Entertainment: I really want to make progress

"Quick! It's almost there, ready to start!"

Zhou Yutang was communicating with Wen Muye on the surface, but in fact he had been paying attention to the situation there.

He keenly noticed that Liu Shishi's mood seemed to have reached a critical point, and decisively ordered to turn on the computer.

"The lens is fine."

"The reception is fine."

"Lighting is no problem."

"Clear the place, be quiet, and get ready for test shooting!"

A bright light flashed through Wen Muye's eyes behind his lenses, Lin Yufen nodded, and the shooting started directly.

The college entrance examination results are released.

But Liu Shishi failed in the exam.

At this time, Liu Shishi seemed to have entered a very subtle emotional state.

Thinking that her future was gloomy, Liu Shishi's heart was filled with confusion and loss. Zhou Yutang was beside her, but seemed far away from her.

All the usual strong shells collapsed in an instant.

Fragile, sad, aggrieved.

All kinds of complex emotions intertwined.

Liu Shishi did not cry immediately, but his eyes quietly accumulated mist, and he hugged his knees with his hands, sobbing silently.

She also turned her body slightly sideways, not wanting Zhou Yutang to see her embarrassment.

But her slight sobbing sound was like a sharp knife that had been inserted into Zhou Yutang's heart.

Zhou Yutang's movements and eyes were clearly softening. He looked at the girl with a single ponytail next to him with distress in his eyes.

"I can only study. I can only study."

Liu Shishi's intermittent voice, her emotions were on the verge of collapse, and tears fell down her cheeks like broken pearls: "From junior high school to high school, I could only study, but in the end I still failed in the exam."

Zhou Yutang frowned slightly and pursed his lips.

But he didn't even say a word, he just took out a clean handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to the girl with a single ponytail.

Seeing that the girl with a single ponytail was still crying and her handkerchief was soaked with tears, he took off his clean white T-shirt and handed it over.

Looking sideways and staring at the haggard appearance of the gentle and beautiful cheeks, Zhou Yutang hesitated again and again and finally said:

"No matter what university you go to, there is something I want to say to you."

"Don't tell me you like me now."

"I like you, you already knew it."

Zhou Yutang looked a little helpless and lonely, while Liu Shishi was still crying: "Then what do you want to say to me?"

say what?

Nothing needs to be said.

The camera switched and zoomed in. Zhou Yutang's palm rested on Liu Shishi's trembling shoulders, and his hands were also trembling slightly.

It seems that he wants to caress the shoulder of the girl with a single ponytail, but he is hesitant and apprehensive, which vividly expresses the hesitant mentality of a young man.

finally.

The trembling hand still fell gently.

He patted Liu Shishi's back gently.

What do I want to say?

Maybe I don’t need to say anything, I just don’t want you to feel sad.

"Perfect! So perfect!"

This section made Wen Muye behind the monitor watch it over and over again, with an extremely excited expression.

Is Zhou Yutang a genius?

Can even Liu Shishi be trained into an acting savant?

cry! Cry hard!

This is the feeling you want!

……………………

Apart from filming, Zhou Yutang is also paying attention to information about the domestic film and television industry.

Recently, "Certificate of Approval" and "Assembly Number" have been crazy on the screen, and Xingye's "Yangtze River No. 7" has also begun to issue promotional releases.

There is another major event that will cause a stir in the film industry in September.

Director Li An once again won the Golden Lion Award in Venice with the film "Lust, Caution".

All in all, this is the second time he has won the Golden Lion trophy. As early as 2005, Li An won it with the movie "Brokeback Mountain" about cowboys in the American West.

The news spread back to China, the industry was excited, and the media was carnival.

Last year, Chief Jia won the Golden Lion trophy with "The Good Man". Together with Li An this year, he achieved the third consecutive win for Chinese directors in Venice.

"Brother Tang, when will "Lust, Caution" be released in China?"

It was dinner time for the crew, while Zhang Ruojun was cooking rice and reading the overwhelming headlines, he turned around and asked.

"Probably in November."

"We should be done by then, right?"

Zhang Ruojun's face suddenly showed a look of longing.

"According to this progress, it will almost be completed by the end of September."

After receiving Zhou Yutang's answer, Zhang Ruojun perked up and said plausibly: "Yu Tang, the Golden Lion Award for Best Film, we must go and study hard together."

"Are you going to study? I don't even want to expose you."

