Chapter 73 Acting Cheats (Part [-])
TVB veteran Qin Pei ignored Zhou Xingchi, pretending that he did not exist, turned to Chen Xiaotang and said: "Since I ate your wonton noodles, I have to give you some good advice. In fact, it is about acting skills. On the other hand, you must keep in mind two words—forget me!"

"What is selflessness?" Chen Xiaotang asked puzzled.

Next to him, Zhou Xingchi pricked up his ears shamelessly to eavesdrop, to tease, to eavesdrop without breaking the law.

Qin Pei smiled and said: "The so-called self-forgetfulness means that when performing, you have to forget what you are performing, your role, the lines you memorized by rote, the director, and everything around you!"

Zhou Xingchi pursed his lips: "Tch, why are you still acting? You forgot everything, you're playing an idiot!"

Qin Pei ignored Zhou Xingchi's interruption, and still smiled and said to Chen Xiaotang: "On the contrary, when you forget everything, you are like a blank sheet of paper, and you can naturally interpret the role you want to perform! This is in In terms of art, it’s called———Back to Basics!”

"Tick, I thought I was practicing some kind of peerless magic skill, and I'm still returning to the basics? Is there a return to the light and the oil is exhausted?!" Zhou Xingchi taunted again.

Chen Xiaotang gave him a hard look, and Zhou Xingchi shut up.

Qin Pei chuckled and said, "Believe it or not! In fact, there are only two aspects of performance. On the one hand, there are more diversified body language, which is used too much in stage plays, like Shakespeare's "Hamley" "Special" requires that the body language of the characters should be able to reflect the inner struggle and torment of the characters; on the other hand, it is a relatively restrained inner monologue, which requires a higher level and requires actors to be able to express themselves through simple eyes, and tone of voice. You can refer to the old movie "Taxi Driver" starring Robert De Niro."

Chen Xiaotang listened intently, Zhou Xingchi looked indifferent, but in fact he was sighing in his heart, what this old man said was really good, much better than our training class teacher.

Then Qin Pei continued: "To put it more bluntly, there are only two words for acting skills, one is 'hidden' and the other is 'exposed'. Hidden is more advanced, and you need to understand it slowly in the performance. As for the exposed , you can learn from my old partner Zeng Jiang, his Huang Yaoshi in this play is a good example!"

Zengjiang?Yaoshi Huang?Chen Xiaotang couldn't help being startled.

Immediately he remembered that the 83rd edition of "Shooting the Condors" in his previous life was indeed the case. Zengjiang's Huang Yaoshi was indeed a kind of "dew", and his performance was accurate and vivid.Zengjiang's Huang Yaoshi, as long as he comes out, he has an aura that shocks the audience and looks at the world. He is thin, thin, arrogant, arrogant, and engraved the word "evil" with sharp edges and corners.Zengjiang's Huang Yaoshi is a supporting role, and what he has mastered best is that he will not steal the limelight from the protagonist, but can also be very vivid. Huang Yaoshi's evil, ruthless, domineering, moody, everything is captured His interpretation is vivid and straightforward, so almost every time he comes out, the audience will sweat, because God knows what this person will do in the next second.

Jin Yong once said that "Shooting the Condors" is a novel in which the characters are more "distinct" than "complex" and "rich", but Zeng Jiang accurately and wonderfully conveys a sharp-edged "evil" character. From this point of view, Chen Xiaotang felt that Huang Yaoshi was successful.

In the previous life, Chen Xiaotang once saw someone criticize Zengjiang's Huang Yaoshi for only "bluffing" by "flashing his beard and staring", and he was almost on the same level as Uncle Tielin.

Thinking about it now, Zengjiang's Huang Yaoshi's performance method is indeed "exposed", but it is not "virtual".Although Zeng Jiang himself is not handsome, he is very temperamental, very individual, and he is proud in his bones.

Zeng Jiang was born into a family of performers, and had a movie star sister Lin Cui (later married to Wang Yu), but he was not interested in acting when he was young.When he was young, he graduated from the Department of Architecture of the University of Berkeley in the United States. After returning to Hong Kong, he worked as an architect for three years. After earning enough money and "capital", he turned to the projection field of vision and "tossed".Among the Cantonese film niche, he had the highest academic qualifications, and he was fluent in both Chinese, English and Cantonese.And his own talent, this kind of confidence to advance and retreat freely, and the arrogance of his personality will often be naturally revealed in the roles he interprets, so he is unique in playing a gentle and gentle hero.

And an actor's own temperament is very important to the success or failure of a character, so even if it is the same TVB, even if the plot is more faithful to the original than the 83 version, Luo Yingjun's Dongxie in the 94 version is terrible.Because he doesn't have Zengjiang's "look", that confidence, that coquettishness and that "evilness" that he takes for granted but doesn't take it seriously.Zengjiang's east evil lies in his "strength of character", so he can bear the evil, while Luo Yingjun's is reluctance, which is considered "evil" at best anyway.Therefore, Zengjiang's Huang Yaoshi, in Chen Xiaotang's view, is a "classic", with both form and spirit, irreplaceable.

