Superior Skills [Entertainment Circle]

Xiao Zhaolin lowered his eyes to think for a moment, and finally said calmly to An An: "Go to the Second Hospital instead. There is a doctor I used to see often, and I occasionally go to him for checkups in recent years."

An An nodded, then stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the second hospital.

When the two arrived, Dr. He was already waiting there. After a short inspection, he noticed that Xiao Zhaolin's hair on the side was a little strange, so he stretched out his hand to take a look, and wondered, "Why are you a little scratched and bruised? "

Xiao Zhaolin was stunned: "Scratches and bruises?"

An An rushed up immediately, and looked down at the position pointed by the doctor, "What's going on? When did you hit your head?"

Xiao Zhaolin: "Ah, what are you talking about, haven't they left yet? I looked in the mirror this morning and thought they were gone. A few days ago when I was performing a scene, the bookshelf next to me fell down. It was knocked at that time. It's not serious."

Dr. He accidentally glanced at him approvingly: "It's not serious, what you say doesn't matter, let's have an examination first."

When he came back from the examination, the results were not available so soon, so Dr. He took Xiao Zhaolin to the table and sat down, flipped through a set of reference books, pointed to it and said, "Come on, old rules."

As soon as Xiao Zhaolin saw those forms and cards, he felt very familiar, and said with a smile, "Okay, I feel like I haven't tested them for a while."

It was a set of commonly used memory scales. Xiao Zhaolin always got very low scores when he did this when his memory was at its worst. Later, when he became an adult, his memory was relatively better, and his test scores were slightly raised.

This time, after calculating the scores, Dr. He smiled and said, "It seems that your memory has improved compared to before."

Xiao Zhaolin and An An looked at each other, thinking that Xiao Zhaolin's memory had deteriorated again, but Dr. He's answer was the opposite.

"The last time you did this, only less than half of them were correct. This time, most of them were correct, and less than 20% of them were completely forgetful."

Xiao Zhaolin showed surprise: "But I obviously forgot my lines when I was filming, and I remembered those lines before."

Dr. He glanced at him: "Did you remember those lines after reading them once?"

Xiao Zhaolin nodded: "After reading it for the first time and memorizing it, I will read it frequently and ponder it when I have free time. It can be said that I have always remembered it."

Dr. He was noncommittal, casually opened a tablet next to it, clicked on it a few times, and handed it to Xiao Zhaolin: "Have you seen the movie "Awakening in March"?" After Xiao Zhaolin shook his head in denial, he said, "Then watch this video from beginning to end."

Xiao Zhaolin accepted it according to his words. The plot of the movie is not complicated. It is about a young teacher who came to teach in a new school. He had a conversation with the grade dean. The other end ran over, and the three of them had another conversation.

The video lasted only 2 minutes. Xiao Zhaolin returned the tablet to Dr. He in doubt after watching it. Dr. He put a blank piece of paper in front of him and handed him a pen: "Try to write what they said just now. When the lines are written, try to write them word for word from beginning to end."

Xiao Zhaolin nodded, took it and immediately started writing.

The movies and TV series he has watched, as long as the lines of the drama itself are not poorly written, he can usually remember it after watching it once. What's more, the video just now is less than 2 minutes long, so it should be a piece of cake for him. dish.

After he finished writing, he handed the paper back to Dr. He. After reading it, Dr. He thought about it, and suddenly asked, "What's the name of the new teacher?"

Xiao Zhaolin was taken aback, hesitated for a second and replied, "Teacher Zhang."

Dr. He shook his head: "I'm asking for his full name."

Xiao Zhaolin frowned and thought about it for a while, and roughly went through the conversation just now in his mind. He didn't remember the name in it, so he could only say: "It seems that the teacher's name was never mentioned."

Dr. He didn't say anything, he folded the piece of paper and put it under the paperweight, and gave Xiao Zhaolin a new piece of paper: "Please write their conversation again and show me."

