[Interstellar] Rise of a Monk

Chapter 7: The Protagonists Gather

Three days passed in a flash.

Xia Qiulai, who had been squatting in the dormitory for three days, had breakfast and then set off for the shooting location.

When Xia Qiulai arrived, the director, calmly, was instructing the field staff to make preparations, the makeup artist and others were already in place, and the screenwriter Xifeng was talking to them.

"Here we come! Makeup first, try to get it done in the morning, and go to dinner in the afternoon!" Seeing Xia Qiu coming from the corner of his eyes, Xifeng immediately called for someone to come over—"Where's the costumer?"

The make-up artist who was chatting with Xifeng before gave a "puchi" sound, and a bright smile appeared on her beautiful face. She obviously knew Xifeng very well, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay! Leave it to us! You 'screenwriter' and others Just watch."

After all, she recruited a young man and asked him to lead Xia Qiulai into the locker room: "You are the male No. [-] Rong Nan, right? Go in with Xiaotian and change clothes."

Xia Qiulai smiled at her, thanked her, and left with the one named "Xiaotian".

Sun Xiaotian is a member of the clothing division. He looks young, but he is actually 40 years old this year, double the age of "Xia Qiulai", but in this era, he is still young.Wang Lulu, a beautiful makeup artist, is the leader of the group of makeup artists outside. She has cooperated with the group of costume artists led by his boss for many years and belongs to the same studio.This time, they were "borrowed" by West Wind.

In the interstellar era, science and technology are advanced. As long as the design is done, a set of clothes and jewelry can be made in at most two days.

They had done a few templates before deciding on the actors.After being determined, adjustments and modifications are made on the original basis, and the design drawing can be completed in less than a day, and the finished product can be harvested the next day.

When assisting Xia Qiulai to change costumes, Sun Xiaotian kept talking and added a lot of knowledge to him.After all, the original owner had always been just a walk-on before, coming and going in a hurry, no one cared about him, and no one talked to him about it.

"The role of Rong Nan originally had three templates, namely Dahong, Dazi and Xuanhei. After confirming that you will play the role, we decided to use black clothes with gold thread. Looking at it now, our vision is indeed right!"

Sun Xiaotian clicked his tongue.He just changed his clothes, hadn't put on a wig, put on makeup, and hadn't entered the state of acting. The previous "good-looking ordinary college student" suddenly changed his whole spirit.

"No one in the industry knows the name of 'Red Sleeve'. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to cooperate with 'Red Sleeve'. This is something worth showing off."

Xia Qiulai adjusted the costumes in front of the tall mirror, and said half-truths and half-false words.He really didn't expect that the crew of "Yi Xian Ji" who claimed to be "all newcomers" could invite the famous "Red Sleeve".

"Red Sleeve" belongs to Moxiang Studio, and is one of the five highest-level makeup design teams in the empire entertainment circle.And Moxiang Studio belongs to the national male god Mo Wen.

High level naturally has high social status, "red sleeves" are not easy to please!They generally only work for Mo Wen and Moxiang's artists, and only a few times they will take over work outside the studio - this also requires a connection with Moxiang's internal staff, or a relationship.

So, is the crew of "Yi Xian Ji" related to Mo Xiang Studio, or does it have a huge background?

Sun Xiaotian had heard a lot of similar good things, he just smiled and signaled that Xia Qiulai could go to the dressing room to do makeup and styling.

Xia Qiulai expressed his thanks naturally.

Walking out of the dressing room and walking to the dressing room, I heard the first female lead and the second male lead have come and are changing clothes now, but the unknown first male lead and the second female lead have not yet arrived.

"All right!"

Xia Qiu, who returned to reality from the empty state, looked at the mirror in front of him, staring at the expressionless "Rong Nan" in the mirror, the corners of his lips moved slightly, and he smiled wantonly, full of evil spirit.

Tsk, this look is really villainous.

In the mirror, he was wearing a black wide-sleeved robe, with thin golden lines outlining complex and beautiful dark patterns—this costume is beautiful, but unfortunately it is very inconvenient to fight.

