Full-time actor

Chapter 47 [47] What monster?

January 2002, 3, afternoon.

Qingdao Naval Base, on top of the warship borrowed by the crew of "Towards a Republic".

Chen Yu is filming his last location scene.

This is a performance scene without lines. Asahiko Juro, played by Chen Yu, reads a letter written by his lover Junko to her. There is also a pendant in it that represents longing and blessing.

The content of the letter contained an extremely explosive narration - For the victory of the empire, Mr. Asahiko did not get Junko's virginity, so you will make up for it by taking the virginity of ten or thirty Korean and Chinese girls?
  The whole process consists of reciting narration lines that were later recorded by Ya Shao, but when Chen Yu was acting, it was a silent performance.

So the difficulty is still there.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for location director Yate to shoot this scene in the last scene. In fact, he had no idea how long it would take Chen Yu to finish filming.

Three days ago, Chen Yu officially signed an artist contract with China Audio-Visual and rushed here without stopping.

Five years, 5% split, auditions for several roles, and the role of Xu Zhu in "Dragon Movie" are the supplementary agreement to his contract.

Five years was the maximum period requested by Chen Yu. Ji Qiannan pretended to be embarrassed at the time, but in fact Chen Yu had already seen through it.

She was now standing not far from the filming studio deck, watching Chen Yu perform his last scene.

wow wow~~~
  The sea breeze was blowing on the deck. Chen Yu, who had a dark face, leaned under the mast of the warship and sat with his body slightly bent.

In his hand, he held something wrapped in red silk.

Of course it was Junko who sent it to him.

But Chen Yu did not choose to open it immediately. Instead, he stared longingly, his hands trembling slightly, and his knuckles suddenly turned white the moment they touched the edge.

That's a sign of a hard grip.

1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds... It seems very silent, but in fact, Chen Yu's expression is increasing in complex and changeable emotions every second.

The changes in micro-expressions can make people instantly feel the feeling of longing that is about to overflow.

Sometimes the elderly at home find a very familiar object, such as the belongings of their dead son. If you happen to see it from the side, you will clearly perceive that the expression of the old man has not changed much, but the sadness and The emotional contagion of longing makes you feel more and more stuck in your heart.

This is what Chen Yu is like now.

He obviously didn't do anything, but everyone present felt the strong delusion.

He missed his lover.

"..."

Assistant director Yate, who sat in front of the monitor and watched Chen Yu's performance carefully without blinking, was a little numb from the stimulation that day, despite being overwhelmed by Chen Yu's efficiency and acting skills, as well as his impressive skills, foreign languages, etc.

But after seeing this performance, his pupils still involuntarily contracted.

My heart was severely shocked again.

This kid didn't get much use out of his performances in the morning, right?

What Chen Yu shot in the morning was actually mainly group scenes. He trained hard with a group of Japanese soldiers, and there were scenes where he refused to eat steamed buns. In fact, the requirements for acting skills were not very high.

Now, Chen Yu's solo scene without lines is his best performance.

"..."

Chen Yu was still groping for the red silk in his hand. Just when everyone thought that the emotion of longing was in place, Chen Yu suddenly stopped his hands, raised his head slightly, and glanced at the sky.

At that moment, Yate admitted that he was completely struck by the complex and moving look in Chen Yu's head.

Damn it, how could this kid act like that?

How could he perform that kind of contradictory feeling without crying, but full of longing, wanting to see his lover, but unable to do so, and feeling that his family and country were more important.

At the moment, it was all filled with Chen Yu's eyes.

It's so complex that it resonates.

Yes, everyone watching Chen Yuyan's scene, including Ji Qiannan, felt it.

When actors act, the emotional contagion of their performances can really move people.

Such is the emotional appeal of the performance.

For a good actor, even if he smokes a cigarette, you can feel that he is lonely; in fact, what matters is not the cigarette, but the actor's mood.

Emotions are emitted by subtle changes in body parts and micro-expressions.

If you are not a professional, you will not realize how difficult this kind of performance is.

This requires control of the body to a level that can be controlled like an arm and a finger; crying when you want, laughing when you want, these are just the basics, and you can even master it with a twitch of your eyelids.

"It's too scary, this kid!"

"He's only 18 years old!"

Ji Qiannan clenched her fingers. She had been shocked by Chen Yu's various talents no less than ten times that day.

Originally, she just wanted to see Chen Yu's true level out of her responsibilities as an artist who had just signed a contract, so she followed him with her face licked.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yu had already shot the last scene of the outdoor scenes that he thought would take two days to shoot by 2 p.m.

