Rebirth of the Unworthy

Another weekend, Li Rongxiu came to play a guest role at the invitation of Director Chen.Xin Mengmeng and others were curious about what kind of dog Li Rongxiu would play in his debut novel, so they all followed.

Before the filming started, Director Chen put down his airs and talked to Li Rongxiu personally.The role he was going to play was a son of a rich family, spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and loved by many.He fell in love with the heroine played by Maggie Cheung in the film at first sight, and then launched a passionate pursuit.In the end, he blocked the gun for Zhang Wanyu and died.It took less than 10 minutes to play from beginning to end, which is considered to be a cannon fodder-level spare tire.

It ended up blowing out.

Generally speaking, it is a role that does not require high acting skills, but has a positive and pleasing image.

The most important thing is to play with both the male and female protagonists. If Li Rongxiu is not a cameo, but seriously wants to enter the entertainment industry, such an opportunity will simply make his way to the top.

Of course, if you want to play with Lin Wanhui and Zhang Wanyu, who can be regarded as veteran actors with superb acting skills, without being overwhelmed by the other party, such a newcomer with average strength may not be able to control it.Fortunately, Li Rongxiu has a special status. Director Chen believed that when Li Rongxiu entered the filming, Lin Wanhui and Zhang Wanyu would do everything possible to set off each other well.

After a brief talk about the drama, Li Rongxiu entered the dressing room and began to put on makeup.The dressing room he used belonged to Lin Wanhui, and even the makeup artist was Miss K who was used by Lin Wanhui.Because the cosmetics brought by Sister K are more high-end than the ones in the crew, they will not damage the skin, and the effect of the painting is better.

Sister K was putting on makeup for Li Rongxiu, and at the same time praised Li Rongxiu for his good skin and foundation. If he entered the entertainment industry, he would definitely become the hottest handsome young man.

Zhao Qijun and the others stayed in the dressing room, touching and looking around, and they all found it very interesting.Xin Mengmeng brought up the old story again, "When we're free, can we make a movie together?"

Li Rongxiu thought about it, and said casually: "Why not? We can make a graduation movie when we graduate from high school to commemorate our high school life."

"Then when we graduate from college, we will make a similar movie to commemorate our college life?" Zhou Ruixin said, glanced at the enthusiastic Xin Mengmeng, and said with a smile: "That's a good relationship, quite interesting."

He does not mean that.The assistant director who was by the side at Director Chen's order secretly glanced at Li Rongxiu several times, thinking that the sons and brothers from this aristocratic family are different.Under the influence of ears and eyes, even a dude who doesn't do production has a better sense of the market than ordinary people.

After putting on makeup for a while, Li Rongxiu changed the costume again.It is a special three-piece suit, white shirt, beige vest and suit pants, and there is a bright and eye-catching rose in the chest pocket.Li Rongxiu stood in front of the mirror and took a picture, smiled, and a playboy breath came over his face.

The assistant director stood behind clapping his hands and laughing: "Like, like, very similar. Just like Chen Mobai who came out of the script."

Xin Mengmeng and the others thought it might be different, this is not a true character.

While speaking, Li Rongxiu was surrounded by everyone and entered the set.When Director Chen saw Li Rongxiu came out in a different outfit, he nodded secretly.Even when Li Rongxiu came to him, he made gestures and told him what walking was and how to face the camera.After Li Rongxiu consciously adjusted, he started shooting.

This scene is about Chen Mobai, a son of a family, driving by the square, and happens to meet the heroine played by Maggie Cheung playing the violin by the musical fountain.The golden sunlight swayed wantonly, forming a rainbow on the fountain.Under the blue sky and white clouds, under the sun and the breeze, there are white doves flying, and the appearance of the heroine with fluttering long hair playing the violin leisurely, immediately caught Chen Mobai's eyes.

This episode is actually very easy to act, Li Rongxiu only needs to bring out half of the feelings he had when he was a girl in his previous life, and that's enough.

As for the issue of walking and looking at the camera, because it is a long-range shot or a close-up shot, most of them have lighting and camera crews to contribute, but Li Rongxiu does not need to act.

Sure enough, this time it's over.

Director Chen was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Li Rongxiu's first exposure to filming would be so impressive.

What followed was the old-fashioned strike-ups, clichés, and crazy pursuits, all of which Li Rongxiu performed with ease.

Then it is to block the gun for others.Originally, Chen Mobai still had some lines before he died, but Li Rongxiu felt that speaking with blood in it was too ink stained and disgusting, and he didn't know such professional skills, so he was afraid of choking on it.In the end, I suggested that Director Chen erase this scene, and let him die directly.

Director Chen listened to the music, and he hadn't heard of the actor who automatically cut the scene because he thought it was troublesome.

But Li Rongxiu is not an ordinary actor.What's more, his explanation is quite convincing——

"When I used to watch movies and TV series, I was most annoyed by those actors who would not die, and could still talk for ten minutes intermittently. It was not crisp at all. Since Director Chen wanted to make a masterpiece that combines literary and commercial elements , it shouldn’t fall into the cliché. Can we change this paragraph to something new and let me die straight away? This will also show our killer expertise!”

