Chapter 46 "National Movie King": (2)
Outside Xie's house, suddenly, a big box was thrown out, followed by a man who was also kicked out, it was Xie Yan himself.
"Get out, leave the door of Xie's house, from now on Xie's house will treat you as no one." A roar came from the door.
"Dad..." Xie Yan picked up the box on the ground and shouted towards the door.
"I'm not your father." A cold snort came from inside.
"Mom, my dad wants to drive me out of the house?"
"Stinky boy, will you get out? If you don't, don't blame me for being rude."
"Okay, I'll get out, I'm afraid of you." Xie Yan said helplessly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was closed with a 'bang'.
Xie Yan knew that his father was determined, and this time he insisted on giving in.But he really can't be convinced, entering the entertainment circle is his mission, he can't just give up the mission without even trying!
Forget it, the old man will be angry for two days, don't worry about it.
Xie Yan took out his mobile phone and called his elder brother, and the call got through after a while.
"Hello?" On the other end, Xie Sheng was still at work, and he was a little surprised when he suddenly received a call from his younger brother.
"Brother, Dad kicked me out, I have nowhere to go, and my supplementary card has also been suspended, brother, please lend me some money."
"You first say what did you do to make Dad stop your card?"
"I said I'm going to pursue my dream..." Before Xie Yan could finish speaking, Xie Sheng interrupted him.
"What dream are you chasing?"
After a moment of silence, Xie Yan replied.
"I plan to go to the entertainment industry to become a movie star."
"Oh, that card is fine. Your brother and I are very busy. Don't make trouble, go home early and confess to Dad." After speaking, Xie Sheng quickly hung up the phone.
"Brother, hey, brother..." Xie Yan was so breathless that he could hardly catch his breath. Is this really his real brother?
Come on, my brother is also unreliable, as for my sister because of Jiang Yun a year ago, oh no, it was Xie Yun, because of the fact that Xie Yun returned to Xie's house a year ago, the siblings also had a estrangement, and now they ignore each other.
Xie Yan was kicked out of the house, so he could only carry his luggage and walk out of the community.
Along the way, Xie Yan called all his good buddies, but everyone agreed on the same thing. Good brothers belong to good brothers, but they didn't ask for money.Some people even revealed to Xie Yan that Mr. Xie from your family called their families one by one, and whoever dares to borrow Xie Yan's money will never try to enter Xie's house in the future.These young people have parents and elders behind them, even if they don't want to go to Xie's house, it doesn't mean that the parents behind them don't want to go to Xie's house, so they can only help Xie Yan spiritually, and advise Xie Yan to admit his mistakes to his old man early go home.
But these people didn't know that Xie Yan really couldn't go back.Xie Yan had been delayed for a year in dealing with Xie Yun's matter before, and now he really couldn't delay anymore, there was not enough time to delay, so in desperation, Xie Yan had no choice but to hang up the phone, not wanting to ask his friends for help.
But Mr. Xie is really ruthless. In order to prevent Xie Yan from going to the entertainment industry, he not only stopped Xie Yan's supplementary card, but also forbade others to lend him money.In this intelligent world, most people don't bring any money when they go out, and Xie Yan is the same. After being kicked out of his house, he now doesn't even have a dollar in his pocket.
Fortunately, he has a good niece. Xie Yun felt anxious when she heard her current father say that Xie Yan was kicked out of Xie's house by the old man.But she was a boarding student in a public school, and she didn't bring much money to school. She didn't have a lot of money, so she could only ask her classmates to borrow some money, and made up 3000 yuan. She quietly contacted Xie Yan and went to her school gate to get the money.
"Uncle, I still have 3000 yuan here, you can use it first. If it is not enough, I have some savings when I go home on weekends, and I will give it to you." Xie Yun said anxiously through the iron gate of the school.
Xie Yan tossed and tossed for a day, but didn't borrow a dime, and only his niece Xie Yun remembered to give him some money, and suddenly felt his face was burning and panicked, and he couldn't hold on.No matter how big a person is, he still needs to rely on a junior to help him.
But he is not a hypocritical person, he really couldn't think of a way, took the money and said to Xie Yun.
"Enough, Yunyun, I will pay you back as soon as my uncle has money."
