Personal attacks by Shen Xiu
Xuan Ji thought of what he heard the crew say during the day, and whispered, “But today Shen Xiu said that Fang Chengxing’s acting was vicious.”
Xuan Yushu: "...As expected of Shen Xiu, he doesn't care about relationships, he's cold and ruthless enough."
"Xuan Ji, if a zombie opens your brain, it will leave in disappointment. Do you understand?"
He was just setting a trap for Xuan Ji. He didn't expect that Xuan Ji didn't refute it after hearing it, and actually planned to ask Shen Xiu to help Fang Chengxing.
After all, they are young and have not experienced the harshness of society. The assistant director Zhao Heng is much smarter than his silly child.
This idiot in his family doesn't even think about it. The crew is a small workplace and everyone is just a temporary colleague. Even if you are the boss, you cannot righteously designate one employee to help another employee work.
What’s more, the real boss of the “Xiantu” crew is Shen Xiu.
It was only Xuanji who came up with the idea of asking the boss to help the employees.
Not only will the boss be willing to help, but the employee who needs help must also ask for it sincerely and be willing to help.
"How did you step on me?" Xuan Ji was confused.
"Dad, this is not the point. The point is that now that this has happened, is Chen Xiu still willing to guide Fang Chengxing?"
Xuan Yushu sighed and told Xuan Ji directly and bluntly: "Don't interfere in this matter. Shen Xiu likes people who work hard. Fang Chengxing has to ask Shen Xiu for help himself. As long as Shen Xiu can see Fang Chengxing's efforts, there should be no problem."
Xuan Ji made an OK gesture: "Dad, I understand. I'll go inform Fang Chengxing right away!"
"Hey you..."
Before Xuan Yushu could finish his words, Xuan Ji's figure could no longer be found in the room.
Xuan Yushu: "......"
Notify Fang Chengxing?
Very good, I didn’t offend Chen Xiu, but now I offend Fang Chengxing instead.
This kid does things with real passion, and is so naive that he thinks that since he is a director, it is natural for actors to listen to him. He has no idea that many directors nowadays are just trying to coax actors because of the investors or the actors' status.
Before he won the awards and reached his current stage, he had coaxed countless actors, and made many bad movies because he did not dare to direct actors with powerful backgrounds.
Xuan Ji is ridiculously naive. He thinks that since his father is a director, he can be a director too if he feels like it. He just knows that others are good at acting but has no idea why they are good.
If other people's acting seems acceptable on the surface and seems to be in line with the meaning of the script, he thinks there is no problem, without even knowing whether the other party has put in any effort.
The rookie with no experience thought that since he had been following him and watching him filming since he was a child, he could also handle it on his own.
Fang Chengxing received a WeChat message from Xuan Jifa and began to question his life.
It had been a long time since he had the pleasure of being arranged clearly by the director.
There was nothing wrong with being arranged by the director. Although Xuan Ji was a new rookie director, everyone knew that his father was Xuan Yushu, who had won various directing awards. He did not feel wronged when listening to Xuan Yushu's words.
What made him feel horrified was that Xuan Yushu had to assign Chen Xiu to him instead of anyone else!
Shen Xiu's ruthless and cold words during the day echoed in his ears, Fang Chengxing shuddered, and developed the mentality of "or else the world might as well be destroyed".
The next day.
Liang Cheng was shocked when he saw the obvious dark circles under Fang Chengxing's eyes: "Were you a thief last night?"
Chen Xiu's makeup took longer than the other two. The two of them sneaked around not far from the dressing room, thinking that they could hide for as long as they could. They tacitly decided not to go in until the last moment.
"without."
Fang Chengxing said weakly: "It's just that last night I dreamed of being chopped off my hands and heart by Chen Xiu. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't sleep at all!"
Liang Cheng: “…”
Gongzi Hen, played by Fang Chengxing in "The Journey to Immortality", is a monster whose body can regenerate infinitely. The master Li Yang, played by Chen Xiu, is either on the way to chop Gongzi Hen into pieces or in the process of chopping Gongzi Hen off, which is extremely cruel.
Liang Cheng could only comfort him: "You are getting into the role in another sense."
Fang Chengxing smiled tiredly: "I'd rather not get into the role!"
