Views:

After Duan Changke left, Fang Lin continued to stay in his apartment and read the script. He had a good memory and had read the original. Many scenes with a lot of lines could be firmly remembered after several times. The whole afternoon passed The progress is gratifying.

On the way, Duan Changke sent him a message asking that his aunt would come over to cook him dinner and clean up the house by the way, and asked Fang Lin if he would mind. Naturally, Fang Lin would not embarrass Duan Changke. Not long after sending the message, his aunt came to the door.

Sure enough, Auntie was as well-trained as the driver last time. She didn't ask questions about who Fang Lin was and why she was here, and she didn't show curiosity. She just greeted him politely, and then began to tidy up the bedroom with a calm face.

Fang Lin blushed inexplicably, and thought that it was good that he tidied up the mess in the bedroom a little bit, otherwise no matter how thick-skinned he was, he would not be able to face Duan Changke's aunt.

Duan Changke didn't tell him when he would be back, or whether he would be back today, and Fang Lin didn't ask, what to do after dinner, until late at night, after washing up, he climbed onto the bed in the guest room alone, drowsy with his mobile phone .

He glanced at Weibo, which he hadn't been on for a long time, and found that even though he hadn't even handed over any new works in front of the public, the number of fans had increased a lot after he crawled a hot search and posted an official announcement, and he still sent private messages from time to time every day Send it over. There are pure passers-by who are curious about him, there are Meng Jinyu's die-hard fans who taunt him tirelessly, there are also Meng Jinyu's black fans who keep sending over protection, and there are crowds of onlookers who start to make wishes to him, saying that such a little-known little Celebrities can get this kind of resources, and I pray that I can get the offer I want too.

Fang Lin thought it was a little funny that he, who was the one who got the resources by hugging his thighs, actually became a koi in others' mouths.

Fate is really amazing.

He started to feel drowsy after swiping for a while, and he was still pressing his fingers on the screen to shave carelessly. In the end, he couldn't overcome the drowsiness. As soon as he let go of his hand, he fell asleep without changing his clothes.

Fang Lin even began to have bizarre dreams very quickly, in which all the tactile sensations in the dream were not real, and he was floating around wildly, dreaming of Tao Le crying and saying Lin, why are we not popular yet, and dreaming of Meng Jinyu snatching his face proudly? Returning to my role, dreaming of grandma's warm hands, saying over and over again, we are Linlin is a big star. He seemed to say something back, but he didn't seem to say anything.

He dreams a lot but sleeps very lightly, so when there was a small sound at the door, Fang Lin opened his eyes dazedly.

Duan Changke stood in front of him, still wearing the clothes he left at noon.

He probably just came back, he was dressed neatly, and there was a little other smell on his body, maybe it was a social event, maybe it was something else, Fang Lin couldn't smell it anyway.

"Did it wake you up?" Seeing that he was awake, Duan Changke didn't approach him, but asked him not far away.

Fang Lin propped himself up and sat up, still dizzy, shook his head: "No. What time is it?"

"At half past eleven."

"Oh..." He was still sleepy, rubbing his eyes and said, "It's so late."

"How is the script memorizing?" Duan Changke asked him as if chatting.

Hearing this, Fang Lin smiled triumphantly: "I know everything by heart, so I can pick up any game."

"Okay," Duan Changke just clicked, "then you can continue to sleep."

Fang Lin yawned, stretched out his hand sleepily and grabbed Duan Changke's sleeve, pulled out a little wrinkle, and asked loudly: "Then I won't do it tonight? If you really want to, wait until I slow down." slow..."

Hearing what he said, Duan Changke asked a little amusedly: "I am so hungry in your eyes?"

"I'm not doing my duty." Fang Lin muttered confidently, "I will solve your problems."

The smile on the corner of Duan Changke's mouth did not dissipate, and he jokingly said, "Okay, go lie down on the side."

