Not long after, Zhou Shian suddenly understood what the tissue was for. It was not for blowing one's nose, but for wiping one's tears.
However, he couldn't care less about that now. His eyes were red, and he wiped his tears while staring at Ding Ning's face, unwilling to miss any slight change in his expression.
The 387th scene was the scene where Ding Ning had auditioned. Su Mubai had returned from his studies, but his family had been wiped out. It was also the most difficult scene in the entire film.
Song Ziyi had already prepared the tissue. She wiped her tears while observing the changes in Ding Ning's expression.
Even though she had seen Ding Ning perform once, she still couldn't stop her tears.
Ding Ning didn't need any lines at all. With just a few changes in his expression and simple body language, he vividly expressed the self-blame, regret, guilt, sadness, despair, anger, and other extremely complicated inner thoughts of a young man who had been wiped out.
The performance had ended at some point. Director Pan had even forgotten to shout "cut". The cameramen's eyes were also red, and they were immersed in that sad mood. The camera crew was still working faithfully.
Ding Ning was speechless. He waved his hand and shouted, "Tut!"
Only then did everyone come back to their senses. Director Pan, whose face was full of tears, smiled embarrassedly and shouted "tut". Only then did the camera crew stop filming.
Suppressed sobs sounded on the scene. Everyone was immersed in that sad atmosphere and couldn't extricate themselves. The way they looked at Ding Ning had changed from jealousy and disdain to admiration and admiration.
Lin Bin's eyes were red. He solemnly bowed 90 degrees to Director Pan and Director Zhou and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I apologize to you. Director Pan is right. With Ding Ning's acting skills, I'm not even qualified to carry his shoes. I will leave the crew of my own accord. I'm really sorry!"
After saying that, he looked at Ding Ning with a complicated gaze and said shamefully, "I'm sorry. I was jealous of Mr. Ding and said arrogantly that you got into the crew because of your connections. I apologize to you here for bringing trouble to Mr. Ding. I'm sorry! Director Pan is really a discerning person. Mr. Ding's acting skills are definitely at the level of Best Actor. I, Lin Bin, am sincerely convinced! "
Lin Bin deeply bowed to Ding Ning to apologize, turned around, and walked out. From the beginning of Ding Ning's performance, he knew that he had lost. When he was infected by the plot and involuntarily immersed in the atmosphere where the seed wanted to grow but the parent was not there, he suddenly felt that he was ridiculous.
It's been almost seven years since his debut. After he made certain achievements, he gradually lost himself. He became arrogant and supercilious. He felt that his acting skills were not inferior to those veteran movie kings.
Therefore, he felt that no one was as good as him. He was too proud, arrogant, complacent, and lazy. He had long forgotten the days when he practiced his acting skills day after day in the harsh cold and hot weather.
But today, Ding Ning's amazing acting skills were like a blow to his head, making him suddenly realize that his acting skills were far from that of a real Best Actor. What right did he have to be proud? What right did he have to look down on others?
Although he had left this crew, he would never give up his acting career. One day, he would catch up with others.
Watching him walk away at a brisk pace, Director Pan showed a touch of relief in his eyes.
This guy can still be saved. If he hadn't been so arrogant and embarrassed before, Director Pan really wanted to persuade him to stay. This guy is a good seedling.
Zhou Shian had followed Director Pan for many years. Not to mention other things, he had a good eye for people. He could not help but shake his head regretfully. If this guy had this attitude earlier, he would have wanted to take him as a disciple.
Different from Director Pan, who had been in the directing industry, Zhou Shian did not study directing at first, but acting. When he was young, he had also worked hard in the film and television industry.
Unfortunately, he had played many roles in small roles, but he had never had the chance to become famous.
It was not until he was doing odd jobs in Director Pan's crew that he came into contact with the directing industry and developed a strong interest in it. He was smart, and Director Pan was a person who liked to guide the younger generation. Seeing that he seemed to be interested in being a director, he casually gave him some advice, but he did not expect that from then on, he could not stop himself and became deeply obsessed with the directing industry.
From then on, he stayed in Director Pan's crew. He did not ask for money, but only provided lunch boxes. Every day, he was busy running errands and doing odd jobs, just so that Director Pan could occasionally give him some advice in his spare time.
Director Pan really liked this smart young man. Although he did not openly take him as a disciple, he gave him a lot of advice and tried to let him do lighting, props, camera, and stage work …
He tried all the professions in the crew. It took him five years to learn all the professions in the crew, and Zhou Shian was promoted from an odd job to an assistant director in Director Pan's crew. His shooting style was deeply influenced by Pan's style.
Later, because Director Pan's films were good but not popular, the crew was disbanded for more than two years. Zhou Shian could not even get lunch boxes, so he had to find a way out on his own. He sold everything he had to earn some money, and with some investments from his friends, he filmed a low-budget movie.
No one expected that this low-budget movie, which had a total investment of less than two million, would become an instant hit. Its box office directly exceeded a hundred million, and it also made Zhou Shian, a new director who came from an unorthodox background, famous.
From then on, his path as a director was unstoppable, and he became one of the most famous directors in China.
Even though Director Pan had never admitted that he had taken him in as a disciple, he had always considered himself to be Director Pan's student.
