From Lan Feilin in "Eighteen-Year-Old Sky", to Ruan Guan in "To the Youth We Will Eventually Pass Away", to Bei Weiwei in "A Little Smile is Falling Down"... It seems that every youth campus drama is indispensable to the blessing of school flowers. In the popular youth drama "Flash Girl", Zheng Youen, played by Ni Kexin, is the chief violinist of the Western Music Department of the Zhongxia Conservatory of Music, and is also a young and beautiful proud school flower, confident and open- What are the character traits of this character? What is the special significance of the screen debut? With these questions in mind, we interviewed Ni Kexin.
The screen debut is eye-catching, and the youth plays the violin musician
Two years ago, the film version of "Flash Girl" directed by Wang Ran won a good box office and word of mouth. The drama version of "Flash Girl" is still operated by the original producers Ma Bao Whale and Wang Ran, telling the story of Chen Zhen, Oil Slag and a group of girls who love folk music, forming a national musical instrument team and fighting a Western band. Zheng Youen's Western music department is one of the main opponents of the challenge of the folk music department.
Speaking of this role, Ni Kexin carefully analyzed: "Like every student, Zheng Youen lives a three-point and one-line life in the canteen, dormitory, and piano room. In fact, she is not a villain in the traditional sense, but because she is very recognized by the instruments she has learned, she is a bit arrogant and looks down on other instruments. In the play, Zheng Youen and the small partners of the Department of Folk Music opened up when they did not agree, and the campus was afraid, the bus was afraid, and even the amusement park was looking for opportunities to intimidate each other, they were "tit-for-tat" and intimidated a healthier campus life, contributing many laughs to netizens.
In the process of interpreting the characters, Ni Kexin gave the characters a unique temperament and personality characteristics: "Zheng Youen loves his instrument very much, and the violin is almost inseparable, so I specially designed it, and every time I walk with the piano on my back, I will protect the bottom of the case with my hands." "The actor's meticulous polishing of the details makes the character image more distinct, three-dimensional, and layered.
As the story gradually enters the climax, the relationship between the characters will also undergo major changes, "In Zheng Youen's eyes, her life has only one straight line, and the end of the straight line is to become a good violinist." In the process of fighting with the folk music department, she also found that her practice was flawed - too much emphasis on skill and lack of emotion. Therefore, the PK with the folk music department also helps her to constantly adjust and improve herself. ”
Ni Kexin once had the reputation of a school flower in her middle school years, and it seems that it is not difficult to play the image of a school flower. When she heard this evaluation, she hurriedly and modestly "debunked the rumors": "School flowers? It should be an unofficial version, right? In order to create a good role, Ni Kexin learned violin skills half a month in advance: "Half a month before the start-up, the crew arranged an instrument teacher for us, and every morning from nine o'clock to five o'clock in the afternoon. During the filming, the musical instrument teacher also followed the group, and if there was anything I did not understand, I would immediately consult the teacher. ”
In addition, the crew also invited the senior music producer Ah Wei to sit in the music director, Ni Kexin frankly said, "Teacher Ah Wei sent me many videos played by violin masters at home and abroad, which helped me a lot in my study. The film version of Zheng Youen also indirectly gave her a lot of "help": "I will communicate with the director, how does the film version of Youen practice violin?" I learned a lot of tricks from the director's mouth, such as when shooting, the right hand bow swings up and down, which is more important than pressing the string with the left hand. ”
For the first time, he challenged the suspense theme and flattered the personality Jiang Yuanyuan
"Flash Girl" is Ni Kexin's debut, and for her, this work has a profound significance. "Before that, I wasn't quite sure if I wanted to go the actor's path, but this show helped me find the joy of acting and strengthened my determination to be an actor." Subsequently, Ni Kexin also ushered in the first time to play the heroine of the play "Girls In that Summer".
"The boundary between love and evil, the folded world." ——"The Girls In That Summer" is the first female secret room suspense reasoning mini-series in China, telling the suspense story of five girls in the secret room. Ni Kexin plays the female number one Jiang Yuanyuan, "I like this character very much, she is a girl who dares to love and dare to hate. The misery of childhood directly affected her character. Therefore, I keep pleasing everyone around me to get inner peace and satisfaction. The tragic color of the character makes Ni Kexin love and feel pain.
