290 Dong Xuan, a newcomer who became famous overnight, known all over the country
Mongolia Province, on the hillside of a certain grassland
Zhou Jie was dressed in a flashy costume and anxiously chased Dong Xuan in costume. The two were so entangled that it took two hours of filming to finish the awkward and coaxing scene between Yang Kang and Mu Nianci.
"No problem, let's take a rest and move on."
The director shouted, and Dong Xuan and the two came out of the scene. The assistant next to them hugged a military coat and immediately wrapped it in Dong Xuan's hands, and also stuffed a hot water bottle in his hand.
It's still the first month of the year and the weather is still cold. Although the costumes in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" have two or three layers, in order to ensure the body shape effect, they are all single-layered.
It also has a warming effect, but it can only be guaranteed in spring and autumn, and it cannot withstand the cold winter.
They had been filming for nearly two hours at a stretch with almost no rest. Zhou Jie and Dong Xuan were both freezing and their faces were a little pale.
Fortunately, the following scenes are all performed by Master Lingzhi, Peng Lianhu, and Sha Tongtian, so the two of them can take a break.
Dong Xuan was wrapped in a military coat and huddled in the wind shelter. Zhou Jie drank a cup of hot water and jumped around to keep warm.
This time filming for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was a big test for Dong Xuan.
Previously, I was on the set of "Golden Pink Family", where the boss and the landlady were all there. The logistics support was not great, but it was definitely above the standard. There were a lot of indoor scenes, and the shooting environment was quite comfortable.
But when "Legend of the Condor Heroes" came along, the environment and shooting difficulty suddenly increased.
It's okay to be colder, as long as the freezing time is not too severe, Dong Xuan, who is from the Northeast, can actually bear the cold better than Zhou Jie.
The main thing is food and accommodation. Although Zhang Dabeard is not too stingy, he can make a lot of money when he is an independent business owner at CCTV.
Moreover, due to the multi-party investment in the crew, there is a mix of good and bad people, and many people have their hands in many aspects.
Last year, there was an incident where the entire crew had diarrhea after eating lunch boxes, and almost couldn't start work the next day.
According to the doctor who called in, if it is more serious, it can be regarded as food poisoning...
Although the crew's diet has improved since then, it is only hygienic and the taste and ingredients are subject to different opinions.
In fact, Dong Xuan doesn't particularly care about material conditions alone. After all, the other leading actors receive similar treatment. If she has the money to start a small business of her own, that's another matter.
What really made Dong Xuan feel the gap was the treatment of the crew.
In "Jin Fen Family", because Dong Xuan is a newcomer, and she is the heroine + her own artist, although the pressure is high, the relevant parties will take care of her deliberately, and the director will give her special tutoring lessons from time to time.
Cao Xuan would sometimes tell her plays in person, and of course, Mrs. Hu would definitely accompany her.
But on the set of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", no one gave her any special treatment.
Not at all, but after all, she is the second female lead and a newcomer, so she is definitely not as good as "The Golden Family".
The soft-boiled man, Mr. Zhou, and Zhou Jie are all first-tier or near-first-tier celebrities. Dong Xuan, a newcomer, is just a transparent person in front of a few people.
Zhang Dabeard and the director were somewhat polite to the others, but Dong Xuan, because of Cao Xuan's reputation, although it was not a matter of scolding, she would be severely reprimanded if the filming was not good.
Of course, there is nothing wrong with this in itself. Filming is work, not a way for actors to live a good life.
However, after being used to the relatively harmonious crew atmosphere and strong logistical support in "The Golden Family", it's hard not to change my mentality when I come to reality.
The longer Dong Xuan stayed on the set of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the more she missed the days of filming in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
People are created by comparison.
I didn't think much of Cao Xuan as the boss before, but now that she has been filming with Zhang Dabeard for several months, Dong Xuan is full of words to praise Cao Xuan.
While they were taking a break, the production director of the crew rushed over and saw Dong Xuan grabbing her sleeve.
"Hurry up, Mr. Zhang is looking for you. There are a bunch of reporters outside, all here to interview you."
"Interview me?"
Dong Xuan, who was confused about the situation, looked confused. Production director Ren was so anxious that she almost jumped: "Don't you understand? Girl, you are famous."
