"Uncle Yuan, isn't this too much?" Gu An asked.
How can it be like picking up money? I don’t know anything about it, but I can earn hundreds of thousands of yuan in just one or two months of filming.
Yuan Wei laughed and said, "Not much, in fact, it's very little. If it were a top star, the amount could be ten times higher."
Gu An was shocked. Once he made enough money, his mother wouldn't have to go to work anymore.
As if sensing his hesitation, Yuan Wei spoke, "Put the contract away for now. Don't rush to sign it. Take it home and discuss it with your family. If you have any objections, tell me. We'll strive to satisfy both parties."
When it comes to the people you like, be sincere.
"Okay." Gu An was not pretentious.
The nanny car drove into a large Lianshan Manor. From the middle of the mountain, the entire manor area was above.
Yuan Wei explained to Gu An as they walked, "Most of the film's scenes were shot in Jiangcheng. The owner of this manor lives in the capital all year round, and he lent it to the crew as a favor. It saved me a lot of money, haha."
Even more extravagant and wealthy than the Lin family! Such a large manor was just abandoned and left idle.
This is Gu An’s most intuitive feeling.
"Hey, does anyone know which top star it is that Director Yuan needs to go pick her up in person?" Xiao Luan, a popular first-line actress, said nonchalantly while admiring her new nail design out of boredom.
"Wu Fan, do you know?"
"I don't know." As a popular idol, the young and handsome Wu Fan shook his head with certainty.
The leading male character cannot be too old. If he has too much experience, he will not be able to act out the youthful, naive and yet tenacious demeanor of a young man.
Because the eyes of a mature person are more or less tainted with the frost of time.
"As far as I know, there are only two or three talented people of Wu Fan's age in the entire entertainment industry. Wu Fan, Liang Kun and Zhan Zhan." Film queen Yang Minmin frowned and spoke lightly.
"No matter who he is, he is a big shot. Everyone here is a top star. Why should we wait for him?" Ji Meir snorted coldly.
In fact, they had just arrived, and half of them had not arrived yet, so there was no question of who was waiting for whom.
It’s just that Ji Meir was unhappy that Director Yuan actually made the trip in person.
"You know Director Yuan's character. He'd visit me three times to secure a role. Why would you talk bad about me behind my back?"
Ji Meir: "Zhao Yingying, what does this have to do with you?"
"Just telling the truth." Zhao Yingying chuckled.
It has long been known that the two of them don't get along with each other in the circle.
"Everyone, be quiet. Director Yuan is here." Film queen Chen Fenglan smiled brightly. She had the most seniority here.
"Sorry to have kept you all waiting!"
"We just arrived too. Director Yuan's younger brother is—"
Everyone looked at the boy, and their first impression was that he was handsome, with clear eyes mixed with a hint of shyness.
"Brother Gu An, please introduce yourself." Yuan Wei smiled.
"Hello everyone, my name is Gu An and I'm a senior in high school. I've never been involved in filming before. The sisters here and idol Wu Fan are my seniors, so please give me your guidance."
Gu An was neither humble nor overbearing. He occasionally followed the entertainment industry and had heard of most of the big-name stars there.
But he is not a fan, and his words do not have the eager excitement of fans meeting their idols.
Ji Meir curled her lips but the smile did not reach her eyes.
I thought it was a big bowl, but it turned out to be a student!
I don’t know what Director Yuan was thinking when he chose an amateur to play the leading male role!
Zhao Yingying: "Student Gu An, since you are in your third year of high school, do you have time to film? Will it affect your studies?"
Gu An raised his lips and said, "My study time is usually very tight, but I have already finished all the senior high school courses by myself. So it's okay to ask the teacher for a few days off occasionally."
"Wow~ awesome! We captured a top student!" Wu Fan's eyes lit up and he gave a thumbs up in praise.
He took two years off from school to film a movie, and his grades were terrible, so he hasn't even graduated from high school.
I have always hired a tutor to give me lessons in my spare time.
"Student Gu An, you have such good academic performance, so memorizing lines should be easy for you. I'm looking forward to your performance." Ji Meir said insincerely, waiting to see the joke.
"I will try my best to play the role well." Gu An scratched his head, smiled shyly and didn't explain much.
On the way, he flipped through the script and remembered every line clearly.
"Let's shoot the first scene today and see the effect." Yuan Wei clapped his hands and shouted loudly.
The stylist styles each actor.
Gu An plays the abandoned young master of a wealthy family who has been bullied by his thirteen sisters for a long time. He has a dull look in his eyes and a pale face.
He now has a rosy complexion and needs to be adjusted with makeup.
After putting on makeup and changing into wrinkled, shabby white clothes, it was as if she had returned to her previous life.
Yuan Wei carefully explained to Gu An the key points that needed to be paid attention to in the first scene, and waited until everyone was in their positions before starting.
"STAY BY!" He entered working mode in a second.
"ACTION!"
In the first scene, the abandoned young master played by Gu An is falsely accused by the fake young master played by Wu Fan of stealing his sisters' jewelry and selling it.
Gu An's face flushed and he firmly denied that he had stolen anything.
But the angry sisters were sure it was him and didn't give him a chance to explain.
Wu Fan stood on the second floor of the villa, looking down with a playful and malicious look that was totally unlike that of a teenager of his age. He coldly watched Gu An being beaten by the sisters in the living room downstairs.
The camera zooms in.
The six sisters at home were tired and left. Gu An bent over and lay on his side with his head in his arms. He counted silently for ten seconds before slowly stretching his body and getting up from the ground.
He brushed off the shoe prints on his shirt and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. The boy's sincere eyes were confused, helpless, and yet with a hint of stubbornness.
His expression was natural and smooth, and he portrayed the miserable appearance of the weak and framed young master, which deeply hurt everyone present.
“CUT!”
"Very good! Very beautiful!" Yuan Wei laughed, extremely satisfied.
"How is it? Not difficult, right?"
"Not bad." Gu An smiled slightly, and looked at Ji Meir with a cold look in his eyes.
She just slapped me, and it really hurt.
He wasn't sure whether this was a requirement of the performance or a mistake made by the actor being too emotionally involved, so he didn't ask Yuan Wei.
Because a good actor must be able to immerse himself deeply in the role in order to play it well.
It turns out that no money is easy to earn.
Ji Meir shuddered at Gu An's cold glance.
She did it on purpose just now.
He couldn't turn against the newcomer and took the opportunity to teach him a lesson secretly.
This is a common practice in the industry, and even if someone noticed it, they couldn't blame her. They would just say she was too immersed in the role.
"Everyone, take a break and prepare for the next scene." Yuan Wei estimated that if everything went well, they could shoot at least three more scenes throughout the afternoon.
......
At 6:30 in the afternoon, we finished filming four scenes and finished work.
"Student Gu An, are you tired?" Wu Fan greeted him in a friendly manner. After all, they were of the same age and had more topics to talk about.
"It's okay. It must be hard for you guys to be filming all day, right?"
"Yes, it's only a little easier than studying. Hahaha..."
"Hahaha." Gu An smiled. Reading is the easiest thing to do.
