You made me a superstar

Chapter 141 The role of human doctor

Christian is a middle-aged director in his 40s. He is wearing a suit and has a beard. He sits on a chair with his back slightly arched, smoking a cigar and looking at Zhou Yang.

After the film "April on Earth" won the Palme d'Or in Cannes, France, he neither attended the celebration banquet nor accepted any interviews with reporters. Instead, after handing over the Palme d'Or trophy to his assistant, he took the script and came to the Zhou Yang was waiting in Huang Jiacheng's room.

Since the premiere of "Mine Bottom", the chairman of the 56th Berlin International Film Festival, Charlotte Seri, has been recommending "Mine Bottom" everywhere to help sell the film, and Christian is naturally among the recommended ranks.

Christian watched "The Bottom of the Mine". From his critical point of view, "The Bottom of the Mine" was very immature, with many loopholes in technique, lack of tension at the level of the actors, and a trace of acting in it. Many people's acting skills are quite jerky, but on the whole, "Mine Bottom" is indeed a very satirical realistic documentary film.

Christian didn't pay attention at the time, and later, when "The Raven" premiered, he watched "The Raven" again.

He actually doesn't like this movie, it's gloomy and depressing, the overall plot lacks a sense of sublimation, and the whole story reflects the darkness of an era, which makes the movie look a bit ugly as a whole, and lacks a sense of completeness...

But it wasn't without surprises.

When Huang Degui, played by Zhou Yang, appeared, Christian discovered that the young supporting role in "Mine Bottom" could actually act like a middle-aged man across ages. Although it was still jerky, the performance was extremely tense and very enjoyable. , even a picky person like him thinks this young man has a bright future.

On the red carpet in Cannes, he finally met this young man.

Let his eyes light up.

Huang Degui in the movie and Zhou Yang in real life, both in appearance and temperament, have an astonishing difference, almost like a schizophrenic difference!

This made him see a possibility from Zhou Yang...

Before the Cannes awards gala, he had been wondering whether his role as the elegant, personable cannibal doctor in "Lamb" could be given to this young man.

Once this idea appeared, he could hardly restrain it, he desperately wanted to talk to this young man...

"April on Earth" won the Palme d'Or.

After winning...

Christian was neither excited nor happy, but calmly finished his acceptance speech.

He is a frequent visitor to Cannes. Although it is the first time he has won the Palme d'Or, he has no interest in the movie "April on Earth".

From seeing the script to the completion of filming, Christian filmed with a feeling of irritability and depression, and even didn't want to shoot several times.

The movie reflects a story about abortion in Romania. In essence, Christian feels that "April on Earth" has the same problem as "The Crow", which exaggerates the darkness of society, which is a bit ugly. Although the actors are all professional, he feels very It’s not addicting, the reason why I made this movie was because of the begging of my screenwriter friend, it’s kind of kind...

He likes that kind of crime-themed movie, and prefers the sense of reality in the bloody excitement, especially when exploring a person's twisted spiritual world, and then in the twisted story, he becomes a demon in human skin...

He doesn't deny that his psychology is perverted, but it doesn't matter, he likes it like this!

He has been preparing the movie "Lamb" for five years!
For five years, he has been perfecting and preparing for this movie, and every movie scene has formed a specific picture in his mind...

He clearly decomposes every character, every shooting scene, and even what to shoot every second!
then……

All the actors are almost in place, only one villain is missing!
He doesn't have high requirements for the protagonist, and he doesn't have high requirements for the heroine. What really requires high is the villain...

First of all!

This villain must be sick in his heart. A sickness is not a perversion or a mental illness, but a sense of division that originates from the depths of his soul. But he needs to be very elegant on the surface, looks personable, likes to read books, Symphony, like to walk, like an elegant gentleman aristocrat...

At first he positioned the candidate as British.

In the past five years, he has come into contact with countless outstanding British actors. However, they are either too gentlemanly in their performances, or too deliberate in pathology. They are acting completely according to the script and lack the soul that a character should have. After searching for a long time, he finally regrettably changed the positioning of the British to the French...

The French advocate romance, have literary qualities, have a humorous style and a personable temperament, which should be possible in theory, but after actually getting in touch with them, he found that the French are naturally free and unrestrained in their bones, and at the same time they cannot conceal their unrestrained and lack of enthusiasm. a sense of mystery...

After each idea was shattered, Christian finally stopped being obsessed with European Caucasians, and even once thought about using blacks to try...

