This actor needs more money

After chatting with Huang Bo, Ding Xiu ate, took a nap, and started putting on makeup and filming at two o'clock in the afternoon.

What I will be filming soon is a scene opposite Li Xuejian.

Feng Jingyao asked Ding Li to kill Xu Wenqiang.

"Brother Xiu, do you think your beard fits like this?" In the dressing room, the makeup artist asked after finishing the styling.

In the mirror, Ding Li's appearance has undergone some changes from before. At the beginning, Ding Li was a young loser, with a very depressed appearance, unshaven, and greasy and messy hair.

Followed by Feng Jingyao, he became a younger brother, clean shaven, meticulously groomed hair, and put on a suit.

Now Ding Li has successfully risen to the position and has become a popular figure in front of Feng Jingyao. He has independent management and many brothers. In front of Feng Jingyao, even Xu Wenqiang is not favored by him.

As your status changes, your clothing style must also change.

The most obvious thing is that his hair is slicked back and a beard is stuck on his lips. He looks more mature and stable. Coupled with the specially customized expensive suit, he has a vague aura of a boss.

"Let's trim your eyebrows." Ding Xiu raised his head, glanced at himself in the mirror and said.

His eyebrows are a bit messy, which is not in line with the style of a big shot.

"Okay." The makeup artist thought for a while and said, "How about the eyebrows that are raised up?"

Ding Xiu shook his head: "No, just do it a little bit and tidy it up."

Jian Mei's eyebrows are just like Xu Wenqiang's, so boring, and they clash with his costume drama eyebrows.

In the costume dramas I filmed before, they were basically all about sword-shaped eyebrows, and they were both handsome and handsome, which was a bit boring.

Standing in front of Ding Xiu, wearing makeup and horse steps, he picked up the razor and whispered: "Brother Xiu, please close your eyes."

Hearing the sound, Ding Xiu cooperated.

The blade of the knife cuts across the eyebrows, making a swiping sound. In less than a minute, the eyebrow trimming is completed.

"Okay, you can open your eyes now."

Ding Xiu opened his eyes, looked at himself in the mirror again, and said, "It really has to be more pleasing to the eye."

Picking up the courtesy and putting it on his head, Ding Xiu put his hands in his pockets and left gracefully.

The makeup artist was left stunned.

The moment Ding Xiu opened his eyes, he was a little distracted. He had to admit that the role of Ding Li seemed to be tailor-made for him. Both the appearance and temperament fit perfectly.

With his back, beard, and suit, wherever he sat, there was no trace of Ding Xiu at all.

Outside the door, Huang Xiaoming was about to put on makeup, and happened to meet Ding Xiu. The two had been shooting together for so many days, and they were already very familiar. They chatted when they had something to say, and nodded when they had nothing to say, as if they had said hello.

"Brother Qiang."

"Ah?" Huang Xiaoming was stunned for a second, then recovered: "Brother Xiu, what do you want from me?"

"fine."

Ding Xiu shook his head and left. What could he do to Huang Xiaoming? He just wanted to say hello. He didn't know where the misunderstanding came from.

He couldn't help but look back at Ding Xiu's back. Huang Xiaoming's eyes were deep and he didn't know what he was thinking.

On the set, it was not yet time to start work, but the staff were setting up the scene and adjusting the camera positions.

Ding Xiu sat on the chair with his name written on it, holding a thermos cup in his hand. Next to him, Zhao Liying read the script to him. The two of them spoke one sentence at a time, very fast.

"Do you know where Xu Wenqiang is?"

"have no idea."

"Is Xu Wenqiang nice to you, or am I nice to you?"

"Mr. Feng once said that friendship is the most important thing in a world. Without Brother Qiang, Ding Li would not be what he is today. I don't want to be a treacherous person."

Zhao Liying read Li Xuejian's script, while Ding Xiu read Ding Li's script.

In fact, everyone has already reviewed the lines very early, but it took a long time and there were too many words, so the memory is a bit fuzzy.

It was a bit embarrassing to go directly to Li Xuejian and waste his time.

So Ding Xiu asked the director for a copy of Li Xuejian's script, and asked Zhao Liying to confront him when he had nothing to do.

The key to dialogue is not to memorize the other person's lines, but to be familiar with them so that you have a solid foundation when performing. Otherwise, if you say something unexpected, the performance will not be authentic.

That's why the two people's dialogue speed is so fast.

"Xiao Ding, we're about to go on stage, are you still speaking to each other?" Li Xuejian, who had put on makeup, came to Ding Xiu and said hehe.

Of course, Ding Xiu would not say that his memory is a bit fuzzy, but said: "Reviewing the past makes me learn something new. Every time I listen to the lines one more time, my understanding of the character becomes deeper."

There was nothing I could do about it. Li Xuejian matched too many words with him every time. There were several scenes at a time, with seven or eight thousand words.

It’s not like we have to take pictures every day. Sometimes we only take pictures once every few days. Who can remember?

No, Li Xuejian remembers it.

All I can say is that she is indeed an experienced actor. She has been in the entertainment industry for so many years and her memory is not limited.

Every time Ding Xiu had a dialogue with him, he responded fluently. At first, Ding Xiu thought he was just dedicated.

It wasn't until Li Xuejian told him once during the process that he had a few wrong words in his lines that he realized that the other party had most likely memorized all his lines.

Ding Xiu was shocked at that time.

He knew how thick his script was. They were the lines of a play. Li Xuejian not only memorized Feng Jingyao's script, but also Ding Li's. His memory was beyond description as terrifying.

Taking off his black sunglasses and wiping them, Li Xuejian smiled and said, "Really? Tell me, what new understanding do you have this time?"

Next to her, Zhao Liying felt nervous, a little worried for Ding Xiu.

Ding Xiu said seriously: "I think the lines for this scene need to be changed."

"Who changes, you or me? Why?"

It was clear that they were just discussing a small matter, and Li Xuejian's tone was very relaxed, but the atmosphere was inexplicably a bit solemn.

Li Xuejian's subtext seems to say, if you kid can't say one, two, three, four, don't blame me for cutting you.

Meeting Li Xuejian's gaze, Ding Xiu said calmly: "Mr. Feng once said that friendship is the most important thing in the world. Without Brother Qiang, Ding Li would not be where he is today. I don't want to be a treacherous person."

"After Ding Li said this, I want to add another sentence later."

"What to add?"

"But now that I am working for Mr. Feng, I naturally belong to Mr. Feng. I will do whatever Mr. Feng tells me. I have always had this attitude."

"Hahaha!" Li Xuejian laughed: "It's interesting."

According to the script, Ding Li wanted to intercede with Feng Jingyao here, begging him to let Xu Wenqiang go. In the end, Feng Jingyao refused, and he could only carry out the task in tears.

The main highlights of this scene are Ding Li's love and justice and Feng Jingyao's ruthlessness.

But if Ding Xiu changes like this, Ding Li's image will change. There won't be so many mothers-in-law, but only stability and deep city mansion.

Everyone knows that he is Xu Wenqiang's good brother. The two have a life-long friendship and can trust each other with their lives.

But when receiving the task of killing Xu Wenqiang, Ding Li said one second he should value love and justice, and the next second he said he should listen to Mr. Feng.

"Have you decided how to act?"

"No, I was just about to ask Teacher Li for advice."

"Then let's discuss it..."