Fang Lin hadn't fully woken up yet, and didn't understand the meaning of the other person's words. He let out an "ah", blinked his eyes, and really listened. Slumped, he looked at Duan Changke sleepily: "Otherwise, I'll go to the bathroom to get ready..."

As a result, before he finished speaking, his pants were lifted up by the other party, and he was pushed into the bed, and the quilt was thrown back on him.

"Don't make trouble." Fang Lin heard Duan Changke's voice in the still tired late night, his chest pressed against himself, the stuffiness was unreal, "I won't torment you anymore. Go to sleep."

Fang Lin was still struggling with this matter: "Then don't need the bed warmer?"

"..." The person above the head was silent for a while, "It's 28 degrees today."

"Alright then." Fang Lin closed his eyes and muttered, "Anyway, you think I can't kiss."

As he spoke, his lips were lightly pressed: "You hold grudges so much?"

Fang Lin whimpered, probably didn't know what he said: "I'll practice more."

"Really." The fingers on the lips became stronger, but the voice became lower, as if forcing him to answer, "Do you want to practice?"

What was not asked was how to practice and who to practice with.

"..." Fang Lin didn't speak.

Duan Changke moved closer, and found that Fang Lin was breathing heavily, and fell asleep after speaking halfway.

He sighed, but he was also glad that the other party didn't answer his stupid question.

Fang Lin didn't seem to be sleeping well when he came here, he probably had some kind of dream, his brows were always frowning, and he woke up at the slightest movement.

But now he is better, his eyebrows stretched, and he fell asleep relaxed.

Duan Changke didn't look back, but turned off the light for him.

Fang Lin did not dream in the middle of the night.

When he woke up and was alone in the apartment, he thought about it a little before confirming that Duan Changke had really been there last night.

He seemed to have said something, but he was too sleepy to remember, and comforted himself, anyway, Duan Changke didn't care about such details, and didn't take it to heart.

The breakfast on the table was still hot, Fang Lin sat at the table and ate alone, after thinking about it, he sent a message to Duan Changke: Thank you Mr. Duan, I'm going out now.

The other party didn't reply, probably busy.

Fang Lin had no intention of inquiring into the other party's work and life schedule, but he also began to try to accept the current situation with peace of mind. He dialed the driver's phone number given by Duan Changke, and went to the film crew after an appointment for an hour.

The other party also considered some details, and arranged for Fang Lin a very ordinary and low-key car, which also avoided some unnecessary troubles.

Tao Le has arrived, and was joking with the staff. Seeing him coming, he waved at him excitedly: "Brother Xia called me just now, and he said that he can continue to take you with him now. Is it true?"

"Yes."

When Tao Le heard him say this, the flesh on his stomach became much happier: "Hailin really has vision!"

Fang Lin squinted at him.

Tao Le didn't realize it, and continued to express his inner excitement: "Mr. Duan, the eternal God!"

Fang Lin hesitated to speak, but decided to keep the matter a secret: "Yes."

Although he reacted coldly, Tao Le was still happy because of this fact. Fang Lin even thought that he was so happy that he would treat the whole group to afternoon tea the next second.

But afternoon tea has already been prepared.

During the conversation, the actors and staff of the two groups came one after another. Chu Chen's assistant smiled and carried two big bags of things to distribute one by one. Fang Lin thanked and took a copy.

The field recorder is always the busiest person, and has begun to coordinate various departments without touching his feet.

Chu Chen came over with coffee, and Fang Lin greeted him: "How was the filming of group A these two days?"

The two days before he came were basically scenes between the male lead and the female lead, Chu Chen said that it was okay: "It's just that director Rong has been paying attention to the details these two days, sometimes a card is played more than ten times, and he gets a little angry. "

Fang Lin recalled the previous scene where Rong Jiu even praised himself, but couldn't imagine how he lost his temper: "Ah, Director Rong?"

"Yeah," Chu Chen sighed, leaned over and said in a low voice, "You'll find out later. Anyway, just play yourself well. Director Rong's temper comes and goes quickly. At worst, he will be said a few words, don't Take it to heart."

