Great At Acting, Now I’m Reborn

Chapter 12: Temporary stand-in

Views:

Press play.

It means that when two actors are acting against each other, one party is strong and plays well, completely covering the limelight of the other party. And the situation of pressure drama usually occurs in two actors whose performance levels are quite different.

Just like Ji Chen and Yan Yingyi in this scene.

Although Ji Chen has a unique background, his success is not entirely due to his background——

He's a natural star, but also works pretty hard.

When Zhou Yuhe and Ji Chen got along with each other in the previous life, he had clearly experienced the strength of the other party, not only his understanding of acting, but also the script, shooting, directing, and commercial games between producers. The understanding of the circle can really be said to be pervasive, and it has a wide range of exposure, which shows the depth of its drilling skills.

It's a pity that his uncle, that cunning businessman, thought that his cynical nephew just wanted to be a king in the entertainment industry.

Even though acting is just a way for Ji Chen to get acquainted with this circle, he has also made the best of his own efforts. For a large-scale era drama project like "Intelligence", if it is not for his outstanding acting skills, There is no way to help him obtain the relationship with is——

Therefore, his and Yan Yingyi's acting skills are more than a little bit different, and it is not impossible to have the effect of "pressing the drama".

But why would he do this

There are also Yan Yingyi and Yang Yu who are also in doubt.

"You today, no, it should be before the filming yesterday, did you offend him somewhere?" Zhou Yuhe asked.

"No, we have been getting along very well... Oh, by the way, I accidentally spilled iced coffee on his shirt yesterday, but he kept smiling and telling me that it was okay..." Yan Yingyi recalled something.

"That's it," Yang Yu also reacted instantly, "It seems that our crown prince is far less broad-minded than he looks."

Zhou Yuhe is not surprised, he is too familiar with Ji Chen's personality of hiding a knife in his smile.

Including those consoling words before going on stage, there are actually hidden traps such as "Director Lin, a big director with a status in the arena", "I was too nervous yesterday, it must be no problem today", which will faintly increase people's pressure.

On the set, the phenomenon of pressing the scene is very common, but the situation of completely defeating the opponent's actor's psychology and making the opponent unable to take part in the play is not just as simple as the difference in acting skills.

Maybe he even said something like "I've seen your previous play, it's very good", "Everyone is watching you work hard" and so on, which raised Yan Yingyi's mentality to a point where he was so nervous that he was on the verge of collapse. level.

Under the pretense of "pressing the show", what was really staged was actually a set of bullying.

It's just that the means are clever, and it is not easy to be noticed.

Even Yan Yingyi, who was in the game, always thought it was his fault.

"Then what should I do now?" Yan Yingyi nervously finished the last mouthful of ice water and twisted the mineral water bottle in his hand.

Although he knew that it was not his acting problem, Yan Yingyi's emotions were not relieved.

Yang Yu glanced at the twisted water bottle, and said irritably, "I don't know."

"Yuhe..." Yan Yingyi turned his eyes to Zhou Yuhe helplessly.

Zhou Yuhe said lightly, "Don't worry about it, keep playing."

"what?"

Zhou Yuhe added: "We can all see that the drama is overwhelmed, doesn't Director Lin know? He won't sit idly by."

******

Director Lin sat behind the camera monitor, looking at the silent nanny car for a while, and Ji Chen, who was calmly letting his assistant wipe his sweat on the set, the latter felt his gaze and smiled at him. , between the eyebrows is just the right admiration and respect.

Hey, no one is a worry-free guy.

As Zhou Yuhe thought, it was not that he did not see Ji Chen's suppression of Yan Yingyi, but because of the identity of the other party, he turned a blind eye, and even pushed the boat along the way. The temper hurriedly went down so that the next shooting could proceed normally.

This has been going on for so long and it should stop.

As soon as Lin Dao made up his mind, he heard the sound of the door opening over there.

click.

The three of them got off the nanny car one by one.

Yan Yingyi's face was still not very good. Logically speaking, with the reassurance of his manager and colleagues, he should be fine, but his face was surprisingly white.

"What's wrong with you, Xiao Yan?" Director Lin frowned.

Yan Yingyi waved his hand and said that he was fine, but his body curled up uncontrollably. He squatted down, clutching his stomach, cold sweat running wildly from his pale cheeks.

"Not good! Yingyi has eaten his stomach!" Seeing this, Yang Yu immediately thought of the bottle of ice water that had been drained. He was already in a state of high tension, and with the stimulation of ice water, his stomach couldn't take it anymore.

The assistant stepped forward quickly, "How are you Yingyi? Do you need to go to the toilet?"

Yan Yingyi hurriedly shook his head, expressing that he didn't want to have diarrhea, just a stomachache. His lips darkened as he spoke, and he even started retching.

Maybe there is some escapism at work, in short, Yan Yingyi's illness is menacing, scaring many people present.

Yang Yu had no choice but to instruct his assistant to take Yan Yingyi to the hospital, and the studio suddenly turned into a pot of porridge.

"Director, what should we do now? Our shooting schedule has been delayed for an afternoon. This scene must be shot today." The deputy director said.

Director Lin irritably took off his director's hat, "Of course I know! But what can I do now in this situation... No way! I can only use a stand-in to make up the previous shots!"

There was bad news from the personnel department, "But we don't have a substitute with a similar physique to Xiaoyan!"

Director Lin couldn't help but yell, "How do you guys work!"

