Entertainment: The joy of being a director is beyond your imagination

Chapter 13 13. Crying? Crying also counts as time~

"With your attitude, you deserve to not be popular!"

"After joining the crew, actors should focus on the performance. Can't you tell the difference between the primary and the secondary? You paid, so I should treat you like an ancestor and lick you every day, right?"

"Other directors might do that, but I'm too lazy to lick you."

Pei Ran was also really a little angry.

Jing Tian organized and put together this movie, and she also put in a lot of effort, but she got angry over a torn piece of clothing?

The worst that can happen is that both sides will be destroyed.

I'm a hacker after all, how can I tolerate your anger?

If all else fails, I'll just use my past life memories to film those hit dramas. Although being an actor will be harder than making money like this, it's still better than enduring this humiliation!
Pei Ran's scolding also attracted Zhang Yi, Yu Hewei and the staff. They were originally there to watch the fun, but they didn't expect that when they eavesdropped...

Not buddy.

Are you cursing so harshly?
Isn't this the sponsor? Didn't she bring money into the group?

Just as they were about to eavesdrop more carefully, the door of the dressing room was suddenly pushed open. Pei Ran looked at the people eavesdropping outside the door and asked, "Have you checked the scene? Is the equipment turned on? Are the extras in place?"

"Let's go check it out right now!"

"Okay, Director Pei, you take a break, I'll go check it out again!"

Everyone scattered, and Pei Ran returned to the locker room.

Jing Tian, ​​who was scolded by Pei Ran, was confused at the moment.

Before, Pei Ran always gave her the impression of being easy-going and gentle, occasionally joking and not serious, but now Pei Ran suddenly became like this... She just felt very wronged.

Damn Pei Ran, why are you so mean to me?!

I didn't say I wouldn't act...

Thinking of this, she felt even more aggrieved, and tears started to fall down her face.

Pei Ran found a seat and watched Jing Tian standing there crying silently with a very indifferent expression.

It was not until Jing Tian's makeup was ruined by crying that Pei Ran said, "Crying? Crying also counts as time."

Hearing this, Jing Tian glared at Pei Ran fiercely and wiped his face, "Get out! I'm going to change my clothes!"

"Stop crying? I thought you were going to cry for another ten minutes."

"Damn Pei Ran! Get out!"

"alright."

After Pei Ran went out, the makeup artist was called in and started tinkering with makeup, clothes, etc.

Being provoked by Pei Ran, Jing Tian's ruthlessness was forced out. "Damn Pei Ran, if you want to take a picture, I will accompany you to the end!"

……

In the following time, Jing Tian did not waste a minute and did whatever he was told. However, although he was obedient, he was not very obedient when filming the long dialogue scenes with Pei Ran.

Pei Ran's expressiveness completely overwhelmed her.

This made Jing Tian nervous.

I said the wrong lines three or four times.

But Pei Ran spoke the entire line naturally and fluently, and his acting skills made Jing Tian think for a moment that Pei Ran was a blind man...

"Crack!"

Even the assistant director couldn't help but stand up excitedly and give Pei Ran a thumbs up, "Director Pei, you are really at a disadvantage as a director. There was no trace of acting in that dialogue just now. My suggestion is that you can focus on acting. Of course, this is just my humble opinion!"

Even Yu Hewei, who had been squatting in the director's room, couldn't help but lead the applause. He was still thinking in his heart, no wonder he had the guts to scold Jing Tian, ​​who had brought money into the crew, so harshly just now.

It turns out that he has the confidence...

However, apart from acting skills, I guess this new director has other things. Otherwise, no matter how good his acting skills are, he can't fight against capital like this.

Little did they know that Pei Ran and Jing Tian were bound together by this film at this moment.

The movie was a big hit at the box office, and Pei Ran paid off his debts, making money and becoming famous.

Jingtian can make back his investment and become famous.

But if the box office fails, both of them will be scolded to death...

But Jing Tian didn't allow Pei Ran to criticize her just because they were tied together. She hadn't thought about this from the beginning to the end...