"Uncle, please don't say such things, we are a family, we will not pay back whatever we say, and the 3000 yuan is not as much as a piece of clothing you bought for me casually before. That is, I am in school now, I don't have much money in my hand, when I get home, I will give you all the money in my piggy bank, I have a lot of money in my piggy bank." Xie Yun said quickly, but after she finished speaking, she remembered another thing : "Uncle, Dad said you were arguing with Grandpa, what are you trying to pursue as an actor? Is it true?"
Xie Yan nodded and answered her: "It's true, if I don't make a career, I won't go back to Xie's house, so don't try to persuade me like your father."
Xie Yun: "..."
Although Xie Yun couldn't understand why my uncle wanted to act, it didn't affect Xie Yun's unconditional support for him.A year ago, when Xie Yun was most desperate, Xie Yan took her away from the Jiang family. At that time, in just one month, she changed three families. It took a year to enlighten her, let her slowly let go of her heart and integrate into Xie's family, so no matter what Xie Yan wanted to do, she would support him.
"Okay, uncle, if you want to act, you can act. I will be your first fan from now on."
"Okay, uncle remembers."
The two exchanged a few words, and Xie Yan left. Xie Yun looked at Xie Yan's leaving back, and secretly wondered if there was enough money in her piggy bank?What if it's not enough for my uncle?Thinking of this, Xie Yun suddenly became worried.
******
With 3000 yuan in hand, Xie Yan first found a small hotel to settle down, then went to the Actors Union and registered actor information.
Actors in this world are divided into stars, that is, star actors, which are one-star, two-star, three-star, four-star, and five-star.A one-star actor is a walk-on, and everyone can register; a two-star actor is a 18-line actor who has a bit of a role in the scene, a little bit more advanced, a three-star actor is a supporting role, a four-star actor is a protagonist, and a five-star actor needs to be certified by awards. The actress, the actor, the queen, the emperor.
After coming to the actor's guild, Xie Yan downloaded the actor's guild app according to the staff's instructions. The actor's guild app is an app specially set up by the country for the actor industry. It has built-in film and television recruitment city, signing agency, and various shooting crews and other basic sections.Among them, the film and television recruitment city, as the name suggests, some crews can’t find actors and will recruit actors in the film and television city, and the actors submit their resumes, and those selected by the crew can receive an electronic version of the contract from the actor’s guild app and sign the contract.
The actor industry in this world is actually no different from ordinary industries, because there is an Actors Guild app controlled by the state that manages the actor industry.In the Actors Guild app, the salary threshold of each star actor is set by the state. For example, a one-star actor has a salary range of 10-100 yuan a day. The crew recruits a one-star actor and sets the salary in advance, which cannot be greater than the range Salary, but it cannot be less than the interval salary. When the crew sets the salary and transfers the payment to the Actors Guild app, the payment will be automatically sent to the actors when the time comes, and the tax will be deducted automatically if the salary is too high.Therefore, there will be no delays in wages from the crew, and because they are controlled by the state, sky-high wages, tax evasion and other messy things will not happen to destroy the balance of the industry.
Xie Yan also submitted his resume in the film and television recruitment city, but he is a whiteboard actor, and he didn't know how to submit his resume, so he followed the staff's guidance and randomly sent his resume to several crews in the nearest film and television city. , the staff looked at him and said with regret.
"You haven't acted before, so it's probably hard to get admitted at the beginning. I suggest you wait a few more days. If no one admits you within a week, I think you..."
She hadn't finished speaking when she heard the notification sound of the actor's guild app on Xie Yan's phone.
"The crew of "Sword Breaks the Sky" invited you to play a role as a character, do you accept?"
"The crew of "White Orchid" invited you to play a role in the role, do you accept?"
The staff immediately shut up.
Xie Yan said thank you to the staff, and then left the actor's guild center. Along the way, Xie Yan checked the invitations of two crews. "Sword Breaks the Sky" invited him to play a dead body, with a salary of 80, and the daily end; "White Orchid" Invite him to play the role of a passenger on the bus, with a salary of 60, and the end of the day.One morning session and one afternoon session just happened to be staggered.
Xie Yan thought about it, accepted the invitations of the two crews, and then rushed to the crew of "Sword Breaks the Sky" in the morning show without stopping.
