In Wang Jinfa's film, everything went downhill after Xin Yuan and Yao Zhen were discovered, and things didn't go as smoothly as they thought in advance. Yao Zhen's mother's attitude was more intense than they guessed. She firmly opposed them and suddenly changed her personality.

In the last game, after being discovered, Xin Yuan and Yao Zhen decided together to "go for it" and "never give up". Yao Zhen still had a smile on his face when he left Xin Yuan's house. However, in the next scene, Yao Zhen went back that night. , Yao Zhen followed a medical cart in the hospital corridor.

Yao Zhen's mother actually took sleeping pills for a month! She said that he was shameless, and she wanted shame. She gave birth to neither male nor female, and she could not live anymore. Although, at three in the morning, before taking the medicine, Yao Zhen's mother sent Yao Zhen an e-mail of farewell, and Yao Zhen also had a spare key for his mother's anti-theft door.

During the treatment, Yao Zhen's back was covered in sweat.

Different from the content of his previous life, Wang Jinjin added a show to Xin Yuan. Yao Zhen called Xin Yuan in the hospital corridor. He didn't say anything else, only that Yao's mother was doing gastric lavage.

Xin Yuan's mental activities here are very complicated like vines, he doesn't want to compromise, he doesn't want to lose, but on the other hand, he wants to compromise because he doesn't want to lose more. He was afraid that there would be an accident, and that Yao's mother would do what she said. In that case, he would not only lose Yao Zhen, but also himself.

Jiang Yuan worked hard to get into the role, and he kept saying to himself: "I am Xin Yuan... I am Xin Yuan..." He tried to overlap with Xin Yuan, but it always felt wrong, and that "bye-bye" couldn't even suggest it." I want Yao Zhen to say 'together'" and Yao Zhen to say not to be together. I want to bet that Yao Zhen's mother is just talking about suicide, but I don't dare to bet". He can't act what the director wants him to show. In the end, he even suspected that Wang Jinfa was wrong in choosing him, because he was too different from the character "Xin Yuan". Jiang Yuan heard that some directors asked actors to tell the past during interviews. Only those with overlapping experiences were selected. Jiang Yuan felt that if it were him, he would never just wait for Yao Zhen to give him the final judgment, and he would never continue to associate with gay people who were "married". He would not be so passive and weak.

After a few of them finished filming the "discovery" content in their previous lives, Wang Jinfa went on to film the "Yao Zhen-Shaped Marriage" clip. Jiang Yuan didn't have a chance to touch too delicate emotions, and now he has some setbacks.

When Wang Jinfa saw that his state was not right and asked him "do you want help?", Jiang Yuan thought about it, and still told Wang Jinfa the truth about his suspicions. The director needs to trust the actor, and the actor needs to trust the director.

"This..." Wang Jinfa stroked his very artistic mustache and said, "Well, every director may have his own thinking results, I personally think..." After a pause, he continued. Going on, "Performing is the art of deception."

"Well, the art of deception...?"

"Yes," Wang Jinjin is different from what many directors think, "Of course an actor and a character will not completely overlap. But it doesn't matter, as long as it can make the movie audience feel real, it is the most powerful. Okay. Professional actors certainly don't just have to act on their own."

"Is that so..." This is not the same as what Jiang Yuan has heard all along.

"I guess Shen Du thinks so too." Wang Jinjin laughed, "The roles he has played in recent years are quite different in type, but he has performed all of them, and some of them are still very good. He even said that he is consciously challenging each other. All kinds of roles can be played, not even the male lead." The type of male lead in the movie is relatively fixed.

After speaking, it seems that it is better for Shen Du, who is also an actor, to be more empathetic and to the point. Wang Jinjin waved his hand and joked, "Shen Du! Great actor! Come here!"

Shen Du turned slightly to the side, stared at it for a while, and finally came over.

Wang Jinfa laughed again: "Shen Du, tell me, how did you play the role. If the role is completely different from you, or even worlds apart, how would you show it?" After speaking, he said to Jiang Yuan, "Everyone Actors are different, but you can listen a bit more and find out what works for you."

Jiang Yuan smiled at Wang Jin Jin, "Thank you." He smiled at Shen Du, "Thank you too."

Shen Du was stunned for another two seconds, then lowered his eyes, raised his eyes again, and said every word very seriously, "I can only say, read more textbooks."

Jiang Yuan: "Textbooks?" What are the textbooks?

"Well," Shen Du chuckled again, "the script is your teaching material. It's the same as preparing for the exam. First carefully read the biography of the characters, the lines of the characters, etc., and then try to imitate similar people based on your experience, imagine His movements, his expressions, his tone of voice add flesh and blood to the character, that is, to understand the textbook first."

Jiang Yuan asked, "And then what?"

"Then? Practice, keep practicing." Shen Du continued to answer him, "Some actors think that practice will make them lose their senses. I don't agree with this statement. I think that acting is the same as other work, exactly the same, the more you practice, the more you practice. The more you do, the more familiar you are. I don't believe what others say about "going to the scene to search for feelings". It is true that performing is an art and needs inspiration, but playing the piano is also an art, singing is also an art, dancing is also an art, painting and sculpture are all Art, but pianists practice the same piece over and over again, as do singers and dancers. The performance is not particularly different. You first determine what a performance needs to feel, and then practice and figure it out until you find that feeling.”

Jiang Yuan suddenly became enlightened.

is that so……

Keep practicing?

Can "practice" meet the requirements?

