Chapter 277 Cameo ( words updated!)
Shi Xia was Shi Xia, and there were many people who had not reserved seats. They came in an endless stream and occupied the aisles and back rows of the venue. This is the appeal of a great writer. Even people who are not majoring in literature still know him, have read his works, are his readers, and want to listen to what he shares on the spot.
Lu Yanhe and Wang Xiao were both responsible for coordination at the scene as Shi Xia's docking personnel.
When Shi Xia came on stage and started speaking, their work came to an end for the time being.
Wang Xiao suddenly winked at Lu Yanhe and signaled Lu Yanhe to look in a certain direction.
Lu Yanhe was stunned and looked in the direction directed by Wang Xiao.
In the second row of the auditorium, Chen Siqi sat there.
Lu Yanhe immediately laughed.
Chen Siqi did not see him, but listened intently to what Shi Xia was telling about childhood past events.
Wang Xiao whispered to Lu Yanhe: "Did Editor Chen come here specifically for Teacher Shi Xia?"
As soon as Lu Yanhe turned his head, he could see the teasing look in Wang Xiao's eyes.
Wang Xiao: "I haven't even said hello to Editor Chen. You have to introduce me to him later. Editor-in-chief of "Jump Up". You are here to share. Editor Chen is not here yet. Let's wait." In a year or two, I have to invite Editor Chen over."
Chen Shiqiu was stunned.
As her counselor, Chen Shiqiu realized that this was definitely not simple when he saw the man next to her again.
When Miao Yue saw that Chen Shiqiu had stopped talking, she said, "Teacher Chen, I'll send him out first."
"Teacher Chen." Lu Yanhe's voice sounded from behind him.
The man who appeared next to Miao Yue today was, of course, Liu Bige, who had been writing the script for "Late Spring" with Miao Yue recently.
Chen Shiqiu's eyes narrowed instantly.
Now that the teacher is out of nowhere, he can't say anything more.
"Miao Yue, which college is this classmate from?" Chen Shiqiu asked with a smile.
"Well, Teacher Chen, I'll send him to the school gate and come back." Miao Yue said.
Lu Yanhe glanced at Wang Xiao helplessly, but did not refuse.
To a certain extent, he and Chen Siqi have a lot in common in terms of career ambition.
When Shi Xia's lecture ended, Chen Shiqiu saw Miao Yue and Liu Bige preparing to go out together, and immediately followed them.
He pretended to be surprised in the corridor and called Miao Yue.
Chen Shiqiu turned around and saw Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi.
Last time, Lu Yanhe said that the man was a producer who wanted to buy the film adaptation rights of one of Miao Yue's novels, which dispelled Chen Shiqiu's suspicion. However, after a few months, he saw him again next to Miao Yue, with Chen Shiqiu as a counselor. The officer's radar immediately started beeping.
Chen Shiqiu asked: "How is your movie going?"
"Then let's go first." Liu Bige glanced at Chen Shiqiu, nodded, and left with Miao Yue.
Chen Shiqiu nodded and looked at Miao Yue, "Miao Yue, are you also involved in the script creation?"
He can stand out in a university like Zhenhua and become the mainstay of the Youth Association. His future is clearly bright.
In order to get a person, you can use all kinds of tricks.
"Well, come back early. I'll check your bed at ten o'clock next time." Chen Shiqiu said anyway.
Liu Bige stretched out his hand to shake hands with Chen Shiqiu.
"You can do whatever you want." Liu Bige smiled faintly.
"Still writing scripts." Liu Bige said.
He didn't expect that this script actually had something to do with Miao Yue.
Miao Yue glanced at Chen Shiqiu in surprise and said, "Teacher Chen, isn't this the producer I told you last time who wanted to adapt my novel into a movie? Liu Bige."
Is it his imagination? Why did he feel that Liu Bige's last look just now seemed a bit like provoking him?
Liu Bige came here today, also for Shi Xia. He asked Miao Yue to make a reservation for him and grabbed a seat.
Chen Siqi, who has been on several hot searches with Lu Yanhe, is now considered a minor celebrity because of his role as the editor-in-chief of "Jump Up".
Chen Shiqiu shook hands with him, looked at him carefully, and said, "Liu...producer? Is it appropriate for me to call you that?"
Although this was his first time meeting Chen Siqi in person, he had seen her photos online before.
Especially someone outside of school who is many years older than Miao Yue.
Under his eyes today, Miao Yue would never be allowed to follow Liu Bige out of school foolishly.
