Chapter 68: Refusal
The script of this advertisement was written by himself in the summer, inspired by what he saw and heard in the film and television city, speaking of which, it was the first time he saw children fighting when he grew up, and later he also sighed that the boys now are more expensive than the little girls, squeamish, crying at every turn, and there is no manhood at all.
At that time, it happened quite suddenly, the summer was resting, holding the script to prepare for the next shooting, but I heard a burst of crying, looked up, and saw that I didn't know which crew of the two young actors, during the filming break, because of a toy fight, in fact, it was said that it was a fight, but according to the cold eyes of the summer, it was the younger brother who had been splashing and rolling, a little unforgiving. And the elder brother is much calmer than the younger brother, he is silent from beginning to end, no matter what the younger brother says or does, he doesn't even change his expression.
At that time, in the summer, I thought that this brother was quite magical, and he was quite old, and he was so calm at a young age, which was really precocious, and it was a bit too much. Even if the elder brother didn't do anything, the younger brother himself tossed and tossed, and several people from the surrounding crew went to watch, and even a few actors in the crew who had children, and there were also children about the same age as the brothers at home who took food and drink and coaxed them, I don't know if the younger brother felt that he was comfortable making a fuss, or felt that such a fuss had gotten the attention of adults, or felt that he was more wronged, and the tossing was even more energetic. As a result, those who went to coax the children returned one after another, and ran back one by one, lamenting that the children are becoming more and more disobedient and difficult to bring.
In the end, it was the father of these two children who came forward - this young father, who met in the summer, had dealt with him a few times, and met a few times, and the overall feeling was that he was a very gentle person, and he was quite surprised to see him appear, but he didn't expect that a person in his early twenties would already have two children so old. Little dad is the assistant of a big name, and he has worked with a big name a few times in the summer, and he knows what kind of virtuous guy a big name is, so he evokes this assistant, which is really powerful. Later, I learned that when the child had an accident, the little father was buying coffee for a big brand, and there was only one coffee shop in the entire film and television city, which was quite far away from the place where the incident occurred, and it was almost the same for half an hour to come and go. After the little dad received the news, he didn't even want coffee, and came back non-stop to coax the child, and it was a little late.
At that time, I didn't know if this father was troubled by a big name afterwards, anyway, as soon as he appeared, he coaxed his younger brother in three times and two times, and said that his brother was angry, and the two brothers were reconciled.
Originally, I didn't pay attention to this matter in the summer, but after two days, he took the advertisement for this children's skin care product, and after watching the planning of the advertising company, he felt that he was not very satisfied, it was completely a rigid and rigid mode, not touching at all, and after thinking about it for a night, he finally decided to go into battle himself and write this script. The decision was decided, but at the beginning he didn't have a clue, and he wrote a few versions, and he shook his head when he looked at it, not to mention those who played with words professionally. If it weren't for the little assistant gossiping in his ear later, saying that the father of the two children who fought that day was really pitiful, a certain big name still did it to him, not only was he scolded, but he also seemed to be beaten, and that little father also had backbone, and he slapped a big name in a big slap in a fit of anger, fired his boss's squid, and concentrated on going home to take the child- It is said that after the events of that day, many crews were looking for two brothers to film, and the young father decided to start his own business and work as an agent and assistant to his sons, and it was no longer the kind of life that looked at people's faces.
In this regard, Xia secretly praised the little father, being a man is like this, you can't always retreat, otherwise, some people will keep kicking their noses and faces.
After such a reminder from the assistant, Xia Xia remembered that there was such a play, and he suddenly had an inspiration and decided to write a family story that reflects brotherly friendship. Thus, this work was born.
According to Xia's statement, this script is his first work on the road of screenwriting, as for the quality, how bad his children are is also his own, others may not like it, but he loves it very much, and the baby is very bad. However, Xia also knows that he is two pounds, and he can't protect his shortcomings too much, and he still knows that there are deficiencies to improve in order to write better works, so he still accepts it humbly when others give him advice, so this script has been changed many times before it has the appearance of today's finished product.
Even if it is this finished product, in the eyes of others, especially in the eyes of those bullish professional screenwriters, it is estimated that it will also be criticized as incomplete. However, the summer does not care at all, and in his opinion, it is quite normal. As a newcomer in this industry, if he doesn't have any problems, those guys who have been in the screenwriting circle for a few years, more than ten years, and decades will seem too incompetent, so they just hang a white silk on their own southeast branches. Besides, this is just his interest, what he wants is not to win a false name as a gold medal screenwriter, but simply hope that the little story he conceived can be expressed in a way, it's as simple as that. Xia felt that he was more willing to create than what movies and TV series he participated in, maybe he would be able to write good works and throw them to Bai Xi to shoot in the future, on the one hand, he satisfied his enthusiasm for writing, and on the other hand, he could make some money from Bai Xi.
