Chapter 227: Chapter 217: Urging Wu to Play Games (4k)

Cui Fu’s question naturally halted the filming of this particular take.

Before filming this scene, everyone had anticipated that it would require multiple takes, but they had all assumed that it would be due to Wu Mu’s subpar acting, not even considering that it might be stopped due to an issue with Cui Fu.

What happened?

The crowd onlookers, who were a bit further away, did not have as clear of a perception as Cui Fu and were still a little slow to understand what was going on.

But Yang Rongfa was immediate to catch Cui Fu’s implication.

Yang Rongfa, who had been watching Wu Mu perform through the monitor, was even more shocked than Cui Fu.

Initially, he had no expectations for any intense impact in the scene; he would have been grateful just for it to go smoothly.

Yet, when Wu Mu truly started acting, not only was there a surge of impact that made his heart jump, but he also felt his hair standing on end.

It was as if someone was filming, in great detail, a person drowning right beside him.

Watching through the monitor, he felt an overwhelming sense of suffocation that made him feel breathless as well.

Especially when the camera gave Wu Mu a close-up, meeting Wu Mu’s eyes chilled him to the bone.

In that instant, he was inexplicably reminded of the dead victims he had seen in morgues when he previously did research for crime movies.

It was strikingly similar!

Too frightening to watch!

Not at all like acting, and could Wu Mu really convey such nuanced micro-expressions?

He was on edge, constantly doubting whether Wu Mu just happened to be feeling unwell, which caused this portrayal.

So, the moment Cui Fu broke character, he immediately reacted, "Stop, stop, we can shoot it later!"

He rushed over, "Is Wu Mu feeling unwell?"

Wang Ren also approached with a puzzled expression.

Cui Fu pointed at Wu Mu, "His hand is so cold."

Yang Rongfa instinctively touched Wu Mu’s hand and was startled, "Teacher Wu Mu?"

Seeing the startled looks of the two men and the puzzled crowd, Wu Mu now realized the value of fully recreating a scene he once experienced.

Not only a slight change in facial expression, but the more baffling aspect was reproducing his physical response from that time.

Turned pale was one thing, but the temperature of his body was even restored to how it was during that particular moment.

This seemed somewhat unscientific, but perhaps it could still be explained by intense emotions of anxiety and fear affecting physical conditions.

Wu Mu felt this Skill was more useful than he had anticipated.

"I’m fine," he said, waving his hand.

Really fine, or just pretending?

Producer Yang was skeptical, "Teacher Wu Mu, if you’re feeling unwell, we can shoot this scene later."

"No, really, I’m fine." Wu Mu chuckled, "Just got a bit too immersed just now, and my body reacted along with it."

Immersed to the point of the body reacting too?

Did you just suggest that your acting was so convincing it deceived your own body?

Producer Yang was speechless.

But...

"You see my face? Isn’t it not as pale as before, and my hands are not cold anymore?" said Wu Mu, who had already turned off the Skill and felt his body rapidly returning to normal.

Producer Yang subconsciously checked Wu Mu’s complexion, and indeed, it wasn’t as pale anymore, and his hand wasn’t cold either.

He stood there, stunned.

Through their conversation, the rest of the onlookers were beginning to realize what was happening.

Did Producer Yang mean that Wu Mu’s performance was so powerful they all thought he was actually unwell instead of acting?

???

Everyone was instantly filled with question marks.

Come on, this sounded like some bizarre tale from the set, something they might believe if an experienced actor like Cui Fu were involved.

But Wu Mu?

Everyone was plunged into astonishment.

Meanwhile on the set, two people had odd expressions on their faces ever since the camera started rolling.

They were Sun Yueqing and Shi Wu.

Sun Yueqing was completely bewildered.

What did she see?

Wu Mu’s just performance... it was almost exactly like how someone looked after being pulled out of water!

No way, he actually mastered it just by experiencing it once?

How could that be possible?

Since when was acting so easy?

Sun Yueqing was amazed.

But regardless of how strange everyone found it, the scene still needed to be shot.

After triple-checking that Wu Mu was alright, they resumed filming.

And then, without any further issues, the scene was done in one take.

Watching Wu Mu coming off the set, Sun Yueqing couldn’t hold back any longer, "How did you just act that out?"

Wu Mu smiled and spread his hands, "Just experienced it a bit, then used the content of that experience to evoke the emotions and act it out."

Sun Yueqing slapped him lightly, "Stop bullshitting, acting isn’t that simple! Did you actually secretly practice beforehand and now just wanted to surprise everyone?"

If it were anyone else, she would think it impossible for someone to be so frivolous.

But with Wu Mu, thinking of how he had just played a trick on her on the bridge... she began to doubt.

Wu Mu chuckled, "Do you think I have nothing better to do? Just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean I can’t. I am a natural-born actor!"

He was very confident as he spoke these words.

Indeed, he was now a natural-born actor, certified by Atong!

Sun Yueqing scoffed at him, "A natural-born actor that previously performed so terribly?"

"Can’t I suddenly have an epiphany?"

An epiphany?

If anyone else said that, she would have slapped it right onto their face.
