Chinese entertainment started with male models

Chapter 212 The biggest crisis since I started my career!

The timing of Guo Fan's arrival was a bit unfortunate.

Because the crew of "Time Raiders" is going to shoot a relatively important scene today.

So after Bai Liang met him briefly, he could only say sorry and let Yan Zi entertain him and chat with him.

"Who's looking for you?"

At this moment, Jing Tian seemed to have forgotten to be on guard against Bai Liang again. She tied her hair into a casual bun. Some of her fine hair looked like fluff, shining in the sunlight.

It looks kind of furry and silly.

She even stood on tiptoe to look in the direction of Guo Fan, but after seeing clearly, she was confused. She didn't know him.
This little expression is really rich!
Bai Liang was of course telling the truth: "A film director should come to me to discuss the play."

"Oh~"

Jing Tian nodded, responded, and didn't say anything else.

But after spending these days together, Bai Liang knew her very well. "How about I take you with me later?"

"It's not appropriate~"

"We're just chatting. His movie is no secret."

"Ok!"

After some back and forth, pulling and tugging, Jing Tian was satisfied.

But she always felt that it was almost time to be "on guard", so she took two steps back swiftly.

Bai Liang was too lazy to pay attention to her. This young lady always liked to entertain herself like this.

"I'm going to change my clothes first~"

Having just finished filming a scene of Lu Ming, Bai Liang is now going to "transform".

However, this does reveal the strange operation of the novice director. Generally, if two completely different roles are played by the same person, the shooting arrangements will not be so concentrated.

If an actor doesn't perform well, it's easy to be out of character.

After following so many film crews, Bai Liang knew all about this.

Not only do they play two roles, sometimes, when filming more intense emotional scenes for the same character, no other scenes will be arranged to offset the scenes.

For example, in one scene you are happy like a fool, but in the next scene you need to cry like a bereaved parent.

Of course, it's not completely impossible to do so.

It's just a test of the actors' level.

Bai Liang could only think that Director Su Lun trusted him too much, so he arranged the shooting plan in this way.

The character of Lu Shiyi is set as "Lu Ming" in the confusion of time and space. After choosing the "wrong" path, the future Lu Ming changed his name to Lu Shiyi.

When he was young, he accepted hush money from the company to conceal a plot to frame the general manager, and became an entrepreneur who rose to the pinnacle of his life.

At first Bai Liang thought the name was just a homonym, but then he thought, why does it seem to refer to an entrepreneur with the same name?

It's a bit similar to the character Xiao Ma in "Sisters Who Make Waves".

However, Xiao Ma mainly plays with contrast and humor, and the character is not made to be that negative.

But the character Lu Shiyi did not start out cleanly.
If someone wants to sue him at that time, Bai Liang feels that he can just watch the fun.

It has nothing to do with him anyway. The character was created by Xu Zheng and Su Lun, and he acted so handsomely. It can't be considered a smear, right?

Limited skin—The gentlemanly villain boss reappears.

It looks exactly like what Bai Liang wore at the Bulgari dinner.

I don't know if the crew's styling designer copied it directly.
When Bai Liang changed his look and walked out, Jing Tian was stunned for several seconds.

It’s not that she was stunned by his handsomeness, that was only a small reason. The main reason was that there was such a sense of strangeness that even Bai Liang’s smile at her made Jing Tian feel like she had never seen it before.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem to be much different from before.

"how did you do that?"

If you don’t understand, just ask. However, this time, Jing Tian put his “defense” status on full alert from the start.

He just stood there asking from several steps away, with no intention of getting closer.

"It's hard to describe, it's the pace of my walking and the way I look at people. I also control the pace of my speech a little bit."

I heard it!

Bai Liang didn't specifically say to lower his voice, but the whole domineering boss's bubbling voice came out.

The same voice, but with a sense of story and distance.

A feeling of a mature man comes over me.

At first glance, he seems to be a gentleman who restrains himself and returns to propriety. But upon closer inspection, I always feel that he seems to be suppressing something.

At this moment, acting suddenly felt concrete to Jing Tian.

