under fame

The community where Lu Huai and Zhang Li live is about an hour's drive from the city center, and the time of traffic jams ranges from two hours to uncertain.There are a large area of ​​single-family villas in this area, and the vegetation in the community is extremely rich. Many super-large trees were transplanted from nowhere, covering the periphery of the villa circle with lush greenery and excellent privacy.Although every villa has at least two parking spaces, there is still a large underground parking lot here. The underground parking lot is like a maze, which seems to be specially designed to get rid of the cars that follow. Many celebrities are willing to buy properties here.Lu Huai bought a small building here half a year ago, and three months later, Zhang Li bought another building two streets away.Under Lu Huai's small building, there was a limited edition Lambo and a big Benz RV, and Zhang Li bought two identical cars.It is no wonder that Lu Huai's fans quarreled with Zhang Li's fans with such naked/naked imitations, and they would attack each other with sentences like "Can your idol stop learning from Lu Huai?"

Now Lu Huai was driving to the airport in the company's black SUV, while Zhang Li picked up the smoking espresso from under the capsule coffee machine, opened the school schedule he received last night, and took a look. Then I made a phone call to the broker.

"Lu Huai, your so-called friend is Zhang Li? Why don't you say anything!" A few hours later, as soon as Lu Huai got off the plane and turned on his phone, he saw Wu Dongxu's questioning, and quickly called to apologize.

"Ms. Wu, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I didn't expect him to go so soon. I wanted to ask you to have a meal with you. I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Lu Huai took off the mask and walked out while talking soundtrack.

"Is he free to come to the class? Don't go fishing for three days and spend two days drying the net. If you arrive late and leave early, it won't affect you well." Wu Dongxu on the other end calmed down, but his tone sounded like he wanted to push back the favor he was given. .

"Ms. Wu's professional courses are hard to come by, and he won't do it." Lu Huai hurriedly said, "He already knew that his acting skills were lacking, and it's because he didn't have the opportunity to learn. He begged me for help, and he was always in a circle, looking up and not bowing his head. See, I'm embarrassed to push, please, teacher."

Wu Dongxu couldn't stand the flattery and pleas of this proud student, "Tell him to keep a low profile, attend class on time, and don't invite fans."

"Oh, I see. Don't worry."

Lu Huai put down his phone, imagined the scene of Zhang Li going to class, smiled wantonly at the airport exit, and waved to the fans who picked him up.

After sneaking out of Lu Huai's house, Zhang Li went home and changed his clothes, drank a cup of coffee to refresh himself, then called his agent and had a hard time with his manager for a long time, then sent the acting class schedule to his assistant, and rearranged himself According to the schedule, he took a car and drove into the film school with full armor.

For young fresh meat like Zhang Li, those who want to learn acting skills are really rare. The main reason is that they don't need to learn to make money every day, and secondly, they don't have the time at all.Fortunately, Zhang Li's company is an established movie company called Xingchen. It not only wants to make money, but also needs to be awarded and internationalized, so the agent can agree.If a small company relies entirely on a star to support the pillar, the star himself has to block it if he wants to learn from the company. After all, the pillar makes less money, which means the company makes less money. With fierce competition, the situation may change every moment In the entertainment industry, the most reassuring money is money in the pocket.Who knows what news will come out tomorrow, and it will fall from heaven to hell in one fell swoop. Thanks to entertainment companies like Xingchen who can afford it, small companies can't bear it even once.

Industry experts like Wu Dongxu are certainly not satisfied with today's film and television industry.In recent years, a large amount of money has entered this industry, and the production speed of movies and TV series is as fast as commodities on the assembly line.It is too easy to make money, and the students of the acting department are also affected by the industry. Few of them become impetuous and calm down. It is incomparable with more than ten years ago.This industry is booming, the investment is getting bigger and bigger, and it can be hundreds of millions at every turn. However, the result is that there are too few good dramas and too few good actors. It's a good show, and it has market influence. The actors in it can be counted on ten fingers.

So when Wu Dongxu walked into the classroom and saw Zhang Li sitting in the class of the acting department with a typical paralyzed face, she felt a little relieved in her heart. She felt that there was still a little hope in this industry. .

When Zhang Li nodded to Wu Dongxu, he didn't raise much career ideals. What he thought in his heart was that this is Lu Huai's teacher, so he had to be polite so as not to be nagged by Lu Huai.Then he heard the voices of the students in the film and television performance class of the acting department talking about him in private.He turned his eyes away from Wu Dongxu, walked around among dozens of classmates, and saw Jiang Xiaoyu at once, thinking that he was really pretty, that big bastard Lu Huai.Then he calmly smiled at a few classmates who were peeking at him, and then leaned against the railing at the end of the classroom.

The students of the film academy see domestic stars as often as they go out to eat out of school, and only freshmen are interested in stars.And Zhang Li probably doesn't know what the freshmen's interest in him is. One is that his face is really small, two is that he can see for himself how bad his acting skills are later, and three is how casual he is. It doesn't matter if you come in to listen easily.

