Chapter 119 You are so coquettish

Chapter 119 You are so coquettish
"Hey, have you heard? Teacher Jiang will have a role today."

"Teacher Jiang? That Teacher Jiang?"

"It's Jiang Nian, who played Yu Huatian in the filming of Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate some time ago. Teacher Jiang."

"??? Isn't he from the crew of 'Swordsman' next door? How did he come to our crew?"

"You don't know? A few days ago, Teacher Jiang signed a contract with Producer Wu and his team to play the villain of our drama, the Wheel King. Today, Producer Wu and his team discussed it and invited Teacher Jiang to come over to film."

"Fuck, there's such a thing?! We have to go and see it live. But, speaking of the Chakravartin, if I remember correctly, isn't he an ugly, old eunuch? Can Mr. Jiang really play him well?"

"Who knows? Anyway, I heard that Teacher Jiang has already gone to the dressing room to put on makeup. When he comes out, we will know."

"That's true. But I have to say that Mr. Jiang is really a professional eunuch actor. Including Lin Pingzhi in the next-door "Swordsman" and the Wheel King in our play, he has played four eunuchs. I heard from the grapevine that he is still looking for eunuch roles recently. Is he so addicted to this thing?"

"I don't know. Anyway, my personal advice is that it's best not to talk nonsense. It's not a good thing to gossip about others behind their backs. If others find out, you know what I mean, right?"

"understand."

"."

Upon learning that Jiang Nian was coming to film, everyone in the "Sword Rain" crew showed great curiosity.

The discussion about Jiang Nian continued one after another.

There was curiosity in his words.

After all, many of them did not know that Jiang Nian had joined "Sword Rain" before.

In addition, Jiang Nian’s popularity is so high now.

Driven by the mentality of blind obedience, they all want to see what this man who has been in the limelight and enjoying great success in recent times is like in real life and what his acting is like.

Just like that, under the eager gaze of the people.

After an unknown amount of time, the door to the dressing room was pushed open.

It's still some time before noon.

The sun did not reach the top of the mountain.

The warm sunlight at an eighty-degree angle shone on Jiang Nian.

The shadow covered most of Jiang Nian's face, leaving only an outline.

The nose is long, the face is pointed, and the cheeks are fleshless.

That is
"Wolf?!"

Someone in the crowd recognized the shape of the silhouette and let out a light exclamation.

The sound was not loud, but it attracted a lot of people's attention.

"Wolf? Where did the wolf come from?"

"Fuck you, brother, stop it. Where did this wolf come from? Stop talking nonsense!"

There was a commotion among the crowd.

The man who had said it earlier also realized that he had made a mistake and quickly corrected himself, "No, no, the wolf I was talking about was not an animal. I was talking about this person. Look carefully, isn't this person's face a wolf's?"

As soon as the words were spoken, people looked over.

Found that to be the case.

"you are?"

The Korean lead actor, Zheng Yusheng, narrowed his eyes, looking a little confused.

Isn’t it said that the person in the dressing room now is Jiang Nian, who directed them a few days ago?
How come it’s another person coming out now?

Or.
"Are you Teacher Jiang?"

Zheng Yusheng asked half-doubtfully.

Hearing this, Jiang Nian nodded: "It's me."

Then he took a step forward, and the dazzling light was blocked behind his head.

His current appearance also came into everyone's sight.

It was a very old face.

Time is like a rake, carving grooves on his face one after another.

The eye bags are droopy and the nasolabial lines are deep.

Thin cheeks and numb eyes.

He seems to be very honest, but actually, the viciousness and cunning hidden in the deepest part of his eyes and the mustache sticking to his philtrum reveal his inner self. He is not as ordinary as he appears on the surface.

This is also the most core setting of the character of Chakravartin.

He is clearly just a ninth-rank eunuch, but he controls the largest assassination organization in the world, Black Stone.

Therefore, the actor has to portray a contradictory image of being honest and harmless in front of others, but cruel and ruthless behind others, willing to kill an entire family.

And now, looking at people's shocked and unbelievable eyes.

Obviously, Jiang Nian not only achieved this, but also exceeded it.

"Are you really Teacher Jiang?"

Xu Xinyuan, who had spent a crazy night with Jiang Nian, walked up to him with an incredible look on her face and asked.

While asking, she stretched out her hand, wanting to touch Jiang Nian's face.