"Hello, Teacher Chen, my name is Liu Bige."
Wang Xiao, a senior, often talks about cheating, and sometimes gives people the illusion that he is "not in shape". But aside from these things, he is a person with outstanding comprehensive qualities in all aspects.
"Yan He, Siqi." Chen Shiqiu greeted them.
He originally wanted to ask Miao Yue, since the script has nothing to do with you, your novel was sold to them and adapted into a movie, and the subsequent events have nothing to do with you, why are you still so close to Liu Bige?
Chen Shiqiu was mainly worried that Miao Yue, a freshman girl, would be deceived by someone in society.
In order to get Lu Yanhe to the Youth Association, Wang Xiao also tried to grind Lu Yanhe over and over again, just like Chen Siqi is grinding against Shixia now.
-
Shi Xia came to give a lecture, and Miao Yue definitely wanted to attend the lecture.
Miao Yue nodded and said, "Yes, Teacher Chen, I am also a screenwriter. I am writing with him."
He smiled, shook his head and said, "How else could you have come back just for me?"
Chen Siqi was still a little surprised, "Does Teacher Chen know me?"
Chen Shiqiu laughed, "Of course I know him, I am a loyal reader of "Jump Up"."
Chen Siqi smiled flattered and greeted him: "Hello, Teacher Chen."
Chen Shiqiu glanced at Lu Yanhe and said, "Where will Siqi stay tonight?"
Chen Siqi said: "I have a flight back to Jiangguang in the evening, and now I have to go to the airport."
Chen Shiqiu looked at her in surprise: "Going back so late?"
"Yes, there is a class at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. I have to rush back to class." Chen Siqi said, "Today I came to see Teacher Shi Xia. I just said hello to him. Now that the task is completed, I have to go back."
Lu Yanhe also said: "Teacher Chen, I want to ask for leave from you tonight. I won't sleep in the dormitory tonight. I will take her to the airport. It will probably be twelve o'clock when she comes back."
Chen Shiqiu nodded, "Okay, no problem."
-
"Teacher Shi Xia has been refusing to let go. Are you okay?" Lu Yanhe asked Chen Siqi.
"Where are we now? I'm ready for a protracted war." Chen Siqi said calmly, "There's no rush."
Lu Yanhe nodded, "I'm still worried that Teacher Shi won't let go and you are a little unhappy."
"How can it be possible? For such a great writer, you have been pestering someone for more than half a year and you expect others to give you the manuscript. How is it possible? Who doesn't cherish their own feathers? Our magazine has only run so few issues." Chen Siqi said , "Liu Jiazhen is willing to give us the manuscript because you and his personal friend and Jiangyin Publishing House have contributed to it. Teacher Baduanjin is willing to give us the manuscript because we need each other. Then Teacher Shi Xia is willing to give us the manuscript." Need anything? It's totally us who need him."
Lu Yanhe asked: "Where is Teacher Baduanjin from? I haven't met him yet. If there is a chance, let's have a meal together."
Chen Siqi said: "He is not in Yuming. When there is an opportunity, I will make arrangements."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
Chen Siqi added: "The program "Idol Era" hopes to place advertisements in three issues of our magazine. Do you think it is appropriate?"
"What do you think?" Lu Yanhe asked.
Chen Siqi thought for a while and said: "To be honest, I don't really want to add advertising pages to the magazine. Now we can make money just by selling our own works, but if we want to further expand the magazine, we still lack funds." Yes, to be honest, I want to further increase the manuscript fee on the current basis. As long as the manuscript fee is high enough, there will be no shortage of good authors to write good manuscripts for us. I want all authors to know that the manuscript fee for "Jump Up" is high. , so that all authors are willing to submit manuscripts to us.”
"Then how about making a separate advertising page and sandwiching it inside the magazine?" Lu Yanhe said, "In this case, it will not affect the binding of the magazine itself. Our magazines will have a plastic cover anyway, right? There is no need to worry about advertising. Pages will fall out.”
Chen Siqi's eyes lit up instantly.
"This is fine."
Lu Yanhe said: "In the future, some brands should also place advertisements. As you said, if we don't accept these advertisements, we will lose a piece of income in vain. With this income, we can not only increase the authors' royalties, but also It can be used for more planning and better content for everyone.”