"Well, don't worry," Shen Du said again, "it's normal to practice dozens or hundreds of times. I have a notebook on which is written the start of shooting for each movie, each scene, and each scene. The number of previous exercises is recorded with the word 'Zheng'. I write a stroke every time I practice, and at the end just look at the number of 'Zheng' words behind a certain mirror, and I can know that I am on this mirror No matter how many times I practice, I can know whether my skills are improving or not. As for acting, it depends not only on the evaluation of outsiders, but also on my own thoughts. I still remember that I rowed a total of 105 times. A total of 21 "positive" characters were written after one mirror, while filming "Children of the Earth"."

"Ah..." Jiang Yuan was a little shocked after hearing this.

Shen Du is really like this? ? ?

At the same time, he just had a lot less self-doubt, self-denial, and no longer felt very frustrated. He felt that the actor Shen Du had gone through such a period, so he himself also had a future. What Shen Du can do, he can do too, it's not difficult, he will never lose to anyone what he can give to the movie.

"Okay, okay," Wang Jinfa, who was also a little shocked, interjected at this time, "Let's stop here today. Jiang Yuan went back to think about it, and as Shen Du said, 'practice practice'." Now, out of budget, Most film directors will shoot strictly according to plan, but Wang Jinjin does not like this method. He believes that if every shot is strictly limited to two or three shots, all the adventures will be gone, and all the epiphanies will be gone.

"Okay." Jiang Yuan has a more serious personality. He said, "Thank you Director Wang. By tomorrow, I will definitely be able to play 'Xin Yuan' well."

Wang Jin smiled: "Well, I believe it."

…………

Back at the hotel, Jiang Yuan hurriedly dealt with a dinner by himself, and then started to study his "teaching materials" as Shen Du said. He read it again, read it sentence by sentence, marked all the things that he didn't understand or had doubts, asked Wang Jinfa one by one, read all the lines thoroughly, and finally determined the specific feeling that Xinyuan should present in this game, and then he imagined in his mind. Actions, expressions, eyes, and tone of voice, fill the time with details, and supplement the content with details. In front of the large mirror on the cabinet, perform it over and over again, and then evaluate, think, and adjust. In the end, his performance became visibly smoother and smoother.

Shen Daying was right. Even if the character bears no resemblance to himself, he can play it through understanding and practice. He doesn't need to be exactly like a certain character in the movie, that's not possible, he can fool the movie audience, that's enough.

Filled with a sense of accomplishment, Jiang Yuan was a little happy.

And just when he was going to practice these shots a few more times, remembering the movements, expressions, eyes, tone of voice, and the feeling of each shot just now, there was a knock on the door.

Jiang Yuan looked through the door mirror and found that it was Shen Du!

"..." He wasn't as afraid of Shen Du as he was two days ago, so he opened the door and instinctively raised his lips to smile, "Mr. Shen?" He still didn't forget to "laugh at each other" Survival guide.

Shen Du looked at Jiang Yuan quietly for a while, and then said, "How is it? Tomorrow's play."

"Well," Jiang Yuan said, "I just followed the steps of Teacher Shen, and I feel much better." After speaking, Jiang Yuan felt that it was one thing for the other party to be perverted, but it was another thing to help him improve. , so he answered very sincerely, "Thank you, Teacher Shen."

"...Small thing." Shen Du looked down at the black-covered notebook he was holding, handed it to the opposite Jiang Yuan, then raised his eyes and said, "I brought this as well."

Jiang Yuan lowered his head and asked hesitantly, "This is...?"

"A notebook for recording the character "Zheng"." Shen Du said, "Actually, it's useless to me. Now... I can practice every scene at most two or three times, so it doesn't make much sense to memorize it. I used to be reluctant to lose it, but tonight I suddenly felt that I could give it to a newcomer as an encouragement. This way it also has some meaning."

"...Ah." Jiang Yuan was really surprised. During the day, Shen Du said that he has a notebook on which is written the number of exercises for each movie, each scene, and each scene. It is recorded with the character "Zheng". How many "positive" characters are there.

Jiang Yuan was a little flattered: "I... me?"

"Well," Shen Du still held his hand, "keep it away."

Jiang Yuan thought about it: "Okay." He took it seriously, opened it, and found that Emperor Shen's handwriting was very handsome and pleasing to the eye.

The columns on the left of each page of the notebook are the date, title, number of scenes, and shot number, followed by the word "Zheng" one by one. At the beginning, there were a lot of "positive" characters, and there were often several or even dozens of "positive" characters behind a scene. At the same time, probably because Shen Du was a supporting role in the movie at that time, after a movie was finished, he appeared on the scene. There are not many, from two or three to seven or eight, one page is enough for Shen Du to write down the several films he has acted in, but later, a film takes up several pages, but each scene and each scene are followed by The number of "zheng" characters has decreased sharply. In most cases, only the first stroke of a straight character is present, and only the second and third strokes of a straight character are very rare.

"Okay." Shen Du lowered his eyes and gave Jiang Yuan a deep look, "This is for you. Nothing else."

"Thank you." Jiang Yuan also solemnly said again, "I will cherish it and work hard."

"Well, I believe it."

…………

After Shen Du left, Jiang Yuan closed the door of the room and opened the notebook again.

He found that this book is concise and clear, with a maximum of ten "positive" characters per line, and a new line if there are more.

Jiang Yuan probably flipped through it, and felt that Shen Du had been filming these films over the years, and there were at least 5,000 words and 25,000 strokes of the word "zheng".

He was touched by the other party again.

It turns out that Shen Du became the "Big Three" actor by doing this.

Jiang Yuan even thought: Metamorphosis... Shen Du may not want it either, this kind of psychological thing may be born, he can't help it.

On the other side, Shen Du stood in the corridor, lowered his eyes, and looked at his empty hand.

He finally gave the notebook to Jiang Yuan.

There are a total of 4,750 "positive" characters on it, with a total of 23,750 strokes.

——Besides the official filming, I also practiced 23,750 times in front of the mirror alone before I finally got to know you.
