Chapter 120
The popularity of the group variety show lasted for a long time.
TP's comeback this time is scheduled for the spring of the following year, and the group variety show is to continue this period of hiatus. But no matter how much the popularity continues, fans know that the group has reached an important node and the frequency of their returns will never go back to the past.
This big group variety show seems to be an important signal.
Limited groups are different from regular groups. There will always be a moment when the show ends and everyone goes their separate ways. Now that half of the time has passed, the development of each member has been put on the agenda. Otherwise, there wouldn't be quarrels in the forum every day.
There have been fewer quarrels these past two days.
Zou Yi’s words “It would be nice if I could always do what I want happily” were directed to Jie Xichao, but more likely to all the members.
It was like a subtext, so the fans understood it, and in fact they understood everything.
Although they understood everything, they still attended all group activities and sincerely wished each other well in letters. Although the fans of the show are harsh in their words, most rational fans know in their hearts that this should be the best-connected talent show group in history.
In this way, TP's fan circle has experienced the most peaceful period since its debut.
only……
There was not even two days of peace before a new storm arose.
After the recording of the group variety show ended, TP members started their respective schedules.
This is normal.
In fact, TP opened up personal resources almost from the end of the second year.
In addition to regular comebacks and some magazine, announcement and advertising shoots, many times, the announcements that TP members run are not all for all members. But this time, this tendency is particularly obvious.
Yun Pan and Zou Yi have a self-made variety show, which is a resource provided by Sheng Hong. It is a slow-music variety show, and some guests in the circle are invited to each episode.
Fu Wenzhe is shooting for a magazine.
He has the most fashion resources among TP members besides Li Xichao. Because of his good performance in still photos, he is deeply favored by the fashion circle. This time the magazine also became a little bit popular, it sold very well and the fans were very happy.
Ai Qingyuan, who has a similar style to him but is too eccentric, has recently been participating in a competitive variety show. Different from the original "Super Rookie", this variety show is specifically for debut artists to compete. There are a total of twelve episodes, and the progress has just passed the halfway point.
Xie Xichao...
Xie Xichao's fans endured for several days, and finally couldn't help but rush to Shenghong's official blog:
"No, fuck, everyone has had their turn, so it's our turn, right? Teacher, where's our Xi Chao???"
Yes.
The group show is over.
Jie Xichao disappeared.
He disappeared so cleanly that no one knew what he was doing.
-
Suburbs, bamboo forest.
It was early winter and a heavy snow had just fallen.
The withered bamboo swayed in the cold wind. It looked like it was about to be crushed in the cold wind.
Also suffering from the cold were the staff of "Xunxianji" who had been busy here all morning.
Props Preparation When Yang Hu carried the props he was going to use to the scene, the camera equipment had just been set up. He sniffed the snot that had frozen from the walk, and was finally free after handing the props over to the handover staff. He huddled in a makeshift shed nearby and poured a thermos of hot water.
After drinking the scalding water, the bone-chilling cold finally dissipated a little.
He sighed heavily. The companion who had just moved props with him also stood beside him. The two stood a little further away. One of them lit a cigarette and looked at the set not far away, both sighing.
"It's so cold," said the companion, "it's really not easy."
"Filming." Yang Hu took a puff of his cigarette. "The entertainment industry is like this. Rain or shine, equipment and venues cost money. One more day of filming means one more day of spending. You have to rush to finish the filming."
He paused and said, "This drama has about 70 or 80 episodes to air. The progress has been fast enough in the past few days."
At this point, both of them paused.
Their eyes all fell on someone on the set.
This is a young man in his early twenties. At this moment, her face is fully made up and her long hair is loose, making her look like an immortal.
Of course, this is not a special costume in a fantasy drama.
What’s important is that the other person was wearing a thin white dress. What he wore was much thinner than the two of them who were wearing sweaters and down jackets.
It was obvious that he was also cold. During the breaks in filming, he walked around on the set in his down jacket. People around him were amused by his childish movements. A staff member came up to him and handed him a cup of hot water, and he politely thanked them.