Chen Siqi said: "My original idea was to let self-media take over the business and let the magazine itself maintain the purity of the content. However, although the development of self-media is good now, there are many competitors. We have missed the development of self-media. To stand out at this time, it takes time and some opportunities. The magazine is favored by many people because it is the only one. The three-issue promotion of "Idol Era" directly gave out 600,000 yuan. Advertising costs are simply not comparable to those of self-media.”
Lu Yanhe: "It's a good thing that magazines can make money. Just don't make too many of them and offend readers. Don't be like some magazines, where one-third of the content is advertising."
Chen Siqi nodded: "Well, in short, I have set a few principles. First of all, all the advertising pages on the back cover are used for our authors to promote and promote their new books. If there is no new book to promote, even if it is empty, it will not be used for advertising. Advertising, and secondly, I want to improve the manuscript space of the magazine and leave as much space as possible to text content.”
"Of course that's good." Lu Yanhe said.
Chen Siqi: "I have signed cooperation agreements with several personal interview reporters. From now on, we will publish an in-depth interview article in every issue."
"Is the interview column finally going online?" Lu Yanhe said.
"Yes, it is too difficult to sign up good interview journalists. Everyone has their own fixed cooperative media." Chen Siqi said, "Although print media has declined, several large online media still have a great need for top interview reporters. of."
"Then how did you sign in this time?" Lu Yanhe asked.
Chen Siqi: "High standards of manuscript fees and transportation fees. Of course, I think a very important reason why they finally agreed is that the past few issues of "Jump Up" have been on the market and the feedback has been very good. It has become the only commercial literary and art magazine. They also I saw the impact, so I agreed.”
Lu Yanhe: "You still have to work hard enough on yourself, so that everyone will be willing to cooperate with us."
Chen Siqi nodded, "Yes, many authors who were previously unwilling to provide us with manuscripts have also relaxed their attitude. Especially the sales of Liujiazhen's new novel are so high that many authors are tempted."
"Brother Jia Zhen's new novel is indeed very well written. Several artist friends around me are following the series. Sure enough, this kind of suspense novel is easier to break barriers and readers of all ages like to read it." Lu Yanhe said.
Chen Siqi rolled his eyes and said immediately: "Then tell me, can we have a column for novels in the magazine, a suspense column, a fairy column, an emotional column, an urban column, and an innovative column to publish novels with corresponding themes? novel."
Lu Yanhe said in surprise: "You mean, open five serials at the same time?"
"Let's start a few at the same time, but this can also build our brand column. Think about it, if the novels serialized in our magazine can become bestsellers after publication, then why are there no authors willing to publish them in our magazine? Serialization." Chen Siqi's eyes lit up as she spoke, even in the dimly lit carriage, they were as bright as light bulbs. Her excitement was clearly visible, "Go and convey to everyone the draft of our "Jump Up" standards to give everyone the impression that the novels serialized in our magazine are all good works."
Lu Yanhe understood Chen Siqi's intention, nodded and said, "If this can be done, of course it would be great."
Chen Siqi: "Now we have received a lot of good manuscripts, and they have all been scheduled for the July issue this year. I am thinking whether to make this year's July issue a summer special issue with richer content. This This special issue can be made into three hundred or even four hundred pages, and at the same time, a new serial novel will be launched in this special issue."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
Generally, one issue of the book is about 150 pages long. If it reaches 300 pages or even 400 pages, it will be enough to make two normal issues.
In this way, more manuscripts can be published without having to keep the authors waiting.
After all, manuscript fees will only be paid after the manuscript is officially used.
-
April is a month of dark waves.
"Jump Up" is advancing various new plans, drafting, reviewing and revising in various brainstorming sessions between Chen Siqi and the editorial department.
While Lu Yanhe was conscientiously completing his various coursework, he occasionally went out to shoot advertisements and magazines. His hot searches almost disappeared and he disappeared from the boiling Internet world.
But he was still very busy with many things. For example, "City Travels" came to him again. Xin Zixing was very enthusiastic about inviting Lu Yanhe back to record the next episode. Lu Yanhe didn't refuse anything because he had time. Nodding, Xin Zixing breathed a sigh of relief.
As for the script of "People on the Road", Jia Long is also advancing, looking for investment and a director. Lu Yanhe and Jia Long have met twice, both of which were discussing how to make this movie.
In "Miss Ning", He Han is still looking for his heroine, while Lu Yanhe still invites teacher He Shuyi to take him to practice lines and study the characters.
For "Late Spring", Liu Bige and Miao Yue had already written the first draft of the script and asked Lu Yanhe to read it first. After Lu Yanhe finished reading, he put forward some opinions of his own, mainly focusing on the character he wanted to play. Liu Bige and Miao Yue used his opinions to make the second round of revisions.
