Chapter 224: Wood Beauty

"It smells so good!"

As soon as Cheng Hao entered the door, he smelled a strong aroma of chicken soup.

He Xin was busy at the door with an apron.

One of the things that makes the hotel apartment room type unreasonable is that the kitchen is in the aisle from the door to the living room, which is probably a reference to the design model of foreigners' hotel apartments, but the cooking methods of Chinese are different from foreigners, so it seems a little unpopular.

He Xin stuck to the cupboard and made way for Cheng Hao and her little assistant Chu Qing to enter the door, and at the same time said happily: "The cleaning aunt downstairs sent a five-pound old hen today, free-range, all of them are still laying eggs, and their stomachs are full of oil, and they are very fat!"

The cleaning aunt downstairs is still the same as when he was pursuing his girlfriend, and every time He Xin comes here, he will ask her to buy some local chickens, ducks, wild aquatic products and the like that are not very available in the vegetable market.

"Oh, it's so oily, where can I eat it?" Cheng Hao just wanted to lift the lid of the casserole, but his hand paused and said with a disgusted face.

"Don't worry about this, I've got all the chicken fat out and boiled it, put it in the refrigerator, and when I put down the noodles in the future, dig a spoonful and put it in the soup not too fresh! ”

He Xin slapped away his girlfriend's hand that wanted to lift the lid of the casserole again, and said to the little assistant who was about to leave: "Xiaoqing, don't go, let's eat dinner here." ”

"No, no, I won't bother. Chu Qing waved his hand politely.

"Oh, if you let you eat here, you can eat, and you're polite to me, anyway, you're going back alone. Cheng Hao came out after washing his hands and pulled her to say.

The little assistant's family is in other places, she finished her junior college in Shanghai, and stayed to apply for Lao Wu's company to become Cheng Hao's assistant, and she rented a small house in the city to live alone.

He Xin's current work mode in the crew is generally to start work around half past one in the afternoon, and then often have to shoot until one or two o'clock in the morning. Today is a rare afternoon without his play, so I have time to help my girlfriend cook a decent meal.

Take out the old hen that has been stewed for an afternoon, chop it after it cools, and add the dipping sauce prepared by chicken fat light soy sauce and chopped green onions, and put some chicken hair vegetables in the soup, and then fry a fried river prawn, a cold dish mixed with fragrant and dried maran, and dinner will be live.

Although there are not many dishes, there is a lot of content.

"Xiaoqing, you're welcome, eat!"

Chu Qing, the little assistant at the dinner table, was obviously a little restrained, He Xin persuaded him, picked up the chopsticks he hadn't used and put a big chicken leg into her bowl, and the other chicken leg naturally went to his girlfriend's bowl.

"New brother......" The little assistant looked at the chicken leg in the bowl and was a little uneasy.

"Xiaoqing, eat, he likes to gnaw on wings, necks and chicken feet. ”

"That's right, to be polite, just be in your own home. ”

He Xinle poured himself half a glass of rice wine, looked up and asked, "By the way, do you want a drink?"

"Xiaoqing, what do you want to drink?" Cheng Hao asked Chu Qing first.

"No, it's good to drink chicken soup, I've heard that chicken soup can prevent infectious diseases. Only then did the assistant gradually let go.

"Really?" Cheng Hao said curiously.

During this time, whether on TV or in daily life, how to prevent the epidemic that is still raging is a hot topic, including entering and exiting the serviced apartment, and the security guards downstairs have to take the temperature of everyone who enters.

"I've heard about it, but I don't know if it's true or not. The little assistant smiled shyly.

He Xin squinted a sip of wine, smashed his mouth and said: "I don't think there is any basis for this, it is true that chicken soup can prevent colds, and it is definitely not the case to prevent this infectious disease." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's true or not, as long as it's good to drink. Xiaoqing, you also drink more. ”

Cheng Hao picked up the soup spoon and scooped the chicken soup in the casserole, but after looking for a long time, he couldn't help but say, "Why don't you put some bamboo shoots in this soup except for chicken hair?"

She usually likes to eat bamboo shoots the most.

"Bamboo shoots were the best before March and mid-April, but now they are old and not tasty. ”

In his last life, bamboo shoots were produced in the mountains around his hometown county, and he knew how to eat bamboo shoots very well. Moreover, the bamboo shoots bought in the vegetable market now seem to be very tender, but in fact, they are all stored in the cold storage after being picked in advance, and the bamboo shoot shell is not very fresh for a long time.

The girlfriend pouted, looking like she was not satisfied.

During this time, she was also proud, and in less than a week, she filmed two advertisements, and more than 200,000 yuan was already in the bag, and recently their company helped her take over a TV series called "Unparalleled in the World", although it is only the second female lead, but the male and female number one are from Hong Kong, and the current very popular Zhang Weijian and Sister E. And the salary offered to her by Tang Ren from Shanghai, the producer, is not low, which is already very satisfying for her.

I'm in a good mood, and I've been deliberately pretending to be dignified, generous, decent, and so on, and I've stripped myself a lot, and when I get along with my boyfriend, I show my true colors, and I let myself go very much.

"Hey, how is your TV series going?" asked Cheng Hao as he took a sip of chicken soup.

These days, she goes out early and returns late, her boyfriend doesn't come back until midnight every day, and when she leaves in the morning, her boyfriend is still sleeping with his head covered, and when she comes back in the afternoon, her boyfriend has already gone to the set. Even if it's love, it's in the early hours of the morning, in a daze, and the two haven't spoken seriously for many days.

"It's okay, it's going well. He Xin said casually.

