Ye Can

Lin Zixi has always been a crowd pleaser. She looked at Meng Zhiqiu in a red wedding dress, and exclaimed, "Ms. Meng's outfit is very beautiful. She really deserves to be a beauty who can overwhelm the country and the city."

Even if it's just a commercial compliment, as long as it comes from Lin Zixi's mouth, it will make Meng Zhiqiu feel sincerely happy.

Ye Can grabbed his belt and stood at the door of the changing room. Seeing Meng Zhiqiu, who was obviously in high spirits, he clenched his hands into fists and deliberately coughed several times.

This movement, coupled with the sound of pushing the door before, successfully attracted the attention of the people present.Lin Zixi turned his head, saw Ye Can who was pulling his belt, and asked, "Ye Can? Do you want to help?"

Lin Zixi still hasn't forgotten that Ye Can ordered her around yesterday when she put on the costume for the first time.Seeing Ye Can's disheveled clothes at this time, she mistakenly thought that Ye Can needed her.

Meng Zhiqiu's gaze was cast over at the same time. Ye Can, who was about to nod in agreement, met Meng Zhiqiu's gaze and quickly made a decision: "No, I can do it myself."

After Ye Can finished speaking, she pulled the belt from side to side and fastened it fast.After finishing, Ye Can raised her head, looked at Meng Zhiqiu and said, "Okay, shall we go to the set now?"

Meng Zhiqiu set his eyes on his assistant Xiao Cai, Xiao Cai understood and reported the time accurately: "It's almost eight o'clock, sister Zhiqiu can go to the set to rehearse first."

Meng Zhiqiu nodded: "Then let's go for a walk first." After speaking, Meng Zhiqiu looked at Lin Zixi and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, come along too. I haven't seen Mr. Lin for a long time. I still want Mr. Lin to give me some advice." Woolen cloth."

Lin Zixi smiled politely: "It is my honor to be able to watch Miss Meng's live performance."

After a night of commercial boasting, Meng Zhiqiu and Ye Can appeared in front of the camera around eight o'clock.

Tonight is the main event, Hou Ming and Zhang Hao are on the set.After Meng Zhiqiu came to the set, Hou Ming asked the crew to prepare and arrange a scene.

Hou Ming is a cutting-edge director of commercial films in the industry. Before writing blockbuster commercial films, he spent a long time making low-budget horror films.His horror films win with color and atmosphere, and are well-known in the industry.

When Lin Zixi was in college, Hou Ming could be regarded as one of her favorite horror film directors.His storyboard shots and some picture composition are amazingly weird.

Probably because of his background in low-budget horror films, Hou Ming is particularly good at calculating expenses.He knows exactly which lenses cost money and which lenses can save money.Therefore, the commercial films he shoots will have a delicate atmosphere that does not waste a penny.

"On the Throne" is Hou Ming's third film.The great success of the previous two commercial works brought a lot of investment to "Above the Throne".Even with such a large budget, Hou Ming still maintained his usual careful budgeting style and spent all the budget wisely.

This is especially evident from the casting.

In this era that still firmly believes that traffic leads the box office, after Hou Ming selected Meng Zhiqiu, who is both traffic and word-of-mouth, to support the box office, the remaining male characters are all powerful actors who have won heavyweight awards and are not well-known.

Feng Jianming, who plays Cheng Wang Xiaoming, is a well-known low-key young actor in the industry.And the three male actors who play Xiao Ming's father, brother, and nephew have all had a deep cooperation with Hou Ming before, and they can be described as typical door-to-door actors.

These people are enough to form the team above the throne.But this time, Hou Ming, who had enough budget, had other plans.

Although these characters are beautiful enough to complete the film, Hou Ming feels that the highlights are not enough.The beauty is beautiful, and the plot is tense and dramatic enough, but there is one missing supporting role.

This supporting role is Xiao Can, the younger brother raised by Cheng Wang Xiao Ming.

In the original design, Xiao Can's mother is a beauty of a different race, so his face is extremely handsome.It looks graceful, like a jade man.But in fact, Xiao Can was indoctrinated with a lot of power during Xiao Ming's struggle for power.Therefore, although Xiao Can looks like an elegant and noble son, what is hidden under the skin is a giant beast of the abyss swallowed by power.

He is perverted, and he especially loves the wives of courtiers.He is paranoid, and for the sake of power, he can single-handedly bring up his elder brother.He is crazy, he just wants to reach the highest peak.

More importantly, he is a beautiful beast.

Hou Ming really likes this supporting role.So from the casting of actors to the start of filming, he has never given up looking for an actor who can play this supporting role.

Among the new generation of male actors in China, there are only a handful of them who are beautiful.Pretty and good at acting, that's just not at all.Hou Ming had no choice but to set his sights on the reverse column.

But young actresses can't play that kind of monster temperament captured by power, so Hou Ming procrastinated again and again, never deciding on the role of Xiao Can.

Until this evening, after another unsuccessful interview with an actress, he began to think about giving up the role of Xiao Can.

He had even begun to think that the ending of the story would let Xiao Ming be shot through the throne by an arrow while drinking and having fun, and die like his brother.

This kind of solution leaves blank space and has artistic conception, although as a commercial film, there must be some viewers who say they can't understand it.Hou Ming, who can make low-budget horror films, doesn't care about these things. While he wants to get a high box office, he also wants to complete the creation of his own works.