At this time, as a performer, the gold medal green leaf, Qin Pei's admiration for Zengjiang is not artificial, and it does not mean that warriors envy literati and despise them. It is a kind of respect and recognition for performing arts.

Looking at Qin Pei in front of him, Chen Xiaotang suddenly thought of a sentence: It is easy to be a green leaf once, but it is rare to be a green leaf for a lifetime!

In fact, apart from the most dazzling superstars, supporting the prosperity of the golden age of Xiangjiang movies, there are also golden supporting actors like Qin Pei, Zeng Jiang, Wu Mengda and so on.Without them, the brilliant starry sky would be much dimmer!
……

"So, if you want to improve your acting skills, in addition to communicating more with us old guys, the most fundamental way is to act more, accumulate more experience, and get used to trying. No matter what role it is, you must say to yourself, acting Good for him!" Qin Pei looked at Chen Xiaotang who was distracted and said forcefully.

Chen Xiaotang came to his senses, and just in time to ask about other acting experiences, suddenly someone shouted outside: "Uncle Pei, it's your turn for the next scene!"

So Qin Pei stood up with a smile, patted his clothes and said, "Ah Tang, don't worry, acting is a homework, the more urgent you are, the more you can't digest it, you are a talented and talented actor, I believe that one day You must be able to achieve the realm you expect! Come on, young man!" After finishing speaking, he was about to leave.

"Hey old man, what about me, why do you look down on me so much?" Zhou Xingchi yelled from behind.

Qin Pei turned around and said with a smile: "If you don't get rid of your cheap talk, you will have to suffer in seven or eight years!" After saying this, he turned and went out.

"I choose, old man, what are you talking about? Seven or eight years? What am I going to do? Just watch, I will be the protagonist soon!" Zhou Xingchi said unconvinced.

It's a pity that Qin Pei didn't even look at him.

Zhou Xingchi felt that he was being ignored. If you were a big name, it would be okay to say it, but you are also an old supporting role. What right do you have to say that about me? !

Before he could move, Chen Xiaotang grabbed him and shouted: "Ah Xing, don't make trouble for me anymore!"

After leaving the lounge, Zhou Xingchi saw that Chen Xiaotang's complexion was not good, so he said, "A Tang, are you in a bad mood?"

"One thing, I think you are too disappointing!"

"Why am I not up to date?"

"You don't even know how to respect people!"

"Why don't I understand? It's the old man who doesn't understand!"

"You have to call him Uncle Pei!"

"Rely on the old and sell the old!"

Chen Xiaotang: "...?!!"

After a long while, he sighed: "You can't teach a child!"

"What kind of child is not a child? You think I can't understand ancient Chinese, and you are cursing me!" Zhou Xingchi said smartly.

Chen Xiaotang: "I'm not scolding you, I'm scolding myself, I really regret it, why did I bring you here!"

Zhou Xingchi scratched his head, "I can't help it for a while! Who told him that I would have to live for seven or eight years before I can succeed!"

Chen Xiaotang: "Is this worth your offense?"

Zhou Xingchi: "What else? Wait until he slaps me twice?"

Chen Xiaotang was about to die of anger, looked up to the sky and sighed, "I'm depressed!"

Seeing his displeased look, Zhou Xingchi gently touched his arm and said, "A Tang, I know you are doing it for my own good, but... well, don't be angry!"

"I'm not angry!" Chen Xiaotang said seriously.

"It doesn't look like it~!" Zhou Xingchi glanced at him. "Hey, let me tell you, don't be so stingy, okay? Being too angry can hurt your health. For a beautiful man like you, you should pay more attention to the influence. If you get angry too much, you will easily get hemorrhoids!"

"Choose, you have hemorrhoids!" Chen Xiaotang couldn't help laughing, this guy is too damaged, so he can say such things.

"Look, don't laugh, let me tell you, Ah Tang, you have a big heart, and you can fly an aircraft carrier in your stomach---otherwise, if you need help from me, Ah Xing, if you need help with anything, just say it, and I will never shy away from it! "

Chen Xiaotang stroked his chin, and pondered: "Well... are you free tomorrow?"

"Yes! --- Tell me, what do you want me to do? Do you want to fill me with wine, or do you want to support me with food?!"

"That's not necessary, I haven't reached the point where I'm full of wine and food—it's just that our tea restaurant will be renovated tomorrow, and we need a strong and dedicated coolie. You are very suitable!"

"No way," Zhou Xingchi said with a bitter face, "I'm afraid I can't play this 'role' well. I've been afraid of rough work since I was a child!"

Chen Xiaotang immediately straightened his face, "Who said just now that you have to be punished? I choose, and I want to deny it so soon?!"

"No, Ah Tang, is there a more gentle and humane way, such as treating guests to dinner, I can afford it now!" Zhou Xingchi said in a roundabout way.

"Needless to say, there is no need to discuss!" Chen Xiaotang ignored him and started walking.

Zhou Xingchi suddenly chased after him, and said, "Then can I make a phone call?"

Chen Xiaotang was taken aback, "What are you doing?"

"To Liang Chaowei and Liu Dehua, there is a saying: Good brothers, have the same blessings and share the same difficulties!"

Chen Xiaotang is dizzy.This guy, when he dies, he wants to hold his back!
