Huayu: This celebrity doesn't follow the rules.

Chapter 5 Xiao Chen, feel free to ask me if you have any questions in the future.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the film set gradually became lively.

Lighting technician Lao Zhang was adjusting equipment with half a fried dough stick in his mouth, while the makeup artists jogged around carrying toolboxes, and the stagehands pushed the track carts, making a rumbling sound.

Jiang Ye was helping the sound engineer adjust the microphone boom when he suddenly heard Su Youpeng's slightly hoarse voice say, "Come on, let's go through the scene first!"

"Playing a role?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Duling immediately put down the script and quickly walked to the director's side.

She stood ramrod straight, her hands clasped in front of her, as attentive as if she were listening to a professor in class.

Only those eyes were wide open, staring intently at Su Youpeng, as if afraid of missing any detail.

“Watch my facial expressions,” Su Youpeng said, suddenly turning his back to the crowd to demonstrate, “from surprise to sadness, there should be a gradual process…”

Chen Duling immediately stood on tiptoe, her slender neck unconsciously jutting forward.

Seeing that her view was blocked, she pursed her lips, quietly moved half a step to the left, and then subtly moved to the right, like a cautious kitten adjusting to the best angle of observation.

"The key is the timing of this turn..." Su Youpeng said as he turned back.

Chen Duling immediately lowered her eyes, pretending to study the script.

When the director turned back, she quietly looked up again, only to see the back of Su Youpeng's head.

Her lips parted slightly, as if she wanted to ask a question but was too embarrassed to interrupt.

That usually aloof face was now filled with anxiety; she was clearly on the verge of bursting with rage, yet she still tried to appear calm.

"puff"

A soft laugh made Chen Duling turn her head sharply.

Upon recognizing Jiang Ye, she immediately tensed her face and silently accused him with her eyes: "Don't laugh!"

But the reddened ear tips and slightly puffed cheeks rendered the warning utterly ineffective.

Jiang Ye not only didn't restrain himself, but instead smiled even more brightly.

“Young stage manager,” Chen Duling walked up to him, her voice as clear and cold as a mountain stream, “you seem to have a problem with my learning methods?”

"No, no," Jiang Ye waved his hand, feigning seriousness, "It's just that Teacher Chen's serious demeanor is particularly..."

"Funny...no...exceptionally cute!"

"I'm observing performance techniques," Chen Duling explained with a serious face, but her fingertips unconsciously curled the ends of her hair, revealing a hint of nervousness.

Seeing her dejected expression, Jiang Ye lowered his voice and said, "Actually, I have a little trick."

"You?" Chen Duling raised an eyebrow in suspicion.

"Yes, call her Teacher Jiang..."

"Stop bragging! Go play somewhere else and don't mess things up..."

"I wasn't bragging..."

"Then tell me..."

"???"

"What?" A sly glint flashed in Chen Duling's eyes. "You haven't learned it?"

Jiang Ye blurted out, "Who said I can't?"

He looked around, leaned closer, and whispered, "The essence of the director's turn lies in..."

As he spoke, he used the script to cover his eyes and quickly drew an arc on the paper: "Emotions should be like a parabola, with the highest point here."

Lightly tap the paper with your fingertips.

Chen Duling unconsciously moved closer, a strand of hair falling down.

Jiang Ye gently brushed the strand of hair aside with the pen and continued, "Remember this rhythm, and you won't be flustered when you turn around."

As the two were engrossed in their conversation, Su Youpeng's voice suddenly came from behind: "Xiao Jiang, I see you two are quite engrossed in your discussion?"

The two turned around at the same time, and Chen Duling subtly took half a step forward: "Director, Executor Jiang was just checking my blocking..."

Su Youpeng interrupted with a smile, a shrewd glint in his eyes, "I heard everything just now. Xiao Jiang, what do you think we should do with this scene?"

Jiang Ye awkwardly touched the back of his neck: "Director Su, I was just saying."

"Don't be modest," Su Youpeng waved his hand, "I think what you said makes a lot of sense." Jiang Ye wasn't being modest; he was afraid that if he said too well, Su Youpeng would lose his job...

But he had nothing to be ashamed of.

"Director Su, I only learned some new actors' learning methods when I was working on film sets with my uncle. Maybe they can be helpful to Teacher Chen."

He walked to the center of the stage and said in a calm tone: "Playing a scene is like learning to dance. You have to be familiar with the steps before you can bring out the charm of the dance."

He then naturally demonstrated a few basic movements, saying, "The most common mistake newcomers make is focusing too much on facial expressions and neglecting the most basic movement patterns."

Su Youpeng nodded thoughtfully.

Jiang Ye continued, "For example, in the scene just now, Teacher Chen can first remember three key points..."

He precisely stepped on three marks, "so that I don't have to think about positioning and can focus my attention on the emotional shift."

His explanations were insightful yet easy to understand, without being overly pretentious, yet still demonstrating professional depth.

When it came to the key point, he specifically looked at Chen Duling: "Teacher Chen is a science student, right? You can think of it as a problem-solving process: first build the framework, then fill in the details."

? ? ? ? ?

How come this guy knows everything?
Chen Duling listened to his eloquent explanation and couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly.

After Jiang Ye finished explaining, Su Youpeng fell into a brief silence.

He nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly clapped his hands: "That's all for today, everyone take a 20-minute break."

As everyone dispersed, Su Youpeng beckoned to assistant director Gao Chuan: "Old Gao, did you recommend that Xiao Jiang?"

Gao Chuan's heart skipped a beat, and his back instantly broke out in a cold sweat: "Director Su, has this kid gotten into trouble?"

He lowered his voice, his face contorted with pain: "I knew young people were unreliable! Don't be angry, I'll go teach him a lesson right now..."

He was about to turn around when Su Youpeng stopped him: "Wait, he was just talking about the theory of acting..."

"That's all nonsense!" Gao Chuan immediately retorted. "That kid just loves to show off; I'll definitely discipline him properly later!"

Su Youpeng: "."

He rubbed his temples helplessly: "What I meant was that he spoke very professionally."

Takagawa's expression froze instantly: "Huh?"

“He explained it even more clearly than I could,” Su Youpeng added. “I plan to make him my assistant director.”

"It just so happens that this is my first time directing, and I often find myself neglecting one thing for another."

Gao Chuan's expression immediately changed, and he patted his chest, saying, "Director Su, you've finally found the right person! This kid grew up on film sets, and his uncle is Lin Jianjun, a senior producer in the film division of Guangxian Media!"

"I could tell he was talented at first glance, so I specifically asked him to come!"

Su Youpeng gave him a half-smile: "Oh? Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"This isn't..." Gao Chuan chuckled dryly, rubbing his hands together, "I wanted him to get some experience from the grassroots level!"

……

"Quiet! I have an announcement to make." Gao Chuan stood in the center of the room with a megaphone, "Starting today, Jiang Ye will also serve as the assistant director, responsible for directing the new actors."

The film set immediately erupted in chaos.

"what's the situation?"

"Hasn't he only been here for three days?"

"What's this kid's background?"

"I heard his uncle is a senior executive at Enlight Media..."

"Damn, another one with connections!"

Amidst the murmurs, Jiang Ye swaggered up to Chen Duling with an arrogant air, a smug smile playing on his lips.

"Little Chen~" he deliberately dragged out the tone, "If you don't understand anything in the future, come to me anytime, don't be shy."

? ? ? ? ?

Small……?
Xiao Chen? ??

Chen Duling was so angry she almost bit her teeth to pieces!
