Accidental Mark - Chap 35
Chap 35
】
When Cheng Xia came out of the lounge, the assistant Rong sister hurriedly put the down jacket on him, seeing that Cheng Xia was holding a pair of white hand warmers, obviously not what she had prepared before, and Rong sister couldn’t help but wonder: “Cheng Xia, Where did you come from?”
“…” Cheng Xia was embarrassed to say that it was delivered by President Pei, so she made up an excuse: “I bought something online a few days ago. The address was written in the company. I forgot to take it. President Pei saw it at the doorman today. By the way Brought me here.”
This can also explain why Pei Shaoze asked him to go in, and why he was carrying a bag when he went out.
Of course, Cheng Xia also felt that the excuse she made up was terrible. Fortunately, Sister Rong didn’t think much about it. She smiled and said, “Oh, Director Liu called you. The filming at the school gate has been finished, and I will move to the next scene.”
Speaking of work, Cheng Xia’s expression immediately became serious: “Okay, I’ll be over!”
When he followed Sister Rong to the playground, the crew had already set up the scene there.
Today’s snow is heavy. Due to the absence of students during the holiday, not even a footprint can be seen on the white playground. The surrounding dry trees are also covered by thick snow. The whole world is pure white and clean. Ran, Cheng Xia stood on the side of the playground and couldn’t bear to step on it to spoil the beauty.
Director Liu was wrapped in a thick down jacket and was watching from the side of the playground. Next to him were screenwriter Xu and Teacher Lemongrass. When Cheng Xia walked over, she heard Director Liu ask, “Do you think it will work?”
Xu Moran frowned entangledly: “This scene has a high demand for actors. Cheng Xia and Ye Mingqian have known each other not long ago, and if they are filming rival scenes, it is easy to get rid of them frequently if the understanding is not enough.”
Liu Xueyi raised his head and looked into the distance. After a while, he sighed and said, “Such a snowy day is hard to come across. Today’s snow scene is so beautiful. The effect of the shot must be very shocking. Alas, I don’t know it will be in a few days. There will be no such weather.”
Lemongrass said softly, “Director Liu, it’s better to ask the actors’ opinions.”
“Well, I have sent someone to call them.” Director Liu said, turning around, and into Cheng Xia’s eyes, he hurriedly waved to Cheng Xia: “Cheng Xia, come here.”
Cheng Xia trot over quickly: “Director Liu.”
Liu Xueyi asked: “Can you play against Ye Mingqian? There is a scene in which Xu Fei confessed to Qin Nian. Today’s weather is really suitable. The pure natural snow scene is real and beautiful.”
Cheng Xia said seriously: “Director Liu, I can try.”
Liu Xueyi was overjoyed and patted Cheng Xia on the shoulder: “Great, let’s try it first! You have read the original work, you should know that Qin Nian just treats Xu Fei as a friend, and is very protective and caring for Xu Fei. Xu Fei liked Qin Nian, and when he confessed to Qin Nian, Qin Nian already knew that he had split into Omega.”
Cheng Xia nodded: “Well, Lu Fengyang said, Xu Fei in the next class is the best-looking Omega in the school. Qin Nian likes Lu Fengyang, but Xu Fei, whom Lu Fengyang liked, confessed to him. Now, his mood is very complicated. I want to show his emotional changes in this scene.”
Qin Nian secretly liked Lu Fengyang, and Lu Fengyang liked Xu Fei’s appearance. As a result, Xu Fei suddenly confessed to Qin Nian. What’s more sad is that Qin Nian just now learned that he had split into Omega.
The dramatic development made him dumbfounded.
It is not easy to show this kind of complex emotional transformation. But Director Liu was very confident in Cheng Xia’s performance during Xia’s audition, so he brought up the rival scenes of Cheng Xia and Ye Mingqian, and wanted to take advantage of this rare snowy day to finish the key scene.
Lemongrass smiled and encouraged: “Cheng Xia, come on, I believe you can catch Ye Mingqian’s play.”
In the entire crew, Ye Mingqian is the most popular-more than 4 million fans. His acting skills are also the best-he participated in a literary movie with a score of over 9.5, and his crying scene broke the hearts of countless people.
With this great god, Cheng Xia’s pressure is not normal.
But since the director made the request, he couldn’t hold back, so he agreed on the spot.
After a while, Ye Mingqian was called to the set. Liu Xueyi explained some precautions to him in a low voice, and then asked Ye Mingqian and Cheng Xia to recite the script in the next corner.
