Chapter 210: In the Rain
Filming on Hong Kong Island wasn't always hectic.
There are a lot of restrictions on location shooting, and it's not okay if the weather is bad, traffic lighting or even bad weather.
It was a heavy rainy day, and Fan Xiaoqian's mother Nie Jin called to say that she was trapped because of the heavy rain and didn't need anyone to pick her up, and it was said that she would be back soon, and the filming work was stopped because of the heavy rain.
Originally, the weather was very good this morning, although the weather forecast said that there might be rain, the crew still shipped everything filmed.
As a result, by noon, the weather outside had a sudden change, and the entire crew had to sit and wait with wide eyes.
Fan Cheng's comprehensive entertainment channel crew is very standard and complete, so the crew may exceed 200 people before and after the crew during the entire filming period, and 200 people is the number of all participants in the entire crew, and now there are about seventy or eighty people in the crew.
It was unrealistic for so many people to wait stupidly in the downtown area, so a group of people had to disperse to nearby teahouses and cafes and other places, leaving only a few temporary field workers on Hong Kong Island to watch the machines.
Fan Cheng and director Mi Zhigao are both a little listless, and the two of them have already closed the stall if they can't do it, anyway, this rain seems to be unable to stop for a while, so it is better to go back to their respective homes.
In such an environment, Fan Xiaoqian behaved very relaxedly, and today she suddenly became interested in the curious audience around the crew.
"Third uncle, if we don't film, they won't disperse?" Fan Xiaoqian asked curiously.
"My Fan Xiaoqian is popular now, everyone wants to see you. Fan Cheng smiled.
"Really?" The girl looked happy when she heard Fan Cheng's words, and she suddenly raised her arm and waved her hand at the audience with umbrellas about a dozen paces away.
"Kya!!" There was a scream and commotion.
"Oh oh, this is a star, but it's not too sensational, what these people want to see is actually the third uncle, right?" Fan Xiaoqian suddenly asked with a wicked smile.
"They don't know me at all, do they?" asked Fan Cheng.
"No, Uncle San, you are also very famous on Hong Kong Island now, and many newspapers have reported your news. Mi Zhigao said in half-baked Mandarin.
"Really?" Fan Cheng also suddenly became playful, he stood up and waved his hand at the crowd of onlookers.
"kya !!!!!!" Sure enough, this time the shouting was much louder than Fan Xiaoqian just now.
"Oh, oh, the third uncle is so red!" Fan Xiaoqian applauded on the side.
"Are these onlookers stupid?, Fan Xiaoqian looks like this, they don't like me, but like me?!" Fan Cheng complained to Mi Zhigao on the side.
"Third uncle, you underestimate yourself too much, now you are the spokesperson of the mysterious genius, and Jay Chou can't compare to you. Mi Zhi Gao said.
Fan Cheng took a closer look at the latter and knew the reason for the incident.
The key lies in Jay Chou.
Jay Chou has been too popular in recent years.
Like his previous life, in the Chinese entertainment industry after 2000, although there are some large and small artists, but in terms of music, Jay Chou's family is the dominant one, exaggeration to say, this is the last king of the Chinese entertainment industry, he alone traverses an era, a whole entertainment industry, he provides people with songs that can bring popularity to others, after him, there are also many people who embark on the road of Chinese style, and then use half-hung Chinese style to achieve good results.
This is actually the sadness of the Chinese entertainment industry, he is indeed a genius with amazing talent, but if you pin all your talents on one person, it will lead to the malaise of the rest of the entire entertainment industry.
When he is no longer creating as he did at the peak of his creation, and his works are no longer popular in every capital, the entertainment industry has begun to become half-dead.
Fan Cheng's previous life in the Chinese entertainment industry, in terms of music alone, Jay Chou has almost no excellent works since then, and the only popular songs left are Internet songs, as well as works like "Skateboarding Shoes" and "Beier Shuang".
If you don't rely on plagiarism to write these works, then you actually still have some level, such as the Phoenix Legend, but this "level" , in a normal entertainment industry, it should only be the level of ordinary artists, but it is these ordinary level works, as well as works that have become popular by plagiarism, network promotion and other factors, but they occupy the entire music world, coupled with the almost zero genuine industry, inconsistent, and various rules that change day and night, these multi-pronged efforts have completely "wiped out" such a large Chinese music scene that actually has several times the potential of the Japanese market.
