Chapter 318 The main characters all have Chinese medicine names
The private dish decided by Wang Han Ding is really good. Ding Xiu tastes no worse than a five-star hotel. The most important thing is that the cuisine is unique, and it is rare to be able to achieve this level.
Before leaving, he asked the waiter to pack two uneasy dishes for Zhao Liying. While eating, Zhao Liying almost chewed his tongue and gave him a thumbs up and said it was delicious.
The next morning, Ding Xiu did not leave Xiangnan immediately, but instead shot an advertisement for sports running shoes.
Wang Han had previously said that there was a sponsor in Tiantian Xiangshang who needed a spokesperson, so he recommended him, and later Yang Siwei also agreed.
The brand is Xtep.
The endorsement fee of 7.6 million yuan was signed for three years.
The price seems to be very high, Ding Xiu doesn't have to do anything, he just needs to show off his face and get 7.6 million.
In fact, it is not easy at all. After signing this brand, he will no longer be able to endorse other sports shoes in the future, and he may not even wear shoes with obvious logos in other brands in public.
Otherwise, you will be wearing Nike with the endorsement of someone else's XP on your back and you will turn your head and wear Nike. It would be strange if you don't sue you.
It took me a morning to shoot an XP advertisement. In the afternoon, Ding Xiu took a plane to leave Xiangnan and headed to Hengdian Film and Television City.
For Hengdian, Ding Xiu has to stay for several months every year. Sometimes he considers whether he wants to buy a house here, otherwise it will be inconvenient to stay in a hotel all the time.
Not long after Ding Xiu arrived at the hotel, the door of the room was knocked.
When I opened the door, it was director Li Guoli, an old acquaintance. He also filmed Xian Jianyi before.
"Brother Xiu, I organized a dinner party tonight and called all the leading actors of the crew. Let's meet and get to know each other, so it will be easier to cooperate in the future."
"This little thing is a big deal and it's enough to bother Director Li. Just call and say it."
"I haven't walked a few steps away, my room is next to you. I'll come here to play when I have time."
"Okay, Director Li, I will definitely go."
"I won't disturb you and have a rest. See you at 7 o'clock in the evening. I'll send you the private room location."
After a simple greeting, Li Guoli left.
In fact, he just came to say hello. The crew dinner was like Ding Xiu said. The reason why he came here by phone was mainly to say hello to Ding Xiu.
Today is different from the past. When Ding Xiu played the role of Xian Jianyi, it was the first time that he played the male lead in a TV series. His fame was not as good as now. At that time, he was called Ding Xiu Xiao Ding.
Now they are the TV star and the movie star. They have to be called Brother Xiu, who is a big shot who can influence the crew to shoot.
At 6:50 pm, Ding Xiu changed his clothes and went downstairs ten minutes in advance. The dining venue was this hotel, with a few steps away.
When I arrived at the private room, I opened the door, and the rest of the people had arrived.
There were about a dozen people sitting in a lot.
In addition to director Li Guoli, the female lead Yang Mi, Ding Xiu also saw the deputy director and screenwriter who was the former Xianjian. If he remembered correctly, he should be named Hou Wenjie and Yang Rui.
Most of the rest are raw faces.
Ding Xiu said, "I'm sorry to come late, I'll punish myself for three cups."
"It's not too late, the time has not yet arrived. It's seven o'clock that we're here too early."
After a few steps, Li Guoli stood up to greet him, and the rest of the people also left their seats and stood up to face Ding Xiu.
"You just came here and may not be familiar with everyone. Let me introduce you to you. This is Yang Mi and plays Xue Jian."
Holding Ding Xiu's shoulder, Li Guoli first introduced Yang Mi.
"Hello Brother Xiu." Yang Mi shook hands with Ding Xiu with a smile and bowed.
"Hello."
Ding Xiu from a company is not Alzheimer's disease, so of course he knows Yang Mi, but he just needs to avoid some disgust in front of so many people.
Besides, Li Guoli really doesn’t know that Yang Mi knows him? The introduction is a process. In addition to giving Ding Xiu face, it also allows others to know each other.
"This is Liu Sisi, playing Long Kui."
The second one introduces a girl in her twenties, who is not very old, is pure and beautiful, has a good figure, and looks like a big student.
"Hello, Brother Xiu, I am the new actor Liu Sisi, just call me Sisi, and give me some advice."
Not only do he look like a college student, but his statements are similar to those of students. He is not so sleek and sophisticated. Facing Ding Xiu, Liu Sisi was a little nervous and cramped, afraid that he would offend others if he said the wrong thing.
"Don't be nervous, you Mr. Cai and I are old acquaintances. Are you a student?"
"No, I've graduated for a year."
"Awesome, you graduated from college at such a young age?"
"Ha, I'm studying in the dance academy, it's a bit special."
