from the star

The next day, that is, on Sunday night, "The Age of Stars" was broadcast on online video and TV.Aside from the attractiveness of the program and the guests themselves, the advertisements also had a considerable effect, and according to statistics, the ratings were quite high.Needless to say, Ling Qingyuan and Yuan Xin, even Zou Wenyu sat in front of the computer with them and watched.

"This guy is called Guo Yongzhi. He looks like he was born in dance, and his performance is like a stage play." Zou Wenyu complained while watching the show with his own barrage.Sometimes I would quarrel with Yuan Xin who had disagreements.

"And this Yu Chenghan, who is really amazing, burst into tears all at once. If you want me, you can't do it."

"Nonsense, you and we are not in the same way." Yuan Xin blocked him.

Ling Qingyuan ignored the two of them, and while the program was playing, Cheng Lubai called him, and the younger sister put her hands on her chest and vowed to support him, and would promote it among her classmates.

"Brother, don't you know your own level? Take care of yourself, and spend as much time with mom as you can." Ling Qingyuan did not forget to be serious in his jokes.Hearing that he didn't appreciate it, Cheng Lubai turned his head and fucked his sister's heart, and said on the phone that he was arrogant enough, but thanked him for his silent thoughtfulness in his heart.

A week passed in the blink of an eye, and before the second round of program recording, the director announced the comprehensive results of the audience support rate and the judges' scores.Ling Qingyuan is ranked fourth, and the first is Xing Yuntao, who is the most eye-catching player among them.The second is Yu Chenghan, probably his crying had the miraculous effect of shocking everyone.The third is Liu Kezhen, a female contestant with refined temperament and sweet appearance.Yuan Xin's score was a little low, only ranked tenth.

The program group provided a lottery box, allowing the top six contestants to draw a play partner.Ling Qingyuan was drawn by Guo Yongzhi, and Yuan Xin was drawn by Yu Chenghan.Xing Yuntao's partner is another beautiful woman, Meng Zichu, Liu Kezhen and Han Wei, Sun Yun and Zhu Shaohong, Hang Ye and Ye Wentang...

"I watched the last round of the competition, and our performance styles don't match." Guo Yongzhi frowned when he heard that his name was drawn by Ling Qingyuan, and said to him: "The second round is still an on-site assessment. How can we get together when we have enough time to think about it.”

"If you're worried that we won't be able to set up a scene temporarily, you can focus on one party's pace, so that only one person needs to adjust the performance style. It's easier to compromise than both of them."

Guo Yongzhi was obviously dissatisfied with this answer.He knew that Cheng Hebai's score was higher than his, so Cheng Hebai said this to imply that he should adapt to the other party's performance style, so he argued: "I don't have a tacit understanding and I haven't practiced it. It's a bit difficult to suddenly say that I need to adjust."

"As long as one party's performance clues are clear, it is not difficult for the other party to cooperate."

But no actor is willing to be a green leaf, let alone this is a competition-like show.Guo Yongzhi pursed his lips: "By the way, you really don't know what are the alternative questions this time?"

"do not know."

"That's really troublesome... Tell me, who will cooperate with whom."

Ling Qingyuan didn't hesitate, and said generously and bluntly: "You play a more important role in your style, and give me clear language and behavior clues, and I will cooperate with you."

Guo Yongzhi was a little surprised, but he was more willing to see Ling Qingyuan take the initiative to give in and give himself a more active role, so he said hello happily.

When the show started, they were the third pair to play.This time it was Wang Ledi who read the title. He told them in a brisk and lively tone to play a pair of brothers who were forced to separate and never see each other because their parents divorced when they were young.Twenty years later, the elder brother of the company's white-collar worker accidentally met a doorman who was somewhat similar to himself in a hotel where he was on a business trip, and designed and performed a dialogue in which the two met or recognized each other.

They have half a minute to discuss roles.Now that the main supporting roles of the brothers had already been booked in front of the stage, Ling Qingyuan simply asked him how to handle the scene: "Brother, when you meet for the first time, you only suspect that I am your younger brother. Will you recognize me or not? recognize?"

Guo Yongzhi, who came on stage, naturally understood the importance of his role, not only related to the two partners, but also related to his own rating. He quickly replied: "Doubt, hesitation to observe, routine confirmation. Retain identity."

Before the backlight came on, the two stood a distance apart, and the younger doorman got ready immediately.When the timing of the performance started and the light fell on him, he immediately put on his hat, bowed and said, "Hello, welcome to the Central Hotel. Do you want me to help you with your luggage?"

