After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn - Chapter 22
[Chapter 22]
Yan Sheng, the top super-popular superstar in China, the youngest Golden Crow Award winner in Chinese film history, and a three-dimensional superstar of film and television songs. When he debuted at the age of 20, he won the Golden Crow Award for Best Actor. At the age of 22, he won the Golden Lily as the Emperor with his first TV series. At the age of 25, he won the Golden Elephant Award and the Golden Chime Award for Best Actor with a main theme movie at the same time. The protagonist became the youngest Grand Slam actor in China. He will successively win three international gold medals in the next ten years and become a treasure-level actor recognized by the global film industry. He will also receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Oscars on his thirty-fifth birthday. Then at the awards ceremony, he announced his retirement from the entertainment industry and tied the knot with his same-sex lover Shen Yu.
Going back ten years in time, even if Yan Sheng has not yet become the entertainment godfather who dominates the global entertainment circle in later generations, even if he is not well-known internationally, he is still the top superstar most admired by most Chinese actors.
To tell a joke, basically in the past two years, every young actor likes to say that his idol is Yan Sheng when he is interviewed by the media.
Cheng Baodong thought that Tao Mu was also this type of person – at least Tao Mu’s “being kind to people” trait that Tao Mu has always shown fits this style of behavior. And he really has Yan Sheng’s style in his acting skills. But he didn’t expect Tao Mu to be unusually cold after hearing Cheng Baodong’s question: “I don’t know him.”
Cheng Baodong and Wang Boyuan had been in contact with Tao Mu not long ago, but they had a deep understanding of Tao Mu’s scheming. Knowing that this person has always been good at dancing with long sleeves, he is also very good at covering up his emotions. In other words, no matter what Tao Mu thinks in his heart, this person has always done a good job on the surface.
However, in the face of Yan Sheng, a top superstar with a “high utilization value”, Tao Mu’s reaction did not say that he climbed up the pole, but appeared rather indifferent – there was even a hint of impatience and hostility in the indifference. ——You
must know that this kid can respectfully address the master of “Lighting Teacher” when facing the lighting master. At first, everyone was a little frightened, but after getting along for a long time, everyone came out. Tao Mu’s “teacher” is wholesale and retail. meaning.
Anyway, starting from Tao Mu, the title of their teacher’s teacher has become so popular! But when he met Yan Sheng, a well-established “teacher”, Tao Mu didn’t get involved.
Something happened! There must be something wrong here!
Cheng Baodong and Wang Boyuan looked at each other. Cheng Baodong wanted to ask a few more questions, but looking at Tao Mu’s expressionless face, he didn’t dare to ask.
This time, Cheng Baodong can finally be sure that this kid is not without temper! It’s just that he exploded… a bit confusing!
But no matter what, Tao Mu finally won the approval of most people in “The Far from the River” with his acting skills.
After the initial break-in period, Tao Mu also realized the terrible thing about Cheng Baodong, the tyrant on the
set. Cheng Baodong and all the big names in the crew are in Group A, responsible for shooting big scenes and literary dramas that need to be polished. The assistant director and Tao Mu all belong to group B, and the main task of group B is to shoot some medium and long-range stand-ins and fight scenes.
Generally speaking, the shooting atmosphere of Group B will be more relaxed. However, this relaxed category did not include Tao Mu. On the contrary, Tao Mu was in a lot of trouble because of this arrangement. For example, when there is no drama, Tao Mu is often called by Cheng Baodong to the A group. There was nothing else to do when I went to Group A. I just squatted behind Cheng Baodong, watching the monitor and listening to Director Cheng tell the other actors about the scene. Fortunately, the filming locations of Group A and B were both in H Studio City, otherwise Tao Mu would still be there. Really can’t get over it.
In addition, because Tao Mu showed in the audition that he had a good understanding of the functions of various departments of the crew, it also made everyone realize that Tao Mu was ambitious. In addition to filming, Cheng Baodong will also talk to Tao Mu about some disputes over the scheduling and personnel of the studio, and even talk about all kinds of broken things that the director and the producers and investors must be tough when they compete with each other.
——Although everyone is a man from Yanjing who grew up in the imperial city, Cheng Baodong is different from an orphan like Tao Mu, who has no father, no mother and no background. Cheng Dao grew up in the compound since he was a child. Although his parents didn’t make much achievements, they were all rooted and young. Cheng Baodong has good luck. He has been smooth sailing since he entered the industry, and he has shot several masterpieces that are well-received and well-received. Naturally, he was held and respected by a large number of investors and actors around. This has created Cheng Baodong’s arrogant character more and more – it would be modest to say that he is arrogant and domineering.
