Lin Yanran and Gu Siye felt that there was something wrong with the script.

As a director, Guo Fang naturally discovered it first.

As a script, it's okay to be melodramatic, and it's okay to superimpose elements, after all, these audiences love to watch it.

But the problem is that the emotional scenes and twists written by Sun Hangyi feel too forced.

The overall plot and even the political intrigues of the script are well written, but the details are really unbearable to read.

The most touching thing about a love drama is not the melodrama, but the emotional entanglement between the protagonists. Melodrama is only a means of promotion; emotion is the foundation.

But the love story that Sun Hang wrote was all about, I love you, you betrayed me and I hate you, and there was no foreshadowing at all later, it directly wrote that Sheng Zhao jumped off the building because he could not forgive Sheng Yi for threatening him with his family's lives.

The way this love story is written is like someone grabbing a handful of uncooked rice and stuffing it directly into someone's mouth, which makes people want to roll their eyes.

On the day of the shoot, Guo Fang arrived at the scene early and started to scold Sun Hang as soon as he saw him.

"Didn't your master teach you not to be too hard on the details of your feelings?"

Sun Hang was a little scared, but he said helplessly: "I am really afraid of emotional scenes. I tried my best."

Guo Fang felt that Sun Hangyi was talking nonsense.

He opened his mouth and wanted to scold the other person directly, but his eyes fell on somewhere.

Two staff members were moving equipment at the door.

The two of them were discussing today's play.

"Why is Guo Fang the one taking the photo for our group?"

"I don't know. They even asked us to sign a confidentiality agreement. It's so mysterious about who the guest performers are."

"Is it because the person they invited is too low-profile or too famous? I'm really curious."

"Is there any big shot who can take over these days? Unless he..."

Before he finished speaking, two figures walked into the shed one after the other on the carpet five meters in front of them.

The two workers almost smashed the machines they were working on.

Why is Gu Siye here? ?

The production team kept it a secret, and only Guo Fang and the art director knew about it.

Even the screenwriter Sun Hangyi didn’t know.

So now that Gu Siye and Lin Yanran appeared here together, the on-site staff, especially the younger ones, were all thinking “WTF?”

Is the program crew so awesome!!!

This can also be invited to support the scene!!

After the surprise, many people began to look at Lin Yanran with envy.

A newcomer with no acting experience, his partner in his screen debut is actually a top movie star and a top director.

With such a configuration, if they took a photo and posted it on WeChat Moments, saying that they were with a top group, no one would doubt it.

Gu Siye and Lin Yanran walked up to Guo Fang. When the three of them were talking, Sun Hangyi on the side was stunned.

He never dreamed that the melodramatic bone drama he wrote with great effort would have such a strong cast to perform.

"What kind of shit luck do I have?"

As a screenwriter specializing in criminal investigation and suspense, the actor he dreams of working with is Gu Siye.

After all, who hasn’t seen his performance in Ambition? He was so mysterious and cool.

However, when his dream finally came true today, he found out that the local people were just there to perform in his ridiculous and bloody drama.

After realizing this, Sun Hangyi suddenly felt that Guo Fang's criticism of him was quite good.

If Teacher Gu saw his awkward love scenes, he would probably have to carve out a dreamy Barbie castle.

However, he soon found out that he was wrong.

Gu Siye first took Lin Yanran to familiarize herself with the landing position.

Lin Yanran had experience in shooting Gu Siye’s MV before, and she was also very smart, so she adapted quickly.

Guo Fang took the script and specifically told Lin Yanran about the scene that was about to be filmed.

Although he has a sharp tongue, he is very careful in doing things. Considering that Lin Yanran has never acted in a movie before, he explained the play to him in great detail.

Then Lin Yanran went to get her hair done.

Lin Yanran's makeup was done in the style of a sick beauty, and it took her longer than Gu Siye's.

He was looking down and silently memorizing his lines when he heard someone talking to him from behind.

"Royal brother, what are your lines?"

Through the makeup mirror, Lin Yanran saw Gu Siye wearing ancient costume for the first time.

He was wearing a plain blue robe with dark patterns on the lapels and cuffs.

Blue clothes are very picky. Many male celebrities not only look unattractive when wearing them, but also look disastrous.

But Gu Siye is tall and has a unique temperament.

Wearing this outfit, he looks heroic and elegant, with a touch of grace and grace.

Lin Yanran thought that Teacher Gu was also very good-looking.

