On the day of filming, Qi Yan, Yu Kongjing and other leading actors arrived early.
Because I had a duel in advance, I got into the mood very quickly. Since Qi Yan, the 'ghost', was not needed to appear at the beginning, he took this opportunity to get to know a few other supporting characters.
Although they are supporting characters, they are actually seniors. Playing the role of 'Qiao Xin's' friend 'Ah Qiang' is Liu Xiongjian, the winner of the Golden Crane Award for Best Supporting Actor. Because he is honest and honest, he is considered a kind and righteous person in the circle.
The actor who plays the role of the crazy and silly woman 'Zhao Jie'er' is Mu Xi, who is also an unknown senior. Compared with other people's hype to gain attention and so on, she always just talks about her strength.
The last major supporting character is Zhang Sen, the veteran drama star Qi Yan mentioned at the beginning. He plays the role of an old man who rents the house to 'Qiao Xin' and 'Ah Qiang'. Everyone calls him 'Grandpa' in the play.
After about four or five days of shooting everywhere, Qi Yan put on his own costume and performed his first act.
'Qiaoxin' and 'Qiangzi' were faced with the situation of sleeping on the street in the kitchen because they missed the time to book a hotel. At this time, the words 'Daily Rent' were posted on the second floor of an ancient building next to the river.
The two found the landlord who lived on the first floor, a sullen old man and a foolish woman. Although Qiao Xin felt strange, she decided to rent it in order not to live on the street.
Qiangzi was relatively simple and honest. When he learned that it would be cheaper to rent it for seven days, he shouted that this house was prepared for them because their trip happened to be seven days.
I decided to spend the night of the seventh night in this clean but inexplicably strange hut.
Then came Qi Yan's first scene. Qiao Xin turned off the lights at night and was lying on the bed scrolling through Weibo. Suddenly she felt footsteps coming from the corridor outside the door, softly and shallowly reaching her ears.
Qiangzi and Qiao Xin lived across the street, and Qiao Xin thought Qiangzi was up at night so she didn't care. But ten minutes later, he vaguely heard that the footsteps were still there.
Step by step, very orderly, not impatient, as if he lifted up after lightly tapping the ground.
… Cat-like steps? Not really, but more like... a thief.
Qiao Xin sat up and turned on the light, took out the prepared electric baton from his bag, and slowly opened the door.
There was a long corridor with a few dim wall lamps flickering. There was a staircase at one end and a window at the other end. This small building is very simple, with a staircase leading up, two rooms on both sides, and a window at the end, which is also blocked by a gauze curtain.
The moment he came out, the sound of footsteps disappeared. Qiao Xin looked at the stairs in confusion, but there was no one there. Turning her head, she found that the gauze covering the window was suddenly blown up, and Qiao Xin vaguely saw a figure standing in the hazy place.
Qiao Xin was startled. When she blinked and looked again, she saw that the place was empty except for the gauze lifted by the breeze.
This is Qi Yan's first scene. He needs to stand behind the curtain to show this shot with a different kind of beauty, and there will be an exclusive lens for Qi Yan.
So horror needs to be redefined, because the 'ghost' Qi Yan is so beautiful.
Qi Yan was wearing a white robe and standing behind the curtain. His slightly long hair outlined a different kind of beauty. When the blower blows the gauze, Qi Yan needs to take a faint look at Yu Kongjing to give the cameraman enough time to capture it.
"Do this part again, Qi Yan, find your own feeling. This look is very important."
Qi Yan does not have many lines in this drama. It can be said that his expression and eyes support the entire character. This is a very difficult challenge for Qi Yan.
What is the idea behind 'Mo Shuisheng'? When he sees 'Qiao Xin' whom he has never seen before, how should he treat him
Mo Shuisheng is just a ghost.
Qi Yan struggled and thought, but had no clue. After several scenes, Qi Yan still couldn't find his form. The director seemed to know that this was not an easy job, so he asked Qi Yan to come down and film other people's scenes first.
Sitting on his bench, Qi Yan flipped through the information on 'Mo Shuisheng' in the script and fell into deep thought.
Mo Shuisheng is an wronged soul. He doesn't want to leave and wants to continue to stay in this world. He felt wronged by the unfair treatment he had received, and he was even more unwilling to lose his life at such a passing time.
Qiao Xin was considered his peer, and no one had come to this room for a long time. Does Mo Shuisheng like or dislike this person of his age
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Qi Yan stood up and came to the director's side happily.
"Director, I'm ready."
Surprised that Qi Yan, who had always been docile, could be so excited, the director nodded, hoping that Qi Yan could really bring him a different surprise.
It was still the same scene, Qi Yan stood in front of the window after applying makeup, with gauze in front of him.
Tell yourself in your heart that as long as you look at Yu Kongjing lightly, you can find the feeling.
You are Mo Shuisheng, not Qi Yan.
In the next second, I entered the state and everything was ready to continue. After the director made the plan, it started.
Qiao Xin glanced at the direction of the stairs and found that there was nothing there. She turned to look at the end of the corridor and suddenly saw a figure, standing looming behind the tulle lifted by the wind.
Qiao Xin was shocked. He stared in that direction with wide eyes and found that the man was also looking at him at the moment.
The moment she was touched by that gaze, Qiao Xin was frozen in place.
What kind of emotion is contained in the eyes? Curious, indifferent, but with a trace of sadness. This man seemed to want to say something to himself, but something else was blocking him, preventing him from saying...
Qiao Xin took a step forward unconsciously, and in the blink of an eye, the figure disappeared.
“…”
"Okay, stop! Very good!"
Yu Kongjing couldn't help but stretched out his hand, wanting to touch it, but was interrupted by the director.
Because there was no way to edit this scene, he could only hide behind the props next to him after Qi Yan appeared. For Yu Kongjing, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As if they were surprised by Qi Yan's acting skills, both the director and screenwriter gave Qi Yan a rare compliment.
Yu Kongjing looked at Qi Yan who was surrounded by everyone, turned around with a confused expression, and returned to his rest area.
The man just now... seemed to have changed his appearance. It became unknown and unfamiliar to him.
Maybe the two of them were not very familiar with each other to begin with, and he was closer to the actor Jian Qing than to himself.
I want to touch unconsciously. This is a feeling I have never felt towards Qin Miaoshi...
Qi Yan is like a piece of jade, not dazzling, but people can't put it down.
Such him has exceeded Yu Kongjing's original estimate.
—All wrong.
[Yu Kongjing’s favorability towards Qi Yan is +5, current favorability: 60]
