The altar was set up, with the three animal offerings placed on it. Minghua followed the crowd to worship the gods, and after that, they began to arrange the place.
In order to catch up with the schedule, filming started on the same day. Director Yi Yunsheng first asked the male and female protagonists to play opposite each other; in the smoke of the war, the two looked at each other from a distance, as if they were cut off from everything in the outside world, only each other. When the husband collapsed, the wife burst into tears.
There are no lines in this scene, but it makes people cry involuntarily; all emotions are reflected in the eyes of the two actors.
"Pass."
Director Yi Yunsheng raised his hand, and the staff next to him stopped recording. Director Yi stood up and walked to the two leading actors, gave them a thumbs up, and then applauded.
"It's wonderful, the acting is very good."
"Bah bang bang."
Applause broke out one after another from the crew.
"Thank you, Director Yi, for your affirmation. I will continue to work hard on filming and try not to waste film." The male lead, a young man in his early thirties, smiled and thanked Yi Yunsheng after hearing Yi Yunsheng's words.
"That's good. I hope other actors in our group will also learn from Gong Chen."
"That's for sure, and we will do a good job in filming." As for learning from Gong Chen, forget it. Many of them are actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan who want to return to the mainland for development; acting skills are online, and what they lack is just an opportunity. .
Minghua said nothing, silently taking the towel handed over by Xiao Chen and wiping the tears on her face.
Xiao Chen handed her another glass of water, "Warm water, drink it soon; your performance just now was so wonderful that even a person who doesn't know acting makes me want to cry when I watch it; your expressions are well mastered, and it's good to cry." Of course! Tears come whenever you want."
When Minghua glanced at her, she thought he was taunting her.
"What this comrade said is very true. Comrade Xiao's crying scene is natural, and he can control his emotions and expressions better than many veteran actors. Speaking of which, Comrade Xiao is still a college student. He just entered this industry and filmed a movie. His acting skills are so good. , I wonder which master I learned from?" Director Yi clapped his hands and smiled at Minghua.
"I know, I know." Gong Chen said, and everyone turned to look at him. Gong Chen smiled at Minghua, with unclear meaning in his eyes, "I also applied for the role in "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea", but unfortunately, in the end, The director didn't take notice of it; although I didn't get to participate in the show, after the TV series was aired, I checked it out and inquired about it."
"Comrade Xiao studied at the Film Academy and studied under Master Tian Shao. Many people present should know the life of Master Tian Shao. He is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, singing, and acting. Comrade Xiao is a disciple of Master Tian Shao. No wonder he has good acting skills. so good."
Comrades Xu Mingzhan, Xiao Chen, and Ning looked at Gong Chen with different eyes.
Gong Chen was unaware and continued: "I heard that Master Tian Shao was sent down a long time ago. I wonder if he is in good health? Master Tian Shao is my idol. I will definitely visit him if I have the chance."
"Let's talk about it when you have a chance. Thank you for investigating my matter so clearly and for educating everyone." Minghua mocked unhurriedly.
Gong Chen glanced at her and smiled, "Yes! You have to have a chance."
None of the people present are fools. Is it okay to just say "I'll definitely visit you if I have the chance"? If Minghua was a thin-skinned person, she might have agreed to the introduction.
Fortunately, there is no pretentiousness in the entertainment industry of later generations, and rumors are rare; otherwise, Minghua's rude reply would have earned her the reputation of disrespecting her predecessors.
"It turns out to be Master Tian Shao. Comrade Xiao is so lucky! Master Tian Shao stopped accepting disciples in his early years. Unexpectedly, he wanted to accept disciples when he got older. I also met Master Tian Shao back then. His grace and demeanor were really extraordinary. The average person can compare with him." Director Yi was full of praise, as if he admired Tian Shao very much, "Comrade Xiao, let's chat if you have time."
"Comrade Xiao, I am Qian Yanru, the male and female lead political commissar in this drama." The person who came out to ask was a middle-aged gay man with half-white hair.
"Hello, Senior Qian, my name is Xiao Minghua." Minghua was grateful that someone was willing to come out to smooth things over.
Yi Yunsheng blatantly asked her to chat. Normally he wouldn't do this. What's more, in this circle of muddy water, if she agreed, she would be blamed for it, and she couldn't clean it up even if she wanted to. kind.
Yi Yunsheng accidentally glanced at Qian Yanru, narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not speak again.
"Take a rest." Qian Yanru casually put the stool next to him a foot away.
"Thank you." He walked up and sat down. He was indeed a little tired. When acting, the mental state is highly concentrated. It is normal for people to feel tired once they relax.
Everyone gathered around, whether they knew Tian Shao or had never heard of Tian Shao; since he could be so praised by Gong Chen, he must have a certain status.
There was a lot of noise and bustle around Minghua, but Gong Chen was left alone. Director Yi patted Gong Chen on the shoulder, "Don't think too much, Comrade Xiao is still a lesbian who has just stepped out of society, so be more tolerant."
The seemingly partial words touched the chord in Gong Chen's heart; his eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything else.
Everyone gathered around Minghua and asked each other questions. They didn't disperse until Director Yi shouted that it was time to film the next scene.
Eleven scenes were filmed in one day. Regardless of Gong Chen, his performance attitude during filming was very dedicated. With his cooperation, the filming progress was very fast.
In the evening, a group of people walked back together; Minghua and Xiao Chen were talking, and Qian Yanru slowed down a few steps and walked side by side with her.
Minghua looked up in confusion, but heard Qian Yanru say in a normal voice: "Master Tian Shao, are you okay?"
"..." Minghua didn't respond. Qian Yanru lowered his voice and said, "Be careful with Yi Yunsheng and don't get too close to him."
After saying that, Qian Yanru walked a few steps and returned to the team. The person who was close to Qian Yanru whispered something to him. Qian Yanru nodded and the two of them walked, talking and laughing. It seemed that he was not the person who came to remind me just now.
Xiao Chen grabbed Minghua's hand, "What does he mean? Is there something wrong with Yi Yunsheng?"
Xu Mingzhan frowned and said, "Men know men best. Yi Yunsheng looked at Minghua and something was wrong. Mr. Qian must have noticed it and heard that Minghua was a student of Teacher Tian Shao, so he warned her."
"Is that so?" Xiao Chen's eyes turned cold, and he turned to look at Minghua, his eyes softened again, "Minghua, you made us inseparable before, did you know that Yi Yunsheng has that kind of thoughts about you? ?”
Minghua nodded slightly. Xu Mingzhan didn't know whether he should be happy for Minghua's keenness or feel sorry for her. It is not easy for a girl to stay calm when encountering things. Strong girls are all hardened, and no one can Born to be strong.
"So bold." Xiao Chen bit his back teeth, "No wonder I think he is weird. Compared with Director Xu Long, he is far behind."
"Don't talk nonsense. Director Xu Long is highly respected in the business world and his character is naturally good. Can someone named Yi compare with him?" Comrade Ning couldn't help but complain, "You treat us like dead people. How dare you? Dare to tell Minghua, 'Let's chat when we have time'; don't let me seize the opportunity to interrupt his legs."
