Overwhelmed
Chapter 31
When we arrived at Bai's house, there had been a lot of changes from the previous two days.
A huge oval-shaped studio has been erected in the empty garden. When Xiaoxiao and I walked in, we found that several scenes that will be used in filming have been quickly set up, and the staff who come and go are working on the scene. Last confirmation.
Huo Shu, who was wearing a casual suit, was talking to the staff with his back to us. From the excited voice, it could be heard that this guy was in good spirits.
He has been busy with these things in the past few days. Anyway, this guy was the second in command of Huanyu, so he is naturally much more familiar with these things than me.
Xiao Xiao and I walked around the studio and found that many of these staff were foreigners. I couldn't help but wonder where Wan Qi got these people.
When I went back to the door again, I realized that Big Brother Bai had arrived.
When I saw him, I couldn't help laughing, "Brother Bai...how could you dress like this?!"
I really can't blame me for making a fuss, who would have thought that Big Brother Bai, who has always been as gentle as a gentleman, would one day wear a ragged T-shirt and jeans like a boy next door?
But even if he dresses so plainly, it's still hard to cover up Big Brother Bai's out-of-this-world temperament... Looking at Big Brother Bai, I sigh.
The little guy with rough nerves walked around Big Brother Bai's side for a few times at the first time, and then clicked his tongue, "Brother, this is the first time I've seen you like this, it feels amazing~!"
Brother Bai rubbed her hair helplessly, "It's not all because of you girl."
After finishing speaking, he raised his head and showed me a gentle smile, "Ming Yuan, how is today's class?" He knew that I had Di Yao's class today.
I exaggeratedly made a bitter face at him, and joked, "After practice, my acting index is indeed only the legendary 0.5. Even the teachers can't bear to look at it directly!"
The smile in Big Brother Bai's eyes became a bit stronger, and he said to me soothingly, "It's okay, we have a lot of time these days."
"Then I'll leave it to Brother Bai." Actually, I'm still very curious about how he plans to teach me acting.
Soon, Huo Shu came over and urged me to change into the clothes I wore when I took the makeup photo that day.
I just noticed his grass-green hair.
Huo Shu noticed my gaze and shook his hair triumphantly, "How about it, isn't this color extraordinarily handsome!"
I suppressed a smile and nodded, trying to look sincere, "The green is so dazzling!"
After Huo Shu left contentedly, I laughed out loud, and I couldn't help but hold back the little girl next to me to complain, "Don't that guy know that he really looks like a cuckold at first glance? Haha..."
"Hmm... If you look at it this way, it does look a bit like it." A male voice with a smile came from beside him.
I was startled, and turned my head to realize that the person I was holding was Brother Bai, and immediately let go of his sleeve with an embarrassing face.
The joke time was over, and I was sitting opposite Big Brother Bai, listening to his teachings, and Xiao Xiao sat aside to add.
"Ming Yuan, because of the huge content of the original "Sinking and Floating", only the most important parts were kept in the revised script, and Zhan Ling's part is only four short scenes."
Holding a few sheets of paper full of Zhan Ling's lines in his hand, Big Brother Bai said to me, "Because our goal is not to train you into a real actor, but to let you successfully perform these scenes, so I He and Xiaoxiao thought of a way, that is, I will play Zhou Xiao and guide you to become Zhan Ling in the play."
Although I had guessed this way a long time ago, I was still a little surprised when I first heard Big Brother Bai say that.
"I think you should already understand the most important part of Zhanling's character," said Big Brother Bai.
I nodded.
"Then let's try the first act now." Standing up, Brother Bai gestured to Huo Shu.
Huo Shu immediately asked all the staff to take their positions, and Brother Bai pulled me over there.
Oh, it's coming up so soon...
I hasten to recall the first scene.
Zhan Ling doesn't have many lines, and I have already memorized them by heart these few days.
Because the time span of this drama is very large, Zhan Ling in childhood was played by another child actor, and I played the role of teenagers and adults.
