I'm just an actor

After leaving Cheng Yu's room, Xu Rong walked toward the elevator while thinking about what Chen Mengmeng mentioned the day before yesterday about Zhang Yang transferring money through the crew.

The moment he heard the news, he immediately noticed something fishy.

Zhang Yang probably took the risk because Jin Fangfang was about to unload the goods and had no time to take care of the minutiae of the company.

But just like his reply to Chen Mengmeng, he had no intention of going into details.

30 is still within the range he can accept.

There is the consideration of "no one can judge without observing", but it is only a small part of the reason, and more is due to the longer-term plan.

He is ready to find a suitable opportunity to strike. He can reach out, but not excessively. Of course, the core premise is that Zhang Yang can continue to create greater value.

After returning to the room, Xu Rong just pushed open the door and heard a rapid "click" sound coming from the bedroom. Immediately afterwards, an energetic classmate Xiao Zhang came out wearing light blue pajamas, head tilted and hands behind his back: "you are back?"

"Well, why haven't you slept yet?" Xu Rong smiled, looking past her and circling around the bedroom, finally landing on the tightly closed computer on the table.

"Waiting for you to come back." Xiao Zhang laughed dryly twice and quickly changed the topic, "You go take a shower quickly. I'll show you something when you're done."

"it is good."

Xu Rong responded. While changing clothes, he noticed that Xiao Zhang had been patrolling near the bedroom door from beginning to end, like someone patrolling the territory.

He threw the clothes on the sofa casually and said as if unintentionally: "Xiao Zhang, I found that you like to watch mommy dramas on your computer recently. In fact, watching too much of that stuff is not good, it will lower your aesthetic taste. If you have that time, you might as well go shopping.”

"How can I not?" Xiao Zhang instinctively wanted to hold her neck and retort, but as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she suddenly realized that Teacher Xu was trying to trick her again, and her wide almond eyes softened visibly, "Actually, actually, it's not Not entirely, I just looked at it a little bit, but I also looked at it with a critical eye."

Afraid that Xu Rong wouldn't believe it, she finally nodded heavily: "Yes, criticism!"

She hasn't watched any mom dramas recently.

Then her behavior of always sitting in front of the computer needs a reasonable explanation.

Recently, especially after getting married, she has discovered more and more that "communication" is actually a university subject. It has no practical significance, but at certain times it can always have a magical effect.

When Xu Rong heard her abrupt retort and subsequent "reluctant" admission, he unexpectedly turned his head and looked at her. After a few seconds, the smile couldn't stop spreading on his face, and he said in surprise: "You guessed what I wanted to say?"

Classmate Xiao Zhang laughed "haha", gesturing with only a little space between his thumb and index finger, and said: "But the reaction is still a little slow, hahaha."

By the time Xu Rong took a shower, wiped her hair and entered the bedroom, classmate Xiao Zhang was already leaning on the bedside with an open notebook on her knees.

Seeing Xu Rong coming, classmate Xiao Zhang immediately became energetic, sat up straight and waved, "Teacher Xu, come here, come here."

"what's wrong?"

"You'll know when you see it."

Xu Rong looked at the mysterious expression on classmate Xiao Zhang's face, and while approaching her, she said, "Do you look down on yourself or me? Do you still need a video to cheer me up?"

"Ok?"

Student Xiao Zhang suddenly turned his head, and after two seconds of confusion, his expression suddenly showed a hint of joy: "Teacher Xu, something is wrong with you."

Xu Rong looked at her for a moment and asked, "How about we go to bed first?"

Classmate Xiao Zhang laughed and bumped him with his arm, saying, "Oh, I'm telling you something serious."

"Isn't sleeping a serious business?" Xu Rong said this, but did not take action immediately. Instead, he sat down next to Xiao Zhang, "What are you looking at?"

Classmate Xiao Zhang did not answer, but stretched out his hand to hit the space bar, and the computer screen immediately played the captured footage.

"Tuk-tuk."

Although it was just a gesture of raising her hand to knock on the door, Xu Rong immediately noticed something unusual, because the classmate Zhang in the play was completely different from her in reality, and this change was a change in temperament.

Xu Rong stared blankly at the computer screen. After a long while, he turned his head, stared at her blankly, and asked, "How did you do that?"

Classmate Xiao Zhang was very satisfied with the shock on Xu Rong's face, but she seemed to have anticipated the current situation, and said in a very calm tone: "What's the matter? Isn't this normal?"

