11. Chapter 11
Chen Nan came over early the next morning, accompanied by assistant Ye Huan. Ye Huan also saw the Xia family for the third time, but every time he saw that the Xia family could sit on a manor mansion with a large garden and an outdoor swimming pool in the capital where every inch of land was valuable, he couldn't help but be shocked.
There are a lot of rich people in the capital, but it is not ordinarily rich to have such a mansion in this kind of location, Ye Huan is a little confused, why Xia Rui is obviously the daughter of a rich family, why is she willing to come to the entertainment industry? But I don't think it's too unusual when I think about it, this kind of rich and idle lady has lived anywhere, in fact, it doesn't need to be too unusual.
Xia Rui packed up a change of clothes and carried a small suitcase downstairs, her father is a busy man, and even her mother's attribute is a strong woman who has her own company in her hands, so it is destined to be like an ordinary family, eat breakfast together in the morning, and say good night in the evening.
As for her brother, the age difference between them is a bit big, not long after she was born, her brother went abroad as a small international student, and when she could see each other every year, there was only winter and summer vacations, and by the time she was in high school, her brother had already made a name for himself on Wall Street and became the CEO of Bruville Investment Bank in the United States.
She is now almost in college, and her brother is finally willing to come back from the United States, and is in charge of all the company's affairs in Asia as the CEO of the Bruville investment banking division in China.
Grandpa also snorted when he saw Xia Rui carrying a small suitcase out, and he was still a little unhappy in his heart, he knew that he shouldn't have agreed to make any films, no matter if he was a TV series or a movie, he couldn't stay at home in peace.
I am so unhappy in my heart, but the words that come out of my mouth are to pay attention to rest and not be bullied, the kind of scene that wants to be taken advantage of by men can't be filmed or anything.
When he said these words, his eyes glanced at Chen Nan's side, there was a bit of warning in his eyes, Chen Nan didn't dare to make a sound when he faced this old man, after knowing Xia Rui's background, he also specially checked the background of the Xia family, although the old man is a cultural person, good at calligraphy and painting, he is a master-level figure in China, he was a professor in Beijing University in his early years, and taught many protégés, many of these protégés are still extremely weighty.
Chen Nan is not afraid of any nonsense, he is afraid of these old men and old ladies, and when he is generally facing them, his sharp teeth will not be able to be used at all.
Of course, Xia Rui should also be good, and after cleaning up, she also lied to someone, saying that when this drama is finished, she will not shoot for the time being, and then she will have time to accompany the old man to watch the calligraphy and painting exhibition and listen to the concert, and coaxed the old man to happily sweep away the unhappiness just now, and sent him out with a cane, saying that he should hurry up and finish filming so that he can come back to accompany him, the old man.
The photography base on Minguo Street is closer than the previous costume film and television base, and it is about an hour and a half drive without traffic jams.
There are mainly four streets in the Republic of China Street, typical streets and residences of the Republic of China, and there are a lot of crews stationed here in normal times, and when she just got off the bus, Xia Rui saw a lot of people wearing long and short cheongsams or dresses.
Chen Nan asked Ye Huan to wait at the end of the nanny car, and he led Xia Rui to the studio, which was in a big mansion on the street, and many scenes took place in this big mansion, or in the exterior or in several other studios.
Xia Rui was popularized by Chen Nan before he came, and now this director Yu, Chen Nan is very rare to say some good things, saying that although Director Yu is still young in the circle of directors, he is not shallow in terms of qualifications, in a word, he is talented, commercial films are blockbusters, literary films win awards, this has his share, the only hobby is to think about shooting a small screen after getting tired of shooting the big screen, and he is not very strict with the pickiness of actors, but he is very good at tuning and teaching people, and he also likes to use new faces.
All in all, Xia Rui relied on the company's investment in directing this TV series this time, and by the way, there was also Chen Nan's face card, after all, Chen Nan still has a few first-line stars who have won the actor and queen awards, and his private relationship with Director Yu is not bad, he recommended people to Director Yu, and he didn't want a big role, so it was easy to pass.
The selection of key roles, Director Yu still has his own insistence, so naturally he will not agree, for example, when Chi Yue got the role of the male lead, he still got it through the audition, which is also the relationship that makes Chen Nan determined to hone and hone people and strive to get on the big screen as soon as possible.
Xia Rui originally thought that being a director should be like Director Wang, at least he should be meticulous, but when he saw the person sitting under the sun umbrella behind the monitor, he still seemed very surprised, the person was holding a lollipop in his mouth, wearing a simple and wide white T-shirt and pants with a pair of sandals with his feet, and his image was very casual, and his tender baby face didn't look like a very talented director at all, but as if he was only in his early twenties and had just graduated from college.
WTF!