Li Zhenzhen came to contact Lu Yanhe to discuss the recording of the second season of "Young Days".
When Lu Yanhe communicated with Chen Ziyan, the feedback he gave was "If it's the original cast, just continue recording. If it's not the original cast, forget it."
He didn't want to experience another Mengli incident.
These are all jobs related to Lu Yanhe, and among the jobs that have nothing to do with Lu Yanhe, the one that attracts the most attention is actually "The Age of Idols".
Lu Yanhe didn't know what the others were doing, but Chen Ziyan put a lot of time and energy into finding people for the Idol Artist Award, which was temporarily named the Star Award.
To award an award, an award committee must be established to be responsible for many matters. This award committee, in addition to the few people who are taking the lead in this matter, also has a few industry leaders who can smoothen the relationship between the upper and lower levels and promote this award in all aspects.
Because Lu Yanhe has left the idol track, this award has little impact on Lu Yanhe, but it has a great impact on Li Zhibai and Yan Liang.
Zhou Ping'an had heard the news early.
With his character, how could he be willing to see such a big piece of fat that had nothing to do with him when it was about to come out of the pot?
Zhou Pingan immediately found Vice President Ma.
Star Entertainment is one of the largest idol artist management companies in China, with hundreds of idol artists.
If they want to make "Idol Era" and want to win the Star Awards, they cannot avoid Star Entertainment.
If the company Star Entertainment does not cooperate, then the program and awards will be inferior no matter how they are produced.
As a result, as soon as Zhou Ping'an arrived at the door of Vice President Ma's office, he was stopped by his secretary, saying that Chen Ziyan was talking to Vice President Ma inside.
Zhou Pingan's eyes widened.
-
"We at Star Entertainment have been investing a lot of resources in cultivating idol artists. In fact, we are optimistic about the future market of this area. Now, there are so many people who want to create such a program and provide a fixed stage for idol artists. We must also establish such a An award to improve the status and attention of idol artists. If Star Entertainment participates, there will be many benefits. Mr. Ma, you can definitely see it after you have been doing it for so many years. I don’t need to go into details."
Chen Ziyan sat in front of Vice President Ma and said: "This will be a trend. It is not that this award will bring a trend, but that the trend of idol artists has appeared. It depends on who can stand on this trend first and become the first one." Crab eater, Mr. Ma, you must be the first one to eat crab, right?"
She looked at Vice President Ma and Yingying laughed.
……
How to convince someone?
Different people have different methods.
Some people look for other people's weaknesses, and some people look for other people's interests and needs. However, Chen Ziyan's approach is often based on the general trend and environment, finding win-win points for both parties, and understanding them rationally.
Lu Yanhe was also greatly influenced by Chen Ziyan in this aspect.
Lu Yanhe originally thought that Chen Ziyan would be busy with this matter during this period and would put less energy on his side.
Therefore, he didn't go to Chen Ziyan much.
What he didn't expect was that even though Chen Ziyan was so busy, she was still helping him get some acting jobs. At the end of April, she suddenly called him and told him that she had accepted a movie for him, and she had only one guest role. A scene.
Director Wang Zhong's film "Three Mountains".
Wang Zhong is a well-known literary and artistic film director. In the past, every film he made was a frequent visitor to film festivals and film awards.
When Lu Yanhe received Chen Ziyan's call, he went directly to the set without asking anything.
After Lu Yanhe went there, he realized that although it was just one scene, it was quite difficult to act. He had to play a garrulous fortune teller.
Lu Yanhe looked at Wang Zhong at a loss and asked, "Fortune teller?"
Don’t they say that fortune tellers usually look middle-aged or older? How to find him to act?
Wang Zhong said: "We need a very young fortune teller in this play to have a sense of contrast."
"Three Mountains" is about three young people who went hunting for treasure. As a result, they encountered some inexplicable things on the way. To put it simply, they are the embodiment of concepts such as greed, anger, and delusion. The fortune teller played by Lu Yanhe is the three of them. A young man ran into a mountain temple on a rainy night and suddenly encountered it.
This was a costume drama. Lu Yanhe did not see the complete script, only the fragments that Wang Zhong gave him.
