Chapter 1085 Growth Line
Chapter 1085 Growth Line
Su Yunshu's voice was trembling, as if she was really in trouble. She lowered her head slightly, her hands nervously pinched the corners of her clothes, and her body shivered slightly, as if the harsh landlady was really standing in front of her.
"I really can't afford the rent this month. I promise I will make it up to you when I get my salary next month." Her tone was full of pleading.
Director Lin Yang's eyes widened slightly, revealing a look of surprise. He did not expect Su Yunshu to interpret the role so well. Several other judges also showed their approval and took notes seriously.
Su Yunshu continued to perform. When the "landlord auntie" refused and threatened to drive her away, tears welled up in her eyes, but she tried hard not to let the tears fall, biting her lips, with a hint of stubbornness and helplessness, "Auntie, please don't drive me away, I really have nowhere to go."
After the performance, Su Yunshu stood quietly there, his eyes gradually regaining confidence from timidity.
Lin Yang was the first to applaud, followed by the other judges. Assistant Director Zhao Xing smiled and applauded, "Teacher Su, with such great acting skills, the leading female role must belong to you."
Before Su Yunshu came in, they had already auditioned several other actresses to play the leading female role, but they were either too young to portray Sun Miao's growth story, or their acting skills were not up to par.
After observation, Lin Yang and Zhao Xing found that the distance between today's actors and the common people is getting farther and farther, and there is an insurmountable gap.
In their eyes, the poor seem to be equated with beggars, and this phenomenon is also reflected in today's film and television dramas.
If we observe these film and television works carefully, it is not difficult to find the problems existing in them.
Characters who are depicted as extremely poor, unable to even afford food, often live in luxurious homes.
This plot setting is obviously far from the real situation of the lower-class people in real life!
The poor people in the play can actually enjoy relatively expensive food like self-heating meals even when they are starving. This is undoubtedly a misunderstanding and distortion of the life of the lower class.
The emergence of this phenomenon reflects the actors' serious lack of understanding of the lives of the grassroots people.
Due to the lack of experience and observation of real life, they are unable to accurately portray the image of the lower class people, and it is even more difficult for them to express the complex emotions of the lower class people, such as tenacity, self-confidence and occasional inferiority.
Su Yunshu performed the feeling they wanted, and the unconfident but capable Sun Miao appeared before them.
Considering Su Yunshu's popularity, starring in this movie can only benefit them and not harm them. The presence of big names in the movie can quickly open up traffic and bring them more profits than ever before.
After signing the contract, Su Yunshu also got the complete script, so she could study it carefully before the crew started filming, sort out the character relationships and growth lines, as well as the subtle changes of Sun Miao in different periods.
Su Yunshu took the script home and dove into researching the role. She read the script over and over again and took dense notes.
In order to get closer to Sun Miao's life, she also deliberately experienced the life of the lower class for a few days, living in a crowded rental house, bargaining with the landlord, and working in a cheap restaurant.
Su Yunshu was still busy in the hotel when she received the director's call.
"Yunshu, there is an emergency. A portion of the film's investment has suddenly been withdrawn. Funds are tight, so some of the originally planned scenes and props may have to be reduced."
There was anxiety in Lin Yang's voice. Su Yunshu thought for a moment and said, "Director, I think we can turn this crisis into an opportunity. I can fully help you with the missing investment and make up the funds for you."
Having money in your pocket gives you the confidence to speak. Su Yunshu completely believes in the saying that money makes the world go round.
I discussed with Director Lin the specific investment amount and estimated box office. These had to be made out in a table first, and I couldn't just do it based on my own ideas.
Xia Bingbing is the best at this kind of thing. Su Yunshu called Xia Bingbing again and handed over the matter of cooperating with the crew and investing funds to Xia Bingbing.
Xia Bingbing came from Su Yunshu's place while working in the office. She really didn't expect that Su Yunshu, who was just doing the preliminary preparation work for a movie, could actually get an investment deal.
With the presence of professionals, the contract was completed in just a few days. Su Yunshu was only responsible for paying the money and dividing the profits in the end, and he didn't care about anything else.