Is this sure to be a great director and not a student at some university who just woke up and crawled out of his dorm?
Xia Rui couldn't help but look at Chen Nan again after looking at people several times, there was some disbelief in her eyes, it couldn't be her, right?
Chen Nan couldn't help frowning when he saw Director Yu's sloppy image, if he wanted to see people glamorously appearing in front of people, he probably only walked the red carpet, usually on the set, he will always be able to drive the stylist crazy.
"Yu Dao." Chen Nan screamed, with a bit of patience in his voice.
"Yo, you're coming?" Yu Rui greeted Chen Nan, holding a big pu fan in his hand, "Look at the heat this day, you don't dislike the heat when you dress like this?" ”
Yu Rui glanced at Chen Nan's decent business elite dress, and very kindly handed over the big pu fan in his hand, "Do you want to fan you?" ”
Chen Nan glanced at the big pu fan in his hand, and he had the impression that this thing was a special item belonging to his grandfather's generation, and he didn't know which corner it came from, so he didn't take it.
"My new artist." Chen Nan said to Yu Rui.
Yu Rui glanced at Xia Rui a few times and nodded, "Yes, have you ever had experience in filmmaking?" ”
"I played a small role in "The Legend of King Wei" before." Xia Rui said, "There are not many scenes, this is the second time." ”
"How's that going?" Yu Rui felt interesting as soon as he heard the title of "The Legend of King Wei", and now "The Legend of King Wei" is already in the promotion period, "Wait, what's your name?" ”
Yu Rui felt as if he had touched something.
"Xia Rui."
"It's you!" Yu Rui slapped his thigh violently, "Hey, hey, I'll just say what are you doing with public relations, you don't put a straight face in the promotional video, you must be hanging your appetite." I originally thought that you Wen Yue and Xinghui would fight, but I waited there for a long time! ”
The trends on Weibo Yu Rui also brushed, Yu Rui likes those gossip entertainment when he is idle and has nothing to do, even the tree holes such as family disputes are his love, and there are small vests registered by him on several major websites, for him, life is originally a novel, just those gossip tree holes are enough for him to make up several scripts, and when filming TV series, the wine is older and more fragrant, and the dog blood is also scolded by everyone and everyone watches, he is full of enthusiasm and waiting for a big tear, It turned out to be such a small movement, which was really disappointing to him.
Chen Nan: "......", if it weren't for this, it would be a big loss for the gossip party to be a director instead of being a water army, a keyboard warrior, and a director.
Xia Rui: "......" always felt that the painting style was a little wrong, so what's going on?
"But I think the image is quite okay," Yu Rui glanced at Xia Rui a few more times and then nodded, "It's done, you just stay in the crew, I'll let someone give you the room card, and your role will start filming after the boss comes!" It's really fateful to say it, and the boss has just finished filming the same drama. ”
"Who?" Chen Nan couldn't help but be a little curious when he heard Yu Rui say this, and went through the starring role of "The Legend of King Wei" in his heart.
"Xie Yu!" The big fan in Yu Rui's hand was fanning loudly, and there was still a bit of smugness in his tone.
Chen Nan originally thought it was a few young actors, but Xie Yu didn't dare to think about it, the coffee position was too big, "Didn't he take over the big production of European directors?" Why are you planning to develop to the small screen this year? It shouldn't be......"
In the circle, the coffee position of the movie is generally bigger than the coffee position of the TV, and those who can generally be mixed on the big screen are basically mainly active on the top, and it is nothing to participate in the TV series occasionally, and it is not good to stay on the small screen all the time. Xie Yu is not short of those resources, how can he ......
"It's just a cameo in friendship, the boss's role is not much, and there are few parts. When I had dinner with him a few months ago, I said that I wanted to make a Republic of China drama, and I asked him to play a cameo role, and he agreed. Yu Rui said, "It's rare to find a person like Xie Yu in the circle, his small screen is just for fun, and he will still return to the big screen, besides, as far as the weight of his coffee position, if it's not a friendship cameo or a starring role, I don't have so much money!" His focus in the future should be more abroad, after all, it is difficult to find one in China for the Oscars, and I am waiting to see if he will come back with a Best Actor. ”
At that time, he was also an assistant director for several years, and finally got the funds to become the first play of his director, at that time, he didn't expect that Xie Yu would be able to go so far in so many years, and he just mentioned it in passing, but he didn't expect Xie Yu to really care, and he called to ask about the script later, which made Yu Rui cheeky and sent the script over to invite someone to make a cameo, which was a gimmick at that time.
Xie Yu.
Xia Rui was also a little surprised when she heard this name, but instead showed a smile, that was really a coincidence, I originally thought that we would basically not meet, since he also acted in this film, then say thank you in person when I see someone when I look back.
