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

Chapter 84: Yu Wenle's defense is broken. I imitate others, and you are imitated.
After filming this scene.

Liu Weiqiang originally wanted to praise the young people and encourage them, as they did a really good job.

In fact, it’s really good.
As a result, he was stopped by Andy Lau.

"What are you doing? Don't you love encouraging young people?"

At this time, Liu Weiqiang was puzzled by Liu Dehua's obstruction. At this time, this king who was famous for his diligence stared at Li Xuan with burning eyes.

Follow his gaze.

But see Li Xuan at this moment.

But still in the play.

He is still a character in the play.

Today's shooting has ended, but he is still in this state.

“Is he still an immersive actor?”

Liu Weiqiang is also quite knowledgeable and can tell at a glance which school an actor belongs to.

The methodological school that puts theory first is often seen among the older brothers in mainland China who have graduated from professional schools and have a complete set of theories.

They are considered a reputable and upright family in the entertainment industry.

There is also the practical school in Hong Kong. TVB's training classes use this system, which is a bit like the vocational high school education system in mainland China. You don't need to understand any theory, you just need to know how to apply it.

There is also the immersive type, which has a narrow range of roles and requires extraordinary talent.

I didn't expect to meet such an immersive actor here.

Once they enter the role, it will not be easy to come out, because they have entered into the character's life.

Possessing one more world and life than ordinary people.

The only thing we need to worry about is probably their mental state. If they are slow to get into the role, indulge in it, and cannot distinguish the boundary between reality and illusion, their mental state will become very ugly.

"So he's an immersive actor. No wonder, that seems to explain why his acting is so good."

At this moment Zeng Zhiwei pondered.

It seems that if it is an immersive performance, it is not surprising that it can have such expressiveness now.

Do you envy this acting skill?
Change your mental state!
Edison Chen was watching silently not far away. He had not left the set for the past two days and would not leave until he got a satisfactory answer.

Now, after watching Li Xuan's play.

A complete eye-opener.

In the eyes of everyone, including the director, the screenwriter, and his parents, the image of a gangster is that of a scoundrel who is born and dies every day and lives like an ant.

Guanxi Chen likes this role very much because he is indeed very similar to himself.

The numbness of bohemian behavior and the lifestyle of living and dying every day are indeed very similar to the outside world's evaluation of myself. As a rich second-generation and a playboy, I am used to such evaluations.

It seems that he himself has gotten used to it, and whether it is about the role or himself, he is accustomed to expressing it in the way that others think.

You said I looked like a gangster.

I also changed my image to be more of a ruffian.

You said this character is a gangster, so I will play the gangster according to the gangster in your mind.

Now Chen Guanxi knows why he lost.

Because I have no soul, only flesh and blood floating on the surface.

And he has.

Next, during the rehearsal, there is a montage of life with interlaced shots. Liu Jianming becomes more and more like a policeman, and in every shot, Liu Jianming becomes different.

Same goes for Yu Wenle's Chen Yongren, who becomes more and more like Tony Leung Chiu-wai.
In the camera, the confusion and fierceness unique to gangsters in Liu Jianming's eyes are becoming less and less, and the eyes of a policeman are becoming more and more, changing in every frame.

Every frame of the shot is like the years Liu Jianming has experienced.

Every year is different.

Apart from the underlying unwillingness, which has not changed.

He became a policeman completely.

There is a scene where Liu Jianming and Chen Yongren make eye contact, which is the theme of "Infernal Affairs" that one cannot help oneself.

When they were in the police academy, Liu Jianming would look at Chen Yongren and say that he really wanted to exchange ideas with him.

I am a gangster who became a policeman involuntarily.

You wanted to be a police officer, but were kicked out of the police academy against your will.

The two of them exchanged glances.

This made Yu Wenle's heart tremble.

What kind of look is that?
Judging from the role, he is the young actor who plays Chen Yongren, and the corresponding representative is Tony Leung Chiu-wai.

Now, in front of Liu Dehua's young role, he is timid
No, I'm a policeman, you're a gangster!
For a moment, Yu Wenle's condition was a little bit off, and the director did NGs several times. What was unexpected was that it was this rising star of Hong Kong who caused all the NGs.

As for the mainlander, he did not get out of the state after each NG.

This is also somewhat surprising.

Generally speaking, NG will make people lose their form. No matter how famous the star is or how experienced the actor is, this state is inevitable.

However, Li Xuan always manages to maintain his 100% condition.

"Are all immersive actors monsters? Ng, you've been able to maintain your form so many times."

At this time, Mai Zhaohui looked at the knowledgeable Fatty Zeng strangely.

Zeng Zhiwei was silent. For a moment, he, who claimed to have seen a lot, didn't know how to answer.

I've never seen this kind of immersion.

