Before the start of filming in the afternoon, He Zheng gave a play to Xia Xingcheng alone.
He Zheng said: "This scene is actually very important, I don't know if you realize it?"
Xia Xingcheng silently wiped the sweat from his palm on his pants.
He Zheng asked him, "How long has Fang Jianyuan known Yu Haiyang?"
Xia Xingcheng raised his eyes and replied, "It's been a few days."
He Zheng said: "Do you feel any change in his attitude before and after this scene?"
The script in Xia Xingcheng's hand was already crumpled by him. He recalled the plot before and after, and said, "He started to care more about Yu Haiyang, and he was a little dodgy."
He Zheng rubbed his fingers, his finger pulps had been slightly yellowed by the smoke, and his body was leaning lazily on the counter of the grocery store, looking at Xia Xingcheng sitting inside: "He is tempted. Attention, it is tempting, Not in love."
Xia Xingcheng looked up at He Zheng with a serious expression.
He Zheng said: "We can shoot this scene at the back, but if you can't express the subtle difference of his temptation, I don't think your emotions can be well entered by shooting the latter part first. ."
Xia Xingcheng lowered his eyes and said, "I'm sorry."
"No, no," He Zheng said, "it's not that I'm sorry, you have to enter this role well. I think you did a good job two days ago, but today's state is not right."
Xia Xingcheng raised his right hand, supported his jaw with his palm, and put his fingers on his lips. He didn't say anything. He couldn't tell He Zheng that he was in a wrong state because he went out to play last night and slept with a woman.
He Zheng continued: "People will be tempted by many people and things, cute children, beautiful women, kittens and dogs are also possible. If it is instinctive temptation, usually they will keep chasing their eyes, want to talk, want to get close and think. To touch; but Fang Jianyuan is aware of the problem with the object, so he will avoid instinct, dodge if his eyes are not consciously chasing, and stay away if he is close, these can be reflected in many details."
Xia Xingcheng listened carefully and nodded. He had just touched up the makeup on his face, and the whole face was soft and delicate. When he was focused, the sense of purity like a college student would appear unconsciously.
The reason why He Zheng chose Xia Xingcheng to play Fang Jianyuan was because he was attracted by the look on his face, which made him feel like an old friend.
He Zheng is also patient now. After all, he chose the person himself. He didn't think he chose the wrong person, so he raised his hand and patted Xia Xingcheng's shoulder, "About these details, you might as well ponder more, why are you here? In front of the camera, Fang Jianyuan's temptation is fully displayed."
He Zheng left after saying these words.
Xia Xingcheng looked at his back and watched him walk to the corner of the studio, where Yang Youming was sitting and resting. After He Zheng walked over, he said something to Yang Youming, Yang Youming glanced in the direction of Xia Xingcheng, and then raised his head to speak to He Zheng.
The distance was too far, and Xia Xingcheng didn't know what the two of them said, only to see Yang Youming smiling at the end. He always felt that maybe the two of them were talking about him.
He Zheng said that today's scene looks very ordinary, but it is actually a change of Fang Jianyuan's mentality.
Mom is not here today.
The worker who delivered the grocery store moved a dozen boxes of drinks and beer to the floor of the grocery store. Fang Jinyuan was almost at a loss and hurriedly counted the goods, signed the checklist handed by the worker, and then the worker Just drove away.
Fang Jianyuan was alone in the grocery store, carrying boxes of cardboard boxes into the back room for storing goods.
This was originally the first floor, and there was only one window in that room, which was more than half covered by the stacked goods, so the whole room looked extraordinarily dark.
Fang Jianyuan did not turn on the lights, nor did the room have air conditioning. He stacked the cardboard boxes neatly, and soon sweat slid down his cheeks and neck, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.
When he put a box of drinks on top, he accidentally bumped into a row of shelves next to him, and a packet of sugar fell from it.
Fang Jianyuan bent over to pick it up, and then stood on tiptoe and tried to put the bag of candy back.
A little bit.
A hand suddenly took the candy from him and put it back on the high shelf.
Fang Jianyuan was startled, turned around suddenly, bumped his back against the shelf, and saw Yu Haiyang quietly appearing behind him.
Yu Haiyang smiled at him, "How much more? I'll help you."
Fang Jianyuan glanced at the goods on the ground, but did not speak.
Yu Haiyang was wearing a clean and flat shirt, with a light and refreshing scent of perfume on his wrists. Although Fang Jianyuan did not answer him, he still raised his hand and unbuttoned the cuffs one by one, then from top to bottom, Relax the buttons at the placket.
Here is a close-up of Fang Jianyuan's expression. His eyes turned slightly with the movements of Yu Haiyang's hands. He didn't know why an adult man's undressing action attracted him so much. His expression was focused and ignorant.
Yu Haiyang took off his shirt and hung it on the shelf next to him. Under the shirt was a male body with graceful lines. From the arms to the chest to the lower abdomen that disappeared at the waistband of the trousers, every inch of muscle was just right, smooth and beautiful.
Fang Jianyuan's right hand unconsciously held the shelf behind him.
The shot here depicts Yu Haiyang's body in great detail, with a clear hint. In a sense, this is also what Fang Jianyuan saw in his eyes. In the year when his body matured at the age of 18, a new period of sexual enlightenment was opened. expected.
Yu Haiyang bent down to carry the cardboard box.
Fang Jianyuan's eyes were still chasing him, and when Yu Haiyang stood up straight, he turned his eyes away in a hurry, with an unconsciously flustered expression on his face, and then began to bend over and continue to carry the boxes, and he didn't even remember to say thank you to Yu Haiyang.
Here is a close-up of Fang Jianyuan's expression. For Xia Xingcheng of this age, if he doesn't really integrate into the character and feel his mood, it is almost impossible to express his acting skills alone.
The whole play "Fading Away" is like this. It is filled with a lot of close-ups of facial expressions and body parts. There is no inner monologue. All emotions must be expressed through eyes and actions.
The final result presented is what He Zheng, the director, wants to express to the audience, while Fang Jinyuan, an actor, wants to express what He Zheng wants him to express.
He Zheng said that you should be tempted, admired and sad, but he wouldn't say that you secretly squeeze the shelf and wait for him to see you, dodge when you see you, or cry when you cry, and how to wipe your tears.
The emotional reaction in the heart is in the expression and body. Everyone is different. Only when Xia Xingcheng fully enters the role of Fang Jianyuan, maybe it can be said differently, when Fang Jianyuan's soul occupies Xia Xingcheng's body, it will be A natural reaction, no need for someone to tell him how to act.
