Chapter 1163: Filming (Part 2)
Qin Jue didn't get too close.
She silently retreated to the periphery of the crowd, listening to the back and forth conversations between Hou Chunyuan and Luo Ling in the performance area, as well as Kong Jun's "stuttering" from time to time. She repeatedly turned over certain pages of the simple bound booklet, which she printed and bound herself. The original work of "Shadow Link".
Magic reform is magic reform, but the screenwriter did not turn the script into a purely original one. As Liao Jingchen and Jiang Rong's contact with reality and online games became more and more in-depth, the plots of the adapted drama and the original work became more and more similar. Today's highlight of filming This is one of the classic scenes in the original work, a famous scene that book fans have chanted countless times.
With such a huge audience voice, how could the management miss this good opportunity to show off their feelings and build goodwill. And since the management made it clear that this part must be shot well and the actors must shine, the chief director Kong Jun naturally did not dare to neglect it.
That's the only good thing about the adaptation. The excellent parts include the original author's ready-made homework that you can copy. Qin Jue has read Kong Jun's storyboard. The quality is so high that even Jiang Shuming would nod and praise it when he came over, so she was not impressed at all. Don't worry about it being ruined - as long as the actors are good enough, this scene will definitely not fail.
Hou Chunyuan is a veteran actor, so you can rest assured that Luo Ling's condition was also brought up by Qin Jue in a short period of time in a rather extreme way. Not to mention how amazing it is, compared with the performance in the previous episodes, at least there is a qualitative change. , Qin Jue calmly and confidently waited for the final shooting results outside the scene.
She didn't think Luo Ling had any psychological problems. The little guy's tolerance was much stronger than imagined. And if it must be said, what Qin Jue did just now was not simply to guide Luo Ling into the role, she was actually helping him find his comfort zone.
Not to mention Luo Ling, any working person with three to five years of work experience should have had the experience of constantly repeating "tmd is so annoying, disgusting and angry" in his heart, but still putting on a gentle smile on the surface to deal with difficult customers. Since Luo Ling was able to give full play to his comfort zone effect when Liao Jingchen faced Mr. Wang and played the smooth and sophisticated "little adult" so well, Qin Jue believes that he must have sufficient material to output here.
It is not too difficult to recreate what you have experienced personally in front of the camera.
The only thing to note is that when re-engraving, he has to remember that he is Liao Jingchen, not Luo Ling.
Qin Jue admitted that she included some private parts, such as the sentence "Liao Jingchen's parents took him to the National Center for the Performing Arts when he was still young." In fact, this is the background setting of the characters in the original work, "Heart Shadow Link" It's not included in the script at all, so it can barely be counted as "extracurricular content."
However, not writing is inherently problematic.
Because the original novel has the sub-tag of "entertainment circle" at the beginning, both actor Liao Jingchen and newcomer actor Jiang Rong were born in a set environment, even if the author did not add "Liao Jingchen accidentally became interested in acting when he was young" and "Jiang Rong" "In the beginning, I actually chose to enter the entertainment industry in order to make money for my family as soon as possible." With these background information, readers of the novel will also assume that this is a story that takes place in the background of the entertainment industry, and it is normal for the male and female protagonists to be in related professions.
But after it was adapted into a drama, the screenwriter was lazy where he shouldn't be. The big frame of the entertainment industry has been changed to a university campus. Jiang Rong has no interest in acting. He was first dragged into the drama club by his roommate Gan Xiaoyu. This is reasonable. Liao Jingchen has no previous reasons and directly cuts to a close-up of the desk drawer. Through the camera, he used handwriting over the years to describe how much he wanted to act on stage but was repeatedly blocked. It looked miserable, but if you really look into why he is so persistent in acting, you will find that there is no reasonable explanation and explanation in the script. explain.
It is simply inexplicable, and it directly puts the setting that "Liao Jingchen just likes acting and wants to be an actor anyway" directly in the audience's face. One attitude stands out:
Just say whether you accept it or not. If you don’t accept it, don’t read it. Since we have read it, we will accept it by default. logic? Don't look into the logic, we won't explain it to you, so why be serious? It's really not necessary.
