After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn - Chapter 155

[Chapter 154]

The plot of Shen Yu and Yan Sheng meeting for the first time in the movie will not exceed two minutes in the final film. If it is placed on the bones of the old drama, it is estimated that it will be a plot that has been repeated. At best, NG two or three times, and then find and make up for the lens. Director Xu, taking into account Shen Yu’s acting skills, specially reserved a morning. Make sure that Shen Yu’s acting skills will not be too tragic under the comparison of many celebrities. However, even so, Xu Musen found that he still overestimated Shen Yu’s ability –

this scene took a long time to shoot, and it was only after 4 o’clock in the afternoon that it barely met Director Xu’s requirements. By the time the props team and the lighting camera set up the set for the next scene, it was getting dark.

Fortunately, Tao Mu and Yan Sheng played against each other in a bar, and the filming was not affected by day or night outside.

Tao Mu, who had been sitting behind Director Xu watching the monitor while watching Yan Sheng’s acting skills, got up and walked into the set. The makeup artist stepped forward to touch up Tao Mu and Yan Sheng. Yan Sheng didn’t dare to make a big move, so he squinted at Tao Mu with his eyes, and said without moving his lips, “I heard from them, your acting is good.”

Tao Mu also replied blankly, “Yan The actor’s acting skills are also very good.”

Yan Sheng laughed: “Early hearing is false and seeing is true, in the next scene, please Mr. Tao let me see how good your acting skills are.”

“It’s easy to say.” The makeup artist added. After putting on makeup, the assistant came over with a mineral water bottle with a straw inserted. Tao Mu lowered his head and took a sip of water, stood up straight, and looked at Yan Sheng: “You’ll see it soon.”

Yan Sheng’s smile closed slightly, and his always gentle and calm aura suddenly became serious and somewhat aggressive.

The entire set fell silent. The actors who were still on the set huddled around in the corners that the cameras couldn’t scan, and the staff were all in their respective positions. The atmosphere suddenly became tense, as if the arrow was on the string, ready to fire.

Even Director Xu, who was sitting in the director’s chair, couldn’t help straightening his back, leaning forward, and staring straight at the monitor.

The field recorder held the record board and shouted “a” in front of the camera.

The melodious DI dance music suddenly sounded, the extras stood on the dance floor shaking their heads and danced, and the waitress dressed as a bunny girl walked around holding a tray. Yan Di, the hero played by Yan Sheng, was lying in front of the bar and drinking cup by cup, he was as drunk as mud.

I have to admit that Yan Sheng’s acting is really superb. He sat staggeringly on the bar chair, propped up the bar with his elbows, and dragged his body down from time to time. Whether it is the slightly dull and careless eyes, or the details of shaking the wine glass and pouring it into the mouth, people can clearly realize from the body language that this person is using alcohol to relieve their sorrows. You can even observe the bitterness and unwillingness in this person’s heart from the slight trembling of the corners of his mouth, the complex emotions blended with restraint and the tyranny he wants to vent.

Sitting in front of the monitor, Xu Dao’s eyes lit up, and he waved his hand to signal the No. 1 camera to follow up for a close-up of his face and hands. Yan Sheng’s character has always been gentle and approachable. So when he usually acts, he also takes care of his partner’s emotions. Unless it is an old actor with superb acting skills and rich experience like Zhou Yanqing, he will deliberately restrain himself when facing newcomers. It’s rare to see such a shot that starts out with full power and aggressive performance.

It seems like the tranquility before the eruption of the volcano. Although it is smooth and without waves, it is very explosive. It caught everyone’s attention quietly. Even if Yan Sheng didn’t say a word, in the whole scene, no one would be more attractive than him.

The second shot turns to the door of the bar. Contrary to what everyone imagined, the camera did not directly hit Tao Mu’s face, but fixed the feet on the pair of white sneakers.

It seems that she wants to reflect the character’s character through her dress. After joining the gang, Zhou Yuanting, played by Tao Mu, usually wears white and black. Either a white T-shirt, black jeans, or black jeans and white sneakers.

When Tao Mu wrote a character biography, he once analyzed or set Zhou Yuanting’s character to be a bit stinky. He is handsome, and he knows how attractive he is to girls. So even after joining the gang, Tao Mu’s dress is still meticulous and handsome.

But in this scene, Zhou Yuanting, who has always been exquisite, didn’t even notice the loose shoelaces. Walking into the bar step by step, the messy shoelaces seemed to reflect the owner’s mood.

But even so, if Tao Mu can only show this level. I’m afraid that Yan Sheng will be overwhelmed.

Zhou Yuanting walked into the bar, went straight to the bar, and sat beside Yan Di. The slender fingers tapped on the table and asked for a glass of whisky. But I didn’t drink, I played with the crystal glass, the ice cubes in the glass jingled with the shaking. Zhou Yuanting put one hand on Yan Di’s shoulder, still maintaining the good state of the two brothers, and asked Yan Di: “You and Yan Yu are actually brothers, why have you never heard of it?

” Di is still a trained Xiangcheng police officer. His long undercover career kept him on the highest vigilance at all times, not to mention Yan Yu was the family he cared about the most.

Hearing this sentence, Yan Di’s eyes immediately changed. Under the close-up of the camera, Yan Sheng’s pupils suddenly dilated, and his eyes were strikingly bright. Even the muscles around the eye sockets were affected at that moment, showing an extremely shocked micro-expression. However, in just a moment, Yan Di woke up. He glanced at the bartender in the bar calmly. Turning his head to look at Zhou Yuanting, he still remained drunk: “What are you talking about!”

