Chapter 373 Why are all the scumbags surnamed Chen?
In fact, there is no clear distinction between movie stars and TV drama stars in China these days. For example, Chen Daoming, Hu Jun, and He Xin. Do you dare to say that they are TV drama stars? But they are still making TV series.
.
Of course, there are not no movie buffs in the real sense, but there are only a handful of them, and they are probably just Jiang Wen, Uncle Ge, and Zhang Niangniang.
What, you said there are also Gong Li and Li Lianlian?
Don't be ridiculous, we are all Singaporeans.
By the way, Jiang Wen, Uncle Ge, and the others all filmed TV series back then.
Although as an actor, making movies is far more enjoyable than making TV series. But for now, movies are a scarce resource after all, and the domestic movie market is very sluggish. Everyone is still rushing into TV series. After all, actors
You also need to make money, and it seems easier to make money from TV series than from movies.
He Xin actually doesn't attach much importance to the reputation of being a movie star or TV drama star, but as a Golden Horse and Golden Rooster actor, he is undoubtedly already recognized as a movie star.
In the past, filming was for making money, but now filming is not only for making money, but also for fun, but at the same time, it is also intentionally or unintentionally paving the way for one's future development.
If the drama "Qiao Family Courtyard" can be successfully carried out this time, apart from making some money and becoming familiar with the audience again, other things do not seem to be very attractive to him, and
What it takes is a full half year.
So regarding the meeting with Director Hu Mei today, his mentality was very stable. It would be great if he could get it, but it wouldn't matter if he couldn't.
"Hey! Brother, handsome!"
Downstairs, when Xiao Luzi, who had already played the role of a driver in the company, saw He Xin's outfit today, his eyes suddenly lit up and he raised his thumbs in praise.
Since cooperating with Hairun, Sister Hong's Hairun Qianyi Company has also developed quite well in the past few years. At that time, it only had two artists, Jiang Wenli and He Xin, but now it has dozens of signed artists.
There are also junior managers under the manager, but there are only three of them, Jiang Wenli, He Xin, and Li Xiaoran. Sister Hong has always insisted on taking care of them herself.
Today He Xin went to meet the director, and Sister Hong naturally had to accompany him in person.
Now Hong Jie has also changed her mind. The Buick business car that Hairun Company supplied was now replaced by the latest Audi A6L, which has a displacement of 3.0 liters and costs over 600,000 yuan.
"Well, Xiao Cheng helped you dress it up, I guess. I like what you wear. You are so energetic and handsome!" After getting in the car, Sister Hong looked at him carefully and said with a smile.
After he nodded, Sister Hong said in the tone of a mother-in-law praising her daughter-in-law: "I'm just saying, Xiaocheng is here, I can save a little effort. It's great like this! Otherwise, I would be really worried about you
Today I have to dress casually to meet the director again. This is not good. You are an actor and you have to pay attention to your image at all times. At the same time, this is also a sign of respect for the director..."
As Xiao Luzi drove forward slowly, Sister Hong started nagging him again. He Xin remained the same, not saying anything or retorting, but just sitting there with a smile and listening honestly.
But every time at this time, Sister Hong would think of her own son who was in the rebellious period of adolescence. In contrast, He Xin, who had no father or mother when he was sixteen years old, was so well-behaved that she felt heartbroken.
I can't bear to nag and blame you anymore.
"well--"
Then, Sister Hong let out a long sigh, and He Xin felt relieved knowing that he had finally gotten over it this time.
"When do you plan to leave this time?" Sister Hong took the initiative to change the subject.
"The day after tomorrow! Even if you don't ask, I have to tell you that Director Xiaoshuai has already called me to urge me. If I hadn't been waiting to meet Director Hu Mei this time, I should have gone there long ago."
Speaking of Wang Xiaoshuai, in order to shoot "I 11", he spent almost half of the investors' money, but when he saw that he couldn't continue filming, he turned to "I 19" and started to face the dilemma of insufficient funds at the beginning of filming.
So while begging grandpa and grandma everywhere to raise funds, I could only speed up the filming progress.
Speaking of this, He Xin felt somewhat sorry. After all, Wang Xiaoshuai was his boss and leader, but now that almost all of his money had been invested in the drama "Wulin Gaiden", he really couldn't help anymore.
Give him a handful.
"Then if you didn't tell me earlier, it seems I have to bring Xiao Wang back."
The company was developing rapidly during this period. The original driver, Xiao Wang, was after all the son of Sister Hong’s old colleague. Besides, although the young man had little academic qualifications, he was very clever and could not be a driver for the rest of his life, so Lu Xiao came back to the company this time.
When he went to work, he temporarily replaced Xiao Wang's job as a driver. Xiao Wang was assigned to study business in the company's business department.
"Why don't you come here today? It's not the same if I report to you in person." He Xin said with a smile.
In fact, he had told the company two days ago and asked them to help book the air tickets. It may be that the company's colleagues were negligent and did not report the matter to Sister Hong. Of course, He Xin still had some emotional intelligence and did not expose this.
thing.
