Chapter 556: He Xiao Appears!

Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces.

In the brightly lit recording hall.

An aerial camera gave a panoramic shot, and the entire stage and auditorium were clearly visible.

"The No. [-] engine advances."

Zheng Xia was sitting behind the main monitor, directing the cameramen to switch shots.

Camera No. [-] was facing the bottom of the stage. After the cameraman zoomed in, he gave the host Zhang Ming a close-up shot.

I saw him holding the microphone and introducing the background of the show to the audience with his full voice to the camera.

"Here, there is no age gap."

"There is no favoritism between the protagonist and the supporting role."

"Not to mention, there is no difference in respect between celebrities and ordinary people."

"Here, there are only actors competing with each other."

"All stories, release emotions, convey beliefs, and achieve dreams!"

"This is... the birth of an actor!"

As soon as the sound fell, there was already thunderous applause at the scene.

The camera switched again and showed Xiao Jitong. He smiled slightly and said, "I am the actor Xiao Jitong. I came here to find the most shocking performance!"

Qi Xiao also said generously to the camera: "I am actor Qi Xiao, I hope that on this stage, we can reposition ourselves as to what a real actor is."

The popular movie star Yi Guangyuan also said in a fit of anger: "I am the actor Yi Guangyuan, a really good actor, not only have acting skills, but also have character!"

The camera flashed, and when it came to Wang Shi, who was the producer and assistant director, he put away his belly and said with a proud face: "Everyone has experienced passionate youth, and everyone will accumulate a lot of experience. Actors, You can use the time of a play to experience the passionate years of a lifetime, but also use a lifetime of emotions to chase the original dream."

"The birth of an actor is born with a dream, and we - come for the dream!"

As the voice fell, the camera flashed repeatedly in the auditorium and the instructor's seat, and finally landed on the host Zhang Ming.

I saw him strolling forward, while smiling, "Let me re-introduce myself, I am Zhang Ming, the actor recommender, and I recommend six actors to compete in each performance, and the one who gets the highest number of votes on the spot will have the opportunity to challenge the mentor." , the three acting instructors, sit in the arena, waiting for the challenge!"

There was thunderous applause from the audience.

In fact, there is a big loophole in what he said. The so-called actor recommenders are just a gimmick. Zhang Ming didn't recommend anyone at all. Whoever can be on this show is also an invitation from the show crew.

But the audience doesn't care about these, and no one will go into this dead end.

"Hello Teacher Xu Zhixing, hello bosses."

After the applause subsided, Zhang Ming bowed to the ten small seats below the instructor's seat. The ten people here are senior practitioners in the industry invited by the program group, some are directors, some are screenwriters, and they will use the most professional perspective, To sharply comment on the performances of the actors.

Undoubtedly, this is a tricky job, because there must be someone who can perform well on this stage, and there must be someone who can't perform well. If you tell the truth, it means you want to offend people, so the program team can only find some people with backgrounds in the industry. The kind of person who is in charge, has a strong idea, and is not afraid of offending others.

This is why the respected Zhang Ming bowed to the ten people in the audience. In terms of qualifications, some of them are no worse than Zhang Ming, and in terms of background, some are executives of a certain entertainment company, and some are very prestigious senior screenwriters in the industry.

The entertainment industry is so big, everyone bows their heads and sees them, Zhang Ming has to give them enough face.

"Hehe, everyone is friends, especially these three, they are actors I respect and friends I respect very much."

After introducing the ten-member judging panel, Zhang Ming turned his attention to the three big names on the mentor stage, and said, "Three hall-level actors are here to participate in a program called "The Birth of an Actor". I'm very curious, you are all successful people... This "The Birth of an Actor" is different from other programs. They are going to challenge you. If you challenge others, you have the possibility of victory, and you have the possibility of failure. , are you not afraid of failure?"

Although Zhang Ming is not a professional host, he is a professional actor. For a professional actor, solid line skills are the basic requirements, so although he speaks slowly, his words are correct and his tone is cadenced. With the music that renders the environment on the spot, the atmosphere of the whole show was mobilized at once.

Everyone looked curiously at the three people on the mentor platform.

