star [entertainment circle]

The second round of selection in the afternoon will start on time.

All the children and parents who participated in the selection were stopped outside the meeting room.Knowing that only one child is allowed to enter the second round of selection at a time, the parents couldn't help but feel their hearts hang.

Fortunately, the children have gone through the first round of selection, and they are much more courageous.

After one child after another was called into the conference room and quickly came out, the number of parents and children remaining outside the conference room dwindled.

Bai Huaijin came out from the side door and poked her head out, her eyes swept back and forth in the corridor, and she also looked at the children in the corner who were listening to the adults nagging with serious faces.

It's a difficult road for a child star.

He became a child actor by mistake, but it was only because of various chances and coincidences.Bai's mother saw that he really liked him, so she allowed him to join various production groups. But at that time, neither Bai's mother nor Bai Huaijin herself thought about relying on acting to make a living after adulthood.

However, it is probably because talent really exists.Therefore, when he stood in front of the camera again, he instantly regained the feeling of acting when he was a child.

"What are you thinking about?"

The back of the head was patted lightly, and Bai Huaijin turned around: "Brother Huo, tell me, what is acting to these children?"

Huo Zhang stood behind him, very close, and looked at the embarrassed parents in the corridor through the crack of the door.

"It's something that can make mom and dad smile." Huo Zhang's voice was serious.

Bai Huaijin opened her mouth and was about to speak, when Liu Yuan's voice sounded from behind: "What are you two talking about together? Hurry up, the mission for you two is about to start!"

The number of elevators going upstairs kept jumping, and finally stopped at the top floor. With a "ding", the door opened, and the wheelchair was pushed out of the elevator steadily.

The staff who had already been informed to wait in front of the elevator greeted them with smiles on their faces, and led the way in a polite manner.

"How is the selection going?"

"A few young actors have been preliminarily decided, and the selection of two young leading actors is now in progress." The other party walked through the corridor with a smile and led people to the meeting room.There were a few parents gathered outside the meeting room. When they saw a middle-aged man pushing an old man in a wheelchair, they couldn't help but take a few extra glances.

"Old Yan, it's over here."

After the voice fell, the door of the meeting room was gently pushed open.

It was as if a door separated the two worlds.Behind the opened door, as far as the eye can see, it seems to return to the world in the story in an instant.

The young man stood with his back to the door, his back was straight, his short hair and his clean shirt looked bookish.He rolled up his sleeves, his right hand seemed to be holding something, he was pressing nothingness with one hand, and raised his hand to write.He lowered his head and looked at the child standing beside him with his head up. He could clearly see a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

Noticing that the door of the meeting room was opened, Liu Yuan was about to get angry, but he couldn't help being surprised when he saw the person coming, and he was busy thinking about the young man who was performing in the middle of the room.But just as he was about to speak, the old man in the wheelchair waved his hand, signaling not to disturb the young man's performance.

Sun Xiuwen was originally puzzled by Bai Huaijin's action, but when he saw that he wrote a few words with his right hand in a decent manner, he suddenly understood.Isn't Bai Huaijin's current actions just like a teacher writing on the blackboard with a pen?

When everyone turned their attention to Bai Huaijin, he slowly opened his mouth: "Do you know this word?"

Bai Huaijin's voice became very gentle, with a hint of a smile at the end.After he finished speaking, he bowed his head and smiled: "This is your name, Jia, the crop of the crop. It means grain, and it is a good name."

After he finished speaking, after getting a response from the children around him, he looked back just right, moved two steps to the side, and wrote a few more words: "This is my name. Zhuang Yu, Zhuang of the crops, Dayu controls the water Yu."

"Is this the teacher's name?" The child raised his head, imitating him, and raised his hand to write a few words stroke by stroke, "This is...my name?"

"Yes, this is my name, and this is yours." Bai Huaijin bent down slightly, touched the top of the child's head with one hand, and propped the other on the "blackboard".

As he spoke, he moved his gaze upwards, just in the direction where Huo Zhang was sitting, but his gaze seemed to pass by his shoulder, and his expression became a little regretful.

"Yuan Jia." Bai Huaijin spoke again, stroking the child's soft hair one after another, "Do you and your friends want to study?"

He spoke slowly, looking at the thin and small child, as if he saw his former appearance through the child, and asked tentatively while stroking, "Will the teacher come to teach you how to read?"

The moment the voice fell, applause suddenly came from behind.Bai Huaijin froze for a moment, and subconsciously turned her head to look, only to see a wheelchair in front of the meeting room door behind her, and the old man sitting in the wheelchair was looking at him with uncontrollable excitement on his face.

