Huayu: I'm reborn, but you still force me to be a scumbag?

Chapter 309: Strict Teachers Produce Excellent Students (Long-lost 0:7268 -word chapter!)

On the auspicious day of August 2009, 8, the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly" received good news from Hong Kong.

Finally, Chow Yun-fat couldn't resist the temptation of competing with the three biggest movie kings from mainland China, and adjusted his schedule this year, deciding to play the role of Huang Silang in the film.

At this point, all the main characters in the play have been decided, except for the heroine Hua Jie, who remains undecided.

But Jiang Wen was not in a hurry.

He had already thought about it, if it really didn't work out, in order to save on pay, he would let his wife do it.

As for the sudden appearance of a girl like Tong Liya, what can I say?

In terms of appearance, age, purity, and even the pay, she is quite suitable.

It’s just… he looked at her acting skills during the audition.

It's a bit difficult.

It’s not that you can’t do it despite the pressure, but if you don’t need to do it despite the pressure, then forget it.

Although he thinks his wife Zhou Yun's acting skills are just average, especially her dialogue skills, which are not up to par.

However, she is still much better than Tong Liya, who just graduated.

But he also had no intention of cheating people and doing it for free.

As long as Tong Liya can give a satisfactory performance before the entire crew moves to Guangdong on the 15th, what's wrong with Sister Hua letting her play the role?
What if it really doesn’t work.

At the very least, he guaranteed a special extra with close-ups, lines and a few minutes of screen time, and he was also prepared to pay her according to the standard for the third female lead.

It is his duty to take care of his junior sister at the Central Academy of Drama.

In fact, he was mentally prepared for the second option.

Acting skills? Can they really be taught in just half a month? He didn't really believe it.

Tong Liya is not certain people.

If you are that kind of person,

Although he didn't have Zhang Yiyi's luck, he was not blind. How could he not see it?

So, when Tong Liya came to him a week in advance on August 8 and said she was going to prepare for an audition, Jiang Wen was really surprised.

"Xiao Tong, would you like to reconsider it? If I really call everyone over, then it's fine if it works, and it's not if it doesn't. But there's only one chance."

"Director, I know."

"Why don't you practice with Nuozi for a few more days?"

"No need, director."

Jiang Wen looked at the girl's calm expression and said, "Okay, after work tomorrow at 7:30 pm, I'll call everyone."

The next day, Jiang Wen really called all the relevant personnel.

The on-site producers from the three major investment companies, various assistant directors, casting directors, producers, and Ge You.

Several actors who had nothing to do, such as Liao Fan, Shao Bing, Zhang Mo and others, also came to watch the fun, and he did not stop them.

If she is really chosen, she will have to act with them in the role of Sister Hua.

Why are these stinking men so aggressive?

Director Jiang also had an idea in mind.

We are all grown men. We have been staying in this mountain village for more than a month. Who wouldn’t want to take a look at a beautiful woman?
So, before Chen Nuo met Tencent and Sina in the teahouse on the second floor of the guesthouse, at around 8pm on August 9, after dinner, there were about 7 people from the Let the Bullets Fly crew, filling the entire space.

Moreover, everyone adjusted the direction of their chairs and sat facing north.

Because there was a private room on the north side, which was turned into a temporary dressing room, Tong Liya was putting on makeup and changing clothes inside.

The makeup artist and costume designer applied makeup to Jiang Wen according to her request, which would be used during the actual filming, and also changed her into the costumes she would wear during the actual filming.

This hints to the people of Happy Blue Ocean that Director Jiang will not be perfunctory in this audition.

After finishing her makeup, Tong Liya will walk out and start her rehearsal in the specially cleared space next to the door.

There are three scenes in total.

One scene with Mr. Huang, and two scenes with Zhang Mazi.

I don’t know whether the lines will be changed on the spot, but the scripts of these three scenes are real scripts and the lyrics are also real.

The people I act with are almost real people.

The lyrics of Mr. Huang were sung by Ge You, even though Chow Yun-fat had not yet joined the crew.

When playing Zhang Mazi, the real Zhang Mazi will naturally be cast.

Almost everything from makeup to costumes, from lines to actors, was real. In Jiang Wen's words, this audition was "not fake, it was real all the way through."

In the end, whether Tong Liya, a graduate of the Central Academy of Drama and a girl of the Xibe ethnic group, is capable or not will be revealed soon.

The people sitting and waiting at the scene were also very curious.

Because everyone knows who she learned acting from.

During those days, if someone hadn't left the door open every day, there would have been people gossiping in private.

