Crossover Actors - Chapter 12

[Chapter 12]

Lu Wen followed Qu Yanting all the way, entered the office and closed the door. He felt that he was a student who committed crimes. He was first criticized by the head teacher, and now he has to talk to the head teacher alone.

“Sit.” Qu Yanting said.

Lu Wen sat down and stared at the corner of the table with peeling paint. He still remembered that on the day of the opening banquet, Qu Yanting said, “I won’t regret it until I turn it on.”

He couldn’t hold back anything, so he opened his mouth and asked, “Mr. Qu, do you regret choosing me?”

Qu Yanting pulled out a chair at the corner of the table and met several times. , and finally honestly came back from the bottom of my heart.

He didn’t answer and asked, “Have you been hit?”

Lu Wen nodded: “Besides my dad, this is the first time someone criticized me so mercilessly.”

Qu Yanting put on Erlang’s leg: “Your dad is for your own good, and so is the director. Lu Wen said, ”

I understand Director Ren’s painstaking efforts, but does he have to speak to me in public? He’s still in a hurry.”

Qu Yanting said: “There are no directors who have won awards to deal with, and each has its own strictness. Director Ren is good at making life dramas and pays more attention to the naturalness of the performance.”

Lu Wen did not expect that Qu Yanting not only did not scold him, but comforted him with kind words.

Thinking about it now, when he was criticized by Ren Shu, it was Qu Yanting who intervened; when he was embarrassed in the classroom, it was Qu Yanting who called him out; now Qu Yanting doesn’t mention his acting skills, but instead enlightens him.

Could it be that Qu Yanting recognized his performance?

Lu Wen jumped up a little, stopped staring at the corner of the table, and looked directly at Qu Yanting: “Mr. Qu, you wrote the script, you know it best, what do you think of my acting?”

Qu Yanting replied, “Failed.”

Lu Wen’s expression froze, his confidence dissipated, and he stared back at the corner of the table embarrassedly.

Qu Yanting asked: “As for what, this is the first time you have been criticized?”

Lu Wen answered truthfully, “I used to play a small supporting role, and I had few scenes. I didn’t wait for the director to pay attention to it.”

“What about the upper part?”

“The costume drama “Wannianqiu”.”

Qu Yanting said: “That’s not bad, enough. What role do you play in a big-budget drama?”

“Male,” Lu Wen gasped, “…the bodyguard.”

Qu Yanting glanced at his watch, and still asked slowly, “This is the first time for this drama. The No. 1 man?”

“Not really.” Lu Wen replied, “Actually, I starred in a movie last year.”

He was embarrassed to mention that a low-budget thriller is quite shoddy. He plays the male lead, and is responsible for sheltering the heroine from the wind and rain, and expresses his infatuation in love to the death by the way.

The whole film seems to be in a meeting on the eighteenth line, and no one has heard of anyone.

The nature of this kind of film is self-evident, Qu Yanting hits the point directly: “Your dad invested in you?”

“Of course not!” Lu Wen immediately clarified, “It was invested by the heroine’s father, if my dad invested, she should love it I love it to the death.”

Qu Yanting pushed the boat along the river: “Why doesn’t your dad invest in you?”

“My dad…my dad doesn’t have that much money.” Really, “he doesn’t support me at all.”

Qu Yanting didn’t question the authenticity: “Why don’t you support you?”

Lu Wen replied: “He just looked down on me. From childhood to adulthood, he didn’t support anything I liked. What do you do, he says I’m not that material, I asked him which material I am, what do you think he said?”

Qu Yanting guessed: “Scrap?” “Damn

.” Lu Wen blushed, “You don’t have to guess. That’s right.”

Qu Yanting pursed his lips, squinting his almost uncontrollable smile, and asked, “Then you won’t listen to him?”

Lu Wendao: “Why should I listen to him? The more he looks down on me, the more I have to prove myself. What’s wrong without his support? Wouldn’t I also be the number one male?”

Qu Yanting smiled this time, the corners of his mouth twitching Get up: “Does your dad know?”

Lu Wen thought that Qu Yanting was also happy for him, and said unreservedly: “Of course, after I was selected, I notified him as soon as possible, and I told him, I will definitely prove my strength. Look at him.”

