Crossover Actors - Chapter 6
[Chapter 6]
Qu Yanting withdrew his gaze, stared at the white water column washing on the back of his hand, and replied, “It’s a coincidence.”
Lu Wen bent down to wash his hands, and said nothing, only two water sounds intertwined.
He lathers, rinses off, repeats twice, then dries. I picked out a hand cream from the silver tray, adjusted the cuffs and collar after applying it, and pressed my hair to the mirror.
After finishing this, Lu Wen noticed that the sound of water beside him kept ringing. He glanced sideways, saw Qu Yanting’s washed red hands, and asked, “Are you obsessed with cleanliness?”
Qu Yanting had no obsession with cleanliness and ignored it.
Lu Wen thought to himself that he might lose a layer of skin after washing. He looked at his watch and said, “The banquet has already started, don’t wait for you to wash up and leave.”
Qu Yanting said impatiently: “Since it has started, you are not Hurry back?”
Lu Wen leaned back against the edge of the platform. Before he came out, he was fighting the landlord in the cubicle. Just smearing and smearing was also to delay the time: “Don’t worry, I’ll come out and relax.”
The word “relax” hit Qu Yanting. Mind, why didn’t he come to relax.
“Are you nervous?”
“It’s a little bit, mainly because it’s a little annoying.”
Lu Wen crossed his arms and hugged his chest, and said, “I’m going to greet the actors later, I can smile sour, this teacher, that teacher, is four years older than me in college. There are many teachers who are shouting.”
Qu Yanting did not answer, but agreed in his heart.
Lu Wen said: “It’s not just, it’s more annoying. Those directors and directors are equivalent to the leaders of the crew. They have to pretend to be grandsons when greeting them.”
Qu Yanting thought, this is not bad.
Lu Wen added: “And there is a big boss today, so I have to hold it carefully.”
Qu Yanting asked, “Big boss?”
“Don’t you know?” Lu Wen said word by word, “Qu Yanting, the screenwriter of this play, has come to the crew and is attending the opening banquet tonight. He is probably drinking in the box at the moment.”
Qu Yanting said calmly: ” Oh.”
Lu Wen continued: “Oh what, it is said that Mr. Qu rarely joins the group, probably because he participated in the investment, so let’s take a look. As for who will see, I don’t need to say it?”
Qu Yanting said: “You still Say it clearly.”
Lu Wen said, “It doesn’t matter anything else, the soul of the whole play must be indispensable.” Qu Yanting
was genuinely confused: “What is the soul?”
Lu Wen replied, “The male lead.”
Dropped on top, soaking a piece of shirt cuff. He ignored it and turned his head to look at Lu Wen’s profile: “You mean, Qu Yanting came to the crew to see you?”
Lu Wen said, “What level of understanding do you have? Can you pass the language? People like to see who to see. , but you have come, you must see me, right?”
Qu Yanting was questioned for the first time in his life for his comprehension ability and language performance, he paused, and asked, “What should I do if he regrets letting you play the leading role after seeing you? ”
What do you mean?” Lu Wen frowned, showing a little grievance in his anger, “Hey, you ignored me last night, and now you say this again. Is it my fault for sitting in your Porsche? Got out of the car. Or do you blame me for drinking your Paris water? You wait, I’ll buy you a case tomorrow.”
He didn’t wait for Qu Yanting to speak, and suddenly woke up: “I see, are you jealous of me?”
Qu Yanting listened attentively: “What am I jealous of you?”
Lu Wen said, “I’m jealous that I’m the number one male.” I
met him three times and emphasized “the number one male” eight hundred times. Qu Yanting remembered that Lu Wen asked him who he was playing. Since the little actor was determined to take him as his companion, he deliberately said, “What if I was a special invite?”
“You can pull it down.” Lu Wenxiu was confident, “I have read the actor’s information sheet, without you, but also a special invitation. It’s okay to play soy sauce, don’t be embarrassed, since you can ride in the director’s Porsche, it means that you have a little background, and it is estimated that you don’t need to do it. It’s been too long for the eighteenth line.”
Qu Yanting couldn’t help it: “Actually—”
Lu Wen interrupted him: “Actually, you didn’t participate in the script reading today, so I guessed your role.”
Qu Yanting said: “The director invited I participated, but I refused.”
“You continue to play.”
Qu Yanting hinted: “The purpose of the reading is to digest the script, and I have completely digested it, so there is no need to participate.”
Lu Wen laughed: “I’m really convinced. You, the director doesn’t dare to say that you have digested it, you have digested it? What kind of stomach do you have?” “I—
”
“You can just say that you are the screenwriter of Qu Da.” Qu
Yanting frowned slightly, took out a tissue, and wiped it carefully The water marks between his fingers: “Am I not like a screenwriter?” After the
voice fell, Lu Wen turned around in Yu Guangli, faced him, and took a step closer to him with only two fists left. He smelled the perfume on Lu Wen’s body, the fresh citrus note, but was hit a little by the scent of the hand cream.
Qu Yanting turned his head to the side, raised his face slightly, and caught Lu Wen’s lowered eyes.
Lu Wen faced him with a stern face: “Do you think I look like a movie star?”
Qu Yanting: “…” After
that, Lu Wen staggered his eyes and glanced at Qu Yanting’s watch, and before he knew it, a quarter of an hour had passed. He returned to his original position and said, “It’s time for the chat to end. Have you finished washing up? Let’s go together?”
