I'm not a drama freak, I can really see through the script

Chapter 331, Huang Xiaoming: I feel like a senior.
Even Cao Cao's traitor Chen Jianbo couldn't have imagined this.
Although Liu Hewei is a bit fussy, his abilities are absolutely not to be underestimated.

His acting career has followed Gao Xinxin all the way.

No one knows him better than Gao Xinxin.

A grassroots actor, a national second-level actor, a veteran stage actor, and an actor with the potential to become a TV King.

He's a bit less talented than Chen Jianbo, but in terms of pure acting skills...

He is strong as an actor.

She is extremely strong. Even when facing veteran TV King Chen Jianbo, and even after collaborating with Gao Xinxin so many times, she often makes choices that are completely different from the director's views.

His understanding of the script, his acting skills, everything about him as an actor and as a TV King, made him unsurpassed by anyone.

Like Liu Bei, he was gentle and refined, but deep down he had a stubborn streak.
At this moment, this powerful man lowered his stance and stood half a step behind Li Xuan. This was a heartfelt and subconscious act of standing half a step behind Li Xuan.

That's a kind of clothing.

In other words, Liu Hewei was convinced that Li Xuan was in charge during this filming process.

In terms of his role as 'director', we acknowledge this dominant figure.

At this moment, Gao Xinxin felt a bit of 'face pain', it really hurt so much!
As mentioned before, Liu Hewei, who plays a wild horse, has worked with Li Xuan many times but has never been able to fully control him. Yet now, after filming a scene with Li Xuan, he's completely convinced of his abilities. As an actor, he instinctively stands half a step behind Li Xuan; this is genuine, heartfelt admiration, without any other ulterior motives.
"Director Gao, let's think about the next scene."

At this moment, Li Xuan seemed to be 'leading' those heroes of Shu.
Gao Xinxin felt that he was the monarch, the ruler.

"He shouldn't be underestimated. I never expected his talent as a director to be so strong."

Huang Xiaoming, who was not far away, was watching Li Xuan.

His charisma led Liu Hewei, Hu Jun, Kang Kai, and other generals on the Shu Kingdom's side to demonstrate Li Xuan's talent as a director without them even needing to appreciate it; their attitudes alone were enough to show it.

Even Hu Jun was vaguely behind Li Xuan.

In other words, Li Xuan, when he was 'director', did indeed have the ability to manage these heroes.

What kind of monster is it?
However, now, his eyes are filled with nothing but peace and clarity, devoid of jealousy, anxiety, or any of those inexplicable dark emotions.

From the first time I met Li Xuan, I felt that he was the boy who would be under my feet for the rest of his life.

Despite his humble origins, he possessed a peculiar arrogance, refusing to set aside his dignity and cooperate with capital, yet he still managed to gain so much favor and luck.

Later, his first confrontation with himself ended in defeat.

This time, it's a direct confrontation.

Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang.

Huang Xiaoming even realized that the fateful showdown he had been anticipating all along might just be a hurdle for Li Xuan to overcome.

But Huang Xiaoming was incredibly calm at this moment. He had been thinking about many things these past few days.

What has been the purpose of all this journey I've taken?
For many reasons, and for the sake of pride, they were known as the Three Musketeers when they debuted, only to be left far behind and ridiculed.
I felt more like I was just there to make up the numbers.

It was precisely because of this pent-up anger.

That's why I'm willing to do anything to climb the ladder, and that's why I'm looking for anything that's beneficial to my career.

Whether it's feigning compliance or recognizing someone as a godfather, it doesn't matter.

All of this has only one motive and one purpose.

That is transcendence.

As an actor.

Surpass those two people who keep putting you down, even if it comes at a price.

Then he triumphantly raised his eyebrows in triumph.

What are we trying to prove to the world?

To prove one's extraordinary abilities.

To prove that they are qualified to receive the same fame and fortune as them.

They are qualified to achieve the same level of excellence.

This can be considered the driving force behind everything he does.

The original driving force behind everything is the desire to finally hold one's head high.

But this original driving force.

After meeting Li Xuan.

This makes it all the more ridiculous, because the nightmare is telling him that he's not just being left behind.

Even the younger generation has caught up.

That's why he's so dejected.

