Chapter 5 The First Audition
Chapter 5 The First Audition
Although "Fearless" is a gangster movie, it is not a gangster movie in the traditional sense. There are still police officers who uphold justice in it. A major force that broke down the dark side of K City.
In this short week, Qin Zhiran was very busy, but not too busy. Basically whenever he was free, he carried a script and sketched. My brother's eyes are getting more and more wrong.
The one who wanders in a trance every day, can't it be which girl Chunxin Mengdeng has a crush on?
Qin Zhiran naturally didn't know that his sister looked disgusted at any time, he was just thinking about the characters in the script.
Speaking of which, the script is still very detailed, and many things are explained clearly. In order to achieve the desired effect, the screenwriter even analyzed the character of the characters for the actors as a reference.
A week passed without knowing it, and Ji Shuxiao picked Qin Zhiran away early in the morning and rushed to the audition location.
The audition place is also full of people now, many of them have nervous and uneasy faces, while some are full of confidence.
"Fearless" is the third film of the new director Yao Qiang. The first two films are both police films in the traditional sense. It pales in comparison to other movies.
This time is a breakthrough for him, he changed his usual themes, and even bravely tried to use newcomers, except for the leading actor who is still a well-known actor in the film industry, all the other roles were chosen It's some new actors.
It's quite an attempt to pan for gold in sand, but the risk is still very high. The director himself is not very famous. Except for the actor who can bring a little exposure and attention, other actors can't be relied on, but the same, the benefits of using newcomers The reason is that the cost is low and easy to control.
Perhaps Yao Qiang wanted to give it a go. He was originally the second-generation director who refused to use the relationship of the older generation. This time he specially relied on his father to find a well-known screenwriter in the industry to write the script, so Maybe it's not that you don't want to use good stars at all, but that the cost is all spent on the screenwriter, right?
But no matter what, Qin Zhiran looked at the basically unknown young rookies around him, and didn't quite understand what the director was going to do.
Because everyone is a newcomer, and many newcomers are auditioning for the first time this time, there is a lot of secret selling of cigarettes among the crowd, after all, they are all nervous, who has time to control other people.
Qin Zhiran sat quietly on the chair with his eyes downcast and waited, his face was so calm that Ji Shuxiao wanted to say "Don't be nervous", but he couldn't say it. Others might think that Qin Zhiran was trying to force his composure, but Ji Shuxiao didn't Think of it this way, the equanimity is a lot like a mixture of confidence and mastery.
Soon, it was Qin Zhiran's audition.
Standing up, Qin Zhiran's mouth curled slightly, and he walked slowly into the audition room.
Yao Qiang pinched the base of his nose, wondering if his decision was wrong. Can these newcomers really play these important roles well?All of them turned pale with nervousness before they started acting, as if they were going to do something to them, or they were so excited that they played a tragic role and instantly became the protagonist of a hot-blooded comic. Could it be that Yao Qiang is going to be at a disadvantage? Can't even find an actor? ? ?
"Hello teachers, my name is Qin Zhiran, and the role I'm auditioning for is Lin Bai."
The jade-like voice sounded, and Yao Qiang, who had been frowning in anger, raised his eyes to look at the young man standing in front of them.
Oh, this looks good enough, but I don't know if acting skills are directly proportional to appearance.
"Let's get started." Waving his hand, Yao Qiang leaned back on the chair, looking at the person in front of him with drooping eyes without any expectation.
Qin Zhiran turned his gaze and smiled. There was actually an old acquaintance here. The one who smiled kindly like a Maitreya Buddha was Mr. Zhou, an old screenwriter with a high status in the screenwriting world.
He closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened them again, the expression in those eyes changed immediately, and the smile on his face deepened a bit. Compared with the gentleness before, Qin Zhiran now is more like a sunny and cheerful boy.
"Brother, try it." The boy pushed his hand forward, as if he was pushing something to someone opposite.
After pausing for a while, the boy blinked, stuffed something into his mouth, and muttered in a low voice: "Hmm...it seems a bit sweet, but it should be just right if my brother likes sweets."
The person on the other side seemed to say something, the boy's eyes suddenly sparkled, and there was an appropriate surprise on his face: "Really?"
After being confirmed, the boy raised a big smile, and there seemed to be a touch of hope in his eyes, but there seemed to be something else mixed in, but it was too small and no one could see it from the crooked eyebrows.
Yao Qiang sat up straight, looked at the person in front of him fixedly, and frowned again, but the surprise in his eyes could not be concealed.
Not only Yao Qiang, but Mr. Zhou who was sitting next to him also stared at the boy in front of him, watching his every move. Obviously there was no actual scene, and there was no one opposite him, but his every move was telling Seeing the people around him, he was indeed very happy and looking forward to it, but it seemed that there were some other emotions hidden behind that joy, which attracted people to explore.
The director Yao Qiang and the screenwriter Zhou Lao know the setting of this movie best. At the beginning, they had disagreements about Lin Bai's character setting.
