It was drizzling and the plane landed slowly on the wet runway.

As soon as he stepped out of the hatch, He Xin clearly felt a chill rushing to his face. When he set off, he looked at the weather forecast, and the weather in Guizhou was about zero degrees, so how could he feel colder than in the capital? The wind was not strong, but the cold was seeping people, as if he was desperately drilling into the cracks of his bones.

He hurriedly trotted into the ferry, and Lu Xiao beside him couldn't help but shiver, and complained in his mouth: "I didn't expect there to be such a cold place in the south?"

He is a native of Xi'an, and he is also a northerner in the traditional sense, and he is particularly unsuitable for the rainy and cold climate in the south.

"Koga!"

"Yo, Brother Tong, why are you here in person?"

As soon as he got out of the gate, he met Li Huatong who came to pick up the airport.

Wang Xiaoshuai has always been accustomed to using the old team, production director Li Huatong and assistant director Niu Le are all old people when filming "Bicycle" five years ago.

Especially Li Huatong, it was he who recommended himself to Guan Jinpeng back then, and He Xin always remembers this love.

"Haha, you're a big star, of course I'm going to go out myself!"

Li Huatong smiled and stretched out his arms at him, and the two hugged each other.

Speaking of which, everyone is busy, and they haven't seen each other for two years.

After greeting for a while, I got into a half-new van driven by Li Huatong, and went all the way along the airport road to the city.

Probably because the weather is always foggy, looking through the car window and looking at the street scene outside, I always feel that the city is not only old, but also full of gray and blue tones.

Probably because of the vicissitudes of life here, the handsome director of the literary fan will never forget it, right?

After about half an hour, the car stopped at the entrance of a small hotel in the southern part of the city, almost at the junction of urban and rural areas.

The room assigned to He Xin and his assistant Lu Xiao is not big, it is an ordinary standard room, and the decoration looks relatively old. This may be the worst hotel He Xin has stayed in during filming in the past two years.

"The conditions are limited, I have wronged you, a big star. Li Huatong, who accompanied them to the room, said apologetically.

"What do you say, compared to when we were filming "Bicycle", the guest house of the new film studio we lived in was much better. To tell you the truth, when I was still renting a large compound over there in Sijiqing, I felt that the guest house of the new studio was in very good condition, with heating and hot baths, but I refused to leave. He Xin said with a smile.

Although it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. But for living, he really doesn't have high requirements, as long as it's clean.

Talking about the scene when filming "Bicycle", the two felt a lot of emotion, and this time it was a coincidence, whether it was the behind-the-scenes team or the actors, most of them were the same people who were filming "Bicycle".

It is Gao Yuanyuan who plays the heroine Qinghong, and the actor of the male number one Xiaogen is Li Bing.

The two chatted about the past, and Li Huatong said happily: "Then you guys rest first, I still have to go back to the crew to see, the director said, finish early today, and pick you up in the evening." ”

Lu Xiao had already packed his luggage at this time, but the guy frowned and was very dissatisfied with the accommodation conditions here, and said: "Brother, the quilts are all damp, I'll go out and buy some dehumidifier and lime or something, otherwise I will have to be sick if I live in this kind of place." ”

He Xin is no stranger to the humid environment, he lived in a small county town by the sea in his last life, and when the rainy season comes in early summer every year, it is wet everywhere and especially tide. Obviously, Xiao Luzi, as a northerner, must be particularly unaccustomed to the humid environment in the south.

"Okay, then you buy more, look back, and send a little if anyone needs it. He Xin said, took out a few hundred-yuan bills from his pocket and handed them over.

After Lu Xiao went out, he opened the window to ventilate the wind for a while, turned on the air conditioner, adjusted the warm air, and then closed the window after blowing for a while, and then went into the bathroom to take a shower.

Fortunately, the hot water in the small hotel is quite hot, and it takes a while until the skin is a little red, which can be regarded as washing away the fatigue of the journey and relaxing the body.

Xiao Luzi went out for a long time, he changed his clothes, made himself tea, sat by the window, and flipped through the script while drinking tea.

The window of the room is facing the street outside, the windows are not very soundproof, and the horns of cars, the noise, and even the faint sound of the vendors can be heard.

It may be that he has been in the lonely Gobi in the northwest for a long time, but he is not annoyed, but he feels a breath of fireworks.

