China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 955 Human Performance as a Play 1

Chapter 955 Acting as One
"Holy crap! Is that really Brother Yi? Our, our boss?!"

"My God! I almost didn't recognize him! This...this change is too drastic!"

"Did the makeup artist get a new head? No, wait, did they get a new soul?!"

"I got goosebumps, the immersion is just too strong!"

When Sun Yi came out of the dressing room, one of the crew members couldn't help but gasp, followed by a murmur of suppressed gasps and commotion, like water droplets falling into a pot of boiling oil.

There was nothing they could do; they had simply never seen Sun Yi like this before.

Whether at the company, on set, on TV shows or online, or in movies, Sun Yi's roles have never been so subversive.

Sun Yi rarely makes films with realistic themes, and even when he does, they are all age-appropriate. This kind of transformation into a middle-aged man by "dressing up ugly" is truly a rare occurrence.

First of all, there's the hairstyle. It's definitely not the clean and neat style that Sun Yi usually has, which is layered even with minimal styling. Instead, it's a carefully designed, deliberate style that conforms to the "slight side part" of that era, and you can even see traces of cheap hairspray on it.

That's not the worst part. What's even worse is that Sun Yi's skin was touched up by the makeup artist to have an unhealthy, dull complexion, with a few fine lines added to the corners of his eyes and forehead, giving him an overall rough look.

They completely lost the air of an elite person they usually possessed.

Secondly, there's his costume: a plain shirt tucked into slightly loose suit trousers, and a men's handbag, the most fashionable item of the time, containing the latest Motorola phone.

The script is set around the turn of the millennium, and all the makeup, costumes, and props are arranged according to that era.

Sun Yi didn't think much of it; in fact, in his past impressions, this was what so-called "socialites" were like in that era.

He ignored the staff on site and instead walked into Senior Sister Yu's monitoring booth. He walked around in front of Senior Sister Yu and Liu Yifei, and seeing their astonished expressions, asked:

"What, don't you recognize me?"

The two quickly recovered from their brief moment of surprise. Yu Feihong stared at Sun Yi's overall appearance, looking him up and down, her eyes growing brighter and brighter.

That's right, this is exactly what she envisioned for the male lead, "Han Zhongqing".

Liu Yifei, on the other hand, became increasingly surprised the more she looked.

It's not that Sun Yi is ugly now. Of course, compared to his usual appearance, he is indeed somewhat "low-class," but as her husband, she has seen all kinds of Sun Yi.

Sun Yi, who often worked late into the night, sporting dark circles, messy hair, and an oily face, was someone she'd seen countless times, not to mention the times when she was under the sun.
Oops! I've gone off-topic.

But what's right now is very different.

Putting aside its outward appearance, it seems to be more down-to-earth.

He's a bit of a rascal, but he gives off a very reliable vibe.

However, she did feel like laughing at that moment.

"Hey, hold it in! Last time on the 'Mountain Cry' set, when you dressed up as a country girl with long braids, I didn't even laugh at you!"

Seeing Liu Yifei trying to suppress her laughter, Sun Yi immediately retorted.

Oh dear, I haven't even had the nerve to say anything to you yet, and you've already started accusing me first!
Liu Yifei glared and immediately pouted, "So what if I'm a country girl? Country girls are pretty too."

“Yes, indeed, I have to admit that.” Sun Yi nodded and smiled slightly, then stretched out his left leg, crossed his legs at an angle, and stood in a half-up, half-down position, then deliberately flicked his “parted hair”.

"How about it? Do I look good in this outfit?"

Pfft. Goose goose goose goose
"It's so ugly, I hate it~ From now on, stay away from me~"

Liu Yifei was already holding back her laughter, but Sun Yi's teasing made her unable to hold back any longer, and she burst out laughing.

The pink little teeth have leaked out a lot again.

Sun Yi glanced at her dismissively, as if to say, "You don't know what's good for you."

Yu Feihong, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't stand it anymore. She thought the two would discuss the character designs, but instead they were showing off their affection in various ways.

"Although you two are the male and female leads in this drama, and you do need some emotional chemistry, please restrain yourselves in front of me, okay? What I need is chemistry, not PDA."

Who can bear this!
Sun Yi sat down and gave an "OK" sign, while Liu Yifei raised her hand to cover her mouth.

"Alright, let's get down to business." Yu Feihong looked at Sun Yi expectantly. "How are you doing? Should we practice a little more?"

"I don't think it's necessary." "Then let's just go ahead?"

"Just go for it!"

At the corner of the old street, Sun Yi stood off-camera, while staff members at various posts performed their duties, and extras put away their curious gazes and stood in their positions.

Liu Yifei and Yu Feihong sat together in front of the monitor, staring intently at the camera.

"The camera is ready."

"The lighting is good."

"Actors in position."

As soon as Yu Feihong shouted "Action!", the script supervisor quickly clapped the clapperboard.

The once quiet old street suddenly came alive. People were buying vegetables by pushing bicycles, haggling over prices, the butcher was swatting flies in front of his chopping board, and an old man with white hair was strolling around with his hands behind his back.

It presents a lively and vibrant picture of everyday life.

At the corner, the production assistant and cameraman were checking the time, counting down for Sun Yi.

3!

2!

1!

Before the stagehand could even give the signal, Sun Yi had already stepped forward, his timing impeccable.

The extras on set immediately began rehearsing their lines.

"Brother Qing, these watermelons just came from the field, they're so sweet, have a slice!"

"Hey, Brother Qing's here!"

"Mmm, mmm~"

Sun Yi carried a handbag, hunched over, and walked with his feet turned outwards. His shoulders were uneven as he walked, but his head was always held high, giving everyone a "what are you looking at?" look.

Yu Feihong, watching from the monitoring booth, was increasingly satisfied. At this moment, she finally understood what it meant for a good actor to be able to transform the simple and dry words on the script into dynamic images.

At this moment, Sun Yi was exactly the male protagonist in her mind.

Liu Yifei, standing next to him, was also watching her husband's performance, her pupils slightly dilated, and she gently bit her pink lips.

I have to admit, my husband's acting was really good.

She originally thought that Sun Yi hadn't been on the show much in the past two years and had almost forgotten how to perform.

Unexpectedly, it performed so well, without even a hint of awkwardness.

Just as he said, he achieved a perfect fusion of actor and role.

However, Liu Yifei is currently curious about how her husband managed to do it.

She didn't quite understand it before, but after several years of improvement, she now understands more and more clearly that the foundation of acting skills is actually life.

Or rather, experience.

Only when you have experienced enough can you act without leaving a trace, and become one with the actor.

I've known him for so long, since we were in school, how come I didn't know he'd had this experience before?

Could it be that my husband is a genius, a great director and a great actor?!
Sun Yi, who was in the shot, had no idea what Liu Yifei was thinking at that moment, otherwise he might have been terrified.

He performed entirely based on his "rich life experience," or rather, he wasn't acting at all.

Ding Dong
He walked into a shop, sat down casually, and slapped his handbag on the table.

"Hey Lao Liu, your debt to Boss Wang is due today. Here's the money."
