Rebirth of Chinese Entertainment, the Diary of a 95 Flower

Chapter 65: Working hard outside, I miss home more and more as the year draws to a close
"Yang Chaoyue!"

This time, Jiang Yang was speaking to the camera that was filming Huang Lei following the PD.

A close-up of Jiang Yang was given, and the focus officer fixed the focus on Jiang Yang's upper body.

The camera's gun-style microphone and the microphone on Jiang Yang's collar clearly picked up his voice:

"Yang is Mu Yiyang! Chao is super! She's from Yancheng, Jiangsu! She's only six months old and has no acting experience. This is her first time acting in front of the camera."

"First time performing?" Huang Lei's eyes lit up.

He didn't think there was anything special about Yang Chaoyue's 17-year-old age.

Having been in this circle for more than 20 years, I have seen too many actors who have superb acting skills before they reach adulthood. Most of these actors debuted as child stars.

Like Guan Xiaotong, Zhao Jinmai, and Zhang Zifeng, even though they have not yet taken the art exam, they already have rich acting experience and their professional abilities are definitely strong.

Yang Chaoyue is different from these child stars. It is not easy for him to achieve such a level in his first performance.

“You really have to guide people out of their roles.”

Huang Lei stretched out a finger, tapped Jiang Yang a few times, and said jokingly:
"The girl is so immersed in her role that she can't get out of it. It's all because of you directing her emotions. The energy fields between you two are off when you're performing, and the emotional siphoning effect is too obvious... Do you need my help? Just tell me."

"Teacher Huang, please have a bowl of noodles and wait a moment."

Huang Lei nodded: "It's okay, I'll wait for you."

After saying that, he didn't forget to create a comedic atmosphere for the variety show and pointed at the noodles Jiang Yang had placed on his table: "Let me say one more thing, your noodles are really overcooked. I'll show you a few tricks and teach you later."

At the same time, I was a little surprised. Jiang Yang knew how to guide the actors out of the state of immersion in the role?
This is not an easy task.

It is divided into physiological intervention, psychological skills, and environmental transformation.

If mistakes are made during the guidance process, it may cause the actors to have an emotional backlash.

There is systematic teaching in this area in film and television schools, but not many students have learned it.

This is usually an ability that only professional teachers possess.

What will Jiang Yang do?
Huang Lei turned his head and watched Jiang Yang pulling Yang Chaoyue into the alley behind the noodle stall.

He didn't have time to taste the noodles in the wooden bowl. He just let it get cold and gave it to Honglei later.

Huang Lei stood up and followed him to the alley behind the noodle stall, watching with interest.

In the director's car.

Yan Min looked at the multi-screen splitter in front of him.

At this moment, the screen is divided into 9 pictures.

They correspond to 6 MC guests and 3 flying guests.

The main screen shows the interaction between Huang Lei and Jiang Yang.

Hearing that Huang Lei wanted to test Jiang Yang's acting skills, Yan Min frowned slightly: "Why did Huang Lei add scenes for the extras? There's no such content in the program schedule. Huang Lei is just like Hong Lei, not following the routine."

He pulled out his intercom and said to the script supervisor at Cao Wei Street, "Please remind Huang Lei to pay attention to the program flow and finish his main storyline as soon as possible. The scenes with the noodle stall owner and the female beggar are over. Huang Lei can leave now."

Cao Wei's street reporter immediately ran over as Yan Min requested and reminded Huang Lei to follow the program procedures.

Huang Lei waved his hand and smiled at the camera, "It's still early. I will complete the main mission. Why rush? As a graduate tutor at the Beijing Film Academy's Performance Department, when I meet a promising student, I have to contribute my humble efforts to the recruitment of students for my school."

Speaking of it.

Huang Lei made a shushing gesture and his face turned serious:
"Let's be quiet. That female beggar is so immersed in her role that she can't get out of it. Many actors can't get out of their roles during a performance, which can lead to psychological problems. Jiang Yang is trying to guide her out of her role, and I have to watch from the side. If he guides her incorrectly, it might cause the actor to experience acute anxiety."

