Chapter 15
Chapter 15
Breakfast ended in eerie silence.
In fact, eating is usually very quiet. Xiang Liangjun and Xiao Wang knew that Wei Jin was not a talkative master. After Zhou You appeared, they understood that Wei Jin just didn't talk to them before.
Even Xiao Wang, who was as slow as Xiao Wang, realized that the atmosphere in the morning was not right, so he hurried away with the dishes after dinner.
Xiang Liangjun needed to calm down and went to the yard to light a cigarette.
Only Wei Jin and Zhou You were left on the table.
Wei Jin didn't know what was wrong with him, he had never felt this emotion for more than 20 years.
He wiped his mouth with a square towel, and it was almost time to go to the set.
As dedicated as he is, he will suppress all irrelevant emotions and earnestly complete today's shooting tasks.
"Mr. Wei," Zhou You saw that he was about to leave, quickly took out a sketchbook, and said cautiously, "Can you sign me again?"
Wei Jin paused, and finally took the sketchbook, "It's for your friend again?"
Zhou You: "Huh? No—"
Wei Jin opened the notebook, slipped out a piece of paper, and gently landed on his lap.
"I want it," Zhou You said shyly, "but I don't have your photos and surroundings, so..."
Watching Wei Jin pick up the drawing paper, Zhou You added in a low voice: "So I drew a piece of paper, please don't dislike it..."
Wei Jin stared at the painting intently. The paper was not big, but the picture was very detailed. The person in the painting had the same eyebrows and eyes as him, but it made him feel very strange.
With a gentle face immersed in the world of painting - even Wei Jin himself didn't know that he would show such an expression.
Was he like this in front of Zhou You?
Is this how Zhou You sees him?
Wei Jin looked at the painting without saying a word, which made Zhou You's heart hang.
Zhou You thought about it last night, he knew Wei Jin for a short time, unlike Feng Siming and Zhong Hao, who witnessed Wei Jin all the way from entering the film world to becoming the top actor, the past time node is more meaningful for fans who accompany Wei Jin special meaning.
For him, the most meaningful period is the period of painting with the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
Painting the Wei and Jin Dynasties is too easy for Zhou You. In the past two days, he has painted the most posters of Wan Shanhe. In order to draw Wan Shanhe well, Zhou You has carefully observed the Wei and Jin Dynasties. His appearance has completely entered Zhou You In your head, in your muscle memory.
With almost no effort, Zhou You drew the appearance of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
But thinking that in order to make Mr. Wei happy, he still carefully drew several pictures, and chose the one he thought was the most perfect.
"Mr. Wei?" Zhou You called out tentatively, Wei Jin came back to his senses, raised his hand, and gently touched the top of Zhou You's head and rubbed it.
The soft hair feels good, like traveling around...
"Can you give it to me?" Wei Jin suddenly thought.
Zhou You: "Huh?"
Wei Jin: "I like it very much... I will draw another copy for you."
Mr. Wei's painting!
Without even thinking about it, Zhou You agreed without hesitation: "Okay."
"..." Wei Jin immediately found that there was another emotion that he had never felt before.
But this time it felt good, and he didn't want to be depressed.
"Why haven't you come out yet? I'm about to leave." Xiang Liangjun waited outside for a few minutes but no one came out, so he went directly into the room to call for someone, "If you don't leave, you'll be late."
Wei Jin gently clipped the painting back into his notebook, turned his head and smiled at Zhou You: "Let's go."
Xiang Liangjun: "?"
Why did Wei Jin's mood turn from cloudy to sunny when he came back from smoking a cigarette?
Damn it, Wei Jin's previous personality was difficult enough to figure out, but now his agent is becoming more and more unable to see through how things get worse.
...Wait, it can't be puberty again, right?
……
Today we are filming the last episodes of Wan Shanhe doing good deeds in the village. There is nothing difficult about the plot, the key is that Wan Shanhe needs to show a human touch.
Wei Jin's acting skills are very good, there is no doubt about it.
But what he is best at playing is the kind of cold, detached and superior character, because this person already has such a face.
Sometimes the image fits the character more important than the acting skills.
Zheng Beilou has seen Wei Jin's works, and he can perform tenderness, but compared to his best performance, Zheng Beilou can only give him seven or eighty points for this kind of tenderness.
In fact, this is already a pretty good score, and it is also an existence that stands out from the crowd in the industry.
Just because Wei Jin's acting skills are relatively weak, Zheng Beilou still hopes that he can perform better.
It is estimated that a few more shots will be needed to achieve the best results. Zheng Beilou's arrangement for shooting today is not much.
After brewing a large cup of wolfberries, Zheng Beilou was ready for a day of fighting.
Then his fighting plan was ruthlessly shattered by Wei Jin's absolutely gentle performance.
Zheng Beilou: "???"
Hell, what happened to this Wei Jin today, like a blooming sunflower, shining everywhere.
Zheng Beilou asked the assistant director, "Have we hired a stuntman?"
The assistant director also doubted life: "No."
Besides, where can I find a stand-in actor who looks like this?
However, Wei Jin's performance is really good, perfectly showing Wan Shanhe's feeling of being immersed in happiness and not knowing the danger is approaching.
Several old actors in the same crew praised from the bottom of their hearts: "The pillar of the new generation."
"Wei Jin's acting skills have improved again."
"At this age... the younger generation is formidable."
