Blooming on the ground

=====================

Fang Mufeng doesn't have many roles as a supporting role, and most of the roles are with Wang Ni.

Wang Ni is friendly and kind, straightforward and straightforward, without any airs of seniors, and treats everyone with a smile. It is not the kind of formulaic politeness, but it makes people feel close and down-to-earth from the heart.

As soon as she met, she gave Fang Mufeng a warm hug, and looked at him carefully from top to bottom.

"Huan Chao mentioned you to me, I remember you made Wen Ye's movie before, right?" Wang Ni smiled, her brows and eyes stretched out, and fine lines appeared around her eyes. These traces of aging actually added to the charm of this face , does not make people feel vicissitudes.

Although Wang Ni and Peng Wen also announced their divorce a few years ago due to disagreements in personalities, and then went their separate ways, but the two have a son together and maintain a cooperative relationship in the film. They are still relatively friendly and get along with each other from time to time. information.

Fang Mufeng responded obediently: "Director Peng and Teacher Yan think highly of it."

"I also want you to have the ability to make them look up to you." Wang Ni smiled and looked at Fang Mufeng and couldn't help sighing, "When I look at you, I think of my little friend, but he refuses to cooperate with me or Wen Ye. , don’t like getting involved with us.”

Fang Mufeng also smiled and chatted with her a few more words.

The child Wang Ni is talking about is her and Director Peng's only son, Peng Zeyao, who is also Xuannian's queen male lead.When he first debuted, he was said to be a second-generation waste star who relied on his parents. His acting skills were so poor that he could win the Golden Broom Award for Worst Actor. At one time, he aroused countless criticisms on the Internet. After experiencing rumors of depression, suicide, and illness and weight gain After three years of silence, Xuan Nian's debut novel reappeared, as if he had completely transformed himself, and his acting skills seemed to have opened up the two veins of Ren and Du.

In order to maintain the status in the film, both Wang Ni and Fang Mufeng called each other mother and Ozawa both on and off the set, and even the address book and WeChat notes are also role titles.

This was proposed by Wang Ni, perhaps for the purpose of cultivating tacit understanding and relationship as soon as possible. After the filming, Wang Ni also invited him to drink tea and chat with him from time to time.

Wang Ni has a different view on acting, and he did not hesitate to share his acting experience and insights with Fang Mufeng.

She has seen many actors of the new generation, and Fang Mufeng is one of the few sober, mature, calm and thoughtful ones. Judging from the actual performance, he is also quite good.She felt that many of her views on acting were very compatible with Fang Mufeng's, so she was also interested in communicating with him more.

Rather than saying that this is the experience and teaching of the predecessors, it is more like an equal experience exchange between two generations.

"I've watched your play "Burning Day". Characters with flaws or even negative characters are relatively easy to stand out, because human nature has a dark side, and such characters are closer to each of us," Wang Ni sipped his tea, and recalled Said, "But Wu Guan is a role full of idealism, and the actor needs to believe in this role from the bottom of his heart. Only when the actor believes in it can the audience enter the play. You have done a good job in this regard."

Fang Mufeng lowered his head and smiled, then shook his head and said, "I still have a lot of regrets in this role. In fact, I don't really like watching the movies and TV shows I acted in, because I can always pick out a lot of shortcomings. I don't dare to talk about the role I have played. It’s not bad, and I don’t dare to be frivolous and casual about the characters.”

This is his sincere words, he can't easily face any character and story.Even though most of the idol dramas I acted in the past were illogical and shoddy, I tried my best to perform well within the prescribed framework.

Wang Ni looked at him with his chin propped on one hand, with obvious appreciation in his eyes: "Not only for being an actor, but for any kind of love."

Fang Mufeng looked puzzled and looked at her.

"Don't just be obsessed with the performance itself," Wang Ni said jokingly, "Mu Feng, after filming this movie, let's have a relationship. After one love, you will be heartbroken, and then go to the next one." Love. Don’t think it’s a waste of time, the essence of life is consumption and futility, and performances rely on these seemingly meaningless things to become more and more moving.”