The personnel girl was very aggrieved. Xiao Yan's substitute didn't join the team on time due to personal affairs. She thought that she should not need a substitute before the filming started, but she didn't care. How did she know such a thing would happen.

At the moment of extreme anxiety, Director Lin suddenly shrank his pupils, and the script rolled into a stick pointed to Zhou Yuhe beside Yang Yu.

"Hey! Who is this! You can! Come here!"

It was only then that everyone suddenly realized that Zhou Yuhe's body shape was really similar to Yan Yingyi's, and his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar.

Zhou Yuhe pointed at himself in surprise and blankness. Yang Yu just put Yan Yingyi in the car. Seeing this scene, he couldn't care about other things. Yan Yingyi's studio mistakes were originally their responsibility. He pushed Zhou Yuhe. A hand, motioning him to hurry over.

Director Lin circled around Zhou Yuhe, "That's great... Okay! It's up to you! Xiao Wang takes him to make up, hurry up!"

It came too suddenly.

Zhou Yuhe, who was unprepared, was dragged to the dressing room just like that.

He is already very good-looking, especially with a pair of thick eyebrows and long eyes, full of sense of age, and he can show the charm of that era incisively and vividly without too much description.

The makeup artist just painted him a little eyeliner and a little shadow, and the makeup was done.

Zhou Yuhe walked out of the dressing room wearing a military uniform, and everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.

Wide shoulders and narrow waist, tall and tall, with perfect proportions, and just the right muscles to wear a military uniform with a heroic appearance and a burst of hormones, as if this suit was specially made for him. The boy's straight back, straight facial features, and sturdy facial lines after makeup, even without speaking, can make people feel an aura of gold and iron.

substitute? Why is Yan Yingyi, who was filming before, like his stand-in

Director Lin's astonishing gaze lingered on him for a long time before he reluctantly retracted it.

"Xiao Zhou, have you read "Intelligence"?" Director Lin asked. When he was putting on makeup, Director Lin had already learned about Zhou Yuhe's origin from Yang Yu's mouth.

Zhou Yuhe: "I've read it no less than three times."

Such a coincidence? Director Lin looked at him in astonishment. If it weren't for the expression on his manager Yang Yu's face, he would have wondered if there was an unknown story in today's episode.

"Then you should be familiar with the plot." The assistant director didn't think so much, he was very satisfied with Zhou Yuhe.

"Then you have to follow the rules. Let's audition first." The strict director Lin was about to audition. He handed the script to Zhou Yuhe.

In fact, Yan Yingyi performed well in the first scene shot yesterday, but she was not full of emotion, so she was asked to retake it continuously.

Things are different now.

In order to make the shooting progress, I can only make up for some defective shots on the premise of yesterday's shot.

The so-called substitute.

Divided into Wendi and Wudi.

Wu Ti is a specially invited actor who protects the actor's personal safety in the martial arts action and some dangerous scenes, while Wen Ti is responsible for the position of the actor in the play and the shooting of the actor's back in some scenes.

"Intelligence" has a lot of shots that depict the hearts of characters. In this way, the number of camera changes and camera position changes will be very large, especially the protagonist Gu Wuxi. For the same scene, his shooting volume is often three or four times that of the opponent actor. In order to relieve his shooting pressure, the entire crew also Only he has a special substitute, and the others are shared by several substitutes.

Although it is only an on-the-spot stand-in, there is not a single process that should be taken.

Zhou Yuhe sat on the torture chair with mixed emotions.

On the opposite side is Ji Chen, who is half-smiling, sitting on a chair and teasing with the little assistant, causing the assistant's sister to laugh frequently.

It's one thing to see from a distance, it's another thing to really face to face so close.

The people who faced each other like yesterday, went crazy, and finally died together...

And then appeared in front of you today, intact, as it was twenty years ago.

This visual impact, I believe not everyone has the opportunity to experience.

"Relax, don't be too nervous." Ji Chen noticed Zhou Yuhe here, he glanced at Zhou Yuhe's hands tightly holding the script, and couldn't help but smile.

With that gentle and polite appearance, if he hadn't known the true face of this person long ago, he would definitely have been deceived into thinking that he was a very easy-going, kind and elegant person.

Zhou Yuhe took a deep breath.

Then he pulled out a cold smile and said indifferently, "Thank you, Brother Ji."

The whole body exudes not feeling cold to Ji Chen.

"You're welcome." Ji Chen was slightly taken aback.

He has always been very popular, and it was the first time that he was deflated, and the other party was still a little actor who couldn't even call his name.

But the appearance is really outstanding.

Ji Chen hooked his lips, not angry.

"I heard that you have watched "Intelligence" three times?" Ji Chen's long legs overlapped, and his momentum was lazy and strong.

"Yes." Zhou Yuhe pinched the script.

Seeing that the other party's mental state was not much better than Yan Yingyi's, Ji Chen said "sure" generously and walked away.

Director Lin pulled Ji Chen aside.

"Xiao Yan went to the hospital. Our filming progress has been slowed down a lot. This time, don't make any mistakes. Xiaoji, can you understand what I mean?"

Ji Chen shrugged and said with a natural expression, "Of course, don't worry."

He's not as boring as running to make things difficult for a small person.

As for the popular young boy of the new generation yesterday, in fact, he just suppressed his drama a little bit, and he was just out of breath. Who knew that it would be so violent that he would have to go to the hospital

Ji Chen smiled coldly and glanced at Zhou Yuhe, who was so nervous on the torture chair that his eyes were empty.

If you don't even have this mental quality, then don't act.
