Exploring the Entertainment Circle [Ancient and Modern]

Chapter 16 It's time to start filming

Tao Qingfeng thought to himself, on Lisa and Su Xun's side, he was able to explain his understanding of Prince Guangji at the ribbon-cutting ceremony because he had crammed a lot of books during this period.So he felt that in the crew on weekdays, he had to consolidate this image in order to realize this change.After all, what Lisa meant was that Xinghui's management also had people on the crew, and they had been paying attention to Tao Qingfeng's daily filming.

In addition, Tao Qingfeng hopes that Shazhou can finish this one sooner, so that the assistant director can guide his performance sooner.In order to earn enough [-] million liquidated damages as soon as possible, the sooner he can improve his work, the better.

So Tao Qingfeng narrated the records in the history books, and said with emotion: "Liu Xingluan's pain came from the hearty sword on the battlefield, and it could not cut off the heavy cloud over the imperial city. But he has a sword in his hand and a fire in his heart, even if The sword is a lonely sword, and the fire is a sinking fire, but a strong heart can still feel the sound of the sword, and the fire has never been extinguished on the way. So I think the general should smile more openly. Although it is painful, he is proud. This is "The Empress In the History of Daxing, it is said that "a strong heart feels that this lonely sword is screaming, and the fire is still in the ashes. ※'The reason".

As Tao Qingfeng said, he unconsciously recited the records in the "History of Post-Daxing": "Liu Gangu was destined to prosper and stagnate in the imperial court all his life, and for 40 years he was imprisoned. When a hero came out of the common aspirations, he climbed the dragon and met the Ming Lord in his life. , don’t be greedy for the name of the honorable king. The last words left are: the mountain scenery on the border... what a tomb field. You should be so open-minded about everything behind you, you should let go of your smile.”

It was only after Tao Qingfeng finished speaking that he realized that Shazhou was stunned.Standing not far away was an assistant director who was completely numb from the mineral water dripping down his body. They were staring at Tao Qingfeng with strange eyes.

Tao Qingfeng was used to being stared at with a dumbfounded expression, so he took the initiative to explain: "I've read some books, and I have a quick view. Shazhou, you can refer to it, and mainly listen to the assistant director."

I stumbled when I read the unfamiliar title of the new job.

Shazhou had already put away the poker smiley face of the entertainment circle, the shock and awe on his face were real, and he said, "Tao Qing, please, can you say it again?"

Poor Shazhou, he only understands about half of it, but he can feel that in the few sentences he understands, all kinds of psychology that are limited to dialogue in the script and not described in the script are ready to come out—these are originally the actors who got the script. , The most difficult part is to figure out the movements and expressions by yourself.Even sometimes, the psychology of the characters behind the lines written by the screenwriter is completely different from what the actors understand. Naturally, it is difficult to enter the play and cannot make appropriate movements and expressions.

Before Tao Qingfeng opened his mouth, the assistant director had already disposed of the mineral water bottle, and even though his clothes were wet, he called his assistant to help change it, and at the same time praised Tao Qingfeng——

"Tao Qing, you really did a lot of homework. What you said at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, I watched the video later. I thought you were just going to learn about Prince Guangji. It seems that you know a lot. Shazhou, what Tao Qing said just now I will tell you about the material, and that direction of understanding is very good. You can let go of a little laugh."

Shazhou smiled at Tao Qingfeng, nodded in agreement with the assistant director, and then threw himself into the intense rehearsal.It's just that he couldn't hide the confusion in his eyes when he looked at Tao Qingfeng—how many books did he have to read, not only Prince Guangji's, but also memorized them all.Was it because Tao Qing made up his mind to change his ways after making a fool of himself on the show before, and made up intensive lessons like a devil?

But Shazhou always felt that Tao Qing exudes that kind of temperament, which is not at all like a half-way monk who is busy learning knowledge, as if he has long been immersed in poetry and books, and has a graceful bearing.

Shazhou has always had a sense of superiority in front of Tao Qing, because Tao Qing has debuted for seven or eight years, while Shazhou has only debuted for two or three years, but he has already surpassed his celebrity status. The resources and follow-up are better, and the popularity and fans are also more. .After all, Shazhou came from a major in the Film Academy, so he thinks he is much better than Tao Qing, who has never graduated from elementary school.

Although their lines are all little fresh meat idols who sell face, but in one sentence when Shazhou fans "rice porridge" and Tao Qing fans "ceramic" fought - don't jump over the level to touch porcelain.

But today... For the first time, Shazhou felt that he was not as good as Tao Qingliang in this matter.He secretly made up his mind that he must make up for it later.Tao Qing can memorize it so well, and he has been admitted to the best film university in a serious culture class, so it doesn't make sense to lose to him in this aspect.

After waiting for another hour, the audition practice on Shazhou's side finally came to an end, and it was time to go to the director's side for actual filming.

The assistant director drank a few sips of water, rested for 5 minutes, and prepared to familiarize Tao Qingfeng with the first scene since joining the group.

Prince Guangji's roles add up to about ten minutes, and there are five scenes in total, four of which have to be played with other actors, and only one is solo.In order to reduce stress and save time, the first scene was filmed for the single person.

In this scene, in the middle of the story, the one-man show in which Prince Guangji prepares to remind his elder brother Emperor Tiansheng to implement more benevolent government and write a memorial.

