Chapter 9: Group Performance

"Yes, but it's a little less, fifteen dollars." The man said.

"Okay, I'll act, fifteen yuan." Yuan Qing gritted his teeth, the first time he acted, he turned out to be playing a prostitute's girl......

"Come with me." The man nodded and took Yuan Qing to a makeup office, and then the costume artist chose clothes for her, and the stylist put makeup on her and made her hair.

After everything was done, Yuan Qing wore an ancient costume, a very gorgeous kind, her hair was well managed, and the makeup on her face was heavy, everything was not her style.

Beside her, there are also a few group actors who play **. After a few moments, someone came and called them to play.

"Hey, how long have you been acting?" Yuan Qing doesn't know how to act, so it's better to ask others first.

"It's not long, it's only half a year young." The woman, who also played the role of a prostitute, replied.

"How should the fireworks girl act?" Yuan Qing asked.

"Like what I saw on TV, charming, it should be fine." The woman said and threw a wink at Yuan Qing. It's as if she's a prostitute, and she's close to each other.

On the set, in front of the camera, here is the scene of a brothel, the sound of silk and bamboo, endless, inspiring, Yuan Qing plays one of the most ordinary fireworks women, in a group of warblers and swallows, smiling and almost soliciting customers.

started filming, the protagonist appeared, these supporting roles have almost no lines, to put it mildly, they are the words commonly used in the Qinglou, drink, eat, guest officer, uncle...... Little lady!

First finish filming the scene where the woman in the Qinglou is needed, and then. The actor takes the money, and after taking the money, he removes his makeup and changes his clothes.

Half an hour. I earned fifteen dollars, and anyway, I had the money for tonight's meal. Yuan Qing continued to look for work, the extras here are all temporary workers, and the wages should be settled, and after everything is done, it is time for the group actors to go to the next set.

This time. Yuan Qing came to a place dedicated to filming anti-Japanese dramas, she played a corpse and lay down for an hour. Fifteen dollars......

It's sad to think about.

rushed to the next set, where she was filming an old Shanghai drama, playing a passer-by and wearing a cheongsam. Wore a fake hood. Take a leisurely stroll through the streets.

An hour later, I got 20 dollars.

Life is like this, if you don't work hard, where do you get the money, aren't others all suffering like this?

It was getting dark, Yuan Qing had a total of sixty yuan on him, went to a place specializing in selling boxed lunches, bought two bowls of boxed lunches, and then walked back to Li Chen's crew.

It's dark. A crescent moon hung in the sky, and the people on the ground were still busy. There is no time to see, the modern era should be a fast-paced era, everyone is busy, how can there be time to look at the moon?

After walking for a long time, she came to the man's side, the man changed into a modern outfit, simple, elegant, good-looking and refined, really, even if this Hengdian is a place where handsome guys and beauties gather, it is difficult to find a character who can compare with him.

This kind of appearance is indeed invisibly giving him some advantages over others.

"You're back." Feeling the breath of the woman close to him, he looked up at her with a smile and said.

"yes, let's eat." With that, she put the lunch box in her hand on the table in front of her and sat down beside him.

Speechless, the two silently ate a boxed lunch. In ancient times, the two princesses and princesses, in modern times, are penniless, and they can only be like this.

No wonder the most beautiful love is no match for this day when there is no bread to eat.

"Lord Wang, are you familiar with your script?" Yuan Qing felt that he still had to say something to dismantle this seemingly bloody heartache.

"I'm done reading it, this story ......" he couldn't say.

"What's wrong with this story?" Yuan Qing asked.

"It seems like the person I'm playing is a little crazy." He said lightly that in the play, he also played the role of the prince and married the heroine, but the heroine didn't love him, but he loved the heroine, and the heroine loved the chivalrous man, he was very unhappy, and he did everything to make the heroine change her mind, and even tortured the male and female protagonists in a perverted way......

It's not madness, what is it?

"Forget it, it's just acting, and it shouldn't be taken seriously." Yuan Qing sighed, in order for this drama to be a big hit, the screenwriter is also hard enough.

"Yuan Qing, there is a scene in this play where the second male rapes the female No. 1." He looked at her and said this fact lightly.

"No, how can you talk about it?" Yuan Qing almost didn't drop his eyeballs.

"I don't want to act." He said it bluntly, but after the words came out, combined with their current economic situation, if this play is not acted, they will lose a lot of money.

He continued to eat, not continuing the conversation he had just said.

"Lord Wang, the contract has been signed, you can't stop acting, if you don't want to act in that scene, you can also let the director change the substitute, it's okay, when the time comes, just let the substitute play, you don't have to act." Yuan Qing hurriedly played a round.

The contracts have been signed, and if you don't act at this time, where can the crew find a male number two? Moreover, if they break the contract, they need money to settle it, and now they lack money the most.

"I just said it quickly, I'll act." Li Chen said lightly, as if admitting a mistake, like a child, which made people feel a little distressed.

"Well, when the time comes, just let the stand-in play, and you don't necessarily have to play it." Yuan Qing sighed, for the first time, he felt that he was forcing a prince who had always been pampered to act, and he was still acting in this kind of obscene play, which was extremely sinful!

Yuan Qing's heart was not easy either.

After eating, the two spent another night in the crew.

I don't know, Xiaobao, Xiaoxue, how are they? Yuan Qing looked at the lights not far away, and thought in her heart, the two of them were thirteen years old and one year old, how could she rest assured?

Slowly falling asleep, the night is already dark.

The next day, the Feihua Month by Moon crew officially started.

The filming location, after all, is based on the Song Dynasty, with the imperial court and rivers and lakes, and it must not have been filmed in the Forbidden City, not far from here.

"I'm on work, actors, let's see if there is any role to live in in this first scene, and if there is, go into the dressing room to make up." The human staff reminded that it was only five o'clock in the morning.

Yuan Qing woke up in a daze, and when she woke up, the man beside her had already left, she patted her head, really, now is not so leisurely in ancient times.

Get dressed, take care of everything, and head to the dressing room next door. At a glance, the actors who need to go to the play are sitting in front of the dressing mirror, discussing the order of the stage, and the makeup artist is helping them put on makeup and choose clothes.

Yuan Qing saw Li Chen at a glance, came to his side, and smiled apologetically.

"So much sleep? I'm fine here. Li Chen saw her just running in the mirror, and said with a doting smile. (To be continued......)
