Chapter Nineteen: Rival Play

Arima Guixiang felt her heart tremble in a trance. This look in her eyes was very consistent with the character setting of the male protagonist in the play.

The male protagonist Watanabe in the play has always been in love with the female lead Terumi Ueto, but because of his timid personality, he has never dared to say it out loud.

And Terumi Ueto has never been able to understand Watanabe's feelings.

But in these few episodes, Watanabe finally couldn't hide himself. Although he still couldn't express his confession nakedly, he finally made the heroine feel his feelings.

This section is a relatively important plot in the whole drama. I have to say that Hayato Kimura was injured at the wrong time.

Looking into Kei Fujiwara's eyes, Arima Keika had a feeling that the man in front of her had always been deeply in love with her, and he was full of emotions with nowhere to express them.

At that moment, Arima Keixiang suddenly became a little flustered. She lowered her head and said, "Watanabe-kun, what do you mean by this?"

Fujiwara Keidao: "I don't mean anything. Terumi, it's very hard to like someone. I know it. I know it better than anyone else..."

Arima Guixiang: "..."

"Good night, Miss Ueto, I'm going home. I hope you have a good sleep."

After the rehearsal, Arima Keixiang rolled up her hair: "Very good, Fujiwara-kun, have you ever been an actor before?"

Fujiwara Keido: "My major involves this aspect. I used to participate in a performance club when I was in college..."

Arima Guixiang nodded and said: "No wonder, you acted very well..."

Arima Guixiang feels a little regretful that such a good acting skills can only leave a shadow and cannot officially appear on the scene.

"But it's not enough to just rehearse and perform well." Keixiang Arima reminded with a smile, "During the actual shooting, there is no script to look at. And the director and staff will be watching you. Are you stressed?"

Fujiwara Keimichi: "Of course it's stressful to play opposite Arima Katsura, but I can handle it."

"That guy Fujiwara actually wants to act with Keika Arima?!" AD colleagues who had been working with Kei Fujiwara for many days expressed surprise when they heard the news.

"It's just a substitute..." another person said, but in his heart he said: I also want to be this substitute.

"There won't be any intimate scenes, right?"

"Haha, what are you thinking about? He's just a stand-in, so the intimate scenes won't be his turn."

"Can he act? I'm afraid he will make a fool of himself then."

"Haha, it doesn't matter if he makes a fool of himself. It won't be broadcast anyway. Only we can see it. Hey, he is a colleague after all. Don't laugh at him then."

Colleagues are more or less envious, but besides envy, there is also a sense of schadenfreude and sympathy.

Being an actor is not that simple, especially for those who have not received acting training. Let alone how good the performance is, just stand in the spotlight, under the scrutiny of a group of professionals, and be able to speak in a calm tone. It's very difficult to speak lines.

"Hey, you guys." Nishimura Taro heard their discussion and walked over with an unkind expression.

"Although Fujiwara is just a stand-in, he will affect Miss Arima's performance. When he performs, you guys are not allowed to laugh. Do you hear me? Forget it, you acquaintances don't show up then. In Fujiwara’s sight.”

Many newcomers are like this. The more nervous they are, the more they can't control their smiles. Especially when they see an acquaintance, they may feel like they're having a seizure and they can't control their smiles.

"knew……"

The scenes between the male and female protagonists were about to begin. Wataru Sato once again approached Kei Fujiwara to help him with psychological training, asking him not to be nervous and put too much pressure on him. His face would not appear in the official content anyway.

Kei Fujiwara nodded and said he would do his best.

In fact, Sato Wataru has been prepared for many NGs. After all, he is a temporary support staff member. If the performance is not good, it is expected, and as a director, I will not blame him.

"Scene 4, first shot, action."

Arima Keixiang first adjusted her state. As the slate closed, a "click" sounded and she began to read out her lines.

Sato Wataru sat behind the monitor and kept nodding. Arima Keika's acting skills have always been very stable, but this scene was a bit special. He was a little afraid that Fujiwara Kei would affect Arima Keika's performance.

