Superstar Aspirations

Xiangshan Film and Television City, the crew of "Ambush".

In every crew, the most intense conflicts are often not actors and actors, or even directors and actors, but directors and investors.The investor pays the money, and the director is the core of the whole film. The former will often make some demands on the latter, and the latter will basically do everything possible for the former.

Unless it is a well-known director, the director will not object to most of the investors' suggestions.However, investors also want to make money, so they will not make any weird suggestions. This is the consensus in the circle.

However, this consensus does not apply to the "Ambush" crew.

Luo Zhentao soon got the specific news from Deputy Director Li. He had a cold face and suppressed his anger: "I don't know how Han Yanghao coaxed the investor, but now the investor wants to replace him. The other party participated in "Ambush "[-]% of the investment is now very tough, Director Zheng is not willing to do this, but the investor is also unwilling to give in."

The handsome and elegant young man narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "You just want to replace me?"

Luo Zhentao hesitated for a moment: "...Yes."

Although the breach of the contract is not good for the crew's reputation, it is generally not heard by the audience.Rong Xu's film salary was not very high at the beginning, and now it is easy for the investor to pay a liquidated damages.

Shaking his head silently, Rong Xu raised his head slightly, narrowed his eyes, and looked at Han Yanghao who was sitting there resting not far away, acting as if he didn't know anything.Suddenly the corners of his lips twitched, he chuckled lightly, and said, "Brother Luo, what did I offend him?"

Luo Zhentao was angry and puzzled again: "I don't know, you never quarreled with him at all."

Rong Xu looked at Han Yanghao's back for a long time. After a while, he sighed and said, "In this circle, there is no reason to hate someone. It's just that he has passed and crossed the line."

Throughout the morning, the crew of "Ambush" shut down.There are only two weeks left before the broadcast, and the crew has only shot three episodes of the plot so far, which is far from the bottom line of the TV station.

Director Zheng was so angry that he quarreled with Han Yanghao's agent directly in the crew, and even said "put down the stall and quit", but the agent still smiled and said: "Director Zheng, think about it again, This is President Li's request."

As for Han Yanghao, the old god has been sitting in his private lounge to rest, and has never appeared before.

Luo Zhentao naturally also participated in the discussion of Director Zheng, and he strictly asked investors to consider their own interests clearly.Breach of contract will be stigmatized in the circle, and it is very detrimental to investors, directors and actors themselves.

The three parties argued in the crew all morning.

Not far from them, Rong Xu held the script and looked at it calmly. From time to time, staff members passed by him for various reasons and said a word or two of comfort to him.

Deputy director Li, who specializes in managing actors, was sweating from anxiety. Seeing that the other side was too stagnant to operate, he had no choice but to come to Rong Xu, and said cautiously: "If the crew really breaks the contract, Rong Xu... you What do you want to do?"

The honest and strong middle-aged man looked at himself with sincere eyes, and his voice contained helplessness and guilt.Hearing this, Rong Xu finally raised his head and turned his eyes away from the script. He looked at Deputy Director Li seriously, his eyes fixed, as if he didn't know anything, and the clouds were calm.

Deputy Director Li did not expect that Rong Xu would react like this.Seeing the young man's calm and composed expression, his irritable mood inexplicably relaxed, and then he asked Rong Xu: "Brother Li, I remember that our still photos and clips should be posted on the Internet the day after tomorrow, and then posted on the TV station a week later. , play the propaganda in a loop?"

Deputy Director Li nodded as a matter of course: "Yes."

Hearing this, Rong Xu smiled, stood up, and said: "I once heard a foreign director say that in the best crew, the director always has to decide for himself, and the investors and producers have to do it. The only thing is to 'meet all the requirements of the director'. Always being so passive is not a good thing for any crew..."

Not far away, Director Zheng, Luo Zhentao, and Han Yanghao's managers were still arguing endlessly.But here, Deputy Director Li opened his eyes wide in surprise, looked closely at Rong Xu, and heard the boy say with a smile: "When I was reading the script today, I suddenly found that the name Huo Xi is very interesting. Brother Li, There is an old saying in China, misfortune is where good fortune rests, and good fortune is where misfortune subsides. Huo Xi's misfortune...maybe it's actually a blessing, which happens to be able to turn passivity into initiative."

There was a sudden roar in Deputy Director Li's mind. He was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered a text message his son once sent: [I think he is very good, please take care of him a little bit, don't let that kind of big-name I was bullied. 】

In the afternoon, the crew was still on hold.

The director, Luo Zhentao, and Han Yanghao's manager started a cold war, and the set was filled with embarrassment. Although the other actors sympathized with Rong Xu very much, and Zhang Tongtong wanted to help Rong Xu, they didn't have the strength to fight Han Yanghao at all, so they could only curse that Han Yanghao, who plays big names but has no character.

Only, Deputy Director Li was nowhere to be seen.

When Zhong Yi arrived at the crew of "Ambush" by car from Shuoshe Airport, he saw such a strange scene.The crew is quiet, everyone is doing trivial things, but no one is filming!

Isn't this normal? !

Zhong Yi rolled his eyes, and quickly walked into the crew. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find Rong Xu.

