Chapter 348 Joining the gang
No wonder I met Liu Xiaoli at the Hundred Flowers Awards. It turns out that the Hundred Flowers Awards also invited Liu Yifei this year, but she was much inferior to the Golden Eagle Goddess. She was only responsible for singing and warming up the audience.
Of course, Liu Yifei, who was dancing on the stage in a full leather skirt, was still the focus of the evening party - mainly because the evening party was too calm.
So not surprisingly, Liu Yifei dominated the headlines the next day. The major newspapers mainly boasted about her stunning appearance at the Golden Eagle Awards, while the tabloids were obsessed with the question of whether she exposed herself when she kicked her thigh at the Hundred Flowers Awards.
Tsk~
It was obvious that he was wearing safety pants. Xu Kun, who was sitting in the second row at the time, even asked Baoqiang next to him - Baoqiang had a lower body and could see more clearly.
The news that Xu Kun won the renamed "Best Actor Award" is usually placed as the second headline on the entertainment front page, and the accompanying pictures are mostly a contrast between Li Youbin holding the trophy with high spirits and Xu Kun hanging his head sadly in the audience.
I don't know which unscrupulous reporter took this photo. At that time, Xu Kun was clearly communicating with the organizing committee to confirm whether there was any early withdrawal.
Because he realized it was a conspiracy, he couldn't help but frown and ponder, but the result was reported in the newspaper as a person who hung his head in dismay because of failure.
However, this was not the first time that the media fabricated stories, and Xu Kun did not have the time to argue with them. After flying back to Shenyang, he returned to the intense filming.
Although Feng Xiaogang did not say it explicitly, everyone can see that since the new assassination case was launched, the pressure he has been under has increased a bit. Whenever he encounters something unpleasant, he can't help but curse.
Deng Chao, who returned to the crew, naturally became the main target of criticism.
Fortunately, although Deng Chao was a little proud at ordinary times, he could also put down his pride when it was necessary. In the end, with the help of Wang Zhonglei's favoritism, he was able to ease the relationship with Feng Xiaogang.
Under this kind of pressure, both on and off the stage seemed to have become a battlefield. The shooting progress was indeed greatly improved, but everyone's physical and mental fatigue was also accumulating and increasing doubly.
By mid-November, Zhang Hanyu let out a hoarse cry: "…Why are you pretending to be a living Buddha? The instructor has been blown into two pieces!"
The melee drama in which the Ninth Company was ambushed finally came to an end.
After Feng Xiaogang confirmed that the shot was correct, everyone felt as if their bones and muscles were pulled out, and some people even collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, Xu Kun went up and pulled them up one by one, urging them, "Everyone, hurry up and change into clean clothes and drink some hot water, otherwise the more you relax, the more likely you will get a fever and catch a cold."
By the time everyone was rushing into the changing tent, the Kuomintang and Communist armies were mixed together.
Xu Kun also came to Feng Xiaogang with his hands in his pockets, took the hot tea handed to him by Qin Lan, unscrewed the bottle and took a few sips carefully. After his stomach was full, he asked Feng Xiaogang, "Uncle Feng, should we just take a break today, or..."
"Take a break first."
Feng Xiaogang took off his fur hat, scratched his mottled forehead, and asked, "Can you still bear it? Do you want to wait for two days before continuing to shoot?"
"Okay."
Xu Kun touched the crack on his lips and said, "While this energy is still there, I think it's a good idea to film the scene where they desperately dig coal in the millet field."
"Okay, you young people are really hardworking."
Feng Xiaogang has been very tired these days and became listless after speaking a few words.
When Guo Xiaojun heard the conversation between the two, he stepped forward to ask whether they should load the video equipment into the car first. Feng Xiaogang was too lazy to speak, waved his hand weakly, then stood up with the help of the chair and walked towards the nanny car.
“Fame is tiring.”
Xu Kun looked at his back and shook his head slightly, then went into the tent and found Ren Yan who was changing clothes. He made an appointment with him to get together in the evening, which could be considered as a farewell to him in advance.
Ren Yan's scenes were finished today, but he was really exhausted, so he planned to rest in Shenyang for two days before leaving.
Compared to others, Xu Kun's condition is much better. In addition to his excellent physical fitness, it is mainly because Qin Lan took good care of him after joining the crew.
Before doing any work every day, Qin Lan would give him a massage. Not only did he learn how to step on his back, he also bought a set of vacuum cupping jars.
