Of course, Lin Zhuoyu wouldn't write such a script, and it wasn't the Chinese version of "Brokeback Mountain". The script Xu Jingzhe got was amazing. There was no biography of characters, no plot summary, but only some of his lines and scenes. , in general not a lot.
Lin Zhuoyu said that he just thought about where to write for a while: "You can't be in a good state, you are the kind of unwilling to understand, you are reluctant to come, you are not suitable for the environment, you are homesick, you can't sleep well, and you have no friends."
Xu Jingzhe remembered so many key points, he had to memorize the lines first.
"You and Liang Yu are looking for feelings." Lin Zhuoyu didn't even take drama seriously, he was really casual, "Let's try one at night."
Liang Yu's lines and plots have also been changed a lot. Anyway, it's a night scene, and it has to start after 9 pm at the earliest, so there is plenty of time. Xu Jingzhe and him both stayed on the set, burying their heads in each other's lines. It looks like a group reviewing and waiting for the final exam the next day.
Xu Jingzhe carried his back for a while, he was a little bit buggy, and he often waved his hands in front of his face.
Liang Yu raised his head from the script, glanced at him, and casually called the staff next to him: "Is there any mosquito repellent?"
The other party just brought it, and gave him a whole bottle.
Xu Jingzhe couldn't spray on his face, but he wiped it all over his legs, ankles, and neck.
"I also recited my lines like this when I was just graduating from the show." Xu Jingzhe smiled and said in a low voice, "I keep reading it, I'm afraid I won't be able to remember it."
Liang Yu asked him, "How much have you memorized?"
Xu Jingzhe: "I have few lines, so it should be fine later."
Liang Yu pouted, as if he felt that Xu Jingzhe's role was not conspicuous enough to play well.
"Your hero, I want to be more conspicuous." Xu Jingzhe was quite calm, "This is Director Lin's film."
Chinese director Lin Zhuoyu's achievements are stable in the top three. His international reputation is high, and he is not worse than Qiao Zhenqiao, but it is lower in China because more commercial films are made.
Xu Jingzhe actually has two parts tonight. The first part is about calculating money with Zhou Jiulin's "Old Zhou", the expenses of the team, and quarreling over the invoice, and the other is Liang Yu's "Chen Liangsheng" who came to him, I want to learn to read with him.
"Can you quarrel with Teacher Zhou?" Liang Yu asked suddenly, "Has he taught you a lesson?"
Xu Jingzhe laughed and said, "You will look down on me now, how can you not make a noise when you are acting."
Liang Yu flipped through the script, his role might be a bit difficult for others, but it was suitable for him to play, probably because the growth trajectory and experience in his early years were somewhat similar, so he didn't need much effort to touch the characters soul.
Xu Jingzhe has read the character biography he wrote for "Chen Liangsheng". Lin Zhuoyu's script may not have the ending yet, but the final destination of "Chen Liangsheng" is already in Liang Yu's heart.
The night in the mountains was very quiet. Xu Jingzhe had nothing to do after reciting the lines. He probably slept so well before that this was his most relaxed state of mind on the set since he started his career. The accountant role is also in the script. Without a specific name, he was called "Xiao Xu". Xu Jingzhe was wearing a very worn white shirt, scruffy cotton trousers and hiking shoes, and a jacket.
The quarrel with "Old Zhou" went so smoothly, even director Lin Zhuo didn't expect it to happen to himself. He watched it back and forth several times, but couldn't find any thorns, so he simply said "yes".
Zhou Jiulin praised Xu Jingzhe's accent details: "When did you learn Mandarin with a southern touch?"
Xu Jingzhe said: "It was a period drama several years ago. I played a young man in old Shanghai."
Zhou Jiulin nodded. He knew his proud disciple very well. He learned everything quickly, and his attitude was serious.
"You should have come to make a movie earlier." Zhou Jiulin seemed a little regretful, but what he said was actually quite restrained. After all, Xu Jingzhe was already a palace-level actor in the circle of TV dramas, with a high position in his prime, if he wanted to give it to him Picking up faults and saying that he failed if he didn't act in a movie would be an insult to Xu Jingzhe's efforts and achievements in the past.
Lin Zhuo seemed to have new inspiration after finishing this scene with the director. He was temporarily modifying Liang Yu's script and asked him, "Can you act?"
Liang Yu was made a little irritable by him: "How about you let someone hold the teleprompter, and I will read it so that you can change it at any time?"
