Chapter Seventy-Four: Live with Me

Cao Ping could see that although Tony Leung was continuing to insist very seriously, he was already very tired, his moves had lost his strength, and he was a little out of shape, so it would definitely not look good when filmed like this. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Sure enough, it didn't take long for Wong Kar-wai to stop with a calm face, and he said, "That's it for today! Everyone has worked hard, and will continue tomorrow." As soon as the voice fell, the staff began to mess up the props and equipment, and the assistant hurriedly ran over with a blanket to surround Tony Leung, who walked quickly to the nanny car, wiping the water with a towel, looking not very interested.

Xiao Fang took Cao Ping to Director Wang and said with a smile: "Hello Director Wang, I am Xiao Fang of Sparkle Roll, this is Cao Ping introduced by Jackie Chan, he should have mentioned it to you." ”

"Oh?" Director Wang looked at Cao Ping with interest, looked up and down, frowned slightly, but still reached out and shook Cao Ping's hand, and said with a smile: "You are welcome to join, I will let Xiao Li take you to arrange accommodation." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and called a small assistant, and said to the assistant, "Take this Mr. Cao to the hotel to arrange a room." After speaking, he nodded to Cao Ping, and walked away, but he didn't say anything more.

Assistant Li said, "Come with me." Just lead the way in front, Xiao Fang and Cao Ping followed behind, Xiao Fang pulled Cao Ping to walk a little slower, and whispered to him: "It seems that Director Wang is not very good for your first impression, and you can only look at yourself later, I will find a place to live near your hotel, we can only meet at night, you have to pay attention to everything." ”

Cao Ping asked, "Aren't you going with me?"

Xiao Fang shook his head and said, "Didn't you listen to Director Wang only say that I would arrange a room for you? You were introduced by Jackie Chan's eldest brother, and he wanted to give Jackie Chan face, but I was just a little assistant, and I was not qualified to talk to him at all." ”

Cao Ping had no choice but to nod and think to himself, since this is the case, he has to be more careful during this time, he hurried up and asked Xiao Fang: "Then why do you think Director Wang has a bad impression of me?"

Xiao Fang thought for a while and said: "I guess, it's because of your age, you look a little small, and you look more delicate, not like a person who practices martial arts, but like an idol actor, Jackie Chan is introducing you to be a martial arts finger, but Director Wang may think that you are a newcomer that Jackie Chan wants to support, and he came here to gild, so I'm a little unhappy, right? But this is all my guess, there may be other reasons? Anyway, during this time, you have to keep a low profile, communicate more with the crew, cultivate contacts, and be careful in everything!" Let's keep talking, I'll contact you when I book a room, and I'll look for you in the evening. ”

walked to the crew's car, Assistant Li took Cao Ping to the car, and Xiao Fang went to drive to find a place to live. After getting into the car, Assistant Li pointed to the seat behind him and said to Cao Ping: "You sit there, wait for two more people to drive." After speaking, he sat down in the seat next to the door, and a man who looked like a drama clerk politely helped him pat off the melon seed skin on the seat.

Cao Ping looked at the people in the carriage, they were all unfamiliar faces, they should be staff, they were all strong men, everyone looked at him curiously, being watched by so many people made Cao Ping feel a sense of crisis, and finally suppressed the glitch in his heart, Cao Ping walked back down the aisle, found a vacant seat to sit down, Cao Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

A man next to him who only had a layer of stubble on his head accosted Cao Ping and asked, "Brother, what are you doing? Looking at the face, the crew hasn't been a newcomer for a long time." ”

Cao Ping opened his mouth and said, "I'm here to be a martial artist." ”

"Yo he?" The man glanced at him up and down, the disdain in his eyes didn't bother to hide it at all, and laughed: "Brother, your cowhide is blown up, this car is all martial arts, why haven't I heard that our Yuan family class has such a young martial arts finger?

Cao Ping didn't smile, just looked at him quietly and said, "I was introduced by Jackie Chan." ”

The laughter in the carriage stopped abruptly, and the man looked at him, his tone became yin and yang, and he said: "Yo! It's really disrespectful! It turns out to be the eldest brother from the family class! But I said, did your family class cross the line? This drama was punched and kicked by our Yuan family class, why? You want to come and pick peaches!"

"That's it! What's wrong with the family class? Aren't you just arrogant in this one-third of an acre? When you go abroad, Hollywood recognizes us!"

"Haha! If you want me to say, even if you want to pick peaches, send a stronger one! Send a boy who hasn't grown any hair, and send a box lunch! Hahaha!"

The people in the carriage laughed loudly, Cao Ping's eyes narrowed, and he didn't say a word, he didn't expect that in the martial arts circle, the gap between factions would be so serious.

Assistant Li stood up and shouted: "What are you arguing about? I don't look tired, am I? Why don't you go down and shoot a few more shots? People were personally recommended by Brother Jackie Chan, and I said hello to Director Wang, you are not happy, go to Director Wang to react!"

The martial artists in the carriage all quieted down, and the people next to Assistant Li hurriedly laughed and said, "Assistant Li is angry, aren't we kidding? I'm tired of a day, happy and happy, ...... said, stood up and shouted to the back: "You guys are all honest, Qingpi! Why are you provoking people? You're full of food!"

Qingpi smiled with a hippie smile, glanced at Cao Ping, turned his head to talk to the people around him, and the carriage was quiet, only a few whispers came from time to time.

