Chapter 183 Fame, Jealousy

Meng Cheng'an was also assigned a role, which Tian Xiang really didn't expect.

And this character was obviously added intentionally, it didn't exist before.

Two shots, one line of dialogue, from getting off the ship to reporting to the research institute, Liu Jun chased and filmed for a full ten minutes.

After the filming of that day ended, Tian Xiang said that if there were such things in the future, she could just tell her directly, and she could also raise objections and ask the director to change the script. There was no need for him to do things he didn't like just for her.

Meng Cheng'an doesn't like being the center of attention. Tian Xiang noticed this when the two of them were performing in the factory earlier.

Meng Chengan: "I want to support your work."

Tian Xiang glanced at the words "pampering wife" above his head and sighed, "I will still focus on the stage in the future. If there is such an opportunity again, I will choose the role carefully and try to avoid these."

Meng Chengan smiled, "Okay."

The shooting took about two months and ended just before the winter vacation.

I heard from the production studio that after some post-production work, the film will be aired after the New Year.

This is Tian Xiang’s first time appearing in a TV series, and I’m looking forward to it.

This year, Tian Xiang, who is already the granddaughter-in-law of the Meng family, did not go back to her parents' home. She lived in Beijing and only took a plane back on the second day of the Chinese New Year to visit her family and stay there for a few days.

During the days when she returned to her parents' home, the TV series she filmed last year was aired.

Hu Honglian would put the TV outside every night and invite neighbors to come and watch her daughter and son-in-law's first screen performance.

There have been almost no long TV dramas to watch in the past two years, so the popularity of the show has remained high since its first broadcast. In addition, as the 1980s began, more and more families in the city owned televisions, and many people watched the show, which attracted enough attention, so Tian Xiang became famous overnight.

Although she only starred in a few episodes, she was so youthful and beautiful, as beautiful as a peerless beauty, that she directly overshadowed the main female lead.

Everyone thinks that she should continue acting.

The actor was replaced halfway through, and it seemed that the character became less and less pretty as she aged, and could not match the appearance of her youth.

But think about it, everyone gets uglier as they grow older.

Tian Xiang became famous, and soon after that Meng Chengan, who only had two shots in the film, was also remembered by everyone.

Who is this? He is so handsome. He is simply the dream lover of all female comrades. From old ladies to young girls, all are fascinated by his handsome face.

It’s a pity that this handsome guy is not the protagonist.

During the days when Tian Xiang and Meng Cheng'an returned to her parents' home, they couldn't go out at all. They would be recognized as soon as they went outside.

The two could only hide at home during the day, and ride their bikes back to the Military and Political Court after dinner at night. Later, when they met with friends, they also chose places with private rooms.

They endured this for a few days, and when they were flying back, they were still recognized by many people at the airport. Fortunately, everyone was very polite and just asked Tian Xiang and Meng Chengan for autographs. Knowing that the two were husband and wife, they praised them and said that they were a match made in heaven and looked even better in real life than on TV.

Tian Xiangting enjoyed the process very much. When someone called her, she would just wave her hand and sign autographs for them, acting very relaxed and at ease.

Meng Cheng'an wasn't feeling so good, he felt very uncomfortable and a little nervous.

Seeing how hard he was working, Tian Xiang took out the masks she had prepared. After the two of them put them on, they finally had some peace and quiet around them.

After returning to Beijing, the two tried to go out as little as possible and stayed at home except for work.

Tian Xiang doesn't mind becoming famous. She has always been heading in this direction, and some things are inevitable.

Meng Cheng'an was somewhat affected.

Tian Xiang felt a little regretful that she shouldn't have let him appear on TV.

Meng Cheng'an was also very distressed. Later, Liu Jun came to him again and said that he had tailor-made a script for him. Meng Cheng'an didn't even look at it and directly drove him out of the unit.

As for Tian Xiang, because her first screen performance was well-received by everyone, she subsequently received many film offers, including TV shows and movies.

However, she always puts the big stage and her studies first, and refuses all roles except those that she really likes.

It was precisely because of her careful selection that every role she played afterwards, even if it was a small supporting role, would receive considerable attention. Her fame grew, and in just one year, she became almost a household name.

Meng Cheng'an never appeared on TV or in movies again after that incident. He developed his professional skills in the research institute, and when he graduated, he successfully stayed in the institute and became a researcher.

As the winter vacation was approaching, Meng Cheng'an accepted a task assigned by his superiors and went abroad with the team.

As for Tian Xiang, she joined a new crew after the final exam.

The director is Liu Jun again. He was in contact with Tian Xiang when he was writing the script, and the role was tailor-made for her. It tells the story of a female manager of a large factory who devoted her life to her career after divorce due to infertility.

Tian Xiang felt that the job setting of this role was very similar to when she worked in the factory, and the growth and ending also had a bit of a heroine meaning, so she took the role.

The main filming locations this time were in factories and family quarters. After the cast list was finalized, Tian Xiang saw several familiar names.

Because this time Liu Jun was selecting people from their school again, in addition to Tian Xiang, Chang Wan was also there, and she was the third female lead. Then Xiao Lei, Zhong Xuesong, and several students from other classes were also selected, all of them playing small supporting roles.

The focus of this story is on the two sisters. In addition to Tian Xiang, there is another protagonist, Pang Meiqi, a talented girl and school beauty in their school.

This girl had graduated when Tian Xiang entered the school. With the increase of her screen works in the past two years, she has become one of the most well-known actresses in the country. Not only is she a household name, she also has several representative works and has won awards. Her popularity is even higher than Tian Xiang.

Tian Xiang has seen the movies and TV series she starred in. She has good acting skills and is pretty. This time, the two of them will have a lot of rival scenes. She is quite looking forward to it and hopes to learn something from her senior.

But when the filming started, Tian Xiang met Pang Meiqi, but she ignored her. Apart from work, she never spoke to her. When Tian Xiang asked her to act opposite her, she looked down on her.

Tian Xiang was a little depressed. She looked at Pang Meiqi's forehead and found that she was neither a top character nor a villain, but just a minor supporting role, but with the word jealousy behind her.

So, she was jealous of herself?

What is she jealous of? Is it your own beauty?

Tian Xiang was a little confused.

Once when he was acting with Chang Wan, this person said to Tian Xiang mysteriously: "You may not know this, Pang Meiqi once pursued Cheng An and even wrote him a love letter. But Cheng An ignored her and went to her and returned the letter in front of everyone, saying that he already had a fiancée, which made Pang Meiqi feel ashamed."

Chang Wan spoke as if she was complaining, and she covered her mouth with her hands while laughing.

Tian Xiang looked at her speechlessly, "Are you happy talking about other people's ugly things?"
