After slapping his face vigorously with both hands, Sun Lei slowly raised his head in front of the mirror, looking at the haggard face in the mirror with sunken cheeks and looking like he didn't even have two taels of flesh, he couldn't help but sigh heavily.

Alas-

"Brother Lei, the scene next to you will start immediately, you are a good place." Outside the bathroom, his friend Caidong's urging voice was heard.

"Got it, I'll be right away." Sun Lei responded, and then wiped his still wet face with his sleeve.

walked out of the bathroom and came outside, when the sun shone on his body, Sun Lei, who was already wearing a prop costume, immediately entered the feeling of taking a sauna again.

The crew he ran this morning was filming Journey to the West, just in time for the scene when Sun Wukong made trouble in the Heavenly Palace, and he played a heavenly soldier armor who was beaten away by Sun Wukong's stick.

didn't even have a straight face, ran in a thick prop suit under the scorching sun for more than an hour, and finally for this stick, Sun Lei was really a little depressed.

It doesn't matter if you're tired, bitter, or have no lines, but you have to give me a straight face! Anyway, I'm also a serious 800 film academy undergraduate, even if I have no background and no connections, I'm not a woman, so there is no possibility of being dived, but I'm really an actor, can you respect me a little!

"Forget it, let's catch up with the next one! Otherwise, next month's rent will be gone. Sun Lei took off the prop costume and returned it, while thinking about hurrying to the next crew to play tricks.

Running three crews a day, a crew can earn 100 yuan, 300 yuan a day, and 9,000 yuan a month, which sounds like a lot, but not every day there is a trick. After all, he wants more than other tricks, so those who recruit extras don't like to look for him like this, so unless he meets someone who appreciates him, or with his appearance, even if he plays a corpse, he doesn't want him.

Are film school undergraduates handsome? Is there a backstage? Do you have money at home?

In this era when graduate students can't find jobs and doctoral students gnaw at the old, it's really not enough for an undergraduate student with no appearance and no background in a film school.

"I'm sure I'll be the main character! If I can't get a role with lines after another month of running, I'll go to shoot an online drama! Seeing that the crew filming Journey to the West not far away had prepared props to start filming the next scene, Sun Lei cheered himself up in his heart, and his godless gaze gradually became firm.

Being an actor has been a dream of him since he was a child, and being a leading role is his lifelong pursuit.

If he doesn't play the protagonist for a day, he won't give up for a day.

He didn't believe that with his superb acting skills and professional knowledge, he couldn't even be the protagonist of a small-budget movie.

。。。。。。

"All departments are ready to ~, the twenty-third episode of the fifth episode of the monkey king Bao Tang Seng, the first article, Action!"

The assistant director, dressed in a dark green pony coat and wearing big sunglasses, shouted loudly into the megaphone in front of his mouth.

"Deputy Director Jia, wait a minute, I'm afraid I won't be able to shoot today! Our Wu Geshen has heat stroke again, if this affects his throat, next week's concert will be in vain! A capable woman with professional steps hurriedly walked up to Assistant Director Jia and said with a worried face.

"Isn't it! My assistant Bi Da! It's been more than three hours of rest, and you're still resting? Hearing that the company invited a popular little fresh meat from a certain draft to be the protagonist this time, and asked for a monk on leave, Deputy Director Jia felt that he was about to suffer from heat stroke.

However, considering the huge traffic of this little fresh meat and the guarantee of ratings, he held back his anger and smiled: "Why don't you talk to Mr. Wu, if you don't have lines today, just lie under the props for ten minutes, and it won't affect next week's concert." ”

The female assistant raised her eyebrows and said, "If you really can't wait, then use a stand-in, anyway, it's just a ten-minute play." ”

"Me!"

"Good...... Bar"

"I'll ask the director's opinion."

I didn't dare to say it later, Assistant Director Jia, who has been in the entertainment industry for decades, had to report to the director with a stupid face.

Responsible for the filming of this new Journey to the West, is a rookie director who has just made a youth campus-themed movie with a box office of more than one billion, and was originally a popular singer, but because of his age and marriage and children, he lost his fan popularity, and the few albums that came out later did not adapt to the trend of the times, so he retired bravely and became a director.

Originally, no one thought that the movies he made could be popular, after all, there is a miasma in the film industry now, and anyone can be a director, but it is still the old directors of those generations who can really make good films.

It's just that after the movie shot by the singer and part-time director was released, it made the faces of the old directors red.

The box office was 1.2 billion, and the venue was full, becoming a dark horse of the year. Moreover, the singer also won the Best New Director Award the following year.

You say it's infuriating! The old directors don't know what's going on, after all, a newcomer who was born as a singer and turned into a director halfway through, and the box office exceeded one billion when he made his first movie, no one dares not to ask people with an old face.

However, since the second year, many long-established old directors have begun to prepare to shoot movies with campus youth-themed themes, after all, who still has a grudge against money!

The movie with the theme of Journey to the West has been almost remade so far, but except for the version made by director Yang Jie, there is really nothing for the audience to remember. However, being able to shoot an epic TV series like Journey to the West, even if it is not a hit, can also make the qualifications of actors and directors rise.

Even if the rookie director made a dark horse movie, the filming funds of this new Journey to the West don't know how many connections were used and how many favors were owed to successfully start, so when he heard the assistant director's report, the rookie director could only nod and agree to use a stand-in, after all, a minute of delay is a loss of tens of thousands of yuan, so I really can't wait for Xiao Xianrou to go into battle in person.

Two-thirds of the filming funds were given to the little fresh meat, and the remaining one-third was not saved, and it is estimated that this Journey to the West can only be filmed.

"This scene is to shoot the Monkey King who was pressed under the Wuzhi Mountain through Guanyin's guidance, willing to take refuge in Buddhism, and then Tang Seng passed through the Five Elements Mountain to uncover the scene of pressing the post. Now that Xiao Xianrou is suffering from heat stroke, you will let the stand-in plaster more on your face for a while, saving goofs, and it will have a bad impact when the time comes! The rookie director, who was eager to rely on this drama to make a name, thought for a while and then instructed the assistant director.

The assistant director hurriedly nodded and smiled: "I know the director, I will personally put on makeup for the stand-in in a while to ensure that the audience can't see it." ”

"Well, you do things, I'm relieved."

The rookie director waved his hand, and then motioned to the assistant director to hurry down and make arrangements.

。。。。。。

"Big Fly!"

"Ahh Assistant Director, what's the matter! The group leader responsible for recruiting extras bowed his head and said.

"Look at the actor you found to be a stand-in, no! It's so fat! ”

"Okay! Assistant director, I'm going to find you another one. ”

"Go! Just go! I'm waiting over there! ”

。。。。。。

"Hey! The sharp-beaked monkey gills! Yes, shouting you! ”

Not far away, Sun Lei, who was about to catch up with another crew, was suddenly stopped by the group leader.
