MTL - I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad-Chapter 426 424. Euthanasia

   Chapter 426 424. Euthanasia

   "Mr. Gao, does this actor look familiar to you?"

  Hearing what Xu Xin said, Gao Ming looked at the information he handed over, and immediately recognized it:

   "He, who is that in "My Leader, My Regiment"..."

  As soon as Gao Ming opened his mouth, Liang Bingning also looked over, and continued:

   "The lame Meng is annoying... and the squad leader in "Soldier Assault"... called... called..."

   "History and present."

  The conversation fell to Xu Xin again.

   "I have a pretty good impression of him. Although his appearance is not particularly outstanding, his two roles, Shi Jin and Meng An, still impress me."

  Following his words, all the actors who came here to recruit today turned their attention to the information they had.

  In terms of age, Xu Xin is very young.

  24-year-old young man, not even graduated from college yet.

  But when it comes to "energy", his words really hold a lot of weight in the factory.

  Especially when Qi Lei said, "Well, I just remembered when Director Xu said it. It turned out that he acted... this actor is really good".

  Some things are tantamount to a certainty.

  To put it bluntly, the batch of actors who came to apply for employment today are all high or low...not right, it should be said that they all belong to the level of "nowhere to go to heaven".

   Their acting skills may be very good, but either because they are not supported by big companies, or because they don’t know any contacts, they are all actors who are struggling at the bottom.

  I applied for the job, hoping to join the factory and get more opportunities.

   Although there is no limit to the number of places, joining a person is nothing more than an extra basic salary. But not everyone can come in.

  The momentum in the factory is very good now, countless people want to become the second Liang Bingning, or to gain a firm foothold in the circle with the help of the factory.

  So for these actors, the factory is naturally qualified to be picky.

   But being picky is picky, Director Xu and Mr. Qi have both spoken.

  Then the actor named Zhang Yi basically has no problems.

   Nothing to do with character, nothing to do with character.

   Director Xu likes it.

   Mr. Qi agrees.

  He can come in.

   However, no one said it clearly.

  After knowing it in his heart, he looked at the others separately.

  After the time to start applying for the job arrived, everyone saw that Xu Xin hadn't said anything to "protect" anyone, so Gao Huang nodded:

   "Let's get started...Let Zhang Yi come first."

   Soon, the door was pushed open.

   Walking straight and standing straight, Zhang Yi appeared in front of everyone.

  He was born in the military, and he couldn't find any faults in his physical condition.

  As the team leader, after Zhang Yi introduced himself, Gao Huang nodded:

   "Well, you are welcome... Next to it are the titles of the recitation part. After choosing one, you are ready to start at any time."

  The actor recruitment content in the factory is actually no different from other units.

  One is reading aloud and reading aloud.

   Investigate the basic conditions of actors.

  The four words "both voice and emotion" are simple to say, but it may be possible to make people not embarrassed, and express the emotions in the work clearly, which is really difficult without training.

  The second is the performance of film and television clips.

   There are two stages. One is a fixed proposition, the factory will prepare some excerpts of classic works, and let the actors perform after preparing.

  The second is to give a scene and let the actors play it by themselves.

  In the first recitation, Zhang Yi’s performance was quite satisfactory, because the work he chose was golf...not right...Gorky...nor...golf driver...anyway, it was the work of the bearded Russian writer-"Haiyan".

  Eloquent and full of emotion.

   After reading aloud, Gao Huang looked at the audition selections in front of him and picked out a page.

  "Red Sorghum", an excerpt of Jiu'er's wedding, in which Yu Zhan'ao molested the bride Jiu'er while carrying the sedan chair.

   The lines are right there.

  When Zhang Yi was making preparations, Gao Huang did not urge him, but just said:

   “Perform when you’re ready.”

  Zhang Yi nodded, and began to recite his lines silently in front of everyone.

  The house is very quiet.

   His preparation speed is not slow.

   At most three or four minutes, I put down the paper.

  Looking around, he picked up a folding stool and carried it on his shoulders.

  Xu Xin keenly noticed his movements when he lifted the sedan chair.

  Normal people don’t talk about imitation performances, but when they lift something, they definitely need to let the pole or shoulder pole on their shoulders press their shoulders to walk.

   This is a safe way to go.

  However, in "Red Sorghum", when Yu Zhanao, the bearer of the sedan chair, greets the bride, he is talking to Jiu'er in the sedan chair while lifting the sedan chair.

   Moreover, Xu Xin talked with the old man about the drama "Red Sorghum".