However, as the "male lead" read out his lines, Wataru Sato suddenly raised one eyebrow, and looked away from the monitor screen in disbelief, looking at Kei Fujiwara.

What's going on with this acting?

Kei Fujiwara's performance is very stable, every word is sonorous and powerful, with emotions attached, and the body movements are just right, not exaggerated, but just fit the plot.

What's even better is that Arima Guixiang seems to be infected by her opponent, and her acting performance is better than usual.

Kei Fujiwara showed the pain of the male protagonist "Watanabe"'s secret love.

Arima Keika also acted out the panic of the heroine "Ueto Terumi" when she found out that her friend had been secretly in love with her.

Sato Wataru patted his thigh desperately, great!

Nishimura Taro also opened his mouth in surprise. What did this kid do? He looked like a movie star.

Hey, hey, why are you so expressive? It won’t be officially broadcast anyway!

If you're like this, how can you act when Hayato Kimura comes back?

"Ka! Very good..." Sato Hayato looked at Fujiwara Kei, "Passed."

Kei Fujiwara's contemporaries who were snooping on the side were also in an uproar. What did this kid do? He actually passed one?

Kei Fujiwara spent a whole day filming and found that acting is indeed a physically demanding job, no less demanding than being a director's assistant.

It was getting late and the scene was over. Keixiang Arima and her agent specially found Kei Fujiwara and gave him a Daifuku dessert, "Thank you for your hard work, Fujiwara-kun. You performed very well today. It was a pleasure working with you."

Kei Fujiwara took the gift and said, "Thank you very much, Miss Arima. This is what I should do."

"I heard from Ms. Arima that Fujiwara-kun's acting skills are already at the level of a professional actor. Maybe Fujiwara-kun has plans to become an actor?"

In fact, Arima Katsura's original words were: This stuntman's performance is much better than that of Kimura Hayato, so we might as well ask Supervisor Sato to replace Kimura.

Of course, these are just angry words. Arima Keixiang is very dissatisfied with Kimura Hayato's various actions without a sense of responsibility, and she is venting her anger.

"Thank you for the compliment, but I don't have any thoughts in front of the screen for the time being. I want to be the main creator behind the scenes." Fujiwara Kei said with a smile.

Kei Fujiwara really said this out of sincerity. In Japan, the status of the behind-the-scenes creators, such as well-known directors, veteran screenwriters, and well-known producers, is much higher than that of actors.

Moreover, the income of Japanese actors is not high (compared to other countries), so from an economic perspective, becoming a screenwriter or writer is the most cost-effective way.

The main reason why Japanese actors are not well paid is the tacit understanding reached between the five major private broadcasters and film and television production companies, so as to prevent an actor from asking for excessive prices after becoming famous and increasing the cost of the producer.

In addition, after actors become famous, they must always pay attention to their words and deeds. Sometimes when they meet ardent fans, they hide under their own beds, hide in their own closets, and use their own toothbrushes, which is really unbearable for their hearts.

Just one Mrs. Yoshihara has almost stopped Kei Fujiwara's heart. A few more will probably send him away directly.

What's more, acting is really tiring!

"Really, it's a pity. But talented people will make achievements in whatever they do."

The agent is a good person, and she seems to see some kind of elite temperament in Kei Fujiwara. She always feels that although this person is just a small person now, he may skyrocket in the future. If you say more good things, you will never lose money.

"You are overly complimentary." Kei Fujiwara bowed slightly.

In the next few days, Kei Fujiwara temporarily put aside his AD work and has been cooperating with Keika Arima in acting.

Arima Keika is an actress who takes filming very seriously, but since the filming of "In the Name of Love" started, she has never been able to find the feeling of "Ueto Terumi".

She tried hard to feel the character, but she always felt that she was separated from the character.

But in the past few days, when she and Kei Fujiwara were acting opposite each other, they would describe each other's understanding of the characters and the story. This actually made her feel the shadow of the character "Ueto Terumi" in a trance, and she transferred herself to

Also get into the shadow of this character.

It's a pity that the drama is already halfway through. If this feeling can be found from the beginning, Arima Keixiang believes that she can perform better.

Therefore, in the process of acting, a good opponent is really important!
