Chapter 26 Comedy talent +3, the entire crew listened to the lecture and laughed (Ch 26)

Inside the venue,

The scene for filming at this time is a hall.

There was a long table in the middle, with several extras in suits sitting on both sides.

The lead actor Chen Teng sat in the main seat wearing a rich gold suit.

On the right stood a woman in a gray suit.

On the left stood a fat man wearing a purple suit and a rhino-looking-at-the-moon hairstyle.

I asked the staff around me and learned that their names were Zhang Yiming and Song Yunhua.

They played Zhuang Qiang and Xia Zhu respectively in the movie.

Sudden,

From the side, a bunch of people came running in.

The leader came in pushing a strange-looking vehicle with a squat toilet in the front!

The man was also dressed strangely, wearing swimming trunks and a swimming cap, a transparent raincoat on the upper body, and rainbow shorts on the lower body.

He kept yelling:

“I want to see Mr. Wang. I’m here to discuss the project.”

“Mr. Wang, please give me a minute to introduce the Luyou device I invented.”

Behind him, a group of extras playing bodyguards rushed forward and pulled him, trying to take him away.

At this time, Wang Duoyu, played by Teacher Chen Teng, spoke up.

“I’ll give you two minutes to tell me in detail how you got your mental illness.”

Chi~

Seeing Teacher Chen Teng say such funny words in a calm tone, Qi Jia immediately laughed.

Fortunately, he knew this was a film set and restrained himself from laughing out loud.

After hearing what Wang Duoyu said, the bodyguards let the psychopath go.

Then the actor who played the psychopath began to give an impassioned introduction to the Lu You instrument he invented.

When I saw him demonstrate how to use it on the spot,

Not only Qi Jia, but all the staff, including the director sitting in front of the monitor, had smiles on their faces.

Because not only is the design talented, but the name is also very simple and easy to understand!

I originally thought that the name Lu Youqi was funny enough.

As a result, the actor took out a bag of salt and sprinkled it into the squat toilet, then said it seriously.

“…if you like to swim in the sea, add some salt, or if you like something else, add some milk, beer, or orange juice.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the camera switched to Zhuang Qiang, and it was his turn to speak.

As a result, he couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

This smile triggered a chain reaction, and Wang Duoyu and Xia Zhu beside him couldn’t help laughing.

Then the staff in the audience also started laughing.

Qi Jia smiled particularly happily.

Because, just as the inventor actor finished speaking his lines, he saw a ball of gray light coming out of the other person’s body.

Then there was a system prompt sound. After he chose to copy,

Successfully copied the attribute of [Comedy Talent +3] from the opponent.

Suddenly, there was a lot of knowledge that he hadn’t had before, and Qi Jia felt his brain itching.

Recalling the scene just now with Teacher Chen Teng and the others,

Before he picked up the attribute, he thought it was funny when he read it, but he didn’t understand why it was funny.

But now looking back, a word suddenly popped up in his mind: “reversal”.

Funny jokes created by reversals are the easiest for the audience to accept and understand.

Moreover, almost every line in the play paves the way for the next line to be funny.

For example,

The inventor actor said at the beginning that he would take one minute to introduce the Lu Youqi he invented.

When the audience sees this, they may have two subconscious reactions in their minds:

One is that Wang Duoyu agreed to his request, and the other is that he asked the bodyguard to throw him out.

But Teacher Chen Teng refused to do so. He simply gave the other party two minutes to talk about how he got the mental illness.

This 180-degree reversal instantly raised the audience’s emotional value to the maximum.

However, after gaining a better understanding of comedy, he felt that this scene seemed to be missing something.

I always feel like a twist could be added to make the jokes more frequent.

When I was lost in thought,

He heard Director Peng calling him, so he hurried over.

Then I heard him introduce himself to the director.

“Director Yan, this is Qi Jia, the extra who was very popular on TikTok before, and whose acting skills were praised by Director Zhao.”

Director Yan nodded and looked Qi Jia up and down, thinking about how to test his acting skills.

Then I heard Chen Teng coming over and saying.

“Director Yan, is this the actor who auditioned for the role of Dacongming?”

“Yes, how about you come and test his acting skills?”

Director Yan nodded and said with a smile.

Okay~ Chen Teng didn’t hesitate, and circled around Qi Jia twice with a smile.

Then he suddenly had an idea and said.

“Well, if you tell me an original joke that makes me laugh, you’ll pass.”

“Is it okay, Director Yan and Director Peng?”

After saying that, he looked at the two directors again, and when he saw that they both nodded, he looked at Qi Jia.

“No problem, Mr. Shen Teng.”

Qi Jia confidently agreed, and at the same time used the comedy understanding he had just learned in his mind.

I quickly came up with a joke that used “reversal” to deliver a punchline.

He adjusted his facial expression and spoke in a very relaxed and natural tone.

“One day, Sun Wukong was fighting a monster and he lost his golden cudgel. He called out to the God of Land and said, ‘God of Land, where is my golden cudgel?'”

After saying this, it was time for a reversal. His expression suddenly changed and he acted like a humble bootlicker, clasping his hands together, with a crooked mouth and squinting eyes, and spoke in an exaggerated and flattering tone.

“Great Sage, your golden hoop is great because it matches your hairstyle.”

“Hahaha! Oh shit!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Director Yan couldn’t help laughing and fell backwards.

But he didn’t expect that he didn’t sit on the stool firmly and he fell backwards.

The three of them helped him up, but he was still laughing and collapsed on the chair.

He was holding his stomach and twitching, while Teacher Chen Teng and Director Peng were grinning.

This made Qi Jia feel a little embarrassed. He didn’t expect that Director Yan, who looked quite serious, had such a low sense of humor.

“You kid, hahahaha, you are really talented, you are good at acting in comedy.”

Chen Teng smiled and gave him a thumbs up, his eyes full of admiration.

“Any more? One more, hahahaha, I’m dying of laughter.”

Director Peng was also very amused. He held his stomach and smiled as he asked him to say another one.

Qi Jia scratched his head, thought about it, and decided to try another one.

So he adjusted his expression and spoke again.

“One day a scammer called me and said he was from a certain bank. He said my bank card was used to spend 2.8 million US dollars overseas yesterday. He asked me if I made the purchase myself, and I said yes.”

Having said this, he made an embarrassed and aggrieved expression, raised a thumb, and spoke pitifully.

“Then the liar said, hey, you are really good at bragging.”

“Hahaha!!!”

As soon as the words fell, another burst of laughter rang out.

But the difference is that this time it came from behind, and when I turned around,

I found that other actors and staff had come over at some point.

The entire crew stopped working to listen to his jokes!

“Hahaha! Great! I’m dying of laughter! Hey! You’re really good at bragging!”

Teacher Chen Teng was laughing like crazy, and he slapped the table desperately, but it hurt after a few slaps.

So I patted the director’s thigh again,

Director Yan is now in both pain and happiness.
