Chapter 81 Chapter 81
The boy's illness came quickly and went away quickly.
When Song Xue came back from her vacation in Australia, He Xianyu was in high spirits holding a small rock concert in the hot studio. Director Chen and the producer stood on his left and right.
Song Xue was a little surprised. During the time she was away, the relationship between these three people had become so good?
"New friend over there, let me see your enthusiasm, okay?" He Xianyu pointed in the direction of Song Xue.
Song Xue was stunned for a moment before she reacted and waved her hands along with the "audience".
The three were singing a rock hit "It's my life".
Director Chen is 58 years old, the producer is 39 years old, and He Xianyu is 18 years old. Although the age difference between the three is a bit big, the happiness on their faces is the same at this moment.
He Xianyu is the lead singer, responsible for the high notes——
It's my life.
It's now or never.
I ain't gonna live forever.
I just want to live while I'm alive.
I don't want to live forever, I just want to live seriously while I'm alive.
Song Xue savored the lyrics carefully. She and He Xianyu were both people who had lived their lives again, so they felt more deeply about this sentence.
Perhaps every filmmaker is more or less rebellious in his or her bones, and rock music carries this rebellious spirit. The kind of direct touch it brings to the soul is unmatched by other musical styles.
At the end of the song, everyone was still not satisfied and shouted "encore".
The three of them discussed it for a while, and Director Chen said into the microphone: "Next, I will bring you Lincoln Gardens' "Numb", which the three of us like very much."
He Xianyu sang to his heart's content. However, half an hour later, after a word "action", he became the silent boy again.
Entering August, the stifling heat in Qingdao becomes more and more obvious. During the day, it is as hot as being in a sauna, and you can sweat wherever you go.
The whole city was like a "steamer", and every step felt like being soaked in hot water.
In He Xianyu's words, it means "steaming fish" every day.
Due to the limitations of the shooting environment, the filming was dusty and the leading actors had to "eat dirt" the entire time.
Faced with such tough filming conditions, He Xianyu remained optimistic and active, and is recognized as the best at finding joy in adversity.
As soon as the director called for a break, He Xianyu just found a place to squat.
The screenwriter handed him a piece of watermelon and asked, "Are you tired? Tell me the truth, do you regret taking on the role of 'Little Devil'?"
He Xianyu shook his head firmly. "If it wasn't for 'Little Devil', I don't think I would have become an actor. It's just a pity. If I had more acting experience, I would have played 'Little Devil' better. I'm afraid I have let down the 'Little Devil' you created."
The screenwriter has a different view. "It's God's best arrangement that you, at the age of 18, meet an 18-year-old kid. A few days ago, I saw you singing with Director Chen and others, and I suddenly got an inspiration. I can write about an alternative rock band, a band of a teenager and a few uncles."
He Xianyu was very interested: "It's a very interesting setting."
"When the script is out, I will invite you to act in it." Although the script only has an outline, the screenwriter has already started finalizing the actors.
He Xianyu didn't expect that he would receive an invitation from a famous screenwriter before he finished filming his first movie. He readily agreed: "Okay."
Song Xuelai recommended herself: "Editor Ning, if there is a suitable role, you can consider me."
All the cast and crew of "Return to the Tomb" know that He Xianyu has a very good acting teacher who teaches He Xianyu how to act, adjusts the details of He Xianyu's performance, and even gives the director a lot of constructive suggestions.
If the producer had not told me that Song Xue was a well-known vase in the domestic entertainment industry, I would have thought that she was just lacking in opportunities.
The scene that was about to be filmed was the one that He Xianyu auditioned for. Xiao Gui escaped from the battlefield and was caught by Song Jin, and the two had their first direct confrontation.
At that time, He Xianyu had no acting experience and her acting skills could only be described as "immature".
Compared to the audition in May, He Xianyu's acting skills have improved by leaps and bounds. However, after the trial shoot, he still felt uncomfortable.
Song Xue simply took the stage herself and acted opposite Xiao Qinghe.
[Xiao Gui (Song Xue) looked at Song Jin (Xiao Qinghe) who was blocking his way, his eyes full of undisguised disdain and contempt, and said in a bland voice, "What do you care?"
"We paid a lot of money to invite you here, not to let you escape at the last minute!" Song Jin was extremely angry and gnashed his teeth, "Qu Mufeng said you were so powerful, but you are nothing more than this!"
The little ghost didn't say anything, but just stared behind Song Jin with an expressionless face.
……】
It was obviously the same script, but Song Xue performed it so naturally that even the best of the new generation acting opposite him were still "pressed to the ground and rubbed" by her.
He Xianyu realized that the biggest reason why his and Song Xue's versions were so different was the sense of rhythm.
"At the beginning of this scene, you looked down on Song Jin, so you were in a superior position. But then, Song Jin pointed out your weakness, and you were in an inferior position. Then the two of you reached an agreement, and your positions became delicately balanced." Song Xue pointed out He Xianyu's problem, "Don't be straightforward in your performance. The rhythm should have ups and downs, so that it can be more contagious. Have you ever watched boxing? Being able to perform your own combination is rhythm. Being able to perform a variety of combinations is a good boxer."
