Chapter 200: Filming is about to start, and I met an acquaintance
Chapter 200: Filming is about to start, and I met an acquaintance
Ten days later.
After all the preliminary preparations for "The World's Number One" were completed.
Jiang Nian and Gao Yuanyuan also boarded the plane to Xicheng.
The filming location of this drama was chosen at the film and television base in Xicheng.
Or it could be the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin Scenic Area.
It is not difficult to guess from the name that this is the filming location of the 98 version of Water Margin and the 94 version of Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Similarly, this is also Daxia’s first theme park that combines film and television culture with tourism, as well as one of the first national 5A-level tourist attractions.
"It's so spectacular."
“It really feels like going back to ancient times.”
Sitting in the car, Gao Yuanyuan looked at the landscape buildings outside curiously, with strange colors in her eyes.
Although she was born in the capital, she was not born with a silver spoon in her mouth like those rich kids.
As a child from an ordinary intellectual family, Gao Yuanyuan does not have many opportunities to go out and play on weekdays.
From childhood to adulthood, I have only traveled three or four times.
During one of those times, he and Jiang Nian encountered the Chuncheng incident.
Because of this, she is not as knowledgeable as her roommates Zhang Tianai and Jing Tian.
This made her involuntarily shocked when she saw the scenery before her.
Hearing this, Jiang Nian, who was sitting next to her, smiled:
"Of course, this is a scenic spot built by CCTV. Whether it is the macro or the details, the design is very sophisticated. What you see now is just the tip of the iceberg. In the next few months, our food, clothing, housing, transportation and work will all be carried out here. By then, you will not only be able to see its full picture, but also be able to enter some closed scenes to film. Don't be fascinated by it, because you really have traveled through time."
"No, Mr. Jiang, you think I'm too stupid."
"That's fine. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain to your parents. My goodness, she was a normal girl when she was sent here, but after she went back, she started to talk nonsense and said that she traveled through time. I'm afraid your parents will skin me alive."
Jiang Nian joked.
The scene of him going to Gao Yuanyuan's house and meeting Gao Yuanyuan's parents two days ago emerged in his mind.
After all, I have to take their children to film in other places and I won’t be able to see them for several months.
Every parent would worry.
Especially since Gao Yuanyuan had no acting experience before, she got such a big role right after she finished acting.
It was hard for the two elders not to suspect that Gao Yuanyuan had been deceived.
There was no other choice, Jiang Nian could only go and meet Gao Yuanyuan’s parents.
In other words, he is very famous now, and he received official praise not long ago.
Only then did Gao Yuanyuan's parents feel relieved and hand Gao Yuanyuan over to him.
Otherwise, if it were someone else, there would probably be no way to bring Gao Yuanyuan out.
As for Gao Yuanyuan’s agent during this period.
After discussion among Jiang Nian, Yang Mi, and Gao Yuanyuan's parents.
Naturally, it fell on Jiang Nian.
It's like taking care of a new person and having to act as a babysitter.
Listening to his teasing, Gao Yuanyuan lowered her head, fiddled with her fingers, and said with a lack of confidence: "No, no, no."
"Okay, okay, no, no." Jiang Nian smiled and changed the subject: "Speaking of which, we're about to start filming, how do you feel about that?"
"Um, I kind of need to go to the bathroom."
Gao Yuanyuan rubbed her hands awkwardly and said.
Although she agreed quickly at that time.
But that didn't stop her from feeling panicked now.
After all, it was the first time for a grown-up girl to get married.
How is it possible that I don't have any feelings at all?
Seeing this, Jiang Nian understood her situation. He did not comfort her, but just said:
"Wait a moment, we'll be there soon. By the way, how was your reading of the script?"
"I've read it all and memorized it, that's it."
"Just what?"
"I just feel that this role is a bit difficult. On the surface, she is gentle and virtuous, but in fact, she is scheming and has a very complicated personality. I feel it is very difficult to play her well."
Gao Yuanyuan showed a troubled look on her face.
Obviously, for her, a student who had never acted in a play before.
The complex character of Liu Sheng Piaoxu is extremely difficult to perform.
In response, Jiang Nian smiled and said, "These are all trivial matters. Do you remember why I gave you this role?"
"You said this role is very suitable for me."
Gao Yuanyuan thought about it and asked tentatively.
Jiang Nian nodded:
"Yes! Fit. I don't know what your understanding of fit is, but in my opinion, fit is when a role cannot be played well by anyone other than you. This can be considered a fit."
