Chapter 565. Gong Huang's guidance
Liu Yifei originally planned to take a day out to visit the class today, and leave in the evening to rush to the next activity city.
Originally, her schedule after the New Year was to give her less than two days, but after seeing Teacher Gong Li's acting skills on the set, she was suddenly a little shaken, and her heart was alive.
If I could have Teacher Gong Li's eight-layer skill, no, six-layer, what would it look like.
Liu Yifei couldn't help but think about it on the set.
She is still very ambitious about her acting skills.
When she first stepped into the actor industry, her idol was Audrey Hepburn, which was just a good wish, or a goal to motivate her to grow.
And now with Sun Yi's help, she is growing little by little through one role after another.
But Liu Yifei was a little dissatisfied, she felt that her growth could not keep up with Sun Yi's pace, aside from business and earning ability, she felt that she was a little unworthy of the big director in the family.
Xiao Nizi's competitiveness is still very strong.
Up to now, Sun Yi has won two domestic director awards, one at the University Student Film Festival and one at the Golden Rooster, and internationally, he has also won the Palme d'Or at Cannes.
And she herself just won the first Best Actress in her life, which is still a TV series.
Although many people say that movies and TV series are both a form of art, the general opinion of the public is that the acting skills of movie actors are higher than those of TV series, and she is not exempt from vulgarity.
Liu Yifei felt that her acting skills had reached a bottleneck, she lacked a lot in the basic items of acting skills before, and she had no choice, so she fell behind during school.
It was Sun Yi, the director, who trained her to the extreme, coupled with the constant feeding of the role, that allowed her to use various acting skills flexibly and understand it to a certain extent.
If you say, divide it according to the hierarchy in the popular sense.
Liu Yifei's current acting skills have gone through the first glimpse of the door, such as "The Family of Gold Powder", small gains such as "The Condor Heroes", and "Those Years", until "Refuge" and "Wings of the Sky" barely reached perfection.
Further up, there is the peak of the peak and a generation of grandmasters.
In fact, if you divide it according to this, Sun Yi's current level is not much different from Liu Yifei, and he can be perfected, but he is different, he is a director, not a professional actor.
Liu Yifei has requirements for herself, she also wants to stand at the top and see the scenery at the top of the mountain, and it is best to have Sun Yi by her side, but she now realizes that her acting skills seem to have entered a bottleneck.
After playing Yang Wanyu, she vaguely felt that she couldn't be promoted, like a shackle, she couldn't keep struggling and couldn't be torn off.
She also mentioned this feeling to Sun Yi, but Sun Yi didn't have a good way, and he didn't have any experience.
His acting skills only come from his own ten years of experience, as well as the two-year course he studied seriously in Beiying, plus a little bit of talent that is slightly higher than Xiao Nizi.
However, Sun Yi thinks that acting skills, as long as you rely on movies to brush up, will always improve, and the vast majority of those actors and actresses on Hong Kong Island don't come from this way.
Without him, only the hand is familiar.
At the same time, he also suggested that Liu Yifei could have more contact with some old drama bones and learn from experience.
But there's a catch.
Liu Yifei has debuted for so many years, it's not that she hasn't been in contact with the so-called old actors with superb acting skills, they all have their own experience and strengths, and there are actually not many actors who are in the same year as her and are mostly heroines.
In filming, she had the most contact with Zhou Xun, who was also in the starry sky, and she admitted from the bottom of her heart that Sister Xun's acting skills were very strong, but she was not very inspired by herself.
She also told Sister Xun about this problem, and Zhou Xun did not hide her secrets, and taught her understanding.
But Zhou Xun's acting skills are more with a unique personal color, very "spiritual", no matter what type of role is placed on her, the role can be brought to life, in a movie, no matter how many scenes, you will pay attention to her.
It's something from herself, something that can only be understood and cannot be spoken, and like a talent, it is difficult for others to learn.
After so many movies, Liu Yifei also realized that her talent can only be regarded as average, and the roles she plays are basically in the comfort zone, unless the roles are particularly suitable, there will be a situation where one plus one is greater than two.
Of course, the heart agrees with the heart, and in front of Sun Yi, he still looks arrogant, and he has never admitted it.
But seeing Teacher Gong Li's live performance today, Liu Yifei was shocked.