Rong Nan has shiny black waist-length hair tied behind the back with a plain silk strip, the bangs in front of his forehead are combed to the left, and the highlights are dyed wine red—this headgear feels like real hair.

Rong Nan's complexion is paler than that of "Xia Qiulai", but her lips are reddish, and she wears "contact lenses" with dark purple eyes, eyeliner, and flesh-colored-eyeshadow near the corners of her eyes - I should really be thankful for Interstellar All kinds of weird eye and hair colors are not popular in the world.

Because he is currently the only one who does the complete set, and the photo shoot will not start until everyone has finished styling, so he has some free time.

Xia Qiulai decided to find a place to squat outside and look at the set.

After opening the door, Xia Qiulai couldn't help but think, this world is really small when he saw the figure walking towards the dressing room next door.

"Wen Zihan?"

That's right, he actually saw one of the original owner's roommates here, rich and handsome Wen Zihan, is this person also a member of the crew of "The Story of the Immortal Game"?Thinking that the only main character that the crew hadn't announced was the pre-appointed male lead, Xia Qiulai felt as if he knew something.

"Xia Qiu is here."

Wen Zihan had undoubtedly seen Xia Qiulai as well, and he wasn't even curious why the latter appeared here.

"You are Yu Ran?"

"Ah."

Very good, "mysterious man No. [-]" has appeared.

Xia Qiulai and Wen Zihan just greeted each other, after all, the latter was still in a hurry to make a model.

He counted with his fingers, and now there is only the second female lead who has not yet arrived.Wen Zihan arrived by stepping on it, and the second female lead was late no matter if she arrived in the next second or later, the only difference was how long she was late.Wasn't she afraid of making a bad initial impression by being late to the start?

The "good student" Xia Qiulai, who has never been late, looked at the "second female" who came in a hurry and secretly clicked his tongue.

"Yi Xian Ji" is a short play, but it is very meticulous in details.

This was Xia Qiulai's thoughts after seeing the looks of Zhuang Yan who played the leading female role and Wu Keyu who played the second male role.

The costumes of the brothers and sisters in the play are naturally similar, they are all the same blue and white suit, which is to show the different personalities of their owners in the subtleties.

The innocent Jun Xiangxiang likes beautiful things - that's why her first love is Yu Ran instead of Mu Tianqi. Her clothes are embroidered with very beautiful patterns and two wooden hairpins. The workmanship is low-key and gorgeous , with a flower-shaped stud on each earlobe.According to the script, she made it up by herself.

Mu Tianqi was quite serious when he put on a serious look, but it's a pity that he is only three seconds handsome.His clothes are not as varied as Jun Xiangxiang's, but they are eye-catching enough because he has no sleeves... The white long sleeves are cut off directly, exposing two arms.According to the script, this is because Mu Tianqi's attribute is fire, so he looks cool.

Xia Qiulai was chatting with the obviously nervous and excited Zhuang Yan, and Wu Keyu occasionally interjected a few words.

The reason why Zhuang Yan was able to take the role of Jun Xiangxiang is probably because she is almost exactly the same as Jun Xiangxiang.As for Wu Keyu, Xia Qiu came to check. The former has been on the stage for several years, which is longer than Wen Zihan's, but unfortunately, he has been lukewarm and indifferent.But in a group of "pure newcomers", he is enough to stand out from the crowd. He is mature, has excellent psychological quality, and has no airs.

He couldn't help sighing, how did a good little fresh meat become old fritters!

Xia Qiulai was sizing up his future "teammates", so the others were sizing up each other.

Except Zhuang Yan who thinks everyone is very nice.

Wen Zihan is the most famous in the crew, his character and so on have been picked out long ago, Zhuang Yan is too simple and easy to understand, Cheng Yaer, who is late, is still catching up with styling, Wu Keyu can only think about Xia Qiulai - although the two of them There is no direct rivalry between them.

Wu Keyu made his debut for several years, but because no one praised him hard, his position has always been awkward.Wen Zihan, who was almost two years later than him, was able to get the Star Newcomer Award, but he didn't even get nominated.He thought that there was not much difference in strength between him and Wen Zihan himself, but Wen Zihan was from the Wen family, and he was just a commoner, so the other party could win the award, but he couldn't.

