Chapter 32
Every director hopes that the actors under him are talented, and they also hope that their movies can be interpreted by spiritual actors, but Cai Yuanjiang is painful and happy at this time.
The actor who was very optimistic about it before can actually compete with Xiao Daozhi in terms of acting skills, and Xiao Daozhi, who was already full of acting skills, also looked mellow and comfortable in the whole performance under the drive of Qi Yuzhu.
The other actors were driven by the two leading actors, and their appearance was also very good, which made Cai Yuanjiang, who was not picky, even more satisfied with the entire crew, but the tacit understanding between the two leading actors during filming always continued outside the play, which made Cai Yuanjiang a little worried.
At this time, the supporting role was being filmed, and the assistant director was watching, Cai Yuanjiang looked at Qi Yuzhu and Xiao Daozhi, who were sitting far away, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Cai Yuanjiang sighed, and the assistant director subconsciously shouted "cut!" Cai Yuanjiang glanced at the two supporting characters who were still a little confused in the audience, and suddenly let go of the doubts in his heart-
He has always hated artists who use movies to hype, although the pair of leading actors in front of him are a bit strange in personality, but their acting skills are first-class, and such an indifferent attitude just shows that both of them are willing to settle down to study movies, rather than the kind of people who only use movies as a tool to become famous.
Cai Yuanjiang, who was extremely satisfied with Qi Yuzhu, did not hesitate to praise in an interview with the media: "This is the most spiritual newcomer I have ever seen, and I am also the only actress I have found who can be so compatible with Xiao Daozhi in the movie." ”
Xiao Daozhi has always been known as a "female artist killer", and this title is not groundless. He has a bad temper and is unexpectedly persistent in movies, and he has always been ruthless to some female partners whose acting skills do not meet his requirements, and he is also ruthless in front of the media.
Qi Yuzhu suspects that when Xiao Daozhi changed from an actor to a director, there may be a reason why he can no longer find an actress who is willing to partner with him.
So when Cai Yuanjiang's words came out, Yu Ji and the paparazzi didn't believe it, but this one prevented them from following this news to find gossip, so the microphone was handed to Xiao Daozhi's mouth.
"May I ask Emperor Xiao, what do you think of Director Cai's comment that you and newcomer Qi Yuzhu are very compatible?"
"Emperor Xiao, did you really do a fake scene with Qi Yuzhu during the filming of the movie?"
"Excuse me, is Qi Yuzhu the superior of your unspoken rules?"
Xiao Daozhi's originally frowning brows relaxed, he raised his eyes to look at the reporter who said a sharp question, and his eyes were cold: "After so many years of debut, no one has really told me the words 'unspoken rules', do you think my Xiao Daozhi's name is so unbearable?" ”
The reporter was looked at by his vision for a while, indeed, Xiao Daozhi's debut has been smooth sailing since the beginning, not only because of his strength, but also because of his deep connections, in the entire entertainment industry, who else can "unspoken rules" Xiao Daozhi?
The reporter wanted to slap himself in the mouth, and he could almost predict that when he returned to the newspaper, he would be scolded by the editor-in-chief who knew that he had offended Xiao Daozhi.
Xiao Daozhi took his eyes away from the reporter who was eager to shrink into the ground, glanced lightly at the group of reporters blocking the door of the crew, and suddenly smiled playfully: "You came from all over the country just to listen to my evaluation, right?" Okay, then I'll just say it-don't compare that Leng Ying with Qi Yuzhu in the future, is she worthy? ”
"Is she worthy?" Just three words are like a cruel slap in the face, so cold and powerless to refute.
Her life in the crew of "Undercurrent" was not as good as she imagined, she desperately squeezed out Gu Fei and became the female number one of the only big production zuò in this China Television in 2015, but after entering the crew, she realized how complicated the relationship in this big production zuò is.
The drama girl may be the niece of an assistant director, and a distant relative of the producer who is playing tricks. A large-scale zuò with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars is enough to make these people sharpen their heads and drill into it, but these people are not something she can offend.
Leng Ying thought of her previous life when she was doing tricks in the crew, she was always bullied and ignored by the protagonist's supporting roles, where is it like now, she still has to look at the face of these people as a protagonist? !
It boils down to one word – a name!
She is just a newcomer, no exposure, no fame, and only the skeptical eyes of everyone. Even director Fei Mu, who has always supported her before, is now faintly dissatisfied.
Leng Ying knows that what she should do now is to make this movie well and interpret this role perfectly, only in this way can she wash away the doubts and stains on her body, but she also has the bitterness in her heart!
Another leading actor Jiang Wen is like a wooden man every day, except for acting, he doesn't communicate with her at all, and he has been acting in the process of acting, even though she has a lot of acting experience in her previous life, but it is the first time to be the protagonist in this kind of large-scale zuò, and it is inevitable that she will be a little in a hurry.
