Chapter 341 Horse's Drama
The first scene today was filmed in the stable of the Weiyang Palace Film and Television Base. This stable was of course built specifically for filming and is not open to tourists.
The emperor brought the Chanyu, who had just arrived in Chang'an, here to admire his beloved horse.
The stable smelled particularly bad. Although it was already autumn, the temperature had not dropped. The heat wave mixed with the stench of horse manure rushed towards Wang Xiangqin. He only took one step in and then backed out, covering his nose.
"Director Lin, I can't breathe in there," he complained to Lin Zhi.
Lin Zhi had worked with Wang Xiangqin many times before and knew his character very well. His complaints seemed like he was being a big shot, but in fact he was just too particular and a little neurotic. He just needed to be coaxed.
"Just hold on for five minutes. After we're done, you won't have to come to this place again," Lin Zhi patted his shoulder.
"I can't stand even five seconds."
"Show your professionalism as an actor! The cameramen have already set up their equipment inside and are waiting for you. If you delay like this, won't they have to stay in there longer? You have to think about others."
"Hey, it's not easy for everyone," Wang Xiangqin straightened his clothes and said, "Go ahead, shoot."
...
...
Liu Lan, who was watching from the side, had been trying to hold back her laughter. She felt that Wang Xiangqin's personality was somewhat similar to that of Emperor Yuan of Han, who was greedy for pleasure and extremely foolish.
In fact, apart from the fact that he likes to talk a lot and bother others, Wang Xiangqin is a pretty good person. He also cares about the minor supporting roles and is much more popular in the crew than Fu Feiqian.
Tang Tu was still wearing the animal skin, his skin was dark, standing next to the delicate Wang Xiangqin, the contrast was particularly obvious, especially his big beard, he looked much older than Wang Xiangqin, for this play, he made a lot of sacrifices. Wang Xiangqin admired him very much, and said frankly that even if he was 20 years younger, he could not do what he did.
The two walked into the smelly stable together, and the director gave the order, and the filming began.
"Today I have brought you here to see my carefully collected horses," the emperor said to the Chanyu with a smug look on his face. "The horses here are all donated by the northern countries."
He pointed to his favorite white horse and said, "This is a celestial horse, my favorite horse."
The Chanyu laughed and said, "Although you have many horses, none of them can compare to the fine horses of our Xiongnu. Oh no, your heavenly horses cannot even compare to my most ordinary horses."
His arrogance greatly annoyed the emperor, "Then I will have a competition with you on the spot to see whether your ordinary horse is better or my celestial horse is better."
Director Lin called for a stop.
Tang Tu and Wang Xiangqin left the stable immediately. Their assistants came forward to wipe their sweat off their face while the makeup artist waited to touch up their makeup. "Perfume, spray me with perfume," Wang Xiangqin instructed his assistant, "Use Jo Malone's floral scent, not the fruity one."
Everyone: “…”
Tang Tu also smelled bad, and he was disgusted by it, but he didn't show it like Wang Xiangqin did.
After a break of about twenty minutes, we continued with the second scene.
The emperor was walking in front, with his attendant behind him leading his celestial horse. He saw the Chanyu coming towards him leading his horse, which was a black horse, tall and strong, with powerful legs.
"Your horse does look very ordinary," the emperor said disdainfully, "If you offer it as a tribute to me, I won't even accept it."
The Chanyu laughed and said, "I have personally raised it since it was a puppy, and I have a very deep affection for it. Even if you offer it ten thousand gold coins, I would not sell it. This time when I came to Chang'an, it carried me for thousands of miles, running day and night, and it did not show any sign of fatigue." Having said this, the Chanyu touched the black horse's mane, and his eyes showed his love for the horse.
Liu Lan watched the two people's acting and admired them very much. Their acting skills were indeed superb, like two smiling tigers. Their expressions were friendly and kind, but every word they said was sarcastic and no one could ignore the sparks of confrontation in their eyes.
Wang Xiangqin has twenty years of experience in the industry and his acting skills are the result of hard work, while Tang Tu is only twenty-three years old and has very little experience. The fact that he can act so well shows that he is extremely talented.
There were many young girls in the crew who were fans of Tang Tu and Wang Xiangqin. Whenever they had a scene, they would secretly take pictures with their mobile phones, and Lin Zhi did not stop them.
