Ten years of film queen, finally became a top star

Chapter 333: Double Standard Old Actor

The actors that Ran Feng has been working with these days are all newcomers selected by Ning Ruifeng through auditions, and today's scene will see him working with well-known veteran actors.

The parts to be filmed today are: the emperor's temptation of the hostage, the hostage asking the emperor to forgive his servants, and the death penalty of the tyrant.

Feng Guodong, who plays the emperor, just arrived at the film and television city today. He has quite a lot of scenes, which are all concentrated in the film and television city and the studio.

This veteran actor has been playing the role of emperor since the last century and is still playing the role of emperor now. His acting range has become narrow to a certain extent.

However, having a narrow acting range has its advantages, and his performance as the emperor was so superb.

The highest level of acting is to become one with the character. This is what he is doing now. He treats himself like an emperor both on and off the stage.

Obviously he didn't provoke him, but Feng Guodong looked down on him as soon as he saw Ran Feng. He didn't even try to hide it, and it was obvious that he looked down on him.

When filming in the suburbs of Beijing, there were two veteran actors, Emperor Xiaowen and the old Qiang King, and the plot was about the two of them fighting.

If ancient armor is to be made realistic, it inevitably has to have some weight. The old Qiang King just obeyed the arrangements of the crew, but Emperor Xiaowen had to trouble the staff.

Normal actors would not take off their costumes during breaks in filming, but Emperor Xiaowen's armor had to be put on and taken off repeatedly between each scene.

The people from the costume team just gave him a few words of advice and he started swearing. Ning Ruifeng and this veteran actor have been drinking buddies for many years, and many things were difficult to say. It was only after Yu Jiang gave him a few words of advice that he finally restrained himself.

Compared with the previous heroines, this veteran actor’s shooting efficiency is considered very high, and the quality of the material is indeed good.

Ran Feng didn't know why, but the veteran actor seemed to hate him.

After filming in the suburbs of Beijing for such a long time, Ran Feng had become very familiar with the old Qiang King, who also had no rival scenes with him, but Feng Guodong still couldn't get rid of his prejudice against him.

Today, the two of them were acting against each other, and it was even more obvious during the rehearsal that he disliked Ran Feng.

Normally speaking, rehearsal is a very important step before actual shooting, but Feng Guodong didn't like Ran Feng very much, so he just asked his assistant to rehearse for him.

Although Ran Feng’s performance was not as perfect as in the actual shooting after normal rehearsal, he was able to find the best state in just two or three takes.

Anyway, they only acted together for four or five scenes in total, so it didn't matter whether their cooperation was good or not, and Ran Feng didn't rely on his likes to make a living.

But he was a little worried about Yu Jiang. Many of her scenes during the princess period were closely related to Emperor Xiaowen, and the two of them had a lot of rival scenes.

Ran Feng was afraid that the veteran actor would still have this attitude. With Yu Jiang's temper, he would definitely not tolerate his carelessness in acting.

Although it can be seen from his attitude in the suburbs of Beijing before that the veteran actor seems to be quite willing to accept Yu Jiang's suggestions, it still cannot be guaranteed that the atmosphere will be so good when they actually work together.

It wasn't until the "Dayu State Banquet" scene was filmed that Ran Feng realized that his worries were unnecessary.

The veteran actor was just targeting him. He was very nice when facing Yu Jiang.

Yu Jiang's dance had been practiced to perfection, and he could just start filming after confirming his movements in the main hall.

In fact, confirming the movement does not require much cooperation, but the veteran actor still sat in Emperor Xiaowen's seat throughout the whole process and cooperated with Yu Jiang to practice the movement.

This scene involves many actors, and almost all the actors in the group who are filming in the film and television city will be present.

We will only be shooting this scene all day today. Many characters make their first appearance here, so except for the main character Yu Jiang, the reactions of other supporting characters also need to be shot separately.

In order to capture the feeling of a night banquet, the entire outside of the palace was blocked by black cloth to block the natural light, and the only things inside the house were candlelight and lighting equipment.

The film and television city is already hot in this season, the set is crowded and poorly ventilated, and it is even hotter now.

Most of the actors had changed into their costumes, including Emperor Xiaowen, who was sweating profusely as he sat on the dragon throne in his dragon robe.

The old man was old, and Yu Jiang felt a little embarrassed. "Teacher Feng, why don't you go out and rest for a while, and come back when the rehearsal begins, or you will get hot and dehydrated."

Feng Guodong said sternly, "Is that possible? The movements must also be related to the characters, and I need to know your dance movements so that I can know how to act with my eyes later."

Yu Jiang smiled and said, "Let's see after we rehearse the scene. Are you not sure about our chemistry? Even if we just shoot directly, we can connect with each other with just an eye contact."

Feng Guodong also played the emperor in "No Flowers in the Dust". The two had a lot of rival scenes at that time and had a very pleasant collaboration.

Seeing that he was still hesitating, Yu Jiang directly called his assistant to pull him out, "Hurry up, Mr. Feng, if you stay any longer, it will be more troublesome if your makeup is taken off."

Ran Feng will have a long emotional scene in which his father changes his name in public, which requires preparation. He was already immersed in the role, but because of the situation on his girlfriend's side, he paid more attention to it.

After watching the whole thing, he turned sideways and whispered to the old Qiang King beside him: "Why didn't Teacher Feng have this attitude when he was rehearsing with me? Why do you annoy me so much!"

The old Qiang King covered his face with the script and said, "We have talked about you in private. I think Xiao Yu will affect the glory of Chinese film and television because of being in a relationship with you."

Ran Feng was completely speechless, but it didn't matter. After all, this was his last day of cooperation with Feng Guodong. As long as he didn't have any objections to Yu Jiang, it would be fine.

Yu Jiang's makeup is done, but he hasn't changed into his costume yet due to the temperature.

Apart from the two scenes with Ran Feng, she didn't do much filming these days, just waiting for this set of costumes.

In the state banquet scene, Princess Yangping wore a specially customized set of armor. She only wore it once in the whole play, but it was also very important.

Before the state banquet, although Princess Yangping was in control of all the matters in the palace and had frequent contacts with court officials, she still appeared to be naive in front of most people.

With her current status, she has done everything she can. Now Shen Guiwu must let more people see her value and courage before her coming-of-age ceremony.

Therefore, the armor she wore on the battlefield was most suitable for this occasion.

The main shots taken in the morning were the mutual probing between Emperor Xiaowen and his old rival, the King of Qiang, before the state banquet, as well as the reactions of other supporting characters.

In this series of scenes, Ran Feng's role is just a background board, except for the scene where the old Qiang King shows weakness by changing his son's name and sending him as a hostage.

There was the brewing of emotions when he was acting as the background board, and he was completely immersed in the emotional scene, and the shooting effect was perfect.

In the afternoon, there will be a scene where Princess Yangping will perform a dance during the palace banquet. The dance part requires filming many subtle reactions of the crowd, so we probably won’t finish work too early today.

Yu Jiang’s main actors are the old Qiang King and the male lead, the young general Wei Zhongling.

The male lead hands over the sword and points it at the Qiang King. This is the main part that was rehearsed during the play.