Qu Yanting: “Is there any more?”

Lu Wen said: “There are also small children, classmates, relatives, neighbors, and even the security guards in the community. I have notified the casting news of the cast and I immediately shared it. All chat groups, anyone who knows me, knows that I am the number one male.”

Suddenly, Qu Yanting said, “Have you ever thought about it, maybe your dad is right.”

Lu Wen was stunned: “Huh?”

Qu Yanting said : “Parents raise their children out of love and responsibility, but it’s also like an investment. You have a few pounds and a few taels, and your dad should be the one who knows the best. The rate of return is too low, so why do business at a loss.”

Lu Wenmeng paused for a few seconds : “What do you mean… I’m not popular now, and I may not be popular forever. Why do you decide that I will not succeed? Why do you decide that I will lose money when investing?”

“Then why did you succeed?” Qu Yanting asked, “It depends on your two scenes. Can’t you just shoot six scenes? With your emotional acting skills?”

Lu Wen suddenly choked, from comforting to chatting, he almost forgot his previous feelings, who would have expected Qu Yanting to go round and round and cut back to the main topic unexpectedly.

Before he could come up with an answer, Qu Yanting jumped to another topic: “There are a lot of little girls outside today, do you have any fans?”

Damn, it’s better to continue with the previous topic.

Lu Wen replied: “No.”

When a person loses face, their reason will be lost, and they will make more tragic behaviors. Lu Wen stubbornly added: “I have more overseas meals.”

Qu Yanting didn’t break it down: “What do they like about you, your face? Your figure?”

Lu Wen’s scalp hardened: “I think it’s the connotation.”

“Which aspect?” Qu Yanting analyzed calmly, “There are not many elite actors, you If you don’t even write homework, your grades in school will probably not be very good.”

Acting skills, popularity, education, Lu Wen’s key points were poked three-dimensionally. But Qu Yanting’s words were also true. Instead of being angry, an irrefutable sense of shame rose in his heart.

Lu Wen left the chair, thinking it was the best policy to go: “Mr. Qu, I’ll go back first.”

Qu Yanting raised his eyes and said in a very light tone, “Am I going to let you go?” How

dare the young actor disobey the big screenwriter, but Lu Wen is an exception.

The anger he took before and after burst out at the same time, and he fired guns in his mouth: “The legs are on me, I want to leave, why do I need your approval? You are amazing, I can’t afford to be provoked, but I can’t hide away? I’m bad at acting, You scolded me, I admit it, you humiliated me, why should I suffer? You want me to follow my words, right? It’s easy, you first add 100 million to my salary!

” Qu Yanting opened fire.

However, Qu Yanting still sat upright, neither angry nor annoyed, as if he had just listened to a passage.

He skipped the front and answered the last sentence: “Are you worth it?”

Lu Wen took off his jacket and threw it away: “I’m not worth it, I won’t serve you anymore!”

Qu Yanting picked up the school uniform: “You can resign, just pay for breaking the contract. If it’s fast, the crew can announce the change of roles tonight.”

Lu Wen didn’t want to stay for a moment: “Whatever!”

He turned around and walked behind the door, and just grabbed the door handle, Qu Yanting said from behind: ” Since you left my crew, everyone in the industry will know that you were replaced after you switched on. This will be the time when you are the most famous. You have sinned against me. In the future, no director in the mainland will use you, and no screenwriter will let you pick it up. his book.”

In other words, after being implicitly blocked, you can do it yourself.

Lu Wenton was there, holding his hand frozen.

Qu Yanting stood up: “But these are for later. When the crew releases the news of changing roles, it is more important that you share it with each chat group first, so as not to send children, classmates, relatives, neighbors… Who else is coming?”

Lu Wen whispered: “Security.”

With a bang, the strings in his mind were broken.

He lost his job as soon as he started, and was even banned to retire. How could he face the elders of Jiangdong when he went back? Especially his father, who can’t even let out his arrogant words, can’t he keep his head up all his life?

Maybe…

it’s better to endure humiliation in front of one person instead of being disgraced in front of everyone.

Released his hand, Lu Wen turned around tragically.

