China Entertainment Times 1999

Chapter 303 Tang Yan: My Cinderella dream is shattered! (Please subscribe!)

After many days of on-site inspection, we compared the preferential policies provided by various places.

Chen Hong finally set the filming location in Jincheng.

The architecture here is uniquely beautiful, the location is very close to the capital, and there are mountains and rivers, which meets the filming crew's location requirements.

The most important thing is that the government's support is very strong.

"White Night" involves a lot of professional knowledge in medicine, law and other aspects.

The local area is willing to send professionals to join the group for guidance.

In addition, the police and SWAT teams will also assist the crew in filming.

As long as it's within the laws and regulations, everything the crew needs can be greenlit.

It would be strange for Chen Hong not to agree to such a generous offer.

"I get tan easily when I tan."

In every girl's heart, there is a dream of a prince and princess.

Rather than a wild disco girl with healthy wheat-colored skin.

She firmly believed that everything was guided by God.

The sweet dream was shattered, so Tang Yan could only go to class honestly and wait for the opportunity to study in the future.

I packed my things and took a few assistants to Jincheng by car.

Traditional activities like eating and drinking can help eliminate barriers and better integrate into the crew.

Tang Yan was very uncomfortable with the huge gap from heaven to earth.

For example, Duan Yihong, who came from China National Theater, Yan Danchen, who came from Beijing Film Academy, and producer Chen Hong, are the pillars of the theater students.

Compared with others, Tang Yan, the heroine of this drama, felt a little disappointed.

"Is your skin tanned, or is it just dark due to the weather?"

All actors have to take makeup photos.

That night, he invited the entire crew to dinner in the hotel banquet hall.

Among more than a dozen competitors, he chose her with the worst acting skills and turned her from Cinderella into the most beautiful princess.

The crew and creators are all from the studio, but the actors come from all over the world.

Fortunately, the crew has many of their senior brothers and sisters.

If Lin Xuan knew what Tang Yan was thinking, he would definitely say something to her:
You should read less romance novels. There are so many coincidences in real life, let alone a domineering president who only revolves around you.

Except for Lin Xuan and Duan Yihong, the remaining actors have to go to class in batches, especially the eight newcomers.

Zhou Shutong should be a rookie policewoman with fair skin, short hair, and a fresh and clean look.

…………

The only time we talked alone was to ask her to wear sunscreen and concealer.

Tang Yan's skin care time is too short, and it seems that there is no difference after the follow-up group.

I thought that after joining the group, the love story of Cinderella and the prince would continue to be written, but I didn’t expect...

No, Lin Xuan thought her skin was too dark and asked her to stay out of the sun.

Teachers praised her, classmates flattered her, and even media reporters praised her.

At the end of March, the crew will start filming soon.

With these senior brothers and sisters on the crew, they feel much closer and can integrate in faster.

Since becoming a "second-generation star girl", she has lived a life of being surrounded by stars in school.

Do you think Lin Xuan cares about her body?

However, Tang Yan was in too deep. In addition, she had a bit of a love brain and liked to think wildly when she had nothing to do.

This audition was the beginning of their fate.

In Tang Yan's dream, Lin Xuan is her prince.

According to the old rules, the first thing after the crew gathers is to hold a script reading meeting.

After the filming location was determined, the crew booked a nearby hotel and notified all the actors to gather at the hotel.

The title of "Xuan Girl" is very useful in school, but it is worthless on the set.

Lin Xuan's holiday life ends here.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xuan didn't say a few words to her at all.

At the same time, Lin Xuan hired professional acting teachers to join the team and teach the actors based on the content of the script.

Many of them were filming for the first time and were curious about the life of the crew, but at the same time they were a little nervous.

Lin Xuan looked at Tang Yan with some confusion.

And all of this was brought to her by Lin Xuan.

Tang Yan said embarrassedly.

She obviously has the face of a royal lady, but when she opens her mouth, she acts like a doormat and looks silly and sweet.

This casting was really successful, Tang Yan's character is exactly the same as Zhou Shutong's.

Lin Xuan asked the makeup artist to prepare a bottle of makeup cream.

"Here you go, go back to your room and apply makeup cream all over your body."

"Oh, thank you, Director Lin."

Tang Yan reached out and took it, turned around and returned to the room.

Ten minutes later, when she appeared in front of Lin Xuan again, her whole body turned three degrees white.

How can there be so many natural, fair-skinned and beautiful beauty stars in the industry?

Ninety-nine out of a hundred people use makeup cream, and they apply it from head to toe.

Lin Xuan looked up and down, nodded and said: "Yes, this is like a police academy intern. Before, he was just like an outdoor athlete."

Tang Yan lowered her head and said nothing.

Tanning has been popular recently, but she didn't have to spend the money. The melanin multiplied as quickly as a virus.

Does Lin Xuan like fair-skinned girls?
Tang Yan thought about taking the time to go to the bookstore.

