After Qin Li and Qi An left, Ji Li and others watched the replay again.
The chief cameraman is a veteran of Wang Zhang’s filming team and has excellent shooting skills.
Even if Ji Li's words and actions were improvised on the spot, he could capture them in an instant and quickly give the most appropriate composition.
The occasionally shaky images highlight the characters' struggles and vanity to the greatest extent.
It can be said that the actors' acting skills and the picture composition are equally wonderful.
There is no doubt that this is a good show.
Feng Cheng and Wei Lai spent most of the day on the set. When Wang Zhang announced that they were done with work, they pulled Ji Li aside and said, "Ji Li, we're done with work. Do you want to go eat hotpot?"
Ji Li was surprised by their suggestion, "Hot pot?"
Feng Cheng hooked his arm around his shoulder, looking very familiar, "Yes, didn't Director Wang say that the three of us should cultivate our relationship? How about a hot pot party?"
Wei Lai's personality is quite Buddhist outside the play. He just nodded and said, "There is a hot pot restaurant in the town center. It's open until 1 a.m. It's still in time to go now."
Compared to the arrogant Cai Yishu, Ji Li still has a good impression of the two existing leading actors.
The three boys in the play have been close friends since childhood, so it is reasonable for them to quickly establish friendship outside the play.
"Okay, I'll pack up and come over soon." Ji Li replied.
Wei Lai took out his phone and said, "I'll ask my assistant to reserve a table first. What kind of soup base do you want?"
Feng Cheng hadn't let go of Ji Li yet, and raised his eyebrows at him, "Let's decide peacefully?"
"Can you guys eat spicy food? How about a nine-square grid?"
"Of course." Feng Cheng, who comes from Xiangzhou, a city that loves spicy food, snapped his fingers in response, "Can hotpot be called hotpot if it doesn't have the nine-square grid?"
Wei Lai smiled and did not refute. He turned around and gave instructions to his assistant.
…
After the performance, Ji Li returned to the lounge alone to remove her makeup.
There was a knock on the half-open door. Ji Li said without even raising his head, "Baozi, you can just come in. Why are you knocking?"
There was no expected joyful sound. The person's tone was very shallow and dull, "Ji Li, it's me."
Ji Li reacted immediately and looked sideways, "Teacher Mu?"
Mu Sui'an met his gaze and curled his lips, "Is it convenient? I just want to borrow you for a few minutes to chat."
"Of course it's convenient." Ji Li walked up and invited him to sit on the sofa in the lounge.
Before the other party could speak, the young man took the initiative to ask, "Teacher Mu, do you think I acted appropriately in the scene I just performed?"
Compared with senior actors, directors and crew members, what Ji Li wanted most was feedback from Mu Suian himself.
After all, he is interpreting the other person's past.
The redness in Mu Sui'an's eyes had not completely faded away. He had watched the entire shooting process and kept it in mind.
The young man acted out his despair back then, and also acted out his "extravagant hopes" over the years - he also wanted to protect his mother at all costs, and he also wanted to watch her leave with a smile.
"Thank you, Ji Li."
Just five simple words are enough to say it all.
Just then, Baozi's footsteps were heard outside the door, "Brother Ji, are you okay? Feng Cheng and the others are waiting for you to go together."
"I won't disturb you for now, but I have something to give you." Mu Sui'an stood up decisively and took off a wooden rope bracelet from his wrist.
"I'll lend you this amulet that my mother gave me before she died. Ji Li, I'm looking forward to seeing you on the big screen."
Compared to his resistance and disgust towards Cai Yishu, Mu Sui'an only had full trust and gratitude towards the young man in front of him.
Ji Li felt his palm suddenly sink, and his heart became heavy as well.
He looked at Shang Mu Sui'an sincerely and nodded seriously, "I will play this story well."
"From the moment you chose this role, I believed in you."
After Mu Sui'an left, Baozi came to Ji Li's side and asked, "Brother Ji, what are you daydreaming about?"
Ji Li tied the wooden bracelet tightly around his wrist and asked, "Bao Bao, do you know why I like acting?"
"Why?"
Ji Li smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
There are all kinds of people in the play.
They play roles, but it is the people outside the play who can redeem.
…
In this world, food is the most powerful thing to win people's hearts, let alone the culmination of all, the nine-grid hotpot.
In addition to Ji Li and other three male actors, their respective agents and assistants also went to the hot pot restaurant. The group of people had a lively meal together and quickly became familiar with each other.
At twelve o'clock, everyone returned to their hotel rooms.
Ji Li took a quick shower, and Xue Bing, whom he hadn't seen for a day, crawled onto him like a spoiled child.
After more than three months of raising, the cat has grown a lot in appearance. His big dark blue eyes were blinking, and there was a shallow scar on his nose, which made him particularly distinctive.
Ji Li feeds Snow Cake in a very scientific way, so its body is very well-proportioned and sleek, and its long and smooth fur on the back makes people want to stroke it just by looking at it.
Ji Li's potential cat slave nature was aroused, and he picked it up and rubbed it, "Biscuit, biscuit, did you miss me today?"
Xuebing patted his arm with her pink and tender kitten paws, her voice still full of milk, "Meow."
It feels good to pet a cat, and it will be good to pet a cat all the time.
The man and the cat played for more than half an hour before Ji Li's body and mind were completely out of the play. He took out his mobile phone and logged into Weibo, which he hadn't visited for a long time.
