851. Chapter 851 The 851st match Yang Kang is the most important
How is Nicholas Tse Feng's Yang Kang acting? Zeng Zhiwei was stunned when he heard this, and thought for a while before saying, "It's not bad, but it's not enough." He shook his head and sighed:
"Actually, this is also a problem I'm worried about. "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is divided into three parts, and the last two are written by Azai and a group of people. I'm not sure whether Americans like this or not, but the scene will definitely hold up. However, the previous movie "Iron Blood and Danxin" is completely about you and Miss He. Tingfeng takes the lead. You and Miss He have a natural tacit understanding. This is something other actors cannot replace, but Tingfeng... I don't think it's better than Miu Qiaowei's when she was young."
In the last episode of "Iron Blood and Danxin" these days, it happened to be a plot where various actors' acting skills exploded. In contrast, Nicholas Tseung seems a little overwhelmed as Yang Kang, and obviously cannot keep up with the rhythm of others.
"Yes, he is cool, charming, and serious, but he still lacks spiritual energy in his performance." Li Xiaole nodded in agreement. Now Nicholas Tseong is still practicing his eyes and posture, striving to perform perfectly on the screen. His problem is that he is not working hard, but he is stubborn and has not yet learned it.
In the eyes of many viewers, the most outstanding characters in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" are Huang Rong, Hong Qigong, and Huang Yaoshi, but in fact, there are only two souls in this drama, Guo Jing and Yang Kang, who are the real struggles throughout this story and represent the struggle between two different values and concepts.
Just like the Joker and Batman, Sherlock Holmes and Moriarty, these old enemies have many similarities, but they embark on completely different paths in their lives. It was the inner collision of the two characters Guo Jing and Yang Kang that made the glory of a true hero. If it weren't for Yang Kang, Guo Jing would be just an ordinary fool.
If Nicholas Tsefeng’s Yang Kang is not good at acting, then no matter how he plays the “stupid Guo Jing”, the effect will be greatly reduced.
"Brother Zeng, call him here." Li Xiaole never taught any lessons from Nicholas Tsefeng, a young actor with a stubborn and paranoid personality, but just let him play freely, because he knew Nicholas Tsefeng's personality. Although he would not talk back, he would have resistance in his heart, which would make things worse. So he, Yang Kang, passed the performance, but now in the last episode of "Iron Blood and Danxin", it was completely a confrontation between Yang Kang and Guo Jing. This required Nicholas Tsefeng's performance to be improved by several levels.
"Director Li, what did you call me?" Nicholas Tingfeng came over, looked at Li Xiaole coolly, and asked in a calm tone.
"Tingfeng, do you don't like to play Yang Kang?" Li Xiaole looked at him and asked with a gentle smile. He could see that the most promising young actor in Hong Kong has always been unhappy in this drama. In fact, this is not surprising. He has been standing at the center of the stage since his debut. No one of the actors of his age is more talented and harder than him, so he has always been the protagonist, but this time he has to be inferior to others as a villain. If it were Li Xiaole, he would definitely not be convinced.
"No, I just think this role is too simple." Nicholas Tsefeng shook his head. There was no expression on his cold face, but after all, he could not completely hide his heart. Li Xiaole could see that he was a little unwilling to accept it. Many good actors have this competitive personality. No matter who you are, he wants to try it. Who has the ability.
"I know you want to play Guo Jing. To be honest, do you think in your heart that you will definitely be better than me in the performance of Guo Jing?" Li Xiaole looked at him and smiled gently. Nicholas Tse is indeed different from what people imagine. His dull role is not bad, but on the contrary, he is particularly outstanding. In "October Siege", he played this type of role, coachman A Si, and won the Best Supporting Actor Award for the Academy Award.
Nicholas Tsefeng was stunned again. He didn't expect Li Xiaole to ask so directly, but he was also a straightforward person. He didn't like to hide many things, so he simply nodded and admitted: "Well, I think I will play Guo Jing better than Yang Kang."
Zeng Zhiwei was listening to the side and laughing and cried, patting his shoulder and saying, "You look like this, do you think it's convincing to play Guo Jing?" Nicholas Tingfeng's facial temperament inherited his celebrity parents, and he had the temperament of a superstar in the old era. It was too unreasonable to ask him to play the silly Guo Jing.
"Why can't you play Guo Jing if you are good-looking? Director Li is also very good-looking." Nicholas Tse asked strangely, but he stopped Zeng Zhiwei. He couldn't say that Li Xiaole is not as handsome as Nicholas Tse... He just winked with Nicholas Tse, so he told him to be smarter and not compete with the director for his job...
"Yes." Li Xiaole was not angry, but looked at Nicholas Tingfeng for granted and nodded: "Indeed, if you play Guo Jing, at least you won't be worse than me."
