"Click! Let's stop here today. Thank you all for your hard work." Zhou Yan looked at the camera screen for a long time and nodded with satisfaction.

I don't know when a light drizzle began to fall in the quiet town, and the hilltops in the distance shyly raised their hazy veils.

The location chosen by the crew for filming is remote, the cell phone signal is not good, and even streaming videos is laggy.

Usually, you don’t have to think too much about what to eat today. Except for a few people who have their own assistants to cook, everyone basically relies on boxed lunches.

Such boring days would last for several months, but for these actors who have won many awards, it has become a common life.

They had long ago learned to self-regulate, like today.

The main creative staff headed by Hang Yan sat in a row on a large rock not far from the set. There was a large awning over it, and the raindrops hitting it made a healing sound.

While listening to the rain, they watched the performance of Lu Rong, the youngest actor in the entire crew.

Today's scenes are all about Lu Rong. Zhou Yan is a director who likes to find the right state. If the actors are in good condition, he will continue to arrange them, with the duration ranging from one to three days.

"That's great. I can have another day off." Liang Yuan said with a smile, resting his hands on his head.

One look at the director's expression revealed that Zhou Yan was extremely satisfied with Lu Rong. Of course, there was nothing to fault with her acting skills, and I didn't know how she practiced them.

"Xiao Rong is really the best acting young man I have ever seen. I even wonder if I have been around you old people for too long. Has the world outside developed to this point?"

Ge Jiayi hugged his chest and sighed.

Ever since he won the Best Actor award several times, he has been staying in the film industry. He is not picky about roles, big or small, but he is annoyed by unhealthy interpersonal relationships on the set.

In his early years, he had no choice. Domestic entertainment is a realistic place. Whoever is more famous is right. He was so angry at some stupid teammates.

For example, in a youth pain movie shot a long time ago, the heroine had to shave her head due to the plot. Not only was she extremely reluctant to do so and delayed the progress, she also required the entire crew to shave her head with her.

Even a staff member of a bride-to-be was not spared. But when the news was finally exposed, the heat was suppressed and did not cause any waves.

Another time, a popular young actor, not only had poor acting skills, but also made unreasonable demands such as staying in a five-star hotel and driving GMA's RV.

Because the crew did not agree to go on strike if there was a disagreement, he made the entire crew wait for him.

An even more explosive incident happened when she was sent to the hospital because she claimed to be sick and could not come to work because filming was too tiring. The doctor said there was nothing wrong with her, but she, who was pretending to be sick, accused the doctor of being perfunctory and not being responsible.

Ignoring the patients waiting to see the doctor, he shouted loudly in the hospital, then posted information about the hospital and the doctor on social media, using his celebrity influence to cyberbully the innocent doctor.

Ge Jia couldn't finish telling all these arrogant behaviors in three days and three nights.

You know what’s the scariest thing?

That is, some of the people he knew are still very popular now, stepping on their corpses to accept flowers and applause from unsuspecting fans.

Whenever he saw the praises from different marketing accounts and the overwhelming support in the comment sections, he would feel a chill all over his body and at one point felt desperate about this circle.

It wasn't until he participated in the competition for Best Actor and acted with different talented actors and actresses that he felt much better.

Although there are some fake ones among them, Ge Jiayi has learned to ignore them.

It has been a long time since I last saw the current situation of young actors in the circle. When I first came into contact with such an outstanding young actor like Lu Rong, I was still a little dazed and happily thought that the era of traffic supremacy was over.

but.

But he was still glad that there was a role model like Lu Rong in the circle, who had both strength and fame.

Ge Jiayi was praying silently in his heart when someone suddenly patted his shoulder.

"Old Ge, what are you thinking about? I called you several times but you didn't respond." Hang Yan still stared at Lu Rong on the set.

"Just things in the industry." He shook his head and shifted his attention to the set.

Hangyan also knew about Ge Jiayi's experiences. Compared to them, Ge Jiayi's journey had been more difficult. If he had made a mistake in chess, he would not have reached this point today.

"Then do you know that Xiaorong has someone behind her?"

"I hope that investors will support this type of actors. The investors are happy, the audiences are happy, and everyone is happy."