As a qualified actress, Teacher Gong Li's movies are a compulsory course, she has watched almost all of them, and she has always felt that she is unconscious, but she feels that she acts well, but she can't say how good it is.
At this moment of watching the scene, she realized something.
The atmosphere is the atmosphere of the whole film.
Teacher Gong Li used her performance to make the atmosphere of the movie very reasonable, from the moment she appeared just now, Liu Yifei couldn't find a flaw in her mind, and naturally felt that this scene should be like this.
You can't see the technique, and everything is natural.
Liu Yifei suddenly decided that she would not leave.
"Teacher Gong Li, eat some fruit, I just washed it."
After a scene, Gong Li returned to her place to rest, and Liu Yifei came over enthusiastically with a box of washed fruits.
For celebrities, especially singers, they will not eat things that are not prepared by their assistants, and actors are still a little worse in this regard, but many people also have this taboo.
Liu Yifei didn't know if it was unintentional or intentional, so she took a piece of strawberry and stuffed it into her mouth.
Gong Li smiled and didn't say anything, and took a piece.
"It's sweet."
"yes, I chose them all on purpose."
Liu Yifei was very happy, she found that at this moment, Teacher Gong Li's temperament has changed again, although her face is still dressed with makeup during filming, she feels that there is no vicissitudes of life, and she is very amiable.
This ability to get out of the play and into the play in an instant was also very surprising to her.
"By the way, Teacher Gong Li, why did you take over this play?" Liu Yifei swallowed the flesh in her mouth and asked tentatively.
Gong Li looked at Xiao Nizi's appearance and narrowed her eyes with a smile, Liu Yifei felt like a little beast who had just completed her first independent hunt and wanted to sum up her experience with the old-timers.
From the time she opened her mouth and called back Teacher Gong Li, she probably guessed.
However, she does think that the little girl is good, and with the face of Sun Yi, an excellent director, she is also very happy to give advice.
"I choose the script very idealistic, first of all, as an actor, I enjoy the process of filming, like experiencing another life, if the role is not good, then it means that this life is very dull, this is not interesting for me, I like to keep challenging, so I don't think there is any need to waste this time."
"The script written by Director Xiao Sun is very good, and although the character of Gui Ying is sad, it has a story, so I like it very much."
Liu Yifei nodded as if she didn't understand, and then said a little stupidly: "I have also read the script before, the role of Gui Ying is indeed as you said, it will be very brilliant if it is played well, but unfortunately I can't play it, it is not suitable in all aspects." ”
"Why?" Gong Li asked with a smile.
"For"
Liu Yifei stared at her eyes and was speechless for a while.
The role is not suitable, at his age, and, with this appearance, no matter how you say it, you can't play the role of Gui Ying.
She thought so in her heart, but these words had some meaning of raising her appearance, and she couldn't say it.
Of course, Gong Li could think of this reason, and she didn't embarrass Liu Yifei, and continued:
"As an actor, there is no role that is not suitable, just like the reverse performance in school, you think you are suitable for playing a man, but as an actor, you have to try, if you don't try, how can you know the final result, you have to have the courage to break your own shackles and put aside those bottles and cans."
Gong Li said with a smile, and finally added another sentence as if to verify her statement.
"When I played Qiu Ju, I was only 26 years old, and I wasn't much older than Ling."
Liu Yifei was shocked.
She has seen "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", a spicy rural woman, looking at it now, it is really nothing, but if you think that when Teacher Gong Li was 26 years old, who would have thought that she could play such a role to the fullest.
"The appearance of an actor is not the most important thing, it is true that appearance will give us a lot of convenience, but the most important thing for a role is her spiritual connotation, such as the current Cao Guiying, at my current age, acting is one look, and your current age, acting is another."
"Whether you are suitable or not is what others say about you, and you should choose yourself."
Liu Yifei seems to understand a little, Teacher Gong Li's words are to tell her that no matter what role she is, first of all, don't give her a qualitative suitability, but try it first, perform your own things, and get promoted.
