"One shot at a time in the twenty-seventh scene...pop!"
Play along with the score.
"A!"
"Liren!"
Huang Zhizhong saw the surprise on He Xin's face and took two steps forward. Just as he was about to greet him, he stopped and turned around to answer the phone on his desk. At the same time, he pointed to the sofa next to him and made a gesture to sit down.
The telephones during filming are actually just decorations, and the ringtones need to be added after the foley is done in the post-production process. However, during filming, you have to act like you hear the ringing tone and then answer the phone.
He Xin smiled, walked over and sat down. His sitting posture was very standard, with his upper body straight and his hands on his knees. The script did not explain Yang Liren's experience before going to Whampoa Military Academy, but He Xin imagined that he should have been educated for a period of time
Military training. Especially after just receiving training, you will have conditioned reflexes when sitting, standing and walking.
"I'm Chu Cai...Okay, I get it!"
Huang Zhizhong put down the phone and walked back. He leaned on the side of the desk with a complacent look, looked down at He Xin who was sitting on the sofa and said: "Liren, the Beiyang warlords used three thousand graduates of Baoding Military Academy to
How many years have you ruled China?"
He Xin raised his head and glanced at him, his expression non-committal, but the drooped corners of his mouth and slightly raised eyebrows seemed to have a hint of ridicule.
Huang Zhizhong still said excitedly: "If our Whampoa Military Academy can have 10,000 graduates..."
While speaking, he specifically raised an index finger, his pride evident in his words: "What kind of situation will it be like in the future?"
It has to be said that Huang Zhizhong's performance is very sophisticated. There is only dialogue between the two people in the script. As for what the two people are doing when they are talking and how the actors need to perform, this all needs to be performed by the actors themselves.
At this time, he obviously had a plan. He had good news that he couldn't wait to share with his good friends. After he finished speaking, he remembered to record the content of the phone call. After all, he was now President Jiang's secretary, and he was doing what was assigned to him.
Work.
Compared to Huang Zhizhong's excitement, He Xin remained calm from beginning to end, but the subtle expression changes on his face faintly conveyed his inner disapproval or even dissatisfaction.
The scene was a two-camera scene, one with a panoramic view and one with a close-up, and Uncle Li's always cinematic lens clearly captured the close-ups of the subtle changes in the expression on He Xin's face reflecting the fluctuations in his heart.
He waited patiently for Huang Zhizhong to finish, and then asked calmly: "Is this your idea or the principal's idea?"
Huang Zhizhong, who was lying on the table writing furiously, suddenly became confused. His movements were not large, his posture of lying down and writing remained unchanged, he twisted his neck, and shot He Xin with two sharp eyes without warning.
Originally, He Xin had to raise his head slightly when he was standing, but now his eyes were level. Faced with his sudden sharp gaze, if someone didn't pay attention, he might subconsciously dodge, but as long as he dodges, this shot will be enough.
Wasted.
This is the difference between walking through it beforehand and shooting directly. If you walk through it beforehand, everyone will be mentally prepared. Shooting directly will test the ability of both parties to adapt to the situation. In a sense, everyone is fair. But
If one party comes prepared, the one who suffers may be the unprepared party.
But filming is all about coordination. The primary and secondary relationship between the characters in this scene destined He Xin to be the star of the show. This is the same as cross talk, compliments and teasers, but now the situation is completely reversed.
Yes, the small details including turning around to record the content of the phone call were all set by Huang Zhizhong in advance. He just wanted to give He Xin a head start.
Huang Zhizhong's cold eyes stared at him like a poisonous snake, and the close-up camera lens glared at his face. He Xin looked at Huang Zhizhong calmly, not to mention subconsciously dodging, without even blinking.
Blinking.
Seeing He Xin's gaze as calm as the deep water, Huang Zhizhong was a little unexpected, so that his subsequent lines were obviously lagging behind. He paused for a while before saying word by word: "I am an admirer of the principal!"
If this scene is regarded as an acting competition between the two, He Xinsheng will undoubtedly win in the first round!
Regarding Huang Zhizhong's obvious mistake, Uncle Li didn't call it quits. He was just a little disappointed. At first, when he saw the small detail that Huang Zhizhong designed to turn around and record the content of the phone call, it should be said that it was very clever. He couldn't help but secretly feel sorry for his little brother.
Cheers. But then he realized that such a clever design was actually digging a hole for He Xin.
It's a pity that instead of tricking others, I stepped in instead.
Uncle Li couldn't help but shook his head. He felt that he had overestimated the magnanimity of his little brother. He thought that he who always talked about "the drama is bigger than the sky" would at least not play tricks during filming. Now it seems that is not the case.
It is necessary to talk to him.
At this time of filming, since the director did not call to stop, the actors had no choice but to continue acting.
He Xin only looked away at this time and said with disdain in his tone: "Actually, this approach is not new. In the late period of the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom, Zeng Guofan knew that the Hunan Army could no longer be used, so he asked Li Hongzhang to train the Huai Army; after Li Hongzhang, he asked Yuan Shikai
Training at a small station. What’s the result..."
Having said this, he sighed slightly and turned his gaze again to Huang Zhizhong, who was still leaning over his desk, with soft eyes and even looking at him with a smile. He was inevitably a little frustrated and said: "It turns out that he is still showing off his temporary abilities.
, and it has not solved the fundamental problem. China is still a divided China, with wars and disasters, the world is turbulent, and conquests are endless!"
Huang Zhizhong finally recorded the content of the call, straightened up, put on the pen cap tightly, threw it casually on the desk, and said with a smile: "You are right! Liren, come here!"
As he said that, he gestured towards the reception area outside.
