Chapter 565: Not stupid or deaf, not a family father
"Looking for them?"
Tian Hong reluctantly glanced at Da Mimi and Liu Feifei, who were hanging on the wire and wearing gorgeous clothes with fluttering sleeves.
"When we were filming Master Mei, we discussed the role of the female lead with Liu Feifei's mother, but it was later given to Jiang Ziyi, which made it look quite awkward. Husband, why don't you talk to them..."
Director Chen's face was filled with an unhappy expression: "I think you are not considering Liu Feifei, but Da Mimi, right?"
After hearing what Director Chen said, Tian Hong's expression changed slightly.
A few years ago, Director Chen made a movie called "Search". At the beginning, Da Mimi was scheduled to play the third female role. However, because Da Mimi had just become very famous at that time, she was a little arrogant and too ambitious. As a result, Tian Hong caught her late for another film and fired her from the crew.
After the incident, he told reporters that Da Mimi was unprofessional and even threatened to ban Da Mimi from the film industry, forcing Da Mimi to join the Hong Kong industry for two years.
That's why Da Mimi whispered in Fang Yu's ear before, asking Fang Yu to replace Director Chen.
"That's just the way it is in this circle. There's no grudge that can't be resolved. Face is something you have to let go of when it's time to let it go."
Director Chen spoke with great sincerity.
Should you let go of your pride? Why don't you let go?
Tian Hong complained in her heart, but said, "It's not a matter of face. They are at most small shareholders of Youguo Games. How much influence can they have on Fang Yu? I still think it's better to go to Fang Yu directly."
"If it really doesn't work, I'll talk to Yu Dan alone tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Director Chen looked at the shy Tian Hong meaningfully.
"Many times, pillow talk is more effective than anything else."
Tian Hong looked surprised: "You mean, Fang and them..."
Director Chen looked at Tian Hong with amusement: "You really didn't see that?"
"When we were filming 'Master Mei', wasn't it you who recommended Sun Piaoliang to me for the second male lead?"
The panic in Tian Hong's eyes flashed away, the corner of her mouth twitched, and she didn't respond.
"Okay, I'll go talk to them later."
After saying that, Tian Hong turned around as if nothing had happened, greeted her son who was standing next to her as punishment, and walked towards the dressing room.
Seeing the backs of Tian Hong and her son leaving, Director Chen opened his folding fan with a swish, sat down on the recliner leisurely, waving the fan, and hummed a line from "The Golden Branch".
"If you are not stupid or deaf, you won't be a family father~~~"
He raised his eyebrow and glanced at the confused young man standing beside him.
"Hey, Xiao Zhang, right? If you really can't grasp the meaning of an 'expected surprise'... then surprise me... surprise me to see the light!"
Director Chen folded his folding fan with a snap and pointed at the bewildered young man next to him.
Fresh Meat: ???
What day?
——
"Huh~ I'm finally done. This outfit is so tiring. Can you help me loosen the corset first?"
Liu Feifei, wearing a light yellow ancient costume, bent over in front of the makeup mirror and tilted her head to take off her earrings. The makeup artist and assistant behind her were busy removing her makeup and changing her clothes. Five or six people in the dressing room were busy serving her.
This is the outfit Chang Xi wore when she was still the Moon Goddess. It looks relaxed and easy, but it is actually very complicated.
Inside was a long gown with a plain moon-colored lining, and the back was made of light dark blue gauze with dark gold patterns.
The robe has wide sleeves and hangs down three inches to the ground. The cuffs and lapels are embroidered with broken hibiscus branches sewn with gold thread.
The skirt is a heavily pleated horse-faced skirt, the inner layer is light silver, and the outer layer is covered with a light smoke purple gauze skirt.
She wore a double-breasted half-sleeve with a moon-shaped pattern on the outside. The sides of the half-sleeve were inlaid with folded cloud patterns with extremely fine gold and silver threads, which echoed the soft satin belt around her waist, which was tied with tassels and jade necklaces.
The belt around the waist looked like soft satin from the outside, but underneath the long gown there was a hard corset that could make the waist at least two inches thinner. After putting it on, one could not even breathe.
"Did Da Mimi do that on purpose when she was sparring just now? Doesn't she know how to fight? Luckily you reacted quickly, otherwise you would have been hurt again."
A short-haired ordinary woman who was loosening Liu Feifei's waist belt complained.
After hearing this, Liu Feifei pursed her lips and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.
She didn't know why Da Mimi had become such a different person in such a short time. Before, when playing badminton, she could suppress her opponent, but now no matter what the occasion, she seemed to be suppressed by the opponent.
However, I seem to have become stronger inexplicably. I am much stronger than before in the gym, both aerobic and anaerobic.
During boxing training a few days ago, I actually kicked the coach's hand target away with one kick!
It's so weird.
"Cici, we're going to have a barbecue with Yueyue tonight. Do you want me to bring you some grilled enoki mushrooms to satisfy your craving?"
The short-haired ordinary woman took off her corset and said casually.
