Chapter 94: Disfigurement-like Acting Skills Shock Chen Guanxi
Chapter 94: Disfigurement-like Acting Skills Shock Chen Guanxi
Jiang Feng plays Sha Qiang, a small-time hoodlum, and his appearance needs to fit the image of a hoodlum as closely as possible.
The makeup artist gave him a buzz cut, but left a tuft of long hair at the back. He also had an earring in his left ear and a cross pendant around his neck.
Jiang Feng looked at himself in the mirror and felt that his makeup and styling looked somewhat familiar.
When he saw Chen Guanxi standing to the side, he immediately realized what was going on.
Isn't this just like Chen Guanxi?
Chen Guanxi sized up Jiang Feng and grinned roguishly, "Jiang Feng, you look much better than before."
Upon hearing this, the female makeup artist immediately connected it to the rumors between the two. Seeing Jiang Feng and Chen Guanxi "so well-matched," a fangirl's smile appeared on her face.
Jiang Feng ignored Chen Guanxi, who was so conspicuous.
I really can't agree with his bizarre aesthetic sense.
After finishing his makeup, Jiang Feng arrived at the filming location.
Chen Guanxi also came over, mainly to see how good Jiang Feng's acting skills were and whether the character biography method was effective.
He even watched with a "let's have some fun" attitude, hoping that Jiang Feng would make a mistake in his performance and get a scolding from Liu Weiqiang.
That way, he could feel a little more at peace with himself.
We're all the same age, so I can't be the only one getting scolded, right?
Good brothers should share both good times and bad.
Jiang Feng secretly added 50 points to his "rogue" attribute, which he obtained from Chen Guanxi.
With the addition of a thug attribute, his temperament changed drastically. His previous refined and elegant image vanished, and he transformed into an uneducated, irresponsible, and low-level hoodlum.
To paraphrase a line from Daniel Wu in "Gen-X Cops"—
"It's just a small, empty hill!"
That's right, Jiang Feng no longer looks like a college student. Both his appearance and demeanor are exactly like those of a gangster.
Andy Lau smiled and said to Lau Wai-keung, "Now you can finally rest assured, right? I told you long ago that his acting skills would make people overlook his looks."
Liu Weiqiang was initially a little worried that Jiang Feng's image and temperament were not suitable for playing a petty thug.
Seeing Jiang Feng now, who was completely different from usual, I finally felt relieved.
"It seems I was worrying unnecessarily. Jiang Feng looks so good now that he could play a role in my 'Young and Dangerous' movie without any sense of incongruity."
Chen Guanxi was also surprised by Jiang Feng's transformation.
Is this the legendary disfiguring acting?
Next, Liu Weiqiang explained the scenes that were about to be filmed to Jiang Feng.
This is a night scene, and the plot is very simple.
It's about Han Chen and the Thai guy making a deal inside.
Jiang Feng, who plays Sha Qiang, and another person are waiting in a car outside.
The actor who acted alongside him was named Lin Di'an.
This person may look unremarkable, but he actually has a remarkable background.
He started learning martial arts from Xu Xiaoming, the director of "The Legendary Fok Yuan-gap", when he was 9 years old. Later, he also learned karate, tai chi, mantis boxing and so on. After that, he worked as a martial arts instructor under Cheng Xiaodong.
He was the martial arts choreographer for Liu Weiqiang's films "The Storm Riders" and "Hua Yingxiong".
In addition, he also served as the action choreographer for the Hollywood blockbuster "The Matrix" with Yuen Ho-ping, and has a certain international reputation.
Jiang Feng has always held such talented people in high esteem.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to shake his hand, I managed to extract quite a few attributes from him, including karate, mantis boxing, and martial arts choreography.
"Jiang Feng, this scene is very simple for you. Let's try to get it in one take."
Liu Weiqiang was giving Jiang Feng a pep talk, as he had a lot of confidence in Jiang Feng's acting skills.