Almost instantly, Bai Huaijin's expression changed.

He took a few steps to the wheelchair and squatted down, holding the old man's hand, he couldn't help shouting: "Grandpa Yan!"

Old Yan looked at the young man in front of him, frowned, and patted the back of his hand: "Good boy, you've grown up so much."

Mr. Yan read the re-adapted "Dragonfly" script word by word.Regarding Bai Huaijin's performance just now, he vaguely remembered that there were less than ten lines in total in that scene, all of which sounded insignificant, but they paid great attention to acting skills.In the old version of "Dragonfly", there is also this scene.But Bai Huaijin's performance was not as calm as in the old version, everything looked like a huge wave was brewing.Every line of his, which sounds meaningless, actually foretells many troubles that will happen later.

In the first sentence, he was explaining Yuan Jia's name.In the play, Yuan Jia is a country boy who is ten years old but has not yet read a book, because he is illiterate and does not know how to write his name or what it means.He is pressing the "blackboard" with his left hand and holding "chalk" with his right hand.One stroke at a time, the word "Yuanjia" was written down.

In the second sentence, he was explaining his own name to Yuan Jia.The role of Zhuang Yu was present in the old version. He was a poor child who came from a mountain village and was supported by others. After graduating from a normal school, he was assigned to the county seat. After the work was arranged, he came to the village alone with a bag on his back and volunteered to be a teacher here.

In the third sentence, when he answered Yuan Jia's question, he looked into the distance, looking at a few children hiding outside the leaky window.It seems that in the few children who tried to hide but failed, they saw themselves in the past because they were poor and had no money to go to school, so they could only hide from the window of the village school and eavesdrop.

The fourth sentence and the fifth sentence sound simple, but for the character Zhuang Yu, it is a difficult start.

Zhuang Yu chose to come to the village to teach, and he was not paid, because the county education bureau's teaching arrangements for this village have always suggested that they go to the county to go to school.Zhuang Yu ran around, and finally found a house in the village that could be used for students to attend classes, and it took a lot of effort to persuade the villagers to send the children to school.

Such difficult conditions did not start to improve until Xie Tao came to the village with his parents.The Xie family's investment has made the school decent.

If the old version of "Dragonfly" focused more on the friendship between children, the new version may add a description of education in impoverished mountainous areas based on the old version.This is the TV series that Liu Yuan wants to shoot for all ages, which has both social and educational significance.

Therefore, the role of Zhuang Yu plays an extremely important role in the whole play, and has a very tragic positioning.Bai Huaijin's actions and lines just now showed the sadness and helplessness of a young teacher who voluntarily came to the countryside in the face of a barren village.

"Grandpa Yan." Bai Huaijin squatted in front of the wheelchair, looking at Mr. Yan who hadn't seen him for many years, his eyes turned red, "How are you recently?"

Old Yan nodded with a smile and said, "Fortunately, it should last until you finish filming the TV series. I also want to see what the new "Dragonfly" looks like."

As he spoke, his eyes shifted to the main creators who all walked in front of him.Liu Yuan stepped forward a little excitedly, and shook his hand: "Old Yan, I will try my best to make "Dragonfly" well, so I won't embarrass you."

Yan Laole smiled happily, and seeing Huo Zhang beside him, he felt a little emotional: "It's been more than ten years, and I can still see Xiao Huo and Xiao Bai on TV. It's very good. They all eat like this Talent, it’s great to see that you have made good works and so many people like them.”

After all, as he was getting older, it was inevitable that Mr. Yan would repeat himself a bit when he spoke.He said "very good" over and over again, saying "very good" to everyone.In the following selection process, he repeated "very good" for every child who played with Bai Huaijin and Huo Zhang.The parents didn't understand why their children came out of the meeting room. Everyone said that a grandfather said that he acted very well, but Bai Huaijin understood.

The old man's mind has been on TV dramas all his life.The old man is very tolerant of every child who tries hard to show himself at a young age. No matter how good his acting skills are, it is good to have the courage.The phrase "very good" was what Mr. Yan used to say when he was filming "Dragonfly" more than ten years ago.This is still the case today.

The old man's body can't bear it.At the end of the selection meeting, Sun Xiuwen had arranged for someone to take them home.

Two young actors, Xie Tao and Yuan Jia, have already been settled.After reassuring his parents, Liu Yuan focused on the choice of other actors.

By the time everything was ready and "Dragonfly" officially entered the shooting stage, it had already entered November.