Hearing this, the person who immediately flashed in my mind was not the old love Yan Jingshan but Yan Huanchao, and even Fang Mufeng himself was taken aback.

After filming this week, Fang Mufeng learned from Wang Ni what a real actor is, dedicated, enthusiastic, and without any trace of acting skills.

Wang Ni maintained amazing concentration on the set, and never missed the opportunity to discuss the handling of each scene with the director, and put forward her own creative views. Some scenes were even more distinctive after she suggested revisions.

An actor of her age and status has already achieved fame, but she still maintains a strong creative force and enthusiasm for creation. Fang Mufeng can deeply appreciate her excellence and love for acting.

Gao Linyuan, who has always been serious, is kind and kind, and shows great respect and patience to Wang Ni.

It is said that this script was tailor-made for Wang Ni, and Wang Ni found another heroine after refusing due to personal arrangements.Unexpectedly, negative news about the appointed heroine was withdrawn, and Wang Ni came to the rescue for the sake of friendship.

Guan Xueru, who plays the mother-in-law, is almost 70 years old, and she came out to act in this film because of Wang Ni.When Wang Ni first debuted, she played a pair of mother and daughter with Guan Xueru, and they have maintained a friendly relationship between junior and senior since then.

When playing with Wang Ni, Fang Mufeng didn't feel that the other party was acting, and his every move was so life-like, like the middle-aged women I often see around me. I can feel that Wang Ni believes that she is Ozawa's mother. .

He began to understand that Yan Huanchao talked about Wang Ni's inspiration to him-instead of how to play a role with superb skills, he should think about how to behave like a living person in a specific scene, so that the audience can see it and not dance.

At the beginning, Fang Mufeng's performance was still tense, but under Wang Ni's lead, he became very relaxed. Sometimes he forgot the existence of the camera and he was a performer, and he was just focusing on Ozawa and his mother. in the interaction.

After the scene was over, Li Jiaping came forward with a smile and said: "Sister Ni and Mu Feng really look like a pair of mother and child. Sister Ni has a mother's love in it, and even I want to call her mother."

Wang Ni laughed out loud, and jokingly followed his words: "Lao Li, don't take advantage of me, are you two years older than me?"

This afternoon was an action scene. To be precise, it was a scene in which Ozawa was chased and bullied by his peers and beaten around a corner.

Gao Linyuan asked several supporting actors to play realistically. He stubbornly pursued the effect of watching movies, thinking that the audience can tell at a glance whether it is true or not.

But after filming for a long time, the results were not satisfactory. The supporting actors couldn't let go of their hands and feet and couldn't perform well. Someone even hit Fang Mufeng's face because he couldn't control the force for a while, and kept apologizing after the scene.

In order to be close to the role setting, the actors playing the bully are quite young. Two of them are younger than Fang Mufeng and have less experience in filming. Fang Mufeng can naturally feel their nervousness.

Going on like this is not an option, he felt that it was okay for him to be beaten, but the psychological pressure on the person who played him was even greater.If you hit too lightly, you will always be NG. If you hit too hard, you will be responsible for the damage.

He has a sincere attitude and took the initiative to do psychological construction with a few cooperating actors. He said, it doesn't matter, just call for real, the most important thing is to act realistically.

"Otherwise, I have to keep acting, and it will be difficult for the director to get angry."

Fang Mufeng whispered to them, with a pleasant smile on his face, and patted their shoulders after he finished speaking, and chatted about other things, trying to make the atmosphere relaxed.

This method of communication can be regarded as a lesson he stole from Yan Huanchao. When he worked with the other party before, he found that Yan Huanchao was very good at communicating with the opponent's actors, and he tried to relax the opponent as much as possible before shooting.In the past, Fang Mufeng always played himself, rarely communicating with others, like a lone ranger.

However, being an actor is a profession of communication. You have to communicate with the characters, the director, the props, and more importantly, the other actors who act together.

Gao Linyuan saw Fang Mufeng's performance in his eyes and didn't express his opinion.Of course, he would not really take risks with the actor's body. He turned around and ordered the props to wrap cotton cloth on the baseball bat as a buffer.

