Exploring the Entertainment Circle [Ancient and Modern]

Tao Qingfeng is very accurate in judging people. After hearing Tao Qingfeng's method of researching scripts that day, Bai Yiyi really went to copy the script as well, as if competing with herself. The effect is very outstanding. More like a cousin.But when discussing with Du Yue, although the other party also smiled and agreed, but after the work was over, there was basically no trace of hard work, and the effect of the play was not satisfactory.

Tao Qingfeng felt more and more strange: he thought that Du Yue played this role because of an excellent script after hearing Liu Qi's introduction.An actor of her worth can choose from a large number of fashion dramas and modern dramas that pay more, are not too tiring to shoot, and can be sold to TV stations.But he chose a crew that didn't match his status, wasn't he moved by some kind of emotion?But judging by her performance, her mind is not on these things.This is very strange.

Or maybe, Tao Qingfeng thought to himself: Du Yue's previous shooting habits were probably like this...loose?This crew is considered to be more serious for her?

When this idea came up, Tao Qingfeng deeply suppressed his worries about the industry's prospects.

After a few days, Tao Qingfeng finally found the answer after beating around. He also understood that Du Yue's mind was indeed focused on other things, but luckily there was a way to correct it.

At noon that day, Du Yue rarely returned to the RV for lunch, but went to the hotel restaurant in Hengma Film and Television City to eat with other crew members.Tao Qingfeng saw Du Yue and his manager sitting not far away, so he said hello.For the first time, Du Yue sat down to eat at the same table with Tao Qingfeng, and asked about the details of the scene that the two of them were going to match in the afternoon.

Tao Qingfeng felt very happy. The scene in the afternoon was a scene in which Mei Wangxue suspected Yu Shanhai's identity as an undercover traitor. The two met in public, but they couldn't ask the truth frankly. They had different thoughts and complicated emotions.Tao Qingfeng was worried that Du Yue didn't want to prepare in advance, and the effect would not be good in the afternoon.Seeing her take the initiative to ask, naturally try to talk and discuss as much as possible, and express my own opinions.

Du Yue listened casually at first, but was gradually attracted by what Tao Qingfeng figured out.

"Yu Shanhai played chess for the guests of Jichang Palace as a down-and-out staff member. In order to conceal his martial arts, he slapped himself. The internal injury has not healed yet, so he vomited blood while playing chess. But the real reason that inspired him to vomit blood The reason is because of Mei Wangxue's phrase, "If you are swayed, you can't save the middle game, so what can you do?" Yu Shanhai is a pawn in the Central Plains martial arts, and he knows his position. The corner is a metaphor for his success in assassinating Lord Jichang, the main combat faction, can he really save the people of the Central Plains? When the main combat faction falls, the North Kingdom will support a new main combat faction. Mei Wangxue decided to draw on his salary After assassinating the emperor of the Northern Kingdom, he said, "Why don't you play chess to Dalong!" Yu Shanhai understood Mei Wangxue's metaphor, and was very worried about her, so he vomited blood on the chessboard again."

Tao Qingfeng continued: "At that time, Mei Wangxue was ostentatious, willful, and full of ambition. She simply thought that the world would be peaceful once the emperor died. She fought all over the green forests of the southern country and rarely met opponents, so she felt that she One stab at the lonely sky can surpass the imperial capital. But Yu Shanhai knows that she can't succeed, whether it is her idea, the plan she implements, or the consequences that follow regardless of success or failure, she is as light as a feather, and she can't succeed at all. Bearing the weight. So Yu Shanhai must stop her, must wrap this feather..."

Du Yue was dumbfounded, and said for a while: "I think you are like a storyteller, adding many things that were not written in the script..."

"Although the script was not clearly written," Tao Qingfeng said gently: "But the screenwriter has made many settings that have not been translated into words, and they are hidden between the lines. If you study carefully or communicate more, you can get it. What I said It’s not my own random thinking, it’s also what I read and asked. If there’s no content, you can’t go on talking, and you need to have something to say... The genre of the script can’t be written in its entirety. Therefore, more discussions and communication are needed. Originally, if there is a director, he can guide this step, but now we don't have a director, we can only rely on ourselves."

