Zhou Huai fell asleep in the dark after rushing into the house, which can be regarded as making up for all the sleep that he lacked some time ago. By the time he returned to the set again, he was already refreshed and energetic.

After filming the morning scene, he was hiding aside to eat a boxed lunch, and Zhang Ming also came over and squatted beside him.

Zhou Huai casually handed him the chili sauce on the side: "Do you want to have some?" ”

"Auntie did it?" Zhang Ming pursed his lips and asked. Qiu Hui's skills are good, and she often makes some hot sauce or pickled vegetables for Zhou Huai to bring, and Zhang Ming usually rubs a lot with her.

"Hmm."

"Hey, hey, come, come." Hearing that Qiu Hui did it, Zhang Ming took it unceremoniously. He scooped a spoonful and mixed it into the rice, and after sending it to his mouth, he squinted intoxicatedly: "Auntie's hot sauce is really nothing to say!" Gee! ”

Zhou Huai looked at him with an intoxicated look and smiled: "If you like it, I will bring you a jar tomorrow." ”

"That's embarrassing!" Zhang Ming paused: "Two cans!" The bottle should be big! ”

Zhou Huai couldn't help but smile and shook his head.

The two of them lowered their heads and ate for a while, and Zhou Huai raised his hand to look at the time: "I have to prepare, I will have my role in a while." ”

Zhang Ming raised his head buried in the lunch box at this time: "Didn't your scene be changed to three o'clock tomorrow afternoon?" ”

"Three o'clock?" Zhou Huai was stunned for a moment: "When did you change it?" ”

No one informed him at all.

"Wasn't that with Wu An? The new actor who replaced him hasn't entered the theater yet. ”

Zhou Huai was completely confused: "The new actor who replaced him? ”

At this time, Zhang Ming looked surprised: "Why don't you know yet?" Wu An was temporarily replaced. ”

"Swapped? When was this? ”

"It was yesterday," Zhang Mingchao looked around, and when he saw that no one was paying attention, he lowered his voice and said, "I was packed up and driven away at noon yesterday." If you want to say that he brought money into the group, why wouldn't he have been suddenly replaced after several scenes? ”

Zhou Huai pondered for a moment and asked, "Is it what Director Wang meant?" ”

"I don't look like it, his acting skills are not good, Director Wang didn't know it on the first day, didn't Director Wang say that he would make up the filming after he went back?" He paused: "Director Wang seemed to be quite surprised at the time, and then he answered the phone, and his face was a little wrong." ”

He leaned close to Zhou Huai's ear: "I guess he has offended people, and the people he offended are not small." ”

Zhou Huai was silent for a while and asked, "What about the investor?" ”

"Who knows, but since we can kick him out, we will definitely be able to put the investor on the side." Zhang Ming stretched out his arms and hugged Zhou Huai's shoulders: "But these things have nothing to do with us, we just need to do our part." ”

It is not a trivial matter that the second male lead, who has filmed several scenes, was temporarily replaced, but the entire crew, from the director to the actors, acted as if nothing had happened.

Although Zhou Huai was not very happy about Wu An's temporary replacement, he could never say that he was unhappy. It's not because the other party repeatedly provokes him that he is disgusted, but because Wu An's acting skills are too poor, and he is a little annoyed that he often drags on and can't call it a day.

No, it's annoying, to be exact.

After Wu An was kicked out, everyone's feelings were also mobilized, and the filming efficiency was significantly improved. With the deepening of the scene, the rivalry between Zhou Huai and the male number one Huo Yan has gradually increased.

In fact, it is not very accurate to say that it is a rival play, because the identity of the male number one in the script is the prince, and Zhou Huai is the companion who grew up with him since childhood, and it is this special identity that makes the male number one often appear when he appears, but in fact, there are not many really useful scenes.

But it is also for this reason that Zhou Huai and Huo Yan became familiar with each other, after all, he was present for almost half of Huo Yan's ten scenes. Although Huo Yan has just won the Vientiane Award for Best Actor, it can be said that he is purple, but his temper is very good, not only does he not have a fight at all, but he often plays cards with them during breaks on the set, and sometimes calls them to dinner and drink after work.

And he is not only good-tempered, but also takes great care of his juniors. For example, if we have a good relationship, we have the habit of pouring wine into each other when we go to the wine table. Zhou Huai's amount of alcohol is shallow, basically he gets drunk after two bottles of beer, Huo Yan knows that he can't drink, and someone fills him, so he often stops him.

For example, although the female No. 2 Bai Hui usually looks cold, she immediately reveals her true form when she drinks a little more, and she carries people around her neck and collar to persuade her to drink. After Huo Yan saw with his own eyes that Zhou Huai was poured by Bai Hui more than once, Bai Hui wanted to persuade Zhou Huai to drink again, so he stepped forward to block it.

Bai Hui drank high and basically didn't recognize his six relatives, and no matter how deeply he loved the male number one played by Huo Yan in the script, he shouted at him with a disgusted face: "Huo Yan, didn't you see me toasting?" Go and go! ”

Huo Yan's amount of wine is very good, knowing that she drank too much, he didn't care about him, so he directly took the wine glass and poured it down.