Yes, if someone comes to challenge, there is a possibility of victory. As the movie kings and actresses who have long been popular in the country, are you really not afraid?

A group of people waited for the three to answer.

Xiao Jitong is obviously the one who has received the most attention, because he has the biggest celebrity position among the three people. As a character who once monopolized Kung Fu movies, he also broke into Hollywood for a while. His popularity and prestige in the eyes of ordinary people are obvious to all. .

If he was successfully challenged by a junior, would he accept it in his heart?Are you not afraid of the media hype?

Facing the eyes and the close-up of the camera, Xiao Jitong knew that he couldn't escape, so he smiled and said: "I'm not afraid, the reason why I came to this show is because I heard that there are actors who want to challenge me, I am very excited Excited, I feel that even if I lose, it is worth it, because I have witnessed the rise of the descendants."

It has to be said that Xiao Jitong can talk a lot. His sense of variety may not be strong, but his words are very logical, which makes people feel good at once.

And what he said is very open, I am not afraid of challenges, and it is an honor to fail. It represents the prosperity of our Huaguo film and television industry. Regardless of whether it is a scene or not, it makes the audience feel comfortable and not petty.

The audience has already burst into applause.

The camera was shown on Qi Xiao again, compared to Xiao Jitong's calm and calm, Qi Xiao was different, she was a little nervous, and used a lot of tone words, saying: "Well... I think so, I hope that all who come Actors, all can win, because acting is something that is strong when you meet the strong, and when you meet a good opponent, you will display your acting skills even more."

"So I hope they're all good."

It was Yi Guangyuan's turn to take over the microphone, and this actor was much simpler and ruder, he just said, "I am not afraid of failure, I am a mountain, no matter how many people challenge me, I will always stand here! "

As soon as these words were uttered, there was an exclamation from the audience, and the soundtrack on the scene became tense. A close-up shot was shown on Yi Guangyuan whose eyes were burning with flames of war, and Qi Xiao who was next to him opened his mouth in cooperation.

Yi Guangyuan's domineering and leaky lines were naturally discussed in advance. The program should not be too serious or too mediocre, it needs a neutralizing agent.

Compared with Xiao Jitong and Qi Xiao, Yi Guangyuan has less seniority and has the least burden on him, so he is the most suitable seasoning.

Sure enough, as soon as such rhetoric came out, the sense of variety in the entire show overflowed the screen in an instant.

"Thank you three for your perfect answers."

Zhang Ming took over the right to speak at this time, and said: "Next, each of our actors who come to this stage has already made preparations. Let us find out what kind of trump cards they have brought."

After finishing the interlude lines, he turned sideways to give up a position, and the camera moved forward to the big screen. At the same time, his introduction sounded.

"Among today's first contestants, there is an amazing one. She was admitted to Beijing Film Academy at the age of 16, and she is also the No. 30 rookie actor nominated for the [-]st Academy Award. She is Shu Tingting!"

The sound fell, and the big screen changed instantly, and the character introduction about Shu Tingting began to play.

In the film and television videos of past performances, some wonderful clips have been edited and are being broadcast with flashes.

Some young audience members in the audience applauded after hearing this name, which shows how popular and popular she is.

"Her opponent is Guang Kai, a popular new actor who starred in a multi-broadcast hit drama last year and is known as a handsome man in ancient costume!"

The big screen rolled again, and the light and shadow material named Guangkai began to play, but compared to Shu Tingting's introduction, the audience was much quieter this time.

Because many people have never heard of the name Guangkai!
Compared with Shu Tingting, although Guang Kai is also a young actor, his debut time is too short. He only appeared in a few hit dramas last year, but they were all supporting roles, and there were not many roles. Many audiences loved him. It's just in a state of familiarity, far from being a fan.

Even some people who don't like to watch dramas or are busy with work don't even know when there will be such an extra actor in Huaguo.

The three tutors and the ten members of the review team were not all confused, but they only had a brief look at the actor's profile the day before the show started—that is, yesterday.

In fact, Guang Kai is not bad looking, but in the entertainment industry where handsome men and beautiful women gather, he is far from amazing.

Of course, among ordinary people, it is definitely at the school grass level, the kind of girl who throws herself on her body desperately.