Of course, in the heart of the little pen friend in the summer, his main energy in the future will still be on the fields of Wanjiazhuang, and he can also work part-time as a doctor when he has time.
Before being reborn, Xia planned to let the little brothers star, because it was written according to the prototype of the two of them, and it was smoother for them to act, but he was rejected by the little father, it seems that he is not very happy to let his sons shoot commercials, although the pay is high, but the risk is not small, he doesn't want his sons to take on this at a young age. Because of the little father's refusal, Xia retreated to the next best thing and found the previous little actor. Unexpectedly, in the end, Xia still starred in this advertisement by himself, and by the way, Bai Zhongqiu was also involved.
Hearing Director Zhou's assistant shout "start", Xia immediately put aside his memories and quickly entered the state - this is why the directors and actors who have worked with him say that he eats this bowl of rice, why is he talented, when filming, he can quickly enter the state of the role, and after filming, he can also quickly withdraw from this state, which does not affect his daily life at all. This skill makes people in the entertainment industry envious to death, but envy is useless, people are born, and they can't catch up after a hundred years.
Although I didn't film for a while after being reborn, this feeling was still there, so Xia immediately entered the role of the younger brother who was slapped by his brother and played a little temper with his brother, looking at his brother with tears in his eyes and a look of grievance.
Summer quickly entered the role, Bai Zhongqiu was a step slower, mainly filming or something is still very new to him, although he is Bai Xu's number one die-hard fan, but he has also watched the film at home, as an investor, he has not even been to the scene. Even if they had practiced a few times before and summer, and had a few lines, they came casually in private, not formal at all, and Bai Zhongqiu didn't have any sense of oppression, so he couldn't count them at all. Speaking of which, this is the first time he has acted in front of a director, and it is absolutely impossible to say that he is not nervous.
However, there is a good point, that is, Bai Zhongqiu has put on an iceberg face that can freeze people to death all year round, which is similar to the appearance of the brother described in the script, but no one doubts that he has not entered the state now, and no one doubts whether he is nervous, but everyone admires the calmness of these two children, you must know that there are not a few children in contact with the crew, like Xia Xia and Bai Zhongqiu, who do not cry or make trouble, and are obedient and obedient.
Seeing Xia looking at himself with accusatory eyes, Bai Zhongqiu trembled in his heart, and there was a little trance, it seemed that he really bullied Ji Ji, and Ji Ji felt wronged. However, a trance was also a matter of a moment, and soon he came back to his senses, bursting out with a powerful aura, staring intently at Summer, trying to use his aura to suppress the other party. Bai Zhongqiu nodded in his heart while emitting cold air, it turned out that Ji Ji was like this when he was working, no wonder those who went to visit the class said that he was very attractive, sure enough, people who work hard, the charm value is quite high.
Looking at such a summer, the aura on Bai Zhongqiu's body unconsciously spread, and the look of not being angry and arrogant made the adults present feel a little unbearable, and said that the people of the Bai family are very powerful, and all of them have a strong sense of survival, even Bai Xi's adopted son is so powerful, can they still play happily together!
Although the script says that the brothers quarreled, the quarrel does not necessarily have to be the kind of quarrel between children, what you bully me, I have to find a baba complaint, what you break my toy, I want to beat you, and finally the words disagree and then get into a mess or something. Compared with this kind of noisy and brain-painful way of fighting, Director Zhou still prefers the silent confrontation similar to the brotherly cold war performed by Xia Xia and Bai Zhongqiu, so that it looks more level, and the advertisement will look good.
The more Director Zhou watched the summer performance, the more he liked it, he never praised people casually, he nodded frequently while watching, he felt that this was a gift from God, after Bai Xu left, this was the first time he saw such a spiritual/sexual, such talented child in acting, if he cultivated it well, his future achievements would definitely not be lower than Bai Xu. Director Zhou touched his chin, looked at Bai Xi who looked appreciative on the other side, and secretly wondered in his heart, whether he wanted to find a time to tell Bai Xi his thoughts, so that he could have a breath with the Xia family, it would be a pity that such a good seedling was ruined. As for Bai Zhongqiu, Director Zhou secretly shook his head in his heart, this kid is really not this material, although the style of domineering president is more popular now, but it will only be possible until Bai Zhongqiu grows up!
