Novel Full Chapter 604: Shocked Everyone On Set
“Even if he knows how to direct the script, does Han Yi know how to act?”
“Tsk tsk, just wait and see. He’s probably going to embarrass himself so badly.”
“I actually suspect if he really has any capabilities. Otherwise, why would he come forward?”
“Probably because he’s a fan and feels sorry for his idol. Or, maybe he just wants to be in the limelight.”
“I feel sorry for Han Yi. Not knowing how to act is one thing, but she even has this kind of boss. She’s already been driven up into a corner, so if she still doesn’t act well, she’s going to embarrass herself miserably.”
Forget the members of the film crew, even Tan Mei and the rest were extremely nervous.
‘I’ve been interacting with Su Yang for almost half a year now. Yet, I’ve never heard anything about Mr. Su knowing how to act or direct scripts.
‘Furthermore, Han Yi has NG’ed this particular scene so many times, so it’s obvious that she isn’t used to acting in movies. How could she possibly adjust herself so quickly?’
‘Initially, it was because Han Yi didn’t act well, so she apologized and the matter was almost put behind everyone’s mind. However, when Su Yang came up and criticized the director, the atmosphere became tense.
‘If this isn’t resolved perfectly, forget whether this cameo appearance will be successful or not, Han Yi’s reputation within the industry is going to deteriorate a lot.’
So, for a moment, they were extremely worried and resentful. ‘Why did Mr. Su make such a huge fuss?’
At that moment, Su Yang did not know what the people at the scene were thinking. He pulled Han Yi into a room and started to direct the script.
Although Su Yang’s acting skills might not be as good as Han Yi’s, his acting ability was more focused on acting in movies. Therefore, he knew more about acting in movies than Han Yi.
Therefore, he started to guide Han Yi’s performance carefully. “Xiaoyi, your performance earlier was too dramatic. Movies and television dramas are different, you can’t exaggerate it. Instead, you have to be sincere, meticulous and show the emotions and state of the character through microexpression.”
Then, Su Yang told Han Yi about his experience in acting in movies. He emphasized the difference between acting in movies and acting in dramas.
After that, Su Yang took the opportunity while Han Yi was deep in thought to secretly get Little Deeny to open the [Emotional Storage Card] to take out an [Anger] coin. Then, he took it out from his pocket and gently patted it on Han Yi’s body.
[Emotional Coin has been successfully used. Emotion has been injected. Time Limit: 10 minutes.’
Han Yi was still pondering when Su Yang patted her. She snapped out of her daze and blinked. “What’s wrong?”
Su Yang activated his [Verbal Cannon] ability and continued to help her adjust her mood. “I just wanted to remind you not to think too much about it right now. You’ve been thinking too much just now, that’s why you couldn’t let go. You have to follow your heart and act accordingly. Let your emotions drive your acting skills.”
“Let me tell you a good idea. You’re currently acting as an angry female employee, so you have to be angry! But because you’re still hoping for a miracle to happen, hoping that the company might keep you. Thus, you have to suppress your anger and negotiate with the company.”
“You might not be able to grasp the scale of this, so I’ll give you an example.”
Su Yang lowered his head and looked into Han Yi’s eyes. “Think about me. I’m your fan, but I’ve become your boss. Not only that, I didn’t tell you and kept you in the dark. Are you angry at me about that?”
Initially, Han Yi wanted to say that she was not angry, but she was conflicted and found it weird.
However, for some reason, she suddenly felt a surge of anger. It made her feel that Su Yang had gone overboard and that she was really angry.
Just as her eyes widened and she was about to explode, Su Yang suddenly placed his hand on her shoulder and said, “Very good, you’re in the right mood! But remember! I’m your boss! Your contract for the next two years is in my hands. Unless you don’t want to work in the entertainment industry anymore, you can’t lose your temper at me!”
Su Yang’s words were as if a bucket of cold water had just been splashed on Han Yi’s head.
Han Yi gritted her teeth and glared at Su Yang. ‘Su Yang’s right, I can’t get angry!
‘But… I’m really angry!’
At that moment, in Su Yang’s eyes, Han Yi was fuming with anger. She bit her lips and suppressed the anger in her heart, but she did not dare to say anything.
‘Wonderful! This totally matches her role in the drama!’
So, Su Yang said directly, “Keep it up! That’s it! Let’s go! Time to perform!”
Su Yang dragged Han Yi back to the set.
The moment the two of them returned, the noisy crowd quieted down.
After all, one of them was a quasi A-list celebrity, while the other was a producer and a boss. Ordinary crew members could not afford to offend them, so they could only discuss in private.
As for the bearded director, his status was much higher. Thus, he glanced at the two of them. “Are you done directing the script?”
Su Yang did not reply. Han Yi glared at him and nodded. “Yes!”
Han Yi felt that she was angry with anyone she looked at now…
“Eh?” The bearded director was shocked. He was considered an old director, so he had his own understanding of acting. With just one look, he could tell that Han Yi’s condition was different.