Today, Chen Xiu and Liang Cheng will have a rivalry scene. No matter how long they dawdle outside, they will eventually have to go in for makeup.
Liang Cheng thought about what happened when Fang Chengxing acted with Shen Xiu yesterday. In order to avoid repeating Fang Chengxing's mistake, he took the script and sat down in the dressing room next to Shen Xiu.
"Good morning, Chen Xiu."
The crew habitually calls the actors teachers, and Liang Cheng and Fang Chengxing also called Shen Xiu "Teacher Shen" yesterday.
Chen Xiu had not taken the teacher qualification exam and had no plans to work as a teacher in the future. He felt uncomfortable and weakly suggested just calling his name.
Being greeted actively, Shen Xiu felt nervous but also a little excited, but he was still styling and couldn't turn his head to look at Liang Cheng, so he said with a stiff neck, "Good morning."
Then explain: "Sorry, I can't turn around now."
Liang Cheng waved his hand, nonchalantly: "I understand."
"Thanks."
Shen Xiu said this gratefully, not knowing what to chat about. He was so embarrassed that he didn't dare to look at the mirror, for fear of meeting the makeup artist's eyes and letting the makeup artist see that he couldn't find a topic to talk about, which would make him even more suffocated.
After Liang Cheng sat down, the makeup artist did her makeup. Liang Cheng glanced at Chen Xiu's cold profile from the corner of her eye. Fortunately, in order to cooperate with the makeup artist, Chen Xiu could not turn his head to look at her, otherwise she would have been under greater psychological pressure.
In order to avoid being instantly defeated by Shen Xiu's superb acting skills and being dissatisfied with her acting skills when she was acting with Shen Xiu later, Liang Cheng mustered up the courage to ask.
"Can you help me look at the script? I'm afraid I misunderstood the red-lined parts."
Shen Xiu: “!”
Even the Jade Emperor came and Shen Xiu was firmly convinced that Liang Cheng's voice was the sound of nature!
"Okay!" There was no need to be quiet if there was something to talk about, Shen Xiu's tone was a little heavy because of his happiness.
Liang Cheng heard Shen Xiu's heavier tone and nervously handed the script to Shen Xiu: "Thank you."
"You're welcome!" He was so happy that he couldn't even express it.
Taking the script, Shen Xiu saw the dense annotations on it, which were similar to his own, and he felt inexplicably happy.
Liang Cheng always likes to use a red marker to underline any parts he doesn't understand or is ambiguous about, no matter what role he plays.
Shen Xiu watched the scene carefully and asked, "Can you tell me how you understand it?"
At this moment, Shen Xiu felt that Liang Cheng was no longer his temporary colleague, but a classmate who discussed problems with him in class.
"I think Gu Yueying is a killer who came out of the dead after all. She definitely doesn't have any love for Gongzihen at this time. She is more calculating. After all, Gongzihen's monster body allows him to revive infinitely, which is very useful for Gu Yueying. Gu Yueying is not a good person. When she saw Gongzihen die for the first time as she expected, I don't quite understand the reluctance in her eyes..."
After listening to this, Shen Xiu thought of the description of the first meeting between Gu Yueying and Gongzi Hen in the novel, and spoke out.
"The first time Gu Yueying saw Gongzihen, she watched him grow from a pile of rotten flesh into a living person. For a killer like her, the bloody scene was not that shocking. Gu Yueying even felt disgusted when she saw Gongzihen's growth process."
"But the novel mentioned that Gu Yueying likes all beautiful things. When she saw Gongzihen's face had grown, her disgust disappeared and her eyes flashed with surprise."
"I guess the reluctance in her eyes is because she can't bear to see Gongzi Hen's face, which once amazed her for a moment, become bloody again."
After listening to Shen Xiu's words, Liang Cheng suddenly had an epiphany.
"This detail isn't even in the script!"
After that, Liang Cheng said embarrassedly: "I took this role in a hurry, and I only glanced at the novel. My mind was focused on the script given to me by the production team, so I didn't know these details."
Sure enough, just reading the script is not enough. The soul and blood of "Xiantu" are all in the original novel.
Liang Cheng didn't expect Shen Xiu to read the original novel. Judging from Shen Xiu's remarks just now, he was reading it very seriously.
Chen Xiu looked serious as he read an online novel on his phone.
