light and shadow [entertainment circle]

At breakfast, Guan Shan finally knew the reason why Xia Zhi suddenly ran back to sleep with him last night.Then, he nearly rolled under the dining table.

"Shan! Brother!" Xia Zhi complained in a long voice with extreme displeasure, "You, Ju, Ran, Xiao, me?"

"No...haha cough cough cough... no... cough cough..." Guan Shan coughed for a while before recovering, and immediately accused Cai Zhenghao righteously. "It seems that Cai Zhenghao is ignorant. Our Xia Zhi is the boss of Guangying. How can he let you 'scroll'? You wait, Brother Shan will call and scold him after dinner! Let Xia Zhi vent his anger!"

"Brother Shan, I'm 22, not 12!" Xia Zhi became more and more dissatisfied.

"That's right...the fourth movie has been filmed..." Guan Shan finally straightened his face and sighed, "I can no longer be regarded as a newcomer who doesn't know anything. So, whose problem do you think this is?"

"Uh..." Xia Zhi suffocated immediately, and cast a slightly guilty gaze over half a sandwich, "...Me?"

Guan Shan looked at him calmly, without speaking or moving, but the coercion in his eyes made people dare not give birth to the slightest disobedience.After nine years of hard work in the mall, although time has not left too many marks on Guan Shan's appearance, it has actually tempered his inner heart to become more and more ruthless.

But Xia Zhi had never seen Guan Shan treat him with such an attitude, and immediately yelled full of grievances: "What did I say wrong? Pei Luo's behavior before and after is not right!"

Guan Shan sighed helplessly, and said kindly: "Xia Zhi, an excellent actor can turn decay into magic, while a poor actor can do the opposite. A movie lasts for two hours, and it needs to be completed within these two hours. Fully show the character's mental journey, let the audience agree that every behavior, every choice, and every change of the character is credible and well-founded, relying on the meticulous performance of the actors, not the meticulous performance of the screenwriter description."

"I know..." Although Xia Zhi has a carefree personality, he has always been serious about discussing performances with others, and he really likes this job. "Whether the character is plump or not depends on the actors themselves. I have paid enough attention to the shaping of Pei Luo, and I have read a lot of fashion magazines! But in the script, his performance is split from front to back! If I If I can't even convince myself, how can I convince the audience with my performance?"

"Xia Zhi, that's up to you. In fact, Director Cai has made it clear to you from the very beginning that romance films are women's AVs, with female characters as the protagonists, and all plots are only for the heroine. As for The hero, in a sense, is just a prop that the heroine labels as a love object. The audience will not pay attention to the hero's mental journey, and will not care how he fell in love with the heroine, they only pay attention to the hero Whether you are handsome or not, and whether you have charm. This time, you are a supporting role, and the screenwriter will not spend too much time on the supporting role, and the supporting role only needs to serve the protagonist." Guan Shan replied sharply.

Xia Zhi was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "But if I only need to play a supporting role in the script and be a qualified love prop, Brother Shan will not let me take this script."

"That's right." Guan Shan then gave a slightly relieved smile, "When making a movie, big-name stars play the leading roles, and secondary actors play supporting roles. This is the market's orientation. But from the perspective of the performance itself, sometimes it is better to play a supporting role than to play a good role. The main character is harder."

"...There are highlights, but you can't steal the show?" Xia Zhi pondered for a long time before giving his answer.

"Yes!" Guan Shan was finally relieved, and leaned back in the chair relaxedly. "Director Cai is a very open-minded director. As long as it doesn't affect the main line of the script, how Pei Luo should act...it's up to you."

Xia Zhi swallowed the rest of the sandwich in two bites, and immediately asked: "Brother Shan, I want to ask for leave! I only did half of the homework I did for this script before. I only thought about how to make the heroine fall in love with the hero, but I didn't I have thought about how to make the male protagonist fall in love with the female protagonist, I need time to make up lessons!"

"I've already asked for leave!" Guan Shan gave him a helpless look.The protagonist of the film disappeared from the set for a whole night, and Li Zhiyi called early in the morning to ask about his whereabouts.Counting on Xia Zhi to think of asking for leave, the day lily is really cold, and all kinds of rumors are probably full of Weibo. "Director Cai said that he can give you two days off. I hope that the next time I see you, you will stop looking at Lan Ying with the expression 'you betrayed the revolution'!"

