After watching the replay, Qin Chuan and Li Lianjie exchanged compliments and touched up their makeup in preparation for filming the next scene.
This scene is a big one, involving dozens of actors and being divided into three battlefields.
One is from Zhao Huaian and Yuhuatian, the other is from Xichang Stall, and the other is from Zhao Huaian's two brothers.
Fighting is going on in all three battlefields.
When Qin Chuan was touching up his makeup, he discovered that the stall owner from Xichang had also come over to touch up his makeup. This character was wearing a mask the whole time and had contact lenses in his eyes.
After joining the group for more than half a month, it was the first time that he saw the other party's true appearance.
After the other party took off the mask, he looked familiar.
Seeing Qin Chuan staring at him, the other party smiled and said, "Hello, I am Fan Shaohuang."
It turned out to be King Li.
Qin Chuan remembered it. Speaking of which, this actor was also an old actor. He had good resources in the past few years and had played many leading roles, such as Xu Zhu in Tian Long Ba Bu and the movie King of Power.
Especially Li Wang, it was very exciting and refreshed his understanding of Kung Fu movies.
King Li's hand tendons were broken by someone, but he could still pull them out and tie them by himself.
Pull out the enemy's intestines and strangle him to death.
However, Fan Shaohuang has been in a bit of trouble in recent years. His flowering period has passed and he can only play supporting roles here and there.
If Qin Chuan remembered correctly, in this drama, Fan Shaohuang could only take off his mask and show his face once in the death scene.
"Hello, I'm Qin Chuan."
"Nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you."
After a brief greeting, the two said nothing more. They didn't have many scenes opposite each other, only a few in total.
In the next few days, the crew was filming the fight scene on the boat.
After the filming is completed, the location will be changed.
This time it was in the desert.
On the set, Li Yuchun was in high spirits and said, "It's finally my turn to appear."
Qin Chuan encouraged: "Don't be too nervous, just treat it like usual rehearsals."
The two have rehearsed several times, and he knows Li Yuchun's level very well.
It’s just that I’m not suitable for acting, I don’t have the talent.
Next to the two of them, Long Danni, the president of Tianyu Media, was present. Today was Li Yuchun's first show. She had to come over to see how it was and whether it was suitable for eating this bowl of rice.
Patting Li Yuchun on the shoulder, she said: "It's your first time acting, it doesn't matter if you make mistakes."
"Well, Mr. Long, I will work hard."
In fact, this is not Li Yuchun's first time acting. In 2006, the top Super Girls of their generation all starred in a TV series together.
It's just that there's no fire.
Singing and acting, she really wants to follow the path of an actress.
With her current status and popularity, it is difficult for her to improve as a singer. Only by trying to open up her career as an actor can she reach a higher level.
If you look at Qin Chuan specifically, you will know that half of the reason why he is so famous is because of his actor.
"Go ahead."
"Mr. Long, I'm going too."
Qin Chuan and Li Yuchun waited.
The scene of this scene was in the desert, and the crew set up a Dragon Gate Inn.
The old version of Longmen Inn burned down after more than ten years of filming. This time it was rebuilt.
The two waited for more than ten minutes, and soon it was their turn to play.
"Is there anyone?"
"Open the door!"
"It's windy and sandy outside, it's almost feeding the sand."
Qin Chuan said a few words according to the lines. Soon, the door of the inn opened, and two groups of people inside were at war with each other.
Li Yuchun disguised herself as a man, took off her veil, and said, "I've already come in. Is there anyone who can talk?"
Behind her, Qin Chuan also pulled off the veil blocking the sand and looked at the scene nervously.
This time, he plays Feng Li Dao.
In this play, he needs one person to play two roles, one of which is the Jianghu man Fengli Dao.
Although they use the same face, anyone with a discerning eye can see the difference between the two characters. Yu Huatian is feminine and cold.
Fengli Dao is wretched, ordinary, and his skin is a bit darker.
"Why is the Governor here?"
"Maybe it's just similar. I'll give him a try."
There are two cameras in one scene, and the scene lasts for more than three minutes, one shot to the end.
Qin Chuan and Li Yuchun didn't have many words. Most of them were the Tatar woman played by Fan Xiaoxuan communicating with the stall owner of the West Factory.
After the last word fell, the director shouted "Ka".
At the first moment, Li Yuchun ran to the monitor to watch the replay. Everyone was confused about such a long shot, so they all gathered around.
Only Qin Chuan didn't watch much. He took the coat from the assistant, sat on his own rest chair, lit a cigarette, and read the next Feng Li Dao script.
He doesn't have many lines, so the performance of this scene isn't too difficult, and he probably knows what he's doing.
In front of the monitor, Li Yuchun quickly watched the replay, feeling mixed in his heart.
She felt that her performance was good, but when she looked closely at Qin Chuan next to her, she suddenly lost confidence.
The scene was a hodgepodge, with four people taking turns talking: the Tatars, the Xichang people, the inn people, as well as her and Feng Li Dao.
While one of them is talking, the others are silent. If you look carefully, you can see that Qin Chuan didn't speak a word most of the time, but the expression on his face never broke. When listening to what others said, he would be either shocked, flattering, or smiling apologetically.
Her stooped waist has never been stretched out, and she looks like a little person.
There is such a huge gap between her and her previous role as Factory Gong Yu Huatian. I almost thought it was played by two people.
