Master of Chinese Opera

Chapter 94 Stunning Performance
Wrinkled gray linen clothes, round glasses, haggard face, vicissitudes of life in the eyes, white hair dotted around the temples, elegant movements, desolate yet dignified demeanor...

Seeing Shen Yuelou like this, He Ling opened his eyes wide in an instant, and murmured: "Like, it's so similar."

An inexplicable feeling, she just felt that Teacher Shen was too similar to the last emperor Chai Yuan in her impression.

Maybe the difference in appearance is not small, but the charm is really the same.

Elegant and noble to the bone...

After putting on makeup, everyone went up to audition in turn, Shen Yuelou was the ninth to go in, and in front of him was Peak Entertainment's actor Lan Deyin.

Walking into the examination room and standing in the center of the empty stage, Shen Yuelou raised her eyes and immediately saw the four examiners sitting on the long table opposite.

When he saw the four examiners on the field, he couldn't help being a little stunned.

"Old Pei, Old Chai, why are you two here?"

He actually knew half of the four examiners.

Seeing Shen Yuelou's surprised expression, Pei Qingfeng couldn't help laughing softly: "Hehe, long time no see, Boss Shen.

You may not know that the movie "The Last Emperor" that Director Zhang is planning to shoot is an adaptation of my novel "The End of the House".

I was also surprised to see your name on the audition list just now.

If I had known that you were interested in auditioning for the role of Chai Yuan, I would have personally acted as an audition recommender and chosen a better audition segment for you. "

Hearing Pei Qingfeng's words, Shen Yuelou quickly waved his hands: "No, no, it's fine.

Yuelou doesn't need special treatment for relying on ability to eat and relying on acting skills to compete. "

I have already led them by a large margin by dreaming of Pu Yi, and if I fight for relationships, it will be too bullying.

After taking a look at Shen Yuelou, Chai Xun couldn't help but smiled warmly and said, "I didn't expect to meet my little friend here. I'm a descendant of the Chai family, and I was invited by Director Zhang to be a special consultant for the film."

"So it is!"

Hearing what Chai Lao and Pei Lao said, Shen Yuelou finally figured out why they appeared in the film crew.

Seeing Mr. Pei and Mr. Chai greeting the young actor next to him, director Zhang Cheng and producer Han Yuanzhen couldn't help but be full of doubts.

Who the hell is this one on stage?

How come the two old gentlemen know him?
Seeing Zhang Cheng and Han Yuanzhen looking at each other with doubts, Pei Qingfeng introduced with a light smile: "This one on the stage is Boss Shen, the newly promoted Yandu famous actress, Shen Yuelou. The two of you are not from the theater world, and you don't know Boss Shen." , is also normal."

"It turns out to be Liyuan Boss Shen, disrespectful and disrespectful."

"Han is so blind that he doesn't recognize Mount Tai!"

Seeing Zhang Cheng and Han Yuanzhen clasping their hands together, Shen Yuelou quickly returned a salute: "You two are welcome, there are no famous opera actors here, only one audition actor who came to audition.

Director Zhang, everyone, can we officially start? "

"Sure, start your show."

Respect can be respected, but if the acting is not good, even the master of Liyuan can't get what he wants.

After all, this is my closed film, and I am going to make this movie the highest peak in the history of Chinese movies.

Actors, props, scenes... I have to choose the best and most suitable for everything.

Looking at Shenyuelou with Yushu facing the wind on the stage, these thoughts kept flashing in Zhang Cheng's mind.

……

Standing in the center of the stage, this place became Shen Yuelou's home stadium.

Closing her eyes, Shen Yuelou entered Chai Yuan's world with the perception of another last emperor in her dream.

The train was jolting, and the sun was shining through the thick glass windows.

At this time, Chai Yuan was leaning on the window seat of the military train and dozing off.

From being reduced to a prisoner by the emperor, being escorted back to the country for trial, and possibly even accusing the woman he loves the most...,
This fear and helplessness tormented him, how could he be able to sleep?

