Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 139 Silly boy, how could I say you are stupid?

"Please come in."

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Yifei pushed the door open and walked in.

She was still dressed as Yu Ji, but she looked a little dazed, as if she had suffered some kind of blow.

Zhou Mo looked at Liu Yifei with a strange expression.

"Xixi, you...did your mother scold you for eating secretly again?"

Ever since he became acquainted with Liu Yifei, Zhou Mo knew that this silly girl was actually very greedy. She liked to stuff food into her mouth whenever she had nothing to do, especially sweets.

In her words, "Eating something gives me a sense of security."

Zhou Mo didn't know why Liu Yifei had this habit.

Logically speaking, given her family background, she should not have experienced hunger as a child.

Liu Yifei doesn't know why she has this habit.

But she just couldn't control herself.

Usually, the calories in one or two candies are more than the calories in a dish.

Therefore, Liu Xiaoli strictly prevents her daughter from eating sweets.

Although she was not professional in the field of agent, she was very clear about one thing——

As my daughter is an actress, her physical appearance should be more demanding if her acting skills are not good enough.

Eating sweets frequently can cause great damage to the body shape of an actor, especially a female actor.

Therefore, whenever Liu Yifei was caught eating secretly, she would be scolded by her mother.

Liu Yifei glanced at Zhou Mo and shook her head.

Zhou Mo was happy to see her like this.

"So what happened to you?"

"Director Zhou, how did you do it... Why did Brother Xiaoming's acting suddenly improve so much?"

Before this, after being reminded by Zhou Mo, she had already tried her best to improve her estimate of Huang Xiaoming's acting skills in her mind.

But the acting skills displayed by Huang Xiaoming completely exceeded her imagination.

With just one glance, one could tell that it was a level she would never be able to reach in her lifetime.

In particular, she also watched "The Ordinary Man" some time ago and saw that Huang Xiaoming's acting skills in it were still the same.

How come I improved so much overnight after returning to the crew of "Chu and Han".

Liu Yifei pondered and thought, and felt that there was only one truth.

Zhou Mo.

The guidance from director Zhou Mo is the fundamental reason for Huang Xiaoming's improvement in acting skills.

So, she came here to study today.

Zhou Mo looked at Liu Yifei's wise eyes and said with a smile, "Xixi, you don't really think Xiaoming's acting is bad, do you?"

"I don't think Brother Xiaoming's acting is bad, it's just, it's just..."

Liu Yifei didn't finish her words.

But the attitude is already very clear.

Huang Xiaoming’s acting skills are definitely not bad, but they shouldn’t be this good.

Zhou Mo shook his head: "Xixi, the leader is the legendary 50-50. You think his acting skills are at the same level as yours because he is taking care of you. If you replace you with Duan Yihong or other actors with good acting skills, you will find that Xiaoming's acting skills are also at the same level as them.

And didn’t you see that, when Xiaoming was acting opposite Teacher Chen, although he was suppressed by Xiaoxiao, that was more because in the plot Liu Bang completely defeated Zhang Han on the battlefield, which made Zhang Han appear weaker in momentum.

I remember I told you that Xiaoming's talent is automatically tied to the acting skills of the person with the highest combat power in the entire crew. Let me ask you, who has the best acting skills in our crew?"

"...Teacher Chen Daoming."

"Yep!"

Only at this moment did Liu Yifei truly give up.

It turns out they are all big guys.

She's the only one who's really good.

"It seems my idea of ​​improving my acting skills has been dashed."

Liu Yifei felt a little desperate.

After so many years of debut, she truly has the heart of a good actor and has been honing her acting skills.

The problem is that after so many years of polishing, apart from the fans who are willing to close their eyes and say that his acting skills have improved, no one else has acknowledged it at all.

Seeing Huang Xiaoming being able to show his style on the set at this moment, Liu Yifei was so envious.

Seeing this, Zhou Mo suddenly spoke.

"Actually, it's not impossible."

Liu Yifei's eyes lit up.

Yes, isn’t this person in front of me nicknamed “the most photogenic actress”?

He must have a solution.

"Director Zhou, can you improve my talent?"

"That's definitely not possible. Talent is something you have from birth. Xixi, you should know best what your talent is."

Liu Yifei:......

Tired heart.

I want to find my mother.

Zhou Mo added: "But I have a way to improve my acting skills."

"what?"

"Xixi, don't forget that it was me who suggested that Xiaoming run for Pifu."

Liu Yifei slammed her palm and said, "Right, Director Zhou, you said that you wanted Xiaoming to star in "Pifu" so that he could feel the huge regret and sadness, and then he could directly bring it into the role. Director Zhou, are you going to let me take this path too?"

"Ruzi can be taught."

Zhou Mo laughed.

Liu Yifei was a little confused after receiving the message: "But what kind of emotions should I experience to play Yu Ji well?" Zhou Mo shook his head: "I didn't ask you to improve your acting skills in Yu Ji. Yu Ji is not difficult. You just need to show your loyalty to love and your strong character. The difficulty in the early stage is not great. You can actually lean a little towards Wang Yuyan.