Along the way, Xie Yan could still hear that there were many character invitations one after another. He was still a little puzzled. Didn't the eldest sister of the actors' union say that it was difficult to receive invitations?In the ten minutes since he rushed to the crew, several crew invitations had already appeared, and even Xie Yan had to turn off the notification because it was too noisy.
Half an hour later, Xie Yan came to the recruitment office of "Sword Breaks the Sky", and saw a fat middle-aged man with a job card hanging around his neck, which said Casting Director.
"Hello, director, I'm No. 082, and I've received an invitation to play the role of a corpse."
The casting director was startled when he saw Xiao Xinnen in front of him, and then quickly looked through the extras recruited by the crew, No. 082, and it really was this face.He didn't say anything, recruited an assistant, and said.
"Xiaohong, take him to make up and change clothes."
"Yes, Director Zhang."
Then, the assistant came to the make-up group with the words of thanks, only to see that the backstage of the make-up group was in chaos.
"What about the blood bag, prepare it for the actors."
"Xiao Lin, give him a more rough look, this makeup effect looks too fake from the camera."
"Then what, is there still a dead body?" Someone shouted.
The assistant quickly replied: "Yes, there is another one here." After she finished speaking, she took her thank you words and rushed to the site that specializes in the management of makeup artists for dead bodies.
After passing by, the make-up artist looked at Xie Yan, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, and asked the assistant, "Is this a dead body trick?"
"Yes, Director Zhang asked me to bring her over to make up and change clothes." The assistant nodded.
Although the make-up artist was surprised that Xie Yan was good-looking, but there are many handsome men and women in the entertainment industry, and she is not in love with Xie Yan. Now that she is working, how can she care about whether Xie Yan is handsome or not?
"Okay, don't move, I'll put on your makeup first."
"Well, thank you." After thanking him, Xie Yan closed his eyes and let the other party toss.
The makeup artist didn't delay, and quickly smeared on Xie Yan's face, and soon his handsome face was completely unrecognizable. After putting on makeup, Xie Yan changed his costume.
After some preparations are ready, they will be in charge of this big scene, and dispatch the assistant director of the actors, and gather people together to tell them how to act as a dead body.
"Remember, after the dead body dies, the chief director doesn't call the card, and he is determined not to move? Do you understand?"
"understood."
"Brothers, wait for the arrangement first, and we'll be in the scene later." The assistant director said.
The chief director is still filming another scene. The casting director has to choose the role first, and the makeup team and scheduling team also have to assist the actors, waiting for the chief director to give orders at any time.
After waiting for about half an hour, the chief director shifted positions and started filming this big show with a total of 82 extras.
There were 82 people, and it was too noisy. Although the assistant director had told me several times that people should not move after they were 'dead', there were still some tricks who moved after they were dead. This movement ruined all the shots, and the chief director was furious.
Xie Yan is also very helpless, he thinks it is quite difficult to play a dead body, this has been ng five times, can you hurry up?He is very tight on time, and there is another play in the afternoon.
Fortunately, for the sixth time, a group of actors finally did not show any signs of death, and the 'dead' were all over the place, and then the protagonist and supporting actors were in love among a group of dead bodies, oh no, it was a sadomasochistic relationship.
After the filming of the scene, the crew did not treat the actors badly, and they even managed a lunch. 82 lunches are also a big expense. I heard from other actors that this is a conscientious crew.Xie Yan was also hungry, and he didn't care that there were only vegetables, tofu and rice in the lunch box, so he picked up a box of lunch, and squatted in the corner with the other actors to eat.
Just when Xie Yan was enjoying his meal, the little assistant who received Xie Yan in the morning called out, "Number 82?"
Xie Yan looked up, and with a 'click', he saw the flash of the mobile phone camera.
"Hey, on the 82nd, I took a photo of you as a souvenir. What's your interaction number? Shall I send you the photo?"
The interactive account in this world is equivalent to the WeChat account in the previous world, and it is also the number one social account preferred by the people.
The girl in front of her smiled brightly, Xie Yan hesitated for a few seconds, and still sent the interaction number to the other party. The two added friends, and the other party sent him the photo and made a smiley face.
Xie Yan didn't reply to the other party. This interaction number is the number he created specially for this job, so the whiteboard is completely blank, and the other party can't see any information.
