The bard joins the entertainment industry

Fujiwara Bunta, Fujiwara Takumi’s father, owner of Fujiwara Tofu Shop in Gunma Prefecture.

When he was young, he was a famous road racer. After retiring, Bunta Fujiwara made a living by running a Fujiwara tofu shop.

But secretly, he racked his brains and used various methods to train his son Fujiwara Takumi to become a genius drag racing expert.

In this first scene, Takumi and Natsuki agreed to go to the beach together and wanted to use a car. Bunta took the opportunity to use a tank of gas to seduce Takumi and Keisuke Takahashi to race.

Although this was supposed to be a night scene and it was morning now, in order to catch up with Chen Shuo and Andy Lau's scenes as much as possible, we could only shoot it during the day and adjust it later.

Liu Dehua was sitting in the living room, watching TV with a cigarette in his mouth.

Chen Shuo came back from outside, looked at his back, and walked upstairs with his thoughts in mind.

When I got to the corner, I suddenly thought of my agreement with Natsuki, turned around and said, "I want to use the car this Sunday."

Liu Dehua said without looking back: "Sunday? Ah, no."

Compared with the previous filming of "House of Flying Daggers", Andy Lau's accent has improved a lot when speaking his lines.

This is why he takes the script and tries to figure out the lines on weekdays.

He is a very serious and resilient person. He is accustomed to speaking Cantonese when speaking, and it is difficult to change his accent when speaking Mandarin.

But when filming with Chen Shuo, every time he watched the replay, he felt like he was in a drama when he heard his own voice.

In order to avoid this embarrassment, you can only prepare in advance.

Liu Weiqiang and Mai Chaohui, who were sitting in front of the monitor, couldn't help but sit up straight when they heard Andy Lau's lines.

"When did Andy's lines become so good?"

Mai Chaohui shook his head and said, "Who knows?"

Liu Weiqiang rubbed his chin and said: "Is Zhang Yimou really so miraculous? The actors in his hands are as if they have been reborn?"

Then the two set their sights on Chen Shuo, a newcomer who had only made one movie.

Chen Shuo felt very comfortable listening to Liu Dehua's lines. He didn't care about anyone else and just acted seriously.

When he said no, I couldn't help but ask: "Why? I will deliver the goods in the morning."

Although Liu Dehua felt that this was an opportunity, he was not in a hurry to reveal his purpose.

"That's not the problem. The Chamber of Commerce will have a meeting on Sunday and I need to use the car."

"Really?" Chen Shuo was dubious about what he said, but he also knew that it would be difficult for him to use the car, so he couldn't help but muttered: "It's over."

Then he said with some guilt: "I must use the car on Sunday!"

Liu Dehua's squinted eyes opened and he laughed twice: "Hey, it seems it's for women!"

Chen Shuo immediately looked like he had guessed what he was thinking, and retorted with a red face: "It doesn't matter why, right? Don't put on airs, just lend it to me!"

Finally, he counterattacked with some embarrassment: "It's just a broken car anyway. I'll drive away by myself when the time comes."

Seeing Chen Shuo's performance, Liu Weiqiang and Mai Chaohui couldn't help but secretly praise him. Sure enough, he was really good at it.

In just a few words, Chen Shuo pretended to express his purpose nonchalantly at first, but then became a little anxious after being rejected and set out his own conditions.

When I heard the reason for using the car, I became a little doubtful. When I said that I must use the car, I seemed a little guilty.

The embarrassment of being exposed and the counterattack that pretends to be calm.

This series of performances changes so naturally that it makes people look like he is really a young man who wants to go on a date by car to compete with his father in a battle of wits.

This made the two of them feel that this role was really not difficult for him.

He doesn't even look like a young actor who is so comfortable.

The performance continued, after I heard that if I could win against Keisuke Takahashi, I would be able to get the right to use the car and fill up a tank of gas for him.