Tao Qingfeng actually saw a nervous look on Du Yue's face at that moment, and he didn't eat much (although in his opinion, the amount of food he took to maintain his figure was already very small, just a few A piece of broccoli and a few slices of onions, no food or meat), but asked the agent to fetch the script, and said to Tao Qingfeng in an impromptu tone: "Will you practice with me?"

Tao Qingfeng pondered for a while, then raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who is coming this afternoon?"

Du Yue was stunned for a moment, and said helplessly: "People from Yelong Group...you keep it secret. They have been engaged in the real economy for a long time, and have never invested in the entertainment industry. They want to test the water, and they came here secretly today."

Tao Qingfeng felt even more strange: "If it's a new employer, Blueberry's senior management has no plans to receive it at all? Are you afraid that this matter will go to waste? They came secretly? You know but don't tell the crew?"

Tao Qingfeng didn't understand Du Yue's train of thought: Du Yue was already in the same boat as the film crew, and Yelong Group's pursuit of funds was also to increase her social status, or did she have some undiscloseable constraints?

Du Yue whispered again: "I shouldn't know about this. If I told Blueberry in advance, my friends in the Yelong Group would not send me the news. This is very important to me. So you pretend not to know, and later It's over in a few hours."

Tao Qingfeng then asked the last question: "You came to the show because you knew in advance that the Yelong Group might be planning to invest more in this web drama? As far as I know, with your appeal, there are many people who are better than Yelong. A large company in the group has also invested in your drama. Why do you care about his family so much? You even took this drama... I'm sorry... some self-deprecating dramas? Of course, this is just my personal curiosity. You don't have to answer."

Du Yue thought for a while, seeing that the manager hadn't come back, she said, "I'll probably be seen by him during filming in the afternoon...you remember to make me look good. You can't make mistakes in front of him..."

Tao Qingfeng gradually figured it out: "He? You're chasing someone? So you ran to a crew that they might invest in? You..." Tao Qingfeng couldn't understand it even more. She is so tall, the goddess in countless people's dreams, and she still needs to take this kind of detour if she wants to chase someone?Why not go directly.

Du Yue hurriedly lowered his voice: "Keep your voice down. Yelong didn't touch the entertainment industry before, and besides, that person bought Yelong Group not long ago, and he has never had a chance to get in touch with him. It's not easy...you must help me Busy. Qiqi said, you are the most serious in doing things."

Tao Qingfeng suddenly heard Liu Qi's comments from the cat girl who often played with his hair on the set, and laughed, "You two really have a good relationship? I think it's fine if you think about how to perform in the afternoon, even if it's just one or two performances." It’s not perfect, but seeing how you’re working hard, it should also increase your goodwill, right?”

"I can't talk about close friends with Qiqi, but the relationship is not bad." Du Yue chewed a mouthful of candy instead of cigarettes, "It was very bitter when I first entered the circle. I feel like I'm going to lose if I'm serious, so now..."

"If you're serious, you won't lose." Tao Qingfeng said: "You'd better show your energy. If you like someone, or want to achieve something, if you don't take it seriously, you will definitely lose."

What Tao Qingfeng didn't expect was that he actually knew the people from the Yelong Group.

But at first, Tao Qingfeng didn't know who it was.In the afternoon, he and Du Yue were filming the chess scene on the set.For the first time, Tao Qingfeng felt that Du Yue seemed to be a different person. With incomparably focused mind, he almost gritted his teeth, and every word of his lines seemed to be chewing an olive in his mouth.Emotions are particularly abundant, and emotions are particularly full.

Tao Qingfeng was very happy at first, but after going through it twice, he felt that it was a bit...too much.

He couldn't help but said to Du Yue: "Although Mei Wangxue's shot did show a sonorous and powerful determination, she was also disguised as a man at the time, and she wanted to hide from the crowd and stand among the chess watching crowd." Watching the chess without saying a word "True gentleman" is enough to make her sudden utterance seem abrupt... If she speaks in that tone again, it will be like, the next second she will be so angry that she will hit the scene."

Du Yue added the phrase in the script, "Be patient, you must be patient." 'Read it twice, looking for the feeling.At this moment, the manager secretly whispered something in Du Yue's ear, her expression froze for an instant, and her earnest attitude dissipated immediately, and she sat down on the chair very slumped.