After the boot, the whole crew conducted a script reading, and the two were familiar with the script, but did not formally confront the drama.
Ye Mingqian looked relaxed, with a smile in his eyes. Cheng Xia was a little nervous, her voice was dry, and she obviously couldn’t let go.
Suddenly, Ye Mingqian leaned over, pressed his ears, and said softly in a bewitching and ambiguous tone: “Cheng Xia, I like you.”
Cheng Xia’s heart suddenly jumped, and her face flushed red: “You, what did you say?”
Ye Mingqian returned to his place and looked at him and said, “Don’t be nervous, just kidding. I am an Omega and I won’t tag you like Alpha. Relax, don’t you think it’s cold today?”
Cheng Xia subconsciously answered: “It’s quite cold…”
Ye Mingqian’s peach blossom eyes were full of gentle smiles: “So, let’s try to shoot this scene as few times as possible. I don’t want to stand in a snowy day and confess to you seven or eight times, frozen into a popsicle. .”
Cheng Xia was amused by him: “Yes, you have a lot of lines in this scene. If you are NG frequently, you have to keep repeating ‘I like you’, which is too embarrassing.”
Ye Mingqian put away the script and said seriously: “I have almost memorized the lines. Let’s correct it again.”
Cheng Xia noticed that Ye Mingqian’s script was sketched and marked with many notes, and she admired the Omega actor in her heart. It makes sense for Ye Mingqian to become popular so quickly. He is the most popular one in the whole crew, but he is concentrating on the script instead of playing big names and giving the newcomers a face. Cheng Xia’s favor with him suddenly improved a lot.
Cheng Xia’s script was also marked with notes. When the two saw each other’s script, they smiled at each other, put down the script and started to play.
“Qin Nian, wait a minute, I have something to tell you.”
“Xu Fei?”
Both of them had good memories, the script was so well memorized, and smoothly finished the lines.
After reading, Cheng Xia suddenly said curiously: “I remember that on the day of the audition, you looked taller than me, why today…”
Ye Mingqian leaned in and said softly: “My real height is 177 cm, which is 1 cm shorter than you. On the day of the audition, in order to make my aura stronger, I wore a pair of sneakers with increased internal height.”
Cheng Xia’s eyes widened slightly: “The heightened shoes inside?”
Ye Mingqian taught him experience: “Yes, especially when playing against some overly tall actors, the director not only asked me to wear height-enhancing shoes, but also put a brick under my feet. No way, Alpha in the circle is generally over 185.”
Cheng Xia nodded in agreement: “There are still a few meters and ninety meters away, they are too tall, and they have to look up.”
Ye Mingqian chuckled softly: “It’s a meter and a half, do you mean Mr. Pei is like this?”
Cheng Xia looked around and met Pei Shaoze’s sight not far away. His heart beat slightly, and he hurriedly avoided the importance and just perfunctory: “Not only Mr. Pei, there are also many Alpha actors in the circle with more than 1.9 meters. I really don’t know how their genes are, one is higher than the other.”
Ye Mingqian smiled and said, “Don’t you say that Alpha has developed limbs and simple mind?”
Cheng Xia shook her head subconsciously and objected: “I think President Pei is very calm and wise, and also very principled. Alpha has all kinds of things, so I can’t generalize.”
…
In the distance, Pei Shaoze looked at the scene of Ye Mingqian chatting with Cheng Xia, feeling very pleased. He was very worried that Cheng Xia would be suppressed by Ye Mingqian, after all, Cheng Xia was far less famous than Ye Mingqian. Unexpectedly, the two Omegas got along fairly well, and they whispered together, not knowing what they were talking about.
He was very interested in this scene, so he simply walked to Director Liu and sat down to see it for himself.
Soon, the deputy director shouted: “Ming Qian, Cheng Xia, ready.”
The two walked side by side from the corner.
Director Liu stepped forward to personally teach them how to move later, and both of them expressed their understanding.
The various departments of the crew are in place, and the filming officially begins.
Snowy day, early morning.
Cheng Xia came to the school carrying a school bag, and soon after walking into the school gate, a voice suddenly sounded behind him: “Qin Nian, wait a minute!” He turned his head and found “school grass” Xu Feizheng standing there smiling at him.
Cheng Xia smiled brightly at the other party: “Xu Fei, are you here too early?”