  In the old days, bearers were particular about the steps they took to welcome their relatives.

  The step of welcoming relatives is called "stepping on the street".

  When you reach the road, you have to "play wild" and make the bride in the sedan chair panic.

   This also has a moral.

  The girl went out and completely became an outsider.

  It takes time to change your mind, and as a bride, even if you wear a red hijab and others can’t see your expression, if you still look timid when you enter the door of your husband’s house, that’s not going to happen.

  Therefore, the bearer ran wild, and the bride was "bumped" in the sedan chair, so that she could get out of that sad state of mind in time.

  And this kind of bumpy movement requires the joint efforts of four or eight bearers.

  When it came to the wild stage, everyone exerted strength on their shoulders at different times, making the sedan chair bouncing up and down.

   At this time, the bar and the shoulders cannot fit tightly, but they are lifted and lowered so that they are bumped and pressed down.

  Does Zhang Yi understand?

  He understands.

   When he started to step, the movement was very smooth at first, and he said:

   "If you regret it, there is still time! My brothers will carry you back!"

  Here, his body is stable, with a powerful and strong body.

  But after waiting for a while, he suddenly said:

   "Your sister doesn't speak? You can't talk! Can't talk... Can't pee?"

  Then, the chair began to "fly up and down" on the shoulders, and a somewhat dissolute pace similar to twisting yangko, followed by his singing:

   "The guest hasn't left~"

   "The table is not over~"

   "I looked around and couldn't find the bridegroom..."

  He has watched "Red Sorghum", so he has a perfect grasp of this song.

   Singing while stepping on the street.

   While singing, squinting and laughing.

  That kind of smile is quite interesting, and there are many emotions in it.

  Don't say that everyone knew that Director Xu "liked" him before.

   Even if Xu Xin doesn't say anything, just watching this performance, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Um…"

  Amidst the singing, Xu Xin's nasal sound of approval resounded.

   Sure enough, I read it right.

   is a good actor.

and…

  He seemed to think of something suddenly, and his brows frowned all of a sudden.

  …

   Zhang Yi's performance is over.

   Gao Huang nodded:

   "Well, the performance is very good."

  He is a national first-class actor, with veteran qualifications and veteran actors.

   There is nothing wrong with acting skills. No matter what kind of character it is, as long as the age is right, it will be easy to handle.

  So being able to say this from his mouth means that there is really nothing wrong with the play.

   After boasting, he looked at the free play clip in front of him:

   "Next, let me play a..."

   "Teacher Gao."

  Suddenly, Xu Xin spoke.

   Gao Huang turned his head:

"What's wrong?"

   "I have a snippet that I want him to try."

  Gao Ming was taken aback.

  Zhang Yi was also taken aback.

   Immediately afterwards, Gao Huang nodded:

   "Okay. Tell him about it."

"Um."

  Xu Xin responded and looked at Zhang Yi:

   "This scene is like this... You are a fugitive from a murder case and have been on the run for many years. During these years, you have always suffered from inner torment."

  When he spoke, Zhang Yi nodded and listened.

   "Fugitive, umm."

   "Then you were brought to justice, and the sentence was execution. Note, it was not a shooting, but a drug injection. From the beginning of the drug injection to the end of more than a minute, let's perform this paragraph."

   "From injection to end?"

   "Yes, there are no lines."

"…good."

  Zhang Yi nodded slightly, and then said:

"give me sometime."

"Um."

  Xu Xin did not urge, and repeated Gao Huang's words:

   "You're ready to start anytime."

  Zhang Yi didn't speak, but started blinking, thinking, and pacing back and forth.

  As to why Xu Xin gave such a clip, although everyone had doubts in their hearts, no one asked.

  In the entire audition hall, apart from the sound of breathing, you could hear needle dropping.

   I don't know how long it has been.

  Zhang Yi suddenly stood still and nodded:

"It's like this... When I was in the army, we had training in this area. Because sometimes when some serious criminals are selected for execution, soldiers are required to be on duty. I have heard people say it but haven't seen it with my own eyes. But the specific procedure is known.

  This injection-style death is more humane. It is three drugs, one to paralyze the loss of consciousness, one to cause muscle paralysis and respiratory failure, and at the same time, a drug that stimulates the heart to accelerate blood circulation throughout the body..."

   "Just act as you imagined."

  Hearing what Xu Xin said, Zhang Yi nodded, and then walked directly to the wall.

   "Here is the fixed bed. ... Please prepare that plastic bag for me."

   After he finished speaking, he pointed to a plastic bag containing documents, and stuck his whole body to the wall.