Qin Juewu has high blood pressure, but her excellent professionalism makes her not want the audience who are watching the drama to have high blood pressure. Therefore, even if she can't touch the script, she still has to pour the basic information that forms the character's psychological process into another actor. In Luo Ling's mind.
Regardless of whether it can be expressed and conveyed to the audience in the end, at least the act of prying open Luo Ling's head and stuffing the original settings inside will give Qin Jue some psychological comfort, which is better than nothing.
It doesn't hurt anyway. Qin Jue knew that Luo Ling had never read the original work. This kid has really fallen behind in his homework. It would be great if he could make up for it.
While paying attention to the movements in the performance area, and at the same time correlating this scene with the plot of the original work, time passed quickly due to Qin Jue's multitasking, and in the blink of an eye it was already three o'clock in the morning.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Hou Chunyuan walking out of the crowd. Qin Jue put away the things in his hands, knowing that the most difficult scenes were over.
"Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Hou. Go back and have a rest."
Qin Jue said and raised his hand in a certain direction. After all, Hou Chunyuan is the actor who plays an important supporting role after "Jingchen" and "Rong Rong". The life producer of the drama has a life assistant for him. Qin Jue helps He called his assistant over and asked him to take Hou Chunyuan back by car.
Now that all the scenes opposite Liao Hongjing are over, the only thing left to film is...
Qin Jue raised his legs and approached the performance area. I wonder if Luo Ling had given instructions tonight. There was no huddle of assistants on the sidelines standing by at all times. The place was much wider than before, which gave Qin Jue room to enter and exit at will.
"Huh? Great long shot."
Qin Jue smiled lightly. The cameraman in charge of the camera was currently filming the scene where Liao Jingchen quickly walked out of the study and returned to his original place. The heavy Steadicam equipment brings a sense of security. Luo Ling's performance was equally good. Covering the upper half of the face reveals a gentle fake smile, while covering the lower half of the face reveals a pair of irritated and anxious eyes.
"Stick!" Kong Jun gave the order. The cameraman paused for a few seconds, quickly stepped back, and unloaded equipment on the side. Others moved their positions slightly under the command of the executive director, and two fixed cameras were quickly set up. Perhaps because the last scene was about to be filmed, the atmosphere among the staff was unusually exciting.
What was incompatible with this atmosphere was Luo Ling, who was sitting on the chair. He was very quiet, with his eyelids drooped. He didn't look at anyone and allowed himself to be retouched by the makeup artist.
"Are you ready? All departments are ready!" Kong Jun was so busy that his voice was hoarse now. The other hand that was not raising the speaker was holding a can of energy drink.
Qin Jue cheered up.
The video that Luo Ling is currently filming is a part that she has not yet filmed. The content is: "Liao Jingchen hurriedly put on his glasses again and returned to the online game. After a while, the gaming glasses suddenly ran out of power, automatically deformed, and fell off his face. Liao Jingchen broke away. Game, caught the game launcher that turned into a bracelet, covered his entire face with his other hand, and couldn't stop breathing violently."
This is just a real-life part, plus Qin Jue’s online game part, the overall presentation or what the audience will see will be:
Liao Jingchen put on his glasses and "Jingchen" disconnected and reconnected. At the critical moment, the hero saved the beauty and cleared the scene with a big killing move. Then "Rongrong" turned her head and saw the expression on her face. Liao Jingchen was extremely depressed. Completely defeated, he leaned over and wanted to kiss her. However, the second before their lips touched, Liao Jingchen's gaming glasses were cleared of battery and shut down immediately.
The second accident was like a shackle, cuffing Liao Jingchen's loss of control, bringing back his reason, and at the same time making him filled with all kinds of emotions again.
The habit he had developed over the years made Liao Jingchen unable to help but reflect and condemn himself for acting before reason and making such an abnormal move. However, at the same time, his apologetic, regretful, ashamed, cowardly mood and " "Boom" his beating heart reminded him of one fact very clearly:
He was really tempted.
