After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 280 The Four Beauties of Beijing, I Have a Grandfather

Li Mingyang left the study and came to the lobby on the first floor. Tan Songyun and Zhong Xiaoyu were wearing Manchu costumes and reviewing the etiquette they had learned today.

Although as supporting roles they don't have many parts, that's how young actors are, they have to learn everything.

And you have to perform well.

If you study well, you won’t get any preferential treatment.

But if you're lazy and slack, you'll be kicked out of the crew.

The same is true for Tian Pujun, the woman of Vanke founder and real estate tycoon Wang Shi.

I practiced very diligently on the set, just like any other actor.

If Wang Shi hadn't come to visit the set, no one would have known that she was Wang Shi's woman.

This woman has a good vision, she keeps staring at "Empresses in the Palace"! After changing the investor, she asked Wang Shi to come and give money to Li Mingyang.

Li Mingyang and Zheng Dalong both disliked people who brought money into the crew, but they couldn't offend Wang Shi. He was eager to give money, and it was difficult to refuse. They could only add back the role that was originally added for Tian Pujun and then deleted, and let her join the crew.

In the entertainment industry, the bigger the investment and the bigger the cast of a production, the more likely it is to be stuffed with people.

Smart directors usually add new characters, which may or may not be necessary, rather than giving away existing characters.

Tan Songyun came to Li Mingyang holding a handkerchief, waved his handkerchief, put his knees together, bowed slightly, and greeted him.

"Mingyang, do you think my movements just now were standard?"

"I don't understand this stuff."

As soon as Li Mingyang finished speaking, his cell phone rang. He took out his phone and saw that it was a call from Yuan Hong.

Yuan Hong wanted to talk to him about something, but it was not convenient to talk on the phone.

Li Mingyang had no choice but to drive to the hotel where Yuan Hong was staying.

At the restaurant door, Li Mingyang saw Yuan Hong.

"Mingyang, this way."

"What's going on? It's so mysterious."

Yuan Hong led Li Mingyang to a private room. When they opened the door, the smell of cigarettes, alcohol and food immediately filled the air.

The big round table was a mess, obviously someone had eaten there.

Yuan Hong first took out a new set of tableware from the sideboard, unpacked it, picked up the unsealed bottle of wine on the table, and poured a glass for Li Mingyang.

“You really save money.”

"It's more convenient to talk here. I'm having dinner with some classmates from the Shanghai Theatre Academy today. I have a very talented female classmate named Han."

"Sister Xue?"

"Well, when she was having dinner, she said that the higher-ups were planning to make a fuss about you and Long Liqi. They wanted to force them to speak out and make a big deal out of this. You'd better be careful recently." Yuan Hong whispered.

Li Mingyang rolled his eyes immediately, "I thought it was something else, it's just this shit."

“This matter is very sensitive.”

"He came to the mainland to make money, but he said one thing in public and another in private. He deserves to be punished... You have good news." Li Mingyang suddenly smiled.

Yuan Hong smiled, but was worried and speechless.

"Even if you are the director, you can't do this. As long as those people change their words, they can be forgiven... Then it will be your problem."

Oh too.

"Anyway, you should pay more attention recently."

Li Mingyang nodded, took a sip of wine, and asked in confusion: "Did she tell you alone or in front of everyone?"

"alone."

"Where is she?"

"Let's go to the movies. Here are two tickets." Yuan Hong took out two movie tickets from his pocket.

Li Mingyang took the movie ticket and took a look. Uh... an informant.

For this movie, both Tse Ting Fung and Jacky Cheung were nominated for Best Actor at the Hong Kong Film Awards, and Tse Ting Fung won the award in the end.

This Best Actor award seems to be pre-determined. Neither the God of Songs nor the Jacky Cheung was present at the event. His competitors donated money and he even said bluntly: 30 years ago, the Hong Kong film industry was handed over to me, and from now on it will be handed over to you, Ting Feng.

The year before, Jacky Cheung had just won the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards for his role in "Witness", and this time he was specifically playing a supporting role to Tse Ting Fung.

Zha Zha Hui's performance was even more outstanding, but he had just won the Best Actor award, and it seemed natural that the award was given to Xie Tingfeng this year. Everyone else's performance was not so outstanding.

However... Hong Kong filmmakers never dreamed that this man who won the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards would just run away and come to the mainland to work in the music, cooking, and variety show industries, making a lot of money, and not caring about the life and death of Hong Kong films at all.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Li Mingyang and Yuan Hong arrived at Hengdian Cinema to check their tickets and enter Hall 3.

There were not many people in the screening room. Sister Xue was sitting in the fifth row, with three other people around her.

When she saw Li Mingyang coming, Sister Xue was very enthusiastic and her mind was not on the movie at all.

Li Mingyang’s first reaction when he saw Sister Xue was, I have a grandfather.

The second reaction is that I have loved the wrong person for a lifetime.

The third reaction is, one is not enough, right? You want a threesome, right? Lan Xi.

This movie can be said to be the biggest highlight of Han Xue's film career... The rest of her movies and TV series seem to be cast from the same mold.

It’s not that she doesn’t work hard, it’s just that the Beijing circle doesn’t like her.

Including Jing Tian.

There are also Baibin, Ganwei...

Speaking of Bingxue Weitian, we have to mention the Warring States Period.

because……

The name is Bingxue Weitian.

It was first mentioned after the film critics’ screening of “Warring States”. After watching the film, the critics posted a sarcasm on Weibo: “Warring States should be renamed as Jing Tian.”