The train slowly entered the station, and the sharp siren interrupted his chaotic thoughts.

In front of the official stop in Manzhouli.

More than a dozen Chinese military officers escorted him off the train and set foot on his homeland again. Chai Yuan looked up at the sky with complicated emotions.

It should have been a happy thing to return to China from Saudi Arabia, but when he thought of the next trial, he began to worry.

After watching Shen Yuelou's performance, Zhang Cheng nodded secretly, full of admiration in his heart.

The temperament and makeup are convincing, and the understanding of the characters and the control of emotions are also in place...

This script is still too thin!
If the plot is changed, he should be able to act more brilliantly.

Among the nine people interviewed just now, his temperament is the most similar.

It's a pity!
Entering the Manzhouli Railway Station, through the eyes of Chai Yuan played by Shen Yuelou, Zhang Cheng seemed to see the appearance of all beings who belonged to the bottom of China in that era.

Chai Yuan was once an emperor, and he entered the station under the escort of the Huaxia military, which naturally attracted the attention of countless people.

Among the onlookers, some are flattering, some are in awe, some are numb, and some are resentful... These various images of passers-by need to be portrayed and depicted by Shen Yuelou through his own feedback.

After passing through various crowds and talking to the escorting officer, Chai Yuan immediately entered the bathroom of Manzhouli Railway Station.

When closing the door, Zhang Cheng found that the temperament of Chai Yuan played by Shen Yuelou had completely changed. The previous hesitation and depression gradually became firm, and there was a calmness born of despair in the firmness.

After plugging in the door latch, using a mop and a pile of sundries to hold against the toilet door, Chai Yuan turned on the faucet, and covered up the noise in the bathroom with the sound of water.

Facing the mirror, Chai Yuan carefully arranged his appearance, which was his last dignity as the last emperor.

He took out a hidden knife from his bosom, cut open the blood vessels on both wrists, endured the pain and stretched his hands into the warm pool, the redness of the blood blurred in the pool, like a cloud slowly blooming , giving people a unique and weird aesthetic feeling.

These scenes are naturally Shen Yuelou's imagination, other people may not be able to feel it, but Zhang Cheng just happened to see it through the faint smile at the corner of Shen Yuelou's mouth.

The blood was about to run dry, the weak Shen Yuelou closed her eyes slightly, letting the tears fall from the corners of her eyes.

He suddenly laughed silently, with tears in his smile, full of madness, humiliation, complacency, guilt and remorse...

Looking back on this life, it's just a dream.

At this moment, Shen Yuelou seemed to be the incarnation of Chai Yuan, interpreting the emotional fluctuations deep in Chai Yuan's heart when he committed suicide through his own perception and actions.

Seeing Shen Yuelou's performance, Chai Xun had already burst into tears. He had heard his father tell the story of his grandfather in Manchuria before. When he made up his mind to end his life, it must have been in this mood. Bar.

"Okay, great, very good.

Boss Shen's vivid performance has surpassed the script, this is a performance that can only be made by thoroughly understanding the characters! "

Seeing Shen Yuelou's stunning performance, Pei Qingfeng immediately stood up and applauded Shen Yuelou.

The pen in Zhang Cheng's hand was suddenly clenched, and then slowly loosened. He was also shocked by Shen Yuelou's performance.

For Shen Yuelou, he had no expectations in his heart.

One is that this script is too plain, and there are no strong external conflicts. Most of it is the inner drama of the protagonist. It is difficult to perform surprises in such a drama.

The second is his prejudice against opera actors. He always feels that they are rigid and lack aura.

Now, it seems that Shen Yuelou's performance has really changed a bit.

Hearing, watching, and feeling, Boss Shen acted so realistically, as if he had really experienced that kind of near-death situation.

Moreover, his temperament is also very special, noble, mysterious and refined, which is really suitable for the complex role of the last emperor Chai Yuan.

Hearing the applause from Pei Qingfeng and Chai Xun, Shen Yuelou slowly withdrew from Chai Yuan's role. He gently wiped away his tears, bowed to the four people in the audience, and left silently.
