Chapter 30 Dinner
Although my crotch is not wet with sweat in winter, the mountain wind blowing me out of the mine makes me feel chilly.
The van's heater didn't work very well, but thanks to Li Yang's experience, he prepared a few old sheets in advance. Several people on the road were wrapped up like Arab sheikhs, so at least they didn't suffer from the cold.
After the torturous journey, Xu Kun's muscles were tough, and he was a little tired when he arrived at the hotel - Baoqiang was in the best condition because he had been visiting up there.
As the leading actors, Xu Kun and Bao Qiang lived in a double room, Li Yixiang lived in a room with the assistant director, and Li Yang lived in a room with the cameraman.
After entering the house, Baoqiang made a fuss and said, "Brother Kun, look, look, there is a toilet in this house!"
"You old-fashioned guy, this is called a bathroom."
Xu Kun stripped naked, took a shower in the bathroom, put on clean clothes, and immediately returned to a lively state.
"Baoqiang, do you want to take a shower first or eat first?"
"Let's eat first."
"Okay, let's ask the director."
Xu Kun took Baoqiang to the next door and found that Li Yang was still taking a bath in the bathroom.
They are both grown men and there is nothing to be embarrassed about. He asked at the door: "Director Li, do you have any plans for the evening?"
"have!"
Li Yang replied inside: "The leader of the county broadcasting bureau will meet us tonight. You, Baoqiang, Yixiang, and Lao Zhao, we will go there together."
Lao Zhao refers to the assistant director.
"What kind of arrangement is this?"
Xu Kun was reluctant: "How can I enjoy eating at the same table with those people?"
To keep one's strength is to shrink one's neck.
"After all, he is a local snake."
The cameraman, who had finished washing and changed his clothes, sat on the bed and wiped the lens while saying: "We don't expect them to help. Just go over and deal with it and don't cause trouble to the crew."
Of course Xu Kun also understands the ways of the world, but he really doesn't want to socialize.
When Li Yang came out of the shower, he said with a smile on his face: "Director Li, you are the director and the boss of the crew, so you have full authority to represent us."
"I was told that I would like to meet some of the leading actors."
Li Yang wiped his head with a towel and said in the tone of a kidnapper: "I'm going to ask the county broadcasting bureau for help with finding some local actresses. Don't you want to go and check it yourself?"
"this……"
Xu Kun's smile froze, and then he sighed: "Well, in order to successfully film our drama, I can only devote myself to art."
Seeing his funny expression, Li Yang couldn't help laughing.
It's a pity that this method has no effect on Li Yixiang. No matter how many of them talked about it, Li Yixiang remained unmoved.
In the end, Li Yang had no choice but to take Xu Kun, Bao Qiang, and deputy director Zhao to the appointment.
The four of them drove a van to the door of a well-known local restaurant. As soon as they got out of the van, they saw a middle-aged man who looked like a leader coming out with four or five young people.
One of the girls with a big mouth had obviously met Li Yang before, and immediately stepped forward to introduce both parties. The middle-aged leader was the director of the radio drama.
Although the director of the county radio drama was not a big shot for Li Yang, who had lived in the capital for a long time, Li Yang was still flattered by the fact that he personally greeted him at the gate.
After the two parties exchanged polite greetings, they arrived at the best private room in the hotel, only to see two people sitting at the main seat and the lower seat respectively. One was a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance, and the other was a fair-faced man of fifteen or sixteen years old. little girl.
Li Yang couldn't help being stunned when he saw this, and the broadcast director hurriedly introduced: "This is County Magistrate Zhou of our county. He attaches great importance to the crew of "Shenmu" coming to our county to shoot, so he deliberately took time out of his busy schedule... …”
The blind shaft was recently changed. When Li Yang came to inspect, the banner was the crew of "Sacred Tree".
"It's the deputy county magistrate."
The county magistrate Zhou interrupted his official talk with a smile and said with a smile: "Actually, I came here this time with the intention of pretending to be a public servant. First, there are some things in the county, and I hope to make an agreement with the crew; secondly, what about..."
As he said that, he pointed at the girl: "My daughter played music in elementary school, and in the past two years, she suddenly became interested in being an actress. No, it happened that our crew was coming over to film a movie, so I was wondering if I could invite some of the crew A professional actor can talk to her so that she can figure out which path she should take in the future."
Oops! Xu Kun and Li Yang secretly screamed in their hearts at the same time. If they had known that this would happen, they would have carried Li Yixiang.
