Compared with the two young actors, Shen Man did not have many scenes in the morning, nor did she have any scenes with big emotional ups and downs. However, Su Lingxi still admired her high efficiency, as she was chatting with her assistant in the last second and could get into the role in the next second.

The filming came to an end. After the crew prepared lunch, everyone gathered around the food truck in groups of three or four.

"Are you so self-disciplined every day?" Kang Xin walked over with a lunch box, glanced at the salad in Su Lingxi's hand, and asked curiously.

Seeing her coming over to talk to him, Su Lingxi was surprised for a moment, "Well, I usually eat these during filming."

"not hungry?"

"Occasionally, but for the sake of camera effects, it's okay to be hungry."

The air was quiet for a moment, and the two smiled at each other. The originally awkward relationship was eased a lot because of this conversation.

"How did you feel when you were acting with Teacher Shen today?" Kang Xin asked her as she got closer.

As a bystander, she could clearly feel that Su Lingxi's acting state with Shen Man had changed a lot today. Although Shen Yujie, played by Shen Man, was still full of momentum, Su Lingxi was not overshadowed by her as before. Instead, she firmly grasped the presence of the character Tong Yan and made herself the focus of everyone's attention.

Kang Xin has also acted opposite Shen Man, and knows better how difficult this is - especially when Tong Yan's character is not so likable.

Just imagine, a green and even somewhat reckless rookie in the workplace and an arrogant, beautiful and intelligent career woman in a suit. Normally, the audience will definitely be attracted to the latter, but... Su Lingxi has given the character a different kind of charm with her acting skills, making people feel that her impulsiveness and recklessness also have a unique appeal.

Even Kang Xin paid more attention to Tong Yan's every move when watching from the side.

"It feels... like participating in a tug-of-war competition. I can't relax for a moment and I have to concentrate fully on it." Su Lingxi thought for a while and said frankly.

Kang Xin agreed: "Yes, that's the feeling. If you're not careful, you'll lose everything."

The two of them compete with each other normally, but when they discuss Shen Man, they can empathize with each other.

After all, the sense of oppression that top actresses bring when acting opposite each other is no joke.

"Are you used to the crew's meals?" During their conversation, Shen Man got off the RV and greeted them with a smile.

Although she plays the role of a female devil when acting, Shen Man is actually a very gentle and calm person in private. She doesn't act like a senior to the young actors in the same crew and is not stingy with her praise for others.

Su Lingxi was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's delicious, and the portion is quite large."

Although she only ate salad and chicken drumsticks...

Shen Man didn't point it out, and calmly handed over two cups of iced latte, "It's hot today, drink something cool to cool off, and then we'll work hard together in the afternoon show."

The iced latte was filled with ice cubes, and even the walls of the cup were emitting cold steam. Su Lingxi held it gently in her hand, feeling a subtle mood.

From the first script reading session to today, she and Shen Man have met several times on the set, but they were just casual acquaintances.

So she really didn't expect that Shen Man would remember to bring her drinks when she went out.

And he only brought it to her and Kang Xin.

Sometimes the relationship between people is so strange. Just a small and insignificant gesture is enough to make people feel warm in their hearts.

Perhaps she could see the complicated emotions in Su Lingxi's eyes. After Kang Xin was called away by her agent, Shen Man chuckled and explained to her, "Teacher Ye specifically told me to be a little cooler towards you before... So it's a pity that I haven't been able to come and chat with you these days."

Teacher Ye specifically instructed? Su Lingxi glanced suspiciously at Ye Minglan who was talking to the director not far away. An idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he was able to connect the whole thing from beginning to end...

"So... Teacher Ye didn't really question me before, he just wanted to put pressure on me?" Su Lingxi was stunned, obviously not expecting the truth of the matter to be like this.

Shen Man smiled and nodded. "After the script reading session, she and I both felt that you were awkward when acting with me - you seemed very nervous, and sometimes I even felt that you were afraid of me. And this emotion seriously affected your performance as Tong Yan."

Su Lingxi pursed her lips, almost unable to refute her words.

At first, when she faced Shen Man, she was indeed scared. In her two lifetimes combined, she had never had the experience of competing with such a powerful person on the same stage, not to mention that the two of them were equals - as the co-protagonists of a movie, if she performed much worse than her, it would be very obvious on the big screen, and most of the audience could tell at a glance who was outshined by whom.

So Su Lingxi has always been worried, afraid that even if she was reborn, she would be crushed by Shen Man and become a supporting role.

"Your concerns are actually easy to understand. After all, you are still young and have just become famous because of a movie. You haven't received any awards, so it's inevitable that you don't have confidence in yourself," Shen Man clinked glasses with her iced Americano, "but I can feel that your potential has not been fully developed - you just need some stimulation and confidence, and you can play a good role in this movie."

At this point, Shen Man smiled appreciatively, "'Summer of Sixteen' is a very fresh movie. Although your performance in it is immature, it is remarkable. You are definitely one of the best among the new generation of actors."

Su Lingxi paused and said, "You are right. I still have a lot of room for improvement in acting."

"That's secondary. I just noticed the difference between you and me when acting." Shen Man smiled, with some elegant fine lines at the end of her eyes. "When playing the two roles of Guan Mingyue and Tong Yan, you never repeated the same body language. You built a unique set of movement habits for each role. In other words, you are not actually acting out the role, but completely letting yourself enter the character's mind. You are her herself."

"This is a typical experiential acting method, which requires actors to have very high talent. You are obviously very talented." Shen Man said in a gentle voice.

As the most difficult of the three acting genres, experientialism requires actors to have both the talent to liberate themselves and the talent to believe in the situation. Only one in ten thousand people can fully meet these requirements.

There are also many actors who are unable to continue and are unwilling to admit that they lack talent. Instead, they take the lead in opposing or attacking the experiential school, or even tamper with its form.
