For the favor of Mr. Nie

The name of "Myself" sounds literary and artistic, but in fact it is a political war drama.

The ambitious son Yue was dissatisfied with his cousin's succession to the throne, and assassinated the king on his way back to the imperial court, regaining the throne himself and becoming the new King Chen.But Zhan Yu, the son of his cousin, who is brave and good at fighting, was forced to exile abroad, and he recruited soldiers and horses to prepare for counterattack, which became a serious worry for King Chen.

The role played by Tong Yan is another assassin, named Cheng Zhu, who is the tool sent by King Chen to solve the serious troubles in his heart.

However, they still put a lot of thought into this assassination.When Zhan Yu raised the issue, Cheng Zhu was already well-known around King Chen. In order to convince Zhan Yu that Cheng Zhu had broken with King Chen, King Chen ordered to kill Cheng Zhu's wife in public and cut off an arm of Cheng Zhu.

In this way, when Cheng Zhu appeared, Zhan Yu only regarded him as sincerely joining him. After several encounters, he regarded Cheng Zhu as a confidant. Fate under the sword.

Two days before the start-up, Director Jin asked Tong Yan to chat about the play, and the opening sentence was naturally: "What do you think of Cheng Zhu?"

Tong Yan said: "Loyalty means righteousness in heart, but ruthlessness in doing things."

This is the truth, no matter what method the young master used to seize the throne, after he succeeded to the throne, the Kingdom of Chen was stronger than when the previous king was there. It was reasonable for Zhan Yu to want revenge, but years of wars and chaos have caused hardships to the people.This is probably why Cheng Zhu was determined to carry out the assassination to the end.And, because of this situation, even my own wife's life was lost, what is it not to be ruthless?

Director Jin shook his head and said: "This is a routine. I didn't plan to shoot the show on a routine this time. I devoted myself to everything, and I was talking about obsession. Everyone in this play has obsession. The more the son Obsessed with power, Zhan Yu is obsessed with heroism, and it is Cheng Zhu's wife who is obsessed with loyalty. She was originally a slave girl, but she was rescued from the dead by Cheng Zhu's protection. She died for Cheng Zhu, and it was her. Loyalty."

Tong Yan: "..." Obsession, ...Each character must be obsessed with the same thing, right?

His guess was half right.

Director Jin said: "Of course, Cheng Zhu is loyal to King Chen, but I hope it's not all. This thing can't pass the trial if it's explicit, so there won't be any ambiguous plot in the play, but You have to show it."

Tong Yan: "...!" This is really... an unusual path, Cheng Zhu's obsession is his broken love for Chen Wang?

No wonder!This plot is clearly based on the historical facts of Wu Wang Helu, Yaoli and Qingji. No wonder Jin Daofei wanted to set aside the background, probably because he was spoofing the ancients and felt sorry for it.

Soon, power on.In Tong Yan's first scene, an arm was cut off by Chen Wang.He stood there and finished his lines, and became furious at the actors in the play, and asked the warriors in front of the palace to push him out and cut off his arm. When Tong Yan was taken away, he turned his head and looked at the king in the palace in disbelief. It was for the people in the hall, Tong Yan couldn't help looking back at this moment, with a bit of expectation in his eyes.

These precious things that belonged to him will soon be lost because of men, he does not regret nor regret, he just wants Chen Wang to look at him again.

Tong Yan felt that he had expressed enough. Who knows, Director Jin stopped him with a click, and said, "Tong Yan, that's not the case, it's not enough. Come and have a look."

Tong Yan had no choice but to watch.

This time, he had more than loyalty and bravery, but not enough affection.Director Jin talked to him for a while, "You have to grasp the things in your eyes, understand? The kind of eyes that look at your lover."

Tong Yan pondered on the monitor for a few minutes, "Okay, come again."

Then, ushered in the second NG.

He spent the whole morning in NG.

In the past, it is not that Tong Yan did not have emotional scenes, but no matter whether it is a movie or a TV series, none of them required him to deliberately express his feelings.But in this movie, there is no plot that depicts emotions, and all expressions can only rely on his eyes. Only then did Tong Yan realize that his control of emotions and eyes is far from the standard of the big screen.

In the whole crew, in the first three days of filming, he had the most NGs.

To make a character's facial expression enough to impress people, there are only a few points: the actor's ability to manage the expression, and the expressive power to properly express what is deposited in the heart after entering the character after thoroughly understanding the character's spiritual essence.Tong Yan asked himself, this time, like before, he tried his best to understand the character, but, no, still wrong, his performance never kept up with the director's requirements.

The more times he NGed, the shooting progress had to be slowed down.However, after slowing down the pace, his performance was still unsatisfactory in the final pass, and Tong Yan became the one who was dragged away.

Jin Chi has high requirements for actors. Therefore, this drama does not distinguish between leading roles and supporting roles. The actors are all capable of acting. Tong Yan originally thought that he was the same, but now it seems that this "all" is likely to be excluded. .

Sure enough, what kind of skills he has can be seen by comparing with the experts.

