Chapter 1582: I am a big star? (This title seems to be good too)
I really didn’t expect that I could actually dig up a treasure.
Staring at the camera in front of him, Director Gotanda was trembling all over excitedly.
At first I set my sights on this little girl because of her special appearance and her calm quality on the set. After all, ordinary children will look noisy and boring when shooting on the set. But this child was very calm and didn''t care about other people''s gaze. That''s not because of his dull personality, but because he really doesn''t care.
It is precisely because of this that director Gotanda decided to let the other party play a small role in his next movie.
Because it is a low-cost horror film, then naturally all the favorable factors that don’t have to be used. Not to mention anything else, in the opinion of director Gotanta, the appearance of this little ghost alone is enough to enhance the horror atmosphere of this movie a lot. Therefore, as long as you don’t cry or make a fuss, and then take a few shots according to the plan, that’s enough.
However, unexpectedly, the other party actually gave him a big surprise!
What kind of acting is this!
The look that doesn’t treat others as human beings, but looks like a bug, even if I look at it through the camera, I feel trembling. It feels like standing alone in front of a beast. That atmosphere is really... great!
“…………It’s so terrible.”
Compared with director Gotanda, Arima Kana looked at Duanmu Huai even more surprised at this moment. When she first met with the other party, she was just attracted by Duanmu Huai''s appearance, which was different from ordinary people, and she didn''t think the other party would have any acting skills, but now... Arima Kana doesn''t think so at all.
This is no longer a question of whether the acting is not a matter of acting!
The so-called acting is a way to express a character through expressions, eyes and actions, but Duanmu Huai is not acting at all, but momentum!
This is like an actor who plays a gangster, the difference between it and a real gangster!
The latter is not necessary! Because he was!
Of course, Ma Gana didn''t know about this. She only knew that the other party''s acting skills were natural, and it seemed like she was not acting!
Well, in fact, that was not really performed.
After realizing this, Director Gotanda decisively began to modify the script!
Originally, in the script, these two children were set up as the mastermind behind the village. According to the plot, these two children were sacrificed by the village a long time ago, and then became evil spirits, and then torture and kill the people in the village. Later, the heroine came to this village, experienced many supernatural events, and was finally killed in despair - well, this is also a routine in Japanese horror movies. Basically, it is difficult for the protagonist to escape like the protagonist in Hollywood, nor will he cut up with a peach wood sword like the protagonist in Chinese zombie movies. Most Japanese horror movies focus on describing the desperate and powerless struggle of mortals in front of ghosts, and finally die.
Originally, according to the script, the two children showed their true bodies, then turned into terrifying ghosts, and then the heroine was killed.
This process requires CG, after all, ordinary children cannot play the terrifying sense of pressure like ghosts.
But after watching Duanmu Huai''s performance, the director decided to change this section!
Of course, this is not just because of the feeling that Duanmu Huai performed, but more because CG costs money, but human performance does not cost money!
Low-cost movies mean to bow to the cost!
Since Duanmuhuai can perform the oppressive feeling of the final boss, isn’t spending money a sucker?
So basically all the parts that needed CG were cut off, and instead the lenses of Duanmu Akane and Arima Kana increased significantly. As a talented director, you must learn to spend money on the edge, especially for such low-cost movies, you can naturally save as much as you can.
As a low-cost movie, it didn''t take much time to shoot, and Duanmu Huai and the others also went to the premiere after that.
How to say...
"Wow, sister, look, mom is so awesome! So awesome!"
Very noisy.
Looking at the excited sister beside her, Duanmu Huai was speechless, although he couldn''t understand this feeling...
"Yo, how about it? Little Devil? How do you feel after watching the movie you starred in?"
After the performance, Director Wupantian also came to say hello to Duanmu Huai, and Duanmu Huai was thinking for a moment.
"I don''t feel anything special, but if I want to say... I don''t seem to be good at acting."
After all, their true relationship cannot be exposed, so they have always said that the two are the senior relationships of the firm.
"Oh? Is that?"
"That''s right, because in this movie, Sister Love is a bit too popular. I remember hearing from people that first-class actors should learn to cooperate with their roles, but at the end of this movie, I can''t tell who the protagonist is."
Duanmu Huai also honestly expressed his opinion. In his opinion, his cheap mother, Ai Hoshino, has a strong desire to express himself. The same is true in previous TV series. He obviously filmed a lot of shots, but in the end, only an insignificant cutscene was given on the TV. My sister was furious about this, but Duanmu Huai felt that it was normal.
After all, the protagonist of that TV series is not Ai Hoshino, but she has no intention of restraint at all. If she puts all the shots in, she doesn''t know who the protagonist is.
Just like this movie, it is obviously just a supporting role, but the limelight is even greater than the protagonist. If it weren''t for Duanmu Huai''s final boss who suppressed the limelight of love, maybe this movie would have become a one-man show by Hoshino Ai, then I wouldn''t know if this was a horror movie.
