Xiangjiang old events [entertainment circle]

For the name Yuko Tanaka, perhaps most people are familiar with the role of the Empress Dowager Cixi played by her in her old age; but in the eyes of Su Yun, a TV drama child who loves "cooking" old dramas, the girl in "The Story of Ashin" The protagonist, the gentle and resolute young man Ashin, is the deepest film and television impression in her memory.

Knowing that Yuko Tanaka was born in a major, Akira Kurosawa signaled the staff to give her a short note about the plot.

It is likely that those who can leave traces in time will not be ordinary people. Only by analyzing such a short plot, Yuko Tanaka has almost stuck to the real core of the role of "Hatsumomo" she auditioned.

In the complete plot setting, Hatsumomo is the number one oiran in the geisha hall. Because she is the original heir candidate, she has already seen the prosperity at a young age.

What is needed is to look solemn and alienated, but reveal the wild and enchanting side that is born in the bones.

If there are not enough important people to compete with her, then life will be as comfortable as a frog in warm water, and gradually develop a fierce and paranoid character, forgetting the hospitality rules and professional ethics that a geisha should have.Even though Mrs. Wada, the old owner of the geisha hall, advised and even warned her many times, she still went her own way, thinking that now she is the economic pillar supporting the entire geisha hall, and she has enough capital to compete with Mrs. Wada.

So Mrs. Wada searched for a new heir for training.

Yuko Tanaka showed these qualities of Hatsumomo very well in the interpretation of the audition - obviously a pure, sweet and gentle appearance with slender eyebrows and fine eyes. After starting to perform, the temperament completely runs counter to the innocence of the appearance. Tilting his head slightly and tilting his chin lightly into a slight smile, it seemed as if a gorgeous and decadent romantic dream had been fulfilled between his brows and eyes.

This kind of self-confidence, when she looked down and saw something, seemed to add a bit of fear - Su Yun directly ended up standing by her side.

It also needs such a close distance to fully see her casual but secretly apprehensive glance, which is mixed with confidence and disbelief.

When a good actor is immersed in the whole scene, what he needs to express is this atmosphere and tension; as for those subtleties that were difficult to capture with the naked eye in the past, the camera lens will record all of them honestly and meticulously.

Although the acting skills still have the immaturity of some newcomers, and there are some places where they can't take care of their positions, but it is this contradictory point of being immature in line with the character's age but possessing extremely high talent, which is the most rare and precious.

Su Yun, who has always been on the sidelines, is willing to help out in the tool-man scene, even though she just stands by and takes a seat without saying a word, which is enough to prove her satisfaction with Yuko Tanaka.

Therefore, regarding the tension expressed between the two, Kurosawa nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand, and motioned for Su Yun to come back.

Sending away Hiroko Tanaka, who felt that this audition was promising, she couldn't hide her joy, and a group of people watched a dozen or so children who came to audition for the role of "Little Pumpkin", Chiyo's senior sister at the same time... The more they tried, the more disappointed they were.

It's not that their quality is too high, they just look good, but as long as Su Yun stops by, even if she deliberately restrains herself a lot, these children who came to the audition are still overwhelmed, and the perception suddenly changes from Pearls turned into fish eyes.

The role of Little Pumpkin when she grew up took advantage of Yuriko's depression, and was deliberately selected by Hatsumomo, who lost her heir qualification, as a puppet to compete with Yuriko for the heir; Once there is too much difference from Su Yun as the protagonist, then this role will be severely suppressed, and the original effect will not be achieved.

The reason for this gap is well known to Akira Kurosawa and others: a child as gifted as Su Yun is rare to come across, and she is no longer a newcomer, but a small winner who has experienced the baptism of the two markets.

Even though he is also from Japan, Akira Kurosawa understands that the characteristics of Japan people's bullying and fear of hard work have been deeply rooted in their subconscious mind.So no matter how restrained Su Yun's self-confident aura of a successful person is, once she gets close, she will still overwhelm someone who is not as qualified as her.