Therefore, the feelings he had been arguing with Tao Mutao came out with emotion, and Tao Mu just listened politely. If he does what he says, he will basically be close to death.
Cheng Baodong saw Tao Mu’s disapproval, and suddenly felt a kind of grievance of “being treated as a donkey’s liver and lungs”: “I said you are very boring, you know. You said that your acting skills are so good, you are afraid of hair? If I have your acting skills , with your face, who dares to bark at me, and I dare to be tough with anyone!”
Tao Mu looked at Cheng Baodong very calmly, thoughtfully politely: “What does Director Cheng mean? , should I be with you just now?”
Cheng Baodong stopped talking. After a long while, he waved his hands angrily: “Get out! Get out! Get out!”
Tao Mu was already immune to Cheng Baodong’s stubborn character of “only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light the lights”. Wen Yan just stood up calmly from the pony, and slowly went to the bathroom to drain water. Cheng Baodong was furious when he saw it. I always felt that Tao Mu was no longer the Tao Mu who “couldn’t fight back if he didn’t fight back” when he first joined the group.
Sure enough, as time goes by, it will reveal its true shape! Sure enough, the city is deep!
Cheng Baodong turned his head and glared at Wang Boyuan: “Am I right?” Wang Boyuan touched his
nose and analyzed selectively: “I don’t think it’s alright. You speak so nasty, and Tao Mu didn’t say he was angry. Ask you politely. advice.”
Cheng Baodong’s old blood was in his throat, and out of the corner of his eyes, he swept to the monitor who had forgotten the word NG for the 108th time, but also had a smile on the face of the female number N, and suddenly shouted angrily: “What are you doing! What are you doing! You can forget the words while filming! How many times have you repeated these lines over and over again? Why can’t you memorize the lines in advance? Film does not cost money! Can you still act! If you can’t act, get out of here as soon as possible! Don’t think that you are an investor and I don’t dare to scold people!”
The little girl in the center of the studio was caught off guard, and was scolded and cried by the rabid director Cheng Da. !
* * * * * *
Just a week after Tao Mu joined the group, seeing that Tao Mu and the crew were getting more and more tacit understanding, Cheng Baodong finally decided to move the most climax of the movie to the front.
“…Our scene today is Chang Feng going deep into the enemy to rescue the princess. Tao Mu, you have to pay attention to your position and keep your face out of the camera.” Cheng Dao told Tao Mu, and then said to Wang Boyuan who was standing by the side: “You Is there any problem with the waist?”
Wang Boyuan covered his lower back and grinned indifferently. When he was filming the circus yesterday, he accidentally flashed his waist and couldn’t do much. However, there are a lot of close-ups in today’s play that must be taken by him in person: “I will try my best.”
Wang Boyuan said, his eyes swept over Tao Mu who was standing beside him, stretched his arms around Tao Mu’s shoulders: “You send My bruises worked well. I didn’t dare to move after I was injured yesterday, but I can go to the ground today.”
Tao Mu pouted, “It was also given to me by other martial arts brothers.”
“Big dog?” Wang Boyuan scratched his chin: “Speaking of which, he introduced you to join the group. But the big dog is not interesting! He only gives you such a good thing and not me?” friendship.
Tao Mu couldn’t answer this.
Wang Boyuan smiled and whispered to Tao Mu: “Tell me about how your fan turned over. I feel like I don’t look as good as you. Are you hiding something?”
“No.” Tao Mu moved his gaze to Wang Boyuan’s wrist and said bluntly, “Your wrist is too stiff and has no flexibility. Your gestures will naturally be inferior. I suggest you practice yoga in your spare time.”
Wang Boyuan: ” …”
Wang Boyuan stretched out his hand and snorted Tao Mu’s headgear: “It’s not cute to tell the truth.” The
stylist next to him screamed: “Brother Yuan, don’t move Xiaomu’s headgear, it’s crooked ah ah ah ah- Cheng Baodong ,
who was talking to the heroine, turned his head and glared at Wang Boyuan: “Can you calm down a bit?” Wang Boyuan
rubbed his nose aggrieved and stretched out his hand to straighten Tao Mu’s headgear. However, it was of no use, the stylist still pulled Tao Mu aside with a livid face and re-modeled.
