Chapter 18: Introducing you to an actress

Li Xiuping's conversation with a man and a man still has some effect, Wang Longzheng's performance in the afternoon is much more open, staring at people and slapping the table, taking out a gun and putting his head on the head are very into the play, the whole set is brought up for him, and the other supporting actors and groups quickly entered the state under the influence of Wang Longzheng, Li Xiuping took several long shots, and the effect was very good.

At the end of the afternoon shooting, Li Xiuping gave Wang Lung a thumbs up, "Lao Wang, it's amazing, you deserve to be a professional in acting." ”

Wang Longzheng still seemed to be in Tai Wei's mode, he glanced at Li Xiuping lightly, and said sullenly: "It's okay." ”

Li Xiuping smiled, turned to look at Li Yifeng beside him, "Yi Feng, how do you feel?"

"He's so powerful, I feel like he's Tai Wei. ”

"Of course, he is a bachelor's degree graduate of Chinese opera, and he was still acting in dramas before he came to the crew, and playing Tai Wei is completely handy. ”

Li Yifeng nodded and did not speak.

Because Li Yifeng was not in a good state, Li Xiuping did not arrange Li Yifeng's filming in the afternoon, but mainly filmed Tai Wei's scene, Li Yifeng stood next to Li Xiuping, watched Wang Longzheng's performance with Li Xiuping, and stood behind the camera, making Li Yifeng deeply aware of how bad his acting skills were.

Li Yifeng's previous filming of "Come on, Tennis King", all the leading actors are inexperienced newcomers, and the supporting scenes are completely rookie to rookie, both sides are rotten, and it looks harmonious and natural. He followed the "Happiness" series, and the supporting actors and actresses were several young Wanwan actors and actresses, the older generation of Wanwan naturally has old drama bones and people with superb acting skills, but the young ones are affected by Japanese comics, and their acting is basically a startling neurotic performance, Li Yifeng seems to be a little more normal compared to them.

But this afternoon, Li Yifeng saw Wang Longzheng's performance, and saw Wang Longzheng smoking in front of the camera, slapping the table and smashing the stool and scolding people, he found that Wang Longzheng was not struggling at all, and it seemed that he had practiced countless times before, which shocked Li Yifeng, and he thought that if he was asked to do it, he couldn't do a low-eyebrow smoking action. The cruel reality not only confused Li Yifeng, but also hit his self-confidence, at this time he was not only out of state, but even a little afraid of acting.

"Director, although I am the leading actor, I am acting with him, I am afraid that I will be completely crushed, what will netizens say about me at that time. ”

Li Xiuping smiled slightly, "Yi Feng, have you seen it?"

Li Yifeng nodded, "Of course I have seen it, who in the whole of China has not seen that." ”

"After watching it, you will know that Mama Rong's acting skills are awesome, at that time she beat all the other actors, but will we pay attention to these when we watch the drama?"

"Well, I don't think so. ”

"Do you know why?"

"It's like we're all thinking about the plot and not caring about anything else. Li Yifeng thought for a while and said.

"That's the truth, as long as your performance doesn't make a play, then almost no one will think about acting, especially ordinary audiences, they watch TV dramas while eating, or chatting, or watching on the bus with their mobile phones, few people can watch it seriously wholeheartedly, and naturally no one pays attention to acting. Watching movies is different, in the cinema, under the big screen, subtle gaps can be found, so making movies requires high acting skills, especially movies with old drama bones, without acting skills, it will really become scum in seconds. If you are filming an online drama now, the audience will be more tolerant. ”

Li Yifeng smiled, "I'm still a little unconfident." ”

"You have to be confident, this role is very easy to play, self-confidence, justice and strength, these are positive spirits, you are 23 years old this year, isn't it similar to Fang Mu? Isn't Fang Mu's character the mental outlook that young people should have? What are you afraid of?"

"yes, I see. ”

Li Xiuping smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "There is one more point, you still have to edit after filming, you can rest assured, you really have a clip that has been crushed, I will cut it." ”

Li Yifeng looked at Li Xiuping in surprise, "Can it still be like this?"

Li Xiuping laughed, "You don't have any jokes." ”

"Okay, I'll work hard tomorrow. ”

Li Xiuping didn't have the skills to train actors, he could only fool Li Yifeng, but fortunately, Li Yifeng seemed to really believe it, and Li Xiuping couldn't help but be happy.

"Let's go, let's eat. ”

Although the filming of the first day of "Crime in the Heart" did not go smoothly as expected, Li Xiuping felt that he could still give six points out of ten out of ten points, and the shooting progress in the afternoon was fast, wasn't it? So Li Xiuping was in a good mood, after filming the last scene, Li Xiuping planned to invite Li Yifeng and Wang Longzheng to eat together, but at this moment he received a message that made him very annoyed.

"Director, I'm sorry, I have an urgent matter at home, I want to take a month off, can I shoot my scene in a month?"