Seeing this, Jiang Nian was not willing to let her have her way. He slapped her hand and said unhappily, "Just talk if you want to. It's too much to hit her."

He sat there for more than two hours just to do this makeup.

Even he himself is reluctant to touch it, so how can he let you do that?

Jiang Nian glared at Xu Xinyuan unhappily.

Xu Xinyuan smiled awkwardly, quickly withdrew her hand, then turned around and looked at Jiang Nian, admiring him.

The others also recovered by now and couldn't help but discuss:

"The painting is so good. When Teacher Jiang first came out, I didn't even recognize him."

"Who said it wasn't? I even thought the news was wrong. It wasn't Teacher Jiang who was going to perform today, but someone else."

"But if you look closely now, you can still see some signs of Teacher Jiang between his eyebrows."

"It's hard to believe that this is the powerful Yu Huatian."

"Indeed, but if you think about it from another perspective, this might be a true portrayal of Yu Huatian's life in old age."

"Haha, your idea is really wild. But you know what, it does have that meaning."

"."

People were amazed at Jiang Nian's makeup.

Just then, director Su Zhaobing noticed the situation here, walked over and asked, "What are you all doing here? We're going to shoot a scene soon, have you set up the scene?"

As soon as the words fell, the people who were chatting animatedly shut their mouths, dared not say a word, and scattered like birds and beasts.

Seeing this, Su Zhaobing groaned.

Then he looked at Jiang Nian, and when he noticed Jiang Nian's current makeup, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, followed by great joy.

Because Jiang Nian's current makeup is almost the same as the image of the Chakravartin he imagined in his mind!
He couldn't help but step forward and exchange a few words of greeting, and then invited Jiang Nian to follow him to the set to film together.

Although he has not yet started practicing the Chakravartin's techniques, he has his memories.

Jiang Nian played the role of the Chakravartin with great ease.

Momentum, expression, demeanor and tone are all at top level.

Su Zhaobing and Wu Yusen were so excited after watching it.

But it made the actors who acted opposite Jiang Nian complain. Among them, the one who was most influenced by him was the Korean actor Zheng Yusheng.

As the protagonist of this drama, he is also a veteran actor from South Korea.

His acting skills are definitely guaranteed.

Although not as good as those veteran actors, there are rarely any problems.

But today, facing Jiang Nian.

Zheng Yusheng felt like he was back to the time when he first debuted. Chunchun was just a rookie and was outshined by Jiang Nian everywhere.

At first, he was a little unconvinced.

He thought that after all, he had emerged from the group of successful people in South Korea, so he wanted to compete with Jiang Nian.

But slowly, as time went by.

Jung Woo-sung gave up.

Because he discovered something very desperate, that is, Jiang Nian's acting skills are adaptive.

If my acting skills improve, his acting skills will also improve.

Although he is not so strong and domineering that he crushes me everywhere and makes me breathless.

But wanting to surpass him is absolutely nonsense!
"Is this person a monster?"

When the scene ended, Zheng Yusheng sat on the stairs in a daze, looking at Jiang Nian with despair in his eyes.

Big.

The pressure is too much!
The suffocating feeling, as if being entangled by a python, made him doubt whether he was really suited to being an actor.

Seeing him like this, Yu Wenle beside him couldn't help but ask: "Teacher Zheng, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"

Zheng Yusheng shook his head, lit a cigarette, and took a deep breath: "No, I'm just thinking about something."

"what's up?"

"Should I go back to my country to develop my career? Why is it more competitive here than here?"

Zheng Yusheng was a little defensive.

Hearing this, Yu Wenle: “???”

Jiang Nian didn't know that Zheng Yusheng lost his dream because of him.

He just finished shooting today's scenes. Seeing that it was still early, he looked at Wu Yusen who was about to finish work and said, "Producer Wu, I'm in such a good mood today and my makeup looks good. Isn't it a bit of a waste to stop like this? How about shooting a little more?"

After hearing this, Wu Yusen was slightly stunned.

He looked at Jiang Nian in surprise, obviously not expecting Jiang Nian to make this suggestion.

It’s not that in all his years in the film industry, he has never seen anyone take the initiative to add more shots.

But given your status as Jiang Nian, this doesn't seem like something you could say, right?

You know, in the film and television industry, the more talented a person is, the more arrogant they tend to be.

Take Liang Chaowei for example.