After drinking the hot water, my face got some color. He consciously shrank into a studio nearby and continued waiting for the filming to begin.
However, no matter how much hot water or how thick the down jacket is, they will be banned when the actual filming begins.
Not long after, Yang Hu and his companion watched with some pain as the staff came up and took off his down jacket, leaving him with only a thin costume for filming. Almost instantly, the other person's face turned pale from the cold.
His whole face was wrinkled, and it was obvious that he was not very cold-resistant.
Generally speaking, such an environment is very bad for actors. It's not their fault, but seeing such expressions, Yang Hu and the others will be mentally prepared for today's filming to be delayed.
But at this moment, the two people had no such idea at all.
The companion sighed and said sympathetically: "Teacher Xiaojie is at work again today. It's been so many days."
Yang Hu took a puff of his cigarette: "Of course."
"But he should still go to work." He said very wickedly, "If he goes to work, we can leave work earlier."
While they were talking, the young man had already stood in his seat tremblingly.
Even at this moment, his face was still wrinkled.
But in the next second, as the power-on prompt came, the expression on the other person's face suddenly changed.
His expression was indifferent and cold, and he looked at the camera with a faint, calm disdain. With her cool makeup, she looks like a truly banished immortal who has fallen into the mortal world.
The wind is howling.
The dead branches were stepped on and broken, and Yang Hu and his companions looked at each other. They saw the same idea in each other's eyes.
...It's fucking awesome.
Yang Hu thought.
Then he took a long puff of his cigarette and wrapped his down jacket tighter in the cold wind.
*
Xie Xichao arrived at the set of "Xingxian Ji" early one morning.
At that time, he had just finished recording a group variety show and had just arrived in City A for two days.
His fans on the Internet were crying loudly, but no one knew that, apart from the time spent flying back and forth, Xie Xichao actually didn't rest for a single day and was almost working non-stop.
When Yang Hu saw Jie Xichao for the first time, he had only a very simple feeling in his heart.
That is:
pretty.
Having worked as a handyman on the crew for many years, he has met many of his idol actors. Most of them are just good-looking. After seeing so many, I just picked one.
But there are indeed not many things that can surprise him.
But the other person does have a very good-looking face.
Because of the tight schedule, the other party came without any makeup. She came in a white down jacket, jeans and canvas shoes. She was so plain that she didn't look like the top star with countless fans as rumored.
Even so, Yang Hu was still so amazed by him that it felt like his feet were glued to him, and he was stunned for several seconds.
That is a very pure temperament.
She has a pure and clean appearance, with delicate and exquisite facial features.
Perhaps it was because red energy nourishes people, the originally non-aggressive light complexion combined with the other person's effortless aura created a kind of almost stunning beauty. Yang Hu dared to bet that he was definitely not the only one who was amazed.
At least his companion was one of the people who were stunned with him.
--certainly.
No matter how handsome he is, he is still a man.
Yang Hu has a normal sexual orientation, and no matter how good-looking a man is, he is only someone he admires.
After being amazed, Yang Hu's second thought was:
Finished.
He has seen too many little idols.
Although there are both men and women, and most of them are not as pretty as the one in front of you, they almost all have the same common problem.
That's being pampered.
Not only is she spoiled, but her acting skills are also terrible.
Idol?
Singing and dancing are my main job.
Yang Hu didn't know why they were all flocking to the acting profession, but he really wanted to advise them that if they didn't have the skills, they shouldn't take on this job.
Basically, he has been in groups with popular idols.
Either their roles are so small that they have no presence at all, or the entire crew is driven crazy by torture.
Working all night is the least of the worries. Who can stand the director getting mad every day?
When this idea came to mind, the previous surprise was nothing.
Yang Hu's temples were throbbing at that time. If he wasn't really short of money, he would have quit his job on the spot.
He prepared for the worst, but he didn't expect——
In other words, the entire crew had not expected that such an idol who looked like a vase, who was rumored to have many outstanding achievements in the idol industry and had almost no acting experience, would give them such a big surprise.
-
The first scene shot after Xie Xichao arrived was an indoor scene.
This is a very emotional scene.
