"Everyone, good morning. Today is the seventh day of the first lunar month on February 17, 2022. We are here to hold the opening ceremony of the online drama "Folding Paper"."
The microphone amplifies Pei Shaoze's voice. In the quiet venue, only his voice rang clearly in his ears—
""Folding Paper" is a campus-themed web drama invested and produced by Tianxuan Group and I personally act as the producer. The original novel is very popular on the Internet. It tells about several teenagers who grew up together in high school. The journey of my heart…”
"This investment in "Folding Paper" is a test for Tianxuan Group to enter the online drama market. We are honored to invite director Liu Xueyi, screenwriter Xu Moran and the original author Lemongrass to join the crew. During the filming process, we I will try my best to strive for perfection, refuse shoddy production, and strive to shoot a high-quality online drama, presenting the most real and best student times in front of everyone... ”
Pei Shaoze's speech was like a cloud of water, without the slightest stutter.
The voice of the adult Alpha is low and pleasant, and the speech is crisp and neat, giving people a particularly good look and feel. Unlike many leaders who read a bunch of fake lines in front of the manuscript, Pei Shaoze did not have the speech in his hand. Situation, hardly a word of nonsense.
Pei Shaoyan stood under the stage, his eyes dull.
- Is this man really his brother
That brother who doesn't do his job every day, knows how to ask a few buddies to go on vacation, go racing, drink and go clubbing
Since when did eldest brother become so stable? In the face of so many media reporters, without stage fright, how can you speak fluently for 5 minutes without a speech
The shock of Pei Shaoyan in the audience is indescribable. In the past, when he was poor in studies, he would comfort himself and say, "What are you afraid of, my eldest brother is worse than me?" When he was fooling around with those friends at school, he would also think, didn't eldest brother come here like this? It doesn't matter if his grades are close, anyway, the Pei family has the bottom line. The sky fell, and there was a brother on it.
But today, looking at Pei Shaoze who was calm and talkative on stage, Pei Shaoyan suddenly felt that he was really bad in comparison. Instead, stand on the stage and say "I wish the crew a smooth start" at most, and nothing else.
Pei Shaoze was completely reborn, and he was no longer a playboy who would get headaches when his father mentioned it.
Pei Shaoyan frowned in a complicated mood, his mind was in a mess.
"Finally, I wish the filming of the online drama "Folding Paper" all the best, and I wish all the guests present a prosperous new year, thank you!"
Pei Shaoze simply ended his speech and handed the microphone back to the host.
There was thunderous applause from the audience.
Especially those experienced media reporters, everyone has attended so many opening ceremonies and heard so many speeches by the leaders of the producers and producers. I have to say that President Pei's speech today is neat, not sloppy, and will also Several important points are clearly stated. With such a demeanor at such a young age, Tianxuan's new CEO is indeed impressive.
Offstage, Cheng Xia applauded very vigorously!
He felt that Pei was always the best boss he had ever seen. Standing on the stage, he could instantly stabilize the audience, and when he spoke, he was personable. Cheng Xia was even a little proud - to be able to sign in Tianxuan, to meet such a good boss , I am very lucky.
Pei Shaoze stepped off the rostrum and sat in the vacant seat next to Cheng Xia.
Cheng Xia glanced at him and said hello with a smile: "President Pei."
Pei Shaoze leaned over and asked in a low voice, "What does the manuscript I wrote last night sounded like? Are there any omissions?"
Cheng Xia gave a thumbs up from the audience: "No, it's a very good speech."
Pei Shaoze said "um" and set his eyes on the rostrum.
Next was the director's speech and the author's speech. The opening ceremony was carried out in an orderly manner. After the round of speeches was over, Director Liu took the initiative to introduce the important roles of the play. He made an inviting gesture and said, "Next, There is a new actor, Cheng Xia, who will play our protagonist Qin Nian!"
Pei Shaoze looked at Cheng Xia encouragingly: "Go."
Cheng Xia stood up, walked to the rostrum from the side, came to Director Liu's left, and bowed politely to the audience.
"There is a young actor who will play the protagonist Lu Fengyang - Shen Kai!"
Shen Kai walked over and stood on the director's right hand. The two met for the first time today and were not familiar with each other. They stood on both sides of the director to avoid embarrassment.
Shen Kai is 188cm tall and Cheng Xia is 178cm tall. The height difference and appearance seem to match each other, but because the two did not have any interaction, the reporters in the audience had to take some frontal photos of them as material for the manuscript.
