Chapter 773 Character Building
Su Yunshu introduced Si Nian to all things related to acting. The two chatted about trivial matters for half an hour until the phone became slightly hot, and then Su Yunshu and Si Nian hung up.
After Su Yunshu returned home, he did not pick up the script and start studying it as usual.
He pulled out his phone from his pocket, opened the video app skillfully, quickly typed the word "oiran" in the search bar, and a series of related wonderful clips immediately popped up on the screen.
The courtesans in these clips are either charming, graceful, or delicate, and each has a unique charm and style.
Su Yunshu watched these scenes intently, her eyes focused and serious, carefully observing how each actor interpreted the role of the oiran.
Pay attention to their facial expressions, body language, and emotional expressions. Carefully try to figure out their interpretation ideas and performance states in different scenes, try to draw inspiration from them, and incorporate them into the roles you are about to create.
Su Yunshu frowned slightly as if he had thought of something. Although the performances of these courtesans had their own merits, they seemed to lack some sense of reality.
Skip the cookie-cutter images of courtesans in the dazzling ancient idol and fantasy dramas that have flooded the screen in recent years.
Su Yunshu turned his gaze directly to classic TV series from 10 or 20 years ago, and wonderful scenes began to flow across the screen.
After watching just one or two such video clips, Su Yunshu, who was originally full of expectations, suddenly fell into silence.
In today's idol dramas, the courtesans are often portrayed as glamorous, the most beloved and admired by the world.
But is this really the situation faced by the real courtesans throughout history?
You know, in that ancient society with an extremely strict hierarchical system, what good would it be if you had a stunning beauty without the corresponding power to back you up?
Excessively outstanding beauty will not only not become an advantage, but is more likely to bring them endless troubles and harm.
After learning this, Su Yunshu read the script again and had a completely different understanding of the character of Shu Yi.
Shu Yi possesses an extremely beautiful appearance, but perhaps to her, this beauty is just the most insignificant of her many advantages.
What is truly amazing is her extraordinary intelligence, clarity and independent personality.
If you want to become an oiran, you can certainly attract everyone's attention just by relying on your outstanding looks, but if you want to stay in this position for a long time, it is simply a pipe dream without the support of superior IQ and EQ.
Shu Yi possesses both of these qualities. She knows very well that in this complex and ever-changing world, appearance alone can only bring temporary glory. Only the dual control of wisdom and emotion can make one invincible.
When faced with all kinds of people and things, Shuyi can always keep a clear head, quickly understand the key points, and make wise decisions.
She is never fooled by appearances, nor will she fall into traps set by others easily. She is good at communicating with others, knows how to please others with appropriate words and behaviors, and can skillfully maintain her own dignity and interests.
This high emotional intelligence enables her to be at ease in social situations, and both the powerful and the common people admire her.
The book is also charming and alluring, but her cuteness and charm are not worldly, and her every frown and smile are full of spirit.
For the next two days, Su Yunshu was obsessed with shaping Shu Yi's personality. Apart from talking on the phone with Si Nian every day, she spent the rest of her time watching TV series. She was watching classic TV series from the past 10 to 20 years, specifically those with oiran characters.
The overall image of Shu Yi became clearer and clearer in Su Yunshu's mind, and he became more and more confident about how to play the role of Shu Yi well.
Su Yunshu contacted Xia Bingbing and asked her to hire a teacher to teach her how to play the pipa. Shu also has a scene in the play where she plays the pipa.
Xia Bingbing: "Isn't it too late for you to start learning now?"
Sometimes Xia Bingbing admires Su Yunshu's inner strength. If all the artists in the entertainment industry were like Su Yunshu, learning whatever they played, then the circle would probably be full of talented women and men.
"It's never too late to learn if you want to. I don't expect to become a pipa master in a few days, but I have to be proficient in the basic fingering." Su Yunshu is not so confident that she can achieve great accomplishments in pipa with just one or two days of teaching.
But even if you can't learn it very well, you should at least understand the basic fingering and playing techniques. Otherwise, when the time comes, you'll be holding the pipa and your fingers will be pressing the wrong places, which will be too stupid.