  Then rolled up the sleeve of the left arm, revealing the crook of the left arm.

  Take a deep breath...

   "Hiss~~~hoo."

  Close your eyes and clenched your left fist.

   Then when he opened his eyes, his eyes began to wander.

   There is no fear, but an uneasiness.

  He kept looking to the left, as if someone was giving him a needle.

   Look to the left, look to the right, look to the front...

   Blink.

  At the same time, her mouth began to open and close, and after the hesitant expression was displayed, Liang Bingning suddenly felt a layer of goosebumps on her skin.

   I feel a little uncomfortable.

   Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of heavy breathing.

   "Hoo... Hoo... Hoo..."

  His fist clenched suddenly, and his body straightened instantly. After a pause for about a second, his left fist relaxed.

   It seems that the needle has been pierced.

   Then, his breathing began to increase again.

  In the case of no exercise, this kind of big mouth breathing can easily make people dizzy.

  The oxygen content of the body increases and the carbon dioxide pressure decreases.

   My mind starts to feel dizzy.

   This condition is called respiratory alkalosis.

  The processing method increases the carbon dioxide content in the body.

   Use a sealed bag to keep exhaling and inhaling, or wear a mask to increase the concentration of carbon dioxide.

   And Zhang Yi adopted this method.

  Even before that, he had already figured out the first aid.

   Immediately afterwards, his lips began to turn white.

  That is the protective layer formed by the dehydration of the lips and skin that breathes rapidly.

   Breathing becomes heavier and faster.

   Until this "euthanasia" seemed to have reached the "moment before" of a certain process.

  He suddenly smiled.

   "Ha~"

   Laughing, his body began to tremble.

  The instinctive fear made his body start to wobble.

   But while swaying, he was always in a state of fear conveyed by laughter, the rattling of teeth, and the erratic emotions in his eyes.

  These three different states and expressions form a cycle.

  The more scared you are, the more you laugh.

  The more you laugh, the stronger the inexplicable "sense of solidity".

   And this sense of solidity will quickly dissipate because of the pendulum.

   During the cycle of one, one, and another, his eyes would look to his left from time to time.

Then…

   "Hoah!!...Hoo...Hoo..."

   It seemed that something was happening. After he took a big breath, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.

  After the smile was gone, the eyes were no longer erratic, replaced by a blank stare.

   And in this stare, his expression was like a muscle twitch, trying to smile, but it was fleeting.

  His lips are getting whiter, but his eyes are getting more and more lax.

  That smile also changed from a flash to a muscle twitch.

   gradually became smaller and weaker, and finally disappeared without a trace.

   When the muscles stopped twitching, his eyes also completely froze.

  But the mouth is still opening and closing in vain, as if trying to breathe.

  That is the instinct of survival.

   This situation continued for another stage, after about ten seconds...

   Finally, nothing moves.

   His body was stiff and his eyes froze.

   Pale lips.

   "..."

   "..."

   "..."

  No one speaks.

  Everyone is waiting for Xu Xin to shout Ka.

   And Xu Xin also shouted according to what they thought:

   "Okay, that's it!"

   At the same time, there was a touch of surprise and admiration in his eyes.

  This man...

  He just wanted to comment, but Zhang Yi was still frozen.

  Xu Xin was taken aback...

   "Okay, Mr. Zhang..."

  But Zhang Yi hasn't moved yet.

   Xu Xin stood up instinctively, thinking that something was wrong with his body.

   But at this moment, Zhang Yi raised his right hand and quickly shook his finger at him.

  Xu Xin was taken aback...

   Then I saw his lips start to squirm again.

  But this time it is not opening the mouth or talking, but like spitting bubbles, one piece one close, one piece one close...

   Like a fish out of water for too long.

   Struggling in vain, wanting to live.

  However... there is no way to recover.

at last…

   "My show is over, thank you."

  His expression change is complete.

   Pursing his lower lip, he stood up straight with some trembling.

   "..."

   "..."

   "..."

  It was only then that everyone realized that he hadn't completed the entire performance just now, so he was frozen.

   And recalling the last lips squirming like bubbling...

  tsk...

  Among the emotions of the crowd, Xu Xin, who did not sit down after standing up, applauded:

   "Crack, crack, crack...a wonderful performance!"

  He took the lead, followed by the applause of others, gathering and flowing in the audition hall.

  …

"Teacher Zhang."

   "Don't dare, Director Xu just call my name."

