Chapter 140 Fat Bing’s careful plan
The background of "Nine-tailed Demon Fox" is set in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. As early as the Tang Dynasty, there were similar legendary stories in the works of the Tang Dynasty.
In order to restore the costumes and props of the time, Cao Yang hired several historians specializing in the Sui and Tang Dynasties as consultants.
These people are all leaders in studying the history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Of course, they are more inclined to the social life and clothing etiquette that Cao Yang wanted.
Wu Liyu is a researcher and doctoral supervisor at the Institute of History of the Academy of Social Sciences. Her early research focused on the financial history of the Tang Dynasty and the history of the salt industry. In recent years, she has switched to the study of Dunhuang calligraphy and ritual cultural history of the Tang and Five Dynasties.
Huang Zhengjian is a researcher and doctoral supervisor at the Institute of History of the Academy of Social Sciences. He mainly studies the social life history of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, focusing on the study of food, clothing, housing and transportation in the Tang Dynasty.
Wu Yugui is a researcher at the Institute of History of the Academy of Social Sciences and a doctoral supervisor. He studies the culture, customs, costumes and the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Western Regions in the Tang Dynasty.
Xin Deyong is a researcher at the Institute of History of the Academy of Social Sciences and a doctoral supervisor. He studies transportation and geographical documents of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, as well as boundary geography.
Together with Ye Jintian, these people tried their best to restore the Tao of Confucianism and common sense issues.
As soon as Cao Yang finished discussing with them, he received a call.
After looking at the name of the note, it was a bit unexpected.
"Hello Teacher Cui."
"Hello Director Cao, I take the liberty of calling you."
"It's okay, Teacher Cui, what's the matter?"
Cui Xinqin is also a member of the Class of ’78. She is in the teaching class of the Acting Department. She is very senior and has a good relationship with those in the Class of ’78.
She also brought out Nortel’s famous class of 96 stars.
"Director Cao is like this. A student I once taught, named Huang Xiaoming, said that he had received an invitation to audition for Director Cao's new play. The audition has been going on for some time now, but he has not received the notice yet. He attaches great importance to this time. Opportunity, I have been thinking about it these days, so I asked me to ask about the result.”
Cao Yang smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Teacher Cui. I interviewed several actors at that time. Xiao Ming's acting skills are still good and he has great potential, but he is a bit too young and does not fit the role."
"Okay Director Cao, I understand, thank you, that..."
"Teacher Cui, if you have anything to say, just say it, we are all our own people."
"Director Cao, Xiao Ming has always admired you. Is there any small role in your crew that only has a few lines? Even if it is a walk-on role, he can audition. This can be regarded as fulfilling one of his wishes."
Cui Xinqin said shamelessly.
"Teacher Cui, you said it too late. You should also know a while ago that during the audition at school, I reserved a few roles for current students at the school. Now I no longer have any significant roles."
"That's it. Thank you, Director Cao. I'm so sorry."
"Teacher Cui is so polite."
Cao Yang thought for a moment, then smiled and casually reminded, "Mr. Han from China Film Group has a supporting actor with a pretty good role. I wonder if he has found a suitable candidate."
Who knows which actor China Film Group will find? It’s better to sell Cui Xinqin a favor and let her figure it out on her own. When Huang Xiaoming is not playing the role of a domineering president, he is said to become stronger when he is strong, which shows that his acting skills are still very good.
To be honest, Mr. Han of China Film Group is also from Nortel. He once studied in Nortel's directing training class.
Cui Xinqin said quickly: "Thank you, Director Cao. We are our own people. If you are too polite, I will not say it. Teacher Situ mentioned you to me a while ago, and his tone was full of pride."
"Ha, I'm too busy these days. I haven't seen the teacher for a few days. I just don't want to disappoint the teacher."
"Okay, you're busy, Director Cao. Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
There were not many students in Level 78, and there were not many teachers. We sometimes shared the same teacher in class. It can be said that each teacher taught himself.
After hanging up the phone, Cao Yang shook his head. He had received a lot of calls like this during this period. Of course, no one dared to directly ask Cao Yang for a leading role. They all tentatively asked if they could audition for a small role.
What’s interesting is that it’s all about whether I can “audition” for a small role.
……
Yu Feihong heard the doorbell, put on her pajamas, pulled on her slippers, and opened the door. "Sister, what do you think this is? Hao Lianna's latest essence eye cream. I managed to get it from France for the first time. I specially brought it over for you to try."
"Oh Bingbing, you are so kind to me." Yu Feihong hugged the other person and said very affectionately.
Pang Bing smiled all over her face, "As long as you like it, sister."
Yu Feihong pulled Pang Bing to sit down, and the two of them chatted happily, just like a pair of good best friends.
Fat Bing once played the role of Yu Feihong's maid in "Little Li Fei Dao". At that time, the relationship between the two was not bad, but they were far from being best friends.
But after "Empty Room" helped Yu Feihong win the Venice Best Actress, Pang Bing's mind changed.
She found it difficult to get close to Cao Yang, and based on her own arbitrary speculation, she felt that Yu Feihong must be having an affair with Cao Yang.
So, she changed her mind.
While attending an event, she "accidentally met" Venice Best Actress Yu Feihong, and she took the initiative to recall the scene when she was filming "Little Li Flying Knives."
He also joked that he didn't expect that in just two years, his "master" at the time would now transform into the Venice International Best Actress. Pang Bing sincerely congratulated her and showed a certain amount of envy, showing her true feelings.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Through casual flattery, it took less than half a month for the two to become good friends.
In less than half a year, the two became good best friends who talked about everything.
So sometimes, as long as you can put down your airs and dignity, lower your attitude, and most importantly, be thick-skinned, nothing can't be done, especially when it comes to making friends.
"Sister, didn't Director Cao start a new play? You have a schedule now, why don't you play the heroine?"
As a good best friend who talks about everything, Pang Bing knows about Yu Feihong and Cao Yang.
"Oh, I get upset when I mention this."
Yu Feihong sighed and said: "He actually asked me and wanted me to play the heroine, the hero's wife. I was very happy..."
"Isn't this nice?"
Fat Bing blinked his big eyes, full of curiosity, and buried his envy in his heart without showing it.
"What a good thing."
Yu Feihong snorted, "The other heroine is Gao Yuanyuan."
"What a gimmick it is to play opposite the best actress of Venice and the best actress of Cannes."
Fat Bing suppressed his laughter, held Yu Feihong's arm, pretended to be ignorant, and said, "Sister, you seem unhappy?"
"It's no wonder I'm happy."
Yu Feihong tapped Pang Bing's forehead with her hand, "Just laugh if you want to, don't hold yourself back."
"Haha, sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh." Fat Bing laughed immediately.
"Hmph, that bastard Cao Yang, you think I don't know about this trivial matter between him and Gao Yuanyuan. Do you really think you can hide it from me?"
Yu Feihong snorted again, "You still want me to act opposite her. You don't know the content of the script. Bah, that bastard, whoever likes to act will act. Anyway, I can't see it but keep it in mind."
Then, he spat again and said: "I can't play the heroine, and I can't afford to embarrass that person. That bastard thought I didn't know. If the school hadn't suppressed it secretly, he would have been fired long ago for his scandal. Flying all over the sky ”
Fat Bing glanced at Yu Feihong quietly and thought to himself, not all great directors are like this. If you think he thinks you don't know, maybe this is what he wants you to know.
How could a great young director like him be a fool?
"Sister, how about you arrange for me to join the crew and play a small role? I'll help you keep an eye on Director Cao. Can I let you know if anything happens?"
