Starting from Taohuawu, kilometers away

"Hey, what are you acting? Facial paralysis?"

Li Cheng was furious when he saw Fan Chengcheng coming back smiling.

"What's wrong? Isn't everything fine?"

Fan Chengcheng looked at Li Cheng at the door of the RV with a guilty conscience, especially because the other person's face was so dark that water could be squeezed out of it.

"Is this how you conduct yourself in class? How is it different from the Yang Cheng you played? Have you made no progress at all?"

Li Cheng got angry when he thought about Fan Chengcheng's exaggerated expression and expressionless face.

"Director Zhang just said, let's do it again later. I know I didn't act well this time."

"Okay, stop looking for excuses and learn the script thoroughly. Your emotions are too exaggerated. If you don't want to be mocked by the entire internet when it airs, you should put in more effort. If you don't understand something, go ask Sister Jiang Xin and Brother Xiaodong. They can all teach you. Don't be so embarrassed."

Li Cheng patted his face after he finished speaking. Every time he saw Fan Chengcheng acting, he got furious. His acting was too obvious. He looked unprofessional or lacked the necessary skills. His acting was not as natural as that of the young actor.

"understood!"

Fan Chengcheng's tone was a little impatient, and he felt a little angry.

'boom'

The loud bang of the RV door closing was his protest against Li Cheng.

Many people around looked over here. They didn't know what happened here, but when they saw Li Cheng's murderous eyes, they knew that the two had just had an argument.

"Brother Cheng."

As Fan Chengcheng's assistant was about to get in the car, he glanced at Li Cheng cautiously.

"What are you doing! Are you coming up or not? Am I paying you or is he paying you? If you don't want to work, get out!"

Fan Chengcheng's angry voice came from the RV.

His assistant swallowed and looked as if he was going to die!

"Brother, it's not nice of you to say that about him."

Xiao Wang moved closer to Li Cheng and lowered his voice, for fear that others would hear him.

Li Cheng stood at the door of Fan Chengcheng's RV with his arms folded, took a look inside and said, "It's all for his own good. If his performance of blowing his nose and glaring eyes is broadcasted, he will be scolded by netizens. The impression of him participating in the variety show has already been imprinted in the audience's mind. If he acts like this again, it will definitely be out of place!"

"You keep saying you're doing this for my own good but all you do is scold me!"

Fan Chengcheng in the RV did not make things difficult for his assistant. He had been standing at the door. When he heard Li Cheng's words, he opened the door immediately and lowered his voice, not wanting to attract the attention of other crew members.

"Come on! Go up and talk!"

Li Cheng looked back at Fan Chengcheng and pointed at the RV.

Fan Chengcheng moved aside and let Li Cheng get in the car.

As soon as Li Cheng came up, he gave Fan Chengcheng's assistant a look.

The other party got off the car quickly after receiving the signal. When gods fight, the devils suffer. It is for his own good to leave as soon as possible.

Xiao Wang looked at the moment when Fan Chengcheng's assistant came down and said with a smile: "Do you have a headache?"

"Oh my god, if looks could kill, I would have been choked several times just now! I was scared to death!"

Fan Chengcheng's assistant put his hand on his chest. He is a little scared now, mainly because he is afraid of losing his job.

In the RV

Li Cheng sat on the sofa in the reception area with ease, his back leaning against the window and his legs placed directly on the sofa, looking very comfortable.

Fan Chengcheng sat opposite, with his hands clenched on the table, looking at Li Cheng opposite with anger on his face.

"Come on, come on, you acted like shit, why shouldn't I scold you? Why shouldn't I scold others?"

Li Cheng looked at Fan Chengcheng with a teasing look.

"How come my acting is shit? You can't insult me ​​like that!"

Fan Chengcheng wanted to argue, but he also knew that he had not performed well just now and did not have the energy to refute.

"Didn't you notice that you couldn't follow the scene just now? You were acting as Pengfei's mother who came to ask your mother to stay at your house. Did you pay attention? You weren't in the play at all, your eyes were always wandering, and you were scared when Teacher Guo Xiaodong broke the cup! The comparison between your reaction and Liu Qiqi's is like heaven and earth! Moreover, Director Zhang specially explained to all of you how to act before, mainly to you and Liu Qiqi, and you just vomited it out! Have you read the novel?"

After saying this, Li Cheng sat up straight and slammed his hand heavily on the table.

"I saw it! Why didn't I act well?"

Not to be outdone, Fan Chengcheng straightened his neck to express his protest.

