Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 207 It’s all Li Pingbin’s fault!
"What's going on? Why is Jie Cheng so listless again?"

Listening to Liang Jiahui chatting with Li Pingbin and the others, Yang Mi raised the corner of her mouth.

Afraid that he might laugh out loud accidentally, he trotted to the corner of the set.

What else could it be? To borrow the words of a Taiwanese tabloid: dehydration!
How would you feel good if I hit you all the way on my motorcycle?

When getting off the car, he hesitated and insisted on smoking a cigarette. How could he calm down completely?
Even if he took the time to smoke two cigarettes, the traces would still be obvious when he came down.

So the truth is clear: I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, I couldn't hold it in, so I just turned it on manually!

Thinking of this, Yang Mi couldn't help herself any longer. She squinted her eyes and smiled, her pretty face blooming vividly.

"Mi Mi, why are you squatting here?"

Sun Li passed by and asked curiously,

"Why are you laughing? You are so happy."

"Emmm, my classmate sent me a QQ message saying that the bird in the message room had learned a new word, and I thought it was very funny and couldn't help laughing."

"Hahaha, that's really funny." Sun Li couldn't help laughing when he heard it.

After two nights of counseling and communication, Sun Li's heart knot has been completely untied. He is no longer sensitive to the content of "parrot imitation" and can look at it with a relaxed attitude.

"This bird that Grandpa raises is really weird!"

"You call it stupid, but it is very good at parroting."

"But if you want to say it's smart, it's really good at 'parroting'. It's so good that it will die from this mouth sooner or later."

Sun Li became more and more interested as he spoke, as if he had opened up a conversation.

The breeze brings the orange glow of the morning sun, spreading it evenly on my cheeks.

The two shallow dimples seemed to be filled with fragrant and intoxicating wine, attracting the treetops above to chirp non-stop.

Yang Mi felt something was wrong as she watched.
"Senior, why do you look so good?"

"Ah?" Sun Li was stunned. "Really?"

"Yes, yes!" Yang Mi stood up and moved closer, "Wow, it's white and rosy, and watery."

"Senior, what brand of moisturizing product have you switched to recently? I want to use it too!"

Emmm, I’m afraid you can’t use this.

It’s not just because the product has age requirements for customers.

Most importantly, the stock is out and there is no water for the time being.
"Mi Mi, you're overthinking. It's not because of the hydrating cosmetics."

"What's the reason for that?"

"It makes your body and mind feel smooth, and it makes your sleep comfortable."

"That's it?" Yang Mi looked puzzled.

"That's it!" Sun Li said sincerely and frankly.

"Guarantee one."

Zhen Jiecheng leaned lazily on the back of the chair and waved to Jie Lun.

I was very busy last night and I couldn't help but strike three times with my sword.

There was no way, how quiet and virtuous Sun Li used to be, how open she was now. The strong contrast made Zhen Jiecheng uncontrollably excited.

"Imagine that you are now facing the me of two years ago. Jie Cheng, what should you call me?"

"Senior?"

"Bah! Please call me Mrs. Huang!"

"Sister, lift it up, I'll put a pillow under it."

"Sister? What sister?" Sun Li said with a stern face, "I've told you so many times, you should call me Madam during work hours!"

The next second, she raised a charming smile as if changing her face, blinked,
"What are you standing there for? Keep working!"

"Phew~ It feels so good to vent my emotions!"

"I have not only said but also done things that I never dared to think about before. Jiecheng, thank you for going crazy with me. It's hard work~"

"Now I've discovered that Huang isn't completely useless. He can still be put to good use."

This woman is really brave in what she says and what she does!
It feels like a child who has always been controlled finally lets himself go after going to college.

But when it is daytime, her tranquility and dignity are back, and her gentle temperament radiates from the inside out.

Zhen Jiecheng forced himself to look away, not because he was worried about being suspected, but mainly because his brother was too stubborn, and what he couldn't stand the most was the contrast, so he would always raise his head and want to contradict him, completely ignoring the soreness.

"Jie Cheng!" Jie Lun came running over. "What's wrong with your performance? Tell me and I'll change it."

"Not enough emotional involvement."

"The body language is so deliberate and a little superficial."

"To consciously perform unconscious actions is the right direction for performance, but it's not suitable for you."

“It requires actors to have enough experience to summarize and refine subconscious reactions that are in line with public cognition.”

"It requires actors to have enough skills to adapt this reaction into a film or TV show and to perform it with a real texture."

