I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad

Chapter 250: 248. Self-mutilation (thanks to the leader of "mercury11"

  Chapter 250 248. Self-mutilation (thanks to the leader of "mercury11"!)

   "Xiao Ming, did you ask about Yang Mi last time? Her contract expires in the first half of next year. Does she have any intentions for the next step?"

  In the commercial vehicle, Huang Xiaoming opened his half-closed eyes when he heard what his manager Zhou Siwei said.

  His eyes are actually different from usual at the moment, more or less vicious and cold.

  It seems that the temperament of the whole person also has a completely different change.

  Even the voice of speaking has become a little weird, and it is no longer that straight and round.

   "Wo didn't ask, it's not easy to ask about this kind of thing."

   Very weird Mandarin.

   It’s not a dialect, but a deliberately contrived sense of “pretending to be a foreigner”.

   Zhou Siwei was not surprised, he just nodded:

   "Then... Try to leave Director Xu for lunch at noon, so I can chat with him about Yang Mi."

   While talking, the car has arrived at the parking space.

  The car door was opened, and Zhou Siwei got out of the car without waiting for Huang Xiaoming:

   "I'm going to the bathroom."

  Huang Xiaoming didn't say a word. After getting off the car, he stepped on two steps to the entrance of this small office building, and saw a piece of A4 paper stuck on the guide sign at the entrance.

  There is a line on the paper:

   ""The Sound of the Wind" audition, please go to the third floor and turn left."

  He had an idea in mind, but he was not in a hurry to go in.

   Instead, he took out a cigarette from his pocket.

  Put the cigarette on his nose and smell it, as if stimulated by some smell, he rubbed his nose again.

   It's like having rhinitis.

   Finally put it on the mouth and lit it, and then began to pace around with half-closed eyes.

   Here's his audition status.

  Each actor prepares for the audition of the role, including the steps of relaxing, entering the role, and acting.

  Everyone's habit is to follow their own most comfortable pace.

   For Huang Xiaoming, the most comfortable state for him is to sleep until he wakes up naturally, and then drink a glass of warm water.

  Skip breakfast, because eating full will make his spirit feel tired.

Therefore, after drinking this glass of water, he will not eat any more, and maintain the "permeability" from the inside out and the slight discomfort of lack of food in his stomach to keep his spirit in the mood of wanting to eat. When you go off track, you will only notice these discomforts instead of thinking about others.

   And then… keep it until the audition is over.

  In the middle, he can communicate with people, but the people he communicates with should not talk too much or too little.

   Too much, let him play.

   Less, it will make him unable to grasp the state of the character.

   Then when he arrived at the audition scene, he didn't need others to control him from the moment he got out of the car.

  I will go to the audition directly after making sufficient preparations outside according to my understanding of the characters.

   And now is the state when he is preparing.

  Because in his setting, the character "Takeda" should be lonely in his heart.

   It has nothing to do with good or evil, but his self-righteousness.

  And this kind of self-righteousness also has a little self-confidence, but it is actually a narcissistic emotion.

   There must be a little cleanliness, otherwise it will not match the punishment for physical examination.

  Should not smoke too much, he seems to be rational above everything else, tobacco can only be used to refresh oneself, or a transition when the mood fluctuates.

   must not be a dependency.

Etc., etc.

   These details, he adjusted a little bit.

   Adjusted, he will go up.

  Even though it was a bit late, he had already greeted Xu Xin before, so he didn't panic.

   This is not the time to pay attention to human feelings, but to show the professional level of an actor.

   Then, a car engine sounded in his ears.

  He ignored it, still pacing.

   Then I heard the movement of the car door, and the surprised voice under the footsteps:

   "Brother Xiaoming?"

   "..."

  Huang Xiaoming paused.

  The mental level of entering the play was a little unstable.

   Subconsciously turned his head to look with some dissatisfaction, but immediately the dissatisfaction in his eyes turned into doubt, and then gradually turned into surprise.

  Liu Yifei?

   Even though he was wearing a peaked cap and a mask, he recognized those eyes immediately after seeing those eyes.

  Liu Yifei...?

  He blinked quickly...

  But after Liu Yifei saw his appearance, as a "little dragon girl", she had seen how Huang Xiaoming entered the role state with her own eyes, and she nodded immediately:

   "Brother Ming, you need to prepare first, I'm going to audition."