But now, everyone who knows about it shakes their heads and sighs, what is a gentleman? This is what a gentleman is.

I used to be a little skeptical of some things I heard, but now I have to believe them no matter how skeptical I am.

Many people put themselves in other people’s shoes and don’t think they can do it.

Everyone noticed how Tong Liya looked when she first arrived and said hello, even if they didn't know her before.

Such a pitiful and exotic beauty was right in front of him, within his reach, but he did nothing. He even opened the door for three days to put an end to all fantasies and rumors in advance.

Who has ever heard of such a thing? And who, upon hearing of such a thing, would not shake his head in admiration?

The ancients said that one who can do what others cannot do is called a real man.

What it means is that you may not agree with some behaviors and may think that the person is stupid, but even if your conscience has been eaten by a dog, you cannot say that he is wrong.

So far, it has only been about 20 days since Chen Nuo joined the team.

But everyone from the producer to the handyman had to admit defeat.

Including that arrogant Hong Kong guy who looked down on everyone, the on-site production supervisor sent by Eagle King, the fake foreign devil named Todd Zhang,
Before, I was a bit arrogant towards him.

Now, whether you are willing or not, whether it is true or false,

In short, when he saw the young man in his twenties, he bowed his head and called him Brother Nuo.

This also gave the mainland staff a sense of encouragement. It was 09, right? It was still the era when Hong Kong people were arrogant.

However, Brother Nuo, who is trying to save face for everyone without any airs and is a fucking gentleman,

There are still people spreading rumors online?

Just tell me how hateful those bastards are.

"Really? I just didn't get to see those bastards. If I did, I would have gone to the bathroom and had a good chat with them."

"Yeah, he also said that he was dominating the show, and that he was using unspoken rules in the crew. Haha, he also said that he used his privileges to insert a related actress into our show. What the hell is this if not bullshit?"

"He is well-mannered and doesn't care. If it were me, I would point at those rumor-mongers and kill them all. He is so powerful, he doesn't care who he wants. I would flatten any mountain he climbs."

"You never know, there might be some jealous rabbits in our circle stirring up trouble behind the scenes."

"What do you mean by uncertain? It's 100 percent certain. Isn't it the same in our circle? We just want to see people suffer misfortunes, not to see them get rich. Who knows, there might really be one in our group."

"Ah? Impossible? That reporter is talking nonsense. Is there such a damned bastard?"

"Is that so? I tell you, reporters don't dare to make up stories like this. Usually someone really provides them with the information, otherwise their leaders wouldn't have given them the manuscript. Otherwise, if they write nonsense, what kind of news is that? It's better to call it an online article."

"That's it."

"That's not the case!"

With so many people sitting in the teahouse on the second floor, it was naturally noisy and people were talking about all kinds of things.

It just so happened that the two assistant directors sitting next to Zhang Mo started talking about the things he least wanted to hear, which made him upset.

He wanted to tell them to shut up, but he felt a little guilty.

I knew I wouldn't come.

During this period, his treatment in the crew did not improve.

What about Liao Fan and Shao Bing? Seeing him outside the play is like seeing a ghost. When acting with him, we just keep the surface of him.

But that didn't matter to him.

There was a period of time in the past few years when he was treated almost the same way wherever he went.

His father therefore assigned him several assistant agents, so he got used to it.

Chatting and having fun with people around you won’t be boring.

I had some free time yesterday, so I went to a place in this valley and played there for a while.

Except for the inconvenience of taking a shower and a bit of smell, everything else is pretty good.

At that time, when he was on that woman, all he was thinking about was the face of this XJ woman.

After that chance encounter in the corridor, he asked his assistant to look up Tong Liya's information online.

After knowing that the other party was a minority, or some kind of tin foil tribe, Zhang Mo couldn't help but get more excited.

Fate, what a fate.

Not only is his surname Tong in Chinese opera, but he is also a member of the tin foil tribe.

He uses tin foil very often.

If this isn’t a gift from God to me, then what is?
So after getting the news today, he also came. Before pursuing a woman, you naturally have to find out the bottom line first.

A few minutes passed like this.
Just when Zhang Mo was getting impatient and almost unable to bear it anymore after listening to the two assistant directors chatting at the same table,
The door of the box opposite was wrenched open from the inside.

A woman walked out from the door with her head slightly lowered.

She was wearing an emerald green Chinese-style blouse with purple and red flowers on it. Her sleeves were slightly rolled up, revealing a small section of her white wrists.

She wore a pair of purple pants, and her long black hair was loosely tied up into a round bun at the back of her head, with a few strands of hair playfully hanging down around her neck.
When she walked to the middle, the originally noisy teahouse gradually quieted down.

