This benefactor is not too cold

Chen Mo knocked on the door and walked into the audition room.Several directors headed by Li Mouyi sat around the conference room upright.

Seeing Chen Mo coming in, Li Mouyi smiled gently: "Son, don't be cautious, have you read the script?"

Chen Mo nodded.

Li Mouyi: "Okay, next, please use your initial understanding of the role to interpret the following segment."

Fragment excerpts and pre-story: In Jinyang City where Du Wuci is located, there is a gambling house called "One Book, One Million Money", which is always overcrowded.However, there are many bets and nine losers, and there are countless people who go bankrupt, but it is rare to see anyone returning with a full reward.Du Wuci rescued a woman who committed suicide by jumping into the river when she was on a cruise. After questioning, she learned that her husband had lost both young children to a gambling house. He had no choice but to commit suicide.

Du Wuci had long heard that there was something wrong with that gambling house, so he decided to pretend to be a gambler to find out, but he was blocked by Prime Minister Du right after he came out of the gambling shop.

Du's father didn't know the reason, but it was not enough for Du Wuci to do nothing, and he also contracted the bad habit of gambling. He became angry and resorted to family law.

The segment that Chen Mo wants to perform is the continuous scene from when Du Wuci just came out of the casino and met Du Zhenzong, to when he was punished to kneel in the courtyard.

Li Mouyi: "I'll give you 3 minutes to prepare, no physical performance, I'll start at 3.2.1."

Chen Mo walked to the other side of the door, brewed for a while to enter the state, made a movement of lifting the curtain with his hands in mid-air, his walking posture became no longer normal, he swayed left and right to the fullest, shaking his hands did not exist folding fan.

When he looked not far away, he first fixed his eyes, and then there was complacency and a little expectation in his eyes.

Chen Mo took a few steps forward, and shouted triumphantly, "Father."

Within a few seconds after Chen Mo shouted, he suddenly covered his left face and lowered his head, blinking in a daze, as if he had been beaten up, his emotions changed little by little during the process of raising his head, the original joy was disbelieved Instead, followed by imperceptible sadness, Chen Mo sneered, and finally pursed his lips tightly, with a stubborn expression.

When Li Mouyi approached from Chen Mo, he smiled approvingly on his face, and when he saw this, he stood up and applauded.

Chen Mo came back to his senses after finishing the performance, and bowed to thank the director's seat.

Li Mouyi said to the people around him: "Today's audition can be over."

The assistant director at the side stopped him and said, "But, Director Li, there are still a few people who haven't finished watching."

Li Mouyi had already stood up from his seat: "I've decided on the male number one in my heart, what's the point of trying again?"

A few people looked at Chen Mo, and said falteringly: "Director, although he has good acting skills, he is too young, and the producer may have plans for him..."

Chen Mo knew what they were hesitant to talk about. The initial investment in a film and television drama was huge, and someone needed to invest.The producer refers to the investor of the film or the person who can attract sponsors. The commercial nature of film and television works determines that the producer is the master of a film, and they can decide the actors for the roles.

From this point of view, the position of the male protagonist should have been determined by default, and this audition was just a formality, and this kind of thing is no secret in the industry.

The matter has come to this point, there is nothing to say, Chen Mo bowed to Li Mouyi, turned around and prepared to go out.

Li Mouyi called him to stop, with a stubborn expression on his face: "Don't leave yet, let's go after asking."

Chen Mo raised his eyes, a little puzzled.

Li Mouyi: "The heroine was chosen by you. I turned a blind eye and took a step back. But none of the two protagonists is my favorite. I can't make this scene. Today I put my words on Here, either Chen Mo will be the male lead and I will take over the play, or you can choose the leading role yourself and choose a new director by the way."

Li Mouyi is notoriously stubborn in the industry. Seeing that old Li was anxious, the assistant director hurriedly comforted him: "Director Li, don't worry, we can discuss this matter later."

