After all, there are so many people who are going to the forum to discuss the meaning of the words. It's really hard to know when the words are going to be translated.
Being called this kind of address, Yan Binbin's face sinks in an instant. For an actor, especially a star actor, there is almost no difference between pointing his nose and swearing.
But she can't attack. Cheng Baoguang's reputation is not well-known, but her position in the industry is quite high. Her series of red works have been praised by the highest level, and have complicated relations with the government.
Just enjoying the national, family allowance and subsidy will make many actors give up.
Bingbin can only endure, anyway, with her face, this kind of accusation is nothing.
However, this is just the beginning.
Cheng Baoguang seems to be very dissatisfied. He doesn't shut up and goes on to say, "such a good academic seminar on film must have the identity threshold of" there are great scholars talking and laughing, and there are no white men coming and going ". It's just nonsense to force the actors to come in and make a mess."
That's a bit wrong. It doesn't sound like it's aimed at Yan Binbin. Murphy can see that Feng Daya and Jiang Xiaojun's faces on the opposite side are also ugly. After all, they have played more than one role, more than one film, and they can also be classified as "actors".
But they, like bingbin, obviously have some scruples and can only sit there, doing nothing and saying nothing.
"Are they fighting against each other?" Gail gado couldn't understand, but he could see, "what's going on?"
Murphy can only judge according to what he sees. Mr. Cheng Baoguang is obviously dissatisfied with the fact that Yan Binbin has robbed himself of the limelight. He deliberately attacks as if his status is unusual. Yan Binbin, Feng Daya and Jiang Xiaojun can only listen and dare not jump out to fight back.
Even if you put all this aside, just looking at Cheng Baoguang's words, this moralist feels that it's natural for him to regard artists as "actors". The retro and atavistic attitude of "everything is inferior, only reading is high" seems cute and sour in the 21st century.
He turned his head and looked at the young translator standing behind Gail gado. His face was not full of words. Looking into Cheng Baoguang's eyes, he seemed to have disdain. Murphy waved and called him over.
"Who is Cheng Baoguang?" He asked in Chinese.
"A writer who specializes in red plays and red works." Speaking of this, the translator remembered that Murphy might not be able to understand, and quickly explained in a low voice, "red play is..."
"I know what it is." Murphy interrupted. "Go on."
"Well!" The translator nodded, "he wrote a lot of classic red plays, enjoyed special state subsidies, and was praised by the top leaders as a top artist with both virtues and arts."
Hearing this, Murphy understood that Cheng Baoguang should be an official, and he was famous at the top level. No wonder people like Fu Binbin, Feng Daya and Jiang Xiaojun don't fight back.
Maybe when he was young, Jiang Xiaojun had long been hairy, but he had experienced such ups and downs, and the edges and corners were almost ground.
Just when Murphy asked questions, the organizer went over and said something to him. He stood up and left the rostrum.
The unhappiness and unhappiness of bingbin's departure can be seen by anyone.
The organizer also found an excuse as soon as possible - bingbin's fans were too fanatical for safety.
From the host's mouth out of such a declaration, also can be regarded as to leave the final face.
Objectively speaking, any place where there are stars may cause potential small chaos. The enthusiasm of fans gathering together always makes people fear the possibility of losing control. If it's really out of the comparison between this prediction and their own security ability, the undertaker wants to leave bingbin in order to ensure safety.
To be honest, it's not polite, but politeness is more important than safety.
However, everyone present can see that this is not for safety, but to take care of some people's seemingly strong but actually fragile self-esteem.
"I think this man is very annoying! It's disgusting
The translator finally found time to say Cheng Baoguang's words to Gail gado. Gail gado was obviously unhappy, "he's insulting all the actors!"
Murphy also heard the English translation just now. The young translator didn't add to the story, but objectively retelled Cheng Baoguang's words in proper English.
Like Feng Daya and Jiang Xiaojun, the term "actor" makes everyone who has been an actor feel unhappy, and Gail gado is no exception.