Because Zhou Xiao and Zhan Ling were born in an orphanage, they grew up struggling all the way since they were young.The conditions in the orphanage are very bad. They have been together since they were very young and they grew up dependent on each other.Zhou Xiao has a flamboyant and forceful personality and has been extremely ambitious since he was a child, while Zhan Ling is open-minded by nature and takes things with ease.Although childhood was full of misfortunes, the two children hadn't really seen the dark side of the world when they were teenagers.
Because he often didn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes, Zhou Xiao, who had a flexible mind, was used to stealing chickens and dogs since he was a child, and being chased and beaten was a common occurrence.As his good buddy, Zhan Ling naturally always shares his difficulties.
The first scene I want to act in is the childhood Zhou Xiao and Zhan Ling being chased down the street by a group of strong men. When the camera turns, it shows the two hurried and panic-stricken teenagers ten years later.
It has nothing to do with me in my childhood, what I want to play is the scene after the camera cuts - together with Zhou Xiao, using all the strength to run out of a group of ferocious big men's "chasing and killing".
After reminiscing, Brother Bai and I were already standing at the end of the alley we built.
"Are you ready?" Brother Bai asked me suddenly.
I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel that his tone seems a little different.
I nodded, if I just ran, there should be no problem.
The director not far away received instructions and gave an order.
There was a burst of shouting from behind, and I couldn't help but want to look back, but suddenly I heard Brother Bai's low growl, "Run!"
Immediately after my arms tightened, I couldn't help running quickly along the intricate alleys with Big Brother Bai.
The alley was dark, damp, narrow and cramped, with the bright blue sky above the head, the footsteps behind me never stopped, occasionally the voice of Big Brother Bai anxiously urging me to run could be heard next to my ears, and my breathing gradually became rapid.
"Crack-!"
At the director's order, Brother Bai and I finally stopped.
I pressed my chest, which was jumping so hard, and felt my legs were a little weak, and my forehead was also a little wet from running.
Brother Bai let go of my hand, took out a handkerchief from his body, wiped it gently on my forehead and nose, and then smiled helplessly, "Ming Yuan, you should exercise more."
I took a few deep breaths, and only then did my aching chest feel better. Hearing what he said, I immediately felt my face get hotter.
It seems... I haven't really exercised recently.
Brother Bai chuckled lightly, didn't mention this again, turned around and dragged me to the director's side. Xiao Xiao, Huo Shu and Wan Qi all gathered there and watched the monitor with different expressions. Huo Shu's The expression was particularly shocked, which made me a little curious.
As soon as Brother Bai and I came, everyone immediately gave up the monitor.The staff added two chairs for us, and Wan Qi handed me and Brother Bai warm tea.
I sat in front of the monitor, watched the scene just now, and listened to everyone's opinions with an open mind.
"Mingyuan, did you find anything?" Brother Bai asked me after taking a sip of tea.
I stared at myself on the screen, and slowly frowned, "...it seems that something is awkward." Obviously, I was simply running away.
Brother Bai nodded, "Because you don't look like an orphan at all, or rather, you don't look like an ordinary person at all."
I looked at him blankly, and then found that several people around me also nodded in agreement.
The director replayed that scene, pointed to Big Brother Bai on the screen, and said, "Look at him carefully to see what's different."
I had no choice but to suppress the doubts in my heart and read it again carefully. This time, my gaze fell on Big Brother Bai.
Seeing this, I couldn't help frowning, and my heart became more and more shocked, because the person next to me——he on the screen was completely different from the usual one!
Even when he was running at a high speed, the corner of the man's lips on the screen still had a wanton and dazzling smile, his brows were sharply slanted, but his eyes were extremely bright, and in the blink of an eye, the unique arrogance and wildness of young people rushed towards his face.
He didn't care about the extreme in his movements, and the advantages of long hands and long feet were brought into full play. When encountering obstacles, he would jump up without hesitation, and when he rushed to the corner, he would use his hands as a fulcrum to turn quickly and smoothly.
