Hei Province, a county-level city under Harbin City
The crew of "Crossing Guandong" bought a piece of wasteland and built a cattle herding village and part of the Yuanbao Town scene one-to-one.
It hasn't snowed yet here in Harbin. Zuo Le means to shoot the "spring and autumn" parts of the cowherd village scene first, and then wait until it snows after a while, then shoot the winter part, and then switch to other scenes.
In Harbin in November, it was already winter. Zuo Le was wrapped in a down jacket and chatting with Niu Ping and Sha Yi.
The scenes to be shot today are mainly the separate scenes between Chuanwen and Nawen.
It’s not much, but it’s very complicated. The actors have to go back and change their clothes from time to time, and some scenes require the cooperation of Zhu Kaishan and Wen Tainiang.
Among the two actors, Sha Yi and Zuo Le are old acquaintances. Needless to say, Niu Ping and Zuo Le have known each other for a long time, but this is their first time working together.
Looking at Zuo Le who was chatting with Sha Yi, Niu Ping was slightly absent-minded. What many people on the crew didn't know was that in order to play the role of Na Wen, Niu Ping pushed for an invitation to a skit in the Spring Festival Gala.
Her decision made some of Niu Ping's people and friends find it incredible.
Although the Spring Festival Gala's ratings and reputation have been declining in recent years, it is still the number one gala in China and its influence is still huge. Many actors are proud of the Spring Festival Gala.
Now Niu Ping actually refuses the invitation to the Spring Festival Gala because she has a role in a TV series and is not the heroine.
Even though this TV series is a new one by famous director Zuo Le, people still don't understand Niu Ping's choice.
In fact, Niu Ping was not very clear about why she did what she did at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that she was still unwilling to do so.
I was unwilling to waste a good opportunity because I participated in the Spring Festival Gala, and then helped another person step by step to the top of his career.
Before Zuo Le and Kong Wen co-produced "Story of the Cooking Class", Niu Ping was Kong Wen's first sister. Although Yan Ni was also a key training target in the group, she was always suppressed by Niu Ping and the other two actresses.
At that time, when Kongwen was rehearsing stage plays internally, Niu Ping had to select three qualified female roles before it was Yan Ni's turn.
Including the role of Head Nurse Yan in "The Story of the Cooking Class", it was only after Niu Ping gave up that Yan Ni took the opportunity to take over.
But this time, the two people's encounters had completely different changes. Yan Ni was valued by Zuo Le and signed a contract with Shanhe. She first became famous with Yan Nurse, and then became famous with the role of Ma Sanniang in "Seven Swords", and won the Golden Phoenix Award.
A good match.
And Tong Xiangyu in this year's "Wulin Gaiden" made Yan Ni even more popular. Not only did she rise to the top, she also had a high chance of winning this year's post-viewing trophy.
In contrast, although Niu Ping gained a lot of fame when she participated in the Spring Festival Gala, her career did not make any breakthrough progress.
People are afraid of comparison. If Yan Ni was not as famous as she is now, Niu Ping might be very satisfied with her current career status. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as what if.
People who like to read entertainment gossip news know that many editors like to take stock of secrets in the industry to attract readers' attention. One of the more popular ones is the series "Which actors missed xx roles/opportunities".
For example, "The Wild Princess Finds Her Father" became popular all over the country at the end of the last century.
The role of the heroine, Princess Wild, was not originally cast by a later actor, but was cast by a Taiwanese actress. However, the Taiwanese actress temporarily broke the contract and acted in another drama, so the crew was forced to replace the actress.
Unexpectedly, after the TV series was broadcast, it became popular in half of Asia. The actress who played the princess became a popular actress, but the Taiwanese little girl disappeared in the entertainment industry a few years later.
This kind of gossip contains a bit of face-slapping factor and a bit of fatalism, so it is very popular among readers.
But for the parties involved, this is not a good experience.
As for Niu Ping giving up the cooking class because of the Spring Festival Gala, because the creator of "The Story of the Cooking Class" mentioned it in an interview, it became the material of many editors.
Especially Yan Ni, who became a hit in "Wulin Gaiden", is the most popular TV drama at this year's Golden Phoenix Awards, and many editors tried their best to keep up the popularity.
Yan Ni ran out of news to write about herself, so she began to dig up related news. As she kept digging, Niuping began to play its role.
