The National Girl is Three and a Half Years Old - Chapter 121
“I have finished reading the script, and I have watched it many times!”
Gu Suisui’s personality is relatively straightforward, and he can’t hide things in his heart. Generally, he thinks about what to say and does what he does, and he does nothing if he doesn’t.
Seeing this little girl’s face that I was great and I was so cute, the two assistant directors sitting next to her couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
The two of them are not young anymore, and their grandchildren are almost Gu Suisui’s age. Seeing this weird little girl in front of me is like seeing my own child.
And Lu Jianhui was also satisfied with what Gu Suisui said after reading the script many times, with a little smile on his face, and said: “Then the script reading meeting will start after a while, and you can do it yourself. Did you finish reading the script alone?”
Lu Jianhui saw that the child was very serious, and asked casually, without expecting an affirmative answer from her.
Of course, for those actors who have grown up, proficiency in the lines is only a basic requirement. If an actor can’t even speak his part of his lines smoothly, can he still be considered a qualified actor?
But children at Gu Suisui’s age are different. They don’t recognize many characters, so they can read the script very slowly, not to mention having them read the lines aloud. Even directors like Lu Jianhui, who are very demanding, have to lower their demands on some young actors, as long as they can remember the lines of that scene when filming. As for this screenplay seminar, they The staff has been arranged in advance to help.
Gu Suisui raised his little head, and said with a little pride: “Of course I can read the script by myself. My mother wants to come and help me, but I didn’t even agree!”
The question asked by the director’s grandfather is too pediatric.
She is an older child now, and she cannot be bothered by small things like reading a script.
Hearing this unexpected answer, Lu Jianhui suddenly became interested, put down the bowl of soy juice, and said, “Then we are looking forward to your performance in Sui Sui.”
Reading the lines fluently and smoothly is just the minimum requirement for an actor to read the script this time. The key is to read emotionally, but for a child over three years old, the requirements do not have to be so strict.

There is a long table in the conference room. There are two rows of cards on the table. The small cards have the names of everyone present today.
As the director of the entire crew, Lu Jianhui is naturally at the forefront. Gu Suisui’s position is behind him, and in the middle of the front.
Today is the first script reading meeting, discussing the scripts of the first ten episodes. The actors present are also the main character role players in the first ten episodes.
There are about fifty or sixty people in the crew of “Small Alley”, together with the producers, screenwriters, and art directors, which can almost fill this large conference room.
“Leave Suisui’s position next to me. I want to see how she does her homework.” Lu Jianhui has always liked serious and hard-working actors. Of course he couldn’t help seeing their little actors so hard. I want to check it out myself.
The staff on the side showed hesitation when he heard what he said, and said, “But Director Lu, the two positions next to you are the leading actors.” They are also the two actors with the most dramas. The cafes in the circle are about the same size. Isn’t it right for either of them to remove it?
Lu Jianhui waved his hand and said nonchalantly: “They are all from the same crew, who are not the leading actors or not, every actor in this drama of ours is the leading role.”
“Small Alley Family” mainly tells the story of four families living in the hutongkou compound. Everyone in the four families is the soul of the TV series, so they just participated in a script reading meeting. What’s the point? If the leading role is not the leading role, and the children who are not in the kindergarten are playing games, whoever gets ahead will get rewards.
Lu Jianhui thought for a while, then said, “Sui Sui Sui will not move her. I will just sit next to her. Also, put away the signs on the table, and let them be here when others arrive. Find a place to sit in the conference room.”
In the past, when Lu Jianhui was in the crew, apart from filming, he was always approachable at other times. He ate and drank with the actors of the crew, did not engage in any specialization, and did not have any directorial airs. Everyone often talked about the script, even the actors and him He will not be angry if he has different opinions on the understanding of the role.
Lu Jianhui used to open script reading sessions in a casual manner, just to find a larger house and a larger yard next to the crew, and move a stool, so that everyone can sit together. The overall atmosphere of the script reading meeting should be relaxed. You can choose the position you want. You can sit wherever you are used to sitting, and sit wherever you are comfortable.
“Okay, Director Lu, I’ll go and put away all the cards on the table.” The staff was stunned for a while, and finally followed Director Lu’s request.
It’s just that she felt that even if she was so ordered, no actors would dare to sit in the middle of the conference room. Director Lu has been filming TV series for decades, and his reputation in the circle is very high. Even if he adheres to the principle of respecting the older generations, some celebrities and queens dare not take this position in the presence of his elderly.