Lin Zhuoyu actually felt that this method was feasible, and actually called the assistant director to help with the prompting board.
"Really or not?" Xu Jingzhe sat in the guard booth, and Zhou Jiulin went back after filming. Their scene and this scene were not in the same movie time, so Lin Zhuoyu danced.
Liang Yu didn't want to talk, he might be really angry, he entered the guard booth swearing, he dragged a chair out and put it next to Xu Jingzhe.
Lin Zhuoyu began to clear the scene. This scene does not need a group performance, because only Xu Jingzhe and Liang Yu were filmed. Lin Zhuoyu's camera was very close, and Xu Jingzhe felt that it was probably a close-up of his face.
"The 23rd game, 1 stage, the first rule—" Lin Zhuo hit the board, "action!"
Xu Jingzhe and Liang Yu looked at each other, he was waiting for the other to speak his lines, the first sentence had to be "Chen Liangsheng".
With his back to Xu Jingzhe, the assistant director raised the prompter. Liang Yu's expression seemed to be deserting. He followed the prompter and said absently, "Mr. Xu."
There was no problem with Xu Jingzhe's lines: "What did you ask me to do?"
Liang Yu: "I want to learn something."
Xu Jingzhe asked again, "What do you want to learn?"
Liang Yu hesitated for a while this time before saying, "Learn to read."
He said too lightly, Xu Jingzhe subconsciously moved his head forward and asked repeatedly, "What do you learn?"
Liang Yu stretched out his hand, clicked on the book in front of him, and said, "What do these words mean?"
The book in front of Xu Jingzhe is "Anna Karenina". "Xiao Xu" is not a mountain guard. He is an ordinary accountant. He only needs to be on duty one day a week. The environment here is boring and backward. This night, the only old book I found was this one, so I brought it to read at night to pass the time.
There is this sentence in Xu Jingzhe's back scene: "Anna Karenina", he swiped his finger over as he read, and explained, "It's a personal name."
Liang Yu came over, like a primary school student reading pinyin with a teacher, and recited it like a gourd. He paused and asked, "Is it a woman?"
Xu Jingzhe couldn't help laughing: "It's a woman." He said, "She is a famous beauty in Petersburg society."
Liang Yu asked again, "What is Peterborough?"
Xu Jingzhe: "It's a place, in Russia, you know Russia, right?"
Liang Yu nodded: "Lao Maozi is next door."
Xu Jingzhe got stuck, his lines are here, and he didn't know how to pick them up later, but Lin Zhuoyu didn't call the card, so he could only wait, pretending to be calm, but in fact he didn't know how to continue the performance.
Liang Yu raised his head. He looked at Xu Jingzhe's face, but he was actually looking at the teleprompter at the back. Lin Zhuoyu pushed the camera again, staring at Liang Yu's expression.
"Teach me to read, Mr. Xu." "Chen Liangsheng" said, his face was illuminated by the only lamp in the sentry box, and there were two natural plateau reds on his sun-dried skin, "Teach me to read. , I'll buy you cigarettes and alcohol, don't tell anyone."
Lin Zhuoyu didn't call "card" but didn't directly "pass", he stared at these two thoughtfully, seeing Xu Jingzhe's expression a little strange.
He finally said, "You have to accept a little." Lin Zhuoyu added, "A little emotionally."
Xu Jingzhe didn't speak. He was silent, knowing where his problem was. Actors were actually very taboo about being unable to separate the character from himself. Liang Yu played it without a problem. personal.
Instead, Xu Jingzhe fell into a vicious circle where Liang Yu and "Chen Liangsheng" could not be clearly distinguished. He was so affectionate and majestic. When "Chen Liangsheng" looked at him, his eyes, movements, and lines, Xu Jingzhe could feel himself. Feelings seem to be overflowing and can flow out at any time.
"Don't love him so much." Lin Zhuoyu was sour when he said this. "He's like this now." He pointed to Liang Yu, who was squatting at the gate of the guard booth waiting for them to talk. In order to stay close to the character's image, Liang Yu's hair hadn't been washed for about four or five days, it was greasy and collapsed. His skin was so bad these days that he couldn't see it at all, it was dark and rough, and the "Gaoyuan Red" was not painted by the makeup artist, it was true. Naturally.
Lin Zhuoyu felt a little disgusted: "How good is he now, how can you still love him so much?!"
Xu Jingzhe: "..."
