116 A long-lost crew experience (plot)

For actor Song Qixian, playing a weak role is a novel experience.

This time, his character He Xiu is a quiet and introverted boy when he is not working, and he looks a little weak.

For Song Qixian, who debuted just over a year ago, this kind of role is not his comfort zone.

Among the five roles he played, Cha Min-seok and Yoon Min-woo are the only two who are close to Song Qixian's original age, one is a dark boy and the other is a gentle academic master.

They are all different from He Xiu's personality.

Although He Xiu was adopted by a killer group since he was a child, he is actually a simple boy.

He has many half-brothers and half-sisters, and he also unilaterally adopted a stray kitten.

In front of his older brothers and sisters, he has always been a well-behaved and obedient younger brother.

He is simple in that he knows nothing about the ways of the world.

He is not like Cha Min-seok who is filled with the fire of revenge, and because he kills without blinking an eye, he is destined to never live in the sunshine like Yoon Min-woo.

He would not feel guilty about killing people. In his opinion, killing a person is no different from killing a chicken.

To put it bluntly, he is the one who has been most assimilated into the world of killers.

Therefore, he and the girl Ming Xihe were destined to never be together, as they were from two different worlds.

After finishing his makeup, Song Qixian said to the mirror, "He Xiu, I will be you these days."

The boy in the mirror smiled shyly, as if silently answering him: "Hello, Qixian."

Because they were going to shoot a group portrait drama, Song Qixian joined the crew with the main group.

Many times, he has to play the role of a quiet younger brother beside his seniors. He has few lines, but his presence is needed.

This is also the first time since Song Qixian became famous that he did not take the lead alone. This time he had the opportunity to watch the performances of his predecessors.

The senior who plays the eldest brother Minwan is almost 40 years old this year, but he is well maintained. Whenever he goes out, people will praise him as the elegant and handsome Agassi.

His acting is excellent, and he immediately captures the decadent temperament that is unique to Min Wan. It's still the same face, and he's still handsome, but not as handsome as he is off screen.

Only when he kills someone easily and neatly can the audience understand the charm of this character.

The senior who plays the killer's sister Min-ji often played some pure female roles in movies in her early years. However, the film industry is too competitive, so she returned to the TV screen when she got older.

She clearly has her own understanding of the lustful killer Min-ji. She makes a very cool appearance and inadvertently reveals her desire for handsome men. While making people fall in love with her, it is inevitable that they will feel that this woman is a bit vulgar.

The senior actor who plays Xi Yuan is also over 30 years old. At this age, he is a bit awkward in the TV circle. First, he has no representative works. Second, when he still wants to work hard in the field of idol dramas, the audience has already chosen young actors like Song Qixian.

But he does have some talent after all, and he portrayed the shy and bookish Seok-won vividly.

The senior actor who plays Jun Jae is in his twenties, in the prime of his life, and looks handsome. However, unlike Song Qixian who looks naturally handsome, this senior actor's nose looks a bit unnatural.

The four seniors are all very friendly to Song Qixian, a celebrity in the TV circle. Even the older brothers have to worry about whether their younger brother will compete with them, but the older sister doesn't have to worry about anything.

Then, Song Qixian received a special invitation.

Song Qixian was a little at a loss.

Of course he didn't go, but when he faced this senior the next day, he felt a little unnatural.

However, the sister who made the invitation acted much more straightforward than Song Qixian, the man, as if nothing had happened.

Song Qixian breathed a sigh of relief.

Apart from this little episode, Song Qixian was very satisfied with life on the set.

The seniors performed with such ease that it was a real pleasure to watch them. Song Qixian couldn't help but wonder how he could perform the role himself to achieve even better results.

Song Qixian's humble and studious attitude has won him the favor of many people.

In his spare time, the director would tease Song Qixian: "How is it? What did you learn today?"

At this time everyone laughed, because Song Qixian was the youngest brother in the crew, so everyone liked to tease him.

Song Qixian smiled good-naturedly and said, "I've learned your filming techniques, Director. After I retire, I might try to make a movie myself. But I might need to ask you for advice then."

This remark caused another round of laughter, and the director said, "Come on, Xiao Song, stop acting for now and come over here so I can teach you how to film. I think you should have the tuition ready, right?"

As expected, Song Qixian went to the director's side and asked the director to play the role of teacher without hesitation.

This move left some people on the set stunned and a little jealous.

Enter the shooting,

It was another dinner gathering of a group of Killers, but compared to the usual glamour, everyone looked a little disheveled now.

The second sister Minzhi rested her head on the legs of her fourth brother Junzai. Her hair was messy and she looked tired. She directed her younger brother Hexiu to buy some food.

"He Xiu, you want big pieces of meat, okay? Top-quality chicken thighs coated in flour and fried until golden brown, topped with a secret sauce. Wow—I can't wait to devour it."

The eldest brother Minwan looked as listless as Minzhi, with droopy eyelids and dark circles under his eyes, like some mascot of the neighboring country.

At this moment, he was lying on the sofa and also ordered his favorite food.

