Chapter 184: January (4/5)

Tangtang's sudden addition made the brothers and sisters lose the idea of continuing to explore.

After all, everyone knows that in the entire "Fruit Marriage Era", the bottom of the acting skills is the frost girl, and then there is sugar candy...

But she's done her best!

And in a lot of plays, just like everyday, so, not bad...

However, compared with her entire crew, she is still a little behind, especially when it comes to filming Tong Jiaqian and her mother, Zhang Kaili always needs to accompany her to the scene before filming can start.

……

At the end of the day, acting is a craft.

There is a difference between skill and skill!

That's why there will be Best Actor, Best Actress...

The best means first.

For the general audience, in fact, the performance of film and television actors is okay, and the actors who can appear on the small screen can basically cry where they should cry and laugh where they should laugh...

Of course, there are also people who can't cry, which is not in place.

For example, the one who played Han Shangyan couldn't cry when he was obviously unable to cry, but he was praised on Weibo - advanced acting!

Pi Qiniang, in fact, is a high-level compliment, you know?

Back to the topic, the audience's movie-watching experience comes to a greater extent from whether the scenes in the film and television and the actors' performances are in line with the various joys and sorrows in the world that you know should be.

If it matches, it means that you are playing the right role!

But if you play it right, and the audience still feels disobedient, that is, you can't match the whole play!

Let's take the most typical example, "Infernal Affairs 3", how did Chen Daoming act?

Actually, it's okay, the role of Shen Cheng is sophisticated and introverted, he must not only have the domineering spirit of a bandit, but also have the righteousness of the police, and also reflect the political meaning of public security under special national conditions.

But it's very mismatched...

People always want to drag him out of the big screen!

Douban's comment is also 'The ghost knows why Chen Daoming came out'...

Nowadays, acting is somewhat misled by the current media, and even somewhat deified.

For the sake of click-through rate, the media always use some words such as "against the sky", "bursting", "extreme", "god-level", "hanging and exploding" and other words to describe acting, which leads to some very strange interpretations of everyone's understanding of acting.

Seeing someone crying, say god acting.

Seeing someone roar and saying explosiveness.

Seeing someone's evolutionary state, he said that the play road was wide.

saw someone reverse gender, saying that there is no one else in this acting.

What else is 'lines that make people's ears pregnant', 'plastic surgery-style acting', 'face-changing acting', 'dedication acting'...

I'm going to drop my mother, these guys are really Nyima can blow!

We evaluate acting skills, just one point: what can make the audience empathize is good acting skills!

It is indeed easier to arouse empathy if the drama is stronger, but that kind of silent static, can't it be good acting?

For example, in "Bright Sword", after Li Yunlong opened fire...

Standing silently in the smoke of gunfire ...

I was stunned.

The deepest grief and reluctance, forbearance and helplessness, and the shock at the moment of firing the cannon were all frozen in his expression as he stood silently.

If you change the general explosive version of acting, you will probably kneel on the ground and cry bitterly...

But if you really want to kneel on the ground, it is difficult for you to feel Li Yunlong's manly grief - Li Yunlong is the head of the regiment, and he carries more feelings for his family and country!

Why did he choose this approach?

It's probably a personal experience!

Mr. Jin Yong has such a passage in the afterword of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer": However, Zhang Sanfeng's grief when he saw Zhang Cuishan kill himself, and Xie Xun's sadness when he heard the news of Zhang Wuji's death, the book is too superficial, and it is not like this in real life. Because I didn't understand it at the time.

This passage was written after Jin Yong's eldest son, Zha Chuanxia, hanged himself in the United States...

A lot of naivety, ignorance and arrogance come from the lack of life experience, in human feelings, in the world, in art, and in life.

This is not shameful or sad, after all, some experiences may be happier if they do not have a lifetime.

But for acting, no experience is equivalent to no life, and no life is really bad for acting!

Liu Tianxian, what do you think?

Forget it, not only Liu Tianxian, in fact, Lu Xiaoran also has such a defect, after becoming famous, his life is more about filming and taking on dramas...

There is very little precipitation of life.

In the long run, my acting skills may stop...

In this regard, his solution is not to take on the drama that he is not sure of...

……

Sister Shuang continued to follow the group, her current identity is a bit like Lu Xiaoran's assistant, Lu Xiaoran got out of the play, she gathered around and talked about her opinions.

