Chapter 379 Wish you a bright future


SX Province, Pingyao County, Humboldt Village.

Now the time has just arrived in January 2005.

The average temperature in Shanxi has reached below zero.

Residents in the city are doing better. There are tall buildings to block the dry and cold wind when they go out.

When I got home, there was a heater to relieve my freezing body.

The village of Humboldt, located on the Great Plains, was much bleaker.

Like most villages after the reform and opening up, the young and middle-aged people here gradually went to coastal cities to "gold rush", and the village gradually became deserted.

Now half of the houses have been abandoned, making the village that originally stood alone on the grassy hillside even more desolate.

The crew of "Bright Sword" shot scenes in this "uninhabited" wilderness.

The temperature in the city is minus three or four degrees Celsius. In the unprotected suburbs, it is at least ten degrees cooler than in the city.

When a light north wind blows, the cold and sandy air is like a knife, going straight into people's sleeves and collars.

In a gray and dilapidated small bungalow, the two main characters of the play, Li Youbin and He Zhengjun, were sitting on a big Kang and exchanging words.

It goes without saying that the two professional veteran actors have good dialogue skills, but in this harsh environment, even their upper and lower teeth were trembling from the cold even during the dialogue.

The crew's budget is too limited.

So much so that the small bungalow used for filming was not rented, but was rented.

The two directors of the crew found some unowned bungalows that had long been deserted, and went to the recycling bin to find some broken tables, chairs, baskets, etc., and decorated the houses a little, so that they could be used as the main indoor scenes.

It saves money, but it hurts the actors!

The regiment leader and the political commissar were shivering in this house with air leakage from all sides. The only heating device was a torn quilt under each person's buttocks.

The hardships of the old Red Army?

You don’t have to act, you just sit in front of the camera. That’s really hard!

As the leading actor, Mr. Li Youbin even had a cold and fever because he was too tired and was exposed to the cool breeze during the continuous filming of outdoor scenes.

I am still acting with a body temperature of over 38 degrees.

Teacher Li is holding the script book now and wants to give himself a big mouth!

“How the hell did I accept this drama!”

In fact, the reason why Teacher Li accepted this drama is very simple.

make money.

He is a well-known actor and a performing artist, but not a star.

The salary of more than 500,000 yuan is already very good for him.

Besides, what many people don’t know is that Teacher Li has housework at this time.

I am divorcing my wife of twenty years.

Divorce requires money even more. Money is needed to buy a house, a car, and start life again.

Before I started studying at home, Mr. Li played many upright young men. His image was a bit single, and his performance had already encountered a bottleneck.

Just like Tang Guoqiang back then, he also wanted to break through.

After seeing such a "bandit" military character, he became interested.

Indeed, the role of Li Yunlong launched the second spring of his career. His net worth and status skyrocketed, and he became the most famous middle-aged actor in the country.

And several of the leading actors in this film were actually recruited by Teacher Li.

After he got the notebook, the crew handed it to Mr. Zhang Guangbei of "Lu Fengxian".

But Teacher Zhang himself was working as a director and producer, filming "Quiet Before Dawn Here", so he refused.

But Zhang Guangbei lives downstairs from Li Youbin!

The two of them met for a walk after dinner, and when they met and chatted, they realized that the other person was the male lead. Teacher Zhang immediately adjusted his schedule and took over the role.

And He Zhengjun, who plays the political commissar, didn't want to play the role at first.

But Zhang Guangbei happened to be his classmate. After knowing that his old classmate was on the crew, teacher He Zhengjun thought that this film was invested by Zhang Guangbei.

I thought to myself that the crew of my old classmates, what do I have to worry about, so they came.

They just tricked one by one and directly brought a bunch of people into the group.

Then...

Now Zhang Guangbei and He Zhengjun are determined to kill Li Youbin.

What a crappy crew!

Teacher Zhang Guangbei's most famous role is naturally Lu Bu in "Three Kingdoms".

He also rejected this role at first.

“How could I play such a drunkard and a womanizer!”

But after learning that Diao Chan was played by Chen Hong.

"Director, do you think I look like a drunkard or a womanizer?"

This is also an old habit. When accepting a film, it depends on the actor.

And his character Chu Yunfei in "Bright Sword" is the commander of the Jinsui Army.