When she was being scolded, what she was thinking was, Pei Ran, why are you scolding me!
When Pei Ran said "crying also counts as time", I was thinking, damn Pei Ran, I will definitely surprise you and make you regret scolding me with such ugly words! Who knew... not only did I not surprise you, but I also made mistakes one after another.

Just when Jing Tian thought Pei Ran would criticize her again.

Pei Ran was thinking:

This rich flower is really durable.

After so many NGs, I still have the courage to do it again.

Generally speaking, actors will feel a little upset after being NGed several times during filming, so they need time to adjust themselves. However, this did not happen to Jing Tian.

Pei Ran was very satisfied with this, so during the intermission he took the initiative to come over and explain the play to her, "Jing Tian, ​​come here, let's talk."

Jing Tian, ​​who was hiding under the awning reading a script, felt as if facing a great enemy when she heard this. Her face became much more serious. She hesitated for a long time and finally moved over reluctantly.

"what!"

"No, I won't do it in public."

Jing Tian:?
"Okay, you didn't understand the joke? So unsophisticated, come and sit down."

Pei Ran gave up his director's chair for her to sit on.

Jing Tian began to hesitate again...not understanding what Pei Ran meant.

"Sit down, I'll tell you about the play."

"Oh…"

After Jing Tian sat down, Pei Ran flipped out a small stool from the side and sat next to Jing Tian. Because the small stool was very low, Pei Ran's head was almost at the height of Jing Tian's chest.

Jing Tian bent down slightly and moved closer to Pei Ran so that she could see the script more easily.

A faint feminine scent lingered on Pei Ran's nose.

"How much perfume did you put on? It smells so strong."

"I didn't spray..." Jing Tian looked innocent.

"Oh, maybe the makeup has marinated you." Pei Ran shook his head, ignoring all these nonsense, and began to explain the play to Jing Tian, ​​"The female murderer you play is a very shrewd woman, otherwise she wouldn't have gone to the hero's house to test whether he is blind in the later plot."

"So you don't need to rush when you speak your lines. Slow and steady can better reflect the character of the murderess. But in the early stages, you can speak a little faster because the murderess is still testing the hero."

"When this female murderer and the male protagonist first meet, your performance needs to be more layered, understand?"

Jing Tian listened very carefully and nodded heavily.

"After the scene where we have a private conversation, Teacher Zhang Yi will join in. Then you can let him guide your emotions, including the speed of speaking the lines."

Jing Tian nodded, and her eyes unconsciously shifted from the script to Pei Ran's profile. Well... Pei Ran doesn't curse people, and he is still quite handsome when he is seriously talking about the play.

"Also, your biggest problem is that your expressions are not rich enough. No one can teach you this. You can only practice it yourself." Pei Ran didn't notice that Jing Tian was secretly looking at him. After thinking for a moment, he continued: "How about this, you practice now. Make whatever expression I ask you to make."

"Ah? Oh, okay." Jing Tian came back to his senses and agreed immediately.

"Put on a smiling face." Pei Ran ordered.

Jing Tian's mouth corners immediately raised.

"Not qualified. Smiling is not just about raising the corners of your mouth, your eyes and facial muscles must also keep up the rhythm, otherwise it will look very... awkward."

"Oh."

"Make an expression that sounds like you're so angry that you can't speak."

Pei Ran gave the order and Jing Tian did as he was told.

But Pei Ran was still not satisfied.

“Being angry doesn’t just mean frowning. You can try trembling your lips slightly, so that your performance on camera will be more vivid.”

It’s quite satisfying to train the beautiful and rich girl in the world.

The young and innocent rich girl was easily trained. She would do whatever Pei Ran said, and her ability to manage her facial expressions also improved rapidly.

"Come on, make a...very happy expression."

Hearing this, Jing Tian was stunned, "What?"

"It's the expression that appears when you feel very comfortable and satisfied. Well... let's put it this way. You can try rolling your eyes and opening your mouth wide and sticking out your tongue."
