One hundred and six:
Ji Qingzhou's new play this time is a movie. The director is quite famous and the script is also pretty good. Unlike other crews that first decide on the actors and then raise investment, the investment for this play has already been raised. Everything is ready, only the actors are missing. Therefore, after finalizing the leading role, the crew started filming directly.
This movie tells the story of two young people chasing their dreams. It has two male protagonists. Zhou Chengfeng had found out for him before that the other male protagonist should be Li Ao, who was nominated for the Golden Osmanthus Award for Best Supporting Actor last year but did not win. This combination is also a common combination in today's film industry. Find a popular actor to drive the box office, and at the same time, find a powerful actor to play with him in order to balance the acting skills.
Ji Qingzhou had no objection to this. After all, most of his works have not been broadcast yet. Compared with his acting skills, his popularity is indeed more prominent now. It is normal for the director to put him in the category of popular actors. However, what surprised Ji Qingzhou was that when the camera started, he did not see Li Ao, but he did not think much about it, just thinking that Li Ao was stuck. After communicating with the director, he changed his costume and started his own filming.
Ji Qingzhou clapped twice, but Li Ao did not come. Instead, he waited for someone he did not expect - Fang Yaoxuan.
He looked at the person in front of him in surprise, listening to Fang Yaoxuan's every word, "I'm sorry, I had an event two days ago, so I joined the crew late. I'm your partner in this play, I play He Hua." He even smiled and said to Ji Qingzhou, "It's a pleasure to work with you."
Ji Qingzhou unconsciously tightened his grip on the script. Happy cooperation? How could the two of them have a happy cooperation!
He didn't waste time talking to Fang Yaoxuan, and turned to find the director, "Director Wu, wasn't Li Ao playing the role of He Hua before? Why did they change the actor?"
Director Wu said, "Oh!" "Yes, they changed the actor. Li Ao was originally chosen, but the investor recommended Fang Yaoxuan. Yaoxuan has good acting skills and is very popular, so I agreed."
"But you didn't tell me about this."
"It's just these few days. I was thinking that he would join the group soon, so I planned to talk to you after he joined. It doesn't make any difference anyway. What, do you have any objection to this matter?"
Ji Qingzhou certainly had his objections. The two people he least wanted to see in his life were Luo Yuxin and Fang Yaoxuan. However, now Fang Yaoxuan wanted to act with him. Ji Qingzhou felt that what was coming could not be avoided. When filming "A Page of Love Poems", Fang Yaoxuan had thought about acting with him, but was stopped by Chu Cheng. Unexpectedly, this time, his wish came true.
At that moment, he immediately thought about what price he would pay if he terminated the contract at this time. This was not in his exemption clause, so it was equivalent to a breach of contract, and liquidated damages were indispensable. At the same time, if he terminated the contract at this time, it was only because of his personal likes and dislikes. Director Wu would definitely be dissatisfied with him. If this matter got out, it would also ruin his reputation in the film industry. He had just entered the film industry, and this was his first movie as the male lead. He didn't want to give up easily because of Fang Yaoxuan.
Ji Qingzhou felt angry. He had signed the contract first and was ready to film the movie. Why did Fang Yaoxuan have to interfere? He had been avoiding and tolerating Fang Yaoxuan, but Fang Yaoxuan kept coming to him like a fly that couldn't be driven away. So, why should he keep tolerating him and keep giving in to him?
In this anger, he instantly overturned the idea of terminating the contract. He had done nothing wrong, so why should he lose his money and reputation for Fang Yaoxuan? Even if someone had to leave, it should be Fang Yaoxuan who left.
"No," Ji Qingzhou replied calmly, "I'm just a little surprised, so I asked you."
"Oh, that's good. Yao Xuan has joined the crew now. We may start filming your scenes with him tomorrow. You can go over your lines in private and get them mixed up. Then you can try to get them through in one take."
"Okay." Ji Qingzhou nodded.
He returned to his rest area. Fang Yaoxuan was still there. Seeing him, he raised one corner of his lips and asked him, "Did you get the result you wanted?"
Ji Qingzhou sat down in his chair and ignored him.
Fang Yaoxuan took the opportunity to sit down beside him without any hesitation, "Qingzhou, we haven't seen each other for a long time, and you have become increasingly cold towards me."
Ji Qingzhou stood up and moved his chair to the side, and Fang Yaoxuan stuck to it like a dog-skin plaster. When Qian came back from buying water, he saw this scene. He hurried over and inserted himself between Fang Yaoxuan and Ji Qingzhou, and said with a smile, "Brother Fang, why are you here?"
"I'll play He Hua." Fang Yao's declaration was concise and to the point.
Qian was startled. He looked at Ji Qingzhou standing beside him, looking down at the script without saying a word. He instinctively felt that he must be in a bad mood, so he said, "Brother Ji, Brother Zhou wants to see you. Let's go over."
Ji Qingzhou said "hmm", Qian and Fang Yao said goodbye, and followed.
Fang Yaoxuan stood there, and his assistant said unhappily, "How dare he come up with such a perfunctory excuse?"
"It's okay," Fang Yaoxuan said calmly, "We are already in the same crew, how can we make excuses?"
He looked at Ji Qingzhou's back, wondering what Chu Cheng's reaction would be if he knew that he and Ji Qingzhou were in the same crew. It was strange. This time the investment was not from their company, but from his uncle's company. His uncle's company had nothing to do with their family. It was fine that Zhou Chengfeng, an agent, couldn't see that he had any relationship with him. Chu Cheng should have known about it. How could he allow Ji Qingzhou to take this role? Or did he think that Ji Qingzhou could act in a role related to their family's investment, but he just couldn't act with him?
