After Sheng Ke left, Zhang Zian took the portfolio downstairs, lying on the recliner and reading the documents in the file.
As he expected, after two days of shopping sprees on the weekend, there were fewer customers these days, so he had a lot of leisure time. Lu Yiyun was quietly painting outside. From Zhang Zian's position, he could see that she was obsessed with the tip of the pen. Her head was drooping lower and lower, almost touching the digital drawing board. Whenever this happened, Zhang Zian would pick up his phone and send her a message, reminding her to raise her head.
He felt that this girl would become a great person in the future. Anyone who could be obsessed with something would certainly achieve something in the related field. It was just a matter of time and opportunity.
The photo of Guan Biao in the file should have been taken a few years ago. He was younger than he was now, and his face was not so fat.
Guan Biao was from the neighboring province. He was 39 years old, unmarried, and his highest education was a high school dropout.
He grew up in a village at the foot of a mine mountain. Most of the young men in the village were miners in the mine, so were Guan Biao's father and uncle. Later, his father died because of a mining accident, and his uncle was injured and disabled. The family lost its backbone. Guan Biao replaced his father and entered the mine. Anyway, he did not like school, and his academic performance had always been poor. Among all the subjects, only chemistry was good, and he often got full marks.
At that time, Guan Biao was still a minor. He probably changed his age to follow his father to enter the mine. However, this was very common in rural and remote areas, and it was still the case today.
After entering the mine, his high school dropout turned out to be a top student in the mine. The mine leader did not arrange for him to work in the mine, but let him learn blasting operations from an old master who was about to retire. Since he had a good foundation in chemistry, he was able to understand it almost immediately. Soon, he had learned 80% of the old master's skills, and he even had the tendency to surpass the old master. After all, the old master relied on his experience and had no theoretical foundation. However, during the learning period, he also learned the old master's habit of drinking.
In the mine, drinking was not a big deal. If you did not drink, the rough miners would think you were not manly enough and would make you drink a few times. Besides, the old master had worked in the mine for many years and had never had an accident in blasting. All the accidents were caused by mine collapse, water seepage, or gas explosion, which had nothing to do with the old master.
However, if you walked too much at night, you would eventually meet a ghost.
Once, when the old master led Guan Biao to arrange the cannon holes, something happened.
The record of the mine was vague about the accident, but it was basically the same in that era. It seemed that too much explosives were used, and three people, including the old master, died, but Guan Biao was safe and sound.
Later, because of an accidental opportunity, Feng Xuan took the crew to shoot an outdoor scene near the mine. The pyrotechnician in the crew fell ill, and Guan Biao, who was watching the scene, volunteered. Feng Xuan wanted to give it a try, so he asked Guan Biao to do an explosion scene without people. It was a great success, and the scene was performed very well. Since then, Guan Biao had left the mine and followed Feng Xuan to shoot a few movies. Slowly, he had gained some fame. He had also shot some movies or TV series with other crews. He had never had an accident, at least there was no record of him having an accident.
At that time, there was no qualification certificate in the pyrotechnics industry. Later, there was one, and Guan Biao successfully obtained it with his knowledge of chemistry and circuit. Therefore, he was quite popular in the pyrotechnics industry. Every year, he could take on three or four movies, so he did not have to worry about food and clothing.
Zhang Zian flipped to the back. There were all kinds of movies and TV series that Guan Biao had taken on, most of which he had never heard of. Maybe they had never been released before, and were sealed after they were shot. There was no relevant information on the Internet. After all, most movies and TV series in China had a similar fate every year, so it was not surprising. Speaking of which, the movies made by Feng Xuan had never been popular, but at least every one of them could be released normally. Probably, he was already considered an outstanding director.
Zhang Zian might have been too engrossed in it, and when he did not notice, Famous walked to his side and looked at Guan Biao's photo together.
"This man is lying," Famous said concisely.
"Oh? Famous, how did you know? "Zhang Zian was surprised. He sat up from the recliner and asked seriously.
When Famous was in the shop, it could safely stick out its tongue and did not have to worry about others being afraid of it.
