Play bone

On the afternoon of returning to Beijing, Shen Xing called Lu Li to the study.The two brewed a pot of tea to clear away the heat, and took out the script of the new drama "Looking for Fragrance" to review together.

According to Shen Xingze, director Yu Zuo originally wanted him to play the leading role.However, after reading the script, he felt that the protagonist's age group, identity and behavior were too different from his own.

Although the appearance and sense of age can be compensated by acting skills, it also means that Shen Xingxuan needs to break the established image-for other actors, this may be just a challenge; but Shen Xingxuan is not just an actor.Currently, he is responsible for the endorsement or advertisement of five international brands and 23 well-known domestic brands.During the endorsement period, Shen Xingze's dress, speech and behavior, even the mobile phone he uses in public places, what he eats, and the perfume he wears... all must fit the public image required by the business.

Not to mention, he himself is the second son of the Shen family.Compared with the big brother who is in business, he is more like the real spokesperson of Shen's image.And the more perfect a person is, the more he will be bound by his perfection.

But Lu Li is different - his appearance is excellent; his age is also close to the character in the script; his identity as a fledgling means that he is not afraid of any opportunities and challenges.

In fact, it was precisely because he was convinced that the script would have a chemical reaction with Lu Li that Shen Xingze, on the premise of refusing to act, turned against the client, squeezed out the original investors, let Shen take control of the overall situation, and even appeared in person for the first time Became a producer.

But even though the uncooked rice was almost cooked, Shen Xingze still didn't dare to use an overly forceful tone when facing Lu Li.

"What do you think?" he asked cautiously.

While refilling his tea, Lu Li raised his eyelids to look at Shen Xingze.

"You've already paid a lot of money, if I say no to acting, you still have to tear me up?"

"That's not so."

Shen Xingze is always serious when discussing things, and this is also a rare time for him to be cute.

"If you don't act, I at least have two options - arrange a more suitable actor in the company, or let Gordon directly replace it."

"Gordon?"

It's been a long time since I heard this name, and it was only then that Lu Li remembered that there was such a troublesome person.

"Did this kid get admitted to the Chinese Opera?"

"China Film's control is too strict for him, so he finally chose Peking Opera, which can be regarded as avoiding suspicion."

Going smoothly, Shen Xingze finally said the part that he thought was the most difficult to say.

"Actually... this time the script also arranged for Gordon to play a supporting role. This kid has a stubborn personality and is free and loose, but his nature is not bad. I hope you can help me watch him, so as not to poke trouble in the crew. Of course, I will also send someone to watch him."

The farce half a year ago is still vivid in my mind.Thinking of this kid named Gordon, Lu Li's temples would still throb.But then again, I'm afraid there are still many days to deal with little ghosts in the future, and it is better to face the difficulties and attack them in one fell swoop than to avoid them.

"I'm fine, but what if Gordon starts school?"

"His role is only for two months, and he is expected to join the group at the end of August and end at the end of October. Freshmen will have military training after reporting in mid-September, and after the military training is the National Day. Calculated in this way, the delay will be half a month at most. studies."

It seems that everything has been carefully calculated by Shen Xingxuan, and there is no need to be picky or picky.Although he understood that this was also a manifestation of his desire to control, it was still within the tolerable range, and Lu Li had no intention of haggling with him.

On the morning of the third day, the conference room of Juxing Company.Shen Xing chose to lead Lu Li and Gordon, as well as An Huawen and others, to meet director Yu Zuo, producer and screenwriter.

Previously, Li Haowen's team was led by the director; this group of people opposed each other with the producer Qiu Linfu who had mastered the capital.To some extent, it is this discordant situation that has led to the unsmooth operation of the team.

Today's team is another model - director Yu Zuo, producer Chen Dong and screenwriter Zhou Guangshan are jokingly called the "troika".All three of them are all-round talents. After leaving a well-known big company in the industry in the early years, they jointly opened a film and television company.Every project they handle is the result of the cooperation of the three.

As for the way of cooperation, it is also very interesting-because each of them is good at directing different types of dramas, when one of them is the director, the other two will act as the producer, screenwriter or producer respectively, and they will take turns until the next filming.

Facts have proved that this long-term intimate cooperation model is of high quality and high efficiency.Today, the three of them have become synonymous with fame and fortune, and also made a good story in the film and television industry.

But this time, the troika with excellent performance met Shen Shi, the big money lord across fields.The sparks from the collision are naturally very exciting.

Excellent script, gold-medal team, generous investment-this is the opportunity that many newcomers can't wait for.Lu Li understood that even Shen Xingxuan had to convince many people in the decision-making hierarchy if he wanted to use his family's power to praise someone.And the reason why he was sitting in this conference room meant that Shen Xingze had already won the initial battle, so the next one would be his home court.

Now that he has decided to fight, he will never lose, let alone shame Shen Xingxuan.

It's mid-July right now, and although the TV series didn't start until the end of August, all preparations have already been in full swing.On the afternoon of the meeting, Lu Li and Gordon met with the crew stylist, took measurements of the body and headgear, and prepared for the overall look.

At the same time, reminder documents about the shooting schedule and various precautions were also sent to Lu Li's phone.Among them was an unexpected and reasonable arrangement-there were four filming locations in the film, and the longest one happened to be Hailing Film and Television City.