Ye Mingqian stepped forward and stopped half a meter away from Cheng Xia. He suddenly took out a plaid scarf from his schoolbag, looked at Cheng Xia gently, and said, “I bought you a scarf recently. Treat it as a Christmas gift, thank you for checking the information for me in the previous composition contest.”
Cheng Xia hurriedly waved her hand: “No need, no, old classmate, why are you so polite!”
Ye Mingqian’s voice was very gentle: “My little heart, you can accept it.” After he said, he unfolded the scarf, carefully wrapped it around Cheng Xia’s neck, and said, “You look good in you.”
Cheng Xia fiddled with the scarf around her neck helplessly, and said with a smile, “Thank you then.”
The two walked forward side by side, talking about the recent exam as they walked. Both of them are academic masters, just a liberal arts and a science. When he walked near the playground, Ye Mingqian suddenly stopped, looked at the spectacular snow scene on the playground, and whispered: “It’s snowing, the scenery here is really beautiful.”
Two cameras were following along the way. Director Liu sat in front of the monitor and clenched his fists excitedly——
So beautiful!
The handsome “Qin Nian” and the beautiful “Xu Fei” are standing together, surrounded by heavy snow, and the whole world is like ice and jade. Although the audience knows that the two are Omega, the two standing together, the picture is pleasing to the eye!
The two stood side by side for a few seconds, and Ye Mingqian suddenly said softly: “Qin Nian, do you have anyone you like?”
Cheng Xia read the original work many times, and the name Qin Nian has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. With a “Qin Nian”, it seems that he has also become a Qin Nian. He knows that he has split into Omega and knows that he likes his good friend Lu Fengyang. Ye Mingqian’s words evoked countless memories of him, and he was slightly stunned. , Looked away uncomfortably, pretending to say relaxedly: “I like someone? No, I am busy doing homework every day, how can I have time to think about it.” When speaking, his voice gradually weakened because of a guilty conscience.
Ye Mingqian said: “I like someone and I like him for a long time. When I saw him for the first time in middle school, I felt that he was as warm as sunshine. As long as I was with him, I would be very happy.” Ye Mingqian looked back. Cheng Xia, Cheng Xia immediately caught his scene and asked curiously: “I have been liked by you for so many years, that buddy is too lucky, right? Who?”
Ye Mingqian’s eyes were very gentle, he looked straight into Cheng Xia’s eyes and said seriously: “It’s you.”
At first, Cheng Xia thought that she had heard it wrong, and looked at Ye Mingqian suspiciously. After meeting his gentle gaze, Cheng Xia’s eyes gradually widened, and a blush suddenly appeared on her face: “You, don’t be kidding. .”
Ye Mingqian stared at him: “It’s not a joke. I like you, I’m serious.”
Cheng Xia froze in place at a loss, and was suddenly confessed by an Omega, who was still Alpha’s dream lover in the school, and he had just split into an Omega a few days ago. What kind of story is this?
He was stunned for three seconds, and then recovered as if he was struck by lightning, and said in a panic: “Yes, I’m sorry, I don’t know how you liked me since, but I… I only think of you… …”
Ye Mingqian’s eyes darkened: “Just be a friend?”
Cheng Xia scratched her hair, blushed and stammered: “Xu Fei, you are really good, but I am not good enough for you… You deserve a better Alpha. Yes, sorry… I never thought about it. I’ve been with you…”
“Can’t you try? I really like you.”
“No way.”
Tears gradually floated in Ye Mingqian’s eyes.
Cheng Xia gritted her teeth and clenched her fingers firmly.
After a while, he made up his mind, lowered his head and said, “Sorry, we won’t have any results, you should stop thinking about it.” Cheng Xia turned around, the expression on her face was extremely complicated, and she walked quickly as if she was running away. Go far.
Standing in the snow, Ye Mingqian held back his tears and looked in the direction where Cheng Xia had left. He walked in a hurry, and his figure quickly melted into the overwhelming snow. The camera gradually zoomed out, leaving only the thin back of the tearful teenager in the snow.
At the end of the scene, Liu Xueyi did not call to stop, but leaned in front of the monitoring screen to carefully watch the playback.
It is not uncommon for Ye Mingqian to be able to enter the play so quickly, even crying as soon as he cries. After all, Ye Mingqian’s acting skills and crying scenes have been widely recognized by directors in the circle. What he didn’t expect was… Cheng Xia was able to catch it!
The lines from beginning to end are not bad, and the performance of emotions and movements is also very good. He interprets that complex and entangled attitude vividly-shocked, suspicious, at a loss, and finally fled!