Buy some books and find out what you can use and what foods you can eat to whiten your skin.

"My hair needs to be cut a little shorter, about here, with a few bangs on my forehead..."

She sat on the chair, Lin Xuan held her head and communicated with the makeup artist.

The quality of makeup directly determines the success or failure of the character.

Therefore, before taking the final makeup photos, each actor had to go through his hands.

"Duan Yihong's style doesn't need to be drastically changed. Just keep it as it is now. Cut his hair a little shorter to look more capable."

"Zeng Li's makeup should be rich and her hair should be permed into slightly curls. She should look charming and seductive."

"The essentials of Yan Danchen's makeup are that she is a pregnant woman and cannot use cosmetics. She can only use a simple concealer."

When it was Lin Xuan's turn, he said: "My face is too young, so I need to make my makeup look older and a little darker."

The makeup artist nodded: "Director Lin, how old do you want to be?"

Lin Xuan pointed at Duan Yihong: "I painted until I was about the same age as him."

In the play, the two have worked together for more than ten years, and in terms of age, they are at least thirty years old.

Lin Xuan is not old enough, and his face looks young, so all modern dramas have to portray him as older.

After putting on makeup and taking makeup photos, the next day is the opening ceremony.

In the morning, everyone burned incense and worshiped God, and Lin Xuan gave red envelopes to everyone in the crew.

A media meeting was held at noon, and reporters asked Lin Xuan questions, but the topic always revolved around the eight newcomers.

"It's been almost a week since the actors joined the cast, and everyone has gotten along pretty well. I can only say that my vision for casting was right, and all eight of them performed very well..."

In front of the media, Lin Xuan praised these eight people.

But the actual situation is completely different.

Tang Yan and others were reprimanded several times on the set.

I can’t memorize my lines, I’m not in the right state of performance, and I even have to teach basic stances.

Lin Xuan couldn't help but wonder, what did these people learn in school?
Still, the actor industry requires the most experience.

No matter how well you learn in school, you still can't show it on the set.

…………

The media conference is over.

In the afternoon, it was the first scene after starting the filming.

Looking for a good sign in the first scene, Lin Xuan decided to take action himself.

There are a total of 5 shots in this scene, all of which are conversations between Guan Hongyu and Guan Hongfeng in the room.

Lin Xuan didn't NG once and just passed in one try.

The onlookers around him were stunned.

Many directors shoot very slowly.

In addition to factors such as the role and location, the actor's performance is the most important thing.

If actors often forget their words, laugh out loud, or make mistakes during filming, then no matter how great the director is, the filming speed will not increase.

The most amazing thing about Lin Xuan is that he can enter the scene in a second.

Don’t forget the words, don’t laugh out loud, and don’t make mistakes, this can greatly increase the shooting speed.

The scene was filmed in twenty minutes, and the onlookers were astonished.

Lin Xuan set a good example for everyone, and subsequent performances were based on this standard. It was still early, so she didn't end the work early, but continued filming Tang Yan's scenes.

The same scene, played by different people, feels different.

Lin Xuan's was as smooth as silk, and Tang Yan's was as if the gears had forgotten to be lubricated.

"Okay, I have something to do."

Lin Xuan scratched his head helplessly.

The heroine I chose, I will keep filming even if I get into trouble.

"The rest of them called it a day and went back to the hotel, leaving a small camera for me."

The crew began to dismantle things and finish work, while Tang Yan stood there awkwardly.

After everyone left, Lin Xuan took the script and sat on the chair, while Tang Yan stood beside him obediently.

"Look, this is how this scene should be played..."

Lin Xuan's small class started again, using real scripts as examples to guide Tang Yan.

After a scene was finished, he stood up and accompanied Tang Yan in the scene.

Then the two watched the video playback, and Lin Xuan pointed out what was wrong.

Just like this, the cycle starts over and over again.

Under his endless torture, Tang Yan gradually found her feelings.

The last few items are already passable.

Unfortunately, she realized it too late and still only filmed one scene throughout the afternoon.

By the time the two of them finished work and returned to the hotel, it was already dark outside.

"Director Lin, I'm really troubling you."

"It's okay. As a new actor, it's inevitable to make mistakes."

Hearing this, Tang Yan smiled, revealing two small tiger teeth.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xuan changed the subject: "But it's really rare to be as stupid as you.

Others draw inferences from one instance, or at worst, draw inferences from one instance. You draw inferences from others. "

Tang Yan felt even more embarrassed after saying this.

"I'm sorry, Director Lin. I will go back and continue to work hard. I will not delay the filming progress of the crew."

"Okay, then you have to work hard."

There is a saying that goes well, if you don’t push yourself, you won’t know how much potential you have.

When Tang Yan put aside distracting thoughts and focused on her performance, the speed of progress was visible to the naked eye.

…………

Mid April!

The crew of "White Night" has been filming for almost 20 days.

The team's integration is smoother, and the actors' performances have also improved a lot.

