This star’s style is wrong

"Be elegant, stand aloof from the world, and be independent from the world."

The crew started filming the scenes of Concubine Jing, and Liu Minxiu's performance has actually reached the average standard of TV dramas.

However, Fang Xing's requirements were higher. He wanted the audience to be attracted by Jing Fei's image and temperament at first sight: "Let's do another one. It's best to have the feeling of a lotus growing every step of the way."

Liu Minxiu covered her mouth with the big sleeves of her palace dress and said with a smile: "The requirements are really high. Lotus flowers grow every step of the way. Do I want to become an immortal?"

"This is the feeling I want." Fang Xing nodded in agreement.

"Okay. Let's do it again." Liu Minxiu stepped back into the mirror.

Today's scene is about Concubine Jing walking through the imperial garden. The purpose is to reflect Concubine Jing's character.

Fang Xing waved to the crew and asked the crew to go up and straighten Liu Minxiu's skirt.

"Everyone has it, and the scorer is on the board."

"25 scenes, 3 shots and 5 shots."

Snapped!

Liu Minxiu wore plain palace clothes and walked through the garden and corridor in an elegant manner.

The camera followed her position and captured the entire scene as she walked down the corridor.

There was no "Mei Changsu" scene in today's filming, so Fang Xing didn't even put on makeup and just sat in the director's seat, looking at the monitor.

"Ka! This is over. Transition." Fang Xing finished watching the footage on the monitor and announced that the scene was finished.

The next scene will be shot in the harem.

It is a rival play between "Concubine Jing" and "Emperor Liang".

The actor who plays "Liang Di" is an old artist specially invited by Fang Xing from the Provincial Theater.

The role of "Liang Di" is also very difficult to perform, especially the scenes near the finale. The requirements for acting skills can be said to be one of the most difficult scenes in the whole play.

Fortunately, Fang Xing had a target for the actor who would play "Liang Di" from the beginning, so the casting process went smoothly.

Fang Xing saw Ding Hongshan's play on TV and felt that he was very suitable to play the role of Liang Di, so he went directly to the Provincial Theater to hire him.

Ark Culture is already well-known in the TV drama circle, so it is much easier to invite actors.

After all, actors don’t want to miss out on a good script.

Therefore, it only took two hours to cast the role of "Emperor Liang" by veteran actor Ding Hongshan of the Provincial Theater.

The "Liang Emperor" played by Ding Hongshan is a bit rich, but his character is suspicious and a bit moody.

In "Nirvana in Fire", being with such an emperor is like walking on thin ice.

Concubine Jing can be a transparent person in the harem without fighting against the world, and she can also raise her unpopular son "Prince Jing". If she didn't have some skills, she really wouldn't be able to do it.

The scene transitioned to Concubine Jing’s Zhiluo Palace.

The scenery of Zhiluo Palace has been decorated.

Ding Hongshan, who plays the role of "Emperor Liang", has also put on makeup and is walking around with the assistant director in Zhiluo Palace.

Now Ark Culture’s crew team is getting better and better, and the shooting plan is well coordinated.

Fang Xing and Zhang Yigao were filming the scene of Concubine Jing in the Royal Garden, and the assistant director was already in charge of setting the scenery for the next scene and scheduling the actors.

After finishing the previous shooting, you can switch scenes and start shooting directly.

Fang Xing walked into Zhiluo Palace, took a look at the scenery, and said, "Remove the incense and add a pot of flowers here. Have you gone to see Concubine Jing in person?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Minxiu's voice came from outside the palace: "Okay, okay, I'm so urgent."

Fang Xing looked at Ding Hongshan and asked, "Do the two teachers want to check their lines first?"

"I don't think it's necessary, just go for it."

Ding Hongshan said, stood up and walked to the palace door and said, "I will come in from here after the palace maid reports."

"Yes, this shot is relatively simple. After one pass, we will move into literary drama." Fang Xing motioned to the camera to prepare.

"Okay." Ding Hongshan nodded.

In this scene, "Emperor Liang" heard that the queen insulted Concubine Jing and was mean, so he came to Zhiluo Palace to take a look.

Concubine Jing was originally a medical girl in the Lin Mansion. She was sent to the palace by "Lin Xie" to take care of Concubine Chen.

She was born as a medical girl, but in the eyes of the eminent queen, her status was indeed low.

In this scene, the palace maid's announcement was filmed first, and then "Emperor Liang" walked into Zhiluo Palace.

This shot is very simple. Based on the experience of an experienced actor like Ding Hongshan, it is basically done once.

"Everyone has it, and the scorer is on the board."

Snapped!

Ding Hongshan, wearing a dragon robe, walked in from outside the palace.

"Click!"

It was really a one-shot process, because there were no lines, just a few steps, so there was no need to reshoot the material.

"Get ready for the second shot."

Fang Xing waved the script rolled into a tube in his hand, and then walked up to play with Liu Minxiu and Ding Hongshan.