"You can understand this fortune teller as a man who is nagging and has an abnormal brain. In the year of famine, there was no way to make a living, so he inherited his father's business and started a fortune teller business." Wang Zhong said, "Qian Don't act realistically. I don't want that. The style of the whole movie is similar to a magical concept. This fortune teller tells three young people their fortunes and predicts that their upcoming journey will be bumpy and full of bloody disasters, which scares the three young people. Yes, it is responsible for such a function."
Lu Yanhe picked up the script on the spot.
In this paragraph, the fortune teller was indeed very talkative. One moment he said that he would charge money, and the next moment he said that for the sake of their chance encounter, he would tell the three young people a fortune for free. In the process of fortune telling, his face became more and more expressionless. Shocked, because the hexagrams of the three young people were more bloody than the last.
The fortune teller was also frightened by the divination, and he felt that he had encountered some serious and evil person, so he rushed out of the temple with a strange scream and disappeared in the heavy rain.
Judging from the script, he is a very facial character.
Lu Yanhe didn't know whether Wang Zhong found him for this guest role, or Chen Ziyan knew that he was looking for someone, so she introduced Lu Yanhe.
However, with Lu Yanhe's current fame, he came to guest star in a movie. In any case, he was actually here to help others.
Wang Zhong was also very polite to Lu Yanhe.
This director has been a director for more than ten years, but his output is not high. He has made five movies in the past, and this is his sixth.
Every movie is a literary film, with the highest box office of only 12 million. This "Three Mountains" is not a commercial film, it is still a story full of speculation and fable.
Lu Yanhe met three young actors, Chen Jiang, Sui Fangran, and Wang Lu.
These three young actors are all a few years older than him, but they are also very young. After chatting with them, I found out that they had just graduated a year or two ago.
It was also their first time to cooperate with Wang Zhong.
It is certainly a rare opportunity for them to be able to star in Wang Zhong's movie for a newcomer who is not well-known. Even if the box office is not high, he is still a well-known director of literary films.
The three of them were quite enthusiastic towards Lu Yanhe, but some of them didn't know how to talk to Lu Yanhe and seemed a little reserved.
At this moment, Lu Yanhe instantly understood what Teacher Shi Xia said, "I am most afraid that others will feel restrained because of me."
Lu Yanhe didn't have the experience to blend in with everyone right away. They sat together and chatted. Suddenly Wang Zhong came to see Lu Yanhe again, and they left first. Wang Zhong said: "I watched a scene you filmed in "Phoenix Terrace", where after your true identity was exposed, you roared and vented your anger at Lang Xia full of resentment. I thought it was quite as exciting as I imagined. Damn, that period was full of hatred and hysteria. What I want here is the feeling of not being able to see the illusion of this world clearly, but still frantically trying to figure out the truth from others. The more you It’s so crazy that it’s unrealistic. The scene that happened is more like a dream of three young people. I especially hope that this scene is like a person’s nightmare. At the end of the scene, everyone wakes up with lingering fears.”
Lu Yanhe nodded and said yes.
He added: "But director, when should I shoot? I need some time to sort it out. My head is messed up right now and I haven't made any preparations."
Wang Zhong asked: "How long do you need?"
Lu Yanhe said: "Give me at least half a day."
"Okay." Wang Zhong said, "I'll find someone to take you to do the styling first. After it's done, we'll talk."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
Wang Zhong left again.
Lu Yanhe was taken to the dressing room for styling.
Fortune teller look.
The styling was done very quickly. He was wearing a tattered long gown and the cloth shoes on his feet were also dusty. They were all specially made.
After Lu Yanhe put it on, he looked in the mirror and, to be honest, it looked like a very bad look.
There were two handfuls of ash on his face, and his hair was deliberately messed up.
It wasn't that Lu Yanhe couldn't accept such a bad image of himself, it just felt like something wasn't right.
A young fortune teller doesn't have to look like a beggar even if he stays in a mountain temple all night, right?
Lu Yanhe asked the person who styled him, "Can this style be changed?"
The stylist shook his head and said, "This has all been decided in advance."
Lu Yanhe took another look at himself in the mirror and still felt something was wrong.
He asked Zou Dong to take a photo of himself and go to Wang Zhong.
"Director, I'm not very satisfied with this look." He said bluntly.
Wang Zhong was stunned and pursed his lips, "I know, this look is a bit ugly. Actually, I -"
"I don't think it's ugly or dirty, it doesn't matter." Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "I just think it doesn't convince me enough."
"Not convinced enough?" Wang Zhong looked at him doubtfully.