"No, no, no, it's not ordinary at all. The sense of layering in your scene is very strong. The strong contrast between the concise body movements and the eyes highlights the character played by He Xiaoyu, and the weak but distinct physical expressions also add to the This scene leaves more room for imagination for this character." Xu Rong was not stingy with his compliments, "This is the most powerful, and being able to make the audience imagine is the best performance in itself."

"Really?" Xiao Zhang looked at Xu Rong who remained silent, encouragement almost flowing out of the corner of his eyes.

Vaguely, a little bit unfinished.

Looking at the corners of Xiao Zhang's mouth that couldn't help but turn up, Xu Rong smiled and closed the computer and put it on the bedside: "But have you ever thought about it, if I 'accidentally' see this material, this pussy will not Will you pretend to be more complete?"

Student Xiao Zhang couldn't hold it in any longer: "Teacher Xu, you are so annoying, hahaha."

From the scene just now, Xu Rong was very sure that Xiao Zhang had indeed learned the "self-feeling of the character's body" that he mentioned yesterday. To his expectation, Xiao Zhang was really very familiar with this method. Fit.

To be more precise, Gepai fits this method very well.

If I had to describe Gepai's performance training method in one sentence, it would probably be: a method that can instantly improve an actor's performance ability from zero to one hundred.

Of course, this is a relatively ideal state.

But the "self-feeling of the character's body" creates a shortcut to this ideal state.

But, how to explain it to Cheng Yu?

It can’t be said that Xiao Zhang’s talent happens to be very suitable for this method?

Most people's joys and sorrows are not the same. In a certain room in the same building, Song Yi spread a small word "big" on the bed, and his two bright eyes stared at the ceiling motionless. .

Although her artistic career and the word "success" are completely unrelated, she has never felt too lonely.

I am a student of Teacher Xu, and Sister Zhang is also Teacher Xu’s wife!

Several seniors in the theater often praised Yuan Yu's plays, saying that she could accept them no matter how good they were.

But after watching Sister Zhang's play this afternoon, a poem came to her mind out of nowhere.

A letter from the tide on the Qiantang River came, and today I know who I am!

It turns out that I am the only rookie.

After being "grown up" on the bed for a long time, at a certain moment, she suddenly turned over, picked up her cell phone, and found a phone number she had hardly contacted in the past.

Almost without thinking, he pressed the dial button on his phone.

Nearly ten seconds later, Feng Yuanzheng's gentle voice came from the phone: "Xiao Song, you haven't rested yet. Is there something wrong?"

The angry words that Song Yi had been holding in his heart for a long time reached his throat, and were suppressed by the sudden figure in his mind. He turned to ask in a relatively tactful tone: "Teacher Feng, I'm sorry to disturb you so late, yes, That's it, I have a question to ask you." Perhaps her tact was not tactful enough, so Feng Yuanzheng noticed her purpose, and the call suddenly fell into silence.

Feng Yuan is the deputy captain of the actors team and is nominally responsible for guiding the actors.

But Song Yi was Xu Rong's eldest disciple.

Perhaps he felt that it was a bit awkward to remain silent all the time, so the phone call came out again: "Xiao Song, have you encountered any difficulties recently?"

Song Yi shook his head: "No, I just feel like I can't act well."

"Why do you have this illusion? Have you never thought about why you can play the leading role as soon as you enter the door?" Feng Yuanzheng did not hesitate this time, "It's because your talent is really very good, otherwise you think you can play the leading role as soon as you enter the door." Why would Xu Yuan take you personally with his critical eye?"

Now Song Yi had something to say: "But every day he either asked me to endorse or practice my voice and body. He didn't teach me anything else. I still don't know how to act."

"Especially, especially today, Miss Zhang"

"That's because Xu Yuan has very high expectations for you!" Feng Yuanzheng completely understood the reason why Song Yi called him, and interrupted her without hesitation, "I can understand your mood and feelings. You have to believe that Xu Yuan is the same, if he says something you don’t like to hear, he really does it for your own good."

Song Yi held the phone and moved his mouth twice, but made no sound.

And Feng Yuanzheng seemed to have expected her silence, and continued: "The reason why I say this is not that standing and talking does not hurt my back, but because, Xu Yuan, I have been able to reach this day, and you have not experienced anything." We have all experienced it, and we have also encountered the difficulties you have encountered and the difficulties you have not encountered."

Song Yi let out a breath and whispered: "Teacher Feng, I, I"

She hesitated for a long time, but couldn't form a single word.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself." Feng Yuanzheng's voice became gentler, "By the way, do you have a computer there?"

Song Yi didn't know why Feng Yuanzheng suddenly asked about this, so he said: "Yes."

"I'll send you something interesting, take a look."