   After finishing speaking, she nodded politely to Huang Xiaoming, lowered the brim of her hat and crossed Huang Xiaoming.

   "..."

   Huang Xiaoming's eyes finally jumped out of that state of mind, and was quickly replaced by a touch of doubt.

   After regaining consciousness for a short time, his mind began to spin rapidly.

  Didn't I tell Xu Xin about Liu Yifei's situation?

   I said it.

  Then why...she still comes?

  She said just now that she wanted to audition...

  But he has read the entire script of "The Wind", and there are only two female characters. One is Li Ningyu and the other is Gu Xiaomeng.

   Gu Xiaomeng is Yang Mi, and Li Ningyu is Liang Bingning.

   Will these two change?

  Don't say it's changed... He doesn't even believe that his junior has an affair with Liu Yifei behind Yang Mi's back.

  Because the problem now is not my junior, but Liu Yifei herself.

  She was repulsed by the circle.

  So... Gu Xiaomeng and Liang Bingning are impossible.

  Who is she auditioning for? …Um?

  Suddenly, Huang Xiaoming thought of a possibility.

  But after thinking of this possibility, a kind of absurdity was born in my heart.

this…

impossible!

   Absolutely impossible!

  How could she play this role?

impossible.

  But apart from this role, there is no other reason!

  Even if she plays this role, what good does she have? …benefit? wait, is it...

  In a daze, Liang Bingning, Xu Xin, Xiying Studio... A series of key words came out of his heart.

   And with these keywords, there are two guesses.

  One is... Is Xiying Studio not afraid of being tricked like the first two "taken advantage"?

  The second is... this matter, what kind of role did the junior brother play in this matter?

   "..."

   "Huh...Xiao Ming, what's the matter, can I go in?"

   While he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard the words of his manager Zhou Siwei.

  He woke up like a dream.

   Subconsciously turned his head to look at him, Zhou Siwei was taken aback by the frowning look, and asked words of concern:

   "Are you okay? Can't enter the state?"

"…fine."

   After being silent for a while, Huang Xiaoming shook his head.

  He chose to remain silent because he knew that his agent was an unwavering supporter of the company. Therefore, if he said something about Liu Yifei, the company would definitely report it, and Huayi would send more female artists over.

  In this case...it's not necessary.

  So, he chose to conceal and remain silent.

  But when he was about to enter the character's heart again, the last thought in his mind was an afterthought:

   "It seems that the attitude towards Liu Yifei needs to be changed."

  …

  Hearing that Liu Yifei was going to audition, the people present were silent for about five or six minutes.

  Nobody knew what to say.

  The matter of Hua Yi and Liu Yifei has actually spread in the circle.

  Although the details may not be clear to many people, they all understand that an actor who offends Hua Yi, a behemoth, will probably not end well.

   Now Liu Yifei is willing to audition for a small role, which is evident.

  That is the heroine of "The King of Kung Fu".

  The new generation of celebrities who "suppressed" Li Bingbing.

   But time has passed, how long has it been...

  So, each of them has a sense of feng shui turning, uh, right and wrong, in their hearts.

   But Qi Lei was the quickest to wake up, and asked in a low voice:

   "Then... how to define it?"

   "Friendly cameo."

  Hearing this, Qi Lei probably had an answer in his heart, and nodded:

"no problem."

   "It doesn't have to be her yet, let's watch the show first."

   "..."

   "..."

   "..."

  So, while waiting in silence, Liu Yifei opened the door and walked in.

  Seeing the battle of these dozens of people, there was no tension in her eyes. After she finally looked away from Xu Xin, she had already taken off her mask and hat.

  Standing in front of the cross tape, bowed politely, and introduced myself:

   "Hi directors, I'm Liu Yifei. I'm here today to audition for the role of the unknown female killer."

  Height or something is not introduced.

   Not needed either.

  But after hearing her words, Xu Xin said:

   "Thank you, Yifei, for making you travel so far."

  Liu Yifei pursed her lower lip before nodding:

   "Director Xu is too polite. Then... can I start?"

   "emmmm..."

  Xu Xin thought for a while, then suddenly asked:

   "This character actually appeared for a short time, can you explain your understanding?"

"able."