Chen Shuo pondered for a while. Although he said that he wanted to think about it, his faint intention was very obvious.

After he turned around and went up the stairs again, Mai Chaohui shouted: "OK!"

Chen Shuo went down the stairs, went to Liu Weiqiang and Liu Weiqiang together with Liu Dehua and asked, "Director, how was the effect?"

Although he has seen excellent tips, in the end it still depends on the director's opinion.

Liu Weiqiang gave him a thumbs up and said: "Very good, very good, passed!"

After hearing this, Zhou Jielun, Cheng Guanxi and others couldn't help but gathered around them, wanting to watch the replay.

Liu Weiqiang also simply played back the scene just now.

Several people had just watched Chen Shuo's performance from the sidelines, and they felt as if they were watching a movie live.

At this time, through the lens, I have a different feeling.

Looking at the picture on the screen, you can't help but lock your eyes on Chen Shuo, and you can easily feel the emotions he wants to express without any deliberate feeling.

After watching it again, Cheng Guanxi had to admit that if he really wanted to play Fujiwara Takumi, he might not be able to act so naturally.

Zhou Jielun remained silent. After watching Chen Shuo's performance, he seemed to have a vague sense of what performance was.

At the same time, he also understood how his friends felt when they saw that he could compose music easily.

He can distinguish what kind of performance is good and qualified.

However, this feeling is not good.

Because he can also feel that it is extremely difficult for him to achieve Chen Shuo's level.

This couldn't help but make him even more silent.

Over and over again, I pondered in my mind how I should present the character of Ryosuke Takahashi.

After shooting some more close-ups and reverse shots, the first scene was successfully completed.

Although there was talk of winning the first scene in Xiangjiang, there was no intention of calling it a day and waiting for the next day.

Instead, we directly filmed the scene again after Takumi defeated Keisuke and returned.

Just like the previous scene, Andy Lau was still sitting at the coffee table, and the TV was still on, but he had an extra newspaper in his hand.

Chen Shuo was still standing where he had just entered, looking at his back quietly for a while, then turned and went upstairs.

When Liu Dehua turned around in confusion, Chen Shuo came back and said, "Fill up the gas, you promised."

Seeing that he ignored it, he emphasized again and said, "You promised!"

Then he turned around and went upstairs.

After two scenes of filming, the transition started.

Now what Liu Weiqiang and others are thinking about is to hurry up and end the scene in the tofu shop.

Chen Shuo and Liu Dehua from the province were away for more than ten days, which delayed the subsequent filming.

During lunch, Chen Shuo brought his lunch box and was about to find a cool place.

Summer here in Japan is still very hot.

"Go over there to eat." Before he could find a good place, Zhou Jielun came to him and pointed to the house opposite and said coolly.

"Okay." Seeing that he seemed to have something to say to him, Chen Shuo nodded and walked out with him to the opposite side.

There was no place to sit under the corner. Zhou Jielun was about to call his assistant to bring a chair when he saw Chen Shuo sitting on the ground, placing his lunch box on the ground and opening it.

I swallowed the words that came to my lips, and after thinking about it, I sat down on the ground and waved to the assistant who came over with a chair.

Chen Shuo saw the round-faced female assistant holding two stools and waving to her with chopsticks.

The assistant paused and brought the chair over. Chen Shuo stood up, took one and sat on it.

Seeing him like this, Zhou Jielun couldn't help but be stunned. Then he stood up, patted his butt, and sat on the chair put down by the assistant.

Said: "I thought you liked sitting on the floor."

"Why sit on the floor if there is a chair?" Chen Shuo picked up a piece of sushi and stuffed it into his mouth.

In Japan, this lunch box is also Japanese-style. I wonder if there are stir-fried vegetables and the like. Just eating this thing is not a problem, right?

"Teach me how to act." Zhou Jielun imitated him, resting his elbows on his knees and looking at the Fujiwara Tofu Shop opposite.

