Ji Mian's eyes were so focused on Xiao Jiashu, that it ended up making Lin Le Yang a little flustered. He was just about to say something to draw back the attention ofJi Mian, so he agreed with Fang Kun "I like this scene best. And the reason why Ji Ge can get the Huabiao Award was due to the brilliant performance of this scene. Several judges at the time repeatedly watched the video and eventually defined it as the best performance of the year. When the film was officially shown, the audience even male ones, cried when it came to this scene. "

Chen Pengxin immediately echoed, "Yes, when I went to see this movie, I came out with red eyes. I thought it would be embarrassing, but I didn't expect everyone to be the same. Now it's a bit funny whenever I remember that."

Xiao Jiashu looked around and saw everyone agreeing, so he didn't bother arguing. Regardless of the Huabiao Award, he believed that the scene of cleaning the empty house is the most touching one and did not need anyone's approval. Since there was no speculation, he didn't want to stay any longer. He ate a steamed bun, said goodbye to Ji Mian, and hid next to him to read the script.

Fang Kun shook his head and said, "How long as this newcomer performed for that he regards himself as a professional film critic. It's also courageous of him to comment on Ji Ge's films in front of the person himself. For this level of boot-licking though I'll give him a point"

Chen Pengxin nodded, "Yes if you really want to pretend to be Ji Mian's fan, you at least have to do your homework and don't just open your mouth. We adore Ji Mian's fans, they even made a microblog on Weibo which is full of news and photos of Ji Mian. Look at Lin Le Yang, for example, he has watched the movie "wandering in troubled times" more than ten times and can recite all the lines. "

Lin Le Yang glared and blushed in embarrassment. He does love this movie, but it's not as exaggerated as a dozen times. He and Ji Mian are lovers. With that kind of relationship, how would he not know how Ji Mian is in private? Chen Pengxin was just buttering up! Making this whole case embarrassing!

Ji Mian finished the last mouthful of steamed bread and said slowly, "The public's aesthetic is often against the artist's aesthetic, which seems to be a law. I prepared for two hours to make the crying scene, but I prepared for a full month to make the scene of cleaning the empty house. I've been shooting the crying scene in one take, and for the empty house, I NG'ed 26 times. Director Wan Xuedong and I talked about it until more than one o'clock in the middle of the night before we said our goodbyes. The next day, we continued shooting, and it still took more than a dozen NGs before it was successfully done. "
He took out a tissue and wiped his mouth. He got up and went to Xiao Jiashu.

It took Fang Kun a long time to react. He said stunned, "What does he mean by that?"

Lin Le Yang was in a mess. What does that mean? The scene that Ji Ge can spend a month to prepare for is a major one, and Director Wan Xuedong's director even NG'ed him so many times, which was enough to prove the status of that scene in the whole movie.

While he was still confused, Ji Mian came to Xiao Jiashu and said, "You probably don't know. The scene of cleaning the empty house was actually the end scene of Director Wan Xuedong's movie" wandering in troubled times"

Hearing this, Lin Le Yang's face turned white and his chest constricted. He's been with Ji Ge for years, but he couldn't even understand one of his favourite movies. Even if I didn't understand, I still used my own ignorance to attack Xiao Jiashu's aesthetic. Is this not rushing to make someone a stepping stone?

With Ji Ge's temperament, of course, he won't care about this, but Lin Le Yang still felt ashamed. Because he finally realized the potential of Xiao Jiashu and the gap between himself and the other man. In fact, he was not a newcomer. He had been studying movies all these years to prepare for his debut. He has learned a lot from Ji Ge. He should be 100 times better than Xiao Jiashu who studied finance.

But now, all of a sudden, he found that Xiao Jiashu was much better than himself in both talent and aesthetics. He can understand and perform a role in an instant, as well as understand the thoughts and artistic language that the director wants to express that was hidden in the film. This was a quality a top actor must-have.

On the contrary, I don't have these qualities. Will Xiao Jiashu crush me in the future? With him around, will he become more and more mediocre? Li Le Yang did not dare think too deeply about it. He clearly wanted to, but he could not interrupt their conversation in public.

Ji Mian looked back at Lin Le Yang and frowned.

Xiao Jiashu was confused by this sentence. After a long time, he suddenly said, "No wonder I always thought those scenes were redundant! Why did Director Wan want to change the ending? After so many ups and downs, Kong Xun left his wife and son, leaving only a sad silence. This feeling is the most gripping. Suddenly, a little granddaughter appeared and brought her up. Listening to the news of the founding of new China, she closed her eyes. This ending really fell into the common pattern and lowered the style of the film by a lot"
Ji Mian's attention was grabbed by this remark.

Instead of looking at Lin Le Yang, he turned around and said, "The two sons of Confucius and Xun Zi joined the two political parties and they fought each other once the civil war broke out, and finally they lost both. This plot was sensitive. The organizing committee didn't approve when the trial was over. Director Wan had to delete a lot of scenes and make up the ending of the main theme. In order to have a good take on cleaning the empty house scene, I had to prepare for more than a month and had more than 40 NGs, which was unprecedented. "
