Chapter 9, his performance is as if he has experienced it personally

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

I will give it a try, after all, I have never been exposed to the thriller genre of films before. Han Fei's dream is to become a comedian, and he does not even know how he started auditioning for horror movies.

Arriving in front of the eerie apartment building, Han Fei lightly knocked on the door, and after a short while, a staff member came out.

"Is my acting really that good?" Han Fei's mood has just calmed down, and his expression has returned to normal

In the case of the human puzzle, the police announced seven victims, but in fact, the murderer also used the bodies of the deceased to create an eighth victim. You will play the role of the second victim—Wei Youfu. Director Jiang spoke very quickly, constantly flipping through the script: "Let me briefly explain the plot to you. Wei Youfu is an ordinary white-collar worker who returns home late after working overtime. He discovers that his wife is not at home. He sends several messages to his wife, and she replies that she has gone back to her parents' house. Exhausted, he does not think much of it and goes straight to the bedroom. Here comes the key point: in reality, his wife has not returned to her parents' house; she is already dead at this moment, and the murderer is hiding in the bathroom, dealing with her body. The messages he received earlier were actually sent by the murderer."

CUT ! ''

Director Jiang! The new actor has arrived!" A staff member directly handed the script to Han Fei: "Normally, auditions would take place in a designated area, but since we are a low-budget thriller, we won't be too particular about it. Please hurry over, Director Jiang and the others are already waiting anxiously.

The light is distorted, and a gap has been opened in the bathroom door.

The fear hidden deep within Han Fei's consciousness was activated, at which point the bathroom door was completely opened, revealing a bloodied knife before his eyes, as the murderer rushed towards him from the darkness

"Listen to me first, the most challenging part of this scene is the latter half. Wei Youfu, in a state of half-sleep, hears the bathroom door open, and his wife's head is placed at the entrance. Just as his moment of fear ignites, an even greater terror strikes! The murderer emerges from the bathroom, targeting him as the second victim." Director Jiang highlighted several key points in the script: "We cannot depict a scene of handling a corpse on the big screen, so we can only convey that cruelty through your changing expressions. You must use your fear to evoke fear in the audience! Can you do that?" Can you do that?"

The wife's head rolled out through the crack of the door, that familiar face rolling on the living room floor, she seemed to be laughing, yet also seemed to be chasing after herself, more like questioning herself why she did not accompany her.

Five minutes later, everyone took their positions, and the room fell silent in an instant

That kind of gaze is indescribable, even the murderer rushing towards Han Fei stopped in his tracks and turned to glance behind him.

There is no need to act at all, as the terrifying memories from last night have resurfaced in my mind

I tell you, if you find it dirty or tiring, then do not come to be an actor! I do not care whether you are arranged by the investors; since you have come to participate in my play, you must do as I require. Director Jiang has a bad temper and used to be a teacher at the New Shanghai Film Academy, where he once taught the class that Han Fei was in.

Then who should I play

Holding a copy of the script, Han Fei was pushed into a room where six actors of varying ages were standing against the wall, and no one dared to speak.

"The audience can position the actors, but the actors should not position themselves. You are an actor, do you understand?" Director Jiang walked over to Han Fei with the script: "Our play is adapted from a real case from a few years ago - the human jigsaw puzzle. The murderer has not yet been caught. To better immerse yourself in the character, I suggest you read more of the news reports from that time and ponder the character's inner thoughts.

Everything seemed to have been rehearsed many times, and the wandering gaze gradually found its focus. Just as Han Fei was not yet fully awake, the bathroom doorknob began to turn by itself

His voice was very loud, scaring one of the young girls to tears

"Are you putting on a show? Have you ever truly respected this profession? This is simply nonsense!" In the center of the room, a middle-aged man pointed at the actors and spoke very sternly.

Bang!

The cold wind brushed against my cheeks, and it seemed as though a world of the dead was hidden behind that pitch-black door

In the quiet room, a faint sound suddenly broke the silence. Han Fei groggily opened his eyes, his gaze sweeping across the living room, finally fixating on the lock of the bathroom door

You have finally arrived, Director Jiang is currently furious. The newcomers these days are increasingly outrageous, they simply cannot convey the kind of feeling he desires. Director Jiang has already rejected several individuals in a row.

Director Jiang, holding the script, rushed over and angrily shouted at the stagehand playing the murderer: "What are you looking back for! You are the murderer! Why are you looking back!"

The pupils constricted, the heart raced, and when five fingers reached out from the crack of the door, the fear stored in Han Fei's memory was stirred up

Still crying? Why is your plasma only stuck to your clothes? There is none on your face or hands? Did the murderer take special care not to dirty your face while attacking you?

I have never acted in a horror film, and I have something very important to attend to tonight

"You are a damn murderer, what are you afraid of! Such a perfect shot wasted, it drives me crazy!" After Director Jiang finished speaking, he ran back into the bedroom and personally helped Han Fei up: "Han Fei, your acting has improved tremendously! You have a talent for acting in thrillers! I feel like you were born to act in thrillers!"

I would like to ask, what is Wei Youfu's personality like

Of course! Your performance is as if you have experienced it personally, it is truly impressive

Blood accelerated, heart rate suddenly increased, adrenaline surged, Han Fei's face instantly turned pale, his body activated a self-protection mechanism, and the psychological fear even directly triggered a physiological response

"Let's go to the site!" Director Jiang waved his hand, calling a few cameramen to join him on the second floor. "This is the shooting location we have chosen. Originally, we wanted to shoot at the crime scene, but we have been unable to contact the owner of that haunted house."

The pale face hidden beneath the lampstand in his mind overlapped with that of the murderer before him, igniting the fear deep within Han Fei's heart, as the real threat of death caused him to display the most terrified expression

The room has been treated for light blocking in advance, and after drawing the curtains, it appears dim and gloomy

Director Jiang Yi asked me to audition, but I have encountered some troubles recently, possibly..." Before Han Fei could finish speaking, he was enthusiastically pulled into the apartment.

Familiar darkness, familiar sense of fear, but this time he has nowhere to escape

"No, Brother Jiang." The stagehand removed the mask, and his face was also covered in cold sweat: "I just saw Han Fei's expression, and I really thought there was something behind me, so I unconsciously turned my head to take a look."

Everyone get ready! Let's all cooperate! The male antagonist hasn't arrived yet. Stagehand, put on the mask and go to the restroom to act as the murderer. You need to time it right to open the door and let the head out, then burst out of the restroom.

A chilling, bone-deep cold, an inescapable despair

Lying in the dimly lit bedroom, his body slowly submerged in darkness, Han Fei closed his eyes

Upon seeing Director Jiang's gestures, Han Fei gradually got into the zone

After training for a while, Director Jiang finally turned to Han Fei and said, "I have heard about your situation. I have a role here that you can try for."

Han Fei glanced at the atmosphere and found it difficult to directly refuse the invitation to participate in the performance, so he tactfully said: "Director Jiang, I have never acted in a thriller."
