Best Actor in A Dream of Love [Entertainment]
Chapter 76 76
About a week later, Chu Xun got off work from the tattoo shop and received a call on the way home.The number on the screen does not exist in Chu Xun's address book.But with a quick glance, he knew who the caller was.
Over the past week, the ancient puppet crew who had previously handed over the outline of the script to Chu Xun contacted Chu Xun in various ways every day, trying their best to persuade him to take the role of Dongchang Changgong.The director even came to the door in person and said frankly that apart from Chu Xun, no one in the entertainment industry today can play the He Fangliu in his heart.In order to invite Chu Xun to the film crew, the director also took the initiative to promise that he would raise Chu Xun's salary to 400 million.
The salary of 400 million yuan, placed xx years ago, is just the worth of Chu Xun's debut in a TV series.Today is no different than back then, if Chu Xun could get 100 million, he would be extremely lucky.
In all fairness, although this drama series is an ancient puppet, the production team and cast members are quite attentive.In particular, the crew invited several veteran actors to play heavyweight supporting roles.If you can participate in it, it is also a rare learning opportunity.
In the past few days, Chu Xun was also thinking about it. Maybe he did have too much prejudice against the ancient puppet show.It is true that most of these dramas are assembly-line products that follow the trend and seek profits, and the production concept of the drama is mostly "profit first".But what if this is an exception?
Chu Xun picked up the phone, and the director's hearty voice came into the ear canal clearly, "Mr. Chu, I sent you something today. Be careful to sign for it."
The director is a few years older than Chu Xun, but like a junior, he is used to calling Chu Xun his teacher.
Chu Xun was puzzled, "Sent me something?"
The director smiled again, "You will find out later. I hope you like it." After speaking, he hung up the phone.
Back in the community, the security guard really handed Chu Xun a courier package.Square and square, you can't tell what it is through the packaging.
Going down to the basement, Chu Xun unpacked and danced, and saw an airplane box inside.Opening the box again, I saw two booklets with fiery red covers that looked like scripts lying inside.
Chu Xun paused, picked up a book and turned it over, and three large characters in gold-plated running script came into view on the cover: Tage Xing.
Really a script.And it is a complete script that does not miss a single episode from the beginning to the end of the play.
Chu Xun's heart skipped a beat.After standing still and thinking for a long time, I finally slowly opened the cover.
Another half month passed, and the weather became more and more refreshing.Going further south, there is still some heat and humidity left in summer.
The crew of "Tap Ge Xing" held the opening ceremony in Qinghe Film and Television City.The actor's last play has not yet finished.Chu Xun and other actors paid respects.
After the ceremony, it will be officially launched.Chu Xun had no show that afternoon, so he went back to the hotel to rest first.His alcohol addiction has not been completely cured.After drinking a little wine, he fell asleep.Just as she was about to go to bed for a while, the doorbell rang suddenly.
Chu Xun frowned.He deliberately ignored it, but the people outside the door refused to give up.He kneaded the bridge of his nose and walked over to open the door in a daze.Seeing the coming person clearly at a glance, he was quick-witted from head to toe: "Brother Xiaochen? Why do you..."
Before finishing speaking, Fu Jingchen pushed open the door and stepped into the room, locked the door with his backhand, and asked Chu Xun in a deep voice, "Why do you want to accept Yueying's play?"
Fu Jingchen looked very serious.Chu Xun was stunned by his question.After standing still for a while, it suddenly occurred to me that Yuntian's biggest competitor in the industry seems to be Yueying Media, the producer of "Tage Xing".
Chu Xun seemed like a primary school student who had done something wrong, and he lowered his voice a few times, "...I, I did not consider the relationship between Yueying and Yuntian before... If I can think of this level, I won't accept..."
Six years ago, Yuntian and Yueying were in conflict.In recent years, a lot of hot money has flowed into the entertainment industry, and the two companies are both giants in the industry, so the competition can only intensify.
Fu Jingchen still frowned, "Who told you this?" Chu Xun's eyes widened again, his pupils were exceptionally clear and moist, revealing his guilt without a doubt.This made him look a little naive.Stare intently at the other person's eyes, even a little blankly.Fu Jingchen couldn't help sighing softly, raised his hand and tapped Chu Xun's forehead, and said warmly: "I'm still a little fool..."
Chu Xun still apologized, "I'm sorry..."
Fu Jingchen shook his head and stopped him, "Rongrong, it's not what you think. I rushed past today, and I didn't mean to blame you." After thinking for a moment, he continued: "Yueying's usual way of doing things, back then you should I have also heard about it. This company has never been friendly enough to non-signed artists."
When Fu Jingchen said this, Chu Xun suddenly woke up.Not long after his debut that year, he did hear an assistant director unintentionally mention that the three companies, Yuntian, Yueying, and Hanxing, are evenly matched and have their own strengths. Among them, Yueying has the most domineering style.The assistant director even said bluntly that unless the artists of other companies are lucky enough, it is best not to accept the film of Yueying.Otherwise, when it comes to the publicity period, the skin will always be peeled off.
Chu Xun felt relieved.He smiled and said indifferently: "Will it affect Yuntian? That's good."
Fu Jingchen frowned even tighter, "That's good?"
"Well... I just want to film with peace of mind. What can they do to me? Brother Xiaochen...you don't have to worry about it."