Bai Hui was not happy: "What are you doing, I respect Zhou Huai!" I didn't respect you! ”

Huo Yan smiled: "What's the matter, if you respect Zhou Huai, can't you respect me?" ”

Bai Hui's head was not good if she drank too much, so she followed Huo Yan's words and raised her cup directly at him: "Come on, Old Huo!" I salute you! ”

So Huo Yan easily diverted Bai Hui's firepower.

The people in the crew have good personalities, and soon everyone got together like a family.

After finishing work that day, Zhou Huai was driving his second-hand Roewe home, and received a call from Zhang Ming on the way.

"Zhou Huai, where is it?"

"On the way, is there something wrong?" Zhou Huai held his mobile phone in one hand and held the steering in the other hand for interrogation.

"Don't go home yet, there's a bureau here." Zhang Ming said and reported a list of addresses: "Hurry up." ”

Zhou Huai looked at the time: "I'm afraid it won't work today, I'm ...... here"

"There are several producers and investor bosses in this bureau today, and if you miss it, you won't have a chance." Zhang Ming lowered his voice.

Zhou Huai just entered this industry at the end of last year, and he has not signed a contract with a film and television company, and his previous films were all introduced by friends or auditioned by himself. Because there is no contracted company, the resources are pitiful. Although Zhang Ming is just a small assistant director, with this identity, his connections are not a little wider than Zhou Huai, and he is often called Zhou Huai when he has this kind of opportunity.

Normally, it is also the routine of the agent to push the stars under his hands, first bring his own people to the wine table, and then toast the investor, producer or something, and then when he has a good role, he can take the opportunity to push people to the other party: "Mr. X, how about the newcomer I recommended to you last time?" The acting skills are all proper, and the most important thing is dedication...... "If the investor thinks it is suitable, the agent can arrange for his actor to audition."

Zhang Ming knew that Zhou Huai didn't have his own agent, and there were a lot fewer such opportunities, so he spared no effort to push him whenever he had the opportunity. Even the costume drama that he was filming recently was recommended by him to Director Wang, and Zhou Huai had the opportunity to audition.

So Zhou Huai hesitated, but nodded: "Okay, you go first, I'll drive over there." ”

The location of the hall is a little off, and at this time it is the peak period of commuting, Zhou Huai hurried to the place or a little late, and everyone was already singing high in the private room.

After Zhou Huai and Director Wang said hello to a few people they knew well, they sat in the corner of the private room, unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and poured it down. The scene in the previous afternoon was very tight, and he didn't even have time to drink saliva.

Zhang Ming squeezed to his side and stabbed him: "Why did you come here?" ”

"There is a traffic jam on the road."

Zhang Mingchao looked around: "Let Director Wang introduce a few people to you for a while, I heard that there is a big drama recently, if you get it right, you may be able to have a chance to audition." ”

Zhou Huai's temperament is actually not very keen on this aspect of communication, but Zhang Ming is kind enough to give him a bridge, and he is always not good at breaking the other party's face. Moreover, since you have stepped into this circle, some necessary communication is inevitable.

As soon as Zhang Ming's words fell, he saw Director Wang beckoning to him, his eyes lit up, and he followed Director Wang with a glass of wine with a smile on his face and walked towards a man in a neat suit.

After Zhang Ming followed Director Wang for a long time, he pushed Zhou Huai out in a timely manner. Zhou Huai's acting skills are good, and he is humble and down-to-earth, Director Wang has a good impression of him. Since Zhang Ming proposed it, he also introduced Zhou Huai to several producers present.

Zhou Huai's amount of alcohol is shallow, and he can't help but toast at this time, so he has to try his best to control it, but when he comes down this circle, he is also slightly drunk.

Zhou Huai was easy to get sleepy after drinking, so he sat in the corner and wanted to take a break. He was leaning back on the sofa with his head tilted when a man in a suit and leather shoes suddenly walked up to him.

"Mr. Yang." Zhou Huai had already risen in wine at this time, but he still quickly sat up straight. He had just toasted his wine behind Director Wang, and knew that he was Yang Zhen, the vice president of Huamei. Huamei has recently pressed a few popular idol scripts in her hands, but because it doesn't match Director Wang's style, she doesn't seem to have any intention of cooperating.

"Zhou Huai, right?" Yang Zhen slowly filled the wine glasses in front of himself and Zhou Huai: "I have watched your films before, and my acting skills are good." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Yang." Zhou Huai knew that he was almost drunk at this time, so even if Yang Zhen filled the wine, he still didn't move.

Unexpectedly, Yang Zhen pushed the wine glass in his direction, and the intention of asking him to drink it was already obvious. At this time, Zhou Huai couldn't pretend to be stupid, so he had to pick up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, I respect you." ”

If you only have one drink, you won't get too drunk.

Yang Zhen didn't let him go, and watched him drink the wine in the wine glass, and then reached out to fill his wine glass.

Zhou Huai smiled: "Mr. Yang, I really can't drink anymore, I'm looking at you now." ”

"So shallow?"

"yes."

Unexpectedly, Yang Zhen suddenly leaned over to him, and said in a low voice in his ear: "I think it's a little stuffy here, otherwise let's go out and blow the wind?" ”