Dozens of pairs of eyes were looking at this beauty from the Republic of China who looked like she had stepped out of a picture from old times.

Being stared at by so many men, Tong Liya's face only turned slightly red, and she did not seem overly shy.

After all, a 26-year-old woman is not an ordinary college graduate.

I have attended classes and danced for a few years, studied at the Central Academy of Drama for a few years, and filmed so many large and small dramas. I have seen a lot of scenes and recognized a lot of people.

Those who need to adapt have already adapted.

It’s just that the role she wants to get this time is more important than all the roles she has ever gotten in her life combined.

The people watching her audition were more famous than all the actors she had met in her life combined.

So, when Tong Liya saw that her reassurance pill did not arrive as promised, she was still a little nervous.

However, she has always used her smile as a weapon when facing others, and her smile is still natural, and you can't tell at all.

Tong Liya smiled and said, "Hello director, hello everyone, I am Tong Liya, I am 26 years old, and today I am auditioning for the role of Sister Hua." Then she bowed towards the table of Jiang Wen and Ge You, and saluted in all directions.

Jiang Wen nodded, without any intention of dragging his feet, "Then let's get started. Brother You, please talk to Xiao Tong for a while."

In private, Ge You was not as interesting as he was on screen. He just nodded and simply said "OK".

Then it started.

……

……

More than ten minutes later.

"Were you bought by Huang Silang?"

"Correct."

"Did he ever hit you?"

"Hit."

"Have I ever hit you?"

"No."

"Do you hate him?"

"hatred."

"Hate me?"

"Don't hate."

"Then why don't you point the gun at him? Why don't you point the gun at me?"

"Because you're a good person!"

"What? Good people have to be pointed at with guns?"...

The dialogue in the last scene was like a gust of wind and thunder, and the rhythm was as fast as dense drum beats, but Tong Liya still managed to hold on under Jiang Wen's momentum.

She didn't think it was her fault, she just thought he was amazing.

In addition to Ge You's Huang Silang, who is different from his performance,

The rhythm of Jiang Wen's acting was almost exactly the same as when she practiced.

This is just like the Chinese teacher guessing the essay topic in the college entrance examination.

The students were laughing so hard that their faces almost broke.

For example, in the last paragraph, he spoke the lyrics so fast and fiercely that it took her a long time to catch up with the rhythm. She even wondered in her heart whether Jiang Wen would be able to act like this, and whether it would be a bit too much.

The result... not to say it's exactly right, but at least it's almost right.

If he hadn't practiced with her many times, she would definitely be nervous in the last part.

Especially Jiang Wen slammed the table and shouted in a deep voice: "Why don't you point the gun at him? Why don't you point the gun at me?"

There was no way she would reply in a high-pitched tone: "Because you are a good person."

This is the place where he taught.

Sure enough, when the scene was over, Jiang Wen was surprised. He obviously didn't expect that she could keep up. He said, "Xiao Tong, you are amazing."

Tong Liya couldn't help but smile sincerely, her dimples and pointed fangs were exposed, "Thank you, director."

"Okay, that's it. Thank you, Xiao Tong. Go change your clothes."

"Okay, thank you Brother You, thank you everyone, I'm going first."

Tong Liya clasped her hands together and thanked everyone. She glanced at the door and noticed that Zhang Mo had also come. She couldn't help but feel a little alert.

But she didn't care too much. She went to the box to quickly change her clothes, came out to say goodbye to everyone, and walked out.

When her agent Zhou saw her coming out, he smiled and said excitedly, "Yaya, great, you acted really well! Especially the words you memorized so smoothly. I felt really excited just listening to them from outside! It's done, it's definitely done this time!"

Tong Liya was also very happy and smiled, "I think so too." Then she looked up at the stairs involuntarily.

Brother Zhou smiled when he saw it. "What? You still want someone to come down to support you? Impossible. He is such a big shot, how could he do such a thing? And you didn't...Okay, okay, I think it should be fine. Did you say when to give you the news?"

"I told you, it'll be tonight."

"Okay, let's go. You haven't eaten yet, so let's go get something to eat first. We can just keep things simple in this town. After we take this guy down, we'll go back to the capital, and Brother Zhou, I'll treat you to a luxurious seafood dinner!"

……

"I think it's pretty good. Especially considering Tong Liya's age, right? It's very rare to be able to interact with two movie kings."

"Haha, Producer Xu, I know she is from your Happy Blue Ocean, but I think she still needs to practice acting. Acting in a movie is not just about speaking lines, you still need to perform. Producer Ma, what do you think?"

