Chapter 188, What's My Matter? (2-in-1 chapter)

At three o'clock in the afternoon, a plane landed at Zhudian Airport.

A middle-aged man walked out of the airport, dressed casually, jeans and a white shirt, a sun hat on his head, and a pair of sunglasses on his face.

The luggage is very simple, just a shoulder bag, and nothing else.

After leaving the airport, I got into a car that had been parked outside the airport for a long time.

After getting into the car, he took off his hat and sunglasses.

His hair was somewhat white, cut short, and his skin was dark, and at first glance he looked more like an old peasant.

But it is such a middle-aged man who looks like an old farmer, but he is Li Chaoxian, one of the top TV drama directors in this country.

Winner of the Best TV Drama Director for two consecutive years.

"Director Li, you've had a hard journey." A young man in the car was sitting in the passenger seat.

"It's not hard, it's just an hour's flight."

"Director Hou just called me and said that he had come back from the set and had arrived at the natural residence, let's go to the natural residence for a meal first, and pick you up and wash the dust."

Li Chaoxian smiled and shook his head: "This old marquis, who has been friends for decades, is still so polite." ”

The car drove from the airport to the outskirts of the city.

On the outskirts of the city, stop in front of a very quaint but elegant courtyard.

On the outside door of this courtyard hangs a sign: Natural Residence.

Natural Residence is a very famous private dish here in the Zhudian Cinema, the owner's craftsmanship comes from the palace cuisine of the year, and after cooperating with a catering group, it is going to be high-end.

Those who can come here to eat are either rich or expensive, and they have to spend at least one or two hundred thousand yuan for a meal.

If you want the chef to cook it himself, the price is even higher.

After entering the natural residence, you can see the lush greenery in the courtyard, and the southern garden style makes people go back to ancient times at once.

The young man walked Li Chaoxian down a long corridor to the outside of a box at the back.

There were a few people seated in the box.

He knocked lightly on the door that was already open.

"Director Hou, Director Li has arrived."

In the middle of the box, a little old man with gray hair and a little short body stood up and greeted him directly.

The hands of the two were clasped tightly.

"Brother Li, I'm looking forward to you."

"Brother Hou, I'm not here, it's been three or four years since the last goodbye, didn't I happen to be doing things in a nearby city, I knew that you were filming in a vertical store, so I came to talk to my brother about the old days."

"Since it's a reminiscence, then we have to have a few drinks, you see.... I've taken out all the wine I've treasured for more than ten years, and I'm waiting for you to come. ”

Li Chaoxian smiled: "Then drink a few glasses." ”

"Just waiting for your words, we won't get drunk tonight."

"If you don't get drunk, you won't return."

The two of them came to the circular revolving table and took their seats, and began to eat and drink.

It was originally a very common dinner with friends.

During this time, a few waiters came in to serve the food and clean the table.

One of the waiters, who was very young and a little tall, helped Li Chaoxian clean the bones and crab shells on the table.

Li Chaoxian said thank you in a polite manner.

It's his habit.

The waiter smiled and said a word of you're welcome.

When the waiter left, Li Chaoxian casually took a few more looks, and only felt that this young man was a little familiar.

But I can't remember where I've seen it.

But then all his attention was on catching up with this big brother Hou.

This Hou Yinxing was earlier than Li Chaoxian, when Li Chaoxian was not yet popular, he worked as an assistant director in Director Hou's crew for more than ten years.

Later, there was a good script that needed to be filmed, but Director Hou didn't have time, so he recommended Li Chaoxian to try it.

As a result, the first play became popular.

Since then, Li Chaoxian has begun to set up his own crew and work alone.

This Hou Dao is also quite supportive, and there are a few times when he encounters some trouble, but this Hou De helps.

It can be said that Director Hou has the grace of knowing Li Chaoxian.

After three rounds of wine, the dishes on the wine table were almost the same, and the bottles of wine brought by Director Hou also bottomed out.

The faces of everyone at the table were a little red.

One of the last of the course book Hou Dao.

He blushed, grabbed Li Chaoxian's hand, and said: "Brother Li, I entered the industry at the age of eighteen, and officially filmed one of my own dramas at the age of twenty-five. ”

Li Chaoxian smiled: "Brother, I have never forgotten your kindness to me, but I am filming outside on weekdays, and I can't even go home a few times a year, so there is no way to do what we do."

No, I know that you are filming in the vertical store, which is just not far away, so I booked a ticket and came directly. ”

Director Hou smiled and said, "I knew that you were my good brother." ”

His words changed sharply and said: "Brother, you should know that I have started to stop taking on dramas recently, and when I am old, I can't bear this kind of high-intensity work." ”

"Brother, you've been filming for so many years, and you've worked hard for so many years, it's time to rest."