Knowing that Chu Chen was comforting himself because he hadn't been in the group much, Fang Lin gratefully agreed. Chu Chen seems to be very kind to everyone, warm and patient, and has no airs, let alone treat them differently because of their popularity.

Fang Lin has no friends except Tao Le and Xia Qi. Artists who were at the same time as him became popular faster than him, and he has already risen to the top. I don't know anyone.

Chu Chen is the second person to show affection to him since his rebirth. Unlike Duan Changke, this is a simple and sincere gesture of wanting to make friends.

The other party looked at the record of the busy scene, put his hand on the railing, did not look at Fang Lin, but still talked to him: "Actually, I think you are pretty good."

Fang Lin turned his head to look at him.

"When I first entered the industry, I was also a stunned young man. I was so narcissistic. I felt that I could beat most people with my professional background. Many times I didn't listen to the lectures, thinking that what I understood was the best," Chu Chen was a little embarrassed. Smiling, "As a result, I can't stand the things I took."

"When I was studying, it was superficial. Later, when I made up my mind to act well, I began to observe those who performed well in the group. Only then did I realize that skills are one thing, but talent and empathy are another. Something. Some people have not been trained, but just eating this food, no matter how simple the role can be performed very vividly, I realized my own narrowness at that time."

"There is another kind," Chu Chen thought for a while and said, "It's that the strength itself is really good, but if you can't get it right, then you collapse, and you can't find your aura and ability. I'm lucky. It went well, so there was a script for me to choose, but those people didn't."

"That's why I think you are rare." Chu Chen stretched out his hands and made a gesture of surrender, and said with a strong desire to survive, "Let me tell you first, I have no other intentions, and I am definitely not complacent—"

"I admit that I have read your resume. It is not easy for you to persist all these years." He threw away the paper cup and continued, "What's more, you can still maintain your love, which makes me think that you will definitely Would be a good actor."

"By the way," Chu Chen said, "I also watched the clip of your first audition before."

"At that time, many people chose a scene with strong conflicts. Only you chose a simple segment with a weak emotion. The key is to really perform the feeling mentioned in the play. I thought at the time, if you get the role in the end , I must come to make friends with you."

Chu Chen's voice was not loud, but Fang Lin said a lot.

"I know that many comments on the Internet are too radical, but there is no need to worry too much about it. It is expected that the director will choose you, because you are really suitable for this role." The staff in the distance began to let various departments prepare, and Chu Chen then He patted Fang Lin's shoulder, "Shoot well, this movie will get better in the future."

Fang Lin stood where he was, holding the drink bought by the other party in his hand.

The cell phone in his pocket vibrated, and he took it out, it was a message from Duan Changke.

The other party replied with a "hmm" and nothing else.

It was a reply to the message he said in the morning that he would go to the film crew.

Fang Lin stared at the phone screen for a long time until his eyes became a little sour.

Is he really good at acting

he does not know.

He could feel Chu Chen's kindness, but he was too timid to respond.

He wanted to tell Chu Chen that he didn't choose section A because he was completely unprepared after being reborn and chose one that looked a little easy on his own accord

And being able to get the role is not based on strength. On the night when he and Duan Changke slept for the first time, Rong Jiu's half-spoken words already showed everything.

Without Duan Changke, he might still be struggling now, just like before.

Fang Lin lowered his head and smiled almost invisibly.

Today's first session will start soon, Tao Le came over to hold the phone for him.

The little fat man ate the cake that Chu Chen bought and laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth. He didn't know what happened. He just felt that the little artist he had been with for a long time was going to be popular, and he was dreaming happily.

Fang Lin handed over the phone to him for safekeeping, couldn't hold back, and flicked his forehead with his hand.

Tao Le was taken aback, and reflexively took two steps back, turning around in dissatisfaction: "What are you doing?!"

Fang Lin coughed: "It's nothing. Itchy hands."

That's it, he thought.

