Actor without ambition

Chapter 153 "Green Red"

Zhang Yuxuan looked at Gao Yuanyuan a little speechlessly.

"The movie you introduced to me, you have no feeling for the movie—"

"Let me tell the truth. In fact, not only this "Green Red", but also "Bicycle" by Wang Xiaoshuai last time. It didn't feel too much, and it didn't feel like a substitute." Gao Yuanyuan said frankly.

"Well, let me tell the truth, I don't have any feelings for this kind of movie." Zhang Yuxuan also confessed.

Gao Yuanyuan couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

"Sister Yuanyuan, which role should I play in Qinghong's movie?" Zhang Yuxuan flipped through the script and asked again.

"The number one male, of course it is the number one male." Gao Yuanyuan said in a natural tone.

"Male number one? It's pretty good, but I think the age is a bit inappropriate." Zhang Yuxuan rubbed his chin.

"Ah? The age is not suitable? No way? Your age is quite suitable!" Gao Yuanyuan looked at Zhang Yuxuan in puzzlement.

"I'm not that old—" Zhang Yuxuan frowned.

"What's not so old - wait, this guy wants to take advantage of me!" Gao Yuanyuan glared at Zhang Yuxuan.

"No? You said you want me to play the male lead. Isn't the male lead in this play Qing Hong's father?" Zhang Yuxuan said with a smile.

"You guy wants to be my father? It's too much." Gao Yuanyuan glared at Zhang Yuxuan angrily.

"Xiao Gen, from beginning to end, only a few minutes of the scene? You say this is the male lead?" Zhang Yuxuan teased.

"Um, I'm going to be the number one girl in Qinghong, so Xiao Gen is naturally the number one male." Gao Yuanyuan also felt that Xiao Gen's name as the number one male was a bit misleading.

"Okay, okay, just say yes."

……

Wang Xiaoshuai looked at Zhang Yuxuan, at Zhang Yuxuan's handsome face.

To be honest, Wang Xiaoshuai felt that Zhang Yuxuan was a little too handsome. Although the male actors in his movies would not deliberately choose ugly ones, Zhang Yuxuan looked a little too handsome.This kind of face, in his movies, will make people think it's a play.

In addition to being too handsome and making people play, there is another point.It's a pay issue.

"Zhang Yuxuan, how much is your salary now?" Wang Xiaoshuai asked.

"Salary? I haven't made a movie before. The salary of a TV series is now [-] per episode."

"One episode, fifteen thousand—" Wang Xiaoshuai's mouth twitched.

Although Wang Xiaoshuai didn't lose money making movies, he really couldn't afford to hire high-paid actors.

Zhang Yuxuan pays 50 yuan for an episode of a TV series. If he shoots a [-]-episode TV series, Zhang Yuxuan can get a salary of [-] million yuan.And the total investment for one of his movies is only one hundred thousand.

"Director Wang, I haven't made a movie before, so I'm still a newcomer in the movie industry, so you can give me [-] yuan for the movie." Zhang Yuxuan knew what was going on by looking at Wang Xiaoshuai's expression.His salary is higher, Wang Xiaoshuai is afraid that he will pat his ass and leave.

Wang Xiaoshuai was taken aback after hearing what Zhang Yuxuan said: "Fifteen thousand?"

"Well, the main reason is that I really want to cooperate with you, Director Wang, so the salary aspect is not important at all."

Hearing what Zhang Yuxuan said, Wang Xiaoshuai felt a lot better.

Although the actor Wang Xiaoshuai originally planned to hire was only paid 8000 yuan, Zhang Yuxuan's [-] yuan was doubled.But with Zhang Yuxuan's current reputation, it's really a good deal to add a few thousand yuan.

There is no problem with the salary, but looking at Zhang Yuxuan's face: "This movie I shot is a period movie in the 70s and [-]s, so if you want to participate in it, you have to look ugly. Your face is too handsome. . Can you accept this?"

"Of course I can accept it, it's normal to act ugly when filming." Zhang Yuxuan nodded quickly.

"Well, that's fine, the role of Xiao Gen is yours." Wang Xiaoshuai made the decision directly.

Does this process count as an audition?It doesn't seem to count, because Wang Xiaoshuai didn't let Zhang Yuxuan perform anything, or show off his acting skills.

The reason for this is that on the one hand, the role of Xiao Gen really doesn't have many roles, and there are even fewer places that require acting skills.

Another point is that Wang Xiaoshuai is quite confident in his directing ability, and he is confident that he can train qualified acting skills.

Of course, the main reason is that Xiao Gen's role in the show is so small that it is a bit like a cameo.

……

Li Ling looked at Zhang Yuxuan with astonishment.

"Yuxuan, you go out today, and then, you will become the leading man in the new movie directed by Wang Xiaoshuai?" Li Ling couldn't understand this situation.

"Although it is said to be the male number one, it actually has very few roles. It is a bit similar to the kind of cameo. The role of Xiaogen I want to play may only be 10 minutes. The two-hour movie , the male number one who played for 10 minutes." Zhang Yuxuan shrugged and said.

