In 2017, Lu Xiaolin was recognized by more audiences with the image of the female forensic doctor in "White Night Pursuit", and then she starred in "The Silent Truth", "Door Lock", "Mist Tracking" and other works. This time in the suspense adventure drama "Gold Rush", Lu Xiaolin played a single mother Ah Qiu, she circled between Wu Jianchao (played by Liao Fan) and Lao Shan (played by Su Ke), two gold panning bosses, with her ability to explore mines, she won a status that many men could not reach in the gold panning industry. Her only weakness is her sick son, but when her son is kidnapped, she can also judge rationally, make a quick decision, and finally face the kidnapper of her son, showing the fierceness of not losing men. After reading the script of "Gold Rush", Lu Xiaolin felt too good, "This genre I still saw for the first time, very fresh, the level of screenwriting is very high, I decided to challenge it." In addition, after hearing that Liao Fan also took over the project, Lu Xiaolin felt that it would be more stable.
Lu Xiaolin played Ah Qiu in "Gold Rush".
Remember Ah Qiu's core goal to play her "a thousand faces"
"There is no room for women in the gold panning" This is the law that the story has been explained and emphasized from the beginning, Ah Qiu (played by Lu Xiaolin) is an expert in geology, she has never walked through the prospect of mining, with this skill, the gold bosses respect her, she can stand firm in the four wood fields, and sit on an equal footing with the men. "Although she is a woman, she does not rise to power by showing off, she relies on her own skills, so she is very confident, and her goal is very clear: I just want to make money, to have power." 」 This made her look domineering. Speaking of Ah Qiu, Lu Xiaolin analyzed.
To tell the truth, Lu Xiaolin did not fully understand the story for the first time, she found that the relationship between the characters is very complicated, the relationship between people is confusing, and they can become enemies at any time, and they may become friends the next second. Lu Xiaolin felt that if she wanted to create the role of Ah Qiu, she first had to find out who she was with. "When I read the script for the first time, I thought that Ah Qiu was with Wu Jianchao, and after watching it the second time, I thought that she and Lao Shan were the same, and when I saw it at the end, I found that Ah Qiu was with myself." Ah Qiu has a line that condenses the core of this character in this play: I only believe in myself.
Ah Qiu has a place in the gold panning field with his ability.
"Every time I get a role, I set a core goal for this character, I have been thinking about what Ah Qiu's core purpose is, at first I didn't know, and then I felt that Ah Qiu's goal was to guard my own things, and no one could rob me of my things." 」 Lu Xiaolin said that in fact, Ah Qiu has a period of history, but it has been deleted, she has been hurt emotionally before, she does not believe in men, she wants power, only in this way she will not return to the past kind of life, so whether it is negotiation, bottom-up, killing, or feelings, Lu Xiaolin just needs to die and remember this. "In every scene, I will focus on the relationship with the opponent characters, facing Wu Jianchao, I will overcome him with tenderness, I will overcome him with sincerity in the face of Lao Shan, and I will use means to overcome them in the face of others, so that I can also show Ah Qiu's 'thousand faces'."
Ah Qiu has his own judgment about men
When Lu Xiaolin first met the director, she was asked to remove her makeup and take a few photos, and after entering the group, she found that when filming, it was far from simple as plain face. In the golden field environment, all the actors had to be painted a little darker. Although Ah Qiu is a rare woman in the pile of men in the Golden Field, every day is also a "gray head and dirty face" style, and there is no excessive embellishment on the clothing. But this does not affect the display of Ah Qiu's female charm, Wu Jianchao is Ah Qiu's lover, Lao Shan is Ah Qiu's partner, but in his heart he is deeply in love with Ah Qiu. "Although she does not rely on beauty to gain her status, she also knows how to use the advantages of women to control these men."
Ah Qiu maneuvered between Wu Jianchao and Lao Shan.
Many people have not been able to understand Ah Qiu's attitude towards these two men when watching the drama, she and Wu Jianchao have a closeness beyond friends, and will knit sweaters for him at his request, but choose to stand by and watch when he encounters trouble and is calculated. Lao Shan expresses his admiration for Ah Qiu almost every episode, but Ah Qiu never gives any response while accepting Lao Shan's care. "I think Ah Qiu understands Lao Shan's affection for her very well, and she also takes advantage of this, she is grateful to Lao Shan for taking care of their mother and son, but she does not love him, I think she regards Lao Shan as a comrade-in-arms, a person of common interest." As for Wu Jianchao, Lu Xiaolin felt that Ah Qiu liked him, but he did not trust him. "Although Wu Jianchao always said that he would take her and her children back to China, Ah Qiu understood that Wu Jianchao's desire was actually greater than that of Lao Shan, and she could pinch Lao Shan, but she could not guess Wu Jianchao, and she always reminded herself that she could not fall in love with this man."
