In the past two days, Lingxi lost nine of his ten lives due to his acting teacher, because he was about to play his first role in his life—although he was a dog with almost no lines—so Wu Youpeng paid a lot of money to hire an acting teacher. Help him special training assault.
It's just that all of Ling Xi's skills in his life have been focused on singing and crafting, which has resulted in a missing piece of his IQ and a piece of EQ. The specific performance is that he can't memorize his lines well, and his physical performance is also very uncoordinated.
In the performance class, there are hardly any props in the classroom, and many scenes need to be shown out of thin air based on the performers' body movements.
The teacher said, "Ling Xi, go and perform artificial respiration."
Ling Xi acts like a rapist...
The teacher said: "Ling Xi, go and perform a horse and whip."
Ling Xi acted like she was riding a bicycle...
The teacher said, "Ling Xi, go and perform a dying patient."
Ling Xi acts like a woman about to give birth...
After more than half a month of special training, the teacher's mother fell ill and was hospitalized. As a filial son of twenty-four, the teacher had no time to distract Ling Xi's class, so the acting class was naturally suspended. This decision made the pair of teachers and students breathe a sigh of relief. Taking acting classes or something is really shortening their lifespan!
Wu Youpeng knew that Ling Xi was nervous recently, so he mercifully gave him two days off so that he could have a good rest. In addition to his low IQ, Ling Xi is a very worry-free artist at other times. He never goes out to clubs and messes around, nor does he sleep with fans or take drugs. Every time he is on vacation, Ling Xi will lie down at home for a whole day. .
However, this time Wu Youpeng did not expect that Ling Xi left City B with a small bag without saying a word to him, and went all the way to find his holy girl!
※※※
Ling Xi's flight to S City this time is entirely a micro-service tour. He was wearing an ordinary T-shirt and big shorts that can be seen everywhere, a pair of flip-flops, a peaked cap on his head, and a pair of framed glasses on the bridge of his nose. He was aggrieved and curled up in the last row of the economy class. It is no different from the otaku college students who travel around.
Although no one could recognize him when he and Wu Youpeng were on the plane before, but Wu Youpeng would carefully match his clothes and arrange his hairstyle every time, and be sure to make sure that "if someone really secretly photographed him, he could be photographed. the best of him." It's just that Ling Xi went out this time on a whim. After eating breakfast in the morning and watching TV, he suddenly had a whim to prepare for a visit. He didn't prepare anything. He was wearing home clothes, holding a wallet, and carrying the salmon suitcase he made for him. , I happily bought a plane ticket with the mobile app...
Before boarding the plane, he hesitated whether to notify Wu Youpeng, but when he thought that Wu Youpeng would definitely use the topic to play and misunderstand his friendship with An Ruifeng's pure man again, he simply pretended to have forgotten about it and turned off the phone.
After a few hours of steady flight, Ling Xi landed in S City. He stopped a car at the airport and went straight to the film and television city in S City. The film and television city in S City is located in the suburbs, and the distance is almost to Lin City. The driver was originally unwilling to go. Ling Xi said that he was willing to pay for the empty fare back, and the driver agreed to take him.
This journey took several hours, Ling Xi woke up, woke up and fell asleep, bumping for a long time without reaching the destination. Seeing him bored looking at the unchanging scenery outside the window, the driver started chatting with him curiously.
"Little brother, I think you look very good."
Ling Xi said brazenly, "Indeed, everyone said that I was good-looking since I was a child."
"What are you doing in the film and television city, and also want to be a star?"
"I'm already a star now!" Ling Xi puffed out his chest, although he was only a 12th-tier singer now, and he didn't know anyone wherever he went, so he was considered a star.
"Oh, so what movie have you been in?"
"Well, I haven't acted yet..."
So the driver gave him a very cryptic look of pity: Look at this child, he has never even filmed a movie, and he begins to imagine that he is a star...
"Did you come to the studio to film?"
Ling Xi shook his head: "No, I have a friend who is filming, and I'm here to visit the class."
The driver nodded: I guess it's another kind of story of "anyone in a certain village acts as a group performer in the film and television city, so a whole village's strong men come out to act as a group performer".
It was boring to drive anyway, so the driver teased him along the way: "Are you just visiting the class? If you come to your friend, you can ask your friend to introduce a job to you. It would be nice for the two of you to film together then. ."
"How can it be so easy, he's so good-looking and hardworking. I can't compare to him anywhere..."
"Little brother, you must have a dream. You are so handsome, maybe you will be attracted by the big director as soon as you arrive at the film and television city!"
The two of them chatted very hotly, time passed quickly, and when Ling Xi realized it, the taxi had been buzzing all the way to the south gate of the film and television base.
"Hey Master, I haven't told you which door I'm going to!" Ling Xi said hurriedly. He plans to stay here for two days. The hotel he booked at night is outside the North Gate. The film and television base occupies a very large area. It takes a long time to drive from the South Gate to the North Gate. If the driver puts him here, how can he get there!
"Little brother, listen to me, just get off here, that's right!" The driver master pointed to the group performance outside the guide door that was squatting or standing waiting for work, and said earnestly: "Look, they don't all Is it here!"
