As long as you are in the industry, no matter the director, actor or screenwriter, as long as you are a graduate of Chinese Opera, you are one of your own.
I don’t dare to say that I’m honest, but I’m definitely more trustworthy than outsiders. I’m not saying that all graduates of China Theater are decent people, but under the rules of the entire factional game, no one dares to break it.
Dare to trick people from your own faction?
No one in the world can tolerate you!
At least that's the case on the surface. To be fair, I have been able to get to where I am today thanks to a lot of credit from China Drama, especially in the first two years of my debut, when I protected and completed my original accumulation, both in terms of popularity and works.
Su Ze is very grateful for the Chinese drama!
Of course, this is also the reason why Zhang Yongxin, who has never met before, asked Lin Hongtong to set up a matchmaking relationship. It is all a favor, but we are all just people in the scene. Try your tone before speaking, so as to avoid embarrassment after rejection.
"How is it?" Lin Hongtong raised his second cup of tea, this time it was the best Biluochun, which made him feel at ease when beating the local tyrants.
"It depends on what you always say." Su Ze said with a smile: "Whenever you ask, you must answer!"
"Hmph, you kid, are you still playing tricks on me?" Lin Hongtong laughed and scolded, "You obviously like me, right?"
Su Ze laughed heartily, touched the script and exclaimed: "What a great book!"
"As long as you say this." Lin Hongtong finished his tea, stood up and said, "I'll let Zhang Yongxin talk to you, and I won't get involved."
"By the way, Longjing and Biluochun give me a few kilograms to beat my teeth as a sacrifice!"
Su Ze: "..."
Your boss is also the vice-president. Is it okay to be so blatant?
Lin Hongtong was very busy and left without any nonsense. Considering the relationship between the two of them, there was no need to be polite. After seeing off Lao Lin, Su Ze called Kong Xue, handed over the script and said: "Zhang Yongxin wants me to act in his new script. CCTV One
It will be broadcast on prime time.”
Kong Xue's eyes lit up and she said excitedly: "Yang Yi?"
If he had known this, Su Ze said angrily: "Can you please pay attention to the script?"
"It's definitely not bad to have Lao Lin come to the door in person." Kong Xue said with a smile: "Zhang Yongxin is a director who has filmed the League of Military Advisors."
Su Ze's character is so clear that if he was dissatisfied, he would not let himself read the script. If he did, he would take the role.
"A historical drama." Kong Xue opened the character list and said in surprise: "You play Li Dazhao?"
"Well, that's interesting." Su Ze said, "The ages of the characters range from twenty to thirty-eight, and their appearance is fine with makeup. The main thing is that they have a lot of lines."
Kong Xuefei browsed through it quickly and couldn't help but frown. He originally thought that the thick stack contained all the scripts, but it turned out to be just Li Dazhao's?
The lines alone are fifty or sixty pages long!
Su Ze had his own considerations for taking on this work. Not to mention the role of Li Dazhao, the subject matter alone is novel.
The Love of Mountains and Seas is a theme of poverty alleviation. It is said to be a period drama, but it is basically a modern background, but the environment is just that the young and old are surrounded by the poor.
Battle in Changsha is an Anti-Japanese War drama. Strictly speaking, it is not a period drama, let alone a historical drama. Gu Qingming is handsome enough, but in terms of acting skills, he is the easiest character to control.
Just show your true colors.
But the era of awakening is different. Just by reading the script, you can see that the producer is ambitious. This is to turn historical figures into popular figures!
Back then, the words that the teacher had casually scratched across the textbooks and what the teacher said were the key points to be tested were just a few words. I’m afraid it would be hard to empathize with those test points that were memorized by rote.
I truly understand that a group of people once fought hard for their lifelong ideals and beliefs, even sacrificing their most precious lives for it.
The purpose of this play is simple: to give audiences, especially young audiences, the opportunity to truly get closer to that era and those people!
What was China like more than a hundred years ago?
Deaths from hunger spread all over the land, and the people had no means of survival.
Sell your children cheaply to make a living, and exchange your children for food just to live!
The words "Benevolence, Righteousness and Morality" were written crookedly on each page. I couldn't sleep anyway, so I read carefully for half the night, and then I saw between the words that the two words "eat people" were written all over the book.
——Lu Xun, Diary of a Madman
There are several scenes in the script: A fellow villager in Luxun named Yang Kaiming was a man of culture and graduated from a normal school, but in the end he went crazy.
Yang Kaiming is a kind-hearted person. When he was a teacher, he often helped a widow in his hometown. After a long time, he was always criticized by others.
One time, he was too tired and fell asleep on the table at the widow's house. When the tribe found out, the widow was punished by the tribe leader in accordance with the tribe's rules and was given to Shen Tang alive.
In rural areas, even if your son dies, you still need to find a girl in her prime to marry. How to do this?
Let the girl marry a rooster wearing a red flower!
Then stay a widow for the rest of your life!
On the street, a group of poor people surrounded the revolutionary who was beheaded in public, eagerly looking forward to the blood shed by his beheading.
The officials collected money, and the common people dipped their blood. Those revolutionaries who threw their heads and shed their blood and died heroically were just the introduction of life-saving medicine to the numb people.
Blood buns!
Compared with Gu Qingming who fought in Changsha, the characters in the Age of Awakening are not generals and warriors who bravely kill the enemy, but a group of ordinary people at the bottom of society, silently influencing the working people with their words and deeds.
No matter when and where, it was the stage for their speeches. It was the little efforts of this group of people that gradually enlightened the people's wisdom and laid the foundation for the vigorous May Fourth Movement.
"I hope all Chinese youth will get rid of the air conditioning and just move up, without having to listen to the words of those who give up on themselves."
"Those who can do things do things, and those who can make sounds make sounds. If there is heat, there will be light. Just like a firefly, it can also shine a little in the dark without waiting for the torch."
Kong Xue couldn't help but read out a line, and was moved in her heart. She said to Su Ze: "This role must be played!"
"What a great platform, CCTV has a set of prime time slots!"
"Yu Hewei plays Cheng Duxiu, and you play Li Dazhao!"
"To commemorate the victory of the May Fourth Movement, isn't this what the best young role models should do!"
Su Ze was completely speechless, sister, can we stop being so arrogant?
Compared with Cheng Duxiu, the character of Li Dazhao is fuller and more down-to-earth. Especially the relationship with his wife moved Su Ze very much.
His wife was five or six years older than him, and they had been married since they were children. The old-fashioned marriage also created a long and touching love.
In the heavy rain in Beijing, my wife and I exchanged heart-to-heart conversations. During the years when I was running for revolution, my wife silently supported me unconditionally.
Li Dazhao has a line: I am worthy of the world, but I can only be sorry for you.
Zhao Renlan is illiterate. The happiest thing is to receive letters from her husband back to her hometown from various places. Then she goes to the village elder to read the letters, and she reads them over and over again under the lamp at night.
My biggest wish is to learn to write so that when I receive a letter, I can also reply to my husband with my own hand.
He promised his wife that on the day when a desk can be set up quietly on campus and the sound of reading can be heard, he would teach her to write and wait for her to write a love letter to him.
However, not long after, Li Dazhao was killed by a reactionary warlord at the age of 38. His wife Zhao Renlan only recognized the name Li Dazhao throughout her life.