Zhong Yi is also a third-tier star. Someone in the crew recognized him, and he immediately pulled him along and asked, "I'm Rong Shao's friend, why haven't I met Rong Shao? I heard he's filming here. I'm here to visit the class." He said, holding up the cake box in his hand.

With the cute and coquettish tone and that white, tender and childish face, the staff member couldn't get angry with Zhong Yi at all, but thought this child was very cute.She quickly gave Zhong Yi directions: "I don't know who Rong Shao said, but you should come to find Rong Xu, he is reading the script there."

Zhong Yi looked in the direction of her finger, and suddenly saw a figure. He was taken aback for a moment, and then asked with a smile, "Where is it? Why didn't I see Rong Shao?"

The staff quickly pointed again: "It's the one in the military uniform, sitting on a chair and looking down at the script."

The smile on Zhong Yi's face suddenly froze.

After a while, he walked up to Rong Xu with the cake box.

The light was suddenly blocked by someone, Rong Xu couldn't help but raised his head, and suddenly saw a handsome and beautiful face.With big round eyes and slightly curly brown hair, this boy looks very cute, even too cute to be a man, he looks only sixteen or seventeen years old.

But Rong Xu knew that Zhong Yi was already 24 years old.

After closing the script, Rong Xu said with a light smile, "Long time no see, Zhong Yi."

As if he didn't expect the other party to be so calm, Zhong Yi was stunned suddenly, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes quickly, he quickly hid it, but all of them fell into Rong Xu's sight.He put the cake box aside, and sat carelessly beside Rong Xu, subconsciously wanting to grab Rong Xu's hand, but Rong Xu "inadvertently" raised his hand to release the script, which happened to be staggered.

Although Zhong Yi was a little surprised, he didn't think too much about it. He said in a sweet voice: "Young Master Rong, we haven't seen each other for so long, and you didn't even come to see me. I heard that you actually went to act. I'm so disappointed." Surprised, I didn't believe it at first, but later Zhang Feng showed me your makeup photos of "Chasing the Deer", and I believed it. How did you come to act, Rong Shao?"

Although the tone seemed intimate, when it came to "Chasing the Deer", Zhong Yi's voice was still a bit sharp.

Rong Xu looked at him with a smile, sat down a little beside him calmly, and said, "Filming is quite interesting."

The smile on Zhong Yi's face froze suddenly, he squeezed his fingers tightly, and then suppressed the anger in his heart.

interesting?

You are such a young master, if you want to enter the entertainment circle, then you can play, why are you competing for a role with him!Even if he's injured and can't act, then you just take it away from yourself?what is this?This world has never heard of the role of the gold master stealing people!

Zhong Yi lowered his head, his bangs drooped all of a sudden, covering the resentment in his eyes.He said aggrievedly: "Well, it's quite interesting. Rong Shao, you didn't tell me when you changed your phone. I came to you today to tell you... the thing you told me before, I think fine."

Rong Xu narrowed his eyes, but said nothing.

Zhong Yi waited for a while, but before the other party answered, he looked up strangely, only to see the other party still looking at him with a smile.

Zhong Yi was taken aback for a moment, then: "!!!"

Damn it, what are you laughing at, why does this Rong Xu feel something is wrong!

To be honest, Zhong Yi saw Rong Xu when he first entered the set.At that time, he only saw Rong Xu's side face, which was so handsome and beautiful, he thought it was some unknown celebrity.After hearing that it was Rong Xu, he suddenly became angry.

Isn't Rong Xu the young master who killed Matt?How did it suddenly become like this?

Zhong Yi was so angry that his nose was crooked in the makeup photo of "Chasing the Deer". He pointed to the photo and said several times to his manager Zhang Feng, "This is definitely a photoshopped one, the P's one is too fake."But now, seeing the other party's handsome and extraordinary appearance in military uniform, he didn't know what to say. He even felt... In terms of image and temperament, Rong Xu is more suitable for the entertainment industry than himself!

Obviously, it was Rong Xu who approached him with the role before, hoping to associate with him.He still finds it funny to see this kid's shy face when he is in love for the first time. Why is this kid so calm now?

Zhong Yi didn't know, the reason why Rong Xu answered him with a smile was because: he didn't know what the other party was talking about!

"That thing that was said"?

... which thing did you say?

However, Zhong Yi was obviously not as patient as Rong Xu, so he quickly changed the subject in embarrassment, and asked loudly, "It's so strange, why didn't you guys film a movie today? I heard from Brother Han that this movie is a weekly drama." , it will be aired soon."

Everyone was attracted by his voice at once.

Soon, Zhong Yi got the reason from his assistant.His eyes lit up, and he said to Rong Xu: "Young Master Rong, don't get angry with Brother Han, he sometimes has a little temper, and I have a good relationship with him. I'll talk to him, and he will know what to do. You Wait, I'll be back soon." As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Yi immediately got up and walked to Han Yanghao's private lounge, Liu Rongxu looked at him with a half-smile.

For an entire hour afterwards, Zhong Yi stayed in Han Yanghao's lounge and did not come out, and the so-called "I'll be back soon" did not come true at all.

