Exploring the Entertainment Circle [Ancient and Modern]

Yan Tan smiled and said, "So today, let's learn the first lesson together: friends and suitors are different. Many details and many behaviors are different."

Tao Qingfeng immediately became wiser: "Is it reflected in the attitude?"

"Yes," Yan Tan said, "although I haven't chased anyone before. But I have been asked out by many people. Some of them are my friends. When we are friends, it is normal to go out to eat or play. But once they change into As a suitor, there will be an 'intention'. And if this 'intention' is too obvious, based on my personal experience, it will easily lead to backlash. I am very disgusted that I just made an appointment for dinner, and then said something nasty. Even the kind of intention to come up and use hands and feet."

Tao Qingfeng nodded and said: "A gentleman starts with passion and ends with courtesy, this has to be done step by step."

Yan Tan added: "But you can't reveal your intentions at all. This way you won't be able to achieve the effect of 'pursuing', making others think that it's just friends eating, and you haven't crossed that line."

Speaking of this, Yan Tan thought with some frustration, the few words he hinted before, after all, Tao Qingfeng did not hear his "intent". It seems that Tao Qingfeng is not that kind of sensitive person, so he should be more obvious.

Tao Qingfeng asked: "Where is that line?"

Yan Tan shook his head: "I don't know. So we have to study and study together. Guangchuan, if it were you, where would you like that line to be?"

Tao Qingfeng murmured, "Perhaps in physical contact?"

Yan Tan asked: "Not at all?"

Tao Qingfeng thought about it very seriously: "It doesn't seem to be the case. As long as it's the kind of 'no intention', it doesn't seem to matter whether it's helped up or drunk and carried away."

Yan Dan said: "So the question comes back again, how is the line of 'intent' counted? Can you... try it a little bit? Imagine a situation like this: For example, the person I like you plays, thinking of the relationship in the past It's sad, he needs someone to pull him up. I tell him I like him, release that intention, and encourage him to come out, and I don't know how it works?"

Tao Qingfeng was stunned: "Do you want to try now?"

Yan Tan raised his eyebrows: "Do you need to brew some feelings?"

Tao Qingfeng thought to himself, there is no need to think about it, he was thinking that he would never see Yan Tansheng again, he was very sad, the tears in the corners of his eyes were still wet, and he said: "It's okay, I can cooperate, Teacher Yan wants... what should I do?" Do?"

Yan Tan said: "When I touched you, you were in a very sad state, just like you almost cried just now." Yan Tan got up and sat beside Tao Qingfeng.He put one hand on Tao Qingfeng's shoulder, made a warm hug gesture, and hugged Tao Qingfeng.

Although he knew that this was just acting, Tao Qingfeng suddenly came into contact with that comforting touch, and almost couldn't control how to release his emotions according to his sad mood, and let himself fall into Yan Tan's arms, tears streaming down his face: His mother and master are gone, and Da Chu is gone... He is just a scholar living here alone.

Yan Tan patted him on the back and coaxed him softly: "...sorry, the important thing is, let yourself go."

Tao Qingfeng shook his head in Yan Tan's arms. This was not only the mentality of the character Tao Qingfeng imagined, but also his own inner voice, saying: "I can't let go, it's impossible. I can't do it, I can't control it, I can't get out ..."

The big clamp in Yan Tan's heart finally found the most suitable position, and clamped it firmly without hesitation.Yan Dan leaned into Tao Qingfeng's ear, and said slowly: "Then, am I qualified to let you come out? Would you like to try another flower pot? I actually treat you..." Yan Dan's words melted in his ears Every inch, his breath was very hot, but it didn't have the slightest offensive meaning, just to convey the message, and gently kissed Tao Qingfeng's earlobe, which was close at hand.

Tao Qingfeng suddenly pushed Yan Dan away in shock.At that moment, I thought that fortunately this was just acting.He sat inside the booth and pushed himself against the wall instead.There were still wet tears on his face, and an unbelievable light shone in his big eyes.

"No, no, no——" Tao Qingfeng couldn't form words, it was too difficult to act, and it was too easy to embarrass.At that moment just now, he almost had the illusion that Yan Dan really liked him, especially when Yan Dan got close, which made Yan Dan feel in a trance.

Yan Tan inquired: "This level? No way?"

Tao Qingfeng shook his head to indicate no, his earlobe and half of his face were still very red, and his head was a little dizzy, but only Yixian Qingming was very sure: if he used himself as a reference.It is unacceptable now.This incident just made ripples in his heart.

Yan Tan said again: "Then listen, is it okay for me to say this?"

Yan Dan's voice is still methodical, full of abstinence, but gentle tone: "I know you are panicking now." Yan Dan smiled softly: "I probably can't stand it for a while. Many, I don’t expect to get any definite results immediately. But this kind of thing, there must be an opportunity to explain it clearly, otherwise there is no way to start, people always have to move forward. Don’t be afraid, think slowly. Like it , it’s just a simple thing.”