After eating, I took off my makeup and changed back to my previous clothes. I thanked the crew of "Sword Breaks the Sky" and went to the crew of "White Orchid".
Coming to the crew of "White Orchid", the process is similar to the crew of "Sword Breaks the Sky", but the casting director is an adult woman, and she doesn't show any expression when she sees Xie Yan.Probably due to lack of manpower, as the casting director, she personally went to the makeup team with a thank you note.
"Without makeup, make him look like an 'Internet addict boy'."
"Ok."
Half an hour later, Xie Yan looked at the shape of his chicken coop head, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said nothing.
The production team of "Magnolia" is a small modern production team, which cannot be compared with the production team of "Sword Breaks the Sky". It seems that there are not many people in the production team.
After finishing the styling, the casting director took him to the shooting scene, and asked him a lot of questions on the way.
"No. 07, can you play games?" No. 07 is Xie Yan's serial number in "Magnolia".
"will not."
"I see that you are a part-time actor who just registered today. You haven't filmed yet, have you?"
"made a bid."
"Filmed? I sent you a message in the morning, and you haven't filmed yet?" the casting director looked confused.
Xie Yan smiled and said, "I accepted a play this morning."
Suddenly, the casting director shut up.
Many people want to be actors, but they are stuck at the level of filming for the first time, because they have no filming experience and no recommendation from acquaintances, so they cannot enter the threshold of actors.This person is amazing. He registered as an actor on the first day, and he was not a student from the Academy of Film and Television, nor did he have any recommendation from acquaintances. He took on two plays in one day?How lucky!
If the casting director knew that Xie Yan had received invitations from seven or eight production crews a day, but because Xie Yan felt that the schedule was too tight, and he might not be able to line up, he would have rejected them all, and he would probably be stunned in surprise.
Xie Yan waited for about two hours, after the shooting time on the Actors Guild APP, the crew announced the start of filming.Xie Yan followed the casting director's instructions, sitting on the bus, obediently being an 'Internet addict boy', he didn't care about the earphones.
"Magnolia" is a modern drama. In this scene, the heroine is riding a bus, and the bus breaks down. Xie Yan, a secondary character, has a line: "What's wrong with this car?"
The bus driver replied: "The car exploded." So this scene is actually very simple.
Before the shooting, the heroine came late, the chief director was angry, but there was nothing he could do about it, but he couldn't fix the heroine, so the actor union couldn't make the heroine?The actors' union has a scoring system. If the actors don't take the money to make a good film, the crew will give the actors a score after the filming.If an actor's rating is too low, some star actors will be downgraded, and it is not easy to spend money.At the same time, if an actor encounters an unreliable crew, he can also counter-complain to the crew, which is a mutual check and balance.
"A!" The director ordered.
On the bus, the heroine got on the bus, and after a while, the car stopped suddenly.
Xie Yan's "Internet Addict Boy" finally unplugged his earphones, stuck his head out to look out, and found that the car was smoking, so he hurriedly asked the bus driver.
"Uncle, what's wrong with this car?"
The bus driver got out of the bus and took a look, came back and told everyone: "The car exploded." Then the other actors on the bus also cursed and got off together.
"Cut." The director shouted again, ending the shooting.
At this time, the director was sitting in front of the camera, watching the moment when the thank you words in the camera stick out of the window, he frowned slightly.
"This one-on-one actor..." Still learning to add acting to himself?
But this face looks pretty good, he is a good seed, the director has a little impression of this actor, but even so, there is no drama where the actor becomes the protagonist in one step, at most, he thinks that the actor has some potential.
This scene took two ng shots before the filming was finished. After the filming was over, it was already afternoon, and the casting director left a thank-you contact information.In the evening, Xie Yan took on another character role, but this movie was filmed in the middle of the night. He stayed up half the night in the crew and almost fell asleep. In the end, he managed to shoot a scene of less than 2 minutes, but due to some factors, he was ng At least 13 times, I completely lost my sleepiness.
Xie Yan entered the ranks of actors, and a day's career as an actor passed away.
