Chapter 28 Chen Qingquan Benquan
The person who spoke was a woman in her forties.
Huang Lu smiled awkwardly at Shen Lang and said, "This is our crew's assistant director Li Qiu. She is the assistant director who is responsible for the actors' makeup!"
For a long drama like "In the Name of People", there are usually many makeup artists, some are responsible for extras, some are responsible for supporting roles, and each protagonist also has a dedicated makeup artist to do their makeup, so the team is very large.
Generally, a film crew will set up several makeup team leaders according to the makeup artists and the people they serve, and then they will be managed by a dedicated assistant director.
Li Qiu is the assistant director who is specifically responsible for makeup.
"Teacher Li, what do you think? Let's talk about the matter, not the person. Please speak freely!" Huang Lu turned around and winked at Li Qiu.
But Li Qiu was a middle-aged woman who was very serious about her work. She pretended not to notice Huang Lu's expression and frowned, "Teacher Shen, the role of Chen Qingquan in the play is a man in his fifties or sixties. If I'm not mistaken, you are only in your thirties now. It's a bit difficult to put on makeup. Besides, this is not a costume drama. Putting on makeup can solve many problems... It's not possible for a serious drama..."
These words made everyone present nod secretly in their hearts.
That’s right, with today’s makeup technology advancing with each passing day, it’s pretty easy to make young people look older.
But makeup is makeup, there is always an element of acting.
There is no problem with other crews, but not with the drama "In the Name of People".
why?
Because it should be close to life.
Have you ever seen a vice president of a court putting on makeup and acting?
This will undoubtedly distract the audience!
Shen Lang had expected that some people would question his handsome appearance. Alas! It was all because of this handsome face.
But what is he afraid of now?
He has seen my 72 transformations... No, he has the art of disguise, one of the three major sorcery techniques in Southeast Asia.
He just wanted to try out the effect of this thing, and now the opportunity has come.
"Director Li, this is the case. I personally have quite a bit of experience in crew makeup. How about you take the trouble to help me do it yourself, and I'll give you some advice?" Shen Lang said sincerely.
Li Qiu laughed out of anger when he heard this.
She graduated from the Makeup Department of the Imperial Capital Film Academy at the age of eighteen. She has worked with countless crews over the past few decades and is undoubtedly a top makeup artist in the industry.
This Shen Lang might be an okay actor, but I didn't expect him to be so arrogant that he would challenge her authority in the professional field of makeup?
Do you want to give her some advice?
"Haha! I didn't expect that Teacher Shen, a grown man, is also knowledgeable about makeup. It really opens my eyes!" Li Qiu sneered.
Shen Lang: "..."
Damn it, I was clearly speaking sincerely, but why did it sound so different in this woman's ears?
"Well, since Teacher Shen is so knowledgeable about makeup, I have a rare opportunity to learn from a [professional] like you!" Li Qiu's tone was a little sarcastic, "Why don't I do your makeup in front of everyone, and you take the time to give me some pointers?"
Shen Lang felt upset by the woman's teasing tone. Fine, since you want to slap me in the face, then just give me your fucking face!
After thinking this through, Shen Lang smiled faintly and said, "Okay!"
These two short words surprised the entire crew.
Originally, everyone put aside his character and appreciated Shen Lang's acting skills.
But isn’t this guy too crazy?
As we all know, on the set, makeup artists cannot be offended.
Otherwise, what is filmed may very likely become a lifelong laughing stock for an actor.
And who is Li Qiu?
A top professional student who graduated from the Imperial Capital Academy of Performing Arts.
I have worked with many big groups and grew up step by step from a small makeup artist to a big star.
He has a solid basic foundation and has been studying abroad in recent years. He is one of the best in the country in his field.
Who are you, Shen Lang? Are you questioning Teacher Li?
This guy really doesn't know what he's talking about.
Li Qiu was so angry at Shen Lang that she almost laughed. She asked someone to bring in her makeup box and table and chairs and placed them in the center of the studio.
Seeing that the two were arguing, Huang Lu hurried to Shen Lang and whispered, "Teacher Shen, what are you doing... hey... this matter!"
Shen Lang smiled slightly: "It's okay, Director, you can give me a score for my makeup then!"
"You..." Huang Lu was speechless and turned around to persuade Li Qiu again!
"Director Li, please give that person some face when the time comes! If he really wants to give you some advice, you should pretend to agree with him!"
Li Qiu sneered: "Okay, that's a really good idea, how can I not accept it..."
Huang Lu: “…”
Seeing Shen Lang sitting down in front of the dressing table, Li Qiu didn't hesitate to take out a 79-gram eyebrow pencil and prepared to put on makeup.
Unexpectedly, just as her hand approached Shen Lang's eyebrows, Shen Lang suddenly stopped her and said, "Wait a minute!"
Li Qiu was so angry that he laughed: "What? Teacher Shen, do you regret it?"
regret?????
I'm just afraid that your jaw will drop in a moment, okay?
That being the case...
Get out of the way!
I'm going to start pretending...
[The Three Great Evil Arts of East Asia: Disguise] ………………Activate…………………………
For a moment, all the details about the image of Chen Qingquan interpreted by Mr. Hou in later generations appeared in Shen Lang's mind one by one!
Shen Lang pointed at his head and said to Li Qiu: "Come on, change my wig first, I want a middle-aged hairstyle with sparse hair on top!"
"Pay attention to the eye bags. They should be big, the kind that are caused by alcohol and sex! It would be best if they were a little dark!"
"Why do you want to make your face so rosy? It should be sallow!"
"I'm asking you if you're a professional? Chen Qingquan is sixty years old, give me a few more crow's feet!"
"Hey, you guys, find two T-shirts with flashy colors, and middle-aged casual pants, the khaki kind!"
……
Half an hour later.
Everyone is stupid.
Is the person in front of me still Shen Lang?
This [old man] has a sallow complexion, sparse hair on his head, and droopy eye bags. When he smiles, that kind of vulgarity can't be suppressed and bursts out.
Shen Lang glanced at the stunned Li Qiu, stood up and said to Xu Guanjun: "Qi, Qi, Director Qi, um, hey, um, my sister, um, deputy director..."
He said as he raised his hand.
Damn, Shen Lang’s portrayal of Chen Qingquan can no longer be explained by the question of whether he looks like him or not.
This guy is Chen Qingquan Benquan!
I'm so depressed. I have more than 400 collections and more than 200 followers to catch up with the latest chapters.
But why are there so few people who are speaking up and supporting it?
Family! What do you think of the book?
Give me some advice, or I can’t bear it!
Woohoo!