Zhou Yuanting leaned forward and leaned in front of Yan Di. The camera freezes from the side of the two of them, Yan Di is half lying on the bar, and the whole person is in a state of drunkenness. The body is relaxed and the posture is lazy. However, under the bar, Yan Di was stepping on the bar chair, and the right hand hanging by his side was clenched into a fist, but the upper half of his arm was still loose. It expresses a vigilant inner heart but wants to cover up the past emotionally.

Zhou Yuanting, who was sitting next to him, kept the intimate gesture of putting his arm on Yan Di’s shoulder. However, Zhou Yuanting, who should have leaned over with this action, kept a fist distance from his lower body. Under the performance of the camera, it seems that the two brothers with the upper body hooked on the shoulders are good, but the lower body unconsciously maintains a distance. The small detail that slowly moves the two from a mutually trusted partner to a detached opponent has a particularly visual effect.

Xu Dao, who was sitting in front of the monitor, moved his heart and motioned for the camera to take a close-up of Zhou Yuanting’s face.

The second shot moves up Zhou Yuanting’s arm, from the forearm to the shoulder, to the Adam’s apple and then to the chin, and finally shows Zhou Yuanting’s eyes.

The corners of Zhou Yuanting’s mouth still had an accustomed arc. Zhou Yuanting likes to laugh very much. He laughs in a nasty tone, the corners of his mouth rise fiercely, the orbicularis oculi muscle contracts, and the zygomaticus major muscle and the levator anisculus muscle contract together, which makes his smile look particularly full. Coupled with the rich collagen apple muscle of young people, it looks particularly youthful and handsome, with the peculiar spirit of a big boy.

However, now, Zhou Yuanting’s smile is only retained on the lower half of his face, the zygomaticus major muscle is lifted up symbolically, but the orbicularis oculi muscle has not changed, and the dark eyes are deep and emotionless. Suddenly looking at it from the camera, it turned out to be a bit hideous.

From the whole script, this scene is the turning point of Zhou Yuanting’s blackening. It was in this scene that Zhou Yuanting learned that the first undercover candidate selected by the police was Yan Yu, but because of Yan Di’s strong opposition, he eventually became him.

The person who should have successfully graduated from the police academy and become a shining policeman has now become a street gangster who is reviled by everyone. All his family and friends stayed away overnight. Zhou Yuanting’s father was so angry that he had a heart attack and refused to let him enter the house. During his training at school, his training performance was far inferior to that of his peers who were able to wear police uniforms on duty. He can only wander the streets and alleys with a bunch of gangsters every day. From time to time, he would be detained by these same student police officers, squatting in the police station in handcuffs, and lectured him as if they had reprimanded the prisoner.

All this was brought to him by the man in front of him. It’s ridiculous that Zhou Yuanting really regards Yan Di as a partner, and he fantasizes about cooperating with him to complete the task and return to the police station to refresh the file.

In the script, in order to pave the way for Zhou Yuanting’s blackening transformation. In fact, there is a play ahead. It means that Zhou Yuanting accidentally got acquainted with a policeman who used to be an undercover agent. The man had been undercover in the gang for eight years, and finally successfully completed the task and returned to the police station. However, what greeted him was not flowers, applause, and high officials, but the bad habits left on him by years of gang life-making him out of tune with other colleagues in the police station.

“They always say that an officer is an officer, and a thief is a thief. It is only natural for officers and soldiers to catch thieves. But what is an officer and what is a thief?”

“You work in a police station and wear a police uniform to go to work every day. In the den of thieves. You are the thief.”

“I’ve been undercover for eight years, in order to deceive the boss’ trust. I’ve done all kinds of bad things. Knock people, sell drugs, go to prostitutes, you don’t want to do it? But can the police do these things?”

“I went back undercover for eight years . When I arrived at the police station, all the police officers of the same period were promoted to senior inspector. My connections are all over the realm of Xiangcheng. Only I don’t know anyone except on the line. When I go out to deal with people, they still wonder if I will tip off the gang. Before The brothers who helped me block the knife are also comrades on the battlefield. But I have to send them to prison with my own hands…”

“Being undercover has no human rights. One day is a thief and a lifetime is a thief. The officials will not believe you. , the thief is willing to kill you to take revenge. The two sides are not human. You want to get rid of the shadow of these years, how easy it is.”

Later, the undercover police officer was hacked to death by his brother after he was released from prison.

Before that scene, Zhou Yuanting and Du Ze took their brothers to fight with other gangs, and at the last moment they were caught by Yan Yu and the police. It was disappointing to be handcuffed in the police station and squatting to record a statement.

It was in this situation that Zhou Yuanting learned about the brother relationship between Yan Di and Yan Yu, and learned that Yan Di had made others go undercover in order to protect his younger brother.

All the previous foreshadowing and emotional accumulation broke out together in this scene. However, Tao Mu did not film the previous scenes. No emotional buildup requires an immediate explosion. Director Xu was still worried that Tao Mu’s performance would be slightly inferior. After all, Yan Sheng performed very well in this scene.

But I didn’t expect that with Yan Sheng’s wonderful performance, Tao Mu’s acting was even more amazing.

“I said I didn’t know that you and Yan Yu were brothers.” Zhou Yuanting lay beside Yan Di’s ear, his arms changed from hooking his shoulders to his neck: “We are two partners. Zhou Sir let me Cooperate with your work well. And let us trust each other. As a result, Brother Yan, you refused to tell me even such an important thing.”

Zhou Yuanting chuckled, but there was no smile in his eyes: “Brother Yan, did you not tell me from the beginning to the end? Trust me?”
