Huayu: What the heck is it that the actor gave me CS skills?

"Keep it up, Brother Yu!"

Wang Churan was also there, sporting the two sideburns of an ancient girl, and pumping her fist at him in encouragement.

Yu Suchong nodded to her, then walked toward Ren Yilun.

Wang Churan followed his gaze, but in her heart she was praying that Yu Su wouldn't be a disappointment.

Every time they failed, the assistant director would pull Yu Ge away.

She didn't know exactly what he did, but when the screams echoed throughout the entire crew, she knew how much Yu Ge was suffering.

"Xiao Yu, aren't you going to take a few more moments to think it over?"

Ren Yilun looked at him with concern, but Yu Su shook his head: "Just come on, bro."

"Alright."

At the start of the round, the script supervisor made a gesture, and he immediately took out his clapperboard and walked in front of the camera.

"Oh My General, Scene 10, Shot 2, First Take!"

"start!"

Once the clapperboard begins, each player takes their turn.

Today's scene depicts Prince Zhao Yujin of Nanping preparing to go to the gambling den to settle scores with the villain Lu Zhenting.

Ren Yilun's eyes flashed with frost as he roared, "Xia Zi, pass down the order: search this gambling den from top to bottom!"

Yu Su took a deep breath and initiated the emergency stop to get into character.

one second.

two seconds.

Three seconds...

Yu Su exhaled again, because he had managed to catch one of the three failed attempts.

"..."

The scene was quiet; no one spoke.

After a long while, a sound effect card was played by Gao Zigang.

The lights and cameras were back in place, and everyone returned to their previous positions. They prepared for the second take.

Yu Su's face was very tense, not only because of Lao Deng's murderous gaze, but also because of the indifferent attitude of the people around him.

No one seemed surprised; they appeared to be used to it.

This dealt a severe blow to Yu Su's self-esteem!

Ren Yilun sighed, patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, just relax."

Yu Su nodded silently, without saying a word.

The script supervisor hesitated for a long time, and seeing that no one spoke, he looked at Gao Zigang with a searching gaze: "Director Gao?"

Just as Gao Zigang was about to say a few words of advice, Yu Su suddenly raised his hand and said, "That's enough."

Gao Zigang sighed, and the stage manager nodded.

"Oh My General, Scene 10, Shot 2, First Take!"

"start!"

That Lu Zhenting is absolutely despicable!

Ren Yilun's eyes flashed with rage once more as he roared, "Xia Zi, pass down the order: search this gambling den from top to bottom!"

Originally, after Ren Yilun said that, he was already preparing to turn around and offer some words of comfort.

After all, if Yu Su didn't take three hits in the past, he wouldn't be Yu Su.

Available in the next second.

Yu Su's voice rang out beside him: "Yes, Your Highness! This servant will take care of it immediately!"

Ren Yi was somewhat surprised, but still went along with it.

"..."

After the scene ended, Ren Yilun patted Yu Su on the shoulder: "You're pretty good, kid!"

Yu Su remained silent, his attention focused on the system panel.

[Emergency Stop Practice (Offline Acting): 2/10 (10%)]

If it were practiced privately, it would take at least ten or more attempts to count as one success, but just now, a single sentence counted it as a success.

In that case...

Yu Su looked at Ren Yilun and sincerely suggested, "Brother, how about we play again? I think my tone was a bit off just now."

Any round: "..."

You're a lackey, a supporting character. You only have one line, and nobody cares if your tone is right or wrong.

But looking into Yu Su's sincere eyes, I thought of his assistant director uncle.

Ren Yilun nodded helplessly and waved to the director: "Director Gao, let's do it again. The emotion wasn't right just now."

He didn't mention what Yu Su had requested, since the crew knew about the relationship between the uncle and nephew.

Gao Zigang was quite respectful to the lead actor, nodding to the script supervisor, who then pulled out his clapperboard once again.

"Oh My General, Scene 10, Shot 2, First Take!"

"start!"

Lu Zhenting is such a truly despicable villain!

Ren Yilun's eyes were filled with icy rage as he roared, "Xia Zi, pass down the order to search this gambling den from top to bottom!"

Yu Su once again abruptly stopped and successfully got into character: "Yes, Your Highness! This servant will take care of it immediately!"

"..."

After the performance, Ren Yilun looked surprised and said, "You were in great shape today!"

He succeeded twice out of three times. Did this kid really manage to pull it off?

Ren Yilun thought of the boast Yu Su had made in the dressing room.

Yu Su chuckled and turned his gaze back to the panel.

[Emergency Stop Practice (Offline Acting): 3/10 (10%)]

"This is the third time!"

"Let's do it two more times, and then practice for a few more hours after that, and we'll be able to push it to 80%."

Thinking of this, Yu Su didn't bother Ren Yilun anymore and ran towards Gao Zigang on his own.

Ren Yilun paused for a moment, looking at Yu Su with a puzzled expression.

Gao Zigang glared at his adopted nephew with annoyance: "What is it now?"

"Uncle, could we do this one again?"

"Hasn't the performance already finished?"

"I'm getting into the groove now. Let's do it one more time, and I'll be able to stabilize!"

Yu Su's expression was very sincere. Although Gao Zigang was usually cruel to him, he had to support his nephew who was so ambitious.

After thinking for a moment, Gao Zigang waved his hand at him and said irritably, "Alright, I know, go ahead."

Yu Su ran back.

Ren Yilun was about to ask him what he had been doing when he saw Gao Zigang shout, "Let's do it again! The camera was a little off just now, everyone please bear with us."

Cameraman: "??"

Yu Su's idea was very simple.

His role is very small, and there's only one scene today. Since it's a formal filming session, watching the scenes will be more efficient.

Then he'll take more pictures.

Ren Yilun was somewhat speechless and sighed.

I think Lu Zhenting is a complete beast!

His eyes blazed with fury as he roared, "Xia Zi, pass down the order: search this gambling den from top to bottom!"

Yu Su was fortunate enough to successfully switch gears this time, blurting out, "Yes, Your Highness! This servant will take care of it immediately!"

After taking this picture, Ren Yilun caught a glimpse of Yu Su's right hand as if he wanted to raise it again.

He quickly called out, "Director Gao! Okay, let's move on to the next scene!"

He was getting a little numb; he was really tired of having to clap one line of lyrics three times.

Yu Su was a little reluctant, after all, he only had one scene and one line today.

But seeing that the rest of the crew had already started packing up and moving on to another location, Yu Su had no choice but to give up on the idea.

He acted willfully once, and everyone tolerated it because of his uncle. But if he does it a few more times, his uncle will probably have to come up and beat him.

"That's settled then."

Yu Su sighed, staring at the task that had already been completed four times on the panel, feeling somewhat frustrated.

Seeing this, Wang Churan thought he was upset because he hadn't acted well, so she came over to comfort him and said, "Brother Yu, it was actually pretty good. At least you only had one mishap today."

Although it was reshot twice.

But neither of those times was when the director yelled "cut"; the actors felt it wasn't right and had to do it again.

So basically, only the first time was Yu Su's fault.

Yu Su: "Thank you."

Wang Churan waved her hand: "No need to thank me, I'll need your help with filming later."

"..."

"Another circus?"

"It wasn't me riding the horse, it was my sister riding the horse."

"You're afraid of this too?"

Yu Su was shocked. It's one thing for you to ride a horse yourself, but you're afraid of other people riding horses too.

Wang Churan blushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed: "I don't know, I'm just scared."

Yu Su hummed in agreement, somewhat speechless, but still gave in.

But he was still concerned about the remaining six practice sessions.
