Chapter 12

A few staff members who didn't know the script well whispered to each other, really thinking that Zhou Jin was the first male lead of this drama.

Li Yifeng, who had finished makeup, happened to pass by and his face turned black when he heard this sentence.

Reba was a bit excited when she heard these discussions.

According to her idea, if she were the director, she would directly let Zhou Jin play the first male lead. Then she would replace Sister Mi's position to be the first female lead and act against Zhou Jin fiercely.

It's a pity that she is still a small transparent, and what she says doesn't count.

Although Yang Mi had already seen Zhou Jin's full makeup appearance yesterday, she still brightened her eyes when she saw him walk out of the dressing room today, and a touch of appreciation appeared in her eyes.

But thinking that the ball game that should have happened last night was ruined, Yang Mi glared at Reba slightly.

Reba looked at Sister Mi innocently, looking blank—

What's wrong?

What happened?

Director Liang looked at Zhou Jin and was also very satisfied.

He had been in this line for so many years, and he knew very well that in most cases, as long as the lead actor is handsome and beautiful, it can naturally attract the audience.

Director Liang picked up the megaphone and shouted.

"First scene! Ling Duan takes the sect leader's treasure to capture Tu Su, and injures Tu Su, Senior Brother Ling Yue saves the scene!"

"Props! Lighting! Photography... everyone get ready!"

Zhou Jin heard the director shouting and took a deep breath.

He had read the script of this scene many times, and his lines were already memorized.

On the surface, no one spoke, but the lead actor Li Yifeng, Shuang Zi, Ma Tianyu, and several other actors were all looking at Zhou Jin without moving.

They all wanted to see what was so powerful about this newcomer who had replaced Chen Weiting, who had Hong Kong capital support.

The first scene was filmed in an orderly manner.

When it was Zhou Jin's turn to play Senior Brother Ling Yue, Director Liang shouted: "Cut."

Then he turned to Zhou Jin and said: "Next is your appearance."

Zhou Jin, who had changed into his full costume and finished his full makeup, nodded.

Everyone's eyes fell on Zhou Jin.

This scene not only requires the temperament of Senior Brother Ling Yue's righteousness, but also needs that kind of powerful momentum.

Once it is not played well, it will appear particularly awkward and make people out of the play.

Zhou Jin didn't hesitate and immediately used the character experience card rewarded by the system yesterday.

In an instant, a large amount of details and insights about the role of Senior Brother Ling Yue poured into his mind.

The character's personality, way of speaking, the sense of proportion in every move, the mentality of being both strict and protective when facing his junior brother—everything was as clear as if he had experienced it himself.

In a trance, he seemed to be the Senior Brother Ling Yue of Tianyong City.

【Ding! Your Acting Skill +20 (temporary).】

The parts of the script that were originally obscure and difficult to understand were suddenly enlightened at this moment.

Zhou Jin glanced at the system panel.

【Name: Zhou Jin】

【Age: 35, Height: 183cm, Weight: 80kg】

【Basic Attributes: Strength 78, Endurance 65, Agility 58】

【Superstar Attributes: Appearance 91, Acting 80 (temporary), Singing 50】

【Works: None】

【Assets: Balance 12352 yuan.】

Zhou Jin nodded lightly, and sure enough, the acting attribute was temporarily increased by twenty points.

The director shouted: "Start!"

With a puff, Tu Su, played by Li Yifeng, was hit by Ling Duan with the sect leader's treasure, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell heavily to the ground.

"Stop."

The voice arrived first.

Then Senior Brother Ling Yue, played by Zhou Jin, appeared.

He was wearing a white robe of a Tianyong City disciple, with a sword hanging from his waist, his long hair tied up with a jade crown, blocking in front of his junior brother and others.

His gaze first fell on Tu Su, who was lying on the ground seriously injured, his brow sank, a trace of heartache and anger flashed in his eyes, and then he raised his head, his gaze piercing straight at Ling Duan.

That look was like a sword coming out of its sheath.

"Ling Duan."

Zhou Jin opened his mouth.

The voice was not loud, but every word was clear, as if it were pressed out of his chest, carrying a weight that was not angry but majestic.

His tone didn't roar or shout, but it made everyone at the scene feel a heavy pressure.

"The sect leader gave the treasure to you to protect your fellow disciples, not for you to use it on your own junior brother."

As he spoke, he held his long sword and took a step forward.

It was this step that made the actor playing Ling Duan feel as if he had been nailed to the spot.

The aura on Zhou Jin's body rushed toward him—not the bluffing kind of performance, but the real righteousness and majesty that came from his bones.

Senior Brother should look like this.

Not relying on a loud voice, not relying on exaggerated movements, but standing there, saying a word, and you know this person is the backbone of all junior brothers and sisters.

The actor playing Ling Duan met his gaze, and his brain went blank instantly.

The lines he had memorized were all forgotten in this second.

"Cut!"

Director Liang shouted stop.

Everyone thought Director Liang was going to get angry, but a clear joy appeared on his face.

He saw clearly from the camera that the momentum of Zhou Jin's scene just now was really suppressing the entire screen.

It wasn't relying on editing, it wasn't relying on post-production, it was the actor himself standing there, supporting the aura of the entire scene.

This was even better than he imagined.

Resisting the pressure to let Zhou Jin play this role was really the right decision.

Chen Weiting would definitely not be able to perform this feeling.

"This is the feeling." Director Liang looked at Zhou Jin happily and said, "The momentum of Senior Brother Ling Yue, and that righteousness, are all performed. The state is very good, keep it, do it again."

After saying that, he turned to the actor who was acting against Zhou Jin and added calmly: "Lines, don't forget the lines."

"Yes, Director."

Filmed several more times.

Director Liang frowned and shouted cut more than a dozen times.

Zhou Jin had no problems, but Li Yifeng's acting as Baili Tusu had some problems.

"Shoot again."

As the director shouted "Start," Baili Tusu, played by Li Yifeng, stepped forward suddenly and said in a low voice: "One person does things, one person takes responsibility."

"Cut." Director Liang frowned and shouted stop, "The tone is wrong, here it should be the emotion of not wanting to implicate the Senior Brother, collect it a bit more. Forget it, all actors and staff take a break, and we will shoot again in a while."

Li Yifeng breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

To be honest, he was a bit unconvinced at first.

A newcomer who didn't know where he came from directly took the fourth male lead.

Especially after seeing the makeup photos, he found that this newcomer was more handsome and had more temperament than himself, and he felt even more uncomfortable.

He is the first male lead, and the result is that the fourth male lead is more handsome than the first male lead. What kind of reason is this?
