No matter how handsome the man or the beautiful woman is standing at the bathroom door talking, the scene will be awkward.
Chen Minhao was the first to speak: "Let's go to the actors' lounge to chat, review the script, and talk about the characters."
Lidya Su hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay."
As soon as the two sat on the chairs in the rest area, Chen Minhao's assistant Chen Qiang handed over two bottles of water.
Lidya Su was not polite, said "thank you" and caught the water.
Su Xiao asked her assistant to hand over the script and said, "The opposite scene will be filmed tomorrow, shall we check the words first?"
Chen Minhao nodded with satisfaction. He admired people who respect their jobs and their careers.
For the scenes that will be performed tomorrow, both of them have already memorized the lyrics in advance. After entering the duel mode, there is actually no need for a script.
Although the two of them were sitting on chairs and did not move or move, they were completely emotionally engaged in the dialogue, not just reciting the words dryly.
At some point, Director Wei stood next to the two of them. After he watched the two of them finish a scene, he clapped his hands gently.
Director Wei nodded with satisfaction and said: "You should maintain this mood and perform tomorrow. Classmate Momo and classmate Wu Yan, it's great that you two can play against each other in advance! I'll wait and let the logistics add drumsticks for you.
The two of you also need to interact more outside the scene. Once you become familiar with each other, the filming effect will be more realistic.
By the way, classmate Lu Xinghai is coming over in the evening. You all should say hello then. "
Using the name of the character in "The Best of Youth" to call the actor's name, this director is also a drama star.
Different from the youth films that have been advertised as "emotional" in recent years, "The Best Youth" does not involve breakups, abortions and incest, but is simple and clean.
Because the author of the original novel was the top liberal arts student in the Harbing City College Entrance Examination and was later admitted to Peking University Guanghua, her novel is full of the most delicate experiences of high school life—military training, exams, homework, morning readings, parent-teacher conferences, etc. There are separate classes for arts and science, a whole-school chorus, and a dean who is always lecturing.
Of course, as a youth novel, there is also the indispensable romance. The novel tells the story of Momo, a "student scumbag" who accidentally entered a key high school, and Wu Yan, a "student tyrant" who became classmates. They grew up together, experienced separation and reunion.
And Lu Xinghai is the heart-wrenching second male lead. To put it in a layman's terms, he is: a tool man, a spare tire or a jack.
The actor who plays Lu Xinghai is Zhang Xinyi.
Chen Minhao once met Zhang Xinyi at the airport. Last year, he had two consecutive dramas that were hits. Although the roles he played were not male protagonists, his performance was enough to secure him a second-tier role.
Chen Minhao was a little curious, why would he be the male supporting actor for him? There are many things to do, and this curiosity is not enough to allow myself to explore.
"What are you thinking about? You were stunned." Su Xiao stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Chen Minhao.
After a brief exchange, Chen Minhao knew that what was said on the Internet about the little girl in front of him acting like a big name was basically nonsense.
From the time the two of them greeted each other until now, the smile on Su Xiao's face has never dropped except during scenes.
Chen Minhao suddenly thought that she had acted in many scripts, so he asked curiously: "Do you know Zhang Xinyi?"
Su Xiao said like a frightened rabbit: "I don't know him, I haven't seen him before."
Chen Minhao thought to himself, if you haven't seen it before, then you haven't seen it before. Why are you reacting so loudly
Lidya Su suddenly stood up and said, "Sorry, I have to go to the bathroom."
She trotted all the way there.
Chen Minhao thought to himself, damn, when she left the bathroom, she must have walked in.
'(°ー°〃)It's a bit awesome to hold it in for so long.
… …
Wei Ming is a director who does what he says, even if he says add chicken legs. Chen Minhao and Su Xiao really added chicken drumsticks to their lunch boxes at night, and each of them added two drumsticks.
Looking at the two chicken legs, Su Xiao said: "I have been losing weight recently, but Director Wei specially added chicken legs to me. I can't let him down."
Chen Minhao nodded and said, "Only when you are full can you have the strength to lose weight."
While Chen Minhao and Su Xiao were sitting on the pony eating chicken legs, Director Wei came over with Zhang Xinyi.
When Director Wei saw the two enjoying the meal, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "You are both young people. Promote your relationship well, so that you can have a fuller relationship when acting."
"Shall we play with pesticides? Playing with pesticides is the best way to promote feelings." Su Xiao wiped her hands with a wet wipe and said.
"Pesticides?" Chen Minhao showed a confused expression.
"Don't you think you've never even played with King Pesticide?" Zhang Xinyi snorted and looked at Chen Minhao with contempt.
As soon as he finished speaking, his manager Zeng Chao slapped him on the head and said, "You internet-addicted boy, do you still have sense?"
Su Xiao came to the rescue and said: "The role of Wu Yan played by Chen Minhao is a top student. It seems that he will play his true character."
Chen Minhao grinned and said, "No, it's because I'm too behind the times. Just wait for me and I'll download it right away."
Playing games can really enhance relationships.
Chen Minhao, Su Xiao, Chen Minhao's assistant Chen Qiang, Su Xiao's assistants Zhang Wei and Zhang Xinyi, the original communication between the five people was gentle with a hint of restraint.
After a few rows of games were played, half of the crew gathered around due to the shouts of several people.
"Steal the dragon. Damn it, there's an ambush."
"Zhang Xinyi, don't waste your time!"
"Follow me and charge!"
"Chen Minhao, run, run, don't come to save me."
"Hold still, don't wave!"
… …
A few people said they would go to bed as long as they won one game, but ended up kneeling down for seven games in a row until twelve o'clock in the morning.
Chen Minhao didn't say anything, and directly asked the set manager to drive the 30 people in the crew who had not left to the nearest barbecue stall, and he reserved the place for a treat.
Back at the hotel, as soon as Chen Minhao was lying on the bed, Kang Hui's call came.
"I heard from Director Wei that you invited more than 40 people from the crew to have a barbecue? This young man is very kind."
“My wallet was flat after the treat.”
Kang Hui chuckled: "Are you crying about poverty with me in disguise?"
Chen Minhao asked: "Can crying poor change the share ratio?"
Kang Hui said without hesitation: "No. By the way, how do you feel about being on the set today?"
"It's good. Lidya Su and Zhang Xinyi are very easy to get along with."
"Then don't worry. The reason why I called you so late is because I got the news today that Zhang Xinyi was auditioning for the first male lead at the beginning."
"You mean he might be targeting me because he's unhappy with me?" Chen Minhao asked.
"I don't rule out this possibility. In addition, you have to distinguish between the inside and outside of the play, and don't pretend to be real."
Chen Minhao was stunned for a moment before he realized what Kang Hui was talking about and said, "Sister Kang, don't worry, it won't happen."
