Chapter 053: Gong Xiuning
The audition location was arranged in Dahengcheng, the filming location.
Ye Jinchu left for Hengcheng Film and Television City early in the morning of the second day after receiving Qiao Zehan's call, and arrived at the filming location at just after nine o'clock.
The set is in an antique mansion, and Ye Jin had already started work when he first arrived, and he was filming the part of Qi Jingyun and the male protagonist Gong Xiu and Qin Se and Ming.
"Cards!" Zhang Jianye frowned, "Qi Jingyun, your eyes are wrong, you have just gotten married, and you haven't fallen in love with Gong Xiuhe at this time, but you have to show the shyness of the ancient woman after marriage and the faint love for her husband, and at the same time show the coldness of the character's heart and the softness of the appearance, you yourself tell me what mess you played just now!" ”
"And you Gong Xiuhe, have you eaten through the role you played? What the hell was that acting just now? Is it a talented person who goes to the flower building to prostitute a girl? ”
The hero and heroine were trained to be like dogs, they didn't dare to speak with their heads down, and the other staff didn't even dare to breathe.
I have long heard that Director Zhang has a very bad temper when filming, it seems to be true, terrible and terrible!
Zhang Jianye's words of training did not stop, after training the female protagonist and the male protagonist, after training the male protagonist, he trained the props master and lighting engineer, anyway, he had to scold him again if he felt that it was wrong.
finally waited for him to finish his training, and the drama director who brought Ye Jinchu in walked to Zhang Jianye's side: "Director, the actor who interviewed Gong Xiuning has arrived." ”
Zhang Jianye turned his head to look at them, there was no smile on his serious face, his eyes were very sharp, and he looked at Ye Jinchu without scruples, which made people a little nervous.
"Have you read the script?"
Ye Jinchu nodded: "I've read it." ”
"Hmm." Zhang Jianye didn't say anything more to her, turned his head to the drama director next to him and said, "Let someone take her down to make up first." ”
Gong Xiuning is an eighteen-year-old girl dressed as a man, because she is the only concubine of the palace family, her identity is gold and jade, and the palace minister is a close minister of the emperor, and she was valued by the emperor, and she has studied and grown up with the princes and princesses since she was five years old, and she was born with the noble temperament of the superior, but because of the relationship between her daughter, her heart has been full of yearning for the restoration of her daughter's body, so this role is more complex than the heroine.
Director Zhang's crew is very finely done.
Ye Jinchu had already started acting when she walked out of the dressing room, and now she is Gong Xiuning.
She has not gained nothing during the period of cooperation with Lu Nian, she has learned a lot from Lu Nian and Yan Xiaohui, she is already smart, and many things can be learned as soon as she learns, although her acting skills cannot be compared with Lu Nian's demon, but because the role of Gong Xiuning is a woman dressed as a man, she feels very comfortable acting.
In the last days, women are easy to be targeted, she was very weak in the early days, although she awakened the ability but was very weak in the early days, so in order to protect herself, she acted as a man for a long time.
Men and women are not only very different in body shape and appearance, but the most important thing is that the movement and behavior patterns are completely different, for example, when walking, men usually stride with open chests and try to make themselves as big as possible, because they want to show their strength and spontaneity, while women, on the contrary, they want to look petite and elegant.
And it is even more difficult to play a woman who has been dressed as a man since she was a child, she must have both the elegance of a woman and the strength and freedom of a man, so it is indeed a very difficult role for ordinary actors.
Ye Jinchu walked in a Yunjin plain and elegant robe, with an autumn fairy pattern belt tied around her waist, and a black and shiny hair raised up from the jade crown.
Zhang Jianye's calm eyes couldn't help but light up a few points when he saw her coming, and walked up to Ye Jinchu's side and looked up and down with his chin in his hands.
"Ma Ziming, you came to meet her in that scene of playing the piano in the garden."
Ma Ziming is the actor who plays Gong Xiuhe, not a newcomer, he has already filmed several dramas, but it is the first time to star in such a big-budget movie.
"Okay." Ma Ziming nodded hurriedly.
The garden encounter, that is, the plot of the brief exchange between the two Gong Xiuning brothers who met by chance in the palace garden, the plot is very simple, but it is a very important plot point, because the dark tide between the brothers is most obvious here.
The view of the garden has been set up perfectly.
Zhang Jianye briefly talked to them, and then Ye Jinchu and Ma Ziming each walked to their corresponding positions.
After playing cards, Ye Jinchu's audition began.
At the same time, the sound of the piano creaked intermittently, it was Gong Xiuhe playing the piano in the garden, of course, the actors did not know how to play, and there would be a special soundtrack in the later stage.
Gong Xiuning walked in at this time, and chuckled lightly when she heard the sound of the piano, and her smile was faint, as if she had no emotion, and then she suddenly bent down and approached a pink-purple leaf peony that was blooming.
Zhang Jianye's face is almost close to the monitor, and there are more and more surprises in his eyes, the young man's inky black, blood-colored skin and the bright and dazzling flower in the monitor form a sharp contrast, and the strong color contrast makes the picture look beautiful and evil, which is just a combination of the chic of a teenager and the softness of a girl.
