Chapter 190
Everyone should have a sense of crisis that "I might be left behind"
In November, the crew of "Under the Wave" started filming.
Unlike all the opening ceremonies Ling Suisui had attended in the past, today the crew did not worship gods or burn incense. There were no feudal superstitious elements at all. After all, provincial leaders came to speak and announce the establishment of a temporary party branch.
When taking a group photo, leading actors such as Ling Suisui tacitly stood to the side, leaving the middle position for the leader.
Not only entertainment media but also local official media and newspapers took photos below the stage. Ling Suisui also accepted interviews from reporters.
She actually didn't expect it to be such a big deal. Later, after listening to Tong Xiaoman, she realized that the local Cultural and Tourism Bureau attached great importance to this project. Which city doesn't want to become a new "Internet celebrity check-in point"?
This is not just about making a name for yourself - online traffic can be converted into real money from tourism revenue. It's something that helps economic development, so there's no reason not to support it.
Well, Ling Suisui felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavier.
The more people say it is "definitely going to be a hit" or "definitely a masterpiece", the more cautious she will be. How many predecessors have failed when they were at the peak of their careers? She must learn from this.
After attending the opening ceremony, the actors who had stood and listened to the leader’s speech for an hour were finally able to take a break. Ling Sui returned to the RV and drank a glass of warm water to calm himself down.
The coordinator of Inspur was someone she had worked with before and was poached from Antenna. Don't underestimate the importance of coordination. Whether she can communicate well with the director and do a good job of on-site scheduling directly determines whether each actor is in a good state during filming.
After all, if you stay up late for several days in a row, even a god won’t be able to hold on. Forget about performing beyond your expectations or breaking through yourself; being able to recite the lines with your eyes open is a victory.
The coordinator obviously did not disappoint Ling Sui. She arranged the scenes for the first day of filming very well, with the most characters appearing, which facilitated further ice-breaking between the leading actors, and everyone's scenes were relatively easy literary dramas.
"I'll let her be the coordinator when I'm filming in the future." Ling Suisui said to Tong Xiaoman firmly, "Everything else is fine. I'll bring the coordinator into the group in the future."
Tong Xiaoman nodded. The position of coordinator in the crew is very important and requires high personal abilities. She suggested that this coordinator be absorbed into Harvest Media and be given the position of vice president.
Ling Suisui: "No problem, just pay more attention to the company's operations and discuss the general direction with me."
She opened the script and reviewed her lines. Today's scene would start filming at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The plot to be filmed is: Li Li's admission letter was sent, she was admitted to the university, and the whole family was very happy. The Li family invited people to dinner, and Li wanted to bring Chen Hai with him, but Li Tian, the eldest brother of the Li family, also invited Yan Xuejun. After all, Li Li borrowed Yan Xuejun's notes when she was reviewing.
Thanks to Yan Xuejun for being reasonable, but Li Tian’s purpose is not simple. He was not optimistic about Li Xiang and Chen Hai, and was determined to help his sister and Yan Xuejun remarry.
Ling Suisui found this scene from the script page. Although helping with cooking and sitting down to eat were easy to film, her lines were not less at all.
She had to listen to the advice of her brother, sister-in-law, parents and neighbors. Chen Hai and Yan Xuejun were competing with each other and causing trouble for her. She had to settle their quarrel and have a few heartfelt words with her sister. She was the busiest person in the whole place.
By the way, Li Xiang had already made some money at that time, and many of her relatives asked her about her income in a roundabout way, and many of them had ulterior motives in their hearts, so she had to deal with this. Thinking of this, Ling Sui no longer felt that this scene was easy.
On the issue of "having meals with relatives is tiring", Editor Tang managed to restore reality and transcend reality. It is simply a VCR case that answers the question "Why young people don't like visiting relatives".
When Ling Suisui was preparing for filming, discussions about "Under the Wave" were once again flooding the Internet.
Because Inspur did a good job of keeping the secret, and Ling Suisui distracted most of the attention, the other leading actors were not officially announced until the start of filming.