Song Xue taught He Xianyu in person that bad actors act out emotions, average actors act out psychology, and good actors act out rhythm. When faced with different scripts, if one can perform with different senses of rhythm and unify the psychological and physiological rhythms of the characters in the play to the same standard through a sense of belief, then he can be considered a good actor.
The sense of rhythm is not something that can be achieved overnight. Only when the actor fully understands the role and has sufficient control ability can he perform the charm of rhythm, so it depends largely on the actor's own ability.
Xiao Qinghe was also taught a lesson and humbly said, "Teacher Song, can we switch roles? I want to see where I am lacking."
Song Xue's unique sense of rhythm puts a lot of pressure on all the actors who play opposite her. As the saying goes, "being in the same frame means pulling down others", such a veteran actress is the one that traffic artists are most afraid to work with. But Xiao Qinghe's goal has never been traffic. He wants to use "Return to the Tomb" to enter the film industry and become a backbone of the small screen.
Zhang Mingtao was not in this scene, he watched the two scenes between Song Xue and Xiao Qinghe from the side. Xiao Qinghe is already a leader in acting among young actors, but he could hardly keep up with Song Xue's rhythm, and ended up disrupting his own rhythm.
Zhang Mingtao suggested: "Teacher Song, how about singing with me?"
Song Xue smiled and said, "Which role does Teacher Zhang want to choose?"
Zhang Mingtao has a wide range of acting skills. He can play emperors, generals, and peasants. It is not difficult for him to play either Xiaogui or Song Jin. "Ladies first, Mr. Song, you choose first."
The crew members gathered together to watch this unique rivalry.
Song Xue plays Song Jin and Zhang Mingtao plays Xiao Gui. Although the characters are very different from their gender and age, the two of them endowed the characters with spirituality and layers through their expressions, actions and eyes, and they interacted well and cooperated well.
A simple scene can be turned into a wonderful scene with the best actor and actress' performance.
The audience burst into applause.
Zhang Mingtao was still not satisfied. "It's a pity that this scene is too simple. Teacher Song, I look forward to working with you in the future."
Song Xue was recognized by the industry's big names and smiled happily: "It's my honor."
On this hot summer afternoon, the movie star and actress opened an online class to teach newcomer He Xianyu a lesson that will benefit him for life. He repeatedly watched the video and studied Song Xue's performance.
Song Xue reminded him, "Xiao Yu'er, you can refer to it, but don't copy it. Everyone has his own unique way of performing. Even if you copy and paste my performance, you are only presenting Song Xue's version of Xiao Gui, while the audience wants to see He Xianyu's version of Xiao Gui."
He Xianyu has personally felt the gap between him and the best actress, and sighed: "It's so hard to be a good actor."
Song Xue encouraged him: "You have talent and understanding, but what you lack is experience."
"Am I really charismatic? Don't tell me you have a mother filter?" He Xianyu's pair of almond-shaped eyes rolled around, making her look very smart and cute.
Song Xue saw through that he was just looking for praise, and touched his cheek, "Work hard, young man."
He Xianyu often feels that acting is like studying, which requires thinking, reviewing old knowledge to learn new things, and checking for deficiencies and filling gaps in a timely manner. Although it is said that talent determines the upper limit of an actor, with his current level of effort in acting, it is far from being a matter of talent. Instead of worrying about something as illusory as talent, it is better to act well in every scene.
This scene, which witnessed He Xianyu's "new beauty", was quickly passed when the filming officially started.
The martial arts scenes were shot at night.
[The Gu Master and the Natal Gu are one and the same. Once the Natal Gu is damaged, the Gu Master will suffer a serious blow. After the battle with the Spirit Butterfly, the little ghost was seriously injured. He accidentally stepped on the air in the Pupa Human School and fell from a high altitude. Fortunately, Song Jin, who is highly skilled in martial arts, rescued him.
After this, the little ghost changed his prejudice against Song Jin. Although this Taoist priest was still not up to standard, he was definitely not a waste. 】
In order to achieve the best filming effect, He Xianyu was suspended on a wire and "fell" from a platform several meters high again and again.
When he finished work, his arms were scratched by the wires of the wire act, and his calves had several bruises.
He Xianyu calls these injuries the actor's medals.
After returning to the hotel, Xiao Qinghe called and asked He Xianyu to go to his room.
As soon as He Xianyu entered the room, she saw a blue cake on the table. There were a few small fish painted on the cake, and two candles with the numbers "1" and "9" stuck on it.
"Xianyu, happy 19th birthday." Xiao Qinghe's voice was clear and mellow, like a beautiful violin.
He Xianyu was surprised and delighted: "How did you know?"
etc--
It’s over!
He Xianyu started to play dumb: "Teacher Xiao, you must have remembered it wrongly. I just turned 18 last month."
Xiao Qinghe chuckled. He raised his hand and touched He Xianyu's head, his voice filled with irrepressible tenderness and doting: "What? Are you afraid that I, the future villain, will eat you?"