The non-existent guests raised their heads and ignored the hospitality of the doorman. The doorman was not discouraged, with a friendly smile on his face, bowed before the turnstile and asked, "Hi, welcome to the Central Hotel. I need to help you with your luggage." ."

Guo Yongzhi pushed open the revolving door and entered the lobby. He put on the arrogance and indifference typical of successful people to the waiters and replied: "No thanks... I will carry my luggage... Lee..."

The doorman squinted and smiled, bowed honestly again, and retreated to meet other guests.In his busy work, taking luggage is his important source of tips. He must be humble and enthusiastic, and he has no time to care about what those high-spirited gods look like.

"Hey you……"

"Hi, welcome. You need my help with your luggage... Ah, there are luggage carts, there are, there are." The doorman was busy on the side.

"I said..." The white-collar worker was pacing around with a briefcase in his hand, feeling a bit tangled.I went forward several times to strike up a conversation, but then backed away.His gaze stayed on the doorman's back all the time, but he didn't dare to go in, walked to the front and took a closer look at him.

"Sir, please go forward to check in. There is a rest area on the right. There are people coming and going here, be careful of the danger." The doorman quickly pushed a luggage cart, passed by the white-collar, and said quickly.

"Hey, you... come here, I said, I have luggage."

The doorman stopped his cart in front of a guest and stooped to pick up his bulky suitcase.After finishing packing, he clapped his hands, turned his head and bowed to the white-collar worker, "Please wait a moment, sir, while I deliver this guest's luggage to the room. If you are in a hurry, you can also seek help from other staff."

"No, no, no, you go first, I'm not in a hurry, I... you..." The white-collar worker hesitated to speak, but the doorman quickly turned around to take care of the guests.He looked left and right, his eyes locked on the doorman's back, until he turned a corner into the elevator, and then reluctantly looked away.

"This...this is..." The white-collar worker walked around the lobby, saw a non-existent lobby manager, and hurriedly approached him and asked, "Hi, what's the name of that doorman just now?"

"No, no, he didn't do anything wrong. I just want to ask his name."

"What did you say...Guo Yuanzhi?" The white collar murmured and repeated: "It's really him...Guo Yuanzhi?"

The porter who brought the luggage got off the elevator and came from the corridor.The white-collar worker was reminded by the lobby manager on the opposite side, and hurriedly turned his head to look: Guo Yuanzhi smiled at every passing guest, sometimes pointed them to the room number, and nodded respectfully.

Guo Yongzhi couldn't hold back his pace, trotted over eagerly, stopped five or six meters away and looked at Guo Yuanzhi, until the other side cast him a puzzled and inquiring look - the doorman found that he had no other luggage to carry except the bag.

"You...is called Guo Yuanzhi, right? I'm...Guo Yongzhi." Guo Yongzhi, who played the role of a white-collar worker, made a play of tricks and directly stated his real name on stage, even if the plot required it, to promote his own popularity.

"I'm Guo Yuanzhi, that's right." The doorman subconsciously glanced at the nameplate on his left chest, and he guessed that the other party saw his name just now.However, at this moment, the doorman lowered his courteous smile, showing confusion, a little uneasiness and wariness.

"I'm Guo Yongzhi, do you remember..."

The doorman shook his head, and he could keep some space and psychological distance: "Sir, do you need any help, or is there anything in my work that makes you dissatisfied?"

The white-collar opposite was at a loss for words, he felt that this guy was called Guo Yuanzhi, maybe his brother's doorman didn't know, or pretended not to recognize him as his brother.The lobby was bustling with people, it was not a place to talk, not to mention that the other party was still at work, and a waiter's job was much lower than his own.

The doorman had no time or thought to pay attention to him, and went to greet the guests again.At this time, the white collar plucked up his courage and shouted to him: "Guo Yuanzhi, is your mother's name Li Junhong?"

The doorman was bending over to pick up the luggage, and when he heard this sentence, he bent over and turned around, slowly raising his head.Facing the judges and the camera, everyone could clearly see his magnified and clear expression on the big screen: it was like looking at strangers on the road, and he was completely unwilling to take a second look, an indifferent and distant expression.

"Sir, what do you need help with?" Work prevents him from contradicting and questioning the guests, and he can only use idiomatic expressions to express that he has no intention of understanding the other party's questions.