I didn't expect to go home so soon, and there are some things that I really want to hide but can't hide.

That evening, Lu Li received a call from his hometown.The mother who returned from her honeymoon found the key to the new home, along with a thick stack of sales contracts, agreements, and user manuals.The old couple were taken aback, and hurried to ask what was going on.

Lu Li accepted the excuse provided by Shen Xingze—pretending that the apartment was a deposit for the upcoming play.It's just that I wronged the investor (Shen Xingxuan himself anyway), and took the strange scapegoat of "not getting cash" before the filming started.

After a lot of hard work, my mother finally accepted Lu Li's explanation and promised to move to a new house.This somewhat relieved Lu Li a little.

Put things at home on hold for the time being. On July 7th, the crew of "Looking for Fragrance" officially signed a contract with Lu Li.This also means that from this moment on, he will abandon all preconceptions about commercial films and serve the crew wholeheartedly.

Unlike the immersive creation of "keep your ears off the window" when filming "Longevity", TV dramas generally have a longer filming and screening cycle than movies, and commercial promotion runs through it all, many of which require the personal participation of actors.

Yu Zuo's company has an efficient and professional publicity team, and the [-]-person publicity team of Star Choice Studio has become an unprecedentedly powerful ally.The cooperation between the two parties has worked out a set of careful and detailed publicity plan.

In fact, long before Lu Li formally signed the contract, the team had already released rumors through various marketing accounts, revealing the casting situation of the TV series.

The heroine and lead actress were the first to be determined - Zhu Qianmiao from Tianyi Media, and Li Zhuhu from Haixin Studio.Both of them are hot leading actresses, and Li Zhuhu was the winner of Best Supporting Actress in China TV Jin Lin last year.A few days ago, Zhang Runtian, a popular niche, also confirmed in an interview that he will be the second male lead in "Looking for Fragrance".

The joining of the three first-line big names has heated up the topic time and time again, and also made the male protagonist, which has not been announced for a long time, the focus of attention.

The entertainment industry has always been green leaves with red flowers, and now the crew has three red flowers in one go, if the male lead is not qualified, it will cause criticism, and even attract resistance from the fans of the other three—experienced publicity team Of course this blind spot will not be ignored.They began to guide the public opinion on the Internet early, allowing various industry insiders, including the author of the original work, to express their opinions, and subtly outlined the image of the hero.

At the beginning, he was young, handsome, lively and intelligent; in the end, he was calm and thoughtful after vicissitudes of life.Not only the age span is large, but also good and evil, with multiple faces.In short, it is a complex and difficult role to play - after several hints, those vases who lack acting skills are first excluded, followed by actors who are too tough and vicissitudes of appearance.More and more people are beginning to turn their attention to the new generation of talents with professional background.

The time has come.The day after Lu Li officially signed the contract, the crew of "Looking for Fragrance" released the news that the male lead was settled.

According to industry practice, the official publicity of general film and television dramas rarely uses third-party materials.What's interesting is that since Lu Li has never taken any serious photos, half of the photos attached to this Weibo are the solo stills of "Longevity", and the other half are the magazine photos of the French version of Manifest back then.

The primitiveness and desolation on the grasslands of Inner Mongolia, the magnificence and elegance of the French chateau - two diametrically opposed styles collide together, as if silently telling the audience that they have indeed found the best candidate to control the hero.

The laurels of Berlin's best actor and the imperceptible foreshadowing played the role of double insurance.Judging from the analysis of public opinion on social media, the vast majority of netizens agree with this result.Subsequently, a list of supporting actors including Gordon was announced one after another, among them there are also actors who are on the rise in their careers and have started to become popular.

The waves of publicity here are in full swing and never stop, and the preparatory work of the crew over there is gradually coming to an end.

On August [-]th, there are still two weeks before the start-up.Lu Li led Gordon to Hailing - "Looking for Fragrance" is a fairy tale drama in ancient costume. In the next two weeks, they will receive basic martial arts instruction and Wia training.

The night before parting, Lu Li brought his luggage to Shen Xingze's house to spend the night.Facing the long separation of nearly four months to come, both of them were reluctant to part.Some words that have already been confessed have been brought out and repeatedly told.

"...I don't have any scenes to shoot recently, so I will let Anna accompany you into the group. If Gordon is disobedient, tell Anna or tell me directly, and I will take care of him."

"Got it! The third time, the third time! Do you have Alzheimer's disease?"

Lu Li pretended to be angry, and pressed Xiao Hei onto Shen Xingze's face.Just about to take advantage of the chaos and escape, Shen Xingxuan grabbed the waistband of his trousers and almost tore off the pajama pants and underwear.

Looking at his lover obediently nestled back into his arms, Shen Xingze simply put his hand into his trouser waist, and squeezed twice on the smooth, elastic, and excellent-feeling buttocks.

"Then tell me, what else have I told you?"

The author has something to say: the name Kushou, director Yu Zuo is really not a reflection of Yu Ma, but the author of a book called "Playing in the Tang Dynasty" at my hand.Every time I want to name a child, I look at the book at hand.The name Lin Gan is the author of "Illustrations of Yamen in the Qing Dynasty", and Li Haowen is the author of "Chang'an Zhi·Chang'an Zhitu"...

Yes, it is that simple and rude.

And "Looking for Fragrance" also took Yuxiangxing and changed it casually... It's too big to use the face directly haha
