China Entertainment: Sister, I don’t want to work hard anymore

Chapter 25 The first touch of shadow, challenging the large scale
early morning.

The crew of "The Beginning of Spring" stayed at the hotel.

"morning!"

"morning!"

Chu Hui greeted the crew, got into the dressing room, and looked up to see where Jiang Wenli was already sitting.

"Good morning, Sister Wenli!"

The makeup artist was playing with her cheeks, making sure she couldn't bend her neck. She smiled at him in the mirror and said, "Have you had breakfast?"

"Well, you've eaten. Have you eaten, sister?" Chu Hui said respectfully.

"After eating, did you sleep well last night?" she asked.

"Well, it's good. I'll sleep until dawn." Chu Hui nodded in agreement, then got up and greeted a makeup artist who just came in: "Morning, please excuse me."

Chu Hui's style was very simple. It was so simple that the makeup artist didn't need to put makeup on him. He just tied his hair and combed it. He just stood there and kept praising, "Oh, your long hair style is so beautiful! So chic!"

In contrast, Jiang Wenli's makeup is much more complicated. She not only has to make buck teeth, but also has freckles on her face.

Anyway, it’s just how to fix it no matter how ugly it is.

In addition, Jiang Wenli also gained a full 15 kilograms in two months for the role of Wang Cailing.

It can also be seen from this point that Jiang Wenli is willing to sacrifice her own image for the role and the play. She is definitely a good actor with professional ethics.

Jiang Wenli has been challenging herself in recent years, breaking through conventional standards and playing characters who have to "act ugly", have a bad temper, and have a split personality.

The role of the "old woman" in "The Beginning of Spring" this time will be very different from all the roles she has played in the past.

Although it won't be like "Lin Xiaofeng" in "Chinese Divorce" without makeup, the effect may be more unexpected than without makeup.

Because they had to conform to the characteristics of middle-aged women in small and medium-sized cities in mainland China at that era, they wore relatively unnatural makeup and wore relatively rustic clothes.

"Sister Wen Li, you..." Chu Hui was cooperating with tying his hair when he suddenly asked.

"No, you're too polite." Jiang Wenli smiled.

As soon as she heard the word "you", she felt that she was a generation older than Chu Hui, which made her feel much older than Chu Hui.

Although in fact, she is indeed fourteen or fifteen years older than Chu Hui.

In Chu Hui's opinion, Jiang Wenli's appearance and temperament did not resemble that of a female star, but rather that of a very ordinary woman from a good family.

It may also be for this reason that the couple played by her and Zhang Guoli in "Golden Wedding" can be close to life and resonate with people.

"Ah, that," Chu Hui also smiled, and then asked: "Did you film "Golden Wedding" with the National Teacher?"

"Well, the filming is over, what happened?"

Chu Hui smiled and replied: "No, I am looking forward to your cooperation. It will definitely be another good show."

Jiang Wenli was very happy and couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect that you are quite well-informed. You know what scenes Sister Lian is filming."

Chu Hui actually didn't know, he just asked casually, but he said: "That's right, I am a fan of my sister's movies, how could I not pay attention to it."

I watched Jiang Wenli being shaved off her eyebrows by a makeup artist, adding dark spots on her face, and using shrinkage lotion to create a crater effect on her face.

Seeing this, Chu Hui couldn't help but admired: "Sister Wen Li, the sacrifice you have made for this drama is really too great."

Jiang Wenli said disapprovingly: "It's okay. Actresses all like to look pretty on the screen, and I am no exception. But sometimes, it doesn't matter."

When Jiang Wenli put on the fake buck teeth, she felt very good and felt that she was slowly getting closer to the character.

After a while, Chu Hui fixed his hair and went to change clothes.

He grinned as he looked at the outfit he was wearing, a black leather jacket and black high boots, with the clothes open, looking quite fashionable and avant-garde.

What is this, punk style, or rock style?
The weather was still quite cold, so I wore a military coat outside. Director Gu Changwei had to look at it before he could determine whether the look was acceptable.

Chu Hui, who had nothing to do, was just wandering around in the shed.

After a while, many actors, including Dong Xuan and Zhang Yao, also came to the dressing room one after another. Under the guidance of director Gu Changwei, they began to transform the image of their characters.

Dong Xuan, who plays the role of a rural teacher, had his hair permed into frizzy curls and wore plateau red makeup on his face. The rustic look made this girl who had been dancing since elementary school lose her temperament.

