Chapter 385 Do you want to beat the mandarin ducks?
When he woke up the next day, He Xin still felt dizzy. He leaned on the head of the bed for a while and then got up to wash up.
Fortunately, there is no part for him today, so he can have enough time to recuperate and regain his health.
Xiao Luzi is very considerate. In addition to the usual soy milk and fried dough sticks, Xiao Luzi specially bought a small pot of steaming white rice porridge for breakfast today.
The porridge with fried dough sticks and the sweet and sour Damao melon bought in the supermarket gave him a rare appetite.
The fusion of the two memories is largely a fusion of thinking patterns, behaviors, and living habits. But in terms of food taste, He Xin still maintains the habit of preferring light food in his previous life. He does not eat spicy food and does not like heavy food.
Although I am nominally from the Northeast, I hate the so-called Northeastern miso.
For example, there is a snack that is particularly popular for breakfast in Guiyang. It uses freshly baked dough and brushes it with a layer of local spicy sauce and sweet noodle sauce, and then wraps the freshly fragrant fried dough sticks with one or two green spring onions. It is commonly known as Baobing.
Fried dough sticks. Because their appearance is similar to American hot dogs, they are also called Guiyang hot dogs.
Xiao Luzi, who comes from the hometown of Roujiamo, likes Guiyang hot dogs very much, but He Xin prefers simple fried dough sticks. Just like this morning, he tore the fried dough sticks into small strips and soaked them in the porridge to eat.
"Brother, do you want to go out for a walk?" Xiao Luzi asked after cleaning up the mess.
In addition to going to the scene to observe the shooting, He Xin also likes to go shopping and buy some souvenirs. During this time, he bought a lot of things, such as Miao embroidery with bright colors, skillful embroidery skills, and various patterns, made of natural plants.
There are wooden art decorations, selenium-rich tea that is said to have health-promoting effects, local snacks such as Luokousu, etc.
But today he was really out of energy, so he shook his head and said, "I'm not going. I'll give you a day off to move around freely."
Xiao Luzi's eyes suddenly lit up. He was having a heated fight with a long-legged external relations assistant surnamed Tang on the crew. He just suffered from lack of time and hadn't had time to take a substantial step. Today is a good day off.
Chance.
But he still seemed to be confused: "Brother, what are you going to do for lunch?"
"Okay, stop being so pretentious, I'm not a three-year-old child." He Xin waved his hands like he was shooing away flies and scolded with a smile.
"Thank you brother!"
Xiao Luzi hurriedly responded and went out with a small shoulder bag that was very popular at the moment.
Guiyang's winter is rainy and humid. Regardless of the weather forecast, the minimum temperature hovers around zero every day, but because of the high humidity, the coldness is so cold that it's bone-chilling.
Think about it, Sister Yuanyuan is filming a scene in the rain today, tsk tsk! He Xin is now wearing autumn clothes and long trousers, sitting in a room with full heating and air conditioning, having a cup of tea, a cigarette, and reading the script. He is so happy.
exploded.
In his spare time, he likes to read scripts as free novels, especially for someone like him who can receive dozens or even hundreds of scripts a year.
At this time, he was reading a script called "Beijing Smoke and Clouds". This was a script he received last year. When this script was sent to him, he rejected it without even reading it. The most important thing was that the schedule was not up to him
There was a conflict with "Seven Swords", which he had already accepted at that time, not to mention that he didn't like Zhao Wei at all. There was no special reason, he just simply didn't like it.
Before anti-Japanese dramas became popular, Republic of China dramas were once very popular, and some novels from the Republic of China period were adapted into TV series, such as Zhang Henshui's "The Golden Family", "The Cause of Laughter", etc. This "Beijing Smoke and Clouds" is also adapted from
A novel of the same name by Lin Yutang, a famous writer during the Republic of China.
Looking at the synopsis of the plot, it roughly tells the story of the emotional entanglement between three big families in Peking in the 1920s.
But after carefully looking at the contents of the script, I found that this is actually a drama with a female protagonist. The plot of the story follows the line of Yao Mulan, the eldest daughter of the Yao family.
So it is not difficult to understand how this drama hired Zhao Wei to take on the role of Yao Mulan, the female lead.
The person who originally invited He Xin was the male lead in the play, Yao Mulan's husband Zeng Sunya.
The character for grass begins with sun. He Xin didn't recognize this character at first, so he pronounced it as sun. Later, he was afraid of making a joke, so he checked it on the Internet. Fortunately, it was indeed pronounced sun (the first sound), which means a kind of vanilla.
name.
After he declined this role, I heard that the producer later approached Chen Kun. It turned out that Chen Kun had accepted the movie "The Sweeney" at that time and also pushed the play due to schedule reasons. In the end, he could only find him this year.
The representative figure of Xiaoxianrou——Naipan.
This 40-episode TV series was launched in November last year and is probably finished by now. He had never seen this TV series in his previous life, which made the script even more readable.
Although he reads the script as a free novel, he has a habit when reading it: whichever character he is asked to play, he will interpret the script from the perspective of that character.
Sometimes he would even write a biography of a character and imagine in his mind how he should interpret the character. This can be regarded as a kind of daily training.
Just as he was getting excited, his phone suddenly rang. When he saw the word "Sister Hong" displayed on the screen, he remembered that he had planned to call Sister Hong last night, but he had forgotten about it when he woke up this morning.