Song Yi put his phone on speakerphone and opened his computer's mailbox, only to find that Feng Yuanzheng had sent a video.

"Received yet?"

"received."

"Open it and take a look." Feng Yuanzheng said nothing.

Song Yi did not hesitate and clicked the "play" button immediately after the download was completed.

"Pay back the money!"

The sudden roar frightened her and she subconsciously shrank her shoulders, but when she saw clearly the young man wearing a military green coat with a fierce expression on the screen, she couldn't help but reveal two rows of white teeth after a moment of shock.

"Pay back the money!"

"Pay back the money!"

"Pay back the money!"

Feng Yuanzheng on the other end of the phone gradually realized something was wrong, why was it still being played on a loop?

And from the sound of it, it sounds like you’re having a hard time holding back your laughter?

He had to interrupt her joy and asked: "How do you feel now?"

Song Yi forgot that he was still on the phone with Feng Yuanzheng. When he heard the voice, he quickly turned off the video and asked, "Teacher Feng, what is this?"

The call fell silent again.

Feng Yuanzheng somewhat understood Xu Rong's feeling of powerlessness. Xiao Zhang looked careless, but he was actually very smart and had a high emotional intelligence. As for Xu Rong, this student, he was really stupid.

"This is a scene Xu Yuan shot in 04. If you take a closer look, he doesn't have any basic skills, not even the most basic abdominal breathing, and there is no light in his eyes. As you can imagine, it took eight years Him before?"

Feng Yuanzheng could vaguely sense Song Yi's mentality. When he first entered the hospital, he was considered to be extremely talented. He was trained intensively and played the leading role in the first year of admission. However, he failed to pass the review of the art committee.

The worst part is that the peers around her are too dazzling.

Song Yi now heard that Feng Yuan was encouraging her. She bulged her mouth and said, "Teacher Feng, that's not what I meant. It's like this. Can you please teach me acting? You don't know, Xiao Zhang My sister performed very well after using the method you taught me."

The call fell into silence again.

Feng Yuanzheng did not want to leave Renyi.

"Cough cough."

Feng Yuanzheng coughed twice and changed the topic: "Back to your question itself, it is actually a difference in philosophy. Xu Yuan taught you to lay the foundation for you to climb to the highest peak of performance. The results will be slow, but once it is achieved, Yes, you will immediately be qualified to win the Best Actress and Best Actress awards."

After a slight pause for a few seconds, Feng Yuanzheng said again: "There are some things that Xuyuan will not tell you, and it is not easy to tell you. In the eyes of many people, you are really lucky to be a student of Xuyuan. I It doesn’t mean that you can learn acting from him or get his care. Have you ever thought about why Xu Yuan is about the same age as you, but he can always accomplish what he wants to do, and he can always achieve success in his daily life? Very happy?"

"Many people now disdain to talk about emotional intelligence, and disdain to say things they are not happy to say or do things they are not happy to do. But in fact, it will eventually lead to a mess of life and work. In my opinion, emotional intelligence is neither groveling nor groveling. It’s not talking about people or ghosts. The essence of so-called emotional intelligence is the ability to make life and work more satisfying. I don’t know if you have noticed. Xu Yuan is really amazing in this regard. If you follow Xu Yuan, What you can learn is not only acting, but also how to behave and do things, as well as your planning and attitude towards life. Even if you learn half of it, you can benefit from it for life."

"Are you saying that the old method is better than showing it, but the skill is not visible?"

The call fell into silence very suddenly, but the difference was that this time it was Feng Yuanzheng who didn't know how to answer.

After the topic passed naturally over time, Feng Yuanzheng's voice sounded again on the phone: "You have to believe in yourself, and you have to believe in Xu Yuan."

"Do you have any other questions?"

"No, no more." Song Yi hung up the phone, put down the phone, and immediately felt as if he was listening to what you said.

The most important thing is that she was never taught how to act from beginning to end.

She had very few roles in "Beiping" and didn't even have a name. She was replaced by "a woman" in the script.

She sat absentmindedly for a while, and in a daze, she casually picked up the nearly brand-new notebook on the bedside.

On the first page of the script are written three sentences:

What is this character doing on the surface?

What is the essential action of this character in this scene?

What does this action mean to me? hypothesis

Looking at the contents of the notebook, she quickly tore off the first page, balled it up and threw it into the trash can as if she were a thief.

This is a very practical performance method she learned from the Internet, the core of which is "complete loyalty to physical action."

The advantage of the method is that it becomes stronger when it is strong.

The disadvantages are also obvious, and they are weak when they are weak. (End of chapter)
