Chapter 334 You are hopeless
The next scene is when two bridesmaids came to the stage to speak. In order to show that they have a better relationship with the bride, the two bridesmaids became jealous, fought with each other, and said some very, very embarrassing words, which almost made the engagement ceremony obscene.
Link is the groom and has no lines in this scene.
Every time the two bridesmaids finish speaking, the camera turns to the bride Lillian and him. He needs to react in some way. At first he smiles and applauds, and later he also makes some exaggerated and funny expressions.
While performing this kind of play, Link discovered that playing comedy is not an easy task.
When acting in a literary film, the main thing is to understand the character, use micro-expressions and eyes to express the character's emotions, and make the performance natural, delicate and contagious.
Comedy films are more exaggerated and require some exaggerated expressions and movements during performance to make the characters interesting and make the audience laugh.
Of these two performance methods, it is impossible to say which one is more difficult and which one is easier. Link believes that extroverted and lively people are more suitable for comedy, while serious and introverted people are more suitable for literary performances.
Comparatively speaking, Link feels that he is more suitable for literary and artistic movies. He would be embarrassed to perform some actions in comedy movies.
Before performing, he needed to repeatedly convince himself that he was just acting before he could barely perform, so the effect of his performance was not as good as that of actors like Emma Stone who are good at comedy.
Today’s ‘engagement scene’ is one of the climaxes of the whole movie and it is also a very important scene.
“Scumbag! He only bullies girls.”
“Apart from mom and dad?”
“Annie, am I good to you?”
The crew filmed for two days on the Burbank County set, and Link also worked as a backdrop on the set for a day and a half.
“You teach Annie something randomly one day, and I’ll beat you up if you teach anything wrong again.”
“Link Selina!”
Little Annie was eating grapes and blinking with bright eyes. Suddenly she saw a familiar person walking into the living room. She immediately jumped off the sofa and ran over.
"Annie, we just agreed that we didn't like him, why did he let you hug you again? Come down quickly."
“Link, you are back.”
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, after filming the scene, Link got in the car and followed Catherine back to her newly bought apartment in the metropolitan area, where little Annie had also been picked up not long ago.
Selena was so angry that she wanted to hit him with her fists, but Link only needed to press her forehead and easily neutralize all her attacks.
Link laughed, squatted down and picked up Annie.
In the living room, Selina peeled the grape skins, ate one herself, and then stuffed one into little Annie's mouth.
The little girl is just four years old. She has an apple head and bangs. Her face is pink and tender. She is very cute and well-behaved.
Link raised his hand and rubbed Selena's hair, twisting her newly permed hair into an afro.
“Then who is your favorite person?”
“Silly Mommy!”
Selena held her waist and said dissatisfiedly.
"Wait, why is my name after Link? No, you have to say Selena first and then Link. We are good sisters, understand? Link is a nasty guy, and we don't like him."
"good!"
Selena arranged her bangs with her hands, her round face puffed up.
“Nonsense! I didn’t get my gold belt by beating a girl.”
Link smiled softly, sat down on the sofa with Annie in his arms, and glanced at Selena, "The braid you used to have was pretty good-looking, why did you get a perm?"
“I am eighteen years old and an adult. It’s too childish to have braids.”
Selena rolled her eyes at him, sat on the sofa, and pulled Annie towards her.
Link saw her cute baby face, paired with a more mature perm, and lipstick, like a little girl who stole her mother's cosmetics.
“How are you practicing the new song?”
"Great! Wedon'ttalkanymore, wedon'ttalkanymore, is it good? When will we release the single?"
Selena sang a few words and asked proudly.
“It’s not bad. I haven’t had time to record songs recently. Let’s do it in August. I can also help you promote the new album.”
Link picked up a bunch of grapes, lay on the sofa, and watched the cartoon "The Simpsons" with Annie.
Selena shrugged her shoulders, lay down next to him, and poked his shoulder.
"The media says that you have more than 20 girlfriends and you are the number one scumbag in the entertainment industry. How does it feel to be treated as a scumbag?" "It doesn't matter, a little bad reputation won't affect me much."
Link said nonchalantly.
Selena hummed softly: "I've advised you a long time ago. If you have a girlfriend like Taylor, don't mess around outside. What now? I think you should find a way to get Taylor back. Taylor is the best for you."
Taylor?
Link shook his head. After dating Emma Watson, Marion Cotillard, and Daddario, he became more and more confused about Taylor. He was so good to her, but he just cheated on her once. How could she bear it? Break up with yourself?
After much deliberation, combined with Taylor's previous experience, he thought that the reason was that Taylor was too ambitious and had an indifferent attitude towards relationships. She was a ruthless woman and a real wild horse.
Even if he could get her back, he was not sure he could fully possess her.
In this case, it is better to learn from her and be more free and easy with feelings.
"Do you want me to help you? I saw Taylor yesterday, and I scolded you in front of her."
Selena smiled proudly.
“She’s back from Nashville?”
“Yes, her new album will be released next month and she will come back to promote it. Do you want to meet her? I can help you make an appointment with her.”
Selena said.
Link thought for a moment and decided to forget it.
Before they broke up, the two had a deep relationship, but Taylor also decisively left.
Three months after the breakup, with Taylor's free and easy personality, there is probably no trace of her past relationship left, so there is no point in seeing her again at this time.
Besides, he has now become the biggest scumbag in the industry, and Taylor may not necessarily like him.
“Demi Lovato, Vanessa Hudgens, and Miley, they are also your friends, how about you introduce them to me?”
“Introduced to you? You scumbag, you are hopeless.”
Selena kicked her, hugged Annie and left, saying she wanted to stay away from this scumbag like him.
"time to eat!"
Catherine shouted from the dining room.
After lunch, Link took Annie and Selina to Disneyland.
Annie is young and mainly plays some children's projects, such as merry-go-round, dwarf roller coaster, bumper cars, etc.
At first, Selena said that playing with these things was boring, but after arriving at the amusement park, she hugged the children's toys and never let go. She had more fun than Annie, and she didn't look like an eighteen-year-old beautiful girl at all.
Link’s main task is to protect their safety, take photos and carry their bags.
While at the Xuan Merry-go-round project, I also met Jessica Alba, who was playing with her "囧 Girl" Ona here. However, she was a little busy, so she made a phone call and left the "囧 Girl" to the maid to take care of.
Sister Ji is eight months younger than Annie. She is also very cute in a small floral skirt. Together with Selena, who has a round face, they make three cuties.
Link took many photos of them.
At about seven o'clock in the evening, he drove them home and then drove back to the Santa Monica Bay Villa.
In summer, the trees in the villa have thicker and greener leaves, and the lawn that hasn't been mowed for more than a month is also overgrown with weeds.
Link stood on the driveway in front of the door, looking at the silent and empty building. Although the lights in the house were bright, it still gave people a deserted feeling. He found that this place seemed uninhabitable.
Thinking of Selena's words during the day, he sent a message to Taylor, asking her how her new album was and whether she had the confidence to beat "The Woman I Love".
After a while, Taylor didn't respond. Link put down his phone, did ten sets of sit-ups in the gym, took a shower and went to sleep. When he woke up the next day, he received a message on his phone.
"certainly!"
Link shook his head, this woman was still so confident.
However, considering that most of the songs in her new album call herself a scumbag, and coupled with the current negative news, Link feels that the coming days will not be easy, and she will probably take the position of the number one scumbag this year.
“Remember our bet, that time in the studio in January?”
Link sent the message, but after a few minutes there was no reply. He put on his sneakers and went out for a morning jog.
