Acting depends on immortality, cultivating immortality depends on popularity

Cheng Xuan obediently sat in front of the dressing table, allowing the makeup artist to put some dirty makeup on his face and put on a messy hair set—the emperor played by Cheng Xuan, who was born because of his favorite concubine when he was young I am afraid that these princes will use methods on the emperor to let the princes who can run and jump just off the ground be entrusted one by one, and it is called enfeoffment, but in fact these princes live like exile outside.

When the old emperor passed away, the favorite concubine had no children, and the older prince died or fell ill due to various reasons, the officials of the court hurriedly brought the prince back who was living outside.When the guards sent by the palace found the prince, he was playing with a group of village boys in the field, like a wild child without discipline.

But it was this little prince who was like a wild child. After returning to the palace, he was carefully taught by several academicians in the court, and the empress dowager listened to the government behind the curtain. Shang, quite skillful, made the dynasty prosperous for a while.It's a pity that when he got old, he cherished his reputation more and more, and indulged the veterans and concubines' families, which made the government and the people corrupt and nepotism rampant, and the dynasty gradually declined.

The emperor is a very controversial figure in this dynasty, so his role is also strong enough, accounting for a full episode and a half of the documentary.Moreover, there were many legendary stories about the emperor when he was a child, and he played a lot of roles in the play. It is really lucky for Cheng Xuan to have such an opportunity to appear on the scene.

After Chengxuan put on his makeup, the makeup artist and several actors in the dressing room looked at him one after another. Seeing that there were still a lot of broken hair floating in front of his crazy head, a middle-aged male actor who played a certain minister couldn't bear it. Can't help smiling and pointing at Chengxuan: "I said, sister Wang, you don't look like a naughty boy in Xuanxuan's drawing, how come you look like a little beggar on the side of the road?"

Cheng Xuan was used to talking poorly with Yu Li at home, and when he heard this, he immediately put his hands in the shape of holding a bowl, looked aggrieved, stretched his voice, and said pitifully to Wang's make-up artist who was doing her makeup: "Sister, have pity on me, give me a stutter, I haven't eaten for three days!"

A group of adults in the room burst into laughter when they heard the sound, the door of the dressing room was pushed open, and a woman in her 40s and [-]s with a very mature charm walked in and asked with a smile: "Hey, who is this begging here?" What? When did a little beggar come to our crew?"

When everyone saw the visitor, they immediately greeted her with smiles, and some young actors immediately stood up in respect: "Hello, Teacher Wu."

Seeing the visitor, Cheng Xuan also jumped off the chair, and said to her with a smile, "Aunt Wu, I'm going to be a beggar today!"

The woman known as Teacher Wu bent down with a smile, and couldn't help raising her hand to pinch Chengxuan's face: "Don't say it, it's really a show-stopping demeanor. A young actor from the beggar gang, I definitely recommend you to go there!"

The lady's surname is Wu, and her name is Wu Min. She is a national first-class actor, a famous drama actor of the National Repertory Theater, and the first wife of Director Zheng, the chief director of the play.

Don't look at her age, although she is not too old, but she is an absolute veteran in the domestic entertainment circle. In the early years, she won countless trophies at home and abroad with a few movies and TV shows, and now she has been active in China In the drama troupe.It can be regarded as one of the pillars of the National Repertory Theatre, and the dramas he starred in are almost sold out and tickets are hard to find.

Despite the fact that drama actors do not earn much, and their fame among ordinary people is not as shining as those meteor-like male and female stars and singers, they have an indisputable lofty status in the circle.

In the documentary director Zheng is going to shoot this time, at least [-]% of the actors are recommended by various repertory troupes, so everyone recognizes this Ms. Wu Min, and naturally they are very polite when they see her.

Wu Min will also appear in the play this time. She plays the role of the Empress Dowager who plays with Cheng Xuan. The wife appeared in the room.

Wu Min pinched Chengxuan's cheeks after finishing her makeup: "What are you looking at? Do you think that auntie has become an old lady?"

Cheng Xuan shook his head vigorously: "I think Sister Wang is too powerful, she can draw any kind of makeup!"

Cheng Xuan was not flattering, but sincerely felt that, whether it was his beggar makeup, Wu Min's empress dowager makeup, or a certain minister's makeup, under the ingenious hands of this king's makeup artist, they all hit the nail on the head. All of a sudden, the personality of the character is highlighted.

Chengxuan, who is not very famous now, has already started to think about it - in the future, he will only be exposed to more and more works, even if he really has acting skills, if his face is familiar to the public and can be seen every day , It will inevitably make audiences who only like to watch dramas feel annoying and out of play.If I can have such a powerful makeup artist, and cooperate with my own skills to help adjust the facial features, I can perfectly solve this problem.

It's a pity that if you want to use magic, it is doomed to be impossible for outside makeup artists to know, but I can't confuse a certain makeup artist for a long time to let him be his full-time makeup assistant. After all, hiring someone has to modify his memory ?This is too inhumane.

