two months later.
Xu Jiao was sitting in a vacant lot outside the filming of "The Green Jade Case", carrying a small bench and sitting there in a daze. The shooting scene is actually a little simpler than imagined, which is convenient for the special effects production in the later stage to be put into the screen.
There are some pure green and pure blue background walls, and actors occasionally need to install some equipment on their bodies, so that they can arrange the vivid future world scene on the 3D screen.
There are not enough scenes, only emotions can be gathered.
In fact, when shooting this kind of sci-fi film, you have to add your own feelings to it, and put it on the big screen and let the audience immerse in it. The test of the actors' acting skills is very high, because every frame of yours will be judged by the audience. The MAX screen is enlarged. Once the emotions are not full enough, or the transition is not natural enough, the audience will easily play.
This is also the reason why movies are more test of acting skills than TV shows.
In this movie, her role is known. Qiu Yongli plays the android Xia Weiyang who is a hundred years later. The difficulty of playing an emotional android lies in how to get closer to insensibility. Wei Yang is not difficult, she just needs to be happy and spoiled like an ordinary youth school drama, and Xu Jiao's acting skills are difficult...
It's about how to express your suppressed emotions.
The part I took just now was the part where Zhi Zhi was teaching Xia Weiyang to fall in love, Zhi Zhi looked at the face in front of him that was exactly the same as his former lover, and held back the pain in his heart, and put those past The memories were picked up bit by bit and spread out to the other party to see. She was patient and careful when teaching, but in fact she was full of grief in her heart.
Those memories were like the scabbed wounds on her heart. Seeing that the scars were about to remain, she tore up the blood scabs with her own hands and showed the bloody traces to the other party—
Xu Jiao recently tried not to use that 'immersive' halo, which meant that she had to be immersed in this suppressed and unreleased emotion at all times. She wanted to think of herself as Xia Weiyang, so she joined the group. In the past month, she has lost ten pounds directly.
Now she is sitting next to her and did not participate in the filming, because just now her emotions were a little broken, and she couldn't hold back her tears where she should not be crying, so the director asked her to calm down by herself.
Qiu Yongli was freed from the emotionless state of the android, looked at her worriedly, and whispered to her agent who came to visit the class:
"Sister, I originally thought that I was a little disadvantaged by taking the role of Xia Weiyang. After all, knowing is the real heroine, so it's a bit of a calculation, but now I see Teacher Xu like that, and I'm suddenly very lucky..."
"If I acted out, I might collapse on the first day, and my mentality collapsed."
She touched her little chest with emotion, but her eyes were still focused on Xu Jiao, as if she wanted to enlighten her, but she didn't dare to approach her. She only watched from a distance, keeping her hands warm. The red dates and white fungus soup is not sweet anymore.
The agent glanced at her and sighed helplessly. Qiu Yongli is a very lucky type in this circle. As soon as he debuted, a work immediately became popular, and then he starred in "The Palace Wall Willow". The heroine's play.
However, Xu Jiao was obviously a little bit luckier than her.
Although he was wandering in the 18th line before, the result was a marriage, which took off directly with Feng Qingyu's resources, and then he participated in "The Palace Wall Willow", which was originally just a role similar to the fourth female, but she and Feng Qingyu performed it. This year's most abusive love of life and death, the popularity directly surpassed that of the male and female protagonists. In the emotional line, the audience only remembers the concubine P, where do they remember the male and female protagonists
Now it's even better. She directly used the popularity of the previous film to enter the front line of this year, and took the cover of the first-line magazine in November. Now she has won the female number one of "Sapphire Case".
but…
The manager glanced at Qiu Yongli, who didn't show much jealousy at all, and couldn't help sighing.
fair enough-
There are already too many ambitious people in this circle. Although they have gone a little higher than those who have no ambition, they are also too tired.
It's good that Qiu Yongli is so generous, stupid people have stupid blessings, he is the type of happiness that is rare in this circle, the agent thought.
…
Qiu Yongli walked towards Xu Jiao, holding another bowl of red jujube and white fungus soup.
