More Than A Few Blessings

Zhang Fang, a young actor next to him, listened to Lu Chengyu chatting with the famous artist for a while, then turned his head to talk to the assistants behind him.Although he took into account Lu Chengyu's identity, he didn't think much of Lu Chengyu who didn't have much acting skills, and he was still relying on the backstage to squeeze into the crew.

He became famous when he was young. Although he is under thirty now, he is already a well-known celebrity. This time, he is already a certainty to appear in "The Universe". However, Lu Chengyu, who was originally his favorite role as a major, was assigned to Lu Chengyu, and he only got one role. Not as good as the opponent's clerk.

When entering the restaurant, the seats are also very particular. The main table must be the director, producer and several international superstars in China. Seniority, but several masters of ceremonies calmly led these people to the tables where they should sit, and everyone present was also sensible and would not sit where they should not sit.

Lu Chengyu originally planned to find a seat at the third table, but he was assigned to the second table. Seeing the superstars who walked out of the full table and would cause crowds of fans, he wisely chose a seat next to him.

Who knew that as soon as he sat down, there was a person sitting on the left side, he turned his head and glanced, his eyebrows trembled slightly, this person turned out to be the famous Zhou Qingrong in the circle, King Zhou Datian.As a junior, he politely nodded to Zhou Qingrong.Although he has no hobby of chasing stars, he has watched several TV series played by Zhou Qingrong.

"Xiao Lu plays my subordinate in the play, right?" Zhou Qingrong smiled at Lu Chengyu with a gentle face, looking very approachable. He is over forty years old, and from his appearance, he is only about thirty, "There is this one Handsome subordinate, I am under pressure as the chief."

"Brother Zhou, don't make fun of other people's children," a certain actress over 30 years old heard this and said with a smile, "The ones who like you are all women over [-] years old, and the ones who like us Xiaolu are all young. Girls, you two appear in one shot, that is the woman who won the country in one fell swoop. So, don't stress."

As soon as the actress spoke, she immediately won the approval of the others.All of you here are people from this circle, and they are more or less familiar with him, so soon someone started making jokes about Zhou Qingrong, but they were all good-natured jokes, and there was a faint sense of flattering Lu Chengyu.

Everyone knew in their hearts that no matter how good they were, if they posted a word, they might never have a movie, and they would disappear naturally, even their fans would not notice anything wrong.

Lu Chengyu also knew the embarrassment in the circle, so he always got along with these people with the attitude of a junior, and occasionally made a small joke with these people, but he never showed any intention of being too close to these people from the beginning to the end.

The main reason for him to participate in "Qian Kun" is to check some things he didn't know in his previous life, and to get familiar with the behavior styles of some actors, so as to determine which actors can be used and which actors cannot be used when he invests in movies in the future.

The other artists here also know that Lu Chengyu's identity is different from theirs. They favored Lu Chengyu firstly because of the influence of the Mu family, and secondly because Lu Chengyu himself is a wealthy and well-connected master, so it is inevitable that there will be no chance to cooperate in the future.

Zhang Fang was a bit displeased with Lu Chengyu at first, but seeing that Zhou Qingrong, who was stronger than himself, was always polite to Lu Chengyu, most of the unhappiness in his heart went away, and he became more jealous of Lu Chengyu.

There wasn't anything good to eat at the opening banquet, but Lu Chengyu got acquainted with these big names in the circle.The first scene in the afternoon is a reception that requires many actors to appear. In the play, Lu Chengyu is a major from a wealthy family, so in this scene, he needs to appear in a suit and leather boots that were popular in the last century.

There are several sets of cameras filming such a reception at the same time. In the middle is a group of well-dressed people from the aristocratic circle, surrounded by crew members in coats or vests.

With so many big names together, it's like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers. Among them, it is easy to tell who is not good at acting and who is not suitable enough.

Director Qin originally thought that Lu Chengyu would be very uncomfortable with this shooting method, but to his surprise, Lu Chengyu didn't make any mistakes from the beginning to the end. He played a wealthy major with a noble background and excellent grades, although it is not a rare one. See, but there's nothing wrong with it.

After filming the important reception scene, the stone in Director Qin's heart fell to the ground.No matter how many actors in the crew came in through the back door, now that he can shoot the results he wants, nothing else matters.

The meaning of the drama "Qian Kun" is extraordinary, so everything from the costumes to the props of the actors is very elegant, and the requirements for the actors' acting skills are also very important.The big names who usually call the wind and rain outside have been scolded countless times in this drama, and Lu Chengyu has also been scolded by Director Qin.Although Director Qin is usually very amiable, but when it comes to filming, he is simply the king of hell, and he has scolded countless times.

As long as capable directors, no matter how smooth or upright they are in their daily life, they have their own attitudes when shooting, such as Director Qin, such as Zhang Shuo.

Lu Chengyu didn't think that the other party was embarrassing himself on purpose. He learned a lot from the filming during this period, so that an assistant director told him that when he only had the last scene of death in battle, there was still a little bit left. reluctant.

The requirements for blasting in "Qian Kun" are very high, with the goal of shooting the most realistic effects, and professional instructors teach actors how to pass the blasting point safely.

The major's military uniform was covered with dust, blood donations and charred black masses. He was surrounded by comrades who died in battle. His eyes swept across the young faces. The armored vehicle driven by their corpses, holding the national flag that was stained red by blood donation, he slowly raised his head with blood on his face, looked at the blue sky and the bright sun above his head, and tightened his hand holding the flagpole, His body, which was originally weak due to excessive blood loss, also stood up straight.

"The people of the country will not perish!"

"The country will never perish!"

