Chapter 171: Acting with Xiaojie
The Little Princess of Yuquan: If you tell me to hold it in, I will. Don’t I have any dignity to lose?
Su Mo: Then you say...
Little Princess of the Fish Circle: Never mind. There doesn’t seem to be anything much to say. It just feels great.
Su Mo: ...
Su Mo: It’s nothing important. I’m going to eat.
Little Princess of Yuquan: By the way, there is a third party between Sister Liu and Li Mu.
Su Mo: What???
Su Mo was immediately attracted. Li Mu had just sent him a message, so how could he still have time to look for a mistress? His ability to control time was too strong.
Princess of the Fish Circle: I don’t know the details. Sister Liu said that when she was driving on the road, she met Li Mu’s car. She saw a woman in the car, so she called Li Mu and asked him what he was doing. As a result, this scumbag said he was in a meeting. So Sister Liu thought he must have cheated.
What a cliché plot! Su Mo suddenly wondered if she had helped the wrong person. Looking at the delicious dishes on the table, steamed prawns, celery fried tofu, pork ribs and kelp soup, she suddenly felt that they were not delicious anymore. She used to love these dishes the most.
The Little Princess of Yuquan: I originally thought that only Li Xian had problems, but now it seems that this problem is hereditary. No one in the Li family is a good person.
Su Mo: So what is Sister Liu going to do?
Princess of the Fish Circle: Sister Liu is very conflicted and unwilling to let go. It seems that she still likes Li Mu. Why is Sister Liu so miserable? She always meets scumbags.
Su Mo: Please comfort Sister Liu more, alas~
Su Mo: I’m going to eat first, as I still have to continue filming in the afternoon.
Princess of the Fish Circle: Okay, eat quickly. Do you like the crew's meal? Do you want me to arrange for the restaurant to deliver it to you?
Su Mo: It’s OK, no need to send me off.
Su Mo put down her phone, ate a few mouthfuls of white rice, drank a few sips of soup, and felt full. She put down her chopsticks and called the room service on the hotel landline, asking them to come and collect the dishes and clean the room in the afternoon. After finishing all this, Su Mo curled herself up in the quilt again, but this time she was not sleepy at all, just staring at the ceiling blankly.
Unconsciously, the alarm on her cell phone rang. Su Mo got up and went to the bathroom to wash her face with cold water. Under the stimulation of the cold tap water, Su Mo finally came back to her senses. She looked at herself in the mirror and silently encouraged herself: Come on, everything may let you down, but work will not.
After packing up, Su Mo got on the crew's car and went to the set. After saying hello to Zhang Zhang, Su Mo went into the lounge to put on makeup as usual. She saw Xiao Jie sitting alone on a stool, with frustration written all over his face.
"Xiao Jie, what's wrong?" Su Mo asked with concern.
Xiao Jie looked up and saw Su Mo, his eyes reddened, "Sister Su Mo, I may not be able to complete the task you assigned to me. This poem is so difficult to memorize. I always memorize the next sentence and forget the previous one. I am so stupid."
Su Mo touched Xiao Jie's head and said, "That's because it's your first time filming. I was like this when I first filmed a movie."
"Really?" A glimmer of hope flashed in Xiaojie's eyes.
"Yes." Su Mo nodded.
"Then Sister Su Mo, how did you overcome it?" Xiao Jie asked anxiously.
"First of all, don't feel too pressured. Just treat this as an ordinary text recitation and treat it normally. Give me the lyrics." Su Mo stretched out his hand.
Xiao Jie quickly handed the words in his hand to Su Mo. Su Mo found a pen and said, "Every sentence has its own key words. You need to find these key words first." Su Mo led Xiao Jie to analyze the words one by one and then marked the key words.
"Now that we have found the key words, you need to memorize the order before and after, and then slowly fill in other words. Some are to express emotions, and some are to modify. When you recite, you need to use some imagination, imagine that you are in this situation. Try it again."
Xiao Jie nodded, took the script handed over by Su Mo, walked to a corner of the lounge and sat down, reciting it again according to the method Su Mo taught.
"Miss Su, you're here." Sister Huang came in from outside and saw Xiaojie huddled in the corner. She felt a little distressed and a little guilty. "Miss Su, I'm sorry. Xiaojie hasn't memorized the words in the afternoon. I just went to find Director Zhang, but he said he couldn't postpone it any longer. Alas~"
"It's okay." Su Mo comforted, "I just talked to Xiaojie, I believe he can do it, let's put on makeup first."
"Okay, Miss Su, here are your clothes." Sister Huang handed the ironed clothes to Su Mo.
Su Mo took the clothes and said, "Thank you, Sister Huang. You don't have to be so polite. You can call me Su Mo or Momo. Miss Su, it sounds weird. We still have to spend a long time together."
"Eh~" Sister Huang didn't expect Su Mo to have such a good temper. She heaved a sigh of relief and prayed silently that Xiao Jie would be able to shoot smoothly.
After Su Mo changed her clothes and put on makeup, Wang Jie had already come to the lounge to pick her up.
"How about it, do you have confidence?" Su Mo asked Xiao Jie.
"Yeah." Xiao Jie nodded. The previous frustration was gone from his face, and he looked more childish.
Su Mo smiled and stretched out his hand, clapping hands with Xiao Jie, "Okay, let's go."
When they arrived at the set, Zhang Zhang first went over the lines with Xiao Jie, and after confirming that there were no problems, he shouted, "All departments, get ready, start filming."
"The first time a kid hits Su Mo, 3,2,1, action."
Su Mo looked distraughtly at the direction where her husband disappeared, walking aimlessly forward when suddenly a child bumped into her.
"Ah!" Su Mo followed the script and acted out the feeling of being hurt by a child.
"Sister Su Mo, what's wrong with you? Did I run too hard?" Xiao Jie looked at Su Mo nervously, thinking that he had just run too fast.
"Cut." Zhang Zhang shouted helplessly.
Su Mo stroked his forehead, looked at Xiao Jie who was concerned about him, and explained: "Xiao Jie, I was just acting. The plot requires me to act like I'm in pain. You have to be very harsh when you talk to me. This is a plot, not real."
Xiao Jie looked at Su Mo with a confused look.
"When acting, I am not Sister Su Mo, I am a stranger who doesn't know you. You are not Xiao Jie, you are Acheng who is spoiled by your family." Su Mo continued to guide.
"I'm Acheng, not Xiaojie," Xiaojie repeated.
"Yes, that's what I mean. So you have to show Ah Cheng's spoiled arrogance and arrogance, so that the plot can develop further." Su Mo waved at Zhang Zhang and shouted, "Director Zhang, how about I take Xiao Jie to act again and let him get the feeling."
Zhang Zhang nodded in agreement, "Okay, hurry up."
"Yeah." Su Mo took Xiao Jie to the side of the garden and started to rehearse the scene. Su Mo patiently told Xiao Jie: what was wrong with the performance and why it was wrong. Then he let Xiao Jie figure out how to act. After rehearsing five or six times, Xiao Jie finally got a feel for acting.