Tao Qingfeng thought to himself, fortunately, Yan Tan seemed very calm, otherwise he would be emotionally ups and downs, and it was really impossible to predict what lines he would say.He was also infected by this certainty, and continued to act according to his own understanding with difficulty: "Mr. Yan...you are fine...but I..."

"Don't issue the card now." Yan Tan quickly waved his hand, which is what he had already prepared, "Just take it as a way to save me, think about it, think about it thoroughly. But don't take it as a burden, and don't bother me .Don’t think that rejection will hurt me or something. Because I really like you, and you understand me, I am the one who can make you come out the most.”

Tao Qingfeng thought, this maddening sense of superiority made him see Yan Tansheng in a trance, standing in front of him with a smile and saying to him - if in his previous life, Yan Dansheng also liked him, and the moment he told him , must have said this sentence.

——“How could you not like me?”

Not "Do you like me?" but "How can you not like me?"

The conversation was blocked on this point, so Tao Qingfeng had no choice but to continue to act: "Then... Teacher Yan. Just let me think about it." Tao Qingfeng thought, the person that Teacher Yan likes will not be left behind It's Yan Dan's face.The proper solution is to set aside a so-called 'think it over' time before refusing.

Although it's acting, but thinking about it from the perspective, what Yan Tan said will really make the "rejector" feel less guilty.Tao Qingfeng didn't know if that person, like himself, had also received help from Yan Tan.But if he himself was confessed by Yan Tan, and Teacher Yan treated him so well, he would not only fail to repay the other party, but also hurt the other party's feelings. It reveals a kind of "you can still be friends if you are not successful", a retreat with ease.

Tao Qingfeng really admired Yan Dan so much, and was also impressed by his charisma.Tao Qingfeng thought to himself, if it wasn't for Yandan Shengzhuyu in front.He's not acting either, he can't refuse such a person at all, right?

"Okay, but during this time," the pincer target in Yan Tan's mind slowly and methodically changed the direction: "You have to understand, I'm in a state of 'I hope to be honored to be liked by you', In layman's terms, it means doing what the suitor should do. No matter what it is—"

Tao Qingfeng was frightened again, and almost forgot that this was just acting, so he waved his hands: "No, no, no——"

"No matter what it is—" Yan Dan raised his voice, "you are still under consideration, so you can't just reject me directly. Respect is mutual. I don't want anything else, as long as this respect for the suitor is up until the consideration period ends .”

Tao Qingfeng almost wanted to applaud Yan Tan: It's so beautiful.How long does it take to "figure it out"?a day or two?That is obviously not the "think about it" that Yan Tan hoped for.The implication is at least three to five months, but in such a long period, if that person can't directly reject Teacher Yan's pursuit, the possibility of success is very high.

Tao Qingfeng thought to himself: Just a few words today completely dispelled his painful knot of liking Yan Tansheng, and also released the truth that liking the same sex is also allowed by a sage.Teacher Yan is too capable.For such a long time, if he really pursues someone seriously, that person will definitely fall.

Yan Tan said lightly, "It seems acceptable?"

Tao Qingfeng said sincerely: "It is impossible to refuse."

Yan Tan smiled, and shook hands with Tao Qingfeng: "Then, I will play 'Pursuing and Being Pursued' next, please give me your advice, Guangchuan."

After dinner, Tao Qingfeng was going to see Oracle Bone Inscriptions with Yan Dan.But I got a call from my agent.

Tomorrow morning, the crew has temporarily arranged an audition meeting, and I hope Tao Qingfeng will also go to watch it.Originally, Tao Qingfeng didn't need to return to the set until tomorrow afternoon.But if there is work in the morning, then Tao Qingfeng has to go back now, and he can catch the evening high-speed train back to Hengma Film and Television City in province B.

"Audition? Can we have an audition for this web drama?"

Tao Qingfeng was still slightly surprised.According to his inexperienced knowledge, the investment scale of this web drama is small, the director is undecided, the screenwriter is not well-known, the original IP is second-rate, and after the two leading actors have left, the actors who will take over the show should be asked by the producer. What do you think? There are quite a few people acting, so they can start auditioning?

Su Xun didn't say very clearly on the phone, probably because the producer valued Tao Qingfeng's opinion since he knew Tao Qingfeng.Tao Qingfeng participated in the preliminary work of the screenwriter and director, and they repeatedly emphasized that they hoped that Tao Qingfeng would also watch the selection.Tao Qingfeng was greatly surprised by this attempt to refer to his opinion, but at the same time very excited.

Tao Qingfeng temporarily changed the plan and decided to return to the group tomorrow morning, so he had to say goodbye to Yan Tan.