She was admitted to the Vocational College of Opera and Art in Peking in the fourth grade. After graduating at the age of fifteen, she went to the Ballet Department of the Peking Dance Academy to study. She has been graduating for more than a year.
At the same time, it has been in the industry for more than a year.
Because she was valued by the sugar man when she first graduated, she signed a contract with the company.
"This is Tang Yan, playing Zi Xuan."
"Brother Xiu is good."
"There are so many beauties in our crew, and Director Li's vision is as good as ever."
"Brother Xiu has won the award. I am also a newcomer to film and television. I am not good at acting. If you have any bad things, please make sure to point it out and I will try my best to correct it."
"There is no point in giving advice. Everyone communicates with each other. I haven't been in the industry for a long time. I'm just a few years older than you, and I've filmed a few more movies. By the way, is your agent Sister Hua?"
If Ding Xiu remembers correctly, Wang Jinhua will be entertaining all day long.
When she first changed jobs to Huayi, she took away a large number of artists, and her job-changing boss was Zhengtian Entertainment.
Tang Yan gently stroked his hair and smiled sweetly: "I think so, but Sister Hua is our artist director and has rarely brought artists in recent years."
The implication is that she is not Wang Jinhua's artist.
A big name like Wang Jinhua, who is either a movie star or a movie queen, doesn’t he like her just debuted? The two are not on the same level.
She is just an artist among Wang Jinhua's many agents.
"Sister Hua is the boss, so you don't have to do anything yourself. I envy you. I also want to live like her. Next time you see her and say hello to me."
"must."
Tang Yan smiled on her face, but she felt very miserable. Her family knew her family's affairs, so she probably couldn't bring Ding Xiu's words.
I heard from the insider of the company that Sister Hua is ready to start her own business, just like she did when she jumped from a job in Huayi.
The difference is that this time she wants to open a company herself and be the top leader.
I don’t have to think about it. When she left, I don’t know how many people she would follow.
But it’s good if the old man doesn’t leave. Where can the newcomers get the chance to make a comeback? One carrot and the other pit.
Just like this Legend of Sword and Fairy, the person the company was originally going to decide was not her, but another senior, but because that senior's butt was tilted towards Sister Hua, the show belonged to her.
"Hello, I am Huo Jianhua, playing Xu Changqing."
"Hello Brother Hua."
"I dare not, Brother Xiu..."
After a circle, Ding Xiu remembered everyone's names.
He is the male lead and the second male lead Huo Jianhua, a popular idol from Wanwan. He is not very famous. This time he came to try the waters.
Ding Xiu is not surprised by this. In recent years, many actors on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have been moving closer to the mainland entertainment industry.
There is no way, who makes the mainland market bigger?
The third male lead is also a Wanwan actor named Huang Zhiwei. He is very tall, over 1.9 meters tall, and has a very burly figure. He plays the role of Mo Zunguanlou.
The fourth male lead, Lin Zhicong, is an Hong Kong actor. He used to play the role of Fatty Jae Cong in Stephen Chow's Shaolin Football, and played Xingzai's good brother in Kung Fu.
The fifth male lead Liu Jiahui is a well-known Hong Kong actor. He has debuted for many years and has seen him in Hong Kong films many times.
The female lead Yang Mi, the female lead Liu Sisi, and the female lead Tang Yan.
It can be said that this drama has brought together many actors from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three regions, and the scene is no worse than the previous Xianjian.
...
"Jingtian, Xu Changqing, Chonglou, Xuejian, Long Kui, Zixuan... The screenwriter is a bit skillful, and the name is really nice."
After reading the script, Yang Mi picked up her pen and wrote and painted, looked at the names of these protagonists, and sighed.
"This is not written by the screenwriter." Hearing her muttering, Ding Xiu said: "The first game of Legend of Sword and Fairy was released in 1995. These names are available in the game."
This is his second time shooting the Fairy Sword, and he knows much more about this IP than Yang Mi and the others.
I checked a lot of information when I was filming Xian Jianyi a few years ago. This time I consolidated and deepened, and I played the Xian Jian game for a lot of time. Well, I was just an Internet addiction and addicted.
Relying on the table, Ding Xiu supported his temples and said, "I think the plan may be the one who runs a Chinese medicine shop."
Yang Mi wondered: "What does it mean?"
Director Li Guoli smiled and said, "Because these are all Chinese medicine names."
Yang Mi opened her mouth wide: "There are such a nice Chinese medicine name?"
In the past, people took names from the Four Books and Five Classics, some were taken from the Stars and Constellations, ancient poems, and Chinese medicine, but not many were heard of.
This drama suddenly has so many Chinese medicine names, and it is so nice, which is rare.
"What is Xuejian's medicinal properties?"
Li Guoli's chin looked at Ding Xiu Yiyang: "Brother Xiu should know."
Ding Xiu said slowly: "Xuejian is also called toad grass. It is cold in nature, diuretic, clears heat and detoxifies."
Yang Mi: "..."
