Mr. Chu

Chapter 16 Family

After getting the script, Gu Yang started to read it. Zhang He and Wei Yu walked aside and discussed some follow-up matters in a low voice.

The teenager's reading speed is relatively fast, not to mention that this is not a very detailed script, he finished it in a while.

Like his manager, he frowned slightly.

This story is adapted from a real story, and it comes from a tragic case that caused a sensation in the society a few years ago.

A single mother abandoned her four children one morning, leaving 800 yuan and a note, and disappeared into the crowd.

Her eldest son is 13 years old, her eldest daughter is eight years old, her second son is six years old, and her second daughter is three years old.

In the third- and fourth-tier small towns where the law is not widespread, these children have to face not only the embarrassing economic situation after their mother left, but also the malice of others in the town.In the end, the rotten corpse of the eldest son was found in the house, causing a sensational abandonment case across the country.

What Gu Yang wants to play is the protagonist of this movie, the eldest son of the family, A Ming.

The script of the film is very concise, very consistent with Wei Yu's style, with a lot of blank space and only a few real lines, leaving great room for the actors to play.

After reading the script, Gu Yang also slightly understood why Wei Yu chose him.

This film is very limited, and there is not much leeway when it comes to casting.Those successful film kings and queens are too old to play children.And the younger generation of child stars happens to be a generation that is out of reach. There are many people who are dedicated to idol singing and dancing, but few people are really willing to act.If Wei Yu doesn't want to rely on idols to attract box office and ruin the whole movie, he really has no choice.

But being able to find Gu Yang is also due to something in Gu Yang.

"I like...his eyes very much." When chatting with Zhang He, Wei Yu said straightforwardly: "There are many stories in his eyes, do you understand? It's the kind of feeling that you will be attracted when you look at them , I rarely see this feeling in young actors, he is a very special kid."

What Wei Yu didn't say was that he felt that Gu Yang had a feeling of loneliness and dreaminess that had been abandoned, which was very suitable for this role.The director's choice of actors is not only based on acting skills, but also on the degree of fit with the role. When he saw Gu Yang, he felt that this was A Ming in his heart, with the same pointed chin, big eyes, pale almost Transparent skin, dazed and innocent expression.

He is good at discovering the inner things of actors. Compared with the hardware such as facial features, he appreciates charm and temperament, which can be said to be unpredictable and invisible. The actors polished by him will always find their own suitable appearance and exude unique Same brilliance.

Such a famous director, Zhang He is naturally very relieved to entrust Gu Yang to him.He said with a smile: "Then Xiaoyang will be handed over to you, in terms of publicity..."

"There is no problem with this, we will focus on him." Wei Yu paused and said, "I know the remaining children, and I will make a list for you before starting the machine."

What else can Zhang He say, he is naturally very comfortable, look, this is the temperament of a famous director, what the hell was that before, fuck him.

After the two adults had finished talking, Wei Yu went to visit Gu Yang again, seeing that he had finished reading the script, he said, "Go back and think about it, don't be afraid, act the way you want to act."

Gu Yang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Which way should I go..."

"This depends on how you think about this role." Wei Yu said, his eyes under the sunglasses flickered: "Is it happy? Is it sad? Is it joy? Is it unhappy? What do you think he looks like? Whatever it should look like, you can act however you want, it’s fine.”

Zhang He was on the side, and his expression became subtle when he heard it. If the person who said this was someone else, he would definitely explode. Isn’t this irresponsible for leading a bad child? But Wei Yu, that’s different, he is He is notoriously indulgent towards actors, he never interferes with how the actors figure out their roles and how they interpret them.It’s just that after they have made their choice, they can add bricks and tiles to that aspect. It’s really not good. You can also edit it later. Cut it, cut it so that you don’t even recognize your parents, and you completely forget what you were acting in the first place.

Following this kind of director, the advantage is that you can do whatever you want, but the disadvantage is that you can do whatever you want too much. Those child actors who grew up on the TV drama assembly line since they were young are guaranteed not to be able to stand this battle.

However, Gu Yang was originally a half-finished product, and the wild wild grower also had a taste, maybe it just happened to suit his wishes, and he couldn't say for sure.Zhang He thought about the shiny awards in Wei Yu's hands, and felt that even if the performance failed this time, it would not be a loss to be the leading man in his film at a young age, so he calmed down.

