Full-time actor

Chapter 655 [81] Only my husband can help me to this extent!
“Just a little?!”

Liu Yifei, who was leaning on Chen Yu's shoulder, suddenly exerted force with her elbow.

Chen Yu shrank his neck and said with a smile: "According to my standards!"

"That's pretty much it..."

Chen Yu’s standard is his standard as an actor.

The standard for a Grand Slam actor is self-evident; it is already the highest standard in acting.

It is indeed rare to get such a positive evaluation from him.

"Then, Grand Slam Film Emperor, can you give me some useful advice?"

Liu Yifei sat next to Chen Yu, and Chen Yu immediately put the content of the monitor on the first screen: "I told the makeup team that the face needs to be made whiter. It lacks nutrition, and the eyes are slightly swollen and the corners of the eyes are darker!"

"Chen Nian cooks for herself every day and has no money, so the food must not be very good!"

"Debt collectors knock on her door every day, and she still has to do her homework. She is seriously sleep deprived!"

"You need to fill in your lower limbs. Your legs are too thin. You don't look like a day student who walks hundreds of stairs to and from school every day. Your calf muscles must be well-developed!"

"..."

Chen Yu mentioned a few points about appearance, and Liu Yifei, who had been joking, couldn't help but agree in her heart.

Really detailed observation.

This is based on the background of the actor's role, and is also the basis that Chen Yu has followed since he started acting - starting from the roots!

For an actor, acting well is really just the foundation.

What does it mean to act well? It’s not about getting the performance right, but...getting the details right.

All the details.

These details include makeup, clothing, assumptions, identities, actuality, and so on.

Everything must be consistent with the characteristics of the character, so when an actor writes a character biography, the more detailed the better.

He has to put himself into the role, not just the role itself, but also has to take into account the parents, the environment, the surrounding relationships, etc.

Liu Yifei’s performance may be fine now, but the details are actually very lacking.

This is not to say that she will win the award with these details.

It’s not that you can’t win the award without details, but if you do these, your chances of winning the award are higher than others.

The judges are not blind, and you may not get it without public relations.

But with the public relations, the audience will be convinced by such acting skills!

Liu Yifei’s current situation is that she has acting skills, but even if she wins awards, the audience will not buy it, and she will have black fans and trolls.

It’s just like the popular stars nominated for the Golden Rooster Awards.

It is definitely impossible for them to win the award, but being nominated is actually just a form of public relations. However, even so, they still encountered abuse and unfairness.

If you win an award, at least your acting skills should be worthy of the audience.

If you can't even conquer the audience, how can you accept this award with peace of mind?
Isn't this just a way for people to find a point of attack?
The reason why Chen Yu has so many fans and fewer and fewer black fans is very simple, his acting skills support all these awards, and his attitude and professionalism in acting, etc., the audience can see it, they are not blind.

When Teacher Fan Wei won the Best Actor award, no one gossiped.

You got nothing but misses and even got shortlisted. This is a joke, and also a joke for the Golden Rooster.

"You folded the corner of your clothes to show your nervousness and fear, which actually seems very deliberate!"

"If it were me, I would put my hands on my knees, rub the fabric of my pants with my thumbs, and press it again unconsciously, whatever I do subconsciously..."

"Subconscious reaction!"

Chen Yu made a move, his expression equally calm, as if he was in deep thought.

Liu Yifei looked at it and nodded thoughtfully, as if... what Chen Yu said was indeed better.

“And this is the part!”

“No one said anything before it started, and you didn’t make any movements, but you can actually make micro-expressions!”

"You can't tell from the outside of your lips, but when you purse your lips, your expression will change slightly. If you blink slowly at this time, the tension will increase even more!"

Blink slowly with drooping eyelids, this is what Chen Yu told Liu Yifei when they were discussing the play.

So she performed it and the effect was very good.

But the details were not used before, so it looked dull.

"..."

Chen Yu pointed out the shortcomings one by one, which was completely different from the previous two people's audition.

During the audition, Chen Yu would point out Liu Yifei's shortcomings in acting, and the same was true when discussing the play.

Liu Yifei took it to heart, and her performance improved a little bit... But now, Chen Yu was the director, and he told Liu Yifei directly, frame by frame, in front of the monitor, what she lacked. This kind of explanation was definitely more intuitive and impactful.

The key is that you can continue shooting immediately.

