The director frowned and put down the phone.
I called my assistant and was about to give instructions to cancel the filming of the next scene temporarily.
Although the little prince who needs to appear in the next scene is not a major role, he needs to play with the protagonist and a supporting role. It is really difficult to play without anyone.
Now that the young actors can’t come, we can only cancel it first.
He was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of a small pink figure from the corner of his eye, and his heart suddenly moved.
I stood up without thinking.
The assistant who was called over: "Director..."
“It’s none of your business.” He stood up and walked in one direction.
assistant:"…"
Jiang Lingxi was squinting to let Xiao Xiao touch up her makeup. She just glanced in the direction of Shen Yunqing and the fat girl, and saw the director who was sitting in front of the monitor just now, squatting in front of her fat girl.
Even from this distance, she could still hear the director's deliberately gentle and kind voice: "Kid, what's your name?"
Shen Qiangqiang first carefully looked at the person in front of him and recognized that this was the old man who was sitting in the corner and commanding everyone to do this and that. He raised his chin and spoke clearly and forcefully, "Shen Qiangqiang!"
“Shen Qiangqiang, okay, what a good name!” The director smiled like a chrysanthemum. Regardless of other things, at least his voice was really lively.
Not to mention that this child’s appearance is indeed a combination of both parents. He is not only exquisite, but also has a bit of heroism combined with his temperament.
Except for the fact that the head is a bit smaller, the overall feeling is even better than the young actor he had booked before but couldn't come.
The more I look at it, the more satisfied I become!
“Qiang Qiang, do you want to go filming a movie, just like your mother?”
As soon as he finished asking this question, he saw the eyes of the little guy in front of him suddenly light up, "Is there a big sword too?"
Director: “…Yes.”
Although the original prop set for the role of the little prince was a more elegant fan, small details like this are not impossible to change.
“Then I’ll shoot it!”
“Okay, okay.”
With a sword, a little actor with an even better appearance was brought in. The director stood up happily and met the eyes of the little guy’s parents.
Suddenly I felt short of breath again, "Then what..."
“The scheduled young actor can’t come?”
“Yeah,” the director gave a wry smile, “You just called me. I was about to cancel the filming, but I happened to see this kid of yours, who seemed very interested in filming.”
Hearing what he said, Jiang Lingxi silently corrected herself: She should be more interested in her prop sword!
The director kept up his efforts and said, "Although the kid Shen Qiangqiang is a little short, he only needs to change his costume. Moreover, this character basically sits down and has few lines. The kid Shen Qiangqiang also speaks very clearly. I You don’t even need dubbing anymore.”
Jiang Lingxi lowered her head and looked at the fat girl whose eyebrows were a little proud after being praised, "Really want to act?"
Shen Qiangqiang nodded vigorously, and the word "think" was particularly powerful.
“That’s okay, let’s try it.”
She and Shen Yunqing realized early on that their daughter had been a mastermind since she was a child.
As long as what they want to do is reasonable and will not hinder others, they will not interfere as parents, and will even express support when necessary. This is their tacit understanding.
Life is only a hundred years old, so it’s okay to be as wanton as possible.
Now it’s just a taste of filming, which seems to her to be nothing.
Taking advantage of the need to adjust the scene for the last scene, the couple first accompanied the fat girl to do makeup and change into costumes. Jiang Lingxi also acted as her daughter's acting teacher, teaching her how to act later, and at the same time, she also had to put on the performance. Memorize a few lines.
Jiang Lingxi is still very confident in her daughter's IQ and comprehension ability. Before the last scene was about to be filmed, the mother and daughter even had time to simply walk around in the dressing room while filming.
The director does not have much confidence in Shen Qiangqiang's acting skills. Although the daughter may have inherited her mother's acting talent, he has not forgotten Shen Qiangqiang's true age.
He is about to be three years old, and some children at this age are still drinking milk!
The little actor I booked before is six years old.
The little prince who will be played this time is five years old. It is a challenge for a three-year-old child to play a five-year-old role.
But when he saw the figure wearing a smaller prince's uniform and holding a delicate sword in his hand appeared in the camera, his beautiful red phoenix eyes glanced lightly in the direction of the camera, the director sat behind the monitor and could not help but His eyes widened.
“Camera No. 3, move forward, let’s get a close-up of the face!”
The actors who are in charge of playing opposite the little prince are already prepared to fail many times.
It is not easy for actors who are too young to play with each other, not to mention that the person they have to play with this time is a young man brought in by the director temporarily, and he has no experience in filming before.
However, Shen Qiangqiang's performance exceeded all of their expectations.
The little girl doesn’t even know what nervousness is!
The prince's noble temperament, his domineering little eyes and expressions, and his lines without any stumbling, were all captured.
But that’s not what surprised everyone the most. What surprised them most was that this little guy actually added drama to himself!
The actor suddenly heard a line that was not in the script and was unable to react for a moment. He almost ended up NGing for his own fault.
The director's mouth was grinning up to his ears unconsciously, and he had no intention of shouting "stuck" when looking at the picture on the monitor.
The actors on the set naturally had to cooperate with Shen Qiangqiang's improvisation and continue acting.
When they finally heard a somewhat unsatisfied "stuck", all the actors present except Jiang Lingxi couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from their foreheads and noses.
Who would dare to believe it? They were actually forced out of their filming potential by a three-year-old girl!
Jiang Lingxi put her posture aside, walked over, reached out and pinched the chubby face of the fat girl who was still immersed in the role, and said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "Are you addicted to acting?"
“Am I great?”
Jiang Lingxi commented seriously: "Great!"
Not only was it great, she didn’t expect that Shen Qiangqiang would perform so well in his first acting role.
As expected of her, Jiang Lingxi’s daughter!
Looking at the scene of mother and daughter looking at each other and smiling, people around them who are already married and have children said: "..."
Stop talking, just two words, envy!
The director announced the end of work, and the mother and daughter went to remove their makeup hand in hand.
Other actors followed closely behind the mother and daughter.
“Teacher Jiang, I just heard the director call your daughter Shen Qiangqiang. Is it the sonorous and powerful Qiang?”
"right."
"How did you come up with this name? I'm not saying this name is bad, I just think it's quite rare and the rate of duplicate names is low. You and Mr. Shen are really good at naming."
“She cried so loudly and powerfully when she was born.”
It was so noisy that she couldn't sleep!
Everyone around with their ears pricked up: “…” (End of this chapter)