Ling Xi was driven out of the car in a daze by the driver. With a confused face and sloppy clothes, he looked just like the dream chasers who had just arrived here. It's not right to say that, at least those dream catchers are carrying suitcases, and what he is carrying is a salmon sushi...
The film and television base in S City is very impressive. It is said that this is the largest film and television base in Asia, and the human landscape of the world can be found in miniatures. Many young people with star dreams or idlers who want to make a little money gather here. When the crew needs extras, they will be selected first from them. Over time, the South Gate of the S City Film and Television Base has gradually become a talent market, and the group performers who are waiting for work will come here early in the morning to try their luck.
Ling Xi stood in the crowd, looked left and right, and found that everyone seemed to reject him. In fact, this is not difficult to understand. The group performers are divided into several groups according to their hometowns. Even if new people join, they will come from the whole village. For example, Ling Xi is young, clean, good-looking, and can speak Mandarin very well. People come over, this is obviously a single-handedly grabbing business!
"Shouldn't it be a star?" someone whispered.
"How come, the stars all enter from the north gate or the east gate, and which star have you ever seen messed up so badly that they don't even have a bag?" said the person next to him.
Ling Xi was carrying the salmon suitcase and didn't know where to go. He looked at the crowd and wanted to find someone with a good face to ask the way. Unfortunately, he was unlucky. The group performers had just attacked the enemy camp, and there was a ferocious aura lingering on their faces.
Ling Xi could only take out his mobile phone to locate the north gate, and the phone beeped, prompting: The South Gate of the Film and Television City is six kilometers away from the North Gate, and it takes an hour to walk. The weather is hot, please take care to escape the heat...
Just when he was worried about whether to escape the summer or find a hotel first, three or four people suddenly appeared in the film and television city behind him. The man in the lead was about forty years old, with a moustache, and his upper body was covered with pockets. The big vest, with his hands behind his back, is very stylish.
"Hey, let's play in a group of twenty-five men!" The man waved his hand: "Those who are under the age of 30, those who are white, can't have a beard, and those who are over 1.7 meters tall, neither fat nor thin!"
The followers behind him continued: "No lines! Attention, no lines!"
"What are you talking about?"
"Republic of China movies, playing the soldiers of the Republic of China! Don't bomb, don't run!"
A savvy group performer asked, "Will people die?"
The attendant said: "Just one dead!"
"Does the dead one give a red envelope?"
"No portraits, no red envelopes!"
Group performances are based on the sky and the workload to settle wages. For example, when the emperor is on tour, the crowd will be 30; when the two armies are fighting, the cold weapon will be 80, and the one with artillery will be 120... The price of group performances of different shapes is different. The price of the lines is also different. If the person dies and needs to be placed in the portrait, hey, after the play is over, I can give you a big red envelope...
This time, the crew was easy to work, and the price was moderate. The crowd dragged out dozens of men. The assistant director and the staff behind him got rid of those unqualified appearances and found them. Only twenty-four were made in half a day.
"Another man!" said the assistant director. Having said that, he looked around in the crowd and didn't see a suitable one. Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the young man standing alone at the edge of the crowd, and he waved at him: "Hey, I think you can! Come and show me! Yes, it's you, the one with the salmon!"
Ling Xi, who was carrying the salmon, finally understood what the people around her were doing...
Ling Xi: "I'm not..." Group performance.
Assistant Director: "Young man, I think you are good-looking, especially suitable for playing dead people."
Ling Xi: "..."
Assistant Director: "You look kinda good, have you ever been on TV before?"
Ling Xi: "... I've been there several times." When he was most popular, he was at the New Year's Eve party in a certain second-tier city!
Assistant Director: "Oh, it seems to be quite experienced... Well, let me add a line to you."
The assistant director half-pulled and dragged Ling Xi into his team. Ling Xi was carrying the strange salmon suitcase with one hand, feeling as out of place as a corgi that fell into the grass and mud horses...
But the only advantage of this trip is that the assistant director came here in a long electric car that pulls people. Their crew is in the north. At least he doesn't have to walk for an hour under the scorching sun to the north gate. The other two dozen group performers were very familiar because they often waited for work together. Ling Xi couldn't fit in. They simply sat in the back row by themselves. Next to him was the assistant director's assistant, a little girl with a round face. There are dimples on the face.
The little girl asked him, "Why don't you ask me, what kind of play are we filming?"
Ling Xi then asked politely, "What kind of drama are you filming?"
The little girl's eyes and brows are full of longing: "There are many celebrities from the background of the Republic of China! The male lead is a mixed-race male idol who has been particularly popular in the past two years. Oh, you haven't seen it, those eyes are beautiful, gray, It looks like glass beads!"
"..." Ling Xi: "What is the name of the play?"
""Rogues"! Have you heard of it, it's been less than a month since it started!"
Ling Xi was so shocked that he almost threw the suitcase in his arms to the ground: "It doesn't happen to be the "Rogue One" with An Ruifeng, right?"
"Hey, you're quite well informed!" The little girl smiled with her eyebrows curling: "I'll tell you secretly, the dead man you played was killed by him at the first sight!"
