Volume II 40: New Plays
On April 5, 2014, a film and television company in Huairou, Beijing.
Chen Xue, who was wearing cotton clothes, sat on the bench outside the conference room a little cowardly, and Chen Ruifeng was meeting the group inside, holding his long coat, unable to cheer up. There are more than a dozen male actors in line next to her, all of whom are seriously memorizing lines, remembering positions, and pondering emotions, if she changes to normal times, she must be very interested in observing them, after all, there are not many opportunities to see more than a dozen or twenty male stars at one time.
Today's selection of the fourth male is a TV series with the theme of tomb robbery, produced by the most famous and quality-assured Sunshine Film and Television Company in China, and it is precisely because of the reputation of this company that Chen Ruifeng is willing to audition.
Brother Hua slapped himself in the face again, and at the end of March, he called the two to Beijing, saying that the office of the studio should be determined by Chen Ruifeng, and then after he came, he first met Mr. Zhang of Jingyi (Beijing Art and Culture Investment Company), and then signed a 3-year cooperative investment agreement to establish Chen Ruifeng's personal studio, with both parties accounting for 50% of the shares, and Jingyi is responsible for funding, planning and public relations.
However, there was a little episode during the negotiations, Mr. Zhang proposed to fire Chen Xue and let Li Hao be his personal assistant, on the grounds that he was a man, tall and strong, and could temporarily act as a bodyguard and driver, but Chen Ruifeng directly refused, saying that he would pay the salary and that he would have the final say on her stay. Of course, Chen Xue didn't know about this.
A few days later, Chen Ruifeng decided to set his office next to a forest park in the Fifth Ring Road, mainly after listening to Chen Xue's opinion. Jingyi arranged a duplex building for Chen Ruifeng as a residence, just enough for four people to live in, and it was close to the office.
Today, Chen Ruifeng's role is that he is the deputy of the CEO of a Hong Kong-funded group in the cultural industry, named Mingzi, who handles the affairs of 'antiques' (ancient corpses) for the boss, and the boss decides to find a knowledgeable person to lead the team (male and female protagonists) in order to dig up the thousand-year-old corpse, and he is responsible for 'supervision'. Mingzi is a person who sees people and talks about people, and he talks nonsense, because he handles many antiques from unknown sources, and he will do everything he can to legitimize them, so he can do the position of vice president of the group at a young age, everyone thinks he is a selfish person, and he will be the first to flee when it is a matter of life and death, but he did not expect him to be buried in the tomb to save the boss.
Compared with the male protagonist's 'Wei Guangzheng', he wants to challenge this kind of 'unconventional' role, a two-faced and three-faced person, a person who can use all kinds of means, the key is that he still has an upright face......
"Chen Ruifeng, your understanding is still very consistent with our thoughts, so you go back first, and we will discuss it a few times, there will be results in these two days, and we will contact you then!"
The chief director, producer, screenwriter, and casting director all smiled, Chen Ruifeng nodded and bowed slightly, and exited the rehearsal hall. As soon as he went out, he met a familiar actor, he nodded to him, and then strode out of the company gate. And here, another actor passed by him, pushed the door and went in to try out.
"How is Brother Feng? Did you try it? Chen Xue put on her coat and looked at him expectantly. And wait. "Oh!" Chen Xue was slightly disappointed and sat back on the bench, and Chen Ruifeng sat down beside her.
Chen Xue handed over the thermos cup and told him to drink more water, Beijing is too dry, and as a public figure, he must always be in good condition. Chen Ruifeng listened obediently and drank water obediently. She began to whisper in his ear that she was not suitable for life in Beijing, that she could not eat or sleep well, that she was also allergic, and now she misses Chen's mother's cooking......
"Let's go, go back and I'll cook!"
'Good news, good news, great news! ’
Brother Hua posted three in a row in the WeChat group, blowing up the other three, and they were asking what the good news was.
"The Legend of Han Xi" is confirmed, and Star TV will broadcast exclusively in prime time...... "This is really explosive good news, and the group is full of emojis of fireworks." Chen Xue ran out of her room and went to find Chen Ruifeng. "Chen Ruifeng! Chen Ruifeng! Chen Ruifeng! "I know Xiaoyu." Chen Ruifeng's voice came from the room with joy.
Then everyone got busy. Brother Hua's message was followed by a cheering expression.
"Chen Ruifeng is a star TV! The No. 1 TV station in China except CCTV! Chen Xue was bouncing in front of Chen Ruifeng, he was also happy, but he looked at her dotingly, how happy she was, he was happy, only a little more.
"Is our Brother Feng going to be popular! Li Hao asked gossips, with a snickering expression.
Nine times out of ten. Brother Hua is not modest at all.
"Then should I stock up on Brother Feng's signed photos and sell them for money." Li Hao has already begun to plan to make extra money. Chen Xue also agreed, and sent a 'plus 1!' ’
Brother Hua sent a screenshot of the drama announcement schedule.
'Everyone, let's work hard and make money!' ’
A month and a half later, "Fairy Bone" started shooting in Hengshan Film and Television City in a low-key manner, first filming all the interior scenes of the tomb and some life scenes, and the exterior scenes will go to the southwest Xiannai Ri Snow Mountain for filming.
The crew chose Chen Ruifeng, and he played the role of Mingzi, with more than 100 scenes, most of which were interior scenes, and there were few exterior scenes, which could be filmed in about two months. There was no play for the first week, but he came to watch and study every day, and he would play at what time the crew got out of the play, which made Director Meng (the chief director) like him very much, and often asked him about his understanding of the play that day, and after a long time, the male and female protagonists would also come to discuss it together.
The male protagonist's name is Xiang Tian, and the actor Chen Ruifeng met in the corridor that day when he saw the group was an actor who Jingyi is now highly supporting. He looked at the dramas that he was two years older than Chen Ruifeng and acted in, and this was the first time he played the male lead. There is a layer of colleague relationship, Chen Ruifeng and Xiang Tian get along quite well, after discussing the script for the first time, they often talk to each other together, and often take out snacks to share with Chen Xue to eat.
"Chen Xue and Brother Feng." Although he is older than Chen Ruifeng, Xiang Tian still calls him 'Brother Feng' like everyone else. Chen Xue sat in the rest area and poured a piece of clothing, she wanted to add some heavy color elements to the plain clothes, which could produce a strong visual difference.
How can you not be disgusted and feel harmonious? She was scratching her ears and cheeks, and he sat down next to her, and looked at her for a long time.
Chen Ruifeng ran to watch Director Meng filming half an hour ago, and now he doesn't know where he is. "Uh-huh!" She smiled and nodded, Xiang Tian gave her a feeling of a big brother, and she liked him a lot, although she hadn't seen his play. "What are you doing?" Xiang Tian watched her work on clothes while reading the script.
"I'm ...... It's okay to fool around, I don't know what I'm doing, haha...... "It's a little embarrassing for Chen Xue to tell what she's doing, she is a person who does things by feeling." She smirked at him.
"The clothes that Brother Feng is wearing today won't be your 'processed' work!" 'Processing' Chen Xue felt a little harsh, compared with the famous brand on Xiang Tian's body, it was really not worth seeing. "Hey, hey!" I had to smile to hide my embarrassment. "Chen Xue, I don't mean anything else, I just think your work is very interesting, really!" "Thank you!" Chen Xue didn't want to talk a little. Xiang Tian was also embarrassed and couldn't answer.
"Excuse me!"