The last time I posted on Weibo was half a month ago.
Ji Li remembered what Yu Fuya had said before she returned to her room, quickly typed a line of words, and clicked send on Weibo.
"New friend, new character, Xiang Sui'an is here."
The picture below is a photo of three people. The photo was taken when Feng Cheng took him and Wei Lai together while they were eating at a hot pot restaurant.
Not long after the Weibo post was published, fans who were eager to see the video came flooding in.
—Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, boy! Mom is here too!
——A benefit for staying up late, I finally waited for Jili to post on Weibo! So handsome, so tender and so good-looking!
——Brother, eat more. I miss you so much.
——Are those Feng Cheng and Wei Lai in the photo? Holy shit, how did you three know each other? Sure enough, the handsome guys in the entertainment industry all want to play together!
——The three of them should be filming a movie together, right? Is Xiang Sui'an the name of a character in the Jili movie? Sounds so good!
——Wei Lai and Ji Li are from the same company, and they were both in the group photo taken by the crew two days ago. I can understand that they know each other, but why is Brother Feng Cheng also there?
——It seems that the melon I ate was real? The original male lead was replaced due to some mischief, and now Feng Cheng is the lead actor in the movie?
——Making trouble? Why is Tsai doing something weird? It’s only been a few days since we last met, what did I miss?
——Please don’t talk about other artists under Jilibaby’s comments! Be careful of provoking a fight!
Ji Li saw the direction of the comments and felt vaguely worried.
Cai Yishu was replaced just two days ago. Will his Weibo post at this moment cause trouble for Feng Cheng?
Ji Li hesitated for a while, and then he found that the number of his reposts suddenly increased a lot. He clicked on it and saw that it was Feng Cheng who forwarded it carelessly.
"That's right, the three of us are acting in a movie together, please pay more attention to us in the future!"
Not only that, he also followed Ji Li's Weibo directly.
Upon seeing this, Ji Li immediately clicked to follow back.
The next second, Feng Cheng, who was surfing online, took the initiative to send a private message: Ji Li, if the comments mention Cai Yishu and cause a big fuss, don't worry about it, my public relations team will handle it. If this has affected you, I would like to apologize here first.
Ji Li was a little surprised by the other party's explicit responsibility, and quickly replied: I was inconsiderate, I should have discussed it with you before sending the photos.
Feng Cheng replied: What does it matter? If you don't post a photo, I will. I am an artist of Lixing Culture, and teacher Qin Li personally selected me to play the male lead, so I am very confident. If Tsai dares to make trouble, we have plenty of ways to suppress them.
yes.
It is completely reasonable for Qin Li to invite his own artists to perform in the projects he invested in. Even if they don't announce their collaboration privately right now, they will have to officially announce their roles after the film is finished.
Cai Yishu is completely in the wrong for the "replacement" this time, and he should not dare to cause trouble in the short term.
Ji Li felt relieved, said good night to Feng Cheng, and prepared to go to sleep.
…
It was almost one o'clock in the morning when the plane arrived in Haishi.
Qin Li closed the electronic script and rubbed his sore eyes. "Teacher Fang's second version of the script is well revised. The company can give some pointers on the film investment."
Qi An sat next to him and said, "That's great. We can start preparing for the preliminary work. How do you plan to choose the three core characters in the script?"
Fang Zhixing wrote a movie script. Upon seeing this, his long-time partner, director Yao Chuan, decided to switch careers and try his luck in the film industry... So, they approached Qin Li.
The latter thought the script was good and planned to invest and serve as the chief producer, so he had some say in the casting of the script.
"As for the villain character, you can contact Yifei's agent tomorrow and ask them if they are willing to take it." Qin Li already had this idea when he was reading the script.
"Yuan Yifei?" Qi An was a little surprised and said what he was thinking, "He has always played positive roles, so he may not accept this villain role."
Qin Li had a good eye. "If he wants to change his career, this is a great opportunity."
Yuan Yifei is one of the few actors who has both popularity and strength, but some people always ignore his true strength because of his popularity.
Since his debut, Yuan Yifei has been staying in his comfort zone to create roles. Now he is in urgent need of an "unconventional" image to break the deadlock of stagnation.
"I see. I'll ask tomorrow. What about the other two main characters? Do you have any ideas?"
"I want to select new faces who haven't entered the film industry yet..." Qin Li paused, a look of scrutiny flashing in his eyes, "Forget it, I'll talk about it in detail when I meet Director Yao and the others in a couple of days."
"OK."
Qin Li put down the tablet and took out his personal mobile phone. A Weibo post popped up on the screen, attracting his attention.
Qin Li clicked into Weibo and saw the new content and photos posted by Ji Li at a glance - the background of the photo was a hot pot restaurant, and the ingredients on the table and the Jiugong spicy pot were indeed very stimulating to the taste buds.
But Qin Li instinctively set his eyes on the person.
Feng Cheng, who was very outgoing, surrounded Ji Li from behind with a bright look on his face and made a cool gesture. Wei Lai, holding a bottle of Coke, also stood very close to Ji Li.
The young man was pushed in the middle by them, his smile charming and warm.
As Qin Li looked at him, his gaze unconsciously became deeper.
"Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?" Qi An asked casually while looking at the deserted street.
He actually didn't expect to get an answer from the other party, because according to his friend's personality, he would not eat at this time.
But in the next second, the man next to him uttered a few words for the first time.
"...Hot pot, nine-grid style."
