The theater is basic etiquette, quiet, upright, elegant, and maintain good manners. During the performance, never leave your seat; when you have to get up, you must maintain a bent, light, polite, and apologetic posture, not only to avoid interrupting the performance, but also to respect the audience.

Lan Li abides by such etiquette. Drama, opera, ballet, speech, concerts, etc., these art forms are named "elegant", not because the art itself is superior, but because of the strict and correct etiquette, the elegant art and the street Differentiate art.

The same is art. There is no distinction between the two, but they are suitable for different groups of people. Just as aristocratic masters participate in street art performances, they also need to take off their hats, loosen their shirts, roll up their sleeves, and have fun with the people; Conversely, when ordinary people attend high-level artistic occasions, they also need to dress up to attend and correct etiquette. Respect, this is mutual.

The shooting progress of "Edge of Tomorrow" was slightly faster than expected, and the shooting ended forty minutes earlier. Therefore, Lan Li did not delay his schedule and went straight to the theater to participate in the audition for "Les Miserables". Entering the theater space, the aura of Hollywood fades away. Here, he is an actor, a simple actor, even this version of "Les Miserables" is produced by Hollywood.

However, the development of the matter seemed to exceed Lan Li's expectations, first Nina Gold, and then Cameron McIntosh. Lan Li was also helpless.

"Mr. Mackintosh." Facing Cameron's greetings, Lan Li politely held the opponent's right hand and said in a low voice, then motioned to the space next to him, and responded with his eyes——

What should I do if I meet an acquaintance during a theater performance? He nodded to say hello, his eyes motioned, and then sat down quietly, waiting for a break between the scenes, and then met again to say hello.

Now, Lan Li did just that; Cameron also sat down beside Lan Li, with a small smile in his eyes, and whispered, "You came earlier than expected. Or, on time. Some more."

Lan Li laughed blankly and did not answer. He raised his hands and gestured to the stage. Unintentionally, they had interrupted the performance of the actors on the stage, either they calmed down so that the performance could continue, or they paused the audition and talked. This is the way of theater etiquette.

Cameron chuckled twice, "Hollywood lawlessness made me forget these rules." He raised his head and raised his voice, "Sorry, the audition continues." But the next second, Cameron noticed. , The crew members sitting in the front area, one or two of them turned their heads frequently and kept casting their eyes, which made Cameron laugh dumbstruck, "It seems that everyone is absent-minded. Then, take a five-minute break, and then the audition begins again. ."

After the announcement, Cameron turned to look at Lan Li, "Obviously, I am not the only one who has developed a strong curiosity."

The smile at the corner of Lan Li's mouth paused for a moment, then rose up and responded in a teasing manner, "So, have you found my third eye? I hope that the water in Hollywood has not caused me to mutate."

"Haha." Cameron chuckled twice. Such humor does make people feel relaxed, but it made Cameron look at Lan Li twice, "Do you know? You are even more than I thought." Young." Lan Li's eyebrows rose slightly, not knowing what to respond, Cameron closed his jaw with a smile, "Praise, this is praise."

"Les Miserables" has conducted three rounds of auditions, all in the form of audition videos. In order to create this classic masterpiece, the main creators of the crew are cautious and cautious, hoping to select the most suitable actors, and at the same time have the attributes of Hollywood fame.

For example, Hugh Jackman.

Ren Li sent two audition videos before and after, the first time was an excerpt from Epanny; the second time was an excerpt from Javert. This is an extremely weird choice, but it's not just a curiosity. On the contrary, the two videos show Lan Li's solid basic skills and abundant dramatic tension. It seems that in the past few years, Lan Li has never left behind the polishing of basic skills; and the excellent performances in Hollywood have also brought more inspiration and injected a fuller and more vivid soul into the entire performance.

One is a young woman who is deeply in love and cannot extricate herself; the other is a middle-aged man who insists on inner justice, but suffers under the wheels of the times.

With two completely different roles, Lan Li has demonstrated excellent control and interpretation, enough to make people ignore his age and even his gender. What's more commendable is that the two excerpts are not static interpretations of the original story, but incorporate Lan Li's own interpretation, which makes the audience can't help but chew.

As the creator of the classic drama version of "Les Miserables", Cameron naturally has a profound understanding of drama. He could perceive the differences in Ren Li’s performance, and reflexively wanted to provoke, refute, and deny, because Lan Li overturned the character image he had established in the past thirty years; but after he calmed down , But it derives more possibilities, but it makes Cameron interested.