Gong Li could see Liu Yifei's shock, and also felt that the little girl was okay in terms of understanding, and continued:
"I've seen your "Wings of the Sky", it's very good, it's very suitable for the role, and at your current age, it's already very good. But I think you should have something breakthrough that hasn't been expressed. ”
"Then Teacher Gong Li, how to break through this, when I was acting, I felt as if I had reached my own bottleneck, that feeling, a little indescribable, that is, that is"
Liu Yifei was a little anxious, thinking about how to fully express that feeling.
Gong Li nodded with a smile and said: "I understand, every actor will go through this process, my advice to you is to step out of your comfort zone and fully experience various different types of roles, from the character's heart, characteristics, and various angles to interpret, I believe your progress will be very fast." ”
"After all, there's a big director behind you."
Speaking of which, when Gong Li sees Liu Yifei now, it seems that she saw herself back then.
At that time, she also followed Lao Mouzi, a director, an actor, working hard and making progress together, and the final outcome of the two of them was not very good, but she hoped that Liu Yifei could go further here.
Liu Yifei really didn't leave that day, postponed the commercial activities, stayed and followed the crew to shoot, whenever Gong Li had a role, she followed to observe and study, and when the crew was resting, she would run over to ask, ask some of her own questions, and ask Gong Li.
For this situation, Sun Yi is also very happy to look at it, and Teacher Gong Li's acting skills can be said to be the ceiling of domestic actresses.
plays the role of an oppressed woman under feudal dogma, stubborn and forbearing; plays an ordinary woman, with the meekness, beauty, and resilience of Chinese women; plays the role of a dusty woman, with charming charm and faintly depraved despair; plays the role of a country woman, and is full of wildness.
She was the only one in "Farewell My Concubine" who was not suppressed by Zhang Guorong at all, and when she finally returned the sword to him, she turned her head and smiled, which was really soaked in the emotion of "I was born here".
Sun Yi found a time to thank Gong Li privately, and promised that he owed a big favor.
Gong Li is also very happy, although her current status is no longer lacking, but Sun Yi's current identity is also different, and a favor may be able to use anything.
In the next shooting, Sun Yi used the director's rights to let Liu Yifei participate more, and even sometimes, let her try a few scenes, although it was very miserable, but Liu Yifei felt that she had been improved.
Sometimes, Gong Li will also use some scenes, bringing Liu Yifei with her, just through the so-called "feeding play" to let her find that feeling.
This is not for fun, top actors do have this control.
During the interview of filming "The City is Full of Golden Armor", Zhou Jielun revealed to reporters that he had a crying scene with his mother, and he was very sad at first, afraid that he would not be able to cry at the scene, but when he was filming more than ten times, he saw Gong Li walking towards him with tears, and the atmosphere directly brought him to cry.
Now Gong Li is using this way to take Liu Yifei, but it's a pity that in this film, it basically revolves around the two male and female protagonists, Gui Ying and Ma Youtie, and there are not many scenes that Xiao Nizi can experience in person.
Sun Yi regretted it a little, he knew that he could also use this way to improve Xiao Nizi's acting skills, and he should have made another script.
But to be honest, he didn't expect Gong Li to be able to do it to this extent, but this time the favor was too much.
Liu Yifei stayed in the crew for ten days, and the activities over there were really not good to delay any longer, after all, she had signed a contract, so she could only leave early with great regret.
The filming of the crew's side has also come to an end, and now there are not many scenes every day, Sun Yi has begun to ask Li Ruijun to sort out the materials that have been filmed before to see if there is anything that needs to be refilmed, and the film will be completed in about one day or two.
Today is the last day according to the shooting plan, everyone got up early in the morning, and they gathered in the cafeteria to eat breakfast in a relaxed mood, and Sun Yi joked about his uncle-in-law while eating steamed buns.
"Uncle, if there is no accident with our movie, it will be finished today, well, it's over, do you feel about it?"
"Sun, Director Sun, this movie is also quite interesting."
"Uncle, are you interested in becoming a professional actor in the future?"
"Ahh
"Hahaha"
Wu Renlin shook his head again and again in embarrassment, causing everyone at the scene to laugh, it can be finished today, and everyone is in a good mood.
Sun Yi swallowed the last bite of the bun with a smile, and just as he was about to take a sip of soy milk and press it, he suddenly noticed that the soy milk in the bowl inexplicably rippled in circles, and just when he didn't know why, his feet suddenly shook
