Chapter 103 Waving hands is not rejection, it means no need to say anything
Still on the river bank.
Liu Xiaoli sat on a chair, with her hands folded in front of her chest and her legs stacked on top of each other, just watching Qin Chuan and Liu Yifei play each other.
By the way, I also observed the surrounding environment to see if there were any paper balls or anything like that.
"This kid is pretty good at picking places."
This place is remote and deserted. If something happens, no one else can see it.
Qin Chuan didn't care what Liu Xiaoli thought, he just wanted to finish the scene with Liu Yifei and leave.
So the usual two hours of activities were completed in half an hour today.
"Sorry." Before Qin Chuan left, Liu Yifei finally apologized to him.
"fine."
Qin Chuan wouldn't take his anger out on a little girl. If he did, it would be Liu Xiaoli.
"Auntie, the phone will be turned on tomorrow. I won't be here from now on. If you need help, please call me at any time."
Liu Xiaoli: "..."
No, what does this mean?
What do you mean by calling him if you need anything?
What can I need?
The next day, the filming started at Hengdian Film and Television City.
As a Hong Kong director, Li Guoli still does the traditional thing, worshiping gods, sacrificing pig heads, setting off firecrackers, and giving out red envelopes.
Qin Chuan felt that he could actually skip to the last step and give out red envelopes.
"Brother Chuan, stand here."
Qin Chuan, who is accustomed to standing at the back, was invited to the front row by the staff this time. He was either the actor Xie Junhao or an old actor like Xu Jingjiang.
It's still a bit unaccustomed to it.
"Come on, I'll count to three, two, and one, and let's all shout for good luck with the launch of Legend of Sword and Fairy."
"Three, two, one!"
"Wish Legend of Sword and Fairy a happy launch!"
Under the photographer's shutter, everyone's photos are fixed in the frame.
Afterwards, Qin Chuan also received the first opening photo in his life.
I was twenty that year, and I was in the C position.
In the afternoon, the crew officially started filming.
The crew rented a warehouse next to the hotel as a makeup point, where everyone usually puts on makeup.
Including the extras, after makeup was done, they were towed directly to the set by van or bus.
Different from the group performances, the leading actors put on their makeup in separate areas, separated by baffles and covered by curtains outside.
Qin Chuan enjoyed an "independent" dressing room for the first time.
"Boss, lower your head."
"Yes, that's it."
After several days of training, Wang Tingting feels that her skills have improved to a higher level and she is more comfortable with makeup.
As she drew one stroke at a time, Qin Chuan's face began to change.
The eyebrows are more heroic, the jawline is more obvious, the bridge of the nose is straighter, and the small acne marks and small blemishes on the face are gone.
After putting on the hood, the appearance has gone up a notch.
"Boss, don't tell me, you are really suitable for acting in ancient costumes."
Wang Tingting looked at Qin Chuan in the mirror and said.
Costume dramas use a lot of makeup, which greatly improves appearance. With the help of headgear, costumes, eyebrow shaping, and makeup, a person with a 70-year-old appearance can turn into an 80-year-old without any problem.
Qin Chuan has good foundation, is young, has been practicing martial arts all year round, and has a good-looking frame.
It's obvious that he doesn't need shoulder pads.
After many male actors put on ancient costumes, their shoulders are slumped and their clothes fall to both sides.
Qin Chuan is different. His shoulders are broad and he can fully support him.
I heard that Peking Opera martial arts students are like this. They stand on their heads and hold a big head every day to exercise their arms and shoulders. Over time, their shoulders will become wider.
Not to mention specially designed slim-fitting ancient costumes, you can also wear opera python robes.
"I can act, but not too much." Qin Chuan touched his forehead and said, "I'm worried that people will become Mediterranean when they reach middle age."
"I feel like my hair is falling out a little bit quickly recently."
Once you put on the hood, it is made of both glue and alcohol. Who can withstand this?
Wang Tingting said: "You haven't filmed a costume drama recently. Is it possible that it was caused by smoking, drinking, staying up late, getting pedicures, and eating barbecue?"
"Yeah?"
"Be confident, that is."
"Looks like I'll have to eat less barbecue."