Ma Ke laughed and said, "I don't understand movies. Brother You, what do you think?"

Ge You said: "I don't really understand either. Now that I'm done, I'll go back first. You guys continue the discussion, haha."

After Jiang Wen sent Ge You away, he came back and sat down, saying, "Okay, guys, tell us what you want to say."

The casting director said, "I agree with what Producer Xu said. This girl has a good line foundation. She sounds comfortable and tasteful, especially in the first and last scenes. There are really places that make people's eyes shine...but in terms of overall stability, it is still a little lacking."

"Not just a little, but a lot." Another assistant director said, "With her acting skills, she may need to work hard on the script for a month or two, and then do dozens of NGs on the spot before she can perform well."

These words made everyone laugh.

Zhang Mo mingled among them, laughing particularly happily.

If there is anyone who most wants Tong Liya to fail in the audition, it should be him.

Because he has already thought about it.

When this XJ woman could only play minor roles in movies, his chance came.

At that time, he would ask her out to have a good chat about the future, the entertainment industry he knew, and his father's name.

He just didn't believe that the other party would run away when he saw him like he did that day.

He's not ugly, right?
After that incident a few years ago, this was the first time he cared so much about a woman.

We must not let her play the leading female role.

If it were a female protagonist, there would be many more thoughts and many things, and it wouldn't be so easy.

"...Producer Xu, please don't look so ugly. Look, I'm not the only one saying this, right? Miss Tong is very pretty, but her acting is really bad."

"In Hong Kong, there is an old saying: If you are not that big, you should not wear such a big hat. What's the meaning?"

"That is to say, if you don't have such a big head, you shouldn't wear such a big hat."

"The hat of our movie's heroine is too big for Miss Tong to wear."

This Hong Konger representing the Eagle King spoke a lot in a mixture of Cantonese, Hong Kong Mandarin and English, which made everyone laugh except Xu Huang, the producer of Happy Blue Ocean.

Jiang Wen also shook his head and laughed.

Although what Hong Kong people say may not sound nice, it is indeed true.

During this week, Tong Liya has indeed made a lot of progress compared to her first audition.

The first time it was so embarrassing that I could dig my toes into the ground.

This performance is actually quite realistic and you can see that it is somewhat vivid. It is like acting out a person rather than an impression in the mind.

When acting opposite Ge You, there was a hint of vulgarity and even a bit of surprise in the way his eyes moved, as if he had some life experience.

The back and forth with him was also thoughtful and rhythmic.

However... her appearance as a vase most of the time makes it hard to give people the confidence to give her the role of Sister Hua.

Would it be better if I waited a few days for the audition?

Jiang Wen didn’t know.

Because he had advised her, she made her own choice. He couldn't do anything...

"Oh, is the show already over?"

At this moment, a young man suddenly walked in at the door. He was wearing shorts and a short-sleeved shirt, with a hint of surprise on his face.

Jiang Wen stood up and said with a smile: "Nuozi, why are you here?"

Not only him, everyone present stood up at once.

Chen Nuo quickly waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite, don't be polite. Everyone, take a seat. I just came over to take a look. I just made a phone call, and it took a little while. Is the show over?"

Jiang Wen laughed and said, "Yes, the performance is over. Come, come and sit down."

Chen Nuo sat down in the seat next to Jiang Wen, and couldn't help but want to curse in his heart.

We agreed to come over today to support the show, and see if I can help with the acting, play the role of Huang Silang or something.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yifei started looking for trouble as soon as she returned to China. I talked to him on the phone for almost half an hour, and by then he had finished the show.

At this point, I have no choice but to be shameless and listen to what others say to see if I can still make amends.

Chen Nuo made up his mind and said with a laugh: "Then I'll sit here and listen. After all, I'm the one who taught her. You guys continue to talk, and I'll see how well she performs. If not, I'll go back and scold her, haha."

Then he sat next to Jiang Wen.

No one spoke for a while.

Chen Nuo also felt that it was awkward for him to force his way in, and cursed Liu Yifei in his heart, and asked for conversation: "Brother Jiang, what do you think of Tong Liya's performance?"

Jiang Wen touched his chin, coughed, and said, "I think..."

I couldn't say what I felt for a long time.

Then, someone nearby came to the rescue.

"I think Miss Tong's acting is very good, first-rate, perfect! In our Hong Kong dialect, it is called 'flying with anger'. If I, Todd Cheung, were to make the decision, the role of Sister Hua would definitely go to Miss Tong. Brother Nuo, you are really a strict teacher who produces excellent students."

"Haha, really?"