At the same time, Yu Li, who was wandering around in the crew and asking for information, was thinking about similar things in his mind.As Chengxuan got more jobs, they naturally needed more manpower.Now only relying on myself and Chengxuan can handle these things, but in the future, especially if Chengxuan really becomes famous overnight, then a professional team is bound to be needed to take care of these daily affairs .

It is not easy to solve this matter with puppets alone, because other than life assistants and bodyguards, they can be performed purely with puppets.Other jobs that require external contact to deal with various emergencies require people with sufficient IQ and EQ to handle them.Those delicate tasks, even if they use advanced puppets that require more spiritual power to drive, they will not be so handy.

Especially as Cheng Xuan grows older, the photography team, makeup team, styling team, etc., these professional quality personnel are absolutely indispensable.

The more he saw and understood in this circle, the more clear Yu Li would be about these details.But the problem is that both he and Cheng Xuan are not ordinary human beings. If ordinary people are found to form a team, there must be many secrets that cannot be well hidden.

The long-tailed rabbit squatting on the light stand in the already set up shooting site, shook its tail twice sadly, and the big fur ball slapped on the pillar beside him, Yu Li felt a little melancholy and irritated ——The spiritual power in this world is too thin, otherwise it would be okay to catch some ghosts and come back as a younger brother?Those little monsters I met in the early years couldn't even transform into a human form!The IQ is so low that it makes people cry, and their appearance is not even as good as my own long-tailed rabbit!And now, Yu Li doesn't even know if those ghosts are still alive?

Is it possible that I really want to catch a few people and brainwash them to control them?But in this case, Cheng Xuan would definitely feel uncomfortable.

"Hmph, it's really troublesome." Yu Li was feeling irritable, and the strength on his tail subconsciously increased a little, and then he heard a "bang"...

"What happened?"

"Where's the sound?"

"It seems to have come from above?"

"Huh?! Look at that pillar!"

"Wow! What's going on? Why is there such a big hole in that place!"

The actors in the dressing room had already put on their makeup and changed their costumes, and they were about to open the door to find the director.

Hearing the chaotic voices outside, everyone was puzzled: "What's the matter? What happened?"

Cheng Xuan subconsciously raised his hand to catch Yu Li who jumped into his arms, pinched the tip of his soft fur ball tail and asked him quietly in his heart: "What's wrong? What happened over there?"

Trying to flatten the rabbit's face, Yu Li's voice was calm and without any fluctuation: "It's nothing, there is a place where the wood is not strong."

"Oh." Cheng Xuan thought that some piece of wood in the hall was not strong and was broken when someone messed with the equipment, so he didn't care.

However, Yu Li was secretly making circles in his heart—although he was asked to make his body stronger before, it was a bit too strong, right?Even if he replaced his original body, although it was still very strong, he wouldn't just wag his tail casually and knock a big hole out of the wood, right? !

What made Yu Li feel helpless and vomited blood, he couldn't complain directly to Cheng Xuan about this matter, otherwise - it would be too embarrassing! !

The first thing Cheng Xuan wants to shoot today is the scene where the little prince enters the palace. He needs to express emotions such as anxiety, ignorance, timidity, surprise, etc. with his eyes and movements.

When the filming started, Cheng Xuan was carried into the palace by a eunuch dressed as a man of many palaces, walked through the corridors, and walked all the way into the palace where the empress dowager was.

The camera was filming along the track, the facial expression of Cheng Xuan, who was held in the arms of the eunuch, looked around nervously and apprehensively with his eyes wide open.After shooting a set of shots, Director Zheng checked it twice before he waved his hand and said with a hint of excitement in his voice, "Yes!"

Surprised expressions appeared on the faces of the surrounding staff and the actors waiting aside, and they looked at each other in surprise.Don't think that this kind of documentary does not require acting skills.In particular, the person who shot this film was Director Zheng, who has always been known for his rigor.This kid was actually able to pass it once, and he really is quite spiritual.

The next scene was also relatively smooth. Cheng Xuan did not make mistakes, but the frequency of his mistakes was very low, and those mistakes were often such as not adjusting his clothes properly, accidentally tripping while walking, etc., not Cheng Xuan himself. caused by the error.

Especially when Chengxuan needed to perform with the lines, the children’s voices were crisp and clean, and the enunciation was clear. After the on-site sound recording was checked by the director, he waved his hand and said: "That's right, there is no need for post-recording."

With such a high evaluation and a smooth shooting process, Cheng Xuan has successfully won unanimous praise from the crew.He worked in the crew for a total of one week of filming. During this period, apart from the variety show he starred in on Hongbo, he also gained a lot of faith.

It's just that now because of Yu Li's plan for a rainy day, Cheng Xuan can't judge how many of these soaring faith values ​​​​are contributed by netizens who watched his variety shows, and how many are contributed by on-site staff and colleagues. for him.