Xiao Zhaolin didn't expect that Dr. He would ask him the teacher's name first, and then asked him to rewrite the dialogue. His forehead was full of doubts, and he hesitated before starting to write.

After finishing writing, he handed it to Dr. He, who took out the one that was pressed under the paperweight for comparison, and handed it back to Xiao Zhaolin after reading it, "You can see for yourself."

Xiao Zhaolin looked side to side, with a look of surprise on his face, "Doctor, this..."

The two sheets of paper were laid out flat on the table, and their meanings were almost the same, but if you carefully distinguish them, you will find that the lines written for the second time are missing some words and modal particles.

The interval between these two dictation was very short, Xiao Zhaolin had never tried to forget words so quickly before, he frowned and looked at the second piece of paper carefully, trying to recall carefully why some words were missed when writing.

Dr. He took the two pieces of paper back: "There is no need to continue reading."

An An naturally also saw the subtle difference in the two dictation, and said worriedly: "Doctor, what is going on with Zhaolin? You just said that his memory has improved a bit, but he just forgot the second line in a short period of time. Got some?"

Dr. He waved his hand: "Don't worry, listen to me a little bit." He pointed to the two pieces of paper with lines written in his hand, "I asked your teacher's name just now, right?"

Xiao Zhaolin nodded, feeling very puzzled: "But... I really don't remember mentioning the teacher's name."

Dr. He: "Are you sure?"

Xiao Zhaolin: "..."

Xiao Zhaolin couldn't remember it. He was trying to think about it carefully, but he heard Dr. He laughingly said: "Don't worry, let me tell you, the teacher's name was never mentioned in the video."

Xiao Zhaolin was surprised and said, "The teacher's name was not mentioned, so you, the doctor..." Why did you ask?

But before he finished speaking, he suddenly widened his eyes as if suddenly enlightened.

He used to be able to memorize the lines after seeing them once, remembering is remembering, word for word, so he never doubted this kind of "remembering", but this time, because the doctor asked him "teacher's What's the name?", he actually had doubts about the answer, so that when he wrote it silently for the second time, he tried hard to recall whether he had mentioned such a thing.

That is to say, even though he wrote complete lines silently for the first time, he no longer believes in this kind of memory as much as he used to.

Various guesses flashed through Xiao Zhaolin's mind, and he said slowly, "Doctor, do I... I can't remember my lines anymore?"

Dr. He looked at Xiao Zhaolin who was still calm, and did not miss the unease that flashed in the other's eyes.

"It's not that serious." The doctor said slowly, "I think it's inaccurate to say that you can't remember the lines. Combined with the fact that your memory is getting better, I'm more inclined that your memory is gradually returning to normal. level."

Xiao Zhaolin was a little dazed: "The level of a normal person? You mean, my memory may change back to be like a normal person? For example, I can remember people's names normally, remember who this person is, and remember things. ?”

Dr. He nodded: "Judging from the scores of the memory scale, there is indeed this trend. Whether it is affected by knocking on the head will not be known until the official results of the examination are released."

Xiao Zhaolin looked straight at the doctor, with a gleam in his eyes, "Is that so? I thought I couldn't even remember the lines... So the memory back to normal means that I remember the lines after watching it once." Will the ability disappear?"

Dr. He looked back calmly: "Of course, memorizing the lines after reading it once is a very special ability."

Xiao Zhaolin nodded slowly, with a smile on his face: "This ability has been rewarded to me for so many years, it seems that God is going to take it back."

After listening to the conversation between the two of them, An An knew that Xiao Zhaolin did not have memory loss, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Doctor, will the process of restoring his normal memory affect his work in acting?"

Dr. He smiled gently: "I don't know if there are other influences, but I think in terms of acting, he didn't need to bother memorizing his lines before, but now he has to work hard to memorize the lines like everyone else, like a student. "

Later, the results of several tests came out and it was confirmed that there was no serious problem. Dr. He asked Xiao Zhaolin to come back for another checkup in a few days, and asked him to pay more attention to the changes in his memory.