Lu Yanhe said: "My look, at first glance, is the designed Mi Tai look. It is very tacky and nothing different. You can see similar looks like this in many movies and TV series."
Wang Zhong pondered for a moment and said, "It is indeed very cliché, so what do you think?"
Lu Yanhe said: "The first thing is this hair. To be honest, this is a young fortune teller. No matter how much the fortune teller talks, he will never make himself look like a beggar. I know you want to show the famine and war years. Next, I, a fortune teller, am also living a precarious life, so everything is terrible. Can we express it in another way? For example, I will wear my hair in a normal bun instead of being so messy and escaping. It seems to be seven or eight years old, but my bun has been bumpy for several days, and it looks fluffy and about to fall apart. For example, there are two smears of dust on my face. It doesn't matter if you put something on my face, but if you rub something on your face, I would subconsciously rub it with my clothes, and I would make the mark thinner and less obvious. Even a beggar would clean up his face."
Wang Zhong looked at Lu Yanhe in silence.
"You said before that this scene should be shot like a nightmare that one person has. If I have been portrayed as a beggar-looking fortune teller in appearance, how can the divination I calculated make that person? Are the three convinced?" Lu Yanhe said, "I am a fortune teller who was forced by the famine to stay overnight in this remote mountain temple at night. I am a little embarrassed, but I am not living in poverty. When I meet the three of them, I feel like a god. He said that the three of them had suffered a bloody disaster, asked them for money, and gave them fortune-telling and cracking methods. This way the logic makes sense. Otherwise, I am a person who has been so miserable myself. Why would I say that we met by chance later, even if they If you don’t give me the money, why don’t I just give it to them?”
Wang Zhong looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise and didn't speak for a long time.
What Lu Yanhe said really surprised Wang Zhong.
Wang Zhong is a director, has filmed five movies, and has worked with many actors. Moreover, many of the actors he collaborated with thought about the scenes themselves, and then told him that there were many actors who liked to think about things and gave Wang Zhong a big headache.
What surprised Wang Zhong about Lu Yanhe was that in just two hours, Lu Yanhe had a basic understanding of this character and established his own basic line about the character with the current fragmentary script. .
Chen Lingling told Wang Zhong that Lu Yanhe is a young man with great acting talent. As long as you break down the scene and explain it clearly to him, he can understand, absorb and express it in the shortest time.
That's why Wang Zhong invited Lu Yanhe over when he suddenly thought of this scene.
To be precise, he first thought of three people meeting a fortune teller in a temple and being frightened by the fortune teller's predictions. He then made a connection between the plot and the story. Then he thought of Lu Yanhe and wrote it according to Lu Yanhe's age. This script.
Because of this, Lu Yanhe's appearance in the film was all improvised and indeed rather rough.
Wang Zhong understood Lu Yanhe's thoughts and agreed with Lu Yanhe's thoughts, saying: "I will change it as you said."
Lu Yanhe added, "One more thing, director, these clothes are too clean."
"Clean?" Wang Zhong was stunned and his eyes fell on Lu Yanhe. The coat on his body was already dusty. Is it still clean?
"It's all dust, with no signs of wear or stains." Lu Yanhe said, "If you think it's okay, I'll take care of it myself."
When Wang Zhong heard this, he glanced at Lu Yanhe in surprise and nodded.
-
"I heard that Wang Zhong asked Lu Yanhe to play a cameo role in his movie."
The crew of "Phoenix Stage", which is still filming, Huang Cheng said to Chen Lingling.
Hearing this, Chen Lingling nodded, "Will Lu Yanhe be a guest star?"
"Chen Ziyan agreed immediately." Huang Cheng smiled, "Because Lu Yanhe usually has to go to class, he will not take leading roles during school. At most, he will take supporting roles with few roles, or even guest appearances. If this news If word spreads, it is estimated that Lu Yanhe will have many more scenes."
An actor who is obviously available in the market to play the leading role is now willing to play a supporting role or a guest role. Which film crew wouldn't want to snatch such an actor?
Chen Lingling said: "It will be good for him to do more dramas. He has talent, but he is very poor in technique. More acting experience can help him quickly find his own performance method."
Huang Cheng asked curiously: "Do you have high expectations for Lu Yanhe?"
"Among the young actors in our drama, he is the most promising one." Chen Lingling said bluntly, "Others' acting is just average, but his acting style is completely different from the academic one. He The guard he plays, in the movies and TV shows of the past ten years, you can't find another guard with such resolute but profound eyes as his. He is a guard, but not just a guard. This kind of complex layering is extremely rare. "
Huang Cheng nodded and said: "Many actors who have become famous cannot escape the shackles of playing themselves, but for many actors, every role is a role and themselves."
