Huayu: When the director changed his major

Chapter 212 Reba's Natural Performance

Jin Chen listened to what Cheng Xi said, as if he didn't dare to open the gift.

What kind of monster could be hiding in there?

Really, it’s already here, why are you still being so mysterious?

So Jin Chen said with a nonchalant tone:

"Tsk, just take a look."

"How can I take it like this?"

"It's okay, I believe you can do it."

So Jin Chen had no choice but to accept the gift.

Then take the box out of the bag.

Jin Chen had no choice but to use his arms to cross the balance beam.

Hold on tightly to keep your body balanced.

Cheng Xi seemed to be teasing her on purpose, waiting for her to almost hold it firmly.

Bully her again.

As a result, it took me a long time to open the gift box.

At this time, Cheng Xi cooperated and paused.

When Jin Chen saw what was inside, the word "national quintessence" came out of his mouth.

"tmd!"

"Cheng Xi, you're a piece of shit, right?!"

Cheng Xi smiled and said:

"You always say you want to give me a hat, so how about this? I'll give it to you."

"Don't say I'm not with you, it will be mine from now on."

When Jin Chen heard this, his temperature rose several degrees.

"Who the hell do you think I am? I'd never use this."

"Take it away quickly."

Will Cheng Xi agree to this?
Carefully selected.

Look at the way you're talking back to me now.

Who knows, you might even find it really delicious later!

Deng Jie, who had been standing guard outside for a long time, finally came to his senses after being tormented by the evil sound for a while.

At this time, Cheng Xi and Jin Chen finally came out.

It liberated her temporarily.

At this time, she was already a little unsteady.

It’s because of the high heels, not anything else.

Cheng Xi and Jin Chen walked out through the main door.

This time the two of them were too lazy to climb out of the window and they really didn't have the strength.

As for why the door was not locked, it was opened from the inside.

Anyway, one has graduated and the other is not a student of this school.

I'm not afraid of him at all.

"Come on, the sun is about to set, let's go take some pictures."

After Cheng Xi finished speaking, he took the two of them to the nanny car that was still waiting for them.

Call everyone down and start working.

So a group of people started taking photos on the Beijing Dance Academy campus.

Check in at various landmark buildings, and of course inside the classrooms.

Jin Chen also called a few good girlfriends to come and take photos together.

There's always something missing when taking graduation photos alone.

When you upload it to Weibo or QQ space, people will think you have no friends in college.

Not long after, Jin Chen became annoyed when he saw Cheng Xi doing nothing but looking at the girls nearby.

Said bluntly:

"Cheng Xi, can you, a director worth 6 million, just stand there with your hands behind your back and watch? Come up and take a couple of pictures too."

"Fuck, I'm the director, I just need to direct from behind."

"No, take two pictures. Are your photography skills not good enough?"

Damn, you don’t even know how good my photography skills are.

I'm warning you, you're provoking me.

Jin Chen's expression changed instantly.

I almost stumbled and lost my balance.

Cheng Xi thought: I told you not to provoke me, I'll teach you a lesson.

Jin Chen thought to herself: Damn you Cheng Xi, you sneak attacked me.

Of course, other people who are unaware of the situation cannot see any flaws.

I thought Jin Chen was just posing.

There was only Secretary Deng Jie standing next to Cheng Xi.

blinked.

Thoughts flashed through my mind wildly.

In order to verify the possible idea in my heart.

She looked carefully at a certain part of Jin Chen's body, as if all her poses were on her legs.

And her expression changes so much.

Deng Jie immediately understood.

I almost screamed out.

Fortunately, I reacted quickly and immediately closed my hand over my mouth.

His face was red all the way to his ears.

Looking at my boss's broad shoulders, I remembered the last time I gave him a massage in the office.

She didn't know where her thoughts were drifting to.

In the end, Cheng Xi agreed to Jin Chen's request and took a few random photos.

"Um, Jinchen, please control your expression."

"You're graduating now, be happy, and stop gnashing your teeth. What, do I have a grudge against you?"

"Okay, this background will be better if you take a photo of someone in motion. Yes, you run over there."