What Luo Ling wants to do more now is the short plot where Liao Jingchen was tempted after being forced to quit the game.
Logically speaking, he really needs to watch Qin Jue's performance here, because the part where "Jing Chen" excitedly hugs "Rong Rong" and leans in for a kiss and the part he is going to perform are one after another, and they are one after another. It's quite tight, but considering the crew's schedule, the same makeup, the same set, the same camera position, even the shameless Kong Jun can't break this scene into pieces - you know, the staff will also There is resentment.
Therefore, at this time, Luo Ling could only rely on his own imagination, and then regard the entire process of Liao Jingchen from putting on glasses to falling off as a complete and uninterrupted scene, and perform it directly from beginning to end.
This operation seemed to be embarrassing Luo Ling, but it actually gave him an advantage. After all, Qin Jue was watching from the side, and she, the movie star, was there to take care of the problems that Luo Ling couldn't handle.
She and Tang Nuo are not as good as the two main actors Luo Ling and Li Jingyu. They have relatively fewer scenes and announcements, so the crew has more freedom in the scene. What's more, the extras who played the other players in the unfilmed scene have all been " "Jing Chen" is finished, and then it will be just a matter of tossing for the two of them. It will be easy to shoot a few close-ups and close-up shots. Then we can take advantage of the green screen studio and freely adjust the lighting in post-production, and a climax emotional scene will be smoothly born. .
As his thoughts flowed, Luo Ling's chest rose violently in the viewfinder. During this period, Kong Jun told Luo Ling to just cover his face with his hands and gasp for air when he went to Luo Ling's dressing room to talk about the drama in the afternoon. However, Luo Ling's performance tonight was poor. Even Kong Jun could tell that it was unusual. At this moment, he saw Luo Ling's (or Liao Jingchen's) hand covering his face falling downwards like it was out of strength. Kong Jun hesitated for a second, but still didn't shout "Cut". .
Qin Jue raised his eyes, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised in a curve of surprise and relief.
Luo Ling took the initiative to add a scene. It was very short. Liao Jingchen in the camera put down his hand, his head was half tilted back, and his eyes were staring at the ceiling in a daze, wrapped in a strong obsession, and because of this Feeling sadness and pain due to unachievable obsessions, these complex emotions are like a melted pile of color, leaving only large areas of confusion.
Liao Jingchen's eyes gradually focused, and struggle and sorrow replaced confusion, making him appear to be alone and extremely helpless.
His brows furrowed slightly, and as his head moved from back to forward, he slowly and helplessly closed his eyes.
"……Card!"
Kong Jun suddenly came to his senses and gave the order.
The cameraman retreated, and Luo Ling's assistant would have rushed to greet him impatiently at this time. However, this time Chen Liang and the others could not find this person nearby, which made the scene a bit embarrassing.
Luo Ling did not let this embarrassment last too long. He opened his eyes, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare. He slowly put the bracelet prop on the coffee table, then stood up using the back of the chair. The whole process was not very fast. He looked obviously tired, but overall it looked normal.
Kong Jun felt relieved and quickly called someone to help Luo Ling clear the way out. Luo Ling slowly raised his head and looked around. His eyes passed Qin Jue twice before landing on the figure standing on the sidelines. After finally locking the target, he breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards her.
One step, two steps, and half a minute later the distance between Luo Ling and Qin Jue shortened to one or two meters, and they were able to hear each other clearly. Luo Ling showed a tired but happy smile and opened his mouth. He was about to say something, a few words of modesty or a frank request for praise. However, the change in mood directly loosened the tight string, as if it was activated. As if a collapse switch had been triggered, he suddenly lost strength under his feet. He stumbled while walking and fell forward to his knees in embarrassment.
Snapped!
Qin Jue's right hand grasped Luo Ling's arm, almost dragging it, and the strength of this part alone firmly fixed his whole body.
It was time to turn on the lights in the night theater, the temperature was quite high, and Qin Jue's long sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. The first thing Luo Ling saw through the messy bangs was her tight forearm with veins popping out.
