A week later.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather becomes cooler.

Before I can recover from the leisure of the holiday, the National Day holiday comes again.

It makes people feel like the last time they took a holiday was just the last time.

Lu Ban doesn't have a home, so there is no need for him to go back to his hometown during holidays. In fact, he is now a freelancer, and he has a holiday every day and also has to work every day.

When you gain freedom, you lose freedom.

Lu Ban deeply agreed with this. He now looked like the freest person in the world, but in fact he was the least free person in the world.

When he opened his eyes in the morning, Lu Ban felt a little chest tightness.

Those who have raised cats can understand this feeling. It's like your own big orange cat quietly climbs onto your chest in the morning and sits there with its hands in its pockets. When you open your eyes, it yawns and sprays its bad breath on your face.

Lu Ban lowered his head slightly. The curtains blocked most of the sunlight, making the room very dim. He saw a thick black fog curled up into a ball, pressing on his chest. The fog was lingering, sometimes dispersing, sometimes condensing, like breathing.

Good job.

Lu Ban exclaimed, "What a good guy."

Is this a real case of sleep paralysis?

It's probably because of the physical properties that it's suppressed!

“…”

Lu Ban reached out his hand from under the air-conditioning quilt and gently poked the black mist.

The contraction of the black fog seemed to pause for a moment, but soon the fog squirmed, slowly changed its position, and continued to expand at the original rhythm.

"Still taking a nap?"

Lu Ban looked at the eyeball that was peeking out from under the bed with a look of condemnation.

He put his hand into the black mist, but did not feel any contact with any object.

The black mist suddenly shrank, and then spread out like a cat encountering an enemy, quickly flying up the wall and disappearing from the cracks in the wall.

clatter--

The cabinet seemed to move and made a slight noise.

"Good morning."

Lu Ban greeted politely to his air friend sitting on the chair.

He went to the bathroom and washed up. Lu Ban in the mirror looked a little bad. He brushed his teeth and wiped it with a cloth, making the mirror as bright and clean as new. Even Lu Ban in the mirror gave him a thumbs up.

Back in front of the computer, Lu Ban opened the webpage and looked at his data.

The number of hits on the JiuRi Video Network has exceeded three million, with less than 200,000 effective hits and revenue of about 300,000.

The number of hits on Tomorrow Online has reached five million, but the number of effective hits is less than 50,000, which means that most of the hits are blank votes.

Surprisingly, although Aishouyi Video Network has only one million views, the effective clicks have exceeded 200,000, and the payment ratio is more than five to one.

The situation of Strawman Video Network is similar to that of iShouyi Video Network, except that the website is currently promoting a variety show about idol trainees, which has attracted a lot of traffic, so the data is slightly lower than that of iShouyi Video Network.

After a simple calculation of the profits, Lu Ban found that he was very close to his small goal of one million, and he should be able to achieve it by today at the latest.

Thinking of this, Lu Ban felt happy.

But he still maintained the heart of an apprentice and devoted himself to studying content related to acting.

Because of several films, professional film critics were dissatisfied with Lu Ban's acting skills, feeling that they were too exaggerated.

Then Lu Ban must hone himself well and then amaze everyone!

He discovered that in modern film, television and drama, acting is divided into three schools: experiential, method and expressionist.

The experiential school is to experience the situation of the role. For example, if you play a blind person, you will blindfold yourself; if you play a worker, you will go to the construction site to move bricks. Through a period of experience, you can achieve a subconscious instinctive reaction when performing.

For example, if Lu Ban wants to take an experiential approach to improve his acting skills, he may have to go to the mental patients and communicate with them, so that he can understand how real mental patients live and communicate.

The method school is a branch of the experiential school, but the experiential school generally completely immerses themselves in the role, but the method school thinks that it is enough to be almost there. The object is not important, the key is the behavior.

For example, if Lu Ban wants to play a mentally ill patient, from the perspective of method school, he doesn't need to actually go to a mental hospital. Instead, he can chat and learn with psychologists, read case studies, and use these means to learn the behavior of mentally ill patients and achieve his performance.

As for the expressionist style, I don’t care what the character should actually be like, he should be the way I present myself.

Just like Lu Ban wants to play a mentally ill patient, he doesn’t need to know what the mentally ill patient’s condition is like. As long as he designs a set of performance patterns and performs according to these rules, he will be his own mentally ill patient.

Lu Ban studied him and felt that he was most suitable for the method school.

After all, he is not a person with special acting talent. He really wants to experience becoming a mental patient and learn from a mental patient. Although Lu Ban can do it, he feels that he cannot learn anything from this behavior.

As for designing a set of external behaviors for a mentally ill person, Lu Ban also felt that it would be difficult for him as an ordinary person to do so.

Only through studying materials can I learn.

He was still thinking about whether he should go to see Dr. Hao, who had previously treated him, for some advice when his cell phone vibrated again.

It’s Feng Yu’s WeChat.

[Feng Yu]: I’m sorry, the crew has to shoot an extra scene. I don’t have time during the National Day holiday. Let’s make an appointment next time! Next time for sure!

"Hmm? Is it her turn to stand you up this time?"

Lu Ban suddenly felt something fresh.

He replied and put down his phone.

"I don't know what drama Feng Yu is filming. He's so busy."

He murmured to himself, it seems that he will have to spend the National Day holiday at home again.

With a sigh, the words about the actor's acting method in front of Lu Ban suddenly twisted and turned into the cold, gray and regular font of the system.

“Mediocre?”

Completing the task and earning a profit of one million yuan was not a big surprise to Lu Ban now, but the mission evaluation made him curious.

"From this perspective, if you want to achieve a stunning or perfect evaluation, you may really need a little help from outside forces?"

Lu Ban was thinking.

Maybe if he had just found a video website and paid one million to buy it out, he could have gotten amazing reviews, and maybe if he had asked Song Yunyan to do it, he could have gotten perfect reviews.

"Alas, I am still too upright."

Lu Ban sighed.

Being as upright as he is, he would never ask Song Yunyan for such a favor.

Just like Drizzt said, in the Silent Land, people always have to have some principles.

If you act for the sake of silence points without any bottom line, you may lose your qualifications as a human being and become an alienated monster.

Lu Ban agreed with this deeply.

"Now that my silence points have accumulated to over 50,000, I can open a higher-level store. Let me see what new things are in the store first."

Lu Ban clicked on the Silent Shop.