It said, "Because his language told me so."
Zhang Zian was even more confused. When he went to the audition, he and Famous were together all the time. He heard everything that Guan Biao said, but he did not hear any of the words that could prove that he was lying.
Hearing the word "language," the bored Richard became excited. It flew down from the bar, landed on Zhang Zian's shoulder, and said in a sarcastic tone, "Quack! I didn't expect that you would dare to talk about language in front of me. Isn't this like playing with a knife in front of Guan Yu? Come on, tell me, what language is it? "
Famous glanced at it and said, "Body language."
Richard was speechless.
Zhang Zian said gloatingly, "Richard, aren't you known as the Apprehensive Bird? You must know body language, right? "
"So boring! Why do you use body language to say things that you can understand with your mouth? It's totally unnecessary! "Richard shouted discontentedly.
Famous had a good temper. It shook its head and said, "Body language is not used to say, but to express. When language cannot be used to communicate, body language can play a substitute role."
"Quack? When can language not be used to communicate? "Richard said, unconvinced.
Famous looked at Old Time Tea and asked, "Do all the movies in this era have sound?"
This question was very strange. Zhang Zian replied, "Of course, of course the movies have sound. There used to be silent movies, but they have long been eliminated. "
"Oh," Famous said with some disappointment, "Then body language is probably useless..."
"No, no!" Zhang Zian was inspired by Famous. He thought for a while and said, "Of course body language is useful. I used to watch an American TV series called Don't Lie to Me. The male lead in the series judged whether someone was lying by observing their facial expressions and body movements. Although there were elements of exaggeration, this TV series is not empty. It has a relevant theoretical basis called 'micro-expressions.' It is said that human beings have seven basic expressions: surprise, contempt, disgust, fear, anger, sadness, and joy. These are common to all human beings and can even transcend language and national boundaries. Whether it is the cannibal in the Amazon rainforest or the President of the United States, they all have to follow these seven basic expressions. By interpreting the combination of these expressions, you can judge whether someone is lying or not. I think your judgment principle is probably the same as this, Famous. "
Speaking of this TV series, Zhang Zian had watched it with great interest. Unfortunately, because of poor ratings, the evil American TV station canceled the renewal of the series. Although it sounded very simple, micro-expressions were actually very complicated. It was a very professional knowledge that required a lot of research to understand. Scholars who specialized in micro-expressions were even hired by the FBI as consultants to solve cases. Part of the reason why experienced police officers could often tell whether a suspect was lying at a glance was partly because of this.
Famous nodded. "Maybe, but I don't know the principle. I just know that the person is lying at a glance. It's like instinct. As an actor, his acting skills are not up to standard."
Zhang Zian didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "That person is not an actor. He is just a pyrotechnician. He is responsible for making explosion-related special effects on the set. Whether it is a plane bombing or someone being shot and bleeding, it is the pyrotechnician's job."
He thought about it again and decided to tell the elfins what Sheng Ke had said today. Anyway, he only promised not to tell outsiders. The elfins were not outsiders, and of course, they were not his wife...
While paying attention to Lu Yiyun's movements outside, Zhang Zian reorganized the words of yesterday's audition and today's narration to the elfins.
"Why do you always like to meddle in other people's business?"
After he finished, Fina, who seemed to have been dozing off, took the lead and scolded him in an unfriendly tone. "A movie with you in it will definitely be a bad movie, even worse than Cleopatra! It's your duty to come back here and serve this consort! "
Zhang Zian was speechless. Can't you give another example? You know, 99.9% of movies are much worse than Cleopatra...
"Zian, it sounds a little dangerous," Old Time Tea also said with concern.
He quickly clarified, "I am not in danger. Even if there is danger, it is Famous who is in danger."
Famous said calmly, "It doesn't matter. If I don't participate in the shooting, Red Dragon, Prince, and the other dogs may be in danger. I can't watch them get hurt or even die. I will regret it. When I really die, I will definitely regret it. "
It looked up, as if looking at a woman who did not exist in the shop but was smiling at it like a flower.
