Huayu started from the fairy sword

Chapter 332 The play is fake and the love is true, Mengyan's growth!

During the more than a month in the crew of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree", Bai Mengyan sometimes felt very at a loss, a little unable to distinguish the boundary between reality and the movie.

Because no matter in or out of the play, Bai Mengyan and Cao Jun spend the most time together, and they are also the closest.

And Bai Mengyan was acting for the first time, and it was still a love scene.

For Bai Mengyan who has never been in a relationship, in order to play the role well, she only has one way, which is to put her own emotions into the role.

Of course, because Bai Mengyan has never been in a relationship, her performance in front of the camera is very shy and youthful.

Zhang Yimou wanted this effect.

This is also why Zhang Yimou would give up so many female stars and so many female students in art schools, and choose a female student without any acting experience.

In Zhang Yimou's view, female stars use the acting skills that have been refined too many times to act the most primitive simplicity. This difficulty is no less than letting them learn acting again.

Although Bai Mengyan didn't understand acting and filming at all, Lao Mouzi took a fancy to her youthfulness, aura, and unique temperament.

The "Jingqiu" that Zhang Yimou is looking for is not only beautiful, but must be young. Sentiment refers to feeling. Sentiment is unpolished, without the instinct of self-consciousness. This is called youth.

Therefore, among tens of thousands of girls, Zhang Yimou chose the young and shy Bai Mengyan to play the role of Jing Qiu in "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree".

When the filming officially started, Bai Mengyan's "smartness" depended on accidental discovery, for example, if a scene was filmed for eight minutes, he would be able to select eight seconds, and these eight seconds were very smart.

Bai Mengyan asked Zhang Yimou to act in short sections, and even shot a single scene a hundred times, eight days, at least eighty times a day, and shot a hundred times.

But before cutting it out, Bai Mengyan will feel very satisfied, because Ni Lanchen has no instant things, is very agile, and it is the taste that others can't replace.

Ni Lanchen is also very good at giving birth to your "true" performance, such as the kiss scene outside the water, Zhang Yimou's shyness, heartbeat and calm performance are extremely good.

And that was just a display of Ni Lanchen's very original emotions. It is worth mentioning that this kiss scene with Mengyan is the first time you kiss a girl in your life.

After filming that scene, the ignorant Ni Lanchen was stunned when he saw the kissless scene.

It’s true that Zhang Yimou had a secret, and he definitely admired Meng Yan very much, but if you really want to kiss and film a kiss scene, you have no mental preparations at all, especially in front of so few people, because of the boy’s reserve and Shy, naturally want to escape and resist.

Of course, if there is no one else, just you and Mengyan, maybe you will look forward to and yearn for it.

And behind the camera, when the heroine Meng Yan retreated into the state and wanted to hug Zhang Yimou, Zhang Yimou was between the two of them, holding two fingers.

What's boring is that the "Ni Lan" outside the book "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" is young and naive, thinking that two people lying together are husband and wife, so Ni Lanchen, who will take the initiative to advance in the face of the opposite sex , is indeed a very suitable actor for "Cao Jun".

I just want to be an actor, and emotional scenes are a hurdle that must be passed, especially the kissing scene. Zhang Yimou and Meng Yan have been twisting it is also a way, so Ni Lanchen chatted with Zhang Yimou for a long time, and did it for a long time psychological counseling.

"Jingqiu, he wants to relax. The little ones are watching. It's very dangerous. You are filming a movie, and it's real. That's a process he has to go through as an actor..."

Meng Yan was also persuading: "Yes, Jingqiu, the director is wrong. As actors, you have to cross that hurdle. There is a way to avoid it. Each of you is very suspicious..."

Originally, the scene was designed for the eighth child played by Ni Lan to deliberately drown. Zhang Yimou played Cao Jun and thought it was a joke, so he jumped into the water to save me.

Ni Lanchen was so generous that he let go, Bai Mengyan cleared the scene and hid the camera, letting the two of them find their feelings first.

After Bai Mengyan and Mengyan's patient guidance, in front of the cart, Mengyan kissed Ni Lanchen's side face and temples heavily.

At that moment, Zhang Yimou only felt his heart beating faster, his cheeks flushed, his heart relaxed and curious, and his cerebellum went blank, as if there was no current flowing through his body.

Before Meng Yan and Zhang Yimou kissed, Bai Mengyan didn't stop the film as planned in the script, but let the camera continue to roll.

Zhang Yimou, who just finished filming the kiss scene, did not hear the shutdown command, he knew how to end it, he could only avoid making eye contact with Meng Yan, he dared to look Meng Yan in the eyes.

Bai Mengyan still didn't call the card, but let the real embarrassment continue, which just fit the character's psychology.

Not once was it an off-bed scene between Meng Yan and Zhang Yimou.

As soon as Mengyan met Zhang Yimou, Ni Lanchen moved forward in fright, and cried in fright, willing to shoot life and death, which made Mengyan as embarrassed.

Zhang Yimou did not think so much, you feel as if you are joining a serious crew, but a crew from an island country.

Fortunately, director Bai Mengyan thought of a way, and the film "Love in the Hawthorn Tree" was able to continue shooting.

It turned out that in the play, the heroine Lao Ba missed the hero "Ni Lan" too much, and I couldn't help touching the body of "Ni Lan" after I hadn't seen him for a long time.

But when the filming started, the young and ignorant Zhang Yimou was very nervous. As soon as Meng Yan crawled under the bed, you kept moving forward, and you were scared to cry.

The former director Bai Mengyan saw that Zhang Yimou's eyes were swollen from crying, so she caught a butterfly out of it to tease you, and said nice things to coax you: "Jing Qiu is good, he is crying, Xiaojia feels very sorry for him." Little hope, you have to work hard to overcome yourself."

Fortunately, what Ni Lanchen said made Zhang Yimou stop crying, and the filming of that segment was successfully completed.

Before that scene was the same, Mengyan asked Zhang Yimou in private: "Jingqiu, he said something off his mind to Brother Jun, does he generally hate you?"

Zhang Yimou hastily admitted: "Yes or no, you hate him."

Ni Lan then asked: "Why is he so resistant to making intimate scenes with you?"

Zhang Yimou hurriedly explained: "Brother Jun, he misunderstood you, you are resisting to do that kind of scene with him, you are resisting to do that kind of scene with anyone."

Meng Yan continued to ask: "Is that really the case? Why do you feel that he is so relaxed?"

Zhang Yimou could only explain it to Meng Yan, and described the clip just now as your "true color" and added: "You come from a traditional family and have never been in a relationship. Suddenly you want to shoot that kind of scene, how could you be so relaxed! "

Meng Yan thought about it for a while, it seems to be the same, I thought that Zhang Yimou deliberately let himself come to the stage, it seems that he thinks less.

In the end, Ni Lanchen turned on the state, and the tacit understanding of acting with Mengyan became better and better. Bai Mengyan sat in front of the monitor and watched us act, often consciously laughing.

"Ni Lan" lives in this era, the relationship between men and women is cold and forbearing.

At this time, big couples dare not even hold hands, but only dare to sit side by side on the hillside or under a park bench, read books, exchange ideas, share excerpts, or send each other poems they wrote themselves.

Until it was time to say goodbye, the big lovers shook hands and bid farewell, and promised to see each other last time with a smile.

Bai Mengyan has experienced and witnessed this era.
