Newcomers are miserable, no matter what industry it is.

Most people come up from newcomers, so they always feel a little uncomfortable when they see a newcomer suddenly come to the top now.

When they saw Gan Jing's first shot, many people felt a little strange comfort in their hearts.

The camera continued, and Gan Jing, who was a little restrained, continued to act while Chen Kaige frowned.

The assistant director on the side was a little apprehensive, and he didn't feel good when he saw Director Chen's expression, but he didn't know, he was just looking forward to the later shots.

The reason why he pushed Gan Jing out against public opinion was only because of this person's eyes.

Mei Lanfang is a great artist, a gentle resistant, and has a kind of pressure on her peers, relatives, and the times that she can't afford to lose.

His confidante Meng Xiaodong understood him, and told him not to be afraid before parting.

His predecessor grandfather Thirteen Yan understood him, and said that there was no shame in losing, and he was afraid that he would be ashamed.

Therefore, gentleness alone cannot resist this pressure.

Mei Lanfang's core must be tenacious, she must have an unimaginable love for drama, and she must be crazy or even a little crazy.

This is Chen Kaige's thinking, and it is also the most valuable shining point he saw in Gan Jing.

Chen Kaige once recalled after Leslie Cheung's death: "Leslie Cheung must invest in the characters he plays with his personal feelings, so as to achieve such a state in performance." It was one of his eyes that exhausted the theme of infatuation and betrayal in "Farewell My Concubine". ”

He saw that look in Gan Jing again, and re-realized his ambition for the character of Mei Lanfang.

Liming is very good, he is a rare actor, and his temperament is very in line with the identity of the master, but the master not only has the gentle skin on the outside, but also has the spirit of fighting spirit.

Chen Kaige sat on the seat, unconsciously distracted, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that the camera had unconsciously gone backwards.

"Click. ”

He shouted again, but his brows had already stretched, the smell on Gan Jing's body was very much in line with his imagination, but he couldn't take it back, and he had to grind him out before he could use it.

The director shouts to stop, and the object is a newcomer who is the protagonist.

The atmosphere at the scene became a little weird and silent, who didn't know what Director Chen, who had a calm face, thought in his heart.

"Gan Jing, come here. He beckoned at Gan Jing.

Gan Jing sighed softly and apologized to Wang Xueqi, who played Thirteen Yan: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault, and I'm tired of you." ”

Wang Xueqi smiled and didn't speak, watching the young man run to Director Chen's side, he couldn't help but be a little happy.

Although this scene has not passed, Wang Xueqi, who is playing with him, has a little taste, this person is not like a newcomer, and he has a natural sense of familiarity with the grasp of the position of the camera and the volume of sound reception.

This feeling quickly changed from youth to familiarity with Gan Jing's few steps in front of him, which was very strange and interesting.

Wang Xueqi shook his head and began to brew the feeling of his role in his heart again.

Gan Jing was a little uneasy, he came according to the kind of acting experience in his heart, and he received it after being clicked for the first time, but he didn't expect it to be successful.

Chen Kaige didn't speak immediately, he glanced at Gan Jing, turned his head and shouted to the back: "Old Li Tou, come on, come on, bring this kid over to teach him, and help him figure out how to act." ”

"Come on. ”

An old man came out from behind, not very neatly dressed, and stood next to him with a smile.

"You learn from him first, and you have nothing to do to see how others act. Chen Kaige's attitude was neither close nor indifferent, so he sent the two away after saying this.

In addition to Mei Lanfang's shots, there are other shots that need to be taken.

Gan Jing was gently dragged by the old man, and with a little loss, he followed to a quieter place behind.

"Gan Jing, right?"

"Well, what do you call it?"

"Just call me Uncle Li, Director Chen is not very satisfied with your performance. I heard you're a newcomer, what do you think of acting?"

Gan Jing was a little dazed, he hadn't thought about this problem, his original intention was to get more attention, although it seemed enough now, but the more the merrier, the better.

Acting is a bit of a drift thing, and if you can use your acting experience, that's great, and it's great if the director makes himself the protagonist.

Of course, being able to squeeze out a big coffee still has some dark feelings in his heart.

"Acting is about making you another person on the screen. The old man didn't say that he had to let Gan Jing answer, and then said, "What we pursue is to play who is like whom, and who to play whom." ”

"You played against Wang Xueqi just now, how did you feel?"

Gan Jing thought for a while and said, "I think he is quite stylish." ”

The old man pointed in the direction of the crew: "That's the taste of his performance, do you know how many pieces the director NG made of him yesterday? A full 43 pieces! What are you counting just twice!"

"The character of Thirteen Yan is domineering and arrogant, but he is fragile in his heart, and he admits that he is a ninth-rate servant. The old man pulled Gan Jing and walked in the direction of the crew, and asked Gan Jing to carefully observe Thirteen Yan's every move.

Action, language, details, logic, this old Li Tou, who was specially called by Chen Kaige, talked to Gan Jing eloquently, and the analysis was appropriate.

In the next two days, Gan Jing didn't appear on the camera, so he seriously followed the old man to squat in the corner outside the camera and whisper.

After another two days, in the increasingly wrong eyes of the other crew members, Director Chen finally called Gan Jing to his side again.

"Gan Jing, how is it? What have you learned?"

Gan Jing thought for a while, glanced at the old man who was chatting with relish on the other side, and said, "I didn't know much about acting before. Now, it seems that I understand what I don't understand. ”

This is a bit mysterious, Chen Kaige can't say that he is not satisfied, but he just asked people to inform Wang Xueqi that this time he and Mei Lanfang are going to be filmed.

The onlookers of the crew began to gather silently again, this scene made Chen Kaige look a little funny, but he also knew their thoughts.

Everyone is in place, the clapperboard is crisp, and the gowns are unveiled.

This time, the taste is different from before.

Chen Kaige, who was behind the camera, nodded, feeling that the assault teaching in the past few days was still effective, although there were still some traces in some aspects.

He didn't ask Gan Jing, but he guessed in his heart that this guy must like to watch Farewell My Concubine very much, and I like Yu Ji played by Leslie Cheung in it, even to the point of being like Xiao.

It's just that Cheng Dieyi is Cheng Dieyi, and Mei Lanfang is Mei Lanfang.

Both characters have the pursuit of art at the core, but they have different experiences and different encounters, and they can't completely play Mei Lanfang in the way of Cheng Dieyi.

This is a change that Chen Kaige needs Gan Jing to make.

Cheng Dieyi is certainly the pinnacle of his filming, but what director doesn't want to make a breakthrough?

This is very important to Chen Kaige, and it is also important to Gan Jing.