Chen Nuo didn't believe a word of what this Hong Kong guy said. If Tong Liya was really good at acting, why did he ask her to come to Jiang Wen for an audition in advance?
Isn't it because the longer you delay, the greater people's hope, the greater their disappointment, and the more miserable their death will be?

It’s better to come for the audition earlier, so that after you mess up, people can still have some hope and imagine whether it can be saved if time is longer.

After hearing what Todd Zhang said, Chen Nuo had only one thought:
It seems that he really takes me for a fool, feeding me with sweet talk every day. This Eagle King is becoming more and more suspicious.

Boss Yang...haha, let’s wait and see.

Chen Nuo originally thought so.

I didn't expect it,
Everyone in the room then began to praise Tong Liya for her acting skills. She portrayed the charm of the prostitute and the purity of Sister Hua to perfection.

To be honest, if these people hadn't mentioned Tong Liya's name from time to time, Chen Nuo would have thought they were talking about Maggie Cheung.

He was a little confused, and turned to ask Jiang Wen: "Brother Jiang, is your acting really that good?"

Jiang Wen looked at him, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up, revealing a smile, and said, "Yes."

WTF? Chen Nuo had never expected this.

Zhang Mo was also unexpected.

Seeing that his original plan was about to fail, he gritted his teeth in anger and stared at the surprised man not far away.

Fuck you, why are you pretending?

Especially when I heard the two assistant directors sitting next to me muttering that Tong Liya's level was only good enough to be a vase in a TV series,

As a result, when people arrived, they shouted the loudest, saying that Tong Liya was the future star who would surpass Zhou Xun and catch up with Fan Binbing.

Zhang Mo was really furious.

Once he got angry, he didn't want to listen anymore.

With a cruel smile on his face, he stood up and prepared to leave.

He was Zhang Guoli's son, so he didn't need to fawn on them like these people. His seat was right at the door, just two steps away.

As a result, he unexpectedly got up with a bigger movement and the chair made a sharp sound on the ground.

Everyone looked over at once.

He also saw that the man turned around and looked over.

Zhang Mo's heart suddenly became flustered. His originally cold eyebrows softened instantly. His sword-like eyebrows turned into a s-shaped shape, and his small eyes became a slit.

"Sorry, I feel sick and want to leave first. But I recognize Miss Tong's acting skills...Brother Nuo."

When Zhang Mo called out "brother", he was stunned for a moment.

He really didn't know why he just cried out naturally.

At this moment, his self-esteem was bleeding.

Chen Nuo looked at him thoughtfully, nodded, and said nothing more.

Not to mention calling him brother, even calling him grandpa is useless.

He would never deal with this person, no matter whether he was good or bad.

"If we meet face to face, we should not recognize each other." That would be the best. He can even tolerate it if you don't really get on his face.

The reason is that he is really afraid that one day in the future, the media will dig up the old accounts and say that Zhang Mo and Chen Nuo had a dispute in a certain month and year. This shows that the two have a close relationship. Is it possible that it is because...

At that time, he probably would have no choice but to settle down in Hollywood.

Zhang Mo left and Chen Nuo didn't sit there for long.

After listening for a while, he took the initiative to say goodbye.

Is it true that Tong Liya performed so well, or are these people lying?

He really doesn't know.

Just like he didn't realize how much of an impression his previous behavior of treating the crew like a bicycle had left on the producers.

When Boss Yang from Hong Kong heard about it, he praised it highly and told Todd Zhang to obey his orders and never offend him again.

He didn't know, he just opened the door to avoid suspicion. Because in the future, those fairies are really not to be messed with.

For example, a certain acting teacher simply did not open his door to teach, which resulted in female students accusing him of rape and sexual harassment many years later, and making up a lot of other shit.

It makes people feel that it is wrong to explain, and it is also wrong not to explain.

It makes people feel that if men are caught talking about this kind of thing, they will be ashamed.

As a result, he just didn't want to cause trouble. As a result, in the eyes of everyone in the "Let the Bullets Fly" crew, they all thought that he was not only famous and had good professional skills, but also had good character and did not follow any unspoken rules.

Basically, it is at the level of being coated with a layer of gold and then being able to be moved to the Golden Summit of Mount Emei to replace Samantabhadra Bodhisattva.

Therefore, Chen Nuo was not pretending, he was really a little confused.

So much so that at half past twelve in the middle of the night, when he was half asleep, he was awakened by a slight knock on the door.
Then he got up, opened the door, and a figure flashed in.
He was still a little confused: "You really didn't lie to me, it's really not that you acted well?"

Ps:

Asking for a monthly ticket in a low voice.