Before leaving, Tao Qingfeng asked Yan Tan a question: "Mr. Yan, you said that the pursued person has a different boundary from a friend. Then, when I play this role, I can't just agree to meet you alone for dinner. ?Because that's a 'date'. It's going to be... difficult, right?"

"This attitude is very good. You can act according to your ideas. Don't worry about me, it's a challenge for me to think about." Yan Tan smiled: "However, I like challenges. I'm also very good at it. Rise to the challenge. The harder it is... the more I like it."

When Yan Tan said he liked it, he looked into Tao Qingfeng's eyes very seriously.This looks exactly like Yan Dansheng, Tao Qingfeng's heart trembled again, he quickly looked away, said goodbye and left.

Tao Qingfeng returned to the crew the next day and got information about the audition.

This audition was to choose the second female cousin, and there were more than a dozen candidates.And it's not all the artists who can't be found on the [-]th line.There are quite a few female stars who are currently active in the second and third tiers with a little traffic.For example, Yu Ci's Bai Yiyi, the actress who shot a drink commercial with Tao Qingfeng that day.She really tried to find a way to contact Blueberry's executives, and found out that the script of this drama was really attractive.The cousin's personality is also very challenging. She is beautiful, handsome, miserable, strong and finally died.If the performance is good, it is easy to attract diehard fans.

Apparently she wasn't the only one who got the news.For the female number two of an ordinary small web drama to be able to hold an audition meeting for casting, it is enough to show how well-informed the news in the industry is.

There are only four "judges" in the audition, Blueberry's producer, Blueberry's supervisor, screenwriter girl and Tao Qingfeng.Tao Qingfeng asked, and learned that the director hadn't been confirmed yet, and he hadn't reached a conclusion after several contacts.So today is a weird audition without a director.

After watching the audition of a dozen or so people, Tao Qingfeng felt that Bai Yiyi was the most like him, she had an innate ruthlessness.He gave feedback to the producers.The producer and supervisor, who were still hesitating between the two candidates, adopted Tao Qingfeng's opinion, and finally confirmed Bai Yiyi as the second female lead.

"The director hasn't been found yet." The producer said kindly to Tao Qingfeng, "Qingfeng, you just make do with being a half-director and bring her along."

Of course Tao Qingfeng had to agree.In his opinion, it was no big deal, but Bai Yiyi was terrified.

Bai Yiyi still took some thought to PK out the other candidates, including two of her seniors and sisters from Yuci Entertainment Company.But she felt weird when she auditioned.He knew Tao Qingfeng who was present, and the other girl should be an assistant.One of the two high-level people should be the director.After the decision was made, she went to find someone, only to find out that there was no director for this miraculous web drama.The progress is first filmed by the actors themselves, and Tao Qingfeng has already filmed several scenes.Self-directed and acted.

Bai Yiyi was even more surprised when she learned that Tao Qingfeng was almost working as a "director" and "actor" during this time.Moreover, Tao Qingfeng has done all these things quite sensibly.And whether it is the studio staff or the blueberry producer who occasionally comes to supervise, they all seem to acquiesce and cooperate with his arrangements.

Bai Yiyi was deeply suspicious: I came to audition after hearing that the script was good. Is this drama really reliable?The blueberry executives are not relatives of Tao Qingfeng's family, right?Also released a big cake with a good script to pull them into the pirate ship?

However, Bai Yiyi completely changed her opinion after filming the first scene in the announcement, "The witch plays the pipa teasing her cousin".

The cousin's weapon is the pipa, and Bai Yiyi has never learned it, but she still knows how to pose.After she passed the audition, she got part of the script (the small screenwriter was in a hurry, and still didn't write the whole script), and she was immediately attracted by the tension of the script.The role to be played was also established in her mind with a very clear image.Bai Yiyi immediately realized: the rumors in the industry are true, this script is really possible.

She originally thought that since the director was not in place, she would not have to rush to shoot, but Tao Qingfeng came to discuss with her that day: ask her to try the scene she appeared in to find out how she feels.

Bai Yiyi asked: "But, the director hasn't arrived, how can we shoot?"

Tao Qingfeng said: "Let's discuss."

Bai Yiyi asked suspiciously: "Discuss? With whom, with you?"

Tao Qingfeng shook his head: "With everyone. The photography, lighting, props of this scene, and of course me, but the most important thing is you and your cousin, you and your own heart."

Bai Yiyi was taken aback by this unique rhetoric, she thought dazedly: Isn't it just filming a scene?Why does it sound so complicated?I didn't understand either, what with my heart, and my cousin?Cousin is a character?

But when she really took the pipa and was about to read her lines, Bai Yiyi seemed to understand a little bit.Tao Qingfeng stood beside her and asked, "What song do you want to play?"