Is this what a supporting role should do?
"You are right."
Director Gotanta smiled and leaned against the wall.
"Indeed, if it is those first-class directors, this situation cannot be tolerated. After all, the director''s goal is to film the story in his mind. If a character does not know how to stand firm in his position and just simply shows his presence, he will be quickly defeated. But then he is a first-class director after all... I am still far from it, and..."
As he spoke, Director Wupantian looked at Duanmu Huai.
"...Isn''t your acting good? I think after this movie is released, many people will come to you, come on."
"Actually, I don''t like the entertainment industry so much..."
Duanmu Huai sighed silently. After all, he knew what kind of virtues are in the entertainment industry, but the child star is okay. If he was older, he would have respected Bumin.
Having said that, this shouldn’t be changed directly to “Rebirth: I Am a Big Star”, Duanmu Huai has no intention of developing in this direction.
In terms of the result, this movie received a lot of praise. Director Gotanda won the Best Director of a certain movie award for this movie, while Duanmu Ai and Arima Kana were also nominated for the Best Supporting Actress. Although Ai Hoshino was not nominated for the award, her popularity in the movie also attracted a lot of attention.
After that, Ai Hoshino and Duanmu Huai began to get busy.
Hoshino Ai''s development direction is mainly entertainment programs, focusing on idol routes, while Duanmu Huai is more about making movies. After all, there are not many child stars in the film industry who can perform good shows, and fewer people can perform like Duanmu Huai. Some scripts are even unable to film because they can’t find a suitable child star.
This is also normal. After all, not everyone is reborn and traveling through time - oh, no, there are also guys who have reborn and traveling through time but feel that they are childish than physical age.
Because of this, Duanmu Huai became popular in the film industry very quickly, and even starred in several movies. Of course, most of them are horror movies, which are considered a fixed drama. Duanmu Huai didn''t care about this. He didn''t plan to make a living by acting for the rest of his life. The reason why he wanted to shoot these movies was simply to make money and save start-up funds.
After all, Duanmu Huai knows very well that things like the entertainment industry, to put it bluntly, rely on money. As long as you have enough money, you are your grandfather. Without money, no matter how famous the actor is, he is just a grandson.
Of course, this circle is also extremely small.
For example……
"I am... Arima Gana, please give me some advice."
“Ganai?”
Looking at the girl in front of me, Duanmu Huai was a little surprised. He and Arima Kana have not met for two years. This time, on the set of the movie, Duanmu Huai plays the protagonist, while Arima Kana plays one of...a group of children.
It is a supporting role among supporting roles.
To be honest, this did surprise Duanmu Huai. He still remembered that when he first saw Arima Gana, the other party was still very arrogant, but now she looked down and completely depressed.
"Long time no see, are you okay?"
"Ha? What are you talking about?"
Hearing Duanmu Huai’s inquiry, Arima Kanai immediately raised his head and looked proud.
"Of course I''m fine. Isn''t this going to film with you again? I''m just trying to figure out this role, this role."
"That''s how... you suddenly became so honest, which really scared me."
"Hehe, I scared you? It seems that my acting skills have improved."
"That''s right, but I still think you are so cute that noisy."
Duanmu Huai didn''t tell any lies. After all, a child is a little lively and cute. Like Bambi riding a jellyfish rushing around the court all day. Everyone was not annoyed, but they felt that it added some vitality to the court.
“Yes, is that…”
Hearing Duanmu Huai''s answer, Arima Gana lowered her head embarrassedly. Just when Duanmu Huai was about to ask about her recent situation, the staff happened to ask him to film, so he could only say hello to Arima Ganai and turn around and leave.
When Duanmu Huai''s filming was over and he went to find Arima Kana, he found that the other party had already finished filming and left - after all, it was just a supporting role among supporting roles. Out of curiosity, Duanmu Huai also inquired about Arima Gana''s recent situation with the staff.
"Is Ma Ganai? Ah, that genius child star. Her life has been hard recently. I heard that her company plans to let her get involved in the singing industry recently. She has released several albums, but she all died suddenly. Moreover, she hasn''t received a good role for a long time. How can I say... This is the industry, I''m going against the current, if I don''t advance, I will retreat... Sorry, this is not a topic to talk to children."
That''s why I don''t like the entertainment industry. If you are a good actor, just be an actor. If you have nothing to do, why do you have a three-star star? People really do everything they can to make money.
By the way, Duanmu Huai is very determined, only acting, and never participates in variety shows, and occasionally only participates in interviews. Anyway, he has no requirement for popularity or something, and the box office and reputation of the movies starring Duanmu Huai are also good, which is enough.
Duanmu Huai was too lazy to care about other things.
But filming is also a very tiring thing.
