After getting Shidi at the start

Chapter 84

Now that it has been said, and in front of Weng Chenxi, Li Mingji's attitude seems to be okay on the surface, director Zhang has lost those taboos, and then said: "Actually, the difficulties encountered in filming now , are still within my expectations..."

Of course, it is impossible to meet expectations, and I never thought it would be so difficult.

After all, there is still a gap between imagination and reality. Of course, this is not because he expected Li Mingji and Qin Yi to perform better, but because he found that the standard he set at the beginning seems to be a bit high.

In fact, if you just regard this as an idol drama, Li Mingji's current performance is barely enough.

In Li Mingji's previous life, those 4V idol dramas that were exaggerated to the point of exaggeration and whose acting skills were so poor that it was almost impossible to watch, really made people think "I can do it too", weren't they also the youth of a generation?

Compared with them, Li Mingji is at least still acting seriously—well, it’s the kind where you can see his hard work but the effect is not very good, but you will admire his hard work but feel strange that his hard work has no effect.

However, Director Zhang is a bit of a perfectionist in his bones, and he attaches great importance to this rare big production. Some things cannot be explained clearly, so he can only use this method of grinding slowly, hoping to achieve good results. .

Facts have proved that some people can slowly grind it out, like Li Mingji's Manshen in his previous life, from a vase to the actress with the highest and most complete honor in Chinese movies, isn't it just from being trained by the King of Sunglasses and slowly grinding it out in the play acting skills?

But most people can't use this set. The more you grind, the worse the effect may be.

Li Mingji is not getting worse. Although his patience is not very good, after making a decision, he will still force himself to do it patiently, and the effect will not be bad. However, if he wants to meet the director's requirements, he will have to do it patiently. It's very difficult.

But now that he got Director Zhang's suggestion, he seems to know where his problem is.

But in this respect, he is still a bit too good at it. Even if he knows it, he is still a little confused about how to do it.

Anyway, I have already asked this point, so I might as well ask more, so he scratched his head and said to the director: "Improving self-confidence is easier said than done, and I feel that I still need a little more on-site guidance.

"For example, in the previous filming, what do you think I did not do well? I hope to write it down, go back and think about it, so as not to make the same mistake next time."

Director Zhang couldn't help but looked at him in surprise. He actually asked such detailed questions, as if he was really not joking. He really wanted to ask for advice, hoping to improve his acting skills.

For some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of relief.

Nodding his head, Director Zhang really smiled and began to guide: "Do you know what your biggest problem was just now?"

"What is it?"

"You are unconsciously playing a bodyguard in the way you used to play a domineering president."

"Pfft~" Weng Chenxi couldn't help laughing, the words seemed to speak to her heart, and she felt the same when she was watching from the side just now.

Li Mingji couldn't help being a little embarrassed, thinking that he didn't even understand how to play a domineering president, how could he become a domineering president?
"Although both are expressionless, which is what we commonly call facial paralysis, there are still obvious differences between the two characters. Of course, they are mainly idol dramas like the boss, and the requirements for acting skills are relatively low, so It really doesn't matter how you behave."

Low EQ: Your acting skills are poor
High EQ: You are suitable to play the boss, and the boss has low requirements for acting skills

"But it can't be like this here, you know? The male lead has no expression on his face, but he is not the kind of mentality that I am too lazy to talk to you, but this is not my scope of responsibility and has nothing to do with me.

"When the female number two was talking to him just now, she was also testing him. What he showed was the attitude of not looking for me, having nothing to do with me, and I don't want to know anything, not your indifference, indifference What it is, it’s better to have it or not.”

"That is to say——I don't know if I understand this correctly. It should have been a clear rejection, but I didn't show any intention of rejection?"

"Hey, yes, that's the right understanding. You can frown, show disgust, and rejection, as long as you don't laugh, do you understand? But don't act like, oops, I don't care, just finish talking and leave quickly——" attitude, do you understand?"

Li Mingji nodded thoughtfully. Although it was only a subtle difference, the audience might not even notice it when they watched it, but speaking of it this way, it did have a great impact.

Acting itself starts with the small things in mind, if you don't care about the small details, then don't even think about expressing it well.

"When you go back tonight, just think about it first. I'll see if it's possible tomorrow and take another shot to see how it works. If it's good, it means you've figured it out."

Li Mingji nodded vigorously, and then said: "And that, if the director doesn't perform well at that time, you can tell me on the spot, or even scold me. It's best to wake me up on the spot."

"Ah..." Director Zhang hesitated, "But if you do this, your self-confidence may be hit even more. Are you sure you can do it?"