It's so obvious! It's really visible to the naked eye.

Then she took another step back and muttered something like "I still like it better"

I didn't hear it clearly because the other party ran away again.

However, he couldn't run far this time and was quickly "caught" by the crew to act again.

As soon as I came back, I saw Bai Liang taking off his glasses, with a silly and cute look on his face.

"Ah! That's much better." Jing Tian said with satisfaction.

Then she asked very cleverly: "Which one is your true performance?"

Bai Liang rolled his eyes at her lazily, which only made Jing Tian pull the chair closer.

Capybara is still cute even when rolling his eyes!

And that unfathomable boss, even with a smile on his face, makes people feel that he is difficult to approach.

Fortunately, it's just acting~
It should just be acting, right?
Jing Tian thought.

Bai Liang: Well, not entirely.

Both forms have a touch of natural performance.

But the latter state has not appeared in him for a long time. I don't eat beef~
When filming, he was actually more accustomed to maintaining his condition before filming began, but in view of Miss Jing Tian's personal preference, Bai Liang decided to give in to her.

The two people on the other side were also "making do" with each other.

After Yan Zi found out that Guo Fan was a film director, she immediately became highly alert!
alarm!alarm!
Where did this director come from?
Because regarding the "The Wandering Earth" project, Sun Qiang just called Bai Liang, so Yan Zi didn't know about it.

She thought that her brother Xiaobai had asked her to keep the later period of time in the schedule so that he could take a break or use it to arrange some variety shows or advertising announcements.

After all, Bai Liang has already joined quite a few groups this year, and it’s too tiring to always keep his schedule so full.

Now, another weird guy shows up!
She now understands the nature of these directors in the film industry too well. They all like to talk about art, but their purpose is to get something for nothing.

Oh no, nothing good.

Among the several film directors that my brother Xiaobai has contacted so far, only Han Han is slightly reliable.

Although Yan Zi used some tricks, at least the other party really gave her money!
The others were a bit outrageous. Wu Jing used "drinking heavily" to "deal with" his own brother Xiaobai.

Can this promise made at the dinner table be reliable?
Xu Zheng didn't even act, he looked like a sophisticated and selfish businessman with great eloquence.

Fortunately, Yan Zi is really good at dealing with people like him. She delivered a precise attack, causing him to bleed heavily.

As for the person in front of me
Guo Fan didn't know when he took out a pair of glasses and put them on, as if he wanted to see more clearly how Bai Liang acted.

Of course, the movie "Time Raiders" is completely different from the movie he wants to make, and it doesn't really have much reference value.

But you can always take a look at Bai Liang's abilities~
To be honest, Guo Fan doesn't want him to be too powerful. Instead, he hopes that he can be a little bit worse. Those who understand will know the reason.

Yan Zi increasingly felt that although this man did not look too materialistic, he seemed much more difficult to deal with than Xu Zheng.

After exchanging names and greeting each other, she quickly learned about Guo Fan's background.

The director of the movie "You Are the One Sitting Next to Me".

Hmm. Now it feels more reliable.

Although this movie is not highly reviewed and is certainly not a classic, it is indeed a very successful commercial film with a high return rate.

At least it proves that Guo Fan is not the kind of guy who likes to talk about literature and art.

"Director Guo, what kind of movie did you come here to discuss with our Bai Liang? Your new work?"

"Yes, it's a science fiction movie, adapted from Liu Cixin's work, called The Wandering Earth."

swallow:???
The other party's reliable image was instantly shattered just because of the words "science fiction movie".

Tell a joke, Chinese science fiction movie
If she wasn't on the set at that moment, and the other person had come to visit her specially, Yan Zi really wanted to get up and leave.

If the other party contacts her first, she will reject them on the spot and put them in the same category as those "junk projects" in her eyes.

Guo Fan noticed the change in Yan Zi's eyes, but he was not surprised.

It's normal~
Many people had this initial reaction when they heard him say this.

However, Guo Fan temporarily turned his attention away from Bai Liang and prepared to have a good chat with Yan Zi first.

