Three days later, Song Yimian followed Shen Huai to Dongjiang City, where the crew of "Red Star".
During this time, Song Yimian thought a lot, he understood Shen Huai's good intentions, and finally decided to overcome his fears. He didn't enter the crew, so naturally he couldn't see the script, so he could only make a biography for the character he was going to audition for based on the original work of "Red Ling".
Song Yimian has become more and more accustomed to this preparation method. Even when doing these preliminary work, he is also constructing a character image in his mind and imagining his own performance.
An actor is a profession that requires imagination. There are always people who say that an actor needs a sense of belief. What is a sense of belief, that is, the actor himself must first believe in the role he plays, but many times there is no way to give the actor a suitable situation on the set. There is a green screen scene, but there is no physical performance. At this time, all the actors can rely on is their sense of belief in the role.
Actors with spiritual energy can understand the character at the moment of seeing the character, create a complete and three-dimensional character design, and then rely on their own limbs to express it. But for Song Yimian, this is a very difficult thing. He needs a longer and longer time to let himself refine the character step by step, and then slowly immerse himself in it.
Chu Meibo appreciates his preparation method, which makes Song Yimian more confident. He has been studying this character for the past three days, and occasionally has a voice call with Chu Meibo to discuss how to build a character and how to perform.
Chu Meibo also felt his progress and was very pleased.
She now somewhat understands the thoughts of those mother fans who call Ye Cang "Cubs". It turns out that this is the end of cultivation!
Song Yimian successfully completed the audition, but the result has not come out so soon, he still has to wait for the news, Song Yimian must have been very uneasy before, but this time, he was unexpectedly calm. It was as if he had entered the examination room before he finished his studies, so he was naturally worried about how he did in the examination, but now he seems to have just finished the arduous senior year. Already have a plan.
After the audition was completed, Song Yimian didn't go back immediately. Shen Huai asked him to pretend to be an assistant and go to Chu Meibo's second audition.
It's not so much an audition, it's more that the director adjusts the script and the way of shooting according to the actor's status.
The director's eyes are very sharp, and at this time, it is also to see how the director trains the actors. This is a very important experience for Song Yimian. Even if he is not selected, this trip will still be there. harvested.
So Song Yimian put on a mask and followed Shen Huai and Ye Cang, who was fully armed, into Chu Meibo's dressing room.
Yes, this audition is with makeup and hair.
Chu Meibo was wearing a well-fitting cheongsam, revealing slender and fair arms, her hair was permed into large curls like a hand-pushing wave, the original willow leaf eyebrows were trimmed thinner, and the end of her eyes was slightly elongated, showing a little more. In a seductive state, the red lips are slightly hooked, and the smile is not a smile.
Sitting in front of the vanity mirror, she raised her eyelids slightly and glanced at the person who came in.
The three were stunned.
The description of Cheng Yanxin in "Red Ling" suddenly appeared in Song Yimian's mind. The book described her as a woman who came out of the picture. Song Yimian had never understood what this meant, but when she saw this After seeing Chu Meibo, he immediately understood.
Shen Huai and Ye Cang almost thought they saw Gu Mei in a ghost state.
The makeup artist's sister clutched her chest and put her hands together: "Sister Mei, can I take two pictures for you? I won't spread it out, just keep it private."
Hearing her words, Chu Meibo smiled slightly, and instantly changed from a cold and charming movie star back to their familiar appearance.
Shen Huai came back to his senses: "Let's go to the studio first."
Chu Meibo nodded, several people walked out of the dressing room, and bumped into the actor Fu Cheng who had already changed his clothes and put on his makeup.
Fu Cheng was wearing a suit, his hair was combed up and fixed with hairspray, and a pair of black-rimmed round glasses was placed on his nose, which slightly blocked the sharpness of his eyebrows. Just looking at his appearance, he completely looked like a rich boy from the Republic of China.
Fu Cheng arrived yesterday and had dinner with the director and a few main creators. Naturally, he knew that Chu Meibo was the one who played Cheng Yanxin, and he was already shocked at that time. He has worked with Chu Meibo in "Traveling with History" and knows that her acting skills are very good, but her qualifications are too shallow.
However, Fu Cheng thought deeply, even if he thought so, he wouldn't show it on the face, and because he had cooperated with Chu Meibo, he appeared to be more familiar.
Fu Cheng knew in his heart that "The Red Lion" was a big heroine, but Zhou Hanchen's role was also very good. If the person playing Cheng Yanxin is a first- and second-tier actress, he naturally wants to make way for the heroine. In that case, it would be better to play with a young rookie like Chu Meibo who has no reputation for acting skills, so as not to steal his limelight. .
Although Fu Cheng signed a contract with Guan Rui and had countless resources, it was not easy to find a good book.
Thinking of this, Fu Cheng no longer disliked Chu Meibo's lack of qualifications. He took the initiative to say hello, and the two walked towards the set.
At this moment, the dressing room on the other side also opened, and a man in a neon military uniform with a mustache on his lips came out.