Cheng Xi had a very cruel revenge.

Finally, seeing that Jin Chen had reached her limit, he let her go.

Let you provoke me.

I'll make good arrangements for you next time.

After taking graduation photos for Jin Chen, Cheng Xi's focus these days was to spend time with Ermei.

Yoyo cookie.

Halfway through, my parents asked me if I was free to go back.

But the machine is about to start, so I really don’t have time.

I had no choice but to agree to go back and play for a few days as soon as I finished filming.

This new drama has a total of 50 episodes, and the plan is to complete filming in two to three months.

It takes about a month to do the post-production.

We will try to start broadcasting at the end of October or November.

Time moved forward slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was mid-July.

The filming of "Diamond Lover" has been underway for two weeks.

Today we mainly filmed the rivalry scenes between Reba and Zhu Yilong.

It can be said that this is a famous scene of Gao Wen in Cheng Xi's impression.

The plot is that Gao Wen, played by Reba, and doctor Lei Yiming are in the car, and Reba is interested in Lei Yiming.

She wanted to hook up with him, but Lei Yiming's mind was now entirely on Mi Duo.

That is the original and only female lead played by Jing Tian.

Then he deliberately took off his coat and fastened his seat belt.

Very interesting.

This section also highlights the character's personality and the actor's acting skills.

So it became one of the famous scenes that made Reba famous.

At this time, Cheng Xi looked at Reba's appearance in the play and couldn't help but touch his nose.

This little cutie is quite good at flirting.

Why did you become a little white rabbit by following me?

This is hidden.

Assistant director Shao Yihui next to him was also looking at Cheng Xi and secretly trying to hold back his laughter.

Shao Yihui is the only female director hired by Cheng Xi in the last director support competition.

A junior in the Department of Literature at Yenching Film Academy.

My own senior sister.

Before she signed the contract with Zuibai Entertainment, she had met Cheng Xi and Ermei eating in the school cafeteria several times.

At that time, I was very envious and wondered who this person was who had such good fortune.

It was only after Cheng Xixin spoke that I realized that this was Zuibai.

No wonder there are always women around him.

I wish I could have dinner with such a talented man every day.

Thinking of this, I saw Cheng Xi beside me and thought about my current role as an assistant director.

It can be said that we are inseparable from each other.

We often discuss the plot in the hotel after work.

And fine-tune the script at any time.

After all, my real major is literature, and I’m a screenwriter.

There is no problem in polishing the lines.

But with so many beauties, I guess Director Cheng doesn’t like me.

If he doesn't do anything special these days, he's just working normally.

Although my looks might be acceptable in ordinary departments, they are definitely not good enough in front of the acting department.

Thinking of this, Shao Yihui sighed inwardly.

Cheng Xi also turned around and started chatting with Shao Yihui:
"What do you think of this scene?"

"Well, it's not bad. Reba's acting is on point. It would be better if she could control it a little more."

"Brother Zhu, please expand on what you said a little bit."

Cheng Xi also intends to bring these new directors.

I heard what she said was similar to what I was thinking, so I said:
"Go and talk to the two of them about the play, and we'll do it again according to your wishes."

This was the first time that Cheng Xi allowed Shao Yihui to talk about the play according to his own ideas after filming for about 10 days.

It's equivalent to her being the executive director.

After a moment of surprise, Shao Yihui stood up slowly.

Walking towards the filming car.

It’s not that Cheng Xi doesn’t want to talk about it, he just feels like teaching Reba how to seduce people.

It feels a bit like being a minotaur.

It is undeniable that some people like this, but Cheng Xi has not evolved to that level yet.

The last time I took photos with Jin Chen on campus and played with springtails, it was considered quite outstanding.

No wonder Fan Binbin calls himself the white lotus in the entertainment industry.

Ultimately, my Director Cheng is too kind.

Too simple.

If someone like Feng Kuazi were to be the director of "The Empress of China".

I guess those dozens of girls who just started acting will have to be taken to his villa for a meeting.

People say that being beautiful brings suffering, but I think beautiful actresses suffer even more.

Fortunately, those girls are blessed to meet a kind and low-key director like me.