He really wanted to compliment the other person, but there was a makeup artist present, so he held back and answered in Sheng Zhao's tone.

"Okay, my brother."

The two looked at each other through the mirror.

Gu Siye found a chair and sat down next to Lin Yanran, and spoke his lines first.

Although he is not a professional actor, Gu Siye's dialogue skills are better than many professional actors.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he immediately got into character, and brought Lin Yanran into the play as well.

Lin Yanran had thought about what kind of person Sheng Yi would be before.

But as soon as Gu Siye's voice came out, the image in his mind froze here.

Lin Yanran followed Gu Siye's emotions and continued with the rest of the lines.

He had practiced this before under the guidance of his teacher and Gu Siye, but he was not proficient after all, and there were always some places where the emotions were not rendered well.

Whenever he had a question, Gu Siye would patiently demonstrate and correct him.

Over and over again, without any impatience.

The makeup artist listened while doing the styling.

After the two of them finished rehearsing their words, he couldn't help but say, "Teacher Gu is so thoughtful."

Then he added, "Teacher Yanran, you have a good memory and learn very quickly."

After Lin Yanran finished putting on her makeup, she walked towards the set with Gu Siye.

In just a short while, the news that Gu Siye came to save the situation spread throughout the entire crew.

When the two arrived at the shooting location, the staff who had nothing to do surrounded them intentionally or unintentionally.

Lin Yanran was dressed in white, her long hair was as black as ink, not stained by any dust.

Because of his frailty, the makeup artist painted his makeup to look like a sickly beauty. The makeup looked very light, and he looked fragile yet a bit pitiful.

It is so beautiful that many people are stunned at first sight and can't help but look back for another look.

Lin Yanran lowered her head and walked, remembering her movements and the props around her.

When I looked up again, a strand of hair was playfully draped over my shoulder.

When Gu Siye saw this, he naturally reached out and helped him tidy up his hair.

Seeing this scene, many people at the scene felt the CP atmosphere between the two.

So everyone couldn't help but start looking forward to what the forbidden orthopedic love they will film next will be like.

Because of the previous resignation controversy, Guo Fang took into account the special nature of the subject matter. In order to make the filming smoother, he called the two together before filming to give them psychological support.

"We will have some intimate scenes like holding hands. If you feel out of place while acting, just remember that it is just acting. It has nothing to do with gender, it is only about love and hate. Don't think too much about it. In short, our goal is to act it out smoothly, right?"

Lin Yanran glanced at Gu Siye, and the other party was also looking at him.

The moment they smiled at each other, Guo Fang's words came to his mind. For some reason, he suddenly felt like he and Gu Siye were in a relationship at public expense.

When everything was ready, the script supervisor made the call.

As the crisp sound of the clapperboard rang out, the filming of "Imperial Power" officially began.

Because this skit is almost entirely melodramatic and high-energy, Guo Fang didn't want to make it too dramatic right from the start, so he shot a more tender scene in the first scene.

Light lanterns during the Lantern Festival.

Sheng Zhao was reading a book when the curtain at the door was lifted.

It was the middle of winter, and a gust of cold air blew in along with the visitor.

"Xiao Zhao, why did you get out of bed?"

When Sheng Yi saw that Sheng Zhao was not resting on the bed but was reading a book in a thin coat, he immediately walked up to him and confiscated the book from his hand.

Sheng Zhao was weak and would fall ill every winter, and this year was no exception.

Seeing his brother coming back, Sheng Zhao, who had been expressionless, smiled faintly. His eyes sparkled when he looked at his brother, and he seemed to be in much better spirits than usual.

"I have been lying in bed for more than a month, but I recovered a few days ago. Today is the Lantern Festival, and I heard that people are lighting lanterns outside. Can my brother take me to see them?"

When Sheng Yi took the book away, he felt the coldness of Sheng Zhao's fingertips.

He didn't reply, but took off his thick cloak and put it on the other person.

After a while, seeing that the other party had not reacted, Sheng Yi walked to the door first, then turned back and stretched out his hand to Sheng Zhao, jokingly saying, "Not going?"

Sheng Zhao put his hand into the other person's palm.

As the two walked in sync, Sheng Zhao said, "I heard that the most beautiful place to watch the lanterns is the Zhaixing Tower."

He didn't continue the rest of the sentence.

Sheng Yi sighed helplessly, "You said that because you want me to take you there."

The Zhaixing Tower is five stories high, and it would be very difficult for Sheng Zhao to climb up with his body.