"My friend and I have set up a film and television drama investment company, ready to specialize in film and television dramas, from the front-line crew to the behind-the-scenes film and television drama investment, which inevitably deals with some CEOs, among which there is a boss who asked me for one thing, there is a young man who wants you to meet."

Before Li Chaoxian could speak, the Hou Dao said again: "Of course, whether you want to see it or not, I don't care what you talked about when you meet, I only promised to help him introduce him, I don't know if the elder brother is willing to help the elder brother with this little favor." ”

Director Hou has talked about this, and Li Chaoxian has no reason to refuse.

His expression just now froze for a moment, smiled again, and said, "Since my brother said it, let's meet when we meet." ”

Director Hou saw that Li Chaoxian agreed, and everyone else at the dinner table also left.

When Li Chaoxian saw this battle, he knew that the other party was prepared.

Then, through the door, a young man, about twenty-four or five years old, dressed in a casual shirt, could not tell what he was doing.

As soon as the young man came in, he greeted Li Chaoxian and said, "Director Li, hello, first time we meet, my name is Lin Feng, Shuangmu Lin, Maple of Maple Leaf." ”

Li Chaoxian squinted at Lin Feng and asked, "Is that you want to see me?" I don't know what you're looking for me? ”

"That's right, I'm actor Xiao Yibo's agent, and I want to talk to you to see if I can give Xiao Yibo a chance to audition."

When Li Chaoxian heard Xiao Yibo's name, his face suddenly became a little stern.

"Hmph, those traffic stars are also worthy of playing my TV series? I only have two words, don't think. ”

After speaking, Li Chaoxian twisted his head to the side and said, "Please go back, there is no need to talk about this matter." ”

Lin Feng had long expected that Li Chaoxian would not be so persuasive, but he didn't expect the other party's attitude to be so resolute.

"Director Li, the ancients, Shi Bei should be impressed for three days, I don't think we should look at things with old eyes, besides, when you met Xiao Yibo just now, wasn't it also good?"

"See Xiao Yibo?" Li Chaoxian was full of doubts and asked, "When will I meet Xiao Yibo." ”

Lin Feng smiled and said outside, "Come in." ”

Then, a young man in a white shirt and army-green pants, tucked into his pants, and wearing a pair of thick glasses on his face came in from outside.

After the young man walked in, he said timidly-->>

[Reading updates load slowly, there are ads, chapters are incomplete, please exit Reading and read!] 】

Li Chaoxian said hello: "Li.... Director Li. ”

Niches

"Is that you?"

Li Chaoxian recognized it.

The young man was the waiter who had just cleaned the bones on the table for him, and there was a brief exchange between the two.

At the time he just thought the young man was a little familiar, but now he understood it all.

This waiter is none other than Xiao Yibo.

Lin Feng gave Xiao Yibo a look.

Xiao Yibo hurriedly said: "Director Li, I really want to act in your play, please give me a chance to audition." ”

His tone was very earnest.

Director Li did not respond positively, but looked directly at Xiao Yibo with a sharp gaze. ,

The director seems to have a blade hidden in his eyes.

He smiled and asked, "I ask you, why are you acting in my play?" With your popularity? With your traffic? Or by your fans. I'm sorry, I want an actor, not a traffic star. ”

Xiao Yibo was a little disappointed by Li Chaoxian's words.

At this time, Lin Feng next to him smiled and said, "Director Li, I think you seem to be a little biased, I think Xiao Yibo is a very suitable actor for your TV series." ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Chaoxian's sharp gaze fell on Lin Feng's body.

He squinted at Lin Feng.

"What did you just say, do you dare to say it again."

This Director Li is like a tyrant on the set, and no one dares to disobey him.

It can be said that it is the same.

Now I am actually being said by a young man to be prejudiced.

The atmosphere in the private room instantly became solemn.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Director Hou hurriedly poured wine into Li Chaoxian's cup with a smile, and said: "Brother Li, don't be like young people, these young people are not sensible, let's not care, this person is not suitable." ”

He gave Lin Feng a look: "You guys go down first." ”

Lin Feng didn't move a step.

He stood there, motionless.

He opened his mouth and said, "Director Li, please allow me to finish my words."

I read the script of your "Army Soul", it is really a good script, it tells the story of two young people in the barracks who have grown step by step from recruits to the pillars of the army, I think it can move people, it is a spirit.

Even though he knew that he was a backward soldier in the ranks, he still did not give up and pursued the spirit of progress.

You see Xiao Yibo's clothes, I took him to the farmer's market today to buy them, and his hair was shaved by an uncle who spent five yuan at the farmers' market. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Feng smiled.

He saw that the expression on Li Chaoxian's face also softened a lot.