Red!?
Dong Xuan was dragged away by the production director in a daze. Zhou Jie was curious and joined in the fun.
Today's shooting was in two locations, one was a small group shooting Yang Kang's side, and the other was a large group shooting the male and female protagonist's scenes.
The straight-line distance between the two crews was only about a hundred meters, but there was a hillside blocking it. It took five or six minutes to get around. When they arrived at the crew, they saw a dozen reporters surrounding Zhang's big beard.
"Dong Xuan is a very hard-working actress and can endure hardships. She is a dancer and has good acting skills. We are now preparing for her to play an important role in the upcoming "Dragon Movie"..."
Zhang Beard was bragging in front of reporters, and at the same time he did not forget the popularity of the "Dragon Movie" crew behind Amway.
While he was enjoying the excitement, he suddenly saw Dong Xuan and hurriedly waved her over and introduced him to reporters.
"Dong Xuan just came back from Beijing the night before yesterday and joined the crew for filming the next day. She is very dedicated."
"Hello Dong Xuan, I am a reporter from Sina.com. Are you returning to the capital to celebrate the New Year?"
"No, the crew won't have a holiday during the Spring Festival. I'm going back to cooperate with the promotion of "Golden Pink Family"."
Dong Xuan replied in a confused manner, Zhang Big Beard was not someone to be trifled with, and most people wouldn't let them go when they joined the team. It was only after Cao Xuan called in person that he gave Dong Xuan a week's holiday.
Dong Xuan, who was still a little transparent before, had always followed Cao Xuan and Hu Jing when participating in interviews. She had to deal with more than a dozen reporters at once and was choked by the reporters' questions.
What's more important is that she didn't understand what was going on at all. Fortunately, Zhang Dabeard didn't have the shame to share the firepower.
Only then did Dong Xuan understand the situation bit by bit!
The production director just now was right, Dong Xuan is famous, and extremely popular.
In less than a week after the show was aired, the ratings have exceeded 10%, and the market share has stabilized at more than 25%. Since its launch, it has ranked first in the same time period for many consecutive days.
"Xiao Shiyilang" and "Iron Teeth Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan 2", which were both broadcast in February, were directly crushed by "The Golden Family", and they lost their temper at all.
"Iron Teeth Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan 2" has the support of the audience base of the previous film. The combination of Iron Triangle + Yuan Li is also very popular, and the results are barely acceptable.
And "Xiao Shiyilang" was miserable.
This TV series, which was given high hopes by Zhouyi and even invited Captain Wu Qilong of the Little Tigers and Zixia Fairy Zhu Yin, was attacked by "The Golden Family" and "Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan", and its premiere performance was far worse than that of the original time and space.
The Book of Changes, which had just gained momentum due to "Li Wei Becomes an Official" and "Wulin Foreign History", was given a slap in the face by Tou Tou.
Zhou Yi has great ambitions for this drama. He produced it independently and invested heavily in it. Now that the first broadcast is unfavorable, it is more difficult to sell subsequent broadcast rights and the funds cannot be recovered. The company is facing a small crisis.
The second part of Li Wei's trilogy, "Li Wei Becomes an Official", which was originally planned to be developed by Fanxing, has also become a problem.
However, Cao Xuan was very loyal and lent 5 million to Zhou Yi for free to tide over the difficulties.
Zhou Yi, Jiang Xueroushun and his wife were very grateful. They knew that Cao Xuan had been thinking about Zhou Yi's script reserves, so they took out some high-quality scripts as thanks and interest, including "Shuiyue Cave", which Cao Xuan had always thought about.
Cao Xuan was originally embarrassed to ask for this script.
"Love Across Time and Space" and "Li Wei Becomes an Official", Fanxing has already made a lot of money out of Zhouyi. This 5 million is considered a thank you fee. Besides, it is just a loan, not a non-repayment.
But in the view of Zhou Yi and his wife, it was a critical moment when their company encountered difficulties.
Although it started to some extent because of "Jin Fen Family", it was not Fanxing's original intention.
Comparatively speaking, during the cooperation of "Li Wei Becomes an Official", if Fanxing Company's funds were cut off, the couple's first thought would not be to help, but to seize the opportunity to win Fanxing's share.