Just like the ancient country of China in the past, even if it temporarily fell to the altar, it still carries the innate dignity that cannot be violated.

Unless you meet a child who is already quite assertive at a young age like her, it is best to be a newcomer outside the circle who has never really realized Su Yun's horror, so that this kind of mentality, qualifications and other external appearances can be greatly offset The gap caused by the suppressed conditions.

"Is it gone?" Su Yun tried a round but didn't see the name she recommended appeared. She looked up and found that there was no one, so she couldn't help asking.

"I did have someone notify Kyushu, but I haven't received a reply yet." Iwasaki Mineko replied to Su Yun's words, and then greeted, "Everyone has worked hard today, I have asked someone to prepare a dinner, today Let's call it a day."

At the dinner, the Japanese teacher Iwasaki Mineko prepared for Su Yun and Zhuang Long also came, and arranged it directly in the hotel room next to them, so that they can study and exercise anytime, anywhere.

From then on, Su Yun and Zhuang Long had more things to do.

In a blink of an eye, it was the last day of the week-long large-scale audition. Su Yun looked at the name "Puchi Fazi" who was still marked with a vacancy on the form, and sighed helplessly.

In the corner of Little Pumpkin, two children who performed better than others in the audition are temporarily circled into the waiting list-this kind of rare hesitation, it can be seen that Akira Kurosawa is also looking forward to it, or it is planning something.

Maybe it was waiting for a belated "sudden force", maybe he planned to go through another round of training and selection after the crew was officially established, such as filming and pairing scenes, before finally deciding who will get the corner of the little pumpkin.

Su Yun and Zhuang Long came to Dongying on the 12th of this month. During the period of rest, adjustment and audition time, 8 days have passed in total.

While the production team has not yet been formally established and they are going to the fixed filming location in Ginzan Shinbata, Obanazawa City, Yamagata Prefecture, the two decided to return to Xiangjiang to celebrate New Year's Eve and the Lunar New Year after meeting with Gunpei Yokoi on the morning of the 21st tomorrow. , Come back here on the fourth day of the new year to continue studying.

The conversation was divided into two parts. In a large office in Kurume City, Fukuoka Prefecture, Pu Chizi, who had finally finished his work, let out a long sigh of relief, and was about to pack his things and go home from get off work.

"Hey, Pu Chi! Unexpectedly, your daughter Fazi's singing is really good!" Suddenly, a colleague called him cheerfully.

"What?" Pu Chizi looked puzzled.

"Last night, my daughter told me that when she grows up, she wants to become an idol singer like Sister Fazi—that's why I know that your family Fazi secretly went to that idol singer selection competition, and the ranking is quite good..." This colleague Mingmian was smiling, but that exaggerated tone of yin and yang was obviously ironic.

Most of these civil servants who work for the country do not want their children to enter the entertainment industry.

Apparently, Pu Chizi also had the same thoughts. After forcing a smile and perfunctory words with his colleagues, he hurried back home.

Before entering the door, he heard the sound of the eldest son Guangjiu and the younger daughter Fazi arguing.

After listening carefully, Pu Chizi immediately knew the reason for the quarrel between the two: some time ago, her daughter Fazi lied that she was going to Fukuoka to see Kawasaki Asashi's performance, so his wife Pu Chi was coaxed by her and took her there. Fukuoka.

When seeing his daughter from an audience in the audience to a contestant on the stage, Pu Chi and his son comforted himself: Anyway, I can't be selected, just to make my daughter die...

Unexpectedly, Fazi won the No.1 in one fell swoop in the qualifiers.

This time Pu Chi suddenly panicked: she is the one who brought her daughter to Fukuoka, so she is responsible, how should she explain this to her husband and son when she returns home?

So when the two returned home with the No.1 winning trophy, medal and bouquet, they originally planned to hide the things secretly and then tell their family the next day, but they happened to meet their eldest son Mitsuhisa who died because of the rain. Coming home from outdoor activities early...