Anyway, he got it, no matter how he got it.

Why should I always feel guilty, did he miss something

If you act badly, you will be scolded, and if you act well, you will be praised.

It's all his anyway.

Just now Chu Chen said that director Rong was not easy to provoke these few days, Fang Lin hadn't actually felt it, but after watching the first scene, he understood what kind of "not easy to provoke".

The male number two, Jiao Ze, did not perform satisfactorily during the script reading last time. This time he and Lan Peirou had a lot of rivalry scenes, so he was inevitably a little nervous when he was in the role.

When Rong Jiu came here, he was dressed casually and his hair was a bit messy. Seeing Jiao Ze standing aside, he went up and patted him on the shoulder in relief: "Xiao Jiao, don't be nervous, just perform the performance I told you that day, it's a big deal Just practice a few more, it’s a big deal.”

But Jiao Ze didn't seem to be comforted, but just nodded: "Good director Rong."

There was no need for this scene, so he just stood aside and watched.

In less than ten minutes, Rong Jiu's voice resounded throughout the set.

"Jiao Ze! What's the matter with your feelings! The affection in your eyes is not to make you feel bitter and bitter towards the heroine! Stop! Do it again!"

"Don't look at me! Look at the heroine! The heroine! Card!"

"Why are your hands so stiff! She still doesn't know what happened back then! You are also an ignorant person! Are you going to spoil the audience for the first few episodes?! Ka—"

"Affectionate but introverted! Introverted! Don't be so oily about your expression management! Take it easy!"

Rong Jiu took a piece of paper and rolled it up, anxiously started to guide: "Look at me! Imagine that I am the one who saved you! Oh no, why do you look at me so oily?"

At any rate, Jiao Ze was selected through a serious audition. He was scolded in public and his face turned red and then pale. He was somewhat embarrassed, but he still cooperated obediently. It took a long time to take ten shots before he was satisfied, and cut to the next scene.

The next match was Chu Chen's. He gave the other party a look from the air. Although his performance was better than that of Jiao Ze, he would inevitably be yelled at by Rong Jiu when some details were not answered.

Even Lan Peirou was not spared, but she was an actress after all, Rong Jiu suppressed his temper somehow, but he was not ambiguous in the details, as long as the requirements were not met, he would not give them to anyone.

Tao Le looked at it and felt that the things in his hands were not fragrant, carefully pulled Lin Lin's clothes, and said worriedly: "Lin, if you are scolded later, don't take it to heart, don't be affected Mentality, when we are nervous, our acting will be even worse..."

"That's why you can't trust me?" Fang Lin looked at the tense Tao Le, but his heart was very calm. On the contrary, he even had a little expectation.

He didn't care too much about face, he just felt nostalgic.

There will be someone watching every detail of you, striving for perfection and trying to be better; instead of acting like he did before, it doesn't matter what you do.

Fang Lin walked to the camera seat and stood still, waited for the slate to come down, and started shooting—

The place where this scene happened was in the school, which seemed quite ordinary.

It was still the same classroom as before, and it was still the scene where Ji Haiyao and Jing He ran into Jing Chuan after school together. The difference was that this was the second time Jing He had experienced such a scene.

His life was turned upside down, and everyone passed by him like a template and passers-by, but he had to start over again and again to find a way to break the gears.

Last time he was still a naughty and troublesome problem student, but this time he was so flustered that he lost his soul. He couldn't believe that the time had come again, and he blocked Ji Haiyao on the way home from school.

Chu Chen's face was full of the fear and anxiety of his youth, and he still couldn't adapt to it. He had clearly finished his graduation exam yesterday, but he just had a quarrel with Ji Haiyao, so the time went back to a year ago.

But he didn't know if Ji Haiyao's time had also gone backwards, so he could only walk over there, restrained his first publicity, and communicated with the other party almost carefully—of course, the end result was that he was the only one trapped in time .

Post-production will edit this paragraph and the three people's real first encounter into an overlapping flashback, which not only deepens Jinghe's character design, but also enriches the entire plot setting.