When the Daxing Dynasty was first established, everything was destroyed and the state government was unstable. Emperor Tiansheng's subordinates, whether civil servants or generals, were implementing more radical and thunderous suppression methods to consolidate the victory of the dynasty.Emperor Tiansheng was a very insightful statesman. He knew that at this time, he should indeed use an iron fist to suppress all evil spirits.

However, Prince Guangji was too kind-hearted, and he couldn't bear to see a bunch of old and powerful ministers suffer.In addition, many former powers who have been implicated are actually innocent.Prince Guangji stayed up for three days and two nights, and wrote an article "Huairen" to Emperor Tiansheng.This was included in his literary theory "Six Words" by later generations.

In this scene, Prince Guangji stayed up all night to write the memorial, thinking about those begging voices while writing; but he also knew that Emperor Tiansheng might not be able to accept it.I also don't want any hidden dangers left behind by the new court that I worked so hard to build... So Prince Guangji's mood in writing this letter is very tangled: one is conscience, the other is reason:

Prince Guangji didn't want to disobey Emperor Tiansheng, nor did he want to interfere too much in political decisions, but he couldn't refuse those who begged him for help.I racked my brains when writing the memorial, and it is sincere, sincere, and reasonable. It is a masterpiece with brilliant literary talent and sincere feelings.

In the eyes of the assistant director, this one-man show is actually very easy to perform, and it doesn't require him to perform psychological changes like lecturing to Shazhou.

Tao Qingfeng only needs to condense a half-tearful expression, and when the time comes technical processing will be superimposed and cut with the images of those begging people.The camera moves, and a picture of memorabilia written with a brush is captured—you don’t need Tao Qing to write it yourself, find someone to do it for you, and then find a written "Huai Ren", post-processing together...

So the assistant director told Tao Qingfeng: What you want to act is a tearful expression of "can't bear it".

Tao Qingfeng has read this part of the script, so his understanding is naturally in place.But he had never acted: what he could understand was not the same thing as being able to act.

Tao Qingfeng thought: It is very difficult for him to fake cry, first think about the sad things of real crying.

This morning, Tao Qingfeng entrusted Aunt Shen to buy paper money for joss sticks. He thought of the 380 people who died, and where their souls drifted to... Tao Qingfeng let the pain soak into him, and tears really rolled down his face.

But the assistant director hurriedly stopped and shook his head: "Tao Qing, your crying face seems to be that you are parting from life and death. This is not right, try again."

Tao Qingfeng was really sad at this moment, it took him a while to calm down and wipe away his tears.

Then he continued to follow the assistant director's request, to perform the expression of "unbearable".Tao Qingfeng didn't know the knowledge of acting, and thinking of the method of empathy taught by the assistant director to Shazhou just now, he thought: I must first enter the mental state of "unbearable".

He turned his head and said to the assistant director: Please give me a little bit of time.

Not mentioning the assistant director, he was stunned for a moment to convert a stick of incense into a few minutes. Tao Qingfeng put himself in the shoes of Prince Guangji, recited the whole chapter of "Huairen" in his heart, and thought about the prince's virtues and kindness: "There is no evil in every square inch. , Standing on one's own feet among tigers and wolves*" calmly.As compassionate and kind as the young Buddha, he was born with a compassionate heart.

"It is benevolence to see him alive and not bear his death." ※ Tao Qingfeng murmured.The assistant director didn't hear what he was thinking clearly, but seeing Tao Qingfeng staring into the distance in a daze, he managed to squeeze out a few tears, and his eyes were misty.

Although it's not really sad, it's just trying to understand Prince Guangji's compassion, but Tao Qingfeng can easily perceive the true meaning of the eloquent and moving literary theory, and is deeply moved.

Because it was an audition, what Tao Qingfeng had in front of him was just a simple set, a dining table where the crew had boxed lunches, a piece of raw paper on the table, and a slit brush next to it.Unscrew a bottle of pen ink and use it as an inkstone.

With tears on the verge of falling, Tao Qingfeng picked up a brush and dipped it in thick ink, and wrote "Huairen" freely and smoothly on the rough-edged paper.

"The ancient benevolent monarchs could not bear the oxen. If they are innocent, they will die. It is not to abolish the bell, but to change the sheep. This is neither harmful, but it is the art of benevolence. A gentleman is like a beast. Seeing its life, he cannot bear to see it. He died; hearing his voice, he could not bear to eat his flesh...※"

The assistant director saw that Tao Qing was still holding the brush in a decent posture. Although his expression was not perfect, there were tears of restraint.Cut out the picture later, it should be able to adapt to the changed situation, and I am secretly approving it in my heart.However, when he saw the ink splattered from Tao Qingfeng's pen in the next moment, his eyes almost turned into copper bells.

Thin, elegant fonts, the brushstrokes turn and close, and there is something that cannot be offended.Such beautiful and elegant calligraphy is not inferior to professional standards.Coupled with Tao Qing's writing posture-the assistant director feels that although he is not convincing now, it is completely conceivable how eye-catching the stills of him with a high crown and splashing ink will be.

Moreover, although the assistant director couldn't memorize it, he could tell that Tao Qing had written the complete "Huiren", which was a great job.Even manual replacements can be saved, not to mention the calligrapher's "Huai Ren" to process the picture in the later stage, Tao Qing can just write it himself.