Lü Bu was born in Bingzhou and later served as the governor of Bingzhou.

The location of Bingzhou is the Hetao in Inner Mongolia, Taiyuan in Shanxi, and part of Baoding in Hebei... This place is almost the sphere of influence of the Jinsui Army, and it belongs to reincarnation.

"Old Li, Old He!" The two people who were exchanging words suddenly heard a loud voice coming from outside the house.

Subsequently, the door curtain was opened, and the assistant director walked in carelessly.

If future generations of audiences may recognize it at a glance, this assistant director is the famous "Inequality of the Sword".

Both: Heavenly King Laozi

  • This crappy crew is so poor that even one person has to play a guest role.

    "What are you shouting for? My head hurts." Li Youbin frowned and muttered: "Hurry up and put down the door curtain. It's already cold. When you come in, the wind will make it even colder."

    "It won't be cold in a while!" The assistant director beamed and waved, and a stage manager came into the room carrying two bundles of white things.

    “What is this?”

    “Electric mattress, don’t you think it’s freezing during filming?”

    "Hey, has the director discovered his conscience?" Teacher Li quickly stood up and had someone put the electric blanket under him.

    Plug in the wiring board and turn on the switch. In less than five minutes, a warm current surged into the frozen bodies from bottom to top, making the two actors feel comfortable.

    "Come on, bring it in!" This was not over yet. "Chen Geng" waved his hand again, and several delivery workers stooped into the room, holding a golden copper pot in their hands. .

    "This is..."

    Before the two actors could react, mutton, cabbage, vermicelli, sesame paste, sugar garlic, sauerkraut, charcoal...all the items were being poured out one after another. Sent to the house.

    Not only these things, but also the other main actors, including Chu Yunfei, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, Monk, Yamamoto Kazuki... A large group of old and young men entered the room and gathered around the hot pot that had been lit.

    Not only food, but also wine!

    Seeing five or six bottles of Jiannanchun placed on the table, several elderly men who were already greedy for wine couldn't help but brighten their eyes.

    However, these few people also murmured.

    We are in Shanxi, so we shouldn’t drink Fenjiu.

    Suck yo yo!

    Just when these few people were confused, there were suddenly the sounds of several horse hooves and the snoring of horses outside the house.

    The actors all looked back.

    Through the window, I saw dozens of tall horses being led into the courtyard.

    "This is..." Teacher Li Youbin asked pointing to the window.

    "The horse used for filming the cavalry company scene."

    Mr. Li scratched his head. Our crew has also shot circus scenes before. There were only two thin yellow horses in total, and we had to rely on borrowing positions and camera language to create the illusion of thousands of troops. The effect of the horse is very laborious.

    So many horses suddenly came here.

    Not only that, there were also complaints about the previous meals of the crew. They were poor and cold.

    Now it’s hot pot and good wine...

    Teacher Li raised his head and looked at the assistant director: "Our crew is going to break up, but what can we do?"

    "What can't be done!" The assistant directors sat down together.

    “The crew has secured new investment!”

    “Ah!” All the leading actors looked at each other.

    Can a crew like ours still get investment?

    It would be great if we could barely finish filming, but why would anyone invest money?

    “Yes, this horse, this electric blanket, this hot pot, oh, and also, the crew’s hotel has also been upgraded, giving you all better rooms.”

    Before Even for Teacher Li Youbin, the room he stayed in was not much better than the guest house.

    "By the way, the investor also said, today, no, today, no..."

    The assistant director rummaged through his pocket and took out a note from it.

    "Oh, that's right."

    "All tonight's consumption will be paid for by Young Master Zhang!"

    "What?"

    "Our investor, Mr. Zhang Yuan, have you heard of it?" the assistant director asked with a smile.

    Everyone shook their heads, but Teacher Li Youbin shook his head and was stunned.

    “Hey, I think I’ve heard of it!”

    “When I had dinner with Xuejian before, he seemed to have mentioned such a person.”

    “He’s an actor, he’s quite young. "

    "Yes, young actors!"

    "Look, we old guys still have to take care of us."

    "Eat!"

    While eating and drinking, a mouthful of mutton fell into his stomach. Teacher Li, who was suffering from a high fever, felt that his body felt much better, as if a piece of solid ice had melted.

    “Is this wine also sent by Zhang Yuan?”