At this time, Leng Ying felt the gap. The feeling of being a starring actor is not the same as being a showman.
To do a trick, you don't need eyes, you don't even need to move, you just need your save zài, but being a starring actor is different, acting! Acting! Acting! This is especially true in movies, where the flutter of your eyelashes has to be scripted, and not everyone is suitable for the big screen.
Leng Ying used to think that she was born in the entertainment industry, but when she joined the crew of "Undercurrent", her confident idea was shaken - the director's dissatisfaction, her partner's lack of cooperation, and the cold eyes of the supporting roles all made her full of doubts about herself.
It shouldn't be like this - in Leng Ying's heart, there is a voice that has been telling her like this, but the reality has made her more and more frustrated, she has tried everything to join this big system, but what she got is this result.
Originally, the filming plan of "Undercurrent" would be postponed due to the sudden withdrawal of the actress Gu Fei, and Leng Ying also planned to take over the dark horse-like movie "Twins" first, but she didn't expect to suddenly kill a Qi Yuzhu, who was also a newcomer and was unexpectedly excellent, and more importantly, she had never heard of this name in her previous life!
Leng Ying, who lost "Twins", which she thought was in the bag, and was disrupted by her plans, could only use some means to win the script of "Undercurrent", and in her previous life, these two scripts were different in terms of attention and schedule, but now they have become such an opposing situation, and Leng Ying doesn't know how to face it.
While Leng Ying was worrying about the movie, the fashion industry was already brewing an impending storm!
Heaton!
Heaton, who hasn't released a new work for two years, suddenly announced the release of a new work, and it is a pure feminine fragrance, the most incredible thing is-
At the same time as the global premiere of this fragrance named "Temptation", it actually regarded Asia as the core publicity area of the debut.
This has puzzled countless bigwigs in the fashion industry, although they all know that the consumption power in Asia is very large, but no matter which perfume, at the beginning of the promotion, it is placed in Europe and the United States.
Many people who know a little bit of the inside story know that Heaton has a major shareholder who is from country Z, and Heaton's executive officer in Asia is also from country Z, so he said that the core of this promotion and sales is in the Asia-Pacific region.
But only Xiang Cheng knows why he has to do the core promotion of this global sale in Asia, just because of the pile of photos in front of him.
The woman in the photo has a pair of misty and watery eyes, at this time, the hazy peach blossom eyes are looking at him lazily, Xiang Cheng subconsciously covered his heart, he was a little skeptical that he had a heart problem, otherwise why did he look at a photo, his heart was a little uncontrollable?
She was wearing a long silver dress, the slim cut made her delicate figure at a glance, she stood with her back to the light, the slightly gray tone made her look like a dark goddess, she stood with a cup, as if attracted by the noise, she frowned slightly, and looked at it with a slightly lazy look - for a moment, freeze!
Xiang Cheng sighed, this woman is really a natural model, he has never seen anyone with a better sense of the camera than her, it seems that she was born to stand in the spotlight and accept everyone's admiration.
He flipped the photo back and couldn't help but let out another sigh of admiration.
In a completely different style from the previous one, there is only one side of the photo, the woman is dressed in a neat formal suit, the corners of her lips are cold, but her eyes are seductively cold, and an unbuttoned shirt button reveals her delicate collarbone.
"Tsk, office temptation? I don't know yet, Brother Qi is so good at playing? Deliberately picked this dress......" Xiang Cheng muttered to himself, and suddenly, he paused, "Hmm...... Seems to know something amazing? ”
………………………………………………
"It's crazy!"
The person in charge of every Heaton branch muttered this sentence, and looking at the swarm of customers, everyone's heart welled up not with joy, but with fear.
"Didn't your ad say that you would get a poster for every bottle of 'temptation' you buy? You're telling me now that the limited edition is gone, and the posters are gone? I've been standing in line for an hour, and you're telling me this? ”
"Yes, we've been queuing for so long, and it's a shame that you're still the largest branch in H City, and the stock is so small, I remember that the Heaton series was only released today, right?"
"I don't want to hear any explanation now, just tell me about it, when will the goods arrive, my wife is still waiting for me to come home for dinner!"
"That's right! Accurate! We can make a deposit! ”
"And posters! A must have, too! Is it easy for a big man to grab this women's perfume? ”
The person in charge really wanted to cry without tears, as early as when the inventory bottomed out quickly, he had already contacted the branch, but he didn't expect to be busy, and when he got through, he knew that the inventory in Asia was gone!
10 million copies! It's 10 million, not 1,000!
A limited edition perfume priced at $688! It's not $88, it's not 688 soft girl coins!
