, the more connected it becomes, right?
But if she can take the initiative, it’s not hopeless, right? Try to teach.
But it’s also strange. If you’re interested in learning, why are your acting skills always so bad?
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao paused.
Minister Zhou’s words come to mind—personality.
The persona given to her by her former company was that of a vase. Minister Zhou also continued this persona, and she was not asked to come to the training at all today.
But after she changed companies, she must have had the idea of changing, so she found an excuse to skip classes.
He didn't know what made her want to change, but since she wanted to change and her image was worth investing in, he was willing to give her a chance. It's up to her whether she can catch it or not.
Ten minutes passed quickly.
"Come from left to right." Chen Xiao sat at the table and pointed to He Xu on the far left, "Start with you."
He Xu stood up a little nervously and walked to the center, "I will perform Ah Fang from "Kung Fu"."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao looked away from the tablet's recording software and glanced at He Xu helplessly.
"Sister, how many times have you directed this role? Do you want to play Afang for the rest of your life? Change the role, and the next person comes first."
"Oh, okay." He Xu nodded, lowered his head and walked back to his seat.
The next person is Dawn Moon.
"Hello, Director Chen, I will perform two short clips. One is a scene where a girl has a crush on a boy, and the other is a scene where the girl sees the boy's car explode."
"good."
Chen Xiao turned the stylus and watched her move the chair to the center of the field.
Others also raised their heads and looked towards the center of the field.
Three minutes later, Dawn Moon's performance ended.
The seven people behind her were as motionless as stone, as if they would break into pieces if they were poked.
Several people couldn't help but lament in their hearts at the same time, have they violated the rules of nature? Why should we see this vicious performance? Sister, are you playing the role of Screaming Chicken? !
Chen Xiao put down the stylus and looked at Liming Yue.
I saw her pinching her fingers with both hands, staring at the ground, nervously waiting for his comment.
Chen Xiao said calmly: "In the first scene, you play the role of a boy who has a crush on you, right? That wooden chair is a boy, right?"
Dawn Moon nodded, "Yes."
Seeing her sighing in relief, Chen Xiao instantly became more sure of his judgment.
Minister Zhou said that she was bullied when she was in school. She was relatively introverted and a bit submissive.
Maybe it was because her former company gave her the character of the vase, and she just accepted it honestly. She was embarrassed to make requests, and she didn't have the courage to make changes, so she settled for the arrangement.
But this is all in the past. Since she is an artist under Oriental Media and has eyes that are very suitable for acting, he can, or is willing to give her a chance to transform.
If you are really talented, don't let it get buried.
Chen Xiao continued to comment: "Secret love is about darkness. Your facial features are too obvious. You have written your love for him on your face, so you might as well confess your love directly."
"I wanted to express the inner drama."
"You should use your five senses to act in inner scenes, or your heart? This part has nothing to do with acting skills. It's just that you don't pay attention and don't embody the character. Have you ever done a biography of a character?"
Liming Yue put her hands behind her back, glanced at Chen Xiao, then moved her gaze back to the ground, and defended: "I heard that biographies... should be written by screenwriters, right?"
"You... graduated in management, no wonder you don't know." Chen Xiao flipped through her resume, raised his head and continued.
"Actors need to create a second time. You are a good actor if you are in a bad drama but it doesn't suck. Just like this secret love story, even if you have never had a crush on anyone else, you can check the mentality of other people who have a crush on boys online and read a lot. Bring it in. Showing your true feelings is the most important thing to you now.”
Liming Yue nodded, "I understand."
Chen Xiao looked at the seven people behind her, and her voice became colder, "Why is the acting skills poor? To put it bluntly, it can only be said in three words, no effort. If you give me a script, as a director, I will spend a lot of time to understand each character. Psychology. As actors, don’t you even bother to understand the psychology of a character?”
After hearing this, four or five of the seven people behind them lowered their heads.
They are also not very good at writing biographies.
Although this is a basic skill for an actor, the more dramas are filmed, the requirements gradually decrease, and over time, no one writes them.
When filming a TV series adapted from a novel, studying famous scenes is an effort that can be shown off.
I have to say that Director Chen is right.
Chen Xiao retracted his gaze and looked at Li Mingyue.
"Let's talk about the second paragraph. When you see the car where the boy is exploded. You..."
This time, Chen Xiao broke down the levels of performance and explained it to her while demonstrating.
"Do you understand?"
Li Mingyue stared at the ground and nodded, "Yes, thank you Director Chen."
"Next."
...
Two hours later, after two sessions of practical comments and free questions and answers, the training ended.
Chen Xiao sat in the training room waiting for Fang Rong to talk to him about "Home with Children".
At the same time, he sent a message to Director Zhou of the Artist Management Department.
"Director Zhou, "Actors Please Come on Stage" will be 16 to 8 tonight, right? Please tell Li Mingyue that if she can get the top three scores tonight, I can assign her a role in my new film. If she needs an acting teacher, arrange a kinder one for her and give her serious guidance."
Chen Xiao did not say what role, wait until she gets the top three, and then decide based on her performance.
He wants to see what level she can reach.
"Actors Please Come On Stage" is divided into different groups. Her group is a group of popular stars competing. If she is willing to work hard and study hard, it is not difficult to get the top three.
Of course, it is not ruled out that there is a script and she is not given the top three.
That doesn't matter. He just wants to see her attitude and whether she is born with performance obstacles. As long as she is not born with acting skills, he is willing to give his actors the opportunity to show themselves.
If you give the opportunity and don't catch it, just be a vase.
