Star Chaser [Entertainment]

"Brother Qing, thank you for speaking for me." While waiting, Ai Changle and Wen Qing stayed in the same tent, and finally found the opportunity to thank them.

In fact, on the set, the actors wait most of the time. Unless a scene is NG too many times and needs to be repeated, otherwise, most of the actors are waiting for the lighting arrangement, the adjustment of the camera position, and the extra actors to be in place. The actor has risen several levels in the game because of this.

Wen Qing didn't go back to the caravan today, but just reclined half-ly on the single chair prepared by the crew.Hearing Ai Changle coming, he also sat up, pursing his lips:

"It's okay, it should be." He has been filming fight scenes today, his clothes are covered in patches of dust, his face is also dirty, and he looks extremely tired.But his smile is still calm, "It is the boss's responsibility to protect employees."

Ai Changle's words and deeds are a bit cautious, after all, this is the first time he has spoken to Wen Qing after signing the contract.Maybe they could be regarded as friends in the past, but in the future, we still have to take into account our status, and we can't be the same as the boss:

"Well, I will be Brother Qing's employee from now on. Thank you and Sister Xin for treating me so highly. I will work hard."

Wen Qing was amused by his step-by-step manner, "Why did you suddenly start talking in an official tone?"

Ai Changle was stunned for a moment—isn't this the normal way for bosses to get along with employees?

Wen Qing looked at him with great interest, and said deliberately serious: "Don't take me so seriously, the company doesn't prohibit office romance."

"No no no no!"

When Ai Changle heard this, he felt as if his shame pants had been ripped off, and waved his hand to prove his innocence, "I don't have any wrong thoughts about Brother Qing! No, no, no, even if I have wrong thoughts, I will Digesting alone won't bother you."

He has recently entered a stage of nervousness, especially after signing the contract, people who eat melons on the Internet have questioned his motivation for signing.In fact, the main reason for his good mood these past few days was that he had joined Wen Qing's company, but he was suddenly exposed by someone, and they spread it out with embellishments, which made him subconsciously want to stay away from Wen Qing.

Perhaps, people have the essence of wanting to hide.

"Well, brother Qing, it's almost time for me, I'll go over and have a look." After saying a few words, he got oily on the soles of his feet.

Wen Qing looked at his fleeing back and lost his mind for two seconds, as if watching the smoke in the distance gradually being dispersed by the sun, the mountains and waters were clear, and his heart was also clear.

"Actually, you can have unreasonable thoughts."

...................

Ai Changle took three days off. During this period, his substitute work was done by a temporary substitute.Of course, the professional ability of the new stand-in is much weaker than his.Once the director yells "Action", it's not bad to be able to finish the lines, not to mention bringing emotions into the performance, which will deepen the sense of involvement of the opponent's actors.

In such a comparison, many people also understand why Ai Changle made the director's eyes shine before.

The recording of "Playing as the Voice of the Heart" starts every Tuesday night at 18:00.Due to the high difficulty of the performance, the producer will contact the actors in advance to hand over the script and program flow.

Ai Changle's play is called "Skins", which is a script adapted from a short story.The director probably tried it before, and the performance time was between 12 and 15 minutes.Therefore, he has to set up the role within such a period of time, not only to convince himself, but also to convince others.Let the audience recognize his role at the first sight of him, and only then will they recognize his subsequent emotions.

The character he plays is called "Lan Qing", an actor who sings Beijing opera.He was born in poverty, but he became a famous actor because of "The Palace of Eternal Life".And his most praised scene, from the moment he took the stage, people will continue to throw money from the audience and the Internet, is "The Soul Returns to Mawei Po", the scene where Yang Yuhuan's fragrance disappears and her jade dies.

When Lan Qing met Murong Fu, Lan Qing was crying while singing the lyrics from the Palace of Longevity.

Murong Fu asked him: "Are you crying for Concubine Yang?"

Lan Qing shook her head: "I cry, not for the imperial concubine."

"Who is that for?"

"Yang Yuhuan."

Murong Fu smiled: "You are very interesting as an actor, do you know that Yang Yuhuan is Concubine Yang's real name?"

"Know."

"Then why do you..."

When Lan Qing met a stranger, although he was timid and his voice was soft, he spoke clearly every word:

"Because Xuanzong loved the imperial concubine, not Yuhuan."

Lan Qing is the protagonist of this scene. Even though he doesn't have many roles, his thinking is amazing enough.

Even if the imperial concubine is not Yang Yuhuan, but another person with peerless looks, there will be a grand occasion of "three thousand dotes on one body".All Xuanzong's vows to Yang Yuhuan are nothing more than "the emperor of Han pays attention to color and thinks about pouring out the country", and it is nothing more than "clouds want clothes and flowers want appearance".Even if it wasn't Yang Yuhuan, Zhang Yuhuan and Li Yuhuan were going to sit on the imperial concubine.No matter who the noble concubine is, the emperor favors only that concubine.When the concubine's skin and Zhan Luan are put together, they naturally become pawns to part with.She was born as a human being, but in the eyes of others, she was just a skin, so Lan Qing shed tears for her.

His remarks moved Murong Fu, and Murong Fu became his bosom friend.This is something to be happy about.

However, bosom friend is not bosom friend.

When Murong Fu fell in love with another opera singer, but still couldn't tell who they were, the last ray of light that Lan Qing had left in the world finally faded away.

In the end, he put on half of his face makeup, wore the exquisite red python costume he had seen for the first time, and sang the last song "Soul Returns to Mawei Po" in a pavilion outside the city.When Murong Fu hugged him remorsefully and begged him not to leave her, Lan Qing, who had taken poison, shed a tear and asked him the last sentence of his life:

"The red makeup is off, and I'm Lan Qing through and through... Do you love me, or just like Xuanzong, you only love the concubine..."

