Zhang Yuanjun didn't watch "Golden Armor", but he made a special trip to watch "Falling Leaves Return to Their Roots".
He really liked this movie.
But the film schedule was really miserable. At this time, there were almost no theaters in Beijing showing this film.
Zhang Yuanjun specially drove to see the midnight show, and there were only three of him in the entire theater.
Uncle Ben's acting skills are really good.
He doesn't even need to play such a low-level character, he is that character standing there.
Especially those eating scenes, Zhang Yuanjun was really impressed.
His movements are full of fireworks. It can be seen that the uncle in this shirt has really suffered from hunger, otherwise he would not be able to act like that.
To put it bluntly, Zhang Yuanjun grew up in a honeypot. Growing up, he never worried about food and clothing.
When acting in a food scene, unless he went hungry to experience life, he asked himself whether he could act like Zhao Benshan.
He can perform the most common dish of cabbage and tofu in a way that makes the audience salivate and want to try such a meal.
Road movies are a rarely touched subject in domestic films. In Zhang Yuanjun's limited viewing experience, he would like to call "Falling Leaves Return to Roots" the best domestic road movie.
Even if it is Ning Hao's "No Man's Land" and "Heart Blossoms on the Road" later, he prefers "The Fallen Leaves Return to their Roots".
It was almost 2 o'clock after watching the movie, and Zhang Yuanjun went home to rest.
Early the next morning, he came to the theater on time to report.
There is a meeting in the performance center today to arrange the rehearsal tasks for the newcomers after the new year.
Zhang Yuanjun didn't expect to play any big roles. He had to play a minor role for two or three years when he first entered the theater.
Renyi is very good to new actors and will arrange for them to appear in dramas one after another.
This year marks the centenary of Chinese drama. The theater will rehearse many plays, and almost every newcomer can get a role.
"Who do you want to play?" Mao Junjie sat next to him.
"Who do I want to play? If I can choose, I will play Wang Lifa. It depends on how the theater arranges it."
"Yes. I want to play "Ruan Lingyu"."
Pu Cunxin presided over today's arrangements. He first spoke in official terms, which was nothing more than the importance of the centenary anniversary of the drama.
"The theater did a good job recruiting actors last year. Seven outstanding young people entered our big family of people and arts. According to the tradition of the theater, we will rehearse plays for you this year and strive to be your own independent performers as soon as possible. Now let me read your roles.
"Guo Yijun, in "Eastern West House" you will play the Beijing girl, and "Li Bai" will also be scheduled. Is it okay for you to play a dancer? Also, "Camel Xiangzi" will be scheduled for an edition this year, and you will play the Huniu."
Guo Yijun was dumbfounded when she heard that she had just entered the theater and she could actually play Hu Niu!
"Corner B, you will be Xihua's substitute."
Guo Yijun smiled and said, "Teacher Pu, why do you like to breathe heavily when you talk?"
"Hahaha!"
The names of the newcomers were read one by one. Mao Junjie was not able to perform in "Ruan Lingyu" as she wished. "Ruan Lingyu" was not scheduled this year, so she continued to play Bai He in "Eastern and Westinghouse".
Soon we will arrive at Zhang Yuanjun.
Pu Cunxin smiled and said, "I'll arrange a role for you. Do you have the schedule? You're a busy person."
Zhang Yuanjun immediately expressed his loyalty: "There must be time."
"I watched you perform in student dramas when you were still in school. You have a good foundation." Pu Cunxin praised Zhang Yuanjun first, and then said, "I will give you a role in "Camel Xiangzi"."
Zhang Yuanjun's temples jumped a bit, not "Teahouse" but "Camel Xiangzi".
"You play Xiao Shunzi's A role and Xiao Liuzi's B role. Perform well."
This is already a big surprise!
Zhang Yuanjun himself did not expect to encounter such a character less than half a year after coming to the theater.
Although not as good as Guo Yijun's Huniu, he was satisfied.
As soon as Pu Cunxin announced the role of Zhang Yuanjun, there was a buzz of discussion among the newcomers in the audience. The newcomers who had just entered the theater were given the role of Xiao Shunzi in "Luotuo Xiangzi". This is a key training.
In order to dispel the discussion, Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile: "Teacher Pu, how about I give you a kowtow?"