Xia Zhi smiled embarrassedly, but before she could speak, Sister Ling suddenly walked in and said, "Mr. Guan, the clothes are already packed. Do you need to take away any books in your study?"

"Huh?" Xia Zhi immediately wondered, "Brother Shan, you are going on a business trip? Why didn't I know?"

"Oh, it's not a business trip. I've been busy with acquisitions recently, and I'm planning to temporarily move to the apartment closer to the company." He was obviously answering Xia Zhi's question, but for some reason, Guan Shan's gaze was unconscious The ground moved away from Xia Zhi's face, as if he didn't dare to look at him at all.

Reluctantly, Xia Zhi's nerves have always been as strong as bridge piers across the sea, so of course no abnormalities were found.Therefore, he only replied: "That's it... Sister Ling, please pack my clothes too, I will move with Brother Shan."

"Nonsense! It's a good place to live here, what are you moving?" Unexpectedly, Guan Shan had already scolded him as soon as he finished speaking.

Xia Zhi pointed at Guan Shan and himself with a blank expression, and answered confidently: "We are brothers in the house, and we live separately? Such a big house, how deserted!"

Guan Shan choked when he heard the words, but before he could speak, Xia Zhi's gaze unconsciously froze.Xia Zhi was stunned for a while, then suddenly murmured in a low voice: "Lonely...that's the reason!" The next second, he quickly dropped the napkin and stood up. "Brother Shan, I thought of it!" After finishing speaking, regardless of whether Guan Shan understood or not, he rushed upstairs on his own.

Guan Shan, who was left in the restaurant, was also taken aback.But after a while, he shook his head and sighed secretly: Is it just loneliness?Loneliness can give birth to love, but love is never just because of loneliness... Of course, if it is just a movie, a modern commercial romance film, this explanation is more than enough.Thinking of this, Guan Shan couldn't help but smile again.

"Mr. Guan, do you still want to tidy up Xia Zhi's clothes?" Fortunately, Sister Ling asked quickly, and did not let Guan Shan indulge in her own emotions.

"No need." Guan Shan responded casually.After a pause, he added another sentence. "Put my clothes back too." With Guan Shan's current wealth, he must have a driver when traveling.Even if you are busy with business, you can work in the car to buy time. Why do you need to move to an apartment closer to the company?At this time, Guan Shan was suddenly very grateful for Xia Zhi's dullness, and sincerely hoped that he would remain so dull forever.

Just because the summer solstice was at home, Guan Shan suddenly moved up from 11:8 pm to [-]:[-] pm when he finished work that day.Unexpectedly, when he returned home excitedly, Xia Zhi actually locked himself in the study.

Seeing that Guan Shan was about to enter the study, Sister Ling hurriedly handed him a freshly made fruit yogurt, and complained worriedly: "I shut myself in the study all day, and didn't eat much for dinner."

Guan Shan took the yogurt and immediately promised: "I will let him finish this."

In the study room, Xia Zhi was writing furiously at the computer. It turned out that he had been writing character analysis for the role of Pei Luo all day long.

Guan Shan stepped forward and scanned the computer screen, noticing that Xia Zhi had written more than 3 characters, he immediately smiled. "Director Cai will definitely be very satisfied with your work attitude." As he spoke, he stuffed the yogurt into Xia Zhi's hand. "Eat something and take a rest first, let Brother Shan help you take a look."

"Okay!" Xia Zhi immediately gave up his seat, sat cross-legged on the sofa opposite, and enjoyed Sister Ling's loving yogurt.Although Xia Zhi is an adult, she still looks childish when eating.For example, when eating this yogurt, he will patiently pick out the blueberries and eat them first, then cherries, yellow peaches, and finally mangoes.When the fruit is finished, he will start stirring the yogurt vigorously.Sister Ling was "fortunate" to watch twice, and each time she regretted not adding a double serving of fruit.

Regarding Pei Luo's character analysis, Xia Zhi's writing is very thorough, it can almost be said that he wrote a biography of the character.Therefore, the Pei Luo who appeared in front of Guan Shan is no longer just a labeled hero in a romance film, but a living person with a complex life background and personality traits.