But it was a pity that every time he waited with hope, he was met with disappointment again and again in the end. Five years passed just like that.

..............................

Zhou Yang couldn't understand the script of "The Lamb".

The script is in pure English, which is very unfriendly to him.

It was only after Huang Jiacheng called a translator that he barely understood the script outline of "The Lamb"...

After reading it, Zhou Yang fell silent.

When he was in college, he once watched a movie called "Red Dragon". After watching "Red Dragon", Zhou Yang watched "The Silence of the Lambs" and then watched the prequel...

Zhou Yang's memory is not very good. Zhou Yang has almost forgotten the plots of the two movies in the original world. The only thing that impressed Zhou Yang most was the handsome and polite old man.

He remembered that the actor named Anthony Hopkins was a very good actor in the original world.

Christian's "Lamb" is similar to the character in "Red Dragon", both are cannibal doctors.

The only difference is that Hannibal in "Red Dragon" is a psychiatrist, while the doctor in Christian's "Lamb" is a respected anatomy doctor.

"How is it?" Huang Jiacheng asked subconsciously when Zhou Yang stopped reading the script.

"Is the role director Christian asked me to try this cannibal doctor named Franks?" Zhou Yang looked at Huang Jiacheng and then at Christian.

"Yes." Huang Jiacheng nodded.

"It's very difficult. I probably can't do it. Let's find someone else." The image of Hannibal played by Anthony Hopkins flashed in Zhou Yang's mind, and Zhou Yang finally shook his head.

He is a rookie who has just entered the industry for less than a year. He can play Huang Degui well because he has many such characters around him. He is immersed in it very quickly and imitates it very quickly. However, let him play a character like Hannibal. , Zhou Yang can't do it at all.

That requires an innate aristocratic atmosphere, a noble temperament from the inside out.

Zhou Yang has seen very few elegant people in his previous life and in this life. He is even very unfamiliar with terms like "noble". How can he act like that?
Imagination?

No, the only ones who imagined out of thin air are the nobles of Shamate!

Thinking of killing Matt, Zhou Yang suddenly felt cold all over his body.

"Don't try to challenge it? This role is well played. With Christian's energy, it's no problem for you to win a personal award..." Huang Jiacheng chuckled.

"No, no, it's too nonsense..." Zhou Yang continued to shake his head, naturally he knew how much he weighed.

"Fine!"

in the room.

Huang Jiacheng asked the translator to translate Zhou Yang's meaning to Christian.

After listening to Christian, although he knew that the result was probably the same, he still felt a little indescribably disappointed.

However, after looking at Zhou Yang's image, Christian was quite unwilling.

He felt that Zhou Yang's temperament still fit a little bit, at least a little more suitable than the black brother he saw before...

Moreover, the fact that the Louis Vuitton brand invited Zhou Yang seemed to show from the side that Zhou Yang was indeed excellent in all aspects!

"Mr. Zhou, what do you think of the role of Franks? If you are not allowed to read the script, how about just explaining the role?" Christian didn't want to miss any suitable candidate. Unfortunately, he still asked this problem.

When the translator threw this question to Zhou Yang, Zhou Yang touched his hands and asked, "Which aspect is it?"

"Do you think Franks is a pervert?"

"From the perspective of a bystander, Franks is a pervert, but from his own point of view, Franks should be a normal person, and the real sickness should be this world..." Zhou Yang sat on the chair, After contemplating for a long time, recalling the image of Hannibal in his mind, and recalling the fragmentary plots of "Red Dragon Prequel", combined with a netizen commenting on the character Hannibal deep in his memory, Zhou Yang replied.

"Oh? Go on, what kind of person do you think Franks is?" Christian seldom heard such an answer from someone, so he suddenly became interested.

"Can I just say whatever I want?" Zhou Yang hesitated.

"Okay!" Christian nodded.

"I think there is something missing deep in his heart, um, how should I put it, I thought of a vague plot, that is, a normal teenager was displaced during the war with his sister, and finally witnessed a group of soldiers dying under starvation. , Divided his sister up... Seeing evil at a young age, countless emotions washed over his soul, causing a subtle change in his young heart..." Zhou Yang closed his eyes.

He tried his best to recall the plot he remembered, and then told the story in his heart bit by bit in the memory.

not far away.

Christian's originally smiling face became serious in an instant, and he silently put down his cigar.
