The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 293 Illusion
"Watermelon, come and get it yourself."

"Teacher Lu, please treat everyone to some watermelon. Come and get it yourself."

"There's also soda, oh, it's ice cold, so cool!"

"Thank you, Teacher Lu."

"..."

While waiting for the aircraft seat to be adjusted, Lu Yuan asked Wu Lang to pass out the fruit drinks prepared in advance.

The money is not much, but it can satisfy the entire crew, so why not do it.

The entertainment industry is an acre of land, whether it is big or small, it is still the same group of people who go round and round, and reputation must be developed slowly. The success of a drama cannot be separated from the hard work of the team behind the scenes.

He pinched a piece of watermelon and took two bites of the red flesh. It tasted good, juicy and fresh.

"Lu um, Xinjie, you are eating. The watermelon is really good. I just finished three petals in one go." Ren Zhengbin ran over sweating profusely, with seeds still stuck to the corners of his mouth.

Lu Yuan pointed at his face and said, "In the past few years, Hengdian has been taking care of their business a lot. They are all old acquaintances."

Ren Zhengbin subconsciously touched the corner of his mouth, patted the seeds off, and gave a thumbs up. He had been in the industry for many years and had been involved in many large and small crews. This was the first time he had a car full of watermelons to share.

"atmosphere."

"It's nothing. I've also run in group performances. It's not easy for everyone in this bad weather."

The two chatted for a while, recalling the difficult years when they first entered the industry. Ren Zhengbin suddenly said seriously: "Teacher Lu, thank you."

"Is there anything I can thank you for?" Upon hearing his name, Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, stood up and threw away the melon rind, wiped his hands, patted his big belly, and joked: "Dabu Dabu , The belly is too big to be true."

Ren Zhengbin laughed. This sentence was accidentally said by Lin Yongjian when several people were chatting about the movie in private. He thought it was quite humorous and planned to add it when filming started.

"To be honest, if it weren't for your suggestion that night, I wouldn't have dared to play the scene just now."

Lu Yuan waved his hand and said: "As I said, in the final analysis, it is all for the sake of the show. There are no small actors, only small roles. There are no shortage of plays, and the supporting roles can also be outstanding. You know Wu Gang, who plays Lu Qiaoshan in "Latent" .”

"I know, I've watched his scenes no less than ten times."

"Latent" has long since aired. In addition to the two leading actors, the performances of several supporting actors are equally remarkable and have been unanimously recognized by the audience, including the smiling tiger Lu Qiaoshan played by Wu Gang.

Lu Yuandao: "You may not know, but he also appeared in "Mei Lanfang", not many. This person specially invited a teacher from the Peking Opera Theater to come to his home to give lectures. He went to the People's Art Theater almost three times a week. In the library, he learned about the history of Peking Opera and the background of the times. He looked over and over at those pictorials from the Republic of China period, trying to figure out the postures and eyes of the characters in the photos."

"As a result, guess what, he was forced to stand out from Zhang Ziyi, Wang Xueqi and other big names, and became the most outstanding supporting role in "Mei Lanfang"."

Ren Zhengbin clenched his fist silently as he listened, his face full of yearning.

Lu Yuan glanced at him. In terms of the overall level of actors, "Before Dawn" was one step higher than "Latent".

Compared with Dongyang Qingyu Film and Television, Hualubaina's budget is much more generous. Most of the supporting actors in "Before Dawn" are professional actors, and many of them come from the three major universities.

But in terms of the selection of several important supporting characters, "Insidious" is much better.

The performances by Lin Yongjian and Zhang Xilin were flawless and very standard, with no faults to be found.But sometimes the inability to find fault is actually a mistake in itself, and the performance is too rigid and too dogmatic.

A textbook performance has the advantage of being a textbook. The lower limit is high and there won't be any ridiculous moments, but it also means that you can't expect anything too exciting.

Compared with Wu Gang and Zu Feng, the two division chiefs Zhang Xilin and Ren Zhengbin are completely inferior in terms of acting skills.

It can be said that 80.00% of the ratings of "Before Dawn" rest on his shoulders alone.

This is also the reason why he encouraged Ren Zhengbin and Zhang Xilin to "let go" to act. If you have good ideas, execute them without scruples and try your best to add color to the drama.

In fact, this also has some of Lu Yuan's own problems. As a top-tier actor on the small screen, and it is a spy-war theme, his salary is too high, which means that the crew has greater limitations in selecting other actors.

He alone earns tens of millions of dollars in salary. How do other front-line actors feel? They are all front-line actors, and their investment is only so much. No one will be willing to be a green leaf for him.

Just as he was talking, Zhang Xilin and Lin Yongjian also came over. Lin Yongjian sat down beside him by his collar and said, "You two are really good at picking places."

Zhang Xilin still held the watermelon in his hand, took a few bites randomly, wiped his mouth, and said, "The director was praising you just now."

"Why are you praising me?" Lu Yuan was curious.

"The director said that your sense of relaxation was so good. He initially thought the moment you laughed just now was a laugh, but then he saw the playback and it was amazing." Zhang Xilin's face was full of compliments.

Lu Yuan pursed his lips, thought for a while, and said: "Relaxation is actually the most basic thing, the most basic thing in performance. There is nothing worthy of praise."

Lin Yongjian pulled down his glasses, rolled his eyes upward, and asked: "Isn't the most important thing about performing a performance relaxing?"

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, recalling the contents of the "Film Art Dictionary" he reviewed with Liu Shishi some time ago, and said: "Based on my understanding of acting, I think this is a basic skill, and relaxation cannot be regarded as the highest level of performance. Pursue."

"Of course, this is a matter of personal opinion. What I say may not necessarily be right."

Lin Yongjian continued to ask: "Oh, what do you think is the most important?"

Lu Yuandao: "It is control. Relaxation is important. A good actor should have passion and imagination, but to make the performance charming, he must master the sense of proportion and level. Reason and control are indispensable. When an actor creates a character image, Emotion cannot be separated from the intervention of reason, and reason cannot be separated from the penetration of emotion."

The so-called passion means having great creative passion for the role you play, arousing a strong creative desire and impulse.

Lin Yongjian glanced at him in surprise and said: "So what you are saying is that actors cannot be controlled by passion, but must master passion, control it, stimulate it, and push it to the necessary aspects required by the logic of the plot and the character of the characters in the play. Go, that is, an emotional outburst.”

"Yes, just like driving a car, an actor is like a driver who has to control his own behavior, emotions and passion."

"Did you figure this out yourself?"

"That's not true. I read a little in my free time."

Lin Yongjian frowned and said, "You gave me the illusion that I might miss this Feitian Award again."

Lu Yuan: "."