The results were quickly reprinted.

Afterwards, a reporter from a certain website joked on Weibo: "Jing Tian, ​​Bai Bin, and Han Li are three strange flowers in the Chinese film and television industry."

A joke caused a huge stir, and some people took it a step further, saying that with Gan Wei, who was also rumored to have a "background", these four young actresses could form the "Bingxue Weitian" group. Another saying was: "Bingxue Weitian, very rich!"

"Bingxue Weitian" has since spread in the circle. And not long after, the four beauties of Beijing were born.

What’s funny is that none of the four beauties in the capital are from Yanbei.

Da Baibing and Jing Tian are fellow villagers, both from Shaanxi.

Sister Xue is from Jiangsu.

Ganwei is Chongqing.

The four beauties of Beijing are praised to death by the Beijing circle.

The entertainment industry is so complicated and intricate that Li Mingyang is actually a little confused about it and can't figure it out.

And there is no doubt that the mountain eagle is one of the top ones.

Behind the scenes is the Minister of Justice, inside the ladder.

Li Mingyang and Sister Xue exchanged a few pleasantries, and Sister Xue couldn't wait to say, "Director Li, I heard that your name is a series, and there are two more. Is it true?"

"fake."

"Director Li is really a joker. I've seen the gambling agreement."

This... can she get it? No way!
"It's still early for the second movie. I'm going to shoot an online movie soon. I wonder if Sister Xue is interested?"

When Sister Xue heard about online movies, she frowned slightly, but she still smiled and said, "Do online movies need investment? I can invest a little."

"I can still afford a few million."

With so little investment, what to shoot...

"Well... let's talk about your second disaster romance movie. Are you planning to shoot Weathering With You or Lingya's Journey next?"

"Weathering With You."

When I heard the name, I thought it wasn’t a movie with a female lead and was a little disappointed.

She would rather film Lingya's Journey, as the name suggests a heroine.

"Actually, all three movies have female protagonists, but I want to find someone younger..."

"You're calling me old!"

"No, I want to find an 18-year-old for the next part. Your name was originally a high school student script, but they forced it to be changed to college."

It’s not that Sister Xue doesn’t have resources, it’s just that the resources are rather cruel. She doesn’t have to worry about filming TV series, she is tired of filming them, and she wants to make movies.

To this end, she specifically used her connections and learned from Zuoshandiao that Your Name is a series, and also saw a copy of the gambling agreement from Wang Changtian.

I want to take pictures. I really want to take pictures.

Li Mingyang's target group has always been very clear, that is, young audiences. She is only 27, which is the prime of her life. If she doesn't try hard now, she will have no chance when she is 30.

Sister Xue wants to get the leading female role, so she not only brings money into the crew, but also receives no pay. If the filming takes place in Shanghai and Jiangsu, she can overcome all obstacles.

Even though she was a high school student, she could still find a way to pass the review.

Do you have this ability?
Li Mingyang was nervous. The Film Censorship Committee was not decided by just one person...

Unless he is a big shot within the ladder.

very troublesome.

The reason why Jiang Wen’s Let the Bullets Fly was able to pass review was also due to this relationship.

Let the bullets fly, Jiang Wen flew happily.

However, he got into bad luck after that. Every movie was subject to a strict review with an unprecedented level of scrutiny, directly targeting everyone from top to bottom.

Every time a movie is approved, I have to ask for help...

"Sister Xue, I have a lot of kissing scenes in my movies, you don't mind, do you?"

"It's out of place..."

"Oh, by the way, Weathering With You is about rain, and there are a lot of wet scenes."

"It doesn't matter."

"As for the wet hug, I really like to film the male and female protagonists hugging... but your name doesn't have it, so I want to satisfy my own thoughts in Weathering With You."

Sister Xue was a little impatient and felt that Li Mingyang was playing tricks on her.

"If you don't want to do it, forget it." Sister Xue stood up and walked away with big strides. The people who came with her also left quietly. They were well-trained...silently.

Yuan Hong came over from the corner and sighed, "Why did you make her angry again?"

"You want to make my movie, but there's nothing to do."

"What?"

"If she could have entered the film industry, she would have done so long ago. The film industry is not as simple as you think."

Li Mingyang smiled, stood up, glanced at Zha Zha Hui on the screen, and left the screening room.

At this time, the screening in the other theater opposite just ended. The door was pushed open and a group of women walked out of the theater. One of the women with short hair was shocked when she saw Li Mingyang, then she trotted over and said, "Director Li, I didn't expect to see you here."

This voice is somewhat familiar.

The lighting in the corridor was a little dim. Li Mingyang took off his sunglasses and took a look. Uh, isn't this a silly girl?
"Oh, it's Sister Zhang. You guys are here to watch a movie too. What are you watching?"

"The Expendables. The sound of gunfire and explosions hurt my ears a little, but it was very exciting."

Yuan Hong walked out and saw his future wife Zhang Xinyi, and nodded calmly.

Zhang Xinyi smiled and raised her hand to say hello, with something in her eyes...

"Where are you going next?" Li Mingyang asked.

"I'm going to visit the night market. How about you, Director Li?"

"What's so interesting about the night market? How about going to the bar for a drink?" said Li Mingyang.

Zhang Xinyi blinked and smiled awkwardly, "I don't go to bars very often."

Don't go to the bar, just talk nonsense.

You're just a one night stand.