"The secret of the entertainment industry that you absolutely don't know, shopkeeper Tong almost turned out to be her"
"Because of the Spring Festival Gala, the actress missed out on "Wulin Gaiden"
"The rise of Yan Ni after seeing the future is almost another person"
"Learn to seize opportunities, otherwise you will be like her when you witness others reach the top"
"…………"
Let me ask, who can remain indifferent after seeing these news that ridicule themselves? Niu Ping doesn't have such an open mind anyway.
That's why she came to participate in "Enter Guandong", not only to make up for her original regrets, but also partly to compete with Yan Ni.
You, Yan Ni, can rise to the top with Zuo Le, and I, Niu Ping, can also become famous all over the country with Zuo Le!
…………
Zuo Le was not very clear about Niu Ping's psychology. He asked Niu Ping to play Na Wen mainly because of her acting skills.
No one knows better than Zuo Le how good an actor Kong Wen is. Niu Ping was able to suppress Yan Ni firmly and firmly take the position of Kong Wen's first sister. One can imagine her acting skills.
Of course, now that Yan Ni has been trained in many important roles, her acting skills have improved rapidly, and she is already considered to be a post-viewer. Compared to her acting skills, Niu Ping may be slightly behind her.
But apart from the comparison with Yan Ni, Niu Ping is still a very good actress.
Among the cast members of "Enter Guandong", excluding Li Youbin and Wang Yan, the two who are regarded as emperors, Niu Ping has the most superb acting skills. Even Yu Entai and Gu Xiaoge, two elites who have returned from abroad, are not as good as her.
Today's scenes between Niu Ping and Sha Yi, Niu made very few mistakes. As long as Sha Yi was fine, he almost did it all over again, which gave Zuo Le a good taste of Sister Kongwen's strength.
Among the many female characters in "Crossing Guandong", Zuo Le personally likes the eldest daughter-in-law Nawen the most.
Although there are many shortcomings, there are also many advantages. She is smart and scheming, unambiguous at critical moments, and has the open-mindedness that women can hold up half the sky.
In the whole play, the character Naven has three plots that reflect the characteristics of the character.
The first one is on the night of the wedding, when the husband’s fiancée Xian’er comes back, and Nawen faces the biggest crisis as soon as he joins the Zhu family.
Na Wen did not panic or make trouble. Instead, relying on his status as a former daughter-in-law of a well-known Zhu family, he made it clear to his husband that he believed he could handle it well.
Then he went to greet Zhu Kaishan and his wife with all manners and manners, saving all face, but Chuanwen and the Zhu family felt guilty.
The second one is the Mahjong incident.
At that time, Chuanwu escaped from his marriage, and the Han family and the villagers joined in running against the Zhu family. Zhu Kaishan held a banquet and gave away gifts and technology, but the villagers still refused to accept it.
Seeing that the Zhu family was in dire straits, Nawen took action and made a big bet with Han Laohai and others. He was lured by a small defeat at first, and then decided the outcome with the last move. He won a big victory and helped the Zhu family gain the initiative and tide over the difficulties.
Especially the words that Nawen said before leaving after winning the bet were very resolute and resonant without using any curse words, which earned the Zhu family a lot of face.
[I forgot to tell you, I was born in a noble family. When I was just over 100 days old, the old prince held me and played cards on the table. When I was three years old, he let me play cards. When I was four years old, my hometown courtyard taught me to crawl.
When I was five years old, I knew how to play twenty-nine.
The two dice are more obedient than my own son. I touch three cards in a deck. I know what they are without looking at them. I have only learned the code cards for three years. When I grab the cards, they don’t dare to give me the jackpot.
Come on, two cakes. I want the east wind and it won’t dare give me the red cake.
The cards fell to the ground. I knew it without looking at it. Anyway, I knew what you wanted to do just by looking at your eyes. Regardless of whether you win or lose, you can use the money to pull the car... I am flattering you by playing with you.]
The third one is when her husband passed on Wen and almost defected to the Japanese. When the couple met, Na Wen secretly took a knife and deliberately killed the national traitor.
In that era, it was very rare for a woman to not forget the bottom line of her family and country and to have the righteous intention to kill her relatives.
………
This role may not be as important as the Zhu family couple and Chuan Wu Xian'er, but it is still very brilliant.
Zuo Le was a little worried before, but after seeing Niu Ping's stable and excellent acting, he was immediately relieved.
Coupled with the well-informed Sha Yi, the subplot of the Zhu family boss and his wife in "Crossing Guandong" is considered stable...