Luo Ling was an only son and had no brothers, but at this moment he was tightly wrapped in an indescribable sense of security. Qin Jue was really like a generous and brave big brother, who would teach him, lead him, and protect him.
"Brother Qin..."
Luo Ling called out in a low voice, his voice weak. Before the last sound of the word "brother" could be finished, he suddenly curled up, one hand resting on the ground, trembling and turning his head to the side to retching.
Qin Jue sighed and handed over the mineral water and tissues in a familiar manner, not forgetting to unscrew the bottle cap to Luo Ling first.
The crew who were finishing their work not far away were frightened half to death by the unexpected situation here. Fortunately, Chen Liang and others rushed out from a corner in time to block them from the human wall and said, "Stay away." , otherwise the thin air will make it even more uncomfortable.”
Luo Lingjin is precious, and Canhua Entertainment will not let him hurt a single hair. Qin Jue was not surprised that Chen Liang's emergency response was professional and prompt. She paid attention to Luo Ling's situation. On the way, she glanced at the reflective miniature camera on the chest of one of the assistants, frowned and said nothing.
"Cough, cough! Huh..."
Luo Ling drank some water and wiped the saliva from his lips with a tissue. He suddenly felt like he was coming back to life.
"Does it feel good?" Qin Jue asked slowly.
Luo Ling opened his mouth, lowered his head and smiled.
"It's so tiring." He said in a squeamish tone, "But it's so refreshing. No wonder I'm addicted."
Acting, great!
I really like acting!
Qin Jing looked at those eyes that looked like stars, smiled helplessly and shook his head.
He recovered so quickly and started wagging his tail again.
"By the way, Brother Qin, I -"
Luo Ling spoke happily, but in the middle of his sentence, he saw Qin Jue's eyes dazzled by a reflection he was all too familiar with, and his words came to an abrupt end.
The corners of his raised mouth also froze in that arc.
"Yeah." Qin Jue hummed casually to show that she was listening.
"..." A large number of forgotten memories reoccupied Luo Ling's mind, squeezing out all his hard-won pure happiness. His eyes shrank, and he did not look back to see Chen Liang or the other three people in the distance. He was so familiar with the camera angles that he could almost guess how he and Qin Jue would appear in the same frame in their cameras.
"No, it's nothing."
Luo Ling's eyes flickered, he didn't dare to look at Qin Duo anymore, and he looked away calmly.
After another second, as if he had put on a mask, he put on a sweet and polite smile - just like Liao Jingchen in the performance area just now - and said with a polite, appropriate, neither unfamiliar nor intimate tone. :
"Thank you very much, Teacher Qin, for tonight. I never thought I could perform like this before."
Qin Jue stared at him.
"Well, keep up the good work." She said, "It's getting late, let's all rest as soon as possible."
After saying that, he stood up without giving Luo Ling a hand before standing up.
"Okay, Teacher Qin too, see you tomorrow."
Luo Ling smiled and stood up from the ground while responding. He raised his hand to push back his hair at the temples and lightly patted the dust on his costume. Although he looked a little embarrassed, his movements were very graceful, like a nobleman who accidentally fell into the slums. His movements were reserved and very different from ordinary people. of elegance.
Qin Jue watched his performance quietly.
"Then I'll go back first. Please be safe on the way, Teacher Qin. Good night." After a while, Luo Ling, who had taken care of himself, concluded appropriately.
"Yeah." Qin responded calmly.
They said goodbye, Luo Ling went back to the dressing room to change clothes, and Qin Jue took the car back to his residence.
"Abba, what's wrong?" It was a smart car that picked her up, and Mori Ran was the one controlling the smart car.
Qin Jue laughed.
"It's nothing." She leaned back in her chair lazily, "It just feels quite boring."
After a while, he said again: "That's all. The environment is like this, and everyone has his own destiny."
"Huh...?" Moriran made a confused sound, but didn't ask further.
The smart car drove into the distance, and its shadow gradually disappeared at the end of the road.
4700+, 6.16 and 6.17 updates.
Now Brother Jue: In such an environment, everyone has his or her own destiny.
Brother Jue in the future: I’m going to flip this broken chessboard of yours.