Afterwards, Xie Yan spent a month in the film and television city, and got acquainted with various film crews, and met many people. Some casting directors even told Xie Yan that there would be good roles reserved for him in the future. It is a good seedling, and it is not a loss to invest in it in advance.And even though Xie Yan took on all the extra roles, on the basis of not destroying the extra roles given by the crew, he occasionally added some inconspicuous action performances and the like. The crew didn't say anything, and gradually Xie Yan touched Know how to add drama to yourself quietly.
One day, just as Xie Yan had just finished a play, suddenly a casting director on the interactive account sent a text message to Xie Yan.
"Yanzi, do me a favor. Something happened to a second-star actor in our crew, but his role is quite special. I can't find a suitable actor for a while. Do you have time? Come over and take a class." ? I'll give you a thousand salary?"
"Brother, you are being polite. You are asking me to help you. You are obviously promoting your younger brother. It's not that I can't see it. The salary and so on are free, as long as you have something to say hello."
"Hahaha, yes. That's fine, I sent an invitation, you remember to accept the play, the title of the film is "The Worst Flower"."
"no problem."
After the two communicated, not long after, Xie Yan received an offer for the killer role in "The Worst Flower".
Xie Yan accepted the role, and soon the actor union sent a message, reminding him to upgrade to a 'two-star actor'.
For actors below five stars, when the actor receives a role sent by the crew, which is higher than your own level, he will automatically be promoted to star.For example, Xie Yan is a one-star actor. If he had never received a two-star role from the crew, he would have been a one-star actor all his life, and his resume could only be one-star.
That's why Xie Yan said that the other party was promoting him. Even though the other party asked him to save the situation, he also helped him at the same time.
After being in the film and television city for a month, Xie Yan knew that there were people who worked in the film and television city for a year until they died and were still a one-star actor, and some people who worked in the film and television city for a day were picked up by some crews, and then received 2 stars, 3 stars, or even 4 star characters are possible.Xie Yan had been playing tricks for a month, and took on a two-star role, and his star rise was quite fast.
After coming to the crew of "The Worst Flower", the casting director sent him a script. Xie Yan read it and probably remembered that it was a police drama, in which Xie Yan played a killer, and there were not many scenes. There are very few lines, but there are fighting scenes. Xie Yan had to learn two moves from the martial arts instructor, and then was kicked away by the protagonist.Strictly speaking, it is the No. [-] pony of **oss.
"Yanzi, I will give you one day to learn routines from the martial arts master. You must take advantage of this opportunity. If you learn too slowly and the director is dissatisfied, he may give you a star. When you want to climb up, you can do it." It's difficult." The casting director instructed Xie Yan earnestly.After staying in this industry for a long time, the casting director also went through a lot of tricks and became a star, and then he performed poorly, and was thrown into the mud again by the crew.
Being promoted to a star is the right given by the crew. If an actor does not film well, he is sorry for the salary he gets, and he also has the right to be downgraded by the crew.Of course, the crew's judgment is unfair, and the actors will also complain.Even once it is found that the crew’s judgment is unfair, there are some unspoken rules about actors or the suppression of actors, the reputation of the entire crew will be ruined, and it will be boycotted by all the actors in the actors’ union, so most crews will not make fun of the entire crew .
Hearing what the casting director said, Xie Yan nodded obediently, indicating that he understood.
When he was brought to meet the chief director by the casting director, the chief director stared at Xie Yan's face for a moment, then said to the casting director.
"This is the one-star actor you mentioned?" It doesn't look like it! ,,
"Get out, leave the door of Xie's house, from now on Xie's house will treat you as no one." A roar came from the door.
"Dad..." Xie Yan picked up the box on the ground and shouted towards the door.
"I'm not your father." A cold snort came from inside.
"Mom, my dad wants to drive me out of the house?"
"Stinky boy, will you get out? If you don't, don't blame me for being rude."
"Okay, I'll get out, I'm afraid of you." Xie Yan said helplessly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was closed with a 'bang'.
Xie Yan knew that his father was determined, and this time he insisted on giving in.But he really can't be convinced, entering the entertainment circle is his mission, he can't just give up the mission without even trying!
Forget it, the old man will be angry for two days, don't worry about it.
Xie Yan took out his mobile phone and called his elder brother, and the call got through after a while.
"Hello?" On the other end, Xie Sheng was still at work, and he was a little surprised when he suddenly received a call from his younger brother.