Tao Qingfeng couldn't help but quietly asked: "What's wrong?"

Du Yue said dejectedly: "He...they didn't come to the shed to watch, they just went to eat."

Tao Qingfeng prayed in her heart that she would not lose motivation because of this, and reminded her: "Then we have to continue, right? This line of 'be patient, must be patient'..."

Du Yue probably was blown away by the news, and the script slammed angrily: "Endure! Why endure! Let's fight!"

Tao Qingfeng was very helpless for her act of bringing her personal emotions into work, and said euphemistically: "The script..."

Du Yue unexpectedly talked about her own opinion: "Don't you think Mei Wangxue is strange here? She is not the mentality of Yu Shanhai who bears humiliation and takes care of the overall situation. She is wearing a coir raincoat and a bamboo stick, and she is propped on a bamboo raft. Jiang; Riding a green donkey, she dared to enter the green forest alone. She was going to the snow mountain to eat Kangba crisp tea. Halfway through the northern country, remembering that this place was at war with the old country, she decided to stab the emperor. She is a feather ——The feathers are already very light, so there is no need to endure. Why is she a witch——The witch is just wanton and happy, no matter what the overall situation is, the kind of mood that makes her practice martial arts and fights is not the overall situation."

Tao Qingfeng was taken aback for a moment, realizing that this might be a blind spot where he and the screenwriter had been racking their brains, but they couldn't make Mei Wangxue's character smooth. During the discussion, everyone thought that what Mu Feike wanted to write was actually a very serious "chivalrous woman", so it was called "Danxin", and the core trait of "Xu Guozhi's great righteousness, and Yu is not afraid of life and death" was added.For Mei Wangxue's seemingly "disordered" behaviors, such as even massacring more than a dozen sects and taking the wrong medicine, I feel that there is no way to fix it. Maybe the only way to delete it is to not ruin the image.But what Du Yue said seemed to vaguely point out the direction for them...

Tao Qingfeng hurriedly asked: "What is the mood of letting her go to practice martial arts and fight?"

Du Yue took it for granted: "Isn't there only one mood to want to fight? That is-anger. Why is she angry? Angry life experience? Anger is unfair to girls? Or is it angry at the misses and partings that I can't stop?"

Tao Qingfeng said solemnly: "Perhaps you are right...Maybe, the script needs to be changed?"

It was the first time that Du Yue found out that he could also participate in the stage of script revision, and he couldn't help feeling relieved, feeling that it was different from the scenes he had filmed before.Even if you are the absolute protagonist in those plays and ask for changes, the ultimate goal of the final scenes: either to 'increase the duration', or for purposeful 'sprinkling of sugar' or 'gimmicks', it is really almost not perfecting the character. In the stage of design, it is difficult to make any changes.

Du Yue was just about to discuss with the screenwriter, when he suddenly thought of something, and suddenly said: "Then this afternoon, you won't be filming this one?"

After getting an affirmative answer, Du Yue hurried back to the room to change clothes, and rushed to the new battlefield in a glamorous way—the private visit of Yelong Group's Weibo was later known by the Blueberry executives, who intercepted them before they entered the shed, and fooled them go to eat.The location is at the central restaurant of Hengma Film and Television City.Of course, Du Yue wanted to seek a wave of intimacy before the person he liked left.

Tao Qingfeng originally planned to take advantage of this rare time to discuss with the screenwriter girl about Mei Wangxue's new character design direction - I have to say that although Du Yue is not serious enough, she can become a traffic floret, and it is not entirely dependent on What matters is face and luck.At least her debut work is still very aura, and she has won the supporting actress award that tests her acting skills-of course, she has some housekeeping skills when it comes to pondering roles.

As a result, before Tao Qingfeng returned to the lounge, he received a call: The Blueberry producer hoped that Tao Qingfeng, the number one male, would also come to the Yelong Group's dinner.Blueberry executives are particularly optimistic about Tao Qingfeng. If the other party wants to invest, of course they have to show them the best.

Tao Qingfeng had no choice but to go back to her room, change her clothes, and go to the party.Although what he thought was: Yelong Group depends on the effect, so why not go directly to the shed?Blueberry's executives were afraid that this web drama would be unprofessional in the eyes of others without a director, so they stopped them halfway to eat?But if everything in this world can be settled with a few words on the wine table, why should others work hard?