Qin Chuan didn't mention anything about smoking, drinking, and staying up late for pedicures.
After finishing their makeup and hair, Qin Chuan and Wang Tingting went out. A seven-seater SUV was waiting for them.
As the number one male, a private car is provided as standard.
Soon, we arrived at the filming location.
A peach blossom forest.
They are all artificial peach blossoms, made of plastic.
Originally, the crew wanted to use real ones, but the timing was not right. The peach blossoms would have to wait until February or March next year, which was too late.
After getting off the car, Qin Chuan took off his down jacket and handed his cell phone to Wang Tingting for safekeeping.
The weather is a bit cold today, and most of the crew are starting to keep warm in early winter.
Qin Chuan, wearing a thin costume, went to the director's studio to report to Li Guoli.
"You two have been in private contact for several days. This scene shouldn't be a big problem, right?"
"No problem, Director Li, I've checked with you several times."
While talking, Li Guoli beckoned Liu Yifei over to talk about the drama together.
Different from the pink dress in Tian Long Ba Bu, Liu Yifei's costume colors in this drama are more diverse.
Mainly green.
It highlights the character's naughtiness, youth, and the "skin" color that matches the mother of the earth and the descendants of Nuwa.
"When it comes to acting, I need Ling'er to be more cute, youthful and energetic, not too pretentious, and just show the character that belongs to your age."
"In your heart, Li Xiaoyao is your savior ten years ago. You have been familiar with him for a long time, so in front of him, you will show the tenderness, cuteness and undefense of a girl."
"Don't be as cold and smart as the Wang Yuyan you played before."
Wang Yuyan and Zhao Linger are two extremes.
Li Guoli was also a little afraid that Liu Yifei would copy the previous role again, and that would be a complete failure.
Liu Yifei said confidently: "Good director, I understand."
Qin Chuan had already taught her during the show.
Liberate your nature and free yourself.
You don’t have to act deliberately, just express the emotions that a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl should have.
"Qin Chuan, you too..." Li Guoli was just about to tell Qin Chuan a play when he turned around and saw this boy holding his hands on his chest, staring at him with clear eyes and a smile on his lips.
Isn't this right? Li Xiaoyao. "No, Xiao Qin, filming hasn't started yet, so you don't need to be involved."
"I'm used to it. As soon as I put on these clothes, I automatically assume the role." Even the tone of Qin Chuan's words and the gesture of shaking his head were the same as Li Xiaoyao's.
"Young man, it's very difficult for you to lead like this." Li Guoli waved his hand: "There's nothing more to say. Go get ready and start shooting right away."
Ten minutes later, Peach Blossom Forest.
Everyone is ready.
"Scene 8, shot 4, action!"
The attendant used a board to cover Liu Yifei's face, patted him, and quickly left.
Liu Yifei took over the line.
"Brother Xiaoyao, don't you remember me? I'm Ling'er."
It was the same words that the two of them had spoken against a few days ago, and Liu Yifei was now very familiar with it. His expressions, posture, and body language were all trained by Qin Chuan.
"Ah, should we get to know each other?"
"We know each other. Ten years ago I..."
In less than five minutes, the scene was filmed and the camera was changed to film it again. The total of the two takes did not exceed fifteen minutes.
It was incredibly smooth.
"Yes, prepare for the next one."
For traditional Hong Kong directors, the first scene is very important. If the first scene goes well, the rest will go well as well.
Qin Chuan and Liu Yifei got off to a good start, and Li Guoli was very happy.
However, compared to the first scene, the second scene is slightly more difficult.
In the lotus pond, Liu Yifei had to take a bath.
In November, the weather has already become cold, hot water cannot be used in the lotus pond, and the fog is too heavy, which affects the shooting.
Even if he could use it, Li Guoli wouldn't be able to use it.
Liu Yifei is not good enough to use hot water, so it is not worth his trouble.
Just like wearing a long tube top dress, Liu Yifei simply wrapped a few rounds of plastic wrap around her body, then put on a chest-length jacket and got into the water.
But you still have to be shirtless from the chest up.
I shivered as soon as I got down.
"How do you feel? Can you hold on?" Li Guoli asked on the shore.