"Yeah." Chen Lingling nodded.
She rubbed her temples and said, "Will Lu Yanhe not be able to act in the drama that is being prepared later?"
"Are you talking about "Blood Jade"?" Huang Cheng asked.
Chen Lingling nodded.
"Then I probably can't do it. "Blood Jade" has more than fifty episodes, and Lu Yanhe doesn't have the time to do it."
"It's a pity. Originally, his image, acting skills and character feel were very suitable." Chen Lingling only felt faintly regretful.
At her level, there are very few times when she has to work with a certain actor.
Huang Cheng was surprised.
"Does Lu Yanhe think so highly of you? Even in a drama like "Blood Jade", we planned to let him star in it without even auditioning."
"I have worked with actors who are already very familiar with each other." Chen Lingling said.
-
Lu Yanhe didn't know that he missed a male-led drama directed by Chen Lingling due to shooting time issues.
He was sitting on a bus, following the crew up the mountain.
For this scene in the temple, the crew had to shoot it in real location, so they specially found a temple in the mountains just to shoot this scene tonight.
Lu Yanhe sat in the middle, while Chen Jiang, Sui Fangran and Wang Lu sat in the back row.
The car was twisting and turning on the winding mountain road. After about half an hour, Lu Yanhe felt nauseous, dizzy, and wanted to vomit.
Motion sickness.
When they arrived at their destination, Lu Yanhe got out of the car, his face turned pale and his stomach was churning. It took him a long time to hold back from vomiting.
It was already evening.
It won't look like it's going to rain tonight.
The crew prepared a rain truck.
This area is quite desolate, and it is really a deserted temple.
The temple is not big, so the art team hurried in to set up the place.
This is a flat land halfway up the mountain, with cliffs just a few steps ahead.
Lu Yanhe walked to the edge and looked down into the distance. He could see a mountain village in the distance.
In the evening, as the sun set, the wind blew particularly hard.
After standing for a long time, he suddenly sneezed.
He quickly turned around and entered the temple.
-
Wang Zhong was talking to the photography team about how to set up the camera position.
Lu Yanhe did not go over, but turned around on his own.
The temple is not very big, about the size of two pavilions. There is a porcelain statue about half a meter high. It is difficult to identify the god and Buddha. The incense has been out of service for a long time. There is a layer of ash on the incense burner table in front.
Probably because he was really in this real scene, Lu Yanhe really felt like he was sleeping in a miserable place.
He didn't chat with anyone, and started to find his own state by himself.
There is not much description about this fortune teller in the script, and Wang Zhong didn't say anything either.
Lu Yanhe himself began to construct his biography.
This is what He Shuyi taught him.
"When you play a character, you have a biography, and everything comes from somewhere. No matter how messy it is, it doesn't mess up the character's logic."
Lu Yanhe came to a corner of the temple, faced the wall, and closed his eyes.
-
Chen Jiang, Sui Fangran and Wang Lu were all staying together. Seeing Lu Yanhe's "facing the wall and thinking about his faults", they all looked puzzled and didn't know what he was doing.
Although Lu Yanhe is younger than them, he is much more popular than them.
Therefore, the three of them were nervous in front of Lu Yanhe.
He is a popular star and has just been nominated for the Red River Award. He is not an actor on the same level as them at all.
Even though the three of them are the leading actors, Lu Yanhe is just a guest actor.
"What is he doing?" Sui Fangran asked softly.
Chen Jiang and Wang Lu both shook their heads.
Sui Fangran said: "I don't know how he will act."
Chen Jiang said: "His acting skills are very good. Have you watched "The Golden Age"?"
"After watching it, I can't imagine how he could play this Taoist priest." Wang Lu said.
Sui Fangran: "I don't even know how to act, so the director just gave me a page, and I don't have a few words."
Wang Lu smiled bitterly and said, "This is the director's style. I will probably stay up late tonight."
Chen Jiang sighed: "I'm used to it."
Sui Fangran thought, Lu Yanhe was alone there, why not go say hello and chat with him.
She walked over and came to Lu Yanhe's side. When she saw Lu Yanhe's profile, she was suddenly shocked by the scene in front of her.
Lu Yanhe actually closed his eyes tightly, clenched his jaw, and tears streamed down from the corners of his eyes.