After explaining everything, An An took Xiao Zhaolin to leave. After getting in the car, she looked at him calmly with his eyes closed, but saw that his face was the same as before, but she probably felt that there was a huge wave in her heart.

For someone who originally had such an ability, but it disappeared all of a sudden, it must be a lie if he said no regrets in his heart.

Moreover, Xiao Zhaolin has been acting like this for so many years. Now that the shooting is imminent, he has to get used to everything in a short time and learn to master this lost and recovered memory. What impact will this change have on his accustomed performance? Not yet known.

An An watched Xiao Zhaolin hesitate to speak, Xiao Zhaolin opened his eyes to meet her gaze, understood her worry, so he smiled and comforted him: "It's okay, why don't you just memorize a book? Everyone memorizes it like this, I don't know what to say." I’ve been memorizing lines for so long, I should be content.”

An An frowned and said: "Others have been used to memorizing memorization since childhood, and you have never memorized lines before."

Xiao Zhaolin shook his head: "People can recite it, but I can't recite it for no reason. If I can't recite it once, I can recite it several times."

As a matter of fact, there is really no other way to memorize lines than to memorize more. You can't set up a word board on the shooting site. When Bai Jianli didn't die of anger on the spot, Xiao Zhaolin himself would be ashamed to death.

The two had their own concerns, and before they knew it, the car had already driven back to the hotel where the crew stayed.

An An worriedly told her for a long time, Xiao Zhaolin finally sent her away, and leaned quietly in the corner alone for a while.

An An used to love to worry about all kinds of things for him, but recently he finally managed to bring him up a bit. The company showed signs of relying on her for her ability, and sent her two new recruits with potential. He intended to distract her at this time, so he didn't show a negative attitude from the beginning to the end.

But not being negative doesn't mean that he can immediately enter a role of being active.

In fact, he is not worried about whether he needs to get used to memorizing the lines as soon as possible. What he feels worried about is actually the performance itself.

It is not accurate enough to say that he could remember it after watching it once before. In fact, he never deliberately thought about whether he remembered it. , as if that was what he wanted to say subconsciously, and he blurted it out smoothly during the performance.

Now that this ability is gone, will the performance that he relies on for survival also disappear?He is no longer sure whether his acting skills are good because of the bad lines or because he has really passed the test.

As an actor, what he fears is that he will lose the connection with the character and be unable to grasp the essence of the character.

Xiao Zhaolin stood there quietly, his eyes casually falling in front of him, and he didn't know how long he thought about it, when he suddenly heard someone call his name, and his thoughts were interrupted by the voice.

"Zhaolin? Why are you standing here?"

Xiao Zhaolin followed the sound and saw Bai Jianli and He Chuansheng walking up the steps of the hotel. They were a little surprised when they saw him.

It was only then that Xiao Zhaolin realized that it was getting late and it was getting dark outside. It seemed that today's shooting task had been completed.

Xiao Zhaolin raised his spirits and smiled, "Teacher Bai and Teacher He, have you eaten yet?"

Bai Jianli didn't speak, but He Chuansheng glanced at his old partner, haha ​​took over the conversation: "I'm a little tired of eating box lunch for a few days, so I'll bring you, Mr. Bai, to the hotel to try the buffet here."

Xiao Zhaolin nodded: "Then you two should hurry up and eat."

He Chuansheng looked around and asked in confusion, "Have you eaten already? Why are you alone?"

Xiao Zhaolin thought about what it means to be alone: ​​"I haven't eaten yet, I'll go later."

He Chuansheng gasped, and wondered, "Has Liang Ye finished eating?"

Xiao Zhaolin was confused when he heard this: "Liang Ye? What does it matter to him?"

He Chuansheng was also confused by him: "Didn't Liang Ye come to visit the class? He heard that you had a rest in the afternoon. Didn't he come to the hotel to see you? Didn't you two have dinner together?"

Xiao Zhaolin froze on the spot: "You said he came to me? No... But I... eh, I didn't see him."