    “He is the spokesperson and has an internal price.”

    “I said drink this, it’s a good wine. ”

    "Come!" Teacher Li saw that the crew's conditions had improved and he had hope, so he raised his glass regardless of his illness.

    “Let’s pay tribute to this junior who has never met before!”

    “I wish him a bright future!”

    ……

    Another At one end, Zhang Yuan was having dinner.

    [I received a thank you from Li Youbin, +1 for my script skills and lighting skills! 】

    【Received thanks from Zhang Guangbei, +1 for equestrian skills and +1 for archery skills! 】

    【Received thanks from He Zhengjun, +1 for mechanical design, +1 for drawing! 】

    ..."These old actors are quite conscientious." Zhang Yuan was in a good mood when he saw that his properties were profitable.

    He specifically asked the crew director to submit his name, and sure enough, he got quite a few.

    Zhang Yuan can be regarded as "selling the pot". With the endorsement fees he just received, he only scraped together 4.5 million to invest in this film.

    Just about 30% of the share.

    He started to find a professional lawyer. This share included a series of long-term income such as later copyright and broadcast income.

    This film broke CCTV’s ratings record.

    After the first broadcast became a hit, it was replayed more than 3,000 times, and Chongqing Channel alone replayed it more than 50 times!

    The number of views across all platforms of Later Network has exceeded 1 billion!

    The TV drama copyrights purchased by TV stations are time-limited, usually only one or two years. If they want to rebroadcast them later, they will have to renew the copyright.

    You can imagine how exaggerated the subsequent benefits will be.

    This movie is like a pension insurance, the kind that you can lie down and eat all the time.

    Looking at the entire Chinese TV drama circle, the only TV dramas that can reach this level are "Huanzhugege", "Journey to the West" and other old gods.

    “Zhao Yanmin’s tone seemed to make me think I was a fool.”

    “He will know after the film is broadcast.”

    “After all, those films create myths , most of them were not favored in the early stage."

    He was humming a tune while eating, and the leading actors around him felt that he was in a good mood.

    "I beat the director and made more money. I would be happy too." Zhao Hongfei thought at the side.

    He thought Zhang Yuan was happy because the lunch box business had increased the budget and could make more money.

    It can only be said that he is too small.

    "Are you happy?" Liu Qianqian looked up and asked when she saw him jumping for joy.

    “Yes, you have food, drink, and filming, shouldn’t you be happy.”

    "Yeah." After saying that, she lowered her head.

    "What's wrong with you, your butt is scratched again?"

    "You're the one scratching it!" She retorted plaintively, and then supported her head with one hand.

    “Are you ready for the evening show?”

    “Ready.”

    Zhang Yuan thought that he would film the scene of Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu performing "double cultivation" among flowers in the evening.

    For the filming effect, the crew set up a big carousel for the two of them, similar to the kind that turns dishes in a restaurant.

    Let them practice spinning and turning, just like two roast suckling pigs.

    "What's wrong, you have to take off your clothes, are you shy?"

    "No..." Liu Qianqian's cheeks turned slightly red.

    It's okay to take off your clothes.

    When she played Wang Yuyan, she also exposed her shoulders. This time, she was completely nude, but she would wear a tube top.

    After all, she had stayed in the Lighthouse Country. She had seen a lot of things like tube tops, so she didn’t feel like there was anything to be ashamed of.

    It is a little psychological pressure to dress like this in front of Zhang Yuan.

    "It's okay, let's be fair, you won't suffer."

    "Hmph!"

    This is what she is afraid of, and she is a little unsure.

    But that was not what she was worried about.

    After eating, she followed Zhang Yuan.

    “Why are you looking for me?”

    "Would you...spit?"

    After hearing this, Zhang Yuan cleared his throat and then exerted force.

    Pop!

    A wet mark suddenly appeared on the wall five or six meters away.

    “Is this what you’re talking about?” Zhang Yuan was curious, wondering why a very civilized girl like her was asking this.

    "That's not vomiting, that's squirting!" Liu Qianqian puffed up her cheeks like an octopus.

    At the same time, he looked at the mark a few meters away.

    "He is so strong that he can spit farther than the average person!"

    "Can you do it?"

    "Why do you ask?"< br>


    She then spoke in detail.