The little girl who played female No. N in the movie came over and said, “Tao Mu, you seem to be very familiar with Director Cheng and Brother Yuan. I often hear Brother Yuan and Director Cheng discussing your play during breaks. Say you are in front of the camera. The expressiveness is very good.” The
little girl originally thought that her words would definitely arouse Tao Mu’s curiosity. In the end, Tao Mu just smiled: “Director Cheng and Brother Yuan are very good, and they especially like to help newcomers. So are the seniors of the crew, which have benefited me a lot.”
Tao Mu’s speaking habit has always been leak-proof. I would rather be long-winded than miss a person.
The little girl smiled, her eyes glued tightly on Tao Mu’s unbelievably handsome face after wearing makeup: “I also think that Cheng Dao and Brother Yuan are very kind to us. Especially Brother Yuan, who is so big He is a star, but he has no air at all. He usually invites everyone to drink and eat. Unlike Sister Ning, who always likes to stay in the RV when there is no drama, it is difficult to see her.”
Tao Mu looked strange for a while and thought about it. Think, still nothing.
The little girl didn’t realize that there was anything wrong with what she said. He asked Tao Mu again: “I heard that you have also been admitted to Jingying? Then aren’t you the same school as Dao Cheng and Brother Yuan? I think you will definitely have the opportunity to formally cooperate with them in the future.”
Tao Mu was pulled over by the stylist, and he didn’t dare to move his upper body. Hearing that, he just smiled: “Then it’s your auspicious words.” In the
summer season, the weather is very hot. Tao Mu was wearing a thick costume and a hood, and soon his head was hot and sweaty. The little girl took out a piece of silk handkerchief from her sleeve and said enthusiastically, “Your sweat is almost dripping into your eyes, let me wipe it for you.”
Tao Mu tilted his head and avoided the little girl’s silk handkerchief in time.
The stylist standing behind Tao Mu looked at the little girl with a half-smile, and reached out and patted Tao Mu’s head: “Don’t move.” The
little girl looked at Tao Mu with aggrieved expression. Tao Mu’s eyes looked at his nose and his heart, as if he didn’t realize it.
The little girl didn’t give up and continued to talk: “Can you teach me how to act? Don’t think that I graduated from Shanghai Opera. In fact, it is my first time to act, and I don’t understand anything. I am particularly worried that I will not be able to act well and delay filming. Progress.”
Tao Mu smiled humbly: “I don’t know how to act either. Although I was admitted to Jingying, but I haven’t reported
it yet—” Before he finished speaking, someone continued to laugh: “Yeah! Tao Mu hasn’t gone to school to report yet. Well, how can he know how to teach a little girl to act? Why don’t I teach you!”
Everyone turned their heads and saw Da Mao, Xiao Pang, Shen Yu, Ye Yao, Wan Meihong, Mu Huating and others. The human assistant stood far behind. What surprised Tao Mu the most was that the “eldest nephew” who replaced him from the “Legend of Heroes” next door was actually there.
How did these people get together?
Seeing Tao Mu looking over, Ye Yao crossed her arms, raised her chin and snorted, looking at Tao Mu and the little girl in front of him with a half smile. Yin Yang said angrily: “You really attract little girls wherever you go!”
Tao Mu said dumbly, “Why did you come here?”
“Didn’t you say that I’m coming to visit the class for you!” Shen Yu said with a smile. By the way, he complained: “I call you and you never answer, and I send you text messages and you never return. You can’t see Aite on Weibo. Do you really think you have removed me from the blacklist? Drag me out and brutalize me, so I won’t pester you?”
Tao Musheng sat on the spot helplessly, not even wanting to give Shen Yu half a look.
The “eldest nephew” also complained: “Didn’t you say you wanted to teach me to be cool? I waited for you for so long and you didn’t contact me, so I had to come to you.”
Tao Mu became more helpless: ” I really don’t have time.” He didn’t expect the “eldest nephew” to take his casual polite remarks seriously.
After a pause, Tao Mu asked the “eldest nephew” again: “Come here to visit the class, don’t you need to film?” The
“eldest nephew” snorted very arrogantly: “The crew is invested by our family, I will shoot if I want, no If you want to shoot, don’t be afraid. Anyway, I’m not the only one in the crew. Can’t you shoot someone else if you don’t shoot me?”