With such a nice name, she thought there would be a beautiful story, but who knew that Ding Xiu would smash her as soon as he opened his mouth.
Toad grass.
Really know how to name it.
When the others saw Yang Mi's black face, they couldn't laugh.
Yang Mi didn't want to be embarrassed, so she asked, "Where is Zixuan?"
Zixuan's name is also quite nice. The gender of the medicine should be similar to that of her Xue Jian, right?
"Zixuan is also called Forget-Word Grass. It treats too much sorrow, and is unhappy, and the cold and heat are spreading."
Yang Mima is so mad, she didn't know about Zixuan, but Wangyoucao has heard of it, but she didn't expect the meaning to be quite good.
At this time, Tang Yan raised his hand and said, "No wonder Brother Hua and I ended up drinking the forgetful water and forgetting each other."
Nuwa descendants Zixuan and Xu Changqing fell in love for three lifetimes. Finally, they each drank the water for forgetting each other, but after turning around, they vomited the water and poured it down.
Zixuan grew up in Nanzhao Kingdom, and she had never seen snow. She once had the wish of Xu Changqing to see snow. Xu Changqing promised to accompany him in the future.
Many years later, heavy snow fell on Shu Mountain. The head of the sect, Xu Changqing, danced his sword in the snow, sent the heavy snow to Nanzhao, thousands of miles away, and fell to Zixuan, who was gray-haired.
"What is Long Kui?" Liu Sisi was also curious.
"Dragon sunflower can be used as a plant or a flower to produce small white flowers and produce black pearl-like fruits, which have the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, promoting blood circulation and reducing swelling."
Ding Xiu continued to Liu Sisi: "That's why your character has two sides."
Long Kui has a dual personality, one is gentle and the other is fierce, just like its appearance.
In fact, several actors in this drama play multiple roles. Liu Sisi wants to play two Long Kui, Yang Mi wants to play Xue Jian and Xi Yao.
Zixuan and Xu Changqing have a three-life relationship, so Tang Yan has to perform Zixuan in three different states.
Huo Jianhua is similar, he wants to play Xu Changqing's past and present life.
Ding Xiu is also a one-person triangle. He wants to play Jingtian, Longyang, and Fei Peng.
In fact, he should be the four corners. Li Xiaoyao will also appear in this drama, but there are not many scenes, only two scenes, so it’s not difficult.
In general, this drama is quite difficult, with high requirements for acting, many fighting, and even more so.
"The seven leaves and one flower in Chonglou are also used to clear heat and detoxify. In fact, the medicinal properties of these medicines are just that. It's nothing strange, but the name is a bit special."
Ding Xiu's curiosity is not as great as Yang Mi.
He is a martial arts practitioner and is half a doctor. He has a much better understanding of traditional Chinese medicine than ordinary people, so it is not surprising that he has seen it more.
In his eyes, what he sees is not romance, but medicinal properties and value.
Yang Mi worshipped, "Brother Xiu is so amazing, he knows a lot."
Liu Sisi scratched her head: "I haven't heard of these things before, nor did she teach them in school."
"Cough cough." Director Li Guoli coughed and said seriously: "In the industry of actors, the final effort is all about culture and heritage. Don't worry about filming. Read more books if you have nothing to do. Learn from Brother Xiu, and he has enough knowledge.
He is a big, well-known and well-documented person, and has a great study of ancient culture."
This is not to praise Ding Xiu, but he really thinks Ding Xiu knows a lot.
When I was working on Xian Jianyi before, I felt it. Ding Xiu could take on any topic. When talking about ancient culture and Ming Dynasty history, Ding Xiu directly transformed into a senior expert and even explained the dynasty of the dynasty, even people from that era
You know what to eat, what to use, what to wear, and customs and customs, just like seeing it yourself.
Sometimes Li Guoli thinks that if Ding Xiu doesn’t become an actor, he will be more than enough to go to college to be a history teacher.
"I'm too proud. I just like to read some miscellaneous books, but not meticulous. Director Li is so proud of me." Even though he beat Ding Xiu to death, he just said some common sense that he had lived in before, and would be regarded as erudite.
Li Guoli smiled and said, "I'm still very modest."
"By the way, Brother Xiu, the martial arts director said that you will turn around and hold a meeting with him and discuss Jing Tian's martial arts."
"The screenwriter also wants you to give them comments."
"You are experts in both ancient Chinese and martial arts, so we listen to you."
Good guy, the actors present were all numb. It was awkward to see Ding Xiu’s eyes look wrong. This was too awesome. The martial arts director and screenwriter both wanted to ask him for advice.
If it is because of his status, it’s fine, but I really want to ask him for advice based on this attitude.
Ding Xiu said calmly: "Let's talk about it if you have time."
Without adding money, he was so fucked to do the work of martial arts director and screenwriter. What do you think?
Whoever wants to do it, he is responsible for playing his role well.
