Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 233 Moderator Plot (Fog)

On the 5th day, Chen Linfeng was photographed joining Li Xuechang's band.

At the beginning, Li Xuejian gave everyone a big surprise.

He leaned his face close to the musician played by Chen Yixun and asked in a seemingly gentle tone.

"Let me ask you, do you think you are out of tune?"

That look seemed as if he was talking to a younger generation whom he admired.

Chen Yixun lowered his head and remained silent for a moment, then replied in a low voice, "He ran away."

"Then why the hell are you keeping silent?!"

The sound was so loud that it seemed as if the entire classroom was resonating, and his face instantly became hideous.

The students from the music school nearby were a little frightened.

Although Chen Yixun was mentally prepared, he was still shocked.

"stop."

Cheng Er stopped him, "Teacher Chen Yixun, you should make expressions."

Chen Yixun extended his hand to apologize, "It's my fault. Teacher Li Xuejian's explosive power was too strong. I was startled and couldn't react."

As usual, Chen Linfeng went to check the surveillance camera. Even if the lens was broken, it could sometimes be useful.

During this time, the students who were sitting and performing began to whisper to each other.

"Has Li Xuejian ever been so scary before? I was really shocked just now."

"Me too. I was facing him and saw Mr. Li's expression. He really looked like a villain."

Li Xuejian couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. "If you think I'm a villain, then I played the role right."

The two students didn't expect their conversation to be heard, and they were so scared that they quickly stood up and apologized.

Li Xuejian smiled and soothed, "It's okay, actors are meant to be talked about, and what you said is quite right."

On Chen Linfeng's side, after watching the previous shot, he notified the camera crew to add a close-up shot, specifically focusing on the faces of Li Xuejian and Chen Yixun.

When everything was ready, we took the second shot, but the result was still not very good.

This time Chen Yixun made expressions, but they were a bit too exaggerated.

Chen Linfeng had no choice but to come up and demonstrate in person, and performed it opposite Li Xuejian.

"do you understand?"

"understood."

"Make one for me."

Chen Yixun made a bitter face and tried it again. There was some improvement, but it still could not reach the standard.

There is no other way but to do it bit by bit. Fortunately, there is someone teaching me on the spot, so I can always do it a lot faster.

After Chen Yixun's expression passed the test, it was Li Xuejian's turn.

Both cameras were pointed at him.

Li Xuejian then began to insult Chen Yixun to the extreme.

"Chen Xun, you disgusting curly-haired guy, you just hang around here all day, did a donkey kick your head? What are your ears for?
I can’t let a tm who doesn’t know how to play music and can only nag all day pollute my territory…”

The following ones cannot be played.

Here, Chen Yixun only needs to cut to a shot of him gradually lowering his head.

Then he heard a voice saying "get out!", and he stood up with a sense of relief, took his instrument and left.

Chen Linfeng applauded to celebrate the completion of Chen Yixun's filming.

"Thank you Mr. Chen Yixun for your guest appearance. Thank you."

Chen Yixun smiled modestly, "You're welcome. You can call me next time if you need me."

After seeing off the guest actors, Chen Linfeng continued with the filming.

This kind of indoor shooting does not involve many characters and has a coherent plot, so the progress is quite fast and we have already finished nearly 1/4 of the content.

I heard that this movie was shot in just 19 days.

It does make sense.

After a day's shooting, Chen Linfeng would go to another music room to find Liu Qianqian.

She is rehearsing the songs for the Spring Festival Gala.

It just happens to be right next to the music conservatory. It would be a waste if I don’t use such good conditions.

Chen Linfeng also specially found an instructor from the college to help her improve her skills.

Although in places like the Spring Festival Gala, live singing is generally not performed.

However, the sound released will also be the content recorded in advance by the performer. In the final analysis, it is still his own voice, reflecting the singer's skill.

After Chen Linfeng arrived, he practiced piano playing, and during this time he also designed interactions with Liu Qianqian, all of which needed to be rehearsed.

The two of them have actually gone through two rounds of preliminary screening. Although there will be further review, it shouldn't be a big problem.

Liu Qianqian stopped when she saw Chen Linfeng knocking on the door.

"Xiaofeng, you are here."

"Yeah," Chen Linfeng looked around and found that she was the only one in the room.

"Xixi, where is your teacher, Mr. Li?"

"Her boyfriend is on vacation today, so I asked her to go and accompany him."

Chen Linfeng laughed and said, "You have become so familiar with the teacher so quickly that you even know about her boyfriend."

The two sat side by side on a piano stand in the music classroom, leaning against each other and chatting.

Liu Qianqian raised her head and said proudly, "Of course, who am I? If I want to get along well with someone, it won't take a minute."

At this point, she was a little confused, "Is the work of a programmer so hard? I heard from Teacher Li that her boyfriend works overtime every day and always has to go to work during his rest time."

The corners of Chen Linfeng's mouth twitched as he thought of the bad memories from his previous life.

"Programmers don't need holidays. 996 is their blessing. Amen."

"We were talking nicely, why are you acting weird again?" Liu Qianqian gave him a reproachful look.

At this moment, she saw a Band-Aid on Xiaofeng's hand and was shocked.

She quickly pulled her boyfriend's hand over and asked, "What's wrong with your hand? Is it hurt?"

Chen Linfeng said casually, "I've been playing drums for a long time, and my skin is a little rubbed, but don't worry, if I practice a little longer, the calluses will form and it will be fine.

The main reason is that I haven’t played the drums for many years, so my hands have become stiff.”

Liu Qianqian felt distressed and gently stroked the wound, "It must be very painful."

Chen Linfeng felt the touch of Xixi's cold little hands stroking back and forth, and gave a reminder.