Bai Yiyi was choked up for a moment, and said: "Actually, I haven't learned the pipa... Do I want to make up for it temporarily? Is there a teacher to teach me?"

Tao Qingfeng changed the way of asking: "No, although you can't play the pipa, your cousin can play the pipa. So you have to think for her, what kind of music is she playing?"

Bai Yiyi hesitated and said: "But, I don't have this knowledge. I don't even know the pipa songs. Is this detail important? I didn't see the title of the song on the script, but just wrote that my cousin is playing the pipa, In this scene, the pipa is not used as a weapon, but just for fun. What's more, the sound of the pipa is not dubbed in the later stage? I think what an actor wants to express is mainly the picture."

Tao Qingfeng put it another way: "Then do you think it's only necessary to consider the performance of the cousin in the camera for a few seconds? Can it get into her heart?"

Bai Yiyi vaguely understood something, and asked: "Do you mean..."

"It was a rainy day. My cousin came back from the palace and learned that my cousin Luo Langning, who was in the hidden mountain, had returned to the prince's mansion in Jichang on a rare occasion. But she knew that her cousin didn't like staying in the prince's mansion, so she went back to the capital to visit old friends For his sake, he must come to see her. So she stayed in her small courtyard and waited for him. And played the pipa. Luo Langning is a hidden hero who is praised by everyone, but he has bloody hands. The eagle dog in Xuelingfang has concealed him for many years. Even the hand that just came back from the palace seems to have the illusion that the blood of the executed officials is dripping. It is raining heavily. My cousin is worried that Luo Langning may not be able to shelter from the rain, and she does not want him to be exposed to the rain , but if he really doesn't come, she will be very sad. I suggest that this pipa piece can be "House of Flying Daggers" or "The Overlord Unarmor", after all, she is a murderous..." Tao Qingfeng said in a breath .

Bai Yiyi was dumbfounded, and stammered: "...the script is not so detailed, how do you know?" She shook her head again, indeed it can be deduced based on the character design and plot logic, "but... Yes, do you want to think so much? This scene has no lines, so it should be a few seconds?"

Tao Qingfeng took it for granted, "But, you can't just be a cousin for a few seconds. Since you played her, she'll live on you, right?"

Bai Yiyi understood now, looked at Tao Qingfeng with admiration, and asked: "So you always act like this? Even if you don't express it in the script, you should treat the character as a real life and carefully think about every aspect of his life. , small habit details, ideas for each stage..."

Tao Qingfeng smiled wryly: "I even thought about what insects Yu Shanhai liked to catch when he was a child..."

Bai Yiyi was curious: "What insect?"

"Round-tailed bees. Geographically, there are round-tailed bees in Yu Shanhai's hometown. The round-tailed ones have no thorns, and they can be put in bamboo tubes after being caught. This is the reason why Yu Shanhai later used bamboo to practice martial arts: he put bees in the bamboo to practice kung fu. It can train ear strength and record the trajectory of strength."

Bai Yiyi was even more curious: "Then do you think my cousin would catch bees when she was a child?"

Tao Qingfeng immediately said: "No, the northern country is very cold. But my cousin can catch spiders, and the hobby of playing with poisonous insects can be cultivated since childhood."

Bai Yiyi's whole face changed, and she murmured: "Acting like this... is so exciting, so exciting. I won't shoot today. I'll go to study the script first. It's so exciting."

Not to mention that when Bai Yiyi left, she said to herself "too exciting" floatingly, and she didn't come out until noon the next day after returning to the room, as if she didn't get enough sleep.Tao Qingfeng, who had regained four hours of sleep a day, didn't think there was any difference after the "reorganization" of the crew, and the director still couldn't find anyone.Tao Qingfeng even felt that he might as well just finish the filming like this.

When having breakfast the next day, Su Xun told Tao Qingfeng a subversive news: the candidate for the female number one Mei Wangxue has been confirmed, and it turned out to be Du Yue.Su Xun used the word "unexpectedly" because Du Yue is one of the black and red traffickers who are tied with Liu Qihui.Already a TV darling, she's currently trying to break into the film world.Xiaohua belongs to the first-line rising period, and her coffee position is much higher than that of Tao Qingfeng.It is really unexpected that he will join the lineup of this web drama.

Su Xun's lack of sense of smell has already been urgently put on the agenda by Lisa to discuss with Blueberry executives—no matter why Du Yue came here, there is no need to be trapped in this show with Du Yue as a famous flower. Online drama platform, you can try to sell Shangxing TV.

This kind of luck, this kind of opportunity, the various qualifications revealed in this drama: Even if the director has not been found yet, the script is solid.Although the actor is not a big hit, but his attitude is serious and responsible, he strives to do every detail well, has his own tasteful aesthetics, and also specially considers the setting of the audience's mentality... Putting it all together, he is going to soar.
