I Really Can’t Act

Chapter 21: Add drama

Views:

After filming a few scenes, Mei Zihan dragged his exhausted body back to the small house he rented with Jiang Ying.

This time, the shooting location was quite far from Mei Zihan's own house, and it was unrealistic to run back and forth, so he simply rented a nearby dwelling.

Of course, dormitories are also arranged in the crew.

But a poor crew who couldn't even afford roasted pigs at the opening ceremony and could only use roasted chicken instead, couldn't expect the conditions of the dormitory to be so good.

If Mei Zihan was the only one, he would go and live there without saying a word. It's not like he hasn't lived there before. But... But isn't it because Jiang Ying is also here

As the saying goes: No matter how hard it is, you can't suffer your children, and no matter how poor you are, you can't have a poor wife.

Of course it's okay for him to live in the dormitory by himself, but Jiang Ying has a delicate skin and tender flesh, how can he suffer like this with him

Besides, the sound insulation conditions of the dormitory are just like that, what if someone finds out that he and Jiang Ying are talking about love and making some intimate gestures

But it would be even more unrealistic to make Mei Zihan as pure and ascetic as a monk.

He agreed to Jiang Ying and him to come to the set, also with the idea of enhancing their relationship.

This drama will take at least two months to film, and the intimate time of two months must not be wasted.

He will be twenty-eight in a few months.

... Anyway, I will hit base on my 28th birthday.

Of course, Mei Zihan still felt a little dark in his heart.

This is an upright way to bring family members to film a movie. How many people in the entire entertainment industry have such treatment

Having said that, I have to mention Mei Zihan's luck.

There are very few residential houses near the crew, and they are renting short-term, so it is not easy to find a suitable one for a while.

It's really luck that can't stop it. Mei Zihan was pleasantly surprised to find that Jiang Ying and he could only rent this one-bedroom, one-living room. She really wanted to thank God.

Ah, this crew really came to the right place.

So what if you can only get paid as a male supporting role? But this kind of opportunity is almost impossible to ask for.

After eating, taking a shower, it's almost time to go to bed.

The bed is not big, he and Jiang Ying are destined to squeeze together, so as not to bump into each other, when the time comes, he will add more oil...

"...the water isn't hot yet, are you in a hurry?" Jiang Ying looked at Mei Zihan curiously and asked.

Mei Zihan realized that her gaze was a little too explicit.

He quickly looked away from the bathroom, "It's nothing, I just feel a little tired."

"I've filmed several scenes in a row today, so it's normal for you to be tired." Jiang Ying tilted her head and thought for a while, "But you can't take it lightly. There will be a big scene tomorrow, and you probably won't be able to pass it alone."

Speaking of this important event, Mei Zihan's hot-blooded head suddenly turned cold.

He had finally forgotten it, and wanted to go home and relax, why did Jiang Ying remind him of it

Mei Zihan looked at Jiang Ying with sadness.

After the day's work is done, it is insane to mention it at night!

Why didn't he realize that his boyfriend was a disguised workaholic before he pursued Jiang Ying? Why is it so difficult for him to be a salted fish!

"It was all good before, and I have almost memorized the scripts of the first five episodes, but suddenly I have to add another scene." Mei Zihan couldn't help complaining, "When he said that there was going to be an additional scene, why didn't Director Wen mention it? Is the budget tight?"

"... There are not a few words in the scene tomorrow." Jiang Ying interjected.

"I'd rather it have lines!" Mei Zihan burst into anger.

Jiang Ying realized that Mei Zihan was dissatisfied, so she had to sit down and listen to him complaining slowly, venting her anger.

It was right for him not to speak at this time, just to stroke Mei Zihan's hair.

"I can understand Director Wen's desire to strive for perfection. I especially understand that I will try my best to act as long as I can. However, Director Wen really thinks highly of me? I'm just a low-level actor. .” Mei Zihan pointed a little finger.

Jiang Ying laughed out loud, "I think it's a little bigger than this one."

"You haven't seen it before, how do you know how old I am?" Mei Zihan retorted subconsciously.

As soon as the words fell, Mei Zihan's face turned red.