As a group performer that needs to appear in this scene, Wei Jin, who Zhou You looks at with bright eyes, perfectly interprets the characters.
As expected of Mr. Wei!
"Master Wan." It was time for him to pass, Zhou You walked towards Wei Jin with a basket of fruits in his arms, smiling.
Zheng Beilou, who was staring at the camera monitor not far away, noticed that Wan Shanhe's expression softened again, and a childish young man came across from him.
With Zheng Beilou's sophisticated gaze, he immediately caught the harmonious atmosphere created by the two of them.
Actors also pay attention to compatibility. It is obvious that Wei Jin and Zhou You have a very good compatibility. An inexperienced Taoist and a mortal who admires half-immortals both have enough drama in their eyes, but neither of them competes with the other. They complement each other, achieving the effect that one plus one is far greater than two.
"Camera closer." Zheng Beilou stared at the screen, excitedly using the walkie-talkie to direct the change of the camera position.
The scene was well played!
Increasing happiness is like a snowball, more and more snow will only make the snowball crumbling, making people worry about when it will fall apart.
The short performance of Wei Jin and Zhou You pushed the happiness of the characters to the peak. Zheng Beilou watched this clip many times later, and felt that it was a pity that a second was missing. In the end, he did not cut it and put it all into the whole film.
At that time, Zheng Beilou really did not expect that his decision would keep the popularity of "Into the Nine Heavens" high for several years in the future. After a period of time, it will be dug out by fans and tasted again and again.
——Of course, the knife at the back will also turn out and cry repeatedly.
……
After living in the Wei Jin courtyard for a few days, the drawing of the movie poster was finally completed.
Zhou You's output is relatively high here, except for those who are not satisfied, he can finally produce five paintings.
There is only one painting in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, but there are only a few in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. This painting has been revised many times, and every detail has been scrutinized many times, making it perfect.
"Mr. Wei, just use this one."
"But I think the unified artistic conception of your portrait is better."
Later Zhou You designed three compositions himself, combining the characters with some scenery, using silhouettes and blank spaces, which has a subtle beauty, which Wei Jin likes very much.
They both felt that the other's painting was better, and after a long time of discussion, they couldn't find a result, so they could only look at each other with helpless smiles, and brought the painting to Zheng Beilou for him to choose.
Now the pressure is on Director Zheng's side.
Zheng Beilou: "?"
"Wait, so Xiao Zhou knows how to draw?... Hey! It's really beautiful." Zheng Beilou couldn't put it down after getting the painting, but Wei Jin and Zhou You's paintings had their own merits, and he wandered back and forth between the two paintings, choosing I can't bear to part with that.
Zheng Beilou, a terminal patient with difficulty in choosing, covered his heart: "How to choose! Can't you combine the advantages of the two together... an oil painting in the style of ink and wash!"
Zhou You: "..."
Wei Jin: "..."
"It's not impossible."
"It's true... I haven't considered such a painting method yet."
"Go back and try."
Zheng Beilou: "???"
"Wait a minute, I'm just saying-"
But Zhou You and Wei Jin were serious, and after a few days, they created an ink-and-wash oil painting for him.
Zheng Beilou's choice difficulty changed from 2 to 3 on the spot.
Zheng Beilou gave up on himself: "You guys just let me choose the whole Jiugongge."
Zhou You: "..."
Wei Jin: "..."
Zhou You rubbed his hands: "If you have this need...it's not impossible."
Zheng Beilou: "?"
Together with the paintings before the Wei and Jin Dynasties, they still have a lot of spare works in their hands, and they have all moved in and expanded to fill up the temporary office in the Zhengbei Building.
Zheng Beilou: "??????"
Zheng Beilou: Kill me.
The choice of task was given to Director Zheng, and Zhou You followed Wei Jin back to his small courtyard.
The past few days of traveling around painting with Wei Jin are very happy, but after the poster is finished, his live-in life is over.
There are not many things to travel around, only two pieces of clothes brought over halfway, folded and stuffed into the backpack, ready to say goodbye to Wei Jin and others.
Wei Jin stood by the courtyard dam, with a pomegranate tree in full bloom above his head. Seeing Zhou You coming out with a bag on his back, he opened his mouth, "Are you going back?"
Zhou You nodded, "Yes."
"If you want to stay...it's fine." Wei Jin asked him to wait a moment, stepped into the house, and brought out a small framed oil painting for Zhou You.
Zhou You took it and saw that Wei Jin actually drew a portrait of him.
On the canvas, he was seen from the perspective of Wei Jin, with a serious face sideways and brushing on the paper. Even the small mole on his neck was noticed by Wei Jin, and it was precisely placed on the painting.
Zhou You was flattered, "Mr. Wei, what is this?"
Wei Jin tapped the handwriting on the lower right corner of the canvas, "Signature...you said you wanted it before."
Travel around and see, it really is.
"Thank you, Mr. Wei!" Zhou You couldn't laugh or cry when he was overjoyed, "But why did you draw me?"
Wei Jin tilted his head in confusion: "Is it not possible?"
Zhou You was also a little dazed, "Isn't the usual signature on the photo of the person?"
But strictly speaking, this is not a signed photo at all...is it a signed painting?
Moreover, it was painted by Wei and Jin himself, and the degree of preciousness cannot be compared.
Zhou You smiled contentedly, "Thank you, Mr. Wei, I will keep it well."
