"Even if it is the same river, it will become two completely different rivers in different time and space. Acting is the same. The same character, the effect of two performances will never be exactly the same, including the mood at that time. "

"More importantly, this character is too successful," Xie Yifeng's eyes were slightly empty, as if he was trapped in an imaginary. "When playing, he will definitely be under more pressure than other characters. I can't help it... Can’t help but want to reproduce successfully. So the paradox appears, because I am not Xie Yifeng three years ago, so I can’t completely reproduce, and at the same time I will limit myself to this framework.”

"So that's why actors generally no longer pick up typical characters of the same type."

Xie Yifeng is Xie Yifeng.

Every word he said almost pierced Zhou Yuhe's heart.

I haven't had such experience before, and I thought it would be more handy to play a role that I played before.

But in fact it is not.

His enthusiasm for Rong Qian and the script of "Martial Arts" has been burned out in his last life. This time I cooperated with Mike Lee, there is always a feeling of lack of interest on the way to filming, as if he has passed countless customs. Throughout the computer games, you know exactly what BOSS will appear in the next level, and how to defeat it, so when you face this BOSS, you will not be as excited and expectant as the first time.

No enthusiasm.

Acting is restricted to the original framework.

No matter how you want to show it perfectly, it is to add some technical things, and acting cannot rely entirely on skills and experience, otherwise the characters will be rigid, not vivid, and not fresh.

Become very... mediocre.

"What should I do then?" Zhou Yuhe panicked.

Xie Yifeng thought that Zhou Yuhe had taken the protagonist of a TV series some time ago, which happened to be the image of this kind of scholar, and thought he was saying that he could not break through this framework, and he happened to be quite experienced in this area.

Before "Xuantong Emperor", Xie Yifeng played soy sauce for ten years and took over hundreds of roles, among which there are many similar roles, but he can find bright spots in the roles every time, so Zhou Yuhe and the troubled question, If it is other actors in the show business circle, it may not be able to empathize, but Xie Yifeng can understand his feelings.

"My suggestion is to go back to the basics," Xie Yifeng nodded the script in his hand, "starting from the script, rebuild the character construction."

"Because they are similar characters, when we receive this character, we will unconsciously use inertial thinking to interpret the acting. This is actually a lazy approach. Now if you analyze the script carefully, you will find that you have not found it before. Even if it is me, reading the script of "Xuantong Emperor" again now, it must be different from what I thought three years ago."

"Look at it with your current eyes and treat it as a brand new character. Don’t be affected by your previous impressions. It doesn’t matter if you play it in a completely different way, because Xie Yifeng three years later and Xie Yifeng three years ago are not the same person. Pu Yi three years later and Pu Yi three years ago are not the same person. Acting skills that are not restricted by experience are truly good acting skills."

Acting skills that are not limited by experience are truly good acting skills...

Zhou Yuhe is like a divine enlightenment. Yeah, Zhou Yuhe is no longer the Zhou Yuhe of more than 20 years ago. In the same way, how can it be possible to perform Rong Qian more than 20 years ago?

After breaking and then standing, only by breaking the previous things can you create a brand-new Rong Qian who belongs to Rong Qian twenty years later!

*******

After returning that night, Zhou Yuhe did not sleep for eight hours as Mike Li told him. Instead, he set up a night battle and read the script carefully from beginning to end, without letting go of every word.

Sure enough, a big problem was discovered.

Why is Zhou Yuhe unable to perform Rong Qian more than 20 years ago? Because the character of Rong Qian is very unreasonable!

First of all, "Swordsman" adopts a narrative style that echoes from small to large. One of the protagonists, Lin Hansha, has the highest value of force in the world of the script, and is loved by everyone in the world. It is the "big" in the script.

So naturally, "little" refers to the ordinary scholar Zhou Yuhe who is completely incompatible with the word "wuxia".

From the point of view of focus, these two roles are equally indistinguishable.

But at the character level, the gap between the two comes out.

As the leader of the martial arts, Lin Hansa's heroic spirit is based on killing, based on the use of violence to control violence. After this incident, the character of Lin Hansa has grown and truly shouldered what a martial arts leader should deserve. Responsibility.

But what is particularly strange about Rong Qian is that he is a young scholar who has never seen anything in the world. He has a "chivalrous" spirit from the beginning of the movie. He always stands up when the people around him need help most, and always keeps People can't see the changes, they seem very thin.

Furthermore, in relation to his growth background, this kind of innate "awe-inspiring righteousness" is a bit false and empty, as if it is to highlight the theme of "chivalry is not only in the human heart". One of the labels is so false that it doesn’t look like a real, lively person.

They did not find this problem in the previous life. One is that although Zhou Yuhe’s acting skills at that time were immature, but with a kind of spirituality and vividness unique to young people, it gave Rong Qian enough vitality; the other was that commercial films paid more attention to the plot and rhythm of the story. In terms of characters and connotations, I will not go into this.

Now that the shortcomings of Rong Qian's role were summarized, it was much easier to handle.

Zhou Yuhe took out the draft and re-established a new persona on it.

First of all, he increased the level of Rong Qian's character, and changed the awe-inspiring Confucianism into a little clever, utilitarian, and sour Confucian.

Secondly, he was deprived of his "chivalrous" nature. At first, he was willing to take over the identity of the leader of the martial arts, not because he wanted to be a chivalrous man and help others, but for his own benefit. It was in the latter half of the plot that he, sitting in the seat of the leader of the martial arts, understood what responsibility is and what a hero is.

——In this way, the character's growth space is much larger.

When Zhou Yuhe finished this, the sky was already dark. He rushed to sleep for a few hours, and then took his work to the set.

Zhou Yuhe found Mike Lee in the busy crowd and greeted him immediately.

"Director, I have made some understandings and changes to the human settings here, do you have time to take a look?"

Mike Lee’s face was exhausted. In the scene last night, Zhou Yuhe had been NG, so that the work he had to deal with after he went out of the shed was delayed until two or three in the morning. There was a fire on him, but he saw the book. The eloquent remarks and explanations, at first glance, cost a lot of effort.

Mike Lee reluctantly took the book, flipped it around at random, and said perfunctorily: "Okay, when you are filming this scene today, please try this."

After speaking, he handed the book back.

Zhou Yuhe looked at him nonchalantly, and didn't say much, walked aside and waited quietly for him to play.

There is only so much today, and I will not be updated tomorrow if I ask for leave. I was in the interview these two days, and I was tired after running a lot of places. Maybe I don’t care about the updates.
