This actor has something

Chapter 116 Joining the Group
As soon as he arrived at the crew the next day, He Daqi greeted Liu Furong and Liang Chaowei happily.

"Brother Hua, Brother Wei..."

"Qizai is here? You are becoming more and more stylish now, little Jew, is this the clothes you picked for him?" Liang Chaowei smiled and responded, then turned to Zhou Huimin and asked.

"I have good taste, right?" Zhou Huimin said with a smile.

"It's obviously Qizai who has a good figure, but who is this pretty girl? Qizai's sister?" Liu Furong joked, then nodded to Tong Liya and asked.

"This is a new person signed by our company. Her name is Tong Liya. Isn't she pretty?"

"That's incredible! The little Jew is now a boss too."

When a few people were chatting, Liu Weiqiang gathered everyone together with a loudspeaker.

"Qi Zai, you have to go to Shenzhen to shoot the first few scenes. Today we will shoot the scene where you chat with Vivian after killing someone. I will explain the scene to you first, and then we will shoot it once to see how it goes."

"Okay, director." He Daqi nodded.

"You are obsessed with Mary, otherwise you wouldn't help her kill someone even though you knew you were going to the police academy. When we started talking, your eyes were a little evasive.
I knew her watch was broken, and I bought a new one on the way back, intending to give it to her, but I discovered she already had a new one, so I ended up feeling a bit disappointed and didn't give it to her. How can I try to express this dilemma?

"Okay." He Daqi nodded again.

Liu Weiqiang has already prepared himself to work on his role over and over again. He knew during the last filming that the newcomer He Daqi was as new as could be. Now, ten months have passed, and he estimates that even if He Daqi makes some progress, it won't be much.

"Put on some makeup and go into the studio to get ready."

Twenty minutes later, the set was complete.

There were three cameras in total, one on a track and the other two on a table.

"Act 4, Scene 1, begin!"

He Daqi suddenly changed from a simple and honest young man into a gangster with deep eyes and a little nervousness. After taking two steps, the tension in his body dissipated a lot.

Zhou Huimin was so stunned by He Daqi's condition that she forgot to turn around and lead the way inside.

"Crack! Vivian, you're too slow."

"I'm sorry, Director." Zhou Huimin put her hands together and apologized, then turned around and looked at He Daqi in surprise.

The script supervisor hit the board again.

This time Zhou Huimin was prepared.

Seeing He Daqi coming in, she took two steps forward and looked at He Daqi, then turned around gracefully, and the two of them walked slowly to the living room, one in front and the other behind.

Zhou Huimin squatted down and turned on the player.

"Who is knocking on my window..."

The old record started playing, and classic old songs slowly floated in the room.

As she sang her lines, Zhou Huimin stood up and walked over to He Daqi. "This antique Bald Eagle radio, some say it has sweet treble, accurate midrange, and powerful bass. That's bullshit. It costs 180,000. How many people in Hong Kong can afford it?"

"Crack, very good, change the angle, Qizi, your eyes were very accurate just now."

Liu Weiqiang was a little excited. He didn't expect that He Daqi not only did not perform poorly, but actually performed exceptionally well.

He doesn't have a single line of dialogue, but his movements, demeanor, body movements, and eyes all perfectly portray the nervousness of a young man who just killed someone and is now facing the person he likes.

As the other camera was adjusted, Ho Tai Kei and Chow Wai Man continued their performance.

There were some minor mistakes in the middle, for example, He Daqi spoke his lines too early and the camera didn't move over in time, and Zhou Huimin made a mistake when taking the money and failed to hold it.

After two or three clicks, the entire scene was captured.

"Great job, Qizi. I didn't expect you to have made such great progress!" As soon as the filming was over, Liu Weiqiang came over and patted He Daqi on the shoulder.

He Daqi smiled shyly, like a shy boy. Liu Weiqiang said nothing more and hurried off to arrange the set.

After he turned around and left, Zhou Huimin came over and looked He Daqi up and down in a daze.

what happened?

The best newcomer award was clearly coming, so why does it seem so real now?
"You... don't tell me that your acting skills were taught by your uncle. Didn't you only film with him for a few days?" Zhou Huimin said with some doubt in his tone.

"You've never seen anyone with extraordinary talent, have you?" He Daqi was a little proud.

That’s two million emotion points, it’s not wasted.

At this moment, it was not only Chow Huimin who was surprised on the set.

Generally speaking, actors from the mainland always feel out of place when filming in Hong Kong crews. I didn’t expect that He Daqi could fit in so smoothly.

Liu Weiqiang was busy over there for about ten minutes, then waved to the few people who were chatting in a circle over here.

"Qi Zai, you and Brother Hua are going to take a set of comparison shots next. Come over here and compare them to see what expressions are suitable for the shots and find expressions that have something in common."

"Ok."

The two of them responded.

……

……

"I'm so tired! I kind of hate filming now. I have to wear high heels every time I shoot."

Zhou Huimin returned to her room, kicked off her shoes in a hurry, then collapsed on the sofa and started massaging her feet.

"Is it dirty? Don't you want to wash it first?"

He Daqi tidied up the high heels she had kicked aside, then took off his shoes and put on flip-flops.

"Come and massage my feet~" Zhou Huimin flapped her legs on the sofa, humming and acting coquettishly.

"You go wash it first. I just want to cut the fruit I just bought." After saying that, He Daqi carried the bag into the kitchen.

When he came out with the fruit plate, he found two more people in the room.

Tong Liya and Liu Ying were also sitting on the sofa at this time.

"Sister Liu, what's the matter?"

"Ya Ya wants to ask you two how to improve your acting skills. She's been watching all day and is a little overwhelmed."

He Daqi scratched his head and said with a chuckle, "Read more and learn more."

"Do I need you to tell me?" Zhou Huimin complained, then comforted Tong Liya, "Don't listen to him. He was so stupid at first that he just stood there blankly. It was the director who adjusted the perspective and close-up shots that kept him from showing his fear."

"Why does Brother Daqi learn so quickly? I could feel his conflicted emotions just by standing next to him today." Tong Liya asked curiously.

Zhou Huimin choked at the question, then gave a perfunctory explanation: "He...his uncle is a drama actor, the kind that has won several awards. I guess his uncle taught him when he had nothing to do, and then he had a little talent, so he slowly developed it through practice."

"So acting in a play can quickly improve your acting skills?"

"No."

Zhou Huimin, He Daqi, and Liu Ying answered in unison.

Seeing them so neatly arranged, Tong Liya was a little confused.

Zhou Huimin sighed. "Well, now that I think about it, he was right. I need to learn more and watch more. Some performance methods in stage plays are not suitable for movies and TV series, but most of them are still similar."
