Huayu: This celebrity doesn't follow the rules.

Chapter 2: A flawed perspective can be detrimental.

If I'm not mistaken, Jiang Ye should be the so-called "third party" that Ou Hao mentioned!
Don't get me wrong, Jiang Ye isn't so beastly as to be on friendly terms with Ou Hao while simultaneously having a crush on his sister-in-law.

Although Ma Sichun, who plays Li Bala, is currently at the peak of her beauty, with delicate features and a defined jawline.

This image is completely different from the one she later gained weight due to health problems and was jokingly called "the fattest Ge Weilong".

Jiang Ye, on the other hand, was young and vigorous, full of youthful energy, and every morning he stood tall and upright.

But he's not involved in the hip-hop scene...

It was Ma Sichun who seduced him!
Yesterday, when filming wrapped up, Ma Sichun deliberately stopped him outside the set, ostensibly to "give acting advice to the newcomers."

Unable to refuse, he had no choice but to accompany her for a walk along the coastline.

Suddenly, as they walked, Ma Sichun cried out "Ouch!" and leaned against him, her soft body pressed against his arm, a faint scent of perfume wafting from her hair.
Heaven and earth bear witness, Jiang Ye ultimately pushed the person away!
Recently, Ma Sichun has been sending him funny videos all the time, sometimes with ambiguous comments.

If nothing unexpected happens, it seems like everything matches up...

But how did this become a "third party"?

He was clearly the victim...

With so many beautiful women in the crew, if he really had to choose, he would definitely choose Chen Duling!

After all, Chen Duling looked so beautiful as the Mirror Demon in "Eternal Night Galaxy"!
That's right, Jiang Ye is a reincarnated person!
He squandered a winning hand in his past life.

He graduated from the directing department of Beijing Film Academy, and his uncle is a senior producer in the industry, but he is still very ambitious.

Instead of utilizing their existing connections upon graduation, they insisted on proving that "one can make a name for oneself without relying on family connections."

As a result, ten years were wasted, and the third-rate web series they produced did not even score more than 5 points on Douban. At their poorest, they even had to pay for the crew's boxed meals out of their own pockets.

It wasn't until she was thirty that she managed to squeeze into the short drama industry with the help of her parents.

He did manage to produce a few minor hits, earning him the title of "Grandmaster of Fast-Paced Dramas" in the vertical screen genre.

But before he could even get back on his feet, a car accident sent him back to 2014.

On his first day back after being reborn, Jiang Ye made a summary.

"A narrow-minded perspective is harmful; all that talk of being high-minded is utter nonsense!"

Now that I've been given a second chance at life, I'll screw all pride and face!

The next day, he knocked on his uncle's door and shamelessly begged for a script supervisor position on the set of "The Left Ear".

I also took two bottles of Moutai with me!

It's been about a month since I was reborn, and although I didn't come with any system, things are still a bit disappointing.

But he discovered that his memory and energy had become far beyond that of ordinary people.

My health has improved!

Even in that area, he felt that he was frighteningly strong.

This isn't just him bragging; once, while watching a pornographic film, he wanted to liberate his dreams with his own hands.

His phone was completely dead, but he still couldn't succeed...

It's a kind of happy trouble, I guess...

……

"Attention everyone, filming will begin in five minutes!"

Assistant director Gao Chuan shouted through a megaphone, instantly snapping the previously relaxed staff into a whirlwind.

The lighting crew rushed around carrying softboxes, the sound engineer dangled long microphone cables, and the production crew pushed track carts that rumbled across the concrete.

Jiang Ye turned his baseball cap backwards and jogged through the busy crowd.

As a script supervisor assistant, he efficiently checked the call sheet.

The next scene to be filmed is Chen Duling's first crying scene, Li Er's breakdown after learning of Li Bala's death.

It's extremely difficult and puts a great strain on the actors' micro-expression control. "Scene 38, Take 1, get ready..."

Jiang Ye raised the clapperboard high, and sunlight refracted into colorful spots on the plastic frame.

Chen Duling stood on the edge of the rooftop, wearing a blue and white school uniform, the sea breeze blowing her shoulder-length black hair wildly.

"Action!"

However, problems arose right after the first take was filmed.

Having no acting experience whatsoever, Chen Duling was completely unable to evoke any emotions, and even ended up in an awkward state of "crying like laughing".

"Cut!" Su Youpeng's voice came through the walkie-talkie, tinged with barely perceptible fatigue. "Duling, you still haven't gotten into the emotional state. Li Bala was your best friend, and she suddenly left. You should be devastated, right..."

He paused, not saying anything like "like being burned," and said, "Try it again, try to put yourself in that situation."

"Card!"

"Card!"

"Card!"

The clapperboard snapped shut again, and the number "25" stung Chen Duling's eyes.

She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her flesh, trying to force tears out of the pain, but her mind was blank.

Not long ago, she was just an ordinary student at China Southern Airlines, studying differential equations in a textbook on aircraft manufacturing. Now, however, she is wearing a faded school uniform, playing the role of a girl named "Li Er," and crying until she suffocates for another girl named "Li Bala."

It's definitely difficult for her!

“Imagine,” Su Youpeng walked in front of the camera, gesturing patiently, “you’re standing in a hospital corridor, and the doctor says ‘resurrection failed.’ The girl who always swore in your ear is suddenly gone. Try it, go from ‘disbelief’ to ‘despair,’ the emotions need to be layered…”

"Card!"

"Let's rest for twenty minutes first." Su Youpeng rubbed his temples.

After 27 consecutive takes, his patience ran out, and he began to doubt whether he had made the right casting choice.

Chen Duling silently walked to a corner of the studio and looked down at the script that was covered in marker marks.

She tried very hard to act well, but this is definitely not her area of ​​expertise!

With each take, and seeing the questioning looks from the crew, she felt extremely upset and guilty.

The crew members were very polite to her; the stagehands would promptly hand her ice packs, and the makeup artist would always gently touch up her makeup, but a subtle sense of distance was ever-present.

Just like now, even though there are five or six folding chairs next to her, no one comes near her.

"Hey, you're a top student."

A sound suddenly came from the shadows. Chen Duling looked up in surprise and saw Jiang Ye leaning against the corner of the wall, twirling a can of iced cola in his hand.

"Are you hiding here to build an airplane as a surprise for Director Su?"

Jiang Ye walked over and shoved a can of cola into her hand. The icy touch made her shiver. "Director Su's 'situational immersion method' is like a foreign language to someone who has never acted before."

Chen Duling didn't speak, but just stared at the water droplets condensing on the can.

What do you know, you little brat!
Do you know why you can't cry?

Jiang Ye squatted down, his gaze level with hers, "Because you're 'acting to cry,' not 'real crying.'"

As a director who had spent many years working in the short drama industry before his rebirth, Jiang Ye was all too familiar with this situation.

Short dramas have short shooting cycles, and most of the actors are amateurs, so the most important thing is to quickly evoke emotions.

He had seen too many new actors like Chen Duling, who clearly had emotions in their hearts but were stuck on the physiological reaction.

Jiang Ye decided to help her...

After all, his hand was almost cramping from clapping the clapperboard so much during this scene, and he was afraid that if they kept making mistakes, he would slap the clapperboard right in Director Su's face.