Originally, Sheng Yi wanted to tell him about this, but seeing Sheng Zhao's great anticipation, he held back.

The two brothers came to the Zhaixing Tower.

As expected, Sheng Zhao was already panting after climbing only two floors.

"Brother, you go up first. I'll take a rest before climbing up."

Sheng Zhao covered his chest and gasped in place, secretly regretting that his broken body had spoiled his mood.

When I looked up, I suddenly saw the person in front of me lifted up his skirt and squatted in front of me.

"Come on up, I'll carry you."

Sheng Zhao stared at his brother's back and his face suddenly turned red.

"I can climb up."

"Come up! By the time you climb up, all the lanterns will be lit."

Sheng Zhao stood there in a daze for a moment, then gently leaned his body against his brother's back.

He placed his hands gently on his brother's shoulders, his eyes flashing with excitement and joy.

His brother hasn't carried him on his back for many years.

He remembered that when he was a child, his boots stepped on water and he didn't want to walk. His brother was the same. With a helpless and cold face, he carried him all the way back to the bedroom.

When he reached the fourth floor, Sheng Zhao felt that time had passed so quickly.

Recently, because of the fight for the throne and his physical illness, he hasn't had a good time with his brother for a long time.

Seeing that the terrace was right in front of him, he hesitated for a moment and then gently leaned his face on the other's back.

But this action was too intimate, and he was afraid that the other party would notice his abnormal feelings, so he just made this gesture and did not really lean his face forward.

Guo Fang pointed at Lin Yanran on the monitor and said to Sun Hangyi beside him, "Did you see that? The back and the fear of leaning on each other, the emotional tension between the two brothers is revealed."

After saying that, he looked at Lin Yanran's expression carefully again.

From the surprise when Sheng Yi said he wanted to carry him, to the trance and disbelief when he was really carried on his back, and finally hiding his forbidden feelings for his brother.

Every look and expression is just right.

His eyes are sharp, unlike some actors who have dull eyes and look no different from a blind person when they open their eyes.

Soon, Sheng Yi carried Sheng Zhao to the terrace on the top floor of Zhaixing Tower.

At this time, hundreds of lanterns have been placed in the starry sky.

Some are far away, some have just risen, and the orange light is particularly beautiful.

Sheng Yi also bought one.

He handed the lantern to Sheng Zhao and asked him, "You write the words."

Sheng Zhao held the pen and wrote four big words on it without thinking for a moment.

Peace and joy.

Sheng Yi saw that what he wrote was so simple, so he asked him before lighting the lanterns, "Why don't you write down some other wishes?"

Sheng Zhao smiled lightly, but shook his head gently, "I've already promised it."

His greatest wish is that his brother, the Emperor, is safe and happy.

When Sheng Yi was lighting the lanterns, Sheng Zhao secretly looked up at the other person who had his back to him.

His eyes no longer contained the usual cautious and careful look, fearing that his brother would know about his unethical feelings for him.

Instead, they look at each other lovingly, carefully and greedily.

Thousands of lanterns are not as bright as one person.

Guo Fang moved the camera closer and captured the look Lin Yanran gave Gu Si Ye.

When playing chess, his eyes were always hidden and restrained.

But when the other person can't see, the deep love in the eyes is so warm.

The emotion is real, just like he really likes Gu Siye.

Lin Yanran's expression was so precise and precise that it established the most crucial logical connection for the dry emotional line written by Sun Hangyi.

Sheng Zhao's love for Sheng Yi is like a burning fire. They spend every day together. How could Sheng Yi, such a scheming person, not feel the temperature of this fire and realize his brother's feelings for him?

Precisely because he had noticed it a long time ago, he endured the humiliation and deliberately made some ambiguous moves from time to time to keep his brother hanging for so many years.

A look of admiration from the two people and a gesture of carrying someone on their backs brought this originally pale scene to life.

Guo Fang felt that Sun Hangyi was really lucky.

The emotional scenes in his script were terrible, but the two guest actors helped him make up for all these shortcomings.

This scene was done in one take.

The sharp-tongued Guo Fang didn't say anything extra after the photo shoot. He only said three words to Lin Yanran, "Very good."

In the following time, Lin Yanran and Gu Siye filmed some other scenes. Although there were some NGs, it went very smoothly overall.

The two of them kept filming until the evening, and Guo Fang finally let them go home.

Before leaving get off work, the other party said to the two, "Go back and prepare. We will shoot Breakup and Imprisonment tomorrow."