He understood what Nicholas Tingfeng wanted to say. The same thing that young actors wanted to do was to break through themselves and challenge those roles that others thought were impossible to prove their abilities. Not only actors, but also the same in any industry. In this case, as a director or leader, you must not say anything to them: "Young man, take your time, you are still experienced now, and you must be down-to-earth in life." And so on. They don't listen to this and guide them to know themselves.
"But to be honest, there are many more people who can act well in Guo Jing, but Yang Kang is the one who must be you." Li Xiaole looked at Nicholas Tingfeng sincerely and said:
"The character of Guo Jing is a simple and straightforward personality. As long as it is stable, it will not be bad. However, to reflect the glory of this character, Yang Kang is a character with a completely different personality from his in the plot. You must understand that how bright the stars in the night sky depend on how dark the night is~" Li Xiaole hugged Nicholas Tingfeng's shoulder and said in a more emphasis:
"Tingfeng, do you know? We are all stars in this drama, and you are indeed that unique night. You, Yang Kang, are the most important anti-color among all characters."
In almost all classic dramas, although people remember that they are all the glorious protagonists, it is absolutely a big misunderstanding that an impressive villain is usually the key to boosting the whole series. These such important villains are often mistaken for being dispensable. This is definitely a big misunderstanding.
"I am the most important?" Nicholas Tseong was stunned when he heard this. He had never considered this from this perspective. However, he was not a newcomer who had just debuted. He could feel that this cunning director was deliberately putting a high hat on him, and he didn't believe it in his heart.
For example, the last episode of "Iron Blood and Danxin" filmed today can be said to be the episode with the most important scenes of Yang Kang, which describes the plot of Yang Kang being forced by his master Qiu Chuji, lover Mu Nianci, father Yang Tiexin, mother Bao Xiruo, and brother Guo Jing. He asked him to kill his adoptive father Wanyan Honglie under the pressure of five key figures.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this episode is simply like the acting skills of the five characters Qiu Chuji, Mu Nianci, Yang Tiexin, Bao Xiruo and Guo Jing. Everyone has a long list of emotional lines. In contrast, Yang Kang has few lines, but he is constantly replies passively, being coerced, and they are all very short, and there is no room for play.
This is also the situation where Nicholas Tse is in the whole movie. Although he has a heavy role in this drama, he is actually beaten by various veteran actors. Whether it is Leung Ka-hui who plays Qiu Chuji, Ke Zhenye Huang Qiusheng, or Michael Miu who plays his father Yang Tiexin, they are all the first generation of movie emperors and TV stars in Hong Kong. Even Zhang Bozhi and Li Xiaole are the best actors in the younger generation. They all completely suppress Nicholas Tse. It seems that he, Yang Kangpu, is ordinary and not too bad, which is also the reason why Nicholas Tse is extremely depressed at the moment.
"You don't understand if you say this. Come with me to see how Michael Miu played the original version." Seeing that Nicholas Tseong didn't believe it, Li Xiaole pulled him to the camera, pulled out his previous 1983 version of the tape, and played the 19th episode of "Iron Blood and Danxin".
Nicholas Tingfeng stared at the screen carefully, and saw Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiruo commit suicide one after another during the forced storm, and Qiu Chuji rebuked Yang Kang with righteousness, and even after Yang Kang competed with Guo Jing, the most classic scene where Guo Jing let Yang Kang show the style of a hero for the first time... He saw the most glorious and classic moments of many characters, but he saw the most inconspicuous Yang Kang...
Especially when he saw Yang Tiexin, played by his father, Xie Xian, he was completely focused, staring at the monitor screen with his eyes tightly, his fists were pinching tightly, and he was extremely focused. His father was really good... Others also acted very well, and Yang Kang only seemed very cowardly...
After watching it, Zeng Zhiwei next to him shook his head. This episode just happened to show that Yang Kang was really just a supporting role... He wanted to help Li Xiaole say something just now and couldn't even get back to the lie.
"I still don't understand..." Nicholas Tse turned his head and looked at Li Xiaole solemnly, looking puzzled. Even if he wanted to put a hat on himself, why did Director Li release a perfect and unconvincing episode... This episode is indeed the most dramatic and emotionally impactful episode among the entire The Legend of the Condor Heroes, but it almost doesn't matter to Yang Kang...
"Don't understand? If you don't understand, let's take a look again." Li Xiaole smiled.
What does it mean? This is not a profound and obscure plot, what do you need to watch again? Nicholas Tse frowned unconsciously. He felt that the director seemed to be unable to come back, and he wanted to make a little mysterious.
But the director is the director after all, and he is the biggest after the show starts. Even Zeng Zhiwei, who usually acts as an elder brother, is respectful to Li Xiaole on the set. Although he is dissatisfied, he has no choice but to bite the bullet and watch it again. At this time, Zeng Zhiwei also quietly kicked Nicholas Tse Feng below. Nicholas Tse Feng nodded with understanding, and had already made up his mind. After watching this again, he must give Li Xiaole face and say that he understands. Yang Kang is very important and will definitely work harder in the future.