Later, Jing He would experience more than one "first encounter" like this, and his mentality would change step by step, from temptation, struggle, discouragement, collapse, to finally standing here and crying.

This part requires a lot of time to shoot, and it is a big test for the actor's acting skills. As for Ji Haiyao and Jing Chuan, they only need to respond to every change in Jing He.

It stands to reason that apart from Jing He, this is still the first meeting between Jing Chuan and Ji Haiyao. The two of them seem to have not changed much. Jing Chuan is also like the first time, calling her "Sister Yaoyao" a little bit shyly and expectantly. .

In this scene, Chu Chen is mainly responsible for the control of some expressions and movements. There is no lack of Rong Jiu digging out the details over and over again. If he is not satisfied, Rong Jiu will stop directly and tell him the scene again. When he was lecturing, Lan Peirou and Fang Lin were also listening, and Rong Jiu told the two of them by the way, and only continued after confirming that the three of them were absorbed.

Therefore, the shooting time was very long, and in order to connect with the editing line, the makeup had to be touched up all the time. After all the shooting of this scene was finished, it was evening again.

There will be a night show at night. According to the plan, everyone can rest for two hours before continuing. The crew has already prepared dinner, and the actors can eat after the show.

Fang Lin was afraid that his clothes would get dirty and he would not be able to take part in the show, so he asked Tao Le to get a thin coat to put on, and then he took his meal and went to the side to eat.

Because the three of them were still in the night show, they simply got together for dinner. Chu Chen's personality got along well with everyone, and Lan Peirou was also more easy-going, and getting along was not tiring. Female stars are always very strict with their body, Fang Lin just watched her nibble on the vegetables in the grid, and barely touched the others.

After Lan Peirou finished eating, she raced against the clock and picked up her phone to read novels.

As soon as Rong Jiu left the monitor, he showed a different face. First, he routinely comforted Jiao Ze, who was scolded by himself before, and almost doubted his life. .

In the end, he stood still in front of Fang Lin and looked at him with admiration: "Today's performance was very good. I thought I would spend some time on you, but the effect turned out to be unexpectedly good."

It has been a long time since Fang Lin was praised so bluntly by someone like a director. He was prepared to be scolded bloody, but he was greeted with a bunch of flowers, and he was actually a little uncomfortable: "Thank you, thank you Rong guide."

Chu Chen jokingly followed suit: "Director Rong, praise me too!"

Rong Jiu followed his words and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Okay, let me boast first, if there are too many entries tonight, then I will work harder and take them back?"

Chu Chen hurriedly said forget it, it's still according to your habits, I can't afford it.

Rong Jiu glanced at him with a smile, and when he turned around, he saw Fang Lin who was in a daze.

He was straightforward at first, and he said whatever he thought of, so he called his name again: "I didn't have time to communicate with you before. Actually, I noticed you when you were auditioning. Not many, the assistant director and I agree that you are suitable for this role, and now it seems that our choice was right."

"Ah?" Fang Lin couldn't think for a while, "Isn't it..."

Didn't Duan Changke find you, so I got this role

But he couldn't say this kind of question, so Rong Jiu's praise seemed to have changed in his ears.

For a moment, he really thought that he got the role by virtue of his ability.

Luckily, Rong Jiu just expressed his feelings and didn't continue talking.

It was around the heat of the afternoon scene, and the shooting of the night scene was much smoother. Even Jiao Ze's performance was better than before. The scene that was originally planned to be filmed in the early morning ended early, and everyone happily called it a day.

Chu Chen lived close to Fang Lin's room, so they went back together.

Because it is a modern drama, there is no need to go to places such as the film and television city, but this area is still the location and filming location of many film and television dramas, and the nearby hotels are often booked by various crews.

While Chu Chen was swiping his phone while walking, Fang Lin said, "I almost forgot, let's add a follower on Weibo? Anyway, I have to bring you for the follow-up promotion and business, so add it first."

