After joining the group, Li Tang had a very regular schedule. He got up at six o'clock, ran a lap along Taihu Lake, the distance was not long, about three kilometers, then did a set of boxing, and then went upstairs to wash up.
In addition to keeping in shape, morning exercise is also more important because it can invigorate your spirit and help you start a good day. At least it will make you feel relaxed and happy for a few hours after exercise.
Usually when he finishes washing, Jia Yuling, the temporary assistant assigned to him by the crew, will knock on the door on time and deliver breakfast. The varieties are basically the same. For example, today it’s xiaolongbao, fried dough sticks, and tofu puffs, and tomorrow it might be sandwiches, milk, wontons, noodles, and the like.
Fortunately, Li Tang himself is not very materialistic, and he does not have high requirements for breakfast. He basically eats whatever he can, as long as he can eat enough. After all, martial arts training every morning consumes a lot of energy.
While he was having breakfast, Jia Yuling started to help him clean up the house and then organize the things he needed to bring with him, such as scripts, water bottles, towels, sunscreen, cigarette lighters, etc. Like most assistants, she always carries a big bag like a treasure chest. Sometimes she even has things that Li Tang himself wouldn't expect.
After getting along with each other for a few days, he had long forgotten his plan to change his assistant. As Jia Yuling introduced herself at the beginning, she was really capable. More importantly, this little girl spoke nicely and always said " "I accidentally scratched Li Tang's itch, which made him feel very happy.
For example, Jia Yuling was packing her things and said with a smile: "Brother, the performance you and Xu Qingjie performed yesterday was so great. Xu Qingjie's figure and demeanor made me dumbfounded. Brother Juan, you're stupid. He doesn't fall behind at all, he's very natural. At first glance, he doesn't seem like a good person, but he just makes people hate him. Hey, brother, do you have any tips for acting? "
This is the cleverness of Jia Yuling. She will never mention the unpleasant things that happened after Shao Bin arrived. On the surface, she seems to be Xu Qing's little crush, but in fact, Xu Qing secretly praises Li Tang's acting skills, and at the same time, she uses the method of asking for advice to praise him, giving him a sense of accomplishment in being a good teacher.
To be honest, no matter how humble and cautious a person is, if he hears too many good words, he will inevitably become complacent.
Sure enough, Li Tang smiled and said, "Didn't you also study acting for two years? Don't you know?"
"Hey, brother, I'm not afraid of being embarrassed when I say it. When I was young, I only learned some superficial things and didn't really use them much. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been flunked in the first test of this year's art exam."
The courage to expose your shortcomings is also an advantage, which can make people relax their vigilance and make it easier for them to accept you.
"There is actually no secret to acting. To put it bluntly, you have to work hard, understand the character with your heart, and learn to feel the character's heart carefully. In this way, you can well immerse yourself in the character's emotions, and then express them."
Jia Yuling listened very carefully and muttered words, trying hard to memorize Li Tang's words. She originally applied for an extra job, partly to make a living, but also to accumulate her own acting experience and prepare for next year's art exam.
Now that she can work as an assistant next to Li Tang, of course she is not willing to give up any opportunity to ask for advice. You should know that one-on-one acting tutoring classes nowadays often cost hundreds or even thousands per class. She can study with Li Tang and not only don't have to spend money but also make money. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"Brother, what should I do if I don't have enough performance ability?" Jia Yuling asked again after thinking.
In fact, most people have the problem of insufficient expressiveness. They are thinking very well in their minds and can feel the emotions of the characters, but they just can't express them.
To put it bluntly, I just don’t have enough talent.
Li Tang thought for a while and said: "You have to learn to experience this. Maybe at the beginning you feel that you are far away from the character, or if you are not expressive enough, you need to understand the character more and shape the character. This process may be a bit long, you have to Slowly integrate yourself into the character, pour your emotions into it, turn yourself into the character, and let the character become a part of your body. Then once you enter the scene, your performance will be as natural as nature."
Li Tang's words can be summed up as the former is an expressionist and the latter is an experientialist. They are two different performance genres and methods, it’s up to you to grasp them.
To put it simply, if you have received certain professional performance training and have strong expressiveness, then most of you will follow the expressionist approach.
On the contrary, if you have become a monk halfway and have not received systematic performance training, or your expressiveness is insufficient, then you should be honest, step by step, spend all your efforts to dig out the characters, and follow the path of the experiential school.
Jia Yuling couldn't remember it, so she quickly took out a small notebook from her bag and wrote it down. Upon seeing this, Li Tang went out of his way to help her expand and add a few words, so he could be a teacher!
Part of what he said is what the teacher said when he was in school, and part of it is the performance experience he has accumulated in his two lifetimes.
If Jia Yuling is really talented, these will benefit her a lot. But if she is not talented enough, how much it will help her depends on how much she can understand it, or how much effort she can put in.
Li Tangyuan had seen such an example when he was in school. There was a classmate named Liao Fan in his class who was a second-generation actor. His father was the dean of Jiangxi People's Art. He was similar to Lou Jicheng and was a highly respected veteran actor in the industry. .