Zhou Yutang glanced at it and said, "You don't think those clips can be preserved after they are released, do you?"

Now "Lust, Caution" is very popular on the Internet, mainly because of the gossip spread by an insider. It is said that Tang Wei and Liang Chaowei, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Hong Kong, contributed large-scale performances in this movie, and they immediately became famous. Attracted a lot of LSPs.

"Then are you going or not?"

"Go, I mainly want to study Director Li's shooting techniques."

"."

……………………

In the following days, the filming progressed in an orderly manner.

Liu Shishi is truly immersed in the role of Liu Jiayi, and her emotions are well brewed.

Cai Yinong came to visit the class in late September, and an important scene happened to be shot that day.

It’s the most classic part in the rain.

Downstairs in the boys' dormitory.

Man-made downpour.

Lin Yufen and Wen Muye looked very excited.

At this time, Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi were both entranced.

Zhou Yutang won’t mention it.

His chest was rising and falling slightly, and he was stunned with self-righteousness.

He tried hard to control his emotions, but he was still uncontrollably excited.

In order to attract the attention of his sweetheart, he naively held a fighting competition that looked passionate but was actually ridiculous. In order to prove his strength, he fought with people to a bloody head, but was not understood by the person he liked.

At this time, Liu Shishi was also full of grievances and helplessness.

"childish!"

"Why do you always have to deny things that are important to me?"

"Is hurting yourself the most important thing to you?"

"I'm just naive! That's why I chased you for so long!"

"Then don't chase me!"

Liu Shishi pursed her lips tightly, and her dark and bright eyes gradually turned red.

The rain was pouring heavily, but Zhou Yutang turned around and left without looking back. Liu Shishi immediately chased him.

The girl with a single ponytail stood in the rain, looking at Zhou Yutang's retreating back, with tears in her eyes, trying hard not to let the tears flow down, and shouted in a crying voice:

"Fool!"

"Yeah, I'm the idiot!"

"idiot!"

"Only a fool would chase you for so long!"

"You don't understand anything!"

"I just don't understand anything!"

Zhou Yutang walked away alone in the rain, while Liu Shishi stood there, sobbing, as if he had been abandoned by the whole world.

"Click! Passed!"

Lin Yufen, who was behind the monitor, took off her glasses and wiped her eyes.

Female directors are always a bit sentimental, but making the experienced Lin Yufen shed tears is enough to show that this scene is full of emotions.

On the other side, Wen Muye was also in tears.

This scene is really wonderful and perfectly explains what youth is and what growth is.

It also reminded him of the girl he met in his adolescence that he regretted missing.

Girls are always more mature than boys of the same age. This is probably the cruelest thing in adolescence.

"Okay, okay!"

Only the performance instructor Zhang Songwen's eyes were shining, and he even smiled so much that he showed his big white teeth.

It's not that he has no heart.

But Teacher Zhang was in the position of the crew's performance director and was particularly satisfied with the performances of Zhou Yutang and Liu Shishi.

In his opinion, this scene should be one of the best scenes in the entire play.

"Shishi, quick, towel."

Assistant Tao Zi was already waiting by the side with a dry towel, and trotted over when the shooting was over.

Zhou Yutang also took the towel handed over by Zhao Liying, and while wiping it, he discussed with Wen Muye and Lin Yufen behind the monitor.

After looking at the shooting results, I determined that there were no problems in every aspect.

The two assistant directors were very satisfied.

Zhou Yutang was also very satisfied.

Liu Shishi's immersive experience style is really effective, and he is truly invested in it. This scene explodes with emotion, and even Zhou Yutang has a big breakthrough.

"How is this done?"

Cai Yinong, who watched the whole scene, opened his mouth so wide that he could stuff a goose egg.

She is an old aunt who has made enough food and clothing by herself. All she wants to do all day long is to make the Tang people bigger and stronger, and she doesn't care about youth.

At this time, Mr. Cai was only shocked by Liu Shishi's acting skills and found it incredible.

She brought Liu Shishi out with her own hands. How many kilograms and taels does Cai Yinong still don't know?

But as for the scene just now, I really can't fault it at all. The crying scene in the rain really shocked her.

how to say?

It feels like it's not an act.

"Xiao Tao, what's going on?"

Cai Yinong first praised Liu Shishi, and then couldn't wait to find Shi Shi's assistant Xiaotao.

