Initially, Li Changde was moved by Qin Zhou’s sincerity. Later on, he really felt that Liang Yin was a good seedling and put serious effort into teaching her.
In the fifth class, Liang Yin thought that she would have to spend another class suffering the wrath of Li Changde. Unexpectedly, Li Changde praised her for the first time!
“Pretty good attempt!” Li Changde gave such a comment. Liang Yin was overjoyed!
The remark was not to be underestimated. It was a great compliment coming from Li Changde!
“But don’t get cocky!” Li Changde muttered, “Young woman, don’t feel smug just because of a little praise. Calm down and settle down. Give more thought to the details!”
“It’s rare for you to praise me. Can’t I be happy?” Liang Yin half wheedled.
After a few lessons, she had made a good impression on Li Changde. He had gradually grown to like this humble student. He held nothing back and taught her everything.
“The acting profession was actually derived from stage drama. In the old days, when there were no television dramas or movies, there was only a stage. A few people would put on their costumes and sing opera on it. They danced with guns and sticks, and the audience wanted to have a good time. Later on, Chinese film and television developed. The first TV series, ‘A Mouthful of Pancake’, was filmed, and that was the beginning.” After a pause, Li Changde continued, “Life is like a play. A play is like life. A really good actor will bring real life situations onto the stage, and make it convincing. Other than some people being talented, it’s more about learning. Look, there was a painter in the past who carried a chair and sat on the street to paint characters. He observed the expressions of everyone who passed by. Only then could he put the spirit in the characters he drew.”
“First of all, to bring your character to life, you have to know the character. For example, if you’re acting as a police officer, you have to act out that righteous aura! Carefully analyze the characters’ personalities and expressions. Use your everyday observation, life experience is also an important part. Otherwise, why would someone go to a mental hospital to experience it for a few weeks, in order to play the role of a mad person?”
The man added, “Also, the most important thing is that you have to be able to understand the script. You have to carefully understand the psychology of this character and immerse yourself in the role. As an actor, you have to get into character first. Otherwise, it’s impossible to expect the audience to get into character! Also, your lines are a little lacking. Practice them more. You have to know that none of my students use post-production dubbing! Only in China do we have dubbing actors. In the past, foreign dubbing actors were all actors. They dubbed animation and foreign translations. They all recited their own lines. But in this country, look at the young people these days. Some of them can’t even speak Mandarin well before coming to act. What a disgrace!”
It was obvious that Old Master Li was very dissatisfied with the current state of the entertainment industry. Liang Yin listened to him grumble for a while before ending the day’s lesson.
It happened that Qin Zhou had some free time, and came to take her back to the hotel.
Along the way, Liang Yin was in high spirits and bragged to Qin Zhou, “Teacher praised me today! He said that I’ve improved a lot!”
The man smiled and said, “That’s a good thing!”
“That’s right. You don’t know how hard it is to get a good word from him!”
As Liang Yin spoke, she probed, “Say, this lesson costs 100,000 yuan. Are you the one paying for the tuition fees?”
“It’s paid by the company.”
“Well then…”
