The bard joins the entertainment industry

At noon, Chen Shuo and Yu Bo had a meal at Feng Li's house and continued to discuss the script and characters in the afternoon.

At the same time, Zhang Yimou, who had been discussing the new script with screenwriter Li Feng all morning, did not forget to discuss it during the meal.

When talking about the dance of water sleeve drumming, he suddenly asked Zhang Weiping: "By the way, Weiping, did you ask clearly what I asked you to ask yesterday?"

Zhang Weiping said: "I've already found it. I'll show it to you after dinner."

"Bring it to me now and take a look."

"Okay." Zhang Weiping put down his chopsticks helplessly, stood up and went out, and soon brought a stack of information.

"All the information you can find is here."

Zhang Yimou took it and flipped through it. Inside was some information about Liu Yifei.

While he was watching, Zhang Weiping said while eating: "Aside from being pretty and starring in Wang Yuyan, there is nothing special about this kid.

However, I accidentally found out that her mother seems to be something special. She was once a dancer at Jiangcheng Song and Dance Theater. In 1994, she played Mrs. Xiang in the musical "Chu Yun".

It won the Five One Project Award and the Wenhua Performance Award of the Ministry of Culture.

It seems that she was able to perform like yesterday because she was taught by her mother's words and deeds since she was a child. "

Zhang Yimou looked through it and found that apart from what Zhang Weiping said, there was really nothing worth paying attention to.

He looked at Liu Yifei's photo and frowned. The little girl was too young and her face was a bit too tender, which didn't quite meet his expectations.

Moreover, when he looked at the photo, he felt like something was wrong.

But thinking about the scene where the sleeves were flying yesterday, he didn't think much about it and said, "I'll contact him and see if he has time to meet in the afternoon or tomorrow."

"It's not difficult to call Dean Wang and ask her out." Zhang Weiping asked, twirling his chopsticks: "But, do you really plan to let her star in your new movie?

She is just a newcomer, has never acted in a movie, has never studied acting, and has no reputation.

If it were before, I would never say anything, but for this new drama, we also have to pursue box office. You can't support the box office with just one newcomer! "

"Let's make an appointment to take a look first." Zhang Yimou did not comment on his words. He just looked at Liu Yifei's photo and couldn't help but frown.

Sometimes it is easy for people to have preconceptions and be blinded by their own subjective thoughts.

He and Zhang Weiping didn't know who Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei were before.

The two people preconceivedly believed that the person who played the role of Luo Shen must be a girl, and the name Liu Yifei looked more like a girl than Chen Shuo.

Even though he felt something was wrong when he saw the photo now, he only thought it was because he wore too much makeup on the stage yesterday.

When Zhang Weiping called Wang Jinsong, he didn't mention anything about Luo Shen Lingbo Dance, but went straight to the topic and wanted him to help contact Liu Yifei and meet him.

Liu Yifei was confused when she heard the news and asked: "Why does Director Zhang Yimou want to see me?"

Wang Jinsong said: "Director Zhang is currently preparing for a new script. He said he had some ideas after seeing your performance and wanted to meet you."

"Then when will we meet?"

"If you have nothing to do now, I will accompany you there in the afternoon." This matter came to Wang Jinsong's head, and he had to help.

And as Liu Yifei's class teacher, not to mention that he was the one who brokered the matter, even if it was someone else's relationship, he should have accompanied Liu Yifei himself if he knew about it.

In order to give her a push so that she can act according to the situation, she can also help mediate if something goes wrong.

Everyone knows that although Zhang Yimou was born in Beijing Film Academy, he always prefers actors from Chinese opera.

If this really happened, it would be a matter of pride for him as the head teacher and for Beiying.

After the decision was made, Liu Xiaoli helped Liu Yifei prepare and joined Wang Jinsong to meet Zhang Yimou.

On the way, Wang Jinsong made a mental preset for Liu Yifei, telling her not to think too much and just behave normally.

It's great to be successful, but don't take it personally if it doesn't happen.

Although Liu Yifei didn't know why Zhang Yimou wanted to see her, she was in a good mood and simply thought she was going to meet this great director and university president.

After arriving at the place, Wang Jinsong introduced both parties, and Liu Yifei said hello graciously: "Hello, director Zhang, hello production Zhang."

After the two parties greeted each other and sat down, Zhang Weiping was still thinking of saying a few words, but Zhang Yimou got straight to the point and said to Liu Yifei: "The reason why I invited you here is to see the Luo Shen dance last night again. I wonder if you can perform it." one time?"

"Now?" Liu Yifei was a little surprised, "You didn't tell me in advance, and I didn't bring any clothes.

Moreover, this dance is performed by two people? "

"It doesn't matter. I have a water sleeve here. I want you to try and see if you can hit the drum with this water sleeve." Zhang Yimou took out a water sleeve that had been prepared and pointed to the drum that had been placed aside.

"I, I can't do it." Liu Yifei shook her head and said.

Then she thought that Zhang Yimou might not be looking for her, so she couldn't help but said: "Director Zhang, I think you may have misunderstood."

Wang Jinsong also understood what was going on and said quickly: "Director Zhang, you may have misunderstood.

Yesterday's Luoshen Lingbo Dance was performed by Liu Yifei and Chen Shuo. Liu Yifei played Cao Zhi, and Chen Shuo was the one who played the Luoshen. "

Zhang Yimou was shocked after hearing this. He finally remembered why he felt something was wrong after seeing Liu Yifei's photo. It turned out that the other person was not the person he was looking for at all.

Zhang Weiping was also stunned. He didn't expect that he had made a mistake, and hurriedly explained: "That's really embarrassing. I heard their names yesterday and thought Chen Shuo was a boy."

"Is Chen Shuo a boy?" Liu Yifei couldn't help but say.

"It's impossible..." Zhang Weiping paused as soon as he blurted out the words.

He turned to look at Wang Jinsong and asked him for confirmation.

Wang Jinsong nodded and said: "Chen Shuo is indeed a boy, and his performance yesterday was a cross-dressing."

Zhang Weiping was speechless for a moment, although he felt that the manner Chen Shuo performed yesterday looked like a woman.

But Liu Yifei and Chen Shuo are classmates, and Wang Jinsong is his teacher. They can't even recognize the gender of their classmates and students, right?

He turned to Zhang Yimou and wanted to ask him what to do about this matter.

This is a big mistake. I wanted to find a female protagonist. Not only did I get the wrong person, but I also wanted to find a male protagonist.

Zhang Yimou was also a little bit dumbfounded, but seeing Wang Jinsong and Liu Yifei looking at him, he explained: "This is really a... misunderstanding!

In my new script, I want to present a dance, and I want to show the effect of water sleeves dancing while beating drums.

After watching the Luo Shen dance yesterday, Chen... Chen Shuo's performance inspired me a lot, and his performance was very attractive, especially the two water sleeves dancing like two flying dragons.

That's when I wanted to try him out to see if he could do it.

I really didn’t expect that such a big misunderstanding would occur because of our mistakes. "