For the first time, Cameron became curious. It’s not because Renly’s performance was too shocking. There are countless old actors in London’s West End and Hollywood. Renly still has not reached such a high level; it’s because he is looking forward to the audition performance of Renly on stage. The feeling in the video is always There is a layer of veil, so people can't make it clear. Only in the theater, can you make a judgment if you appreciate it up close.

Coupled with the magical rise of the past two years, Lan Li, who is only 22 years old, has gathered too many auras on his body-mysterious aura, genius aura, undefeated aura, all of which makes curiosity even more unstoppable. . It's not just Cameron, Nina Gold, Tom Hopper, etc., but most of the chief creators of the crew are like this.

After sitting down face-to-face at close range, Cameron's first thought was this: he was really too young. Thinking back to the performance on the video tape now, the surprise is even more turbulent.

"In this drama, which role are you auditioning for?" A simple greeting is just a few words. Cameron has been in the West End of London for a lifetime. Naturally, he knows the etiquette of the theater more clearly. There is no extra nonsense, directly. Just cut to the point.

Lan Li didn't joking again, and gave the answer neatly, "Jan-Ajean." Immediately, Lan Li could see Cameron's surprise under Cameron's eyes without the slightest concealment. It seemed to spread like ripples Today is the first time I heard it. This caused Lan Li’s eyebrows to raise slightly, “At the end of the second audition video, after the performance, I introduced myself first, and then explained the information that I wanted to challenge the role. Could it be that it was deleted when the video was edited later? Lost?"

Cameron paused slightly for two seconds, caught Lan Li's serious gaze, and then turned into a smile from surprise, and couldn't help but gently retract his jaw. Lan Li mentioned it, of course.

If it is a casual 22-year-old young man who expresses his wish to audition for Jean-Agen, everyone will treat it as a big joke, or even a performance of ignorance, which really makes people feel unhappy; but this The young man is Lanly Hall, the most topical new-generation actor in Hollywood in the past three years, and after he has dedicated two brilliant performances and proved his ability to control the role, what shall it be?

Crazy? Arrogant? arrogant? proud? Or...confident?

This is also the reason why Cameron came forward to meet with Lan Li the first time, and it is also the reason why the rest of the crew are very interested. Is Lan Li a genius or a lunatic?

Twenty-two years old, you can play Marius, you can play Enjolras, but... Jean-Ajean?

From impossible to possible, at least Lan Li broke the conventional concept with a surprise gesture. Cameron did not agree, but did not immediately veto it. "So, what bridge did you prepare today?"

"According to the requirements, I prepared Jean-Ajean's chants. However, I opened up all possibilities and made other preparations, hoping to break some of the shackles of prejudice." Lan Li's understatement, but with strong self-confidence.

Because he knew what his challenge meant.

In terms of makeup, whether it is drama or film, with modern makeup techniques, age is not a problem. This is especially true in drama. Thanks to the distance of the stage, the actors’ makeup is completely concealed under the lights~www.novelhall.com~ The audience can’t tell; but the problem is never makeup, but the power of performance, Jean-Agen It's not just a middle-aged man. His vicissitudes, hardships, and pain are the tragedies of the entire era, and the transformation of his character is the top priority of the entire drama.

Twenty-two years old means young, which means immature. Perhaps challenging Hamlet, this is the right choice; but Jean-Ajean, this is a crazy decision.

Therefore, he must be fully prepared to meet all possible potential challenges.

"You know this is a big, big yawn." Cameron didn't hide his doubts. The yawn was actually bragging. But then he saw Lan Li’s confident posture. There was no panic, no excuse, no eagerness. Instead, he was calm in his chest, which made Cameron chuckle slightly, "Then, you definitely don’t. Mind if I change the content of your audition on the spot?"

This is an interrogative sentence, but it is also an affirmative sentence.

Lan Li's heart started beating wildly. He knew that an absolute opportunity had come, and the curiosity mentality of two audition videos finally knocked on the door. Next, let's look at today's stage performance.

"Marius and Enjolras, you can choose one." Cameron lifted his chin and signaled the direction of the stage. "Perform the "Red and Black" section." Cameron said simply. After finishing the explanation, he turned his head to look at Lan Li, and was silent for a moment. It seemed that he was giving Lan Li the time to choose, but his playful eyes were extremely determined.

Lan Li knew that the right to choose was not in his own hands. Therefore, he chose to remain silent.

Sure enough, Cameron smiled and nodded, "Enjolras. You play Enjolras. The one on the stage is Marius."
