After reading this information, Li Yi suddenly thought of arranging a special audition for these children.
This time, the acting skills will not be tested. In fact, Li Yi has seen clips of these child actors' performances.
These child stars who have become famous in Hollywood all have very good acting skills, or in other words, their talents are very good.
Therefore, he thought about the issue of "sense of substitution".
If they live a happy life, if they do not lack maternal love, then what they perform is just acting.
Of course, this is a bit nonsense, but Li Yi still wants to give it a try.
At the same time, it can be regarded as satisfying my curiosity.
Movies are the art of dreaming, but this time Li Yi wanted to create a dream for children who lack maternal love.
Of course, this is nonsense, but if possible, it would be a good thing, right?
After all, "Artificial Intelligence" puts aside the robot factor and is just a story about a child longing for maternal love.
Therefore, no matter which actor you choose to play the role, you must spend some time with Wen Qing, who plays the heroine, to cultivate the relationship between mother and child.
Family love is difficult to transfer. If the actors themselves live a happy life and can always feel the feeling of being pampered by their parents, then if they can perform, it is just "acting". However, if they lack maternal love and long for maternal love for their children, then Li Yi I believe that if she gets along with Wen Qing, she might be able to truly give her a short period of "motherly love"!
Then when filming, acting is more than just acting!
Li Yi brought Wen Qing with him for the audition. After all, this role will be with Wen Qing's mother and son in the future!
The first person to audition was Stephen Carr.
"Hi, I'm Stephen Carr. I'm seven years old this year. The role I'm auditioning for is David!" Stephen Carr is obviously very familiar with the audition process.
"Hi, Stephen, hello! Today's audition is quite special. Well, I will ask you a few questions later. Just answer them truthfully, okay?" Li Yi said with a smile.
"OK!" Stephen Carl nodded.
I have to say that Stephen Carr, who could become a child actor, does look very likable.
The eyes are very clever.
"Do you think you are happy?" Li Yi asked with a smile.
Stephen Carl was a little confused. He didn't understand why Li Yi would ask such a question.
"Of course, I'm very happy!" However, Stephen Carr still nodded and said with a smile.
"Can you tell me a few happy things about being with your mother?" Li Yi thought for a while and asked.
"Every time after filming, my mother will grant me a wish, such as taking me to the amusement park, or treating me to banana split ice cream, or..." Stephen Carr said happily one by one. .
Li Yi and Wen Qing were both a little surprised.
In fact, the world of children is really quite simple. Although the outside media and public opinion have many negative comments about Stephen Carr's mother, saying that she only used her children to make money and squandered all the money she earned from filming.
That she was an alcoholic, that she was on drugs, etc., etc.
But Li Yi could see that Stephen Carl was indeed very happy when he said those happy things.
And Li Yi can also imagine that for Stephen Carl, his mother is willing to do this for him, even if the purpose is not pure, but at least he is happy.
you are not a fish, how to know the joy of fish?
Maybe in the future, he can no longer make money, and maybe his mother's attitude will change, but at least he is really happy.
Therefore, you cannot just look at the surface of anything.
Who would have thought that Stephen Carl's mother, who was criticized by so many people and had so many shortcomings, was actually a mother who loved him very much in Stephen Carl's eyes?
"Okay, the audition is over, you can go back and wait for the news! Thank you, Stephen!" Li Yi said with a smile.
Although Stephen Carr was a little confused as to why this audition was different from his previous auditions, he still bowed politely and thanked him.
"What do you think?" Li Yi looked at Carlos, Chen Wen, and Wen Qing.
"Some surprise!" Carlos said.
"Actually, the child's world is very simple. No matter how the outside world views his mother, at least, when his mother plays with him, he should be really happy! After all, no matter what, it is his Mother." Chen Wen said.
"A very well-behaved child, I think it's pretty good." Wen Qing said with a smile.
"However, he doesn't seem to meet your requirements?" Chen Wen looked at Li Yi.
Li Yi shook his head and said: "I just have an idea, and you may not necessarily follow it. Let's take a look!"
The second person to come in was Jason Kaplan.
When he walked in, Li Yi and the others felt awkward.
It wasn't that he was impolite, on the contrary, he gave Li Yi and the others the feeling that Jason Kaplan was quite polite and meticulous.
If this kind of temperament is in an adult, it can definitely be called an elegant gentleman, but in a child who is only six years old, it will make people feel unreal.
Yes, it's just not true.
Because, in Li Yi's view, a six-year-old child shouldn't be like this.
A six-year-old child, like Stephen Carr before him, always smiles knowingly when he talks about going to the amusement park, eating banana split ice cream, making ceramics with his mother, etc.
But Jason Kaplan is too polite.
It even made Li Yi and the others feel that his words and deeds were all habits formed through countless repeated trainings.
But he is just a six-year-old kid.
I don't know why Wen Qing feels a little distressed. How much experience does a child have to go through before he develops such a habit?
It’s not that everyone doesn’t like polite children.
Many parents may complain that their children are naughty when talking to others.
But if one day the child really becomes very stereotyped, like Jason Kaplan, who looks like a little gentleman, then parents may be more worried.
Because this is not what a normal child should have!
"Hello, sir, madam, I am Jason Kaplan, I am six years old this year! The role I am auditioning for is David, thank you!" Jason Kaplan still said politely.
"Hi, Jason, today's audition is quite special. Well, I will ask you a few questions later, and you just need to answer them truthfully, okay?" Li Yi repeated what he said before.
"Okay, sir!" Jason Kaplan had a flash of doubt in his eyes, but he still nodded politely.
"Can you tell me about your daily life? For example, how do you spend your time between getting up and going to bed at night?" Li Yi thought for a while and asked.
Jason Kaplan paused. It was obvious that Li Yi's question was somewhat beyond his expectation.
Wen Qing and others have all read Jason Kaplan's information, so they are particularly curious about the answer to Li Yi's question.