This acting skill is definitely the best among singers, bar none.
"What do you think of Chunchun?"
On Qin Chuan's side, Long Danni came over at some point.
She also watched the replay, and even stood in front of the monitor during the filming, and asked Mr. Xu for his opinion, but the other person was an old man, and his words were vague, and it was as if he had not said anything at all.
"Not suitable for filming costume dramas." Qin Chuan gave his own evaluation.
Costume dramas should be the best dramas in film and television dramas. Many times the focus and attention of the audience are on the storyline and appearance, and the requirements for the actors' acting skills are minimal.
As a main actor, you can have average acting skills, but you can't have average looks.
To put it simply, it’s a costume drama that competes with looks.
If you don’t have good looks, no matter how good your acting skills are, it’s useless.
Li Yuchun is not a beauty type person. To be honest, her foundation is just like that. Even with the help of makeup technology, headgear, wigs, and costumes, her appearance is still in her seventies.
Comparing the weekly news will show how big the gap is.
Zhou Xun also disguises herself as a man in this drama, but she looks very handsome, her facial features are very photogenic, and her brows reveal a heroic spirit.
Also playing a female role is Su Huirong, played by Fan Xiaoxuan. She looks good in ancient costume, has a good figure, a beautiful face, and a charming eyebrow.
Gui Lunmei plays a Tatar with dark skin and wild clothes, giving her a wild beauty.
Li Yuchun is just ordinary and has no special features.
So Qin Chuan said that she is not suitable for ancient costumes, she can't play a beautiful woman, and she doesn't look like a chivalrous woman.
"What about your acting skills? Can you eat this bowl of rice?" Long Danni then asked.
She has watched the replays and knows that Li Yuchun is indeed not suitable for ancient costumes, but as long as he has acting skills and there are many roles he can play, there is no chance of transformation.
"It's difficult." Qin Chuan took a puff of cigarette and said calmly: "You saw the replay just now. She is such a novice. She almost read the lyrics according to the script."
"Then do you have any good suggestions?"
"I advised her to sing well and stop acting."
Qin Chuan really wasn't just saying this. He had heard Li Yuchun's songs, and they were indeed good. He wrote lyrics and composed several of them himself, and he was very talented in music.
If you continue to study hard, you can reach the forefront of the Chinese music scene in the future.
Looking back, seeing Long Shanni deep in thought, Qin Chuan said, "I'm just talking casually. I'm not involved in the company's affairs. You have the final say on how to decide."
He was really afraid that Long Shanni would cut off Li Yuchun's career as an actor. If Li Yuchun started making trouble, the company would push him out and take the blame.
Long Danni forced a smile and said: "Don't worry, I will think about it carefully. I'll wait for the movie to be released and see the market feedback."
Of course she hopes to cultivate one more all-round artist.
If you can't cultivate it, it would be false to say that you have no regrets.
"By the way, the New Year's Eve concert is coming soon. Come here a day in advance to rehearse. I'll help you with the holiday for the crew."
This time she came over, not only to see Li Yuchun's performance, but also to inform Qin Chuan to participate in this year's Hunan Satellite TV New Year's Eve concert.
Liu Dehua is definitely not coming this year, and Zhang Xueyou cannot be invited. Qin Chuan is considered the most popular artist after the Four Heavenly Kings.
With his participation, the ratings are guaranteed. Without him, no one can do without him.
Qing Qing squinted and took a puff of cigarette, frowned and said, "Okay, I understand."
Now he really doesn't want to attend these parties, which is a bit of a waste of time.
With his fame, he no longer needs to rely on programs to increase his popularity.
"Sister Long, help me add another singing program. I'll bring someone with me. Forget it, my program will be changed to a duet."
We have to go there anyway, Qin Chuan plans to bring an artist from the company.
He doesn't need this kind of popularity, but newcomers to the company do.
It's possible that just such a song can increase the traffic of newcomers and save them a few years of struggle.
"No problem." Long Danni nodded.
As far as Qinchuan's status is concerned, this kind of face should still be given.
Besides, isn't that what the entertainment industry is like? You help me and I help you. We all hang out in the same circle and help each other when needed.
After settling the matter here, Long Danni invited Qin Chuan and Li Yuchun to dinner in the evening. The three of them chatted about home life and work, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.
Back at the hotel, Qin Chuan called Qin Chao Entertainment and asked Jin Lian to arrange for the artist to go to Shonan Satellite TV for the New Year's Eve.
It's December now, and this hasn't happened for a few days.
…
There are still two days until New Year's Eve.
Qin Chuan came to stay at the hotel arranged by Xiangnan Satellite TV.
In the afternoon, I called Zhao Liying and the two went to the International Convention and Exhibition Center for rehearsal.
"Brother Chuan, I didn't expect you to bring me here. When Sister Jinlian called me, I couldn't believe it."
Zhao Liying, wrapped in a large cotton-padded jacket, said excitedly.
The artist contract she signed with the company has not been long, and she is currently a newcomer among newcomers. She wants acting skills but not acting skills, and wants popularity but not popularity.
For such a good thing as the New Year's Eve concert, Qin Chuan did not take Liu Sisi with him, but instead took her with him.
Pie in the sky.
Qin Chuan didn't say anything, just said: "Work hard, I'm optimistic about you."
Zhao Liying became even more excited, her face flushed.
She didn't expect her boss to appreciate her so much. (End of chapter)