At the end of the shot, it is the back of the aged Murong Fu staring at the empty stage.After the curtain call, the troupe left one after another, and the lively stage suddenly became as quiet as a cemetery.He finally realized what is "spectator mind" and what is "player".

"Lan Qing, already left."

His shadow was bent and weak, moving slowly under the support of the crutches, like the tongue of a hanged ghost.

The script is good.From the point of view of the agent Zhu Quan, the script of the tragic line is easy to resonate with the audience, and it will attract fans if it is performed well.And according to the description of the script, Lan Qing, played by Ai Changle, will draw half of his face in makeup, which is bound to become a highlight.

From an actor's point of view, the script moved him, and it was a good story.

Xie Huaisheng, who plays Murong Fu, is a senior actor with a good reputation in recent years. He is 34 years old, which is about the same as Wen Qing.Although his achievements in acting are not as high as Wen Qing's, his recent works are not bad, and even in the extremely strict Douban, he can maintain a score of around 8.

"Ai Changle?" Xie Huaisheng looked up from the script and saw Ai Changle coming in, but didn't get up to greet him.

"Yes, Teacher Xie, I want to cooperate with you this time, please give me your advice." Ai Changle went to the rehearsal room to greet the partner first as instructed by his manager.

"I can't talk about teaching, let's learn from each other." Xie Huaisheng's tone was lukewarm, obviously he didn't have a good impression of Ai Changle before.The man was still huddled in the recliner, slowly flipping through a page of the script, "You are a newcomer signed by Wen Qing, so there must be something special about you, otherwise, they wouldn't throw resources at you, right? "

Ai Changle's heart sank—this person said "there must be something extraordinary", but the subtext was actually "what's so special about you? I didn't see it".

He understood that if he suddenly signed to such a big company, he would definitely be stared at by many pairs of eyes.After two days of training on the Internet, he is already better at dealing with this part of the question.

Since you don't know what's special about me, I'll let you know.

"What Teacher Xie said is true. I have already memorized the lines. If it is convenient for Teacher Xie, can we rehearse the play first?"

Xie Huaisheng has been in the industry for a long time, and he is used to seeing all kinds of young men and women with backgrounds come to the entertainment industry to play tickets, thinking of earning a fortune while they are young.And it is precisely because of staying for a long time that I hate it more and more.Regardless of whether Ai Changle's original family is the backer, or because he recently got a boss and has a backer, and an unknown person suddenly gets such good treatment, the presupposition in his heart began to dislike it.

"Of course." He turned the script back and forth, and finally chose the part where Lan Qing committed suicide, "Just this part. Since you memorized the lines, you should know that this part is the highlight of your character."

Subtext: If you can't even handle the highlights well, you should quit as an actor.

"Okay, let's start with him taking off the fan."

Taking off the fan was the moment that made Lan Qing reveal her unmakeup side, and also made Murong Fu, who had misunderstood her, wake up.

There were no props prepared in the rehearsal room, so Ai Changle chose to perform without real objects.The finger holding the folding fan is slightly raised, like a shy orchid finger-this is an obvious symbol of an actor.

He turned around slowly, and after looking at Xie Huai's voice in front of him, he finally took off the fan that covered the half of his left face without makeup.

Xie Huaisheng took a step back in shock as written in the script, and called affectionately: "Lan Qing! Where have you been these days? I have been looking for you so hard!"

His words were very engaging, and he didn't recite his lines dryly because of the rehearsal.Obviously, he wanted to give Ai Changle a bad start and let him see what a real actor looks like.

Naturally, Ai Changle would not be affected by him - just kidding, when the crew was acting with Wen Qing, he could concentrate on nothing else, and of course he could handle this Xie Huai's voice.

So he smiled coldly, and let out a slight, almost inaudible laugh, like a frozen lake split but not completely broken.

"Bitter? I'm afraid it's hard to miss Lan Yuan, right?"

Xie Huaisheng frowned - this Ai Changle's skills were much stronger than he imagined.

The dialogue proceeded in an orderly manner, and the plot slowly came to the moment when Lan Qing committed suicide, lying in Murong Fu's arms and shedding the last tear of her life.

"At that time, I will fall to the ground. Teacher Xie, please catch me when I fall. From the right side, this is my left side of the face."

After Ai Changle talked about his plan, Xie Huaisheng immediately asked, "Because this half of your face looks better?"

"No." When discussing the plot, Ai Changle is very serious, "Because some face will wear makeup at that time, and the left face is Lan Qing."

Xie Huaisheng thought for a while and said, "I think it's better to shoot the right side of the face. Not only can it reflect the beauty of the camera, but it can also reflect the dramatic sound of the character. Even to death, it is still in the drama."

Ai Changle sat on the ground, "I also thought about the method Mr. Xie said, but in the end I still think it's better to pat the left cheek."

"reason."

"Because the right face is Concubine Yang, and the left face is Lan Qing. And the last tear he shed is because he is Lan Qing, with Lan Qing's emotions and regrets, not because he is Concubine Yang. As for the beauty, I think real beauty can move people more.”

Xie Huaisheng thought about his words for a while, and actually felt that they made a lot of sense.It seems that those prejudices against Ai Changle before are really because of his villain's heart and the gentleman's belly.So he stretched out his hand to Ai Changle and said solemnly:

"I think we need to get to know each other again. I'm Xie Huaisheng, your partner for the next two days."

Ai Changle looked at the hand that stayed in mid-air, knowing that he was finally being looked up to by his professional ability, so he generously extended his hand:

"Ai Changle. Please give me more advice."