Even when Liu Yifei had previously filmed "The Two of Us", "Village", or even "Blind Mountain" where she was specifically working on honing her acting skills, the director would not have been the same as Chen Yu is now.

Only someone who is dedicated to your progress can teach you step by step.

After this kind of explanation, remember it and continue shooting. The gradual improvement is what really helps you to pick out the details.

Help you perform every part bit by bit, the best in Chen Yu's eyes.

Even if Chen Yu was Liu Yifei, he could probably only act to this extent.

But this level has already reached the highest level, and is the standard of an international film queen.

At least, Chen Yu has this confidence.

Because he had taken it.

So let alone Liu Yifei in her previous life, there are probably not many directors in this world who would be so patient and provide such meticulous explanations to actors.

What's more, this director is a very authoritative Grand Slam actor in acting.

Therefore, the treatment Liu Yifei received during this filming was unique in the world.

Only then did she react.

This director can only be her boyfriend, who can help her like this.

No one else can do it.

"do it again!"

"Fortunately, I am still an investor..."

Otherwise, other actors and crew members will definitely have opinions.

But it’s different for investors, as everyone wants to make money and become famous. Even if they have complaints in their hearts, they will just increase their salary.

Who can resist money and fame? !
Soon, the second round began.

This time Liu Yifei has obviously made more progress, but there are still flaws.

Come again!

After doing this several times, he finally passed this part. Tang Yan, who was watching from the side, was filled with envy and jealousy.

"If I didn't have self-awareness, I would have asked Brother Yu to be my boyfriend!"

This girl spoke directly to Luo Jin.

Luo Jin was not angry either, he laughed and said: "You can ask him to give you special treatment like Xixi did. I don't mind, as long as Xixi has no objection!"

"I don't want to be scolded by Director Chen!"

"As his girlfriend, I am also quite Alexander..."

Tang Yan was able to get into Liu Yifei's mood. On the set, it didn't feel like a romantic relationship, but more like a relationship between a superior and a subordinate.

She felt suffocated when she thought about it, even though she knew Chen Yu was doing this for Liu Yifei's own good.

"It's better for the two of them to film together!"

"One is a director and the other is an actor. They are naturally incompatible. I'll ask her what she thinks later."

Although Tang Yan was envious, he was quite self-aware.

If Liu Yifei wants to improve herself, it's fine. But if not, this will only increase the conflict between the two of them. After Chen Yu finally finished explaining the previous part to Liu Yifei, Tang Yan approached and asked, "How do you feel?"

"What does it feel like?"

Liu Yifei was still thinking about some points that Chen Yu had just told her.

"Being scolded by your husband on the set in front of so many people?"

Tang Yan leaned close to Liu Yifei's ear and said.

"There's no training here, it's just communication!"

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at her unhappily and said with a grin, "How do you feel? I really enjoy it!"

"You're a masochist!"

"No, think about those directors who can make their actors win awards. Which one of them is not strict with the actors?"

Liu Yifei didn't even have to think about it and said directly: "Wang Jiawei, Kurosawa Akira, Hitchcock——"

"stop!"

Tang Yan was overwhelmed after hearing this: "Okay, okay, okay, as long as you enjoy it, I'm afraid you can't stand it!"

"It's okay. Chen Yu isn't scolding me. He's usually like this. I'm used to it!"

"And I don't think he has anything wrong with him?"

“Daddy flavor!”

Tang Yan complained and Liu Yifei blinked.

Maybe... But Liu Yifei just lacks fatherly love, and maybe she can feel some of it from Chen Yu.

But she really didn't feel that Chen Yu was preaching to her. Instead, he was helping her to become a better version of herself, the person she wanted to be.

Isn't it good for two people to make progress together?
Do you have to be together every day, talking about love and affection to be in love?

Besides, this is a film set, and this is work.

"Tsk, I like it!"

Liu Yifei responded straightforwardly.

She can clearly distinguish between her own world and public places.

This is the difference between a precocious girl and the current naive girl. Tang Yan definitely can't stand such a partner.

But Liu Yifei enjoyed it.

Just like that, three days of filming passed by in a flash.

In fact, not many scenes were filmed. The main reason was that Liu Yifei's progress was slow. It's not Liu Yifei's fault, but Chen Yu's.

The demands on her were too great.

Diao Yinan and the others were all feeling a bit overwhelmed, but they knew Chen Yu’s good intentions.