Wang Xiaoshuai, the script of "Me 19", gave it to him early in the morning, and the role of Li Jun he wanted to make a cameo appearance was a young technician in the eighties, and he was the boyfriend of Qinghong's best friend Xiaozhen played by Gao Yuanyuan, and the two eloped for love. Most of the marks of the 80s in the film are expressed through the character of Li Jun, such as bell bottoms, flower shirts, toad mirrors without labels, underground balls, etc.

In Wang Xiaoshuai's words, the character of Li Jun is a representative of the rebellion against stereotypes in the context of that antiquated society.

The script has long been cooked, and before he knew it, his mind was deserted, and he remembered a conversation with Hu Mei, the director of "Qiao's Courtyard", the day before yesterday.

The impression left by this female director on him is quite imposing, and she is self-serving, and she is very similar to Director Chen in style.

Although He Xin only took a cursory look at the script, his understanding of the character of Qiao Zhiyong is generally based on the pancake version of Qiao Zhiyong, and the kind of over-the-top and out-of-control performance puts forward some of his views on the character, mainly that Qiao Zhiyong, as a banner figure of the late Qing Dynasty and Jin merchants, as the founder of a truly modern bank in modern Chinese history, should be a wise, restrained, and of course domineering character.

But director Hu Mei seems to care more about the domineering of the characters. It's right to think about it, watching her previous "Yongzheng Dynasty" and "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty", all of them are domineering characters. But don't forget that Yongzheng and Han Wuna are both emperors, how can you, Qiao Zhiyong, a businessman, be even more awesome than the emperor? What's more, it is also written in the script that just one head of the criminal department can pinch a businessman to death like pinching an ant to death.

Of course, domineering is also essential, after all, a sloppy male protagonist can't attract the audience, the protagonist is what the audience loves to watch, but this must have a degree. In contrast, the character of Bai Jingqi played by Chen Baoguo, who is also a businessman, is much stronger than the pancake version of Qiao Zhiyong.

Domineering is only the surface, and wisdom and cunning in business warfare are the essence of a successful businessman. It's not like a pancake, impulsive like a hairy guy.

He Xin didn't want to argue with Hu Mei about this, but the female director was too strong, and she was aggressive in her words, forcing He Xin to have to fight with her, and Sister Hong, who was sitting next to her at the time, had an ugly face.

How so?

Although the producer has a greater say in casting, when the director is determined, the producer is bound to give in. After all, when faced with the choice of a director and a male number one actor, many times the producer will stand on the director's side, unless you, the male number one, can carry the ratings alone, to the point where you have to be.

To put it simply, it is a sentence: He Xin, you are not here yet.

He also seemed to realize this in the argument with Hu Mei, and since he had offended the director, he simply let himself go. As soon as the conversation changed, his words were no longer as tactful as before, and according to his understanding of Qiao Zhiyong's character, he began to refute Hu Mei's points one by one, and finally even said that the other party was speechless.

Of course, the final farewell was still polite, and Director Hu Mei couldn't tell him in person that you didn't have any role in this role, but he just said that he would discuss with the main creator of the crew and give an answer as soon as possible.

After coming out, compared with Sister Hong's disappointment and regret, this product that is too addicted is still a little unfinished.

Although on the surface, to put it in a nice way, this is just a debate about art, but in fact, they all know that there is a high probability that He Xin will not have a chance with this play.

Sister Hong didn't bother to say anything about this goods, and after sending it all the way downstairs to his house, she waved her hand directly to let the goods be returned.

"Brother!"

After sitting alone in the room in a daze, Xiao Luzi finally came back.

The goods were sandwiched between two large bags and a paper bag in their hands.

"I bought both dehumidifier and lime and put it in the lobby. I asked the front desk, and the crew has almost covered up this place, and whoever needs it will be able to get it when the time comes. ”

This goods put down the two big bags, and as he spoke, he took the paper bag in his hand and came over to offer the treasure and said, "Brother, you taste it, it tastes great!"

"What's this?"

He Xin took it and took a look, and saw that the paper bag contained the kind of stuff wrapped in dough, which seemed to contain shredded carrots, shredded kelp, shredded cucumbers, vermicelli, fried soybeans and other messy things.

Xiao Lu Zi smiled and said: "This is a local snack called a silk doll." Brother, do you look like a baby being wrapped in swaddling clothes? Hey, brother, there is still sauce here, add a spoonful of sauce to it when you eat it, it is absolutely delicious!"

He Xin was also a little hungry, so he took one out of it, and according to Xiao Luzi, he added a spoonful of sauce that is said to be the store's secret sauce, and when he took a bite, he suddenly felt sour and spicy, and couldn't help nodding violently: "Well, it's delicious!"
