"Ready!"
Chu Ming glared at Chen Guang, holding the scroll in his right hand. He raised it up high and swung it down. "Start!"
While he was shouting this, he was thinking that today was the day where he could officially start work after mustering so many people.
I guess I'll have to spend the entire day on this one.
Sigh, this artist is too big. He's so hard to please.
Do I really have to chop off every single one of his? "
Those were just words he said out of anger.
No matter how good Chu Ming was, no matter how capable he was, no matter how principled he was, he still had to rely on his boss to make a living. If he messed this up, the others would replace him in the end, and he would waste his time by offending 12 companies that were considered to be the leaders of all industries in the country. It was not worth it.
Sigh, forget it, I'll just admit defeat.
I'll just destroy my reputation once. I'll just stick it back up later.
Unknowingly, Chu Ming's mind wandered. He had to call his assistant back to reality.
"Director Chu... Director Chu? We're done with the first scene. "
The assistant patted Chu Ming's shoulder with a trembling hand. His eyes were still looking forward, his face full of disbelief.
Chu Ming didn't think much of it. "Oh, oh, cut! Again! Again! "
"Director Chu, aren't you going to look at the first scene?"
"What's there to look at? It's just the first scene. What can it look like? Let's walk around and get a feel for it. It's all digital anyway. We don't need tape. Let's take a few more scenes and slowly improve."
The assistant hesitated. "Director Chu, why don't you take a look first?"
"Sigh! I say, what's wrong with you? "
Chu Ming was furious.
His assistant felt wronged. He wanted to say something, but he didn't want to get into trouble.
Shen Yuliang, who was standing behind Chu Ming, spoke up. "Old Chu, take a look first."
He couldn't ignore his sugar daddy. Chu Ming pouted. "I'll take a look. What else can I do?"
He just felt a little strange. Why was everyone looking at him a little strange? These people seemed to be laughing at him?
What's the meaning of this?
Sigh, I'm the director!
Not only his assistant, but even the lighting technician and cameraman next to him had a dull look on their faces. Some of them even smiled faintly at him.
When Chu Ming's eyes fell onto the surveillance cameras, he saw a total of four different angles of Chen Guang. Compared to the others, Chen Guang wasn't any different from them, and he was dumbfounded.
At first, when Yang Xi told him that Chen Guang's acting was very good, he only thought that Yang Xi was saving face for Chen Guang and did not believe him.
However, when he saw Chen Guang holding onto the actress, his face full of anxiety as he slowly but steadily moved forward, Chu Ming was stunned.
His perfect expression was full of anxiety and nervousness. It seemed that every time the actress frowned and pretended to moan, his emotions would change like ripples. Even through the monitor, one could feel the intense emotions gushing out of his body.
His movements were perfect. Not only did he meet all the requirements he had mentioned, he even added some more subtle expressions and movements.
Looking at the bulging veins on the back of his hand, it was obvious that he was using all his strength, but he was afraid of hurting the 'pregnant woman'.
However, that wasn't what shocked Chu Ming the most. Instead, he discovered that there was something in Chen Guang's emotions that he hadn't told Chen Guang about.
Expectation. That's right. This was the feeling that every expectant father would have when facing his wife who was about to give birth. He was looking forward to the birth of his son or daughter. This was the joy of being a father, but this kind of feeling was often hidden behind worry.
Even Chu Ming hadn't thought of this, or rather, even if he had, he wouldn't have mentioned it. It was too difficult, almost too harsh. Not many professional actors were willing to go through the trouble of challenging such complicated emotions.
After all, as long as he could do the first two things, it would be a perfect performance.
However, Chen Guang did it. He achieved the true meaning of perfection.
She didn't know if she was hallucinating, but at that moment, the person in front of her was no longer an actor, nor was it that annoying Internet celebrity. Instead, it was an anxious expectant father.
That was scary!
This was just an audition for the first scene!
What was he doing?
This was clearly the work of a master actor. After going through the role, he immersed himself perfectly into the role.
This was the most experienced acting!
How did this guy do it?
Before this, she had only talked to him briefly about the script. She didn't expect anything from him!
However, the moment he shouted 'start', he became a different person, completely immersed in the role.
Chu Ming's breathing quickened. This was different from Yang Xi's first time seeing Chen Guang act as Will Smith's version of Muhammad Ali. This time, he was on set. He could read Chen Guang's performance in slow motion.
Gradually, he fell silent. He even lost track of time as he replayed the footage on the monitor over and over again. Half the speed, a quarter of the speed, an eighth of the speed, and finally, a sixteenth of the speed.
Despite Chen Guang's short five-second scene, Chu Ming spent a total of fifteen minutes trying to figure it out.
However, the more he analyzed, the more terrified and happy he became.
He was terrified because Chen Guang's acting skills had reached a level that made him panic. It was as if the director's existence was meaningless in front of an actor like this.
His joy came from the fact that he was perhaps the first person to witness the birth of an unprecedented performance master in front of a camera.
What kind of glory was this?
Chen Guang had already expected Chu Ming's reaction. However, he maintained a calm expression as he chatted with the model that had a fake stomach.
"Let me tell you, with your palm reading, you'll be rich in the future."
"Really, Brother Almighty? You know how to read palms? "
"Of course. You already know I'm called Superman Almighty. Reading palms is part of my profession."
"Then, Brother Almighty, can you read my luck with the ladies?"
"Ah, miss, you haven't had much luck with the ladies lately, but it looks like you're in for a disaster!"
The pitiful model was so frightened by Chen Guang's expression that her face turned pale. "Is that true? What should I do? "
"There's a way. Miss, come to my room tonight. I'll perform a ritual for you."
Chen Guang said seriously.
"Sure!"
Chen Guang's eyes widened. Why did you agree?
Shouldn't you poke my head and say, "Brother Almighty, are you really a bad person?"
Your performance is a little different from what I thought it would be!