Li Yuanqing is in his thirties this year, and no one regards him as a traffic star. Huang Rui, on the other hand, is still among the 95 generation and was quickly dubbed "Emperor Rui" by the entertainment group and was also jokingly called the 3.0 version of the 1995 boy.
The "two generations" before him were naturally Li Mingxu and Chen Yuening.
Emperor Xu has already exploded, Emperor Ning is still tearing the calendar, and Emperor Rui has already joined the luxury package. It's really true that the new generation is better than the old one~
For such voices, Sui Si’s response is just one word: get lost. The heroine never cares about the fate of the pendant.
However, Li Mingxu's fans can't sit still anymore, and some big fans have taken the lead in saying that they will protect their rights from the studio, and that they can no longer give second place to traffic flowers. Currently, the only 85 flowers in the domestic entertainment industry who can suppress Li Mingxu, so we have to see who they are!
No matter what other people thought when they heard this, Li Mingxu was the first to be shocked.
He is not, he didn’t, please don’t talk nonsense!
Li Mingxu was terrified and didn't understand how his fans could be so crazy. Ji Zhaoying, who was surfing 5G, couldn't stop laughing after hearing about this. She felt that her great revenge had been achieved and he deserved it!
There is no way. The more the fan circle lacks something, the harder they have to work to prove it. He is truly carried away by the flowers, and his fans cannot bear to hear the word "pendant" more than others, because it really hurts them.
Ji Zhaoying, feeling refreshed, shared this matter with Ling Suisui during lunch time, and Ling Suisui shrugged.
Traffic is a double-edged sword. Xiao Li still has a long way to go in the future. I hope he can be stronger.
Everyone thought that ascending to heaven overnight was a great thing, but until the moment of backlash, they realized that the gift given by fate had already been secretly marked with a price.
Chen Yuening, who was also pulled out, had long been desensitized. After all, he was used to it when filming "Perfect Life";
The newly-minted “Emperor Rui” is actually a bit exciting. Even if this title is more of a joke and irony at present, as long as the performance is strong enough, there are many examples in the entertainment industry of turning derogatory titles into respectful titles, like the “Emperor of the Year” and “God of the Year” that are right before our eyes, aren’t they?
Huang Rui decided to learn from Ling Suisui, and the first step was to follow her direction of effort.
He originally thought that learning from her that she never forgot her lines while filming on the set was already impressive enough, because this not only requires the actor to remember them, but also to remember them very well. Only when the proficiency reaches a certain level can accidents be prevented from happening.
Huang Rui also recited his lines over and over again, determined to never lose to Ling Sui on stage. After all, he debuted earlier than her, so he could be considered a senior.
Moreover, Ling Suisui and Li Yuanqing are both from the Film Academy. As a graduate of the Central Academy of Drama, it is time for him to bring honor to his alma mater!
Huang Rui went up there full of confidence, but when he arrived at the scene, he felt that things were a little off.
With the endorsement of the Provincial Propaganda Department, "Under the Wave" also has a specific story location. Therefore, Ling Suisui also learned a few commonly used local dialects as the character's catchphrases.
Because Inspur is a project with a strong sense of life, her speaking a few lines in dialect other than the lines not only does not feel abrupt, but also makes the character of Li Xiang more vivid and down-to-earth.
Moreover, it was not only Ling Suisui who spoke in dialect on the spot, but also Song Lingshan. From the perspective of role relationships, it is very reasonable for the two sisters to have similar habits.
Huang Rui: …
What can he say? He can't blame Ling Suisui for not telling him in advance. What obligation does Ling Suisui have to teach his colleagues hand in hand? If he said so, it would be equivalent to putting himself in a position to listen to Teacher Ling's guidance on acting, and he would really become what others call a "pendant".
No, with Huang Rui's character, he would never allow himself to fall to that level. He just made fun of Li Mingxu with his trumpet this morning!
After observing Huang Rui's expression, Ling Sui roughly guessed what he was thinking.
Well, this made Ling Sui very satisfied. In her crew, every leading actor has to have a sense of crisis that "I might be left behind", including herself.
