Chapter 56 [Minxiu]

"The Melting Pot" is produced by Tianyang Film and Television Company, and Tianyang Film and Television Company is the main investor in it.

Therefore, the audition place is also at Tianyang Film and Television Company.

Compared with other film shootings, Tianyang Film and Television Company is not particularly optimistic about the box office performance of the movie "The Melting Pot", but they know very well that the real value of a film like "The Melting Pot" is not in the box office, but in the box office. What it means to make this film.

Tianyang Film and Television Company is a well-known film company in the industry, and the director Zeng Sheng's reputation in the circle is naturally not bad, and his status is not ordinary. He has received news about the shooting of a new film, and there is still a lot of news about vulnerable groups recently, especially since this is a novel. The movie version of "The Melting Pot" will naturally attract the attention of many media reporters.

Obviously, knowing very well that this movie is different, there are so many young actors who come to audition.

Just like what the junior Kuang Jie said brought money into the group, there are also related households, the second generation of stars...

Among actors, the pressure of competition in the circle of young actors and child stars is undoubtedly greater. There may be many roles in a play, but there are still very few plays with children, especially the plays with children as the protagonists. Therefore, Competition will also be fiercer.

Bao Shiyi was preparing for the audition while listening to Kuang Jie revealing the gossip in the child star circle, and it was obvious that Kuang Jie's role in this audition was Jin Yandou.

No, it should be the default role!

"Kuang Jie, it looks like you've already made an appointment."

Kuang Jie signaled Bao Shiyi not to speak out, and then urged: "Don't speak out about these things, it's not good to speak out, I still have to participate in the audition."

"I know, let's go through the motions."

Kuang Jie nodded, very satisfied with Bao Shiyi, reached out and couldn't help touching Bao Shishi's face, raised her chin, and said domineeringly: "You are so good-looking, you will be my little brother from now on, what's the matter?" Report my name."

Then, he couldn't help touching Bao Shishi's face again.

Bao Shiyi looked at the little sister Kuang Jie in front of him, why did he always have the feeling of being eaten tofu by a brat?

……

Mother Xu saw Bao Shiyi and the little girl talking, walked over, and reminded: "Eleven, it's your turn, come on."

Bao eleven nodded.

Kuang Jie took Bao Shiyi's hand, and gave another warning, saying, "When the time comes, you don't talk, it's best not to speak all the time, just use sign language."

"Sign language, do you know it? I only learned a little, just to introduce myself."

After speaking, Kuang Jie demonstrated it directly in sign language, and then said, "Hello, my name is Kuang Jie."

"That's right, that's right, it's this movement, and this movement means hello to you."

Bao Shiyi didn't expect that Kuang Jie was already learning sign language before the audition, and he was a little surprised. It turned out that the "big sister" he had just met was not a senior who only went through the back door and relied on the network, but was really serious. readying.

Bao Shixi touched Kuang Jie's little head with a smile, and said, "Don't worry, I have already learned this."

It doesn't matter, he didn't bring money into the group, he can only cram, practice hard, and prepare carefully

The system was also in Bao Shiyi's mind, and said proudly: "You don't even know that Shi Yi is better than you in this aspect."

"Next, I will blind your eyes!"

Before Bao Shiyi could think about it, he had already walked into the audition room.

……

The audition room is a conference room, not too big, with a desk in front of it, and two cameras on the other side. There are many people standing in the room, and four people are sitting behind the desk in the middle. Director Zeng Sheng Talking to a woman.

Except for Zeng Sheng, Bao Shiyi didn't know anyone present.

Seeing that Bao Shiyi was the next one to audition, Zeng Sheng's eyes lit up. Thinking of Bao Shiyi's funny acting talent before, he couldn't help saying, "Eleven, are you ready this time?"

Bao Shiyi didn't speak, but nodded.

Everyone in the conference room obviously knew who Bao Shiyi was, except that he was the author of the novel "The Melting Pot" who wrote this cruel story, and he was also the victim of the Liucheng Welfare Institute who had the dean's third leg disabled. By.

The producer on the side turned his head to look at Zeng Sheng, and asked, "How about it? Let's start?"

Zeng Sheng nodded and said, "Eleven, please introduce yourself first."

Hearing Zeng Sheng's words, Bao Shiyi's eyes flashed, and he didn't speak, but directly introduced himself with sign language.

……

It was such an introduction that made everyone at the scene nod their heads.