It's just a matter of passing the professional level in filming, but Ji Qiannan can still accept it.

After all, this is the student that Teacher Chang Li praised!

But, what kind of operation do you know so much about? !
  Japanese, martial arts, literary... This made Ji Qiannan feel ignorant.

She never thought that what Chen Yu had revealed to him before was just the tip of the iceberg; on the set, he seemed to be truly alive.

For an 18-year-old art candidate, this is too exaggerated!
  Ji Qiannan didn't know if she had become unlucky after carrying it for so many years, or if God couldn't bear it and sent her some kindness.

In short, Ji Qiannan felt that she was making a fortune. Based on what Chen Yu has shown now, if he doesn't become famous in the future, it's not his problem, but her poor performance as an agent.

This kind of person, as long as he is given a chance, can soar directly into the sky!
  "No, I have to contact you right away!"

"You can't let him off the hook!"

Ji Qiannan thought of several dramas that Chen Yu had talked about when he signed the contract. Ji Qiannan felt that it was time to use all the contacts she had accumulated over the years to win a few audition spots for him.

She may not be able to find the male and female protagonists, and many of them are often pre-determined; but for auditions for other roles, relatively speaking, many agencies still need to give face.

Even if they actually already have a candidate, they will still be given the opportunity to audition.

This is what it means not to sin.

What if you need help from the other party next time?

It is said in this circle that it is nothing more than you helping me and I helping you, and maybe the other person will be used at some point; so it is rare for this industry to quarrel with others and not give them a chance, but it is not unheard of.

Thinking of this, Ji Qiannan immediately took out her mobile phone and asked.

On the other hand, Chen Yu's filming is not over yet.

After he looked up at the sky, he lowered his head and slowly opened the things Junko sent him.

Slowly unraveling layer by layer.

A letter, a carefully crafted pendant.

Chen Yu opened the letter with trembling fingers. This letter was written entirely in Japanese; of course, it was also written by Chen Yu.

At that time, director Yate wanted to find a dramatist who could write well in Japanese, so Chen Yu reached out and signaled.

Acted as a palindrome substitute.

Looking at the letter, Chen Yu's micro-expression deepened.

If it were broadcast at this time, it would actually be accompanied by lines from Asako's monologue reading a letter, and sad background sounds.

Chen Yu's mind naturally entered it.

But others apparently don't know that.

So Chen Yu in front of him was reading the letter carefully, his expression began to undergo various subtle changes according to the content of the letter, his eyelashes, eyelids... It was as if he could hear Asako's monologue.

Follow the rhythm of reading the lines in the letter and respond accordingly.

"Quick, quick, aim the lens of camera No. 3!"

"I want a close-up!"

Yate watched the whole process, and it was only then that he realized, shouldn't he focus on Chen Yu's expression?

Such a good performance, wouldn't it be better to shoot straight in the face?

The photographer immediately controlled the crane arm and pointed the camera directly at Chen Yu.

Until Chen Yu finally hung the pendant that Junzi gave him seriously around his neck, and walked out of the deck sadly.

"Crack-"

Yate shook his fist violently, and his whole body was so excited: "Pass!"

"Hahaha, that's so cool!"

"This fucking scene was so cool!"

"What kind of acting skills, I almost forgot to shout..."

Yate laughed and looked at Chen Yu, who was still standing on the filming set. He felt that the actor introduced by his sister was really incredibly strong!

She didn't take a fancy to it, but she took a fancy to it.

What kind of monster is he? He knows so much and his acting skills are so outrageous.

Another fucking pass?

The two-day scene was completed in most of the day?

If all actors were like this, why would I have to endure the hardship of being blown away by the wind for nine months on the beach?
  "Damn it, the filming is almost over, please do this!"

Yate is depressed.

If he had met Chen Yu half a year ago, he would have definitely let him play an important role, which would save him from being so tired during the filming.

"Xiao Chen, it's finished!"

"Are you in a hurry to leave?"

"Don't worry, please help me some more..."

Yate shamelessly walked towards Chen Yu; many people couldn't bear to look at such an unscrupulous director.

This dignified CCTV director is actually looking for an actor now?
  But everyone here has to admit that Chen Yu has this strength!

An actor's most powerful ability is not how famous he is, but his ability to conquer everyone as soon as he joins the crew.

The key is to be humble.

Chen Yu undoubtedly did it!
  He used his abilities to conquer the location crew bit by bit.

From the director to the extras.