"Brother, Dad kicked me out, I have nowhere to go, and my supplementary card has also been suspended, brother, please lend me some money."

She hadn't finished speaking when she heard the notification sound of the actor's guild app on Xie Yan's phone.
"The crew of "Sword Breaks the Sky" invited you to play a role as a character, do you accept?"
"The crew of "White Orchid" invited you to play a role in the role, do you accept?"
The staff immediately shut up.
Xie Yan said thank you to the staff, and then left the actor's guild center. Along the way, Xie Yan checked the invitations of two crews. "Sword Breaks the Sky" invited him to play a dead body, with a salary of 80, and the daily end; "White Orchid" Invite him to play the role of a passenger on the bus, with a salary of 60, and the end of the day.One morning session and one afternoon session just happened to be staggered.
Xie Yan thought about it, accepted the invitations of the two crews, and then rushed to the crew of "Sword Breaks the Sky" in the morning show without stopping.
Along the way, Xie Yan could still hear that there were many character invitations one after another. He was still a little puzzled. Didn't the eldest sister of the actors' union say that it was difficult to receive invitations?In the ten minutes since he rushed to the crew, several crew invitations had already appeared, and even Xie Yan had to turn off the notification because it was too noisy.
Half an hour later, Xie Yan came to the recruitment office of "Sword Breaks the Sky", and saw a fat middle-aged man with a job card hanging around his neck, which said Casting Director.
"Hello, director, I'm No. 082, and I've received an invitation to play the role of a corpse."
The casting director was startled when he saw Xiao Xinnen in front of him, and then quickly looked through the extras recruited by the crew, No. 082, and it really was this face.He didn't say anything, recruited an assistant, and said.
"Xiaohong, take him to make up and change clothes."
"Yes, Director Zhang."
Then, the assistant came to the make-up group with the words of thanks, only to see that the backstage of the make-up group was in chaos.
"What about the blood bag, prepare it for the actors."
"Xiao Lin, give him a more rough look, this makeup effect looks too fake from the camera."
"Then what, is there still a dead body?" Someone shouted.
The assistant quickly replied: "Yes, there is another one here." After she finished speaking, she took her thank you words and rushed to the site that specializes in the management of makeup artists for dead bodies.
After passing by, the make-up artist looked at Xie Yan, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, and asked the assistant, "Is this a dead body trick?"
"Yes, Director Zhang asked me to bring her over to make up and change clothes." The assistant nodded.
Although the make-up artist was surprised that Xie Yan was good-looking, but there are many handsome men and women in the entertainment industry, and she is not in love with Xie Yan. Now that she is working, how can she care about whether Xie Yan is handsome or not?
"Okay, don't move, I'll put on your makeup first."
"Well, thank you." After thanking him, Xie Yan closed his eyes and let the other party toss.
The makeup artist didn't delay, and quickly smeared on Xie Yan's face, and soon his handsome face was completely unrecognizable. After putting on makeup, Xie Yan changed his costume.
After some preparations are ready, they will be in charge of this big scene, and dispatch the assistant director of the actors, and gather people together to tell them how to act as a dead body.
"Remember, after the dead body dies, the chief director doesn't call the card, and he is determined not to move? Do you understand?"
"understood."
"Brothers, wait for the arrangement first, and we'll be in the scene later." The assistant director said.
The chief director is still filming another scene. The casting director has to choose the role first, and the makeup team and scheduling team also have to assist the actors, waiting for the chief director to give orders at any time.
After waiting for about half an hour, the chief director shifted positions and started filming this big show with a total of 82 extras.
There were 82 people, and it was too noisy. Although the assistant director had told me several times that people should not move after they were 'dead', there were still some tricks who moved after they were dead. This movement ruined all the shots, and the chief director was furious.
Xie Yan is also very helpless, he thinks it is quite difficult to play a dead body, this has been ng five times, can you hurry up?He is very tight on time, and there is another play in the afternoon.
Fortunately, for the sixth time, a group of actors finally did not show any signs of death, and the 'dead' were all over the place, and then the protagonist and supporting actors were in love among a group of dead bodies, oh no, it was a sadomasochistic relationship.