Liu Feifei's eyes lit up, her eyes were pure, and she looked exactly like Ning Yu. "Really? Okay. By the way, Xiaoxin, I have enough space here, how about we have a barbecue party? You guys always get together, but I'm not included."
"You're talking as if we didn't take you with us on purpose." Pu Nu snorted, "No way, it's so cold, we don't want to be freezing outside like a fool."
"We're going to eat in the store."
"Where are you planning to eat?" Liu Feifei asked curiously.
"There's a restaurant exploration host on his platform called Daoyuetuan. Last time, he posted a video exploring a barbecue restaurant in Haixi. Here, that's it."
The ordinary girl with short hair clicked on the video and glanced at Liu Feifei.
Liu Feifei rolled her eyes and asked, "How about I go with you?"
Pu Nu was startled and hit Liu Feifei: "I'm going to kill you. If Sister Mingmei finds out, won't she kill me?"
Liu Feifei hugged Pu Nu's waist and acted coquettishly: "My mother won't know. I'm wearing sunglasses and a mask. You guys can book a private room. You're my best friend, and you won't help me with this little thing? I'm angry!"
"Bah! Don't you even look at yourself? Wear sunglasses and a mask so no one can recognize you? What if the paparazzi take your picture? Sister Mingmei won't see? Aren't you destroying my job?"
Pu Nu skillfully took off Liu Feifei's headdress and remained unmoved.
Liu Feifei apparently has a better relationship with her assistant than she does with most celebrities.
In fact, this is also the norm for celebrities. Many domestic entertainment online articles always write that so-and-so and so-and-so are good friends. In fact, at most, they are colleagues with relatively good relationships.
It is rare for celebrities to make real friends.
Most of the friends that celebrities often hang out with in private are not celebrities, but other practitioners in this circle.
For example, stylists, cameramen, screenwriters, lighting, action directors, etc.
There are even outsiders.
They appear to be very affectionate sisters and brothers on screen, but in reality they may not even be as familiar with each other as they are with each other's agents.
This situation is not entirely due to competition among celebrities.
What many people don’t understand is that a “star”, in a sense, is not a person, but a product, a product image created by a large team of dozens or even hundreds of people.
Therefore, in their daily work, the people celebrities deal with the most are not other celebrities, but the behind-the-scenes team. Even if the celebrities come forward in person to discuss cooperation, they may be dealing with members of the other party's behind-the-scenes team.
This is how people are. Whoever you interact with the most in daily life is more likely to become your friend.
At least Liu Feifei thinks Xiaoxin is her true friend, a much better friend than those so-called "friends in the circle".
"Oh, forget it. I'm still alone in this strange city."
Liu Feifei pouted, sat back in the chair, and pulled the bracelet down from her fair arm.
Seeing that the makeup artist had gone out to get something and was no longer around, Xiaoxin muttered quietly, "Alone? Haha, I wonder who didn't come back last night."
"By the way, let me remind you, Da Mimi is not a good person. Don't get too close to her."
Liu Feifei, who was in Ning Yu's personality, blushed instantly and kept spitting.
Now she herself still didn't understand what the other party's emotions were, and she didn't know why at that time, she no longer took the initiative to close her feelings.
She believes that she really loves the charming Liu Feifei.
But now, this love seems to have become very confusing.
I can see, hear and feel everything you do with him.
The bitterness, jealousy, and anger of being betrayed by her partner, mixed with her own shame and desire, made her feel like the husband who was lying down and pretending to be asleep in Ai Muyi's No. 575 Middle School.
In this situation, she actually felt that her blockage was even stronger.
What is this?
Chlorine fetish?
Ning Yu, in her innocent state, had no idea what was wrong with her.
"Knock knock knock" there was a knock on the door.
Hearing the knock on the door, Ning Yu's body trembled, and she broke free from the shameful state she had just been in. She put her hand on her chest and took two deep breaths, then said to the person outside the door: "Come in!"
"Feifei, can you please not disturb me?"
Tian Hong, wearing a new purple cheongsam and with a smile on her face, opened the door and walked in with a dignified manner.
But people who knew her could see that the smile on her face was somewhat forced.
"Sister Hong?" Ning Yu really didn't expect it to be Tian Hong. She quickly stood up, tucked the hair around her ears, and felt a little at a loss.
What is she here for?
Although there was no real grudge between the two parties, director Chen rejected the role on the grounds that "Winter Queen is a famous actress in Xinhao, extraordinary and heroic, dares to love and hate, and is not a vase." It is impossible to say that there was no grudge.
Seeing Tian Hong come in, the assistant hurried over to get some water.
"Just do your thing, just do your thing." Tian Hong quickly reached out and pushed Liu Feifei back into the chair. "I just came to see you. I noticed before that this outfit is really beautiful."
"Really? Are you okay?" Ning Yu smiled politely, "I still think Sister Hong's Chang'e is more beautiful. When I was a kid, I watched Sunshine and Zhu Ganglie and was instantly fascinated by her."
