Along the way, He Xin only remembered having lunch in the stone forest, eating dinner by himself, and then darkness fell, and the two cars meandered through the torrential rain and dense lightning, until they finally reached their destination at midnight.

As soon as you get off the bus, you will be greeted by a heat wave, as if you are back in the scorching heat of Shanghai, and Kunming in the cool morning is suddenly two worlds.

"Koga?"

Director Lu Yue, who had not slept yet, personally went downstairs to greet him, and when he saw the dark and thin He Xin, he was immediately stunned.

It's funny, when he first got the script, He Xin always wanted to talk to the director, but later because Lu Yue had been scouting the scenery here in Yunnan, he didn't see it. Later, although Lu Yue returned to the capital, he was busy with the casting of other roles, and He Xin had already taken over the play at this time, but he didn't see it. Today's meeting was actually the second time the two met since the last time Gu Changwei Zhang Luo had a meal.

"Oh, director!" After more than ten hours of turbulence, he didn't even have a polite mood now, and grinned at Lu Yue reluctantly.

He occupied a luxurious business car alone, not to mention the people who got off the Jinbei van, all of them were weak.

"Well, that's good!" Lu Yue patted his arm with a look of relief, and said, "The room is ready for you, hurry up and go upstairs to rest, if you have anything to say, we will talk about it tomorrow." ”

He still remembered that He Xin wanted to talk to him about it.

originally knew that he was going to a small county town on the border of Yunnan to film, and He Xin was mentally prepared for difficult conditions. However, he didn't expect that the conditions of the Dongfang Hotel where the crew stayed were quite good, and the crew arranged a suite with a small living room for him.

However, he didn't have the heart to appreciate it, so he simply took a shower and fell asleep.

The house soldier who arrived at the same time as him and his agent Du Peihong were whispering in the room at this time. Compared with He Xin's suite, the two of them live in an ordinary standard room, and it is also a room for two people.

"I inquired just now, and the crew equipped He Xin and Shu Qi with a special business vehicle for each of them, and they also had a suite for each of them. Look at the two of us! Why? Obviously, you are also one of the male protagonists, and you are not so bullying. No, I'll go to Liu Jing tomorrow and ask them to give you the same treatment as He Xin and Shu Qi. Du Peihong said indignantly.

"Brother Du, I think it's better to forget it, don't worry about this. Although the house soldier was also a little uncomfortable in his heart, he still hesitated.

Indeed, the accommodation conditions like today are still good in his opinion, at least much better than when filming "Jade Guanyin", and he didn't have an agent at the beginning, and he didn't squeeze a standard room with others, sometimes the transition conditions are limited, and he even slept in the Chase Shop.

It's just that today Du Peihong has been chattering in his ear, as the saying goes: don't suffer from unevenness. Gradually, he also felt that he was being treated unfairly. For example, on the way here before, he had a sore back in the van, and when he looked back at the Odyssey that followed behind, he really complained that He Xin was not kind, and at the same time he was even more dissatisfied with the different treatment of the crew.

"Bingzi, you are too honest, don't forget that you are also one of the leading actors, and you must fight for the treatment, otherwise others will bully you and don't take you seriously. You just have to leave this matter to me, that's what our agent does, you just have to act well. ”

"Brother Du, isn't this good?" the house soldier still hesitated.

In fact, he is also self-aware, after all, Shu Qi is a big star in Hong Kong, and although He Xin is his junior brother, after all, others are much more popular than him, and he is far more popular than himself in terms of works and awards, so what do he compare with others. What's more, he really cherishes this opportunity, after all, this is a movie directed by Lu Yue, and he is still one of the leading actors, he can't think of this kind of thing before.

"Bingzi, you don't understand this. ”

Du Peihong showed a strange smile and said: "They have watched so many actors before, why did they choose you? It's not because you have strength! That's right, I also know that this opportunity is very important to you." But it is precisely this that we must fight for what we should strive for. Before signing the contract, we begged them, but now that the machine is about to start, it is time for them to come back and beg us. Besides, our request is not excessive, that is, we demand that the protagonist should be treated. ”

"What if the crew doesn't agree?" said the house soldier worriedly.

"I won't disagree, if you lose your temper and stop acting, what will they do? You must know that the loss of the crew for a day is terrible, and they can calculate this account!" Du Peihong said proudly.