As soon as Fu Cheng saw his attire, he guessed his identity. Is this the actor playing Yokota
When the actor was not there at dinner yesterday, he slapped the director and the producer, but they all had weird expressions on their faces, saying that he would get to know him when he auditioned today.
Fu Cheng looked at the other party's face and felt that it was a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
Song Yimian, who was following behind Chu Meibo, took a step back with a pale face.
—
When they arrived on the set, Director Xie was already waiting there, and when he saw the images of the three, he showed a satisfied smile.
The appearance of an actor is very important. After all, if you don’t even have a shape, how can you achieve both shape and spirit? In terms of appearance, these three are very suitable for the original characters.
Director Xie asked the actors to say the words, and then walked through it. When Director Xie felt that the state was right, he used the camera to shoot.
This is Director Xie's consistent shooting technique, and it is also to familiarize the actors in advance.
Today is the audition of several main actors, who are present, in addition to the crew and actors, agents and assistants are also present. Shen Huai didn't get too close, Song Yimian stood behind him obediently, staring intently at the studio.
The first scene was the scene between Chu Meibo and Fu Cheng, and it was also the opposite scene from the first audition.
The lines of the two are very good, and they passed it directly the first time.
Chu Meibo's performance was astonishing as always, and Fu Cheng couldn't make a mistake, but Director Xie slapped his lips, feeling that he wasn't as hearty as the last time he watched Chu Meibo and Guo Wenyuan.
The two tried three scenes, and the results were very good. Director Xie also put aside his little confusion.
Chu Meibo and Fu Cheng went to the side to rest, the next scene was Guo Wenyuan and Fu Cheng's play, and Chu Meibo went to the side to touch up the makeup first.
Guo Wenyuan slowly stood up from the chair, reached out and brushed the hem of his clothes, and smoothed the folds with both hands. With such a simple action, the momentum around him seemed to suddenly change.
Fu Cheng took a sip of water, and Yu Guang was stunned when he saw this scene.
After a while, he heard the voice of the assistant director calling him, quickly put down the water glass, calmed down his mood, and then walked in front of the other party.
But seeing each other frontally, the familiarity is even stronger.
Fu Cheng was a little puzzled, where on earth had he seen this person
As the assistant director called to start, Fu Cheng immediately calmed down and immersed himself in the role.
In this scene, Cheng Yanxin's identity was revealed and he was locked in the Neon headquarters. Zhou Hanchen got into a club that Hengtian often went to, and wanted to threaten Hengtian with a gun and let Cheng Yanxin go. .
Zhou Hanchen held up the gun, pointed it steadily at Yokota's head, and said coldly, "Leave the inkstone, or I will kill you with one shot."
However, Yokota took a piece of sushi with chopsticks and ate it into his mouth contentedly. After chewing and swallowing it, he chuckled: "Kill me, you can't escape."
The filming has not officially started yet, and it is naturally impossible to prepare sushi in this segment, so it is Guo Wenyuan's performance without physical objects.
Fu Cheng, who also pointed a gun at him, felt nervous. As we all know, to judge an actor's performance, eating is a very important part. Real food, fake food, natural food, and emotion are not one thing. Simple things.
But Guo Wenyuan did it.
Yokota is cunning and cunning, he went to pick up sushi, not because he was not afraid, but used this action to cover up his inner fear and think about countermeasures at the same time.
His movements were slow, but steady, because he was afraid that Zhou Hanchen would find out if he was too impatient. Although he was eating sushi, he kept observing Zhou Hanchen with his peripheral vision.
This short performance of a few seconds shows many details, which are delicate and shocking.
This was seen in the eyes of outsiders, but in Fu Cheng's heart, he felt a familiar despair.
The Guo Wenyuan in front of him clearly looked completely different, but it reminded him of his former teacher, Du Yuping.
Before joining Guanrui, Fu Cheng was an artist of Yixing Film Company. Like Du Yuping, he was an actor who was excavated and cultivated by Yixing Film Company.
Probably because of the same experience, coupled with Fu Cheng’s talent, Du Yuping has been teaching him all the time. The former Fu Cheng was also grateful to Du Yuping, but I don’t know when it started, this gratitude gradually deteriorated and became Jealousy, and despair.
When he climbed higher and higher on the peak of the performance, he realized that Du Yuping was simply a monster. He was like this big mountain. The higher he climbed, the more terrifying he could realize.
But the actor in front of him, like Du Yuping, gave him the same feeling.
At this moment, the positions of the two seemed to be suddenly reversed. It was clearly Zhou Hanchen standing with a gun, but his aura was far inferior to that of Yokota, who was kneeling on the ground with a calm expression.
In other words, Zhou Hanchen was completely suppressed by Yokota.
Director Xie seemed to realize something, his expression gradually became serious, and he looked at the performance of the two more seriously.
The assistant director also saw the problem and asked in a low voice, "Director Xie, is this... the state of the two of them is not right?"
Unexpectedly, Director Xie ignored him, and his clenched brows gradually stretched: "Interesting! Interesting!"