Everyone was amused by the speech, and Director Chen really discussed with the screenwriter to see how to change this paragraph so that it can be concise, capable and unique, leaving a deep impression on people.

After throwing the problem to the screenwriter, Li Rongxiu leisurely returned to rest outside the set.Zhao Qijun hurriedly brought over a cup of hot milk tea.It's late December and it's freezing cold.People stood outside for a long time, and their hands were shaking from the cold.

Li Rongxiu drank half a cup of milk tea in one breath, and then let out a satisfied breath.Sim Mengmeng said regretfully and eagerly at the side: "It's fun to watch you make a movie. It's a pity that there is no role that I can play in the show, otherwise I would also play a guest role."

Zhou Ruixin changed the subject bluntly and said: "By the way, when are we going to eat? There is a new farmhouse opened on the hillside in the North District, and they say it is very good. In winter, you can go fishing in the reservoir, and there is a hot kang, where you can sit Eat on the kang."

Li Rongxiu thought for a while, and said directly: "When I finish filming this scene, we'll go there - why don't you reserve a seat first. In case we don't get a good box when we go over."

Zhou Ruixin nodded, turned around and went out to book a private room.

Lin Wanhui and Zhang Wanyu came in again, bringing hand warmers and a set of heating appliances, and by the way flattered Li Rongxiu's acting talent.Li Rongxiu listened for a while, and saw that the two were flattering, so he deliberately asked them to go to the farmhouse.But thinking about Zhou Ruixin's attitude towards Lin Wanhui, he didn't say anything.

The screenwriter changed the plot for a while, and the drama manager called Li Rongxiu to come and act.After the last paragraph was edited, Chen Mobai was lying in the arms of the heroine played by Zhang Wanyu, his eyes were wide open, staring at Zhang Wanyu full of infatuation, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, just died in silence .

Director Chen specially said: "The most important thing in this paragraph is to repair your eyes. Thousands of words are in this eyes."

Who made you not talkative.The plot that cannot be described in words can only be reflected in more complex physical performance.

Li Rongxiu nodded, and began to think about how to perform this scene.Then he began to substitute himself, how would he feel if he were Chen Mobai, and what would he want to say before he died.

Thinking about Li Rongxiu, he thought of the time when the sports car fell off the cliff before his death in his previous life.

All his life, eating, drinking and having fun has always been free and easy, and he has never been restrained by anyone.The same is true for Chen Mobai's first half of his life.It's just that he is different from himself, because he died for love.

At least in name.

But it is written like this in the script, what about in reality?

Chen Mobai has a good family background, a good appearance, a pleasant personality and a sweet mouth.He had a great age, a lot of time and energy to squander.As a result, the first time I was moved, I died because of Zhang Wanyu.If he was given another chance to choose, would he still choose this way?

Which is more important, a woman who can't talk about understanding or her own life?

Li Rongxiu was thinking, unwillingness slowly appeared in his wide-open eyes, he gave Zhang Wanyu a painful look, his dark eyes were crying physiologically because of the physical pain, and they became more and more shiny and moist.The long curled thick eyelashes were covered with tiny teardrops, and under the sunshine, they instantly exuded eye-catching attraction.

He just stared at Zhang Wanyu for a long time, and finally closed his eyes slowly.

He didn't know if he regretted it, but he believed that if time came back and he was given another chance, he would still choose this way.

This choice has nothing to do with the identity and wishes of the other party, because Chen Mobai is a person who wants to show off.If he can't do what he wants in life, what is he living for?

Zhang Wanyu, who was hugging Li Rongxiu, was stunned. She felt the real confusion and unwillingness of Li Rongxiu almost the moment Li Rongxiu looked at her.This desire for life strongly shocked her, making her forget that she was acting...

Director Chen in front of the monitor was also stunned.

To be honest, when changing this part of the plot, Director Chen was worried.Although Li Rongxiu's suggestion was good, but the other party's acting skills were too poor. Director Chen worried whether Li Rongxiu could interpret this complicated feeling.If it can be performed, then this section will definitely become a small climax of the film, and even have a chance to become a classic shot.But it would be a pity if it didn't work out...

In the end, the screenwriter woke up the dreamer. "Why are you bothering about this? Originally, Chen Mobai's character is half a vase character, used to highlight the charm of the heroine. So he can die anyway, and it won't affect the plot at all."

"What's more, Young Master Xiu proposed to change this scene, he doesn't care about it anymore, why are you worried about it?"

For screenwriters like them, it is the most normal thing to change the play at the request of the crew, investors, and producers.Investors such as Li Rongxiu are considered good, because they just deleted their own plots because they thought it was troublesome, and even more unreliable, relying on their own investment of two dollars, they asked the crew to change the script, forced people to praise them, and finally changed the plot. It's so messy and unrecognizable that you have to admit that you are unlucky if you encounter it.

After the last scene surprised everyone, Li Rongxiu's cameo came to an end.According to the rules, Director Chen wrapped a red envelope for Li Rongxiu. After receiving it, Li Rongxiu directly ordered the field manager to buy hot drinks and cupcakes for everyone.In the end, everyone left the crew with seemingly reluctant enthusiasm.