His every move is extremely natural, as if he has been doing this for many years, his movements are brutal and extremely explosive, but they are not in the word of elegance at all, like a free wild horse, without the slightest restraint.
... This is another person at all, not the Big Brother Bai I know at all!In him, I can't find the slightest trace of Bai Nianqing.
That was Zhou Xiao when he was a teenager.
Looking at Big Brother Bai in shock, I finally understood why Xiaoxiao let this person teach me, and why that guy Huo Shu still looks frightened until now.
Such a big brother Bai really completely overturned my perception of him!
Brother Bai didn't care about my expression. After I watched the scene several times, he stopped me, "Do you know where your problem is now?"
I nodded hesitantly, then shook my head again, a little confused.
I know that my appearance on the screen is definitely not Zhan Ling, but I am completely at a loss as to what the specific problem is, and at the same time, I am somewhat inexplicably curious about Big Brother Bai who suddenly looks like a different person.
Fortunately, Big Brother Bai didn't make a fool of himself, and quickly explained to me, "Ming Yuan, you should have watched the movies you acted in, right?"
Seeing me nodding, Brother Bai said again, "I think you should have noticed that your expression under the camera is very stiff, but in fact this is only one of them. Your most critical problem is that your temperament is completely inconsistent with the characters in the play. And you seem completely unaware of that."
He played back the scene just now, pointed at me on the screen and said, "Human beings will have various personalities and temperaments due to reasons such as origin, growth environment, education received, people and things they come into contact with."
"Mingyuan, your biggest problem is that your innate temperament is too natural and strong, so that no matter what role you play, it is difficult to erase your sense of existence. Just like now, even if you know nothing about the past I know, but the feeling in my bones has not changed. And actors, in fact, are the kind of people who least need to have their own self."
I looked at him, thought about his words for a while, and nodded slowly.
I think I probably understand what he means.It is the Lu family who shaped me today, gave me everything that made me up, and at the same time carved an indelible mark on me.
Just like the big brother, even a stranger will notice his innate grace and majesty at the first sight of him.
And in me, maybe I also have traits that I haven't noticed.
It's just that Big Brother Bai, who also grew up in a wealthy family and looks like Mr. Pianpian, can portray Zhou Xiao so vividly?
"Brother Bai, how did you do it?" Looking at him, I was a little puzzled.
Before this, there have never been rumors that the current head of the Bai family has excellent acting skills. If I hadn't seen this scene today, I would never have believed that this always gentle person would have such a shocking side.
Brother Bai suddenly lowered his eyes, and I realized that his eyelashes are very long, covering all his emotions like a black feather fan, "It's not important," he said softly, "Mingyuan, since you have understood, the next thing is to It will be much easier."
Hearing what he said, I quickly lifted my spirits.
"Actually, you and Zhan Ling are very similar in some respects." His fingertips touched the corners of my eyes, "so don't force yourself."
"What you need now is the sense of urgency that Zhan Ling felt when she was being chased. Obviously, you don't have it here." He pointed to the screen and stood up, with a hint of a smile in his voice, "Seldom There are people who can maintain their image while their lives are at stake."
Hearing what he said, I suddenly had a bad premonition.
At the same moment, there were several howls of "ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" from behind.
I suddenly turned my head and looked over, only to see a few half-human tall hounds held by a tall man with force at the entrance of the studio, looking at me with green eyes.
= Mouth =...
It must be the wrong way for me to look back! !Please stop making trouble, Brother Bai, QAQ! !
A huge oval-shaped studio has been erected in the empty garden. When Xiaoxiao and I walked in, we found that several scenes that will be used in filming have been quickly set up, and the staff who come and go are working on the scene. Last confirmation.

The smile in Big Brother Bai's eyes became a bit stronger, and he said to me soothingly, "It's okay, we have a lot of time these days."