The scene was so horrifying that Liang Cheng couldn't imagine it.
After recovering from the terrifying scene, Liang Cheng couldn't help but sigh: "As expected of the ruthless and merciless Gu Yueying, just this simple detail really establishes her character! No wonder Li Yang wanted Gu Yueying to be his apprentice after seeing her."
In Gu Yueying's eyes in the early stage, Gongzi Hen's only undamaged face could make her feel sorry for him. As for Gongzi Hen's body being rotten into a pulp, she could watch coldly, just like Li Yang didn't care about the blood on his hands. He would be sad for many years if a piece of his dragon scale grew and fell off naturally.
The free-spirited nature of Li Yang and Gu Yueying really gave them a master-disciple feel. When he read the novel, he deeply felt that Gu Yueying was Li Yang's disciple.
Shen Xiu nodded in agreement: "Yeah."
"And here..."
Liang Cheng discovered that although Shen Xiu sounded cold when he spoke, he was very serious and did not have any intention of being perfunctory with her. This made Liang Cheng gradually bolder and she seized the opportunity to discuss the script with Shen Xiu.
Whether it was during group discussions in class or now, Shen Xiu was most afraid that there would be someone sitting next to him, but the air would suddenly become quiet.
Chen Xiu, who didn't know what topic to talk about with others, was touched when Liang Cheng took the initiative to find a topic to talk about.
Fang Chengxing: “…”
He felt like the pickled fish he had eaten after filming yesterday: sour, vegetable, and redundant.
Did Liang Cheng eat ten huge balls in one breath? How can you be so brave!
Thinking of what Xuan Ji said last night, Fang Chengxing decided to do it for Xuan Yushu's sake. He took the script and, with the courage to face death, imitated Liang Cheng and went to talk to Shen Xiu after Liang Cheng asked the question.
"Chen Xiu, can you help me take a look?" Fang Chengxing was so nervous that he could hear his own heartbeat.
"Can."
Shen Xiu was very touched. He could finally integrate into the group of his colleagues!
Shen Xiu secretly happily took the script handed over by Fang Chengxing.
After reading the page that Fang Chengxing opened, Shen Xiu was afraid that he would say something wrong, so he checked it three times from beginning to end to make sure that he didn't find any underlining or typing at the end'? ', looked at Fang Chengxing and spoke hesitantly.
"Where are you looking?"
Apart from acting, Liang Cheng herself didn't like others to get too close to her. Seeing that Chen Xiu exuded an aura of "keep away from strangers", she felt that Chen Xiu should be similar to her, so she didn't get too close to read the script that Fang Chengxing handed to Chen Xiu.
Looking at the script with few annotations, Liang Cheng finally understood why Fang Chengxing had acted so superficially in the past week, whether he was acting with her or other actors.
When doing reading comprehension, you can make notes and write and draw on the article. For an actor to play a role well, it is necessary to analyze the character's inner thoughts.
This is so clean without any comments. Doesn't it feel soulless?
Fang Chengxing: “…”
Liang Cheng felt that when Shen Xiu said "where to look" with a cold expression and a stern voice, he was obviously angry at Fang Chengxing's lack of seriousness in treating "The Immortal Path".
Fang Chengxing's ears turned red with embarrassment. His script was completely different from Liang Chengchen's.
The newness of the script made Fang Chengxing feel ashamed at the moment.
After asking, Chen Xiu didn't get a response from Fang Chengxing. He thought his voice was too soft and Fang Chengxing didn't hear it clearly, so he subconsciously raised his voice a little and repeated the question: "Where are you looking?"
Shen Xiu emphasized his tone, he must be angry!
Fang Chengxing, feeling nervous, pointed to a random place: "Here, here."
After getting the answer, Shen Xiu responded: “Yeah.”
Then he lowered his head and looked carefully.
Seeing Shen Xiu lower his eyes and move his cold gaze away from him and onto the script, Fang Chengxing breathed a sigh of relief.
While Shen Xiu was watching, Fang Chengxing glanced secretly, and felt more relieved when he saw that the place he pointed to was the place he understood.
Fang Chengxing was relieved for a short while before he heard Shen Xiu say, "What do you think about this scene?"
Fang Chengxing told Shen Xiu what was in his mind.
