Director Liu thought that Mr. Gong was not that kind of person at all. If he really had that kind of relationship, he could definitely help Qian Muchue start a movie. He was not without the ability to do so. Qi Chen Film and Television was very wealthy.
Although Director Liu couldn't figure out the relationship between Qian Muchue and President Gong, it didn't stop him from signing film and television contracts with Qian Muchue based on good treatment, and even the hotel provided a business king-size room.
Qian Muchue had no idea about these things in advance, so when the staff brought the contract for her to sign and saw that the salary was 1 million, she was very surprised. The crew was so rich. She came to this play just to make an appearance in Director Liu's movie, and she didn't care about the salary.
She wasn't even a big star, and her role wasn't many, so she was estimated to be making only tens of thousands of yuan. This pay suddenly increased by dozens of times, so Qian Muchue decided to act even better to live up to the 1 million yuan salary.
To this end, Qian Muchue practiced the expressions of the heroine Xia Qiao in front of the hotel mirror every day, refining her expressions bit by bit. Of course, this is a story for later.
Qian Muchue arrived early with the crew's car. After a while, the actors who played the male and female protagonists arrived. The female protagonist Xia Qiao was played by Liu Xi, a female star with a very high popularity. Liu Xi has always been good-looking since her debut and has many fans who like her for her looks. She is a TV drama star. She is 30 years old this year and is working hard to transform herself.
The actor who plays the male lead Chu Tianqi is the powerful actor Zheng Feng, who is handsome, nearly 40 years old, but well maintained and looks only 30 years old. He has collaborated with Director Liu many times and has always had a good reputation in the circle.
"Muxue, come here." Director Liu called out to Qian Muxue who was not far away.
"Director Liu." Qian Muchue hurried over and called out obediently, noticing the two protagonists beside Director Liu.
"I asked you to come here to introduce you. This is Zheng Feng and Liu Xi, who play the male and female protagonists. Come and watch their performance on set." Director Liu said with a smile, pointing at Qian Muchue and saying to Zheng Feng and Liu Xi, "Her name is Qian Muchue, she plays Xiao Qiao Xia. She's a new actress, so please take good care of her."
"Hello, Teacher Zheng Feng, hello, Teacher Liu Xi. My name is Qian Muchue, a new actor. Thank you for your guidance." Qian Muchue greeted them obediently.
Zheng Feng and Liu Xi have been in the circle for so long and are both smart people. Since Director Liu introduced them personally, of course they had to give them face. Both of them encouraged Qian Muchue.
Qian Muchue didn’t know if it was an illusion, but she felt that Liu Xi seemed hostile to her.
Zheng Feng didn't have any feelings for Qian Muchue, she was just a young junior. Since Director Liu introduced her personally, he had to give her some advice in the theater. Moreover, Qian Muchue was a young actress and had no conflict of interest with him, so he treated Qian Muchue very well.
On the other hand, Liu Xi was not so fond of Qian Muchue. Originally, Director Liu had discussed with her about letting her play the role of Qiao Xia alone, but later he decided to find a new actor to play Qiao Xia in high school. What did he mean? Wasn't it because he thought she was too old to play a high school student?
Actresses hate it most when people talk about their age, and those like Liu Xi who have always relied on their looks to make a living are even more so. Seeing Qian Muchue's face full of collagen, Liu Xi finds it hard to like her.
However, in front of Director Liu, Liu Xi still spoke a few words to Qian Muchue very cordially.
After getting to know each other, Director Liu talked to the two main actors about the scene they were going to shoot today, and Qian Muchue left tactfully.
Today we mainly filmed the scene where the male and female protagonists had a dispute at work, so we stayed indoors all day and the actors were relatively happy.
After all, it was winter, and it was not easy for the actresses to film in the cold wind wearing summer clothes with their thighs and arms exposed.
Liu Xi and Zheng Feng are both professional actors, and their scenes in the morning were basically done in one take.
At lunch time, Liu Xi went back to her nanny car to rest. Zheng Feng was very down-to-earth and asked his assistant to bring a box lunch to eat on the set.
Seeing Qian Muchue sitting aside with a box lunch, looking a little lonely, Zheng Feng waved to her to come over and eat together.
"Didn't your company arrange an assistant for you?" Zheng Feng asked with a smile. Generally, artists would have an assistant to help with daily chores.
"Teacher Zheng, I haven't signed with a company. I'm still a student." Qian Muchue opened the lunch box. There were two meat dishes and one vegetable dish. It looked pretty good.
"From the acting department?"
"No, I'm from the Finance Department of University A."
