On August 14, Ye Ying arrived at a film and television shooting base in the southwest and met with the crew of "Dark Fire 3". Almost all the actors in this movie are big names in the film industry, such as Han Zhiyao who plays the protagonist Fang Ye, Qin Han who plays the villain boss, Chen Dong who plays Fang Ye's colleague and good brother... All of them are experienced old actors. Only Ye Ying is acting in a movie for the first time, and she is the youngest in the whole crew. However, these actors have good personalities and tempers, and they are not dissatisfied with working with a pure person.
Han Zhiyao is 33 years old this year. He is handsome and has appeared in many martial arts action movies. In the minds of the audience, he is a handsome and manly tough guy. In private, he is also very calm. To Ye Ying, he feels a bit like Li Jingfei, the kind of particularly reliable big brother.
Chen Dong was even more enthusiastic towards Ye Ying, calling her "Xiao Ye" all the time, and frankly said that he liked their group's songs very much, which made Ye Ying quite flattered.
At 9:00 am on August 15, the crew of Dark Fire 3 officially held a start-up ceremony. It was the first time for Ye Ying to participate in such an event. Seeing the main creators of the crew walk to the offering table in turn to worship, she felt both surprised and a little moved. The start-up worship is to seek a good omen so that the filming of the movie can be completed smoothly. Whether it is writing songs or performing, the mood of the creators is the same. This kind of expectation and cherishment of their upcoming works can only be experienced by participating in it personally.
After burning incense, Zhao Yi unveiled the red velvet cloth on the camera and announced the official start of filming of "Dark Fire 3".
The applause was thunderous and the flashes were constantly clicking. The first installment of Dark Fire was a huge success and the third installment has become one of the most anticipated movies of the year, so many media reporters were at the ceremony to report the latest news.
#《Dark Fire 3》Start-up Ceremony＃ quickly became a hot topic, and movie fans were delighted. The long-awaited third part of "Dark Fire" is finally here!
[The Korean actor is still as handsome as ever! I hope he can win another Best Actor award with the third installment of Dark Fire!]
[Qin Han is here too! I guess he’s still playing the villain this time, after all, he’s a professional villain (dog head)]
[Wait, am I dazzled? The person next to Qin Han...why does she look so much like Ye Ying? ? ]
[I also discovered it, it’s Ying Ying! He also starred in “Dark Fire”! ? ]
[I went to see it, and he was really on the cast list, and he was one of the main actors! Oh my god, my idol is starring in my favorite movie? What a dream collaboration!!]
The news that Ye Ying was going to star in Dark Fire 3 spread quickly, and Ye Ying's fans were shocked. They hadn't gotten over their obsession with Ye Ying in red costume at the summer concert, and they were foolishly watching video clips every day. Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, they would see Ye Ying acting in a movie?
Even Ye Ying's fans were shocked, not to mention other netizens.
[Isn’t Ye Ying the center of Aurora? Why is he acting in a movie!?]
[My whole family was shocked. Ye Ying can act? Isn’t he a singer?]
[Nothing to be shocked about, this is all common practice for traffic stars. Aurora is a limited group, and disbanding members is probably for transformation. Ye Ying is probably testing the waters.]
[No, even if he wants to change, it’s too early, right? Aurora is still more than a year away from disbanding! As an idol, why would he bother acting in a drama instead of focusing on improving his professional skills?]
[The key is that he is involved in "Dark Fire"! My favorite! "Dark Fire" has such high reviews, this one won't be ruined by Ye Ying! No, what on earth is Zhao Yi thinking!]
[This movie is 90% going to be a failure. Don’t you remember that a member of INF acted in a romantic movie last year? The director was also a famous director, but the movie only had a 5.6 rating…]
[I really don’t understand. Ye Ying is already very popular! If she is a good idol, her fame will even be higher than many actors. Why did she suddenly go to film?]
[To make money. Which star these days would complain about having too much money? I used to be a casual fan of Ye Ying, but now I really lose my good impression of her.]
…
The trending search for Ye Ying's participation in "Dark Fire" even rushed to the top, and the comment area was in an uproar. Although fans have been arranging explanations, saying that they contacted the agency and learned that Ye Ying's role did not have many scenes, and that she would return to work after the concentrated filming, many netizens still did not buy it.
There are so many negative examples like this. I don't know how many traffic has obviously increased their popularity, and with the help of capital power, they have invested in film and television shooting, and received one script after another that is completely unsuitable for them. They are not professionally trained, and they don't have any acting skills. When they are put on the screen, they are just beautiful but pale vases. The most vivid expression is staring and biting lips. The exaggerated or stiff postures are simply unbearable to watch. But the company still wants to buy hot searches, and a large number of fans are also praising their acting skills with their eyes closed.
How could the audience not have a rebellious mentality when the aesthetic bottom line of the audience is challenged time and time again like this and consumers are treated like fools?