"You and the character of Liu Sheng Piao Xu are a perfect match."
"That's why I saw this, and I want to give this role to you, a newcomer with no experience."
"Because I know that with your talent and ability, you can definitely interpret this role perfectly!"
After he finished speaking, Jiang Nian looked at Gao Yuanyuan.
That determined look made Gao Yuanyuan dazed for a moment.
She didn't expect Jiang Nian to think so highly of her.
Gao Yuanyuan swallowed her saliva: "Can I really do this?"
"Of course you can. You have to trust my vision, but you also have to trust your own talent!"
"Besides, even if we take a step back, if you really are not capable, why would I take the risk and bring you into this crew?"
"Is it simply because of our good relationship?"
Jiang Nian stared at Gao Yuanyuan with burning eyes.
But in my heart, I silently said, "It's true."
That’s right, the purpose of everything Jiang Nian said now, in the final analysis, was to calm Gao Yuanyuan down so that she would stop having wild thoughts.
As for "fit" and "perfect interpretation".
He just made that up.
This thing is not that mysterious.
Which of the roles that Jiang Nian has played so far has not been played by someone else in his previous life?
When the job was handed over to him, he performed it even better.
Gao Yuanyuan was not aware of this.
Her eyes flickered only after she heard Jiang Nian's words.
Gao Yuanyuan is very conflicted now.
On the one hand, she felt that what Jiang Nian said was nonsense.
On the other hand, she felt that what Jiang Nian said was true. After all, if she was not capable, there was really no need for Jiang Nian to do this for her.
"call-"
"No matter what, since Teacher Jiang says I can do it, then I can definitely do it!"
Gao Yuanyuan had this thought in her mind, and the panic she had when she first joined the crew suddenly dissipated a lot. Then she looked at Jiang Nian and said seriously: "Teacher Jiang, I understand, I will definitely not let you down!"
"Well, a boy can be taught!"
Jiang Nian said this with a smile, and then started chatting about family matters with Gao Yuanyuan.
And she actually believed Jiang Nian’s lies.
In the front driver's seat, Zhang Linyu, who had listened to the whole process, twitched his mouth and silently gave a thumbs up.
6. The Year of the Ginger.
You really just think that people are naive and try to trick them to death.
It has to be you!
Ten minutes later, the car passed through the scenic area and entered the shooting area.
It is visible to the naked eye that the flow of people has decreased a lot.
This is normal. Although this is a tourist attraction, it is ultimately a film and television base.
Many crews of costume dramas come here to shoot.
If it were open to tourists, it would definitely be crowded.
This had a serious impact on their filming.
After driving along the road for about five or six minutes.
Soon, the car stopped in front of an antique building.
A chubby, middle-aged man with a comedian vibe was standing at the door, having been waiting for a long time.
When he saw Jiang Nian coming down, a bright smile suddenly appeared on his face. He quickly stepped forward and stretched out his hands:
"Hello, Mr. Jiang. I've heard a lot about you. I'm Wang Jing, the producer of our show The World's Number One."
Hearing this, Jiang Nian also smiled and said, "Hello, Producer Wang, I'm Jiang Nian, and this is Gao Yuanyuan whom I told you about before. Come, Yuanyuan, say hello."
"Hello, Producer Wang. I've heard a lot about you. Please take care of me."
Hearing Jiang Nian's instructions, Gao Yuanyuan, who had been extremely reserved since getting off the car, quickly bent down and bowed.
Hearing this, Wang Jing looked at Jiang Nian, then at Gao Yuanyuan, his eyes slightly narrowed, as if thinking about something.
But he quickly put away the strange look and said with a smile, "Ms. Gao, you are too polite. It's hot outside. Let's go inside and talk. How about that?"
"it is good."
Jiang Nian nodded, then patted Gao Yuanyuan, indicating that she could straighten up and follow him.
Gao Yuanyuan understood what he meant and quickly followed Jiang Nian into the house like a little follower.
As soon as she came in, Gao Yuanyuan, who was already nervous, got hard.
Because she found that there were not only her, Jiang Nian, and Wang Jing in the room.
There are quite a few other people here too.
Noticing movement at the door, they all looked up.
Jiang Nian made eye contact with one of them and immediately laughed: "Hey, Old Huo, we meet again."
Hearing this, Huo Jianhua also showed a smile on his face. He stood up and raised his fist, "Yes, Mr. Jiang, it's fate. Not long ago, producer Wang kept us in suspense and said that he had invited a heavyweight actor to play Cao Zhengchun. I was wondering if it was you, but I didn't expect you to actually come."