The assistant reminded that the lighting in another venue had been adjusted, and Ling Sui walked to the kitchen.
The content of this scene is that Li Xiang and his sister-in-law are busy in the kitchen. Li Xiang is shredding potatoes and his sister-in-law is chopping pork ribs.
Both actors had memorized their lines, but there was a problem - the actress playing the sister-in-law didn't know how to chop pork ribs, which is a technical job.
The director was very considerate of her and asked her to just chop the air and they would find an angle to shoot. Let the close-up scene of chopping ribs be left to the stand-in.
The actress originally thought that Ling Suisui was also cutting the air, but when the machine was moved over here, she saw that Ling Suisui was actually cutting a peeled potato!
And she was very good at cutting. With just a flick of the knife, she could cut the potatoes into thin slices that looked a bit like potato chips. She then arranged them at an angle, and when the sharp knife ran over them to cut into shreds, it felt like a chef showing off her skills, and the sound was particularly relaxing.
The actress was so stunned that she even forgot to say her lines. When the director called for cut and Ling Suisui looked at her, she came to her senses and quickly said sorry.
She still couldn't help asking, "Sui Sui, have you ever been a chef before?"
"No." Ling Suisui smiled, "I did learn some cutting techniques before, and I reviewed them when I knew I was going to shoot this scene. At the moment, I'm only good at cutting potatoes, so if I were asked to cut anything else, I'd be exposed."
Let her think about it… The last time she learned cooking was when she was a freshman in college. Tang Bing took her to a lifestyle variety show and she wanted to perform more in front of the camera.
Although that effort didn't make much of a splash, Ling Suisui didn't feel that her efforts were in vain. Look, isn’t this skill being used now? In this world, the only things you have learned will never betray you.
Ling Suisui: "I think it would be better to be more realistic, because the way the hands exert force is different, and the movement of the arms will also affect the micro-expressions on the face and a series of reaction states."
Acting without props is indeed a quality that an actor should possess, but Ling Suisui feels that this is really impossible to do in reality and can only settle for the next best option. Actors should not be lazy if they can do it themselves.
The actress next to her couldn't help but blush with shame. The script had been given to her a long time ago and she knew there was this scene. If you are willing, learning how to chop ribs is not a big deal, and it is definitely easier than shredding potatoes...
Although Ling Suisui found a way out for her by saying that the props were not well prepared by the crew and the knife was not friendly for a kitchen novice to chop ribs, the actress still felt hot on her face and had to fight hard to resist the urge to lower her head to find a crack in the ground.
She tried to find a topic dryly: "I didn't expect you would find time to learn this."
"Well, practicing this can improve my concentration, and I can change my mind." Ling Suisui said, "Practicing this with a kitchen knife actually has many benefits. It can improve your cooking skills, your arms, and you can also make some calluses on your palms. I am an educated youth who came back from the countryside."
Hearing her say this, the actress remembered that before the filming of The Wave started, she and her friends had talked about Ling Suisui.
Colleagues envy Ling Sui's career luck. Winning the Best Actress award is already impressive. The key point is that she is still so young and has no shortcomings in any field. Being in the same era as her is really stressful.
Someone made a few sarcastic remarks at the dinner table, and the tone was not harsh. But soon another friend who had worked with Ling Suisui said that her life seemed to be blessed, but anyone who had come into contact with her would know that her success was no accident, and would definitely be convinced by her.
The actress didn't quite believe it at the time, but now she completely understands it.
No wonder she is so successful... No matter how high she flies in the future, she deserves it.
Ling Sui didn't know that she had triggered the passive skill of "conquering people's hearts" again. She put the chopped potatoes aside, thinking that she would ask Xiaoqing to take them away later, add some vinegar to cold water, and cook a dish in the evening.
Frugality and not wasting are traditional virtues of our country. As a public figure, she must hold herself to higher moral standards than the social average, because that's how she makes a living.
Being an idol means serving as a role model. Every step she takes must be beautiful.
