Delusion Master

In the studio, the crew of "Dark Edge" started work at 07:30 in the morning.It is worth mentioning that due to the close proximity of the hotels, the stars including actor Shu Zhengyang all arrived on time, so director Cha Yin's mood is much better than yesterday.

Today we will be filming the male lead and female third scenes.

In the play, the first male is a criminal police team leader who specializes in hunting down serial killers, and the third female is the older sister of the first male and an executive of a multinational company.

When the two were teenagers, because their parents belonged to the sheep-herding faction of romantic self, they were away from China for a long time, so they irresponsibly left the work of raising their son to their eldest daughter.Later, my sister grew up to be a beautiful and capable strong woman with independent thinking and hot temper. She disciplined him and teased him, but at the same time she also guided him and loved him. In her shadow, I love and fear this sister.

In the whole play, the third female only appeared for less than 10 minutes near the end, but the whole process was interspersed with the transoceanic phone calls she had with the male protagonist. The close-ups showed her moving red lips and speaking voice; fingers and a piece of sleeve under the Hao wrist.She is like an indistinguishable net, hovering at a high place invisible to the audience, making people hold their breath and wait for the "snap" of the net to close, and decipher their doubts in their hearts.

This is a very important role with very few roles. She affects the mood and decision of the first male, and even affects the time to dismantle the hidden core layout of the second male, just like the one in "Waiting for Godot", who never appeared But everyone is mentioning Godot, who has a sense of presence throughout.

The only appearance of the third female is a fierce rivalry with the male first.

In the end, when the truth of all the puzzles came to light, she heard that the fiancé she had entrusted to the first man to take care of had been dumped by the second man as soon as he got off the international flight, and he had been under house arrest by the second man's subordinates until he solved the case and was rescued by the first man Come out and be sent to the hospital for treatment.And her capable criminal police brother was kept in the dark from the beginning to the end by the male second, a wanted criminal who was smarter, cunning, and extremely good at disguising, and took him by his side as a prospective brother-in-law, which almost made a big mistake.

The beginning of this scene was just before the finale. The male second who escaped from prison again was seriously injured by the gun of the male first. He almost died and fell into a coma.The third woman went to the hospital to visit her fiancé after returning to China, and after confirming that he was fine, she rushed to the apartment of the first man to question him.

"The setting is OK."

"Lighting OK."

"3, 2, 1, action!"

Shu Zhengyang was wearing casual home clothes, standing by the cooking table, cutting carrots with a knife—the script says "fighting with carrots".The male couple actually knew nothing about cooking, but some kind of responsibility, regret, and even deeper feelings prompted him to put down his usual pistol, pick up an unfamiliar table knife, and clumsily wrestle with carrots, celery, and broccoli, and then try his best to Cook a bowl of vegetable soup full of vitamins and feed it through the feeding tube of the unconscious male second.

But in the close-up shot, Shu Zhengyang’s movements of cutting vegetables are very delicate and elegant, as if he is carving flowers, and every piece of carrot is neatly arranged in a pile—what are you kidding, he has occupied the domestic market for a long time The number one of the "Top 10 Most Perfect Actors", how can he show himself as stupid as he can't handle a carrot?It will damage the perception of fans and fans of him.Besides, what is the script, what about the screenwriter and director, he is a well-deserved actor, how to deal with the details does not have to follow his interpretation.

Director Zha frowned deeply behind the camera.Professional skills and artistic literacy roared at him: Is there such an actor, huh? !The action performance is completely out of touch with the characters!

But he couldn't open his mouth to shout "Cut", as if there was an invisible force obstructing and comforting him, like continuously adding a cover to the raging flame, sucking away the oxygen necessary for combustion, resulting in a kind of unknown origin The idea of ​​coming: Shu Zhengyang did a good job here, highlighting the delicate and soft heart of the male lead under the stern and rigid surface, he is worthy of being a movie king.

So this one passed.

Immediately afterwards, the third woman stepped on high heels and broke in, walking towards the first man step by step.Two cameras, one aimed at her backlit frontal figure with invisible eyebrows, slid backwards with her steps; the other captured her back view and aggressive high-heeled shoes.

The first man looked up at her, and the knife in his hand fell to the countertop with a crisp sound.

The third woman walked straight up to the first man, showing a close-up of her face for the first time, and said, "Hehe, handsome boy, how long do you want to hide from me?"

"Cut!" Director Zha shouted.

The actress who played the elder sister felt her scalp numb, knowing that she was going to be scolded again.She is an outdated little star, and she is a bit older, so she can only barely get exposure in the frustrating entertainment programs and the endorsement of tasteless fast-moving consumer products.This time, she managed to get the performing arts company to win her a third female role in a movie with a big investment. Even though the roles were pitifully small, she was very grateful - the director was Zha Yin!She can also play with the superstar Shu Zhengyang!

So she practiced the scenes of less than 10 minutes over and over countless times to ensure that she can play the role of a sexy, mature, confident and capable strong woman.

However, he only said a line before he was stopped by the director.

"You are male one's older sister, not his girlfriend! Can you stop smiling so charmingly that it makes people feel that you are trying to seduce him?" Cha Yin raised his voice, "I said Xu Shaoyi, you are also an experienced You are an old actor, what kind of eyes and tone should be here, don't I need to remind you again?"

Xu Shaoyi listened to the training with a nod, feeling very depressed: she had clearly thought about how to act here—there was anger and threat in her smile, and the look in the male lead's eyes should be strong and oppressive.It is true that she loves her brother, but this love has formed a unique way of expression over the years in the discipline of both verbal and hands-on, domineering teasing and distressing coexistence.