At first, Yao Qiang thought that Lin Bai was seriously ill, and because of the difficult economic conditions, there was no way to treat him, so his personality became weird and surly. Later, when he knew that his brother had gone astray to prepare money for his medical treatment, he was not grateful. Instead, he began to hate his brother and hate his brother.
However, Mr. Zhou did not agree with such a setting. In the end, the two quarreled and quarreled before deciding on the setting of Lin Bai. This is a depressed boy and a boy with low self-esteem. And pain, he felt guilty for dragging his brother down and causing him to go astray, so he was very kind to his brother, so good that he always forced a smile in front of him.
However, the Lin Bai played by Qin Zhiran today is not the setting set by the two of them, but another Lin Bai, another Lin Bai who touched them.
The smiling big boy in front of him is really happy and full of expectations. Those smiling peach blossom eyes look at the person opposite is full of trust and dependence. He is not depressed or depressed. Inferiority, some only optimistic and strong.
The voice of speaking disappeared, Lin Bai smiled, but the expression on his face slowly changed, returning to the previous Qin Zhiran, not Lin Bai, the few people in front of him hadn't recovered yet, but found that Qin Zhiran had already It's out.
Yao Qiang opened his mouth and asked the doubts in his heart: "Lin Bai's personal setting has been analyzed in the script, but the Lin Bai you play is not the Lin Bai we set, why did you arbitrarily make this Has the setting of the character changed?"
Qin Zhiran's expression remained unchanged, and he said in a calm manner: "As the name of the movie says, Lin Zhou is fearless in his revenge. He even put his own life aside. Let’s talk about what kind of existence Lin Bai is, so that Lin Zhou has nothing to fear after losing Lin Bai? The road that Lin Zhou walks is a road covered in blood, and it is also a dark road. He will still be condemned by his conscience , he will be afraid that his younger brother will be hurt, and this hurt may come from others or from himself..."
Looking at the people in front of him who were listening to him seriously, Qin Zhiran paused, and continued: "People in the dark yearn for light, and people in the cold yearn for warmth, and Lin Bai is Lin Zhou's light and warmth, and he is also the reason for his actions." Support, here I think that compared to a depressed person with low self-esteem, an optimistic and cheerful Lin Bai who always trusts and supports his brother is Lin Zhou's salvation, and it is the only light in Lin Zhou's dark life that he is reluctant to give up."
Yao Qiang's eyes were dim, and there was no obvious change in his face, but Zhou Lao lowered his eyes and looked thoughtful.
Qin Zhiran took all these performances into his eyes, bowed to several people, and left the room.
Ji Shu saw people coming out with a smile, and the two drove away without asking any questions.
A day later, Ji Shuxiao received a call from the film crew, and it was decided that Lin Bai would be played by Qin Zhiran, and the newly revised script was then sent to Qin Zhiran.
If it were other film crews, Qin Zhiran's behavior of changing the script privately, it would be a good idea not to give him this role, maybe he would offend people if he was not careful.
Qin Zhiran had two plans for the interpretation of this role. At the beginning, he didn't intend to play the Lin Bai he understood, but when he saw Mr. Zhou, he knew he could do it.
No, this new script is the result.
The actor has already been decided, and the next thing is to set up the makeup photo and start the machine. Yao Qiang is a man of action. He just confirmed the actor, and without any buffer, he called everyone over to take the makeup photo in three days.
After looking at the few people who arrived on time, Qin Zhiran took a glance. The leading actor Lin Zhou was played by Sun Shilai. This actor had worked with him once in his previous life. In terms of temperament, she is relatively gentle, and the heroine is a newcomer. I heard that she used to be a literary soldier, so she has a heroic temperament, which is very suitable for the image of the heroine as a policeman.
The other two are middle-aged actors, one is called Li Zhengyi, he looks very serious and unsmiling, just like his name shows, he is full of righteousness, he also plays a policeman, the heroine's boss .
The other smiles very gently, looks ordinary, and has a very friendly aura around him, but it is different from his impression, this one is playing the main revenge of the male protagonist, a black man with countless lives Dao Boss.
The makeup photo was very simple, but it was over in a while. During this period, several actors chatted with each other, which added to the impression.
……
The movie "Fearless" is a movie that mixes reality and memories. The scene at the beginning is that Lin Zhou betrayed the original organization and switched to the enemy organization. It did not explain everything that Lin Zhou had done at the beginning. What is it for, just like simply unfolding the experience of a black/road youth for the public.
But later, after Lin Zhou gained the trust of the boss of the organization, he planned to kill a small leader of the boss. At this time, Lin Bai was playing for the first time.
Lin Bai's appearances are all unfolded from the perspective of memories, and when Lin Zhou designed the little boss, he let the little boss know why Lin Zhou joined their gang.
However, Lin Zhou naturally wouldn't give him a chance to speak out, and the little boss died just like that.
There are only four shots of Lin Bai in the whole movie, but they run through the whole movie. Because of the need for editing, Yao Qiang wanted to shoot the four shots of Lin Bai first on the first day of the filming.