"what"

Li Cheng was so angry that he laughed. He clapped his hands and said, "Okay, okay, I know you have improved now, compared to before, but you are different now than when you first started acting. Your acting skills now are no different from the Yang Cheng you played!"

"Director Zhang asked you to act indifferent, but what about you? You acted indifferent. Later, when you were acting opposite Sister Yan Ni, you were asked to act powerless and confused. What did you act like? At a loss? Standing there blankly?"

"Do you know what people will say about you if this is broadcast? Do you want to be labeled as a resourceful person like me? You are different from me. You are an idol! You are already picky about the public! The movies and TV series in the past two years have made you improve, but what about this time? Is there any difference from the previous film and television works? The expressions are exaggerated and unnatural, and the traces of acting are very heavy. Can't you put yourself in his shoes? You have to think about how to act yourself! Huh?"

"I feel awkward watching you act on the screen! It doesn't make sense at all! It's very abrupt. I saw you at first glance, like a fool! Your character is supposed to be dark, smart and opinionated when he grows up! What are you acting? Inflexible and even a little wooden!"

When Fan Chengcheng heard Li Cheng's words, his head lowered lower. He knew that he was not in a good state just now and his acting was very mediocre. He had put a lot of effort into the role of Zhuang Tunan, which was a contrast to himself. He wanted to prove himself, but when he heard Li Cheng's words, he didn't know how to act.

Li Cheng sighed when he saw Fan Chengcheng lowering his head and not talking. He didn't mean to criticize Fan Chengcheng. He stretched out his hands and shook his shoulders, saying, "Hey, why are you so depressed? I just pointed out your problem, not to criticize you!"

"I know, but"

Fan Chengcheng didn’t know what to say, he just felt like he was powerless.

"This drama is your turning point! You should ask more questions. You have a likable personality. You should ask more questions to Sister Yan Ni and the others. You have such good teachers around you. You should learn more and ask questions if you don't understand. Don't be embarrassed. I was in All Is Well at that time, and I went to learn from them with a flattering face. I just watched the filming and asked questions if I didn't understand. For example, when you had a family meeting, you didn't understand what Sister Yan Ni said and were confused, but you didn't show that at all. You directly expressed the emotions needed for the later part of the plot." In this drama, Zhuang Tunan only understood his mother's intention in the later period. Now he is still under the influence of his father and is very close to his grandparents. He doesn't understand what his mother said, while Fan Chengcheng showed his later personality. It was too abrupt.

"I understand. I'll digest it myself."

"Okay, digest it yourself. If you don't understand, go ask the director, Sister Yan Ni and the others."

After saying this, Li Cheng stood up and got out of the car, giving Fan Chengcheng plenty of space.

"How's it going bro?"

When Xiao Wang saw Li Cheng coming out, he hurried forward.

Fan Chengcheng's assistant also hurried forward and asked, "Is my brother okay?"

"It's okay. He knows that his acting just now was not very good. Let him digest it himself."

After saying this, Li Cheng patted Xiao Wang on the shoulder and headed to the set to watch the next scene. After all, he still had a lot to learn.

After Li Cheng left, Fan Chengcheng started thinking. He didn't know if he didn't understand the novel or what, but he felt that his performance was correct.

When he was a child, Zhuang Tunan gave people the impression of being sensible and steady. When he grew up, he suddenly stopped thinking about his mother and even became a little unkind. But this is what Zhuang Tunan is like when he grows up, exactly the same as in the original book. He does not understand his mother's good intentions. The education he received since childhood was to be kind and friendly to everyone, and in this drama, he has never been wronged since he was a child and he only needs to study.

As Fan Chengcheng was reminiscing, he suddenly remembered what Li Cheng said about his dull eyes. He immediately ran to the bathroom, looked in the mirror, and asked, "Are they really that dull?"

Set
"Let's talk to Chengcheng later. The kid acted really well."

Li Guangjie was watching the scene that had just been performed at that time and mentioned it to Yan Ni.

"The child acted well, but maybe his condition was not very good."

Yan Ni also nodded.

"But his eyes weren't handled well. They looked a bit dull. I'll emphasize this to him when he comes back."

Guo Xiaodong pointed at Fan Chengcheng's dull look on the screen, because it was really a bit abrupt and too dull.

"Director Zhang, Sister Yan Ni, Brother Xiaodong, Brother Guangjie."

Li Cheng came to the director and immediately started greeting him.

"coming."

"coming."

Director Zhang looked at Li Cheng, pointed at Fan Chengcheng on the screen, and asked, "What do you think of his performance?"

