Chapter 47 How could this be!
I don’t know how Guan Xianyi did it.
All in all, the result was that not only were many things on the crew's side immediately in place, but even the complete script was quickly handed to Shu Ming.
In addition, some people suggested that Shu Ming should be replaced with a more experienced martial arts instructor.
In the end, even assistant director Hao Ning showed up.
This time, Hao Ning will not only be the executive assistant director, but also the director of Group B.
He is responsible for most of the fighting scenes, so his position is very important.
Shu Ming even came out to greet him, but Hao Ning patted him on the back with a cheerful look and sent him back to sit down.
The purpose of his visit this time was simple - to comfort the injured, ask Shu Ming's opinion, and convey the solution discussed in the group.
However, faced with Hao Ning's proposal.
Shu Ming denied it without hesitation: "Director Hao, I will study the script carefully. But I don't really want to replace Teacher Xiao Lin."
Lin Feng is the martial arts instructor responsible for training Shu Ming in fighting scenes this time.
"We had a great time, and Kobayashi really put a lot of effort into designing the moves..."
Shu Ming said it very bluntly. He just didn't want Lin Feng's hard work to be signed with someone else's name.
Maybe he can't do other things. In fact, Shu Ming himself has not received much fairness in this circle.
But if he can get something by just asking for it, he still has to fight for the people around him.
Shu Ming's straightforward and childish refusal might make others think that he was ungrateful.
But Hao Ning actually thought highly of him.
The reason why Hao Ning was able to be the director of Group B under a big name like Rong Ankang was because he himself was a martial arts director and his martial arts scenes were well-known in the industry for being brilliant.
He himself started out as a young martial arts director and worked his way up, so he could empathize with Raymond Lam. What Shu Ming said hit the nail on the head!
Hao Ning was in a good mood, so he naturally revealed more to Shu Ming: "...You got the script, right?"
"This role is quite profound and not that easy to play."
Rong Ankang spent three years polishing the script this time, and waited another three years to find the leading actor, but he still couldn't find a suitable actor for the role of "Zhu Zhen".
He had originally planned to interview each candidate one by one himself, but at the last minute the employer suddenly thrust an offer in his face that he could not refuse - what was going on?
Lao Rong was angry, but he didn't target the child too much. At most, he treated him coldly.
In other words, the crew is a bunch of smart people, they all change their attitudes too quickly...
Hao Ning sighed, but in his opinion, this is a good boy. When he wields a sword, he really has some of the spirit of an early young general!
It's the later scenes, I don't know if I can perform well...
In fact, Lao Rong should have noticed it too.
Otherwise, how could Hao Ning appear here today?
Thinking of this, Hao Ning smiled at Le Hehe, saying meaningfully: "Lao Rong likes hardworking children. If you have any insights or questions while reading the script, please go to him more often."
Every director has different habits. Some directors are very busy and don’t like to be disturbed by too many people.
Some directors, such as Rong Ankang, took advantage of this opportunity to "recommend themselves".
"Okay, thank you, Director Hao."
Seeing Shu Ming's clear eyes, Hao Ning quickly understood what he meant. He put his hands behind his back, hummed a little tune, and strolled away.
Well, talking to smart kids is fun and saves effort~
Anyway, others don’t know, but he really likes it!
**
Taking advantage of his hand injury and the fact that he had almost finished training for fighting scenes, Shu Ming began to study the script patiently.
I have to say, this is a really good script that has made Rong Ankang wait for so many years!
The characters are three-dimensional and vivid. Even though Zhu Zhen can be considered a villain in the movie, it makes people feel heartbroken for him, and even keeps thinking about him after reading it.
Just staying up all night to finish reading, Shu Ming shed tears. So, with wet eyelashes, he used his remaining right hand to write a biography of the character.
He even asked someone to go to the library and borrow several large history books, which he read bit by bit.
Now that I have finished all the homework I can do, the next step is naturally to harass the great director Rong Ankang.
However, although Shu Ming could understand Rong Ankang's cold treatment of him, he was still a little unhappy.
But this unhappiness did not stop him from fighting for more roles for himself!