The personality has also changed a lot, and many people in the crew have begun to get acquainted.

The little girl Zhang is like a good person, with a respectful attitude, and she has a close relationship with Lu Xiaoran, so everyone is naturally willing to chat with her.

Then she found out that in fact, most well-known actors are quite simple in private, if you respect him, he treats you well...

Especially Cao Binkun, who taught her a lot of acting principles.

"Look, many people say that Xiaoran is a drama bully, do you think he is?"

Frost Girl thought about it carefully, then shook her head...

"When you're in the crew, the other party often asks questions, and when you can't answer, you always feel that the other party is so aggressive. But in fact, it's not that the other party intends to overwhelm you with aura, but that he is really unprepared and not fully prepared for this scene, so there will often be a "lack of confidence" performance, then you think he is a drama bully? He is just more prepared than you!"

Of course, there are also actors or entertainers in the entertainment industry who have a pleasing personality, and there are also young people who are very polite and call every staff member a teacher. But you have to remember that no matter what type of performer you are, you should portray your role well, cooperate with the crew, and live up to the expectations of the director and the audience, which is the professionalism that a mature and professional actor should have!"

"So, as long as the acting skills are good, it doesn't matter what else?"

“… This involves being a human being, if you can do a better job of being a human being in addition to acting, then of course it is better..."

"What if it doesn't work?"

"You can't even be a good person, what kind of drama are you acting?"

Frost Girl nodded again and again...

She feels that after acting in "The Age of Fruit Marriage", she has completed the whole process of being a new person - much more useful than what the university teacher taught!

I'm about to be fooled and lame...

……

When the TV series enters the normal filming process, it is very fast, often more than a dozen pages a day...

After all, everyone's schedule is there.

It's fast into mid-January.

On this day, the filming ended, and a group of people gathered around to discuss "Red Cliff" (below)...

Let's talk about the plot first...

"Red Cliff" (II)... It's nonsense, the last one has Meng Meng standing up, and the next one has Xiao Qiao sending a thousand miles to the hole...

and Sun Shangxiang put the topographical map of Cao Ying on his body, and slowly took off his clothes in front of a bunch of people...

Very entertaining!

The sound of complaining surpassed the previous one, and the box office performance was not very ideal.

Anyway, 'Orange' bought 50,000 movie tickets for "Under the Red Cliff", but it was not sold out in the first week, so it had to be discounted by 20%...

This wave has lost at least 100,000 yuan!

"Red Cliff had a poor North American performance... Audiences in North America really have no responsibility or need to know something about the Far East, and our films should not pursue the so-called overseas box office too much..."

It stands to reason that Wu Baige's "Red Cliff" is completely in accordance with Western aesthetics, but North American audiences just don't buy it!

"Red Cliff" landed in the United States and began to be screened in 2 theaters, the United States usually conducts small-scale screenings of imported foreign films and independent films, or restrictive regional screenings, and judges the popularity of the film through the box office situation to confirm whether to expand the theater line, which is based on market considerations, "Red Cliff" has a single box office of only 6552 US dollars...

Since then, "Red Cliff" has been screened in 42 theaters for 14 weeks, with a single theater of only $167 and a total box office of only $605174 in the United States, which is a miserable figure.

You must know that even "Balzac's Little Tailor" has a box office of $650,000 in North America...

Lao Mouzi's "The City is Full of Golden Armor", the North American box office is as high as 6.56 million US dollars!

The group peaks have a different opinion: "... But "Red Cliff" has done very well in Japan and South Korea!"

That's right, although "Red Cliff" suffered a Waterloo in North America, the global box office hit a new high for Chinese-language films.

Japan, "Red Cliff" is $54.13 million on the first episode, $48.08 million on the next episode, the two episodes in South Korea totaled $22.88 million, and even countries like the United Arab Emirates have a box office of $270,000.

In order to adapt to the distribution of European and American countries, the film was edited into an international version of 2 hours and 28 minutes, and it also achieved a lot of results in the European film market, with a box office of 2.79 million US dollars in France and 1.79 million US dollars in Italy, and almost all other small European countries have introduced distribution, so far, according to incomplete statistics, the total global box office has reached 238 million US dollars.

"But it's not enough to support the cost of $100 million!"

"Then you say, if Wu Yusen had filmed according to serious historical materials, would he have achieved his current results?"