    According to the plot, their dual cultivator scene will be interrupted by Zhen Zhibing and Zhao Zhijing who come to take a peek, causing Xiao Longnu to become obsessed.

    In the original work, the little dragon girl just vomited blood.

    And Yu Min wanted to make her bleed in order to look good!

    The kind that spits a big mouthful into the sky.

    According to the design, she would suddenly raise her head and spit out a mouthful of old blood into the sky.

    The blood foam sparkles under the fill light and falls on the vegetation as brightly as fire.

    After listening to this, Zhang Yuan felt it was exaggerated, but he also agreed with Yu Min’s understanding of the footage.

    After all, he is a videographer, so he is very good at creating such a poignant atmosphere.

    It can indeed make the injury of Xiao Longnu look better.

    But as for Liu Qianqian, she was well protected by her mother since she was a child, and she also learned the arts that can lead to elegance.

    She really doesn’t know how to squirt.

    She tried it on herself in the hotel room.

    As a result, the front of the vest was soaked.

    It’s like Parkinson’s eating, it’s all over your body.

    Liu Xiaoli is not much stronger, she can only spray a small jet of water, just like Squirtle.

    But it can’t achieve the effect of the goddess scattering flowers.

    Liu Qianqian then thought that if there was anyone around her who knew such "miscellaneous" skills, it would be Zhang Yuan.

    “Want to learn?”

    “Yeah.” The girl looked expectantly.

    "Call Master first."

    The girl immediately became unhappy.

    She already loves to mess with her seniority, and now she has to suffer a loss, so naturally she is not happy.

    "It's okay if you don't shout. I can teach you mouth to mouth." Zhang Yuan said and led her to a sparsely populated hillside.

    "I asked you to do serious things, and I am very serious about it." Sissi took a step or two back.

    "Hey, I get it, she has no interest in life at all." Zhang Yuan knew that she was doing it for filming, so of course he was happy to help.

    Take out a bottle of water, hold it in your mouth, and then take a sip of Qi from your Dantian.

    Poof!

    That’s called a sky full of stars and rain everywhere.

    That is to say, it is night now. If there is sunshine during the day, a rainbow will come out of this mouthful.

    "Wow, great, great!" Liu Qianqian clapped her hands and was stunned.

    Look, a girl is easy to deceive. Even spitting water can make her eyes shine.

    In ten years, even if Zhang Yuan acts like a dragon sucking water, she will... well, according to her temperament, she should still be able to clap her hands.

    “Come and try.” Zhang Yuan opened another bottle of water for her.

    “Bah!”

    "Gulu gulu!"

    "Bah!"

    "Bah!"

    Zhang Yuan watched her play with half a bottle of water, and then nodded.

    “Let’s go home and change clothes.”

    My chest is wet again.

    "Hehehe..."

    "You still have the nerve to laugh!" Zhang Yuanyuan replied weakly and happily.

    “Tell me, do we look like the Titanic?”

    “It was the scene where Jack taught Rose to spit on the deck.” Under the night sky, Liu Qianqian suddenly felt Somewhat romantic.

    "Yes." Zhang Yuan agreed: "I am the receptionist, and you are the shredded meat."

    "It suits our personalities very well."

    "Stop talking nonsense and salivating, Take a deep breath."

    "Pump up your cheeks, listen to my command, and use your strength!"

    "One, two, three, let's go!"

    While Zhang Yuan was directing, he raised his hands and placed them next to her cheeks. When the command came, he squeezed hard.

    “Poof!”

    This time with external help, it sprayed out several meters away.

    “Wow, it’s successful!”

    [Received a thank you from Liu Qianqian, temperament +1! 】

    "Remember this feeling and try it a few more times yourself." Zhang Yuan said, taking the opportunity to rub her face a few times.

    Thin, smooth and tender, it feels thousands of times better than the highest grade leather.

    "Okay, I'll do it myself."

    Try again now, it's really much better.

    She soon found the trick.

    Just like how she usually learns other things, she gets started very quickly, which is a talent.

    But the disadvantage is that the depth ability is not strong, this is a flaw.

    She was having fun, and Zhang Yuan was watching with great interest.

    A high-pitched exclamation came from the bottom of the small cliff.

    “Ah, who spit and made my hair wet? It’s so disgusting!” (End of Chapter)