"Stone pot bibimbap, spicy stir-fried rice cakes, blood sausage, these are the only foods that can fill a tired body."

Jun Jae was also a little tired, but unlike his brothers and sisters, he didn't order a lot of food. He said simply: "Iced Americano, thank you."

As for the second brother Seok-won, he plans to go buy food with Hyuk-soo.

But He Xiu shook his head and refused, he was used to acting alone.

Seok-won, the sensible, gentle and shy younger brother, wanted to touch Hee-soo's head. Hee-soo understood what his second brother meant and bent his legs obediently so that Seok-won could reach it easily.

Xiyuan touched Hexiu's stiff hair and sighed: "Our Hexiu has grown so tall."

This opened up everyone's conversation.

Min Wan said, "When I found Hee Soo, he was only 8kg and not even as tall as a chair."

Minzhi said, "Not only that, when He Xiu first arrived at the organization, he didn't eat a single bite. I was so anxious that I spent half a month's salary on milk powder. Damn, milk powder is so expensive. I didn't buy clothes for a month. Fortunately, I killed a fat and wealthy man and got a lot of good things from his safe. That ended my miserable life..."

Junzai really wanted to interrupt. He really wanted to say that milk powder was not that expensive. Although the organization was cruel to them, the welfare subsidies they should have received were in place. It was impossible for a girl who was not yet an adult to raise a three-year-old child.

Sister Minzhi has no money, probably because she spent her money on other things.

But knowing that if he said anything, she would tease him again, Jun Jae didn't want to say anything. He signaled with his eyes that He Xiu should leave quickly, otherwise the older and nagging brothers and sisters would not stop talking.

Fortunately, Min-wan and Min-ji couldn't hear what Jun-jae was thinking. Otherwise, even if he had a handsome face, Min-ji would stand up without hesitation and give her beloved brother a "love education".

He Xiu didn't want to listen to his brothers and sisters' nagging anymore, but he said nothing, just opened his hands.

Meaning: Where is the money?

The wallet flew through the air, and He Xiu reached out and grabbed it handsomely, and the wallet fell steadily into his palm.

Without any polite words, the loud sound of the door closing was He Xiu's farewell.

He Xiu was wearing a full set of black clothes and pants, and a black baseball cap. He liked this combination, and he always dressed like this, whether he was on a mission or in daily life.

The breeze blew across He Xiu's face. His appearance was as unpretentious as he was, but he had an inexplicable feeling.

A couple was arguing on the street, and the onlookers were scattered to watch the excitement, but they didn't expect the husband to suddenly pull out a knife and rush towards his wife. The crowd was in an uproar, but no one dared to step forward to stop them.

The frightened wife stood there in a daze, not daring to move, but the knife did not pierce her body.

In mid-air, He Xiu grabbed her husband's wrist, twisted it backhand, and the knife in her husband's hand flew out.

The husband felt severe pain in his wrist and a sense of inexplicable fear in his heart.

That child looked at him as if he were a dead object. Wouldn't a normal person be afraid of a knife? Why wasn't he afraid at all? Why did he dare to come up and grab the knife?

No one answered the husband's questions. The onlookers seemed to react at this time and rushed forward to tie up the husband. Some people enthusiastically called the police, and some people surrounded the wife to comfort her.

No one cared about He Xiu, and He Xiu didn't care either. He carried the food he bought, stepped over his wailing husband, and continued walking towards home.

Before filming these scenes, Song Qixian had already learned martial arts from a martial arts master for a period of time.

Of course, he was just a show-off, and the script only required him to perform cool action scenes.

Fortunately, there are not many martial arts scenes in this scene, so he has plenty of time to learn slowly.

What Song Qixian didn't tell others was that he was very fond of martial arts. When he was young, he watched many classic martial arts action movies and once had a dream of being able to punch like the uncles in the movies.

Taking this opportunity, he secretly raised his own standards without the director asking him to do so.

Even if it is just a decoration, you should try your best to be perfect.

Soon, Song Jiayi, who played the female lead Ming Xihe in the Hexiu unit, joined the crew.

She is a girl as beautiful as a flower, and Song Qixian looks at her with appreciation.

Their acting is very natural. In name, Song Qixian is the oppa, but in the circle, Song Jiayi is the senior.

Sometimes, the director would let Song Qixian and Song Jiayi be alone together, so that they could find the feeling of first love.

Although they were alone together, there were many people on the set and the assistant was sitting nearby, but there was only a chair between them.

Song Qixian was a little embarrassed because he was being teased again by the "senior" in front of him.

"Oppa has never been in a relationship? That's amazing! It seems like I'm your senior from this perspective."

The girl's laughter made Song Qixian even more embarrassed. He wanted to explain that idols can't fall in love and he didn't have that intention, but he knew he would be laughed at if he said it out loud.

He simply stopped talking.

The phone call saved him. After Song Qixian stood up, he could still hear some discussions about his love life. It seemed that no one expected that Song Qixian, such a handsome man with a bright future, had never been in love.

Song Qixian thought helplessly, so respecting one's profession is also something worth discussing?