As a result, now, instead of taking advantage of the situation, Cao Xuan took the initiative to donate generously and provide financial help without any strings attached.
Boss Cao is a very particular person!
Therefore, Cao Xuan did not resist the kindness of Zhou Yi and his wife, and accepted the scripts such as "Water Moon Cave" with a shy face, and was even chased by Zhou Yi and his wife to thank them.
Cao Xuan felt that such a situation was mainly because he was too kind.
Every time I finish harvesting the wool, I always want to compensate others. As a result, I am automatically understood by others as "Cao brings good people", and they are grateful to him and regard him as a close friend.
Xiao Zhou, Yu Quan, Sun Yanzi, Zhou Yi and his wife are all senior victims.
Even if his moral integrity is as low as Cao Xuan's, he sometimes reflects on whether he has gone too far, and in the end he can only come to one conclusion: don't pick on someone, be more philanthropic.
Ho...bah!
Then again, the ratings of "Golden Pink Family" were very popular, and several of the leading actors naturally became popular as well.
The first is Cao Xuan, but his own reputation base is huge, which is the icing on the cake.
The charm of Hu Jing's role has not yet emerged, and the growth is limited for the time being. On the contrary, several newcomers who have appeared in the role have gained a lot of attention.
The most popular one is of course Dong Xuan as the heroine. Her outstanding character design, pretty appearance and gentle and elegant temperament made this Nortel sophomore student become famous almost overnight and she was well known throughout the country.
Dong Xuan has been busy traveling these past two days and has just returned to the set. She has no intention of thinking about outside matters. The company is busy with various follow-up matters for "The Golden Family" and cannot take care of her for the moment.
In addition, the crew of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was busy filming and was located in a remote location, so news was relatively inconvenient. It was not until a few days after the broadcast that reporters came to the door that everyone knew that Dong Xuan was famous.
This group of reporters was just the first batch. In the following two days, many reporters came one after another, all coming to interview Dong Xuan.
"Jinfen Family" has received great ratings and attracted a lot of attention. There is no shortage of information about Cao Xuan and Hu Jing. The most lacking thing is the amateur heroine, so everyone is rushing to grab news about Dong Xuan.
Zhang Dabeard had no worries about being interrupted during the filming, and he wished that more people would come and make the popularity of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and its follow-up "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" soaring.
He now wished he could hug Cao Xuan and give her a kiss. He didn't expect that he would be the second female lead arranged by a favor. He didn't expect that the scene would become a major publicity point for the crew. It was really worth it.
After Zhang Bearded studied how popular "Jin Fen Family" was, he realized Dong Xuan's popularity and even considered whether to give her more weight.
Mu Wanqing's portion is a bit low, and Wang Yuyan is quite suitable, but someone has already decided on it.
Zhang Dabeard was thinking about the roles of A'Zhu and A'Zi, but he felt that Dong Xuan was a little unsuitable, and he kept hesitating in his heart.
Dong Xuan didn't have any ideas, so she accepted the interview with reporters with peace of mind. Fanxing finally reacted, and Jiang Yue flew over personally to take charge.
The proprietress couldn't move, and the others had not made much progress. Dong Xuan once became the most profitable trump card of Fanxing Artist Management Department, and Vice President Jiang took it very seriously.
These reporters couldn't hold it in and were eager to dig out some hard facts from Dong Xuan, a rookie.
Almost every reporter has to ask about the relationship between Dong Xuan and Cao Xuan during interviews. They want to tie them together. If they can't reveal the relationship, they have to figure out the whole unspoken rules.
Dong Xuan was still very immature when facing these wolf-like reporters. If Zhang Beard hadn't been there to help her before, she might have been fooled.
But now that Jiang Yue is here, and Fengyun Studio is in place immediately, and has taken the initiative in public opinion, there is no need to worry too much about being tricked.
But scandals are inevitable, otherwise it would be a disservice to Cao Daguan's reputation.
Cao Xuan had tried hard to clarify before, but later found that it was useless, so he simply let it go and let the ridicule go.
The only thing that makes Cao Xuan happy is that the people he is having sex with are all female artists, not men. As long as they are real men, everything else is easy...
