for Advance Chapter
It has been almost a week since we arrived in Dali, and the crew has officially moved into the Tianlongbabu Film and Television City. As the second male lead, Chen Hao's scenes were naturally filmed first, and the other actors' scenes were all centered around Chen Hao's scenes.
Chen Hao handled several consecutive scenes with ease. The first scene was where Duan Yu stopped the fight between the Wuliang Sword Sect and the Shenlong Gang. This scene became a one-man show by Chen Hao.
It's like watching him perform alone. Duan Yu's scholarly spirit is displayed vividly and exquisitely by him. He can handle all kinds of contradictory behaviors of hesitation and yet standing up for the justice in his heart with ease without giving people the slightest sense of incongruity.
Although the young and beautiful Guo Biting appeared with her and played the quirky Zhong Ling, she was still completely overshadowed by Chen Hao's brilliance.
Chen Hao has been a supporting actor for quite a while in his past and present lives, so he has no stage fright in front of the camera and can handle it with ease no matter how he finds his sense of camera.
All he had to do was to play himself in front of the camera. That's right, after the official shooting started, he had completely switched to Duan Yu mode. So, to interpret Duan Yu brilliantly might be difficult for others, but for Chen Hao it would not be difficult at all. Who would have difficulty playing himself?
After filming a few scenes, director Zhou Xiaowen praised Chen Hao highly. Even if Taiwan's Jimmy Lin were to star in the film, he probably wouldn't be able to achieve this effect.
It wasn't obvious when they were having dinner together, but as soon as he arrived on the set, Chen Hao immediately switched to Duan Yu. The Duan Yu he played was so good that you couldn't tell he was acting at all, and even the tour guide Zhou Xiaowen suspected that this was Duan Yu.
If such outstanding acting skills happened to a veteran actor, Zhou Xiaowen would not be too surprised even if he admired them. Just like excellent actors like Chen Daoming and Chen Baoguo, their acting does not make you feel as if you are in the situation and empathize with the characters. They are not playing roles, they are the characters in the play.
But a newcomer, a young actor who had only been playing supporting roles in Hengdian Film and Television City for half a year, was able to achieve the same effect. Director Zhou Xiaowen had to sigh and lament that this boy's future was limitless.
In addition to director Zhou Xiaowen's appreciation, all other crew members also showed great respect for Chen Hao.
Of course, the two young actresses in the crew also went from being unbelievable about Chen Hao's acting skills at first to sincerely admiring him now.
Originally, Jiang Xin thought that among the young actors, her performance would not be worse than Chen Hao's, but after seeing Chen Hao's performance, she found that her so-called acting skills were really too immature and there was no comparison with Chen Hao at all.
While Jiang Xin admired him, she also began to carefully observe how Chen Hao acted, but found that she could never learn it because the other party seemed to be completely immersed in it. He was Duan Yu and Duan Yu was him.
Especially when he returned to the crew and changed into ancient costume, with his white satin gown, long hair, and brocade stripes on the gown, he looked like a handsome young man. Not only that, Jiang Xin didn't know if it was her illusion, but she also saw a kind of royal aristocratic air in him.
If I didn't know that Chen Hao was playing Duan Yu, I would really think that he was from some royal family.
Jiang Xin felt the same way, and Guo Biting had the same feeling. She admired Chen Hao's superb acting skills, but also felt a little inferior. Compared with Chen Hao, her own acting was just like a baby learning to walk. Fortunately, Director Zhou did not have high requirements for the role of Zhong Ling, but even so, she had to NG more than once.
Guo Biting also knew that Chen Hao, like herself, did not come from a professional background and had been exploring his acting skills on his own. But why could he play the role so well while her own performance was just superficial?
She was wondering whether she should take the initiative to ask Chen Hao for advice on acting. Everyone was busy filming during the day, so why not ask him when she returned to the inn at night?
Today's filming mainly revolves around Chen Hao and Jiang Xin. Jiang Xin plays Mu Wanqing and Chen Hao plays Duan Yu, who have many scenes.
In Wanjie Valley, Duan Yu asks Zhong Ling's mother, Gan Baobao, to rescue her. This angers the valley master, Zhong Wanchou. Gan then asks Duan Yu to give Zhong Ling's birth date and time to his father, Duan Zhengchun, asking him to rescue her. He then directs Duan Yu to borrow a horse from Mu Wanqing. Upon hearing that someone is plotting to kill Mu Wanqing, Duan Yu returns to inform them, and they escape the enemy's pursuit. Duan Yu begs Mu Wanqing to rescue Zhong Ling, but is confronted by her. After Mu Wanqing kills two Vulture Saint Envoys, the two, wearing their attire, successfully rescue Zhong Ling. Meanwhile, the enemy arrives again, and Mu Wanqing keeps Duan Yu hostage while forcing Zhong Ling away. Mu Wanqing and Duan Yu flee to a cliff, where the Crocodile God of the South China Sea appears. He fights off the enemy for Mu Wanqing but demands to see her face. Mu Wanqing removes her veil and offers it to Duan Yu, declaring him her husband. The Crocodile God, about to accept Duan Yu as his disciple, suddenly retreats at the signal.
The scenes for the Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations were finished yesterday, and today's scenes mainly focus on Duan Yu and Mu Wanqing. Chen Hao was basically already familiar with the parts, but Jiang Xin was still reading the lines and seemed a little nervous.