Lin Feng continued: "Xiao Yibo, he was originally a traffic star, a little fresh meat, to put it mildly, he relied on a good-looking skin to eat in the entertainment industry. Now, in order to fight for an audition, he has given up his most valuable things in the entertainment industry, cut his most popular fashion hairstyle into a rustic flat head, and at the same time wear clothes that belong to that era. It's not just a change of look, it's a gamble on chance. ”

"But he doesn't know how to act at all, I want actors, you understand."

When Lin Feng heard Li Chaoxian's words, he saw an opportunity.

"Director Li, I think as far as your drama is concerned, not being able to act is Xiao Yibo's advantage."

Li Chaoxian heard Lin Feng say this, and smiled: "I can't act, it's still an advantage, what kind of truth is this." ”

"If you don't know how to act, the things that are reflected are more real, if you are too good at acting, the taste of performance in this play will be too heavy, and the taste of performance will affect the texture of this play, I watched the two TV series you filmed before, and the actors used in them are some third- and fourth-tier actors, and some have even only made guest appearances in some TV series, and some people have even never acted.

This is also the biggest reason why your two TV series can achieve both ratings and word-of-mouth. ”

Lin Feng turned his head to look at Xiao Yibo and said: "Director Li, look at Xiao Yibo now, both in shape and temperament, it is very suitable for the role of Xu Changyuan in your script, Xu Changyuan's character is a student who is preparing to take the university entrance examination, his image is white and pure, his personality is scholarly, and he is also a little stupid, I think Xiao Yibo's image and temperament can support this role."

Since the role of Xu Changchang is to grow after entering the team, if Xiao Yibo is allowed to play this role, the growth of this role and the transformation of his personality will seem more real, because this is not only the growth of the role in filming, but also the process of becoming a real actor under your tutelage. ”

At the end, Lin Feng lost no time in patting Li Chaoxian's ass.

Li Chaoxian looked at Lin Feng and Xiao Yibo, and suddenly spoke.

"Your name is Lin Feng?"

Lin Feng didn't know why Li Chaoxian would ask like this.

He nodded and responded, "Director Li, my name is Lin Feng, Shuangmu Lin, the maple of maple leaves." ”

"You kid is good, you understand my script well enough, and you have a good appetite for me, do you want to come to my crew as an executive director or something?"

Lin Feng didn't expect Li Chaoxian to invite him to be the executive director.

The executive director is the assistant to the chief director, helping the director handle the work on the set.

Lin Feng smiled and shook his head: "Thank you Director Li for your love, but the interlacing is like a mountain, I have just started in the agent industry, and I have achieved a little bit, and besides, I am quite satisfied with the current industry, and I have no intention of changing careers." ”

Lin Feng declined Li Chaoxian's invitation.

He came this time to make a cameo appearance as Xiao Yibo's agent, and he came to help when he came, and he was not interested in making movies.

There is an investment in movies.

"That's a shame." Li Chaoxian sighed.

His gaze fell on Xiao Yibo again.

Xiao Yibo saw Li Chaoxian suddenly looking straight at him, he was scared, and lowered his head suddenly.

Li Chaoxian nodded.

"Look at your timid and scared look, you really feel a little stupid."

"Okay, I'll give you a chance to audition, after a week of auditions for our crew, there are now five actors participating in the audition, not one more than you, so be it."

When Xiao Yibo heard this, he was stunned.

Lin Feng hurriedly turned around and reminded, "Thank you Director Li for not hurrying up." ”

Xiao Yibo came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "Thank you Director Li, thank you Director Li." ”

"Okay, Brother Hou, next time I set up a 'Hongmen Banquet' like this, I won't come."

Director Hou said with a smile: "Look at what you said, what a Hongmen banquet." ”

He turned to Lin Feng and Xiao Yibo and said, "There's nothing to do here, you guys go out first, my brother Li and I still have to catch up with the old days." ”

"Okay, then let's take our leave."

Lin Feng left the box with Xiao Yibo.

After going out, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

He could see that half of the reason why Li Chaoxian agreed to give Xiao Yibo the opportunity to audition was for Director Hou's face.

After all, this is a dinner arranged by his eldest brother, and more or less face still has to be given.

However, Xiao Yibo successfully won the opportunity to audition, and Lin Feng's task this trip was successfully completed.

The favor he owed Wan Xiaoxia before can be repaid.

I can go back to Star City tomorrow.

As for whether Xiao Yibo can pass the audition later........ What the hell is going on with me?

Lin Feng only promised to help fight for opportunities, but did not say that he would help pass the audition.

Now that the opportunity to audition has been obtained, how to get it later is something that Wan Xiaoxia has to worry about.

Lin Feng made up his mind and resolutely did not wade into this troubled water.