Wait until we get back to the hotel in the city.
Feng Xiaogang had already fallen asleep in the nanny car, but there were several assistant directors on the crew, so Xu Kun didn't need to be responsible for cleaning up the mess.
After entering Xu Kun's guest room, Qin Lan went to the bathroom to run water as if he was familiar with it - there was a large bathtub in the suite. After Xu Kun checked in, he specially asked someone to do a comprehensive cleaning. Every time he returned to the hotel these days, the first thing he did was to run water and take a bath.
Xu Kun threw himself on the sofa, closed his eyes and relaxed for a long time before he took out a pen and paper to summarize his experience.
No matter how tired he is these days, he always makes a summary of his experience when he comes home at night. Sometimes it is about the shortcomings in his performance, sometimes it is the new knowledge learned in the crew, and sometimes it is an accidental flash of inspiration.
Today I am mainly thinking about the plot of killing prisoners.
Perhaps the protagonist of "Operation Kunpeng" can be set as a former soldier who killed a captured drug lord in anger because of the sacrifice of his brothers. This plot is a bit cliché, but Xu Kun mainly wants to win in sensory stimulation, not to seek novelty or change.
But Xu Kun had just started writing in the notebook when he suddenly heard the doorbell ring. Xu Kun thought it was Deng Chao - everyone else must be busy taking a shower at this time, and he was the only one who had been staying in the hotel studying the script.
As a result, when he opened the door and took a look, it was Chen Shu outside.
"How did you come?"
Xu Kun frowned and subconsciously glanced towards the bathroom.
"I can't come, or I shouldn't come?"
Chen Shu's face was as gloomy as water, no longer as charming as before. Without waiting for Xu Kun to move aside, she squeezed into the room sideways and sat directly on the bed, habitually lifting up her two black stockings.
Then she hugged her shoulders and asked coldly, "Director Xu, you are not deliberately setting up a trap to replace me so that you can take the opportunity to promote your own woman?!"
"What do you mean?"
"What is your relationship with Qin Lan? It's not hard to find out in the circle!"
Chen Shu glared at Xu Kun fiercely with her charming eyes. She felt extremely aggrieved that Xu Kun had taken advantage of her for several nights for free, but in the end she had to leave the crew sadly.
But she suddenly heard the day before yesterday that the person who replaced her was none other than Qin Lan, who had an affair with Xu Kun in the Teddy Sisters Group. She didn't think there was anything wrong with her performance in the first place, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt that there was something fishy going on!
Xu Kun tried to explain: "Qin Lan is indeed more suitable for this role than you..."
"Haha~"
"If you don't believe me, then I can't help it."
"I don't need you to think of anything!"
Chen Shu said in a deep voice: "I just want you to give me an explanation, Director Xu. After all, I have been with you for several nights and even broke the bed. You can't just forget about it, right?!"
At this moment, the sound of water in the bathroom suddenly stopped. Qin Lan pushed open the door and said, "The water is ready. You..."
Halfway through his speech, he met Chen Shu's eyes.
Chen Shu sat up straight in a panic and subconsciously wanted to stand up, but he felt that this would weaken his momentum, so he simply snorted coldly: "Humph, what else is there to say now?!"
Qin Lan hesitated for a moment, walked out of the bathroom on his own initiative, and was about to speak to Chen Shu, but was stopped by Xu Kun who raised his hand.
"If you want something, just speak frankly."
"I want the leading lady in your next play!"
"impossible."
Xu Kun flatly refused: "The new play I'm planning doesn't even have a female lead. I can't change the script framework just because of you, right?"
"Then the next play!"
"The heroine of Assembly doesn't have many scenes. Besides, this matter was originally decided by Director Feng. What do you think..."
"Don't force me!"
Chen Shu stood up suddenly and said through gritted teeth: "I have never been fooled like this in my life. If you force me, then we will die together!"
"How do we die together?"
Xu Kun sneered: "I wish I could spread eight scandals a day. Do you want to die with me? Do you have the strength to do that?"
Although Xu Kun felt that he owed Chen Shu something, he was always soft-hearted and would not tolerate tough situations, so how could he possibly compromise with Chen Shu?
"You, you are shameless!"
Chen Shu's face turned blue with anger. She was now convinced that Xu Kun was playing tricks on her. She gritted her teeth and was about to say something desperate.
At this time, Qin Lan suddenly suggested: "Why don't you join the 'Teddy Sisters Group'?"