During Director Pan's most difficult time, he even took out his savings over the years to invest in his movie. Of course, it was undoubtedly all for naught in the end.
But he never complained. Without Director Pan, he would not be where he was today. No matter how bad he became, Director Pan would always be his teacher. As long as his teacher needed help, he would not hesitate to help.
It was just that the overall environment of the film industry was not very good in the past two years, and his career had also reached a bottleneck period. So, he took a part-time job as a professor in Yan Opera, teaching students to earn money to support his family.
Every good director was a good actor. There was absolutely nothing wrong with this saying. Moreover, he himself graduated from acting, so he was absolutely qualified to take Lin Bin as his disciple.
"Did I say you can go?"
Just when they were secretly feeling sorry, Ding Ning suddenly raised his voice.
Lin Bin was slightly stunned. He stopped and turned around to ask, "I've already apologized? Is there anything else? "
"You did apologize, but did I say that I forgave you?"
Ding Ning took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. He tilted his mouth and squinted at Lin Bin, looking like a sloppy boy.
Lin Bin's face turned red. He gritted his teeth and said, "What else do you want?"
"What's wrong with you? You should at least apologize with some sincerity, right? Why are you so far away? Are you afraid that I will beat you? Come here. "
Ding Ning scolded in a domineering manner.
Song Ziyi couldn't stand it anymore. He leaned close to him and whispered, "It's not too much to kill someone. You should forgive him. He has apologized, but you still won't forgive him. You've gone too far."
"If an apology is useful, why do we need the police?"
Ding Ning didn't pay attention to him at all. He provocatively crooked his finger at Lin Bin. Song Ziyi was so angry that he snorted coldly and turned into the dressing room, too lazy to talk to him.
Lin Bin was furious in his heart. He thought that he had already realized his mistake and apologized, but this guy was still unforgiving. Was there any meaning to it?
Forget it. Since he had apologized, it was no big deal for him to lower his head again. At least he would finish what he started.
"Little Ding, what do you think?
What are you doing? Forget it. "
Zhou Shian couldn't stand it anymore. He frowned and persuaded him.
"What's the use of good acting skills? It's useless if you don't have a good character. "
"Lin Bin has taken the initiative to apologize and admit his mistake. How can this person be like this?"
"Alas! I just said that Director Pan has good taste. Now I take back my words. "
"Shh, lower your voice. Don't let Director Pan hear it. Maybe we'll be driven away."
"Director Pan is not that kind of unreasonable person. Lin Bin was not in the right state and talked back to Director Zhou. That's why Director Zhou got angry."
…
The participants began to discuss in low voices. They looked at Ding Ning with disdain once again.
Only Director Pan had a thoughtful look on his face. Based on his understanding of Ding Ning, he knew that this boy was not the kind of person who would not forgive others when he was in the right. He must have a reason for doing this, so he simply kept silent and waited to see what he was up to.
"If the apology just now didn't satisfy you, then I'll apologize to you again now. I'm sorry! Please forgive me. "
Lin Bin made a deep ninety-degree bow again and apologized with full sincerity.
With a cigarette in his mouth, Ding Ning squinted his eyes and picked his ears with his fingers. He slanted his mouth and said, "What did you say? Louder, I can't hear you clearly. "
Lin Bin clenched his fists angrily and shouted, "I'm sorry, please forgive me."
"You want me to forgive you?"
Ding Ning showed a look of understanding and said as if he deserved a beating, "No way, unless …"
"Unless what?"
Lin Bin didn't like Ding Ning at all now, so he gnashed his teeth and said.
"Unless you can pass the one that you didn't pass before, so that you won't drag me down when we act together, I will consider whether to forgive you or not. Director Pan, is that okay?"
Ding Ning said lazily.
"For your sake, no problem."
Director Pan smiled. He knew that the big boss was not a narrow-minded person. He found a way for him and Zhou Shian to step down.
"Okay, I'll take a rest. Call me if you need anything."
After that, Ding Ning turned around and walked to his special dressing room with a lazy look. His wives were all in there, so he had to go and greet them.
Others couldn't enter the crew, but it was a piece of cake for his wives to come in quietly. It was just a matter of temporarily installing a Transmitting Formation base.
Lin Bin was stunned.
Zhou Shian was stunned.
All the people on the scene were stunned.
Everyone quickly came back to their senses. They weren't looking for trouble with Lin Bin. They were simply giving him a chance to stay in the crew.
Most importantly, Director Pan had also agreed. This meant that Lin Bin would not be fired again. It was a happy ending for everyone.
This made them look at Ding Ning in a different way again. They couldn't figure out what kind of person this guy was.
Lin Bin's eyes flickered with gratitude. He stared at his swaying back and forth like a hooligan. He quietly clenched his fists and muttered in his heart, "Just wait and see. I, Lin Bin, will never hold you back."
"Cut, he passed."
It turned out that Lin Bin's acting skills were quite good. When he concentrated, he passed in one go.
But this was normal. If he didn't have acting skills, Director Pan wouldn't have chosen him as the second male lead through his audition.
If he hadn't been jealous and absent-minded before, which led to his abnormal performance, he wouldn't have been cut so many times and caused such a disturbance.