This classmate Liao Fan was admitted to the theater in those years, and his situation was probably similar to that of Li Tang. He was suspected of entering through the back door. He looks average and has limited talent, but he works extremely hard and follows the path of the experiential school. Sometimes I get too involved in the drama, and I become a little bit intimidating.
There will always be rewards for hard work. I remember that when their class performed their graduation drama, Liao Fan's performance won the full house's applause. It also made him stand out from many classmates and had the opportunity to star in a popular TV series at the time, "Love to the End."
Li Tang could see that Jia Yuling also worked hard, otherwise she would not be able to do such a good job as an assistant, and she would always ask him for advice in a roundabout way.
The only difference between Jia Yuling and Liao Fan is that she is a farmer's daughter and the other plays the second generation. From the beginning, Jia Yuling lost at the starting line. Out of sympathy for the weak and gratitude for her hard work, Li Tang doesn't mind teaching her as much as he can. He hopes she can get into her favorite Chinese opera next year.
After breakfast, without him having to do anything, Jia Yuling came over and quickly cleaned up, then carried a big bag and a folding canvas chair. After Li Tang rinsed his mouth and wiped his face, he followed Li Tang out.
The daily training time starts at eight o'clock. Most people are very conscious and come to the training ground ten or twenty minutes in advance to warm up under the guidance of Wu Xing.
Warm-up is very important. If the warm-up is not sufficient, if you accidentally get injured during training, your role may be ruined, so no one dares to be careless.
Li Tang likes to stand behind Xu Qing to warm up. This sister is wearing a white sportswear. Her body is really flexible. Especially when she leans over, her peach butt wrapped in tight sports pants is particularly pleasing to the eye.
Until eight o'clock, everyone gathered in groups to practice tricks. Everyone looked at each other in a tacit understanding, and sure enough, the guy who just came to report yesterday did not show up at the training ground.
But at this moment, everyone didn't care, and even had some secret joy. After all, everyone practiced in their own way, and once the protagonist didn't perform well, it would be their turn to be the supporting actors.
It wasn't until about half past nine that the man arrived late.
At the beginning, of course, I started with the most basic pace training, but this guy was impatient to learn this.
"Don't use these useless tricks, just use tricks."
Wu Xing was in a bit of a dilemma, but he was the leading male after all, so he had to bite the bullet and teach him the tricks.
It has to be said that Zhang Jizhong chose Shao Bin to play the role of Linghu Chong after systematic consideration. On the one hand, it was because he was famous at the time and received a lot of attention. In addition, Shao Bin is an athlete, and his foundation is still there. His body flexibility and coordination are very strong, and he can practice the moves in a decent manner, no worse than those beginners who have practiced for five days.
Of course, Shao Bin was also very proud. Feeling the surprised looks from around him, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
Look, this is my capital, and you can’t learn it.
"good!"
The sudden cheers interrupted his happy thoughts, and he looked towards the place where the cheers came from with some dissatisfaction.
I saw Li Tang waving his long sword there, stabbing, chopping, teasing, hitting, and hanging. He performed a set of sword skills that were agile, fast, and elegant. Xu Qing, Miao Yiyi, Chen Lifeng, and Wei were watching on the sidelines. Teacher Zi, Teacher Tumen and others all clapped their hands and applauded.
This made Shao Bin feel unhappy. According to his opinion, as the biggest star in the crew and the male lead with the most important role, when he came to the crew, it would definitely be a scene where everyone was looking forward to it and everyone was fawning over him.
But the reality is completely different. From yesterday to now, he has been upstaged by Li Tang again and again.
Go mad at Li Tang, he really doesn't dare. Obviously Li Tang is not a soft persimmon with no background, no connections, and no company. When he won the Huabiao Award for Outstanding Actor last year, he also won the Huabiao Film Newcomer Award; last year he was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, and he was also nominated.
In addition, the scene of Li Tang and director Zhang Yimou walking on the red carpet chatting and laughing last year is still vivid in his mind, and he also heard that Li Tang has a pretty good relationship with producer Zhang Jizhong, and Lin Pingzhi, the second male lead, It was also appointed by Zhang Dabeard.
If we talk about units, then Shao Bin is even less confident. The Beijing Television Arts Center where he works is not at the same level as the Shanghai Drama Center, formerly known as Shanghai People's Art Center, in terms of administrative level, artistic contribution, and influence.
When the mind is confused, the movements of the hands become slow or even deformed.
Originally, this move was well practiced, but because his movements were slow, the martial artist who was doing the move with him couldn't stop him, and his fist went straight to his face.
"Hey, Teacher Shao, be careful..."
Brother Wu Xing shouted, unable to hold back the punch he punched, and quickly turned to the side, but the fist still grazed Shao Bin's face.
Shao Bin suddenly felt a burning pain on his face, and the anger that had no place to vent suddenly found an outlet.
"Ouch!"
He covered his face and shouted at the martial arts brother: "You are so sick! Do you know how to fight? If not, get out!"
Brother Wu Xing was also panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to apologize: "Teacher Shao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was careless..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a "Get out!"
Then came a big foot.
The Wu Xing brothers had no defense. They were kicked in the chest and knocked to the ground.
First update, please double the monthly ticket!