"Obviously, you don't have either of these, so your attempt to draw a tiger ends up looking like a dog."

After a pause,
"If you go by the previous standards, you're definitely qualified."

"But including this scene, the following scenes are the most amazing parts of the movie. So I can only raise the standard for you."

"Jiecheng, what should I do?" Jielun asked without thinking.

"Wait, you ask me? Shouldn't you ask yourself?" Zhen Jiecheng forced himself to sit up from the recliner.

Looking at Jie Lun's heartless pursuit of knowledge, my mind was in a mess.

"Substitution! Anchor Hou! Broken heart!"

“Isn’t this the original intention of your project?”

In the original version of "Secret", Jie Lun's daily scenes were often poor, but in the key scenes that required emotional outbursts, his performances were all quite beautiful!

Otherwise, why would "experiential" actors be favored by directors? After all, even Jie Lun can trigger the audience's emotional resonance through his "true character performance".

"Well, you're right. It was like that at the beginning." Jie Lun nodded, "But it wasn't like that later!"

"Ah?" Zhen Jiecheng opened his eyes wide.

"Really! If you don't believe me, ask Dani!"

"Brother Cheng, Brother Jay didn't lie to you. This is indeed the truth." Dani explained, "Last time on the set of Curse of the Golden Flower, after you talked to Brother Jay, Brother Jay has been reflecting on it."

"After discussing it with her for a while, Jay finally figured it out."

"It's just that Jay is too shy to let go, otherwise he would have followed your advice, Cheng: enjoy the right to use, but give up the ownership."

"Ah?" Zhen Jiecheng couldn't open his eyes any wider and could only express his emotions by blinking a few times.

"So what you mean is that Jie Lun no longer has any feelings for Host Hou?"

"Well, that's right."

"So, you can't empathize with the struggle of a broken heart?"

"Yes!" Dani nodded, "I don't have the feeling anymore, how can I put myself into the situation?"

"屮!"

"So it's my fault?"

Zhen Jiecheng was completely dumbfounded.

"What about the play?"

What to do? Jiahui will do it!
Originally, Zhen Jiecheng's plan for his gang was to deceive the top bosses among the behind-the-scenes staff. But now, Zhen Jiecheng felt it was necessary to add Liang Jiahui.

So dedicated, so considerate, and so damn useful!
Zhen Jiecheng didn't know what Liang Jiahui did after he pulled Jielun into a classroom, but when Jielun stepped onto the set again, his state was immediately different. After several adjustments to "keep one line", he successfully met Zhen Jiecheng's requirements.

"Damn it! It's my fault for not thinking of it. If you, Jiahui, had taken action earlier, wouldn't Jielun have taken off?"

Director's Choice Award for Best Actress?

more than!

Nominated for Best Actor and even in the race!
"Jiecheng, I'm not that capable!" Liang Jiahui smiled and shook his head. "The emotional outburst scenes can be played out through directing, but the dull parts are different. It mainly depends on the actor's own accumulation."

"And there are also flaws in taking shortcuts. Emotions can burst out, but they can't be contained."

“If you can’t control the rhythm, you won’t be able to grasp the essence. The result is more moving than memorable.”

"Hahaha, that's enough! Anyway, apart from Jie Lun, the memorable part of this movie is not the actors' acting skills." Zhen Jiecheng grinned, "So, what else do you want a bicycle for?"

Lying back lazily again,
"Go ahead, prepare for the next one."

The props team and lighting team quickly got busy and readjusted the set.

The two close-up paintings in the piano room above: Chopin and his favorite woman.

During the time when "Ye Xianglun" and "Lu Xiaoyu" were together, it played the role of hinting and paving the way:

"Chopin and the woman he loved most, they were together for ten years, but they still separated."

"But to be able to have it for ten years is already a long time!"

After the misunderstanding,
In the background are Chopin and George Sand, and in the foreground are "Ye Xianglun" and "Qingyi" talking about love, and the song they are playing is called "Lu Xiaoyu".

Highlight a contrast and do whatever it takes to make the audience feel upset!
And now,
Mottled, old, and cracked.

Time is something that catches people off guard, and it is hard to predict whether it will be sunny or rainy.

It can brew intoxicating wine, but it can also ruthlessly reveal the truth.

The falling of the wall is done by post-production special effects, but it is only auxiliary.

The aging of props and the processing of light are the main forces in creating the texture of the lens.

“Cold colors!”

"Give the piano area warm light, no need to lower the color temperature."