"Hey, I haven't even asked you, how is Li Jiaxin's real person? Is she as beautiful as in the movie?"

Even the little assistant on the side had grunting eyes, looking like he was ready to listen to gossip.

"It's pretty much the same, it's pretty anyway. He Xin smiled and pretended to be calm, and then said: "But she is really good, probably except for being more vigilant against reporters, she basically has no fight, and she works hard." ”

"Oh, she is a big star in Hong Kong, she doesn't work hard to get your turn?" Cheng Hao pouted.

"No, she's really trying. He Xin hurriedly said, "You think, our TV series is recorded in the same voice, which is not easy for a Hong Kong person, in addition to memorizing lines every day, she also has to memorize the Mandarin pronunciation of each line, and there are so many scenes every day." How many Hong Kong actors like her can do it?"

The reason why He Xin has such feelings is because in his previous life, he often saw the stalk of the weird Gangpu in the barbecued pork Fen on variety shows, as well as "I am a scumbag" and the like, maybe many people thought it was funny at the time, but he felt very disgusted.

Of course, this may contain his cynical and twisted mentality as a down-and-out middle-aged man who has achieved nothing. But he always felt that these Hong Kong and Taiwan artists wanted to make money in the mainland, at least straighten their tongues!

Therefore, compared with those char siu fen and slag Hui in later generations, it is indeed not easy for Li Jiaxin to be able to do this. Although he also knew in his heart that Guan Jinpeng's original intention of insisting on using simultaneous sound in live recording was to make the quality of the TV series he directed better, or to be different and show his awesomeness as a film director.

Sure enough, Cheng Hao looked surprised and said, "You guys are actually recording live?"

Most of these days, oh no, it should be that almost all TV series use post-dubbing, which is relatively simple in the filming process and the requirements for actors are not high. It's no wonder that in the later stage, there will be some bottomless Miss Digital or Mr. Number.

"Then your requirements are high enough!" Cheng Hao sighed, and then asked, "What about Li Jiaxin's acting skills?"

"Uh......"

He Xinyu plugged for a moment, groaned slightly, and said more objectively: "It's almost, it's generally okay." ”

"What do you mean by almost, it's okay, how is her acting skills?" Cheng Hao continued to ask.

In fact, it is no wonder that although Li Jiaxin is a first-line star in Hong Kong and Taiwan, she has always been known for her beauty. And after all, it was Sister Hong Kong's beauty pageant debut, and her acting skills at the beginning may have been really embarrassing, so much so that she was always considered a beautiful vase by the outside world.

This is a fight with Fan Xiaopang in later generations, and people pay more attention to her beauty, but few people know that Fan Xiaopang has won two international A-coffee film festival actresses, one Tokyo International Film Festival actress, and one San Sebastian International Film Festival actress. You must know that the only female stars who can surpass her in this level of honor are Gong Li and Zhang Yanyu.

Of course, Li Jiaxin is much worse than Fan Xiaopang in later generations in this regard, and the only award she holds in her hand is probably the Hong Kong sister beauty pageant champion she won fifteen years ago.

But as the saying goes, I haven't eaten pork, I haven't seen a pig run, after all, people have debuted for more than ten years, and they have made a lot of movies, especially the film "Dancing at That Time" with Guan Jinpeng before, He Xin once specially looked for it, it should be said that Li Jiaxin's performance in this film is quite amazing, and he did not fall into the wind at all in the PK with Shu Qi and the famous Japanese actress Momoi Xun.

She basically knows how to perform in this club. There will never be that kind of frowning, glaring, pouting, very low, and exaggerated performance, and there will be no crying scenes, like Yang Tianbao, who needs eye drops like this, those big eyes are staring at you, and tears will come.

But after all, this is "Painting the Soul"! It tells the mental journey of a generation of talented women.

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the star mileage of those female stars in this era is a handful of snot and tears, not to mention Pan Yuliang's era, as well as her extremely unbearable background.

If you want to show Pan Yuliang's pride and stubbornness in the context of that era, handle the love with two men who understand her, and the almost lily friendship with her best friend Omi, how strong acting skills do you need to support this character!

Maybe Guan Jinpeng chose Li Jiaxin to play this role at the beginning because of her amazing performance in "Sometimes Dancing", or maybe Lao Guan is confident enough to train her to be a perfect Pan Yuliang.

But there is often a big gap between reality and expectations, probably because of the tight filming schedule, because almost all the scenes revolve around the character of Pan Yuliang, and Li Jiaxin needs to play opponents with all the main characters.

For example, this time He Xin joined the group more than a month later than others, and the shooting time left for him was only a short twenty days, but he will still have time to cook a decent meal for his girlfriend like today, and then drink a glass of wine and chat.

And these are obviously luxuries for Li Jiaxin, even her little assistant complained that she had been in Shanghai for so long, and she was at two o'clock and one line in the hotel and the set every day, and she didn't have time to go out for a walk.

With such a high-intensity shooting, coupled with the fact that she has to study Mandarin desperately, it is difficult to have time to figure out the character and enter the heart of the character Pan Yuliang.

So in the performance, there is her consistent inherent pattern that beauty can directly shock your senses, but it is difficult to touch your heart.

It is no wonder that the Hong Kong media's evaluation of her is often glamorous, no matter how people don't get tired of watching it, but her acting skills are very wooden. It was even crowned as a "wooden beauty".

He Xin also felt this way after cooperating with her in a few scenes. Just like the scene where he and Zhang Jing met on the street for the first time not long ago, he didn't get that kind of feedback from the eyes of his opponents from the inside out, similar but not similar.