"I have no idea."

Xiao Tao was a little confused and shook her head: "It seems to have something to do with Zhou Yutang. Director Zhou had a meeting with Sister Fen, Brother Wen and Teacher Zhang a few days ago to teach Shi Shi about the experiential sect."

"Does Zhou Yutang still have this ability?"

Cai Yinong was happy, and ran over to pull Zhou Yutang and asked: "Shi Shi has made great progress, and the effect is better than taking acting classes. Can Hu Ge also learn the experience school? Aren't you good friends?"

"."

Zhou Yutang said speechlessly: "I really can't do anything about this."

As we all know, Director Zhou only has a way of training actresses.

As an actor, just fend for yourself...

"Then why did Shi Shi's acting skills improve so quickly?"

Cai Yinong asked relentlessly.

"Maybe Shi Shi is a hidden actor."

"."

Now it was Cai Yinong's turn to be speechless.

She's not blind.

She had followed Liu Shishi's previous dramas and had communicated with the director many times in private.

Several directors put it tactfully.

But the final conclusion is very consistent. Liu Shishi, who has not received any professional training, has unsatisfactory acting skills.

Zhou Yutang was talking nonsense to Cai Yinong, but he knew it.

The reason why Liu Shishi can enter the role of Liu Jiayi so immersively is also the effect of his deliberate alienation from reality during this period.

The male and female protagonists in the play are in a state of alienation and incomprehension from each other.

Liu Shishi is very into the show.

But filming was fun for a while, but now that it’s finished, I’m a little worried.

"Yu Tang."

Wen Muye came over and whispered: "This scene is over, why don't you go and coax Shi Shi?"

He is an honest man, but not an emotional idiot.

Following Zhou Yutang every day, I had already noticed that Liu Shishi and Zhou Yutang were a bit ambiguous.

Just some time ago, when Zhou Yutang was telling her a story, Liu Shishi's eyes were almost wired. Is this possible?

"No dog can coax him."

Zhou Yutang said calmly on the surface: "These little girls, there is no need to coax them, just let them adjust themselves."

"Is there still such an operation?"

Wen Muye gave a thumbs up in shock, expressing his admiration.

………………………

"Are you there?"

After finishing work, Zhao Liying was a little flattered when she received the news from Zhou Yutang.

The identity gap between the two is really too big.

Zhou Yutang not only became an instant hit, but is now a film investor + screenwriter + film leading actor. She sounds like she is the second female lead in the movie, but in fact she is a supporting actress with not many roles.

"Boss Zhou, what's the matter?"

Zhao Liying was a little hesitant about how to reply.

Originally he was called Director Zhou, but after thinking about it, the deputy directors Wen Muye and Lin Liang sometimes called him Boss Zhou, so they also called him Boss Zhou.

She was not narcissistic enough to think that Zhou Yutang would like her, and she knew that there must be something else going on.

"You are Shi Shi's friend, just call me Yu Tang."

There was a message from Zhou Yutang’s side soon to reply: “How is Shi Shi’s situation?”

"fine."

Zhao Liying glanced at Liu Shishi and understood.

Yes.

Zhou Yutang didn't seem to pay much attention to Shi Shi during this period. Shi Shi was very depressed when he came back and his mood was always sensitive.

Now the smart little girl Zhao has come to her senses and knows that Zhou Yutang is helping Liu Shishi to get emotional. After filming, she realizes that she cares about her. What a big pig's hooves.

"more specific."

"At the beginning, Shi Shi seemed very sad. After she came back, she got a lot better, but she talked a lot less than usual. She recited the lines in the play every day. It felt like she thought she was Liu Jiayi."

Zhao Liying reported what she observed to Zhou Yutang one by one.

She has a very good relationship with Liu Shishi, but Zhou Yutang is the big boss in this crew, not to mention that he is also concerned about Liu Shishi's condition.

Seeing that the smile on Liu Shishi's pretty little face had disappeared, Zhao Liying sighed quietly: "Boss Zhou Yutang, you are miserable. Shi Shi and I often chat, and I remember she said that she will not lose her temper easily. But when you are angry, it is difficult to coax you, and you are basically in a state of ignoring others."

"That's it."

Zhou Yutang's voice sounded a little helpless: "Then what do you think we should do?"

what to do?

I don't know what to do.

It's not me who made Liu Shishi angry.

