China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 587: Fairy Sister’s Opponent and Acting Bottleneck [-in-]

"Don't bring the kids into this!"

Hearing the mention of children on the phone, Liu Yifei's eyes instantly turned red and she let out a hysterical scolding.

In the camera, her lips trembled with excitement, and her cell phone was tightly grasped in her hand. Her eyes were red, like a female animal protecting her cubs.

But then, her eyes began to flicker again, and after a moment of impulse, she finally felt a little uneasy. After all, the person on the other end of the phone held a secret that she had never told anyone about.

But when she noticed that a young mother opposite her, who was about the same age as her, was feeding her daughter ice cream bite by bite with a small spoon, and the little girl pursed her lips and raised a sweet smile to her mother, the other His hand subconsciously touched his lower abdomen, and his eyes became firm.

"I won't do it anymore."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a second, and then there was another burst of laughter.

"Are you going to quit? Ha" Ding Yongdai laughed loudly, as if he had heard a big joke.

"The person who agreed to monitor your husband on the condition of releasing your father was just a young lady from a restaurant. We gave you a chance to start a new life. Shouldn't you also think about repaying the favor?"

Ding Yongdai half-closed his eyes and spoke word by word into the phone.

At this moment, his whole body was already in a very full state. He really didn't expect that he and Liu Yifei would be able to coordinate to such an extent that he and Liu Yifei would be able to cooperate in the first official shooting scene, which made him almost reach his full potential. With all his strength, the whole person's mood also rose.

It was a rare feeling that he had met his opponent.

Very enjoyable~
Ding Yongdai did not come from an acting background, he was a late bloomer. He had a bumpy road for half his life. His career gradually improved when he reached middle age. His acting skills were finally recognized, and he gradually gained some fame in the industry. As everyone knows He may play a good guy, but he is really unlucky.

Therefore, he has always been in a situation where he is not popular in dramas, and he has missed out on awards and blockbuster dramas many times.

"Bai Baoshan" ten years ago is his most classic role so far. He brought to life the versatility and complexity of "Bai Baoshan", making the audience familiar with him for the first time, and even because of his role as "Bai Baoshan" It was so realistic that when he met the police when he went out, the police's first reaction was to draw a gun and regard him as a robbery and murderer.

I thought my career would turn around, but I didn't expect that when the show was on the air, my superiors suddenly asked me to shut it down completely. The reason is that this is a vicious case and it is not appropriate to make too much publicity about the criminals' methods of committing crimes.

In this way, he missed an opportunity to become famous.

In 2004, he starred in the TV series "Winter Solstice" which was also a popular drama. Originally, many TV stations had arranged to broadcast it at the same time during prime time, but who knew that the relevant departments had issued new regulations: the drama involved in the case could not appear in the prime time of the TV station.

Although this time he was not targeted at him alone, it was still inevitable that he would suffer.

He once again lost the chance to turn around. At this point, Ding Yongdai also looked away. People say that you know your destiny at fifty. You are already this age, so let nature take its course.

He no longer pays attention to whether he can become popular, but quietly accepts more movies and takes as many good ones as possible. As for where his career will ultimately go, everything depends on God's arrangements.

But unexpectedly, fate played tricks on people, and he, who was supposed to let nature take its course, suddenly received the book "New World".

The fastest-rising and best-developed film and television company in the industry, the youngest talented director in domestic entertainment, an excellent script as good as "Infernal Affairs" and a group of talented actors whose famous acting skills are online.

He realized that this might be his last chance to turn around.

The heart that refused to be ordinary beat again.

He was determined to exert all his strength to perform every scene well, not only to give himself an explanation for most of his life, but also to repay Sun Yi for his kindness.

Yes, the grace of knowing someone.

Perhaps to outsiders, this word makes people feel a little absurd. Sun Yi is almost thirty years younger than him, how can it be said to be a gift of acquaintance, but that is what Ding Yongdai thought.

With Sun Yi's current fame and status, many celebrities in the industry would be willing to star in his movies. From any point of view, it is not his turn.

Therefore, he was grateful to Sun Yi for giving him this opportunity, which gave him the motivation to fight for the last time after wasting half his life.

