Leaving Bao Qiang on the set to continue his role as a martial artist, Xu Kun went home and simply washed up, then practiced facial expression control in the mirror while waiting for Li Yixiang to contact him.
At around six o'clock, a rhythmic sound of banging against the wall suddenly came from next door. Xu Kun then realized that it was Sunday - the new tenants next door were a couple in their junior year. They were usually in school and only on Sundays. Come here to live a world of two.
I don’t know what the boy’s major is, but his physical strength is far behind that of the civil engineering guy. Xu Kun was still hesitating whether to turn on the TV to cover up, but the situation next door was already calm.
After a while, Li Yixiang also called, and the dinner was scheduled at a Hunan restaurant outside the North Third Ring Road.
When Xu Kun arrived, the sun had just set and the Hunan restaurant was crowded and lively.
He didn't rush in. Instead, he put a stack of rolled newspapers under his arm, then unzipped his coat, revealing the low-cut vest underneath.
The bulging muscles protruded from his collar, and he had white eyes like those of a venomous snake. No matter how crowded and narrow the room was, he walked domineeringly and as if there was no one around him.
The long newspaper tucked under his arm, coupled with the disapproving step, seemed to have stepped on the silence button, and the restaurant that was originally bustling with people suddenly fell silent.
Xu Kun stood still in the middle of the hall, his cold eyes scanning the whole room, as if pouring cold water on everyone's heads.
"Kun'er, it's over here!"
Li Yixiang stood up from the corner and waved to Xu Kun.
Xu Kun swayed over and threw the newspaper on the table. He cupped his hands at the middle-aged man sitting on the main seat and said, "Director Gao, do you think I am okay with this attitude?"
As he spoke, his eyebrows returned to their ordinary state.
Before Gao Qunshu could speak, the little boy next to him smiled and said, "Okay, brother, when you walked in with the newspaper under your arm just now, I thought you were someone seeking revenge."
As he said that, he reached out to pull open the newspapers on the table. When he found that they were just a few newspapers, he grinned again with white teeth.
Gao Qunshu also smiled and said: "Not bad, really good. The most important thing is to be able to release and retract. I think the person Yixiang approves of will definitely be good."
Xu Kun laughed and said: "Brother Li always likes to praise me outside. He is probably afraid that I will tell him if he encounters a mining accident and almost wets his pants."
"Go away, that's just to protect your strength!"
Li Yixiang laughed and cursed, pointed at Xu Kun and introduced to Gao Qunshu: "Xu Kun, my brother who almost died in the same cave."
Everyone was happy again, and the atmosphere in the restaurant became lively again.
Gao Qunshu then introduced the bald man next to him and the small-eyed man diagonally across from him. The bald man's name is Shi Zhaoqi, who plays the male lead in this drama, Xu Guoqing, the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau.
The one with small eyes is Sun Honglei, who plays the role of Liu Huaqiang, the villain of this drama.
Xu Kun had no impression of Shi Zhaoqi, but Sun Honglei was different. Even in the chat room, Brother Honglei's name was well-known.
After initial contact, they all have cheerful and outgoing personalities, and they don't have any airs when facing Xu Kun, a little brother.
After drinking for three rounds, Gao Qunshu took the initiative to bring up the business: "I thought about it, the role that is most suitable for you, Xiao Xu, is Liu Huaqiang's little Han Yueping. This role has a lot of roles, and he has followed Liu Huaqiang. The domineering scenes also include more life-like scenes. In the end, it was because of his confession that Liu Huaqiang was completely defeated. "
When Li Yixiang heard this, he immediately gave Xu Kun a wink, indicating that he could take the role.
Among the brothers around Liu Huaqiang, there are only two who have relatively heavy roles and have room for performance. One is the killer Jin Bao - Li Yixiang has already taken this role, and the other is Han Yueping.
But Xu Kun hesitated for a moment, then said with a smile: "Director Gao, can I read the script first?"