As for Chen Baojin (played by Chen Feiyu), Lu Xiaolin feels that Ah Qiu has some sympathy for each other, because in the Four Wood Field (Golden Field), only she and Chen Baojin are the only two intellectuals, and she has a sense of trust in Baojin from the beginning, including letting him manage the river and bathing in front of him without fear (bathing in the bath room through the curtain). "Later, she will also use Chen Baojin to help her open holes, including dealing with some more troublesome people."
Talking about Liao Fan: Teacher Liao's play, a very advanced place is the eyes
Every time Wu Jianchao came to find Ah Qiu, Ah Qiu would tell him a story, and when the story ended, if the audience could remember the previous story, they would find that this was Jack London's "Love of Life". From this detail, it can also be seen that Ah Qiu is a person who has read books. There is also a detail that was later deleted, when Ah Qiu coaxed the child to sleep, he would sing English songs. "These details were proposed by Teacher Liao." Lu Xiaolin said.
"The Silent Truth" is the first time That Lu Xiaolin has cooperated with Liao Fan, but the relationship between the two characters in the play is very simple, so the feeling of cooperation is not as profound as this time. "I think Teacher Liao's drama is very advanced in the eyes, he sometimes doesn't move when filming, but everything is in the eyes."
Lu Xiaolin was particularly impressed that there was a scene in which Wu Jianchao, played by Liao Fan, wanted to choke Ah Qiu's neck and almost strangled Ah Qiu to death. "When I auditioned, he really pinched, let me feel the intensity, and said that if I thought it was okay, he would use that strength when shooting." When I was shooting, he cut me off the piece directly. Lu Xiaolin recalled, "Of course, he will grasp that scale and will not make me really dangerous, and I am especially grateful to him for that moment, because the physiological reaction of people cannot be performed, and the truth is the best presentation." Sometimes it is very necessary to come to such a physiological stimulus. ”
Lü Xiaolin also often consulted and discussed with Liao Fan privately, and Lu Xiaolin found that Liao Fan was extreme in filming and paid great attention to details. He would often teach Lu Xiaolin some experience, such as watching a replay and telling her where her hands were better and how her face looked good. Lu Xiaolin said that his goal is to become an actor like Liao Fan, acting with texture.
Talking about Su Ke: Teacher Su Ke outside the play is particularly elegant
"Gold Rush" was filmed in Yunnan, before filming began every day, the actors and staff had to wade through the mountains and rivers for more than half an hour to get to the set, there was no net on the shooting scene, and everyone sat around after filming, in addition to discussing the role, it was idle days, in the words of Lu Xiaolin, the past and present lives of several leading actors were about to finish talking. Even under such circumstances, Su Ke rarely talked with everyone about home. "Outside the play, Teacher Su Ke is not at all like Lao Shan, he is particularly polite and elegant, rarely speaks, and we have never talked about anything other than discussing the script." Lu Xiaolin said with a smile.
Lu Xiaolin and Su Ke's dressing room together, every day when Su Ke came, he dressed particularly fashionably, but after changing clothes, after putting on makeup and looking again, he completely became the old shan in "Gold Rush", and the aura was different. Su Ke is a teacher at the Central Academy of Drama, but when filming, he has no teacher's shelf at all, is very approachable, and never puts pressure on the actors who play against him, let alone end the shelf.
There was a scene that impressed Lu Xiaolin, after Ah Qiu and Lao Shan were washed (robbed), they decided to go to Sister Ridge (another gold field), and the director added a shot behind, that is, Lu Xiaolin smoked a cigarette, and then handed it to Lao Shan, "Teacher Su's performance at that time was simply amazing, because everyone at the scene was improvised, he took it and turned around and took several sips, until the cigarette almost burned out to the cigarette butt. This series of actions embodies Lao Shan's feelings for Ah Qiu in a special way, he has never received Ah Qiu, he knows that this may be his closest contact with Ah Qiu. ”
Su Ke plays Lao Shan.
Talk about Chen Feiyu: Exquisite boys are very able to endure hardships
The first time they met, Lu Xiaolin saw that Chen Feiyu was a fair-skinned, tall and handsome big boy, once Lu Xiaolin was still worried about such a delicate boy, I am afraid that he could not stand the hardships of shooting, "After filming the first scene, I completely changed his view of him, he really can bear hardships, because in fact, in the play, his scenes suffer the most, go up the mountain to eat soil, wrestle, and be hung up to fight, but he has never complained, and he is very serious, every day he is particularly happy to start work, and he will be more real at the professional level. I'm sure he'll be well in the future. ”
——Fresh Q&A——
Beijing News: "White Night Pursuit", "Silent Truth", including "Gold Rush" are all suspense themes, do you prefer such a theme? Do you worry about being labeled?
Lv Xiaolin: Mainly read the script, as long as the script can impress me, I will take it, even if it is only a small role. Since "White Night Pursuit", there are many scripts with this theme to find, so in the range that may be chosen, there will be more such themes. As for being labeled, I am not too worried, the labels are all pasted by others, how to say that sentence? As long as I'm not embarrassed, the one who is embarrassed is someone else, and as long as I don't label myself, the label is someone else's.