Liu Weiqiang, who was filming at this time, fell silent. After this round of filming, he came to a conclusion.

"Cut the shots of these two people apart and don't let them appear in the same frame."

"Ah."

The original plan was to have the young Chen Yongren and the young Liu Jianming appear in the same shot to highlight the sense of fate.

It's a kind of counterpoint shot, and what's the result?
I can’t catch it. I can’t catch it at all.

Little Liang Chaowei was completely unable to keep up with Liu Jianming's emotions.

If you can't connect the scenes and try to force them together, it will only make the shot of this scene look terrible.

When Yu Wenle learned this, it was like a bolt from the blue.

I. I can do it!

I really can do it!
You believe me!

Then, looking at Chen Guanxi who seemed to be smiling not far away, Yu Wenle felt even more pressured.

At this moment, director Liu Weiqiang didn't know how to comfort him.

That's not right. You can't keep up the show, and you still want me to comfort you?

Liu Weiqiang felt conflicted and thought it was normal that Yu Wenle couldn't catch it.

"It's already very good. His play is not something that newcomers like you can handle." Liu Dehua fully demonstrated the style of a senior and comforted this junior in the entertainment industry.

Yu Wenle's smile was forced; the impact of this statement was no less than "one minute is already impressive."
the most important is.

Andy Lau has subconsciously excluded Li Xuan from the position of young newcomers. How can a newcomer act like this?
How can a newcomer perform so well?

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, if he's an immersive actor, you wouldn't think he's that monstrous. Of course, his expressiveness is still very impressive, and that can't be faked."

At this moment, Zeng Zhiwei seems to have regained a sense of balance.

The immersive school has always had difficulty putting on a play.

Do you envy this acting skill?
The acting style has changed.

Apart from the immersive characters, the performances of the other characters should be those of ordinary method actors.

Liu Dehua did not comment on this. Now his mind was full of Sun Guo.

Something is wrong. In fact, this is very wrong.

Of course, now is not the time to think about this.

Liu Dehua now feels
The more you watch Li Xuan’s Liu Jianming, the more interesting he becomes.

The plot of Infernal Affairs constantly mocks the fate of Liu Jianming and Chen Yongren. One of them wants to be a thief and the other wants to be a soldier, but fate gives them opposite directions and gives them an involuntary choice.

What kind of person is Liu Jianming?

At the beginning, Andy Lau had his own understanding. He was a very greedy person. He had done so many bad things, but in the end he wanted to wash away all his past by saying, "I want to be a good person."

Go talk to the judge and ask him if he believes you.

It can be said that Liu Jianming interpreted the complexity of human nature vividly. If Chen Yongren had not discovered his identity as a thief in the end, he might have really been able to reinstate Chen Yongren, and the two of them could really have become comrades fighting side by side.

The premise is that Chen Yongren didn't find out that he was Han Chen's man.

The role of Li Xuan allowed Liu Dehua to see another possible side of Liu Jianming. Although human nature is complex, this is my nature.

There is no reversal, just the spread of the dark nature.

I became an inspector and a righteous man. I never talked about brotherhood with you, Han Chen. You used me, and am I not also using you?

A person who can climb to the top step by step in the enemy camp cannot be a simple pawn.

He himself is a man with ambition and hegemony.

He was involuntarily placed in the police camp, but in the end both his body and mind belonged to the position of a policeman.

However, when his body and mind were completely surrendered, fate made him unable to control himself. He eventually fell into the endless hell.

Liu Dehua discovered it.

Follow Li Xuan to perform.

It seems that Liu Jianming needs to be more flesh and blood.

Li Xuan's scenes were over very quickly, and the young Liu Jianming didn't have much to film except for the first five minutes of flashbacks.

But Liu Dehua asked Li Xuan not to leave the crew yet, but to stay and observe more. Of course, business is business, so he just wanted to pay more!
King Liu wants to imitate Li Xuan to play Liu Jianming.

This may seem hard to accept at first glance, but this is the truth. It seems that no one in the entire crew understands Liu Jianming as well as Li Xuan does.

Neither can Liu Dehua.

"How can this be?"

The person who was most broken-down was actually Yu Wenle. At the beginning, he just regarded this mainlander as a tool to humiliate Chen Guanxi from a distance, but now he can't even keep up with him.

Even King Liu acts according to his style and follows his rhythm.

Chen Guanxi took the opportunity to continue breaking down the defense.

"Yes, while you were following behind Tony Leung Chiu-wai and trying hard to imitate his eyes, this little brother from the mainland was already extending the role for Andy Lau."

Yu Wenle's defense was broken. Now when people in the crew praised him for having a third of Tony Leung's charm, he didn't even feel impressed.

You are imitating others.

People are being imitated!
