Huayu Entertainment: It was the young actress who took the initiative.
Chapter 56 Highlight Scene
The next day, morning.
The atmosphere on the set of "Princess Agents" was somewhat somber.
Today we're filming one of the climax scenes of the entire series.
On the day of Yan Xun's wedding to Princess Yuan Chun, Yan Xun led his army in rebellion and massacred Chang'an.
Princess Yuan Chun, dressed in her wedding gown, pleaded with her brother Yan Xun to turn back during their exchange of words.
This scene is extremely emotionally intense, posing a huge challenge to both lead actors.
The film set had been set up to resemble a war zone, with "corpses played by extras" scattered around and fake blood splattered on the ground, creating a scene of utter chaos.
Chen Mo arrived at the dressing room early.
Yan Xun's look today is completely different from his usual appearance.
No longer was he wearing a precious purple-gold brocade robe, but a suit of black armor with a dark red cloak draped over his shoulders.
Her hair was half-tied up, with a few stray strands falling in front of her forehead. Her face was specially made up with battle-damaged makeup, with "bloodstains" at the corners of her mouth and dark circles under her eyes.
The makeup artist said as she applied the final touches to his makeup:
"Teacher Chen Mo, you look really fierce today."
Chen Mo looked at himself in the mirror.
Under the entry for "Eagle's Gaze and Wolf's Gaze," his eyes are described as fierce and his demeanor as menacing.
At 9:00 a.m., all departments were ready.
"Scene 78, Shot 1 of 'Princess Agents,' Action!"
The clapperboard is struck.
The camera shoots from a high altitude.
The scene had become a living hell, with soldiers fighting and firelight illuminating the sky.
Yan Xun stood on the high steps, his black armor cloak fluttering in the wind. He coldly watched everything, his eyes devoid of any warmth.
"Brother Yan Xun—!"
A piercing cry pierced through the sounds of battle.
The camera zooms in.
Princess Yuan Chun, played by Li Qin, appeared before him.
Her wedding dress was torn, her phoenix crown was askew, her pearls and jade were scattered, and her face was stained with blood and tears.
Hearing the shout, Chen Mo slowly looked at her.
With the added benefit of the term "Eagle's Gaze and Wolf's Gaze".
His eyes changed completely.
He is no longer the gentle and refined Prince of Yanbei, but an avenger who has returned from hell.
His eyes were cold and ruthless, carrying a world-destroying determination; just one glance from him was enough to send chills down one's spine.
Li Qin ran up to him, but because she was running too fast, she stumbled and fell to the ground.
She looked up, tears streaming down her face.
"Yan Xun...brother..."
Her voice trembled, filled with a desperate plea.
"I beg you... please don't do this... today is our wedding day..."
Chen Mo looked down at her, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
"Chun'er, move aside."
His voice was calm, eerily calm.
"I won't allow it!"
Li Lin's voice was hysterical and filled with pain.
"If you want to rebel, you'll have to step over my dead body!"
At this moment, the term "emotional contagion" quietly took effect.
The cold, destructive emotion emanating from Chen Mo spread out as if it were a tangible thing.
As a fellow actor, Li Lin's perceptions were amplified to the extreme.
She felt as if she were truly in that hell of blood and fire, and her lover had become a strange demon.
The pain of being betrayed, abandoned, and destroyed transformed from words on the script into a personal experience.
"Click—"
Li Lin heard the sound of her own heart breaking.
Her tears were no longer an act, but a genuine outpouring of despair from the depths of her heart.
"Brother Yan Xun..."
Her voice was broken and almost incoherent, "This isn't real...please don't rebel!"
Behind the monitor, director Wu Jinyuan held his breath.
The assistant director whispered, "Li Lin is in such great form today... that sense of brokenness is amazing."
Chen Mo looked at Li Lin, who was in tears, and wavered for a moment, but only for a moment.
"Chun'er,"
He looked at her, a complex emotion flashing deep in his eyes.
There was pain, there was guilt, but more than anything, there was a resolute determination to burn one's bridges.
"Your father never intended to marry you to me. If I don't rebel today, I'll die anyway."
No—that's not it.
Li Qin screamed in despair, crying her heart out. Her makeup was ruined, and her beauty took on a tragic and broken quality amidst her despair.
Chen Mo closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
When I opened my eyes again, all the hesitation had vanished, leaving only a cold resolve.
"Take the princess away."
He said coldly to the soldier next to him.
"Yan Xun—! Yan Xun—!"
Li Qin was dragged backward by the "soldier." She struggled, cried out, and reached out to grab him, but the distance between them grew further and further.
The camera lingers on her desperately outstretched hand, her fingertips trembling and stained with blood.
Then it slowly moved upwards, aiming at Chen Mo.
He had his back to her and never turned around.
The figure in black armor appeared solitary and resolute in the firelight, his cloak billowing wildly in the wind like a black eagle spreading its wings.
"Card--!"
Director Wu Jinyuan stood up excitedly:
"Pass! That's fantastic!"
The set was silent for a few seconds, then applause broke out.
Li Qin was still kneeling on the ground, unable to break free from her emotions, her shoulders trembling slightly.
The assistant quickly ran up to her, draped a coat over her shoulders, and handed her tissues.
Chen Mo also stood still, taking several deep breaths before pulling himself out of Yan Xun's state.
He walked towards Li Qin and reached out to help her up.
"Sister Lin, are you alright?"
Li Qin raised her head, her eyes red and swollen, but she had stopped crying.
She looked at Chen Mo, hesitated for a few seconds, and then shook her head:
"It's nothing... I just feel a little... unable to get out."
"Sister Lin, you acted so well."
With the added boost of the "emotional contagion" tag, Li Qin's emotional expression just now was incredibly impactful.
Director Wu walked over, patted Chen Mo on the shoulder, and looked at Li Lin:
"Today's scene could be considered a textbook example. Especially Li Lin, the layers of her breakdown, from pleading to despair to heartbreak, were very complete."
"Thank you, director."
Li Lin's voice was still a little hoarse.
"Chen Mo, too, the struggle and determination in his eyes the moment he pushed her away were handled with such subtlety."
Wu Jinyuan was very satisfied. "Alright, take a break and prepare for the next match."
During the intermission, the crew was still discussing the scene they had just filmed.
"My God, Li Qin's crying broke my heart..."
"Chen Mo's gaze was terrifying; I got goosebumps even through the screen."
"The acting of these two is so captivating!"
Not far away, Wang Yanlin whispered to Deng Lun:
"Chen Mo... his acting skills are pretty amazing."
In that scene just now, you couldn't tell that he was a complete newcomer who had only been in the industry for a year, and he was even able to draw out the emotions of his co-stars.
Look at Li Lin, her acting is usually not bad, but it's noticeably better today.
Li Qin rested in the rest area for a while before gradually calming down.
She took the warm water handed to her by her assistant, sipped it slowly, and her gaze unconsciously drifted towards Chen Mo.
He was discussing the action sequences for the next fight scene with the martial arts director; his profile was sharply defined under the lights, showing his seriousness and focus.
Li Lin's heart was still filled with the intense emotions from the play, and she suddenly remembered what Chen Mo had said at dinner last night:
"As long as you're willing to believe in me, that's enough."
A complex feeling welled up inside me.