Pu Chi Guangjiu, like his father, Pu Chi Zi, felt that the entertainment industry was dangerous, so he never supported Pu Chi Fazi's dream of singing. Suddenly, when he met his younger sister who was cheating her mother and tricking her into helping her, she would explode on the spot.

"This is not a joke, what are you thinking in your mind?" Knowing the cause and effect of the quarrel between the two, Pu Chizi couldn't help but said something with his usual objection.

Pu Chi Fazi flattened his mouth in grievance, and when he was about to say something, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

Since there were guests, they could only temporarily truce. The family tidied up a little, then hurried over and opened the door to welcome them into the house.

"Hi, my name is Imamaka, and I'm a supervisory assistant at a firm owned by Sony." The young girl who came in took out her business card and introduced herself, then straight to the point, she said, "Ms. Iwasaki, a well-known geisha in our country Recently, I am preparing a film about geisha culture with Director Kurosawa Akita, and the image of your child on the TV broadcast is very suitable for one of the roles..."

In addition to inviting Kamochi to make a film, Imaka also added that the firm thought she had a bright future in training, so they planned to use the film to make a name for themselves, and take advantage of the victory to train her as an idol singer.

This invitation was undoubtedly met with opposition from Pu Chizi and Pu Chi Guangjiu.

Seeing that the two men in the family were seriously opposed to his pursuit of dreams, Pu Chi Fazi hurriedly approached his mother who was forced to stand on the same side as her because of a mistake: "Mom!"

Two-on-two is like a tug-of-war within the family.

Since Imamaka had received instructions from his superiors, he naturally wouldn't give up easily, so he squatted at the door every day to visit.

This kind of persistence and earnestness has aroused the opposition of Pu Chizi and Pu Chi Guangjiu even more.

"The reason I work so hard is to hope that when you grow up, you can go to a good university and stay at home after graduation to learn traditional culture such as tea ceremony and flower arrangement, and then find someone who can continue to protect you for me." Marry a good man and be a gentle and gracious housewife..." Pu Chizi earnestly persuaded Pu Chi Fazi, who was biting his lower lip and showing dissatisfaction on his face.

Hearing repeated advice from his father and elder brother, Pu Chi Fazi couldn't help crying: "Father, I know you must be very disappointed in me..."

"Nothing, you have always been the pride of our family!" The other three quickly waved their hands.

Thinking that Puchi Fazi had listened to their advice, when the three of them were about to say something, Puchi Fazi spoke again: "Father, brother, what you are worried about is that even if I become an idol, I may not succeed, right?" ——However, there is such a rare opportunity in front of me, how can you say that I can give up?"

"I absolutely don't want to give up! Please let me go!" The person in charge of the family has always been Pu Chizi, so Pu Chi Fazi's tearful plea was obviously addressed to his father.

Pu Chizi, who had greater hope and greater disappointment, was immediately trembling with anger.

It's easy to lose your mind when you are in a hurry, so he suddenly raised his hand and slapped Puchi Fazi across the face, and shouted sharply: "If you want to be a so-called 'idol', then get out of this house immediately! "

Hearing the chaos inside Puchi's house outside, Imamaka hurriedly raised his hand and knocked on the door.

After a long time, the cries and chaotic voices inside gradually subsided.

Pu Chizi opened the door with a complicated expression and looked extremely tired. Seeing that the person who came was Jinzhong, who escalated his family quarrel, his lips moved a few times, and finally he took a step back and bowed: "Please...don't come again Disturb our house!"

"The entertainment industry is too complicated. Our family doesn't want to become an idol, as long as she is safe and happy..."

Jinzhong hurriedly returned a bow, squeezed the bag in his hand with an embarrassing expression, thought for a while, and finally took out a small piece of information and stuffed it into Pu Chizi's arms: "I'm sorry...but Mr. Pu Chi, Your daughter really has the potential to be an idol, please consider it!"

Pu Chizi looked at the figure running away in Jinzhong, he held the document loosely and tightly in his hands, and finally heaved a long sigh, and took the document back home under cover.
