In mid-October, "The King of Comedy" officially started shooting in Xiangjiang.

In the crew, except for a few leading actors, the other supporting roles are all found from the Xiangjiang Actors Guild, and there are even some people who have been upgraded from extras to small dragons.

Zhou Xingchi handed over the task of selecting supporting roles to Han Qiu, and Han Qiu came up with such a lineup.

It's nothing special, Han Qiu thinks it's more down-to-earth.

They are all market characters, they are all people who struggle for life, and they are numb for life....

On this day, on a set in Huanyu, the crew was filming, and Liang Chaowei's only cameo shot was here.

At that time, Lin Xiaoming heard that Han Qiu wanted to borrow the set, so he agreed without saying a word. also helped Han Qiu solve many trivial things inside and out. Including props, group performances, and the like.

At this moment, in this abandoned Catholic church that was reduced to a set, Zhou Xingchi was wearing a priest's clothes, holding a Bible, and was making preparations. Liang Chaowei was wearing a vest and sitting gracefully on the side.

"Director Han, it turns out that you also want to make a cameo. Liang Chaowei said to Han Qiu.

"What kind of cameo am I? Han Qiu replied.

This time he played a role in the movie, and his identity is also a director, but he has a lot more lines than Liang Chaowei.

Yuan Meng walked over and interrupted the conversation between the two: "Han Qiu, it's OK." ”

Han Qiu nodded: "Okay, let's start." ”

Lights, props, actors in place....

"Action!" Han Qiu said.

The show officially began.

Zhou Xingchi plays a depressed dragon in the movie, who has always dreamed of becoming a real actor and wants to conquer everyone with his acting skills.

And Karen Mok plays a well-known action actress.

This scene is Zhou Xingchi coming to Mok Wenwei's play to play tricks, but Zhou Xingchi did bad things with good intentions and messed up other people's plays.

He played a corpse, but he couldn't die no matter how he died, and said that it was caused by the character's naughty personality, so he should act like this.

Therefore, Zhou Xingchi was honorably invited out by Han Qiu, who is the director. And he was replaced by Liang Chaowei.

Liang Chaowei's cameo in The King of Comedy is also a trick. However, he is more obedient than Zhou Xingchi, acting as a corpse is a corpse, and he doesn't move.

After this scene, Liang Chaowei's cameo career ended.

"Director Han, I'll go home first. Liang Chaowei greeted.

Han Qiu nodded: "Okay, I'll send you." ”

The two walked out of the set, and Liang Chaowei suddenly asked, "Director Han, how was my performance just now?"

Han Qiu smiled and asked, "Which one are you asking?"

Liang Chaowei was stunned, and then remembered that the scene just now was a play within a play, and there were two characters.

came back to his senses, and Liang Chaowei kicked the ball back again: "Which role do you think is better?"

Han Qiu rolled his eyes and said, "You are the most realistic when you play the corpse." ”

Liang Chaowei couldn't cry or laugh: "Acting a corpse is like this, what tricks can you perform? Is it like Zhou Xingchi, acting like you can't die?"

Speaking of Zhou Xingchi, Liang Chaowei's voice slowly lowered again: "This seems to be the first time I have cooperated with Zhou Xingchi, right? ”

"Didn't you make a cameo last time when you were Truman?"

"You said that, that scene, I didn't even meet him, don't count. Liang Chaowei shook his head.

His cameo appearance in Truman was the audience in front of the TV, and Zhou Xingchi performed in the TV. When Han Qiu was filming Liang Chaowei's scene at that time, Zhou Xingchi's role was over.

"I can't tell. Han Qiu said with a smile: "In the future, Zhou Xingchi will come out to be a director, you can go to his movies to act." Wouldn't that be able to cooperate?"

Liang Chaowei, you sighed: "It's no fun." ”

He waved his hand: "By the time Zhou Xingchi comes back, it is estimated that I have already withdrawn from the rivers and lakes for many years." Besides, I'm not suitable for nonsensical comedy. ”

Han Qiu wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Liang Chaowei.

