The applause finally died down.
Chen Feng and Hua Zai stood on the stage, receiving comments from the four judges.
Jiang Wen was concise, only saying three words: “Very good.”
Teacher Huang didn't even dare to comment, only giving a thumbs up: “I’ll be honest, I was truly engrossed just now.”
At a time like this, it was impossible to comment.
If you praised them too much, the previous two groups would be unhappy.
If you didn't praise them?
Wouldn't the audience curse you for being blind?
So Teacher Huang was very slick; he just stated his own feelings and that was it.
When it was Tong Gege's turn, she was even less likely to comment, humbly looking at Liu Tianchi beside her: “Let Teacher Tianchi comment, I still haven’t emerged from the story.”
Liu Tianchi: “…”
Hmm!
Well said.
This girl is getting slicker and slicker.
Liu Tianchi took a deep breath, then decided to say a few words.
“First of all, I greatly admire Hua Zai’s acting style.
A small short play, and it’s a stage performance, I believe Hua Zai doesn’t often do this kind of thing, right?”
Hua Zai on stage smiled humbly: “I’ve really never performed on a stage like this.”
“That’s right.”
Liu Tianchi nodded: “Actually, stage performance is very different from filming on a set.”
“On a set, there are cameras on you, lighting, styling, and set design, so actors can feel immersed.”
“That kind of situation makes it easier to get into character.”
“Moreover, when filming, you can have NGs, so the mindset is relaxed.”
“But for stage performance, especially live broadcasts, you don’t have the chance for NGs.”
“This feeling is undoubtedly tense.”
“Even veteran actors can easily get nervous.”
“However, Hua Zai has a deep-seated professionalism.
Once he gets into character, there’s truly no ripple of nervousness, I admire him greatly.”
Hua Zai on stage smiled humbly: “You flatter me.”
Liu Tianchi then looked at Chen Feng: “Let me talk about Chen Feng.
Your performance today shocked me greatly, I’m telling you the truth.”
“When I saw you portraying the gang boss, I instinctively felt that you were this person.”
“Suspicious, irritable, arrogant, ruthless, all sorts of complex emotions were expressed.”
“Extremely realistic.”
“But when you revealed your undercover identity, a certain feeling about you subtly changed.”
“Your eyes were clear, and you exuded righteousness.”
“Even your way of speaking, your articulation, changed.”
“You should know that even the most excellent actors only have one way of articulating when delivering lines.
Some people even spend their entire lives unable to master this one method of articulation.”
“But you?”
“You actually even changed your habit of articulation.”
“In my opinion, it’s as if you transformed into two different people, which is a very magical thing.
I believe most actors cannot do this.”
“So, Chen Feng, your insight into the character is simply astonishing.”
Liu Tianchi spoke very strongly, using the word ‘shocked’ several times, so as soon as she finished speaking, there was a round of applause in the venue.
Before Chen Feng could respond, Hua Zai on stage spoke again.
He picked up the microphone and said with a smile: “I’d like to add something.”
“We have a segment where Chen Feng and I discuss the details of the evening’s operation.”
“I believe everyone was deeply impressed by that segment, right?”
“Chen Feng had a lot of lines.”
“And they were very professional.”
“But I confess, after we received the script materials, this detailed segment was not included; we had to design the lines ourselves.”
“It was purely impromptu improvisation on stage.”
“So, all those lines you heard were created by Chen Feng on the spot.
We didn’t rehearse or practice our lines beforehand at all.”
Hearing this, the entire audience burst into an uproar.
The four judges were stunned.
Completely impromptu performance?
And able to deliver so many lines?
This time, everyone was truly shocked.
Especially the way those lines were delivered, it was as if a real gang boss was going to betray another, even exuding an incredibly ruthless and fierce aura.
Awesome!
He could be deified.
Liu Tianchi was stunned for a long time before slowly nodding.
She believed Hua Zai’s words.
Because such a thing is easy to confirm; Hua Zai couldn't possibly lie on a live broadcast stage like this.
