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

Chapter 89 Why didn’t my mother make me a genius? (24)

I originally wanted to grind it a few more times like I did a few years ago, but who knew that just this one line could achieve the effect that could only be achieved by grinding it several times before.

But it’s a good thing that the protagonist’s acting is awesome.

This will allow for better squeezing.

Yu Shengming waved his hand, "Do it again!"

"Be a little more restrained this time, and don't act so unlearned."

Chen Linfeng accurately understood the director's intention.

This is because the director required several ways of performing and then selected the most suitable one.

As requested by the director, he changed the way he performed the role and re-interpreted it.

After this performance, Director Yu directly instructed, "Next time, act a little more exaggerated."

He wanted to test this kid's limit so as to determine how much effort to put in when filming Chenxiang's scenes in the future.

The photographers, lighting and stage set staff, as well as the supporting actors who worked together for the scene, kept re-enacting the scenes over and over again with the leading actors.

They were not impatient, knowing that this was the process of the director weighing the leading actors, and after this adjustment period, the filming would go much smoother.

During this process, several actors who were sitting and watching not far away didn't care at first, but from the third retake, everyone started to take it seriously.

"This writer Xiao Chen is really talented." Xie Ning, who plays Zhu Bajie, said while holding her big belly.

Chen Chuang, who plays Roaring Sky Dog, said uncertainly, "Is this the expressionist approach?"

"Really? He shouldn't have this much accumulation at his age."

Chen Chuang looked at it carefully for a while and confirmed his guess.
"Yes, he is an expressionist. You see, he can get out of the performance state immediately after finishing the play. He is definitely not an experientialist. He can only be an expressionist."

Xie Ning scratched his chin. "It's really weird. How did he learn so many subtle controls and design methods at such a young age?"

Jiao Enjun's expression suddenly became solemn.

In name, Chenxiang is the protagonist of this play, but in reality, there are two male protagonists. The Erlang Shen he plays is a villain in the early stage, but after a reversal in the later stage, it is easier for him to stand out. Originally, his mentality was to sit back and relax.

But now, firstly, he heard that the script needed to be changed, and secondly, this young actor who was famous as a writer suddenly showed great acting skills, which put him under tremendous pressure.

Shu Chang watched several people discussing Chen Linfeng's acting skills and smiled without saying anything.

When Jiao Enjun saw Shu Chang’s smile, his heart moved.

He asked tentatively, "Shu Chang, do you know anything about the acting skills of this writer Xiao Chen?"

Yes, these two people are classmates, she might know something.

Several people reacted and waited curiously for Shu Chang's answer.

This kind of thing would spread sooner or later, so Shu Chang did not hide it and gave a brief account of what Chen Linfeng had done last semester.

"Ouch!" Xie Ning slapped her thick thighs. "I'm so jealous. Why didn't my mom make me a genius?"

Chen Chuang complained, "Is there anyone as talented as you at playing a pig?"

Xie Ning retorted, "You're not much better than me as a dog actor."

The pig and dog duo are arguing here.

Park Si-yeon from South Korea asked the translator in surprise, "This actor should be young, right?"

She wondered if this person was born with a tender face.

The translator was a fan of Chen Linfeng's books. She was watching him act with shining eyes. She said without turning her head, "Of course not. Born in 1988, she is only 16 years old now."

"Ah?" Park Si-yeon covered her mouth with her hand. "Then why is his acting so good? Is he from a family of actors?"

The translator was very happy that the other party praised her idol, "No, he is from a martial arts family, a nationally renowned genius, and his main achievements are in the field of literary publishing..."

She gave a detailed introduction to Chen Linfeng's experience and knew the sales and reviews of his various works like the back of her hand.

Park Si-yeon listened to the exaggerated achievements around her and looked at the young actor who played Chenxiang with affection.

"Alas, it's a pity that he is not yet an adult and is a foreigner. Otherwise, I would definitely find a way to take him down. Such a lovely genius is really lovable."

She was constantly brewing all kinds of unpredictable thoughts in her mind, and completely forgot that she was playing the role of the Third Holy Mother, Chenxiang's mother, in this play.

This was done for nearly ten consecutive takes, with Chen Linfeng using a different approach each time. In the end, the difference between each performance was not that big.

Yu Shengming secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that it was not that outrageous. He was not as good as those top actors who could perform in ten or twenty different ways.

When this scene was finally over, the staff began setting up the scene for the next scene.

Chen Linfeng went to the director's monitor to watch the playback.

Yu Shengming experienced the peak of the sequel, and he has higher pursuit for this Lotus Lantern, and his shooting techniques and camera angles are quite remarkable.

He studied photography before and now he is coming to me.

Really...

However, he had already gotten used to this kid's stealing of knowledge when he was still a kid, and now he didn't care about it at all.

He also gave some specific pointers on the purpose of taking the photo just now, and Chen Linfeng took it to heart.

After the communication, the director also needs to look at the staff's layout of the scene.

Chen Linfeng left on his own accord and walked towards the rest area.

He picked up the down jacket on the chair, put it on quickly, zipped it up, felt the rising temperature, and breathed a sigh of relief.

The temperature in February is still very cold, and the thickness of the film is not enough to block the cold air.

At this moment, he suddenly realized something was wrong. Several people around him were looking at him as if he were a monster.

"what happened?"

Chen Linfeng glanced at his body. Is everything okay?

"It's okay, we're just having fun."

Xie Ning pulled Chen Linfeng's chair next to her and enthusiastically pushed him onto the chair.

"Xiao Chen, besides your accumulation of teenage roles, do you have any middle-aged roles in your acting repertoire? Can you give me an example, like a middle-aged greasy fat man?"

"Why don't you just ask someone to teach you how to play Zhu Bajie?"

Chen Chuang also came over and said flatteringly, "Ignore him. You have such a good figure. Why would a normal person want to learn how to act like a fat guy?"

He hesitated for a while and said, "If you have a more suitable method for playing a dog, you can teach me. I am a very eager to learn person."

"A dog's behavior is not something a normal person would learn!"

"Go away, don't bother me asking for advice."

Chen Linfeng watched the two people tug at each other with a smile, feeling very relieved.

As expected, an actor's performance still counts for his acting skills. In the past few days on the crew, except for Shu Chang, everyone else always showed more respect than closeness to him.

Especially when he heard that the director wanted to change the script because of him, he stayed away from him even more.

But now they are much more enthusiastic, and it is obvious that they regard him as an actor rather than an author, and an insider.

Chen Linfeng is not a person who puts on airs. Since someone is willing to accept him, he will naturally try his best to integrate into the group.

After all, the shooting lasted for more than three months. It would be tiring to be pretending to be polite to others for such a long time.

"Let's address each other according to the characters in the play. I am Chenxiang, just call me Chenxiang."

"Okay then, Chenxiang, you see, I, Lao Zhu, am your first master. Master, I'm a little busy, so you can't refuse to help, right?" Xie Ning seized the opportunity to speak up.

Chen Chuang quickly followed.

The three of them began to discuss acting.

Soon, Jiao Enjun and Shu Chang also joined in.

The other main actors currently have few roles and are not in the crew, so these people seem to be developing into a small group.