‘Previously, Han Yi was apathetic. Even when she acted, it was only on the surface. Now, she is obviously angry and it’s a genuine emotion.
‘How is this possible?
‘Isn’t this too big of a change?’
The bearded director could not help but glance at Su Yang. ‘This young man actually managed to stir up Han Yi’s emotions in just a few minutes?’
The bearded director found it hard to believe that this young man had such a foundation in acting.
Although he was surprised, he was not worried that he would fail. After all, no matter how well she prepared her emotions, it did not mean that she could act well. Han Yi’s acting skills had already proved that her acting skills were too exaggerated and was not suitable to act in a movie for the time being. She needed to learn more and that was something that Su Yang could not change.
Therefore, the bearded director only sized Han Yi up before waving his hand and arranging, “Let’s do it again.”
The moment the director spoke, the production team immediately started working.
Although most of the people still doubted whether Han Yi could act, the director of the set was the person with the most authority after all, so they mumbled to themselves as they continued filming.
“Attention all departments! Actors, please take your positions. Cameras, lights, audio!”
“”Beautiful Working Class” 57th scene, take 21, action!”
As the filming commenced, Han Yi’s mind went blank and she was completely immersed in her character.
It was different from what the bearded director had thought. Actually, Han Yi was very talented and she also had acting skills. However, It was purely because she did not understand the difference between a movie and a television drama, coupled with the fact that it was only because she did not find her feelings which caused her acting skills to seem shallow.
When Su Yang poured his emotions into her and explained the difference between the two acting methods, Han Yi’s acting skills were immediately put to use.
Her eyes were on fire, but she tried her best to keep a straight face. Gritting her teeth, she said, “I’ve been working in the company for seven years! Why are you firing me now?”
“Do you guys even have a conscience?! Does this company still have any humanity?!”
While she acted, she portrayed a female employee who had worked hard for the company for many years, but was being fired mercilessly. The anger that she had been suppressing was fully displayed.
All the crew members present were experienced in filming and they had seen plenty of actors. Hence, it was easy for them to tell whether a person’s acting was good or not.
Therefore, when they saw her, they started to panic. ‘What the f*ck! Is this really happening? Is this Han Yi?
‘We’ve all seen Han Yi’s acting skills just now, even the 20 consecutive NGs is the best proof.
‘In the end, Su Yang only took her out for five minutes. Yet, when she returned, she’s a completely different person. Her feelings, her actions, her expression and the way she revealed her true feelings were simply amazing!
‘It would be an exaggeration to say that she’s worthy of an Oscar, but it definitely wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that her acting skills are superb.
‘What’s going on?’
Of course, in the midst of their shock, they could not help but wonder, “Is it possible that because she’s repeated this line too much, her acting suddenly exploded? Is it possible that she won’t be as outstanding during the next scene?”
However, right after that, Han Yi used her outstanding acting skills to prove that she was not a flashbang with a single flash of inspiration. Instead, she has actually “learned” how to act in movies!
“Now that they’ve treated me like this, do all of you think you won’t receive the same as well?”
“Whatever I am now, is going to be the future you!”
“All of you will suffer from retribution!”
Her emotions slowly increased and her anger went from being suppressed to being released. Han Yi’s performance had practically revived the character in the movie!
When the entire scene was done, she did not even make a single mistake in her script. She was full of emotions and her expression was rich but not exaggerated, only true emotions were revealed. Instantly, everyone on set became silent.
The bearded director was stunned. ‘I really didn’t expect Han Yi to change so completely. She was so outstanding and stunning.’ So, when the scene ended, he stared blankly at the filming location and forgot to say “Cut”.
In the end, it was the assistant director who reminded him. He snapped back to reality and quickly said, “Cut, cut!”
When he finished, the crew exploded!
Whether it was the frontline staff who were fiddling with the equipment or the rest of the film crew who were watching from the sidelines, all of them were discussing fervently.
“D*mn! Is she really Han Yi? Has she been swapped for someone else? That was completely different from how she performed just now!”
“That’s right! That’s too fake. How could her acting have improved so much within just a few minutes?”
“Is that boss really so awesome? Isn’t he just a fan? He actually even knows how to direct a script?”
“He’s a producer, so he’s originally already part of the industry, so it’s normal for him to know how to act.”
The person who said that received a bunch of eye rolls. ‘Is it normal for a producer to know how to direct scripts? Nonsense! In that case, what’s the point of having a director? Go out and find 50 producers within the industry, if two of them are able to direct scripts, we’ll consider it our loss.’
With just a single scene, Han Yi and Su Yang instantly changed their reputation amongst the production team.
The entertainment industry was very realistic, basing purely off fame and reputation.
Because Han Yi only exploded her acting skills in one scene, everyone was still skeptical. However, they had already witnessed Su Yang’s skills.
‘To be able to guide a piece of “rotten wood” to this extent is simply godlike!’
Han Yi, who had just come down from the set, slowly recovered from the “anger” from the [Emotional Coin]. For a moment, she was at a loss. She thought back to how she had acted earlier and she could not believe it!
‘Did I perform that just now?’