Of course, Tong Yan was not reconciled to the end of the crane. On the third night of the shooting, after returning to the hotel, he called the old man.Facing the teacher, he originally wanted to answer questions, maybe seeing that he was really not in good condition, the next day, the old man came to the location in person.

Gutou was respected by everyone in the circle, so when he arrived, even Director Jin himself stopped for a few minutes to greet him.The more polite Director Jin is to the old man, the more ashamed Tong Yan is. With such an amazing teacher, his student can't mention anything, which hurts my heart!

On this day, there happened to be a rival scene between Cheng Zhu and Chen Wang, and the old man watched him finish the whole filming.

After watching this journey, the old man called him aside, unable to put on a good expression, and said, "You can't do this. No matter why Jin Chi asked you to behave like that, you are an actor, and if he has a request, you just do it." You have to express it. No, emotional scenes, the heat that is naturally projected by the eyes, the heat that can't be suppressed, can't you express it? Have you ever been in love? Think about your own feelings when you are in love."

Tong Yan raised his hand and touched his forehead irritably, closed his eyes to brew his emotions for a while, and when he opened them again, he looked straight at the old head and said, "Look at me, isn't that so?"

Tong Yan can't help it. At present, he can't make him do what Director Jin asked.Movies lack the ability to project the external and detailed portrayals from the spiritual essence of the characters, and the drama still has to be performed, so can the stylized expression of TV dramas work?He just let the old head check, set the specific expressions of several characters in specific emotions, and then used them as templates in the play.

After all, the shooting time of the film cannot be extended from four months to five months just because he can't do it.

When the old man heard this, he became anxious and began to give him an in-depth explanation. Tong Yan watched the old man's mouth flutter up and down in a daze. It was useless. He understood every word the old man said, and he had already Arrived, that is to say, his talent is limited, and his performance can only go so far.

So, Tong Yan started the way of expressing that he was reacting, and his body was not hot. At first, it was just playing with Chen Wang's opponent.Then, when playing against other people, he also became in this dazed state. It was right for Director Jin to let him pass, but he didn't dare to think about how much compromise was involved.

At noon half a month after the start, he stayed on the set to watch other people's plays.

This time, it was Pei Yi who played Zhan Yu, and Tong Yan had been harassed by this person before, so even if he bumped into the same crew again, he seldom paid attention to this person.If he doesn't respond, it doesn't mean that people won't continue to move forward.After a scene, Tong Yan watched the effect behind the monitor, just as Director Jin went to answer the phone, Pei Yi came over.

Pei Yi sat next to him and followed his gaze, "How is my performance in this scene, can you give me some advice?"

Tong Yan didn't care about their private quarrels at the moment, he suddenly realized a problem, Director Jin said how the filming of Pei Yi's scene was good, he couldn't see the good thing.Similarly, he can't tell whether his own play is good or not now.

So, how did he get his "good acting skills" personality?

In the middle of the night, Tong Yan went back to the hotel and lay on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.

Then, by accident, he took out his phone, turned to that page, and entered his name.

He's like opening Pandora's box.

Nie Zheng once told him that there is no public figure without negative comments, don't read what you shouldn't look at, and don't care about what you shouldn't care about.From then until now, every time he surfs the Internet, he only uses his trumpet to check the reposts of his big fans and the comments on his Weibo. He has not paid attention to what the rest of the people say for a long time.

After this search, sure enough, under the cut of the scene of the horse bandit leader, besides his fans booing, there were other voices.

"Tong Yan's acting skills are blowing up again. It's not shameful to rely on face to make a living, but it's not shameful to show off face and blow yourself up like an old drama. The coffin of the patriarch I can't hold it any longer!"

"The most annoying thing about this company's acting skills. If you really have this material in cooking, you will have become popular a long time ago. You can't even win the rookie award. You are not afraid of hitting yourself in the face when you boast about your acting skills."

And so on, I don't know how many.It was like a big wave hitting Tong Yan's head, making his ears buzzing and his face burning with pain.

That night, Tong Yan suffered from insomnia.

The filming was stumbling, and in a blink of an eye, New Year's Day passed, and 2014 came.

2014 was a very difficult year for Tong Yan, but not without good things.

At the end of January, the Bai Lamei Award was announced.Tong Yan didn't really want to go at first, but when Director Zheng signed the contract, he specifically asked the production crew for the afternoon and half-day schedule of the next day, and Xiaotian bought him a plane ticket very responsibly, so he came back from the crew at noon , Tong Yan packed up his things and set off.

Tong Yan is not in good spirits these days, driving all the way, he was confused all the way, in a trance, he felt as if he was running on the way home from the finale as before, it seemed that after the plane landed, and it took another hour to enter the city, he would be able to see that man.

Then, when the man sees him well, he encourages him a few words, and when he sees something bad, he teaches him a lesson, but it doesn’t matter, it’s going home, and just the word “go home” can make people feel comfortable and at ease. One stop is fine.

A piercing whistle sounded suddenly, and Tong Yan woke up suddenly. Looking at the gloomy sky outside the window and the cars passing by on the highway, he finally remembered that Nie Zheng had been away for more than half a year.