Liu Yifei gritted his teeth and said, "No problem, it's okay."
She knew that the heroine was not easy to come by, and she couldn't give up after finally getting the role. Even though it was cold, she still had to persevere.
On the side, Liu Xiaoli looked at her daughter soaking in the water, feeling extremely distressed.
"Go down on your shoulders as well." Qin Chuan reminded: "Submerge your neck and adapt to the water temperature in advance. It will stop getting cold after a few seconds."
Anyone who has ever swum in winter knows that it’s the first time you get in the water and you feel so cold.
The human body can automatically adjust body temperature to adapt to the surrounding environment.
Liu Xiaoli gritted her teeth and wanted to kick Qin Chuan into the water to adapt to the water temperature.
"Wow."
Before Sister Li could take action, Liu Yifei squatted down and let the water cover his neck.
Shaking even harder.
Within ten seconds, this feeling gradually disappeared, and she adapted to the temperature of the water.
"Director, I can do it."
"Okay, you hide in front of the lotus and let the lotus cover you. Later, turn around and show your face and let the flower set off your face."
"By the way, your back should also be exposed, but not too much. Don't let your hands be idle. Do a few water-playing movements."
Every scene of every scene has long been imprinted in Li Guoli's mind, and he talks about the scenes easily.
"Qin Chuan, when you peek later, don't look too lewd. I want the curiosity, excitement, longing, and ignorance that a boy has when he is in adolescence towards a girl's body."
Li Guoli's request for Liu Yifei was to show his face and back.
Going to Qinchuan is twice as difficult as it requires voyeurism without being lewd, and it also requires curiosity, excitement, longing, and ignorance.
If it had been anything else, he would have scolded him a long time ago, but Qin Chuan just waved his hand.
Li Guoli frowned: "Did you not understand or can't do it?"
His requirements were indeed a bit high, but this was what this scene wanted. If Qin Chuan didn't understand, he could explain it in more detail.
If you can't do it, you really can't do it.
Qin Chuan: "No need to say more."
Li Guoli: "..."
Okay, okay, the pretense is on me.
"You better be able to perform the effect I want in a while."
Two minutes later, the second scene started filming.
Li Xiaoyao came to Xianling Island and accidentally saw someone taking a bath in the lotus pond, so he hid behind a stone and peeked.
"So beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful girl."
Qin Chuan stood on tiptoes, leaned forward, raised his chin, and looked at the back in the water with a smile on his face.
Director Li Guoli immediately directed the camera through the intercom: "Give Qin Chuan a close-up of his eyes, yes, that's it, very good, keep it up."
Leaning back on the chair, Li Guoli was in a very good mood. He did not expect that Qin Chuan would capture the emotion he wanted just once.
An adolescent boy peeks at a girl taking a bath. In comics and novels, it should be a censored plot.
But the feeling Qin Chuan performed was not pornographic.
Instead, he was curious and appreciative, but you could feel the rising male hormones on his face and in his tone.
An expert will know if there is one as soon as he takes action.
There were many people watching the show, including Xu Jingjiang, who had a smile on his face at the moment.
It's a pity that he didn't have a pen in his hand, otherwise he would have painted Qin Chuan's expression high and low.
This kind of scene of a boy with a sense of eroticism and puberty is something he rarely encounters.
I've already thought of a name, boy's peeping picture.
"Who is there? Who are you, and how did you get here!" It was Liu Yifei's turn to speak, and with a simple look back, he was as charming as a lotus flower.
You really rely on your face to make a living.
This was the first thought of everyone present.
A good-looking face conceals Liu Yifei's lack of acting skills.
On the other hand, Qin Chuan is a real acting school.
He turned his head away and squatted on the ground, not daring to look anymore. He was ashamed and panicked: "I, I, I came here to ask for medicine. I accidentally broke into Sister Fairy's bath. Please forgive me."
"Turn your head, don't peek... My grandma said that anyone who peeks at a girl's bath is a thief. I'll beat you to death!"
Zhao Ling'er, who had pulled up his trousers, turned against him and wanted to do it.
Fortunately, he recognized Li Xiaoyao at the critical moment.
