I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 196 "Qinyuanchun Changsha in Classics"!
"Zhou Jielun's program still needs to be changed!"

“Just singing may not be creative enough!”

"The review of the group Rising Sun Yang Gang actually seems to be quite satisfactory?"

"And the Xidan girl..."

Outside CCTV's Studio No. 1, Liu Gang occasionally glanced at some feedback from inside the venue.

The review is actually very distressing.

Even as the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala, Liu Gang does not have any right to decide the program; he can only give invitations.

Whether or not you will be selected depends on the judges.

This is just like an actor's audition. The casting director is responsible for recruiting actors, and the final casting depends on the audition.

The current review is just like an audition.

Chen Jin thought that the review was held in the conference room on the 9th floor, but unexpectedly it was held directly in Studio 1. The assembly was on the 9th floor.

The main reason was that the location Liu Gang sent him was there, so Chen Jin had some misunderstandings.

And this Studio No. 1 is very famous.

This hall is the exclusive studio for the Spring Festival Gala, and is also responsible for the recording of almost all large-scale variety shows and events of CCTV.

Many leaders have sat in the audience.

With more than 1000 seats, the entire hall is actually not that big and cannot be compared with the theaters of the National Theatre of China or the National Theatre of China; but the deceptive image transmitted through the camera makes the audience think that the studio is very large.

This was originally a circular garden in the compound of CCTV. Due to the development needs of CCTV itself, it was planned to be converted into a studio and designed as a building with a hemispherical grid roof.

From 1998 to the present, along with the annual Spring Festival Gala, this hall has witnessed countless Chinese people's New Year's Eve carnival.

It was once the pride of CCTV.

However, from today's perspective, the studio is indeed small and the auditorium is rather simple.

Apart from the empty space in front, there are only a few rows of auditoriums. However, the stage design and lighting design have been innovated year after year, making this originally small stage more beautiful and spacious every year.

It was not easy for Chen Jin to find a dressing room. Fortunately, it was just an inspection today. If it was really a live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala, he would definitely be scolded for the makeup he put on.

It is said that only Zhao Benshan and artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan have dedicated dressing rooms, while everyone else still has to put on makeup outside.

I have to say, it’s already 2010, and there are still special treatments for artists from these two regions. Chen Jin thinks it’s really fucked up.

Are mainland artists not human beings?!

Amid the commotion in the dressing room, Chen Jin looked at her makeup in the mirror and thought it was okay.

90% restoration, it really can't be compared with Lao Qin's craftsmanship.

The makeup artist from CCTV obviously tried his best. It took him more than an hour in total to do the makeup. He became more and more excited as the process went on, and he kept taking photos with Chen Jin.

It was the first time that Zhu Yanmanzi saw Chen Jin put on makeup in real life.

Fortunately, Chen Jin brainwashed her with photos every other day, otherwise she might not be able to perform well in the subsequent examination.

However, several months of experience on stage in dramas has indeed made Zhu Yanmanzi less stage frightened, which is already praise enough, so some training in school is still very useful.

Acting in front of the camera is really different from acting in a drama. Stage plays often train an actor's state of mind.

"It's a pity for your long hair!"

Chen Jin looked at Zhu Yanmanzi who was wearing the makeup of a leading actress, with short hair that reached her ears and a blue outfit worn by girls in the Republic of China. She looked pure but also had a firm tone.

"It's nothing to regret, the role requires it!"

"I'd like to be bald, too. At worst, I can wear a wig."

Student Xiao Zhu smiled brightly, which was very different from his usual calm and aloof temperament. It was obvious that he had begun to immerse himself in the role.

Especially her eyes, very bright and hopeful.

Many actors cannot do this.

Mr. You Benchang, who plays Jigong, is over 90 years old. When he suddenly gets into the role on the stage, his eyes are as sharp as torches, bright and full of spirit.

This is all practiced.

And it is daily basic skills, such as fixed eye exercises, eye movement exercises, eye flexibility training... What you can see is the glamorous side of many actors, but many actors really persist day after day.

Just like Chen Jin’s daily training.

Xiao Zhu, who was led by Chen Jin, did not dare to forget for a single day and basically kept in sync with Chen Jin.

Liang Chaowei practices his eyes every day, day after day. His acting is actually average, but his eyes are dramatic and the director especially likes him.

The art film has a lot of feeling.

So now, just by looking at his eyes, Zhu Yanmanzi has already killed Li Xi in an instant.

Not to mention temperament and feeling.

Li Wei is still at the superficial level of acting, but Zhu Yanmanzi, like Chen Jin, has already entered the level of the role.

The form, the lines, the voice and the performance all come together in one.

This is what real acting is.

Rather than just staying on the surface.

Young actors often brag about being good at crying scenes, but there are many types of crying scenes, and they have to suit various scenarios; getting into the role is the most difficult part of the performance, and many actors cannot even get into the role in their entire lives.

Some are too young and enter too hard, and cannot be pulled out once in.

The younger one is when he gets into the role, the greater the harm will be, because he has no experience and ability to handle it.