"What's wrong with 10 minutes? As long as it's the male lead. Director Wang Xiaoshuai is actually a very capable director. His previous movie "Bike" won the Silver Bear Jury Prize at the Berlin Film Festival. The two protagonists in it also won the Best Newcomer Actor Award. You can participate in his movie, even if you are only the male number one in name, it will be of great help to your future path." Li Ling looked A little excited.

"I think so too." Zhang Yuxuan nodded.

"Wait, I'll call Sister Hua now and tell Sister Hua the news. If you can win this role, let me tell you, the drama you want to shoot is not too difficult." Li Bai said with a smile on his face. Said happily, took out her mobile phone, and immediately dialed Wang Jinghua's number.

After Wang Jinghua heard the news, her reaction was similar to that of Li Ling.

They were all happy that Zhang Yuxuan arrived, but at the same time couldn't help wondering how Zhang Yuxuan could act in Wang Xiaoshuai's movie.

"It was recommended by Gao Yuanyuan." Zhang Yuxuan explained.

Hearing this, Li Ling looked at Zhang Yuxuan and couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "You and Gao Yuanyuan—"

"There is nothing between me and Gao Yuanyuan." Zhang Yuxuan said quickly.

"I know, of course I understand your personality. But Gao Yuanyuan may not have no ideas."

"...No way, who made me so handsome, so you took advantage of being with me." Zhang Yuxuan said to Li Ling in a tone that you took advantage of it.

After Li Ling found out that she and Zhang Yuxuan had broken the film, Zhang Yuxuan spoke more and more casually: "Indeed, I didn't expect that I could still eat a broiler chicken."

"..." Zhang Yuxuan.

……

The shooting location of Qinghong is in Yunnan-Guizhou area, and it is still a relatively poor countryside.

In this kind of place, the road is difficult to walk.

In the car, Zhang Yuxuan was almost thrown up on the road.

However, when Zhang Yuxuan got off the car and arrived at the shooting location, he looked at the surrounding environment, but his expression didn't change much.

How should I put it, although this place looks a little poorer and a little behind.But in this day and age, such similar places and similar environments are actually not uncommon.Zhang Yuxuan's hometown in Shuicheng is also in the countryside, and the environment is actually not much different from here.

After Wang Xiaoshuai got out of the car, he took a look at Zhang Yuxuan, and seeing that there was no repulsive expression on Zhang Yuxuan's face, he was relieved a lot.

If Zhang Yuxuan came here, saw this kind of environment, looked disgusted, and then yelled that the filming would not be filmed, and he wanted to go back, then it would be disgusting.

After Zhang Yuxuan and the others got out of the car, many people surrounded them, their eyes were full of curiosity, and there was a bit of fear in their curiosity.

At the same time, there were quite a few children, looking at the crew's car without blinking, as if they wanted to step forward but didn't dare.

Wang Xiaoshuai led people and began to negotiate with these people.

It is said to be a negotiation, but Wang Xiaoshuai has already negotiated with the people here.

Film here, rent a house here, and at the same time invite some local people to play tricks, so that some people can get a certain salary.Not much, just 30 yuan a day.But for residents in such impoverished areas, [-] or [-] a day is considered a very good income.

Gao Yuanyuan's face was a little pale, obviously the journey was not very comfortable.

"Sister Yuanyuan, how are you? Your complexion is a little pale." Zhang Yuxuan asked Gao Yuanyuan's pale face.

"Oh, I didn't expect the road conditions here to be so bad. I got motion sickness. It's so uncomfortable." Gao Yuanyuan said with a sad face.

"Then find a place to rest. Where's your assistant? Have you gone to the director?"

"Yeah. I'm gone." Gao Yuanyuan nodded lazily.

Soon, Wang Xiaoshuai came back. Seeing Gao Yuanyuan like this, he asked someone to arrange a place for him to rest.

After that, Wang Xiaoshuai looked at Zhang Yuxuan's fairly normal expression: "Yuxuan, how do you feel? Are you feeling well?"

"No, it feels okay." Zhang Yuxuan shook his head and said.

"That's good, let's do it this way. After starting the machine, after two days, we will concentrate on filming your scenes, so that you can go back earlier." Wang Xiaoshuai still seemed worried about what might happen to Zhang Yuxuan, a big star, so he planned to Gather Zhang Yuxuan's scenes together, and finish filming all Zhang Yuxuan's scenes in a few days.

It's best for Zhang Yuxuan not to get emotional. Even if he is emotional, the filming will be over and it won't affect the crew in any way.

"Oh, thank you director." Although Zhang Yuxuan is not against the current environment, if he can finish filming his part earlier, Zhang Yuxuan is still very happy to accept the special care of director Wang Xiaoshuai.

After a night of rest, the next morning, Wang Xiaoshuai organized a simple power-on worship ceremony, which was very simple.A pig's head, an incense burner, a few sticks of incense, and the ceremony of worshiping the gods is complete.

Then the first day of shooting started.

Probably because he was worried that Zhang Yuxuan would not be able to find his status, so the scene on the first day had nothing to do with Zhang Yuxuan.

It may also be because Gao Yuanyuan's complexion was not very good yesterday, and his mental state was not good, so Gao Yuanyuan's role in the first day's scene was also not there.
