Chapter 1716 Being an Extra
"No way! This girl is so powerful that even Deputy Director Zhang is no match for her?"
"Oh my god! This is too scary!"
“······”
"Thank you for letting me do that," Gu Ning said politely. Even though it was obvious that the other person's skills were not as good as hers, she still should be polite.
Hearing someone calling Lao Zhang "Deputy Director Zhang", Gu Ning secretly guessed the other person's identity, and he should be the deputy director of a certain bureau.
If this is the case, then the status is naturally not low.
However, few of the people living in "Century Tiancheng" have simple identities, because this is a villa area, and a villa costs tens of millions. People who can spend tens of millions to buy a house naturally have assets and status that are not ordinary people.
"I wonder what your name is, little girl?" asked Deputy Director Zhang.
"My name is Gu Ning," Gu Ning said.
"Judging from your age, you should still be a student!" asked Deputy Director Zhang.
"Yes, I just took the college entrance examination this year, and school will start in a few days." Gu Ning said.
Although everyone knew that Gu Ning was not very old, they couldn't help but sigh when they heard her say that she had just taken the college entrance examination. Wasn't she only 17 or 18 years old? At such a young age, she had such amazing skills. It was really incredible!
Because everyone starts school at a different age, those in the third year of high school are sixteen or seventeen, and some are eighteen or nineteen. Gu Ning started school relatively late, so after the third year of high school, he was nineteen years old.
Gu Ning's birthday is in May, but she never celebrated her 19th birthday. Since she had never celebrated it before, she simply forgot about it. It was only later when Chu Peihan and others asked her about her birthday that she remembered it, but it had already passed.
Chu Peihan suggested making up for it with her, but Gu Ning was busy at that time, so she refused and said that she could do it next time.
"You have such amazing skills, you must be studying in the police academy!" Deputy Director Zhang asked. Gu Ning was a good candidate, which made Deputy Director Zhang interested. If she went to the police academy, he wanted to recruit her.
Gu Ning also probably saw what Deputy Director Zhang was thinking, smiled and said, "No, I studied at Jingcheng University, majoring in economics and management."
Hearing this, Deputy Director Zhang was surprised: "Beijing University? So you are a top student! Is your family in business?"
Deputy Director Zhang felt that Gu Ning's family should be in business, and she would inherit the family business in the future. Otherwise, with such great skills, why didn't she go to police school but study business instead!
Of course, it doesn't mean you have to go to police school just because you have good skills. It's just that it's too difficult to find a job in today's society, and it would be a bit unreasonable if you don't develop your strengths.
"Yes!" Gu Ning responded.
After hearing this, Deputy Director Zhang understood and no longer felt that there was anything wrong with Gu Ning studying economics and management.
Perhaps, it was because of his family background that he learned martial arts for self-defense! Deputy Director Zhang was also very tactful and did not continue to ask about Gu Ning's family background.
"Little girl, do you run often?" asked Deputy Director Zhang.
"I go to Beijing, but not every day." Gu Ning said.
"If we meet again in the future, can you practice a few moves with me?" Deputy Director Zhang asked, his face full of anticipation.
It has been a long time since I had such a satisfying fight. Although he is from the special police force, and the SWAT officers in the force are all very skilled, there are not many of them who can compare to him. So, it is not satisfying to fight with them.
It's rare to meet someone with such good skills, so naturally I hope to practice with him.
"Okay! We'll meet again if there's a chance." Gu Ning didn't refuse, because there was no harm in practicing with others.
Deputy Director Zhang was happy to get Gu Ning's agreement.
"Okay, my last name is Zhang, you can just call me Uncle Zhang." Deputy Director Zhang said.
"Uncle Zhang," Gu Ning called out obediently.
Then, Deputy Director Zhang said goodbye without asking Gu Ning for his cell phone number or anything like that, because he felt it was inappropriate to ask for someone's contact information when they first met.
Since the other person has already agreed to him, he can just fight with her a few times if he meets her, get to know her better, and then ask for her contact information.
Although Gu Ning is young, he possesses such powerful skills that Deputy Director Zhang admires him very much. Moreover, Gu Ning's temperament is mature and steady, which makes Deputy Director Zhang not treat him as a child at all. Therefore, he would be happy if he could make friends with Gu Ning.
Because of the fight with Deputy Director Zhang, Gu Ning and the others were delayed for some time, so Gu Ning would not test Chu Peihan's skills for the time being. Anyway, they had time, so they went back first.
After packing up, we set off for the Shengshi Hotel.
When we arrived at Shengshi Hotel, it was already half past seven. We quickly had breakfast, which took only ten minutes, and then set off for Hengdian.
Although it was rush hour, Gu Ning and his friends took the ring road around the city. Although the road was much longer, there would be no traffic jams, so they would travel much faster.
But it is the suburbs after all, and there will still be some traffic jams before they reach the ring road, so even if they go fast, it will take nearly an hour.
But it's faster than walking in the city. If you walk in the city, you will get stuck in traffic for more than half an hour, and it will take almost two hours to reach the destination.
At half past eight, Gu Ning and others arrived at the shooting location in Hengdian, but this time they changed the location. Today they were shooting a street scene, and Hao Ran and others' supporting roles were also among the people, playing passers-by.
However, for Gu Ning's sake, Lu Zhan arranged several scenes for Hao Ran and others to appear and have lines, including the scene where the people praised the heroine. Here, Hao Ran and Zhang Tianping were given shots and lines.
In fact, this kind of role is very rare for extras, and usually they just appear as backs or faces.
As for Chu Peihan, she has more scenes than Haoran and Zhang Tianping. She is the daughter of a certain minister and is also in the team welcoming the heroine. She has a few secret arguments with the daughters of other ministers and then is scolded.
When Gu Ning and others arrived in Hengdian, everyone had almost finished putting on makeup.
Lu Zhan asked Gu Ning and the others to arrive before nine o'clock, which did not mean that they had to arrive around nine o'clock. Rather, their scenes had to start shooting around ten o'clock, and if they arrived before ten o'clock, they would need time to put on makeup, change clothes, and make some preparations.
Lu Zhan and others arrived around seven o'clock, and then started putting makeup on the actors.
The makeup of the leading actor needs to be more delicate, so it takes longer. At present, they have just finished their makeup and changed their clothes, and heard that Gu Ning is here, and then they came out.
In the entertainment industry, Chu Peihan doesn’t have any particular idols that she particularly likes, but she still has some stars that she likes. The male and female protagonists of this drama are also stars that Chu Peihan likes.
