[Live repo: The Peacock is a pendant!]
[Eighteen-year-old movie fans showed up uninvited, and "Peacock" is definitely the most amazing work in the first episode of "The Actors Are in Place"!]
Zhou Yiyang has another big move. The filming of "The Actors Are in Place" has finished and received rave reviews. Is this another hit?
[Tang Yue shines brightly, Su Yin faces harsh criticism, is there going to be a reshuffle in the popularity of Yue Shao's team?]
Countless netizens wished "Peacock" could be made into a feature film, but it's such a shame that we can only watch such a wonderful work next week.
After the recording of the program ended, various repos began to circulate on major social platforms.
What was mentioned most was not the quarrels among the actors or the witty remarks of the mentors, but the work itself - almost everyone was recommending the short film "Peacock" written and directed by Zhou Yiyang.
As China's first variety show focusing on actor competition, "The Actors Are in Place" has attracted countless attention before it was broadcast.
After seeing these repos, countless people are looking forward to how this "Peacock" will turn out.
Is it marketing or is it fact?
The only people who knew the answer were the audience present that day.
Let’s go back to one day ago.
Before going on stage, Tang Yue took a deep breath ceremoniously and looked back habitually.
She does this almost every time she steps on stage.
Because I can see my three good sisters.
Whenever she thought of them by her side, Tang Yue felt that no matter how difficult the road ahead was, she would not be afraid.
She thought others must think so too.
"You've never acted in a play, have you?" Chun Tao suddenly interrupted, bringing Tang Yue out of her self-admiration.
Tang Yue then looked back at Chun Tao, then replied somewhat reluctantly, "Yes, I haven't acted before, mainly because I don't have the time to go."
"It's normal not to go," Chuntao said with a happy smile, as if she was talking about someone else's business. "I don't have any money, and there aren't many audiences. If I could be like you guys, with all the parties I want and all the movies I want, I wouldn't go to perform in a play. It's not prestigious."
A male actor in the same group felt a little unhappy, but when he thought about Chuntao's fighting ability, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
He is a drama actor, but he really does it as a hobby.
"But there are advantages to acting in a play," Chun Tao explained to Tang Yue with a smile, "You won't be stage fright. When you get on stage later, you'll find that performing is different from singing and dancing. There will be many unexpected things in the former, and these unexpected things may come from you or from us actors. If you still think about the audience watching you, nine out of ten times you will be at a loss."
The other two male actors nodded, and Chuntao suddenly became a reliable senior.
"Then what should I do?" Tang Yue also felt that Chuntao's idea was very likely to happen.
"It's simple. Imagine the audience as a pile of pumpkins. Think about it, do you care what those pumpkins think?"
"Pfft." Tang Yue was amused by Chun Tao. "Will this really work?"
"Honestly," Chun Tao said seriously, "I don't know either. After all, I've never cared about the audience. But what were you thinking in the beginning? Did you choose our work because of Director Zhou?"
"Part of the reason is indeed related to Mr. Zhou." Tang Yue admitted readily: "Mr. Zhou is the director I am most familiar with among the four. I adapted to filming with him the fastest."
"Well," Chuntao nodded: "What's another reason?"
"I read the script, and I think this role is quite difficult." Tang Yue raised her head, her eyes revealing undisguised ambition. "I want to be the most dazzling person tonight."
"Although I'm definitely the most dazzling one tonight," Chun Tao said shamelessly, "I have to give you a thumbs up for your courage. You know, I like people like you who dare to act and speak out!"
At this time, the staff reminded: "The stage is set up, you can go on."
Zhou Yiyang sat up straight, he was quite nervous.
"Lice" has the original work as a foundation, so Zhou Yiyang hardly needs to think much.
Although Zhou Yiyang exchanged the script of "Peacock" from the system, what he exchanged for was a feature film.
How to adapt, which part to focus on, and how to divide the scenes all depend on Zhou Yiyang himself.
And tonight is not his solo show, the audience will definitely compare him with the other three directors.
Zhou Yiyang didn't want to lose to anyone, even his teacher.
"I heard from the staff that many people cried when you were filming that day," Chang Tiesheng asked curiously.
"How can it be so exaggerated?" Zhou Yiyang shook his head. "Although the filming was good, the live performance was completely different."
"But I'm quite looking forward to this story," Yu Lian said with a smile, "I'm looking forward to both original works. They're both fresh and new."
At this moment, the stage has been set up as a classroom.
It has a very retro feel, whether it is the pictures posted on the walls or the slogans on the blackboard.
This should be a story from the last century.
Many of the audience members came to see Yue Shao, and among the four directors, Zhou Yi Yang was the one they were most familiar with.
Naturally, I have high expectations for Zhou Yiyang's works.
However, when the audience heard the name of this work, they still had many questions.
"Why is it called 'Peacock'? It can't be some short film advocating for animal protection, right?"
"How is that possible? Didn't Pang Li say earlier that this was Tangtang's own choice of script? Do you think she'd be the type to make that kind of movie?"
"This classroom has the feel of 'Sunny'. Compared to 'Lice', this kind of campus theme is obviously more suitable for Director Zhou!"
"You know what, Zhou Yiyang is really good at making campus films. 'Flash Girl' made campus films popular, but the movies that followed suit weren't any good anymore."
Wang Xingrui felt that if she hadn't known the plot synopsis in advance, she would have thought it was a campus film.
When she thought of the plot, Wang Xingrui suddenly laughed with a sense of evil humor.
Those viewers who are planning to watch this campus movie will be tortured soon, right?
Lin Xuan'er stared at the screen in confusion. She was looking forward to this story, but there were only two groups left to perform.
Even Su Yin, the performance she thought she was responsible for, failed. Lin Xuan'er felt that she might be scolded to death by Zhou Yiyang.
The narration sounded, and it was a very mature woman's voice:
"What I am going to tell you is a story I heard, don't take it seriously.
Let's call the protagonist of this story Xiaohua. Xiaohua has a mother named Xiufen. She also has an older brother, Dapang, whose brain was damaged by a childhood illness. Finally, she has a younger brother named Feifei.
Today, it suddenly rained heavily, and Dapang went to bring an umbrella to Feifei..."