Dong Xuan looked at himself in the mirror and felt like a village girl.

However, looking back at the other actresses in the group, Dong Xuan secretly rejoiced that she was the most beautiful.

Because Jiang Wenli gained weight and turned herself into an ugly girl, young singer Zhang Yao had her head shaved and wore stockings like a bank robber.

Except for Chu Hui, everyone else also added some wrinkles and dark circles under their eyes, but only Dong Xuan looked radiant.

Under the guidance of director Gu Changwei, the actors all finalized their makeup. Gu Changwei felt that Dong Xuan was too slender, so he called Dong Xuan over and said sincerely: "Xiao Dong, girls in the 80s were more rounded. I will give you half a month to try to gain more than 10 pounds." .”

Dong Xuan found it quite strange. He had only lost weight for dramas before and had never gained weight for a role. But he still nodded: "Now that I know the director, I will definitely work hard to gain weight."

That afternoon.

Chu Hui officially welcomed his first scene in the movie "The Beginning of Spring".

Before filming this scene, director Gu Changwei asked Chu Hui to take off all his clothes and pants, leaving only a piece of white cloth, and then wrapped his body with a military coat.

Obviously, this is a meat show, a large-scale show.

"Chu Hui, are you ready?" Gu Changwei asked Chu Hui who was reading the script.

"Ready director!"

Chu Hui took a few deep breaths. He was very excited, damn! I finally made a movie!
You know, this is the first time Chu Hui has made a movie in his two lives, how could he not be excited.

This scene is also Chu Hui's largest scene since his debut, and it is also a big challenge for him.

This is the interior of a dormitory, with beds, tables and chairs, and various paintings on the walls, floor, and cabinets.

Chu Hui took off his military coat and walked to his position shivering.

"Wow!"

Regardless of gender, it was a soft cry.

The lighting at the scene was very dark and cold, illuminating his chest and abdomen.

It's not the kind of eight-pack abs with clear grooves. Chu Hui's muscles are not tough at all, but rather soft.

Especially the lines all over the body, under the cold light, spread out as smoothly as running water, without any sense of awkwardness.

Moreover, under Gu Changwei's special instructions, the waistband of his trousers was pulled down very low, exposing a few, well, let's just say these are threads...

After confirming that there was no problem, Gu Changwei asked Chu Hui to get under the bed and use a fig leaf to cover his key parts.

"All departments prepare!"

"Action!"

The field recorder excitedly hit the board, and the "snap" sound echoed. "

Just hearing a "clang", Chu Hui's head came out from under the bed.

My gay friend Zhou Yu was shocked.

The actor who plays Zhou Yu is called Wu Guohua. He is from the same school as Chu Hui. He graduated from the 96 Central Academy of Drama with a bachelor's degree in acting. He looks a bit silly, has long messy hair, and has a temperament very similar to Huang Bo.

Wu Guohua said in shock: "You scared me to death. What were you doing under the bed?"

"My mother is such a shrew! I was drawing my own body, and she barged in!" Chu Hui said as he got up from the bed.

"Then why don't you lock the door?"

"She had the key to my door. As soon as I heard the door open, I hurriedly got under the bed."

With that said, Chu Hui re-hung a painting on the ground, picked up the brush, looked at himself in the mirror, and started painting.

Wu Guohua was stunned for a moment and asked: "What style are you painting in? Fauvism?"

Chu Hui rolled his eyes at him and said, "What do you know?"

"Card!"

"do it again!"

Chu Hui's first scene in the movie "The Beginning of Spring" had to be performed 4 times before it passed the request of director Gu Changwei.

However, Gu Changwei has a good temper and is very patient. He almost never curses. Even if his acting is not good, he will not get angry and he will teach the actors very seriously.

The young singer Zhang Yao, who was filming for the first time, had no acting experience and didn’t even know how to move. She was the actor with the most NGs in the group.

Fortunately, Gu Changwei has a good temper and is very tolerant to her. If it were another director, he might be kicked out of the crew directly.

It is worth mentioning that Chu Hui only filmed this scene on the first day of "The Beginning of Spring".

This is very different from filming a TV series.

Chu Hui was previously filming on the set of "Struggle", and there were at least seven or eight scenes a day. The first thing he pursued was efficiency, and then quality.

In the film crew of "The Beginning of Spring", the cooperation between the director and the actors is more like slow work and meticulous work, pursuing quality rather than efficiency.