After listening to this, Shen Xiu asked in confusion: "Then why is it different from what you thought when you performed it?"
Fang Chengxing’s understanding was clearly correct, so why did he act so strangely? Is it because his brain can’t control his body?
Chen Xiu thought about how his hands and feet would sometimes react contrary to normal without being controlled by his brain, and he immediately understood.
"I see. Your facial expression has a mind of its own."
"ah?"
Is this a mockery of his brainlessness? Why did Shen Xiu suddenly attack him personally? !
Fang Chengxing was confused by Shen Xiu's sudden venomous sarcasm.
Liang Cheng couldn't bear to watch it anymore and reminded him, "You just performed this scene yesterday."
Afraid that Fang Chengxing would not remember, Liang Cheng continued to remind him: "It was the scene where Shen Xiu and Director Xuan watched you perform together."
After reminding Fang Chengxing, Liang Cheng thought that Fang Chengxing's performance was too bad, and the great devil Xiu began to mock him venomously.
After Liang Cheng's thoughtful reminder, Fang Chengxing remembered it instantly and was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.
He explained in a low voice: "I didn't perform well..."
Given Xuan Ji's level of directing, his performance yesterday would definitely satisfy Xuan Ji.
As soon as Shen Xiu read the script, he remembered his eye-catching performance yesterday. He must have brought it up on purpose to embarrass him.
After all - the vision of the superb acting Shen Xiu and the rookie director Xuan Ji is different.
Before filming began, they were asked to prepare themselves mentally. Yesterday, they were warned several times with brief words and cold expressions. Today, while they were still putting on makeup, they mocked his clean script in a cold tone.....
Such intensive and repeated warnings have already made him countless times more tolerant than Lin Jiashi.
Fang Chengxing felt that if he didn't change, he would be the next Lin Jiashi, and when Shen Xiu's patience ran out, it was not impossible for him to be replaced by Shen Xiu.
Kota looked at Shen Xiu's face. He was personally identified as a waste by Shen Xiu. Who would dare to use him in the future?
"Sorry! I'll go talk to the propaganda director about it!"
After saying that, Fang Chengxing stood up and strode out of the dressing room.
Shen Xiu: “?”
What happened to Fang Chengxing?
Looking at Fang Chengxing's back, Shen Xiu was in a trance.
He didn't expect that after many days, he would once again experience the feeling of not understanding other people's train of thought.
After the discussion with Shen Xiu just now, Liang Cheng didn’t want to miss the opportunity to learn from Shen Xiu, so while Fang Chengxing was away, he hurriedly said, “Never mind him, I’ll…”
Listening to Liang Cheng's voice, Shen Xiu thought that Liang Cheng was a really good person and would not make him feel embarrassed.
There was a lot of communication before the scene, and during the filming, although Liang Cheng still felt suppressed when acting with Shen Xiu, his performance was much better than Fang Chengxing.
Fang Chengxing watched Liang Cheng acting comfortably with Shen Xiu from the side. He was envious and at the same time, he became more determined in his thoughts.
He wants everyone to be bad together, but when everyone is doing well, he must never be as bad as before!
At 10 o'clock in the evening, Xuan Ji returned home after finishing a day of filming. Xuan Yushu, who was sitting on the sofa waiting for Xuan Ji, immediately asked, "How did Fang Chengxing react today?"
Among the three important actors, Chen Xiu, Liang Cheng and Xuan Yushu are not worried, but only worried about Fang Chengxing who is fooling around.
Hearing this, Xuan Ji felt that his fatigue from the whole day had disappeared, and he said with great joy: "Dad, you may not believe this, but before I even said anything, Fang Chengxing told me that he wanted to reshoot the scenes from the previous week."
Xuan Yushu: "......"
Is this what the legendary "a fool has good fortune" means?
Xuan Ji just wanted to share and didn't need Xuan Yushu to speak, so he continued talking on his own.
"Dad, I don't know what happened to Fang Chengxing today. Liang Cheng said that after he talked to Shen Xiu, he was a completely different person. After seeing Fang Chengxing's performance today when he didn't have a scene with Shen Xiu, I finally realized that Fang Chengxing can act better. I can't even imagine how great the result will be after the reshoot!"
