Chapter 105: Who am I?
When I was young, my family was poor. There were five brothers in my family and we couldn’t even afford porridge. Sometimes when I was hungry, I would ask my parents why we couldn’t even afford porridge, while the county magistrate could not only afford the most delicious food, but even the wine and meat left in the backyard would go bad?
My parents said that they were civil servants, they had no worries about food and clothing, and they could afford to keep many concubines.
I was a little confused. Why couldn't my family even have porridge in the year of the disaster, and their wine and meat would go bad? I had some hope for entering the palace, for the "court" where I could afford food and eat rotten wine and meat. I said.
Then can I become the county magistrate? My parents said, no, we are not qualified to touch the Four Books and Five Classics.
Is it because of family reasons?
yes.
But didn't the county magistrate always say that he came from a poor family and rose from obscurity, so why can't we do the same? I can read, I can read the Four Books and Five Classics, and in order to change my current living conditions, I can also make efforts that ordinary people cannot make. I can do it too.
However.
Dad only said one thing, and I only understood it when I grew up.
Poor family.
It’s also a door.
When I was ten years old, my parents said.
The family can no longer afford to support you, so we will decide who to let enter the palace.
I said.
If I enter the palace, can I eat porridge?
Not only can I afford porridge.
I can still afford to eat meat. I can still afford to eat meat.
My parents said firmly, "Okay." I was very happy because the family was almost unable to make ends meet. The harvest this year was poor. If we didn't find a way to make a living, I was afraid that I would starve to death, and my mother would starve to death.
So one person in the family must leave. Fortunately, my father has a way to enter the palace.
I worked hard and prayed for the opportunity to enter the palace.
Fortunately, in the end, I got this opportunity. I was so excited that I almost jumped up. I didn’t have to endure the cold and hunger anymore. Finally, I didn’t have to. But why, why did my brothers look at me like this? Why were their eyes full of pity?
Later, I came to the palace. I didn't expect that this magnificent place would be where I would stay in the future. They sent me to the cleansing room. The knife took a piece of flesh from my body. It hurt so much.
It really hurts, and the bleeding took a long time to stop. I saw someone die from this.
I cried.
I don't want to die.
I don't know how long it took before I came to my senses. Only then did I realize what brother's pity was, and I cried. But in front of me, were steamed buns. "Eat it," said the eunuch Wang An indifferently, looking down at me.
The steamed buns were very clean, without any dirt or dust at all, and were even cleaner than the steamed buns we only ate at home during years of good harvest and Chinese New Year.
I tore the steamed bun into my stomach in big mouthfuls.
I finally.
I can have a full meal.
"From now on, the palace will give you enough food, let you read the Four Books and Five Classics, let you learn the arts of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and will also teach you martial arts, if you have the talent."
"Remember, everything you eat, use and wear is given by the emperor."
It turns out that people like us have to pay such a price to have enough food, to learn the Four Books and Five Classics, and to play the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting. The things that the civil officials' wives can easily get, we need to be physically disabled in exchange for But I can't think so much anymore.
At least.
I can eat my fill.
So as not to starve to death in this heavy snow.
The next day, when I woke up in the morning, the sun had not yet risen.
This is how filming is, waking up early and staying up late are no big deal. Now that filming hasn't started yet and we are still in the script reading training, we still need to get up so early.
"I had a dream last night."
Li Yun murmured.
I found myself still lying on the table in the room, with scripts scattered on the floor beside me.
I didn't go back to bed last night. I just fell asleep while reading the script.
He fell into a lucid dream. He remembered everything in the dream. At this moment, the eunuch from the West Factory was not there, nor was the cold-blooded villain. Only the eunuch from the East Factory was there. At this moment, the eunuch turned his back to Li Yun and said calmly, "You have kept us waiting for a long time. There are quite a few..."
"Is that so? I'm sorry."
"snort"
At this time, Li Yun looked at the eunuch in front of him, paused and said.
"What's your name?"
"Cao Zhengchun, the supervisor of the East Factory."
At this time, the script reading was almost coming to an end, and Li Yun's presence was becoming less and less. It was really because Liu Songren and Guo Jinan's performance in the reading was simply crazy.
Even Deng Yancheng felt a little emotional.
"Take on the next role of Cheng Shifei and give him more support."
Here, the director also makes fine adjustments to the weights based on everyone's performance during the script reading. Gui Hai Yidao's role should be at the bottom, and Cheng Shifei should be at the top.
There are also differences in the weight of the protagonists. There is no way around it, after all, there are differences in the sense of immersion and expressiveness between the actors.
"Where is our Cao Zhengchun? We need to notify him to go for martial arts training." At this time, Xu Xiaodong, the assistant director who has not had a very high presence in the crew, came out.