Ding Hongshan is an actor who has his own ideas. He took the initiative and said: "I will lean on the couch later. Is that okay?"

"Okay, wait until Concubine Jing and the maids undress you before you get on the bed." Fang Xing added.

"Okay." Ding Hongshan nodded.

After chatting with Ding Hongshan, Fang Xing turned to Liu Minxiu and said, "Today's scene is very important. In this scene, Prince Jing expressed that he has participated in the seizure of the legitimate son. Concubine Jing knew that she could no longer be a transparent person, and she had to block those in the harem from her son. The roads were cleared of all people.

"So, starting from this scene, Concubine Jing officially started a bloodless fight.

"Emperor Liang is already old and naturally has many old ailments in his body.

"Concubine Jing is a medical woman and has good massage techniques. This scene relies on her massage techniques to win the favor of Emperor Liang.

"It can be seen from this scene that Concubine Jing has been in the harem for twenty years. She has such a massage skill, but she never used it to compete for favor. It was not until her son was competing for the throne that she started to take action.

"It can be seen that Concubine Jing's character is not fighting for herself, but fighting for her son."

Liu Minxiu listened carefully, nodded and replied, "Understood."

Fang Xing arranged the positions and angles of Liu Minxiu and Ding Hongshan, and then prepared to start shooting: "If there is no problem, we will start."

"No problem." Ding Hongshan raised his hand and made an OK gesture.

Field recorder.

"26 scenes, 2 shots and 1 shot."

Snapped!

The two began to perform. Liu Minxiu's "Jing Fei" said that she wanted to give "Liang Di" a massage.

The "Liang Emperor" played by Ding Hongshan undressed and lay on the couch.

Liu Minxiu stepped forward and gently rubbed his shoulders.

The two began to speak their lines, and Ding Hongshan looked like an old father and sighed: "I have neglected you, mother and son, in these years."

Concubine Jing and Prince Jing have indeed not been favored over the years, and it can indeed be said that they have been left out in the cold.

However, the reason for this is not that Concubine Jing is incapable of competing for favor, but simply has no interest in competing for favor.

Now that her son "Prince Jing" was involved in the fight for the heir, she had to use her massage skills to gain the emperor's attention.

The acting skills of both actors are very good. The first time they performed, they were very good.

However, Fang Xing still stepped forward and made some adjustments before starting to take the second shot.

…

After Liu Minxiu joined the crew, the filming scenes focused on "Concubine Jing".

Wang Kai's filming sessions have been reduced.

Because when Wang Kai was at Huahuo Media, his daily work schedule was very full, and sometimes he only had one day off every month.

After Ark Culture acquired Huahuo Media, many jobs were turned down, but there were still some jobs that had already been signed and could not be turned down.

Therefore, when the crew was focusing on filming Liu Minxiu's scenes, Wang Kai came over with his agent to discuss asking for leave.

"Director Fang, Ah Kai has taken on a lot of work before, and there are some that he really can't turn down, so he needs to take two days off to finish the work that he can't turn away, and then he can concentrate on filming." Wang Kai's agent said Explain the situation.

Wang Kai's agent is his original agent.

Since Wang Kai became famous because of "The Pretender", Liu Shijie has concentrated on managing the company and is not responsible for the agent's work. He has found another agent for Wang Kai.

After Fang Xing acquired Huahuo Media, he asked Wang Kai if he wanted to return his agent.

Wang Kai said there was no need to change, so his agent stayed on.

Situations like this are very common among film crews.

It is common for actors to have other jobs and take time off to attend events.

Even if they don't take time off, the leading actors will have a few days off every month.

It is an actor's freedom to go out to pick up work during breaks.

Of course, if it is a strong production crew, it will be very objectionable to actors asking for leave.

If Ark Culture is responsible for arranging the actors' work, the actors will not be given other jobs during the time when the crew is starting production.

However, Huahuo Media was not originally part of Ark Culture.

Wang Kai is Huahuo Media's only profitable artist, and he has already taken on a lot of work.

All the work that can be pushed away has been pushed away. The rest cannot be pushed away and can only be completed intensively.

Qiao Yinghong has already said hello about this matter.

Because Qiao Yinghong was responsible for adjusting Wang Kai's work plan.

"Okay, I'll ask the crew to make arrangements and give you two days to come back as soon as you finish your work." Fang Xing agreed.

"No problem, I'll finish all the work in these two days." Wang Kai immediately nodded in agreement.

…

The crew continued filming that morning, and Wang Kai asked for leave and left the crew.

Although there is no role for Wang Kai in the two-day shooting plan, there are scenes where Wang Kai is needed to co-star.

However, acting does not necessarily have to be done by the actors themselves.

For example, a scene that only requires a back view can be completed with a stand-in.

If it is a long shot, you can also use a stand-in, and then use the lens to blur the facial features.

This shooting method is often used in the filming of film and television dramas.

In these two days, we mainly filmed the scenes of "Concubine Jing". When "Prince Jing" was needed, a stunt double was used.

