Become Famous Another Day

“It’s your first day of filming today, how do you feel?”

In the evening, Lu Yanhe took a few people to Sister Jing's private kitchen for dinner, including Zhang Ruozhi, her mother, and her friend Liu Lingmeng.

In addition to a few of them, Chen Bige, Liu Bige, Xin Zixing, and Zhao Yuheng were also there.

 Zhang Ruozhi smiled shyly and said, "It feels...ok."

"You acted very well." Xin Zixing said to Zhang Ruozhi with a smile, "Before watching you act today, I was a little worried. You have never acted before, so I don't know how you will perform. I think Yan He It's very risky for him to find a high school student who is in his second year of high school to act, but after watching it today, I understand why Yan He chose you. "

 Zhang Ruozhi lowered his head shyly and whispered: "Thank you."

“However, according to our shooting speed, is it possible that we won’t be able to finish the filming in two weeks?” Xin Zixing asked this point directly, “Yan He, I didn’t expect that you would be holding us all back later.”

 She actually said this on purpose to make Zhang Ruozhi relax.

 Lu Yanhe said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. The first few days of shooting are used to get familiar with the characters and the shooting environment. The shooting speed will become faster and faster as everyone becomes more familiar with the film."

Zhao Yuheng said: "The scenes in the summer are all high school scenes, and there are not many scenes. When I was making the shooting plan, the two-week shooting time was actually extended. Even if it is overdue, it doesn't matter. We I have signed a contract with everyone on the film crew for forty days this summer, director, you can take your time filming.”

“Reliable.” Lu Yanhe nodded, “However, there should be no problem if we finish filming in two weeks.”

 Chen Bige is not at the filming location today.

 She and her assistant went hiking in the mountains outside Jiangzhi City.

She didn’t specifically go there. On the first day of filming, she could predict that it would be Lu Yanhe’s first time as a director and Zhang Ruozhi’s first time as an actor, and they would definitely be a little overwhelmed on set.

If she still goes, it will probably distract them even more.

 She was pleasantly surprised to hear everyone say that although today's shooting took longer than expected, the situation was pretty good.

"Yan He, I have to suspect that you are really protected by some kind of luck." Chen Bige said, "I thought that today is the first day of filming for you, and the studio will be in a hurry."

"I have invited so many big guys to help me, and all departments are running smoothly. How can I be in such a hurry?" Lu Yanhe said to Chen Bige, "Sister Bige, it turns out you don't trust me so much."

 Chen Bige: "That's right, I agreed to play the heroine for you even though I didn't trust you. I even broke my rules. Not long after the filming of "Rouge Button" was completed, I accepted your drama."

Lu Yanhe smiled, picked up the cup, and paid homage to Chen Bige.

What they drank tonight was local fruit wine, which was not high in alcohol and tasted sweet.

 The two men looked at each other and laughed.

-

Liu Lingmeng whispered in Zhang Ruozhi's ear: "Ruoruo, these celebrities are no different from our parents in private."

 Zhang Ruozhi whispered: "Yes."

Liu Lingmeng thought thoughtfully, "You have such a shy personality, but they don't dislike you."

"Ah?" Zhang Ruozhi glanced at his friend, "Why do they dislike me?"

Liu Lingmeng said: "Don't they all say that you might not be able to survive in the entertainment industry?"

 Zhang Ruozhi: “…”

Liu Lingmeng folded his hands on his chest and hummed softly, "However, people can change. You see, Lu Yanhe was more socially intimidated than you when he first debuted."

 Zhang Ruozhi: "Keep your voice down."

“They were chatting and didn’t pay attention to us.” Liu Lingmeng said while eating the food, “But I really didn’t expect that Director Liu Bige was so handsome.”

 Zhang Ruozhi: “Have you not seen Director Liu Bige’s photos online before?”

“I thought it was pornographic.” Liu Lingmeng said, “I thought at the time that this director, who is not an artist, went so far and made himself look so handsome.”

　　　Two people thought that no one was paying attention to what they were saying.

 But Xin Zixing heard everything.

She couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing.

 The two girls immediately looked towards her.

Xin Zixing immediately made a zipper gesture on his mouth.

-

 On the second day of filming, Lu Yanhe went to the dressing room at eight o'clock in the morning and changed into his school uniform.

The first scene to be filmed today is a follow-up to yesterday's filming, in which a few boys suddenly appeared from the door, heckled the two Aijingshu on duty, and then turned around and ran away.

 Lu Yanhe specially found a few boys from Zhang Ruozhi's class to play these roles.

 When we arrived at the scene, all departments were already in place.

 He went to talk to some boys about the play and asked them to rehearse it first.

 Zhang Ruozhi has also sat down in the classroom.