He is already a Grand Slam actor, so his significant other must at least win a Best Actress award. This is not just Chen Yu's request, the entire crew knows Liu Yifei's ambition.

Therefore, everyone began to get used to the strictness of Director Chen Yu.

The seriousness of filming.

Fortunately, the Central Academy of Drama’s graduation exams were in the next few days, so Chen Yu and his group had to return to the capital.

The crew took a two-day break.

Chen Yu had to go to school first and attend the rehearsal with a group of classmates.

The day after tomorrow, the 18th, is the day of the annual graduation drama of the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama.

At that time, the entire Performance Department will perform a carefully prepared drama at the Experimental Theater of the Central Academy of Drama for school leaders and many students.

School leaders also have to give them scores.

If the response is good, the play will be performed publicly, which will be their first performance in front of the audience.

Therefore, for many students, the graduation drama is the key to their career starting point in life, and it is related to the success of many people's future acting career.

Because many students of the Central Academy of Drama came into the vision of many directors and producers through this graduation drama.

"Brother Yu, how long have you not been back to school?"

Tang Yan sat in the waiting room, restless for a moment, and kept asking.

"Dont look at me!"

Liu Yifei smiled brightly and said, "I just went back to rehearse a few days ago. It's you!"

"3 months?"

Chen Yu thought about it and it seemed like it was even longer than that.

"Alright half a year!"

"You stayed in school for a while at the end of last semester, and then you've been busy with the Lunar New Year movie until now!"

Tang Yan, a Chinese opera student who often went to school, remembered Chen Yu's attendance rate very clearly.

Luo Jin next to him even gave the data: "Strictly speaking, it should be 5 months and 3 days!"

"It's been so long..."

Chen Yu didn't feel at all that the days when he was studying at the Central Academy of Drama seemed to be still right before his eyes.

It’s been almost half a year.

The days after my rebirth passed by so quickly.

Although it is very fulfilling, with one step forward almost every year, it still feels like there is not enough time.

"Teacher Chang and the others didn't complain about anything in private, did they?"

"How can I complain? I see your record every day, this movie is released, that movie box office breaks hundreds of millions..."

“It’s hard not to mention you!”

Chen Yu is deliberately keeping a low profile now, but he still frequently makes the headlines.

After all, his fame and works are there.

"It's okay, I'll go back and rehearse well this time!"

And he has something more important to do, which is to donate money and set up a future talent support program at the Chinese Academy of Drama!
He prepares movies invested by Yu Xin and gives students from the Central Academy of Drama a chance every year.

For example, outstanding students from the acting or directing departments recommended by the school can participate in films invested by Yu Xin, and can even star in films starred and directed by Chen Yu himself.

He had been thinking about this plan for a long time and had discussed it with Yang Lu and others. This time when he returned to school, he planned to discuss the matter with the school leaders.

It is purely charitable in nature, mainly to give back to my alma mater.

If we donate, 1 million will be used to invest in the new campus.

At present, the new campus of the Central Academy of Drama has been approved, which is half a year faster than in the previous life.

Its previous life was the approval of the "Report on the Site Selection and Construction of the Central Academy of Drama" passed at the end of 06.

In this life, the Central Academy of Drama is ready to start construction, but the funds have not yet been in place. The address has been chosen, just like in the previous life, the Changping campus, Zhenggezhuang Village, Beiqiji Town, Changping!
This is what Chen Yu planned, and he would not donate the 1 million in vain.

He plans to ask the Central Academy of Drama to allocate more land to build a high-tech filming base there in the future for future special effects blockbusters.

It can also be regarded as a research place of the Chinese Academy of Drama.

The Central Academy of Drama would definitely agree, because the money would not come from the 1 million yuan, but would be Yu Xin’s investment.

If Chen Yu really wants to make a film like "The Wandering Earth", he must start planning now so that he can have countermeasures in advance when facing the impact of the Hollywood market.

As for Liu Electrician’s copyrights, “The Three-Body Problem” just started serialization last month, and it’s time to seize the opportunity and create the Liu Universe.

As for some future youth campus films, this is also Chen Yu’s next goal.

The reason why we didn’t buy up copyrights in a big way before was because the timing was not right.

And now, with the rise of the Chinese film market, the corresponding copyright procurement has indeed reached the most appropriate time.

This is the necessary path for a film company to become a giant.

The more copyrights there are, the higher the value that can be derived.