Then, important supporting roles such as sister and Faxiao also came to the stage in turn.
The host said excitedly: "President Pei, Director Liu, Teacher Lemongrass, Teacher Xu and several leading actors are invited to reveal the scene together!"
Pei Shaoze was invited to the stage again. He glanced at the scene, walked over and stood beside Director Liu, who happened to be standing side by side with Cheng Xia. Everyone's hands stretched out at the same time and grabbed the red cloth covering the camera.
With so many people standing together, it was a little crowded. Pei Shaoze's hand wanted to grab the red cloth, but he inadvertently grabbed Cheng Xia's finger. She shrank, her ears were a little red. Pei Shaoze sensed something was wrong, and immediately released his hand politely and moved to the side.
He whispered, "Sorry."
Cheng Xia knew that he was unintentional, after all, so many people were about to squeeze. But the suddenly accelerated heartbeat made Cheng Xia dare not look into President Pei's eyes, and only whispered, "It's okay."
Beside, Liu Xueyi shouted excitedly: "Three, two, one"!
Cheng Xia's heart was beating like a drum, and his mind was buzzing. The people around opened the red cloth at the same time, and Cheng Xia quickly retracted his hand, pretending that nothing happened, standing next to President Pei and took a group photo with everyone with a bright smile.
There was thunderous applause, and the opening ceremony officially ended here.
If it was a real opening ceremony, the crew would still have to offer incense. Pei Shaoze checked the information a few days ago and found that the ABO World crew did not have the part of "burning incense and worshipping Buddha" at the start of the show, so he went into the country and removed this part.
As for the interviews that were supposed to be there, Pei Shaoze asked the propaganda department to greet the media in advance. The crew had to catch up with the schedule in the afternoon. Each actor had only 10 minutes of interview time, and asked the media reporters to be gentle with the newcomers.
The media invited today are all the media who have a long-term cooperative relationship with Tianxuan, so they will naturally give Tianxuan this face.
The interviews after the start-up ended, the reporters were really gentle.
Cheng Xia was very nervous when facing so many reporters for the first time. However, when he thought about the calmness and calmness of President Pei on stage just now, he suddenly had confidence - the producer was so stable, he was the starring role, he couldn't Shame on the crew and President Pei!
Cheng Xia took a deep breath and quickly adjusted her mentality.
The reporter asked: "Do you have confidence in your acting skills for the first time in an online drama?"
Cheng Xia said calmly: "I really don't have much acting experience, but I believe that acting can be tempered. I like Qin Nian very much, and I also like the novel "Folding Paper" very much. I will devote my whole heart to the script. , interpreting Qin Nian's life well..."
The reporter said, "How do you understand the role of Qin Nian?"
Cheng Xia expressed his thoughts based on the original work he had read. When he answered questions, he was serious and sincere in his eyes, and he could not see perfunctory at all. The reporters had a good first impression of him, so they did not embarrass him.
After Cheng Xia answered the question, he was taken to lunch by the agent.
Lunch was the fast food that Pei Shaoze asked Zhang Fan to order in advance, and he ordered the expensive lunch box. He wanted everyone to eat better for the first meal. When the staff saw such a sumptuous bento, they were moved and said: "This treatment is also very good!"
Everyone was well fed and full of energy.
The studio began to get busy. Liu Xueyi directed the lighting, photography and other preparations. In the afternoon, the makeup photos were to be released. Cheng Xia, Shen Kai, Zhou Jiawen and other actors were called by the assistant director to the dressing room after lunch.
The so-called dressing room is actually a temporary renovation of the school classroom.
It was a little Beta girl who put on Cheng Xia's makeup. She found that Cheng Xia's skin was very good and she was handsome, so she tried to use fresh and natural makeup, no heavy makeup, eye shadow, lipstick, etc. were all light colors. After painting, she felt that the effect was still good. good.
Pei Shaoze, the sponsor of the school uniform, found the one who filmed the MV for Chen Yijun. Today, he has sent several sets of clothes according to the sizes of the cast members. With dark blue as the base color and white embellishments, Cheng Xia had no sense of disobedience after changing into her school uniform, just like a teenager walking out of a high school campus.
The makeup artist said excitedly, "Cheng Xia, I've seen your MV, it's very handsome, come on!"
Cheng Xia smiled at her: "Thank you, I will."
At two o'clock in the afternoon, several leading actors who had done their modeling walked into the studio one by one, posing in various poses according to the photographer's requirements. What Cheng Xia didn't expect was that President Pei was actually there.