Shu Ming has always been a bold person, and with Hao Ning's support, other people would rather avoid such a big director for fear of offending him.
As for him, he just rushed forward as soon as he said he would - even Guan Xianyi was shocked, and he felt like he got to know Shu Ming a little better.
This kid, why didn’t I realize he had this characteristic before?
But what is even more shocking is that Shu Ming actually managed to pull off such a reckless thing!
After he went to see Rong Ankang for the fifth time, the entire crew completely finished Wu Xun and started the first script reading.
On the first day of the reading, Rong Ankang glanced at the actors present and pointed at a distant place:
"Come here and sit here."
Shu Xiaoming, who had just found his seat in the conference room and was about to sit down: Ah?
He was wearing a hooded sweatshirt and had a plain face. His left hand was holding a large bag of stationery with his fingers, and his right arm was holding a stack of notebooks. He looked stunned, like a well-behaved student.
Faced with Shu Ming's shock, Rong Ankang had a faint smile on his face, but it quickly disappeared.
"Yes, I'm talking about you. Come sit next to me."
At this moment, Shu Ming had only one thought in his mind:
Oh no, he has been harassing Director Rong in various ways every day, and now he has finally gotten his comeuppance!
**
"Fortunately, I was only allowed to sit next to Director Rong for one day—"
Shu Ming grumbled and whined, then let his elder brother cover his face with a warm towel.
Then—the puppy shook its head and sat up suddenly!
He reached out and pulled the towel away: "Breathe...I can't breathe!"
Guan Xianyi was already energetically stepping on her high heels, with her arms folded, "Alright, hurry up and get up, or you'll be late."
It was all because we read together too late yesterday, so he only slept for more than three hours.
Shu Ming had no choice but to quickly splash some water on her face and went to work without makeup.
Overall, the atmosphere in Rong Ankang's crew is quite good.
The crew uses the power struggle in the Yong Dynasty as the background to tell the legendary story of a generation of famous officials, thereby exposing the people's livelihood issues and the dark side of society in the feudal dynasty.
With such a profound plot, the male lead is naturally not a traffic star, but a powerful actor in his forties with a very high status who has played many classic roles. His name is Qiao Minxue.
Let me put it this way, learning to play a supporting role for Qiao Min is almost like promoting Shu Ming!
This is the real reason why the company is trying so hard to get Shu Ming in.
Moreover, even my aunt has seen the classic roles played by Qiao Minxue and likes them very much.
Shu Ming had never met Teacher Qiao before in the martial arts training camp.
After seeing it during the reading, I immediately shamelessly asked for an autographed photo - hehe, so I can send it to my aunt!
According to Qiao Minxue, his child is the same age as Shu Ming.
In fact, it's not just Qiao Minxue who is like this. Most of the main actors in the play are at least one generation older than Shu Ming. There are not many conflicts of interest between them, and the atmosphere is naturally good.
In addition to the young male actor in the group...
Shu Ming always felt that the other person looked at him strangely, but the other person didn't have many scenes, and the two of them didn't have many scenes together, so there wasn't much in-depth contact.
He suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and silently raised his vigilance.
He greeted the seniors around him one by one—then quickly walked to his seat.
"Hey, Xiao Shu is here."
"Well, here comes the elementary school student with his colorful pens again!"
Speaking of this joke, it was discovered by netizens when Shu Ming’s Reuters photos were circulated!
Before the reading began, Shu Ming bought a bunch of colored pens and sticky notes, and carried them to the reading every day. The script was covered in a lot of colors, and the edges of the colored sticky notes were slightly exposed, making the notebook thicker.
Fans have sharp eyes——
"Our Xiao Shu is so well behaved at work, and he's handsome even without makeup~"
"Baby, have you lost some weight? I feel like the bones in your wrist are more obvious than before."
"Am I the only one who noticed that Shu Ming's pencil case is full of colored pencils? They're all colorful, just like my nephew who just started elementary school."
"I'm dying of laughter. Shu Ming, a primary school student who goes to school on time every day..."
Of course, in addition to Shu fans who are happy that Shu Ming has joined the group, there are also other fans who are extremely jealous and have developed red-eye disease.