Hearing this, Gu Yang frowned slightly. He is a very serious kid. He never contradicts the teacher's opinions in class, and only thinks that there is something wrong with him. In his opinion, since Director Wei said so, it must be That's right.He has to think hard and come up with the best way to play.

The two had their own concerns, and Wei Yu still had plans for today, so he said goodbye to them and set a time to meet next time.Zhang He took Gu Yang back, wanting to say something along the way, but couldn't open his mouth.

It was Gu Yang who saw it and asked him: "Brother Zhang, what's the matter?"

Zhang He hesitated for a moment, then leaned over and said to him, "It's certainly your ability that Director Wei has taken a fancy to you, but not everyone with ability will have the opportunity. You should thank you for this."

He slightly raised his chin towards the driver in front of him, it was the driver of the Chu family.Gu Yang understood in an instant, opened his eyes wide, and looked very unbelievable, then lowered his eyes and thanked him.

Zhang He is not quite sure what kind of relationship between him and Chu Jinye is. He reminded this point purely out of good intentions. It's still going to be a little uncomfortable.Gu Yang is a very well-behaved child with a very pleasing personality. Zhang He is devoted to him, and hopes that he can be careful in the world and don't stumble. After all, apart from your biological parents, who would treat you well for no reason?

All the way to Chu's house in silence, Chu was waiting for them in the hall tonight as usual, Zhang He finished his report, and left with interest.Gu Yang was left alone at the door, watching him.

Chu Jinye frowned, reached out to him and said, "What's wrong?"

Gu Yang walked over gently, stood in front of him, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Chu, did you arrange the matter of Director Wei?"

Chu Jinye paused for a moment, raised his eyes and said, "What did Zhang He tell you?" Before the young man could reply, he said again: "This kind of thing is very common in this circle, and if you don't do it, other people will do it. do not mind."

After he finished speaking, he was still a little worried, and decided that if Gu Yang refused in a particularly noble way, he would just scold him a few words, and then write a book another day to keep him from knowing.Unexpectedly, the young man shook his head, and said softly: "No, Mr. Chu, thank you, I just think that I'm so useless that I make you worry."

Chu Jinye was a little startled, he thought about it and understood the logic.From Gu Yang's point of view, it was purely because he didn't perform well and couldn't get the third male role in "Kung Fu", and was robbed of the role by Chen Dong, which led Chu to ask Wei Yu to ask for the role for him tonight.

After thinking about this, the man's heart suddenly softened. He didn't show his face, and motioned for Gu Yang to sit on his lap, and then asked, "Do you like "Kung Fu" or "Nobody Knows"?"

Gu Yang hesitated for a moment, but still answered honestly: "...no one knows."

"Would you like Baixi or Amin?"

"Amin."

"That's not enough." Chu Jinye said, "I'll let you play that whichever you like. If you like kung fu, I'll ask you to play the role back now. Wei Yu is my former classmate. I think he is He is a good director, he thinks you are a good actor, I offered you a chance, you grasped it, and you liked it, so why bother?"

"No..." The boy became nervous: "Mr. Chu, that's not the case..."

His words were stopped, and the man said without a doubt: "——Yangyang, do you regard me as a family member? If so, it is normal for me to do these things for you between family members. If your family members are bullied, you Would you just sit back and do nothing? You want a good role, and I have the ability to help you, why wouldn't I help? If you could help me, wouldn't you help?"

Gu Yang was left speechless by what he said, his whole face turned pink, feeling that his thoughts were too narrow, he said ashamedly: "...I'm sorry, Mr. Chu, I was wrong. I'm... glad you did this for me."

This sentence is true, since Gu Yang was born, he has never tasted the taste of being favored and loved by others. Now that he has it, he is not only apprehensive, but also happy, like a little hamster finally found its melon seeds, carefully licking it. I was very happy at once.

He was happy after all.

The boy lowered his head and showed his neck docilely to his guardian. He said softly, "Thank you, Mr. Chu."

Glad we are family.

Chu Jinye's eyes flickered for a moment, and he pursed his lips.

The author has something to say: Adapted from the Japanese "Nobody Knows", the original work has been greatly changed.

This film is very depressing, and it is comparable to Suyuan.It is not recommended for people with weak mental acceptance to watch.

The eldest son of the original book is only 12 years old, and the 14-year-old Japanese actor Yanagura Yuya won the Cannes Best Actor for this movie, and is the youngest Cannes Best Actor in history. #Reality is more Su series than books#

The last thing Mr. Chu wants to say is that it is not just family members.
