Chapter 585 Angry Youth
When Chen Hong came out of the dressing room, she saw Chen Kaige standing with his hands behind his back, looking around, like a senior leader who came to inspect the crew.
Seeing him like this, Chen Hong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that her husband should not have noticed anything unusual - in fact, he shouldn't have noticed anything, after all, she had just shaken hands with Xu Kun.
So she gently lifted the hair by her ear, walked over quickly and pretended to be surprised and asked, "Why are you here?"
Chen Kaige grinned, then coughed and said, "I suddenly feel like visiting my virtuous wife. I want to see you reasoning, reasoning... reasoning..."
Halfway through reading, he suddenly felt that the following words were not suitable, but he was unable to change them at the last minute. As a result, he froze on the spot, and his expression quickly changed from smug to frowning.
"Oops~"
Chen Hong had experience with this, so she quickly stepped forward and took the arm of the great poet Chen, pretending to be shy and saying, "There are so many people in the crew, it would be embarrassing for others to hear it, you should keep it and read it to me alone when you go back."
Chen Kaige got this opportunity, his expression suddenly turned from gloomy to bright, he patted Chen Hong's arm with his backhand, and was about to say something, but suddenly wondered: "Hey, why did you put so much powder on your face?"
This is of course to cover up the blush on the face.
Although Chen Hong could control her expression, it was impossible for her to cool down her face in such a short time, so she had to temporarily apply another layer of powder.
But this reason obviously couldn't be said, so she sighed slightly and said, "She's old and ugly, so she has to rely on makeup to cover it up, right?"
After a pause, he continued, "Since you think you applied too much, I'll wipe some off later."
She had just covered up the flaw when Xu Kun, who was checking the situation inside, came out upon hearing the sound.
In fact, when Xu Kun heard that Chen Kaige had also joined the crew, his first reaction was that it was a honey trap. He suspected that if he took advantage of the situation at that time, Director Chen would jump out to arrest him.
But when I think about it carefully, it seems unlikely.
Chen Kaige is one of the four great directors in China. To frame him, he used his wife as bait. Isn't this too much?!
In addition, he really hadn't done anything before, so he came out and greeted Chen Kaige calmly, and said some polite words like "Welcome Director Chen to guide us."
Who knew that he was just being polite out of habit, but Chen Kaige was not polite at all. He went straight into the shooting scene and nitpicked about the interior scenes, camera positions, lighting, color matching, etc.
The great poet Chen did not agree from the bottom of his heart that Xu Kun could be on par with himself. Even the combined box office of his three recent big productions could not catch up with that of Xu Kun's one film. He still looked down on Xu Kun.
Of course, there was also a hint of fear in this, otherwise he would not have come specially to watch his wife filming today.
But to be honest, Chen Kaige does have his own unique way of dispatching on the scene, at least it is incomparable to Xu Kun now, so Xu Kun secretly cursed Lao Deng for being nosy, but at the same time he carefully kept his words in mind.
And just like that, the morning scene started filming as scheduled.
Overall it went smoothly, except for the time when filming the interview scene with Chen Hong, when Chen Kaige couldn't help but step in and not only pulled Chen Hong aside to give her some advice, he also included Wang Bing, who played Zhang Lan on the opposite side, within his reach.
Xu Kun couldn't stand it anymore, so he pulled Chen Kaige outside and pointed to the dressing room and said, "Teacher Chen will be done with the photoshoot soon, why don't you go and help her pack her luggage first?"
Chen Kaige also knew that he had violated a taboo, but even if he had violated a taboo, Xu Kun's approach of directly driving him away was still a little unacceptable to him - isn't it normal for a young man who has only been in business for a few years to listen and learn more from the older seniors?
But seeing Xu Kun's firm attitude, he had no choice but to go to the dressing room with his hands behind his back in a depressed mood.
When he arrived at the door, Chen Kaige realized that this place was only for actresses and it was not convenient for him to go in. Besides, even if he had packed his luggage in advance, wouldn't Chen Hong still have to come over to change clothes later?
He cursed Xu Kun inwardly, paced back and forth at the door of the dressing room, and felt that it was not appropriate for him to stay here, so he walked back slowly.
Just at this time, a conflict suddenly broke out at the entrance. It seemed that the reason was that a young man ignored the staff's dissuasion and insisted on breaking in.
And looking at the young man shouting at the top of his lungs and with his face flushed and neck thick, you can tell that he is definitely not here to simply chase stars.
If he encountered this situation on his own crew, Director Chen would definitely hide far away at the first moment and wait until the staff had the situation under control before showing up again.
But isn’t this in Xu Kun’s crew?
It was none of his business, and since he had just been kicked out by Xu Kun, Director Chen became interested. He put his hands behind his back and walked over to him. He asked loudly from a distance of more than ten steps, "What's going on?"