The white-collar worker said "I am your brother" on the tip of his tongue, but he couldn't get it out.He leaned over cautiously and asked, "It's me from far away, do you know who I am right? How have you been all these years...Mom, she..."

Like a puppet, the doorman responded indifferently. He opened his mouth without making a sound.It was probably at this time that the customer was urging, and he turned sideways and immediately changed into the attentive and thoughtful attitude and tone of the service: "Hey, I'm here, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for a long time!"

In the end, he gave the white-collar worker a meaningful glance, and there seemed to be a wordless resentment in the corner of his eyes.The elder brother whom he hadn't seen for many years stood in front of him. At this moment, the younger brother seemed to have a backlog of complaints for many years. This complicated feeling even hijacked the family relationship. In the past 20 years, they have experienced different encounters and experiences, and whether the same blood relationship can offset the fate of the two people respectively.

The story ends when the younger brother goes away and the elder brother stops and shakes his head and sighs.

"Thank you, thank you both for creating a story full of reverie for us." When the lights came on, Mr. Kuai Zui returned to the stage and led everyone to applaud: "It's very vivid...but for the specifics, we still need to listen to the four experts. review."

Ling Qingyuan and Guo Yongzhi took the microphone and stood side by side facing the judges. Guo Yongzhi was a little apprehensive. The younger brother led the development-his denial, evasion and indifference.Guo Yongzhi cheered up and shook off this illusion. Anyway, he performed smoothly and freely, and he also publicized his name by the way. It was worth it.

Holding the microphone on the table, Wang Ledi took the lead to speak: "This pair of contestants has a full-bodied live performance, and the grasp of the two roles is relatively in place. I asked this question to the previous combination, and now I still want to ask you: How did you do it in half a minute? The discussion time is divided into angles?"

Guo Yongzhi raised the microphone: "We have already booked who will play what in the audience, and the two of them are nothing more than the active side and the coordinating side of words and actions." Facing the camera, he did not forget to give credit generously: "Thanks to Hebai .”

Ling Qingyuan added: "Actually, we only spent half a minute discussing how to play it. Yongzhi and I agreed that it should show the uncertain attitude of the two brothers when they separated for 20 years."

"You guys have spent your discussion time wisely." Wang Ledi laughed, although he didn't directly praise or criticize, but the semantic meaning of appreciation is obvious.He and Su Qinxin glanced at each other, and the latter took over the conversation and commented: "You two entered the drama very quickly, and the plot unfolded more naturally."

"You let me see a small slice of a big story, and made me want to pursue the cause and effect of this segment. Why they separated 20 years ago, how each of them spent these years, and whether they would recognize each other later... …I really want to know."

Zhen Chun flatteringly asked Su Qinxin for confirmation: "I think Sister Qinxin means that their play can be regarded as a lively act, and the small story has a big rhythm."

Su Qinxin held her hair in her hands and smiled sincerely: "That's not bad at all."

Seeing that there was another person who remained silent from beginning to end, the host reminded him.Tan Yue is not pretending to be deep, he is thinking: from the face of the title, there is no doubt that the protagonist of the two is the elder brother.The elder brother met the younger brother whom he hadn't seen for many years, and wanted to ask for proof, but he didn't know whether he should recognize him or not.

But judging from the performance of the two just now, it is the younger brother who leads the dramatic conflict.Throughout the performance, the doorman switches freely between two emotional states-the attentive image of the waiter and the indifferent image of the younger brother.And the moment Guo Yongzhi reported Guo Yuanzhi and his own name, the doorman's reaction was the flashpoint of the whole conflict.

On the surface, it seems that the protagonist is the elder brother, but the soul of the 5-minute character is the younger brother.His every move triggered Guo Yongzhi's reaction, leading to the dialogue and the direction of the story.

Tan Yue looked at the young man named Cheng Hebai on the stage.These days, my impression of him is constantly deepening.With years of acting experience, Tan Yue naturally knows that a good actor has a "field", which is similar to a magnetic attraction, which unknowingly affects the surrounding performances.

And that Cheng Hebai, judging from his resume, is just a novice with no training at all, but it can be seen that he has a lot of confidence in the role.Moreover, he seems to be dimly and invisible showing the temperament of controlling the macro.

Guo Yongzhi is actually following Cheng Hebai's thinking, and is placed in Cheng Hebai's magnetic field like a magnetic needle!

