The so-called film and television shooting base refers to the "Republic of China Street", which is a characteristic block with the theme of "History of the Republic of China" and "Characteristics of the Accompanying Capital", which reproduces the famous buildings and scenery of the Republic of China period, such as theaters, newspapers, photo studios, museums, etc., since the construction, there are many film and television dramas with the theme of the Republic of China filmed and released here, and now it has become a scene of the accompanying capital.

Wei Bing's old friend is called Zhang Zixin, who is not too famous, he is the sixth generation of cutting-edge directors who have just emerged in the film and television industry, that is, a group of young directors who entered the directing department of the film school in the mid and late 80s and began to direct movies in the 90s.

Because this generation of directors has personally felt the major changes brought about by the transformation of the economic system to social relations, interpersonal relationships, and family relationships, they pay more attention to some social realities that are taboo and unspeakable in terms of concepts and content of their works, so they focus more on interpreting the real life conditions and inner activities of marginal characters in terms of subject matter.

Mu Yuan flipped through the script, which is a film and television work with a literary theme, describing the struggle and psychological struggle of a group of low-level people in social changes, and it is still very good overall. But as director Wei Bing said, this is an experimental exploration film, and the best result is whether it is popular or not, but if a cutting-edge director wants to gain a place in the film and television industry, he often needs to go through this process - make literary films and win awards, and only after gaining fame can he get investment and enter the commercial film circle.

As soon as they arrived at the film and television base, Xia Xue and others also arrived, the doors of four or five commercial vehicles were opened at the same time, and twenty or thirty people just got off the bus, and the tourists around immediately screamed, and then the flow of people in the whole block rushed towards this side. Xia Xue made a look, and Wu Yu hurriedly led the security guards to surround Mu Yuan and a few girls, and used a human wall to block the fans outside.

"Don't get excited, don't get excited!" The crab pulled at its neck and shouted, "So as not to cause accidental injury, please step back!" ”

Rao is crab shouted out his throat, but the enthusiastic fans did not have the slightest intention of retreating, but squeezed more and more. At this moment, Zhang Zixin arrived with the crew and the management personnel of the film and television base, and escorted Mu Yuan and Crayfish to the set, and walked for more than half an hour in a short distance of 100 meters.

"Crayfish, are you here to make a movie today?"

"Muyuan, are you the protagonist?"

"Crayfish, I have donated to your charity fund, we support you!"

After entering the quarantine area of the filming site, the fans were all stopped outside, but they did not stop at all, asking all kinds of strange questions. Mu Yuan and Zhang Zixin exchanged glances, and after getting the other party's consent, they arched him in the middle with the crayfish, and all the team members slapped them in one line and spread them out to both sides.

"I have seen a movie directed by Zhang Zixin before, and I like his movie material, and I feel very honored after receiving Director Zhang's invitation, so I came with Crayfish and team members to make cameo appearances in some roles!" Makihara said.

"Is there any pay this time? Can you tell us how much? ”

"This time it's purely a help between friends, it's just a cameo, and there is no pay!" Crayfish said.

"And what role are you going to play?"

"This point is still up to Director Zhang to answer!" Xia Xue smiled slightly, and then let Zhang Zixin out.

Just when the "press conference" was held in front of the noisy meeting, there was a person behind the set who was looking at this side with hateful eyes, this resentful woman was Cheng Siyi, she was the only focus here before Mu Yuan and others appeared, but now all the aura has been sucked away, making her a passerby.

There is also a cream boy sitting not far from Cheng Siyi, if Cheng Siyi is a resentful woman, this guy is a veritable angry young man, because he suffered a big loss from Muyuan when he was in Rongcheng, not only was he almost disfigured by Niwa, but he was also kicked into the pool by Muyuan and turned into a soup chicken.

Who? A member of an idol group in South Korea, Lee Jong-min!

After chatting with fans for a while, Mu Yuan and the others were taken into the makeshift dressing room, and Zhang Zixin gently patted Mu Yuan's shoulder to show gratitude. After some exposure just now, his drama became popular before filming, as long as it can be bombarded by the media in turn, it can save a lot of publicity money, which is undesirable for small-budget films.

"Big star, long time no see!" Zhang Cong walked in with a smile.

"Brother Cong!" The original master stretched out his hand to the other party, and his attitude was both humble and enthusiastic.

"You kid!" Zhang Cong lightly punched Mu Yuan's chest and hugged his shoulder affectionately, "I didn't expect to cooperate again so soon, come, sign my brother first!" ”

"Brother Cong, aren't you laughing at me, don't do this between us!" Makihara smiled and said, "If you want to sign an autograph, you can go to Crayfish, she has just practiced a new autograph, and she is worried that she has nowhere to play!" ”

"Okay, yes, it hasn't changed at all, it's still so righteous!"

This Zhang Cong was one of the players in last year's draft competition, and was originally eliminated in the quarterfinals because of shady, but after the scandal broke out in the competition, he was called back again, and finally won the third place in the finals. Hua Manlin intended to sign him as well, but for some reason, Zhang Cong politely refused.

"Brother Cong, our group is the first big girl to go to the sedan chair, you have to help more when you play for a while!"

"Ugh!" Zhang Cong was stunned for a moment, and then asked tentatively, "What?" You don't know the latest changes? ”

"Change? What's changing? Makihara asked curiously.

Zhang Cong thought about it for a while and understood, Mu Yuan and others came to make cameos, many people didn't even have lines, and it was impossible to inform them about the crew changes.

"Originally, I was the male lead in this drama, but three days ago, the investor rejected the previous plan, and I ...... Now it's the second male lead! ”

"Male number two?" Mu Yuan was stunned, "Who is the male number one?" ”

"Lee Jong-min, a second-rate idol group in South Korea, disbanded because the results were not as expected, and then came to China to develop!"

"Is the investor Hua Wenzhuo?"

"You can guess that?" Zhang Cong asked in surprise, "This news hasn't been released yet, your news is well-informed enough!" ”

"It's not difficult to guess, Li Zhongmin signed a contract with Hua Wenzhuo's film and television company, and the relationship between Cheng Siyi and Hua Wenzhuo is not shallow!"

"Mu Yuan, I heard that you and Hua Wenzhuo have a bit of a holiday, but you must give a face today, this book has been tossed back and forth for several years, and it is not easy for Director Zhang to pull in investment!"

"Brother Cong, what is the relationship between you and Director Zhang?"

"We are fellow countrymen, from a small city! He is 20 years older than me, and he has just graduated from film school to do photography, I met him by chance, and we are very close to each other, and I do chores for him! I was planning this movie with him long before the draft, and I was able to perform so well thanks to his help! ”

"Then did you reject Sister Manlin also because of Director Zhang?"

"I know the agency better than you, many people lose their freedom once they sign a contract, and they can't even make decisions about what to film, and my interest is not in acting, I prefer to learn directing." Zhang Cong sighed, "There must always be a beginning and an end to doing things, no matter what, let's put this book on the screen first!" Fortunately, I didn't refuse, if I don't have anything to eat one day, you have to help me say good things to Sister Manlin! ”

Mu Yuan didn't speak, but looked into Zhang Cong's eyes and nodded heavily.

Mu Yuan knew in his heart that if one day Zhang Cong really couldn't even mix up his food, he would never come to him to help plead, this person is a tough guy, there is an indomitable energy in his heart, and his pursuit of art and ideals is not something that can be broken by simple setbacks. But what Zhang Cong said is not a cliché, if he really comes to the door one day, it means that he is 100% sure that he is here to seek cooperation, not to beg.