For example, in the original script, Pei Luo's life experience is simply a son of a wealthy businessman.In Xia Zhi's setting for Pei Luo, it is written: When he was a teenager, his father cheated on him, and his mother died of grief early.Pei Luo has always been worried about this, turned against his father, and deliberately violated his father's expectations to devote himself to fashion design.For another example, the original script did not explain why Pei Luo still lived in the apartment that the wealthy businessman had bequeathed to Tong Tong.The summer solstice is set: because that apartment was originally the former residence of the deceased mother.

As for Pei Luo's personality traits, the original script simply put a label of "sissy, often misunderstood as a gay" in order to increase the laugh and readability.On the other hand, Xia Zhi analyzed Pei Luo from his life experience and occupation, and came to the following conclusions: he has a soft and restrained personality, was greatly influenced by his mother when he was a teenager, and was extremely sensitive to fashion.Daily life places great emphasis on quality, has a slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, and likes to iron clothes and tidy up the room.Due to the tragic marriage of her parents, she is skeptical about relationships and has few sexual friends; and because she is often harassed by the same sex, she also has few male friends.Parents are dead, relatives are estranged, no friends, very lonely outside of work.And it is precisely because of this long-term loneliness that he fell in love with Tong Tong unconsciously during the day and night with him.

As an elder brother, Guan Shan is quite satisfied with Xia Zhi's efforts; but as an investor, he still said: "The total investment of "Pure White Apartment" is 5000 million, and I will not increase the investment. Director Cai probably will not agree to Lan Ying So, how do you express the influence of Pei Luo's life experience on him?"

"It's enough to add two lines." Xia Zhi had obviously considered this point. "When arguing with Tong Tong, you can shout, 'This apartment was left to me by my mother, why did you take it away?' Because it is a quarrel, Tong Tong does not need to respond. This kind of line is for the audience. As for Small settings such as ironing clothes and tidying the room, which reflect the character of the character, can be directly added to the rivalry with Lan Ying, without affecting the plot."

Guan Shan nodded and reminded him: "Loneliness can be acted out, but it must not be said."

"Looks, temperament, the grasp of these two points is more important than the lines." Xia Zhi agreed.

"Then, the last request." Guan Shan smiled with satisfaction, "Don't overwhelm the host." "Pure White Apartment" is always a joyful romance film, the hero can be a little miserable, which makes people feel pitiful; but absolutely not It's too bad, it's like driving away customers.

Xia Zhi took advantage of the opportunity to put down the yogurt that had been hollowed out, and proposed enthusiastically, "Try it?"

Guan Shan has long been used to accompanying Xia Zhi in auditions.But this time, he was a little scared, and declined: "It seems that you don't need two days off, go to Lan Ying tomorrow to try it! Brother Shan wishes you a pass!"

"Thank you, Brother Shan!" Xia Zhi, who had always been dull, did not doubt that he was there, and immediately raised a smile.

"Okay! Take your seats! "Pure White Apartment", Scene 21, Scene 5, Action!" The director of the scene gave an order with a loudspeaker, and all the actors on the set followed suit.

The scene where Xia Zhi eats NG many times is a big show with many ensemble performances and great momentum.The script filmed Tong Tong's ex-boyfriend Lin Chengyu's company holding a masquerade party. Pei Luo and Tong Tong dressed up and sneaked into the ball scene, designing and secretly changing the masks of Pei Luo and Lin Chengyu so that Tong Tong could replace Lin Chengyu's Original partner.At the end of the song, Tong Tong and Lin Chengyu won the "Best Partner" with the excellent dancing skills that Pei Luo trained for her urgently.When the award was presented, Tong Tong showed her love in public and finally got her ex-boyfriend back.However, Pei Luo left sadly after witnessing Tong Tong and Lin Chengyu's sweet embrace.And this fifth scene is exactly the scene where Pei Luo leaves sadly after sending his love.