After the filming of the scene, the crew did not treat the actors badly, and they even managed a lunch. 82 lunches are also a big expense. I heard from other actors that this is a conscientious crew.Xie Yan was also hungry, and he didn't care that there were only vegetables, tofu and rice in the lunch box, so he picked up a box of lunch, and squatted in the corner with the other actors to eat.
Just when Xie Yan was enjoying his meal, the little assistant who received Xie Yan in the morning called out, "Number 82?"
Xie Yan looked up, and with a 'click', he saw the flash of the mobile phone camera.
"Hey, on the 82nd, I took a photo of you as a souvenir. What's your interaction number? Shall I send you the photo?"
The interactive account in this world is equivalent to the WeChat account in the previous world, and it is also the number one social account preferred by the people.
The girl in front of her smiled brightly, Xie Yan hesitated for a few seconds, and still sent the interaction number to the other party. The two added friends, and the other party sent him the photo and made a smiley face.
Xie Yan didn't reply to the other party. This interaction number is the number he created specially for this job, so the whiteboard is completely blank, and the other party can't see any information.
After eating, I took off my makeup and changed back to my previous clothes. I thanked the crew of "Sword Breaks the Sky" and went to the crew of "White Orchid".
Coming to the crew of "White Orchid", the process is similar to the crew of "Sword Breaks the Sky", but the casting director is an adult woman, and she doesn't show any expression when she sees Xie Yan.Probably due to lack of manpower, as the casting director, she personally went to the makeup team with a thank you note.
"Without makeup, make him look like an 'Internet addict boy'."
"Ok."
Half an hour later, Xie Yan looked at the shape of his chicken coop head, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said nothing.
The production team of "Magnolia" is a small modern production team, which cannot be compared with the production team of "Sword Breaks the Sky". It seems that there are not many people in the production team.
After finishing the styling, the casting director took him to the shooting scene, and asked him a lot of questions on the way.
"No. 07, can you play games?" No. 07 is Xie Yan's serial number in "Magnolia".
"will not."
"I see that you are a part-time actor who just registered today. You haven't filmed yet, have you?"
"made a bid."
"Filmed? I sent you a message in the morning, and you haven't filmed yet?" the casting director looked confused.
Xie Yan smiled and said, "I accepted a play this morning."
Suddenly, the casting director shut up.
Many people want to be actors, but they are stuck at the level of filming for the first time, because they have no filming experience and no recommendation from acquaintances, so they cannot enter the threshold of actors.This person is amazing. He registered as an actor on the first day, and he was not a student from the Academy of Film and Television, nor did he have any recommendation from acquaintances. He took on two plays in one day?How lucky!
If the casting director knew that Xie Yan had received invitations from seven or eight production crews a day, but because Xie Yan felt that the schedule was too tight, and he might not be able to line up, he would have rejected them all, and he would probably be stunned in surprise.
Xie Yan waited for about two hours, after the shooting time on the Actors Guild APP, the crew announced the start of filming.Xie Yan followed the casting director's instructions, sitting on the bus, obediently being an 'Internet addict boy', he didn't care about the earphones.
"Magnolia" is a modern drama. In this scene, the heroine is riding a bus, and the bus breaks down. Xie Yan, a secondary character, has a line: "What's wrong with this car?"
The bus driver replied: "The car exploded." So this scene is actually very simple.
Before the shooting, the heroine came late, the chief director was angry, but there was nothing he could do about it, but he couldn't fix the heroine, so the actor union couldn't make the heroine?The actors' union has a scoring system. If the actors don't take the money to make a good film, the crew will give the actors a score after the filming.If an actor's rating is too low, some star actors will be downgraded, and it is not easy to spend money.At the same time, if an actor encounters an unreliable crew, he can also counter-complain to the crew, which is a mutual check and balance.
"A!" The director ordered.
On the bus, the heroine got on the bus, and after a while, the car stopped suddenly.
Xie Yan's "Internet Addict Boy" finally unplugged his earphones, stuck his head out to look out, and found that the car was smoking, so he hurriedly asked the bus driver.
"Uncle, what's wrong with this car?"
The bus driver got out of the bus and took a look, came back and told everyone: "The car exploded." Then the other actors on the bus also cursed and got off together.
"Cut." The director shouted again, ending the shooting.
At this time, the director was sitting in front of the camera, watching the moment when the thank you words in the camera stick out of the window, he frowned slightly.