When the house soldiers heard this, they hurriedly said: "This can't be done, won't this tear your face with the crew? ”

"Hehe, soldier, you can rest assured, generally speaking, it will not come to this point, you can rest assured of this, I have experience. Saying that, Du Peihong muttered again: "But it's not a good time to mention this matter to the crew too early, you bear with it for two days, and after you shoot a few scenes after the start of filming, I will bring it up to them." ”

Looking at his agent with a confident look, the house soldier's heart was still a little up and down. He knew in his heart that Du Peihong was completely thinking about himself, and what he was fighting for was not only about treatment, but about his status and right to speak in the crew.

Does he want any of these?

Of course I want to!

In the past few years since graduation, he has been diligent in life and acting, but there are still few opportunities. His girlfriend and he are college classmates, and the two have been together for almost a year, but because they can't afford to buy a house, the two still rent a small house of only a dozen square meters.

At this time, he wants to be popular more than ever, he wants to make a lot of money, then buy a house, and give his girlfriend a decent wedding.

Therefore, although he felt that his agent's approach was somewhat contrary to his consistent principles of life, he could not say anything against it at this time.

I still heard the agent chattering in my ears: "No one is born a big star, Shu Qi was still a third-level filmmaker in his early years! Not to mention He Xin, if it weren't for Wang Xiaoshuai, I'm afraid he would still be delivering couriers on the streets of the capital at this time! Bingzi, you have this ability, in the past, it was nothing more than not encountering a suitable opportunity, but now that the opportunity comes, you must seize it......"

Finally, the house soldier secretly sighed and closed his eyes.

......

Although it was almost one o'clock in the morning when he went to bed, He Xin's biological clock still woke up at six o'clock on time, and five hours of high-quality sleep was enough for him to recover from yesterday's journey.

Pulling open the curtains, the dazzling sunlight suddenly shone in, and He Xin's eyes narrowed for a while before he could get used to it. The sun always rises early in tropical summers, which is a rare sunny day during the rainy season.

Only then did he realize that in front of the hotel was a wide river, and across the river was a city. He had checked the map before he came, and knew that the big river in front of him should be the Red River, and the city opposite should be Lao Cai, the capital of Lao Cai Province in Vietnam.

He Xin was very curious, although he had been out of the country several times, after all, it was the first time he came to this small county town on the southwest border, and it was the first time he was so close to the national border.

I ran into the bathroom to wash up, put on a summer style of sportswear and breathable running shoes with a matching trademark that my girlfriend specially bought for him this time when I went to Shanghai, and went downstairs to experience this small county town while running.

The county seat is not big, but it is different from the backward and dilapidated small towns he has seen along the way, on the contrary, it is still a thriving scene. The shops along the Red River have opened early, and all kinds of goods are satisfied.

There is a bridge on the river, and although there are border checks on both sides of the bridge, there is still an endless stream of vehicles and pedestrians on the bridge. It's hard to imagine that there have been fierce wars here for more than 20 years, and the two sides have killed each other to death.

It's just that He Xin couldn't run long after running.

It's too hot without him!

The sun here rises especially early, only more than six o'clock, it is already hanging in the air and scorching the earth, and the water vapor collected by last night's rainstorm is steaming, which makes people's bodies feel more stuffy.

He could only walk slowly back along the shade of the trees on the riverbank. There are not only shops on the side of the street, but also many stalls for breakfast and snacks, including Yunnan's famous rice noodles. However, there is a kind of rice noodles similar to those in Cantonese morning tea that attracted him.

Although the local dialect is jerky and difficult to understand, most people here can understand Mandarin. This kind of thing similar to rice rolls is called Vietnamese small roll noodles, roughly similar to rice rolls, and the filling inside is far less rich than Guangdong rice rolls, which is chopped green onion and pork filling, but the dipping sauce is very special, it is made of local millet spicy, soy sauce vinegar and coriander lemon, taste carefully, fresh and smooth.

Because he knew that filming in this environment required a certain amount of physical strength, two days before he came, he began to gradually let go of some diet, and try to eat as much as possible to maintain sufficient physical strength on the premise of ensuring that his weight does not rebound.

After eating a breakfast with local characteristics, he returned to the hotel with a relaxed gait.

"Hey, are you Mr. He Xin?"

When He Xin had just stepped up the steps at the door of the hotel and was about to push the door in to enjoy the cool air conditioning, he heard a strange tone from the side of Hong Kong and Taiwan.
