Eat this toad [Entertainment]
Chapter 57
Because of the strong financial resources of the investors as support, Cheng Dao never rushes to film, and the progress is not fast every day, as if he is carefully polishing a piece of art.
But that doesn't mean the actor has an easy life.Director Cheng said that his crew is like a blacksmith's shop, whether it's actors, screenwriters or staff, once you come in, you have to be made into a certain type and look like you.
After finishing work every day, he would gather the actors together in the hotel room for "classes" and analyze the inner changes of the characters he played in each scene.
"What is a movie?" Director Cheng knocked on the table, "A movie is to condense the emotions and feelings of ordinary people in their daily life in one or two hours, and refine it into a peak experience. So the emotions in movies are inherently concentrated. Yes, there is no need for any exaggeration, or it will be too much. You should have seen so-and-so's comedy, how does it feel? It's exaggerated, it's funny, right? But what is the exaggeration? It's the body movements, it's the scene The settings are these things. The emotions of the characters are not exaggerated at all, on the contrary, they are very restrained and very real, so they can handle such an exaggerated plot, and it seems to be the case, without fuss or fuss."
I don't know whether it was intentional or not, Director Cheng paused for a moment, and glanced in Bai Pu's direction, "So I really hate some actors who tell me all day long, 'I think this scene should use what kind of style. When you think like this, your acting skills are already at the second- and third-rate level, because we are not like this in daily life. For example, the emotion of anger, when you are angry in reality, you will Do you think about 'what kind of expression should I make at this time'? You don't think about anything, you only have the emotion of 'anger' in your heart, nothing else. A first-class actor cares about what's going on in the character's heart What, second-rate actors care about what happens to their characters' faces, and third-rate actors care about what happens to their own faces."
There was a burst of laughter in the room.Bai Pu also smiled, pressing his fingernails against the edge of the table.Director Cheng should not be talking about him, he has never spoken to Director Cheng.But to him, the words were particularly harsh.When he was acting, he really only cared about what happened to his face, whether his expression was handsome enough, and whether his angle was straight enough.
"My play is both difficult and easy to say." Director Cheng took a puff of cigarette and looked at everyone in the room. It doesn't matter at all, because I ask you to forget all your previous acting experience and just think about this." Director Cheng pointed to his chest, "If you have a play in your heart, you must have a play on your face, and you don't have to think about how to act at all. "
Bai Pu secretly glanced at Su Jinjiang.
Su Jinjiang was leaning against the back of the red suede chair, with a pen in his hand, and his eyes fell on the notebook full of words on his lap.It is very clean and quiet, just like the young hero walking on snow in the movie.
After Cheng Dao's "class" time ended, Bai Pu was going back to his room.Tomorrow there will be a scene between him and Su Jinjiang, which will also be his last scene in the crew of "Song of White Snow".He doesn't have many scenes, and after returning to the city in the future, it will be enough to shoot a few studio scenes.
According to Cheng Dao's intention, the actors who have a rival play have to act against each other the day before.Bai Pu walked fast, afraid of being stopped by Cheng Dao. "mountain, and. 氵, evening"
Director Cheng didn't call him, but Su Jinjiang walked towards him and said softly, "Brother Bai, let's chat for a while?"
Bai Pu had no choice but to turn around.Director Cheng was still standing at the door of the room, smoking a cigarette, looking this way.Bai Pu's scalp tightened, and the words of refusal were blocked in his mouth, and he only said one word: "OK."
There is a gravel space in front of the hotel building, with a good view, facing the snow-capped mountains in the distance.The white top of the mountain is a little dim in the twilight.
The two of them stood in this open space and went through the lines.
The character played by Bai Pu is the protagonist's opponent and was once a martial arts prodigy, who was supposed to inherit the position of martial arts leader.However, he became obsessed in his practice, and his martial arts were almost completely abolished. He had to learn the skill of spraying poison with a hidden weapon.Hearing that the protagonist succeeded as the leader of the martial arts alliance, he was filled with jealousy and secretly sneaked back to take revenge.After being defeated by the protagonist three times in a row, he escaped with injuries, but was ambushed by his enemies halfway, and ended up in a tragic end.
This is a tragic character, caught in the vortex of his own personality, trying to defeat his imaginary opponent time and time again, but the result is always the opposite.
Bai Pu didn't like this role very much.It seemed to him that there was something ominous about the character's fate that made him uncomfortable.But Liu Yu said that this role is a subversion of Bai Pu's previous image. If he plays well, he is likely to become popular again.
After finishing the words, the two of them did not speak for a while, and each lit a cigarette.
Bai Pu looked at the sky, and under the clouds in the distance, the outline of the snow-capped mountains became somewhat ethereal in the smog.This was the first time he was alone with Su Jinjiang, and it might also be the last time.
"Brother Bai." Su Jinjiang also looked at the mountain, and his voice was the same as when he was stopped by Cheng Dao's door just now, softly and without extra emotion, "Actually, I have wanted to talk to you a long time ago. We talked, but we didn't find the right opportunity."
