"The Return of the Condor Heroes" film and television base, night show.
After repeated NGs, Liu Qianqian sat down on her little stool helplessly.
My mother handed me a thermos cup filled with hot water that had been prepared long ago.
By the way, I also asked about and encouraged my daughter's poor condition.
Most of the actors drank in the evening, and after drinking, most of them returned to the hotel to rest.
But there are exceptions, such as Wang Jia, a classmate who has a good relationship with Xixi, and Zhao Dandan, Xixi's sparring partner.
Zhang Yuan is used to it. Basically, as long as there is no emergency, he will be waiting on the scene as soon as the crew starts filming.
This is also something I learned from many veteran actors. What if I can use it in some way?
Actors need to be prepared at all times and stay on the set all the time, just like crosstalk performers always stay in the theater. Immersed in the atmosphere, it helps performers get into the state.
This is called "fumigation".
He was there, and Zhao Hongfei, with whom he had been getting along well in recent days, also came.
This person has been almost inseparable from him during the day for the past few days. After getting along with him, Zhao Hongfei felt that he was inferior to this younger actor in everything.
He is far behind in terms of connections and status in the entertainment industry.
What's more, the professional attitude that he was proud of on a daily basis seemed to have become commonplace on Zhang Yuan's side.
Although this person looks arrogant, he actually has a good heart. However, deep down, he is still a little arrogant.
It's normal for a young man who looks good to be arrogant.
But this person is not annoying because he is only proud of himself and does not bully others.
He is quite tolerant towards others, but he is very strict with himself.
This is actually a good thing.
Seeing Liu Qianqian's depressed look, classmate Wang Jia nodded.
"This is her normal self."
It’s not that her classmates belittled her, but she was usually like this when she was completing her homework at school.
It takes a lot of time to prepare, and you have to keep adjusting to get into the state.
The relaxed and perfect performance during the day was completely unlike the Sissi she knew.
When it comes to acting, apart from people with extraordinary talents, like Shu Chang, who has been a "little adult" since childhood, it depends on the accumulation of experience and knowledge. Only when the mind becomes more mature can the acting skills mature.
Liu Qianqian entered the Beijing Film Academy at the age of 14, and is generally four to five years younger than the group of acting students around her who are "one in a million" and "prodigies of heaven".
With her intelligence and ability, it would be incredible if she could understand the role and get into the performance faster than others.
Being slow is normal.
"It seems that Xixi's excellent performance during the day is mainly due to Zhang Yuan's efforts." Wang Jia glanced at the male protagonist who was touching his chin, as if he was thinking about something.
"Oh, she's so lucky."
"I have a mother who loves me and pays for me all day long."
"And Zhang Yuan helped her get into the role and adjusted her state."
"She is so happy."
"It would be great if I also had a boy like this to support me." Wang Jia was very envious and lamented Liu Qianqian's good fortune.
"Now that she is acting with Yang Guo, Zhang Yuan won't be able to help her..."
Wang Jia just thought of this, but saw Zhang Yuan with a sly smile on his face, slowly walking towards them.
"Hey Hey……"
"Are you laughing at me?" Liu Qianqian turned away with an unfriendly look when she heard his laughter.
"There was something wrong with your performance just now."
What’s the matter? What’s it got to do with you... Liu Qianqian has a stubborn temper. If it were before, she would definitely have replied like this to Zhang Yuan, whom she is very familiar with.
But when she thought about her experiences during the day, especially the afternoon when the other party helped her find her character status, she shook her head.
"Are you too tired?" Aunt Liu asked.
"She is not tired, but her attention is distracted." Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiaolongnu who was dressed in white.
There are only a few reasons why the performance is not good.
Physical reasons, psychological reasons, external factors.
Liu Xixi is in good health now. Although she started filming at an intense pace on the first day and had to shoot in the morning and afternoon before a night shoot, the previous training had already strengthened her physical fitness, so it wasn't a big problem.
As for external factors, they were actually not that bad, and nothing had any particular impact on her.
The extras who acted with her all graduated from the same martial arts school as her sparring partner Zhao Dandan, and their level was far higher than that of ordinary extras.
So these action scenes are not a problem.
The problem, then, is her own psychology.
There are actually two points to this psychological problem.
First of all, it's herself.
Although she doesn't have the image of an exquisite beauty on weekdays, she is still a teenage girl after all, and she is very vain in private!
Zhang Yuan had already noticed it on the day of the final photo shoot. Before removing her makeup in the dressing room, she was turning around in front of the mirror and admiring her look over and over again.
There was pride in his eyes and eyebrows, and his raised neck and chin showed his complacency.
Of course, she has her reasons for being narcissistic.
Among the many versions of Xiaolongnu, Liu Xixi's version is the best.
Especially the entrance scene, which is the part being filmed now, has astonished most of the audience.