"This one-on-one actor..." Still learning to add acting to himself?
But this face looks pretty good, he is a good seed, the director has a little impression of this actor, but even so, there is no drama where the actor becomes the protagonist in one step, at most, he thinks that the actor has some potential.
This scene took two ng shots before the filming was finished. After the filming was over, it was already afternoon, and the casting director left a thank-you contact information.In the evening, Xie Yan took on another character role, but this movie was filmed in the middle of the night. He stayed up half the night in the crew and almost fell asleep. In the end, he managed to shoot a scene of less than 2 minutes, but due to some factors, he was ng At least 13 times, I completely lost my sleepiness.
Xie Yan entered the ranks of actors, and a day's career as an actor passed away.
Afterwards, Xie Yan spent a month in the film and television city, and got acquainted with various film crews, and met many people. Some casting directors even told Xie Yan that there would be good roles reserved for him in the future. It is a good seedling, and it is not a loss to invest in it in advance.And even though Xie Yan took on all the extra roles, on the basis of not destroying the extra roles given by the crew, he occasionally added some inconspicuous action performances and the like. The crew didn't say anything, and gradually Xie Yan touched Know how to add drama to yourself quietly.
One day, just as Xie Yan had just finished a play, suddenly a casting director on the interactive account sent a text message to Xie Yan.
"Yanzi, do me a favor. Something happened to a second-star actor in our crew, but his role is quite special. I can't find a suitable actor for a while. Do you have time? Come over and take a class." ? I'll give you a thousand salary?"
"Brother, you are being polite. You are asking me to help you. You are obviously promoting your younger brother. It's not that I can't see it. The salary and so on are free, as long as you have something to say hello."
"Hahaha, yes. That's fine, I sent an invitation, you remember to accept the play, the title of the film is "The Worst Flower"."
"no problem."
After the two communicated, not long after, Xie Yan received an offer for the killer role in "The Worst Flower".
Xie Yan accepted the role, and soon the actor union sent a message, reminding him to upgrade to a 'two-star actor'.
For actors below five stars, when the actor receives a role sent by the crew, which is higher than your own level, he will automatically be promoted to star.For example, Xie Yan is a one-star actor. If he had never received a two-star role from the crew, he would have been a one-star actor all his life, and his resume could only be one-star.
That's why Xie Yan said that the other party was promoting him. Even though the other party asked him to save the situation, he also helped him at the same time.
After being in the film and television city for a month, Xie Yan knew that there were people who worked in the film and television city for a year until they died and were still a one-star actor, and some people who worked in the film and television city for a day were picked up by some crews, and then received 2 stars, 3 stars, or even 4 star characters are possible.Xie Yan had been playing tricks for a month, and took on a two-star role, and his star rise was quite fast.
After coming to the crew of "The Worst Flower", the casting director sent him a script. Xie Yan read it and probably remembered that it was a police drama, in which Xie Yan played a killer, and there were not many scenes. There are very few lines, but there are fighting scenes. Xie Yan had to learn two moves from the martial arts instructor, and then was kicked away by the protagonist.Strictly speaking, it is the No. [-] pony of **oss.
"Yanzi, I will give you one day to learn routines from the martial arts master. You must take advantage of this opportunity. If you learn too slowly and the director is dissatisfied, he may give you a star. When you want to climb up, you can do it." It's difficult." The casting director instructed Xie Yan earnestly.After staying in this industry for a long time, the casting director also went through a lot of tricks and became a star, and then he performed poorly, and was thrown into the mud again by the crew.
Being promoted to a star is the right given by the crew. If an actor does not film well, he is sorry for the salary he gets, and he also has the right to be downgraded by the crew.Of course, the crew's judgment is unfair, and the actors will also complain.Even once it is found that the crew’s judgment is unfair, there are some unspoken rules about actors or the suppression of actors, the reputation of the entire crew will be ruined, and it will be boycotted by all the actors in the actors’ union, so most crews will not make fun of the entire crew .
Hearing what the casting director said, Xie Yan nodded obediently, indicating that he understood.
When he was brought to meet the chief director by the casting director, the chief director stared at Xie Yan's face for a moment, then said to the casting director.
"This is the one-star actor you mentioned?" It doesn't look like it! ,,