"Okay, Director Han, let's send it here, I'll go back by myself. Everyone is still waiting for you inside, don't delay your business. ”

After speaking, Liang Chaowei reached out and pulled the vest on his body, patted Han Qiu's shoulder, and left in style, disappearing into the busy street.

Looking at Liang Chaowei's lonely back, Han Qiu's eyes suddenly became in a trance, and memories poured out like a tide.

He vaguely saw Liang Chaowei back then, uh no, Chen Yongren. He also left the police academy with such a lonely and reluctant back.

Since then, a policeman has fallen into the underworld.

But now, it seems that an actor has stepped out of the rivers and lakes.

"Okay, don't look at it, it's gone. Yuan Meng's clear voice suddenly sounded in Han Qiu's ears.

"Oh.... Huh, why did you get here?"

"I'm not going to come again, are you going to stand here all afternoon?"

Han Qiu smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, let's go back now." ”

Yuan Meng looked at the back of Han Qiu who turned to leave, and looked back outside, but he didn't see Liang Chaowei's figure.

"These two guys, it's strange, they were drunk the other night. Yuan Meng muttered.

.....

Filming continues.

After Zhou Xingchi messed up Mok Wenwei's scene, he was kicked out of the set by Han Qiu and left in disgrace.

When he passed by Xu Mengda's side, he stretched out his hand and wanted a bowl of boxed lunch.

"What are you doing?" Xu Mengda didn't raise his head and stopped Zhou Xingchi.

"Hello big brother, I just want to get a boxed lunch. ”

"It's not time yet. ”

"It's not.... Because I'm going first, so..."

"Then you can go!" Xu Mengda's tone was not good, he stared at Zhou Xingchi with an unhappy face, and scolded, "Do you know why you can't eat? It's because of you, you can't die anymore, and everyone has no food!"

The more Xu Mengda spoke, the more excited he became, as if he had some deep hatred with Zhou Xingchi.

Han Qiu was standing beside Yuan Meng and nodded with satisfaction. Xu Mengda has been with Zhou Xingchi for so many years, and his acting skills are getting better and better. He heard that Xu Mengda won the Best Supporting Actor at the Xiangjiang Academy Awards once.

However, compared to Zhou Xingchi's acting skills, Xu Mengda is still a little weaker....

Thinking of this, Han Qiu's eyes froze, and his eyes stared at the camera without blinking, for fear of missing the following clip.

I saw Xu Mengda pick up a boxed lunch, slam it on the ground, and fell next to a stray dog, the food in it spilled on the ground, and was bitten into the mouth by the puppy.

"Don't you really want to eat, go eat with it!" Xu Mengda yelled.

Zhou Xingchi's face was a little ugly, in the face of Xu Mengda's insults and humiliation, he forced a smile, walked past him silently, and when he left, he also glanced at the scraps on the ground.

Unexpectedly, Xu Mengda saw Zhou Xian's groveling appearance, continued to insult, and sang: ", you are a puddle of!"

Zhou Xingchi turned his back to this Xu Mengda, still smiling, but his smile became more and more stiff.

"You're a puddle of, and life is cheaper than ants. ”

Zhou Xingchi couldn't laugh anymore.

"I'm sitting in a Mercedes, you pick your nose!"

Zhou Xingchi's smile disappeared completely, his eyes began to moisten, with tears, and the pace under his feet became faster and faster.

Until the moment he stepped out of the camera, tears seemed to be about to burst out of his eyes. But he blinked vigorously and held back his tears.

Later, Xu Mengda was still scolding: "If you want to eat, go eat!"

Outside the field, many staff members, including Yuan Meng, all looked at all this in a daze.

Although they knew the plot, they didn't expect it to be like this.

How did it suddenly become like this when I played the corpse in the church.....

"Cut!" Han Qiu greeted, and Xu Mengda's scolding appearance was restrained.

However, Zhou Xingchi's eye circles are still a little red.

Yuan Meng handed over a tissue: "Are you okay?"

Zhou Xingchi took the tissue, but rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, "Thank you, I'm fine." ”

Seeing Xu Mengda coming over with a sigh on his face, Yuan Meng was slightly dismayed, and teased: "Uncle Xu, you scolded very happily just now, didn't you practice less?"