At this time, everyone looked at Li Cheng, wanting to hear what he had to say.

"The acting was a bit dull. He brought the character's later emotions into this. The way he looked at Teacher Chi Peng and the others was not right. He didn't have that kind of indifference. When facing Sister Yan Ni, he didn't have that kind of alienation or misunderstanding."

Li Cheng did not speak for Fan Chengcheng, but pointed out his shortcomings directly.

When Guo Xiaodong and others heard what Li Cheng said, they looked at each other. They didn't expect that Li Cheng saw so much, which was exactly the same as what they thought just now. This really gave them a little surprise.

"If you were in the role, how would you act?"

Director Zhang looked at Li Cheng expectantly.

"Me? I would definitely be inclined to be like Teacher Xiaodong, sacrificing my own interests for the sake of family affection. When I heard Sister Yan Ni's lines, I would disagree, but it would only appear for a moment. After all, Zhuang Tunan can't have so many small expressions. They should be hidden in the bottom of his heart. When they are expressed, they are only for a moment. He won't be dull and his eyes are lifeless. His eyes are usually serious and a little humorous. After all, Zhuang Tunan was still a little romantic and idealistic at this time in the early stage."

Li Cheng thought for a second or two and then said what he wanted to act out.

"Then you still don't know much about Zhuang Tunan, but that's normal. The Lin Dongzhe you play is not as quiet as him."

Director Zhang nodded after listening to Li Cheng's words, but also pointed out the shortcomings. After all, the character played by Li Cheng was not Zhuang Tunan, but Lin Dongzhe. There is still a big difference between the two roles.

"Actually, when I play Lin Dongzhe, I play Fan Chengcheng. After all, Lin Dongzhe is very close to Fan Chengcheng himself."

Li Cheng shrugged, because Fan Chengcheng himself is very similar to the character of Lin Dongzhe, and he can be almost the same if he pays a little attention.

Yan Ni immediately stood up for Fan Chengcheng and said, "You are really good at finding role models. Why don't you just play yourself? A tall funny guy!"

"Yes, it's the same when I play myself. My usual personality is very similar to Lin Dongzhe."

Li Cheng scratched his head a little embarrassedly. He couldn't get rid of the label of funny man, otherwise it couldn't be a conspicuous bag.

The afternoon sun shines through the sparse clouds, scattering on the shabby scenery, as if covering this artificial Jiangnan water town with a layer of dreamy gauze. The quaint stone bridge, the winding corridor, and the swaying boat all appear particularly vivid under the camera lens.

In this bustling filming scene, it was surprisingly quiet. Only the actors' dedicated lines echoed in the empty space. Their expressions were focused and serious, as if they had completely forgotten everything around them. The cameraman's eyes were fixed on the screen, his hands were as steady as a rock, for fear of missing any wonderful moment.

The figure in the director's seat leaned forward slightly, his eyes full of satisfaction and recognition. Whenever the actors in the picture finished a wonderful performance, the corners of his mouth would unconsciously rise, as if silently praising the actors' efforts and talents. Behind his solemn expression was his infinite love for art and his persistent pursuit of perfection.

The staff around them also held their breath and concentrated, holding the script or adjusting the lights, and every detail was carried out in an orderly manner. There was no extra chatter, no messy footsteps, only their tacit cooperation, contributing their own strength to this work together.

Suddenly, a slight "click" ended the performance, breaking the silence on the set. The director stood up, with a rare smile on his face, and nodded gently, as if to say to the actors: "Well done." At this moment, although the set was busy, everyone's face was filled with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, as if this small water town had long transcended reality and become a real and perfect world.

"How did I perform?"

After Fan Chengcheng finished his role, he immediately ran to the director to watch his performance on the screen.

Director Zhang patted him on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, not as dull as before, you have adjusted very well."

"Hey hey hey."

Fan Chengcheng's acting this time is much better than before. He doesn't look like a fool anymore, and his eyes are no longer empty.

Guan Xiaotong nudged Li Cheng, who had a raised corner of his mouth, with her elbow and said, "He adjusted very quickly. He has improved a lot compared to when he was filming Zeng Shao Nian with us."

"Of course, otherwise how could he get the role of Zhuang Tunan? This role is very different for him. If he performs well, he will have successfully changed his career!"

Li Cheng was also happy with Fan Chengcheng's performance this time. Compared with the previous performance, it was like heaven and earth. If it weren't for the fact that his face was still the same, his eyes were completely different! (End of this chapter)
