Ningshan film and Television City, an antique block in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
With the wind fumigating willows and the intoxicating fragrance of flowers, it is the spring season in southern China.
On the ancient road of the long street, a green stone road stretches straight forward. Before a magnificent house is built, a flag pole about two feet high is erected in each of the left and right stone altars, and the green flag is flying on the top of the pole.
The yellow silk thread on the right flag is embroidered with a fierce lion with teeth and claws. The flag flutters in the wind, making the lion more energetic. The left flag is embroidered with four black words "Fuwei escort agency". The silver hook and iron stroke are very strong!
The door of the mansion is painted with vermilion. The copper nails the size of a tea cup on the door are glittering. The plaque on the top of the door reads "Fuwei escort agency" in gold paint, and the following two small words "general number" are written horizontally.
At the entrance, there were two rows of benches and eight men with strong clothes, all with straight waists, showing a heroic spirit. (Note 1)
The sound of "dada dada" suddenly sounded, and five knights rushed out from the side door of the escort agency. The leading young knight wore brocade clothes and hung a long sword around his waist, with a faint smile on his handsome face.
More than ten meters away from the knight, two 4K digital cameras worth millions were aimed at them from different positions to take real-time pictures into the lens.
Further afield, it was full of nervous and busy crew members.
As the protagonist of today's shooting, Zhao Haichao, riding on a white horse, has a really complicated mood.
He had fantasized, looked forward to and looked forward to thousands of times, but when this moment really came, he found that he was not as excited and excited as he imagined, and even panic.
Maybe it's because I've been lost, disappointed and sad countless times!
Zhao Haichao is a graduate of Beijing film performance department in 2015. He has been in the film and television industry for four or five years and is no longer a newcomer. However, he has made several film and television plays and has not become popular. It can be said that he is in a rather embarrassing situation.
Zhao Haichao's appearance is actually very good. Otherwise, he could not have defeated hundreds of competitors and was admitted to the Beijing film performance department with high scores. However, he was not lucky. All his roles were minor supporting actors, and several plays were also very popular. He has not accumulated much popularity in recent years.
His career did not improve, but his youth passed ruthlessly like water. At the end of last year, Zhao Haichao ruthlessly took out all his savings, borrowed a lot of money from his relatives and friends, and negotiated with the brokerage company to terminate the contract.
The brokerage company that received a compensation did not embarrass him. It was no big deal for everyone to get together and disperse.
Beijing film's signboard is very loud, but how many students graduate every year can stand out?
The competition in this industry is too fierce. The newcomers entering the circle are one after another. If they want to be famous, they can't rely on their education. They have to know how to hype, have someone to support and be willing to pay... They may not be popular.
Zhao Haichao's family is barely well-off. It's not easy to support him to study Beijing film. There's nothing else he can do, and he doesn't have any contacts to use.
He never expected his family to make a breakthrough with his own efforts and talents.
However, the cruel reality made the once naive boy mature rapidly, but out of his persistence and stubbornness in his character, he did not completely abandon his bottom line.
Two months ago, when Zhao Haichao sent his resume to the email of Chenfei media, he didn't expect to get the chance at all, because the film "Xiaoao Jianghu" attracted too much attention. What's the difference between sending his resume and buying lottery tickets for an unknown little actor like him?
At that time, Zhao Haichao had thought well. If he couldn't find any opportunities in the capital, he agreed to an invitation from a senior brother to shoot an online drama in the deep sea of the south. Although he was also a small role, he could at least earn tens of thousands of yuan.
Zhao Haichao didn't want to play in his dream. He sent out his resume and received a call from Chenfei media in just two days. Let him go for an interview!
When he first received the phone call, Zhao Haichao thought someone had played a prank with him or met a liar.
Then what happened next was like a dream for him - the interview was a success, there was no flicker, there were no hidden rules, the contract treatment was not very high, but it was fair and reasonable, and the role was still an important male partner!
Recalling that he sent the news of passing the interview of Xiaoao Jianghu to his circle of friends, all his classmates and friends thought he was joking, and some even ridiculed, the smile on Zhao Haichao's face became brighter and brighter.
"Ka!"
A loud voice pulled his mind back and made his body tremble involuntarily.
"Yes!"
Zhao Haichao was greatly relieved. He quickly pulled the reins to stop the horse, and turned over and dismounted cleanly.
He learned to ride a horse when shooting an ancient costume film more than a year ago. He suffered a lot and worked hard. Although he can't compare with those real riders, he has mastered a skill.
At that time, Zhao Haichao thought that many skills did not pressure him. He could not be the protagonist and enjoy the treatment of being photographed on horseback. If he knew how to ride a horse, he might have more opportunities to show his face.
The opportunity is for people who are prepared. Now it comes in handy. In fact, during the interview, he was asked whether he can ride a horse. Zhao Haichao thought this should be his own scoring item.
"Well done..."
Director Chen Guozhi stood up from his chair and said to Zhao Haichao, "prepare for the next play!"
"The next game is a real test..."
Lu Chen said this to Zhao Haichao. He has always been with Chen Guozhi.
Chen Guozhi's directing of "Xiaoao Jianghu" is limited to the first film "sword out of Huashan", and Lu Chen decided to direct the next two films himself. He is very aware of his weakness in directing, so he invited Chen Guozhi to come this time, which is also "learning from his teacher".
Chen Guozhi's directing skills are profound and incomparable, and he is willing to give advice. Although the shooting time is not long, Lu Chen has benefited a lot. After all this film is shot, he has the foundation of independent directing.
Lu Chen was also very satisfied with Zhao Haichao's performance just now. At the beginning, he chose Zhao Haichao to play Lin Pingzhi. Facts have proved that his vision is not wrong.
This is a piece of jade. With a little consideration, it can bloom its due light!
Lu Chen is also looking forward to the same performance in the next play.
"Director Chen, director Lu, I will work hard!"
Zhao Haichao nodded hard, surprised and inexplicable.
It's not easy for him to meet a big director like Chen Guozhi. He can't talk to a big guy like Lu Chen. It's different from the current treatment!
He seemed to see that a beautiful new world was opening its door to himself.
Life has changed since then!