Gu Suisui looked at the aunt who turned to leave, and asked with a puzzled look: “Grandpa Lu, why did you not sit in the middle position just now?” Mom said to her, that people sitting in the most conspicuous position are like people. They are all the best, and the directors who are the best in the entire crew?
Lu Jianhui smiled and said, “Because Grandpa Lu, I will still listen to you when you read the lines later, so I can hear you more clearly if I sit closer to you.”
If Lu Jianhui doesn’t care about some things, it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t understand anything. If he follows the rules set before, other people will sit down according to the positions set by the staff. They will be special at the age of one person. This will not affect her well. .
An hour later, the actors came to the meeting room one after another.
“Director Lu, everyone is here, we can start.”
All the actors in the crew knew the temper and character of Director Lu Jianhui, who arrived on time before eight o’clock, and none of them dared to be late. Because all of them know that the consequences of being late can be disastrous, and being educated publicly is considered a good meal, and they are afraid of being kicked out of the crew directly.
They lost an opportunity for nothing, and if this matter spreads out, they will lose face.
A few years ago, there was a small flow student who was late at the script reading meeting. He stumbled while reading the script and was not smooth at all. He was directly driven out by Director Lu and refused his performance. The investors in the latter drama didn’t use the issue of divestment, and Dao Lu directly changed the investors together. Now so many years have passed, the original traffic niche has long been unknown, but Director Lu is still standing in the TV circle forever.
In fact, there has always been a so-called chain of contempt for filming in the entertainment industry. Those who shoot big screens don’t like shooting small screens. Many people think that making movies is several grades higher than making TV shows. But when it comes to the position of director Lu Jianhui, this problem does not exist. At least most film directors are not as famous as him.
The TV series directed by Lu Jianhui have always been a symbol of ratings and reputation. As long as it is a TV series he made, in the eyes of all Davids, it is a guarantee of ratings. A spy movie in the past few years abruptly pulled China TV’s ratings for this period to break 2. At the end, it pulled the ratings to 3.05, becoming the top ratings of the year.
Based on this alone, as long as it is a TV series produced by director Lu Jianhui, every David TV is rushing to buy the rights to its premiere. Of course the actors also want to gild along with them.
After everyone arrives, the first reading of the script of “Small Alley” will proceed in an orderly manner. Everyone will speak their own lines, and the narration and narrative scenes in the script will be read aloud by the staff.
In this script reading meeting, every plot was discussed in detail. It took six hours, from 8 in the morning to 3 in the afternoon, and they had a rest for more than an hour in the middle. The staff of the crew gave everyone who came to the scene. Prepared a hearty lunch.
The screenwriter also recorded some large and small problems in the script that were discovered during this round of reading, all of them were recorded one by one, and when they were ready to go back, they should hurry to correct them, and then change the new ten episodes. The script is then distributed to each actor, so that everyone will have time to familiarize themselves with the changes in the script before the filming officially starts on September 10.
“Sui Sui, your performance this time is very good. If you keep on doing it, I am very optimistic about you.” Lu Jianhui was sitting next to Gu Suisui just now, and he heard every word she read very clearly.
Many children came to participate in the script reading meeting today, some of them were old and some were young. There are three children who are as young as Gu Suisui. One is the actor of the beautiful and cowardly Sun Miaomiao, who is also a little girl, and the other two are little boys. They are next to the Zhou family and the Sun family in the play. Children of two families.
The other three little actors, because they were young and didn’t know many words, were a little stumbling while reading the lines just now. In the end, they finished the task with the help and reminders of the staff on the side.
As for the remaining small actors, they are all at the age of elementary school and junior high school. The lines written in the script have no obstacles in reading after being taught by adults, and they can all read fluently.
But Gu Suisui is the best read of lines among these children, and his brothers and sisters who are several years older than her performed well.
It can be seen that Suisui did a lot of work in private.
“Grandpa Lu, don’t worry, I will definitely continue to cheer.” Gu Suisui clenched her small fist and said seriously.
During the meeting just now, Gu Suisui thought about what he had promised to Grandpa Lu before, and was always very serious when reading the script. Not only did she read a word correctly, she also tried to add her feelings when she read the lines according to the method Dad Ke taught her yesterday.