Director Zhou praised the two of them strictly, hoping that the two of them would also maintain such a state when filming officially started, and by the way, he told him to practice more with Bai Zhongqiu, the paralyzed face is indeed quite cool, but it can't be a paralyzed face from beginning to end, at least you have to change your expression to look good.
Xia smiled and agreed, he decided to wait until he went home in the evening, and used this to mock Bai Zhongqiu.
Director Zhou watched the two children get together again and muttered, squeezing his eyes at Bai Xi, and the two of them left the box one after the other under the pretext of going to the bathroom.
"Looking for Ji Ji to film, I'm afraid it's enough to choke, Director Zhou. Bai Xi raised his eyebrows and shook his head at Director Zhou, he was not surprised that Director Zhou would find him, but whether it was Xia Xia himself or the people of the Xia family, he didn't want Xia to take this path. Don't talk about the people of the Xia family, even he himself is not particularly happy.
"You mean it's impossible? why?" Director Zhou frowned, "Bai boy, this is a rare good seedling, if you cultivate it, it is definitely the second in Bai Xu!"
"Director Zhou, I don't know who I found myself? Ji Ji is indeed very talented, don't say it's the second my brother, it is estimated that he really takes this path, and it is even greater than my brother's achievements! It's a pity......" Bai Xi spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, "Ji Ji herself doesn't like filming, she told us very clearly about this, and the people of the Xia family don't want the fourth generation of their family to be an actor." This is not discrimination, but the future of the Xia family is pinned on Ji Ji. As the heir of the Xia family, he must bear some responsibilities that the heir needs to bear. Also, as far as I know, the second and third masters, as well as Ji Ji's two uncles, all hope that Ji Ji will be admitted to medical school when he grows up, and Ji Jide's parents, grandmother and uncle also plan to do so. Seeing that Director Zhou didn't plan to give up, and wanted to say something more to convince himself, Bai Xi smiled, "Old man, just give up, Ji Ji will not embark on this road." This time, if it weren't for my face, I would have pulled my son in again, and this ad wouldn't have been filmed at all. ”
"But ......"
"Bai Xi, what are you doing here?"
Bai Xi turned his head and saw that the eldest and second of the Bai family walked towards him together, and there were more than a dozen young men behind him, all of whom were quite familiar, and they were the little assistants of Bai Siyuan Law Firm.
"Big brother, second brother. Bai Xi nodded towards the two of them, "This is Director Zhou, the director of the advertisement that Ji Ji and Xiaoqiu are going to shoot." Director Zhou, these two are my elder brothers. ”
"Hello. Director Zhou and the Bai family brothers nodded, "Then you talk, I'll go back first." White boy, think carefully about what I just said, don't refuse too simply. ”
"What's the matter?"
"Director Zhou wants to pull Ji Ji into the showbiz. ”
"Impossible!" Bai Siyuan looked at Director Zhou, who was choking on his own saliva, "Don't fight this idea, the people of the Xia family won't agree." ”
"You ...... You guys...... Alas, that kid has a very good talent, can't you let him try?"
"There are many talented children, not many in the season, and a lot in the young season, so ah, Mr. Zhou should go to find someone else! Bai Siyuan raised his chin towards Bai Xi, "Go and bring Ji Ji and Xiaoqiu out, it's not too early, they should go home, I made an appointment with Zewen to take them to dinner." ”
"Okay, big brother, wait for me. ”
Bai Siyuan nodded, looked at Director Zhou, who was still unwilling, sighed, and said, "Old man, whether it is our family or the Xia family, we will not let the next generation of the family follow Xiaoxu's old path, if something like Xiaoxu happens again...... Take 10,000 steps back, even if we agree, Ji Ji himself is not interested in this, so you don't have any extravagant expectations. ”
"What a pity, alas!"
Although it was not the young master of the Xia family who came forward to refute it, the Bai family and the Xia family were on good terms, and the friendship between the young masters of the two families was also very deep, and the Xia family could hand over the summer to Bai Xi, which was enough to explain their attitude. Therefore, the Bai family negotiated with him as a parent, and Director Zhou didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
"It's a pity that life is short, so you still have to do something you like and live every day happily. Bai Siyuan, who had not spoken, beckoned behind Director Zhou, "Ji Ji, Xiaoqiu, hurry up, Uncle will take you to eat delicious!"