Ni Kexin, who was born in Chengdu and has transferred to Taiwan in high school, bluntly said that the biggest pressure to shoot this drama is "line off", "Jiang Yuanyuan's character is a northern girl, the lines are many and long, the crew asked us not to dub, all using the original voice." I didn't speak Mandarin very well at first. In order to overcome this difficulty, Ni Kexin, driven by the brothers and sisters of the drama masters in the same group, got up early every day to practice her lines.
Working with Li Mo, the director of "Girls That Summer", also benefited Ni Kexin a lot. "There was a scene with five lines of dialogue, and we shot it eighteen times back and forth, just because I didn't say it well, but I'm grateful to the director and the team for being able to patiently give new people the opportunity to coach them." After being down-to-earth and sharpened again and again, Ni Kexin's acting skills have made visible progress to the naked eye.
Filming Jiang Yuanyuan's most important crying scene that night, Ni Kexin had been filming all day, and the tiredness of the night was wrapped in tension, making her anxious but unable to cry. The director saw the situation and called her aside for half an hour: "The director and I talked about life, love, work, and chatted, and he stirred my emotions, and I cried uncontrollably." "That scene went very smoothly, about three times.
It is said that three women in one play, five girls in the same secret room, what kind of spark will be wiped out? "The Girls In That Summer" is full of freshness in both the theme and the intention. Under the play, the five girls also formed a deep friendship. "This play was filmed in Qingdao, we often met to pick up strings after work, and sometimes the director would join in, the whole team was very loving and harmonious, and everyone kept in touch from time to time."
Vlog bloggers who don't want to be food critics aren't good actors?
Ni Kexin, born in 1999, is full of youthful breath, and when she laughs, she can be sweet and salty. The collagen on the face is enviable. And her hard photo performance is also very tense, with a variety of styles, sometimes cute sister, sometimes royal sister, temperament changeable.
Now a sophomore in the Drama Department of the Chinese Culture University (Taiwan), although she has participated in two works, she still focuses on her studies and has a clear plan for the future: "Usually I will read some scripts, if there is a suitable opportunity, I will use the winter and summer vacations to learn and practice, and then devote myself to the acting career after graduating from college." "Hard work and self-motivation, clear thinking and a sense of proportion, such a little sister who does not love?"
Speaking of the original intention of acting, Ni Kexin recalled the journey of "hitting by mistake" into the circle. "When I was a child, I wanted to be a food critic, but I accidentally embarked on the road of acting. Initially as a model for the school's photography department sister, I took some photos, and achieved a small reputation on the Internet, and then I began to contact short video shooting, and the process of shooting short videos also made me fall in love with the camera. ”
For improving her acting skills, she has strict requirements for herself, "I often use my vacation to go to Beijing to take acting classes. But after shooting two plays, my feeling is that although it is important to learn the theoretical knowledge of acting, it is also necessary to find opportunities to practice in the crew. In addition, we should also look at the performances of our predecessors and read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. ”
Ni Kexin on the screen is an uncompromising "flash girl". In life, she is a proper "Buddhist girl". "I am very homely, and I usually like to draw, soak in hot springs, and play games. Maybe it's the quiet version of Chen Zhen in "Flash Girl"? Eat eat sleep sleep, really pig pig girl haha. Ni Kexin, who is humorous and humorous in private, has burst with affinity on social platforms such as Weibo, becoming a beauty blogger and food expert, sharing Vlogs from time to time.
"I like to document my life through these platforms. On the last day of every year, I will work with my family or friends to open up these bits and pieces of daily life and see what everyone has done this year. Share it if someone likes it and can bring happiness to everyone, they will be happy themselves. Ni Kexin said.
Ni Kexin, a strong pet fan, often "flipped the fan's brand" on Weibo and distributed "pet powder benefits" online. For example, draw for your fans. "Once, a little sister who was in love with a military in a long distance asked me to help her brother paint a painting, they did not see her boyfriend for many years and did not let her spend money to buy expensive gifts for him, their stories I listened to very touched, but also felt particularly solemn, worried that I could not paint well, after hesitating, I bought a pair of gloves from Taiwan and sent them to her, which also represented my blessing to them." The heart is delicate and soft, which is probably Ni Kexin Benxin, right?