As for the face and looks, it depends on personal opinion.
The most popular version of Little Dragon Girl is Li Ruotong. In addition to the added sentimentality, Li Ruotong's appearance carries a somewhat sad and cold feeling, which makes the audience feel heartbroken and pitiful.
Liu Xixi looks more childish, a little sweet and cute, after all, her age and life experience are there.
She lives in a villa, is picked up and dropped off by an RV, and has her mother by her side. No matter how you ask her to suffer, she won't be able to do so.
Wearing this outfit, it was better when he was acting with Zhang Yuan during the day, after all, he was there to attract attention.
At night, when she was alone in front of the crowd, she was dressed in white under the moonlight, dancing like a fairy from heaven. Anyone would be vain.
Those little fairies in later generations can take a thousand selfies while having afternoon tea, so isn't it normal for the real fairies here to admire themselves?
So some of her attention was diverted to her own style and image.
The conceited part is easy to deal with, but the other half is a bigger problem.
Because the source of another part of the psychological problems is Liu Xiaoli.
That’s right, it’s her mother!
What is the biggest feature of this version of Xiaolongnu?
In addition to Liu Qianqian herself, the fighting moves are exquisitely and beautifully designed.
The fighting style of Qian's version of Xiaolongnu is more towards dancing than martial arts, which is consistent with her personality.
The most distinctive one is Xiaolongnu’s signature attack move, dancing with ribbons!
Use the swung white silk to attack the opponent, and the golden ball bell tied to the end of the silk will make a crisp sound during the attack to confuse the enemy.
In the later stage, he even used his internal force to make the bells emit strange sounds, which could also produce a mind-disturbing effect similar to Huang Lao Xie's "Song of the Rising Tide in the Blue Sea".
This is all written in the original novel. This move is called the Golden Bell Rope, which is Xiaolongnu's unique martial art.
The ribbons also come with music, so it's natural for the crew to interpret this set of martial arts as a dance.
Coupled with the fact that Big Beard was willing to invest, the final effect was truly amazing.
It can be said that among all the versions, the depiction of the golden bell rope is the most graceful, elegant and mysterious.
But anyone who is familiar with dance can tell that this is a set of movements involving waving ribbons and dancing with white silk.
Whether it is body movements, verve, or action.
That swing and that pull.
A turn and a shake.
It is obvious that it borrows a lot of techniques and movements from the "Water Sleeve Dance", which is derived from Chinese opera and is very famous and distinctive in classical folk dance.
The water sleeve dance is a very difficult dance, especially the control of arm strength and force-generating techniques. Without several years of hard training, the water sleeves weighing dozens of kilograms would either be unable to be swung out or pulled back.
Although Liu Qianqian has some basic dancing skills, the water sleeve dance is still beyond her scope.
Fortunately, this was a TV series, so we had the help of wire effects and extras and martial arts directors to achieve the desired effect.
So what does this have to do with Liu Xiaoli?
Because Liu Xiaoli is an expert in Chinese water sleeve dance!
She is particularly good at this difficult dance and has even held solo performances.
The fact that her mother is a dancer has always been one of Liu Xixi's prides.
Now my action scenes just happen to accurately hit the point that my mother is best at.
Liu Qianqian’s mentality cannot be simple.
Desire to perform, worry, nervousness... She can pretend to be an adult, but she will always be a child in front of her mother.
Liu Xiaoli also gave her individual guidance before the filming, especially on action techniques.
It is of course a good thing to have an "expert" to guide her, but the problem is that Liu Qianqian's stubborn personality easily puts her under pressure.
"This is the dance my mother is best at. As her daughter, I cannot embarrass her."
"I can't be as good as my mother. Will she dislike me?"
"Ah, I don't have the same talent as my mother. Will I ever be able to be like her..."
These two psychological factors made her nervous, helpless but conceited during the photo shoot.
My mind is mostly not on the characters, so I am naturally distracted and unable to concentrate. My thoughts always drift to my mother or my own look.
"Does this angle look good to me?"
"Did my action meet my mother's requirements?"
At her age, her professional ability and self-control are not enough to completely eliminate distracting thoughts.
It's very blue.
Zhang Yuan did not point out her thoughts because it was useless.
As for why he was grinning...Because he had a solution, but it was rather rough.
Just like when Shi Xiaolong was troubled by teacher Guo Feili "pulling" his pigtails.
As for Zhang Yuan, there is always a solution, but he cannot guarantee whether the quality is high or not.
"Aunt Liu, I want to talk to Xixi in private. Can I have a moment with you?" Zhang Yuan asked.
"Uh... okay." Liu Xiaoli thought to herself, Zhang Yuan definitely didn't have any good intentions based on that expression.
But this is what's strange about him. You know clearly that he can't do anything good, but you also know that he must be doing the right thing.
He must have seen that Xixi was not performing well and wanted to help.