"Where's the reflector? Bring me one. The light of 'Lu Xiaoyu' should still be distorted. But it should be between the warm tones of the piano and the cool tones on the wall."

"The piano is real and consistent throughout; the wall, like the surrounding props, is fake and constantly changes over time; 'Lu Xiaoyu' is half real and half fake. If I have to describe it in one word, it would be the feeling of metamorphosis!"

"Old Ji, thank you for your help! I want to see the contrast between the three in the shot, with clear layers. At the same time, 'Lu Xiaoyu' has to bear the bond between the other two."

"Okay, leave it to me!" Ji Jianming agreed readily, but after turning around, he quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

There was no way, Li Pingbin was staring at the two copper bells!
If you have the slightest hesitation in agreeing to something, you will appear unprofessional and will be laughed at!
Ji Jianming gritted his teeth and worked hard, adjusting things carefully bit by bit, cursing in his heart as he did so.

Originally, taking on a youth romance film was no different from taking a vacation, but who would have thought...it was all Li Pingbin's fault!
It would have been fine if he had involved himself, but he also got Jie Cheng's interest involved and even dragged me into it.

I remember when I was lighting the Jiang Wen for Inu Ru, I was never tortured like this!

at last!

The lighting effects received Zhen Jiecheng's approval.

Ji Jianming didn't think twice and immediately stared at Li Pingbin.

You old idiot, it’s my turn now!
Look at me?

Just take a look!

Li Pingbin curled his lips calmly.

I initiated it, how can I be afraid? It doesn't exist!

He turned his back and adjusted his breathing carefully, fearing that the amplitude would be too great and would be noticed by Ji Jianming.

If you move too much, you will appear nervous, unprofessional and will be laughed at!
Especially if you are the instigator, the punishment would be doubled.

In my ears, Zhen Jiecheng's lazy loud speaker sounded,

"All units, prepare, action."

Open up!
Side shot, close-up.

The music score placed on the piano is very bright; the profile of "Lu Xiaoyu" is dark yellow.

The carvings on the wall become an invisible dividing line between the two, and as a cool color, they also distinguish themselves from the two.

Slow push, downward swing, close-up of fingers playing the piano.

Cut to the middle scene, close-up from the front. Continue to push slowly, over the shoulder, until "Lu Xiaoyu" is completely out of the picture.

Li Pingbin was as steady as an old dog. He aimed the camera at Chopin and George Sand on the wall, then cut back to shoot from the back.

Move sideways while pushing forward.

Then slowly pull back to allow the lens to move in an arc.

From close shot to mid shot, and then to long shot.

One blurs and then focuses, and returns from another angle.

The transition is silky smooth!

And Sun Li did not let Li Pingbin down with his efforts.

Leave the most unbridled horseflies for the night, stripping out the purest literature and sentimentality for use on the set.

At night, Mr. Huang is a prop, constructing the scene and serving as a joke.

During the day, Mr. Huang is still a prop. Construct the scene and put in the emotions.

If Teacher Huang knew about this, he would be really upset!
"Pass!"

"Old Li, great shots! Three words: steady! accurate! fierce!"

"Pass!"

"Lao Ji, the lighting is amazing! The texture of the photo is so beautiful!"

"Pass!"

"Everyone has worked so hard. I'll have Director Zhou prepare a feast for everyone to reward them!"

After the shooting entered the subjective perspective of "Lu Xiaoyu", the fluency quickly increased. After Zhen Jiecheng recovered some energy, he raised his loud speaker and gave a thumbs up, expressing his appreciation.

"Sister, you acted well!"

"Jie Lun, look at him!"

"Sister, that's awesome!"

"Jie Lun, why are you still here? Go away, what's the point of doing this? Do you think you can learn it? Hurry up and go find Brother Jiahui for extra lessons!"

"Sister, the weather is nice today. The moon will definitely be bright and round tonight."

"Jie Yi, where is Jie Lun? He is a director but he is nowhere to be seen on the set. What a shame for this director!"

After temporarily putting Jie Lun aside, the only thing Zhen Jiecheng needed to worry about was how to take good-looking shots.

Emmm, it seems there is no need to worry too much.

You just need to put forward your request, and the specific matters will be led by Li Pingbin, Ji Jianming and Cao Jiuping.

This movie is so relaxing!

Regain your strength during the day and attack with all your might at night.

nice!
Thinking of this, Zhen Jiecheng leaned back in the recliner again, crossed his legs, and felt comfortable and leisurely.