, as expected, drinking can easily cause trouble.
"Hey, Sister Hong, I happen to be looking for you for something...Hey, you said...what, Director Hu Mei is here to tell you?"
If Sister Hong hadn't mentioned Director Hu Mei, he would have forgotten about "Qiao's Courtyard" a long time ago. On the one hand, he didn't take it to heart; on the other hand, he had an argument with Director Hu Mei about the character of Qiao Zhiyong last time.
, the scene was ugly, and he didn’t have much hope at the time.
"Director Hu Mei said that she thought about it carefully and felt that you have a relatively deep understanding of the character Qiao Zhiyong, so she hopes that you will portray this character. The film is initially scheduled to start filming in March, with a schedule of about five months.
This period of time happens to be your free time, I think it's quite suitable. But the pay is a bit low, initially it's only 50,000 yuan per episode at most, there's nothing you can do about it..." Sister Hong babbled on the phone.
.
"Uh, Sister Hong, can I think about it?"
He Xin's brain was a little exhausted for a while.
"What, you still have to think about it...Okay, but hurry up, director Hu Mei is still waiting for a reply. It's just Xiao He, I think this drama is really good, I suggest you take it
Come down, if you refuse again, I'm afraid we won't have the chance to cooperate with them in the future."
"Okay, I'll try my best to give you an answer within these two days. Oh, by the way, there are two more things I want to tell you..."
Compared to learning this shocking news, the other two things are not worth mentioning.
As for the invitation to the Academy Awards, Sister Hong has already received it. As an agent, Chang Jihong disagreed with He Xin’s comments about the Academy Awards last time. After all, Hong Kong circles are still very popular in the mainland these days.
This time, since the Academy Award extended an olive branch to him, Sister Hong still persuaded him to accept the invitation, so that everyone could put an end to their grudges and turn their hostility into friendship, leaving room for possible cooperation in the future.
Faced with Sister Hong's earnest advice, he could only respond vaguely.
As for the 300,000 price tag of "I 19", Sister Hong was actually dissatisfied, but considering the friendship between him and Wang Xiaoshuai, she could only reluctantly nod in agreement. The main issue here is not the money, but the process.
A low price can easily affect He Xin's future external quotations and disrupt the normal price order.
The phone call lasted for more than half an hour. After hanging up the phone, he was no longer in the mood to read the script of "Beijing Smoke and Clouds" in his hand, and began to think about and digest "Qiao Family Courtyard".
To be honest, since the last time they met, he didn't have a good impression of Director Hu Mei. He felt that the female director was too strong and even a little willful. But today on the phone, I heard Sister Hong's story about Director Hu Mei.
In my opinion, I have more admiration for this female director.
Being strong means being strong, but at least it's still reasonable, and she really listened to what I argued with her at the beginning, and thought about it carefully, and she was really creating art.
It's just that if this thing hadn't happened, he would have taken a long vacation for himself during the seven or eight months between the filming of the current film "I 11" and the filming of "The Stone" in the second half of the year.
The main reason is that he and his girlfriend have been together more and less together in recent years. This time, his girlfriend is filming in Beijing, so he can spend time with his girlfriend. And it is also because "Wulin Gaiden" is being intensely filmed, so he has to do more.
Care, care, after all, for this drama, he has thrown his whole family into it.
But the main reason why he feels conflicted is that he knows very well that "Qiao's Courtyard" is a hit drama and will be very helpful for the development of his future career.
Moreover, the character of Qiao Zhiyong is not a big challenge for us. In addition, this character is still very lovable in the eyes of the audience. Do you think that Pancake in the Original Space and Time has ruined this character and still managed to win the audience's recognition?
, and still embrace the beauty...
Hey, no, this thing seems to have gone awry now. If I take over this role and Chen Jianbing is eliminated, then won’t this couple, who can be regarded as a model couple in the industry in the future, cease to exist?
Can you do this kind of thing of beating mandarin ducks with each other?
Thinking of Chen Jianbing's current relationship with Wu Yue, plus his little jealousy over Chen Jianbing's beauty, and his recent change in his impression of director Hu Mei, including the seemingly low price of 50,000 yuan per episode
This is not a mosquito leg, at least it is a chicken leg...
All these reasons gradually began to tilt the balance in his mind.
Sister Hong also told him on the phone just now that the two heroines who starred opposite him in "Qiao Family Courtyard" have not changed from the original time and space. They are still Jiang Qinqin and Ma Yili.
Although there was once a popular online entertainment novel in which the author who was a fan of Ma Yili described her as the first-generation scheming bitch, He Xin still had a good impression of Ma Yili.
The image of a typical shrewd woman in Shanghai once made a certain scumbag man feel ashamed with a wise saying: "Be patient and cherish it".
The most important thing is that after seeing "The First Half of My Life" and "Finding You" that He Xin later watched, she is an actress with online acting skills.
As for Jiang Qinqin, his deepest impression is that she is beautiful. As for her works... I'm sorry, except for "Qiao Family Courtyard", there seems to be nothing that impresses her.
However, out of a man's instinctive appreciation of beauty, and at the same time because of some dark, jealous, and unspeakable little thoughts in his heart, it seems that he is not interested in beating mandarin ducks...
A little man wielding a big stick instantly appeared in his mind.