"Are you okay?" Sui Fangran couldn't help but ask, looking at him worriedly.
Lu Yanhe seemed startled. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Sui Fangran with a blank expression.
Sui Fangran: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Everyone saw Lu Yanhe's motion sickness just now.
Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "It's okay."
Sui Fangran pointed to the tears on Lu Yanhe's face, "You, this is it?"
Lu Yanhe was stunned and touched his face, then he realized why Sui Fangran was looking at him so strangely.
"Oh, I was just thinking about why the person I played was a fortune teller, and why he was so talkative and mentally disturbed that I couldn't help but cry." He said.
Sui Fangran's expression became even more confused.
Lu Yanhe didn't tell her in detail. He shook his head and said, "I'll make some more preparations."
Only then did Sui Fangran understand that Lu Yanhe was getting into shape for filming.
She nodded, and went back to find Chen Jiang and Wang Lu with a shocked face, and told them what had just happened.
"It's so scary." Sui Fangran was completely shocked and at a loss. "He was facing the wall by himself, with his eyes closed, crying silently. I was stunned."
The other two people who listened to Sui Fangran's description were also at a loss.
stupid.
At this time, Wang Zhong also saw Lu Yanhe's appearance.
Lu Yanhe didn't cry anymore. He just stayed alone, in a daze, his eyes blank.
This state is a bit "lost" and "frustrated".
Of course, this would not be Lu Yanhe's own state. Wang Zhong has been working hard in the field of literary films for more than ten years. He is well-informed and knows that this is an actor entering the scene and finding his status. Although he was well-informed, he was still a little surprised when he saw Lu Yanhe.
Wang Zhong has persisted in the field of artistic films for so many years, not because he has no chance to direct commercial films, but because he is a very self-centered director who loves his own way of expression.
In fact, his works are not boring literary films. Strictly speaking, they are very authorial.
It's like he suddenly wrote an extra scene while filming, and then he found actors and a place to shoot it temporarily.
How can the general crew be so willful?
But Wang Zhong just wanted to film this scene, and he couldn't do it without filming.
He didn't know how Lu Yanhe designed this scene for him.
He also doesn't want to communicate with the actors in advance. For him, when filming, he often just leaves the camera alone, turns it on, and lets the actors continue acting like this. He especially likes actors to improvise on the spot.
Wang Zhong actually just wrote a rough sketch of this scene.
He just knew very clearly what the scene was going to look like, but he didn't have a detailed idea of what it would look like.
I simply wrote a fragment of the script and gave it to the actors.
The focus of this scene is actually Lu Yanhe.
The rhythm of a normal play must be carried out by Lu Yanhe's character.
Wang Zhong called several actors over.
Lu Yanhe came over as if waking up from a dream, but his condition was still dying.
Wang Zhong: "I have nothing to say about how to perform this scene later. I am not the kind of director who has very specific requirements for how you talk and walk. Chen Jiang, you know my habits, Yan He This is your first time filming a scene with me. After the camera is turned on later, you can act according to your own ideas. Anyway, we will shoot your scene tonight. You can try it however you want. Let's do a few. Do you have any ideas? You can also tell me directly, but there is only one thing. I must capture the feeling I want, that kind of nightmare feeling between reality and nothingness."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
Chen Jiang and the other three also nodded.
Lu Yanhe said: "Director, I made some additions to my character. Do you want to hear it?"
"No need, you just have to figure it out yourself, but I don't want anything extra." Wang Zhong said, "The point of this scene is that you tell the fortune and scare them. It's actually that simple."
Lu Yanhe nodded to express his understanding.
As night fell, the candles were lit one by one, the night shrouded the surroundings, the wind whistled, and the atmosphere suddenly rose.
All the working groups had withdrawn, and only Lu Yanhe was left in the temple.
The shot is to start with three young people coming in from outside.
Lu Yanhe was sitting alone in the temple, with a fire lit in front of him, and the firelight illuminated his face. He was obviously a very young face, but his eyes were dull and his face was numb, as if he was withered and silent, as if even the light of the fire was gone. No light could be awakened in his eyes.
Everyone stood outside the temple and saw such a scene inside from a distance. They didn't say anything to each other, but they all felt horrified in their hearts.
"It's so cold." Sui Fangran stood between the two of them, looking at Lu Yanhe inside the temple, her body shivering, and she whispered.
"It looks scary." Wang Lu said.
Even Wang Zhong was sitting behind the monitor and was shocked by the scene captured by the camera.