"Director Chen."
The staff member naturally knew Chen Kaige, and hurriedly explained: "This guy wanted to see our Director Xu. When asked why, he refused to tell us and just kept forcing his way in."
"I want to see Xu Kun, I want to see Xu Kun!"
While the staff was explaining, the young man yelled and tried to rush in, but was stopped by the staff again. He angrily cursed: "You guys get that stinky SB to get out here, or else..."
The staff were already annoyed with him, and when they heard him swear, one of them glared at them and said, "Who are you swearing at? Say it again. Believe it or not, we'll beat you up!"
The two companions beside him were also eager to try. The young man subconsciously took two steps back, then gritted his teeth and tore open his shirt, took out a black wine bottle with a rag stuffed in it, and then took out a lighter, lit it in the air with a snap, and shouted: "Get out of my way, if I don't see that bastard Xu Kun today, I'll drag you guys down with me!"
The three staff members responsible for maintaining order were shocked when they saw the young man rushing in with a lighter in one hand and a Molotov cocktail in the other. They immediately retreated to the sides.
It's only a thousand dollars a month, why bother with that?
Chen Kaige had heard this person calling Xu Kun a "stinking idiot". He was secretly criticizing this person for being vulgar, while at the same time gloating over Xu Kun's trouble. Who knew that things would suddenly come to this point.
He also hurriedly moved to the side of the road, lowered his head and rolled his eyes, until the angry young man walked past him, then he dared to look at the other's back.
He secretly thought in his heart, if Xu Kun was really burned to death, could he make a main-theme movie in the name of commemorating him and boost the box office?
At this time, the angry young man's lighter seemed to be a little hot, so he temporarily extinguished the flame. The staff behind him all breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this.
One of them quietly took out his cell phone and wanted to call inside to tip off the situation.
As a result, at this critical moment, four or five people suddenly walked out from the interior shooting site, led by Xu Kun and Chen Hong.
The angry young man was overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately quickened his pace to rush over.
Chen Kaige became anxious when he saw this. He didn't care what happened to Xu Kun, but he couldn't let his wife get involved, right?
He immediately put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly: "Hong, stay away from Xu Kun, don't let him lead you..."
"Shut up!"
The angry young man who was about to rush forward turned around and yelled, pretending to throw a Molotov cocktail over.
Although the unlit Molotov cocktail posed no threat at all, Chen Kaige was still so scared that he quickly covered his mouth.
However, with that loud shout, Xu Kun and others on the opposite side had already realized that something was wrong. They stopped and began to observe the situation here.
When the angry young man saw this, he immediately rushed over with gritted teeth.
Seeing him holding a black bottle with a ferocious face, anyone would know that he was definitely not a good person. The production director who was very respectful to Xu Kun yelled "Ah Lao" and turned around and ran back.
With someone taking the lead, the other two staff members immediately ran back.
Xu Kun was not so panicked, but when he saw three of the five people running away, the angry young man immediately shouted, "Xu Kun, stop right there! If you have the guts, don't run!"
As he said this, he relit the lighter in his hand.
Seeing that he was coming for him, Xu Kun naturally couldn't stay to clash with him, so he turned around and left, reminding Chen Hong: "He's looking for me, move to the side..."
"Ouch~!"
Before she could finish her words, Chen Hong fell down on the stairs. It turned out that in her panic, she forgot that she was still wearing an old-fashioned cheongsam, and ended up tripping when she stepped onto the stairs.
Xu Kun wanted to go over and pull her up, but at this time the angry young man had already rushed up to him, his bloodshot eyes glaring, and the Molotov cocktail in his hand raised high, as if he was here to blow up a bunker.
Xu Kun thought that since this person was looking for him, he would not easily affect others - after all, people usually don't carry too many Molotov cocktails with them, and they can't just shoot them at everyone they see.
So he turned around and went back into the house, challenging her: "Come on, come on, chase me if you have the guts..."
He originally thought that if he could lure the person into the house, he could learn to play a "prop game" like Big Brother Cheng Long. Even if he couldn't defeat the opponent, he would not be hurt by the opponent by shielding himself.
Unexpectedly, just as Xu Kun stepped over the threshold, the door was slammed shut with a bang.
"Bolt, bolt!"
The production director who had just fled in a panic shouted, "Hey, you guys, quickly bring the sofa over to block the way!"
“Wait, wait!”
Seeing the stage manager leading people to lift the sofa, Xu Kun quickly called for a stop: "If we block the door, won't that force him to think of other tricks?"
As the saying goes, good things don't work, but bad things do. As soon as Xu Kun finished speaking, he heard Chen Hong screaming outside the door, and then the angry young man yelled: "Xu Kun, you coward, get out of here right now, or I will die with this woman, and then set fire to this house!"
No, since you are all going to die together, why would you set fire to the house?
