Li Mubai was already prepared to face Li An's doubts.
"The problem of age can be solved with makeup, and acting skills can also be covered up. I think the most important thing is the understanding of the characters and the way they are expressed.”
Hearing Li Mubai's words, Li An was a little surprised.
Old Moe asked excitedly.
"You filmed a scene yesterday and were arrested at the police station, right?”
Li Mubai was speechless. Could it be that this old man also liked to watch the trending searches?
In fact, Li Mubai had misunderstood. Recently, Old Moe had been looking for actors for his new movie and had looked for all his friends in the industry.
Cao Baoping, the director of " Scorching Sun," was also a fifth-generation director like him.
After yesterday's scene, Cao Baoping had already treated Li Mubai like a pearl. He was showing off everywhere, saying that he had discovered a peerless genius.
Wasn't this exactly what Old Moe wanted?
Li Mubai nodded honestly.
"I saw your performance. It was very relaxed. You're a good actor. However, Mr. Yi was different from the murderer this time!”
After hearing Old Moe's words, Li Mubai took out a stack of paper from his bag without saying anything.
"This is a biography of Mr. Yi that I wrote. Please take a look.”
The biography was placed on the table. Li An and Old Moe looked at the stack of papers in front of them and were a little stunned.
"This is a summary of Mr. Yi's life after I read the original novel and combined it with the background of the era. It was about 7,000 words, which should be more comprehensive.”
Li An gulped. This was more than comprehensive. It was simply too much. His current script was only 6,000 words.
A short biography of a character was even more voluminous than the script?
"Cough! Mr. Li is well prepared, but I wonder if this will help the performance?”
"Of course. Every look and every line of the character in the script must be logical and have a starting point. The background and growth of a character was the starting point.”
When it came to acting skills, Li Mubai started to talk non-stop.
"Why does Mr. Yi have such a personality? Why does he like the female lead and why does he abuse her? All of this came from his heart. This biography was actually cutting open his heart.”
Li Mubai wasn't afraid at all when facing two famous directors. Instead, he spoke with confidence.
However, Li Mubai's serious tone made the two directors not dare to underestimate him.
"I heard that Liang Jiahui from Xiangdao would use this method to assist in his performance, but no one in the mainland has done so before." I also graduated from the Film Academy. Shouldn't you be studying methods?”
"No matter what faction it is, it's all for the sake of acting well and then retreating unscathed. This Cesium Ring was very heavy. If he used the experiential and methodical methods, he would have to completely immerse himself in the traitor's heart and would suffer internal injuries.”
"Shouldn't you be willing to do anything in order to play a good role? It's not a good habit for you to be overcautious!”
"If you give your heart and soul to a character, then the actor's acting path will be narrow. There are always characters that you can't get into, just like murderers. Do you have to get close to a murderer's heart just to act?”
Li Mubai was neither servile nor overbearing. Beside him, Li An became more and more shocked.
"Very good. Mr. Li is very dedicated, but in the end, you have to perform in the audition.”
After saying that, Li An handed Li Mubai a piece of paper, a script.
Li Mubai took it and saw that it was Mister Yi's one-man show.
This should be the end of the script. The female protagonist, Wang Jiazhi, was beaten to death in order to save Mr. Yi, and Mr. Yi sat alone in Wang Jiazhi's room to reminisce about her.
There were no lines, only actions and eyes.
Li Mubai thought for less than half a minute before raising his hand."Alright, I'm ready."
Li An and Old Moe were both surprised. So fast? Wasn't this a little too hasty?
However, Li An still waved his hand, and the cameraman beside him turned on the camera.
The audition footage had to be recorded so that the director could watch it repeatedly.
Li Mubai let out a breath and walked to the door.
Li An and Old Moe stared at his back.
Li Mubai turned around and the scene began.
Li Mubai was seen taking small steps, and his entire aura immediately took a 180-degree turn from before.
First, it was cold! Li Mubai's eyes were cold, like a wolf looking for prey.
There was no expression on his face, but he was definitely not paralyzed.
The corners of his eyes were slightly lowered, and his lips were pursed. His footsteps were meticulous, but his upper body did not move at all when he walked.
Li An and Old Moe instantly leaned back. This person was very dangerous.
Li Mubai slowly walked to the chair and sat down.
He placed his right hand on his knee and rubbed it with his left hand.
In an instant, Li Mubai's eyes turned red.
His pursed lips relaxed, and the corners of his mouth turned down slightly.
His nose opened slightly, and a wave of sadness spread out.
However, Li Mubai did not make any big movements. Only his right hand was slightly trembling.
The atmosphere in Norda's living room was taken away by Li Mubai's sorrow.
It was only a short 40 seconds, but the expressions of the two directors had already changed several times.
Pa, pa, pa! Old Moe suddenly clapped.
"Good actor, the rhythm is too good."
Old Moe's applause interrupted Li Mubai's emotions. He collected his emotions and immediately returned to normal.
Li An was very surprised. Li Mubai, whose eyes were still red, had returned to normal in a second. This was too amazing.
Li An was not a newcomer. He had eaten and seen before, but he had never met a powerful young man like Li Mubai before.
"Mr. Li, how do you control your emotions?" he asked curiously.”
Li Mubai smiled." Controlling a muscle in the body is a requirement of Grotowski's performance system. He pressed his tongue against his upper jaw and slowly exhaled. His eyes would turn red. Then, he could control the size of the corners of his mouth, eyes, and nose to express different emotions.”
"These were all designed by Mr. Li?”Li An praised.
"That's right. Mister Yi is a cautious person, so his footsteps are very light, and his upper body basically doesn't move. He did everything very gently, which was a sign of his high vigilance.”
"And he's left-handed, so he used his left hand to touch the sheets. He wanted to maintain his dignity, so he would never show a sad expression in front of outsiders.”
"But when he is alone, he will unconsciously reveal his emotions. When her eyes turned red and when her hands started to shake, it was all in the established order.”
