Capítulo 1475: Chapter 1466: Life Is Like a Play (Part 1)
CP chemistry really is a kind of mysticism.
Sotis, even couples who have been married for decades might not have CP chemistry when standing together. It’s not necessarily people with high attractiveness who have CP chemistry. In so shows, the male and female leads are particularly good-looking, but when they stand together, it feels like they don’t match, like they’re disdainful of each other, resulting in no CP chemistry. So male leads are overly greasy; if they weren’t handso, their way of hitting on girls would make people want to call the police. So female leads have their beautifying filter turned up to the max, always looking innocent and silly. Such pairings also lack CP chemistry.
Although CP chemistry can be reluctantly acted through acquired skills, innate conditions are still too important. When the male and female leads act together with sparks flying, just a look of tacit understanding might even be stronger than that of a real couple. Of course, television can still use editing to create a feeling, but movies rely truly on solid conditions and acting skills.
Another strange thing is that so real couples or married pairs, when acting together, can’t let go and act freely. Instead, it’s during the ambiguous phase or when there are good feelings between a man and a woman that their attraction is strongest. Perhaps it’s because real couples are too used to each other, though they have perfect understanding, there’s always a familiar feeling like the left hand holding the right. The heart-fluttering first encounter between a man and a woman, the twists and hesitations in the process, can’t be portrayed.
Especially if there are intensely intimate scenes. Even if two actors have great acting skills, the feeling of unfamiliarity and familiarity is completely different. You might think you acted well, but on the big screen, every action, every expression, every muscle tremor is magnified countless tis. If you want to win an award, it has to be paused and scrutinized repeatedly. If the romantic scenes aren’t important, it doesn’t matter, but it’s the most feared when the main focus is on romance.
Li Yiru intended to observe. However, Xia Siyu and Bo Yan made a great choice this ti. They didn’t choose a story of love at first sight or one with intense physical contact. “Sunrise” is about their reunion after a long separation. Clearly, they still have feelings for each other, but they’ve been apart too much and together too little. Due to societal changes and differences in life experiences, the gap is too deep, and there’s no turning back.
If their love affair went smoothly, it’d indeed be hard to find the right feeling. But they had a past relationship and broke up, although married, they’re like strangers. Looking back now, although it was just a twist in their love life, bringing those emotions into the play makes it easy to empathize with the characters.
Just like Bo Yan, when he looks up at Xia Siyu, he thinks, if he hadn’t pursued acting, if he stubbornly competed with Bo Yi for the Bo Family’s inheritance. Four years ago, when he t Xia Siyu again, she was already a superstar, while he was still an unknown university lecturer. The gap between them, like Fang Dasheng and Chen Bailu in the play. If he hadn’t bravely taken that step, would they not be together now?
And Xia Siyu, she thinks, if she hadn’t agreed to marry Bo Yan back then, they probably wouldn’t have crossed paths in this life. Oh, maybe they would, just like the female lead and the male lead in the play; they’d et, nod, and exchange a few words. If they had to work together, they’d pretend nothing happened in private, maybe even cooperate to create so CP buzz. But inside, it would still be barren.