"What can I do to you?" Fu Jingchen felt that he was talking to each other, and gave Chu Xun a stern look, "Yueying is a popular artist in her own family. The illegitimate son of Chairman Yueying. He debuted for four years and has been hovering in the second line. No matter what, he has to rely on this drama to jump to the first line. What good can you do if you fall into their hands?"
Chu Xun's eyes suddenly brightened, "An illegitimate child? Xiao Yuming is actually an illegitimate child?"
Fu Jingchen's mouth twitched slightly.For a moment, I just felt that Chu Xun had never been so convenient, and he was as cute as before.But it's too cute, it seems like it's never grown up, and it's really a headache.He simply stopped talking, walked to the depths of the room, and directly dragged the suitcase that Chu Xun hadn't opened yet.
Chu Xun was still shocked by Xiao Yuming's illegitimate child status.Fu Jingchen dragged the suitcase to the door, and he just woke up, and hurried to catch up, "No, no, no. I signed the contract. You can't break the contract without authorization."
Fu Jingchen went to twist the door lock, "The contract will be handled by Yuntian's legal department. You don't have to worry about it."
Chu Xun was really anxious, and reached out to grab the lever, "But I don't want to break the contract. I like this character very much!"
Although it only took half a month from receiving the script to the start of filming, Chu Xun has studied and read the script several times.In order to conform to the demeanor of the ancients, the actors of the Peking Opera Club of Huan Qing gave pointers on their figures.He had already made full preparations for He Fangliu, and never thought of giving up halfway.
Fu Jingchen looked back at Chu Xun with an expression that could not be refused, "Rongrong, if you want to act, I will have a better and fuller role for you. This one, no."
After he finished speaking, he opened the door, as if he didn't want to communicate with Chu Xun at all.
Chu Xun's temperament has never been gentle enough.These years outside were only enough to smooth his outermost layer of edges and corners.Besides, with his current state, every character he meets may be the last one.How could he be willing to give up?
Chu Xun raised his hand and pressed the door panel firmly, and said in a low voice: "My business is up to me. I'm going to act in this one!"
Fu Jingchen's hands gripped the door lock tightly, and his knuckles turned white from too much force.He and Chu Xun looked at each other.The eyes of both of them were full of flames.After a long time, Fu Jingchen closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then opened his eyes again, and tried to slow down his tone, "Rongrong, you are still too young. Maybe you still can't imagine how nasty some tricks in the circle can be..."
"Ha, I wouldn't have guessed it?" Chu Xun let out a sudden laugh, sharp and piercing, as if sarcasm, "Do you really think that I am still nineteen or twenty years old, with that innocent and stupid Rongrong? After leaving C city, What else have I not seen?"
People who have been ruined, lost their dignity, and struggled to earn a living at the bottom of society, what kind of filth can they not see?
The smile on Chu Xun's lips slowly outlined bitter lines, "I'm afraid I've seen too much, and I'll scare you if I tell you. My second young master."
Fu Jingchen's face faded completely.The mocking "Second Young Master" sounded like heavy snow, covering and extinguishing the fire in his eyes.He suddenly felt cold all over.The whole person seemed to be frozen.
"I'm sorry. I lost my temper..." Chu Xun couldn't see Fu Jingchen sad.And he was sober-minded, Fu Jingchen made this trip on purpose, always for his own good.Although this kindness, Chu Xun was unwilling to accept it again.
"Brother Xiaochen, I will never give up on what I really want to do. You know this too, right?"
Fu Jingchen's lips moved slightly.
Chu Xun smiled, and said: "Although I also know that this is not a good habit... Many times, it will make my head hurt..." Chu Xun touched Fu Jingchen's face with his eyes, the eyes were gentle and desolate , just like the love that burned to ashes, "But if you don't give it a try, how can you let yourself give up? So, I can only say sorry. I will continue to act in the drama of Tagexing."
As an actor, he doesn't want to care about anything other than acting, and he doesn't need to care about it.As long as he can enjoy the performance, he is extremely happy.
The stiff body regained consciousness.From the limbs and bones, there were waves of deeper stinging pain.Fu Jingchen met Chu Xun's gaze, and could only softly call his name, "Rongrong..." It seemed to be pleading, but also seemed to be the pain of knowing that he would be completely lost.
Chu Xun took the suitcase from Fu Jingchen.Still smiling, he took the initiative to say goodbye to Fu Jingchen like a mature man, "I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while. Why don't we stop talking here today. And..." He turned his head and let his eyes free Fu Jingchen's pale face moved away, "If it's not necessary in the future, we...don't meet again."
No one moves.No one spoke.Perhaps half a day had passed, the door was finally opened and then gently closed again.
Chu Xun let go, and the suitcase fell to the ground.Without turning his head, he walked quickly and threw himself on the bed, burying his face deep in the quilt.
Over the past week, the ancient puppet crew who had previously handed over the outline of the script to Chu Xun contacted Chu Xun in various ways every day, trying their best to persuade him to take the role of Dongchang Changgong.The director even came to the door in person and said frankly that apart from Chu Xun, no one in the entertainment industry today can play the He Fangliu in his heart.In order to invite Chu Xun to the film crew, the director also took the initiative to promise that he would raise Chu Xun's salary to 400 million.