But now that I have arrived, I can only bite the bullet and sit down.
This week, the county magistrate was obviously a slave to his daughter. When he sat down, he did not talk about official business first. He opened his palms and said to the three of them: "Are these the leading actors in the movie?"
He said it was "a few people", but in fact he was mainly looking at Xu Kun.
Not to mention Bao Qiang's dark baby face, Assistant Director Zhao's majestic appearance can only be described in one word. From the looks of it, Xu Kun looks pretty decent.
"Heh, heh heh..."
Li Yang laughed twice and said: "The person next to me is the assistant director of the crew, and the other two are the leading actors in the movie. One is the male protagonist of the show, and the other is the villain with the most important role."
After hearing this, County Magistrate Zhou glanced back and forth between Xu Kun and Bao Qiang, and asked doubtfully: "I'm sorry for my blindness, but I don't know which one is the leading actor?"
In his opinion, the dark Hanhan was definitely not a villain, but he didn't look like the protagonist at all.
"Actually, our drama is in the style of crime reality..."
Upon seeing this, Li Yang quickly explained briefly to County Magistrate Zhou.
I heard that this drama was based on something that happened in this province two years ago. The little girl on the side had her eyes widened in shock and her mouth was open for a long time.
"For a drama like ours, firstly, when looking for actors, they must fit the character's image, and secondly, they must have enough acting skills to control the role. If you have to find handsome men and beautiful women to film, the filming will not be the same."
After listening to Li Yang's introduction to the crew, County Magistrate Zhou nodded and said: "I understand, our show is here to win awards."
This is really hitting the nail on the head, otherwise I would say he is a leader.
Li Yang said nonchalantly: "Actually, the box office is also quite important."
Anyone who heard what he said would know that he had a guilty conscience.
County Magistrate Zhou nodded and said softly to his daughter: "Qiqi, if you want to know anything about actors, you can ask these two elder brothers for advice."
Seeing that all eyes were focused on her because of these words, Zhou Qiqi, although she was not too frightened, was still embarrassed to ask about celebrity gossip.
So she poked the beauty mark on her lip with her finger, thought about it seriously for a while, and then asked curiously: "What are the general requirements to be admitted to the China National Theater or Beijing Film Academy?"
With just one sentence, Baoqiang was so embarrassed that he almost got under the table.
Xu Kun also felt like he was hit by an arrow in the face, but fortunately he was thick-skinned enough, and he laughed and said: "Both of us are Yehuchan, but I do know a little bit about the process of applying for China National Theater and Beijing Film Academy."
With that said, he briefly introduced to the little girl what he learned in the performance training class.
Bao Qiang was responsible for filling in the missing details. Xu Kun only learned about it in passing, but he secretly collected a lot of relevant information.
The two of them dared to say that the other had something to say, and finally managed to get past this level of confusion.
County Magistrate Zhou nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "So, our Qiqi's vocals and appearance are definitely fine, but if we want to pass the exam, we still need to work hard on our body and performance."
Although these words have a bit of a daughter-slave filter, Zhou Qiqi was later madly pursued by Fang Renming, and she was also recognized by Cheng Long, so her appearance and figure are naturally not much different.
Of course, the most classic thing is that the girl turned her back and openly confessed her love to Hu Ge.
Zhou Qiqi didn't know what she thought of, she looked slightly sad, and then asked Xu Kun for advice: "Brother Xu, since you are not a major, why did you choose to be an actor?"
What else could be the reason? Of course, it was because he met Bao Qiang, a potential stock, and he was greedy for being famous because there were so many beauties in the entertainment industry.
However, in front of the little girl's parents, Xu Kun did not dare to tell the truth. He could only say nonsense seriously: "Probably in order to experience more different lives, every time through hard work, through imagination, through copying, through skills , and when I create a character that is completely different from myself, I will feel a sense of fulfillment in creating and owning a new life.”
Zhou Qiqi was obviously frightened by these words and couldn't help but ask: "Brother Xu, what roles have you played..."
"Like in this movie."
Xu Kun hurriedly interrupted her. If she wanted to tell her the whole story, it would be a fatal blow.
Without giving Zhou Qiqi a chance to interrupt, Xu Kun quickly said: "In order to play the murderous villain in the play, I specially designed a new image, just like this -"
As he spoke, his thick eyebrows were raised upwards, and his ferocious and cold white eyes were full of fire at the little girl.