“Besides. Before you left, didn’t you sell all the videos you shot to Zhao Xin? It happened to Zhao Xin. If you don’t believe me, then let him cut the video himself, and I’ll just pose as you like!” The
“eldest nephew” said it confidently, and everyone present could only look at each other, especially sympathy for Zhao Xin, who was willing to lose his integrity for the sake of investment ‘s director.
Ye Yao squinted at the “eldest nephew” and complained with a pretence: “Speaking of which, we originally planned to go to the “Legend of Heroes” studio to find you. But I heard that your character was beaten. That’s why we came here. .”
The “eldest nephew” who directly pushed him touched his nose embarrassedly, and finally felt a little guilty and guilty: “I didn’t know Tao Mu before I took this role.
” Yao said something else and looked at Tao Mu eagerly: “When did you teach me to be handsome?”
Tao Mu had a headache.
Ye Yao was still unrelenting, looking at the “eldest nephew” with righteous indignation: “Anyway, your “Legend of Heroes” crew is going too far. If you didn’t go back on your word, Tao Mu wouldn’t change from a role to someone else’s martial artist.”
It really is a pot that can’t be opened without mentioning it! This is the shooting scene of “Far from the Rivers and Lakes”!
Shen Yu frowned and looked at Ye Yao, then at Tao Mu, and changed the subject with a smile: “Tao Mu, you look so handsome in this outfit. Shall we take
a picture?” I can only be patient and shut up. Some helpless glances at Shen Yu.
Shen Yu didn’t pay attention to Wan Meihong’s state at all. His whole heart was on Tao Mu. Afraid that Tao Mu would not agree with him to take pictures, before Tao Mu could speak, he had already brought his mobile phone to Tao Mu’s side, and started to save Jiugongge. Tao Mu was held in place by the stylist and did not dare to move, but reluctantly told him: “Don’t post it on Weibo.”
His current appearance is that of the hero of “The Far Away”. The crew hasn’t released the final makeup photos yet, so Tao Mu can’t reveal the image of the male lead first.
Shen Yu smiled and nodded, looking at the expressionless Tao Mu in the photo, and acting like a spoiled child with dissatisfaction: “Why
don’t you laugh.” Can’t find it!
Shen Yu didn’t care either. Sitting next to Tao Mu with a smile, he motioned his assistant to give everyone something to eat.
Wan Meihong finally found the opportunity and smiled at Tao Mu, “How are you doing?”
“It’s okay.” Tao Mu also smiled: “The gathering of celebrities from the crew really satisfies my desire to have autographs and photos with the stars. Besides, the director, brother Shi, and sister Ning are all very good people, and they taught me a lot of filmmaking skills.”
Wan Meihong looked at Tao Mu with a half-smile, it was rare that Tao Mu could speak such an official flattery with such sincerity and sincerity. . Sure enough, it’s a natural acting school.
“We have heard about you in “The Legend of Heroes”. To be honest, what Zhao Keping and Xia Xing Entertainment did is not authentic. If we replaced Qin Dynasty, this kind of thing would never happen. We Qin Dynasty Chao Entertainment still cherishes talents very much. I will never be willing to let a genius like you suffer so much grievance.”
Wan Meihong praised Tao Mu from “talent” to “genius” in one sentence. The global village, directly shoulder to shoulder with the sun.
Tao Mu also had to accept this kind of ability to create an awkward chat without a chance.
Fortunately, in addition to Wan Meihong, there is also a “eldest nephew” who is also gags: “I don’t know if Xia Xing Entertainment attaches great importance to talents. But I can guarantee that if Tao Mu is willing to sign in Xia Xing Entertainment. Star Entertainment, I will definitely convince my uncle to support him.” As long as Tao Mu can teach him all kinds of tricks for being handsome!
“Eldest nephew” said, and suddenly turned to Tao Mu: “What role do you want to play, tell me directly. As long as it is a project invested by Xia Xing, you can choose as you like.”
Wan Meihong’s heart jumped, Wan Wan Unexpectedly, such a Cheng Yaojin jumped out before her topic started.
“This gentleman…” Wan Meihong looked at the “eldest nephew” and asked politely, “Your surname?” The
“eldest nephew” raised his chin, looked at Wan Meihong with his nostrils, and sneered: “Long Aotian! “The
whole group was speechless.
Tao Mu sighed, suddenly feeling a little tired.
I don’t want to continue to scold Tao Mu, who has a name in front of Wan Meihong’s classmate “Long Aotian”: “When will you teach me to be cool? I tell you that my character is almost finished.”