Criticism itself is a double-edged sword. It can be a driving force to stimulate people's progress, but it may also make people feel bored, avoided, or even reversed.

Director Zhang didn't know which type Li Mingji would belong to, but he saw Li Mingji patted his chest with a smile and said, "Don't worry about this, I still have the endurance to bear it. And the problem is out, I can know the direction, It actually helped with my confidence.”

In short, there are advantages and disadvantages, it depends on the specific situation on the scene, and also depends on his self-regulation.

Director Zhang sighed, and could only say, "Then let me try..."

"Okay, thank you, director. I'm sorry to bother you..." Li Mingji immediately bowed and thanked, then turned to thank Weng Chenxi: "Thank you for coming with me..."

"What's the point?" Weng Chenxi waved her hands, she was not greedy for credit at all, she really didn't do anything, but watched a show for free.

Yes, for her, it was quite surprising to see Li Mingji like this just now.

Although she didn't have much contact with Li Mingji in private before, she has seen his past and heard various news, and she thinks she knows him well, but she didn't expect that he would There is such a side.

Is this something that Li Mingji in her cognition would do?
Or was her cognition originally wrong?
The three people who had their own thoughts left the scene. Li Mingji shut himself in the room after eating after returning, took out the script and began to ponder over it.

Then I recalled what the director said, and simulated it in the mirror again.

"What exactly do you want to say?" The tone was calm, and the expression was indifferent. This was his previous performance.

"What on earth do you want to say?" He paused every word, lowered his head slightly, raised his eyes slightly, and seemed to stare at the opposite side, which was quite lethal, but seemed a little too aggressive.

"What on earth are you... wanting to say?" The tone slowed down, and he uttered each word clearly, frowning slightly, and tilted his head slightly to look at the opposite side.

"It seems...it has a little smell..."

Touching his cheek, Li Mingji thought about it, and tried several expressions.

In the end, Xiaoguang and Brother Wang were simply brought in and asked them to help watch.

Xiaoguang was still eating, so he simply watched while eating. As a result, he almost spit out his rice without even looking twice, and said with a smile: "Brother Mingji, I can't stand it anymore. I won't eat now, pff~"

"Is it that funny?" Brother Wang squinted at him, frowning slightly.

Xiaoguang immediately covered his mouth and said: "It's not funny, but I feel that Brother Mingji is too serious, Rui Si Bai Rui Si Bai."

You were obviously laughing at me, and you never stopped!

Li Mingji's face was also slightly dark. This kid seemed to be "jumping" more and more. Could it be that his attitude was too good.

Of course, he still knew the seriousness, so he restrained himself quickly, and then watched Li Mingji's performance with Brother Wang and made comments one by one.

After being so busy until eleven o'clock, the three who were a little tired went to rest separately.

At this time, Aya, who hadn't been seen for a long time, came over and knocked on the door and said, "Didn't Brother Mingji say that he wanted to eat this, I was looking for it for a long time before I bought it."

Li Mingji was stunned for a moment when he saw that her hands were covered with bamboo shoots, and then smiled wryly, "I'm just saying..."

He was also on a whim before, and suddenly his mouth was a little itchy, so he raised his mouth. Unexpectedly, Aya really remembered it. No wonder he ran away after the filming was over.

"You are the boss, you should serve the boss." Aya smiled and waved her hands, not paying much attention.

Brother Wang was quite speechless, staring at the two of them, thinking of a celebrity and an assistant, that's it?

The star opened his mouth, and the assistant broke his leg, but just for such a little food, how unreliable is this?
My heart is so tired, fortunately there is Xiaoguang...

"Wow, brother Mingji also likes to eat this? I like it too!" Xiaoguang's eyes lit up, "I haven't eaten for a long time, I really miss it."

Aya immediately smiled and said, "I guessed that you might eat it, so I bought a few more. Brother Wang, come with me."

Brother Wang: "..."

Can I apply for a substitution?

……

Early the next morning, the crew continued to work.

Once the movie starts, except when there is no filming, there are no weekends or holidays.

After all, the crew has to burn money every day of their existence, and if it doesn't work, it's a waste of money. Who has nothing to do with this kind of thing.

If you feel unfair, or too tired to bear it, then you can leave, there are plenty of people who can replace you.

In a crew, only some people are irreplaceable, and most of them are tool people who can be changed as needed.

And at the beginning of today's shooting, Director Zhang really fulfilled his promise yesterday, and decided to make up the last part of last night's segment first, to help Li Mingji find his status.

That is, the part that Li Mingji had been trying last night and asked Brother Wang and the others to help watch.

"Action!"