"Practice?" Xu Mengda smiled bitterly: "Where does this need to practice, I have heard it more than once before." ”

"What? When you were filming before, someone else said this line?"

"Yes. Xu Mengda nodded, "It's just that this is not a line, and it was not filming at that time." ”

"Huh?"

Zhou Xingchi sighed softly: "This is what really happened. ”

Hearing this, Yuan Meng's eyes instantly widened, and she waved her hand unprepared: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ..... just now"

"It's okay, it was all years ago. ”

The embarrassment on Yuan Meng's face became even stronger.

She finally understood why Xu Mengda's performance was so excited and irritable, and she also understood that the tears in the corners of Zhou Xingchi's eyes just now were not squeezed out, but probably because they touched the scene and felt it...

Han Qiu shook his head helplessly, stepped forward and said, "Let's rest for a while before shooting." ”

Zhou Xingchi knew that he was using too much force and was not in the state, so he did not refuse Han Qiu's suggestion.

After Han Qiu instructed the crew to rest temporarily, he and Zhou Xingchi walked to the position where Xu Mengda was performing just now and sat down.

Zhou Xingchi saw a large pile of boxed lunches next to him, and smiled a little bitterly.

"The days must have been very hard back then..."Han Qiu asked intentionally or unintentionally.

Zhou Xingchi shook his head: "It was very hard at that time, but it has also been very hard in the past ten years. It's just that the hard work at that time was inaction, and the hard work of these years finally paid off. ”

Han Qiu was speechless.

"Director Han, do you know? At that time, I was kicked out by the crew because of a mistake, and I also affected Meng Da. We both wanted a boxed lunch, but were scolded by the field attendant. That field service was just like Meng Da scolded before. ”

Han Qiu continued to listen.

"Director Han, you know, I don't have a very good temper, and when I was filming with Director Ye, I also scolded the staff. If it weren't for Director Ye not minding, I guess not many people would be willing to cooperate with me, right?" Zhou Xingchi said lightly: "Maybe it's because I've been scolded too much before, and then I want to learn from others and spill my anger on others." ”

"Director Han, do you know which movie I made the most indulgent?"

"Huh?"

"It's time to shoot the God of Food. Zhou Xingchi said with a smile: "At the beginning of the plot of that play, as the god of food, I have not yet been ruined. I was arrogant, moody, and disrespectful. Director Ye also said that I acted like a tyrant. Zhou Xingchi shrugged, "At that moment, I felt that the demon in my heart had been released, unscrupulous..."

Hearing this, Han Qiu was a little stunned.

He remembered that Ye Chen once talked to him about Zhou Xingchi and said: "Old Han, don't look at how bright Zhou Xingchi is smiling on the screen, in fact, he laughs less than anyone else in life, and he is completely the same as in the movie." ”

"I don't know how to describe him, vicissitudes, melancholy, he seems to keep all his laughter on the screen, as if you want to see him laugh in life, you have to pay first. He acts very hard and violently. But only in this style of 'tyrant' can comedy be played to the extreme. ”

This is what Ye Chen said to Han Qiu personally.

At this moment, Han Qiu heard the word "tyrant" from Zhou Xingchi's mouth again, and he couldn't help but feel a little touched in his heart.

"Director Han, many actors who have worked with me don't like me, do you think I'm not suitable for mixing in the film and television industry?"

"What's this? The audience likes you. Han Qiu shook his head, and he could only attribute this to the fact that geniuses are very different.

"If they knew the real me, would they still like me?"

"It depends on whether you want to be a pure star or a pure actor. Han Qiu replied: "Fans chase stars because they like this star, and the audience likes you because they like the role you play in your movies." It can only be said that it is enough to be your true self. ”

"I see. Zhou Xingchi nodded: "Director Han, this movie." Let's let the audience see what the real me looks like. ”

"The audience will understand you. Han Qiu smiled, "Let's go, let's continue filming." ”

"Good. ”

Han Qiu looked at Zhou Xingchi's serious cheeks, and finally understood why he wanted to quit.

Just like in the script, Zhou Xingchi said to the heroine: "I am an actor. ”