Regardless of melancholy, his thoughts quickly came back to tonight's awards ceremony. With his role as the leader of the horse bandit in "Canglongjiao", he also participated in the best supporting actor competition. He had mixed feelings about the Wintersweet Award - Mingxuan was the winner of the White Wintersweet Award, and the gold content of this award fell because of Mingxuan's purchase of the award.

In 2014, the only good thing that happened to Tong Yan - he won the Best Supporting Actor at the Bai Lamei Award.

Sitting in the hall of the auditorium, when he heard his name from the mouth of the award presenter, Tong Yan was pushed to stand up by Zheng Zhaohua in disbelief.But he is undoubtedly happy, no matter how much gold content, this is his first trophy.

The state is not good, and nothing can be said too much, so, happy to be happy, Tong Yan was not ecstatic when he delivered his acceptance speech.

Going off the stage, he leaned into Zheng Zhaohua's ear and asked, "Are you sure we didn't spend money on this award?"

Zheng Zhaohua looked at the stage with a happy face, and said in a low voice: "Don't think about Mingxuan, the fact now is that your acting skills are recognized by the industry, you just need to remember this."

It must be a fart, it is clear that this year's opponents are not enough to look down on, and let him, a blind cat, bump into a dead mouse.

Winning the prize was not enough. This night, at the celebration banquet, when he left the room of the clubhouse, Xiao Tian immediately greeted him, "Brother Tong, you are finally done. Let's go out through the back door."

Tong Yan drank too much and felt a little dizzy, but he didn't feel anything wrong, so he really followed Xiao Tian out the back door.

They didn't just go out the back door, they went all the way out the backyard.

There is a lake across the road outside the courtyard. In the middle of the night, the road was empty. Tong Yan saw that there was no car, and suddenly became impatient: "You—"

Without saying a word, he was stunned.Under the street lamp, a tall figure stood quietly.

It was cold, and the man was wearing a black cashmere coat, with a layer of warm yellow light covering his shoulders.Hearing his voice, the man turned around, and a handsome and profound face appeared in his sight. Immediately, his thin lips lifted slightly, and he said to him in that familiar voice, "Congratulations."

Tong Yan didn't expect to see Nie Zheng tonight. It seemed that Nie Zheng was there at every important moment that belonged to him since they met each other.

Regardless of whether other people would appear, he rushed up, threw himself on the man, and hugged him, "Mr. Nie—"

Then he couldn't think of what to say, and he didn't know where to start with a thousand words. He was happy, yes, he was happy, no matter what kind of entanglement he had in his heart, when Nie Zheng stood in front of him, he was still happy.

Nie Zheng was held by him, with one arm wrapped around his waist, his palm retracted forcefully, and a smile appeared in his voice, "Fortunately, I haven't lost much weight."

Tong Yan put his arms around the man's shoulders and refused to let go. He was being led by the man, and the two of them walked around in circles on the ground for a few steps. When his back was facing the road, Nie Zheng patted him on the back. , "Let me see you."

Only then did he let go, and stood up straight in front of the man, unable to hold back the smile at the corner of his mouth, even though he felt stupid.

He hadn't seen Nie Zheng for half a year.

But in front of him, Nie Zheng didn't seem to have changed much from half a year ago, those deep eyes always contained many things that he couldn't see clearly.

Looking at each other, Tong Yan asked, "Have I become ugly?"

Nie Zheng's eyes darkened, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "No, I can see that you have been working hard to grow."

Tong Yan couldn't bear it, and burst out laughing.

In an instant, Nie Zheng raised his hanging arm and handed something in front of him, "Best Supporting Actor, I should give you some reward, take it."

He bowed his head, stretched out his hand to take the things, and was happy.

The reward Nie Zheng gave him was a toy car...

Tong Yan held the gift in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully. It was only the size of a palm, and it was exquisitely made.He raised his hand and broke it with his hand, and the door could still be opened.Then, I didn’t know where, I could barely squeeze my fingers into the compartment, and the lights were turned on. If it was placed in Lilliputian, the back seat would be able to lie down, it should be considered very spacious, the configuration of a caravan.

It was very interesting, Tong Yan couldn't help playing with it, and then he heard Nie Zheng say: "Model nanny car."

Although there was no need for any gifts at all, he would be happy if Nie Zheng could show up, but Tong Yan still made a joke, "Hey, Mr. Nie, you are Mr. Nie, and you are giving away a model car. Who will believe it if you tell me."

This joke is a typical example of getting cheap and being good-looking: Tong Yan reckoned that Nie Zheng would not be able to do it to anyone except him if he bothered to make an exquisite gadget as a gift.

He was mean, and Nie Zheng nodded in agreement, "It makes sense, that's what you said."

Tong Yan, who got into the cover by himself, was still smiling unconsciously, still looking at Nie Zheng and smiling.

Then, he heard the road behind him, the sound of a car's motor moving from far to near.

At this moment, Nie Zheng's staring eyes swept behind him.Tong Yan realized something, turned around and saw a black luxury MPV slowly driving over with a huge body.

Tong Yan didn't recover until the car stopped behind him and the taillights turned on.

This car is exactly the same as the one in his hand, as if the original model has been enlarged hundreds of times.