Zhao Liying rolled her eyes, but still politely thought of a way for Zhou Yutang: "Boss, I think you should find an opportunity to apologize to Shi Shi. Be sincere. It's all for the sake of making a movie. She will definitely understand you."

"Well, I'll give you and Shi Shi a day off tomorrow, and you can take her out for a walk."

Brother, I don’t have any scenes tomorrow, okay? I just go to the set just to do odd jobs.

Zhao Liying twitched the corner of her mouth slightly and asked tentatively: "Boss, what are your plans?"

"You go shopping first, eat hot pot in the evening, and then go to the KTV after the hot pot. I will pay for the whole process. The main thing is to adjust Shi Shi's condition. You can't be tense all the time. Send me a message when you get to the KTV."

"."

……………………

Since joining the group, there have been shooting plans every day.

Coupled with the fact that Zhou Yutang is a strict tyrant on the set, the filming of this movie was actually quite hard.

Especially the last few scenes where I cried, which consumed a large part of the filming time.

The way Zhou Yutang treated her did make her a little disappointed and sad at first, but when the director said the scene was over, Liu Shishi was relieved.

I finally didn’t hold back the crew.

Then looking at Zhou Yutang, who had a haircut without even saying a word because of the need for filming, and ran behind the surveillance mirror to see the results of the shooting without even having time to wipe off his wet body, he suddenly understood everything.

He really worked hard to make this movie.

Not only did he invest a large amount of money, he also went out to build relationships and almost risked everything to be cast as the heroine.

During this time on the crew, everyone was very busy, but Zhou Yutang was undoubtedly the busiest one.

Although there were two assistant directors, a director of photography, and an art director to help with the filming, every shot had to be nodded by Zhou Yutang himself.

So Liu Shishi can understand that he deliberately distanced himself for a period of time in order to help himself get into the drama.

Experientialism, what kind of experientialism is it if you don’t immerse yourself into the characters in the play?

What reason do you have to lose your temper?

Liu Jiayi and Zhou Ziyu, at that time, wanted this kind of feeling of being separated and unable to speak out, but still feeling a little separated.

Forget it, there's no point thinking about it.

The crew is on holiday today, and eating hotpot with Xiaoying is a joyful thing.

Liu Shishi packed his things.

When girls go out to play, things like headphones, mouthwash, wipes, sunscreen, lipstick and the like are all essential.

Suddenly he paused and put another delicate box into the bag.

Hum, if you see Zhou Yutang, give him a surprise.

……………………

Haoledi KTV.

Small box.

Zhao Liying and Liu Shishi rinsed their mouths in the bathroom and chatted about their relaxing day.

After shopping around for an afternoon, I bought some trinkets and contributed 50 yuan to the claw machine. As a result, I caught two cute and cute little bear dolls.

But after being on the set for so long, I still had a lot of fun, especially the Shudu Fragrant Hotpot we had in the evening, which was so delicious.

Both girls Liu Shishi and Zhao Liying prefer spicy food.

After eating, they arrived at the small KTV box reserved in advance. After singing a few songs, Zhao Liying went out to take a phone call. She didn't come back after more than ten minutes. Liu Shishi wanted to call someone, but Zhao Liying called first. She came over and said that the crew suddenly came to see her for something urgent, so she took a taxi back first.

Liu Shishi felt a little strange, but he didn't ask much. It was normal for filming on the set to reshoot scenes.

She was bored by being alone, so she packed her things and started to leave. When she got to the door, she almost bumped into someone.

Look up.

A tall and lonely figure stood at the door.

Today, Zhou Yutang is wearing a peaked cap, a pair of flat glasses, a large mask on his face, a solid-color high-quality cotton T-shirt with a Möbius ring pattern from the TV series, and simple jeans. Pair it with simple and refreshing Vans canvas shoes.

"Why are you here?"

"I just had a meeting with Sister Xiaoping. Sister Fen is anxious to find Xiao Zhao to reshoot the scene. I heard that you are here alone. I guess you can't stay alone, so I came to take you back."

Zhou Yutang answered without blushing or heartbeat.

"I can go back by myself."

Liu Shishi deliberately turned his head away from Zhou Yutang, but his heart beat several times unsatisfactorily.

Li Xiaoping from Guangguang came to the crew today. It seemed that Zhou Yutang was going to have a meeting with her to discuss the filming progress, but she actually came to pick him up.

really.

He cares about himself.