So going around, probably the Yelong Group made a request: I can't see the actual filming in the studio, so I have to see the actors anyway.It's the same as when you are picking in the vegetable market, you can't taste the fruit yourself, but you have to look at the fruit back and forth.

Tao Qingfeng didn't care, and only found out at the dinner that there was someone he knew.

The second brother of the Yan family, Yan Fang.

The thought that flashed through Tao Qingfeng at that moment was: I read it in the genealogy, the industrial group of the Yan family... it seems that it is not called Yelong, right?

However, he suddenly thought of Du Yue saying that Yelong was newly acquired, so he probably hasn't changed his name yet.

When Tao Qingfeng opened the door and entered, he caught a glimpse of Du Yue toasting Yan Fang with a smile - the person she wanted to chase was this joking Second Brother Yan, right?

Tao Qingfeng almost smiled at this coincidence.He didn't bother them. He walked around first and chatted with Blueberry executives. They followed the progress of the filming and exchanged some ideas. Tao Qingfeng also took the opportunity to propose a matter that he had wanted to apply for a long time ago:

"The shooting cycle of three months is too short. If this drama needs to shoot 20 minutes of footage, it only takes three months, and an average of more than [-] minutes of footage will be shot every day...the workload is too heavy, and it is too easy to be rough. gone."

After Tao Qingfeng finished speaking, Blueberry executives turned to Yan Fang and several senior executives, and said, "Adding the shooting cycle will definitely cost more money. If you don't inject capital, you can't finish shooting with that level of precision." He patted Tao Qingfeng on the shoulder, "But the other party's attitude is not clear now. Qingfeng, you go and learn from Du Yue, she will behave very well."

Tao Qingfeng turned his head and saw Du Yue shuttled like a phoenix-tailed butterfly, dancing among the senior executives of the Yelong Group, and the scene was quite pleasing to the eye.Even though her goal was to strictly release, she did not neglect others.If Tao Qingfeng hadn't known in advance that she had ulterior motives, ordinary people would definitely not be able to see what she had in mind.

Tao Qingfeng thought to himself: Since Du Yue wants to pursue Yan Fang, it would be good to leave the stage to her.He doesn't want to be known, he knows the boss of the management.Tao Qingfeng walked to the other side, where there was another wave of high-level executives from Yelong.Unexpectedly, before Tao Qingfeng walked over, he heard Yan Fang's voice from behind: "Tao Qingfeng, wait, why is it you again?"

Tao Qingfeng believes that the word "again" is definitely not a surprise coincidence. Before the Yelong Group wants to inject capital, it must know the leading actor in advance.Sure enough, Tao Qingfeng turned his head and saw that Yan Fang was almost "coming over in a hurry", and Du Yue followed at a distance of four or five meters, holding a red wine glass, with a trace of anxiety and resentment in his eyes.It seems to be a bad start.

Tao Qingfeng had a headache, he didn't really want to reveal his intention to know the boss, but Yan Fang cut him off mercilessly.

Yan Fang asked him, "Where's Xiao Dan?"

Tao Qingfeng didn't quite understand the logic of this second brother Yan, why did he ask Tao Qingfeng for his own brother?If you want to know where Yan Tan is, just make a phone call?In the past few days, I have been so busy on the set every day, how do I know about Yan Tan?

Suddenly Tao Qingfeng froze, thinking in a cold sweat: Yan Tan asked him to play that "role" together, could it not only be a private matter between the two of them, but also for the "simulation" to be more real.Tell his second brother... Otherwise, what is the meaning of this appearance of treating Tao Qingfeng as Yan Dan's emergency contact?

However, Tao Qingfeng thought about it again, in Yan Dan's family, falling in love must be a serious matter.I will not tell my family members about "acting" things that are not on the table.Most likely, Yan Fang wanted to get away, just looking for an excuse.

Tao Qingfeng sighed secretly: It's not that he didn't want to create opportunities for Miss Du.But it seems...Luohua is intentionally flowing and ruthless?Is Yan Fang looking for someone to rescue him?Does he help or not?