Generally speaking, filming this kind of big drama has always been a waste of money.During the shooting the day before yesterday, Xia Zhi was unable to enter the role and repeatedly NGed, which directly affected the cost of the film. No wonder Cai Zhenghao was furious.Now starting all over again, Lan Ying's performance is still very stable.I saw her dressed up and standing in front of the stage, her cool and charming temperament was like a pure and flawless white rose, beautiful, noble, holy, and incomparable.But her shoulders trembled slightly, and her cheeks on both sides were slightly flushed. She looked at Song Qin, the actor who played the second male lead Lin Chengyu, with tears shining and affectionate.Although she was extremely shy, the love in her heart encouraged her to tell the truth: "...for so many years, Cheng Yu has been paying for me, taking care of me, loving me, and accommodating me....I know , I will never find another man who loves me more than him in my life. So, I told myself, I must cherish it, starting from this dance....Cheng Yu, I really love you!"

Who could resist such a beautiful, innocent and stunning show of love?

——At least Lin Chengyu couldn't.

Therefore, the two quickly hugged each other tightly amidst the cheers and applause of the audience.

Now, it's the turn of the summer solstice to perform.

Two days ago, director Cai Zhenghao asked Xia Zhi to show the sadness of losing a loved one and the great sentiment of self-sacrifice, but Xia Zhi was still at a loss.Two days later, Xia Zhi still seemed to have made no progress, he even intensified his smile and applauded with the group performers around him.

After a while, Tong Tong on the stage hugged Lin Chengyu and slowly turned half a circle.She cast her eyes on Pei Luo in the crowd, and quietly made a victory gesture.The melon-eaters who didn't know why immediately whistled happily, while Pei Luo simply stretched out his hand in the air and gave two thumbs up.Tong Tong smiled triumphantly, she stopped looking at Pei Luo, but slowly buried her face in Lin Chengyu's shoulder.

Losing Tong Tong's gaze, Pei Luo couldn't help being stunned for some reason.The originally bright smile on his face froze suddenly, as if a robot that was originally running normally was suddenly unplugged, and the whole person froze in place.After a while, a trace of doubt appeared on his face, and he blinked uncomfortably, as if the power had been quietly plugged in again.However, the few seconds before the fragmentation left a faint trace in his mind, which made him doubt the world he was in for the first time.Pei Luo looked left and right, his face became more suspicious, as if he was asking: What's wrong with me?

There are perfect couples beside him.On the stage, Lin Chengyu hugged Tong Tong and couldn't stop spinning around, he was so happy.The never-ending cheers around him grew louder, but Pei Luo seemed to suddenly understand something. He lowered his head in disbelief, and then suddenly raised his head to look at the stage and took half a step forward.However, his back was stiff again, and his body leaned forward and his jaw slightly raised, as if he was competing with himself, or he was silently confronting an invisible opponent.After a few seconds, his body slowly relaxed, he raised his head and let out a long sigh.Before he finished speaking, the long sigh turned into a self-mockery at the corner of his mouth.He raised his head again, gazing peacefully at the two people on the stage with a smile on his lips, but those once pure and clear eyes were inevitably stained with sadness.Then, he turned and left, no more nostalgia.The cold moon shines quietly on his shoulders, his figure is so thin and lonely... The excitement belongs to them, but I have nothing.

"Lonely lover in the world..." Cai Zhenghao, who was sitting behind the monitor, sighed contentedly, and shouted loudly: "Cut! Good! This one is over!"

There was thunderous applause on the set.Obviously, Xia Zhi's performance was completely different from Cai Zhenghao's request. He did not show the heartbreaking loss of a loved one that Cai Zhenghao requested.But he gave seven or eight different micro-expressions in a row to show the changes in the character's mood in just one minute. His calm acting skills convinced everyone that he really moved Tong Tong's heart.

"Xia Zhi has grown up, this terrifying expressive power..." Guan Shan also sighed contentedly in the corner where there were few people outside the set.

Li Zhiyi, who was by Guan Shan's side, asked curiously, "Why doesn't Mr. Guan go in?"

Guan Shan shook his head and walked towards the set. "When the child grows up, I always have to learn to let go."

Li Zhiyi couldn't help being surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but look up at the sky: Did the sun come out from the west today?

The author has something to say:

Director: Before being sensible and after being emotional, it can only last for one day.Boss Guan, cherish the people in front of you!

Guan Shan: ...