As for Shu Tingting, she was much more amazing. Although she had a knife on her face, she moved it perfectly. In this age of looking at faces, no one cares whether your good-looking face is pure natural or not. As long as you look good, it's ok.

It's a bit weird to think that two actors who rely on their appearances to compete in the first competition in the show "The Birth of an Actor" no matter whether it's the audience or everyone on the stage, their expressions are very constipated.

Wang Shi glanced at Zheng Xia behind the main monitor, but said nothing.

He knew what Zheng Xia was thinking, she just came to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV as a job-hopping, and was eager to make a success, fearing that the ratings would not increase, so he arranged for two very popular young fresh meat to play against each other in the first show to attract traffic. But is it really the right thing to do?Do viewers really want to see this?

In fact, Wang Shi didn't know, and he couldn't figure out the tastes of the current audience. The market was always changing, and the program had already been recorded here, so it wouldn't help if he stopped it now like an afterthought.

"Okay, the actor is here, the performance begins!"

After some introductions, the program finally got into the theme, Zhang Ming quietly left the stage and went to the audience to watch.

On the stage at this time, the curtain behind rose up, revealing the already arranged venue and the two actors who had been preparing for a long time.

The original play that Shu Tingting and Guang Kai will perform this round is "Love in the 80s". Just by the name, you can tell that it has a history, and this play is also the work of the mentor Qi Xiaogang when he debuted.

Seeing that the two of them were going to perform this play, Qi Xiao, who was on the instructor's seat, also smiled, covering her forehead with an unexpected expression.

"Shufen! Just follow me, my father said, as long as you marry me, my house will build a new house immediately!"

"What are you doing! Li Tiezhu, let me go!"

"Shufen, please, give me a chance!"

"You...you let me think again."

"..."

On the stage, two handsome actors, wearing colorful padded jackets, are "playing" with each other.

In order to highlight the simplicity of the times, Shu Tingting also wore a bunch of braids.

However, the audience still enjoyed the drama, because these two people are not born in the [-]s, but they are still from the city. They have never experienced that era, and they do not have the simple temperament of rural talents.

……

in the background.

in the lounge.

He Xiao and An Cheng were also watching the play, but they both showed meaningful smiles at the same time.

An Cheng managed to save face for them and said, "This topic is really not friendly to Shu Tingting and Guang Kai. They are too young to have experienced that era."

In fact, An Cheng's heart was quite sour.

No matter how bad Shu Tingting's acting is, she is very popular and has a huge number of fans, and she can be searched for any gossip.

His acting skills are good, and he even won the Best Actor Award, but he is just lukewarm, so who can he justify?
Everyone is an actor, but real actors are not appreciated, and actors who rely on face are popular, this society is so fucked.

He Xiao licked his dry lips and sighed: "Yes, post-[-] generation like us have never experienced those things, so it's really difficult to act."

Of course he wouldn't tell the truth, criticizing others for their poor acting skills was not because of his words, but because the cameras in the room were recording them!
"Boom boom boom!"

While An Cheng and He Xiao were watching the TV broadcast, there was a knock on the door in the lounge, and a staff member walked in and said, "Mr. It's time to play!"

According to the original plan, the competition between He Xiao and An Cheng was in the second round, after Shu Tingting and Guang Kai, but now for unknown reasons, it has been adjusted to the third round.

An Cheng and He Xiao naturally don't care, the first appearance is the same, they are not rookies participating in the draft, they are old fritters, so there is no nervousness or not.

On the contrary, the two were quite happy, so they could touch fish in the lounge for a while longer.

……

at this time.

Front desk.

Shu Tingting is still playing with Guang Kai, the two of them are getting more and more excited, their emotions are released, and their lines are getting louder and louder, it's almost like the actor and actress alive...

Above, these are themselves in their eyes.

In fact, what the audience sees is: these two little fresh meat Xiaohuadan are staring at each other with big eyes, and then reciting lines with broken voices.

There is one thing to say, the acting is really embarrassing.

At the instructor's seat, Qi Xiao's face had already darkened.

After the performance was over and Zhang Ming came back to play, Qi Xiao took the lead to pick up the microphone and started to comment.