This time he chose the crew of "Yi Xian Ji" because of the secret persuasion of a friend of his.His good friend grew up with him, and that person is not an actor but a reporter. This time, when he got the news that Wen Zihan would be the leading man in a short play, he told him specially.Wu Keyu is eager to compete with Wen Zihan in the same play, this is an opportunity.Knowing that the crew invited school students to audition, he participated while he was still studying.The only pity is that the two characters available are not the best choices.

Neither director Calm Rong nor screenwriter Xifeng Wu Keyu have ever met.However, he also saw that the crew was pretty good, and they really wanted to do great things.In the interstellar era, you can shoot anything casually and put it on Skynet, but the quality is uneven, which can be described as mud and sand.At present, the quality of this so-called "newcomer" crew is considered to be above average.Not only Wen Zihan was invited, but the "red sleeves" were also invited!He was curious as to who would be behind the background.Until now, they don't know who the investor is. After signing the contract, they are not afraid that they will not get the money.

The reason why Wu Keyu chose the male second is very simple. The "martial arts" of the male third requires him not to meet the standard.After getting the complete script, he comforted himself that although the third male and the first male were real "opponents", in terms of rival plays, there were still more male twos who followed the first male almost throughout the play.

The biggest difference between the interstellar world and the modern world is high technology. Many things that the modern world cannot do can be done in the interstellar world.However, because of this, the interstellar people demand truth even more.One of the reasons why the virtual idols that were once all the rage finally ended up in a state of collapse—compared with the virtual idols that could only "survive" in Skynet, the interstellar people want to live like them, that they can see and touch. people.

An actor is not necessarily an all-rounder, but there will always be one or two special projects.Those who are not good at it have to use a substitute.Although some people are dissatisfied, they also know that there is no perfect person.Even the national male god Mo Wen, he can't do it.

In the interstellar era, there are many more certificates that can be tested than in modern times, and there are a lot of amateurs and professionals.Amateur and professional are two completely irrelevant lines. "Amateur" is for the hobbyist alliance to play for fun, and it is only valid in their respective clubs; All human beings will agree.

"Martial arts" is one of the items that can be assessed. It is divided into "fighting"-practical combat type, "theory"-academic research type, and "fancy style"-performance type, ranging from one to nine from low to high. order.And "Xia Qiulai" was able to barely get along because he had passed the "Martial Arts" test to prove that he was a fourth-level professional in "Martial Arts Fighting" and a sixth-level professional in "Martial Arts Fancy Style", which was more than enough for a star to be a martial artist.

The role of Rong Nan requires the third level of "Martial Arts Fancy Style" or the first level of "Martial Arts Fighting".

Only Wu Keyu, who was in the second level of the "Martial Arts Fancy Style" major, failed completely.

It is not surprising that Wu Keyu, who arrived early, found that there were people who were earlier than him.When he came out, he only saw Xia Qiulai standing aside watching the field work.

In Wu Keyu's view, Xia Qiulai is gentle on the surface, but he is not clear about it.He could tell that Xia Qiulai was not really gentle, but what kind of person he was, he couldn't get to the bottom of it for the time being.

As for Xia Qiulai, he just showed a gentle side because others were not familiar with the original owner.

The original owner looked gentle, but deep down he was very stubborn, he would rather bend than bend.This kind of temperament may be quite suitable for those sword lunatics in the practice world, but unfortunately in the interstellar world, in the drama school, and in the entertainment circle, unless there is a background and a backstage, they can't get along.

Xia Qiulai compared everything about the original owner, and he was sure that it would be fine for the original owner to take the fifth level of "Fighting" or the seventh level of "Fancy Style" or even higher.Generally speaking, if "Fighting" is high, "Theory" and "Fancy" will be higher.Except that "theory" is a type of research, there is no need to take the "postgraduate entrance examination" and "graduate entrance examination" in Interstellar.

Under the guidance of his own father and tempered by the army, the original owner has at least a level five. "Fancy" is not very practical, it just looks good, and the movements are more complicated but simple than "fighting".The reason why he didn't take the exam again was very simple, because he was secretly targeted, and he really didn't know what kind of background the original owner had.