Huang Zhizhong casually took off the big cap on his head, while He Xin followed the military regulations, held the brim of the hat with both hands, took it off and solemnly placed it on the table in front of him.
"Liren, I hope you can take a closer look. Look at today's Huangpu. The Huai Army and the soldiers of the small station are definitely not the same. Our principal is better than Li Hongzhang and Yuan Shikai.
How many……"
To be honest, the character of Chu Cai is very limited. In the script, he is designed to be a fanatical admirer of President Jiang, who plays the role of "stand-in" and "spokesperson" for Lao Jiang in front of Yang Liren.
Speaking of Shi Wenzhong (who played Li Haifeng in "Latent") in the original version, He Xin has to apologize to Mr. Shi. Because of his intrusion, he actually played the sick, almost manic psychopath played by Mr. Shi.
Chu Cai was lost to Butterfly and replaced by Huang Zhizhong's version of Chu Cai.
Compared with the Chu Cai played by Teacher Shi Wenzhong, the priorities are just right. At this time, Huang Zhizhong's version of Chu Cai seemed to be more excited and fanatical. At the end, he waved his arms and the blue veins on his forehead were exposed, coupled with the funny little head on his head.
With separate heads, if Rendanhu is plastered all over the middle of the person, it really looks like someone in history.
Maybe he realized his mistake just now and wanted to win back a victory too much and wanted to show off too eagerly. So when he said this line, he danced and was extremely excited.
"Tsk!"
Uncle Li, who was staring at the monitor screen, frowned again. He was familiar with his little brother's performance style, and he knew very well that Huang Zhizhong was making an old habit again. As long as he tries to express his performance in a hurry, he will easily overdo it.
. Just like when he starred in "Infernal Affairs 3" with Director Chen, his performance there can be described as terrible, and it did not show his true level at all.
On the other hand, He Xin's originally straightened posture slightly relaxed, and he put his hands together on the table. His relaxed body language showed that he did not regard the excited Huang Zhizhong in front of him as a senior officer at this moment, but he was still the one he had grown up with.
A good friend for studying.
He looked at the other party and said sincerely: "I don't doubt what you said at all, but the biggest problem of the current national revolution is the lack of a political leader who can coordinate the interests of all parties!"
When he mentioned the words "coordination and unity", He Xin subconsciously tapped the table with his index finger to highlight the key points.
At this time, the close-up shot first showed Huang Zhizhong's ears, and then slowly stretched it, showing the upper part of his profile. His eyes were condensed, and he continued to stretch, and the whole face was close-up, silent...
He Xin let out a long breath, pushed the table with both hands and straightened his back and sat up straight. He looked up at Sun Wen's portrait on the wall and sighed: "After Mr. Zhongshan passed away, no one has been able to replace him... Chiang Kai-shek
Is that okay? Just rely on the three thousand disciples and seventy-two sages he has in his hands?"
This is the difference between Yang Liren and Chu Cai. Chu Cai is a follower of President Jiang and has a fanatical admiration for Lao Jiang; while Yang Liren has a personal worship of Lao Jiang, but more because he himself believes in this
communist party.
So when Chiang Kai-shek was defeated, he would not choose to commit suicide like Chu Cai, whose faith was shattered and his idol collapsed, but he would choose to continue fighting.
Huang Zhizhong listened, thought, and remained silent. As an elite of this era who was able to obtain twenty Geng grant scholarships to study abroad, he himself was good at thinking.
After a long time, he slowly said: "You made it clear!"
It was only at this moment that He Xin saw that he had his legs spread apart, his hands on his knees, his eyes fiercely staring at the table, and he warned: "As someone close to the principal, if you want to think about big problems...
"
Huang Zhizhong turned back suddenly, and He Xin also looked at him. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly, his eyebrows raised, and he squeezed out a smile and said: "If you don't want to have a big problem, can you talk to the principal?"
Huang Zhizhong's eyes lit up, his eyes really lit up. Before, he dug holes for others, and they responded calmly. Then during the face-to-face conversation between the two, no matter the speed of their lines, the changes in their expressions and body language, they all...
In line with the context and emotional changes of the characters, no flaws can be found at all, and even as an opponent, it is very easy to deal with it myself.
At this moment, his subconscious eyes were intense, and he blurted out the lines: "I read that right, I strongly recommend you to come to the school affairs department, that's what it means. When my head is hot, pour cold water on me."
What's interesting is that when Huang Zhizhong said this line, He Xin had already suppressed the smile on his face, lowered his eyelids, and his expression returned to his usual calm and calm expression.
"Card!"
The on-site executive director shouted.
At this time, Uncle Li came over from the next door with a walkie-talkie. Before he could speak, Huang Zhizhong raised his hand and said, "I have a problem with the paragraph just now."
While speaking, he also glanced at He Xin apologetically.
He Xin responded with a smile.
Although his girlfriend said something about King Yan before, He Xin felt that it was also very appropriate to apply to Huang Zhizhong at this time - "For those who like to pretend to be artists and conceited people, you have to calm them down first, and then they will
I don’t dare to show off my teeth in front of you.”
Uncle Li was not polite and said: "Not only the first part, but also the part where you are talking in the middle."
As soon as he was reminded, Huang Zhizhong immediately realized the problem and nodded quickly: "I understand."
For a good actor, the director doesn't have to bother with yelling at you. He just needs to point out the problem and the actor will naturally take the initiative to digest and adjust it.
"Um!"
Uncle Li responded, then changed his face, nodded to He Xin and said with a smile: "Xiao He, it was so good just now! Thank you for your hard work, want another one?"
"No problem, director!" He Xin grinned and nodded towards Teacher Huang who looked a little embarrassed.