But everything she had figured out fell apart in an instant in front of Shu Zhengyang.Looking at the other person's face, there was only one sentence in her mind whistling and circling - I love Shu Zhengyang so much, love him so much, love him so much, I would give my life for him to just keep looking at me like this...

This is too scary, it's like being possessed by a demon!

While admonishing herself with trepidation, she couldn't help but love him wildly.

This feeling made Xu Shaoyi almost split into two pieces, how could he concentrate on acting?

So she ate two more "ng" one after another, and she was about to cry in shame.Shu Zhengyang stood beside her and watched her being scolded, and occasionally comforted her lightly: "It's okay, take your time, did I put too much pressure on you?"

One sentence made Xu Shaoyi both heartbroken and self-hateful. He tried his best to adjust his state, and finally passed this one.

Filming of the interior of the apartment continues.

The man took half a step back and said hello: "...Sister."

——According to the meaning of the script, this greeting is "dry", full of guilt, guilt and fear towards my sister.Of course, it was impossible for Shu Zhengyang to let himself show such a restrained demeanor, so he used "understatement" instead.

In the next scene, the third woman casually grabbed the knife on the cooking table and chopped it vigorously without looking at it. The carrot snapped into two pieces.She said word by word: "I think, you owe me, a lot, a lot, an explanation." At the same time, she raised the knife with her hand, and cut the radish into angry diced radish with one word.

Xu Shaoyi knew that she should pay attention to the coordination of actions and lines:

The once stable and obedient younger brother kept her in the dark about the bag swap incident, failed to save her fiancé in the first place, and even left the perpetrator at home—the serial killer who was seriously injured and unconscious. She is dissatisfied.So every word here shoots out of his mouth like a small, thin blade, full of irritation and blame.This continuous "chopping" movement in the hands must be strong and cold, reflecting the strong and violent side of the sister.

However, an accident happened suddenly at this moment——

When the table knife was vigorously chopping carrots, the blade suddenly broke away from the handle, knocked against the chopping board with the inertia of her movements, and flung it backwards.

Xu Shaoyi let out a terrified scream.

The blade sliced ​​through her clothes and cut a deep gash on her arm. Blood gushed out instantly, staining the entire sleeve red.

Fortunately, when the blade flew over, she subconsciously avoided it, otherwise she was afraid that it would plunge into her waist.

A bunch of people gathered around.Xu Shaoyi's assistant frantically found disinfectant and bandages to wrap her up.

"Quickly, send it to the hospital!" The assistant director beckoned the director to drive quickly.

The scene was chaotic.

The director inspected Xu Shaoyi's wound and found that the injury was a bit serious, and he might have to go to the hospital for more than a dozen stitches.The arm was injured, and the next scene could not be completed-there is still an action scene with the third female and the first male.

The medical expenses are covered by the insurance company. Even if it is about work-related compensation, it is the producer's business. As the director, he must first ensure the progress of the filming.

You must know that once the crew starts up, it is like a production line that performs its own duties. It burns a lot of money every day. All functional personnel must cooperate highly, otherwise one of the links will lose the chain, and it will be a vicious circle.

Now there is something wrong with the third female, so I have to find a stand-in to take over first, and wait for Xu Shaoyi to recover from his injury before taking another facial shot.

It's just that the requirements for this stand-in are relatively high. Not only must they have a tall figure and a strong aura, but they must also have some movement skills and be able to shoot fighting scenes.

Thinking of the "powerful aura", a figure suddenly appeared in Director Zha's mind——

He immediately took out his mobile phone and took out a snap photo.In the courtyard at night, the street lights are not good, but you can vaguely see the queen-like figure in the photo. Cha Yin repeatedly called the assistant director to come over and take a look: "Is this so? Is it suitable for the role of Li Moli?"

The assistant director was in charge of casting the crew, and he hit it right at a glance: "It's suitable! It's so suitable, Bi Xu—" He swallowed back the second half of the not-so-kind sentence, and then looked at it carefully, "Hey, what do I think? Does she look familiar?"

Cha Yin said: "She lives in the same hotel as us, and is also in the villa area. You may have seen her last night or this morning."

The assistant director shook his head: "No, if I met her in person, I would definitely have a very deep impression... By the way, I remembered! It's an email address. A performing arts company sent me her resume two days ago! But that At that time, all the roles had already been decided, I felt very regretful after seeing the photos, so I put it there for now, and I will ask her to audition when I have other film and television opportunities in the future.”

Since the other party is an actor, it is much easier to get in touch, Cha Yin urged: "Name! Contact information!"

"Bai Yuanyuan. I left her manager's phone number in the email. I'll look for it."

One minute later, Wei Lin was sitting in the nanny car in the parking lot outside the studio, and received a call from the great director Zha Yin himself.

"I'm Zha Yin."

"Ah, Director Zha, hello, hello! I'm Wei Lin, Sister Bai's manager."

"I saw the resume you sent. I have a big show here. The third female has an accident and needs someone to replace her. I wonder if Ms. Bai Yuanyuan is willing to take it?" Cha Yin paused briefly, worried that the other party would listen Said that the stand-in would decline, and added, "Because you were a little late in submitting your resume, and the roles in the play have already been decided. Ms. Bai might as well try it out. If you feel good, there will be opportunities for in-depth cooperation in the future."

Director Zha expressed his meaning very clearly, and it has already surpassed the speed of speaking in his capacity-you should act as a stand-in first, and when I look back at my new play, I will give you consideration for the number one role.

Bai Yuan smiled slightly, took Wei Lin's cell phone, and replied with a magnetic mezzo-soprano: "Why would I not want to accept Director Cha's invitation?"