Cheng Xi watched Shao Yihui explaining the play to Reba and Zhu Yilong not far away, and his thoughts were scattered.

After a while, Shao Yihui came back.

"Director, I'm done." "Well, you take the lead, I'll stay back."

Directors are trained on the set, so they should let go when they should.

Although it was Shao Yihui's first time directing on set, he felt quite professional as soon as he picked up the walkie-talkie.

"Attention all departments, do this again."

"The recorder is on the board."

"Action!"

Although the crew suddenly heard a female voice directing.

But Cheng Xi was there, and he agreed to everything, so the others just started to act according to the arrangements.

Zhu Yilong and Reba also re-performed the scene according to what Shao Yihui had just said.

This time it’s indeed much better.

But when Zhu Yilong pinched Reba's mouth and Reba stuck out her tongue.

Don’t say it yourself.

This makes me feel a little uneasy.

Alas, Director Cheng, you are not professional.

I can't stand this level of it.

Cheng Xi decided that if Reba had some intimate scenes next time.

You can go up directly by yourself.

Also, I have to hurry up and get this little cutie.

I didn't expect that she had such a side.

I haven't even seen it yet, the crew and the audience saw it first.

In the latter part of the play, Cheng Xi was in charge of directing the entire process for Shao Yihui.

Reba and Zhu Yilong seemed to have realized why Director Cheng was not directing and stood at the back.

"Brother Zhu, please relax your expression and body language a little. Although shrinking can express the character's state, it's a bit too much."

"Reba, it's good enough if you do it once, just make it more natural."

"Okay, everyone take your positions, and do it again."

After the shoot, Shao Yihui came to Cheng Xi and said:
"Boss, the filming is done, come and take a look."

"I was just watching from the back. It's a good shot. It's passable. Let's move on to the next scene."

Shao Yihui finally breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to direct the next scene at least gave him recognition that it was his first time directing the entire process.

Perhaps the next opportunity to direct will not be far away.

Reba and Zhu Yilong were even more relieved.

After finishing work in the evening, Cheng Xi went straight to Reba's room.

As soon as Reba saw her brother's expression, she knew what he was thinking.

So she came up to Cheng Xi and shook him with both hands like a spoiled child.

"Brother, Reba is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"My mistake is that my brother is not the leading actor, otherwise I could have performed better this afternoon."

Cheng Xi didn't expect Reba to answer like this.

Good heavens, in the end the fault is still mine, right?

"Brother, have you always fooled me? I didn't expect my little cutie to be quite good at it."

"No, I don't. I learned it from my teacher at the academy."

"The college teacher taught me this, why don't I believe it?"

"Brother, don't be angry. It's your fault for not being my leading man."

When Reba said this, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Pulling Cheng Xi to the sofa, he said excitedly:
"Brother, why don't you act in a play for me? I've never seen you act before!"

"what!?"

When Cheng Xi heard this, he said, "Don't say anything."

There is indeed a subtle impulse in my heart.

I have never acted since I was reborn, although my dream has always been to be a director.

But no one would refuse to act in a play and experience what it feels like to be an actor or a star.

Just like Jay Chou, after having his fill of it, he realized that his acting skills were really bad.

I just withdrew and focused on writing my own songs.

I haven't seen how my acting is yet.

Seeing that her brother seemed a little interested but still hesitant, Reba continued to act coquettishly with him.

"Brother, just think of this as teaching me how to act. Let's just do the part from this afternoon, okay?"

Cheng Xi remembered the lines from that afternoon very clearly.

Seeing Reba’s expectant look, I agreed.

"Then this sofa will be the driver and passenger seats in the car."

"As for seat belts, let's just perform without physical objects."

"Well, as for the coat, wait a minute, brother. I'll go put one on."

This is the reversal of Tiangang! ?
I became an actor and Reba became a director.

After a while, Reba came out.

It's still so cute that it pops out when you touch it.

If you were to tell me that she has any connection with the big star role in the morning, I'm afraid no one would believe it.

"Brother, let's get started."

"I yell action."

"321action!"