As soon as Zhang Yuanjun said this, everyone laughed.
Pu Cunxin smiled and said: "This is the unified arrangement of the theater. It doesn't matter if you kowtow to me. If you perform well, you are better than anything else."
After arranging the scenes for the newcomers one after another, Pu Cun said in his heart: "You are still young. The future of talent and art is yours. There are no roles, big or small. If you perform every scene well, you must slowly walk to the center of the stage and be the mainstay. Okay, today For now, the theater is still working on the specific performance and rehearsal times, and we will notify you when they are released. Let’s adjourn.”
The most eye-catching person in today's performance is of course Guo Yijun. He played Huniu just six months after entering the theater. Although he is a B character, he is already very good, as if he is cheating.
Fortunately, she attracted fire for Zhang Yuanjun, and she was the one everyone gossiped about after the meeting.
Even Zhang Yuanjun made fun of her: "After all, she is from the China Theater Arts and Humanities Cooperation Class. Our film school students don't have such opportunities."
Guo Yijun smiled and said: "Well, I will play Huniu for you."
"Why don't you bury someone? If I play Hu Niu, Xiangzi will die in my hands early."
"Hahaha!"
The group of people finished talking and laughing and left.
Within two days, Liu Yifei took the initiative to find Zhang Yuanjun on Penguin, mainly to have fun with him:
"I will play "Blind City" and "I Have a Dream" next year."
These two plays are great dramas in the Chinese language.
Could it be that Liu Yifei is really a purple star from heaven? Can you play the leading role as soon as you enter the theater?
"Who are you playing?" Zhang Yuanjun refused to believe it.
"I play Linda (the heroine of "Blind City") and Coretta (Martin Luther King's wife in "I Have a Dream")."
No!
She really managed to pretend that she was the heroine from the very beginning.
"Tell the truth!" Zhang Yuanjun still didn't believe it.
Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Liu Yifei said again: "I just finished the meeting this morning and it was decided that I would play these two roles."
"to be honest!"
"That's the truth."
Zhang Yuanjun sent a crying emoji: "Is there any justice? I only play a minor role, why can you play the heroine! This makes no sense."
When she was almost amused, Liu Yifei said: "Okay, I lied to you."
"Then what exactly are you playing?"
"I'm scheduled to play Linda and Coretta, but I'm the B character, serving as a substitute for Teacher Wang Xiaomei and Teacher Zhou Lin. I will participate in rehearsals, but I probably won't be able to go on stage."
"You have today too!" Zhang Yuanjun mocked on the spot.
"But I really got Xiao Ding Bao from "Teahouse"." Liu Yifei blocked all the words that followed Zhang Yuanjun.
No one cares, no one cares!
Who taught her to talk like this!
Zhang Yuanjun gritted his teeth and typed the next line: "Then you have to prepare for the role well."
"Yeah, I took advantage of the year-end sales and bought a lot of classic literary works. It's a bad idea!" It can be seen that Liu Yifei really wants to play a good role.
That’s fine, it’s better to read more classic literature than chicken soup for the soul.
Chicken Soup Literature has caused her a lot of trouble, and its language is a bit metaphysical and shrouded in mist.
Liu Yifei knows that she doesn't have much ink in her belly. If she wants to play classic roles in classic plays, she has no other way but to constantly enrich herself.
"Don't you have a set of the complete works of Chekhov's plays? Let me read them for two days." Liu Yifei visited Zhang Yuanjun's study last time. In addition to the thin gold thousand-character text on the desk, she also saw a row of classic drama readers. Among them, Chekhov's book is very old, and it seems that he read it often.
"You don't know how to buy it yourself." Zhang Yuanjun has a quirk. He never borrows other people's books, and he never borrows his own books.
But it seems that Liu Yifei doesn't know her own habits.
"Browsing a book is not as good as borrowing it. Haven't you heard that saying? You can't read a book unless you borrow it." He kept repeating the small words.
Zhang Yuanjun wanted to refuse her, but he still said: "Ask your assistant to come to my company to get it tomorrow."
The theater library was full of such reading materials, and she had to borrow someone else's!
Liu Yifei sent an OK gesture.
I will write some content about the drama later, mainly to solve the technical problem of the heroine. My understanding of dialogue drama is limited, so please forgive me for the shortcomings.