After all, this is Bai Liang's agent. In his understanding, persuading an artist's agent is sometimes as important as persuading the artist himself.

After all, he didn't know who had the final say between Bai Liang and Yan Zi.
Come on, girl, look at my sincere face and let’s talk about our dreams!
Yan Zi encountered the biggest crisis in her career! The other party did not talk about friendship, did not bring up the friendship between Sun Qiang and Bai Liang, did not talk about interests, did not say what would happen if the movie was successful, and did not even talk about success or failure.
He told Yan Zi bluntly that although he was confident, he didn't know how the market would respond.

But the light of idealism is so dazzling!
Guo Fan spoke in a powerful but eloquent voice, and he told Yan Zi that all of this was a brand new attempt.

What we need to do is to engrave our names in the history of Chinese cinema.

Leave your own traces in the interwoven coordinate system and the source and context of historical development.

Even if they fail, it will be a brilliant achievement, allowing those who come after them to stand on their shoulders and move forward.

To be honest, Yan Zi felt that this guy didn't want to make a movie, he wanted to start a revolution.
Guo Fan: Yes, this is certainly a revolution in the film industry!

Regardless of the fame and fortune of the film and television industry, each of us is a crucial screw in this industrial evolution
So girl, do you want to join us?

Yan Zi was speechless, and she didn't dare to speak.

She was afraid that she would agree in a fit of anger.

Damn it, this was the worst loss she had ever had. She didn't even dare to ask the other party how much they were willing to pay her.

As if asking such a question would defile something.

At this moment, she finally understood what kind of experience those girls had when facing their own Brother Xiaobai.

Cannot be refused, cannot be avoided, cannot be resisted.
"How was your conversation?"

A gentle sound, like a drowning person being pulled out of the water by a strong arm and able to breathe in big gulps of fresh air.

Originally, Yan Zi thought that she was a shield standing in front of her brother Xiaobai.

But now it seems that she is still too young.

Give up the stage and let the succubus deal with the succubus.

Guo Fan and Bai Liang looked at each other.

The two of them smiled at the same time, as if they were exactly the same.

"Hello, let me formally introduce myself. I am the director, Guo Fan, and I am here to invite you on behalf of the crew of The Wandering Earth. I hope you can play the leading male role."

Guo Fan appeared somewhat casually, but at this moment he seemed a little more serious.

He has already "dealt with" the Swallow, and now it's time to deal with the real person!

However, when he looked at Bai Liang, he suddenly didn't know where to start with the many things he had thought of.

Logically speaking, young people like Bai Liang’s age should be easy to fool.

Especially since the other party has already been "successful" now, at least he has achieved very good results in the field of top flow.

Guo Fan thought that he had some understanding of people.

In his opinion, people who have achieved certain achievements are actually much easier to "convince" than those who are just average or just starting out.

Because human desires are endless.

Just like Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, after achieving certain life values, people tend to pursue new values.

Actors who are not doing well may still be struggling for food and clothing and housing. If you instill too high values ​​in them, they will not listen. It is better to give them 100,000 yuan directly.

As for someone like Bai Liang, Guo Fan actually couldn't figure out what he was thinking at first.

Because he is young, he may be passionate, but because he is young, there are still many other things in the film and television industry worth pursuing.

Such as awards, more achievements and honors, etc.

But some of the other party's actions, such as the righteousness that Wu Jing had been helping to promote, made Guo Fan think that it should be the former.

A passionate, gullible and righteous young man.

This was his previous definition of Bai Liang.

At this moment, overthrow everything!

Something is wrong. Something is extremely fucking wrong!

From the other person's eyes, Guo Fan only felt a sense of calmness and a little curiosity.

He took a deep breath and decided not to use any tricks to fool people. Just put your heart out!

As for the more curious Miss Jing Tian standing next to him, sorry, Guo Fan was too focused and didn't notice her.

But she doesn't mind~
He sat down obediently aside, holding the script, and looked at the two of them with his big eyes.

Jing Tian felt that the current atmosphere was a little strange, but he couldn't put his finger on it.

And her instinct drove her to stay there firmly, as if she was going to witness something.