Before Fang Lin hesitated, Chu Chen continued: "Don't worry about the others, my fans are gentle, it's different from... that, don't worry."

Fang Lin realized that Chu Chen was talking about Meng Jinyu.

Chu Chen suddenly thought of something while walking, and stopped: "Speaking of Meng Jinyu, I only heard about it when I came here today. He seems to be filming here these two days..."

He has been an actor since his debut, so he has nothing to do with traffic idols. He doesn't know Meng Jinyu's origin, but because he prefers Fang Lin, he will subconsciously want to side with him under the online public opinion: "At that time, Jing Chuan was auditioning. When I saw him pass the second test, I watched it, but I didn't expect... "

"It's a good thing that you were chosen in the end." After all, Chu Chen was not familiar with Meng Jinyu, so he just clicked and said this.

Fang Lin and Chu Chen finished the mutual relationship, said goodbye and went back to his room to take a shower. Unexpectedly, he didn't feel sleepy, so he took out his mobile phone and opened Weibo, staring at his newly added mutual relationship list.

Someone has already found out that the two are close to each other, and Chu Chen's fans really came to say hello and celebrate politely, and also asked Fang Lin to take care of his family Chen Chen. Fang Lin browsed Weibo aimlessly for a while, and when he was about to quit, he glanced at the trending searches, and he saw what Chu Chen said just now.

Meng Jinyu really took on a new drama, he was temporarily added as a guest star, and now he has joined the group, it seems that he might really be next door to him.

He thought of the Meng Jinyu he met that day. In fact, he didn't seem to have much scheming, but he just had a bad temper.

What's more, in the end, I got the role myself, and it's normal for the other party not to like him.

Fang Lin lay on the bed, thinking about everything that happened today.

Chu Chen said he was rare, and Rong Jiu praised him for his talent.

It's like... his life should go on like this from the very beginning, he auditioned for roles based on his ability, and made like-minded friends.

But only he himself knows, no.

If there is no Duan Changke.

If there is no Duan Changke...

Whether it was impulsiveness or not, he had a vague expectation in his heart, and he was actually very curious about how Duan Changke told Rong Jiu to give him the role he wanted.

Is it possible that Rong Jiu is not looking at Duan Changke's face, but really appreciates and recognizes himself

He tossed and turned on the bed, finally couldn't hold back, picked up his phone and sent a message to Duan Changke.

Before long, Duan Changke called.

This time, Duan Changke's background sound was a little noisy. He probably hasn't returned to the apartment yet, and he might be having a party.

"Mr. Duan." Fang Lin listened to Duan Changke's breathing, and asked him, "When you asked me for this role, what did you tell Director Rong?"

Duan Changke didn't seem to expect him to ask this, and asked instead: "What's wrong?"

"I..." Fang Lin hesitated when the words came to his lips, "I'm just curious."

"You want to know?" The voices around Duan Changke became a little quieter, probably walking to a place where no one was around.

"Ok."

"Fang Lin," Duan Changke suddenly changed the subject, "Do you still remember what happened on the night of the dinner?"

Fang Lin was silent for a while.

Of course I remember, Rong Jiu said to Duan Changke during the meeting, "Thank you very much for coming on the day of the first audition", which convinced him that it was indeed Duan Changke who gave him the role he wanted, so he simply left the meeting early Buy something, pack yourself and deliver it to your door as a reward.

Duan Changke's voice sounded a little helpless: "I gave you the room number, but I actually wanted to explain this matter."

Hearing this, Fang Lin bit his lip.

"It may be useless to say it now," Duan Changke was probably smoking, his voice was a little foggy, and he sounded a little rambunctious, "In fact, I just told Director Rong that I will invest more, and there is no need to choose an actor I don't like because of financial problems Well, I didn't mention your name."

Fang Lin squeezed the phone, and listened to Duan Changke's last sentence.

"So, judging from the results, you did beat all the other audition candidates for this role, and got it by yourself."