He thought that Mr. Pei, a boss who took care of everything every day, would leave after attending the opening ceremony.
Cheng Xia noticed that there was a young man beside President Pei. The young man was handsome with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was over 1.8 meters tall, and the expression on his face seemed a little tangled. President Pei's attitude towards him was neither gentle nor severe, and he only ordered him to pour water.
The boy turned around and poured a glass of water over, his eyes were a little weird.
Pei Shaoze ignored him, looked up at Cheng Xia under his glasses, and said to the photographer: "Take a few more frontal photos, the colleagues in the propaganda department are still waiting, and they are going to publish the manuscript in the afternoon, so I'm in a hurry, it's hard for you. "
The photographer smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Pei, I will make Cheng Xia very handsome!"
Pei Shaoze nodded and looked at Cheng Xia.
Being watched by President Pei's deep eyes, Cheng Xia felt nervous for no reason. His mind was a little confused, and he couldn't help remembering the scene when his fingers were gently held by a man when he lifted the lens cloth just now...
The photographer shouted: "Cheng Xia's smile is bigger, showing his teeth, it's good!" "Sitting on a chair with a slightly lower chin, it's great!" "Come on, change your movements and turn your face sideways."
The photographer suddenly stopped helplessly: "Cheng Xia, look at my camera, don't look at President Pei, I am the photographer!"
Cheng Xia: "..."
Pei Shaoze: "..."
The photographer's unintentional joke made Cheng Xia's ears turn red instantly. He didn't know why his eyes drifted to Mr. Pei's side. It might be because Mr. Pei was sitting next to the photographer and had a strong sense of presence.
Pei Shaoze found that Cheng Xia was a little nervous, so he got up and said, "You guys shoot first, I'll go see if there is any problem with Director Liu."
The man got up and left, Cheng Xia breathed a sigh of relief, and then threw himself into the shooting.
Outside the door, Pei Shaoyan came over and asked softly in his brother's ear, "That person in the room is called Cheng Xia, right? I read the information about the lead actor, he is an Omega? Why do I feel familiar? Where have you seen it?"
Pei Shaoze frowned: "I asked you to learn how to supervise a drama, not to gossip about the cast and crew."
Pei Shaoyan whispered, "It's really familiar, I must have seen it somewhere."
Pei Shaoze turned around and walked towards Director Liu: "Follow me."
Pei Shaoyan scratched his head and thought about it carefully. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. When he opened his brother's room the night before, his computer screen just paused on a picture. At that time, his brother looked at the picture with very gentle eyes.
In the picture, the teenager is sitting in front of the piano, his white fingers resting on the keys. Because the screen was suspended, the young man's smile was frozen there. He lowered his head slightly and smiled at the piano, hazy and beautiful.
It's a pity that Pei Shaoyan only glanced at it, and Pei Shaoze closed the laptop screen. When asked who this person was, he didn't answer, but kicked himself out of the door.
The more Pei Shaoyan thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. My brother was obviously trying to hide it!
He quickly took out his mobile phone, opened the web page to search for Cheng Xia's name, and smoothly touched Cheng Xia's Weibo, and then saw Cheng Xia's post "Thank you @陈一君 Goddess for giving me this opportunity".
That's right! At that time, my brother said that it was a new song by Tianxuan's contracted singer Chen Yijun.
Pei Shaoyan quickly found the new song and clicked on the song's MV.
In the 4-minute MV, Cheng Xia appeared a lot, either smiling, thinking with his head down, or running on the court. The image of a high school tyrant with warm sunshine is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. With the rendering of dream special effects, it is really interesting no matter how you look at it. It's good-looking, especially the scene of playing the piano, no wonder my brother deliberately paused to watch it last night.
Recalling that when I went to my grandfather's house to pay New Year's greetings, Pei Shaoze said, "I already have someone I like. He is still young, and I haven't marked him yet, so I don't want to force him to be too hasty" - Pei Shaoyan's eyes lit up suddenly.
The 18-year-old Omega is indeed young enough to make sense not to mark it so early.
The person that big brother likes should be him, right? No wonder when watching his MV, his eyes are so soft, he still refuses to tell who this person is. Just now he even went to the studio to watch him take a makeup photo. Maybe, the big brother invested tens of millions in this online drama just for the sake of it. Holding your sweetheart Cheng Xia
Pei Shaoyan felt that he had discovered a shocking secret - he could be a detective!