After rehearsing a few more times, Gao Linyuan sat in front of the monitor, picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Get ready to start."

In the dark and narrow alley, Ozawa, played by Fang Mufeng, uttered a strange scream and fled for his life. Just by hearing the sound, one could feel Ozawa's fear and helplessness at the moment.

Several high school students in school uniforms chased after him with baseball bats on their shoulders, blocking Ozawa at the end of the alley.

"Okay, mentally handicapped, you still know how to resist," the leader said with a gritted face, "How dare you bite me!"

"What nonsense, hit him!" Before the words finished, another high school student swung a baseball bat and greeted Ozawa directly.

While screaming, Ozawa curled up on the ground with his head in his arms, bearing the blows, punches and kicks that rained down on him.

The shaking and shaking shots reflect the extremely chaotic scene at the moment and the extreme panic in the characters' hearts.

Onlookers at the scene had tangled expressions on their faces, and some couldn't bear to look directly at it. This overly realistic scene made people feel distressed.

This time, the supporting actors really hit hard. When a punch landed on the face, they probably didn't stop the car. Fang Mufeng tasted blood in his mouth instantly.

He gritted his teeth and insisted on finishing the trick until Gao Linyuan called to stop.

Looking at it from the side, Luo Tian was particularly worried, thinking that this director is really not human.As soon as it was over, he rushed up to support Fang Mufeng who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, and found that his left face was immediately bruised and the corner of his mouth was broken.

After Fang Mufeng got up and stood firm, he gently pushed away the hand that was holding him, covered his face and said he was fine.He doesn't want to "sell miserably" on the set, and these are really nothing, they are the performances he should show as an actor. The only thing to worry about is whether this injury will affect the next filming.

Gao Linyuan also found out that he was injured, so he took the initiative to go forward to care, and ordered his assistant to apply ice packs to his face.

"The attitude is good, the scene is well done," Gao Linyuan nodded, "Go and take a rest."

Faced with the rare appreciation, Fang Mufeng's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, and he only said: "Thank you, Director Gao."

Compared with nearly two months ago, he didn't give much face. As the filming progressed, Gao Linyuan's recognition of Fang Mufeng was increasing, and his attitude became more and more relaxed.

He admitted that there was indeed a stereotype of Xiaoxianrou actors before. After all, he had been forced by investors and added dramas before, which hindered his creative freedom.The reason why I decided to use Fang Mufeng was because I couldn't find a more suitable actor, and he looked okay, and because my old partner Li Jiaping repeatedly persuaded me.

It's not that he didn't worry about Fang Mufeng supporting the role. Gao Linyuan is a typical perfectionist and has a strong desire to control his own movie. This movie was made after more than a year of preparation, and the details of the script alone took a long time to grind, so I don't even want any link to go wrong to drag down the overall quality of the movie.

Looking at it now, Peng Wenye, Xuan Nian, Yan Huanchao and others made a good recommendation.The energy shown by Fang Mufeng in the limited role is not inferior to other characters in the drama, and he can firmly catch their scenes.

And during the audition, he discovered that there was something very interesting about this kid, as if he was saying, "I'm standing here, and I want you to see me."

At the beginning of filming, they often watched the replays together in front of the monitor. Gao Linyuan discovered that Fang Mufeng was very strict with himself, and he could digest the director's requirements quickly and well, and he had great ideas for performances and stories. reference value.

He once asked Fang Mufeng how he understood this role, and why he designed Ozawa to have fixed hand movements.

Fang Mufeng talked about his observation and imitation in the special school, thinking that this fixed action can make Ozawa feel safe.For this role, he obviously did enough homework and has his own set of ideas and designs.

Gao Linyuan pondered for a moment, then asked: "Have you studied acting before?"

Fang Mufeng shook his head: "I'm not from a major. I ran a trick for a while before entering the company and was arranged to take a short-term acting class."

Gao Linyuan nodded, and said in his heart that Fang Mufeng, who was born in a wild way, can perform so well, with talent and hard work, he is a formidable young man.
