Chapter 290: Three Years of Growth

Xu Zhen noticed Yu Mei's gaze across the table and greeted her with a smile.

At this time, it happened that three years had passed since the two met for the first time.

In the past three years, of course, the two have not met, and Xu Zhen has met Yu Mei three or four times in various brand activities, announcements, parties and other activities.

It's just that every time the two meet, they meet in a hurry and separate, and they never sit down and chat.

Now that they are reunited again, Xu Zhen looked at Yu Mei in front of him, who was smiling and looking the same as before, and suddenly seemed to be back to three years ago.

At that time, he was a fledgling and had no concept of acting, and in the face of the star-studded cast in the conference room, he looked at his nose and nose, and he couldn't raise a little self-confidence.

And Yu Mei, as a well-known acting school, has given herself a lot of guidance.

Xu Zhen acted for the first time with the mentality of a role, and learned to use his eyes to express emotions for the first time, all of which were taught by Yu Mei.

He still clearly remembers that when the crew of "The First Knife in the World" organized the script to be read, director Deng Dayan proposed to take a quiz with the hall to determine which group he directed.

At that time, Yu Mei offered to help Xu Zhen play, and his psychological defense line was broken with his eyes alone, which brought a huge shock to Xu Zhen.

This is a senior who has a "half-teacher" friendship with himself.

The two looked at each other, Yu Mei raised the script in his hand, and said, "Mei Changsu, we have read the script for almost a third of the time, and we should be familiar with the previous lines, can you keep up?" ”

Xu Zhen straightened his sitting posture and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Sister Mei, in terms of lines, I won't admit defeat!" ”

Yu Mei looked at the confidence in his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Yo, my family has grown up with a knife!" ”

"Okay, your momentum is very good, let my sister meet you in a while!"

There was a low burst of laughter in the conference room.

……

After a while, Director Chu Xiaoxiong came back from the bathroom, entered the room and saw Xu Zhen, and said in surprise: "Yo, Xiao Xu is back today?" ”

Xu Zhen smiled awkwardly and said respectfully: "I'm sorry director, I've delayed everyone's progress." ”

Chu Xiaoxiong waved his hand and said, "The progress is not delayed, we have skipped the lines involving you before." ”

"Then from today onwards, let's continue according to the previous progress, and the part that was skipped will be made up at the end."

As he spoke, he flipped through the script in his hand and said, "Where did you read it yesterday?" ”

Shao Manling, the screenwriter on the side, said: "The 233rd scene of the first volume will continue from the 234th scene today. ”

Chu Xiaoxiong flipped the script to this position, took a cursory look, nodded, and said, "Then let's start, the first scene is Emperor Liang and Xie Yu." ”

……

Due to Cai Shijian's personal obsession, all the TV series that Dongyue planned to shoot before had to organize scripts to read, and it really took a long time to read them from beginning to end.

Now that a new studio has been established, it is natural to bring a full set of "Cai's hypocrisy" over.

Xu Zhen has not filmed the TV series that Mr. Cai is planning to shoot for a long time, and this time he re-experienced the script reading, which feels both cordial and nostalgic.

Other companies' dramas, such as "Blue Blood Sword", "Breaking through the Guandong", and "Yang Jiajiang", actually do not have this link.

Reading a script is not just a matter of reading words, but a form of performance that lies somewhere between reading aloud and performing.

There is no makeup, hair and lighting, no camera movement and scene scheduling, and every actor honestly sits in his seat and reads his lines, but the emotions he should have are not missing at all.

Everyone reads and listens, and whoever feels that there is a problem or an uncomfortable situation will bring it up on the spot, and the director and screenwriter will discuss the revision with everyone.

Some foreign film crews will even organize public script readings and charge tickets...... That's a bit of a madness.

“…… The minister thought that the prince was virtuous, and the more noble concubine had made great contributions, and had been in the harem for many years, and had always ...... to His Majesty wholeheartedly"

At this time, the first person to start reciting the lines was Xie Yanjun, who played Xie Yu.

Xie Yanjun's voice conditions can only be regarded as average, but his line skills are very good.

His grasp of the breath and the grasp of the emotions in the tone can always scratch people's itches, and it is an excellent pleasure to listen to him read the lines.

And playing with him is Bao Weiguo, who plays Emperor Liang.

The actor of Cao Cao in the old version of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the Flying Eagle Emperor, and the line teacher of Chinese opera......

The meaning behind this series of titles is this: textbook line performance.

Xu Zhen pursed his lips, looked at the script in his hand intently, and quickly recorded the modulation and frustration of the two seniors on the script, and the sentence was interrupted.

As he listened, he compared the treatment methods he had expected before, and corrected the inappropriate handling little by little, but he felt that he had gained a lot.

There are a lot of lines in the script of "Langya Bang", almost every main character has thousands of words, and some even tens of thousands of words.

This level of memory is nothing short of a disaster for the average person.

But Xu Zhen noticed that all the men and women present were able to recite their entire lines smoothly at a glance, obviously doing a lot of homework in advance.

However, Xu Zhen not only did not feel pressure, but was relieved by the seriousness of his "teammates" and was full of fighting spirit.

- Thank you for your seriousness!

If other people don't even read the script, and get by and do things perfunctory, I will feel like a fool to memorize the whole text backwards.

……

"Next, the 237th game," a moment later, Chu Xiaoxiong glanced up at Xu Zhen and said, "This scene where Nihuang Dao broke Lin Shu's identity." ”

"Adjust your mood, start in 10 seconds."

Hearing this, Xu Zhen put down the marker pen in his hand, closed the script, and took a deep breath.

"Huh?" Tang Yi, who was sitting on his right hand, couldn't help but be slightly stunned when he saw this.

Everyone else looks down at the script when it's their turn, he's good, but when others read it, they read it desperately, but when it's their turn, they close the script?

What is this operation?

However, the script reading is not like normal shooting, there is no such verbose thing as lighting, radio, and playing boards in the middle, and in the blink of an eye, Yu Mei on the other side of the table has already opened his mouth.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, Mr. Su has been healthy lately?" Yu Mei also didn't read the script, but held her chin with both hands, looked at Xu Zhen in front of her without squinting, and had a polite and alienated smile on her lips.

When she said this, the aura around her body seemed to have undergone subtle changes, and there was a three-point heroic spirit between the originally beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and she looked quite heroic and sassy.

"The county lord is worried, everything is fine." The next moment, Xu Zhen spoke.

With a shallow smile, his expression didn't seem to be as heroic and radiant as Fang Cai, but added a little bookish anger, and said unhurriedly, calmly and indifferently: "Su moved not long ago, received a generous gift from your mansion, and has not been able to come to the door to thank you, and please don't blame the county lord." ”

His words don't seem to be as powerful as Xie Yu and King Liang in terms of lines, but the aura exuded by Zhou is very different from Xu Zhen on weekdays.

From the moment he spoke, he was no longer Xu Zhen, but completely became a different person.

Yu Mei on the opposite side noticed the changes that had occurred in the past three or five seconds, and was slightly stunned.

- Now Xu Zhen, has he been able to play to this extent?

This is a lot higher than the level he showed in "Three Kingdoms"!