You can retire after working for a few more years.
Early that morning, Duanmuhuai also walked towards home with her tired body and carried her suitcase. Now that my body is growing up, a director has also proposed to him to broaden his acting career. Although it is good to keep shooting horror movies, it is like this. If you want to make more money through multiple paths, it is ultimately like Arima Kana. It is still not enough to act simply, and you also want to take other ways to make money by relying on popularity.
Some directors also mentioned the plan to shoot youth idol romance films when they grew up, but Duanmu Huai was speechless about this.
He doesn''t want to act in a romantic movie with men, and he just thinks he has goose bumps all over his body.
But if he evolved into a perverted murderer, he would be happy to kill all the young and handsome guys.
All the handsome guys are going to die.
“Huh…huh?”
Just as Duanmuhuai walked out of the elevator, he saw a man in a hoodie standing there holding a bouquet of flowers in his hands.
Then who?
Just as Duanmu Huai was about to walk over to ask, the door opened, and then Ai Hoshino walked out. The next moment, Duanmu Huai saw the man in the hood take out a knife and stab at Ai Hoshino!
Seeing this scene, Duanmu Huai was also shocked, and then grabbed the suitcase and threw it directly at the other party!
“Bang!”
The small suitcase hit the man in the hood and threw it to the ground. At the same time, Ai Hoshino on the other side also fell down.
“It’s okay!”
At this moment, Duanmu Huai also hurriedly ran up and saw a dagger inserted into Ai Hoshino''s lower abdomen, while she collapsed to the ground, looking around blankly. Seeing Duanmu Huai, Ai Hoshino could barely smile.
"Ah, you''re back..."
"Well, anyway, don''t move first, I''ll call an ambulance..."
Duanmu Huai looked at Ai Hoshino''s injuries and breathed a sigh of relief. At least the knife was not pulled out, nor did he lose a lot of blood. Of course, first aid is needed as soon as possible. So he quickly called the police and ambulance with his cell phone, then came to Ai Hoshino and looked at the man outside who was knocked out by his suitcase.
"Who is that guy?"
It’s not this cheap dad, right?
"Ryosuke-kun...is my fan...I have seen him many times at the handshake meeting..."
Ai Hoshino looked at the man and whispered.
"It seems that he thought I deceived him, so he came to take revenge..."
“………………”
How to say, sooner or later this day? Hearing this, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes silently.
He thought that if he continued to do this, he would be stabbed to death sooner or later... Of course, it would be useless to say this now.
"I... I am just a hopeless and hopeless person. Although I said I love everyone on the stage, in fact, even if I asked me to love others, I don''t know what to do..."
Speaking of this, Hoshino Ai looked at Duanmu Huai and smiled slightly.
"Actually, I think you are very similar to me."
"Yeah……?"
"Yes, what exactly is love? I think... you may not have thought about it... Although you have always played the role of sister very well, I can see that because I am the same as you..."
“…………”
Listening to Ai Hoshino’s words, Duanmu Huai was silent. As Ai Hoshino said, Duanmu Huai had no idea about love.
"Do you want to go over and love others?"
"………No."
Duanmu Huai shook his head.
“I’m not very good at this.”
"yes………"
Hearing Duanmu Huai’s answer, Ai Hoshino smiled slightly.
"I watched Ruby dance in kindergarten, it was really great. If it went well, maybe one day, the mother and daughter could perform on the same stage... That''s what I think..."
“…………”
Duanmu Huai looked at Ai Hoshino and remained silent.
"But you are more like me... It''s really difficult to love others. Even if I''m telling a lie, I''m still singing the song that tells love with someone with the desire to fall in love with someone. And then I pray... this lie will come true one day."
As he spoke, Ai Hoshino closed his eyes while closing his eyes.
"Today''s Dome Performance seems to be over. I''m sorry to everyone. Moreover, the filming schedule of the movie has been initially decided... Please apologize to the director..."
“Dingdong…”
At this moment, the elevator ringing rang, and then noisy footsteps came from behind. It was not until this time that Duanmu Huai stood up and sighed silently.
After that, Ai Hoshino was taken to the hospital, and the man was also arrested by the police. Fortunately, her sister was sleeping at the time and did not notice any abnormalities. After she woke up, Duanmu Huai just told her sister Ai Hoshino that she was injured and was treated in the hospital.
As for the result...
"Life is saved."
The doctor who walked out of the operating room looked serious and solemn. When the doctor spoke, the president, Duanmu Huai and Ruby were relieved.
But it''s not over.
"However, because of the serious injury, it is hard to say when she will wake up. Maybe she will be awake tomorrow, or maybe... she will never wake up for the rest of her life."
“How could it be———!”
Hearing this, my sister''s face turned pale, and the president''s face also changed drastically.
"Really? Doctor? Is there no better way?"
"As for the moment, all we can do is wait."