"Okay, call Master to come and listen." Chen Shuo said casually.

"Believe it or not, I'll beat him to death?" Zhou Jielun glanced at him.

"I don't believe it." Chen Shuo simply shook his head.

Zhou Jielun was speechless for a while. Back then, Du Wen was so strong that he could grab it with one hand. But with his small body, it would take more than just one finger to knock him down if he really had to gesticulate.

He threw his chopsticks down and said, "Tell me, how can you teach me?"

"Write two songs for me to use as repairs."

Ancient literature education is relatively widespread in Taiwan, so Zhou Jielun naturally understands what Shu Xiu means.

But what he didn't understand was.

"Don't you know how to write songs yourself? Why do you want me to help you write songs?"

Chen Shuo glanced at him and said, "I'm happy to do it. Why not use it if I have free labor?"

"Fuck!" He couldn't help but give Chen Shuo the middle finger, nodded fiercely and said, "Okay!"

Chen Shuo didn't care about his impoliteness. He leaned back, crossed his legs and said with a proud smile, "If you have anything to ask, just ask it. Don't say you haven't thought at all during this time."

Not to be outdone, Zhou Jielun also crossed her legs and said, "The result of my thinking is that my character is more suitable for playing Fujiwara Takumi."

"so what?"

"But you are more suitable." Zhou Jielun sighed and said, "I thought I was suitable because I thought my personality was very similar to Takumi's.

After watching your performance today, I realized that this is acting.

If I were to act, it would be more similar to Fujiwara Takumi in some aspects.

And you, as soon as the filming starts, people will know that this is Fujiwara Takumi. "

"It's not that exaggerated." Chen Shuo shook his head and praised: "But the fact that you can see this shows that you are talented in performance. At least you can understand what performance is.

Do you feel now that the personalities of you and Ryosuke Takahashi are quite different, and you don’t know how to proceed? "

"Yes." Zhou Jielun nodded and said, "Actually, I have a template for Ryosuke Takahashi in my heart, but I don't know how...how..."

He couldn't find the adjective for a while, so he could only gesture in the hope that Chen Shuo could understand what he meant.

Chen Shuo also understood what he meant and nodded: "It's like writing a song. When you have an inspiration..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Jielun said quickly: "Yes, yes, it's like writing a song.

After I have an inspiration, I can naturally turn it into a melody and present it.

But now, I don’t know how to present this character. "

"It's very simple. The reason why there is this difference is because of the difference in basic skills." Chen Shuo explained: "You have studied music since you were a child and have a strong talent in music.

When you have inspiration, your talent and foundation can easily support your creation.

But when it comes to acting, you have never been exposed to it, or you have very little contact with it, and you have no formal study or experience.

Then the more talented you are, the more you will feel like you have no idea where to start. "

Zhou Jielun sighed: "Then it's too late for me to practice basic skills now?"

"What do you think are the characteristics of Ryosuke Takahashi?"

Zhou Jielun said without hesitation: "Calm, calm, good at thinking and summarizing, imitating other people's characteristics, and seizing other people's weaknesses."

Although he feels that he is not good at acting, he still thinks that he understands the characters very well.

"Simply summarize it in one word."

Zhou Jielun thought for a while and said: "Cool!"

Chen Shuo had finished eating at this time, put away the lunch box, looked at him and asked: "Do you think you are cool?"

"I'm a super dick, okay?" Zhou Jielun said unconvinced.

Chen Shuo didn't care, he spread his hands to him and said, "Look, isn't this the breakthrough?

Although when deciding whether an actor is suitable for a role, you can't just look at whether he looks like the character.

However, no one is perfect. As long as he can play a role, it must be that the actor has certain qualities that match the role.

Whether it is natural or with superb acting skills.

As long as you find the overlapping parts and use this as an opportunity to transform yourself into the character, that will be the most perfect interpretation. "

He also knew that Zhou Jielun's performance foundation was weak, and even if he understood it, he wouldn't know how to proceed.