"With all due respect, I can't see the release of emotions in you, especially Shu Tingting. You are playing the role I played back then. When I see you, I seem to see myself back then, but I can't believe this. It's me, because you are not as good as I was back then, and my templates are all there, so you can follow suit!"

Qi Xiao immediately went into a rage, and there was a brutal interrogation when he came up, it was so sudden.

The two people on the stage were stunned, especially Shu Tingting. She was still smiling after the performance just now, but now she restrained herself and was a little at a loss.

At the scene, a progressive and tense soundtrack sounded, and the atmosphere was suddenly heightened to the extreme.

Yi Guangyuan next to him stood up at this time, patted the table and said, "Qi Xiao, you played the role you played because of Shu Tingting. You were too harsh on her. I think she played very well!"

"Do you understand opera?" Qi Xiao looked at Yi Guangyuan again, and replied without hesitation: "Yi Guangyuan, do you think this opera is good?"

"I think it's good!" Yi Guangyuan didn't show any weakness.

At this time, the two instructors stopped talking, and looked at each other, exuding their respective auras.

The entire recording scene fell silent. Zhang Ming, the review team and others were all stunned. Shu Tingting and Guang Kai on stage were even more at a loss.

And just when the atmosphere on the stage reached a critical point, and it seemed that the two confronting people were about to fight each other in the next moment, Yi Guangyuan and Qi Xiao suddenly looked at each other and smiled, and they hugged each other, saying: "Tingting, yes I didn't want to scare you, Qi Xiao and I are Shifan, let's talk about the scene between the two of you just now, isn't it realistic?"

"Hi! I was taken aback!" Zhang Ming joked aside.

The atmosphere at the scene instantly relaxed again, and some audience members understood what was going on, and wiped off their sweat one by one.

"I thought there was going to be a fight!"

"Yeah, I was shocked!"

"As expected of a professional actor, Mr. Qi Xiao and Mr. Yi Guangyuan acted so realistically!"

"It scared me to death. I dare not even say a word about that aura."

……

He Xiao in the lounge also suddenly realized that even just now he thought that there was a real quarrel at the recording site.

"Director Zheng's bad taste."

An Cheng crossed his arms and couldn't help laughing.

Obviously, if the two mentors make such a fuss, the effect of the show will indeed explode, and whoever takes it seriously will lose.

On the TV broadcast, the progress of the next program began to speed up. After rounds of comments, the audience voting channel was opened. The final result was Shu Tingting with 163 votes and Guangkai with 137 votes, with Shu Tingting leading the way.

In the tutor voting session, Guangkai got the approval of Yi Guangyuan alone, while Shu Tingting got the approval of the other two.

In other words, whether it is the audience vote or the tutor vote, Shu Tingting wins.

She won the right to challenge the mentor and successfully advanced.

The mentor she chose to challenge was Qi Xiao.

After the two were sent off with applause, the second group of contestants also took the stage. These two are relatively well-known young actors in China. They are not fresh meat, but they are not considered capable.

After all, not all actors with average looks are called capable.

Their performances can be said to be quite satisfactory, but they are also better than the first group of Shu Tingting who can only make people stand out every minute.

In the end, the young actor Liu Zhendong won by ten votes, and he chose to challenge Mr. Yi Guangyuan.

And the recording process has come here, and it has been more than an hour since the beginning.

The audience in the audience couldn't sit still anymore, their minds were a little distracted, not to mention the exaggeration of drowsiness, but there were not a few people who wanted to pee.

"It's kind of boring."

"Yeah, I can't see the feeling of bursting acting skills!"

"Can't the show crew find two real talents to compete with each other?"

"By the way, why didn't I see He Xiao?"

"Should be the next one to appear?"

"..."

The audience was discussing listlessly.

……

And at the same moment, backstage.

"Teachers, it's time for us to play!"

The staff began to issue admission notices.

He Xiao, who drank tea in the lounge for an hour, stretched, then said hello, and exchanged glances with An Cheng, who was wearing a flying fish suit, the two smiled at each other, and walked to the front desk together.

"The Birth of an Actor", here I come!