The two moved silently, and the scene of the confession in the snow completely exceeded Director Liu’s expectations!
After watching the playback three times in a row, Liu Xueyi asked in a low voice, “How does Pei always feel?”
Pei Shaoze nodded: “Yes. But I can keep improving and make up some details.”
Liu Xueyi thought so too. He stood up and walked in front of the two actors, whispered a few words, and asked them to perform again. Cheng Xia and Ye Mingqian looked at each other and started from the beginning.
This time, the degree of completion was better than before. The details of Cheng Xia’s movements became more aura. The scene of Ye Mingqian’s last tears was also very distressing.
On the third time, Liu Xueyi couldn’t help but pat his thigh: “It’s great, this scene has been done!”
The staff around were a little surprised.
The confession scene is the most difficult to shoot. Others stare into your eyes and say I like you, so it is easy to laugh. If you don’t go for seven or eight times, you are embarrassed to say this is a confession scene.
But today, Cheng Xia and Ye Mingqian had an exceptionally smooth confrontation, and they actually passed it three times! In particular, as a newcomer, Cheng Xia can keep up with Ye Mingqian’s rhythm and play with Ye Mingqian back and forth. This is something the director, screenwriter and author never expected.
Lemongrass looked at Cheng Xia’s direction, her expression was very moved. She said softly: “When I was reading the script that day, I saw Cheng Xia’s script was full of notes. He was very serious and studied Qin Nian every day. The characters and the lines are memorable. Therefore, as long as someone takes him, he will enter the play very quickly. He already regards himself as Qin Nian.”
Screenwriter Xu also praised: “This kid is very talented in acting, and he is willing to work hard and endure hardships. He will definitely become popular in the future!”
Liu Xue looked at Pei Shaoze: “What do you think of President Pei?”
However, Pei Shaoze’s gaze has been on Cheng Xia not far away.
Cheng Xia was very happy and was standing there chatting with Ye Mingqian. Holding a hand warmer from Pei Shaoze in his hand, he was wearing a white down jacket, his cheeks were a little red from cold, but his eyes were full of smiles.
Pei Shaoze is of course happy that the seedlings he raised are praised by so many people. This mentality is probably the same as the mentality of parents when they hear their neighbors boasting about their children?
Pei Shaoze faintly said “Uh” and put on a business-like attitude, saying: “Cheng Xia, a newcomer, is really good. Taking advantage of the rare snowy day today, you can film more of his rivals with Ye Mingqian.”
Liu Xueyi thought so too, and immediately asked the deputy director to prepare.
Pei Shaoze stayed on the set for a day.
On this day, the crew progressed rapidly, and once Cheng Xia and Ye Mingqian formed a tacit understanding, the subsequent scenes became smoother and smoother. I thought it was going to be late into the night today, but it ended after five o’clock in the afternoon. The completion of Cheng Xia and Ye Mingqian’s rival dramas was amazing, and the whole crew was happy.
Pei Shaoze also returned home ahead of time with his little brother.
On the way, Pei Shaoyan has been using his mobile phone. Pei Shaoze thought he was bored to watch the news. As soon as he entered the house, Pei Shaoyan came over mysteriously and said: “Brother, if you meet the actor’s birthday during the filming, will the crew help Actors celebrate?”
Pei Shaoze nodded: “Of course. In this case, the actor will not take time off and go home, he must have his birthday on the crew.”
Pei Shaoyan thoughtfully: “I checked the birthdays of all the protagonists and important supporting actors of the crew today, and found that Cheng Xia’s birthday is March 21, a passionate and energetic Aries! It’s already late February, not far from his birthday. Oh.”
Pei Shaoze: “…?”
At the puzzled look of her brother, Pei Shaoyan said with a smile: “You are a producer, Cheng Xia performed so well today, and there is no fear of playing against someone with great acting skills like Ye Mingqian! The director, screenwriter, and author are all there. Compliment him, shouldn’t someone who is a producer reward him? Let alone a birthday! Taking the opportunity of birthday to give gifts or something, of course!”
Pei Shaoze was silent for a moment and nodded: “It’s also… his birthday, I should prepare well.”
Pei Zha in the original book never celebrated her birthday with Cheng Xia. It seems that every year for Cheng Xia’s birthday, the person who never takes Cheng Xia into his heart will miss it for various reasons.
Not this time, Pei Shaoze thought, Cheng Xia will spend his 19th birthday with Cheng Xia himself.
Just give Cheng Xia a warm memory.