Therefore, the vast majority of netizens were very dissatisfied with this news. There was a lot of scolding online, and many even scolded Zhao Yi, saying that the conscience of the industry had forgotten its original intention and started to make money.
Lin Xuan's agent was also paying attention to the developments. Seeing this, he said, "I guessed that the audience's reaction would be like this. It's hard for an actor to take on a leading role, let alone an idol who crosses fields."
Lin Xuan lowered his eyes and scrolled through the screen of his phone, saying calmly: "But he does have talent."
Lin Xuan also felt it was unacceptable to receive the notification of being eliminated. Although he knew at first sight that Ye Ying's appearance was almost impeccable, the other party was an idol and her acting skills should not be comparable to his.
So he couldn't understand why Ye Ying was successfully selected until Zhao Yi showed him her audition video.
At that moment, Lin Xuan, who was called a "genius" by others, couldn't help but feel a little jealous and helpless.
Maybe God is just unfair. Some people are born with a halo and are destined to be the center of attention and be favored by the world.
Lin Xuan pursed his lips and said, "This role should indeed be his. But I won't speak for him."
The agent laughed: "Of course, you have no business speaking for him. Fenghua will definitely handle this matter, and the hot search will probably be suppressed in a while."
He comforted her by saying, "It doesn't matter if I can't act in Dark Fire. I have a good script on hand. I'll show it to you."
As he walked out, Lin Xuan called out, "Please contact the support group for me and tell them not to lead the trend."
Many fans knew that he auditioned for Dark Fire, and seeing that he was not on the cast list, they might vent their anger on Ye Ying. This was unnecessary.
He, Lin Xuan, is not someone who can't afford to lose.
The agent showed a joking expression, said "sharp tongue but soft heart", then made a "rest assured" gesture and left in a hurry.
＿＿
The crew of "Dark Fire" also saw the trending search, and Zhao Yi specially comforted Ye Ying: "The public likes to question things they don't understand. When the movie is released, they will change their minds." After a pause, he said, "Because the audition clip involves spoilers, we can't release it. You can only bear with it a little."
"It's okay." Ye Ying didn't think it was a big deal and even smiled. "I've been prepared for this."
He knew that this decision would surely cause dissatisfaction among many people. But he thought clearly that he took on "Dark Fire" based on his own strength, and it would not delay his main job, not to mention that he could learn more new things, so there was nothing to regret.
As long as he believes that his decision is correct, he will not be disturbed or influenced by the outside world.
So the filming officially began.
Ye Ying's perfect performance during the audition was no accident. Zhao Yi discovered that he had strong empathy and sensitivity. Perhaps it was because he had never learned any acting skills, so all his performances were completely natural and immersive.
He was a bit awkward, but his dazzling and surprising performances were beyond everyone's imagination. Even Han Zhiyao was amazed by his interpretation of Song Yingbai in this state and said to him, "If you can systematically learn acting and continue to study on this path, it will only be a matter of time before you win the Best Actor Award."
Ye Ying thought he was joking: "Brother Han, you are exaggerating."
Chen Dong came over and said, "I don't think what he said is relevant. Xiaoye, are you in college?"
"I passed the exam, but I haven't started studying yet."
"Art school? What major?"
Ye Ying: "I got into University A, Department of Finance."
Everyone was silent for a while, and then they all cursed: "Awesome!"
Even Qin Han laughed in surprise and said, "What on earth is wrong with your little head? This is amazing. You really beat us old guys to death on the beach!"
"No wonder so many young girls are obsessed with you," Chen Dong sighed indignantly, "You are simply a human cheat!!"
Han Zhiyao: "So do you plan to continue developing in the circle?"
Ye Ying nodded: "But I probably won't be an idol forever. I haven't decided what I want to be."
"Then you can seriously consider acting," Han Zhiyao suggested, "and if you have the conditions, it's best to study acting systematically."
"I'll think about it carefully." Ye Ying looked at him seriously and said, "Thank you, Brother Han."
Han Zhiyao smiled and touched Ye Ying's head with his big hand.
The crew, whether actors or staff, all like Ye Ying very much. He is smart and hardworking, polite and diligent. He never gets proud when he is praised, and he doesn't get emotional when he is criticized. He just asks for advice humbly over and over again, and then practices and corrects over and over again.
He is not a professional actor, but his professionalism makes everyone sigh - there is a scene where he plays against Qin Han. The plot has reached its end and climax, and all the conflicts and contradictions between the people have broken out. Qin Han holds Ye Ying's hands behind his back, grabs his hair and presses him heavily onto the iron bed. The rough and violent movements and the sound of bodies hitting metal frighten the onlookers, but Ye Ying never frowns from beginning to end and completes the performance with great devotion.
But when he got up from the iron bed, everyone discovered that his face was bleeding.
