The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1072 After the rain, the sky is clear
"Director! Jesus Christ!"

"I almost vomited my lunch."

"I can't laugh, but I can't stop either. I think I must be crazy."

Complaints, protests, laughter, the whole audience was in turmoil——

There was a great uproar.

The extras in the public theater were stunned and completely confused, not understanding what was happening:
One second the entire crew was facing a great enemy, repeating NGs over and over again, and the filming was not making any progress; the next second the entire crew was going crazy as if they had lost their minds. This was a hydrogen leak, and everyone's brain was filled with hydrogen, and their sanity was out of control?

His eyes were blank.

But to be honest, even though I don’t understand why, the overall atmosphere of this shoot was definitely different, and I felt a sense of relief.

So, that's a good thing, right?
All eyes turned to the stage and focused on Kristen.

At this moment, Kristen slumped in the chair, her shoulders and limbs drooped in relaxation, her eyes fixed on the audience and she chuckled.

But without pausing, Christen walked through the crowd and looked towards the monitor again.

"Director, are you sure?"

When it comes to performance, the actors themselves have the final say.

Christen had to admit that the performance just now was full of accidents, stuck, broken plots, distractions, and out-of-character moments, and it was not professional at all; but the whole performance was surprisingly smooth, moving freely between reality and fantasy.

Half performance and half reality.

It is difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.

As a result, Kristen had no time to hesitate or get upset. She was completely led by the impact of reality, but she let her emotions run wild within the performance framework, and the whole performance was completed in one go.

The details flow smoothly and naturally.

While waiting for the performances to be over, I felt a sense of release after a thorough catharsis, and the heavy pressure on my shoulders disappeared silently.

It has been a long time since Kristen had such a unique performance experience.

Chaos is still chaos, but joy is still joy.

Actually... I enjoyed it a little bit.

However, this is how the actors themselves feel—

Perhaps, self-satisfaction is simply an illusion.

Or maybe the actor's definition of excellence doesn't meet the director's requirements.

Ultimately, it all comes down to the director.

Sam met Kristen's gaze and gave her a thumbs-up again.

“Everything is perfect.”

Sam didn't know how Kristen did it, she was transformed in an instant, the entire context and details of the performance were particularly comfortable and smooth.

But he had a bold guess that maybe it had something to do with Anson.

Sam raised his voice. "Maybe you should thank your co-star."

Kristen laughed heartily, "I think so, too."

Suddenly, Christen stood up with both hands supporting the handrails, walked to the front of the stage, threw herself on the ground, and stretched out her right hand -

Snapped!
Kristen and Anson finish with a high five.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Welcome back."

Rustling, rustling.

The people around could no longer control themselves and began to get agitated one after another, one after another looking towards Kristen and Anson.

"Anson...Anson Anson..."

The whispering couldn't stop.

Not only the extras, but other crew members also finally noticed it -

Anson Wood, the absolute leading man of the film, appeared on the set again. The dull and listless atmosphere of the crew suddenly became agitated, and the excitement and jubilation could no longer be suppressed, and in a blink of an eye, they broke free from their restraints and erupted in an all-out eruption.

Word of mouth spread the good news:

Anson Returns!

You don't need to be very sensitive or careful to feel the obvious changes in the air and the crowd in the entire theater. The emotions are gradually mobilized, the haze is swept away, and the bright colors are spread all over.

Even if you see it with your own eyes, it's still hard to believe. It's all just because of Anson.

No wonder when Sony Columbia was making small moves behind the scenes, the entire crew stood on Anson's side. Originally, they thought that it was because Anson was injured that they refused to betray Anson out of sympathy and moral sense, but now it seems that things are obviously not that simple.

Reed-Diamond was a little nervous.

He is the other actor who just stood on the stage and performed opposite Kristen, playing the male actor who co-starred with Mary Jane in the movie.

The entire filming was a torture. Apart from the extras, Reed was the one who suffered the most. However, as a minor character in the supporting cast, Reed had no say and could only try his best to cooperate throughout the process and digest everything on his own.

Then, without warning, the shoot went off without a hitch.

That's it?

Reed was also confused and stood on the stage in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.

While waiting for Reed to see Anson, the 37-year-old actor still didn't know how to react and stood there, scratching his head.

Actually, Reed wanted to go up and say hello, but he was worried that he was not qualified. After all, he didn't see any other extras coming up to him to get close to him. Anson was the darling of the entire crew, so who was he?

Taking a deep breath, Reed encouraged himself——

Anson is also an actor, Anson is also a human being. There is no need to scare himself. As a fellow actor, what's wrong with him stepping forward and saying hello?
Reed stumbled forward, not noticing his shaky hands and feet.

There was no way, he was worrying about how he should start the greeting.

When Reed joined the crew, Anson was in the hospital and the two had no interaction at all, so should he welcome Anson back first, or should he introduce himself first?
While hesitating, he moved slowly in front of Anson.

When he was looking for an opportunity to cut in, he found that Anson had looked over first.

Reed: "Hey."

He felt like a fool.

Anson didn't seem to mind. "Hey, Reed, I'm sorry for interrupting your performance just now. I hope I didn't cause any trouble to you."

Reed: ...

transfixed.

Kristen noticed, "Reed?"

Reed finally came back to his senses and stared at Anson intently, "Do you know me?"

Anson nodded. "Of course. 'Springtime of Sentimental Law,' Detective Mike Kellerman."

Reed's throat was grabbed, and he couldn't believe his ears.

No one may believe it, but Reed has been in Hollywood for a full decade and has even more experience than Kristen. He is mainly active on TV screens and plays regular roles in TV series.

However, for a full ten years, Reed still did not have a breakthrough in his career. Even when he appeared in movies, he was often just a small supporting role with only a few lines, such as in "Spider-Man 2".

This is Hollywood. Apart from the 1% of glamour that people see, the difficulties and challenges faced by the other 99% are far beyond imagination.

To be precise, Reed is no different from the extras around him. Acting is just a job, a nine-to-five office job. The so-called stardom, attention, and focus have nothing to do with him.

Does Reed want success?
Even in my wildest dreams.

His requirements are not high. He does not even expect the general public to know his name or recognize his face. He just hopes that every time he enters the crew, he does not have to introduce himself again and again in front of his fellow actors.

One person, even one person, someone can remember his name——

After all, he has been active on TV screens for ten years.

Today, my dream finally came true, but I never expected it to come from Anson.

Reed was hit immediately.