I was depressed for a while.

I only discovered it recently.

Only then can one have a sense of understanding.

Failure, on the contrary, brought him a sense of peace.

I gained a certain insight while working on the set of the new Three Kingdoms series.

One method was obtained.

A feeling I never had before.

Not for anyone, not to defeat anyone, not to catch up with anyone, just throw all of these things away into nothingness.

Discard all those desires for profit, discard all your original thoughts, and discard your original aspirations.

After discarding all those things, what remains is the most essential pursuit.

I want to play the role well.

As an actor, one must give one's all to interpret one's own understanding and to play one's role well.

It has nothing to do with anything else.

all the time.

I'm seen as an idol, a follower of the younger generation. No matter what, I can't escape the title of follower. It seems that no matter how hard I try, I can't get rid of this label.

Damn, what a complete failure.

At this moment, Huang Xiaoming cursed himself, which was more of a mockery.

Now, the person who was being chased has become the one chasing.

I don't want to pursue those messy things anymore.

I recall when I first entered the Beijing Film Academy.

The thinking back then was definitely not as complex as it is now; back then, there was no...
It wasn't like this before.

Just look at yourself.

Reclaim your true self.

Zhou Gongjin.

You're not convinced either, are you?

You are absolutely no less than Zhuge Liang.

Absolutely no less than him.

Let them see.

A failed pursuer.

It won't always fail.
At this moment, Huang Xiaoming stepped forward, his demeanor had changed, and the person standing in front of him was no longer the greasy and dissolute Huang Xiaoming.

He is an actor.

An outstanding actor.

At this moment, Gao Xinxin definitely noticed the changes in him and the impact they had on him.

He hadn't yet found that kind of rapport with the character. It was at this moment that he gained his own understanding.

From temperament and appearance to behavior and every move, everything about him was transformed into Zhou Yu.

Some elements.

Some elements whose nature is unknown.

This allowed Huang Xiaoming to completely immerse himself in the role.

They achieved their best performance.

If he continues to maintain this feeling, he's probably aiming for the Best Actor award.

"The young actor is in good shape." Chen Jianbo, who was standing next to him, looked at the young man in front of him.

He watched him with great interest.

Look at this actor, who is completely in character.

This also happened on the film set.

This was the first time Chen Jianbo addressed Huang Xiaoming as an actor.

In his eyes.

Huang Xiaoming is now qualified to be called an actor.

Only then are you qualified.

At this moment, Li Xuan completely integrated the feeling of Zhuge Liang into his own senses.
Completely immersed in it.

He said this to the chief director, Gao Xinxin.

"Just keep shooting in that order."

Should we shoot in the same direction?
Gao Xinxin nodded, thinking that if there were any problems, they could just skip the part.

3.2.1 Start.

"I have long heard that when you were living in seclusion in Longzhong, you compared yourself to Guan Zhong and Yue Yi. Is this really true?" At this moment, Zhang Zhao, a nobody from Jiangdong, looked down at Zhuge Kongming. He had heard that this Kongming was very pretentious. He was clearly a recluse in the mountains and forests, yet he still acted like a big shot.

"That's right,"

Kongming readily admitted it.
There was no grandstanding, only composure—as if to say, I wasn't showing off. I was simply stating something that I understood and took for granted.

That's how you develop a refined demeanor.

The sense of oppression then emerges.

The feeling of the debate with the scholars is then conveyed.

There's no need for a real verbal battle; the sheer presence of your presence is enough.
This is a scene of a verbal battle with a group of scholars.

Li Xuan fully and completely immersed himself in it.

That feeling was very profound.
Without any pause
One shot throughout.

It's incredibly smooth.

At this point, Chen Jianbo was also somewhat surprised.
"A single, continuous take. The feeling of it being filmed from beginning to end is something many veteran actors in the crew couldn't achieve."

This shows that their understanding of the character is ingrained in their very being.

It has truly reached the point of being ingrained in one's very bones.

Most of the 'actors' in the crew couldn't do a one-shot film without any trace of acting, but Li Xuan could. This 'parachute' addition through connections has achieved a profound understanding of the character.

The performance was neither excessive nor lacking in feeling; it had a 'just right' quality.

He fully integrated his own acting skills into the role, as an actor.