Hearing this, Zheng Feng raised his eyebrows. Judging from her external conditions, Qian Muchue was the kind of person who was chosen by God to work hard. The Finance Department of University A was also well-known in China, which meant that Qian Muchue had good grades. She was both beautiful and talented.
"I helped a friend shoot a short film before. Director Liu thought I performed well in it and gave me an audition opportunity. I am very honored to work with Director Liu and all the teachers." Seeing Zheng Feng's doubts, Qian Muchue explained modestly.
Ever since using the bone-shaping and soul-nourishing water and body-refining techniques, Qian Muchue has had a very good appetite. The taste of the lunch boxes on the crew cannot be compared with those at home, but Qian Muchue still eats them with relish. If it weren't for face, Qian Muchue would have wanted to get a box too.
Zheng Feng was very envious of Qian Muchue eating. The good thing about being young was that unlike him, he didn't dare to eat too much of many things. He only touched the vegetarian dishes in the lunch box and hardly any meat.
Zheng Feng's assistant was shocked when he saw Qian Muchue finish all the food. It was the first time he saw a female star eat so much. Aren't female stars nowadays little fairies who can be full after just two bites?
In the next few days, Qian Muchue watched the rivalry between Liu Xi and Zheng Feng on the set. When she had time, she would also help the crew with some things. She became very familiar with the crew members.
On this day, it was finally Qian Muchue's turn to act. Qian Muchue played Qiao Xia in high school. Chu Tianqi in high school was played by another young and handsome Guan Yang. Unlike Qian Muchue, Guan Yang had debuted for two years. He was born in a boy group and had a certain number of fans. The company sent him to Director Liu's crew mainly to show his face on the big screen.
Qian Muchue's scenes have not been filmed yet because they are waiting for Guan Yang to join the crew. Unlike Zheng Feng, Guan Yang has a more flamboyant personality and likes to act like a big shot. After knowing that his opponent, actress Qian Muchue, is a nobody in the entertainment industry, he has always been condescending.
Qian Muchue had seen all sorts of monsters in the entertainment industry in her previous life. There was no need to take Guan Yang, who was just a half-baked guy, seriously. However, this guy repeatedly hinted at her to go to his room to discuss the script, which really made her feel a little disgusted.
The main scene of Qian Muchue's play is on campus. The first scene is Qiao Xia in high school wearing a school uniform skirt, watching Chu Tianqi play basketball. When Chu Tianqi made a three-pointer, Qiao Xia's face turned red with excitement. This is the person she has a crush on, and he is so outstanding.
This scene mainly focuses on the girl's secret love, which is inexplicably sweet and happy. Qian Muchue immersed herself in the role. When she saw Chu Tianqi score a goal, she cheered happily with everyone else, her cheeks flushed with excitement, and her hands clenched into fists. She discovered this action when she watched Liu Xi's performance on the set these days. Whenever there was an emotional scene, Liu Xi would make this action. This should be her habit.
Qian Muchue felt that since Liu Xi brought this habit into her role, Qiao Xia should have had this habit in high school.
Qian Muchue's scenes were filmed very quickly, but Guan Yang's basketball skills were really bad. It took him many attempts to shoot the ball before he made it. Qian Muchue could only stand in the cold wind and watch him shoot. It was too cold.
As soon as the director called cut, Qian Muchue quickly grabbed her down jacket and wrapped herself up, then took a sip of the ginger soup she had prepared in the morning. This was the downside of not having an assistant, as she had to prepare everything in advance.
On the other side, Guan Yang had his assistant bring him clothes and a thermos cup.
Guan Yang's role as Chu Tianqi in high school is mainly responsible for being handsome, and all the emotions are on Qiao Xia. It basically focuses on Qiao Xia's psychological changes. The filming on campus is handled by Deputy Director Song, and after the filming is completed, it will be shown to Director Liu.
"I didn't realize that Comrade Mu Xue's acting is so good, even better than in the previous audition." Director Liu said to Director Song beside him.
"Well, this little girl is very talented and has a strong sense of camera. She can basically get it right in one take." Director Song told the truth.
"My eyes are sharp, I picked her out right away." Director Liu was pleased with himself.
…
Qian Muchue didn't have many scenes, and the filming was completed with Guan Yang in just two days.
The crew was very considerate and prepared a bouquet of flowers for her and Guan Yang respectively, and held a small wrap-up ceremony.
Qian Muchue was still adapting to the life on the crew, but she missed Grandma Qian and Qian Xiaoya, so she bought a ticket back to City A early in the morning.
Before leaving, I exchanged WeChat with Director Liu, and I hope I can contact her again if there is a suitable role in the future.