The staff in the crew were all very strange, only the female number two, Yi Lan, quietly walked up to Rong Xu, and whispered to him: "The movie I acted in last year, Zhong Yi also participated in it, and he has a relationship with Han Yanghao in the crew. That's right. Rong Xu, you have to be careful, I don't know what kind of relationship you have with Zhong Yi, but... I don't think he's very good. "

Rong Xu looked at her in surprise, and Yi Lan smiled bitterly and said, "I know I shouldn't get close to you at this time, but I think you did nothing wrong. Anyway, I'm just a second- and third-tier starlet, so let him do whatever he wants. "

Rong Xu slowly lowered his eyes, hooked his lips and smiled lightly: "Sister Yi, thank you."

But at this moment, in Han Yanghao's private lounge, Zhong Yi was sitting on the sofa with an uncertain expression.

After thinking for a long time, he couldn't help asking again: "You said that Rong Xu was exiled by the Rong family? Are you sure about this, Brother Han? He is also the only blood of the Rong family. If he is exiled, Isn't the Rong family going to have no descendants?"

Han Yanghao took a sip of his drink and snorted coldly: "Mr. Li and Rong's have a cooperation, she told me personally. Although Second Master Rong has no children, why should he hand over the business he got to Rong Xu? Mr. Li He said that Rong Xu moved out of the Rong family a long time ago because Second Master Rong kicked him out. Otherwise, do you think that if Rong Xu had the Rong family as his backing, he would make weekly dramas like ours? He would definitely Make a leading role and find a famous director."

Zhong Yi's face turned white and red.

Han Yanghao sneered and said, "You, don't be fooled by his appearance when you don't know anything. Don't be fooled by his appearance. Do you think he's a money maker? He's just a paper tiger! By the way, how is his skill in bed? Or are you at the top? That kid looks pretty good, if you are at the top, then you are not at a disadvantage."

"Damn it! It's a good thing I didn't agree to associate with him just now. What is he, Rong Xu, who dares to pretend to be rich in front of me?" Zhong Yi punched the sofa hard, stood up and said : "Brother Han, then it's settled. I also think the second male lead in this film is good. Since Rong Xu has robbed me of my role in "Chasing the Deer", I will rob him this time. Who does he think he is? He's an idiot!"

Han Yanghao laughed: "Alright, Mr. Li just called me, let's go out now, let's see what Rong Xu has to say. If he dares to play tricks on me in the crew, he must have the capital !"

With a "click", the door of the lounge, which had been closed all day, was finally opened from the inside.The staff and actors in the crew all looked up, but Rong Xu was still looking down at his mobile phone, wondering what he was thinking.

At the gate of Xiangshan Film and Television City, a taxi slowly stopped.Before the car left, the driver said excitedly: "My daughter really likes you, and my wife likes you too! I really like your "Twilight", "Iron Teeth" and "Broken City" , Qin Cheng, you have to work hard, you must work hard!"

Qin Cheng: "...Thank you."

The uncle in his 50s clenched his fingers in front of you to show off his cuteness. Come on, well, I must be a little helpless personally.

Qin Cheng had been to Xiangshan Film and Television City several times before, and he was already familiar with the way. With his hands in his pockets, he walked in the cool breeze of early autumn, elegant and quiet.As if completely ignoring the manager behind him, Qin Cheng lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, walking like a stroll in the garden, but the cold and powerful aura pressed down straight down, causing the surrounding temperature to drop by three degrees.

The two walked like this for 10 minutes, and Xu Jin finally couldn't help it anymore: "...I was wrong, Young Master Qin, I didn't know that car would break down! And it's not my fault that the phone is dead...Okay Well, it's my fault, I didn't notice that the phone was dead. But we didn't arrive too late, it was only five o'clock in the afternoon, and although it was true that we had to wait almost two hours for a taxi in the middle of nowhere, it was not Is it still here..."

Qin Cheng raised his eyes suddenly, and flicked the knife coldly.

Xu Jin: "..."

After a while, he raised his right hand and said solemnly: "Tell me, Young Master Qin, who are you looking for, are you looking for Mr. Liu? I heard that "The King of Qin" is filming in Xiangshan, I will take you there Find him. Today I will do my best without complaint, do you think it is okay?"

Hearing this, Qin Cheng finally stopped: "Go and find out, where is the crew of "Ambush"?"

"Oh, I've already asked where "Qin Wang Tianxia" is, and it's at..." The voice stopped suddenly, and Xu Jin suddenly raised his head: ""Ambush"? What "Ambush"?"

Qin Cheng glanced at him with lowered eyes: "It's "Ambush", you are responsible for finding it."

Xu Jin: "..."

Every day in the film and television city, there are not twenty but fifteen crews filming at the same time!

The film and television city is so big, where do you ask him to find an unknown small crew!

The author has something to say: Zhong Yi [sharpens the knife rattling]: The gold master?I bother!

Rong Rong [spread hands]: Did I ever say that I am the patron?

Qin Chengcheng: Come to be the baby's benefactor, come to be the baby's benefactor, please take care of me, the baby will give you a warm bed? (????ω????)?.