Qu Yanting patted the dust on the school uniform and said, “Come here and put on your coat.”

Lu Wen walked back and suddenly understood that Qu Yanting was not talking to him at all. The tricks humiliated him to the bottom.

He asked reluctantly, “Why do you still choose me as the number one male?”

Qu Yanting replied calmly: “You’re cheap.”

Lu Wen’s dignity was completely shattered: “Just because I’m cheap?”

“You know what,” Qu Yanting said, “your salary is less than one-third of Ruan Feng’s.”

Lu Wen’s whole body stiffened. It was the first time he felt embarrassed about money, and he couldn’t express his emotions. The chest is swollen.

Qu Yanting looked at his watch and said, “Anyway, it’s up to you.”

All groups have returned to their positions. Qu Yanting returned to the classroom first and sat in front of the monitor again.

Ren Shu said, “I didn’t see you and Xiao Lu just now. Did you open a small stove for him?”

Qu Yanting said: “Don’t blame me for pointing fingers.”

Ren Shu said, “Please come to watch the show, just to save myself some trouble. Well, Xiao Lu is not deep enough into the characters, so he has to help him find Ye Shan’s feelings.”

Qu Yanting said: “Try another shot.”

Two minutes later, the recorder called and shot the seventh shot.

When Lu Wen returned to the scene, the state change was visible to the naked eye. When the close-up shot was pushed, Ren Shu was satisfied for a moment, and before the first scene was halfway through, he praised “entering the play”.

Lu Wen was extremely aggrieved. In the face of bullying, he felt powerless, self-esteem and reality were fighting each other, and he could only succumb… He couldn’t tell whether he was playing Ye Shan or playing himself distractedly.

The first two scenes were successfully filmed, and in the third scene, Ye Shan was forced to ask to move to the corner of the last row.

The casting fits Ye Xiaowu, because Ye Xiaowu’s acting is not natural enough to be annoying. And the introverted Ye Shan is difficult to play, no matter which newcomer comes, the director’s hands-on tuning/teaching is indispensable.

The effect was remarkable in a short period of time, Ren Shu asked, “How did you tell him?”

Qu Yanting replied, “I can’t talk about it, but we chatted.”

Ren Shu is an expert: “Look at Xiao Lu’s true feelings, you can talk hard, right? ”

Qu Yanting said: “Remember this feeling, he can play Ye Shan well.”

He is very clear about Lu Wen’s crux. A rich man who has never felt financially embarrassed will not understand how distressed a book worth twenty yuan is; he will not understand the expression of forbearance in the face of humiliating someone with capital and going mad; an optimist who has never been trampled on his self-esteem , and will not understand whether the weakness is pain or itching.

What’s worse is an empathy.

After shouting to stop, Lu Wen didn’t get up, lying on the seat with his head stuck, like an eggplant beaten by frost.

Ren Shu was delighted: “This blow seems to be a bit big. Does he know that you are helping him find feelings?”

Qu Yanting said: “He doesn’t need to know.”

Before you know it, dusk is approaching, and the remaining two scenes are probably not a big problem. Qu Yanting stayed in the crowd for an afternoon, not feeling well, and wanted to go back to the hotel to rest early.

He quietly left the back door, and in the corridor, he saw Sun Xiaojian wandering back and forth with a kettle and snacks, like a grandmother waiting for her grandson to get out of school.

At the turn of the stairs, Qu Yanting went downstairs, just in time for the drama business to meet him from the first floor.

Xiao Zhang said: “Qu Bian, why don’t you go, have you called the driver?”

Qu Yanting said, “Well, I brushed my shoulders and stopped abruptly after going down two steps.

He stopped the other party, and Xiao Zhang hurriedly asked: “Qu Bian, you What is your order? ”

Qu Yanting said: “Lu Wen only brought his agent? ”

Xiao Zhang replied: “Yes, he is relatively simple.

Qu Yanting thought for a while, thinking of the phrase “it must be cool to sit next to you”, the bowl of hot millet porridge, and the overlapping silhouettes of Lu Wen and Ye Shan. He ordered: ” Assist

him with a crew assistant.” , until he was finished. ”
