Huayu 2007: Starting with fleecing the "Fairy Sisters"

"Shishi, can you see the difference?"

After Wu Wei quietly shut down the system, he walked up to Liu Shishi and said, "First of all, my center of gravity is lower, while your center of gravity is higher and lighter due to your dance background. This makes your movements look a bit floaty."

After listening, Liu Shishi carefully recalled her actions and realized that it was indeed true.

She had never thought about this question before, but she felt that as a dance student, she had an advantage over ordinary people when filming action scenes.

However, unexpectedly, this advantage also concealed some disadvantages.

"Another difference is that our logic of generating power is different. Dance emphasizes extension, expansion, and gentleness; it requires restraint and control. But martial arts emphasizes instantaneous explosive power; it requires pauses and breaks..."

Liu Shishi listened while pondering with her head down.

Yuan Hong, Lin Yichen, and Li Jie, who were standing nearby, all unconsciously moved closer.

Each of them had a focused expression, as if they were attending a master class.

Lin Yichen, in particular, as the female lead Huang Rong, had far more action scenes than Liu Shishi.

Moreover, she doesn't have a background in dance, which puts her at a greater disadvantage.

So she silently remembered every word Wu Wei said.

Wu Wei continued, "Furthermore, when you perform movements, you unconsciously raise your hands, extend your wrists, and lengthen your lines. These small movements of a dancer look beautiful on stage, but they are superfluous in martial arts..."

"Uh-huh."

Liu Shishi listened and nodded, like a primary school student attentively listening to a lesson.

Wu Wei smiled as he looked at her. "Alright, the rest are just minor issues, so I won't go into detail. I'll explain them to you in more detail when I guide you later."

"Oh, do I have that many questions?"

Liu Shishi pouted, her expression somewhat dejected.

She was quite confident in her action scenes before, but as soon as Wu Wei opened his mouth, a whole bunch of questions came out.

Seeing this, Wu Wei immediately encouraged him, "Actually, you've already played very well, but I'm a professional, so I can naturally see a lot of problems when I look at you."

Liu Shishi looked up at him, as if to confirm whether his words were true or false.

"Besides, aren't I here to teach you?"

Wu Wei continued, "I will definitely help you correct all of these, so that you, Mu Nianci, can become the most beautifully fought Mu Nianci!"

Liu Shishi's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Why would I lie to you?"

Wu Wei patted his chest: "You're my leading lady. What if you don't act well after I lie to you?"

"No way!" Liu Shishi quickly replied, "How could I not act well?"

"I know," Wu Wei said with a smile and a wink. "I was just kidding."

Liu Shishi gave him a reproachful look, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curve into a smile.

"Let's go over there then."

Wu Wei pointed to the open space on the other side of the training room: "You practice each move one by one, and then I'll help you correct them."

"it is good."

Liu Shishi nodded.

As the two were about to walk that way, Yuan Hong shouted from behind, "Director Wu! You've finished teaching Shishi, can you teach me now? I still don't know how to exert force!"

Wu Wei turned his head away, somewhat speechless.

Bro, please don't bother me while I'm trying to get some freebies from Shishi, okay?

Shishi is my gold mine, so please step aside for now.

"Wait until I finish teaching Shishi," Wu Wei waved to him, "You can practice my movements on your own for a while first."

As soon as he turned around, Lin Yichen came over and said, "Um... Director Wu, could you teach me too? This fight scene is really difficult for me. I've been practicing for a long time but I still don't feel like I've mastered it."

Wu Wei had a good impression of Lin Yichen.

He was particularly fond of Yuan Xiangqin from "It Started With a Kiss," who was incredibly cute.

"Sure," Wu Wei nodded. "I'll take a look for you when I have time."

"Thanks!"

Lin Yichen smiled, her eyes crinkling, and happily stepped aside.

Wu Wei then led Liu Shishi to the other side of the training room and began his "one-on-one martial arts master instruction class".

"Lower the center of gravity and keep the chassis stable."

He stood behind Liu Shishi, watching her movements and occasionally correcting her.

"Lower your waist, yes, that's it..."

"Slightly lower your shoulders, don't hunch them inward, open your chest..."

"Don't breathe slowly and evenly. Hold your breath and explode at the moment of power, then exhale immediately afterward. This will greatly enhance your sense of power..."

As Liu Shishi listened, she carefully adjusted her movements.

Even if she didn't get it right the first time, she wasn't discouraged and asked to do it again.

Wu Wei watched her practice over and over again, feeling somewhat surprised.

He hadn't expected that Liu Shishi, who looked so gentle and weak, actually had a very strong personality.

If she didn't do the movements well, she would keep repeating them until she was satisfied with them, without any "good enough" attitude.

After several adjustments, she performed another set of moves, which were noticeably better than before.

Although there are still some minor flaws, the overall feel is there, and it has a bit of the feel of someone who has practiced martial arts.

Wu Wei felt very gratified to see her making continuous progress.

And in the process, the distance between the two people gradually narrowed without them even realizing it.

From being polite and reserved at the beginning, they were able to naturally crack some jokes later on.

Liu Shishi occasionally didn't do her movements perfectly, and Wu Wei would tease her a couple of times. She wouldn't get angry; instead, she would laugh and retort.

Cai Yulong stood at the door of the training room, watching the interaction between the two, her smile growing wider and wider.

She thought for a moment, then immediately took out her phone and sent a text message to the crew's dedicated behind-the-scenes photographer: "Hurry up and come to the training room in the Little White Building, there's something to film."

A short while later, the behind-the-scenes photographer arrived carrying a camera.

The so-called behind-the-scenes photographer is a staff member who specializes in recording behind-the-scenes footage on set. They usually shoot footage such as actors interacting and outtakes, which will be used for later promotional purposes.

After Cai Yulong whispered a few words to him, he raised the camera and pointed it at Wu Wei and Liu Shishi.

Wu Wei noticed someone was filming him, but didn't think much of it.

It's quite normal for the crew's behind-the-scenes cameramen to come and film the main actors' daily training sessions.

Yuan Hong practiced on his own for a while on the other side, but he couldn't find the right approach, and his movements were awkward.

Seeing Liu Shishi's obvious progress and her increasingly skillful movements, he became anxious and kept glancing at Wu Wei.

However, Wu Wei's heart was completely focused on Liu Shishi, and he didn't look in his direction at all.

After two hours, Yuan Hong finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Director Wu! I really can't go on! Please come and save me!"

Wu Wei turned his head and looked at his pitiful appearance, feeling both amused and exasperated.

"Okay, okay, I'm coming, I'm coming."

He turned to Liu Shishi and said, "You practice on your own first, go over the key points I just mentioned, and I'll go check on him."