"Stop talking, the main event is coming." Liang Yuan interrupted their conversation.

At this time, the scene where Lu Qingming was captured was being played on the set, and everyone became interested.

They were amazed by Lu Rong's delicate changes in expression.

"He must have done a lot of homework before filming." Ge Jiayi said firmly.

Hangyan nodded in agreement, his admiring look never disappearing.

Lu Qingming's dual personality is the biggest difficulty in playing this role well.

There are specific triggers between real dual personalities, and actors need to find the factors that trigger the dual personality transformation. They may be specific scenes, characters, emotions, etc.

For example, hearing a specific piece of music, seeing a familiar object, experiencing a strong emotional impact... may trigger a personality change.

The triggering factor of Lu Qingming is the terminator.

Even though the director and the script did not have explicit requirements, Lu Rong still presented the subtle reactions during the transition process to the camera.

This transition is very natural, not abrupt, and allows the audience to clearly feel the changes in the character.

How hard is it to become a completely different person?

Lu Rong not only shows it in the changes in his eyes, but he also has a careful grasp of his micro-expressions and habitual movements.

For example, the main personality likes to touch his hair, often looks at his toes when walking, the secondary personality likes to bite his lower lip when in a daze, and unconsciously fiddles with the corners of his clothes.

Different personalities have different sets of expression patterns for smiles, frowns, surprise and other expressions.

This is why all the movie stars in the crew, including Hang Yan, are so friendly to Lu Rong. On the one hand, they admire him, and on the other hand, they see that he has a bright future.

When the filming reached its climax, Liang Yuan sat up from the stone, his eyes burning:

"I've heard from you guys a long time ago that Lu Rong has a background in martial arts. I didn't believe him when I saw him and Wu Chengxue mixing moves. It turns out that his acting skills were so good that I was fooled."

For those who have learned martial arts routines, in order to perform a random fighting style, they need to break through the inherent patterns of the martial arts routines they have developed over a long period of time.

This is not easy at all. It is like asking a person who is used to writing with his right hand to suddenly change to writing with his left hand. It requires overcoming great difficulties.

Seeing Lu Rong quickly and accurately deal with the four people, Liang Yuan's interest in him has reached its peak: "I'm beginning to be curious about Lu Xiaorong's master."

Anyone who has studied martial arts knows that long-term training can develop standardized and standard movement habits.

Each move has a specific way of exerting force, movement trajectory and rhythm.

Just like if you push your shoulder twice, the black guys will be able to recognize it as Tieshankao.

But he had never seen Lu Rong's way before.

"Don't be curious, there are no fighting scenes between you two in the play." Hang Yan curled his lips. He was secretly happy when he thought about the capture scene between him and Lu Qingming later.

At this point, Liang Yuan's face fell.

On the set, Lu Rong, who was the center of discussion among several movie stars, returned to filming again after a short break.

There are three types of people who can enter the interrogation room:

1. Criminal Suspect

II. Witnesses

3. Technical/Translator Assisting Police Investigations

Lu Qingming was the only victim who was relatively sober and might have witnessed the suspect's crime, knew his whereabouts or had other important clues.

In order to verify the case and obtain more evidence, the police repeatedly confirmed that the person was in good condition and then took him to the interrogation room for questioning.

The interrogation room is a closed space with only one solid door. It is about ten square meters and contains an interrogation table and a few chairs. Apart from that, there are no other decorations or items.

The lighting in the interrogation room is dim, but the brightness allows the person being interrogated to clearly see the interrogator's expressions and movements, increasing psychological pressure while also making it easier for the interrogator to observe the person being interrogated's subtle reactions.

Even the angle of the lighting is carefully designed.

The chairs used by the interrogated persons had no backrest or armrests, which put them in a psychologically unstable state.

Lu Qingming sat at the interrogation table, being stared at by two policemen with piercing eyes. He didn't know where to put his hands and subconsciously wanted to scratch his head.

There was a square gray box on the table with a display screen, but the screen was facing away from Lu Qingming, so he couldn't see what was on it.

His face was still pale, his hair was disheveled, and he still looked a little dishevelled from the crime scene.

An experienced policeman sat opposite the teenager, staring at him closely with sharp eyes.