As for Lu Xiao, this guy is even smarter. Although he is driving the car for the company boss, as long as He Xin doesn't nod in concern, he will never let out a single word.
So when Sister Hong asked He Xin when he was leaving, he deliberately glanced at Xiao Luzi who was driving in front of him.
Sister Hong nodded, but then she stopped smiling, and her expression became serious and said: "I just got the news that regarding the choice of Qiao Zhiyong this time, Director Hu Mei is actually more inclined to Chen Jianbing. When we meet later, you yourself
I have something in mind."
He Xin was not surprised when he heard the news, because the original Qiao Zhiyong was played by Jianbing. And when Jianbing was filming this movie, he also got to know Jiang Qinqin, who played a couple in the movie, and finally developed into a real couple.
They are a couple. I can only say that Uncle Jianbing’s love life is really quite good.
It is said that Jiang Qinqin's reputation for beauty these days is no less than that of the old Turtle Dove in later generations.
It's a coincidence that these two beauties are actually married to scumbags named Chen, and these two scumbags named Chen are quite talented.
Of course Uncle Jianbing’s scumbag and Chen’s scumbag are completely different things.
Uncle Pancake is kind of a Chen Shimei type. Hey, why are all the scumbags named Chen?
At the beginning of the year, when He Xin and Wu Yue were filming "I'm Not a Hero", I even saw them in a couple!
As for Jiang Qinqin, He Xin didn't know her personally except for having met her once before at the Golden Eagle Award Ceremony. What impressed her the most in his two lives combined was her beauty.
On the contrary, Wu Yue has a high reputation in his mind because of his cooperation. He is a good person, good at acting, has a cheerful personality and is not pretentious. If Wu Yue had not taken the initiative to introduce himself as a Shanghainese, he would have always thought that the other party was
What about the grown-up girl from Beijing who grew up in an alley?
However, as fate would have it, such a good girl failed to find love of her own. No wonder she would shape Ling Ling so well in later generations. There is already a template for daring to love.
It can be seen from this that Uncle Jianbing is not only a scumbag, he is also a handsome guy!
However, He Xin was still a little curious about King Yan and couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you say there is a Mandarin-speaking 'Xiao Jiang Wen'?"
Sister Hong shook her head and said: "He has no chance. He was recommended by screenwriter Zhu Xiuhai, but the real decision-making power is only the producer and director."
After hearing this, He Xin could only silently mourn for King Yan in his heart.
While talking, the car turned into the gate of Beijing Film Studio.
"Qiao Family Courtyard" had already been formed at this time. As a direct descendant of Beijing Film Studio, director Hu Mei placed the temporary office space of the crew in Beijing Film Studio.
Since the reorganization of the Beijing Film Studio, a lot of space has been vacated here. Many film crews like to stay in the Beijing Film Studio in the early stages of preparation. The main reason is that it is convenient, whether it is auditioning (Nortel is next door) or renting equipment (in the factory
There are), including post-production (there is a special editing room in the factory), copying and printing (the photofinishing factory is also next door), which is very convenient.
Moreover, not all crew members can get a job at Beijing Film Studio. Generally, they are either big directors or direct descendants of one's own.
For example, the National Master, Director Chen, and Zhang, the bearded man who shoots TV series, often put the preparatory team here. In a sense, the preparatory team can be placed in the Beijing Film Studio, which is usually very powerful.
Qualified.
With Sister Hong's current connections and influence in the industry, and He Xin's current status as a celebrity, even if Hu Mei is optimistic about Chen Jianbing and has a bad impression of He Xin, she will not look down upon them. Being polite is a must.
of.
"Hello, Director Hu!"
Sister Hong and Director Hu Mei are old acquaintances. After the introduction, He Xin hurriedly stepped forward to say hello respectfully.
Hu Mei was very familiar with He Xin's image on the screen, and this was the first time she met him in real life. Although she didn't have a good impression of He Xin, her eyes lit up when she saw him today.
The tall young man in front of her, dressed in a strong British style, had a completely different temperament from the screen images she had seen before.
Why emphasize temperament?
Directors actually have a lot in common with actors. One of the more important ones is that they are relatively emotional. Because film and television works are a process of emotional accumulation and catharsis, it is difficult for a rational director or actor to make a good film.
of works.
Moreover, Director Hu is also a director who was born in a courtyard. The children of a courtyard in the capital are a group of people with distinctive characteristics. Especially those born in the courtyard like them, who were born in the 50s and 60s, compared to
Due to the special environment of the place, they live in an independent ecological circle. They have lived a relatively abundant life since childhood and have richer knowledge than ordinary people, which has created a deep sense of superiority in their bones.
This sense of superiority not only creates their strong character, but also makes them better at discovering beautiful things.
For example, when Hu Mei met He Xin for the first time, she immediately sensed a completely different temperament from him than Chen Jianbing, and the warm smile and sincere eyes on the other person's face actually made her shaken at once.
The impression of this person being unruly and unruly.
Of course, for a person with a strong personality, it is difficult to change the first impression of a person, even if it is an imagined first impression based on hearsay.
But the slight change now was enough for her to have a calm chat with this young man.