Li Mouyi said categorically: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay if it's not, there's no need to discuss it."

After speaking, he took Chen Mo out.

Chen Mo looked at Li Mouyi's faltering pace for a while, and he was distracted. He never thought that besides Chang Si, he would be firmly chosen by others, and he would follow him step by step.

Chen Mo: "Thank you, director."

Li Mouyi: "Actually, you don't have to thank me. I am also doing it for my own selfishness. I have been in the industry for more than 30 years, and now I am 60. I can't guarantee which one will be the last one. My old man will be strong for a lifetime. I don't want to think about it His signboard was smashed."

The two of them were walking and talking, and they had already arrived at the park along the river. Li Mouyi found a bench, walked over to finish it in two or three steps, and called Chen Mo to sit down.

Gu Zi took out the cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette, and asked Chen Mo: "Do you mind?"

Chen Mo waved his hand: "It's okay."

Li Mouyi lit a cigarette, then asked Chen Mo: "Don't smoke, you are so young."

Being watched by Li Mouyi as if he was looking at his own child, Chen Mo shyly said, "I won't smoke now." When he smoked a lot before, Chang Si couldn't, and he had to follow suit. He took a sip, Chang Si took a sip, and put I didn't give up until I choked and coughed, and I was coughing to death in front of Chen Mo. Chen Mo had no other choice, so he stopped smoking slowly.

Li Mouyi nodded: "It's better to quit while you're young, don't learn from me, I was a small smoker when I was young, but I'm an old smoker when I get old."

Chen Mo smiled.

Li Mouyi: "Do you know why I picked you?"

Chen Mo shook his head frankly.

Li Mouyi: "Before you came to the audition, although I had great expectations, I was not sure that it was you. There are three reasons why I chose you. The first is that you have a good grasp of the character's emotions, which shows that you have really Have a down-to-earth study of the script. It’s not that the script is so important, but that this quality is very important. Second, some people can feel the emotions in it, but it’s useless if they can’t act it out, and you did it. Third, you The small details I added during the acting process are also very brilliant. Now some young actors are angry and angry, and basically rely on roaring. Exaggerated body movements and emotional release seem only exaggerated. And I can see it in your eyes. The gradual change of emotions, combined with the right movements, is even more powerful. You are a good seedling and should not be buried."

Chen Mo only bowed respectfully to him again.

"However, if the producer boy really gives you this role, don't think that I will relax my requirements on you, it will only be stricter, and I don't count on the heroine, and I have to rely on you to lead me in the opposite role. Rhythm."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and smoked for a while.

The evaluation of Li Mouyi's personality in the industry is divided into two extremes. Those who support him support him to the end, while those who oppose him hate him for years. However, every one of his works has a good reputation.

Chen Mo probably knows the reason, because this person is too meticulous in the requirements of his works, too rigid will be easy to break, the road in the world is "square and round", and his edges and corners are too sharp.

Li Mouyi took a sip of the cigarette butt, and exhaled the smoke ring. In the curling smoke, there was a sense of melancholy.

Li Mouyi: "I don't know when it started. People pay more attention to the topic itself than the acting itself. Many people regard the entertainment industry as a vanity fair for making money, and they all hope to make a lot of money from it. The environment has also become smoky."

"But an actor should have courage and faith, and the show business circle can't be completely confused with the entertainment circle. The times have changed, and there are really very few people who are purely acting in a well-tuned way and become popular. But there are some things that have to be stood by."

As Li Mouyi said, he is over 60 this year, and the four seasons have passed, and the years have left many marks on him.For example, the drooping corners of the eyes, such as the wrinkled cheeks, but when Li Mouyi talked about his views on actors, his eyes were shining, which made Chen Mo feel that he seemed to be reborn and had endless strength to stick to his beliefs.

Chen Mo was in awe, and also thought about his original intention.Then, all long journeys must have a predetermined destination, so what is the purpose of his departure?
