From janitor to actor

Chapter 255
In a blink of an eye, the Spring Festival holiday is over.

It's time for Ren Shuai to join the group.

He promised Chi Yi to support him in his debut film before, but now when it's time for the appointment, Ren Shuai shows up on the set on time.

Chi Yi had introduced it to Ren Shuai back then, saying that it was an urban fantasy love movie, telling the story of the hero and heroine becoming young again.

Ren Shuai carefully read the script and the outline of the story before joining the group.

This play tells about a retired couple. Because they spend all day together, the more they look at each other, the more they don't like each other. They feel that if they are not old, they will never live with each other like this.

One day, the two quarreled over a trivial matter. It happened that there was a vision in the sky.

Subsequently, the two ran away from home.

The heroine doesn't want to help her son look after her granddaughter anymore, and the hero doesn't want to be always controlled at home. He yearns for the single life in the past.

On the first night the two lived alone, a change happened.

They wake up in their respective beds, only to find that they have become young, with a second youth.

The story unfolds from this point. The male and female protagonists start to try the beautiful life in their fantasy respectively, and encounter a series of ridiculous things in the middle, only to find that they still miss the original life even more, and finally the two walk together again.

Ren Shuai plays the retired male lead in this film, and he only needs to play a small part of the plot, and the rest are played by the young male and female protagonists.

After Ren Shuai finished styling, he walked out of the dressing room.

In the dressing room opposite him is the actor Fang Shufen who plays his wife, a capable veteran actor who has won the Best Supporting Actress.

For his debut film, Chi Yi has put in so much effort and mobilized all his connections, just to present a movie that meets his expectations.

Fang Shufen is a veteran actor who has been active in the film market. She takes acting very seriously. If she sees anything in the crew that does not meet her performance standards, she will point it out.

Especially the actors who play opposite her, once they don't do what she wants, she will definitely be adjusted until she is satisfied.

Most of the actors who played against Fang Shufen received her guidance, especially the young actors. Although they benefited a lot from the guidance, the process of the play can only be said to be very tortured.

It was once recorded that the average number of reshoots among the actors who played with Fang Shufen was as high as 28 times.

Ren Shuai didn't know the situation of his rival actor at all, he just wanted to do his best and earn a salary.

In this film, the role played by Ren Shuai is an office worker who has no special hobbies after retirement, and spends time sitting at home watching short videos all day long.

When he was young, he was the most famous school girl in the school, strong in both sports and sports, the main force of the basketball team and the champion of the singing competition. He was the ideal boyfriend candidate for many seniors.

However, after graduation, he lost these auras. In order to make money to buy a house and raise children, etc., he worked hard every day from morning to night, and had no time to develop his hobbies.

Due to the high pressure of work and life, and neglect of body management, he gradually gained weight and became a middle-aged greasy man.

After retiring, he became an idle old man. He neither likes to go to the park to exercise, nor does he like to do housework.

Spending all day lounging on the bed watching short videos, and buying some useless things in the online live broadcast room.

The heroine played by Fang Shufen was also a school beauty when she was young, and many seniors and juniors regarded her as a goddess.

There were even rich second generations and big bosses who coveted her beauty and promised to marry her with a lot of money, but the heroine still chose true love and walked with the hero.

After she got married, she became a dancer, but because she had a baby out of shape, she had to go to a training school to become a dance teacher.

Later, because of various chores at home, she gradually turned into an ordinary middle-aged woman.

After finally retiring, I wanted to travel and relax, but was held back because I had to babysit my son.

Every day when she wakes up, she has to take care of three meals for the whole family, do housework and watch the children. These things make her temper worse and worse, and she gradually becomes a yellow-faced woman who likes to teach others.

The male and female protagonists are not satisfied with their life in this life. They always feel that there are many regrets that cannot be made up, so they have the idea of ​​living a new life.

The first scene that Ren Shuai will shoot today is arguing with his wife.

This kind of passionate scene that requires emotional mobilization is a test of the explosive power of the actors. Many people can't burst out after acting a few times because they consume too much energy.

Arguing is a tiring thing.

When Chi Yi saw Ren Shuai, he greeted him enthusiastically.

"Mr. Li, thank you for supporting my work."

"You're welcome."

Ren Shuai smiled and waved his hands, thinking that he should thank you for giving me the opportunity to make money.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Chi Yi entered the director mode and dispatched all parties to prepare.

At this time, Fang Shufen also came to the set.

She looked up at Ren Shuai, but didn't communicate with him, as if she had entered into a quarrel ahead of time.

Many actors will prepare their emotions in advance when acting in such passionate scenes, so that they can enter the scene smoothly after filming starts.

Ren Shuai was not dissatisfied with this.

But Fang Shufen was a little dissatisfied with Ren Shuai.

She thought that in order to perform this scene well, she began to brew emotions and accumulate anger while putting on makeup.

But the opponent actor looked indifferent, and even smiled and nodded to himself, which is simply destroying the mood.

When Fang Shufen accepted the show, she heard that the opponent actor was called Li Laifu. Unfortunately, she had never heard of this name after working in the entertainment industry all her life. She thought that the opponent actor was probably an ordinary actor with mediocre acting skills.

She wanted to refuse, but the introducer said that Ren Shuai is a veteran actor who is still a teacher of Meiying. The reason why he is not famous is because he has not taken many roles before.

After hearing this, Fang Shufen agreed to take over the film.

Later, she inquired about Ren Shuai's information, and found that although he was a teacher of Meiying, he was actually only a teacher of the dubbing department, and had nothing to do with acting at all.

And the only experience in acting is a costume film like "Nine Lives and Nine Worlds".

Fang Shufen watched it again when she was free and found that Ren Shuai's performance in it was so-so. It can only be said that the performance is not broken, but it can't be said how brilliant it is.

But Fang Shufen thought that since she agreed to the invitation, she couldn't go back on it, and there were only a few scenes in total. If Ren Shuai couldn't act well, she could help make adjustments, as long as the other party had a correct attitude.

But looking at it now, this Ren Shuai was still playful and smiling before he acted in a passionate scene, how could he perform well after turning it on.

It was a waste of her affection.