Cao Ping looked at the car quietly, it can be seen that these martial artists are very xenophobic, a few words of kung fu, he has been isolated, and the martial arts behind him is not easy to do! However, judging from the situation that Assistant Li suppressed these martial artists in a few words, Director Wang's control over the crew is in an absolute position, and a small assistant is so useful when he speaks, so Director Wang speaks, which is naturally the effect of the ban.

Since he is isolated, Cao Ping is also happy to be idle, looking out the window, and taking a step at a time.

When he arrived at the hotel, Assistant Li took Cao Ping to the front desk to check in, and the hotel was chartered by the crew. The front desk took a look and told Assistant Li that there was no spare room, and half of the rooms in the hotel next to it were rented by the crew for a long time, Assistant Li was going to take Cao Ping to open a room over there, and was just about to turn around and go out, when he met a man in sportswear at the elevator, Assistant Li opened his mouth to say hello: "Brother Zhen, go out for a night run?" It turned out to be Zhang Zhen, an actor from the crew.

Zhang Zhen nodded and said, "Assistant Li, don't you rest yet?"

Assistant Li smiled: "I'll take him to Junyue to open a room." ”

Zhang Zhen saw Cao Ping and asked, "What is this?"

Cao Ping stretched out his hand and said, "Brother Zhen, hello, I'm a new martial artist." ”

Zhang Zhen raised his eyebrows, a little happy, and said, "Yes, what kind of boxing are you learning? I am learning Bajiquan, we can communicate when we have time!"

Cao Ping said modestly: "I have long heard of Brother Zhen's skills, and I am ashamed to have won the national championship after practicing Bajiquan for three years." ”

Zhang Zhen smiled, obviously this matter is also his pride, he can mention it when someone who knows his life opens, he seems very happy, and his tone is a little kind, he asked again: "Why did you go to Junyue to live?

Assistant Li spoke: "I asked the front desk just now, there is no spare room." ”

Zhang Zhen said: "Then you live with me, I live in a standard room with two beds." ”

Cao Ping was a little stunned and said, "Isn't this okay? won't it disturb your rest?"

Zhang Zhen said disapprerovingly: "It's okay, I'm bored living alone, you live with me and we can have a discussion, what's the matter?"

Saying this, Cao Ping still refused, so he had to smile and say: "How can it! As long as Brother Zhen doesn't dislike me, I want to have a companion." ”

Zhang Zhen smiled: "Then it's decided, I'll go for a run first, you go up to rest, the room is a little messy, haha." So saying, he turned and ran out the door.

Assistant Li looked at Cao Ping unexpectedly and smiled, didn't speak, took Cao Ping back to the front desk and opened a room card, sent Cao Ping to Zhang Zhen's room, and said to him: " Mr. Cao, there are a few precautions to tell you, the crew is starting work at eight o'clock, tomorrow morning at seven o'clock downstairs to take the crew's car over, breakfast is on the 2nd floor, the crew is strictly forbidden to outsiders to enter the set, so, the assistant who came with you is not allowed to visit the studio, if there are special circumstances, you need to make a special application for the director, and there are other mobile phones on the set to vibrate and the like, all of which are the same as other crews, so much for the time being, you can rest first, you leave my phone, you can contact me if you have something. ”

Cao Ping remembered Assistant Li's phone number and sent Assistant Li away.

Entering the room, Cao Ping found that although it was a standard room, the space was still quite large, and the room was definitely not as messy as Zhang Zhen said, but the quilt on the bed was not folded, and the clothes were all hung in the wardrobe and sorted one by one. There was a stack of books on the bedside table and a stack of scripts.

Cao Ping found out that the luggage was all in Xiao Fang's car, and quickly called him to help deliver it. After a while, Xiao Fang came over with his luggage.

After entering the house, Xiao Fang asked strangely, "Who are you living with?"

"Zhang Zhen. Cao Ping took out all his clothes and put them on the bed to make up, and Xiao Fang said excitedly when he heard this: "Really, not bad! How did you get on with Zhang Zhen? Director Wang is very optimistic about him." ”

Cao Ping simply told Xiao Fang what he had just done. Xiao Fang nodded and said: "Yes, you handled it well, Zhang Zhen is a very good actor, he won the Hong Kong Golden Horse Award for Best Actor at the age of 15, his strength should not be underestimated, and he is definitely optimistic about his future development." And he is a very stable actor, although he has gained popularity from "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" directed by Ang Lee, he can still calm down, and the feature films he has made over the years have also been repeatedly shortlisted for international film festivals, and the box office of the commercial film "Red Cliff" is also good, Ang Lee, John Woo, including Director Wang, have a good impression of him, and you have a good relationship with him, which will be very helpful to your future development. ”

Cao Ping didn't speak, he didn't agree with it a little, in the process of short contact with Zhang Zhen, he felt that Zhang Zhen was not a very serious person, it was relatively simple, so he didn't want to deliberately approach or have a relationship with him, Cao Ping has always thought that making friends is a two-sided thing, as long as both parties agree with each other, then everything will fall into place, and deliberately getting closer to the relationship will fall behind.

"Di!" As soon as the door rang, Zhang Zhen brushed open the door and came in, Xiao Fang hurriedly said hello, Zhang Zhen ran out of a fine sweat, Xiao Fang saw his discomfort, and left with a sense of humor.

Zhang Zhen took off his sportswear, wore only a pair of pants, and asked Cao Ping, "Do you use the bathroom?" ”

Cao Ping shook his head and said, "No, you can wash it!"

Zhang Zhen took out a pair of clean shorts and whistled into the bathroom.