Cheng Baoguang's face also disgusts Murphy. Such an expert professor is really
At this moment, Cheng Baoguang's eyes swept over from this side, and then fixed on Gail gado's body, in which the disdain and contempt, even the translation behind Gail gado can see.Gail gado, of course, felt it. She turned to Murphy. "Can I talk?"
"Say whatever you want," Murphy said of course, not to stop her girlfriend. "I'm the one."
However, even at this time, Gail gado still waited for the host to finish his crosstalk and temporarily enter into a pause to adjust his breathing before he stood up.
"I'm sorry to interrupt you." Gail gado didn't have a microphone, so he just raised his voice and said, "someone just spoke freely, and I have a few words to say."
Murphy stood up to accompany Gail gado, took the initiative to do a Chinese translation, and then looked at the host.
He is one of the most important guests in this event, and he comes from the other side of the Pacific Ocean. In this country, he will bring some indescribable advantages.
The host is still hesitating. Jon Landau takes two microphones next to him and hands them to Murphy. Murphy hands another one to Gail gado. Gail gado picks up the microphone and looks at Cheng Baoguang.
"I can't agree with what you said just now, sir."
Gail gado said in front, and Murphy translated it into Chinese. His voice was loud enough to make the whole auditorium hear clearly. "According to common sense, any kind of appellation has different meanings, just as you can call a black man 'African American' instead of 'nigger'. If you use the latter, you will have to pay a price. Similarly, you can call that young lady an "actor" or an "artist", but you can't say that she is an "actor". In today's context, "actor" is a stigmatized term with a clear meaning of derogation and contempt. It is a discriminatory language in the industry. In the United States, she will be prosecuted and may also bear criminal responsibility! "
Cheng Baoguang listen to these words, long face instantly pulled down, just because of the crime Binbin was forced to leave, to find the self-esteem, almost Gail - gado smashed.
A person from Hollywood, who blames the film circle here, may be attacked by the crowd in the past, but now the whole audience looks at Cheng Baoguang with a black face, only schadenfreude in their eyes.
"This woman is good." Jiang Xiaojun leaned up to Feng Daya's ear and muttered, "I really want to clap her."
"He should have!" Feng Da Ya whispered back, "someone should treat him well. He knows how to use the official background to bully us. He's the master from Hollywood. What else can he do?"
Cheng Baoguang doesn't seem to know how to refute Gail gado. Use his own identity to suppress it. Will a person from Hollywood eat this?
He held his breath in his chest for a long time before he said, "you are not qualified to talk to me!"
"Do I have the right to speak to you?" Murphy's anger only went up, attacking Gail gadobi, attacking himself, but also making him angry, "Mr. Cheng, I don't know that I'm qualified to be a film director with..."
He deliberately accentuated his tone, "do you want to talk to an old artist like you
Because of Cheng Baoguang's identity, the filmmakers on this side of the stage can only resist laughing, but the students on the other side of the stage don't care about it. When they hear the word "virtue and art", they burst into a burst of ironic laughter.
This is a formal occasion, this kind of irony is not suitable to say too much, want to make their own words stand, it is necessary to put the facts and reason.
"I can speak fluent Chinese, and I know something about it." Murphy didn't give Cheng Baoguang a chance to continue to talk. "As far as I know, the identity of performers here has undergone subtle changes. After 1949, artists and many bottom-level workers were grouped together and re included in the ranks of" working people ", because their bottom-level identity was given lofty justice again."
As Murphy said, he seems to really know this side very well. "With the complete involvement in institutionalization, the individuality of artists has completely disappeared. Instead, they become part of the huge national machine as" performing artists "and are required to be dignified, decent and virtuous."
It seems to agree with this point of view, only Murphy's voice echoed at the scene, "this kind of situation without real labor and market pricing creates a state of no hurry and no delay, eliminating secularization desire, which is recognized as the most appropriate style of performance practitioners. But with the rapid development of marketization, artists quickly return to their original working mode and social status, and more importantly, they get rich material returns. This seemingly easy way of acquiring wealth and being sought after by others have created a serious psychological imbalance for many people, especially those whose identities have declined rapidly in the process of marketization.