In fact, Sun Yi has selfish motives in this matter. Of course, the first principle is that Ding Yongdai is suitable for the role of Section Chief Jiang. The second reason is that he wants him to use his many years of acting experience to Motivate Liu Yifei.

Previously on the set of "Into the Dust", Sun Yi saw Liu Yifei's desire to improve her acting skills, but his wife's current acting level is no longer inferior to him, and what he can provide is only theoretical. Guidance and an analytical understanding of specific roles stemming from a directorial instinct.

As for how to act and how to express emotions more deeply, Sun Yi can no longer help.

Of course, these are also helpful to Liu Yifei, but they cannot break her current performance bottleneck.

Obviously, Liu Yifei's acting skills have fallen into a hurdle after being polished in so many movies, and she has been unable to get over it.

In fact, the current level is already very good, even enough to sustain her for a lifetime.

You can play roles suitable for your age group and perform them well. If you accumulate experience step by step, with Sun Yi's help, there is a high probability that you can win a major award in the female protagonist category when you are in your thirties.

However, Xiao Nizi is restless.

She originally had the ideal of being an actress in her heart, but now, in comparison with Sun Yi's achievements, she has higher demands on herself.

She doesn't want to improve step by step like this, she wants to break through herself.

Teacher Gong Li's previous inspiration to her only pointed out the direction for her, but to truly open this bottleneck, other methods were needed.

Before the filming of this scene started, Sun Yi had privately approached Ding Yongdai, hoping that he could use his many years of acting experience to maximize Liu Yifei's potential.

Ding Yongdai understood that Sun Yi wanted him to help improve Liu Yifei's acting skills.

What about acting?

In Ding Yongdai's understanding, genius may reach a very high level, but even if the talent is mediocre, as long as you are willing to work hard, practice more and accumulate more, you can reach a level that may not be as dazzling as that of a genius. To the point of leaving a name in film and television, but it will definitely not be too bad.

He has this kind of average talent, but through time and hard work, he has reached where he is today.

You know, for a young actor, the best way to improve is to be in the scene, feel it, experience it, and master every scene.

If you want to be immersed in the scene, those with talent can take on the role themselves, just like Sun Yi directly stepped into the character Wei Yihang, while those with average talent can only polish it repeatedly, or have an experienced person. The actor helped her take on the role through opposite roles.

Obviously, Sun Yi asked him to use the latter method.

In fact, most actors don't like this method, because it not only requires superb acting skills, but also must always accommodate the rhythm of the opponent actor.

If your acting skills are not proficient enough, your rhythm will be messed up before you can adapt. Otherwise, just to accommodate the other party, the effect of your own performance will be greatly reduced.

For many famous actors.

Not relatives, not friends, why?

You know, the emotional investment in a scene also has a great impact on the actors themselves. But Ding Yongdai is different. First of all, his many years of acting experience allow him to have this strength, especially he is also an actor who is very good at mobilizing emotions.

In "The Human World", the many father-son scenes between Lei Datou and him were all infected by his emotions, resulting in such wonderful performances.

As for Ding Yongdai, Sun Yi's request was something he hoped from the bottom of his heart to help.

But the key to the problem lies in whether Liu Yifei can do it and whether she can feel it.

Don't let him follow the other person's rhythm and give out corresponding emotions, but the other person can't receive it. That's not like talking about chickens and ducks.

This was what he was worried about at first, but then he gradually let go of this worry while playing with the little girl.

He knew about this girl Liu Yifei.

Very spiritual.

She has become very popular in recent years, and has many classic screen images, but to be honest, I have never heard of her winning any valuable awards, and she has not seen any major breakthroughs in her acting skills.

Of course, she is already considered a leader in her age group.

Through previous conversations during the show, he could feel that this girl was different from the children he had met in other crews whose performances were superficial.

I was very serious and discussed with myself the emotional collision between the two characters over and over again, and polished my lines over and over again.

It's rare to have such a beautiful face and be willing to study hard, so he is a promising actor.

He felt that he should be able to fulfill Sun Yi's request and help the little girl enter the role through emotions.