Apart from that, the scene in "Chu and Han" that will be really difficult for you is the one where the enemies are besieged on all sides. The emotional outburst between Yu Ji and Xiang Yu when they bid farewell to each other, including reluctance, attachment, and heartache, should be quite difficult for you... But in fact, there is a solution. If it doesn't work, just ask your mother to take away all the candies you have hidden, and then shoot a few more times and it should be almost done.

What I mean by bringing in emotional experience is actually another way.”

"What?" Liu Yifei was curious.

“It’s an urban movie.”

Zhou Mo spread his hands: "Xixi, after all, the easiest way to get emotions into your daily life is definitely through daily life, so as long as there is a movie based on some common things in your daily life, then wouldn't it be easy for you to improve your acting skills?"

Liu Yifei was confused by Zhou Mo's trick: "Director Zhou, you are right."

Then she became confused again: "But the question is, what things in my daily life can be made into a movie?"

"Your star career!"

Zhou Mo slammed the table and said, "Xixi, think about it. Since your debut in 02, you have experienced so many ups and downs along the way, and have competed with so many female stars. During these years of competition, how did you feel and how did you react? I believe that only you know it best in the world. Once you film these things, I believe you will be able to show the best of your acting skills to the audience."

Liu Yifei:......

She was still fantasizing along Zhou Mo's line of thought, but the next second Zhou Mo made a 180-degree turn.

She almost sprained her waist.

"Director Zhou, please don't mention this proposal again. My mother will definitely not agree to it."

"Xixi, even though your mother doesn't agree, you can come here secretly to sign the contract without letting her know."

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes: "Director Zhou, do you think I'm stupid?"

Zhou Mo looked at her kindly: "Silly child, I don't allow you to say that about yourself. You are just a little naive, how can you be stupid?"

Little guy, I still don’t understand you?

If you didn't have any ideas of your own, why would you bring your mother up?
Zhou Mo estimated that if he could persuade Liu Yifei three or four more times, "A Loving Family" could be put on the agenda.

After thinking for such a long time, he found that his previous ideas were still a bit too simple.

There are actually many scripts that can cause female stars to quarrel with each other.

From dormitory groups, to celebrities competing for endorsements, to harem battles.

All can be performed.

Zhou Mo felt deeply impressed by his own excellence.

In order to improve the acting skills of these young actresses and make them serve as his tools, he has put a lot of effort into it.

……

The filming is still going on.

After defeating Zhang Han, Han Xin successfully gained the respect of all the soldiers in Liu Bang's army.

Liu Bang gave Han Xin considerable autonomy, allowing him to have ample opportunities for development.

Liu Bang has always been a rather generous monarch.

Especially in terms of granting official positions, the difference between Liu Bang and Xiang Yu is as big as that between an adult and a child.

Xiang Yu was an extremely contradictory person.

He could eat and live with the soldiers, and would cry when he saw soldiers sick.

However, whenever his soldiers made contributions and hoped to be promoted, Xiang Yu would become a different person.

He would hold the token that should be given to the meritorious person in his hand, and fumble with it repeatedly, unwilling to give it up, until the last one, when he would reluctantly put it in the hand of the meritorious person.

In comparison, Liu Bang seemed much more direct.

Whenever a soldier made a contribution and hoped to receive a reward from Liu Bang, Liu Bang would appear very excited.

"Those who have made contributions will be rewarded!"

This was the longest sentence Liu Bang ever said in front of his soldiers.

All of the above made Han Xin more certain of his original decision.

He firmly believed that Liu Bang was the person who could help him with revenge.

Han Xin looked at the boxes of gold, silver and treasures in front of him.

This was a gift given to him by Liu Bang as a reward.

Han Xin didn't care about these things; he was more concerned about revenge.

He casually gave these treasures as rewards to the guard who had always been by his side and was the only one who knew his identity.

He is also his retainer.

Meng Fan.

Han Xin looked at the excitement in Meng Fan's eyes and smiled.

"Like these treasures?"

Meng Fan nodded honestly.

He liked these treasures, but what he admired more was the young master.

"It would be great if one day I could be as powerful as the young master."

Han Xin raised his eyebrows.

"You want to be like me?"

Meng Fan nodded.

"Young Master once said that a real man should accomplish something, so my dream is to be a great general like you and lead the army!"

Han Xin didn't say anything, but his squinted eyes showed that he was thinking about something.

……

After pacifying the Three Qins, Han Xin did not stop.

Thanks to Liu Bang's decentralization and support, Han Xin quickly achieved a series of great achievements in just one year, including capturing the King of Wei, defeating Zhao and Dai, and persuading the State of Yan to surrender.

Finally, as Liu Bang's power gradually grew.

Xiang Yu gradually felt tremendous pressure.

He sent his great general, Long Ju, with an army of 200,000 men, to engage in a decisive battle with Han Xin at Weishui.