 Suddenly, he heard Liu Bige ask: "Where is Bao Wenliang?"

Lu Yanhe looked back.

Wu Zhou said to Liu Bige: "Brother Bao...has not come yet."

　　Liu Bige: “Why hasn’t he come yet?”

Wu Zhou looked like he was about to speak but hesitated.

 Liu Bige directly took out his mobile phone and made a call.

 But it seemed like no one answered the phone.

Lu Yanhe withdrew his gaze and continued talking to others.

 Since Liu Bige is in charge, he doesn’t need to interfere.

 However, when the scene was successfully filmed, Bao Wenliang had not yet appeared.

Wu Zhou shot the entire scene with one camera. There were no dual cameras, so he could only film Zhang Ruozhi's reaction first, and then film the scene with the boys at the door. The actors had to perform the scene several times.

Of course the actors didn't mind - they were all acting for the first time and were very excited.

Especially a few boys, who were obviously in the restless stage of adolescence and were excited about anything they did. This was filming a movie again - they never thought that they just ran into a cafe and how could they suddenly run into a movie.

It wasn’t until almost noon that Bao Wenliang came over in a hurry.

 Liu Bige's face darkened immediately and he asked, "What's the matter with you?"

 Bao Wenliang's face was full of apologies, "Sorry, Director Bigo, I felt a little uncomfortable this morning and went to the hospital."

 Liu Bige's eyes passed over Bao Wenliang's hair, which was obviously just getting out of bed.

　　Bao Wenliang also realized something, raised his hand to smooth his hair, chuckled, and said: "I was so anxious to go out this morning that I forgot to comb my hair. I also wanted to finish watching it early and return to the set early."

 Liu Bige: “Did you know there was filming this morning?”

 “I know… I know.” Bao Wenliang nodded.

"Since we know there is filming this morning, even if you feel uncomfortable, can't you ask for leave in advance for the crew?" Liu Bige said, "Don't you understand these rules?" Liu Bige said this in front of everyone. What he said above did not leave any sympathy for Bao Wenliang at all.

Bao Wenliang wanted to explain a few more words to himself, but after seeing Liu Bige's stern expression, he licked his lips twice and finally did not speak, honestly admitting his mistake.

-

 At noon, everyone went to the school cafeteria to eat together.

 The crew directly signed a contract agreement with the school canteen, asking them to provide the crew with three meals a day.

 This is also convenient.

Hitting a local chef to help cook for dozens of people in the crew can earn more than usual, and it is not as hard as cooking for thousands of students. The chef is also happy to take on such a job.

Xin Zixing is in charge of the crew’s logistics, and all conditions are in place. Generally speaking, the person in charge of logistics in a production crew must be the most trusted person. Because there is the most trouble here, and the most oil and water can be fished out. How to do it really depends on the person.

 For Lu Yanhe, Xin Zixing is really the only one around him who can do this. Only she can be trusted and experienced, and she will not make mistakes.

Xin Zixing was just as Lu Yanhe expected, with food, clothing, housing and transportation, everything was in place without any mistakes.

 Eating in the cafeteria is a buffet style, where everyone takes a plate and prepares their own food.

 Lu Yanhe and Zhang Ruozhi worked separately and had only one share. It's not to eat better and highlight their importance as protagonists, but Lu Yanhe requires that they must have less oil and less salt, and the food selection must also control the calories so that both of them can maintain their best health. state.

 One of the most important professional ethics for actors on the set is to maintain themselves in good condition and be available at any time.

 The lens cannot deceive people.

 If your eyes are a little tired, the lens will magnify them infinitely.

“Old Bao, you were scolded by Liu Bige today.” The people who drank together last night sat at the same table, and Bao Wenliang was laughed at by the people at the same table.

 Bao Wenliang's table was far away from Lu Yanhe's table, so nothing they said could be transmitted over there.

However, he still glanced in the direction of Liu Bigo with taboo, and then he sighed at the person who just laughed at him and said, "If you hadn't pumped me so hard yesterday, I wouldn't be unable to get up today."

"You can pull him down. Yesterday it was clear that you insisted on drinking, but we couldn't hold you back."

 Bao Wenliang: “Stop talking nonsense.”

“Liu Bige is too much. You are also the number one photographer for our drama. I don’t show any mercy to you. I feel chilled when I see you.”

Bao Wenliang waved his hand and said, "Liu Bige is speaking for me."

 “You are so funny. I scolded you until you were bloody, and I still helped you talk.”

"He scolded me, and it's hard for others to say anything. See what Lu Yanhe said to me?" Bao Wenliang looked confident, "You really don't understand."

"You were originally invited by Lu Yanhe to help. How dare he scold you because of such a trivial matter? Lao Bao, if he really scolds you, can you bear it?"

