Chapter 101 100. Interview with the crew (Part 2)
Nie Wei is going to perform today that Duan Yu is about to be used as fertilizer after being captured at Mantuo Villa. He saves his name by criticizing the camellia at Mantuo Villa.
The difficulty of this scene is that there is a long and convoluted introduction to the camellia, which tests the actor's line skills. In addition, it is necessary to show that Duan Yu is knowledgeable and calm in the face of danger. It is a rare literary drama.
At Zhang Jizhong's start, Nie Wei officially began his performance.
"There is a famous camellia in Dali, called 'Eighteen Scholars', which is the best in the world. There are eighteen flowers on one plant, each with a different color. The red ones are all red, and the purple ones are all purple. There is absolutely no mixture. Moreover, the eighteen flowers have different shapes, each with its own beauty. They bloom together when they bloom, and fade together when they fade. Madam, have you ever seen it?"
A long paragraph of lines came out of Nie Wei's mouth easily, and the yin and yang were reasonable. Although Nie Wei was introducing the knowledge of camellia in his words, he could give people a feeling of superiority. This is a sense of superiority brought by rich knowledge, and it was also a mentality that Duan Yu unconsciously brought when he said this. Nie Wei grasped it very well.
Zhang Jizhong, Yu Min and Liu Fang all nodded with satisfaction at this moment, especially Director Yu Min's eyes were the most appreciative. Nie Wei was very satisfied with Duan Yu's accurate grasp of his inner emotions. Such an actor is spiritual, and it will definitely be a lot easier if he uses him.
Zhang Jizhong was more satisfied with Nie Wei's image. He looked fair and clean, and had a very cultivated feeling, very similar to Duan Yu.
As for Liu Fang's appreciation of Nie Wei, it was more from "The Golden Age". This drama made the TV drama production department of Huaxia TV proud. At this moment, the first round has not been broadcast yet, but it has already exceeded 10. If nothing unexpected happens, let alone crushing "Return of the Pearl III", it may even win the annual ratings championship.
So this strong woman in her forties was pleasing to the eye no matter how she looked at Nie Wei, and Nie Wei's performance was naturally very satisfactory in her eyes.
"Okay, is there anything else besides this performance?" After watching for a while, Zhang Jizhong had a general impression of Nie Wei's acting skills, so he stopped Nie Wei's performance.
"I also know Chinese martial arts." Nie Wei said.
"Oh? Have you practiced since childhood? Have you won any awards?" Zhang Jizhong asked with some surprise.
"I am doing it out of personal interest and have never participated in any competitions." Nie Wei shook his head.
It turned out to be an amateur. Zhang Jizhong was a little uninterested. Liu Fang, who was standing by, saw Zhang Jizhong's expression and decided to help Nie Wei.
"Nie Wei, what do you know? Show us a set?"
"Okay, I'll demonstrate the basic routines of Baguazhang." Nie Wei calmed down and took a stance on the spot.
Baguazhang emphasizes the body shape like a swimming dragon, the waist like an axis, twisting, drilling and turning, flexible and not stagnant, the body moves with the steps, the palm changes with the body, the steps turn with the palm, the upper and lower parts are coordinated, the whole body moves without moving, twisting and turning like flowing water, and turning up and down like a proud dragon.
To put it bluntly, this Baguazhang routine is elegant and beautiful, and it is quite attractive.
Didn't you notice that the three teachers' eyes were all wide open, especially Zhang Jizhong, who originally disdained Nie Wei's so-called martial arts hobby, after all, it was nothing special to have two hands in this industry, but when Nie Wei really set up his posture to practice the Eight Diagrams Palm, the agile and graceful movements between each move really surprised this martial arts film master.
Master!!!
This was the only thought in Zhang Jizhong's mind.
And this idea was undoubtedly similar to what Yu Min and Liu Fang were thinking at the moment. Although they didn't understand it very well, Nie Wei's smooth and natural moves and steps were really pleasing to the eye.
"Very good." After Nie Wei finished the routine, Zhang Jizhong immediately commented happily.
