This is a big-budget movie. The director has made several award-winning films. From the production team to the actor selection, everything is top-notch. The only discordant factor is Cheng Qijiu. He

is a newcomer and is only 18 years old. He has no representative works to speak of, and this is even his first movie. But this guy has a deep background and is the most powerful connection in history.

Although Cheng Qijiu was signed as the male lead, the director has already informed the screenwriter that he wants to create two male protagonists in this movie, and at the same time strengthen the female protagonist's plot, and try to weaken Cheng Qijiu's presence. Of course, Cheng Qijiu should be marked at the front in the ranking.

The male lead is Qu Tiange, 24 years old this year. He is a rare actor with acting skills among the popular actors. He debuted in an idol drama and this is his first time to take part in such a big production. His original role was the male lead because his rebellious image is very similar to the prototype of the male lead. As a result, Cheng Qijiu came out of nowhere. He just took a look at a good piece of fat meat and it fell into someone else's mouth. Although he still participated in the film and even the director and screenwriter promised to add more scenes, this was a movie he was optimistic about winning awards, but it was snatched away by someone else. He simply hated Cheng Qijiu to the core.

The leading actress, Wang Yaya, is a talented actress. She has a baby face and looks only 17 or 18 years old. She can perfectly play a 15 or 16-year-old girl with makeup. Although the drama is famous but the actress is not, her acting skills are obvious to all. Instead of looking for young actresses, it is better to find a good actress to play the leading actress. After all, their movie is the hard work of everyone and there is no room for error.

For Wang Yaya, it doesn't matter who plays the leading actor, as long as she has a lot of scenes as the leading actress. Act well, earn some pocket money, and then you can rest for the year. Wang Yaya is a rare actress who has no ambition to be a careerist. This kind of Buddhist character is exactly in line with the character of the heroine.

It has to be said that Director Li Kaitian has his own unique vision in casting, and he rarely gives a positive face to those stars without acting skills in the entertainment industry.

Cheng Jiujiu can be said to be an accident. Cheng Jiujiu didn't even have an interview, but he was directly airborne as the male lead, and he brought his own investors.

Before entering the crew, the agent Wang Daye sorted out these relationships for Cheng Jiujiu, and told him along the way, telling him that it is of course okay to respect some seniors, but sometimes you don't have to swallow your anger. Cheng Jiujiu has the confidence to be arrogant.

As a new idol captain, if someone provokes him, he can be arrogant so as not to be looked down upon. Of course, the reason why agent Wang Daye has this confidence is that Cheng Qijiu's learning ability is obvious to all, and secondly, it is because of those great grandfathers!

Unlike the superficial relationships in other variety shows, the grandfathers protect Cheng Qijiu very closely, and some even give their contact information to Wang Daye privately, just to pave the way for Cheng Qijiu.

Various big men pave the way for Cheng Qijiu. As long as Cheng Qijiu does not behave shamefully, it can be seen that he will have a smooth career in the entertainment industry.

After arriving at the crew, Cheng Qijiu was only treated perfunctorily and then thrown aside. It's not that they ignored her, but they threw the script to Cheng Qijiu to read. I have only received the script now after accepting the role, so I can't blame others for disliking me.

As an agent, Mr. Wang had anticipated this scenario, so he arranged for people to take good care of Cheng Jiujiu. After all, he has already been known as a big star with a deep background, so it is better to let Jiujiu comfortably shoot the movie backstage.

So -

the director team, who originally disliked Cheng Jiujiu, watched Cheng Jiujiu's pomp comparable to that of a first-line star with envy, and they were really jealous.

This drama is set in the war era, and tells the story of a ruffian boy in the underworld who accidentally enters a troupe while fighting here and there. There, he had a full meal for the first time and also heard Peking Opera for the first time.

The little rascal was disgusted by the sight of a group of grown men drawing their eyebrows and putting on makeup while singing in a humming voice. He left immediately after eating. But he was now in a big city, not a remote village, and the people he had offended before were trying to catch him everywhere.

As a last resort, the little rascal slipped backstage to the troupe. After a while, the little rascal became familiar with the famous actor. The famous actor wanted to take the little rascal as his apprentice, but the little rascal preferred freedom. The relationship between the two was both teacher and friend. The little rascal gradually learned to read and understood some singing styles.

As a result, the famous actor was so proud that he would rather die than sing for the enemy. In the end, he was beaten to a pulp with sticks and thrown into the alley. No one dared to stop him. Only the little rascal went over to ask him, "It's just singing an opera, but you even risk your life. Is it worth it?"

The famous actor replied: "There are many things in this world that are more important than life."

He did not regret dying because he was proud of his nation. If he lost his dignity, he would be a fool. He always believed that his people would win the final victory. The only regret was that this heritage of his would be ruined. The

little ruffian was not very old, but he felt the great and unyielding integrity for the first time, and was touched for the first time in his life. Before the famous actor died, the little ruffian became his master.

