Ye Li is a very perceptive person. When others see a trending search, they may just laugh, but he will think more about it.
He was also very proactive and called Gu Qingchi right away.
"You are close to Xie Luyu, is there anything else?"
It is about nine forty in the morning.
Gu Qingchi was at home. He had just woken up and was still a little sleepy. He was lying on the sofa in his pajamas.
The pajamas are dark red and appear to be made of silk, but they feel much softer. The exposed skin appears whiter and even has a voluptuous feel.
It's like a rose that has been blooming for too long, and even its fragrance seems too strong. When it is about to wither, it uses up all its nutrients and seizes the last moment to bloom to its heart's content.
A pair of soft-looking slippers were thrown untidy on the carpet under the sofa. Her short hair had grown a little longer and was slightly curled at the ends.
He looked a little lazy, with the top two buttons open, revealing a bit of his collarbone.
The phone was connected as usual and placed on the coffee table.
Xie Luyu was cooking porridge in the kitchen.
Gu Qingchi tilted his head, holding a cup of steaming milk in his hand. Little Lihua was curled up beside him, sticking to his waist. He looked lazy all over, and when he heard Ye Li's words, he opened his eyes in surprise.
When he spoke, his voice was a little hoarse from just waking up, and his tone was calm and soothing.
"Nothing, don't worry. I remember you said not to fall in love."
In fact, it’s better not to do so. We should keep a low profile when talking about it, Ye Li thought to himself and started to get down to business.
"You'll be joining the crew in a few days. They should be making pretty good progress and plan to use this time to finish filming the scenes. You'd better also take a look at the role as soon as possible and adapt to it in advance."
"Um."
Ye Li was worried. Although he had never filmed a movie, he had seen pigs run many times even though he had eaten pork. He also had a script in his hand, so he started to explain it to Gu Qingchi on the spot.
Gu Qingchi’s new play has a great background, both in terms of director and actors.
Slater, an internationally famous director who made the love blockbuster of the century, is a multinational combination. The director is from country Y, and the male and female protagonists are both from country M.
Gu Qingchi is the only Chinese and could be ranked the third male lead in terms of screen time, but Ye Li hesitated for a long time before accepting the role because of the delicate role positioning issue.
But in fact, it was not easy for Ye Li to get this role.
At first they just wanted a black-haired man to express the gloomy feeling, but later they suddenly had an idea and wanted a man with black hair and black eyes, so they simply recruited Chinese.
China has many talented actors. Many actors of the previous generation have already won movie kings and movie queens. This generation also has an emerging figure like Xie Luyu, who was crowned king at a young age. There are also many talented new actors emerging below.
In such a fierce situation, even though the role positioning made many people wait and see, Ye Li was able to win the game because he used a lot of connections.
Xie Luyu could certainly sneer at such a character.
But given Gu Qingchi's current status, this role is already a top-notch resource.
Xie Luyu brought out the porridge and the whole earthenware pot. Seeing that Gu Qingchi was on the phone, he moved more gently as Gu Qingchi was on the speakerphone.
He waited until the call ended before serving Gu Qingchi a bowl of porridge.
"A new play is about to be filmed? How do you feel about it?"
Gu Qingchi answered them one by one.
"We're going to shoot, and I'll be joining the crew in the next few days. I feel like I can't find the right one."
Xie Luyu just overheard it.
This can be learned from the known information.
That character is completely different from Gu Qingchi’s slightly indifferent emotions.
He was born with rich emotions, and all the evil desires in the world could be found in him - jealousy, greed, arrogance, and lust.
Latin dancers are selfish and pursue pleasure without any bottom line. They indulge themselves in intense music and physical contact and become more and more depraved.
He is born with the ability to use his excellent conditions to lure in the prey he likes, and he makes no secret of his indulgence.
His life was filled with debauchery and extravagance, and in the end he was destroyed by fireworks exploding in the sky.
Xie Luyu pondered for a moment.
"This character is controversial and indulges in pleasure. You may not have seen him before, so this image is very vague. There is no specific person. However, this character has too many negative emotions, so I don't need to put myself in his shoes too much. I can use body language to express and emphasize it."
“Like this.”
Xie Luyu was leaning forward, with his elbows on his knees and his chin in his hands, talking to Gu Qingchi in a very serious manner.
Now his whole demeanor has changed. The corners of his eyes and eyebrows show the unrestrainedness of a young man. His hands are resting on the back of the sofa, and he is looking lazily towards a place not far away. From his expression and movements, you can imagine what kind of decadent scene is going on over there.
In the distance was a reveling crowd and dancers dancing enthusiastically, their bodies entangled in the frenzy of the music. The whole world was in a carnival, and he looked at ease, as if he was the king here.
Then he finished immediately and returned to his normal self.
"Just rely on the action to show it all."
