Chapter 65 Helping the Director Select Actors
Lu Huaizhi did not return to the Lu family. He sent Jiang Ning home and returned to District 1.
We cannot start manufacturing weapons now, but this matter must be reported and talents in this area must be transferred to cooperate. On the other hand, we need to arrange for the artists to participate in the fourth episode of "Let's Travel Together" to ensure that the reserves of Gua Energy can be exchanged for at least two weapon blueprints.
In addition, Lu Huaizhi also wanted to see if there was any difference in the magnetic field data of the heroine Lin Mian, and what role it could play, so he naturally wanted to go back and do the experiment quickly.
When Lu Yanqing came back from the company in the evening, he heard that Lu Huaizhi did not come in even though he had arrived at the Lu family's door. He frowned, muttered a few words, sighed, but did not call to disturb him.
In the past few days, Jiang Ning went to the film and television city every day. She was glad that she didn't have many scenes. If she had more, she would have to follow the crew to the desert to shoot, where it was so dry that even wild animals would melt.
On the last day of filming, Jiang Ning met an acquaintance on the set.
"Jiang Hao? Are you an actor too?"
Jiang Ning was a little stunned when she saw Jiang Hao wearing a flowing furry ancient robe.
"It wasn't like that before, but it is now. I asked Miss Shen to send me in." Jiang Hao said gently.
Chen Shuyan is one of the investors of the crew. The director will not disagree if he sends someone in who does not play a major role.
He was no different from when he was Shen Shuyan's good boyfriend, but there seemed to be some subtle changes.
Because Jiang Hao didn't know whether he was still Chen Shuyan's boyfriend, and there were many people on the crew, Jiang Ning didn't ask too much, but just asked curiously.
"Are you playing the role of the spirit cat?"
Jiang Hao nodded.
"This character has a good personality. If I perform well, I won't have to rely on Miss Shen in the future, and I will also have a good resume to find a crew."
The character design of Lingmao is really good. The reason why this drama became so popular is not only because the actors have good acting skills, but also because the script is well written. Almost every character with a lot of roles has his or her own full character line, and there are also strange stories in it.
The civet cat played by Jiang Hao can be said to be the most tear-jerking ghost story in the script. In the script, the civet cat was originally just an ordinary cat. After being rescued by its owner, it has been living with its owner. When the city where it lived was attacked and the city was burned down, and its owner died, the civet cat did a lot of things to save its owner. Later, it was pulled into the world of ghost stories. If it could kill all the intruders, it could use these people's lives to save its owner.
In the end, the spirit cat was unable to bring itself to kill and only shared its life with its owner. At the moment the owner disappeared, the man and the cat reunited. The owner was relieved that the spirit cat remained kind and did not commit the sin of killing, so he disappeared with the spirit cat and turned into a key that could open the exit of the ghost story.
If this role is played well and the soul is injected into it, it will become a flesh-and-blood character, and it is not certain that it will become popular.
Jiang Hao obviously thought so, which is why he asked for this role.
After the two chatted for a few minutes, he said with a smile as they parted.
"I broke up with Miss Shen. This role is the breakup fee I asked Miss Shen for. I want to be famous enough to not have to worry about money. I want to pursue her as an equal."
In love, equal status is indeed very important. Jiang Ning, who had never been in a relationship, brought out a basket of theoretical knowledge and thought about it.
Perhaps because he was worried that the crew would make random guesses, Jiang Hao did not take the initiative to look for Jiang Ning while filming, and behaved like a stranger in front of others. Even Lin Mian, who often followed Jiang Ning on the crew, did not know that the two knew each other.
Jiang Ning's last scene was when he was trying to protect his teammates and leave them a way to escape, but was attacked and killed by a ghost.
This character, who was so delicate that tears would appear in his eyes when he bumped his head against the table before entering the world of ghost stories, was obviously more afraid of death and pain than any of his teammates. He died for his teammates, and before his death, he gave his teammates a bloody little bell, asking them to return to their original world and give it to her parents, saying that she could no longer be their daughter.
Jiang Ning's snow-white face was covered with bright red bloodstains. When her lively eyes closed, the eyes of the crew members also became moist. The whole studio was filled with a sad atmosphere. It was obvious that Jiang Ning's acting was good and everyone was drawn into her role.
"Card!"
The director rubbed his red eyes, looked at the monitor and called "Cut", finally pulling everyone out of the sad atmosphere.
Jiang Ning, who was lying on the ground, also opened his eyes, took the wet tissue handed to him by Lin Mian, and wiped the blood from his mouth.
"Jiang Ning performed very well. Here, a red envelope. Stay tonight. We're throwing a wrap-up party for you."
Jiang Ning took it, touched the thick red envelope, opened it and saw that there was indeed a lot of money. Then she heard that there was a wrap-up party prepared for her. Although it sounded good, Jiang Ning still looked over with caution.
[The director is so stingy. He stuffed so much money into my red envelope and even prepared a wrap-up party for me, the fifth female lead. Why does this feel so strange? The crew's boxed lunches are all affordable packages. How did he suddenly become so rich? Is the director trying to use some unspoken rules?]
These words made Lin Mian and others hold back their laughter. The director, who had just taken a sip of water, spat it out and looked at Jiang Ning dimly.
He is just a little frugal, but can he be called stingy?
"The red envelopes and the wrap-up banquet were all provided by President Jiang. President Jiang is coming tonight too. He has to be there just to give our producer some face."
[So it was Sister Jiang Qing who paid for it. That's fine. Even if the director wanted to take advantage of me, he wouldn't dare with Sister Jiang Qing around.]
When Jiang Ning heard that the money was all paid by Jiang Qing, a look of understanding and relief flashed across her face, but she also heard that the director was so angry that he vomited blood.
"Jiang Ning! I have a wife and children. Stop thinking about all sorts of things and slandering me for no reason."
"Director, what did you say? I didn't slander you." Jiang Ning looked at the director in confusion, complaining in his heart.
The director has a wife and children, but that doesn't stop him from keeping his first love's phone number, WeChat, and photos. Those photos are still in a private album, and he takes them out to look at them from time to time after a fight with his wife. Although the director didn't cheat, he's not a good man either.
The director wanted to clarify things, but his past was exposed. Facing the other actors' looks at him as a scumbag, he touched his sparse hair and felt like he wanted to become a monk.
"Yes, yes, I misunderstood you. There is another big director coming tonight, so don't be absent. Now go, I don't want to see you right now."
Jiang Ning looked at the director's haggard look, holding the red envelope, and was very puzzled.
Is the director experiencing a hormone imbalance? His emotions change so quickly.
director:"……"
In the evening, Jiang Ning came to Jiang Qingfa's address. When she entered, she did not see other actors in the crew. She only saw Jiang Qing, the director, and another middle-aged man. She felt that this wrap-up party was more and more strange.
If she hadn't been sure of Jiang Qing's character, she would have turned around and left.
Seeing Jiang Ning's caution, Jiang Qing pulled her to sit next to him, asked for a glass of juice for her, and said.
"The rest of the crew had to shoot Group B's night scene tonight, so they didn't come."
After that, Jiang Qing introduced the middle-aged man, "This is Director Li. We are currently planning to shoot a tribute film. I heard that you are very good at selecting actors, so I would like to ask you to help select the actors for the film."
Director Li was very famous, something Jiang Ning had heard of not long after arriving in this world, but...
"How could such a brilliant director not be able to choose the right person? He even needs help from a newcomer like me, who just entered the entertainment industry. Is Sister Jiang Qing kidding me?"
Having heard of Jiang Ning's unspeakable abilities, Director Li's eyes lit up differently when he really heard about it.