Qu Yanting said, “Let’s go first, after all, you are the number one male.”
“That’s right, then I’ll withdraw first. ”
When Lu Wen left, the dressing room was completely quiet, and Qu Yanting picked up the hand cream Lu Wen had used and squeezed a little.
He applied it leisurely, feeling the steady beating of the heart in his chest, and had inexplicably relaxed.
In the banquet hall, Lu Wenshan was late.
The huge hall is cut into small semi-open spaces with sets of screens, half-covered, with a table under each gilt-copper lamp. The vase on the table is inlaid with delphiniums, and there is a scarlet carpet under the feet. The light is warm yellow and dim, hitting the red patterns and blue petals, which is full of richness.
There is a row of daybeds in front of the window. The actresses’ skirts are dragging to the floor, and the actors are in suits and leather shoes. They sit on it in twos and threes and hang their arms and shoulders. Behind it is the night sky of the city.
Sun Xiaojian waited anxiously: “Ancestor, why did you go so long?”
Lu Wen took a glass of champagne from the waiter’s tray, took a sip, and said, “Meet someone and chat a few words.”
“Who is it?”
Lu Wenyi Suddenly, he forgot to ask the man’s name, and said, “The one in the Porsche.”
Sun Xiaojian said strangely, “I thought he was noble and glamorous in the morning, why did we chat again?”
Lu Wen said with satisfaction: “This time I Let’s get back to a game.”
Sun Xiaojian said: “Then don’t talk nonsense, hurry up and say hello to the actors.” There
are not too many roles in this play, the most famous one is Teacher Tao Meifan, who plays Ye Mu in the play . She is 48 years old this year. She has been in the arts for nearly 30 years, and has a place in the state-owned film studio to the national theatre. He has won the Plum Blossom Award for Drama and the Golden Lion Award for Drama. When he was young, he acted as a young lady and an educated youth.
The person who plays his father is Mr. Yang Bin, a national first-class actor, and a director of the Actors Working Committee of the China Television Association. Because there are not many scenes, he is a special guest.
The female No. 1 in the play is called Xianqi, and her name is very special. She looks like a fairy as her name suggests. When Xianqi debuted, she was well-known to the audience for her pure looks, and then she played some gentle roles with her own characteristics and limitations.
Lu Wen greeted him in turn, but he didn’t see the second male, Ruan Feng.
He didn’t see the script when he was reading the script, and he asked the director who passed by: “Ruan Feng has not joined the group yet?”
Xiao Zhang said: “Ruan Feng had activities abroad two days ago, and could have joined the group on time, but the flight was canceled due to the weather, and it was delayed by one day. .” The
actor was almost seen, Lu Wen walked to the window and sat down on the daytime couch to catch his breath. It was uncomfortable to drink a few glasses of champagne on an empty stomach. He wanted to eat something, but he was afraid that he would smoke the distinguished Qu Bian later.
Inside the box there was a smoky smell of alcohol.
There are seven or eight bottles of wine on the heavy big round table, the foreign one is Kruger, the local one is Wuliangye, half of them are empty. Surrounded by armchairs, the assistant director was admiring the producer, and Director Liu was biting his ear with a representative of the co-producer, all of which looked like they had been drinking for three rounds.
Ren Shu is in the main seat, Mr. Zhou of Haoyang Culture is on the right, and Qu Yanting is on the left.
When no one toasted or talked to, Qu Yanting was silent alone. When he raised his head, a suitable smile appeared on his face, shallow, generous and natural.
The banquet went on for 40 minutes. One toasted a glass of champagne and the other toasted a glass of white wine. He didn’t drink it, and no one dared to let him admire him. But he drank it all down, because alcohol made him relax.
The conversation at the dinner table ranged from TV, movies, and personal friendship with a director, to industry trends, policy changes, and the relationship between capital and literature and art…
Qu Yanting went in from left to right, thinking of Lu Wen in a free state, Lu Wen is so right, it’s really annoying to face these people.
“What are you thinking?” Ren Shu came over. Qu Yanting replied: ” Nothing
, I think of two hundred and five.”
Ren Shu asked again: “What two hundred and five?”
Qu Yanting added an attribute: “The fancy two hundred and five.”
Not even a smiley face. If Lu Wen knew his identity, what would happen to the truth?
The assistant director came around from the opposite side, bent down between Qu Yanting and Ren Shu, and said, “Director Ren, Qu Pian, the actors in the group are very excited to know that Qu Pian is participating in the opening banquet. They want to greet him.”
Ren Shu asked directly: ” Who did you promise?”
“How dare I be the master.” The assistant said, “All the agents have come to me, and I promise to ask questions. Everything depends on what Qu Bian means. If Qu Bian is willing, I will arrange them, only Don’t waste too much time with a toast.”
Ren Shu waved his hand: ” No.”
He grabbed the back of Qu Yanting’s chair: “I understand this, buddy. Unless it is necessary for filming and you don’t like to contact the actors, then Don’t bother, I’ll see you in the crew tomorrow anyway.”
Qu Yanting just figured it out, and Lu Wen was bothered for a long time, not sure if he would see a leader? They are all dressed up as male peacocks, so it may not be able to open the screen?
Two hundred and five must not be disappointed into three hundred and six?
He was really tired of looking at the people in this room, so he pondered: “Forget about the rest, let’s see the soul of the whole play.”
Ren Shu: “And this thing?”
Qu Yanting stroked the cold watch, but his tone was Laughing: “surnamed Lu, male number one.”
