Chapter 135: Friends

Under Natalie's coaxing and deception, Zhang Chen had no choice but to agree to make a cameo appearance with Natalie in this episode of Friends. David revised the script on the spot, and Zhang Chen read it, but fortunately, there were not many lines, only two or three sentences, which was a sigh of relief.

The plot of this episode is that Ross wins a science prize and calls these friends to his awards dinner. And his unreliable friends didn't take it to heart at all, and it took a lot of time just to change the dress. And Monica has just fallen out of love, leaving a very inappropriate phone message for her ex-boyfriend, and then desperately trying to redeem it. In the end, after some tossing, I finally caught up with the story of the awards dinner.

And Natalie and Zhang Chen play a pair of middle school students who can't find a cram school and knock on the wrong door, setting up cameo characters to add to Rose's troubles.

Before the official recording, there will be two rehearsals. Zhang Chen nervously memorized the lines, and Natalie couldn't help but smile and said, "You only have two lines in total, where do you need to memorize it for so long." ”

Zhang Chen rolled his eyes and said, "This is nervous! I'm not like you, professionally trained." I don't believe you weren't nervous at all when you first acted in a movie. ”

Natalie shook her head, "Don't be nervous, what's so nervous about this." You're not nervous when you're looking at the CNN camera. ”

Zhang Chen was speechless, "This is completely different, okay." It's good to be yourself during the interview, but the actor is not playing himself. ”

Natalie held her chin in one hand and thought, "I have a trick to overcome the nervousness of being on camera, would you like to hear it?"

Zhang Chen drank water nervously, "Okay, you can talk about it." ”

Natalie said seriously: "Handstands, handstands help relieve tension, every time I'm nervous, I'm doing a handstand." ”

Zhang Chen was skeptical: "Really?"

Natalie said lightly: "Don't believe it, but there happens to be a sofa against the wall here, do you want to try it?"

Zhang Chen pressed the cushion of the sofa with both hands, "Are you sure this is useful?"

Natalie flipped through the script and said casually, "You'll know if you try it, anyway, it's still a little bit before the rehearsal." ”

Zhang Chen put his hands on the sofa and did a handstand, leaning his feet against the wall.

Natalie stifled a smile, "OK, that's it, hold on for five minutes." ”

Zhang Chen's face flushed, "Five minutes, it takes so long?"

Natalie looked back at him, her eyes lit up. Zhang Chen was wearing an AandF T-shirt and a pair of slacks, and the hem of the T-shirt hung down after the handstand, revealing a few solid abs.

Natalie whistled, "I didn't expect you to be in pretty good shape, by the way, it's better to close your eyes when you're doing a handstand, and think in your heart that I'm the best, I'm not nervous." ”

As soon as Zhang Chen closed his eyes, he heard a "click", and when Zhang Chen opened his eyes, Natalie was taking a picture of herself with a camera.

With his hands flipped, Zhang Chen returned to his normal posture and said angrily: "I knew you were playing me!"

Natalie's stomach hurt when she laughed, and tears came out of her eyes, "Haha, I didn't expect you to be so easily fooled." ”

After a burst of laughter, the rehearsal had already reached the plot of the two, Natalie wiped the tears from laughter, patted her face, and returned to her normal demeanor.

The plot of this scene is that Phoebe is soiled by the sassy Chandler and Joey, and Rachel has no idea what to wear to the dinner. At this moment, the doorbell rang, Zhang Chen and Natalie appeared, asking if this was Teacher Huang's cram school?

Zhang Chen took a few deep breaths before going on the field, he was not nervous facing the camera, but it was the first time for this kind of shooting, whether it was in his previous life or in his present life, it was difficult to be heartbroken.

Natalie looked at him and asked, "Still nervous?"

Zhang Chen nodded honestly, and suddenly, Natalie stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the side of the cheek.

Feeling the softness coming from his right cheek, Zhang Chen looked at Natalie in surprise. Natalie smiled, "It's a lot better now." ”

Zhang Chen's mind was in a mess, and he didn't know what Natalie meant. However, after this incident, the nervous mood did disappear without a trace.

After successfully completing the rehearsal, Zhang Chen also met all the leading actors in Friends, looking at their young faces, especially the young Jennifer Aniston, Zhang Chen felt that this time it was worth it.

By the time of the official recording, all the audience had already arrived at the scene, and when it was Zhang Chen and Natalie's turn to appear, the audience just sighed. Friends will have guest stars in every episode, but not every star gets the treatment of appearing screaming. In addition to real A-list names like Julia Roberts and Robin Williams, the audience's reaction was "Oh, he came to make a cameo in this episode."

Natalie, who entered the performance state, was completely different from usual, although it was only a cameo role, Natalie still quickly converted her state into a character state, and played a middle school student who only knew how to study. In contrast, Zhang Chen's ability to finish the lines with a stiff expression is already considered a victory.

Their scene was very short, only about a minute, and after the scene, Zhang Chen found that he was sweating all over, and laughed at himself: "It seems that I really don't eat this bowl of rice, so let's continue to mix in the Internet circle." ”

Natalie smiled, "It's not bad, but you almost pinched my hands red when you just held hands." ”

After about two hours, the recording of the episode was over. All the actors bowed to the audience and thanked everyone for enjoying this sitcom, which has been in existence for three years. Before each visitor leaves, they can get a small gift.

Zhang Chen also took the opportunity to find six people to take a group photo together, which can be regarded as fulfilling his small wish. Natalie and Chandler's actor, Matthew Perry, once collaborated on a stage play, so they quickly got acquainted with a group of people.

David Crawn, the fat man Natalie knew, whispered something to Natalie, who nodded and then shook her head.

On the way back, Natalie took the initiative to tell Zhang Chen that a movie called Romeo and Juliet approached her and wanted her to play Juliet, but she refused, because she didn't want to limit her acting path to death. But just now David persuaded her that it was better to take the play, because the script was brilliant. After listening to David's description, Natalie was a little tempted.

Zhang Chen suddenly said: "Nat, continue to be an actor, you will be a good actor, and sooner or later you will win the Oscar." ”

Natalie was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Okay." ”