After all, this is also a martial arts drama, and action is absolutely indispensable.
Even if special effects are developed, they cannot be used entirely. This is the bottom line of martial arts themes.
"Well, his presence has been a little low recently. I heard that he has some martial arts skills?"
"You have to get familiar with the moves. Cao Zhengchun should be considered one of the top three masters in the entire "Number One Under Heaven". His martial arts performance must be demonstrated."
Excluding Gu Santong, the first is Tiedan Shenhou, the second is Cheng Shifei who has opened the Vajra Indestructible Power, and the third should be Governor Cao who has mastered the Tiangang Boy's Skill.
We also talked about Governor Cao. Xu Xiaodong was also concerned about the script reading. He has been training the actors in Duan Tianya's group during this period.
"How should I put it? Our Governor Cao is a bit of a loner. He always likes to be alone. His sense of existence is too low. I don't know much about it."
"A loner type. Isn't this similar to Liang Chaowei and Jin Chengwu's personalities? Oh, and there's also Zheng Yijian."
These guys are all old otakus in the Hong Kong entertainment industry and are well-known.
"Not really. I always feel like... Forget it. I don't know how to put it. In short, it's just filming. Other people's personalities are none of our business. As long as we can film the show as required, it's fine." Deng Yancheng also said.
"Please call Xiao Li for me."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6-9!
"Yes."
At this time, Deng Yancheng also sent a message to Li Yun, saying that it was Cao Zhengchun's turn to design the action performance.
Many times, the action scenes can be performed by a stunt double, but if you can do it yourself, try to do it yourself. When Li Yun came here.
Deng Yancheng looked at Li Yun in a daze. "What's wrong, Director Deng? Is there something on my face?"
Li Yundu walked over and smiled slightly.
"Nothing. Go and plan the moves with Xu Xiaodong."
"OK."
At this time, looking at Li Yun's back.
Deng Yancheng always felt that there was something different about Li Yun, but he couldn't really put his finger on what it was.
"Here, Mr. Li."
At this time, Xu Xiaodong was stunned. When he saw Li Yun, he subconsciously didn't call out "Little Li", but blurted out "Mr. Li". "Hehe, we have a set of kung fu here. I know you have a kung fu foundation, but some things are more new to see. We have our own kung fu style here."
Xu Xiaodong also said seriously at this time.
The skill Cao Zhengchun is proficient in is called Tiangang Tongzi Gong, which is extremely strong and masculine, so in terms of action design, it is necessary to have big openings and closings while highlighting the "masculine" feeling.
But he cannot lose the aura of Mr. Cao Zhengchun.
This is the beauty of action design.
Just like Cheng Shilong, his martial arts style can immediately remind people of Uncle Long, Zhen Zidan, and Li Lianjie. They all have their own martial arts style that fits the role.
Martial arts is also a form of acting, and it also serves the role and the script itself.
Li Yun listened very carefully.
Nodded.
"I understand, Director Xu"
"Well, you'd better really understand. I will give you some training on your own. This is not a special class, but the action design of your character does require some ideas. But you also have your own advantages, and your action foundation is still good."
At this time, Xu Xiaodong wanted to sort out the movements and performance forms of the 'Tiangang Tongzi Kung Fu' that he had thought of to Li Yun.
Li Yun said instead.
"Director Xu, I have some ideas of my own"
"Hmm?" Xu Xiaodong looked at Li Yun and sighed in his heart. This was already a standard plot.
Just like when filming, actors always give the director their opinions on the roles. This behavior is actually quite common. However, in the end, the actors will always be convinced by the professionalism of the director team.
This time should be the same.
Or rather, it has to be this way.
Xu Xiaodong also didn't think that Li Yun was ignorant of the immensity of the world. After all, he was a young mainland actor and probably didn't know the history of the development of action movies in Hong Kong films and TV series, which was a real foundation of action that was created with real swords and guns.
If he really has the level of appreciation for martial arts, he would probably know the difference after he sees Xu Xiaodong perform a set himself.
"Okay, then let me see what you think." At this time, Xu Xiaodong smiled and crossed his arms, looking very interested.
Then.
A set of punches flew over.
Xu Xiaodong had no time to dodge.
Just when the fist stopped at the tip of his nose, it suddenly stopped, then turned over, the fist turned into a palm, and the palm turned into fingers . Xu Xiaodong was stunned.
Tiangang Boy's Kung Fu is the most powerful and masculine boy's kung fu.
But the person who was using him at this moment was a eunuch.
The legs, feet and fists are powerful and masculine.
But when Li Yun used it, he was able to combine this kung fu with femininity.
It was clearly extremely masculine. It was clearly extremely powerful. But Li Yun used this set of masculine Kung Fu to create a different feeling.
A feeling that belongs only to me, only to Cao Zhengchun.