What about the Asia-Pacific region being the core region for sales? Two-thirds of the inventory is in country Z? What about paying attention to the market of our country Z? What about the liar?!
The person in charge only felt a group of grass and mud horses running wildly in his mind, looking at the customers in front of him who had not calmed down, he quietly whispered to the person in front of the counter for a while, and ran out of the crowd with the poster he had hidden a long time ago.
Finally, he smirked at the people gathered around the counter - stupid! What's the use of finding a BA? Or is he self-aware! But should I take a day off tomorrow? This momentum looks a little scary!
It's not just the person in charge of this Heaton store who feels terrible, it's a scene that plays out in every Heaton store in Asia, and no one expected the fragrance to be a hit, and no one expected it to be out of stock on the first day in the Asia Pacific region.
Even Xiang Cheng was overwhelmed by the constantly ringing phone at this time, and it was only the first day that most of the branches of State Z were out of stock!
"You're also a major shareholder of Heaton, shouldn't you help figure out a way in this situation?" Xiang Cheng glanced at Qi Yulin, who had been shaking the goblet on the side, and couldn't help gritting his teeth.
"Oh? Can I help? Qi Yulin dragged out his tone, "Do you think I can go and help produce the perfume, or can I go and help drive the transportation?" ”
Xiang Cheng listened to Qi Yulin's words, and also scratched his head in distress: "I expected that with Qi Yuzhu as the spokesperson, 'temptation' would definitely sell well, but I didn't expect it to be out of stock in just one day!" ”
"You're misestimating the purchasing power of consumers in country Z, and you're underestimating the impact of the photos you send out. Today, your TV commercial has not been broadcast in country Z at the same time, and once it is broadcast, you should think carefully about whether your branch will be smashed. ”
Hearing Qi Yulin mention this, Xiang Cheng suddenly had an even more headache, "I just called Allen, and he said that the European and American markets are also in short supply, so let me stop bothering him for the time being." ”
Qi Yulin glanced at the propaganda poster on Xiang Cheng's table again, and coldly spit out two words: "Hehe......"
In the face of the strong footage of Heaton's landing in country Z, the media had to focus on the newcomer again while being amazed.
Qi Yuzhu!
Seeing her twice in the headlines within a month, the reporter had to sigh that the momentum of this newcomer's rise was really unabated compared to Xiao Daozhi's year.
And the strength of this newcomer is really able to kill all the artists of the new generation in seconds.
The first work of his debut was the ratings champion in the TV series, and the roles in the play are almost comparable to the heroine, and her acting skills in it are absolutely outstanding, killing the other two leading actors.
Now on major forums, the center of the discussion of "Chivalrous Powder" is Ning Gu, not the two leading actors with a low sense of storage......
A character who is both good and evil, a cute and cool image - Qi Yuzhu's performance in chivalry has attracted her fans of different ages, from students to old men and old ladies, who stay in front of the TV every night and wait for the episodes to be updated.
All the TV series in the same period were affected by the strong ratings of this TV series, before that, they only thought that this kind of wave would only be at the level of a gale, but since the first episode was broadcast, this level has directly crossed the storm level and become a tornado!
"Chivalrous" female No. 2, "Superstar Dream" championship favorite, "Twins" female No. 1, Cai Yuanjiang and Xiao Daozhi's praisers, Heaton spokesperson......
This layer after layer of halo is put on the head of a newcomer, so that many media are a little unresponsive - this newcomer ...... It's a fire!
Countless people have looked at this newcomer who suddenly became popular, this is not ten years ago, ten years ago, there were only a few big names in the entertainment industry, and it was not difficult to become popular.
But now it's different, there are hundreds of newcomers pouring into the entertainment industry every day, and each of these newcomers with star dreams wants to become famous, but without exception they fail.
Only a very small number of lucky people can get a once-in-a-million chance to get an invitation to become famous, and at this moment, Qi Yuzhu has already received a direct C-level invitation from the time he won a role in the crew of "Chivalry".
Qi Yuzhu, who was still filming "Twins" in the mountainous area, didn't know that she had just finished the last scene in this mountain village, and after filming this scene, the entire crew could return to S City to continue the follow-up shooting.
"Side Quest: Gain the approval of actor Xiao Daozhi - completed. Please claim your mission rewards in time. ”
Qi Yuzhu unexpectedly glanced at Xiao Daozhi in front of her, she thought that she would have to wait until the movie was finished to complete the task.
"You really impress me, but after returning to S City, Gu Fei will also join the crew, I don't want you to be overwhelmed by a supporting role as the leading actor." Xiao Daozhi still had that unkind expression, but Qi Yuzhu could hear his voice.