His pupils gradually became dilated, as if he heard the voice of the children singing the national anthem, the hand holding the flagpole suddenly loosened, and the person fell down heavily, only the blood-stained flag was still fluttering in the breeze.

Because this scene is a very important scene, so the surrounding staff were surrounded. When Lu Chengyu fell straight down, the mood of all the staff seemed to be heavy with this.Although there was no post-production and no music rendering in the live performance, Lu Chengyu accurately grasped the characteristics of the characters.

The major was born in a wealthy family and did not understand the suffering of ordinary people. He was proud but qualified to be proud. However, when the national crisis came, he did not seek refuge abroad like others, but fulfilled his duties as a soldier and sacrificed his life for the country.

"Come on!" Director Qin was silent for a moment, then raised his hand to signal that the scene was over, and then two assistants rushed forward to help Lu Chengyu up, and He Long also took a coat and put it on Lu Chengyu.

In this kind of weather, wearing a thin military uniform is simply suffering. He Long and the other two assistants arranged by Yan Mu put clothes on Lu Chengyu and gave him warm water at the same time.

"Thank you," Lu Chengyu held the warm glass of water and took a big sip before his voice stopped trembling. "Have you booked your flight back tonight?"

"It's already booked," He Long knew that Lu Chengyu was worried about the company's affairs, so he said, "Mr. Yan has already said that he will pick you up at the airport tonight."

Lu Chengyu nodded, because he had been away from the capital for nearly a month for the filming of "Heaven and Kun". This is only on the premise that Director Qin intended to shoot scenes related to his role in advance. If not, he does not know when he will be able to return.

Because of the confidentiality agreement, he hardly played Weibo in the past month, and usually called Yan Mu when he was bored, so when He Long mentioned Yan Mu, he realized that the main reason he was eager to return to the capital was because he missed Yan Mu. Instead of worrying about the two movies I invested in, or anything else.

"Xiao Lu's finale scene was well filmed," Director Qin walked up to Lu Chengyu with a smile and patted Lu Chengyu on the shoulder, and personally handed the red envelope to Lu Chengyu, "I heard that you are going back tonight. I can't go away, I can't take you off in person, let my assistant drive you to the airport later."

Lu Chengyu took the red envelope. This is a rule in the crew. If a dead person or a dead scene is played, the crew will give a red envelope to avoid bad luck.After listening to Director Qin's words, he thanked him while declining, seeing that Director Qin was very persistent, he agreed, "Then please trouble Director Qin and your assistant, and when you return to the capital, let's have a drink together if we have a chance. "

"That's fine," Director Qin smiled even more happily, reached out and patted Lu Chengyu's shoulder, and sighed again, "It's a pity that such a good seedling doesn't get mixed up in this circle." These days, although he He also scolded Lu Chengyu, but he had a very good evaluation of Lu Chengyu in his heart.

Knowing how to be a human being and acting, it is a pity that I can grasp the feeling better than many professional actors.

After talking with Director Qin, Lu Chengyu went to the dressing room to remove his makeup, washed off the stains on his face, and changed into the military uniform on his body. Lu Chengyu looked at himself in the mirror, and said to the makeup artist after a long while: "Suddenly not wearing a military uniform is still a bit awkward." No more, fortunately I have made up my mind not to enter this circle, otherwise I will be in trouble if I can’t get out of the characters in the play.”

The makeup artist smiled and said, "If Mr. Lu enters the entertainment industry, he will definitely be a superstar."

"Forget it, I'm not suitable for this bowl of rice," Lu Chengyu stood up, and brushed his cut hair, "I have no regrets about being able to act in this movie."

Liu Qiyan who came in from the outside heard the conversation between the two, sat down in front of another makeup mirror, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu will shine in other circles as well, it's a pity to stay in the showbiz circle."

Lu Chengyu smiled and glanced at Liu Qiyan: "Sister Yan thinks too highly of me." Although he suspected that Liu Qiyan helped him secretly in the car accident last time, Liu Qiyan never got close to him after the filming of "Qian Kun" started. , as if he were just a stranger.He didn't expect that Liu Qiyan would take the initiative to talk to him again on the day he left.

Liu Qiyan smiled, picked up the eyebrow pencil to fill in her eyebrows, and then said: "I heard that Mr. Lu is going back tonight." She put down the eyebrow pencil, looked at Lu Chengyu with a smile, "I wish you a good journey."

Lu Chengyu raised his eyebrows, and then smiled and said, "Thank you." He frowned slightly after he left the dressing room. How could a smart woman like Liu Qiyan wish others a good journey before they boarded the plane?For people who often fly by plane, there are a small number of people who are afraid of others saying things like a smooth journey, and it is impossible for Liu Qiyan not to know this.

After saying goodbye to other familiar people, I got in the car driven by the director's assistant and rushed to the airport.He Long booked him a plane at 07:30 in the evening, and it was already [-]:[-] in the afternoon. He was worried that he would not be able to get to the airport in time due to traffic jams on the road.

"Lu Chengyu is gone?" Zhang Fang listened to the discussions of the surrounding staff, and said to his manager, "It's different to have a backstage, even the director takes care of him."

The agent looked around and made sure no one heard Zhang Fang's words: "Say a few words less, even Zhou Tianwang is polite to him, and he doesn't plan to join the entertainment industry, so it won't be your competition." opponent."

Zhang Fang fell silent, sometimes people are so strange, knowing that the other party will not threaten him, but he feels that the other party's existence affects him.He knew in his heart that this was the so-called jealousy, but even he himself couldn't explain why he would be jealous of someone who had nothing to do with him.

He looked up to see the helplessness on the manager's face, opened his mouth, and finally said, "I see."