Especially when the woman sitting next to Zeng Sheng saw Bao Shiyi's sign language, she couldn't help saying to Zeng Sheng: "His sign language is very good, it looks like he has used it for many years, and he didn't make random gestures."

"Could he really—"

Zeng Sheng shook his head. Of course he knew that Bao Shiyi was normal, not a deaf-mute person, but seeing that Bao Shiyi could actually sign language, it seemed that Bao Shiyi really had a heart for acting, so he prepared for this audition. a lot.

There was a satisfied smile on Zeng Sheng's face, and he also admired him a little bit, and praised: "Eleventh, Mr. Lin said that your sign language is very standard."

Teacher Lin was naturally referring to the sign language teacher sitting next to her.

A smile appeared on Bao Shiyi's face, and he replied in sign language, "Thank you."

……

Sign language is just the basics of the film, and obviously the most important thing is the acting.

Zeng Sheng took the script, turned to one page, paused his eyes, and said, "Eleventh, I don't think anyone knows this story better than you. You can act out the scene where Minxiu finds out that he can't testify in court. How about it?"

As he said that, Zeng Sheng asked his assistant to hand over the script to Bao Shiyi for him to have a look.

Bao Shiyi took a rough look, and found that there was not much change in the plot, then nodded.

This scene is about Minxiu's grandma who reconciled with those people in private because of poverty. Minxiu no longer needs to testify in court. Jiang Renhao told Minxiu about it.This episode can be said to be a very sad episode, and Minxiu's reaction after learning about it collapsed.

This game has a certain degree of difficulty.

Bao Shiyi closed his eyes.

Then the meeting room fell silent, and began to wait for Bao Shiyi's performance.

……

Minxiu, who came from a social security family, was poor, and her grandmother accepted the reconciliation.The younger brother was raped and killed by the school teacher, but in the end, due to the bias of the law, the younger brother's victimization could not be executed fairly, and Minxiu himself embarked on the path of tragedy.

Thinking about Minxiu's experience, Bao Shiyi calmed down, and then his whole person began to change slowly.

Not Bao Shiyi, but Minxiu.

At this moment, Minxiu opened his eyes.

……

Tears came out just like that, Bao Shili opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound.

"Ah..."

Bao Shiyi's tears kept flowing like that, as if he was stimulated, his whole body trembled from crying, his mouth opened wide, trying to make a sound, but——

Bao Shiyi looked at Zeng Sheng, wept and gestured in sign language: "He killed my brother, he did it."

When these words were gestured out, Bao Shiyi was frantic, but there was only a hoarse sound on his mouth.

Desperate, helpless, crying voices filled the entire conference room.

Other than that, nothing.

……

Zeng Sheng looked at Bao Shiyi who was standing in front of him at the moment, and trembled all over.

Not only Zeng Sheng, it should be said that everyone in the conference room opened their eyes wide, staring straight at Bao Shiyi.

They don't know why, but they just feel that Minxiu is in front of them, and this feeling makes them shudder and their hearts tremble.

The photographer saw Bao Shiyi's crying in the camera, and his heart suddenly ached, and his own tears fell like that at some point.

……

"As soon as he sees me and my brother, he beats us and takes off his pants..."

Bao Shiyi just opened his mouth wide like that, gesticulating like that, tears kept streaming like that.

If other people can't understand sign language, they can feel the despair and pain in Bao Shiyi.

Sign language teacher Lin covered her mouth and kept crying, trying her best not to make a sound, but watching Bao Shiyi's performance and those heart-wrenching words, her heart was so painful that she couldn't breathe.

……

"Who said to forgive him, I haven't forgiven him yet!"

……

"He didn't apologize to me and my brother, how can he forgive?"

……

"You promised that those people would be punished.

"Didn't the teacher promise?"

……

Bao Shiyi's face was full of tears, his eyes were red from crying, and he still let out a hoarse and desolate voice with his mouth open.

"Ah-"

This is a silent cry, this is Minxiu's silent cry and cry
The people in the meeting room didn't speak, just looked at Bao Shiyi standing there like that, their hearts seemed to be stung, and they also fully felt the helplessness of that young man, looking at it, listening to it was heartbreaking.

The boy stood there like that, lonely, desperate, helpless, looking at them with tears.

Every word, every voice seems to be questioning them.

That voice sounded heart-piercing, like a knife cutting the hearts of everyone present.

The boy could neither hear nor speak.

His name is Minxiu.