But at this time, Zhang Hao gave him a suggestion: "I think the role of Xiao Can is more reserved. Young actresses are not suitable, but do you want to look at the tricksters?"

Hou Ming didn't understand, so he asked, "A man playing tricks?"

Zhang Hao nodded, and as he spoke, he showed Hou Ming the shot of Ye Can playing the role of the soldier commander, which he took yesterday.Holding the mouse, Hou Ming repeatedly moved Ye Can's lens back and forth, and his eyes gradually lit up: "It's all natural, it's all natural!"

"This kind of perverted feeling, this kind of precise bloody killing in front of the camera, is really appropriate!"

Zhang Hao smiled, and his tone was quite proud: "I knew you would like this person's performance."

Hou Ming pointed to the computer screen and asked, "Who is this trick? Have you left his contact information?"

Zhang Hao smiled: "You've seen this person before, she just made a fuss with our crew today, and she's been playing tricks in the crew all afternoon."

Hou is slightly face-blind, so he is used to frequent actors. Ming looked at Zhang Hao in a daze: "Just the child at noon today? Is it true? Does she still have this acting skills?"

Zhang Hao nodded: "If you don't believe me, then take a look at all the scenes she filmed today."

After that, Hou Ming pulled out the scenes that Ye Can showed today and looked at them again.Sometimes she is a prostrate eunuch, sometimes a civilian fleeing in a hurry, and sometimes a radiant guard celebrating the new king's enthronement.

Ye Can has a different interpretation of each role.But these characters have a characteristic that makes Hou Ming amazed, that is, preparation, vividness, authenticity and believability.

It seems that the background board in this movie of hers has experienced these extravagant lives, without any trace of acting.

Hou Ming made a decision at that time: "After the filming is finished tomorrow, I will talk to her personally." He is a director who knows how to save money, so he won't be embarrassed to let her scold Ye Can just because he scolded Ye Can at noon Try this role.

As soon as Zhang Hao heard it, he gloated: "That's a bit difficult. I asked for you yesterday. She is a bit special. She doesn't want supporting roles, she just wants to play tricks."

Hou Ming was very surprised: "What is the origin of this person?"

Zhang Hao made an analysis with him: "She knows Meng Zhiqiu, and her temperament is that of a child from a wealthy family who has been carefully raised. I think she is probably a child of a rich family who came to play tickets."

Hou Ming thought about it, and decided not to look back: "It doesn't matter how old she is, whether she is here to play tickets. If you join my crew, you have to shoot well if you have the opportunity."

Hou Ming, who originally planned to contact Ye Can tomorrow, did not expect that the other party would come to play tricks again tonight.

This time, the trick is Meng Zhiqiu's initiative to add to Ye Can's scene.

The first scene filmed tonight was after Xiao Ming succeeded in seizing power, the little eunuch tremblingly came to Luo Ji to report the news of King Cheng's rebellion and the life and death of the emperor.

Luo Ji was wearing a wedding dress, sitting on a small couch and combing her hair in front of the mirror, with a calm expression.

Originally, in this group of shots, there was only Luo Ji played by Meng Zhiqiu.But after filming a scene, Meng Zhiqiu and Hou Ming suggested: "Director Hou, I think Luo Ji is the only one in the scene here, and it's a bit thin. You can put a little eunuch next to her, what do you think?"

Most of the actors who can follow the lead actor will have scenes where they can show their faces.This is a rare opportunity for those who don't know how many extras.

Thinking that Ye Can likes to play tricks, Meng Zhiqiu went along with the flow and gave her another chance.

Hou Ming is a director with a strong personal style, so Meng Zhiqiu seldom gives him advice on the set.But when she mentioned it, Hou Ming would probably agree.

After hearing Meng Zhiqiu's words, Hou Ming set his eyes on Ye Can who was beside Lin Zixi.Seeing Ye Can in eunuch uniform, he thought to himself, "Want a little eunuch? For that child?"

Meng Zhiqiu wasn't angry when his purpose was discovered, he just smiled and said, "What do you think then?"

Hou Ming raised his hand and stroked Bala's unshaven beard, and said in a deep voice, "It's fine, but I have a better arrangement."

"I'll give her one with lines, what do you think?"

Meng Zhiqiu was a little surprised: "There are lines?"

Hou Ming nodded: "Yes, let you have a rivalry with her."

After Hou Ming finished speaking, he asked his assistant to come over with a tablet and quickly typed his lines.After finishing typing, he handed the tablet to Meng Zhiqiu: "I watched her performance today and think she is very suitable."

Seeing the small script on the tablet, Meng Zhiqiu said in surprise, "This is..."

Hou Ming smiled: "It's just a trick, it's not a big deal. After running, let's see the specific situation."

"What's that kid's name, Ye Can?" Hou Ming said, beckoning to Ye Can: "Ye Can, come here, you're going to play tricks later, and you need to remember a word."

Ye Can, who was standing next to Lin Zixi, looked puzzled, why did she still have words, it was really troublesome.But when he looked at Lin Zixi beside him, he thought that this was an opportunity he finally got, so he sluggishly passed by.

Lin Zixi stood in the shadows, looked at Ye Can who was walking towards Hou Ming, and then glanced at Meng Zhiqiu.I thought, could it be that Meng Zhiqiu was holding Ye Can?

They should have only known each other for a day. When did they get along so well?