Xie Luyu emphasized that he still remembered that the last time Gu Qingchi filmed with him, Gu Qingchi was too immersed in the role.
Xie Luyu spent the next few days analyzing the character with Gu Qingchi, practicing the movements and expressions over and over again.
Normally, he should take Gu Qingchi to experience it, but this kind of role always makes Xie Luyu feel uneasy, so much so that he feels that he has gone too far. All he taught were techniques, and he didn't touch on the emotional aspects of the character at all.
This time the filming will be done abroad, and 80% of the scenes will be shot in the Queen's Ballroom in a small town.
Xie Luyu originally wanted to go along, but since he was free, he was rejected by Gu Qingchi.
Not only was this rejected, but his offer to send Gu Qingchi to the airport was also rejected. On the spot, the tail that had been wagging wildly behind him drooped down.
She was packing Gu Qingchi's suitcase at home in a depressed mood, wanting to stuff everything into it.
But he was quite good at tidying up. He folded everything neatly and even slipped some food in between the clothes.
Gu Qingchi could only put in a few pieces of clothes before the space was full, but Xie Luyu stuffed in several sets of clothes, including formal, casual, and pajamas, as well as a full bag of food and various accessories.
Gu Qingchi only brought Xiaoke this time. The crew generally doesn’t like actors to bring many people with them.
They had already arrived for a few days. The crew was nice and friendly, and Xiaoke was able to blend in easily.
There has been nothing going on in the crew.
This afternoon, I suddenly informed Director Xiaoke that he wanted to meet Gu Qingchi.
Xiaoke was eating at the time and was about to stand up after putting down the food.
"I'll go call him. He's in the room."
The one who came to inform us was the male lead - Allen, a famous actor and a gentleman. He had recognizable beautiful blue eyes and a short stubble on his chin, which gave him the charm of a mature man.
Even though he had a scarf around his neck and was wearing jeans.
"It's okay, I've finished my meal, I'll go."
The entire crew is quite casual, with few people, and even the leading actors are often pulled away.
We all know each other pretty well.
I have been feeling listless these past few days since I came to Qingchi because of jet lag and have been staying in my room the whole time.
"No, no, you eat well. I'm done. I'll go. I just want to confirm the room number. He's in the room."
Xiaoke's heart skipped a beat at that moment, thinking that Gu Qingchi was probably still not awake.
Not to mention the time difference he couldn't adapt to, even if there was no time difference, Gu Qingchi would still be active at night and stay at home during the day.
Xiaoke's English was not very good and before he could finish two rounds of conversation he was stopped by an enthusiastic colleague who was having dinner with him.
"Relax, enjoy your food, baby, and let them do their own thing."
Xiaoke tried to tell herself that it was okay, Alan had a good temper, and he just hoped he wasn’t that director with a changeable temper.
What she didn't see was Alan walking out of the restaurant and shouting into a room with an open door.
"Slater, let's go, he's in the room, go meet our third male."
Slater is the director of this film. His room is half an office and is always open. When Alan called him, he came out.
He was well-dressed, wearing glasses, tall and thin, with sharp eyes, a typical British look.
Alan was familiar with him.
"Don't be so serious later, and be gentle with our little actor."
Slater's sharp tongue has always been more noticeable than his talent. He speaks very quickly, but with ups and downs, making it easy for people to hear clearly.
"I don't know when you will care about this kind of thing. I remember you are an actor, not a stagehand?"
Alan shrugged, used to it.
"I just hope you don't take your anger out on innocent people. I know you have a lot of opinions about this character, but it was the capital that chose him."
"Oh, let's be clear, he was the first to seize the capital, what a talent."
Alan is still good-tempered.
"It could also be his agent. This isn't the first time you've seen this kind of thing."
Slater was unmoved.
"I am an adult with my own judgement, Mr. Allen."
"Okay, okay."
The two arrived while they were talking, and Alan went up and knocked on the door first.
"Sir, I'm sorry to bother you, I'm from the crew."
From inside there came the sound of a cup falling onto the carpet and some rustling sounds.
But he did not seem to be in a hurry, as if the host had knocked over the cup but did not care and remained calm.
Slater was getting a little impatient.
The door opened just as Alan was about to knock for the second time.
The first thing that hit me was a warm feeling. It was obvious that the people inside were very afraid of the cold and had kept the air conditioner on.
It was also mixed with the hotel room's own incense.
Then the door was completely opened, and Gu Qingchi leaned casually against the door.
He came out in pajamas and barefoot. One of his trouser legs was rolled up, revealing his slender calf. His short hair was slightly curled.
His back was not straight like he was outside, but was slightly arched naturally, and he looked a little lazy.
Alan's hand stopped in mid-air, completely forgetting his purpose, and he stammered as if even his tongue was tied.
"Hey, I'm Alan."