With everything ready, filming officially began.
"Scene 52 of The Departed, three shots, one take."
"Action!"
As the script supervisor struck the clapperboard.
Sitting in the car, Jiang Feng immediately got into performance mode.
He sat in the car, cautiously observing the passersby around him.
A couple by the roadside caught his attention.
He quickly pulled his head back and said to Lin Dian beside him, "Are those two guys watching us?"
Lin Dian, still unaware of anything amiss, asked疑惑地问道, "Which two guys are watching you?"
Jiang Feng glanced at the couple.
"Those two guys!"
Lin Dian still didn't realize something was wrong, thinking Jiang Feng was making a fuss over nothing.
The couple were indeed plainclothes officers.
From this perspective, Sha Qiang is not actually stupid; on the contrary, he is smarter than many people.
He seems foolish simply because he is honest and straightforward, and doesn't like to play tricks; he has a kind of profound wisdom that appears as foolishness.
There are many such people in real life. They seem silly and easy to fool, but they are actually kind, disdain scheming, and are very perceptive.
Sha Qiang could tell something was wrong with the stranger on the roadside with just a casual glance, but what about Chen Yongren, who was with him day and night?
Did he really not notice anything fishy at all?
Jiang Feng still leans more towards the belief that Sha Qiang suspects Chen Yongren is an undercover agent.
In this way, the character will be more complete and three-dimensional.
Although it wasn't explicitly stated in the script, he still decided to act in that direction.
The scene was very simple, lasting less than a minute, and Jiang Feng nailed it in one take.
This greatly disappointed Chen Guanxi, who was waiting to watch the drama unfold.
After filming the scene, Liu Weiqiang said to everyone, "The weather forecast says it will rain tomorrow night, so let's work overtime tonight and film the scene for tomorrow night as well."
No one objected, nor dared to object.
So Jiang Feng and Lin Di'an followed the film crew to a beach, which was the place where Han Chen and the Thai man made their deal in the film.
Jiang Feng was collecting the goods on the boat when Lin Dian, on the shore, received a phone call. Learning that their plan had been exposed, she immediately shouted at Jiang Feng, "Sha Qiang, throw the goods into the sea!"
Jiang Feng quickly poured the flour from the bag into the sea.
This uses real flour.
Perhaps it was the motivational talk from Liu Weiqiang that worked, as Jiang Feng performed very steadily, and this rather difficult scene was completed in just two takes.
His acting was flawless; it was the extras who dragged the performance down.
An extra playing a policeman accidentally fell into the water.
After filming this scene, it was already past 10 p.m., but Liu Weiqiang still wouldn't let everyone go and wanted to film another indoor scene.
So everyone had no choice but to muster their spirits and go inside the prepared room.
The main characters in this scene are Tsang Chi-wai and Wong Chu-sang, and it tells the story of the first direct confrontation between Han Chen and Wong Sir.
Jiang Feng and Lin Di'an, these underlings, can just stand on the sidelines and act as background figures; they basically don't need to perform.
Inside the "police station" room, the police and criminals were separated by a large table, presenting a confrontational situation with a tense atmosphere.
Zeng Zhiwei and Huang Chusheng sat facing each other, with their men standing behind them.
On the table was a chessboard that was half-finished.
According to the script, Tsang Chi-wai and Wong Chu-sang will play chess while having a conversation, using the game of chess as a metaphor for the contest between the two sides.
However, Liu Weiqiang always felt that something was missing. What was originally a very simple indoor scene took several takes to get right.
Zeng Zhiwei and Huang Chusheng were getting a little impatient.
"Director, what exactly is wrong with our acting?"
Liu Weiqiang scratched his head in frustration and said irritably, "Your performance was perfect, but I feel like something's not quite right, but I can't figure out what the problem is."
Everyone fell silent.
At this moment, Jiang Feng, who was behind Zeng Zhiwei, suddenly spoke up.
"Director Liu, could it be a problem with the script?"