Tan Yue pondered for a while and said: "Guo Yongzhi played the role quite well. You don't recognize each other, and your entanglements and worries are expressed vividly and really in your actions and words. But, Cheng Hebai, I don't know if you want to Too much or too little, you over-characterize the younger brother’s rejection of the older brother’s recognition, this rejection came too quickly, lacking a foreshadowing. Do you understand what I mean.”

Acting, many times can only be understood but not expressed in words.Tan Yue seemed to be criticizing Cheng Hebai's performance, but in fact he wanted to see what level he could realize.

Ling Qingyuan looked back at Tan Yue who was sitting on the judging panel, and secretly sighed that his facial features were like mountains and rivers, and his handsomeness was full of the elegance of jade - not cold but warm, with a round personality.He is indeed a good actor, not only in appearance, but also in acting skills and insights.

"What you said is true. I put too much effort into the conflict in the drama, which was a bit sudden. If Guo Yuanzhi deliberately rejected the recognition of his brother, then before the conflict broke out, he should have a certain degree of emotional brewing to pave the way. For example, he also almost met each other. At the same time, he realized who this person might be, but deliberately ignored it. For example, he used a calm working state to cover up his emotional turmoil. I was on the court just now, and I really didn’t have time to show it.”

Tan Yue pursed his lips lightly.With half a minute of preparation time on the spot, no experienced actor can present all the complex emotional states physically or verbally.He is a judge, and those who watch plays are more sober than those who act, and he also has time to think about problems in the play.But that young man, in the midst of Lushan Mountain and under the pressure of the stage, was able to realize this while he was only uttering a sentence, which is considered very talented.

Guo Yongzhi next to him didn't hear the deep meaning, only knew that Tan Yue thought Cheng Hebai's acting was not good, and Cheng Hebai had to admit that he had shortcomings, so he couldn't help cheering secretly.

The two actresses probably didn't understand the deep meaning of the conversation. They both laughed and said that Tan Yue's eyes were too poisonous, and praised him as a famous actor.Wang Ledi did not want to be compared in terms of presence and power of speech, and deliberately said to Cheng Hebai as a senior: "What Tan Yue said is based on experience. If you want to act well, you can't do it overnight. Young actors should accumulate more. "

After the two left the stage, they watched the performances of other groups backstage.Yu Chenghan and Yuan Xin are the penultimate pair to appear, and they almost turned the story into Yu Chenghan's one-man show.Ling Qingyuan felt that this young man had a good appearance and a thorny personality. It was very unpleasant for a single person to point out the country in the field without a sense of the overall situation.

At the end of the second show, the scores of all combinations will be combined with off-site individual votes, and will be announced before the start of the third show.

Back at the apartment, Yuan Xin collapsed on the sofa somewhat self-destructively.Zou Wenyu tapped his stomach with a guitar as a mallet and stimulated him with unconscionable provocation.In order to comfort this roommate, Ling Qingyuan went to work in the kitchen. He had lived a single life for nearly 20 years after his mother died. Although half of the time was outside the film crew, he was able to take care of himself at home, and he was able to cook well.

"I'm definitely out of luck this time...Compared to you, I think Yu Chenghan is more like the default." When the meal was served, Yuan Xin sat up from the sofa like a zombie, and said dully: "I really didn't see Who can pull him to the point where his nose is up to the sky."

"Big man, wake up. There are a lot of people in the industry who are so tempered, and the backstage is so tough. How can you let you cry every time here."

Ling Qingyuan served three bowls of rice, and ate it himself first. He pretended to be indifferent to Yuan Xin's state, knocked on the rice bowl and said to himself: "If you want to stick to the actor's path, it may not be a shortcut to do it overnight. There is a skyrocketing If you don’t have the ability to ride the wind and waves, it’s nothing. I think it’s not bad to start with a small role and hone your acting skills with more lenses. Success is not fast.”

"Hebai, what you say is really old-fashioned." Zou Wenyu put Yuan Xin aside, jumped to the dining table and picked up the bowl: "I think then, he should work hard to strive for the top, what about Yu Chenghan, even if Yu Zecheng came Now, he also needs to have an invincible momentum."

Ling Qingyuan only urged them to eat quickly.He could see that Yu Chenghan was a tough person, and Yuan Xin was weaker than Yu Chenghan in terms of aura, and the young man's experience was not enough to make up for the gap, so a rivalry turned into a chess game.

Yuan Xin stuffed food into his mouth dumbly, and said in a low voice, "Hebai, no matter what, you really did a good job. I admire you. I don't agree with the one whose surname is Yu."