"Thank you for your concern, but I don't think I'll be pressed by Gu Fei, the scenes filmed these days are not enough for you to understand my strength?" If it weren't for the system prompt, Qi Yuzhu really thought that Xiao Daozhi hadn't recognized her yet.
Xiao Daozhi was choked by Qi Yuzhu's words, and immediately remembered that he would occasionally be suppressed in a state, Qi Yuzhu's state would never be robbed of momentum by Gu Fei.
"Okay, everyone will pack up their viewing things when they return to their residences, we will leave for S City tomorrow, and the rest of the scenes will be filmed in S City!"
Director Cai waved his hand, and everyone couldn't help cheering, these days in the mountains are simply a kind of torment for these people who are used to the bright lights.
Seeing that they are about to return to S City, many people are ready to go to the old village chief here for a meal.
"Old Village Chief" is actually a nickname, because there are not many villagers in this remote mountain village, and there are only a dozen people in the old village chief, the crew came here, and the old village chief also took care of the actors and staff in the crew, and many people liked to go to him to eat.
Knowing that they were leaving, everyone was also a little reluctant to the old village chief, and they all said that they wanted to form a group to eat.
"Rubbing rice" is just a joke, everyone is not short of that meal money, and the old village chief cooks with wild game in the mountains, which is authentic and delicious, and everyone will give a few hundred yuan for each meal.
Knowing that the crew was leaving, the old village chief also took out some inventory at home and made a delicious meal for everyone, Qi Yuzhu only ate a little and then left the table and walked outside the house under the pretext.
"How did you get out?" Xiao Daozhi's deep voice came from behind.
Qi Yuzhu didn't look back, "I don't want to drink." ”
Xiao Daozhi thought for a while, and then said, "That's right, you're still a singer." ”
Qi Yuzhu didn't figure out what Xiao Daozhi's intentions were, so he didn't speak. Xiao Daozhi didn't wait for Qi Yuzhu's words for a long time, so he just turned around and took two steps back, and suddenly stopped: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you before." ”
"What did you say?" Qi Yuzhu was puzzled.
But Xiao Daozhi's voice was far away: "...... It's nothing. ”
At this time, Qi Yuzhu turned around, but what he saw was not Xiao Daozhi, but the old village chief, with some apprehension and hesitation on his wrinkled face.
Qi Yuzhu was a little puzzled, she had never paid much attention to appetite, so she didn't often come to the old village chief's house to eat, so now she looked at the old village chief with a look of something to say to her.
At this time, the system suddenly spoke: "I found that the serial task - the pre-task: the request of the village chief - was not accepted." Reward: New Scenario. Acceptance of the assignment - Yes. Not. ”
Qi Yuzhu's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at the old village chief: "Village chief, do you have anything to say?" ”
Seeing Qi Yuzhu talking, the old village chief hesitated for a while and stepped forward and said, "Miss Qi, I want to ask you for something." ”
"Please say, as long as I can do it, I will help you."
The old village chief paused, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and unfolded it, revealing a piece of topaz inside.
"Miss Qi, I know that my request is a bit reckless, but when it comes to my granddaughter, I still have the cheekiness to say it."
"This piece of jade is the ancestral treasure of our Qian family, I hope you can help me sell this piece of jade." As he spoke, the old village chief reluctantly touched the jade in his palm.
Qi Yuzhu was a little surprised, "Village Chief, if you are short of money, I can lend you some, so you don't have to sell such a precious thing." ”
The old village chief handed over the jade: "I don't owe anyone else for my old money, and I don't want to owe a debt when I die, this piece of jade was originally meant to be passed on to the next generation, and now that my granddaughter is gone, this jade is useless." To tell you the truth, I wanted to sell this piece of jade just to find my granddaughter. ”
Qi Yuzhu looked at Baoyu handed to him, and did not take it, if the old village chief wanted to help him find his granddaughter, this task was too difficult, "If you feel that it is inconvenient to travel, you can go out with our convoy." It's better to handle such a precious thing yourself. ”
The old village chief shook his head, and there was a trace of loneliness in his eyes: "I'm old, I haven't left the village in my life, and I don't want to leave the village." Miss Qi, I hope you can do me a favor, I believe you will not be rare this piece of jade, you just need to help me sell this piece of jade, and then use the money to help me promote this piece of jade, if my daughter-in-law sees it, she must know what I mean. ”
"Prerequisite Mission: The Old Village Chief's Request: Sell Baoyu. - Opened, do you want to accept the previous mission, accepting this mission will be regarded as accepting the serial mission - the first exploration of the new world. ”
New world?!
Qi Yuzhu's eyes lit up, and he took the piece of treasure jade in front of him, and then he heard the old village chief's voice with surprise and loneliness: "Miss Qi, thank you!" If my daughter-in-law and granddaughter can see it, I can be regarded as having an explanation for Lao Leng......."