When filming "Infernal Affairs", Brother Hua, one of the Four Heavenly Kings, stayed in the crew for 24 hours a day, frantically studying the script and trying to figure out the role.

But what about Liang Chaowei?
I go to work on time every day, get into the role in a second when I arrive at the scene, and leave as soon as I finish filming.

Not to mention working overtime, he didn't even say hello, and was very arrogant without any hesitation.

Even his wife Liu Jialing complained that Liang Chaowei only came back from work for three or four hours every day, and that Liang Chaowei was at home before taking a nap, so why was Liang Chaowei still at home after waking up?

In Wu Yusen's eyes.

Jiang Nian is a genius like Liang Chaowei, or even more talented than Liang Chaowei.

Such a genius actively asked to work overtime.
"Okay, I'll arrange it for you right away. Teacher Jiang, what kind of movie do you want to shoot?" Wu Yusen asked.

Jiang Nian thought for a moment and said, "It's all fine. I'm not picky. Just arrange it as you see fit. My only request is that we take as many photos as we can today. This makeup is too troublesome."

Wu Yusen understood:
"Got it. Stagehands, props, get everything ready. We'll be shooting the next scene soon. Let's work harder today and finish shooting Teacher Jiang's scenes for the next two or three days."

"Then, finance, you get ready. The brothers are all very busy today. We have to hand out red envelopes after the shoot. Hurry up, everyone, get moving! Finish the shoot early and rest early."

As his words fell.

Those who were originally reluctant to work overtime suddenly became energetic and got busy.

Seeing this, Xu Xinyuan next to him looked at Jiang Nian and teased, "Teacher Jiang, you are quite good at making trouble. With this order, everyone got busy."

Hearing this, Jiang Nian shrugged his shoulders and said, "I can't help it. He's too handsome. It would take me an hour or two to draw him ugly. It's too troublesome. If I want to improve efficiency, I can only inconvenience you."

"Hey, hey, hey, Mr. Jiang, you are too narcissistic."

"Put aside whether I'm narcissistic or not, just tell me if I'm handsome or not."

"Handsome, handsome, handsome. Teacher Jiang, you are the most handsome. I can't help myself every time I see you. I miss you so much." Xu Xinyuan raised the corners of her mouth and looked charming.

Seeing her like this, Jiang Nian hesitated for a moment and said, "Then you are really slutty. My suggestion is that if you can't bear it anymore, use your slippers to pat it."

"???" Xu Xinyuan was stunned for a moment, and then she got angry: "Hey, it's not Jiang Nian, you are a dog, you are talking like a human? Huh?"

Jiang Nian looked puzzled: "Isn't that what you said? What? Do you think the slippers are not strong enough?"

"You..." Xu Xinyuan's tone suddenly became stiff: "It's boring, I don't want to play anymore, I'm going to change clothes, bye!"

After saying that, she turned around and left angrily.

At this moment, Jiang Nian's voice came faintly from behind: "Look, you're still anxious."

Xu Xinyuan: “.”

"No, you're going too far, aren't you? Chasing and killing me?"

Actually, it is about the story of the Chakravartin.

It’s not too much, and it’s not too little either.

If everything goes well in one take, with Jiang Nian's shooting speed, he will be able to officially finish filming in a week at most.

But obviously, it is unrealistic to mobilize the entire crew to film only him.

Because there are many scenes that can be reused.

For example, now.

Standing in the room, watching Xu Xinyuan's male stand-in, shirtless and wearing crotchless pants, stab Ye Zhanqing's husband to death with a knife.

This scene can be reused.

Just remove the blackout cloth and change the scenery.

"Teacher Xu, do you need a substitute?"

Before filming began, producer Wu Yusen asked this question.

After all, this scene happened after Ye Zhanqing and Lei Bin attacked and killed Jiang Asheng, and Ye Zhanqing was injured and came to the Wheel King for treatment.

Ye Zhanqing will expose her back, and when she is deeply passionate, she will kiss the Wheel King passionately.

Not all actresses can appear for art like Ms. Tang in "Lust, Caution".

So you have to ask the other person for their opinion.

Hearing this, Xu Xinyuan, who had just changed into a blue coarse linen dress, smiled slightly: "It's okay, it's not a big deal, it's just some simple intimate scenes, I can still accept it."

"it is good."

After hearing what she said, Wu Yusen didn't waste any words and directly pressed the beater.

The classic scene of "Sword Rain" - Zhan Qingwen Chicken, has officially started filming!