He broke it open and crushed it into pieces and said: "Takahashi Ryosuke has a calm and calm personality. He is good at observing and analyzing his opponents, so as to find their weaknesses and defeat them.

This is a very superficial and superficial impression, and it is also everyone’s first impression of him. He is cool and cool.

As long as this can be performed, this character will have a foundation to stand on.

If you want to present something more profound, you need to analyze his character's growth trajectory, find out the reasons for his character, and establish a complete logical relationship between the character's behavior.

Then when preparing for each scene, use your understanding of him to analyze what he did in the scene.

Ask yourself why he behaves this way and why he says this.

Use the behavioral logic you summarized, and you will be able to understand how to perform. "

After hearing this, Zhou Jielun felt a sudden enlightenment in his heart and said, "I see, this way I can play this character well."

Chen Shuo glanced at him and said, "Young man, you are too sweet!"

Zhou Jielun heard a black line.

He himself prefers sweets. When Chen Shuo said he was sweet at first, although he was embarrassed, he was still a little happy inside.

It wasn't until he saw that Chen Shuo had a malicious feeling every time he said this, which made him suspicious, that he started to ask questions.

Wait until he learns that in Japanese, the pronunciations of sweet and innocent are very similar.

After Chen Shuo called him sweet, that is to say, he was innocent, he immediately had a physical reaction to the word and felt speechless every time he heard it.

"Damn! Teach me a lesson!" Zhou Jielun said angrily: "I have never handed over to Shu Xiu! Be careful that I write two random songs for you!"

Chen Shuo smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. I will release an EP with your songs then, and then write the composition column in a big way, and we will see who will be embarrassed."

"Can you still be a human being?" Zhou Jielun couldn't help but feel a little crazy and regretful. He had agreed too hastily just now.

Chen Shuo stretched out three fingers and said: "Talent, theory, and practice are the three important elements if you want to accomplish something.

If you can understand the characters well and grasp the key points of the characters, you are considered talented.

And I just told you the theory, and you can understand it.

Now, do you have any practical experience?

In other words, do you think you can put your talents and newly acquired theories to full use? "

Zhou Jielun shook his head obediently. Does he have experience with Mao?

He only had experience shooting MVs before, but when shooting the MV, he didn’t go looking for the camera, but the photographer used the camera to find him.

The only movie she participated in, "Looking for Zhou Jielun", she appeared in the film for less than 5 minutes and had no more than 10 lines.

He does not deny his talent in music, but he also admits that he does not have much talent in acting.

"For the sake of your two songs, I will teach you a fool-like performance method." Chen Shuo pointed out: "For the portrayal of Ryosuke Takahashi, just pretend to be cool and pretend to be cool for the camera.

Don’t think of the performance as a performance, think of it as if you are at a concert, and look for the feeling you get when you sing seriously.

If you can pretend to be cool naturally, then this character will basically not be too dramatic. "

Zhou Jielun was thoughtful after hearing this, and combined with the character of Ryosuke Takahashi and the setting of the script, he couldn't help but nodded.

In the script, Ryosuke Takahashi serves more as a wise commentator, explaining to the audience how powerful Fujiwara Takumi is.

Only at the last moment did he compete with Fujiwara Takumi and show his strength.

At the same time, because of the foils of Keisuke Takahashi, Takeshi Nakazato and others, they can help him create an image of unpredictable strength.

If these two key points can be grasped and the audience has a strong sense of expectation for the finals, then his character will be established.

The two chatted until work started in the afternoon. Chen Shuo went to film, and Zhou Jielun followed what he said to figure out the characters and analyze the script.

In the next few days, Chen Shuo and Liu Dehua will finish filming their scenes in the tofu shop.

On July 8, the two set off to return to the imperial capital to attend the premiere of "House of Flying Daggers".

