The first crew in which Jian Mingxi participated was Damai Entertainment's own project, a very popular bitter drama of the Republic of China.

Early in the morning, Li Mi took Jian Mingxi to the crew.

The assistant director in charge of casting also knew that a company's agent and artist were coming today, and thought that it was to bring his own resources, so he was not calm when he met.

"You said you brought him to play tricks?"

The assistant director is not tall, and he has to tilt his head slightly to see Jian Mingxi's face clearly.

Even if you look up at the angle of death, you can clearly see that he is a handsome guy who is rare to see in the entertainment industry.

"Is there a mistake? Actually, our heroine's emotional drama is more complicated, and it's okay to add a male number four. ”

Li Miwan refused the assistant director's kindness and reiterated her request again, "It's just a trick, any street vendor, villain thug, you can do it." ”

In the eyes of the assistant director, who hated iron but not steel, Li Mi took Jian Mingxi to change clothes and prepare.

There happened to be a scene that needed to be performed by gangsters, the clothes were wide Chinese-style coats, and the pants were also very fat.

But Jian Mingxi is dressed, his sleeves and pants are shortened, and he even has a dusty Chinese temperament, not like he wants to bully the people, but like a heroic boy who punches ten in one punch.

"You sit, I'll put on your makeup." Li Mi pressed Jian Mingxi's shoulder and took out the makeup bag he brought.

Without blinking his eyes, he directly chose the blackest foundation and slapped it on Jian Mingxi's face.

It's not enough to paint black, the eyebrows have to be drawn thicker, the middle is best connected, the eyeliner is drawn down, how to show the eyes are small, how to draw, and finally put a mole on the corner of the mouth, the kind with hair.

"Shhhh Li Mi admired his masterpiece and was very satisfied.

The assistant director was already numb when he watched Li Mi toss a handsome guy like this, but Jian Mingxi, who looked at his long hands and feet, said euphemistically, "What, the little brother's temperament is still a little different from that of the gangsters......"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jian Mingxi, who was originally stretching his limbs, withdrew one leg, and the other leg was leaning on the ground, his straight back also collapsed, his eyelids drooped, and his eyes peeked around.

"Now, it's obscene enough, isn't it?" Li Mi put his arm on Jian Mingxi's shoulder and asked the assistant director.

In an instant, the assistant director changed from pleasing to feeling dirty when he looked at it more, and nodded again and again, "Enough is enough, not only is it obscene, but it looks unflat." ”

Basically, no one will wear makeup in a group performance, and if you change your clothes and stand in front of the camera, you can live together.

The character of Jian Mingxi doesn't say lines, there is no close-up of the camera, and he is stuck in the crowd, because he deliberately slumps his shoulders, and he is not even tall.

"Ka, next!"

Soon a shot was done.

The assistant director took out twenty yuan and handed it to Jian Mingxi, but he was really reluctant to hold his hand, "The fourth male doesn't think about it anymore?" It's really not good, but the third male can also do it. ”

Li Mi smiled and pulled Jian Mingxi's arm out, "Now Mingxi is still honing and learning, and I will definitely cooperate again if I have the opportunity in the future." ”

"Okay, it's decided, I'm waiting for your schedule." Hearing this, the assistant director finally withdrew his hand, and reluctantly waved his hand to watch the two of them leave in a hurry.

In the second scene, there is a vendor selling melons, and his clothes are much the same, a white undershirt, and a big straw hat, and even makeup is saved.

also gained the incomprehension and retention of the assistant director.

The filming time of both scenes was actually very short, but by the time I returned to the homestay, it was already dark.

This is because the scene of the group performance has to be adjusted to match the play of the protagonist, and often a shot has to wait for half a day in the crew, and it is not necessary to use this scene in the end.

"You do your homework, I'll cut the watermelon."

Li Mi held the watermelon he bought by the way from the second crew and went into the kitchen to cut it, the watermelon in the winter greenhouse tasted average, but the moisture was quite sufficient.

Coming out with a melon, Jian Mingxi was already seriously holding the pen and writing the biographies of today's two characters.

Originally, Li Mi prepared a notebook, but he never used it and couldn't type, so he finally chose to write.

Looking at Jian Mingxi, who was wearing a loose sweater, with slightly moist hair ends, and bowed his head to write seriously, Li Mi didn't know why, and felt a sense of satisfaction as a teacher.

I took a bite of the watermelon and thought, hehe, this is a good seedling I raised! Future actor!

Waiting for Li Mi to show off half a piece of watermelon in one go, Jian Mingxi's two short biographies were almost written.

"Eat melons." Li Mi pushed the watermelon to Jian Mingxi, picked up the homework and looked at it seriously.

One is a street gangster who follows the villain all day long, and the other is an ordinary street melon farmer.

In this way, the two characters who didn't even have a word of the script in ink, Jian Mingxi also seriously conceived a short biography of nearly 1,000 words.

Gangster, is the only seedling of three generations of single transmission, spoiled and raised by his parents at home, stealing chickens and dogs since he was a child but being protected by his parents, the more he grows up, the more he is out of tune, he can't find serious work, and he follows the villain on the street.

The melon farmer is an honest farmer with a heavy burden on his family, and he can't support the old and young by growing grain alone, so he has opened up the land to grow watermelons to sell to subsidize the family.

After reading the biography, Li Mi took out the video recorder he was carrying.

After the consent of the crew, she recorded both of Jian Mingxi's scenes, focusing on Jian Mingxi alone.

I couldn't see any details when I acted with the group performer, and under the accurate focus of the video camera, Li Mi realized that Jian Mingxi's biography may have been brewing when he was in the crew.

In the first scene, the gangster stands almost at the far end of the line, and when he fights in a group, he does not rush forward, but fishes next to him, and the protagonist is almost the first to lie on the ground when he appears.

A few simple movements and expressions present an image of a timid and fearful person.

In the second scene, the wide straw hat covers most of his face, revealing only a mouth and chin.

He sat on the bench, looked up at the passers-by from time to time, and kept fiddling with the melons on the stall, putting the best ones outside.

Jian Mingxi finished eating the watermelon, and saw that Li Mi was silent for a long time after watching the video, and asked in a low voice, "Is it because I didn't act well today?" ”

"No," Li Mi looked up, relieved and unspeakably regretful, "You performed very well, although there are no shots, but the characters are all standing." ”

After getting Li Mi's affirmation, Jian Mingxi showed a light smile, "It's good that I didn't disappoint you." ”

"Mingxi, when you stand in front of the camera, do you believe that your character is alive?" Li Mi suddenly asked.

Jian Mingxi was stunned for a moment and then nodded, "Yes, I think the characters are alive in the play." ”

"What about the off-screen, do you still think they say that there is real life?"

Without waiting for Jian Mingxi to answer, Li Mi took the notebook with a short biography and continued, "Gangsters, it may be caused by the original family, it may also be because of life experiences, and even natural genes determine his antisocial personality. Melon farmers, maybe for a livelihood, maybe to help people farm, maybe just the stall owner has something to do to temporarily watch the stall for others. ”

Li Mi looked at Jian Mingxi's eyes and said word by word, "No matter what, when the play ends, the actor and the role will no longer be related." The characters return to the story, and the actors move on to life. ”