The voice was steady and serious: "Tell me, what exactly happened at the scene?"

Lu Qingming moved his lips, trying to recall something, but strangely found his mind was blank.

The police frowned slightly and slowed down his tone: "Don't be afraid, kid. We just want to know the truth of the matter. Why are you in that abandoned factory?"

Lu Qingming took a deep breath, his expression puzzled: "I... remember that after I was surrounded by Ah Hui and his men, I returned home, went to bed early, and when I woke up I saw you guys."

The policeman chased after him: "Did you see anyone else? Or hear any special noises?"

The young man shook his head. "No, when I woke up, there were only those two dead people, and... there were also those two people who were scared crazy and the injured bodyguard. I panicked and didn't know what to do."

The policeman was silent for a moment, then continued to ask: "Do you know the deceased?"

Lu Qingming shook his head again: "I don't know him. I have never seen him, but I know that he is the boss that Ah Hui mentioned."

The police looked into his eyes, trying to find a clue:

"Then why were you there? There was a conflict between you and Ah Hui, and your blood and fingerprints were extracted from the murder weapon at the scene. Please be sure to confess."

However, the boy did not show the panic as they had imagined. Instead, he looked stunned, as if he could not believe that he had suddenly turned from a victim to a suspect.

"Really, I don't remember anything. I usually take that route home, and I did the same today. I also called the police. I didn't expect to encounter something like this."

The policeman nodded slightly, thinking about the boy's words: "Okay, then did you move anything at the scene? Or did you see anything suspicious?"

Lu Qingming shook his head vigorously: "No, I didn't move anything. After I woke up and saw that scene, I was so scared that I sat in the corner and didn't dare to move."

There was a brief silence in the interrogation room.

The interrogation came to a temporary end. The two police officers looked embarrassed and found the staff and experts in the monitoring room.

The interrogation room is equipped with all-round, high-definition surveillance equipment that records the entire interrogation process in detail.

These images are transmitted to the monitoring center in real time and analyzed and reviewed by several police officers and experts.

The police officer held a stack of printed materials and looked at the expert standing at the head of the room.

Song An is a PhD in psychology specially invited by the public security department. He is also a guest of honor in many criminal police teams and has great prestige in the industry.

Dr. Song shook his head: "Based on my observation, this kid should not be a suspect."

"If he is too fluent in answering questions, he may have prepared the answers in advance and may be suspected of lying."

"On the contrary, this stumbling response, which requires a longer period of thinking, may be a recollection of what really happened."

"Lu Qingming identified the victim very straightforwardly. He did not move his eyes, twitch his mouth, blink frequently, fidget, or shake his hands or feet. Given Lu Qingming's age and energy, he probably does not have the mental capacity to do so."

Dr. Song frowned. "It's as if the brain received a strong stimulus and activated a protective mechanism to forget this memory. He was very relaxed, but also nervous as if he was entering the police station for the first time."

"Didn't you use a polygraph? Bring me Lu Qingming's physiological data."

It turns out that the box placed on the interrogation table is a polygraph, with numerous sensors connected to the side of its main unit.

With the development of criminal investigation technology, the functions of polygraphs have been greatly improved and extended. Physiological sensors alone are divided into three types: heart rate, breathing and skin.

There is nothing much to say about the first two, but the last one is very powerful. It measures the changes in skin resistance and obtains skin electrical response data.

In addition, there are motion sensors.

Pressure sensors are installed in the cushion of the chair where the test subject sits, and vibration sensors are on the polygraph table.

Dr. Song took the data and his brows relaxed. Sure enough, everything was normal and his judgment was correct.

The only normal people who can escape a lie detector test are those with extremely strong mental qualities, whose abilities to control emotions and self-suggestion are almost at the ultimate human level.

Apart from that, abnormal people are those suffering from mental illness and heart disease.

So they didn't think that Lu Qingming, who was not yet an adult, had such ability. After some questioning and testing, Lu Qingming successfully got rid of suspicion.

"Ka--" The moment Zhou Yan opened his mouth, everyone present, including the three movie stars who were sitting on the rocks watching the fun, gathered over.

Even Director Zhou himself didn't have time to watch the filming footage before rushing forward in a hurry.