Bai Pu didn't answer.He was a little uncertain which one Su Jinjiang was acting, as if he was beating him, but also as if he was sincere.If it was in the past, how could he have talked with Su Jinjiang on an equal footing, even looking at each other more would be condescending.But now, perhaps because Su Jinjiang has turned himself into the protagonist, he feels overwhelmed by the opponent.
"Brother Bai has been taking care of me for such a long time, and I have learned a lot." Su Jinjiang said, "The entertainment industry is so big, I may not have the opportunity to work with Brother Bai again in the future. I sincerely hope that we will can develop better.”
Su Jinjiang didn't say much, but his meaning was very clear: I know what you did, the entertainment industry is so big, it's better to go to the sky from now on, each side, don't get in the way of anyone, it's good for everyone .
He spoke politely and his words were tight.Bai Pu understood what he meant, but he couldn't find fault with his words.
Su Jinjiang didn't stay long, and went back after saying this.Bai Pu turned around twice, and finished smoking another cigarette outside.The cool air coming from the snow-capped mountains slightly relieved the anxiety accumulated in his chest, making him surprisingly calm at this moment.
For a moment, Bai Pu felt as if he had figured out something.The object of his resentment may not be Su Jinjiang himself.
Su Jinjiang is indeed very similar to him when he first debuted, no wonder the media compares them from time to time.The difference is that Bai Pu took a fork in the road unknowingly, while Su Jinjiang is walking along the route that Bai Pu once planned for himself, without deviating even a step.
Therefore, the existence of Su Jinjiang can always arouse all of Bai Pu's hostility.In front of Su Jinjiang's road, he clearly saw a destination, which was impossible for him to reach now.Every step Su Jinjiang took reminded him of this fact.
Bai Pu suddenly became inexplicably tired.Forget it.Since seeing Su Jinjiang would trigger his own pain, why should he keep his eyes on Su Jinjiang.Now that you know that you have gone astray and can't return to the original route, then go on along the road in front of you, isn't it okay?
So be it.Bai Pu thought.After the filming of "Song of White Snow", I will never deal with Su Jinjiang again.I still have a long way to go, why is it necessary to fight with a mere Su Jinjiang here?
Thinking of this, Bai Pu suddenly felt a long-lost relaxation, as if a mountain that had been pressing on his heart had been loosened.
The next day, when Bai Pu left the film crew, Su Jinjiang was about to shoot a scene where the protagonist became the leader of the martial arts alliance.
Bai Pu took a look from afar.Su Jinjiang put on his coat and got into the car, ready to go to the shooting scene.Xiao Ning and a group of staff hugged each other, but no one noticed Bai Pu in the distance.
This situation is very similar to when filming "Hongmeng", except that his and Su Jinjiang's positions have been switched.What's more, Su Jinjiang had a good relationship with several B-group actors in the "Hongmeng" crew, and when he left, someone even sent him to see him off.Bai Pu can't get along with anyone here, except for his assistant Jiao Xin and the driver who took him to the airport, there is no one else around him.
"Let's go," Jiao Xin dragged the suitcase and walked downstairs to the hotel, followed Bai Pu's gaze, "Oh, leave him alone. That kind of person won't be popular for a few days, don't look at him jumping around now Had a great time…”
She was rambling on, and Bai Pu became irritable again, "Okay, the driver is here, let's put the luggage on the car."
In his heart, he hated this woman.
Jiao Xin is the obscene older sister of his obsequious cousin, and the relationship between the two is so far away that they don't even know what to call them.This woman has neither working ability nor winking, and the only advantage is probably that she can swear at others through her mouth.The reason why I haven't replaced her is mainly because I think she is still reliable.After all, with some relatives, compared with outsiders, it is always a little more credible.
On the way to the car drive, Bai Pu turned on the mobile phone network and checked his Weibo.He hasn't been on Weibo for a while, because there is nothing to read.Although he has a large number of fans, but very few are active, Bai Pu wonders if his brain has blocked part of the memory of buying zombie fans.
The latest Weibo was posted by him before the opening ceremony of "Song of White Snow", and the number of comments below is relatively large.Bai Pu clicked in and took a look, and there was a bang in his eardrums—everyone in the hot reviews were criticizing his acting skills, vicious, vulgar, and full of hostility.
Bai Pu is good at trolling people, but this does not mean that he is good at dealing with trolls.On the contrary, many people who are used to condescending and pointing at others have the least idea when they encounter things.Maybe it's because I'm too used to looking at problems as an outsider, and never consider what kind of perspective and feeling it would be like to be in it.Therefore, once you become the person involved, the experience of an "outsider" is no longer available, and you don't know how to deal with it at all.
In his rage, Bai Pu ignored a detail: the routine used by the group of people who sprayed him was almost the same as the method he used to instigate people to criticize Liang Zijie.
But that doesn't mean the actor has an easy life.Director Cheng said that his crew is like a blacksmith's shop, whether it's actors, screenwriters or staff, once you come in, you have to be made into a certain type and look like you.