Then, the ruffian began to carry his master's inheritance and search for those lost and disappearing operas in the era of continuous gunfire, learning little by little.

In the end, he finally preserved the heritage of Peking Opera, and he became a famous actor!

In the sentiment of home, country and the world, the story of the national quintessence Peking Opera, which is about to disappear in the storm but is passed on, is just like our motherland overcoming difficulties and finally witnessing the light.

Cheng Jiujiu's role as the little gangster male protagonist is very difficult. In the early stage, he has to play a sloppy boy and even start from the image of a beggar. In the middle stage, there are several major turns and changes, and even the costume of a female role is played. This is a leading role.

It can be said that the highlights of the whole story are unfolding in the changes in the little gangster's mental journey, which is a great test of acting skills.

However...

Cheng Qijiu couldn't help but frown as she watched the rest of the story. The plot of this little scoundrel only occupied the first half, and the rest were all about the heroine and the second male lead, such as the second male lead building the stage and the troupe and working with the heroine to recruit disciples. Later on, the hero played by Cheng Qijiu was marginalized and became an occasional supporting role?

Because the director team didn't think highly of Cheng Qijiu, even those who went on stage to sing later chose serious Peking opera actors as substitutes, and Cheng Qijiu had almost no role.

Was he afraid that she would mess up?

Cheng Qijiu frowned and said nothing. After all, she really couldn't sing Peking opera, and finding professional Peking opera actors to perform was a sign of greater respect for Peking opera. In addition, because he had just read the script, the director team shot some unimportant scenes in the early stage in order not to delay the progress. I have to say that this director is really professional.

Cheng Jiujiu was completely marginalized in the crew, and Lei Xingfeng soon heard about it. This overbearing father immediately got angry. How dare he treat his son like this after taking the money?

However, before he could take action himself, his subordinates conveyed the latest situation.

In just one day, Cheng Jiujiu went from being a marginalized poor kid to a rising star that everyone is looking forward to. That's what happened. Cheng Jiujiu's situation was indeed very embarrassing throughout the morning.

But!

In the afternoon, the director personally invited the national-level Peking Opera actor, Grandpa Hua, to come for the filming of the movie. Director Li Kaitian smiled like a flower, but Grandpa Hua asked him directly, "Where is Cheng Jiujiu?"

Upon hearing this, Director Li Kaitian's heart suddenly jumped. You have to know that this movie was originally adapted from Grandpa Hua's past experience, and Grandpa Hua was a very strict senior.

This kind of person who specifically asks for someone is probably here to cause trouble.

One is Cheng Jiujiu who was forced here by the sponsor, and the other is the prototype of the story, Grandpa Hua. Director Li Kaitian was about to cry. He really wanted to hide Cheng Jiujiu, but he couldn't. He could only send someone to call Cheng Jiujiu over.

Then, the whole crew was stunned to see Grandpa Hua, who was originally pushed in a wheelchair, stand up all of a sudden after seeing Cheng Jiujiu's figure and then trotted all the way to Cheng Jiujiu's side. His assistant rushed over with a big bag on his back.

Everyone witnessed with their own eyes that Cheng Jiujiu was fed by Grandpa Hua. The assistant's bag was full of all kinds of delicacies, and Cheng Jiujiu felt the love from Grandpa Yu head-on.

Director Li Kaitian felt that the scene was a bit dreamy, "What's going on?"

"I don't know..." The assistant director shook his head in confusion, "How did Grandpa Hua know Cheng Jiujiu?"

They were too serious about this movie and plunged into it wholeheartedly. They had no idea about the direction of the entertainment industry. The whole crew was confused.

Under all kinds of weird looks, Cheng Jiujiu silently accepted the feeding and was also puzzled, "Grandpa Hua, why are you here?"

"The role you play is what I looked like when I was young. Grandpa is very powerful!" As he spoke, Grandpa Hua had a proud look on his face. Originally, he had a general feeling about this movie, but he agreed to it because his children and grandchildren said that they wanted his life to be recorded and passed down, and he even became the Peking Opera master of the crew.

This guy, after going out to play, his heart is "wild" when he comes home, and he doesn't like to be bored at home all day. It's boring.

Seeing that his original children and grandchildren are also picky, they always think that they are not as good as Cheng Jiujiu. When Grandpa Hua returned home, he was depressed and looked forward to Cheng Jiujiu visiting him all day. His children and grandchildren looked very anxious, and could only tell him that Cheng Jiujiu joined the crew and had no time to come for the time being.

After asking him in detail, Grandpa Hua was happy. Then, he rushed to the crew, and started a new round of grandpa's love!

"Awesome!" Cheng Jiujiu looked at Grandpa Hua who was winking at him. He really didn't expect that when you were young, you were actually a gangster? I can't tell...
