Huayu: When the director changed his major

Chapter 216 Who is not an actor

Today is Reba’s last scene.

It is also Gao Wen’s most classic scene in “Diamond Lover”.

The reason why Cheng Xi was arranged to shoot last.

First, this scene requires very high acting skills.

The second is that I want Reba to be able to play the role of a top star.

This interpretation is more touching.

I have to say, the filming took almost two months.

Reba’s “star quality” is becoming stronger and stronger.

This thing is difficult to describe, but it depends on whether an artist has star quality.

Everyone will know it at a glance.

No matter how gorgeous and fashionable the clothes some artists wear, they will look like a buyer's show.

It's hard to get rid of the rusticity.

Another point about star quality is that it should be grand.

This is also why Fan Binbin can walk on the red carpet, but it is difficult for others to replicate.

The most prominent representative of grandeur is Gong Li.

No matter what the style is, that aura cannot be concealed.

Just for the sake of enhancing Reba's star quality, Cheng Xi felt it was worthwhile to personally direct this TV series.

Of course, Tiantian is also a beneficiary.

Cheng Xi asked himself if he had any particular preference for Reba.

As her rival scenes with Reba increased, Cheng Xi also gave her slow and patient analysis.

She also realized that her previous performance style was indeed too rigid.

Not smart at all.

Whenever she looks back at the movies and TV series she starred in before, she will ask herself, why didn’t the director remind me that the performance was so bad before?

"Reba, after this scene you'll be done, so just let go and act, it's okay."

"Stage Manager, clear the set. All non-essential personnel must go outside."

Seeing that Reba was almost ready, Cheng Xi began to ask the stage manager to clear the stage.

Wait until the crew is ready.

Reba started this solo performance.

The plot is that Gao Wen is no longer a star because of the public opinion storm.

And the person she has been relying on recently, Lei Yiming, has not come to see her for three days.

So she was alone in the villa, a little broken, missing Lei Yiming madly and started talking to herself.

After performing it several times, Reba still couldn't get it right.

Cheng Xi thought about the problem and wondered where it came from.

When they came to give instructions on rehearsing, Reba suddenly said to Cheng Xi:
"Director, you also wrote this part of 'My Love from the Star'. Why don't you show me how to do it?"

Reba is still very professional on the crew and always calls the director when there are people around.

And after the last time the two of them acted together in the room, I knew that Cheng Xi had some acting talent.

It's just that I haven't received professional training.

When Cheng Xi heard his little cutie say this, he also said:
"what!?"

Only then did he remember the time when he was talking to himself in his room like crazy.

Aren’t they exactly the same as the two scenes of Cheon Song Yi in “My Love from the Star”?

One part is about Cheon Song Yi being caught in a public opinion storm, and the other part is about missing Lu Junmin.

This time, two famous scenes from "My Love from the Star" are combined into one.

And think about it, the performance style of Gao Wen played by Reba in the original work does imitate that of Jun Ji-hyun.

But now "Diamond Lover" has come out early, and Reba has no one to refer to.

No wonder the performance lacked a lot of flavor.

The difficulty of creating something original and borrowing something from others is different.

Cheng Xi also had to admit that Jun Ji-hyun's performance was very classic.

I still remember the famous scene where he sang while holding a hair dryer.

Cheng Xi still remembers that he wanted to prevent another "My Love from the Star" from appearing in South Korea.

Avoid being unable to explain when the time comes.

Cheng Xi also specially published the novel "My Love from the Star" in South Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and other places.

It doesn’t matter whether you make money or not, the main thing is to be prepared.

If you, a Korean screenwriter, come up with this idea again, it will definitely be plagiarism from me.

Thinking that he was the original creator, Cheng Xi didn't hesitate.

Replicating the famous scenes in my mind, I taught Reba frame by frame based on my understanding.

When Cheng Xi pouted and said, "Wenwen, kiss me."

There was also a scene where he put one foot on the piano seat, looked back at the camera with a wine glass in his hand and said, "I'll still be a good man after 18 years." The whole crew laughed like crazy.

I didn't expect the director to have such good acting skills.

That charming look doesn't look like she's acting!

Especially Reba, she almost laughed so hard that her stomach hurt and she couldn’t stand up.

"Director, you... you are amazing! I didn't know that a play can be performed like this! Hahaha~~"

"Silly girl, what are you laughing at? I'm a director who teaches acting seriously."

"Brother, you and I can, I really can't help it, my stomach hurts a little bit"

Seeing that Reba even called him brother, Cheng Xi had no choice but to face the camera of the behind-the-scenes footage.

He shrugged and spread his hands.

His handsome and cool appearance made the eyes of the photographer in charge of the publicity team's behind-the-scenes footage light up.

When Reba finally sat on the stool and recovered, Cheng Xi also said:
"Reba, you don't have to act exactly as I do. Just follow your own understanding and let go. I believe in you."

"Okay, director."

"Think about it for a while, feel it yourself in the villa, and then tell me when you're ready."

"Sorry, Director, I still feel like laughing."

So Cheng Xi pretended to hit Reba's head viciously:
"I'm on the set. Pay attention. I'm going to leave first. You can adjust yourself."

After hearing what her brother said, Reba couldn't help but think about the scene just now.

Instead, he began to think about it seriously and tried to act it out alone.

Cheng Xi saw Reba talking to herself like crazy on the monitor to warm herself up.

I couldn't help laughing either.

No wonder they laughed so hard, this performance was truly magical and entertaining.

Twenty minutes later, Reba, who was dancing in the room, felt as if she had grasped something.

He immediately gave Cheng Xi an "OK" gesture to indicate that it was okay.

So Cheng Xi ordered to start filming again.

"There was no one for three days, and no phone calls."

"Ah, you're not mad at me anymore, are you?"

"How could I be angry with you, Wenwen?"

"Well~~Don't be like this, don't be angry~"

"I'm not angry with you, Wenwen, come and kiss me~"

Then Reba continued to play the piano frantically, shaking her hair:

"Listen, this is the sound of the trembling soul."

"I will still be a good man in eighteen years."

"Hello friends in the back, sing along with me."

"Sway, swing, swing, jump."

Finally, he ended this wave of crazy talk with a high-pitched vibrato.

"Lei Yiming ahhhhhh~!~"

After more than a dozen times, Reba continued to deny herself and make adjustments on her own initiative.

Finally, he asked Cheng Xi to move all the monitors outside the room so that she could immerse herself in the performance wholeheartedly.

Reba: "Director, you're affecting my performance."

Cheng Xi: “.”

But Cheng Xi was happy about it.

Looking at Reba working hard on the monitor, he felt at this moment that she was completely possessed by Gao Wen.

It did not completely match the demonstration Cheng Xi gave her, but she substituted her own understanding.

Even better than the original.

At this moment, she touched the threshold of being an actor.

Although there is still a certain gap between it and Jun Ji-hyun's performance, "My Love from the Star" will be waiting for you to meet it.

Amidst the warnings of “Brother, don’t do anything rash.”

Cheng Xi sent Reba away, but he was still a little reluctant.

But Reba has also finished filming, and school is about to start.

She needs to go back and take care of some things.

The night before leaving, Reba was still very sad.

It was very late before she fell asleep in Cheng Xi's arms.

Cheng Xi looked at the beauty in his arms, her eyelashes trembling slightly, and she looked like a silly beauty sleeping.

After kissing her forehead.

I couldn't help but smell her body fragrance and gradually fell asleep.