"If you press it more, it won't hurt."

Liu Qianqian rolled her eyes at him and said, “No one would believe you.”

But I still listened to him and pressed him.

Enjoying it.

At this time, the phone rang. It was Liu Qianqian's phone. After she answered it, she heard that it was Liu Xiaoli calling.

He immediately covered the microphone and said silently, "It's my mother."

It means telling Xiaofeng to keep quiet.

Then he said to the other end of the phone, "Mom, why are you calling at this time? Is there something wrong?"

Chen Linfeng would not miss this opportunity. He took Liu Qianqian's hand and played with it carefully.

It means to repeatedly test the brink of death.

Liu Qianqian widened her eyes and looked at the other person with gritted teeth.

Take your hands away from me!

Chen Linfeng remained unmoved, and even went a step further, gently kissing the back of her hand.

The fist is hard!

Liu Qianqian clenched the hand that was being held into a fist, wanting to punch her boyfriend who was doing something naughty.

At this time, a voice came from the phone, "Xixi? Did you hear what I said?"

"Ah, Mom, what did you say? I didn't hear you clearly just now." Liu Qianqian said in a panic, not caring about her other hand.

"What are you doing? You're not even paying attention on the phone." Liu Xiaoli asked puzzledly.

But she didn't care and repeated what she had just said.

"I heard that you will be on the Spring Festival Gala. Grandma and aunt want to come to Yanjing to celebrate the New Year with you."

"Oh, sure. I haven't seen my grandma and the others for a long time."

Chen Linfeng, on his side, opened Xixi's clenched fist again and continued to play with it.

It's so strange, a strange feeling of pleasure.

Liu Qianqian was too lazy to care about him and answered the phone.

The mother and daughter also asked and answered questions and talked about their situation on the set of "Whiplash".

"I heard that Li Xuejian is also in the crew. Is his acting very good? He was a famous actor in my era."

"Indeed, it's scary in a good way, really scary."

"Ah? Why is it scary? Isn't he playing a good guy?"

"No, this time it's a devil teacher, very fierce."

"..."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Qianqian frowned and shouted angrily.

"It's fun, isn't it?"

Chen Linfeng was not worried at all that the other party was really angry, so he let go of her hand, then held Xixi's face and said.

"XiXi was so adorable when she was on the phone, I couldn't help myself for a moment."

Liu Qianqian's expression suddenly became tense and she immediately wanted to regain her serious state, but unfortunately she failed.

In the end, he could only wrinkle his nose and said angrily, "You just think I'm easy to talk to, and you always use this kind of words to coax me."

The two of them stayed together for a while, and then returned to training. After all, they didn't have much time.

Liu Qianqian also wants to show her best condition and stage performance in front of her family.

……

In the evening, as usual, we discussed the shooting plan for the next day.

The first draft of the sample film also needs to be reviewed, and the most important thing is to confirm that all the necessary shots have been taken.

Otherwise, the subsequent reshoots will be time-consuming and laborious, and sometimes the desired effect cannot be achieved.

After finishing the work, it is often late at night.

Whenever I take on the role of director, I forget about morning exercises because I always feel like I didn’t get enough sleep when I wake up in the morning.

Chen Linfeng tried to advance the scenes involving several guest actors as much as possible.

The most difficult shots were actually the ones where non-professional actors performed.

It’s not too bad when it comes to the actual performance, because these music school students have been training in this field and once they get into the professional state, they fit the role very well.

But other shots, such as entrances or some common greeting shots, are more difficult.

If you're not a regular actor, you can make all kinds of mistakes.

While walking, the same hands and feet appeared more than once.

Chen Linfeng considered hiring an assistant director who would specialize in training extras. In this regard, Cheng Er and his academic colleagues were not as useful as the experienced ones.

Li Xuejian's shots gradually increase in the later parts, and his role becomes more and more important.

To some extent, the success of portraying a devil teacher is more critical than portraying the male protagonist.

Chen Linfeng believes that his acting skills are better than his previous version.

In some scenes where he was scolded by his teacher, he would even recall the emotional memories of being scolded by his boss in his past life.

The combination of expressionism and experientialism is a bit bullying.

In the words of the surrounding staff, these plays have already become somewhat infectious, a skill that only top actors possess.

Another word to describe it is, "aura".

It will naturally be more eye-catching.

Li Xuejian must be no bad either, he is a top actor himself, and these are not difficult for him.

But what Chen Linfeng is more worried about is whether the adaptation of the image and script, and whether the new devil teacher, can be accepted by the audience and professional judges.

In real life, Li Xuejian's voice is different from that of ordinary people due to his previous illness.

Chen Linfeng added an experience setting to it.

After both the teacher and the student were injured, the male protagonist accidentally met Li Xuechang again in a bar.

Li Xuechang said this when explaining his teaching philosophy (there is no middle ground in art, you can either become a mediocre person or a crazy genius).

"I was originally a singer, but this throat..." Li Xuejian pointed at his throat while performing.

"I was poisoned in the past and became like this. I can't sing since then."

Li Xuejian had a paranoid look in his eyes, "But I refused to give in. For the sake of my musical dream, I started over again and switched to my current career."

There was temptation in his words, but he also had his own firm belief.

“If a person doesn’t have the perseverance to persevere to the end and the determination to do everything for art, how can he pursue his dream? How can he achieve success?”

Chen Linfeng sat opposite him and nodded earnestly.

For a moment, he almost thought that the other party was really speaking some wise words.

Chen Linfeng didn't recover until the staff started to finish work.

The aftereffect is quite strong.

At this moment, he knew that there was no problem with his adaptation.