Xu Jiao heard the movement and turned to look at her. She saw the hot soup handed over to her, smiled and thanked her, then took it, raised her hand to hold the spoon, and stirred slowly, she heard Qiu Yongli in. He asked in a low voice:
"Are you still sad?"
Xu Jiao's movements stopped for a while, and she turned to look at Qiu Yongli. For the first time, she was glad that Qiu Yongli was not the protagonist of the book "Starlight" and didn't have the face she liked, otherwise she would devote herself to herself like this. The emotions poured into it, there will always be a moment when Qiu Yongli is mistaken for... someone else.
The words Feng Qingyu had said before were still echoing in her ears:
"If you have other sweethearts in the future, don't take them for others, okay?"
Qiu Yongli should not be one of these 'them'.
Xu Jiao took a sip of the white fungus soup, and when the faint sweetness melted in her mouth, she suddenly said: "Actually, it's not sad, because some emotions have been deposited for too long, as if they have melted into yours. It's the same in the blood, I don't feel any special sadness anymore."
But not happy either.
Just like a traveler walking in the sky in the canyon, when you look up, you can see the blue line of the sky through the height of the cliff, and the bright and sunny sun is just above her head, making people feel familiar. It seems that she can touch it by raising her hand. The sky is her good mood, but the road under her feet is the road she has been walking. She tried her best to run back to the past, but this deep canyon has no end. .
So she is always at rock bottom.
But now, this work requires her to condense this long road into a single point, so that all her emotions that have passed through the ages are piled up, and she only feels that she is out of breath.
She didn't want to cry because she was sad, but because if she didn't cry, the backlog of emotions would make her collapse.
Seeing the concern in Qiu Yongli's eyes, Xu Jiao hooked her lips to her and said, "It's okay, don't worry about me, I will be able to get out of this state after the filming is over."
Qiu Yongli nodded and suddenly suggested, "Would you like to take a leave to go out for a walk?"
Xu Jiao drank the bowl of soup in her hand in one breath. The tremella soup didn't contain too much sugar. I don't know if it was because Qiu Yongli's manager was afraid that she would gain weight. The sweet taste just waded on the tip of my tongue, and if I wanted to taste it again, I couldn't find the slightest aftertaste, only the faint fragrance of white fungus and red dates.
Putting down the bowl in her hand, Xu Jiao smiled and shook her head at Qiu Yongli: "No need."
It was of no use to her to relax.
Let's finish filming early.
Qiu Yongli looked at her a little hesitantly, there was one sentence stuck in her throat and she didn't say it.
She wanted to ask, you are filming here now, and your mood is so bad, why doesn't Feng Qingyu come to see you
But the situation in the past two months told her that there might be some conflict between Feng Qingyu and Xu Jiao. Some gossip on the Internet started to spread rumors about their marriage after seeing that they had not appeared together in public for a long time. The relationship is broken, and the news of the divorce is ready.
Although Qiu Yongli felt that most of these things with noses and eyes were fake, she also knew that she should not call Feng Qingyu on her own at this time.
Seeing that Xu Jiao continued to be in a daze after drinking the soup, she could only go back to her manager. It happened that Lu Xun came back from abroad at this time and sent her a message asking how her condition was. Qiu Yongli casually took Xu Jiao The situation revealed a few words.
…
After asking the assistant to help clean the dishes in her hand and sending it back to Qiu Yongli, Xu Jiao took a breath, got up and made an "ok" gesture to the director, then walked towards the camera.
Qiu Yongli also put down the phone she was chatting with, returned to her indifferent and polite android appearance, and reappeared in front of Xu Jiao from another direction.
This is the scene where Zhida took the android Xia Weiyang to the mall.
The two walked in a high-end supermarket where people came and went, seeing all kinds of products that dazzled her, their hands resting on the handle of the smart shopping cart that could recognize the way and turn automatically, and their footsteps slowed down involuntarily.
Xia Weiyang asked in time: "Do you like anything?"
Chi looked at her, blinked, and said earnestly, "No, you shouldn't ask me what I like—but throw all the ones I've just seen in the shopping cart."
in memory.