  Liu Yifei responded, and slowly expressed her understanding:

"This role is to promote the appearance of Wang Tianxiang and the "Six Lord" who used acupuncture, and to reflect the role of cruel punishments within the Wang Puppet and the Japanese. In terms of expressiveness, what I want to present is that this role is Pain and persistence during torture.

  Even if she was eaten by eight girls, she did not reveal any information about the underground lurkers. Until Liu Ye appeared.

  The more painful I behave, the more cruel the methods of "Six Masters" can be brought out. In this way, in the later stage, facing Liu Ye's torture methods, Wu Zhiguo forcibly carried three needles to echo my scene, and it can even show how firm the inner will of an unknown hero for the country and the nation.

  So, I exist as the most direct expression of Wu Zhiguo’s suffering. Everything he encounters is based on my pain. When the audience sees him, they will naturally be able to combine the two characters into one. So, this role is actually...very important! "

   "!"

   "..."

   "..."

   "..."

   Let alone Xu Xin, everyone showed a surprised expression.

  Audition for the role of "Gu Xiaomeng" this morning, the actresses who performed the torture scene... there are about a dozen of them?

  Usually, Xu Xin would only ask this question after the performance.

  Because he wants to see the dishes under the pot.

   Those with bad acting skills, such as that girl named Wang Xiaochen...

   The voice is not small, but the acting is a mess.

   is not qualified to be asked.

  The acting skills are not up to standard, so what is the understanding?

   But some actors with acceptable acting skills, who showed that kind of pain, Xu Xin will ask more or less.

   And the answers obtained are also different.

  Some people say that it "reflects the animal behavior of the Japanese".

   It is true that some people say "this expresses the suffering we have suffered, and reflects today's hard-won"...

   Overall, on these two interpretations.

   According to reading comprehension, it belongs to the precise definition of the topic.

  However, there is a lack of corresponding story titles.

  Liu Yifei was the first to link this unknown female killer with Wu Zhiguo.

   is also the definition of each role by the people who best meet these director groups.

  Including Xu Xin, everyone felt a little approval in their hearts.

  But everyone didn't show it, but heard Xu Xin say:

   "Okay, someone will play with you in a while. Pick up the props yourself, and you have a minute to prepare."

"OK."

  After hearing this, Liu Yifei nodded, turned around and picked up the chair next to her, moved to the position of the cross tape, and suddenly took out a small bottle from her handbag.

   A group of people were attracted by her actions, but they didn't understand what this small bottle was for.

   But soon Liu Yifei opened the vial and squeezed out some transparent glue-like stuff.

   Then start to smear the whole hand.

   Disinfecting gel?

   Seeing this movement, everyone became more confused after they understood what was in the bottle.

  Liu Yifei has a cleanliness?

   While thinking about it, everyone noticed that she paid special attention to cleaning her nails.

   After rubbing the inside and outside of the nails of her hands for a while, she took off the down jacket on her body, revealing a thin cotton T-shirt.

   Then the whole person put his hands behind his back and sat on the chair.

   took a deep breath.

   "Hiss~~~~"

   "Hoo..."

  At this moment, Xu Xin thought for a while, and beckoned to the director of the script, and took over the script.

   At the same time, he opened the teacup in front of him and poured some water into it.

"time up."

  The drama manager was stuck in time to speak.

  Liu Yifei also opened his eyes.

  In the quiet audition hall, her slight panting sounded.

   "Hiss~~hoo, hoo, hoo..."

  The voice is rapid and intermittent.

   It's like suffering from something.

   But she stared straight at the director without blinking.

   But the muscles on his face began to twitch.

  An instinct of enduring pain emerged with the knuckles of the brows.

   "Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss~"

   Every gasp is intermittent.

  Just by listening to her breathing, she could tell that she was suffering from a kind of continuous pain.

   But Li Pingdong, who was sitting on the farthest side, frowned suddenly...

  At this time, Xu Xin glanced at the script and said:

   "Well, it smells so good."

   In a word, Liu Yifei shuddered, and Xu Xin's figure was reflected in his frightened eyes.

   "Tell me, where did your information come from?"

   "..."

   Liu Yifei has no lines.

  Just the body began to tremble.

  Suddenly, he trembled violently, and there was a movement of tilting his head forward.

  Hold chest.

  Because Wang Tianxiang brushed her chest with a brush full of spices.

  This chest holding is the instinct of not wanting to be touched by others.

