From a professional villain to an all-around superstar

Chapter 16 "The Big Man"

The play that was supposed to take half a day ended in just over an hour because of Ye Chen's outstanding performance.

Director Ding was also in a good mood. Known as the Iron Rooster, he specially invited several of the leading actors to have a meal at a nearby restaurant.

The other staff members and extras also had a half-day break thanks to Ye Chen's help.

In the afternoon, shooting continued.

There are not many scenes in this play, and it mainly takes place in the interrogation room and the small room where the kidnapping is held.

Several exterior scenes are scenes of capturing Hua Zi, as well as scenes of Hua Zi meeting his girlfriend.

I took some outdoor shots in the afternoon.

Ye Chen's performance is still outstanding.

In one afternoon, the scenes of arresting Hua Zi and Hua Zi meeting his girlfriend, which were originally filmed in two days, were all filmed.

On the set, Ye Chen was not like other big stars who got into the nanny's car directly after the show, but kept busy with the staff.

After a day of shooting, everyone had a deeper understanding of Ye Chen.

Almost everyone on the set fell in love with this handsome, talented, and hard-working young man.

The two movie kings Liu Hua and Liu Ye became increasingly close during their scenes with Ye Chen.

Even the two of them have become brothers with Ye Chen.

The actresses on the set even fell in love with this handsome and good-natured young man.

As for the supporting cast, they all regarded Ye Chen as a role model.

Ye Chen was a walk-on player before, and he became the second male lead so quickly. They felt that they seemed to have hope. As long as the opportunity came, they could reach the top one day.

Although Ye Chen's acting skills have been recognized by everyone, Ye Chen has never regarded himself as a star.

In addition to filming, Ye Chen enthusiastically helped the cameraman carry the machine and the lighting engineer with the lighting, without any airs of a star.

Under his leadership, both the staff and actors on the set were full of enthusiasm.

Ye Chen also quickly gained everyone's approval. From the director, to the leading actor, to the staff, everyone was full of praise when they mentioned Ye Chen.

After two months of filming, the whole drama is coming to an end.

At the beginning, many people thought that Ye Chen's help was just for three minutes.

After all, Ye Chen has now been recognized by the director and two movie stars, and has stepped into the threshold of stardom. Who would do such a rough job?

But what people didn't expect was that Ye Chen had been helping as enthusiastically as ever in the past two months without any celebrity airs.

Of course, Ye Chen gained a lot. From the visual perspective of the staff, he also learned a lot from the two best actors.

"Xiao Chen, come over and have a chat." Director Ding called Ye Chen over who was busy.

"What's wrong, Director Ding?"

Director Ding smiled and said: "I have been a director for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen a hard-working young man like you. He has good acting skills and can endure hardships. Young people like you are rare in the film and television industry these days."

Ye Chen scratched his head and took the tea handed over by Director Ding.

"Director Ding, I am a minor player. In fact, I can learn a lot in the process of helping. After all, I am young and I will not be tired if I work more."

Director Ding nodded, and looked at Ye Chen with a little more appreciation.

Ye Chen possesses all the qualities of an excellent actor.

He is handsome, has good acting skills, is hard-working, and is humble and low-key.

The future achievements of such a young man will definitely not be lower. Director Ding has even seen a rising actor.

Director Ding smiled and said, "Xiaochen, what are your plans after filming this movie?"

Ye Chen shook his head: "It depends on the company's arrangements, but after all, I am not well-known yet. That is, Director Ding, if you give me the opportunity to shoot the second male lead, I should probably shoot some supporting roles in the future."

Director Ding said: "Your acting skills are such a waste of money to play those small roles. I have a friend who is filming a movie "Big Shot", which happens to be short of a number two villain, but many actors have already targeted this role. , you may have to compete, but I believe in your strength."

Ye Chen's eyes lit up when he heard Director Ding's words?
The movie "Big Shot" was also a movie Ye Chen watched in his previous life.

Zhao Tai, the second male in the film, is a very classic villain.

If he wins this role, it will definitely be a huge boost to his popularity.

As for competition, Ye Chen is not afraid at all.

As long as the competition is fair and there are no tricks, he has god-level villain acting skills. When he plays the villain Ye Chen, he believes that no one in the entire film and television industry can beat him.

"Director Ding, thank you for always supporting me. If it weren't for you, I might still be a sidekick now."

Ding Xu shook his head: "You relied on your acting skills to gain opportunities for yourself. Xiaochen, as a director, I have seen many actors. At your age, no matter your appearance, acting skills, character and professionalism, , you are the best I have ever seen. I believe it won’t be long before you shine. I am very optimistic about you..."

Ye Chen nodded humbly: "Director Ding, you praise me so much. I still have a lot to learn."

In Ye Chen's heart, he was very grateful to Director Ding.

For him, Ding Xu did not hesitate to challenge the investors, and even gave up the actor Wang Qianyuan, which moved Ye Chen very much.

Of course, the reason why Director Ding helped Ye Chen so much was because of Ye Chen's investment value.

Director Ding saw Ye Chen's talent in his eyes.

He is a piece of rough jade. As long as he is polished a little, he will become a piece of beautiful jade that will amaze the entire film and television industry.

Therefore, Ding Xu's investment in Ye Chen is definitely worth it.

Director Ding smiled and said, "Okay, we have one last scene. After the performance, I will introduce you to audition."

Ye Chen nodded and went to the dressing room to change clothes.

According to the script, this scene is about Ye Chen meeting his mother after being sentenced to death.

This scene is completely different from the previous one.

Now Hua Zi has become a death row prisoner and met his old mother before he died.

Hua Zi's previous roles were all arrogant and domineering, but now he has to show the softer side of Hua Zi. This change in emotion is a great test of Ye Chen's acting skills.

Director Ding announced with a smile: "Our entire film has been filmed. As long as this last scene is successfully completed today, our entire film can be completed."

After hearing what Director Ding said, everyone clapped excitedly, and some even screamed.

But everyone's eyes quickly focused on Ye Chen.

This drama was originally supposed to be filmed for two months, but it will be completed in just one month. The fact that the drama can end so quickly is all due to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen's acting skills played a vital role in promoting the entire plot.

It is precisely because of Ye Chen's performance that many shots that take a day are often completed in a few hours.

Even the best actor Liu Hua couldn't help but lament that in all his years of filming, this was the least NG he had ever experienced.

Everyone is also looking forward to the last performance.

Everyone wants to know how Ye Chen brings out the softer side of the gangster Huazi!