Everyone was shocked. Zhao Yi even almost called 120, but Ye Ying quickly stopped him: "It's okay! It's just a small scratch on your face. Just put a Band-Aid on it."
This cut was caused by hitting the edge of the iron bed just now. Although Ye Ying felt it at the time, she thought it was not a big deal, so she did not stop.
Qin Han was extremely anxious, his face full of self-blame: "It's all my fault! What would I do if your face...
Everyone knows that Ye Ying is an idol, and even the face of her own boy band. If she gets a scar on her face, wouldn't that make people feel heartbroken! ?
Everyone looked at the doctor with a serious face while he treated the scratch on his face, which made Ye Ying laugh: "It's really okay. If you didn't know, you would think there was a hole in my head from your expressions."
We were finally relieved until the doctor said there would be no scars.
But after this incident, several actors were obviously more careful with Ye Ying, and treated him more and more like their own brother. They were even gentle to "Song Yingbai" in the play for a while, until they were scolded by Zhao Yi and then they got back to their normal state.
He got up at six o'clock every day and filmed until eleven or twelve at night. Sometimes he would shoot until late at night if he was not in good condition, and sometimes he would shoot all night if everyone was passionate. This kind of life should be very tiring, but Ye Ying lived a very fulfilling life every day and felt more and more fresh fun in acting. So when Zhao Yi announced that he had successfully finished filming, he felt a little empty in his heart, and there was a strong sense of unreality.
Half a month, it’s really fast.
Zhao Yi saw his reluctance and immediately said, "If you are reluctant to leave, then act more. I welcome you anytime."
Everyone started to make a noise: "Director Zhao, you have to hurry up. If Xiao Ye doesn't become famous and his worth goes up, you may not be able to afford him!"
"I will never forget Director Zhao's kindness." Ye Ying said, "You taught me a lot. I should call you teacher."
"I am also very proud to meet you as my student." Zhao Yi said with a smile, "Seriously, let me act like this. Next time I will write a script specifically for you. You are the protagonist who deserves it!"
Everyone had a great time at the wrap party, but they were reluctant to leave as the film was drawing to a close. Everyone took photos and hugged Ye Ying. Zhao Yi also gave him a big red envelope: "May everything go well, Cheng Sijin!"
Han Zhiyao also gave him a hug, patted him on the back, and whispered, "Looking forward to our next cooperation."
"Please let me know when your group holds a concert next time!" Chen Dong said, "I want to be there!"
"I wish Xiaoye will become more and more popular," Qin Han said with a smile, "and his career will reach a higher level!"
With an arm full of gifts and flowers and everyone's best wishes, Ye Ying ended this precious and unforgettable journey of her life.
He flew to City B in the early morning. After the wrap party, he returned to the hotel, packed his luggage and was sent to the airport by the company's special car. Ye Ying went downstairs holding the big bouquet of flowers received at the party in one hand and the suitcase in the other. He didn't see the car, but saw a familiar figure, lazily leaning on the pillar at the entrance of the hotel waiting.
Ye Ying's lips curled up unconsciously, and she quickened her pace and walked over. He Xizhou heard the sound of the wheels of the suitcase, looked up, and his eyes were immediately filled with smiles.
He stood up and walked over, stretched out his hand to take Ye Ying's box and pulled it: "There is no parking space, the driver parked outside, let's go over."
Ye Ying said "hmm": "How did you get through?"
I could take a plane tonight and arrive in City B at dawn tomorrow, but I have to go through the hassle of flying again.
He Xizhou turned his head and looked at him: "What do you think?"
Ye Ying stopped talking and pretended to look at the flowers in her arms.
Leaving the hotel, there was a cool evening breeze outside. There was no one around, and the gurgling sound of the suitcase on the road was particularly clear.
He Xizhou: "How was the filming of the movie?"
“It went pretty smoothly and I learned a lot.”
“Are the crew members easy to get along with?”
"Well, the seniors all took good care of me, and Director Zhao was also very nice."
"Missed me?"
The smooth conversation paused for a moment. Ye Ying coughed lightly and said, "I miss you all."
"Oh." He Xizhou nodded, "It's okay, everyone will definitely include me anyway."
Ye Ying tilted her head to hide the smile in her eyes.
They were silent, just walking side by side, He Xizhou pulling the suitcase with his left hand, Ye Ying holding flowers in her right hand. Their free hands hung at their sides, and they would touch each other if they were not careful.
He Xizhou looked at the road ahead, and pretended to casually reach over with his right hand, tentatively pinching a little finger next to him. After a while, seeing that the little finger did not resist, he then plucked up the courage to hold the whole hand in his own.
Ye Ying held the flowers with her head down, letting herself be held by the hand by the person beside her, and walked along this quiet path accompanied by moonlight, fragrance, and a pounding heartbeat.