Because the venue has a rental period, he had just finished filming a group variety show and when he arrived he just happened to catch the last two days that the venue was available.
So, before they even got to know each other well, he was forced by Lu Yong to act in the scene where Jingyin breaks up with the male lead.
The hero Yun Jue discovered that it was his senior brother who was behind the so-called infant corpse case. The person he once trusted deeply turned out to be a demon. His emotions collapsed instantly.
In the secret room where they used to have heart-to-heart talks, he confronted Jingyin.
The conversation broke down.
Then, a fight broke out.
In the end, Jingyin relied on the evil skills he had cultivated to severely injure Yun Jue and escape from the Floating Cloud Sect.
It was such a difficult scene with all the noise and fighting.
then.
No one had any hope for Jie Xichao.
but……
Go through it once.
From the script reading to the start of filming to the end, it took no more than two hours.
Yang Hu still remembers that day, listening to Jing Yin's heart-wrenching roar in the room and watching the other party do the fighting scenes himself without even using a stunt double, all the people present had wooden expressions.
After the game, Dou Fei was scolded by Lu Yong.
Because he made a low-level mistake in his last solo scene and needed to reshoot it.
At the same time, Xie Xichao became famous in one battle, and from then on he had a new nickname in the crew, which was——
-
"Teacher Xiao Chao!"
There was a distant shout from the door, and Jie Xichao poked his head into the shed:
"Sister, I'm here!"
The girl in the black down jacket handed him a cup with a smile: "Here, ginger soup."
"The director just had it cooked." She said with a smile, "One for each person."
Xie Xichao took it and quickly thanked him: "Thank you, sister."
The girl went out with a smile. Jie Xichao took a sip of ginger soup. The spicy taste spread in his mouth, and at the same time, there was a warmth spreading to every part of his body.
He sat there in a daze for a while, then checked Weibo.
Under the latest selfie, fans are still crying and wailing:
"Baby, where have you been? Mommy can't see you."
Xie Xichao: “…”
He felt the same way, but there was nothing he could do.
Since the crew of "Legend of Immortals" started filming, the shooting schedule has been very tight due to the large amount of work.
After he landed, he basically didn't rest for a single day, and the plays were rehearsed from morning to night.
Of course, there are really no resources for showing one's face. Sheng Hong didn’t give it. Not only was the money not given, but all the group funds were changed into small team resources. For this, he even reached a brief reconciliation with Wen Yaodu, who he had always been at odds with.
From this perspective, Xie Xichao’s fans were not wrong to scold him.
Sheng Hong deliberately refused to give it, while Jie Xichao turned down Yao Xin's offer after repeated consideration.
This time when he joined the crew, the crew specially arranged his schedule.
The group variety show must be shot outside for half a month, and at the end of the year, if TP wants to win an award, all major TV stations must "tour", and he definitely won't have time to hang out with the crew.
Unfortunately, the filming period of "Legend of Immortals" was very long, and his scenes were rather scattered.
Lu Yong thought about it and adjusted the shooting schedule for him, concentrating his scenes within half a month. Even Dou Fei's scenes were moved forward or back for him.
This is a great honor for the newlyweds.
In such a situation, if we have to run around to make announcements, not to mention anything else, if the crew's shooting schedule changes at the last minute, it will delay everyone.
In addition, "Xun Xian Ji" was filmed in a completely closed environment. Since this was the first drama, Yao Xin did not dare to promote Jie Xichao too much or reveal too much. If it accidentally affected the crew's publicity rhythm, Jie Xichao, a new supporting actor, would not be able to afford it.
The combination of these factors forced Jie Xichao to go missing.
Xie Xichao was also helpless.
Fortunately, this awkward situation is finally coming to an end.
Three days later, when Shenghong’s official Weibo was about to be completely destroyed, a row of marketing accounts appeared on everyone’s homepage.
【Breaking News:
Adapted from a popular IP, the casting for the male-led thriller "Xun Xian Ji" has been confirmed!
The list of leading actors is as follows:
So, except for those few names that everyone knew, everyone saw the row of words.
Jingyin-Jie Xichao.