For example, Zhu Jie, the leading female role in Lu Xuechang's "Growing Up", who was in the same class as Xu Fan, Jiang Shan and Chen Xiaoyi, played a drug addict who got so immersed in the role that she became addicted to drugs and eventually died of an overdose.

This kind of thing is just too deep, and the role played is too extreme, so it's very easy for something to go wrong.

For Chen Jin, because she has a system, as for Zhu Yanmanzi, this kind of role is not very threatening, but can improve her performance control ability.

"Let's go!"

Chen Jin happily told Zhu Yanmanzi that this was a rare happy moment in his life.

The two people walked towards Hall No. 1. During the walk, many people came towards them, and some were walking in the same direction as them, but as soon as they saw the two people for the first time, they would subconsciously be stunned.

Then he turned his head and looked at her with his mouth open.

The image was so profound that the first sight of it in real life was quite shocking. The main reason was that I was not prepared.

Liu Gang was looking at the time. The morning examination was about to end. There was no rule on who went in first and who went in later, but some appointments were for the afternoon, so a few couples didn't get in in the morning.

"Hasn't that boy finished his makeup yet?"

Liu Gang muttered to himself, it’s been almost an hour and a half, he has to go in last.

There is actually no advantage in this last place. Although the review is very strict, people have fatigue and tolerance. The judges are also human beings, and they are leaders of CCTV, including the station director, industry experts, etc. They need to eat, and some will get hungry, which will affect the judgment of a judge.

That's why Zhou Jielun and others were arranged to go in first.

The sudden discussion in his ears made Liu Gang turn his head.

When he saw two people walking towards him in the corridor, Liu Gang thought he was dizzy from hunger.

In the singing and dancing censorship passage where a group of people in modern clothes were walking around, two men and women in clothes from the Republic of China came over with firm steps. No one present could withstand such a sense of déjà vu and impact, let alone Liu Gang.

Especially, Chen Jin acted so realistically.

"..."

Liu Gang finally understood why Chen Jin took so long to put on makeup.

This guy has become a different person.

When Liu Gang thought of the program video that Chen Jin had sent him before, he suddenly got goose bumps all over his body.

The visuals are too intense.

He had never thought about it that way before.

He only thought that Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi were interpreting their love and ideals when they were young, using three poetry recitations to create a plot.

I never thought about putting on makeup.

Because of Chen Jin's appearance, no one would consider that direction.

But at this moment, Liu Gang was really trembling all over.

Two people reciting their love and aspirations in this way, this kind of positive energy is needed in every era.

"Director Liu!"

Chen Jin and the other person walked up to Liu Gang. Liu Gang had come back to his senses and was extremely excited.

"Next one, next one will be here soon!"

Liu Gang was already completely impatient.

Because the performance Chen Jin performed in the video was very good even without makeup.

Of course, this was also thanks to several phone calls made by Zhang Yimou, his planning, and his many ideas, as well as some inspiration from the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics.

"it is good!"

Chen Jin smiled slightly, and Zhu Yanmanzi next to him glanced at Chen Jin with a smile.

Like the warmest sunshine in spring.

"Like, so similar!"

"This show you two are going to be a blast!"

Liu Gang could imagine it, and he had many more thoughts in his mind.

But we have to wait until the program is approved.

He has many versions of this show that can be improved. What if there is a modern person who has a conversation with the two of them?
When he thought of this, Liu Gang's heart began to beat faster. Could he even do a program about dialogue between the past and the present?

I have to say that many directors of cultural and artistic programs have very active minds.

They just lack an idea that can stimulate their thinking.

And now, Chen Jin's appearance and the performance made Liu Gang's brain diverge all of a sudden.

To the extent that the more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

It’s so feasible!

This kind of program not only wins awards, but also has high ratings, and can even serve as a good way to popularize history.

CCTV's flagship program.

"How did this kid come up with such an idea?"

Liu Gang was thinking with great excitement.

The more he watched Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi, the more he felt that this show was definitely the most outstanding of this year's Spring Festival Gala.

……

Soon, the group of singing and dancing programs that were being reviewed came to an end.

Li Jianshen let out a breath and walked out of Hall No. 1. He didn't know whether he could be selected; and Liu Gang didn't even bother to ask him how he was, and directly let Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi in.

He was really looking forward to seeing the shocked expressions on the faces of Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi when the director and his men saw them.

"..."

Singer Li Jian was a little dazed. He seemed to have seen something, but he doubted whether it was an illusion.

"Director, was the person who just came in also a singer?"

"No, they're going to perform a poetry recitation!"

"Poetry recitation?"

There is such a program in the Spring Festival Gala?!

At this time, Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi had already walked into Studio No. 1.

Those responsible for the review are of course CCTV's Director Jiao Li, Deputy Directors Li Xiaoming and Luo Ming, as well as several channel directors and directors.

They all lowered their heads or discussed among themselves at this time. When Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi came on the stage, the director Jiao Li subconsciously raised her head and heard a crashing sound in her ears.

Deputy Director Li Xiaoming leaned on the table and looked at Chen Jin and Zhu Yanmanzi on the stage without blinking: "What is your performance?"

"The Qinyuanchun Changsha in the Classics!"