But when the actual shooting took place, he realized that he had underestimated this little girl.

In the scene just now, the two of them couldn't see each other's faces, they couldn't see each other's expressions, and there was no feedback. The emotions of the two characters were perfectly displayed through the conversation on the mobile phone.

Just for this reason, he was pleasantly surprised.

He has seen too many actors who treat the so-called lines purely as a kind of speech, or in other words, as a way of speaking.

But in fact, how to pronounce the lines is very important to the actor's level.

The upper limit of your line skills can be infinitely high. For some actors, you don’t need to read subtitles or even look at their faces. Just listening to him speak his lines is a pleasure.

Talking is easy.

It is very rare to be able to convey emotions through words, and it is still the kind of emotions that gradually increase in intensity.

I didn't expect this girl to perform so well in real shooting. After feeling Liu Yifei's line skills, Ding Yongdai also wanted to see how her performance level was in real shooting.

He has decided that he will go all out for a while and no longer accommodate her rhythm. Instead, he will act as a completely equal opponent and give him the feedback he deserves to see if this girl can survive under his pressure. , what surprises it brings.

In the camera, Ding Yongdai took the phone from his ear without hanging up, just put it in his hand, then turned his head and looked through the gap in the crowd to observe Liu Yifei sitting alone on the bench.

Her chest rose and fell slightly, she seemed a little excited, her eyes were red, but she was firm enough.

Ding Yongdai twitched the corners of his mouth in a secretive manner, stood up and walked towards Liu Yifei.

This scene should actually be shot in two parts, first the shot of the two talking on the phone, and then the shot modified by Sun Yi of the two having direct contact.

But at the scene, Sun Yi could see that the emotions of the two of them were brewing just right, so he didn't shout "Ka", and just let the two of them continue to act with this energy, and directly shot a long shot, which was really not possible Can also be edited later.

On the set, Liu Yifei heard Section Chief Jiang mention her father and her once unbearable identity on the phone again. It was like a scar was being uncovered. She became emotional and scolded the phone repeatedly:

"My father is dead. The person I should repay now is Zicheng. It has nothing to do with you. Don't worry, I will repay him well throughout my life."

She hated her betrayal of her husband and was angry at Section Chief Jiang's threat to her.

But what she responded to was a long silence.

It didn't last long, but for her now, every second seemed like a year.

Her breathing began to speed up, and huge uneasiness enveloped her head again, completely unaware that Section Chief Jiang had already walked to her side.

Ding Yongdai stared at Liu Yifei indifferently, looking at the young mother in her prime before him. There was no special look in his eyes, neither anger nor pity. If he insisted on saying that there was some emotion, it was There was a hint of mockery in his eyes.

A mockery of being unable to control one's own destiny and being a pawn.

"A lifetime? Ha, hehehehe."

He is obviously a high-ranking member of the Hong Kong Island Police who fights crime, but at this moment, he is making people hate him to the core.

Din Yongdai achieves this effect with just a burst of playful and heartless laughter.

The laughter is not exaggerated at all, on the contrary, it is a bit subtle, but the more it is like this, the more impressive it is.

In the previous scene, due to grouping reasons, most of the crew were on Liu Yifei's side, so he could only hear his voice. But now, everyone can finally see his performance.

The so-called layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

Everyone present has been dealing with movies and actors for countless years, and they all have a strong balance in their hearts.

There is nothing superfluous about Ding Yongdai's performance. Everything seems to be just right. It can be said to be a return to nature.

From the pace and demeanor, to the changes in the eyes, to the laughter at this moment, everything seems so ordinary, but in fact every emotion is progressing layer by layer, climbing to the peak little by little, reaching the peak. His fifty-two years of life turned into the most unpretentious performance.

What do you think of the profession of actor?

The great road leads to simplicity, and different paths lead to the same destination.

The so-called performance, the most essential kind of regression, actually lies in making everyone forget everything about you and only remember your role at the moment, nothing more.

Ding Yongdai is like this now. Compared with Liu Yifei, who is still at the stage of "what he acts like", the role he interprets now is completely "what he acts like."

At this moment, standing in front of everyone is Section Chief Jiang who does everything he can.