Cheng Xi didn't expect that he could direct and act in this way.

When Reba finished calling out the action for this round, Gao Wen immediately possessed her.

I entered that state immediately.

In fact, Cheng Xi wanted to say during the day that Reba’s acting skills have indeed improved.

Otherwise, Cheng Xi wouldn't have had high blood pressure in the performance.

Seeing Reba looking at him with expectation, Cheng Xi had no choice but to cooperate.

Pointing at Reba's legs, he said his first line:
"Um, could you please move aside a bit? I need to shift into gear."

"Then hang up~"

Cheng Xi swallowed.

Just like in the play, he put his hand over.

But because my legs were too close to the gear lever, it was inevitable that they would touch it.

After shifting gears, Reba turned around and moved her hands to her shoulder side.

Fasten your seat belt.

From Director Cheng's perspective, this non-proprietary performance is really acceptable.

I don’t know how much improvement she has made compared to the previous Reba.

And you can see the scenery.

"What are you doing!?"

"Let me help you fasten your seat belt!"

Having said this, she looked at herself with charming and seductive eyes.

Although Cheng Xi knew it was an act, my little cutie was too tempting.

No, I have to hurry up, otherwise Jin Chen didn’t bring my hat.

My eldest princess couldn't hold on.

But Cheng Xi still believed in Reba 100%.

"Speak your lines, brother!"

"oh oh."

Cheng Xi actually forgot his lines for a moment. It's not easy to be an actor.

So I organized my thoughts and thought about the next lines.

Be prepared to put on a good show.

After all, it’s my first performance, so I have to be serious about it.

Experience the joy of being an actor.

"Why is there something wrong with you?"

"I'm so hot!"

As soon as Reba took off her coat, her expression became even more seductive.

"No, why are you so hot in the middle of winter? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

Cheng Xi pretended to be surprised and a little confused.

"Yes, it's Doctor Lei. Please help me take a look."

"Are you, are you having heart problems?"

"Yeah, my heart is beating so fast."

At this time, Reba took Cheng Xi's hand and wanted to hold it to her heart.

"Then open your mouth. Let me see."

So Reba opened her mouth and closed her pretty eyes.

As a doctor, Cheng Xi pretended to pinch her jaw and looked at her tongue and eyes.

At this point, Reba got angry.

In the plot, she thought the doctor was going to kiss her, but he actually treated her as a patient.

He immediately withdrew his flirting intentions and became angry.

In fact, Cheng Xi saw Reba's cute figure, small tongue, and expression with her eyes closed and head held high.

Who wrote this plot? It's so fucking unreasonable.

Can this doctor bear it?

Oh, I wrote the script.

Forget it, it’s for the sake of conflict.

If there is no conflict, people won’t like to watch it.

At this time, Reba continued to speak her lines.

"What are you doing? What are you doing!"

"Why should I? I need to see it. I need to check you out, in case there's really something wrong."

"There's nothing wrong with me."

"Come, let me show you again."

"Hey, don't touch me. Drive quickly, I don't want to talk to you."

After saying this, Reba was still very angry and sat back in her passenger seat, glancing out the window.

An expression of impatience and disappointment.

After finishing this performance, Reba's eyes lit up and she stood up and looked Cheng Xi up and down.

Cheng Xi saw Reba was just looking at him without saying anything, so he couldn't help but ask:

"How was it, brother, your first time acting?"

Reba thought for a while, then nodded slowly like an old expert and said:
"Great. Apart from the distraction in the middle, the rest of the performance, lines, and expressions were all perfect."

"From my perspective as a professional actor, it's above the passing line!"

"Brother is so talented, have you ever considered becoming an actor?"

Being an actor? Cheng Xi really didn't think much of it.

I had always wanted to enjoy my campus life more and not be so in the spotlight.

But now Zuibai’s reputation is no worse than that of ordinary stars.

But being an actor?
Forget it, I’ll think about this later.

There are more important things now.

So he pulled Reba over, kissed her forehead, and said:
"Brother, please consider being an actor."

"But there was a plot just now that I think could be deepened."

"Let's do it again."

"It all started when you asked me to check your heart."