"It's a true rumor. A certain young actor was forced into the famous director's group by the company."
"The last person who was forced in seemed to have quit the group in tears before filming even started."
"Wait for news on s being returned."
“+10086”
No wonder these people started to get anxious.
Shu Mingqian played an important supporting role in "Love of the Grassland" and later joined Rong Ankang's film crew.
How is this different from the development path of ordinary traffic stars? !
It's all very different.
On the one hand, it is certified by CCTV, so if you want to join a serious drama crew in the future, you have a stepping stone, and the starting point is very positive.
On the other hand, he has stepped into the film industry! As long as he performs normally and does not fall behind, film resources will be easily obtained!
What's the next step? Going to the sky?
There are only so many resources suitable for young actors. How can the real protagonist fight with Shu Ming in the future?
With things developing like this, who can beat him in the future?
Shu Ming had no idea whether they were extremely anxious over there.
Shu fans also calmly pretended not to see it and focused on watching their children go to and from get off work.
What about Shu Xiaoming, who loves fancy stationery?
The child has been awarded the title of "Elementary School Student" in the crew due to the comments from fans.
Shu Ming was quite confident: "I didn't have so many pens when I was in school. I was so envious when I was little!"
He was making up for his regrets—
Besides, what's wrong with using so many pens? He worked hard to earn money, so buying some pens is not illegal.
Perhaps it was the reading experience that allowed Shu Ming to get closer to the character and get into the feeling of the role more.
These days, Shu Ming has been acting like the arrogant and unruly young general Zhu Zhen. Even his daily conversations have become a bit more "crazy" and flamboyant, but he is not annoying.
The young general who was famous and came from a distinguished family in the capital city back then should have spoken with such confidence, and with a bit of arrogance and pride!
This is something that the director and the other actors are happy to see. What's more, Shu Ming is also funny in this state, and everyone likes to play a few jokes on him.
Today is no exception -
The plot has already come to the point where Zhu Zhen is about to lead his troops to fight the enemy for the first time.
Shu Ming, holding the script, stood up in a flash, his chin raised slightly: "Humph, why do you need generals? I am enough!"
The voice was both arrogant and confident, and even so clear that it had a slight echo in the conference room.
It's as if the little general is possessed!
Then Shu Ming hopped into the aisle between the seats and cockily acted like he was drawing a bow and shooting an arrow. "Then, should I shoot an arrow into a rock to prove I'm strong enough?"
This is a classic historical scene, "the arrowhead disappeared in the stone", and the movie also retained this part.
It is said that only the tail of the arrow was left outside, and when the servant went to check it, the tail was still trembling slightly.
Qiao Minxue laughed at him: "Can you really ejaculate inside?"
Shu Ming shook his head. He was considered strong, but he really couldn't do it to this extent.
"It's okay, Director Rong will definitely be able to solve this problem!"
He chuckled and fled back to his seat.
Anyway, on the one hand, it was because Shu Ming gradually got into the role.
On the other hand, he gradually figured out the way of getting along with his seniors in the previous crew, and relying on his young age, he happily acted as a funny guy.
He knew the right measure, asking only questions and not giving too many suggestions.
More importantly, Shu Ming was born with the ability to be liked!
There are many people who want to be the crew's favorite. Counting on your fingers, how many of them succeed?
Among the successful ones, how many can be as successful as Shu Ming?
Not to mention that Shu Ming would actively hang around among the leading actors every day, learning a little from here and a little from there, and everyone would just let him learn with a smile.
If Shu Ming is not in the group one day, no one will be used to it. He is really missed by everyone.
Even when the crew occasionally went for a workout and a run together, they would specifically ask, "Where's Xiao Shu? Hurry up and call our Xiao Shu up!"
Therefore, in a blink of an eye, the jealous fans of other groups did not wait for the news of Shu Ming's withdrawal from the group.
Instead, we waited for the official announcement of the start of filming of "Chang'an Ashes".
In the commemorative photo of the opening ceremony, Shu Ming was surrounded by everyone and sat in the middle, holding a bouquet of flowers, with his chin buried in his scarf, smiling so brightly!
How could this be——