In the director's car.

Yan Min was a little stunned when he heard this.

Yang Chaoyue was immersed in the role of a female beggar and couldn't get out of it?

Yan Min has not directed traditional film and television works.

Before directing "Go Fighting", he led projects such as "Tonight's 80s Talk Show", "Voice of Asia", "Goddess's New Clothes", and "The Voice of China", all of which are variety show production projects.

I don’t have a deep understanding of the film and television industry, but my academic training is related to drama, film and television literature, so I also know a little about the acting schools of actors.

Yang Chaoyue’s previous role as a female beggar clearly used an experiential acting style, so much so that she was immersed in the role and found it difficult to break away from it.

This phenomenon often happens to the leading actors in film and television dramas.

The production crew usually films actors' performances when they find it difficult to break away from their roles, and plays them as behind-the-scenes footage of the TV series as a selling point to show the actors' professionalism.

The issue is.

Yang Chaoyue plays an extra in a variety show.

This phenomenon has never appeared in any variety show he has ever known.

Realizing that Huang Lei didn't seem to be joking, Yan Min realized the seriousness of the situation: "Magnify the interaction between Jiang Yang and Yang Chaoyue in the alley."

The focus puller adjusts the focal length parameter multiple.

In the multi-screen splitter, the interaction between Jiang Yang and Yang Chaoyue occupies the main screen.

Yang Chaoyue sat on the ground with his back against the red brick wall, hugging his knees.

His eyes were unfocused, and his nails, covered in mud, were clasped tightly around his palms.

His shoulders shrugged and he sobbed silently.

"Huang Lei wasn't kidding. Yang Chaoyue really hasn't gotten out of character yet. Jiang Yang is trying to guide her. Huang Lei really needs to watch this process, otherwise something unexpected might happen."

This is an emergency.

Isn’t this also a highlight of the show?

"Record this entire process! Embed it with a digital watermark and synchronize it to off-site encrypted storage."

As Yan Min gave the order, the director of photography in the broadcast van, in coordination with the technical director, recorded the interaction between Jiang Yang and Yang Chaoyue in the alley through the camera remote control panel while monitoring other shots.

Embed the digital watermark into the video and prepare the mobile hard disk hot backup package.

……

At the alley behind the noodle stall, Huang Lei watched Jiang Yang and Yang Chaoyue's movements with a serious expression.

His follow-up PD shot the camera over Huang Lei's shoulder and filmed Jiang Yang and Yang Chaoyue from Huang Lei's perspective using an over-the-shoulder lens.

In the eaves above the red brick wall, a hidden camera flashed a red dot, aiming at Jiang Yang and Yang Chaoyue.

now.

Jiang Yang didn't care about anything else.

He bent down and squatted in front of Yang Chaoyue, gently holding Yang Chaoyue's wrist. After feeling the coolness, he took out the hand warmer he bought at the stall at the entrance of the film and television city: "Feel this temperature."

The hand warmer gradually warmed up Yang Chaoyue's cold palms.

"Is it warmer?" Jiang Yang asked cautiously, slowing down his speech.

Yang Chaoyue nodded slightly without saying anything, his eyes still red and his legs tightly together.

"Try this again."

Jiang Yang took out a mint candy, tore open the package, and revealed the candy pill inside: "Open your mouth, ah."

Yang Chaoyue's lips opened.

Jiang Yang stuffed the mint into her mouth.

Refreshing sweetness that stimulates the mouth.

Jiang Yang took off the linen shirt he wore as the owner of a noodle stall, revealing the white sweater underneath, allowing his modern outfit to appear in Yang Chaoyue's sight.

He smiled gently, spoke slowly, and held Yang Chaoyue's dirty, muddy hand, whispering softly:

"Remember, this mint candy was grabbed from the front desk when we left Canxing for our interview. I still have a bunch in my car."