Too amazing.
Is this a born actor?
Blessed by God.
Otherwise, how could he achieve such a level?
Just as everyone was shocked, Uncle Heitu, sitting in the guest assistant section, suddenly picked up the microphone and cleared his throat.
“Ahem, um, host, can I say a few words?”
The host immediately turned to him: “Uncle Heitu, please say a few words.”
“Okay.”
Uncle Heitu looked at the two people on stage and smiled: “Um… I won’t talk about Hua Zai; we’re too familiar, I know what he’s like.”
“As for Chen Feng, I have to admit, your performance was very well done, and there’s truly nothing to criticize, really.”
“But when it comes to impromptu performance, I really don’t quite believe you can deliver so many professional lines without preparation.”
“So, could you let me give you a topic on the spot, and you perform it.”
“Let me see if your improvisational ability is really that amazing, alright, Chen Feng? You decide.”
As soon as Uncle Heitu finished speaking, the stage below became noisy again.
Here we go again.
On-the-spot assessment, impromptu performance.
This is what tests one’s ability the most.
Those with poor psychological resilience would probably collapse directly on stage.
But Chen Feng had already tried it before.
During Jiang Wen's on-the-spot assessment, he perfectly displayed an arrogant and wild demeanor.
Who knows what kind of topic Uncle Heitu will give.
On stage.
Chen Feng was unfazed.
He just nodded to Uncle Heitu: “No problem, Uncle Heitu.”
“Good.”
Uncle Heitu smiled and nodded, then said seriously: “Alright, if the lines in the segment you performed earlier were all improvised by you, then do it again now.”
“Just pick anyone from the audience below.”
“Try to analyze this person from the perspective of a police investigation.”
“Just say a short segment of lines.”
“Let me see your improvisational ability.”
“Of course, it’s okay if it’s not professional; I believe you can’t possibly master so many professional terms.”
“Alright, give it a try.”
There was applause from the audience below.
Everyone was encouraging Chen Feng.
However, some individuals frowned.
For example, Jiang Wen, or Liu Tianchi, or even Hua Zai.
Isn’t this kind of test too demanding?
It's a live broadcast, not a pre-recorded show.
He was performing well earlier, and then you give him such a difficult question, if he makes a mistake, the previous performance effect will be discounted.
Uncle Heitu was just being protective.
Seeing that Chen Feng's popularity was unstoppable, he deliberately made things difficult for him.
The goal was nothing more than to help Xu Yao maintain his first-place position.
It was a bit too much.
However, Chen Feng seemed genuinely unconcerned.
There wasn't even a hint of difficulty on his face.
He just nodded calmly, holding the microphone, and said: “Okay, Uncle Heitu, I’ll try.
To all the audience members here, I’ll just randomly select someone, alright?
Whoever I pick, please cooperate with me.”
After speaking, he walked generously towards the front of the stage.
As he walked, he activated his ‘Fire Eyes’ skill.
This skill was an ability granted when entering the police role.
Of course, it wasn't Sun Wukong's Fire Eyes.
When Chen Feng used this skill, all observed targets in his field of vision gained some detailed tags.
For example, this woman, the tag on her face was ‘plastic surgery’, the tag on her chest was ‘silicone’, and the tag on the Gucci bag in her hand was ‘fake’.
For example, the man over there, the tag on his hand was ‘cigarette burns’, the tag on his foot was ‘fracture marks’, and the tag on his head was ‘wig’.
And for example, the young man in the distance, the tag on his mouth was ‘betel nut’, the tag on his crotch was ‘impotent guy’, and the tag on the phone in his hand was ‘fake fruit’.
And for example…
The man sitting in the second row near the aisle.
The tag on his face was ‘fake beard’, the tag on his shoulder was ‘knife scar’, the tag on his tiger’s mouth was ‘knife wear’, the tag on his pocket was ‘murder weapon’…
Chen Feng’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Holy crap?