Tao Mu continued Headache: “I really don’t have time. Why don’t I do this? My filming will be finished in less than ten days. When I finish filming, I will find some time to teach you before returning to Yanjing, okay?”
“Long Aotian” suddenly asked: “When are you going back to Yanjing?”
“I’m going to book a ticket for August 24th.”
“Long Aotian” made a decisive decision: “Then let’s wait until you return to Beijing. It just so happens that I’m going back to Beijing too, and the two of us just happened to be on the way.”
Tao Mu: “…”
Tao Mu was powerless to struggle: “I think the two of us It may not be the right way.” With the acting skills of “eldest nephew”, Tao Mu felt that when he returned to Yanjing, the drama of “eldest nephew” might not be finished.
“It will be smooth.” Long Aotian vowed: “Just tell me your itinerary. I will arrange the rest by myself.”
You arrange a fart!
Tao Mu was simply speechless. After thinking about it for a while, he still asked according to the procedure: “What is your name?”
“Long Aotian” looked at Tao Mu with a faint expression for a long time, and then complained softly: “We are both related, and you don’t even know me. What’s it called!”
What is the relationship between the two of us! Tao Mu was speechless, just as he was about to say something, he saw “Long Aotian” raised his chest and raised his head to report to his family: “Long Tianao.”
Tao Mu was stunned, and saw his classmate “Long Tianao” frowned and said, “My real name is Long Tianao. Do you know Long Keduo? That is our ancestor.”
Tao Mu was stunned: “Isn’t Long Keduo a surname?”
“It’s that Long anyway!” Long Tianao explained impatiently: “In short It’s settled. We ‘ll go back to Yanjing together on the 24th.”
Wan Meihong watched for a long time and couldn’t speak, and could only see the needle: “Tao Mu, don’t be fooled by him. He’s just Xia Xing Entertainment. A relative of the major shareholder’s family, he can’t get involved in the day-to-day operation and management of the company. If you really join Xia Xing Entertainment, you will definitely be assigned to Zhao Keping. I know that this time you must have been shamed by Zhao Keping. It makes me sad. Hey, what about this bastard Zhao Keping. All the artists under his hand are played by him like this. Don’t look at Mu Huating’s obedient and clever now, he was just assigned to Zhao Keping. When I was there, there was no shortage of—”
“I said Sister Hong,” Mu Huating, who could also be shot while standing, said helplessly, “Just talk when you speak, don’t take me as an example. I think Brother Zhao still treats me the same. pretty good.”
“You were abused out of Stockholm by Zhao Keping.” Wan Meihong gave Mu Huating a diagnosis without hesitation: “You forgot how you scolded Zhao Keping in front of the media?”
Mu Huating really couldn’t say it. Wan Meihong, helplessly shut up.
Long Tianao was indignant: “Who do you look down on? The big deal is that after Tao Mu joins the company, I will apply to be his manager. Whoever dares to rob me of resources at that time will slap him to death!
” master. Wan Meihong argues helplessly: “That’s not
what you said—” “Why can’t you say that? I want to say it! Not only do I say it, I want to do it!” Long Tianao said, grabbing Tao Mu His sleeves: “Tell me, do you believe me?”
Tao Mu’s head was big.
When the commotion was raging, Big Mao and Little Fat also leaned in front of Tao Mu and winked, with a look on my face like I had something to say.
Tao Mu was trying to avoid Wan Meihong and Long Tianao. By the way, I found an excuse to drag the two small hair into the corner.
“What’s the matter, let’s talk about it.”
Big Mao and Xiao Pang’s face flushed with excitement: “Brother Mu, the stocks we bought in the past two days have risen so much that they can reach the daily limit almost every day. The stock market is crazy. There are many Everyone is following suit. In my opinion, let’s invest some more money.” When the
two of them said this, they couldn’t help but complain: “I really don’t understand. The market is so good, why do you have to force us? Pull out the principal—”
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Wang Bo beckoning here from afar.
Tao Mu frowned and interrupted the two of them. “We’ll talk about this later.”
After speaking, Tao Mu walked in the direction of Wang Boyuan: “Master?
” The majority of the crowd asked with a smile, “Xiao Mu, is your friend coming to visit the class?”
Cheng Baodong, who was sitting on the director’s chair, also stretched his neck and glanced at Shen Yu and the others. His eyes were stabbed a few times on Long Tianao’s body, and he snorted coldly: “You are really not taboo when making friends!”