  His chest in his chest first, then his head began to tilt back again, turning his head to one side, his lips trembled, but his eyes were closed.

   It's like being humiliated.

  Because, Wang Tianxiang's brush has brushed from her chest to her neck.

  Itching, pain, and smell turned into fuel for fear.

  But as her eyes closed, her lips pursed hard.

   Sip very hard.

  Xu Xin, who had been paying attention to her micro-expression after speaking, nodded, picked up the teacup, and spilled the water in the cup on the ground.

   There was a "Zi La" sound.

   Then came a sentence:

   "Eight girls, come on."

   "..."

  Liu Yifei's body suddenly fell back, her feet began to push the ground, and she wanted to back away in fear.

  Her strength was indeed not small, and the chair and the tiled floor made a rubbing movement.

   After having this appearance of struggling on the ground, she suddenly let out a painful cry.

   is the real sense of mourning.

   It’s not the kind of screaming like Wang Xiaochen pulling his neck, but a sound from the throat, because the tongue can’t move freely because of clenching his teeth, and the sound comes from there:

   "Ughhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

  At this time, she began to shake her head, but the frequency of shaking her head was not high, but a set of movements of "turning her head quickly, stiffening her whole body, gritting her teeth, and then turning her head quickly".

  Because her hands were behind her back, when her body began to twist on the chair, it felt as if someone had cut off her arm, and the struggle was futile.

  Even Xu Xin saw the veins on her neck.

   And cheeks flushed from gnashing teeth!

   "Director Xu..."

  Li Pingdong suddenly spoke...

  But Xu Xin raised his hand instantly.

  Give him to stop talking.

   "..."

   At this moment, a twenty-year-old young man who has been in the old world for a lifetime is being stopped in this way. Strictly speaking, it is a bit embarrassing.

   But no one cares.

  Because everyone's brows were furrowed.

  But the director didn't stop.

   Then it cannot stop.

   I kept watching Liu Yifei in this bewitched state, struggling on the chair until he finally lost strength in his lower back and lowered his head.

   "OK, stop."

   After speaking, he stood up and walked quickly towards the pale Liu Yifei.

Walking up to her who was still panting heavily, Xu Xin didn't say a word, and even pushed her back a little roughly, letting her sit on the chair and lean forward, slightly lifting her shirt. T-shirt.

  Actually, logically speaking, it shouldn’t be like this, and there are differences between men and women.

   But the problem is...Liu Yifei can't see it.

   so cannot be evaluated.

   As for evaluating what...

   You can tell by looking at the bloodshot nail prints on the back.

   "...It's okay, it's bleeding, but luckily you didn't be stupid and dig it to death..."

   He breathed a sigh of relief.

  Liu Yifei sat up subconsciously with a blush on the tips of his bloodless ears, and looked up at him with pain in his eyes.

   "...Is the assistant here?"

"without…"

  Hearing this, Xu Xin sighed helplessly, and said:

   "Go to the first floor and wait. I'll ask my assistant to take you to disinfect and apply iodine... You don't have a scar constitution, do you?"

   "Hiss...it's okay."

   "This is not the director and actor, I'm telling you as a friend. Okay, go and wait, I'll let the assistant contact you."

   Speaking of this, he paused.

  Hand clapped her shoulder:

   "Good job, great performance."

   One sentence.

   Liu Yifei's eyes suddenly turned red.

  But she didn't continue to say anything, but stood up silently, and bowed politely to everyone:

   "Thank you, directors."

   Bending down to pick up the bag, carrying the clothes and walking out silently.

  From receiving the call to waiting for her to when she left.

  It took less than ten minutes in total.

   But in exchange, everyone was silent for more than a minute after she left.

  Finally, Xu Xin who put down his phone spoke.

   "She's the best at the moment, there's no doubt about that."

  Li Haiping also nodded:

   "Well, although I don't agree with this way of acting...but her understanding of the role, as well as this energy...I think it's okay."

"…well."

  Li Pingdong suddenly sighed:

   "My nephew likes her very much... If he knew about her "self-harm", he might be very sad."

   After finishing speaking, he turned to his apprentice Lin Li and said:

   "Just now, go back and look at it."

   After a while, Liu Yifei's performance on the screen started again.

   After more than a minute of performance time, after everyone watched in silence, Xu Xin said:

   "Do you have any objections? If not, I will make a final decision... President Qi?"