Gao Qunshu didn't mind at all. He smiled and said, "How about you get along with Yixiang." After saying that, he took out a script from the briefcase leaning on his back and handed it to him. Xu Kun.
Xu Kun took it with both hands and couldn't wait to open it. He went through it briefly first, mainly looking for the fragments that will be talked about by later generations, such as: Liu Huaqiang buys watermelon; Why don't you call yourself a young man in anger? Fight me, you have this Strength?
In the first two clips, Liu Huaqiang was the main standout, and there was only one scene with the watermelon seller. Song Laohu was an old man who couldn't change his age, but Feng Biao knelt down and shouted "Master", which made Xu Kun's eyes light up. .
According to the timeline, Feng Biao's domineering side was leaked when he first appeared, his obedient surrender when he was attacked by Liu Huaqiang, his gratification of being paid to chop Liu Huawen to pieces, and after hearing that Liu Huaqiang shot Wu Tianhou, he ran around all night wearing red underwear. Lu's panic also runs through the entire TV series.
Although the plot of giving in is a bit disappointing, isn't this acting? As long as it can shine!
So Xu Kun raised his head and asked tentatively: "Director Gao, is this Feng Biao's prototype Sun XX?"
Hearing his question, Gao Qunshu immediately became interested: "Why, do you know this person?"
"I've heard of it."
Xu Kun pointed at the script and said: "It is said that Sun XX had his legs broken by Zhang XX's gunman, leaving him with a lifelong disability. Later, when Zhang XX could not be found, he chopped his brother into a vegetative state. This is the same as what is said in our script. Feng Biao is generally right."
After hearing this, Gao Qunshu nodded first, and then shook his head: "Are you interested in the role of Feng Biao? It's a pity that I'm not the right age. Otherwise, with your aura when you entered the door, you would be quite suitable."
When Xu Kun heard that it was the age issue again, he immediately became energetic. Just as he was thinking of repeating his old trick, he was kicked by Li Yixiang under the table.
This is obviously a warning to him not to compete for the role of Feng Biao.
Xu Kun hesitated for a moment, feeling that Brother Li would definitely not cheat him, so he could only say regretfully: "That's such a pity - Director Gao, let me watch Han Yueping's plot again."
After that, he went through Han Yueping's plot again.
This role can almost be regarded as Liu Huaqiang's deputy. Although it is not as impactful as Feng Biao, it has more scenes than Feng Biao and has a lot of room for performance.
It's just that it was too fast and too sudden in the end. If only I could simply modify it...
Xu Kun returned the script with both hands, then held up the wine glass and said, "Thank you, Director Gao, for giving me this opportunity. I'll do it, you can do whatever you want."
Gao Qunshu raised his cup and clinked it with him, then reminded: "Our crew will go to Shishi at the beginning of next month, so you have to free up your schedule in advance."
This is considered a finalized role.
Then there was the issue of remuneration. This time Gao Qunshu was a little hesitant and no longer as cheerful as before.
Li Yixiang took the initiative to explain that due to the sensitive subject matter, Gao Qunshu failed to attract investment, so this time he invested all his property in it, so he was somewhat stretched.
Not to mention that Xu Kun came here just for the fame of "Conquest". Even if he didn't get this role, for Li Yixiang's sake, he certainly wouldn't have made it difficult for Gao Qunshu. He immediately said that the salary was not important, as long as the film was good.
This time, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves even more, and the meal lasted until 11 o'clock in the evening.
After the group broke up, Xu Kun pulled Li Yixiang and asked why he stopped him from fighting for Feng Biao.
Li Yixiang explained: "In fact, someone has already volunteered for the role of Feng Biao, but the director has not yet made up his mind to use him."
Xu Kun asked curiously: "Then I'll try my best, wouldn't it be appropriate?"
"The problem is that the person who recommended himself is the producer of our show."
