Genius site address: (Vertex Chinese)., the fastest update! No ads!
What is a secret "audition"? That is, pretending to be officially starting filming, selecting a few more important or acting scenes for the actors to perform, but in fact Zhang Liang is observing the performance of the actors.
In fact, the focus of this "audition" is none other than Liu Dehua!
Liu Dehua's acting skills are naturally self-evident, this king has dominated the entertainment industry for more than 30 years, even a novice should be honed his extraordinary acting skills, but many times his appearance characteristics are also a kind of "acting skills".
Liu Dehua has been in the entertainment industry for more than 30 years and has played countless roles, but which role is not a glamorous existence? Although Liu Dehua has been seeking a breakthrough, Zhang Liang felt from the previous script selection that Liu Dehua actually did not leave his idol baggage!
In this regard, Liu Tianwang in that parallel world is much better than Liu Dehua, especially the peasant father played in "Orphaned", which simply subverted the image of Liu Tianwang in everyone's minds, and even when the film was filmed, pedestrians on the street did not recognize that this dirty person was actually a generation of heavenly king Liu Tianwang!
Although the film "Orphaned" is far inferior to "Infernal Affairs" in terms of awards, and it is not as good as "Sister Peach", even the subversive Liu Tianwang only won the Best Actor nomination at the Academy Awards and did not win the award in the end, but this subversion is an eye-opener, and because of this subversion, he finally won the Outstanding Actor Award of the Huabiao Awards.
Compared with Liu Tianwang in that parallel world, Liu Dehua, who can almost be said to be the same person, has not yet taken this step, whether it is because he has not encountered such an opportunity, or because of the problem of mood, the answer to this question Zhang Liang naturally does not know, what he is worried about now is whether Liu Dehua can successfully deduce Chen Yongren's ruffian.
Although Chen Yongren is a policeman, but after nearly ten years of undercover life, the so-called close to Zhu is red and close to ink is black, even if he is an upright person, it is inevitable that he will be a little distorted, not to mention that an undercover agent is much more difficult than being a real underworld, and he must always remind himself that he is a policeman when doing underworld things, and this contradictory mentality can easily drive people crazy.
"I'm just insane!" Chen Yongren's angry remark when he complained to Officer Huang may also be a verification of undercover work.
Therefore, Zhang Liang borrowed two scenes to try the fit of Liu Dehua and Chen Yongren's role, Zhang Liang is naturally not worried about acting skills, what he is worried about is just temperament, Chen Yongren's ruffian is not a handsome ruffian like Liu Dehua's previous roles, but a kind of ruffian mixed with some coldness, entanglement and some underworlds, which requires Liu Dehua to make a big breakthrough, not only in appearance but also in temperament.
The two scenes chosen, one is the scene where Chen Yongren and Superintendent Huang meet on the rooftop and complain for three years and three years, and the other is the scene where Chen Yongren finds out that Liu Jianming is Han Chen's undercover agent and meets on the rooftop. The first scene should show a little ruffian, and the second scene should show a little positive, if Liu Dehua can perform these two scenes smoothly, then there should be no problem with the others.
And the reason why he chose these two scenes, Zhang Liang is still a little careful because the second scene is a rival play with him, since it is a rival play, he naturally needs his interpretation, and he is also in order to use this rival scene to show these bigwigs his acting skills, so that this group of people don't take him seriously as a director, which can be regarded as a kind of strength to speak.
"Shoot these two scenes as soon as you come up?" Liu Dehua was a little surprised by Zhang Liang's arrangement, but he didn't ask much, although he was a king, but after all, he had never been a director, so Zhang Liang would not understand his self-heating arrangement, and always felt that Zhang Liang should have his own intentions, and he naturally listened to Zhang Liang at this time.
Relatively speaking, Zhang Liang should be more professional than him in this regard, Liu Dehua thinks so.
As the first day of filming, in fact, many actors did not have performance tasks, but whether they were concerned or curious, they all came to the shooting site on time, and they all wanted to watch the real strength of this rookie director.
The metropolis of Xiangjiang has high-rise buildings, and naturally there are rooftops, so it is naturally not difficult to find a place to shoot, Zhang Liang basically spent his time in the morning to be familiar with the crew, plus the demand for light in these two scenes, so Zhang Liang decided to start filming in the afternoon.
Under the toss of the morning, everything is ready, Zhang Liang can be regarded as sitting leisurely on his director's chair, hearing Liu Dehua's voice, Zhang Liang turned his head when he heard the voice, and saw that it was Liu Dehua who had already put on a leather coat.
"Oops, yes, yes. Looking at Liu Dehua's outfit, Zhang Liang nodded with satisfaction, at first he was worried that because of the Mandarin he spoke, but the crew was used to speaking Cantonese and there might be communication problems, but I didn't expect the makeup artist and stylist to complete the task smoothly.
"Okay?" Liu Dehua stroked his somewhat oily hair, "Why do I always feel so bottomless in my heart?"
"You big king have something bottomless, let's try it first. You'll sit here later, tapping on your plaster cast while waiting for Superintendent Huang to arrive, and then you'll ...... Wait, don't dress so properly in your leather coat, you've been in the underworld for ten years, take it off, yes, yes, sit like this, with a little impatience on your face, yes, that's it. ”
As soon as Zhang Liang came up, he actually began to talk to Liu Dehua, and directly corrected Liu Dehua's wearing problem, which was somewhat surprising, obviously feeling that Liu Dehua's dress was fine, but why did Zhang Liang feel that it was better after Zhang Liang corrected it?
"The first scene of "Infernal Affairs", the first scene, the first shot, the first time, action. ”
Finally started filming, the onlookers and others naturally looked at the two people in the scene quietly, Liu Dehua, who played Chen Yongren, sat on the pipe, with some impatience on his face, Bai Dongsheng, who played Superintendent Huang, gradually appeared in the scene, seeing the appearance of Superintendent Huang, Chen Yongren took a look, and then the scene was basically over, and then it was the official line, but at that time, Zhang Liang shouted "Click", which made everyone look at him inexplicably.
"Brother Liu, your charm just now is not right, and your impatience is too pure. ”
"Huh?" Not only Liu Dehua was confused, but the onlookers were also confused.
This impatience is also pure and impure? Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
