During lunch, Xiao Yunhai said, "The first scene is between me and Teacher Wang Tianming. It's our opening shot. I hope everyone can go and take a look. "
Li Chongxu smiled and said, "I haven't seen Old Wang's scenes in many years. I was just wondering if he has improved."
Wang Tianming wasn't modest at all. He said confidently, "Then you can wait and see."
After lunch, everyone went to the set. While Xiao Yunhai and Wang Tianming were putting on makeup, everyone started to talk.
"Sister Wan Qing, why did Brother Xiao use this scene as the first scene? You have to know that this scene is very important in the whole movie. It's the ending of all the conflicts in the whole movie. Can't he wait until everyone is more or less familiar with each other? "Lin Lu asked, puzzled.
Chen Jie, Hu Wanzong, Chu Chao, Han Shuwen, and the other actors turned to look at Zhao Wanqing. They also didn't understand why Xiao Yunhai wanted to shoot this scene.
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Lin Lu, do you remember when we were filming 'Empresses in the Palace'? What was the first scene we shot?"
Lin Lu said, "Of course I remember. At that time, it was the final duel between you and Senior Yu Yuexian. "
Zhao Wanqing nodded and said, "That's right. Your senior is a person who values efficiency the most. He won't be like other directors who give us time to get used to each other. Just like 'Empresses in the Palace', he and Teacher Wang directly shot the most conflicting scene. The purpose was to set a benchmark for us and not let us relax at all. It's just that last time, he chose me and Sister Yuexian. This time, he chose himself and Teacher Wang. "
Zhang Guoyang smiled and said, "Director Xiao is trying to show us who's boss? Through his scene with Teacher Wang, he's telling us that if we feel that our acting isn't as good as theirs, we should act honestly and seriously. "
Zhang Xinyi said, "That's right. Director Xiao means that."
Chu Chao asked softly, "What if Director Xiao and Teacher Wang fail?"
Lin Lu spat and said, "With their acting skills, do you think they'll mess it up?"
Zhao Wanqing said, "Lin Lu, I'm actually very worried. Teacher Wang hasn't acted in six years. Ever since your Senior Brother appeared in 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms', he has only acted in comedy roles that don't require much acting skills. I'm afraid that the two of them won't be used to it since it's their first time here. "
Zhao Chongxu said, "There's no need to worry. Since they dared to do this, they should have made all the necessary preparations. Let's wait and see. "
In the midst of everyone's discussion, Xiao Yunhai and Wang Tianming walked out together.
This scene was the climax of the whole movie. There was no such scene in the original novel. The main point was that Mei Changsu wanted to present the letter that Xie Yu and the others had harmed Prince Qi and the 70,000 soldiers of the Red Flame Army to Emperor Liang. However, Emperor Liang didn't dare to face it. After a fierce confrontation, Emperor Liang finally agreed to investigate the case. However, the condition was that Mei Changsu, who was Lin Shu, couldn't live in the imperial court anymore.
This scene was an internal scene. The emotional conflict was very big. It was a test of the actors' acting skills.
In order to pass this scene in one go, the two of them had discussed it several times in private. Now was the time to hand in the script.
Although Xiao Yunhai and Wang Tianming came together, they didn't speak or communicate at all. It was as if they were immersed in their own world.
The arrival of the two of them made the entire set quiet. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the two of them, one old and one young, who were about to face off.
One of them was a veteran actor. His acting skills weren't inferior to any of the best actors in Hua Xia. The other was called the greatest demon in the history of the entertainment industry. His acting skills had been praised by countless best actors and actresses.
In everyone's hearts, the scene between the two of them was definitely like a comet crashing into Earth.
Xiao Yunhai asked Li Yonggang, "Teacher Li, we need to capture Teacher Wang's and my facial expressions and subtle body movements for this scene. We can't be careless. Have the cameras been set? "
Li Yonggang said confidently, "Director Xiao, don't worry. There are no problems."
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Zhao Zhen, you will be directing this scene. Remember, don't say cut if there are no problems. It would be best if Teacher Wang and I can finish it in one go. "
Zhao Zhen said, "I understand."
After Xiao Yunhai finished assigning the work, he checked the set again. After confirming that there were no problems, he said to Wang Tianming, "Teacher Wang, can we begin?"
Wang Tianming sat on the dragon throne. He seemed to be brewing his emotions. When he heard Xiao Yunhai's words, he only nodded. However, he didn't say anything.
Xiao Yunhai took a deep breath and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, there was no longer the sharpness of a martial artist in his eyes. They had become gentle, mellow, calm, and wise.
The sword-like aura on his body had also been completely withdrawn. Coupled with his thin figure, everyone felt that the person standing there at this moment was exactly the same as the wise Mei Changsu in their minds.
"Amazing. He changed his temperament so smoothly and skillfully. This is definitely the work of an award-winning actor, "Zhao Chongxu said softly from the side.
"That's not right. Although an average award-winning actor can do what Director Xiao did just now, it would take time to prepare. To be able to do this in such a short time, there are less than five award-winning actors and actresses I've worked with. "Wang Zhongmou sighed.
"To be able to do this at twenty-one years old, what a monster," Xu Hongjun said.