Before leaving, Chen Shuo took another look at Zhou Jielun's performance and felt that it was already decent.

At least he is very experienced in pretending to be cool.

Just like the last time Chen Shuo went back for a concert, the two arrived in the imperial capital early in the morning and were taken to the hotel to rest by people from Xingpi.

For this premiere, Zhang Weiping invited a lot of people to help out.

Including Li Zongsheng, Chen Huiling, Zhang Xinzhe, Adu, S.H.E., Tong Ange, Pu Shu, Han Hong, Daolang and Women's Twelve Band.

The theme song singer, American soprano Catherine Butler, was also specially invited to sing at the venue.

Of course, as the leading actors, Chen Shuo and others also need to sing on stage.

Two poems by Chen Shuo, "Returning to the Bamboo Sea" and "Love of Fallen Leaves".

Another song is singing "Beauty Song" with Liu Yifei.

In addition to "Beauty Song", Liu Yifei also needs to sing the three title songs "Elf in the Cloud", "Flying in the Sky" and "The Legend of the World".

After Chen Shuo got up after resting for two or three hours, he looked at the time and saw that Liu Yifei's plane was approaching.

I told the staff of Star Picture and drove the car to Liu Yifei's garage to pick her up at the airport.

The time was just right. When he arrived at the airport, the flight arrived.

Looking at Liu Yifei who looked exhausted, Chen Shuo couldn't help but feel a little distressed. He took all the luggage and said, "Let's go home and rest first, and then go to the rehearsal in the afternoon."

Liu Yifei was not in the mood to talk, and she had fallen asleep on the plane, so her mind was still a little unclear.

Chen Shuo didn't say anything more, picked up the person, loaded the luggage into the car and went home directly.

Liu Yifei's home is near Beiti, and it's only two miles away by foot. She can just go directly from home after letting her rest for a while.

When they got home, Liu Yifei and the other three took a shower and went to sleep.

Chen Shuo went to the surrounding market to buy some vegetables, tidied up the kitchen, cooked a pot of porridge, steamed two steamed buns and put them on the pot to warm.

After preparing the dishes, seeing that it was still early, I sat on the sofa and wrote and drew.

He also plans to release his third album in the second half of the year, and now is the time to prepare.

As he was writing, he suddenly heard movement from the bedroom. He looked over and saw Huang Ying walking towards the living room, rubbing her face.

"Sister Ying, you're awake."

Chen Shuo looked at the time and found that it was almost noon. He got up and went to the kitchen to bring her a portion of porridge and steamed buns and said, "You can eat some cushion first, I will cook soon.

After Sissi and her aunt wake up, they can eat. "

Huang Ying was not polite. She took a few sips of porridge to moisten her stomach, then picked up the steamed bun and took a big bite.

Chen Shuo couldn't help but said: "Eat slowly, there will be enough for you."

Looking at her like this, it looked like she hadn't eaten for many days.

However, Huang Ying had no time to speak at all. She just waved her hand to him, took a sip of porridge, pushed down the bun in her mouth, and took another big bite.

During this period, she and Liu Xiaoli took care of Liu Yifei, running around with her and asking questions about everything.

In the end, Liu Yifei was very tired, let alone whether she was tired or not.

She was finally able to take a rest today, but unexpectedly, she got up early again as if out of conditioned reflex.

Just when she was looking for something to eat, Chen Shuo brought her porridge and steamed buns. How could she care about anything else?

As for Chen Shuo being her boss?

I've been busy this week helping you take care of your girlfriend, what's wrong with asking you to get food and drinks?

Seeing that she was concentrating on eating, Chen Shuo didn't ask any more questions and turned around to start cooking.

After eating four steamed buns in a row, drinking a full bowl of porridge, and smelling the aroma of vegetables in the kitchen, Huang Ying reluctantly wiped her mouth with a paper towel.

I touched my belly and prepared to have another meal later.

Chen Shuo's cooking skills are pretty good.