  Hearing that he called himself specifically, Qi Lei knew what Xu Xin meant, so he seemed somewhat hesitant.

  Xu Xin also knew why he was hesitating.

   I also have a thought in my heart.

  Because of this decision, it actually requires some pressure.

  But these pressures...compared to her performance just now, and the friendship between Yang Mi and her...

   It seems that it is not worth mentioning.

   Then add a sentence:

   "I think the play is very good."

  As soon as these words came out, Qi Lei shook his head with a smile:

   "Director Xu said yes, then it will do."

   "...Okay, let's go ahead. Call the next one."

  …

   "One Philippine."

  Stairs leading to the third floor, Huang Xiaoming saw Liu Yifei walking out, with a happy smile on his face this time greeting.

  Liu Yifei, who was still pale, was stunned for a moment, and this time she also took the initiative to take off the mask:

   "Brother Ming."

   "Well, it's over?"

"…right."

   "Is that so... I believe you are absolutely fine! Maybe the two of us will join a crew again."

"Well…"

  Liu Yifei was stunned, a smile appeared on his face, and he bowed politely:

   "Brother Xiao Ming, please do your best."

   "Well, good. I'll go up first... Are you free tonight?"

"…some."

   "...?"

  Huang Xiaoming was dumbfounded when he heard this.

   But the words have already been spoken... After he reacted, he nodded:

   "Well, contact me tonight? When I was on the set, I said I would treat you to a very delicious hot pot."

   Then I heard Liu Yifei say:

   "Okay, Brother Xiao Ming, I will definitely be there!"

   "..."

  Huang Xiaoming was stunned again, then laughed:

"Um!"

   "Brother Ming, come on!"

"haha ok!"

  The two are separated.

   Liu Yifei hurried downstairs.

   After reaching the third floor, Huang Xiaoming, who passed by Zhang Jiao who was also hurriedly walking, was full of doubts in his eyes.

   It's weird.

  The sun came out from the west?

  …

   "Huang Xiaoming's drama is still very stable."

   "Well, I like the somewhat morbid quality he himself put on Takeda."

   "...But I always have a vague impression that he is playing the role of the president of a listed company. What's going on?"

   "Xu Wenqiang has watched too much?... What does Director Xu think?"

"It's not bad, it took a lot of thought. Like Liu Yifei, he has a complete script, which I gave before. Therefore, the grasp of the character's heart is indeed richer than others. I think...he can enter the second round The audition is the same as the roles that can be selected today, after everyone gets the complete script, try again."

"Can…"

   "Agreed."

"good."

   "...Then let's do this this morning first, let's go have a meal, the cafeteria is ready."

  Finally, following Qi Lei's words, the entire cast ended the morning audition.

   When going out, the director and the actors did not interfere with each other.

  After finishing the meal, Zhang Jiao walked in when Xu Xin was smoking in the lounge:

   "Director Xu, it's over."

   "Hmm... Seriously?"

   "Fortunately, it is true that the meat was picked, but it can be recovered after disinfection. Fortunately, it was killed by picking, not scratching, otherwise the meat may be left with scars. But there is no problem now..."

  Xu Xin let out a long sigh of relief.

   "Huh... that's fine."

  Hearing this, Zhang Jiao thought for a while and asked:

   "Director Xu, why...why did she do that?"

   "Because she's an actress."

"Well…"

  Zhang Jiao was stunned.

   Obviously did not understand what Xu Xin meant.

   "Acting is not about making expressions, nor is it about imitating others. There is a saying in this industry, which is called: What we need is a hungry actor, not an actor who performs hungry. She wants to express the pain of the character, so feel the pain."

   Now, Zhang Jiao understood, and her eyes were full of disbelief:

   "She... She picks her own flesh just for the pain of playing this role?"

"Um."

   "..."

  That’s Liu Yifei!

   Fairy sister Liu Yifei!

  Let the gods... pick their own flesh?

   Perform in this self-harming way?

   Zhang Jiao didn't know what other people would think when they heard the news.

   But here, after hearing this, she only had one thought in her mind.

  This man...

   Are you so cruel to yourself? !

   Thanks to the leaders of "mercury11" and "Dongcheng Huangtu". This month owes four more! Guaranteed quality and quantity, must clear the account!