"What's wrong with Old Wang? He's deserted now. He shouldn't have this kind of power anymore. "Wang Zhongmou looked at Wang Tianming on the throne in surprise.
"Don't worry. This is his habit. Before every shoot, he will prepare his emotions like this. When the shooting officially begins, his true strength will be displayed, "Zhao Chongxu said.
When the other young actors heard the veteran actors' words, they were even more excited about the upcoming battle between the two.
After Xiao Yunhai adjusted his emotions, he went to the door and nodded at Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen understood and shouted, "Episode 64, Scene 3, Action!"
Just as he finished speaking, Wang Tianming, who was sitting on the throne, suddenly opened his eyes. His entire temperament changed. Loneliness, fear, dominance, decadence, suspicion, and other extremely complex emotions intertwined in his body. His tyrannical acting skills left the actors behind the monitor speechless.
Zhao Chongxu's eyes were about to pop out. He muttered, "Old Wang, this guy, when he doesn't make a sound, he amazes everyone. Six years of hibernation not only didn't his acting skills deteriorate, but it also made him take a big leap forward. I'm afraid that only the God of Acting, Liang Hui, in Hua Xia's entertainment industry, can do what he did just now. "
Even though Xiao Yunhai, who was outside the arena, was quite a distance away, he had already keenly felt the pressure that Wang Tianming gave him when he exploded.
Too strong.
Since entering the entertainment industry, Xiao Yunhai had worked with many award-winning actors and actresses. However, the one who gave him the most pressure was Wang Tianming, who hadn't acted in six years.
Xiao Yunhai was a person who grew stronger when he met a strong opponent. With Wang Tianming's provocation, Xiao Yunhai's acting skills, which he had accumulated in his previous life, exploded.
On the surveillance screen, there was no sadness or joy on his face, but his eyes also revealed an extremely complicated emotion. Resentment, disappointment, pleasure, and pity were all perfectly displayed.
"It can't be, right? Director Xiao also has this kind of ability. "
The young actors behind the monitor all sucked in a breath of cold air.
Wang Tianming had been acting for a lifetime. It was completely acceptable for him to have such a miraculous performance.
But Xiao Yunhai had only acted in two or three movies at the very most, and he already had such means. It was really unbelievable.
At this moment, everyone was struck by Xiao Yunhai to the point that they could not take it anymore.
Zhang Guoyang, Chen Jie, Hu Wanzong, Qin Yunyi, and the others looked at each other. They were all shocked and speechless.
Although they didn't say anything about what Zhao Wanqing had said before, they were not convinced. However, just from the beginning, they knew that they were far inferior to the two of them.
Xiao Yunhai walked to the center of the hall with heavy steps. He bowed to Wang Tianming and said, "Xiao Yunhai greets Your Majesty."
After bowing, Xiao Yunhai raised his head and looked directly at Wang Tianming, who was sitting on the dragon throne, without fear.
Wang Tianming met his gaze and seriously sized him up. He said, "I remember the first time I summoned you. We asked you what you were doing in the capital. You said that you were chosen by Jing Xuan and Jing Huan at the same time. You had no choice but to come to the capital, right? "
Wang Tianming spoke very slowly, and there was a trace of powerlessness in his dignified tone. It gave people the feeling that he was mentally and physically exhausted, which complemented his current situation. The depth of his line knowledge made all the actors prostrate themselves in admiration.
Xiao Yunhai's face was still as calm as water. He said, "This is the truth."
Wang Tianming's face turned cold. His eyes were like sharp swords. He said angrily, "But it is not the whole truth."
This was only the first small conflict between the two, but the atmosphere on the set became tense with Wang Tianming's lines.
Everyone looked at Xiao Yunhai, waiting for his reaction.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "At that time, everything was in the hands of Your Majesty. How could I dare to tell the whole truth?"
His answer was simple and direct. He did not hide anything.
Wang Tianming's overbearing pressure was dissolved without a trace by Xiao Yunhai.
"Good, that's a good reaction."
When Wang Tianming heard Xiao Yunhai's words, his eyes became even colder. He said, "What about now? I am now in the Twilight Palace and cannot mobilize a single soldier. So you don't have to worry about anything anymore. "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is still Your Majesty. The people of the world still look forward to Your Majesty … being wise and just."
Xiao Yunhai slightly emphasized the words' wise and fair ', which could be considered as a counterattack to Wang Tianming.
"Wise and just?" Wang Tianming was so angry that he laughed. His eyes were still fixed on Xiao Yunhai. He asked, "Is it only wise and just if I overturn Chi Yan's case?"
Xiao Yunhai did not say anything, but his eyes gave Wang Tianming an affirmative answer.
Wang Tianming continued to ask, "Now that the Crown Prince controls the entire court, I can do nothing about it. Why can't you wait until I'm dead before overturning this case? "
Xiao Yunhai's eyes narrowed. He said firmly, "Because it's different."
Wang Tianming said, "What's different?
Xiao Yunhai's eyes shone with a frightening light. He said, "To Prince Qi, it's different."
The two's questions and answers were like two armies in battle. It gave people a tense and exciting feeling.
The air on the set seemed to freeze.