This is a text message from the actress who plays Fang Mu's girlfriend Chen Xi, this actress was selected by Li Xiuping among more than 20 candidates, she is a beautiful group performer, her acting skills are not very good, she is confident enough, she was very calm and calm during the audition, and Li Xiuping had some impressions of her.

There are relatively few female characters in "Crime in the Heart", not to mention the first female and the second female, in fact, they are all female supporting roles, this Chen Xi's role is not very heavy, but the actress has signed a contract with the crew, but at this time, such a text message was sent, which made Li Xiuping feel very uncomfortable.

The so-called family emergency is just an excuse, and the actress may be taken by other crews and want to change jobs, but because she signed the contract, she had to pay liquidated damages for unilaterally breaking the contract, so she solved this problem in this way.

If she posts on the Internet to hype, Li Xiuping's bad reputation will be even more stinky, and it may affect "Crime in the Heart".

As for the re-filming in a month, it will be even more impossible, Li Xiuping has already planned to shoot, he doesn't want to change it, and he can't let Li Yifeng and Wang Longzheng wait for an unknown actress.

On the whole, Li Xiuping could only compromise, so he replied with a short breath.

"If you have an urgent matter at home, you can go home first, but the crew has arranged it here, so it is impossible to wait for you to come back in a month to make up the filming, in this case, we have to terminate the contract, so that neither of us has a loss, you come over tomorrow to sign a termination contract." ”

"Okay. The actress quickly texted back.

hasn't been paid yet, so Li Xiuping doesn't have any pressure to terminate the contract, as for the actress, HD has not 10,000 but 8,000, and Li Xiuping doesn't care. However, this actress dares to play such a trick, in the final analysis, Li Xiuping is not famous enough, has no prestige and no connections, otherwise even if the actress dares to change jobs, no crew dares to take it.

"Damn, I'm still an unknown director. ”

Although Li Xiuping understood this fact, he was still a little depressed, and then the phone rang again, Li Xiuping saw that it was Gao Gao Mountain, and they left each other's phones when they signed the contract, but they never contacted each other. Li Xiuping waited, and then pressed the answer button, "Hey, Mr. Gao! I'm sorry, it's noisy here, I didn't hear it just now." ”

"Brother Li, it's okay, we don't have to see each other so much. ”

"Well, then I won't say kind words in the future. ”

"I've been busy with Wanwan's promotion recently, Brother Li, do you have time to BJ, you are Wanwan director, it's good for you. ”

"Uh, no need, anyway, netizens should know that I directed the first season of Wanwan, and I'm too busy to leave. ”

"How's your new show?" replied HD Mountain.

"Just turned it on, it's okay. ”

"Are all the actors together?"

Li Xiuping's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "It was originally complete, but just now an actress said that there was an urgent matter at home and she needed to take a month off, where would I have time to wait for her for a month, let's negotiate and simply terminate the contract, so there is still a lack of a supporting actress." ”

"Brother Li, do you want me to introduce you to an actress," Gao Gaoshan said in a more serious tone, "This actress is very young, very beautiful, and still a professional in acting." ”

"Who?"

"Her name is Jiang Shuying, I don't know if you've heard of it?"

"Oh, I haven't heard of it, but I'm young and beautiful, and I'm still a professional performer, so I'm worried about the crew?"

"Hey, this girl is studying in the UK now, her family wants her to return to China, she refuses, saying that acting is boring, no, her father found me, asked me to find a crew, find a director with a good relationship, the director called her, said that she admired her performance, and asked her to return to China. ”

Li Xiuping smiled, "She said that acting is boring, doesn't she like acting?"

"No, she likes it very much, because when she just graduated a few years ago, she was hit by someone for acting, and she lost her self-confidence, so she has the practice I just said, Brother Li, I know that this approach will make you very difficult, but please believe me, you will definitely not regret it. ”

Li Xiuping smiled, he actually knew Jiang Shuying, although this girl will not become popular in the future, she is also a second-tier female star, and it is definitely more than enough to play "Crime in the Heart", so people are really willing to come, and he is definitely welcome.

"Mr. Gao, it's no problem to call, the main thing is that I don't have any money, my male one is only 20,000 episodes, and the second male is paid even less, 10,000 episodes. The female group actor I want to terminate the contract, 3,001 episodes, I don't know what the price of this Jiang Shuying is?"

"Give 30,000, Brother Li, she will come back to filming, and I will transfer the salary back to you immediately. ”

"Okay, then I'm not hypocritical, Mr. Gao, you give me her contact information. ”

"Well, her phone number is 13XXXXXX. ”

"No problem, Mr. Gao, I'll contact her later. ”

"Okay, Brother Li, thank you so much, I remember this love, you will definitely be blessed, believe me. ”

"It's fine. ”

Li Xiuping put down his phone, he couldn't help laughing, "The blessing I want is that someone invests in making movies, I don't know if this Jiang Shuying has this ability?"