"I... remember." Yang Chaoyue opened his lips slightly and let out a breath.

Feeling the warmth in my hands, tasting the coolness on my tongue, looking at Jiang Yang's familiar smile and his usual attire.

Yang Chaoyue's originally out-of-focus eyes gradually regained focus.

effective!
Yang Chaoyue was previously immersed in the role of a female beggar during the Three Kingdoms period, so she had to do the opposite.

Constantly asking Yang Chaoyue to remember what she experienced in modern times can effectively help her break away from the role.

Immersed in the tragic role, Jiang Yang tried his best not to let Yang Chaoyue recall the sad memories of Yang Chaoyue dropping out of school to work in the factory, failing to take the college entrance examination, his parents' divorce, and his father working hard to support the family, so as to avoid causing the same emotional impact.

What is needed now is emotional hedging.

He tried his best to make Yang Chaoyue recall the happy moments: "Remember the first day I taught you flat and retroflex consonants, how you scolded me behind my back?"

"I remember... you taught me to pronounce the word 'born'. I couldn't pronounce it and always read it as 'beast'. I cursed you many times behind your back... It turns out you knew everything." Yang Chaoyue's dazed eyes gradually became clearer.

Jiang Yang spoke in a gentle tone: "Do you remember the first time you cooked your hometown food from Yancheng for me?
"I remember...I made you a stewed earthworm."

Yang Chaoyue recalled the scene when he was cooking the special dishes of his hometown for Jiang Yang in the rental house in Fuli Community.

I dropped out of school and worked hard in other places. I matured early and missed home more and more as the year came to an end.

That was the first time I had eaten authentic hometown food in my two years in Shanghai, and Jiang Yang was by my side.

She watched Jiang Yang enjoy the meal, but he still put the last piece of meat on the plate into her bowl and gave it to her.

Before my parents divorced, I would eat with them in my hometown. I was very greedy, and they would always leave the last portion of food on the plate for me.

Yang Chaoyue's face was covered with a smile, and his eyes were shining brightly: "Brother Yang, don't worry about me. I have gotten rid of my role and am no longer a female beggar."

Seeing Yang Chaoyue smile, Jiang Yang understood that Yang Chaoyue had successfully gotten out of the role.

Fortunately, Yang Chaoyue didn’t immerse herself in the role of a female beggar for long.

With his guidance, it was easy to get out.

What really finds it difficult to break away from the role are the experiential actors who immerse themselves in the role for a long time during the filming of film and television dramas.

The more famous one is Zhang Songwen, who starred in "Kuang Biao" in his previous life. He perfectly interpreted the villain Gao Qiqiang, so much so that the audience felt that Zhang Songwen was not acting, but was real. It is recommended to conduct a thorough investigation.

In fact, after filming was completed, Zhang Songwen still retained the character's physical memory and touched the back of his neck unconsciously.

Even when being interviewed, he would blurt out place names from the drama, such as Jiuchang Street.

In order to break away from the role, I would deliberately avoid passing by the seafood market in my daily life. It took me 8 months to successfully break away from it.

There is also Duan Yihong, who filmed "The Blizzard Is Coming". After the filming was completed, he continued to dream about the rainy night scene in the factory. In real life, he subconsciously maintained the hunched posture of the character and was allergic to the sound of metal collisions.

In order to get out of the role, he hiked 400 kilometers in XJ and received EMDR eye movement therapy, which took nearly a year to succeed.

Zhou Xun, who played Li Mi in "Li Mi's Conjecture", often talked to himself in Yunnan dialect after the filming was completed.

I force myself to go to the vegetable market every day, using the bustling atmosphere of the city to stimulate myself to break away from my role.

"Who are you now?" Jiang Yang suddenly asked.

"I support Yang Chao!"

Yang Chaoyue spoke in the Shanghai dialect he learned from Jiang Yang.

"What about me? Who am I?"

"You idiot!"

Yang Chaoyue imitated Jiang Yang's occasional Fog City accent and laughed out loud.
