Chapter 191 The shortest completion
[There will be another update in the evening. 】
Since becoming the starring role, "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" should be the drama that Xu Kun has participated in for the shortest time.
The filming started on February 16th and was completed on March 12th, which took less than a month.
But this is normal. After all, "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" has only 36 episodes in total, but it is divided into 6 units, which means that each unit only has 6 episodes.
The six-episode script has been able to be filmed for so long, which can be regarded as a pursuit of excellence.
However, after the filming, Xu Kun waited for Jiang Yiyan for two more days before returning to the capital with her.
Coming and leaving in such a hurry, Xu Kun recalled on the plane that besides teaching Zhou Yumin a lesson and scoring twice with Cai Yinong, the one who left the most profound impression was Shu Chang's seven-year-old cousin .
This little girl is so spooky and not afraid of people at all.
Just as she was thinking about something, Jiang Yiyan happily handed over a gossip magazine.
Xu Kun took it and took a look. It turned out to be a report about the love triangle in "New Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". The report described Yang Mi as having unrequited love, and was ultimately defeated in the competition with Jiang Yiyan.
However, these descriptions only account for one-third of the space. The remaining two-thirds are mainly to take stock of Xu Kun's scandals in the past two years, and to explore why a professional villain can win the titles of Shuang Feiyan, Ning Jing, Yang Mi, etc. Favored by beauties big and small.
[What are Xu Kun’s ‘strengths’? 】
The word 'long' is also specifically enclosed in quotation marks, which is obviously implying something.
Xu Kun threw the magazine back and asked Jiang Yiyan: "What are your plans next?"
Jiang Yiyan said matter-of-factly: "I don't have any plans. Brother Kun, you have the final say."
This is both her advantage and disadvantage.
Huo Siyan, for example, has her own small thoughts and hopes to have resources in her own hands, or at least have more channels, and is unwilling to become path dependent on Xu Kun.
"Then when we get back, let's go meet Director Liu Haibo and Liu. He recently took on a drama. The heroine's character is somewhat similar to Huang Xiang, both of them are eccentric."
"real?!"
Jiang Yiyan was so happy that she pounced on it and started to chew it, regardless of whether there was anyone around or not.
After finishing the work, he still felt that he still had more to say, so he said seductively in Xu Kun's ear: "How about we go to the bathroom and stay for a while?"
"You should stop following Li Dazui from now on."
Xu Kun pushed her back to her seat. If he had just gotten on the plane, he might have agreed, but it was only half an hour before landing. What was enough for her?
Speaking of Big Mouth Elk, the two have basically stopped contacting each other recently. The reason is that Li Xiaolu and Li Chen have started living together and have plans to get married.
Although Li Xiaolu doesn't care about cheating before marriage, she doesn't even care about cheating after marriage.
But Xu Kun and Li Chen don't have such a big hatred, and Li Chen doesn't have the same sins as Sun Haiying.
So Xu Kun took the initiative to reduce the contact between the two. Li Xiaolu called him to question him at first, but then the contact faded away over time.
Before getting off the plane, Jiang Yiyan whispered to a stewardess, and she didn't know what she said.
After getting off the car, Li Yixiang was already waiting at the door in his Audi A6. Anyway, Li Yixiang and Liu Haibo were quite familiar with each other, so the three of them simply went to the door together.
Liu Haibo is also very high-spirited now. The results of "Four Famous Catchers in the Capital" are pretty good, and "Heavenly Sword Heroes" is even more popular all over the country. As a result, he, a young director born in the 1975s, has become a hot new star. Several film and television companies are rushing to sign a contract with him. This new drama was approached by investors in order to win over him.
After Liu Haibo greeted the three of them to sit down, he handed a copy of the script to Jiang Yiyan and said to Xu Kun, "It's a pity that the investors appointed Su Youpeng as the male lead, otherwise we would be able to cooperate again."
"There will always be opportunities in the future. Besides, the brothers are all in the capital. When do you want to see them?"
Xu Kun doesn't care about this. Rather than starring in a costume drama, he currently hopes to find a direction for transformation.
"Right."
Liu Haibo suddenly remembered something, so he took out his notebook from the study room, opened a novel website and said, "A while ago, Mr. Jia said that you wanted to search for crime-themed scripts or stories, preferably on a larger scale. Isn't that a coincidence? Well, I recently saw a gangster novel on the Internet, which is quite suitable."
The self-made online drama cannot be disclosed to the public, so when Jia Yueting collects scripts and stories, he always uses Xu Kun's name.
"Are you still reading novels online?"
Xu Kun looked at the screen with some curiosity and saw that the title of the novel read "How the Bad Guy Was Made": "Isn't this too straightforward?"
"It's a gimmick. Besides, it's a tribute to "How Steel Was Tempered."
Liu Haibo is also a little embarrassed. As a new director, he is naturally classified as a cultural person. However, most of the cultural people these days are very disdainful towards online novels. If he had not been on good terms with Xu Kun, he would not have considered this Talk things out.
Xu Kun clicked on the first chapter and read it, and found that it was a story about a young man who was bullied and responded to violence with violence out of anger.
This was not the time to read a novel. After browsing the first chapter, Xu Kun returned to the contents page and scrolled directly to the bottom. He found that the content only had more than a hundred chapters, and it was obviously not finished yet.
Faced with Xu Kun's doubts, Liu Haibo waved his hands indifferently and said: "If you want to film it, just cut off the first part. This book becomes more exaggerated as it goes on, and it is not as real and interesting as the first part - this is the case with online novels nowadays. The word count is As soon as I get there, I rush to destroy the sun and kill the beauty, regardless of whether the plot is reasonable or not.”
Xu Kun didn't pay much attention to it. Anyway, it's not like he was going to make a web series right now. If there was a date or no date, he would start with three poles. Even if the novel as a whole was not suitable, he could still extract some good fragments from it.
By the way...
Can the news about my desire to transform be made public like this?
Xu Kun originally thought about asking Liu Heng for help. As the chairman of the Writers' Association, he would definitely be able to help him find a suitable book.
But he had already asked Liu Heng for help in the last episode of "Heavenly Sword Heroes". Xu Kun always felt that it was not appropriate to ask for help this time.
It's better to spread the word first and see if you can use your connections to find a suitable crew or script.
The four of them went to a restaurant together in the evening, where Liu Haibo helped Xu Kun and Jiang Yiyan relax. It was only then that Xu Kun learned the name of the new drama: "The Diaoman Princess".
While eating and drinking, Jiang Yiyan suddenly received a call, so she asked Xu Kun for the key to the A6, and hurried out without knowing what she was doing.
After drinking and eating, Jiang Yiyan drove Xu Kun back to the apartment building and urged him to take a shower.
There were no outsiders at home, and Xu Kun was not used to locking the door when taking a shower. As a result, Jiang Yiyan, dressed as a stewardess, walked in just halfway through the shower.
Thinking of Jiang Yiyan's little actions before getting off the plane, Xu Kun was not very surprised by the scene in front of him. He just smiled and asked: "What is this about today?"
Jiang Yiyan walked up to Xu Kun with a catwalk, turned on the small shower and pointed it at her fair neck, first exposing the flesh on her front and back.
Then she pushed Xu Kun to sit on the toilet and made up nonsense in a serious manner: "Just now we received a notice from the tower that we suspected that you were carrying controlled weapons, so I need to conduct an all-round search on you. You It’s best to cooperate honestly!”