If there is no Fan Cheng, Jay Chou would be an invincible king in the Chinese entertainment industry, but there is Fan Cheng in this world, and he and his works have become the biggest opponent and comrade-in-arms that Jay Chou faces.
Speaking of opponents, it is because they are all singers and music creators, and they are competing together in the huge music market in front of them, and they are comrades-in-arms because this market is too big, not to mention Jay Chou and Fan Cheng, even if there are ten more artists of their level, they can actually tolerate it.
So Jay Chou and Fan Cheng don't have a strange confrontation psychology at all, the music scene is too big, when Fan Cheng is calling for wind and rain in the north of the mainland, he responds to every call in the south, and the two do not interfere with each other.
But while not interfering with each other, it does not mean that they have no influence in each other's "territory", Fan Cheng has enough influence in the south, and there are also many people in the north who like Jay Chou.
Moreover, it seems that there are more and more people in the south who like Fan Cheng in the near future.
More and more Fan Cheng's things are coming to the south, these things are so interesting, Jay Chou is indeed a genius, but Fan Cheng's talent is not inferior to him at all, and may even be better, especially Fan Cheng's talent is all-round, Jay Chou also wants to act and even film, but until now, he only dared to propose the idea of acting and filming to the company, but at this time Fan Cheng has already participated in several works.
And Fan Cheng knows that although Jay Chou is a genius in music, he is not very good in film and television, whether it is his participation or filming, it is not good, even if there are popular works, it does not mean that his works are really good.
If there is only Fan Cheng, although he will have a certain degree of influence and attention, he may not be as popular as he is now, the key is Jay Chou, there is a gap in comparison, he is the most popular and talented singer in the Chinese music scene now, and now he suddenly said that there is a person who is more talented than him and is good at more things, and the people immediately became curious.
It can be said that it is Jay Chou's foil that makes Fan Cheng's appearance particularly powerful.
Fan Xiaoqian is very popular, the road of idols starts with her, her popularity and strength are at the apex of idols in this world, if the two appear separately, everyone may give Fan Xiaoqian more screams, but now that Fan Cheng is here, every time they see Fan Xiaoqian, everyone can't help but think that no matter how popular she is, this Fan Cheng on the side has done it, just like Jay Chou has set off Fan Cheng, Fan Xiaoqian has also invisibly set off Fan Cheng's strength.
Fan Xiaoqian, who thought it was interesting, made an exaggerated unwilling expression on her face, she also stood up and ran to Fan Cheng, greeting the onlookers with a very exaggerated and cute posture.
The seventeen-year-old beautiful girl in a sailor suit greeted her like this, which was a kill for all ages, and the whole scene immediately became lively.
And Fan Cheng was not to be outdone, he gently pushed Fan Xiaoqian away and made a handsome gesture to the onlookers.
It's a pity that although he is quite handsome at one meter and eight, he is absolutely not better than Fan Xiaoqian in terms of beauty.
I saw that this girl ripped off two leather bands from her wrists, skillfully parted her hair, tied two ponytails on both sides of her body, and then stood in front of Fan Cheng again, put up her scissor hands, and skillfully inked!
"Oh oh oh!" The fans who were watching were about to riot, Fan Xiaoqian was still combing the holy son head specially designed by Fan Cheng for her in the movie, but in private, Fan Cheng had tried various shapes on her, among which now this style is the most invincible in Fan Cheng.
Double ponytails, bangs, sailor suits, such a beautiful girl seems to have crossed over from Fan Cheng's world of Japanese animation.
Especially with the mass destruction of ink, it is even more invincible.
After broadcasting benefits to fans, Fan Xiaoqian turned around mischievously and made a sink at Fan Cheng.
"I ...... I ......" Fan Cheng tried twice and suddenly got down on one knee with an expression of loss.
"Hahahaha!" The scene was amused by Fan Cheng's action.
And Fan Xiaoqian, under the shed on this rainy day, she is as dazzling as the sun.
"Hey, it's raining heavily, why don't you go home!?" Fan Xiaoqian shouted cutely to the fans.
In the chaotic response, you can vaguely hear some shouts of "We're looking at you!" and "If you don't go, we won't leave!"