The opening remarks were similar to the ones used to "fool" Yan Zi, but Guo Fan used fewer modifiers and was more inclined to speak from the heart.

Unfortunately, Bai Liang's expression was always smiling, but he didn't show much emotion.

On the contrary, Jing Tian, ​​who was standing next to him, felt his blood boiling after hearing this!

Wow! He is really doing something amazing!

Unable to hold back, Jing Tian even asked if the movie was still lacking a leading actress.
Guo Fan: Thank you, I appreciate your kindness. Our heroine is a minor.
And even if there is a suitable role, he doesn't dare to use Jing Tian. The debuff in "The Wandering Earth" is already that bad.

He is an idealist, but he is not the kind of idealist who only shouts slogans. In the end, he still has to put it into practice.

Guo Fan didn't even dare to touch Da Tiantian, who had a "notorious reputation" in the film industry.

Otherwise, by the time the movie is actually made and not even released, it will be criticized by a bunch of people as a bad movie.

Of course, the prerequisite for achieving this is to make the movie.

Guo Fan felt that as long as he could win over Bai Liang, his security would be much greater.

Jing Tian: Emmmmm okay~
“We are not just shouting slogans, nor are we trying to bluff people by using the name of science fiction.”

After the mental "attack", Guo Fan took out various materials about the movie Down to Earth.

This proves that they are serious about making science fiction movies!

Bai Liang did not perfunctorily respond and carefully looked at the various materials brought by the other party.

There is not even the most basic script here, only various drawings and data.
Well, there is no problem. This is not a regular movie invitation.

Guo Fan's preparations were indeed comprehensive, and he put his imagined science fiction on paper.

After Bai Liang finished reading the information, Guo Fan felt an itch in his throat and seemed to want to say something.

But suddenly I felt like I couldn't say anything.

Looking at Bai Liang who was still calm, he had the same feeling as Yan Zi before: Damn it!
Young man, please give me some reaction!
If that damn failed art student was giving a speech in a pub and the audience were all people like you, he would have to go back and repeat his studies in shame.

"Okay." Bai Liang said casually.

"I still have some here? What did you say?"

"I agree, but I don't have much time left for the crew."

Guo Fan was a little confused.

Agree now? Why did he have a strange feeling that the other party would agree even if he didn't say so much?

"Schedule is not a problem! I've calculated it, and it's definitely enough!" Guo Fan said as he sobered up.

Then he immediately showed an embarrassed expression of being short of money, "Well, the production budget of our movie is quite tight."

No matter how you talk about it in the beginning, you still have to come to the reality in the end.

Film pay!

At this time, Bai Liang looked at Yan Zi. Although his agent was present, he still respected Yan Zi's work very much.

Yan Zi sighed, but did not try to force Guo Fan to do the same as before. After all, she had already knelt before Bai Liang came.

"Our Xiaobai brother will take his cut, but it has to be a little higher than the market price. Just consider it as supporting Chinese science fiction films. You must make good films, Director Guo."

"no problem!"

Guo Fan, with a big smile on his face, looked at Bai Liang again and found that the other party was looking at him with interest.

"Uh, is there any other condition?"

Bai Liang smiled and shook his head, "I'm just a little curious."

"What are you curious about?"

"When you finish this movie and appear in front of everyone again, will it be out of tune with the current film industry? I'm afraid they will regard you as a jackal."

These words almost made Guo Fan's blood rush to his brain.

No buddy, you trust me so much?!
After calming down for a while, Guo Fan looked at Bai Liang with a different look and smiled, "Then let them be~"

How can those who are obsessed with self-enjoyment understand those who embrace their ideals and run towards the future with high spirits?

However, Guo Fan didn’t know which type Bai Liang was.

He seems to be doing well in the world of fame and fortune.
But just one sentence can tickle Guo Fan's heart. In comparison, this kid is even more weird, right?

This strange sense of contradiction gave Guo Fan a sense of illusion.

This success is not so much that Bai Liang embraced the new "world", but rather that the new world actively embraced him.

He just stood there, motionless.