"Are you flirting with me just now?" Jiang Ying was stunned for a moment, then responded with a smile.

"No, I'm very upright." Mei Zihan replied solemnly.

"Well, I didn't hear anything just now." Jiang Ying said following his words.

In fact, when I was abroad, playing a yellow accent was nothing at all, and even Jiang Ying, who was outrageous, had seen it before. But for some reason, in Mei Zihan's heart, Jiang Ying was as pure and flawless as the snow lotus on Tianshan Mountain.

Although he hasn't eaten pork, it doesn't mean he hasn't seen pigs running.

Reluctance to have sex before marriage does not mean that you have no desire.

"Ahem, let's continue the topic just now." Mei Zihan twisted his body unnaturally, and forcefully changed the topic to the front.

"Do you think you can't act well?" Jiang Ying finally understood, and she exaggerated, "Actually, your acting skills are much better than before."

More than a little stronger.

In the eyes of others, it is simply reborn.

If screenwriter Zhang hadn't seen Mei Zihan's progress with his own eyes, he wouldn't have agreed to add such a scene.

"It's much stronger, but I still know how much I have." Mei Zihan was depressed, "Tomorrow's scene, Lu Pingan will change from being disheartened at the beginning to taking care of the three children. In the future, there are only two lines in the middle, and nothing else."

There are no lines, such a long long-shot performance, the requirements for Mei Zihan can be imagined.

Even on the big screen, there are not many opportunities for such challenges.

If this scene is performed well, the role of Lu Pingan will undoubtedly be more plump and three-dimensional.

After all, a stepfather wholeheartedly raises three children who are not related to him by blood, and even refuses the opportunity to have a better family because of this. It will appear "floating" and difficult to ground.

And a proper performance will allow the emotions of the character Lu Pingan to be clearly and accurately conveyed to the audience, and will also make the subsequent plot more realistic.

In the original script, this transition is simplified, not so rich. Because the director and screenwriter themselves know how demanding the addition of such a scene is for the actors, and if the performance is not good, it will become a failure.

But I don't know how to do it, so I decided to add it temporarily.

"Hey." Mei Zihan sighed, "Before I came back, the director told me to figure it out and don't be nervous. But when Director Wen said this, his eyes were full of pain, as if I would just spend all his money on him." same budget."

In words, Wen Mingjiang had already prepared for a scene to be filmed for three or four days, but in order to make this show better, he also wanted to work hard.

"The scene he wants to add himself, I have never been able to but he has to bear it!"

It is best for Wen Mingjiang to only drink porridge for the next two months, not even pickles.

Mei Zihan thought darkly.

"I suggested that the director and screenwriter add this scene." Jiang Ying said suddenly.

"Huh?" Mei Zihan couldn't believe it.

"They discussed it before when they were writing the script. It is really difficult to perform this scene smoothly. It can't be dealt with with eye drops. But after persuading me, they decided to add .Although Wen Mingjiang is not a good director, at least he has the heart to make a good drama."

The way Mei Zihan looked at Jiang Ying could only be described as "cheating".

"You...you..." Mei Zihan said several times in a row, but you couldn't say a complete sentence.

It took a long time for Mei Zihan to calm down a little.

"Honey, I know you have a lot of confidence in me. But aren't you a little too confident?" Mei Zihan almost wanted to growl.

There is no such thing as you cheating on your boyfriend!

"Isn't there still me?" Jiang Ying didn't seem to take this kind of thing seriously at all, "And your recent performance has indeed reached a small bottleneck, just to break through."

"Do you think I'm a Super Saiyan, and I can transform into a breakthrough when I meet an enemy that I can't beat?" Mei Zihan almost wanted to cry, "If I had such great acting skills, I would have soared into the sky long ago."

"So we have to prepare it." Jiang Ying patted Mei Zihan on the shoulder, "It's only nine o'clock, we are young and strong, it's okay if we don't sleep all night, anyway, you have to get rid of dark circles tomorrow, which will save trouble gone."

—Sorry, I just want to sleep with you in another way!

Mei Zihan scolded Jiang Ying severely with her eyes.

"The water is almost hot, are you still going to wash?" Jiang Ying asked suddenly.

"… no thank you."