Xuan Yushu understood that it must be Chen Xiu who pointed out Fang Chengxing's perfunctory attitude. Fang Chengxing saw that he couldn't get away with it, so he didn't dare to continue to be bad and became serious.
On Monday afternoon, Shen Xiu had no classes.
Shen Xiu, who had used his spare time after class to complete the duration of Subject 1, went to the Subject 1 examination room to take the exam according to the previously prepared schedule.
Chen Xiu likes taking exams. Every time he finishes a course or gets a certificate, he feels a sense of accomplishment.
When he came out of the examination room, even though Shen Xiu knew that Subject 1 was very simple, he couldn't help but feel happy knowing that he had passed the Subject 1 exam with full marks.
After leaving the examination room, Shen Xiu, who was in a good mood, decided: "To celebrate my perfect score in Subject 1, I have to buy a little skirt and a toy for Lucky."
System: [......] What does Shen Xiu’s passing of subject one with full marks have to do with lucky? It’s not Lucky’s exam!
Do all cat owners have this kind of thinking process?
Half an hour later, the system looked at Shen Xiu who came out of the pet store with two bags of toys and clothes, and made an envious electronic sound.
【hateful! 】
The pet shop clerk looked at the tall boy's back and excitedly grabbed the arm of his colleague next to him: "Master Xiu, the living Master Xiu ah ah ah!!!"
God knows how much self-control she needed to suppress the urge to scream when she saw Shen Xiu coming in, and try to receive him with a normal expression.
"The cap, mask and sunglasses are all covered up. Are you sure?"
"Yes, definitely! Even if Master Xiu covers his entire face, we, the Xiu experts, can still recognize him from his back and his imposing presence!"
My colleague didn't quite believe it and pointed to the nearby bus stop with his eyes.
"Even though I didn't see his eyes, I felt that he was so cold that people didn't dare to approach him. His aura and height were very similar to the Shen Xiu you mentioned. But, according to what you said, Shen Xiu has such a powerful background and his popularity is close to the top, how could he take the bus?"
When 18th-tier unknown celebrities travel, they either drive or are picked up by a driver. What about those artists who take the bus? I can’t even count them with ten fingers.
Most artists don’t even know how to take the subway, bus or coach.
The clerk saw Shen Xiu getting on the bus and the bus leaving, and said without hesitation: “How is it impossible? Although our Xiu Bao is very powerful, he never pays attention to these things!”
"Xiubao's roommate once revealed that Xiubao and I were working part-time jobs everywhere. What's the big deal? This is all part of life!"
My colleague still didn't believe that such a popular artist would act like this, but he was too embarrassed to argue with her, so he replied perfunctorily: "Yeah, then why didn't you sign an autograph? You'll know if it's true after you sign it."
The clerk blinked shyly: "You may not believe it, I'm shy~"
colleague:"......"
Which shy person would rush to the main person and introduce him/her without stuttering? She didn't understand the shyness of the monks.
The clerk said: "Besides, our Xiu experts said in the group that if you catch a Xiubao, just watch it quietly and don't disturb it."
Colleague: “…You guys are pretty good.”
Her impression of star-chasing is still the scene of a large group of people picking up their idols at the airport and running after them.
Wednesday.
Chen Xiu, who had no classes in the morning, followed the schedule and arrived at the driving school without wasting a second to prepare for the second subject.
This driving school is not far from the school. Most of the applicants are students, and most of them come to learn driving on Saturdays and Sundays.
Therefore, when Shen Xiu showed up at the driving school on Wednesday, not many people had learned the skills.
The coach was frightened when he saw Shen Xiu, who was so tall, standing in front of him, taking off his mask, sunglasses and baseball cap and looking at him with such cold eyes.
After Shen Xiu put away the mask and hat, he saw the coach looking at him without moving, and asked in confusion: “Coach, aren’t you going to start?”
He and the coach were not familiar with each other, and they just stared at each other before they even started practicing. Chen Xiu didn't know if the coach was embarrassed or not, but he himself was quite embarrassed.
Hearing Shen Xiu's cold voice, the coach cleared his throat, steadied himself, and asked Shen Xiu routinely.
"Have you ever touched a car before? I mean, not on the road, but in your own private space."
Shen Xiu answered without hesitation: "No."
Coach: “Is it fake?!”
good evening!