"You guys go ahead." Liu Xiaoli thought to herself, he couldn't do anything in public.
As long as it's good for my daughter, everything is fine.
Wang Jia, who was standing by, also opened his eyes wide in surprise.
"Is there any way to help Sissi without acting against him?"
"Is he really that powerful?"
Zhang Yuan pulled Liu Qianqian aside.
"What are you going to do?" Liu Qianqian was a little naive, but not stupid. She knew that Zhang Yuan had a naughty expression and was definitely going to play a trick on her again.
But he knew he wouldn't hurt him, so he became more careful.
"Come closer!" Zhang Yuan came forward and whispered, "Do you know why Xiao Longnu has so many white silks..."
After about a minute or two, Liu Qianqian's expression gradually became dull and her eyes gradually lost their luster.
It was as if he was being looked at by Medusa and was gradually being petrified.
When others saw her like this, they felt that the girl seemed to have suffered some kind of psychological trauma.
When she slowly returned to her mother, Liu Xiaoli found that her daughter was walking with her hands and feet unsteadily.
"What did he say to you?"
"I...it's nothing." Liu Qianqian lowered her head and shook her head with a pale face.
"Little Dragon Girl, get ready!"
It just so happened that the time for rest and adjustment had come, so she rushed in front of the camera.
"Come on, get ready!"
Swish!
Liu Qianqian's eyes narrowed.
Director Yu Min immediately noticed something different.
Compared to before, Liu Qianqian's eyes were no longer vague, and there was a hint of gloom between her brows, as if she was filled with anger and disgust.
This scene is about the Quanzhen Sect beating up Granny Sun, and she comes out to save the situation.
Of course she was angry that her mother-in-law, who had been with her since childhood, was beaten.
Of course she felt disgusted when she saw the Quanzhen sect members who beat up her mother-in-law.
This anger and feeling of disgust is right!
"ACTION!"
After the camera was turned on, Yu Min also found that it was completely different from before.
At this moment, Liu Qianqian's attention was no longer distracted, her mind was highly concentrated, and her movements were more powerful.
"How strange!" Yu Min was puzzled. After resting for more than ten minutes, he adjusted his state.
So it seems that our Little Dragon Girl has a good talent for acting.
I thought this teenage girl would make filming very troublesome.
I didn't expect her to be so adaptable.
Yu Min didn’t know, but Zhao Hongfei, who had been standing next to Zhang Yuan, knew it clearly.
He saw the transformation of Xiaolongnu in front of the camera and was puzzled.
"Zhang Yuan, what exactly did you teach her to change so much?" He turned around and looked at Zhang Yuan with a respectful attitude and admiring eyes, and asked.
Zhang Yuan smiled and spoke slowly.
Liu Xixi’s problem is that her attention is distracted by other things and she has too many things on her mind.
What he did was to stimulate her with something more powerful so that she would have no time to think about those "trivial things".
"I told her my speculation about Little Dragon Girl."
"Little Dragon Girl has lived in the ancient tomb for more than ten years."
"The Ancient Tomb School's martial arts, in addition to the Jade Girl Heart Sutra, is the Jade Girl Pure Heart Sword."
"But she invented a special fighting method of attacking with white silk."
"Then the question is why she had so much white silk in the first place."
"It doesn't take that much to make clothes."
"So I told her that all girls have their periods."
"This white silk was originally prepared by Xiao Longnu for her menstrual period."
"After all, there was no Whisper in ancient times."
"These white silks have to be used every month and thrown away after use, so of course we have to prepare more."
"That's why she used a white silk several dozen feet long as a weapon."
Zhao Hongfei was stunned after hearing this!
The reverence and respect just now disappeared in a second.
Is this a job that a normal person can come up with?
Not only Zhao Hongfei, but also Liu Qianqian felt sick after listening to it.
Now, when she flicked her sleeves, she felt like she was shaking off two pieces of Always.
Get rid of it.
One by one, no one said a word.
Not to mention the white silk, she now even felt that her figure looked like a large, snow-white sanitary napkin.
Why are you still being so conceited? Your mentality is about to collapse.
Anger and disgust that fit the character also arise naturally.
"Zhang Yuan, aren't you afraid that the girls will scratch you if you do this?" Zhao Hongfei couldn't bear to look at the white silks anymore.
My mind is full of Xiaolongnu's period.
The fairy suddenly fell into the mortal world.
"Don't worry, she will thank us."
"Card!"
"This one is good!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Min shouted to stop.
"Xiao Long Nu's eyes and expression are well adjusted, keep it up."
Liu Qianqian gritted her teeth, breathed out through her nostrils, walked up to him, and spoke word by word.
"Thank you!"
[Received thanks from Liu Xixi, dance basics +1! ]
Zhang Yuan spread his hands and said, "Take a look."