“Damn it, I’m obviously late, otherwise why would I have to fight back? Do you want to trick me into a trap?” Bao Wenliang scolded with a smile.

"Didn't you say that yourself last night? Not much money, but a lot of shit." Others laughed, "What do you think of the film "Love Letter"? Can it be done?"

 “It’s just a pretentious love story, it can become a fart.” Someone laughed.

“That is to say, if Lu Yanhe can film this scene, if you change the script to someone else, who will come?”

“Indeed, it’s not a literary film, but when I read the lines in the script, they were so pretentious.”

“Perhaps those of us in our forties have become obsolete.”

“Anyway, we just get paid to work. You don’t care whether it succeeds or not. It doesn’t have much to do with us, and it doesn’t affect us getting paid if it fails.”

  “That’s the truth.”

 …

Wu Zhou, who was sitting at the next table, heard these words and ate in silence.

 In this industry, there are really many such "old fritters".

 Not everyone working in the entertainment industry is an idealist and hopes to make a good film.

  It is not like what is described in many movies, TV series and novels, everyone can be motivated.

 The reality is that only a very small number of people work under the drive of "making a good show", while the vast majority of people, just like people in other industries, just do this work with a part-time mentality. Even if you can fish, you can fish—

 People like Bao Wenliang are like the older middle-level people in the company. They have some qualifications and some capital, so they have a somewhat high self-esteem. If you say he can't do it, he has his own abilities. It's impossible to say how capable he is. At the age of over 40, he is already a veteran. At this time, he is still doing front-line photography work. Being an ordinary photographer is enough to explain a lot of problems.

Wu Zhou looked down upon such an approach, but Bao Wenliang had more seniority and better technology than him. In the photography industry, he is just a rookie who has only been in the industry for a few years, while Bao Wenliang is already an experienced person. Things like technology are useless if you talk about the heart. The spirit of Foolish Old Man who moved mountains is worthy of praise and praise, but it is not as good as an emotionless bomb.

Wu Zhou himself attached great importance to the filming of this drama.

 The movie "Love Letter" will definitely be a movie that attracts attention in the industry.

For an inexperienced photographer like him, this time as the second-ranked member of the photography crew, he participated in a movie written, directed and starred by Lu Yanhe and starring Chen Bige. It was a very colorful addition to his resume. Pen.

Wu Zhou also knew that this was an opportunity specially given to him by Liu Bige. During the filming of "Late Spring", he was only a camera assistant and was not even the crew's signed photographer. He only appeared as a member of the camera crew at the end of the film. He cherished this opportunity.

-

 After getting familiar with each other on the set for a few days, Lu Yanhe gradually adapted to this rhythm.

 He was concentrating on the crew's work and didn't care about anything else. There is no need to distract him from school studies, and there is no other work to involve his mind. Although tired, I am full of energy.

 Lu Yanhe then realized that what he had done before might really be a bit too complicated. Taking care of everything, a person has to be divided into several parts to do things, and a brain has to cut out different areas to deal with different things.

 Now, being able to concentrate on just one thing made him feel relaxed and happy.

When Chen Ziyan brought Tu Song and Wen Minglan to visit the class, she clearly felt that Lu Yanhe's state was somewhat different—very tired, but very energetic.

This seemingly contradictory set of words appears in Lu Yanhe, but it is not inconsistent at all.

Tu Song asked: "Sister Zi Yan, is there really no theme song or interlude for me to sing in this movie?"

 Chen Ziyan glanced at him helplessly, "How many times have I told you? Of course I will recommend you if there is a suitable opportunity, but if there is no suitable opportunity, forceful melons will not be sweet."

　　Tu Song: "I don't want to force it, but there must be a lot of people looking for Lu Yanhe. I'm afraid that others will get there first."

Chen Ziyan: "Are you telling me that you are afraid of being beaten to the punch by others? Have you forgotten that in addition to being your agent, I am also Lu Yanhe's agent?"

　　Tu Song: "Ah...I forgot."

Chen Ziyan: "Don't say this in front of Lu Yanhe. He is already tired enough from making movies now. Don't add to his worries."

 “Why did it increase my worries when I went to sing for him?” Tu Song was dissatisfied, “Sister Ziyan, you are so partial.”

"You know something about it." Chen Ziyan glanced at him sideways, "If Lu Yanhe insists on asking you for a MV shooting opportunity when you are making an album, will it bother you?"

Tu Song was shocked, "If Lu Yanhe is willing to come and shoot the MV for me, why should I bother? I have something wrong with me and it bothers me."

Chen Ziyan: "...What if it was Lu Yanhe before his senior year in high school?"

Tu Song was stunned.

 His expression changed.

"I…"