Jiang Xiaoyu thought at the time, this person looks familiar, and then she instantly remembered the news that appeared when she searched for "Lu Huai". Well, it seems that it was always reported that she was at odds with Lu Huai, and she deliberately avoided it when she attended events together. Talk to that competitor.Thinking of this, she sneaked a glance at Zhang Li.How should I put it, very handsome.However, he is not as handsome as Lu Huai, who is a little cute and arouses people's desire to protect.Jiang Xiaoyu's unobtrusive sneak peek met Zhang Li's eyes, Zhang Li smiled friendly, she immediately lowered her head, thinking that this person looks very cute, how could she not deal with Lu Huai? .

Wu Dongxu coughed lightly, and the slightly noisy discussion below subsided.She glanced at the group of freshmen, and asked the first question of the formal class, "Students who come to the acting department should all devote themselves to becoming actors in the future. So, what kind of actors do you want to be?"

"Of course he is a good actor who plays what he looks like and has passed the test professionally."

Wu Dongxu looked at the first person who spoke, "Su Yang, that's pretty good. Are there any students who want to express their opinions?"

"I want to be an actor who can arouse people's emotions, make the audience laugh, make the audience cry, and let them get more emotional experience from my performance outside of life. Life is dull, but art is shining infinitely bright."

This male voice was very clear and magnetic, which attracted Zhang Li to glance at him.This boy has handsome features and a slightly childish face, which doesn't match his voice.

"Du Ran," Wu Dongxu nodded, "You speak very well, too."

Zhang Li looked at Du Ran carefully, and thought, this kid has an abstinent and indifferent temperament, which is really the look that directors of literary films would like.

Several students spoke one after another. Wu Dongxu saw Jiang Xiaoyu bit his lower lip, so he asked, "Jiang Xiaoyu, how about you?"

"Teacher." Jiang Xiaoyu hesitated for a while, and said, "Actually, I think life is not easy. If I can really become a good actor, I hope to forget my own life in the process of performing different roles, and my The performers become one, and experience their joy and their pain. I feel that in the process of performing, I am not me, and I can forget me, which makes me very excited and makes me love this feeling.”

Zhang Li was stunned, he thought, girl, your life is a bit heavy.

Bai Rushui stared at Jiang Xiaoyu for a while, and then continued, "I think being an actor is a profession that consumes oneself. It ignites one's soul in the drama. We are like the firecrackers in the fireworks. /Medicine burns us, and the illusion released is the scenery in everyone's eyes. If you are like Xiao Yu, who loves the process of consuming yourself, then the actor is also a great pleasure."

Wu Dongxu smiled, "Xiao Yu, you seem to be answering a bit out of question."

Jiang Xiaoyu's cheeks were a little flushed, and Wu Dongxu said, "You guys are all very thoughtful, and they all have good ideas. However, these metaphysical ideas really have to be based on your ability to act and perform well. on the basis."

"Glotowski, the founder of poor theater, divided actors into two categories, 'geisha actors' and 'sacred actors'. The former refers to the accumulation of skills and the exchange of their bodies for wealth and fame. The latter is It is said that the performance of art is completed with the spirit of sacrifice and dedication, and the psychological and physical obstacles in the process of playing a role are removed with the ascetic "self-deep". To be a holy actor, technology is of course indispensable, but technology is only the first The first step is what you have to forget after you have learned it here. It should be integrated into your body like your natural ability to eat and drink. This training is extremely difficult, and you need a lot of energy. Perseverance. And after acquiring such basic skills, your acting will enter a more difficult stage, which is a hard work on the soul.”

As Wu Dongxu spoke, Zhang Li straightened his body unconsciously, and muttered in his heart, I'm stupid, so I can't even be a geisha.

"Teacher, I have a question." The boy named Du Ran just now raised his hand. "Many people say that actors need talent, and some people don't need training, they can act like what they are born with. If this is the case, maybe we can't compare with such people in a lifetime of study."

"En!" Qin Fan echoed, "Just like Zhou Meisheng, she was scouted out to act at the age of 15, and she won an award that year. Isn't this a talent?"

Wu Dongxu frowned, and then said solemnly, "Students, there must be geniuses in this world. Every industry has those talented people, and the fact is cruel, they will reach the pinnacle of the industry. But what is talent? ?It is either innate or has nothing to do with you. So it is not something you need to think about. For acting, what you need is to practice constantly and make up for the lack of acting skills through long-term hard training. Acting, Anyone can do it if you want it and with a lot of willpower."

After Zhang Li heard this, the corners of his mouth moved slightly. He felt that although Wu Dongxu's words were good, they undoubtedly comforted the students. He has been in the industry for a long time, and he has seen the difference between clouds and mud, the top actors. , definitely has a talent that ordinary people can't match.For example, the sound of Zhou's eyebrows mentioned by the student just now is like an elf-like figure. Too many actresses imitate it, and they can't learn the aura that comes with them that day.If Fang Ruolin is what she looks like, then Zhou Meisheng is what she is.There is a difference of one word, but the difference lies in the talent rewarded by God.

"Our first lesson is to let everyone learn to relax. The first obstacle for an actor is tension. When you face the camera or the audience, you will be involuntarily tense. Once you are tense, your body will not listen. So, we Learn to relax, from body to mind, all the time, learn to relax completely." Wu Dongxu's voice came, and Zhang Li pulled back his wandering thoughts.

Zhang Li walked to the front of the classroom and found that no one paid special attention to him, so he finally let go of the burden of being an idol and prepared to attend class with these children.