"This kid is an actor too."

"No, he is a star. However, he also possesses qualities that only an actor has."

Gao Xinxin then said
Li Xuan is someone who is on the path to becoming a celebrity.

But his part as an actor—as we see it now.

It is controlled and executed with ease, just right.

This person with connections has a profound understanding of the role, far from simple; he possesses an absolute capacity for comprehension.

This gave him a slight sense of anticipation for the scenes between Li Xuan and Huang Xiaoming, wondering which of these two 'young generation' actors was more capable.

The following scenes feature Zhou Yu, Lu Su, and Kongming, their initial encounter, and the three 'strategists' of the Three Kingdoms period.

Handsome and dashing, whether it's Li Xuan or Huang Xiaoming, regardless of their acting skills, they were all trained as part of the Beijing Film Academy's "star" program. In other words, in terms of appearance, they have an absolute influence.

Actor Lu Su was right there, feeling utterly humiliated. Caught between two handsome men, he had absolutely no presence, regardless of his popularity.

This is one of the most fundamental truths of this world.

This actor, named Huo Qing, is definitely not low-level. He is also a senior actor in the drama troupe, a national second-level actor, and his level is definitely not low. He is definitely an excellent actor.

But when the three of them act together, everyone only looks at Li Xuan and Huang Xiaoming, while Lu Su, no matter what, is just a 'supporting actor'.

This isn't a problem with the actor, but rather a problem with the 'role'.

Regardless of talent, some people are born to be on stage. This innate talent, the outstanding ability to be the protagonist in front of the camera, is a level that no amount of hard work can achieve.

at this time.

Lu Su served as an assistant, watching over Kongming and Zhou Yu.

“Cao Cao holds the emperor hostage to command the feudal lords. His power is immense and unstoppable. If we fight him, we will surely be defeated; if we surrender, we will be safe. I have made up my mind. Tomorrow, after I meet with Lord Wu, I will send an envoy to surrender.”

"Mr. Kongming, please."

Zhou Yu smiled faintly at this moment.

"My lord, you are mistaken. The foundation of Jiangdong has been built up over three generations. How can it be handed over to others? The fate of the nation now rests on your shoulders alone. Why do you speak such cowardly words?"

"The six counties of Jiangdong have countless lives. Once war breaks out, the people will suffer. If I advocate war, won't the old and young of Jiangdong all resent me?"

"Otherwise, with your heroic spirit, General, and the strategic advantage of Eastern Wu, Cao Cao might not have succeeded!"

Over and over again.

Zhou Yu's scenes were also filmed in one take.
Both of their scenes were filmed in one take, and after one take, it was considered a wrap!
It's all about going through the script!
"Ha ha."

"Why are you smiling, sir?"

"I laugh at Zijing for being out of touch with reality."

"Why do you laugh at me, sir?"

Kongming smiled slightly.

"Two platforms stand on the left and right, with jade dragons and golden phoenixes."

"The two Qiao sisters are like shrimp and salamanders in the sky."

When I was acting opposite Li Xuan, I realized what 'strong' really meant when I actually worked with him.

He enjoyed filming this scene so much that even though his mind was hating the feeling, his body was saying – this is what acting is all about.

Huang Xiaoming has always believed that among the younger generation, no matter how capable or strong they are, there is always a limit.

Age, years, and experience—these feelings can give a character a profound and weighty quality.

When acting opposite Li Xuan, the emphasis was consistently placed on Kongming's wisdom, just like now.
Nature, wisdom.

When Huang Xiaoming was acting opposite Li Xuan, he felt like he wasn't acting opposite an actor from the same generation as him. The last time he had that feeling was when he was acting with Chen Daoming, where he felt completely led and dominated.

The reason why he was able to act so well in "The Emperor of Han Dynasty" is absolutely inseparable from Chen Daoming's guidance.
The guidance from his seniors helped improve his acting skills and gave him more depth.

This is the lingering charm that only the most outstanding TV King can possess—the ability to draw others into the realm of emotional reasoning.

That's a natural expression.

The Li Xuan before me seems to have succeeded in immersing himself in the emotions of the play.

This time, Li Xuan seems to be acting as a 'senior', guiding the younger generation into the play.