When she was shopping with Xia Weiyang, she could not walk as soon as she passed the snack shelf. She looked at chocolates, potato chips, spicy strips, etc., and she deliberately put down her footsteps. looked back at her.
Then the pace of knowing will be slow, slow, slow until it stops completely.
At this time, Xia Weiyang will walk over helplessly, glance at the snacks on the shelf, and throw all the ones she likes into the car, knowing that she will raise her lips and say:
"Oh, the snacks at home haven't been eaten yet, so will I buy too much?"
Then Xia Weiyang would look at how she got cheap and behaved well, sneered, picked up a corner of a potato chip from the car, and pretended to put it back—
After knowing it, he rushed over: "If I want to buy it, I will buy it! You throw it back and try it, and I won't leave today!"
now.
The android Xia Weiyang glanced at her, and then went to move all the things she had just glanced at. Because it was too accurate, she even threw it into the car with her peripheral vision.
Got it: "!"
She hurriedly stopped and said, "Hey, hey, don't do it. I'm not interested in what kind of nutrient solution and mustard biscuits. I just took a look out of curiosity."
The android Xia Weiyang obediently put everything she said back on the original shelf.
After taking two steps, I realized that I lowered my head and didn't move.
Bionic Man: "?"
She glanced up and down and asked, "I remember that I taught you one hundred and eight ways to tie shoelaces. In today's society, even three-year-old children can tie their own shoelaces. With your current hands-on ability, Look, it shouldn't be a problem for you to have your shoelaces come off."
Got it: "… "
She stared blankly at the bionic man for a long time, and said, "I want you to be the one."
The android Xia Weiyang looked at her and confirmed that this was really the order she gave herself, so she had to come over, bent down, pulled up the two shoelaces she had loosened, and then tied a standard bow.
When tying the shoelaces, the androids in the supermarket and the ordinary humans shopping in the street all cast their gazes in this direction of the two of them.
Zhili pretended not to have found it, and only secretly said in his heart:
What will happen to the world in a hundred years from now
Haven't you seen a love affair with an android
As a result, when the two of them went to checkout, they found out that everyone around them looked back at them, and then gave way to them one after another, wanting them to check out first.
Zhi Liao calmly asked the android next to him: "…Is today a special day? Why did they all make way for me?"
She is obviously not someone who didn't have common sense when she first woke up, but she still doesn't understand why this happens.
Xia Weiyang tilted her head and randomly connected to a channel with a android around her. After a few seconds, she sincerely replied: "Because you asked me to help tie your shoelaces just now, it is considered to be a disabled person, so Everyone very kindly decided to give you priority access."
Got it: "… "
Got it: "Me!"
She hesitated, but in the end, under the friendly and caring eyes of the people in the supermarket, she took Xia Weiyang to hurriedly settle the account and fled. After walking out two steps, she said, "Are you people in this society too unreasonable? I understand romance! Can a couple like tying their shoelaces be mistaken!"
Zhi Liao looked at her, thought for a moment, and answered seriously, "Because no one in this society would fall in love with a bionic person."
When I found out, I was choked.
After walking a few steps, she suddenly threw the shopping bag in her hand in frustration, glanced at Xia Weiyang next to her, and suddenly said: "I don't want to go, Xia Weiyang, you carry me."
"Even if you are regarded as a handicapped person again, do you still insist that I execute this order?" Xia Weiyang asked sincerely.
Knowing that, he was furious, broke the jar and said, "Yeah!"
Then, there were two more overlapping figures on the road.
Xia Weiyang carried the knowledge on her back and walked steadily forward step by step, the person on her body was around her neck, and she was still carrying a large shopping bag on her chest, ignoring the eyes of passers-by walking the dog.
Zhizhi buried his head in the other's neck, and suddenly said dully:
"Xia Weiyang."
"I didn't let you back me before, because there would be a lot of people watching on the side of the road. I was afraid that they would think we were abnormal, so I didn't want you back, but..."
"But now I don't care."
Hearing her words, Xia Weiyang's voice did not fluctuate at all, and replied calmly: "Miss Zhi, this is the first time I have walked on the street with your back."
Knowing that there was no sound, she just buried her head in her neck, and said after a while, "I know."