According to the current shooting schedule, even with eight new actors, the crew can still complete the film as scheduled.

Two days ago, Yan Danchen left the crew and returned to Beijing to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination.

In order not to affect her study, Lin Xuan split her role into two parts.

After turning on the camera, take the time to shoot the front part, and then shoot later when it is almost finished.

"White Night" has a lot of scenes that need to be shot at night.

This caused the biological clocks of everyone on the crew to be disrupted.

Sleeping during the day and filming at night became the norm for the crew.

Late at night, the crew took a break.

Lin Xuan was sitting in the Mercedes-Benz RV that had just been delivered, writing something with a notebook in his hand.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a knock on the RV door.

Lin Xuan walked over and opened the door, only to see Zeng Li standing outside the door holding a bag of things.

"There's no scene for you tonight. Why are you coming to the set if you don't go back to sleep?"

"Now I sleep during the day and can't sleep at night."

She held up a thermos bucket as if offering a treasure.

"I have nothing to do, so I made you some late-night snacks. You didn't have time to treat you to dinner before, so this late-night snack can be considered as compensation."

"Thank you, I happen to be hungry."

Lin Xuan took the thermos bucket, which was still warm.

"Come in and sit wherever you like."

"excuse me."

Zeng Li stepped into Lin Xuan's RV for the first time and looked around with interest.

Bed, sofa, desk, bathroom...the RV is small and well-equipped with everything it should have.

It’s great. I will buy one when I make money in the future.

The RV driver wisely opened the door and got out, leaving space for the two of them.

Lin Xuan opened the thermos bucket and placed several small stir-fries inside, all of which were vegetarian.

He suddenly remembered that Zeng Li seemed to have become a vegetarian and wouldn't even eat eggs.

After setting out the bowls and chopsticks, Lin Xuan put a chopstick into his mouth and gave a thumbs up.

"The craftsmanship is good, but it's quite difficult to make delicious vegetables."

Zeng Li sat opposite him and said with a smile: "You just eat like this, aren't you afraid of me poisoning you?"

The dirty tricks in the entertainment industry can only be imagined by you, but no one else can do it.

The incident of Wang Jie being poisoned caused a lot of uproar and there were different opinions.

Some say it was Chef Xie who did it because Wang Jie blocked his path to development.

It is said that the Emperor is plotting against his own artist because Wang Jie has already fallen out with the company.

It is also said that this incident was directed and acted by Wang Jie.

When poisoning the water, one must not only ensure that the person is not poisoned to death, but also ensure that his vocal cords are damaged.

To complete the above requirements, it sounds simple but is difficult to do.

Wang Jie's singing skills are very demanding on his voice, and his songs are very difficult to sing, so it's only a matter of time before his voice breaks.

This matter is so shrouded in mystery that no one can figure out the truth.

"What good will it do you to poison me to death?"

Lin Xuan picked up a piece of green vegetables and threw it into his mouth.

Zeng Li raised her eyebrows: "Maybe I was sent by your enemy."

"It would be a big loss for me to trade a beautiful woman who is rare in a century in a Chinese drama."

Zeng Li covered her mouth and laughed: "What a century-old beauty? Who did you listen to?"

"Your classmate said this during the interview.

As long as you are mentioned, there is almost no one without praise.

Before get out of class ended, there was a large group of students waiting for you to come out below the teaching building. "

Lin Xuan's words reminded her of her campus life a few years ago.

"It's all lies, how can it be so exaggerated. Hu Jing is the girl with the most suitors in our class."

"Oh, who are chasing her?"

"Too many, Dang Hao, Tian Zheng..."

Lin Xuan is also very interested in the gossip of the 96 star class.

Just eating like this and chatting with Zeng Li.

After he finished eating, Zeng Li put away the lunch box and found a rag to wipe the table.

Lin Xuan patted his stomach: "It's delicious. With your skills, you won't be hungry even if you don't have any filming."

"Bah, you are cursing me."

"Obviously I'm complimenting you. By the way, all the dishes you cooked were vegetarian, and you didn't even eat a piece of meat."

"I started to be a vegetarian last year and learned how to make vegetarian dishes."

"Being vegetarian alone is not good for your health."

"After becoming a vegetarian, I feel that my physical condition is much better, and my skin has become much smoother. I used to suffer from acne frequently."

"Vegetarian dishes lack essential amino acids for the human body. If you eat vegetarian food for a long time, you may end up in menopause before the age of forty."

"If you don't get married at the age of forty, you might as well have gone through menopause."

Zeng Li shrugged indifferently.

Since she decided to become a vegetarian, she has made plans for the future.

"If you insist on a vegetarian diet, remember to combine different vegetable types and plant proteins, and add a handful of nuts every day."

Zeng Li smiled and nodded: "Thank you, I understand. I didn't expect Director Lin to be involved in nutrition."

Lin Xuan opened the notebook and said casually: "I can't say that I have extensive knowledge. I just like to read casual books when I have nothing to do."