When "Prince Jing" was photographed, it was always from his back.

The few scenes that require frontal shots can be saved for reshoots after Wang Kai returns to the crew.

…

After Wang Kai left the crew, he went to shoot a commercial in the morning and a magazine cover in the afternoon.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, I rushed to participate in a brand promotion event.

This brand is the clothing endorsed by Wang Kai.

The event was scheduled a week in advance. In order to increase the popularity of the event, the brand publicized Wang Kaihui's participation in the event a week in advance.

Since Wang Kai has recently been at the center of the casting controversy in "Nirvana in Fire" and "Spring Night in the Furong Tent", entertainment reporters have been squatting outside the film and television base these days, just to get exclusive news about Wang Kai.

However, Wang Kai has always stayed in the crew and has never gone out.

As a result, entertainment reporters stayed there for several days and couldn't take any photos.

This brand event was announced to be attended by Wang Kai, which immediately attracted many entertainment reporters and packed the venue.

Wang Kai participated in brand activities, signed the brand's clothes on the spot, and then gave them to the fans at the scene.

According to the brand's request, Wang Kai also sang a song.

The event lasted for two hours. At the end, the reporters at the scene requested that a reporter's question session be added.

Originally, the brand did not arrange this session, but all the live entertainment reporters requested that a question-and-answer session be added. The brand agreed as it thought it could increase the popularity of the event.

However, at the beginning of the question-and-answer session, the reporter's questions had nothing to do with the brand's clothing. They were all about Wang Kai's role change.

Exciting News reporter: "Mr. Wang Kai, it is rumored that the crews of "Nirvana in Fire" and "Furong" are competing fiercely for you. Is this true?"

Wang Kai has participated in many activities in the past two years and has already had experience in answering reporters' questions: "I don't know where these rumors come from. I just read the script and take the role normally."

Exciting News Reporter: "So, have the crew of "Furong" approached you?"

Wang Kai was silent for a few seconds before replying: "The company has arranged an audition."

Stirring News Reporter: "So, you auditioned for "Furong", but in the end you let them go, is that right?"

Wang Kai knows that this question is very tricky. If the answer is not good, there may be a public opinion crisis:

"From the time I started in the industry to today, I have auditioned not only for one thousand, but also for eight hundred crews. On average, I audition for one crew every day.

"If you let go after the audition, then the doves I let go can fill a square."

His answer was not a lie.

However, the period when there were a large number of auditions for the crew was before the filming of "The Pretender".

After filming "The Pretender", he became an instant hit. After that, the crew took the initiative to hand over the script to him, and auditions were rarely rejected.

However, after the audition, as long as there is no contract, there is no contractual relationship, so there is no such thing as letting go.

This situation is normal in the film and television industry, but the reporter's questions are too tricky. If he admits it directly, it will definitely be twisted into something else.

Agitated News Reporter: "Is it true that Ark Culture acquired Huahuo Media?"

Wang Kai responded with a smile: "I am just a contracted actor of Huahuo Media and do not participate in the management of the company. So I don't know about this matter."

Regarding the acquisition of Huahuo Media by Ark Culture, it is not a secret in the investment banking circle.

Huahuo Media has experienced very frequent personnel changes during this period, and employees who have resigned or changed jobs have spread the word throughout the city.

Reporter from Exciting News: "There is a saying in the circle now that Fang Xing invested 50 million to buy your agency in order to snatch you away from Chen Wenhan. What do you think of this matter?"

This question completely pricked the fans' gossip soul.

Wang Kai was a little embarrassed. He glanced at the brand, but saw that the brand had no intention of coming to the rescue, so he had to reply: "I have never heard of this statement, and I am not that important. I am just a person who wants to act seriously. Little actor.”

Exciting News Reporter: "Mr. Wang Kai, you have now joined the crew of "Nirvana in Fire", right?"

Finally encountered a more normal question, Wang Kai answered readily: "Yes, filming of our new drama has started."

However, the reporter changed the topic and asked: "Then why didn't you accept "Furong" instead of "Nirvana in Fire"? Was it the capital that asked you to make this decision, or was it your own decision?"

Wang Kai thought about it and replied seriously: "When I first got "Nirvana in Fire", I stayed up late to read the script. I liked the script very much. I am very happy to work with the Ark Culture crew again."

Exciting News Reporter: "That is to say, you think the script of "Warm Spring Night in the Furong Tent" is not as good as the script of "Nirvana in Fire", is that true?"

Wang Kai's eyes widened and he realized that he had been tricked. He quickly denied it: "I didn't feel that way."

Just denying it doesn't help.

That night, entertainment gossip broke out on the Internet:

[Wang Kai frankly said that he participated in "Nirvana in Fire" because the script of "Warm Spring Night in the Lotus Tent" was not as good as "Nirvana in Fire". 】

After this explosive news came out, entertainment reporters began to squat outside the crew of "Warm Spring Night in the Furong Tent", preparing to dig up more entertainment gossip.