"It's okay... It's like this. There is a book called "Sunspot", and I am working on adapting it. You can buy it and read it... The protagonist Xin Xiaofeng in it is the character you just played. Take a good look and look forward to meeting you follow-up cooperation."

   "Uh...huh?"

  Zhang Yi was stunned.

   Some don't understand why I came to audition for the actors of Xiying Studio...why I got a role all of a sudden.

and…

  The protagonist? main character?

   "Electric...movies?"

   He asked with some uncertainty.

  Since he was in the army until now, he has only acted in one work, and that is the digital film directed by Yu Hanqiu of the movie channel - "Double Line", a story about the emotional life of college students who return to the mountain village to work.

  He defined himself very clearly.

  Actors like myself who don’t have outstanding facial features...it’s really difficult to get out in the film industry.

   What's more, he doesn't have an agency.

  Although I yearn for movies, I also think that after I have some fame, I might be able to act in movies...

  However, acting in movies and movie protagonists...

   Is that a concept?

I?

  Movie protagonist?

   I have a **** box office appeal.

  Who can ask me to play the leading role?

  Which director is crazy? …will the investor be willing?

  He is very aware of these realities.

   And it can be treated with a normal heart very early on.

But…

  The big director with a box office of 500 million in front of me... After giving me an audition clip, I suddenly told him that I just played the protagonist in a book that is being adapted from the script...?

  Movie protagonist? ? ? ?

  ? ? ? ? ?

  Is today... April Fool's Day?

  Use me as the protagonist of the movie?

   Seeing his reaction, Xu Xin smiled and nodded:

   "That's right, the movie... your performance moved me. The role of Xin Xiaofeng... you are very suitable. Brother Qi, what do you think?"

  Qi Lei naturally knows about "Sunspot".

  And the screenwriter in the factory was notified by Xu Xin in advance, and after he gave the main line of the story, he directly entered the stage of script creation.

  Qi Lei himself has read that story.

   After watching the performance of the actor in front of him, Qi Lei didn't pick out any faults.

  So, after being asked by Xu Xin at this moment, he had two thoughts in his mind.

   "Fucking fit."

   "I found a treasure in the factory!"

  So, he smiled and nodded:

"Very suitable."

   "Well, let's put it this way. The book "Sunspot" should go back and read more, but there is no need to be in such a hurry. As for the story...maybe there will be no action until next year. Just prepare in advance. How about it?"

   "..."

  Looking at the young director who was much younger than him, Zhang Yi was completely dumbfounded.

  The painting style of Xiying Studio...

  Is it so weird?

but…

  For some reason, as an actor, he couldn't control the smile on his face.

   "Thank you Director Xu!"

   "Sure, Xiying Studio welcomes you to join."

   "!"

  The moment he heard this... Zhang Yi, who had never thought that he could directly apply for the job, was even more confused.

  Double...Double happiness?

  …

   "A good actor."

  Hearing Gao Huang's words, he turned off the screen of the phone that had just saved the call, and Xu Xin nodded:

   "Well. Know how to put it away, know how to put it away. This is the rarest thing."

"Hahaha…"

  Xu Xin's words made Qi Lei suddenly laugh.

   "...what's wrong? What's wrong with my words?"

   "That's not true."

  Qi Lei smiled and shook his head:

   "I was just thinking...the actress discovered by Director Zhang, everyone calls her Mou Girl. Director Xu, what should you call this?"

"Well…"

  Xu Xin blinked and made a joke:

   "Xu Niulang?"

   "Hahahahaha..."

  Everyone in the room, including Liang Bingning, laughed out loud.

   Laughter, Liang Bingning asked:

   "Is there a role for me in that movie?"

   "This one really doesn't exist."

  Xu Xin shook his head:

   "There is a little girl called Tail, and Iguxia is a college student who just graduated."

   "Okay you! Call me old in different ways!"

   "Hahahahahahaha..."

  …

  Actually, today's audition was a little unfair to the next actors.

  How do you say that idiom... pearls and jade come first.

  With Zhang Yizhuyu in front, the performances of other actors were compared in this way, and the gap came out immediately.

  In the end, after picking and choosing, I couldn't choose a few actors who were suitable.

   But there is an actress, which surprised everyone.

  It's called Ren Suxi.

  The appearance is not very good, even the face is a bit long.

  But the role of "Jiuer" has received a lot of praise.

   Belongs to the kind that cares more

   She was a little immature, but compared to other people's acting skills that were still in the exaggerated stage, her performance was the only one that made Xu Xin very eye-catching.

