The last time he went back to the northwest, Tao Tang sent Xia Yu off. At that time, Tao Tang had not yet resigned from his position as director of the Shengtang Film and Television Agency Department. He had a lot of things on his hands and could not accompany Xia Yu the whole time to help handle things.
This trip, if Meng Dong hadn't arrived at his post, Tao Tang would have accompanied him the whole time, and he might have been very tired.
But with Meng Dong in place, she can concentrate on other things.
Xia Yu can't always count on luck like this one. He doesn't know where his next drama will be.
After the two hugged Tao Tang goodbye, they dragged their luggage to go through the check-in process for the ingot, for which they were two hours early.
Go to the check-in point, show a series of certificates of Yuanbao to pay the fee, and then wait in the waiting room with peace of mind.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the train arrived on time. After placing the Yuanbao in the fixed carriage, the two returned to their own carriage.
This trip is not far, it is less than 300 kilometers from the imperial capital to Qincheng, and the whole journey takes two hours.
At eleven o'clock in the morning, the train arrived in Qincheng on time. The announcement sounded at fifteen minutes, and Xia Yu and the two went to the pet transport carriage.
Get off the train as soon as you arrive at the station to avoid exit congestion.
As soon as I left the station, I saw Dai Chengbi squatting under the shade of a tree not far away, looking around.
As people flowed in, Lao Dai immediately saw Xia Yu and Meng Dong.
Even if the two little girls were dressed simply, wearing masks and hats, they couldn't hold back their brilliance.
Especially Xia Yu's height, body and good looks make it easy to become the center of attention.
The three of them met, and Xia Yu pointed at the two of them and introduced them to each other: "Meng Dong, my assistant, Dai Chengbi, director."
Meng Dong greeted respectfully, "Hello, Director Dai."
"Hello."
Dai Chengbi nodded, "Okay, let's not be polite here. Let's get in the car first."
The car was still the same old Jeep. I think Dai Chengbi drove all the way here, which is also in line with Dai Chengbi's current frugal character.
After preparing the luggage, Xia Yu got into the car with the cat cage in her arms. Lao Dai was a mysophobic, so although the car was old, it was very clean. As soon as it started, the melodious music started playing. It was old music, "White Birch Forest"
, and it is also in line with the style of Lao Dai’s literary youth.
The music is melodious, and the breeze blows from afar, mixed with the faint smell of the ocean~
Qincheng, a prefecture-level city in Northern Province, is also the location of Shanhaiguan Pass, the first pass of the Great Wall...
After hearing that Xia Yu said that he had never been to Qincheng, Dai Chengbi first introduced the city to Xia Yu, and then got to the point while chatting. Dai Chengbi said while driving, "The crew of Great Wall Film and Television will arrive on the 6th, and they have been surveying for the past two days.
The specific shooting location..."
As for the actors, the other two leading actors also arrived last night, and Wen Sui, who plays Jiang Lan, also arrived this morning.
Xia Yu listened half-heartedly and felt embarrassed, "It seems I'm the last one?"
Lao Dai curled his lips and said:
"If I have to say, you are not the last one. Although the little girl Wen Sui has arrived, you have not come. She is not willing to report to the set and is still wandering outside. I gave her the approximate time of your arrival.
She will probably arrive before us!"
Xia Yu smiled.
Speaking of Wen Sui, we have to mention the casting day at Imperial Academy of Fine Arts.
After listening to Xia Yu's suggestion, Wen Sui had no intention of coming to the audition. She just rushed to the stall where Xia Yu had finished her work and fulfilled her promise to treat Xia Yu to dinner to express her gratitude. However, as soon as she finished asking, she was scolded by Dai Chengbi.
At first, Dai Chengbi heard her come over to ask if there was a crew casting here, and thought it was a late student. Dai Chengbi never had a good attitude towards guys who were not punctual, and he was very angry for most of the day. When he heard this, he thought
Not even remotely dissatisfied.
I started the audition at two o'clock and you didn't arrive until after it was over. Are you polite?
But even though Dai Chengbi was very angry that day, he still didn't criticize Wen Sui. He just said that the audition was over and asked her to go back and forth wherever she went.
Fortunately, Wen Sui had a good temper. She shrugged helplessly and pointed at Xia Yu, saying, "I'm not here for the audition, I'm here to see Teacher Xia Yu."
Especially when Wen Sui finished speaking and took off his mask, "Hey guys, now it's Dai Chengbi's turn to be stunned."
Isn’t this girl the Jiang Lan I imagined!?
Good guys, the sisters in the script jumped to reality?
What happened after that was also very simple. Xia Yu refused Dai Chengbi's dinner date and planned to go with Wen Sui. Of course Dai Chengbi wouldn't do it. Good guy, he wanted to go too. He had been busy for almost two months and didn't find anyone suitable.
How could the candidate be let go?!
After having a meal with Wen Sui, Dai Chengbi finally got Wen Sui's contact information. He chased her for two or three days before finally finalizing Wen Sui's schedule. The little girl originally didn't plan to pick up Wen Sui, but she couldn't resist Dai Chengbi's relentless pursuit.
beat.
Of course, the most important thing was Xia Yu's assist. Perhaps because she felt that acting was quite new to her, Xia Yu made fun of Yu Junhao again.
Wen Sui hesitated.
Xia Yu's words were full of confusion, "Even Yu Junhao, who was once so outstanding, chose to embark on this path while taking care of his profession. You might as well give it a try. Anyway, it's just this movie. If you have any requirements, you can ask Director Dai."
Just discuss it and enrich your spiritual world."
It was this passage that shook Wen Sui. Yes, even idol Yu Junhao had entered the entertainment industry, which made her want to see how charming acting was. So, just when Dai Chengbi thought there was no chance, she
Agree to make an appointment to have a look.
As for various details that Xia Yu was not present, Dai Chengbi said that Wen Sui hired a lawyer and consultant to finalize them together. As for some of the physical contact scenes, Dai Chengbi still insisted on cutting off one or two more.
strip.
In terms of salary, although Wen Sui is just a newcomer, due to some factors, Dai Chengbi complained and was severely cut off.
Dai Chengbi didn't say the exact number, and Xia Yu didn't ask, but judging from his attitude, it was probably quite a lot.
Being able to extract teeth from Dai Chengbi's tiger's mouth, it is certain that he has the inside story, but Xia Yu's curiosity is not that strong.
She has done so much, and the only thing she cares about is whether the movie can be started and shot normally.
After chatting with Dai Chengbi about the details, the old Jeep soon left the city and arrived at the boundary arranged by the crew.