"Nie Wei, you can go back. We will notify your company of the results as soon as possible." Yu Min on the side also nodded, and at the same time indicated that Nie Wei's interview was over. After all, he had seen both the literary and martial arts dramas, and could make a general evaluation.
Nie Wei nodded obediently, without staying for long, bowed slightly and left the meeting room, and gently closed the door.
"A very polite child." Liu Fang saw everything Nie Wei did and admired it very much.
"Not only is he polite, but he is also very talented. The set of Baguazhang he just performed was really good. I think it is completely possible to intercept a few moves and make them into the martial arts of the Xiaoyao Sect. It is agile and elegant, very suitable." Yu Min also expressed his own suggestions.
Although both of them were very optimistic about Nie Wei's performance, the final decision was still in Zhang Jizhong's hands.
Zhang Jizhong listened to the words of the two people beside him. Nie Wei did give him a good impression, but to be honest, he still had his concerns.
"Will Nie Wei's height stand out?"
"I don't think it's a big deal. Besides, isn't the little girl who plays Wang Yuyan nearly 1.7 meters tall? The two of them are a perfect match."
"But the Lin Zhiying we saw before is also good. He is gentle and refined. The key is that he has a lot of appeal in Taiwan."
"You can't ignore Nie Wei's appeal in the mainland. Recently, he is one of the most popular male stars in the mainland. I think the mainland market is more important."
The three people discussed for a long time, but they didn't reach a conclusion in the end. After all, he is one of the three protagonists of Tian Long, and he is also the most popular Duan Yu. It is not so easy to make up your mind to give the role to an actor.
"Okay, let's end the discussion today. We'll discuss who the role will be at the next meeting." Zhang Jizhong looked at his watch and decided.
The other two naturally had no objections.
However, Nie Wei, who had left Jizhong Culture Company long ago, did not return to Huayi. Instead, he asked Luo Kai to take him to a hotel for a banquet.
"Nie Wei, what's the result?" Luo Kai finally couldn't help but ask while driving.
"I've done what I need to do, and I don't know the result." Nie Wei replied, and then smiled: "I thought Brother Luo could hold back and not ask questions."
"Haha, I care about you too. This opportunity is really rare." Luo Kai smiled sheepishly. At first, he was really afraid of bringing psychological pressure to Nie Wei and didn't ask, but Nie Wei remained calm. He couldn't figure out an answer, so he couldn't help but asked anyway.
Soon they arrived at the hotel.
"I have ordered a table for you. You can have dinner here, but don't drink the wine. You will take me home later." Nie Wei said directly to Luo Kai after getting off the car.
Luo Kai's eyes widened and he choked on his words for a moment. He really didn't expect that Nie Wei would order a meal for him, and at the same time, he silently felt a sense of recognition in his heart.
Not long after Nie Wei entered the hotel, a Nissan Toyota Land Cruiser also arrived at the hotel. The driver was Zhang Jizhong, who had just finished the interview. The reason why he ended the discussion so hastily was because he was rushing to a dinner.
But when he walked into the hotel and opened the box door, he seemed to hear a familiar voice.
"Mahayana classics are mainly "wonderful Dharma". They use clever methods to promote and explain Buddhism so that people with poor understanding can understand and accept it. In the "Lotus Sutra", the Buddha used many methods such as burning houses, ox carts, heavy rains, etc. I use simple metaphors to explain Buddhism to the world, just to make people believe it.”
"Yes, yes, you said it very well. In fact, it is difficult for me to be convinced by some Buddhist scriptures that are full of incredible content at first. I prefer the "Original Buddhist Scriptures", which are concise and simple in content and close to real life. However, after understanding the 'Wonderful Dharma', I also gained a new understanding of Mahayana Buddhism. It is rare for you to have such an understanding at such a young age."
Zhang Jizhong felt that his ears seemed to have an illusion. How could he meet him again? But when he pushed open the door of the box completely and fixed his gaze on a young man, the surprise on his face could no longer be concealed.
