Entertainment: The Road to an Actor Starting from a Villain

Zhou Chen, who was holding more than a dozen movies in his hands, had no more scenes to shoot.

This is a bit outrageous.

In fact, it's normal. The movies that Zhou Chen signed before were all agreed to start shooting after April.

But now that the movie ended early, Zhou Chen had more than 20 days free.

Seeing that he suddenly had so much extra time, he didn't know how to arrange it for a while.

At this moment, a phone call came.

It was Director Liu who had been away for many days!

Director Liu of the Sixth Princess has gone back to work in the station since he filmed a documentary for Zhou Chen last time.

A movie channel worker, an actor.

In fact, the communication between the two is not too much, just sending greetings occasionally.

But this does not mean that the friendship between the two is shallow.

It's just because the two of them are too busy with their usual work, and there is no way to communicate too much.

Zhou Chen didn't know why Director Liu called suddenly, maybe it was for New Year's greetings.

If we pay New Year's greetings now, will the time be a little late?

Although he was puzzled, Zhou Chen still picked up the phone.

"Director Liu~ What's the matter? Why do you suddenly have time to call my brother?"

Although it was called Director Liu, Zhou Chen's voice seemed very casual.

Director Liu said with a smile:

"Zhou Chen, of course I'm here to congratulate you on the release of another movie. '

Cao Baoguo's "The Murder Chaser" has been scheduled to premiere in late April, which is the most eye-catching news recently.

But to Zhou Chen, this matter is nothing, after all, he has a lot of movies to be released this year.

In May and June, "Wolf Warrior 2" and Du Qifeng's "Big Event" will be released.

In July and August, "The Master of Memory" will be released.

And at the end of the year, "Fuse" will be released again!
Every schedule, Zhou Chen's movie will be released. If Director Liu really came to congratulate him on this, it would be too fake.

Zhou Chen said directly:

"Director Liu! Why don't you just say it directly, you know what kind of character I am!"

Zhou Chen likes to be direct when speaking and doing things.

The more you beat around the bush, the more likely you will be rejected by him.

Director Liu smiled and said:
"Talking to you, all the officialdom skills I learned are useless!"

"Well, where are you now? I have something to talk to you face to face!"

Zhou Chen said:

"I'll go back to Shanghai right away, how about we meet in Shanghai?"

"Okay! Meet the demons!"

Three hours later, in a restaurant in Shanghai, Director Liu was still fat and fat, sitting on a chair, eating every mouthful.

Opposite him, Zhou Chen was flipping through a proposal.

"Actor's Beginning"!
Zhou Chen took a closer look at the entire proposal, it was not thick, and it was printed in clean and tidy white A4.

It took no more than five hours to print out this plan.

Obviously, Director Liu had just printed it out when he left the TV station.

Zhou Chen could also smell a strong smell of ink on it.

Turning to the first page, there is a neat table of contents.

As expected of being official, even the catalog is neat and pleasing to the eye, but Zhou Chen's eyes only stopped for a moment before turning to the second page.

The so-called "Actor's Beginning" is a variety show similar to a talent show led by Yang Ma.

Although it is a draft, the content is still somewhat different.

First of all, there is no so-called national audition, only professional actors can participate, and there is a strict age limit, eighteen to 22!

This restriction alone can push a large number of actors outside.

Only students from top schools, or those young actors with good strength can participate in this selection.

After these students have been screened, the four instructors will select their own students.

This link is also quite unique, just like an actor audition.

But this is not like ordinary variety shows, where there are two-way choices.

First, the instructor selects the students he wants to audition, and then let them go to the next stage and conduct a formal audition.

Only when you can be chosen, will you have the opportunity to choose.

If the director can't choose you, you may be eliminated directly.

This process can be said to be quite cruel.

But the reality is like this, in the role audition of film and television dramas.

Whoever the director wants to audition for, he usually screens in advance among so many actors in Huaxia, and then auditions.

The audition is up, and if you want to change to another role, you can try it.

If you don't make it to the audition, just leave, and you don't need to say anything.

It can be said that this variety show is largely based on the actual audition process.

The official design of such a variety show is to rectify the domestic performing arts atmosphere.

The show is just a throw away!
Of course, this brick is also useful, at least it can still screen out some good actors.

These young actors can be trained more vigorously in the future, and it is not certain that they will become the next Zhou Chen.

Therefore, the official will carry out such a strict design in terms of age.

By the age of 22, it is the time for most actors to learn professionally.

But Zhou Chen still felt that this time was a bit late.

In fact, actors can be regarded as children's skills. The earlier you learn, the easier it is to become a talent.

For example, several child stars have studied acting since they were young, and their achievements are not low when they grow up.

Not low is not only because of the popularity they have accumulated since they were young, but also because their acting skills have also been honed for a long time, which is quite good.

From Zhou Chen's point of view, it was already too late.

Seeing that Zhou Chen had almost read the plan, Director Liu stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth, and said:

"Now the preliminary selection has started, so you don't need Zhou Chen to appear on the stage, you just need to go directly to the imperial capital for the first recording of the show in a week."

Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

"Director Liu, I haven't decided to participate in this show yet!"

Although he has never participated in variety shows, everyone who knows him knows that he really doesn't like variety shows.

The first two variety shows were forced to participate.

After participating in the recording of a variety show for the last time, Zhou Chen had sworn that he would never participate in a variety show again.

If you agree today, wouldn't you be slapping yourself in the face? "

Director Liu was also taken aback when he heard Zhou Chen's words.

"Zhou Chen, are you really not going to participate?"

Zhou Chen nodded and said:

"I really don't want to participate!"

Zhou Chen looked very determined.

"Director Liu, I don't like variety shows in the first place. Besides, I'm so busy with my schedule now, how can I have time!"