Poor kid, you don’t have to speak if you can’t.
What do you mean by childhood? Are you calling me old?
The old saying is indeed true, two people can't be two different if they sleep in the same bed. No wonder you are having an affair with Fang Yu.
Tian Hong's mouth twitched slightly, but she still maintained a smile, with an expression of deep regret.
"Back then, I didn't have the same conditions as you do now. It was summer when we were filming, and the crew didn't wash Chang'e's costume for two weeks, saying it would affect the filming progress."
"In the end, it was almost stinking. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I took it back and washed it myself."
"Really?" Ning Yu's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief.
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Tian Hong suddenly reached out and handed Liu Feifei a paper bag with THE GINZA printed on it.
"I remember your original notice was for three days, but now it's already a week. I was worried you didn't bring enough skincare products, so I got you a set."
Ning Yu couldn't help but be stunned, and quickly waved her hands: "No, no, no, I still have some, Sister Hong, you are too polite."
Seeing Ning Yu refuse, Tian Hong directly handed the water to her assistant Xiao Xin who had already brought it back.
"Fei Fei, I have something to tell you, so..."
Tian Hong looked at Xiaoxin and the makeup artist hesitantly, wanting to say something.
Shin-chan immediately understood the situation and pulled the makeup artist out of the dressing room, closing the door behind him.
"Sister Hong, what's going on? Why are you so mysterious?"
There were only two people left in the room, and Ning Yu immediately felt a little embarrassed. She picked up the bottle of water to cover it up and laughed dryly.
"Fei Fei, Brother Kai was wrong in what he said back then. I want to apologize to you on his behalf. He's a stubborn person, so don't take it to heart."
Tian Hong said softly.
Seeing Tian Hong apologizing to her, Ning Yu suddenly became a little flustered.
"Look at what you said, Sister Hong, what did Director Chen say back then? I've completely forgotten."
Tian Hong's eyes flickered and she smiled: "That's good. I originally wanted to talk to you about this, but for so many years, there has been no opportunity for cooperation. Otherwise, the misunderstanding would have been resolved long ago, don't you think?"
Ning Yu was confused and had no idea what Tian Hong wanted to say, so she could only smile awkwardly.
"As you know, The Legend of the Demon Fox has wrapped filming, and Brother Kai has already started planning for his next film. It's also a big production, set against the backdrop of the Wu-Yue conflict. Are you interested in the role of Xi Shi?"
"She's the main female character, and the story revolves around Xi Shi."
Tian Hong emphasized it again at the end.
Ning Yu's face was full of question marks.
Xi Shi?
Looking for me to invite you to act?
"Um...Sister Hong, thank you and Director Chen. I'm not refusing, but you have to ask my mother about this."
No matter what, she is also a top-tier actress. Ning Yu can handle this situation easily and she seems embarrassed and tucks her hair up.
"I just wanted to ask for your personal opinion."
Tian Hong stared at Liu Feifei.
In the end, she couldn't get over the hurdle of face and decided to go to Liu Feifei first. If Liu Feifei could handle it herself, there would be no need to go to Da Mimi.
Ning Yu was a little anxious when Tian Hong looked at her. She said, "It depends on the role and the script. Xi Shi is one of the four beauties. I'm afraid I can't play her well. Yu Ji was scolded for a long time before."
"Of course I'd love to act in Director Chen's play, but there shouldn't be a script yet, right? When the script is out, I'll come to you and take a look. What do you think?"
Tian Hong's eyes flickered, and she smiled. "As long as you agree, that's good. The three male protagonists in this play should all be movie emperors, and they all have connections with Xi Shi. It's basically a movie with a strong female lead."
"Actually, this is a subject that Brother Kai has always wanted to shoot, and it's also the film we planned to submit for an Oscar in 1964 or 1965."
Tian Hong raised her chin with a very proud attitude.
After hearing what Tian Hong said, Ning Yu actually became interested.
Up to now, she has not had a single film in the film industry that was praised for her acting skills.
In the past few days, Ning Yu has also seen Director Chen's ability to train actors. He feels that maybe his acting skills can really take off this time?
"Okay, Sister Hong, please let me know as soon as the script comes out."
Ning Yu bit her lip and nodded.
Seeing this, Tian Hong smiled slightly and said casually, "Oh, by the way, there's one more thing. Didn't Xiangkong return to China? He might have a role in this movie in the future."
"Although it's not an important role, I might have one or two scenes with you."
"In order to better cooperate with each other in the future and get to know each other better, can you help Xiangkong get a role in this game?"
Ning Yu's body trembled and she looked at Tian Hong in surprise.
"Since you have no objection, I'll go back first. Please remember this."
Tian Hong felt a little embarrassed when being stared at, so she looked away, turned around, and strode out of the dressing room.
No, don’t go, I haven’t agreed yet!
Ning Yu opened her mouth but didn't say anything. She looked at Tian Hong's back and bit her lip.
Want me to ask "him" for a role?