But what surprised Zhang Jianye was not limited to this, what he saw was more of the strong emotions in Gong Xiuning's eyes when he approached the flowers, which was obvious disgust and irony.
I saw that she casually folded the flower, her movements were a little rough, without a trace of love, and after she folded it, she dangled it in her hand carelessly, allowing the beautiful petals to fall silently.
She approached the gazebo, turned the flower stalk and smiled at the man in the pavilion: "Big brother, the newlywed Yan'er is not in the sister-in-law's room, why did Nephrite Wenxiang come here to play the piano and warm wine?" ”
Gong Xiuhe stopped playing the piano when he heard her voice, he was a righteous gentleman with an elegant temperament and a gentle jade, and he smiled lightly when he saw her appear, "Brother Ning is here, are you Xiu Mu today?" ”
"The old lady got a cold and gave the princes a holiday." Gong Xiuning walked to him and sat down as he spoke, and put the leaf peony in his hand on Gong Xiuhe's lyre, Ruyu's fingers gently plucked on the silver strings, and the sound of the piano was slow and slow, as if it was stirring the layers of purple petals.
"I wasn't there on the day the eldest brother got married, and I didn't give you a gift, but I happened to meet here today, so I used this dazzling leaf peony to celebrate the eldest brother, will the eldest brother dislike the younger brother?" Her smile was a little more wanton cold, and the dark light in her eyes seemed to be tingling.
Gong Xiuning's feelings for Gong Xiuhe are very complicated, she used to admire this brother who loves her, loves her, and cares for her, but all this has changed in the process of growing up, and she gradually understands a lot of conspiracies, so she has more resentment and hatred towards the man in front of her.
Because of the relationship between Gong Xiu and mother and son, her mother was born prematurely and damaged her body, and she was unable to give birth to any more children, so her mother would let her grow up as a boy in order to keep her status in the family, all because of the relationship between Gong Xiu and mother and son!
Gong Xiuhe picked up the leaf peony on the piano, his smile was as warm as the sun, and his other hand gently stroked her long hair, "Thank you, Brother Ning, I like it very much." ”
"That's good." Gong Xiuning didn't avoid his big hand, his head was slightly lowered, his eyes under his eyelashes were very complicated, he suddenly stood up and took the glass of warm wine on the table and drank it all, the face of the drinker was covered with a light layer of pink, but there was a heavy cold light jumping in his eyes, like a sharp sword.
She held the empty wine glass and said to Gong Xiuhe: "Little brother wishes the eldest brother and sister-in-law a long life, and a long life." ”
"Brother Chengning's auspicious words."
"Then I'll leave first, little brother."
Without waiting for Gong Xiuhe to respond, Gong Xiuning had already stepped away, with a bit of determination in his back, and Gong Xiuhe in the pavilion had already crushed the leaf peony in his hand, looking at the back of the young man leaving and chuckling lightly: "You actually gave me a peony, are you sarcastic about me?" Brother Ning, you've grown up, hehehe. ”
"Cards!"
Even if this scene is over, Zhang Jianye didn't say anything to Ye Jinchu right away, but just sat in front of the monitor and played back the pictures taken by the cameras just now.
The others didn't dare to disturb him, and they all watched quietly as he replayed the footage taken by various cameras over and over again.
After about ten minutes, Zhang Jianye stood up and asked Ye Jinchu: "How did you think of folding off the leaf peony instead of that piece of warm jade as a congratulatory gift?" ”
In the script, Gong Xiuning should take off the warm jade she hung on her waist as a congratulatory gift, casual and perfunctory, Ye Jinchu changed the script without authorization, but fortunately, Ma Ziming received it okay.
Ye Jinchu replied: "Gong Xiuning's character is very smart and cunning, she has realized that the eldest brother is not as gentlemanly and square as he shows, and she is only eighteen years old, and it is inevitable that she will be a little juvenile, and it is inevitable that she will not be able to completely forbear when she perceives the true face of the eldest brother, so I think her attitude towards Gong Xiuhe at this time should be stronger, warm jade is still jade after all, although it is sent casually perfunctory, but it is still not enough to show her sarcasm towards him, and Ye Peony's flower language is hypocritical, and Gong Xiu is a flower that matches the essence of this person." And the so-called borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, this Buddha has the meaning of irony and palace repair. ”
She briefly explained her intention to change the script, because she was an audition, so it was not impossible to change the script even temporarily.
Zhang Jianye nodded, and said a rare compliment: "You understand the character very thoroughly, and this plot has been changed very well!" ”
The changed plot is more intense than the original plot conflict, and the picture is also better, including the scene where she puts the flower on the string and plays it lightly, and the scene of Gong Xiu and pinching the flower also highlights his hidden character traits.
Originally, he asked the little girl to come to audition because of Qiao Zehan's rare recommendation, and he didn't think that a fifteen-year-old girl from a non-professional class could play the Gong Xiuning in his mind, but he didn't expect an unexpected surprise, not only her acting skills were amazing, but her understanding of the plot was deeper than he imagined.
"Gong Xiuning is yours." Zhang Jianye stretched out his hand to the little girl, "Welcome to join us." ”
Ye Jinchu also stretched out his hand to shake him: "Thank you Director Zhang, please give Director Zhang more guidance in the future." ”