"That's it, buddy, who are you? A professional eunuch, okay?"
After saying that, Jiang Nian also clenched his fist and bumped it with Huo Jianhua, which counted as a greeting.
To be honest, Jiang Nian has been acting for so long, but this is the first time he has met the same person in different crews.
This feeling is quite strange, there is an inexplicable sense of security.
"What are you acting in?" Jiang Nian asked.
Huo Jianhua smiled coquettishly and put his two fingers together to make a sword gesture: "Return to the Sea with a Knife!"
"Gui Hai Yi Dao? This is so handsome. Boy, I only pick eunuchs to play the role, and you only pick handsome ones, right?"
Jiang Nian said with a smile.
Huo Jianhua was not polite about this. He raised his head slightly and pretended to be distressed and said, "There is no way. The conditions are here. I can't refuse to act."
Seeing him feeling so good about himself, Jiang Nian laughed: "Get lost, you old sultry guy. You were acting before and paying attention to your image, but now you don't even want to act anymore, right?"
Huo Jianhua expressed his helplessness: "I do want to maintain my image, but I can't help but be in a room full of acquaintances! You don't have to mention it. We were filming in the same crew not long ago. Brother Li has worked with me before, and Sister Xuan also met Brother Li. How can I pay attention to my image? If I pay more attention, it will be a bit pretentious."
This is the greatest helplessness of human beings.
It's like at the school celebration, you are ready to perform on stage and act cool, but when you lower your head, your good brothers look at you like you are an idiot.
Who can hold on in this situation?
Then, Huo Jianhua noticed Gao Yuanyuan following behind Jiang Nian, raised his eyebrows, and asked curiously: "Teacher Jiang, who is this?"
"Oh, this is my senior schoolmate. We have a pretty good relationship. She also plays the role of Liu Sheng Piao Xu."
Jiang Nian gave a brief introduction and did not say anything like 'this is her first time acting' or 'please take good care of her'.
On the one hand, saying this has no meaning other than putting pressure on Gao Yuanyuan.
On the other hand, that’s enough.
Let Huo Jianhua and others know that Gao Yuanyuan is theirs, and these old hands like Huo Jianhua will naturally understand what to do.
As expected, Huo Jianhua was slightly stunned when he heard Jiang Nian's introduction.
Then he smiled and extended his hand: "Hello, Ms. Gao, I am Huo Jianhua, please take care of me in the future."
Hearing this, Gao Yuanyuan was immediately flattered.
Does she take care of Huo Jianhua?
"Mr. Huo, you are too polite. I should be the one to trouble you to take care of me."
Gao Yuanyuan said quickly, keeping her attitude very low.
Huo Jianhua agreed on the surface, but deep down, he had another idea.
There's nothing you can do about it, that's just how it works in their line of work.
If you don't have any tricks, you won't know how you got killed.
And as for the current situation.
He had never heard of the name Gao Yuanyuan.
Therefore, it can be preliminarily judged that she should be a newcomer.
But a newcomer joined their crew, which had invested 300 million yuan, and got the role of Liu Sheng Piaoxu, which played a key role in the later part of the plot. He is definitely extraordinary.
In addition, Jiang Nian still thinks highly of her and takes the initiative to stand for her.
"not simple!"
Huo Jianhua put a label on Gao Yuanyuan in his heart.
Those who had the same idea as him included Ye Xuan, Li Yapeng, and Wang Jing in the room.
Especially Wang Jing, because Jiang Nian asked him for the role of Gao Yuanyuan, so after combining the fact that Jiang Nian stood on Gao Yuanyuan's side, he was already certain in his heart that Gao Yuanyuan's background was not ordinary.
It should be a noble person.
After all, those who have money can just spend money to arrange people, there is no need to go through so much trouble.
And Jiang Nian is well-known for being a rebellious person.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have had such a bad relationship with the Sunshine investor before.
In this situation, it is difficult to bribe him.
Unless there is a background.
Considering that Jiang was singled out for official praise not long ago, it is definitely unrealistic to say that no one contacted him.
And now that they were in touch, it was completely reasonable for Jiang Nian, who was very popular in the entertainment industry, to help out his useless child who wanted to enter the entertainment industry.
Thinking of this, Wang Jing became alert and the look in his eyes when he looked at Gao Yuanyuan changed.
"Reasonable, so damn reasonable!"