  Finally, all the auditions were over, everyone picked and picked, and rushed to the decision of acting first, art first, and finally she and Zhang Yi passed the selection.

   Brutal.

   But there is no way.

   Xiying Film Studio may not be able to bow to capital in this lifetime.

   That is the backbone left by the older generation of Xiying filmmakers.

   Everyone couldn't bend down.

  If they could really bend over, they wouldn't have become that virtue before Xu Xin arrived.

   Everyone survived the bad times, and we must not forget our roots when the good times are good.

  Two people are just two people.

  Actors who can enter the West Film Studio may have different needs at different stages. For example, Liang Bingning was the product of "compromise" under the circumstances at that time.

   But even if it was a compromise, she still won a golden rooster actress for the West Film Studio.

   And now that everything in the factory is booming, there is no reason to compromise.

  Acting is everything.

  …

  6:30 p.m.

  Xi'an Airport.

   "This is beef noodles???"

  Xu Xin picked up the 75 bowl and said it was beef noodles, noodles with less meat than Mo Lanla, with a speechless expression on his face.

   "Then eat mine?"

  Liang Bingning pushed over the tomato and egg set meal she ordered.

   "Farewell. Make do with it..."

  Among the group of people taking pictures and paying attention, Xu Xin shook his head, added a lot of vinegar and chili to the noodles, and muttered:

   "Why don't we go directly to the VIP room? Just have a quick bite on the plane...Why do you have to come here to eat? With so many people's attention, I feel uncomfortable eating this meal."

   "It's called hype."

   Scooping the scrambled eggs with tomatoes into the rice bowl, Liang Bingning said with a smile:

   "You don't need it, I still need it."

   "Yes, yes, just fry it."

  Xu Xin mixed the noodle bowl:

   "It's the 75 yuan that cost me a little bit."

   "How come the more you live, the more stingy you are?"

  Liang Bingning couldn't laugh or cry:

   "This is my invitation to you, I don't even feel sorry for you, why do you feel sorry for?"

   "My monthly salary is only over 7,000!"

  Xu Xin complained.

   "Yo yo yo, why, did Mimi deduct your pocket money?"

"hey-hey…"

  Xu Xin smiled and began to eat ramen.

  The two of them are not afraid of any scandal.

  If it is in Yanjing, it may be a little more taboo. But the two of them appeared in Xi'an at the same time. If a reporter could contact Lace News... then Xu Xin would really be convinced.

  One is the deputy director of the dubbed film, and the other is the deputy director of the cast.

  What else can you do in Xi’an?

   Definitely going back to Xiying Studio.

  So I'm not afraid of any news.

   While Xu Xin was taking two mouthfuls of noodles, the phone rang suddenly.

  Take it out and see that it is Xu Miao.

   "Hey, what's the matter?"

"where?"

   "Xi'an, prepare to return to Yanjing."

   "Oh~"

  Xu Miao responded:

"Just to tell you, the plane has arrived. Wow, there are two planes. One for our father and one for us. I will call you later. Whether it is the route or the itinerary, where are you going? It’s fine to make this call in an hour.”

   "Come down? So fast?"

   "Ang, I've been waiting for a year, isn't it fast?"

   "Okay, I got it."

   "Well, it's hung up."

   "Wait, let's go to Shanghai tomorrow."

   "Call me later, I'll make an appointment and go directly. By the way, I'll ask you how to get through the VIP channel in the future, and let someone arrange it together."

   "Wow."

   Beep.

  The phone hangs up.

  Liang Bingning asked casually:

   "Who is it?"

   "My brother, call and say the plane is back."

   "Oh oh...huh?"

  Liang Bingning was taken aback suddenly:

   "Get something back?"

   "Private jets. Two. One for my dad and one for the two of us."

   "..."

  Liang Bingning's mouth twitched...

  Why did you say this, like buying two electric bicycles?

  Casually just two...

  But as soon as she thought about Mr. Xu's financial resources...she was relieved.

  For others, the hundreds of millions of aircraft costs and various routes, maintenance, etc., may be an astronomical sum every year.

   But in general, the cost of the plane is not mentioned.

   As far as the maintenance for this year is concerned, it is estimated that it cannot match the coal mine production of that day.

   Not to mention the real estate company.

  Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional:

   "Tsk tsk tsk..."

   And hearing this movement... Xu Xin looked up at her.

   Opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to ask something.

  But in the end, he didn’t ask the question.

   He could only lower his head and continue snoring.

   Soon, the two finished eating under the camera of a group of people, paid the bill and left.

  The plane took off on time and rushed into the clouds.