"Third uncle, there is still a lot of miso soup left over from lunch, right? It's so cold, why don't you divide some of them?" Fan Xiaoqian suddenly turned around and said.
It's February now, and even on Hong Kong Island, it's still a little cold when it rains.
"Okay, it shouldn't be cold yet, let the chef bring it out." "The chef who followed the crew is the No. 2 chef in Wenjia's store, and the miso soup is a secret recipe product specially brought from the store, Wenjia's store has opened a lot after more than two years of development, and has opened a branch in the imperial capital of the magic capital, and the store naturally monopolizes all the food supply of the comprehensive entertainment channel and Dongbao Film and Television Production Company, even if it is filming on Hong Kong Island this time, a chef has been specially sent over.
The miso soup was quickly pushed up, Fan Xiaoqian put on a raincoat and began to serve soup to the onlookers, the heroine did this herself, and the actors who were originally watching the excitement under the shed couldn't sit still, and in the end, except for Fan Cheng and director Mi Zhigao, almost all the actors went up to deliver the soup, and the staff who did not appear on the camera were helping them prepare these things behind their backs.
Fan Xiaoqian's cuteness in front of everyone, as well as Fan Cheng's loss, and even the act of giving miso soup to the onlookers soon spread throughout China through the cameras and cameras of the reporters around her.
In fact, Fan Xiaoqian did this purely because of kindness, she didn't want to set up too much at all, but it was this innocence and nature that became the most attractive part of her.
The cuteness of the girl when she sells cuteness is invincible in the world, but she has an amazing love, and the appearance of wearing a raincoat touches people's hearts.
In addition to her appearance of selling cuteness and delivering miso soup, there is also a photo that is more popular all over the world, in which Fan Xiaoqian lifts the hood of her raincoat, and above her head, in the reinforced concrete jungle, under the sunshine after the rain, Fan Xiaoqian, who is full of golden light, is beautiful like an angel against the background of the surrounding water.
After more than a month of filming, in late February, all the location work on Hong Kong Island of "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun" was finally completed.
During this period of time on Hong Kong Island, the popularity of Fan Xiaoqian and Fan Cheng not only did not decline but also increased a little, the popularity of Europe and Fan Xiaoqian's whimsical distribution of miso soup have brought them a lot of fresh popularity, the most interesting is the miso soup in Wenjia's store, and he actually took this opportunity to become a little popular, in fact, miso is similar to Huaxia's miso in Japan, the so-called miso soup, in the hearts of the Japanese, I am afraid that there is no difference between the Chinese people and the Chinese people when they hear miso soup, and the miso is a little "stinky" Yes, if you don't get used to it, you really can't stand that taste, but this is the power of stars, Fan Xiaoqian's unintentional move made the amount of miso soup in Wenjia's store easily double, which is unexpected.
After returning home, filming took place for about two months, and the filming of "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun" was finally completed.
Fan Xiaoqian's performance is still passable on the whole, and the next is the editing and preparation period for the third work "The Tragedy", but the filming of "The Tragedy" is destined to be delayed for a while, because Fan Cheng is running out of time, and the entertainment channel is not enough for the episodes at nine o'clock on Monday.
At nine o'clock on Monday starting in 2002, there was a long-term cooperation with Shuzhong Satellite TV, and the first "101 Marriage Proposals" achieved good results, ranking first in the ratings of quasi-national TV stations in the same period, and after that, the summer file of "The Story of the Summer of 7 People of Men and Women" that began in July, and the "Autumn Story of the 7 People of Men and Women" that began in October have achieved good results, and the "idol drama" has gradually become popular among the people, and the distribution and production of this schedule have gradually stabilized.
Since 2003, in January, the comprehensive entertainment channel launched the fourth work "Tokyo Cinderella" after the establishment of the schedule.
That's right, it's Tokyo, although there is no Tokyo in this world, but Fan Cheng doesn't care, in his opinion, it's convenient, he directly set a city called "Tokyo" in the new schedule, and the people are not surprised by this kind of fiction, there are both south and north, what is strange about Fan Cheng setting up a Tokyo.
The ratings of "Tokyo Cinderella" still continue the results of "Male and Female 7 Character Language", but the new drama that starts in April will have to be intervened by Fan Cheng, because after a year of broadcasting, the opponent is also coming.