…
"Card."
In this scene, Xu Jiao finally did not cry in front of the camera, because the content of this part is funny and full of sadness, so it is not suitable for tears in the main corner to create a sad atmosphere.
However, when Qiu Yongli put her down and fell to the side in a lifeless manner as if exhausted, she couldn't help but raised her hand and touched the back of her neck.
There are water marks there.
Xu Jiao was still crying just now.
It just didn't show up on camera.
The agent and assistant gathered around her and patted her shoulders and arms. After all, it was Omega who played such a force show. Although Qiu Yongli was pulled into the gym a few days ago to work temporarily, they were still worried that she would lose her strength. .
After all, Omegas are just so delicate.
But Qiu Yongli didn't pay much attention to their massage, instead he stared at the direction Xu Jiao left, and sighed very maturely.
…
Xu Jiao went to wash her face near a sink outside.
When the coldness washed her face clean, she felt that there were more people around her, of course, not because she was so sensitive to the breath, but because the smell of the other party's pheromone penetrated into her nose.
A little sweet, a little bitter.
It's a smell I haven't smelled in a long time.
She hooked her lower lip, there were still wet water stains on her face, and there were no traces left in her eyes. No one could see that she had just cried. She smiled at the other party and said:
"How did you come?"
Feng Qingyu was wearing a brown windbreaker, a classic from B's family, and a plaid scarf. The whole person was cold and windy, and looked at her calmly. After two seconds, she said:
"Someone told me that you were not in a good mood in the crew, so let me come over and take a look."
Xu Jiao exhaled softly, "Have you seen it now?"
"It's actually fine," she said.
Feng Qingyu didn't answer the topic, just took out a candy from his pocket like a magic trick and handed it to Xu Jiao.
Xu Jiao looked at the candy, the candy paper was reflective, like a colorful color, and the inside was pink, which made it seem like an ordinary strawberry flavor.
She was a little stunned, and didn't raise her hand in time to receive it.
Just listening to Feng Qingyu say: "When I was filming this kind of tragedy, I was very sad, and I couldn't let go of this energy, so I would eat a piece of candy, which would make me feel much better between filming."
Xu Jiao's throat moved a bit, and finally she raised her hand to take it, and thanked in a low voice.
Afterwards, she followed Feng Qingyu and said briskly, as if reminiscing with an old friend, "I thought you wouldn't want to see me again."
After all, the two of them filed for divorce a month ago.
Now Xu Jiao is just reminiscing with Shi Weiya, and she always invites people out, or goes there when Fengfeng Qingyu is not around.
Feng Qingyu lowered her eyes and replied casually: "Yes, but anyone with a normal head will not be humiliated again."
Xu Jiao thought she was called by Qiu Yongli, so she didn't think much about it. She peeled off the candy wrapper and then ate the candy inside. As she expected, it tasted strawberry.
She narrowed her eyes, waited for the sweetness to dissipate, and waved to Feng Qingyu, indicating that she could go back, and then she went in the direction of the crew again.
Take two steps.
Footsteps followed behind.
Xu Jiao thought she was going to say something, so she looked back, but Feng Qingyu didn't leave, instead she glanced at her and said calmly, "You are acting like this because the person you like is gone, and you put your emotions into it. , so my heart is too depressed."
The feeling of looking up and finding someone you like in the world is too cruel.
Xu Jiao didn't answer the question, just looked at her.
Feng Qingyu patiently said, "Don't you think that I am very similar to the person you like? Go and act, I will watch you by the side."
In this way, when you look back and see my face, you may not be so sad and collapse.
Maybe you can deceive yourself, in fact, the person you like is still there, and they are watching you quietly not far away.
Xu Jiao understood her unfinished words, and smiled abruptly: "Feng Qingyu, didn't you just say..."
But any person with a normal head will no longer humiliate himself.
Feng Qingyu interrupted her words, her expression was still indifferent, as if she didn't feel anything: "Well, my head just happens to be a little abnormal now."
She glanced at Xu Jiao calmly, then turned her gaze away and said:
"so."
"I don't know when I'll be back to normal, so hurry up and take a second look."
