I, the emperor, aspired to the top of the entertainment industry

Xu Dao glanced over coldly, Xie Mingzhou was dressed in a black robe, with noble red dragon patterns carved on the cuffs, and his slender waistline was tied under a red belt, like a crescent moon.

With one hand behind his back, Xie Mingzhou was as straight as a pine, with a steady pace, and his high ponytail looked energetic and heroic—as if he was born for ancient costumes.

Director Xu was surprised by Xie Mingzhou's ancient costume, but when he focused on that face, he was slightly stunned—the well-defined face was turned gray and rough, as if it had just been covered by yellow sand, but the eyes were still Glittering and charming.

Director Xu let go of his worries. This kid is willing to make himself so ugly, without the burden of idols, and he has defeated most of the current squeamish traffic niches.

Xie Mingzhou was very satisfied, and Li Mu followed behind him, feeling Xie Mingzhou's dedicated attitude, and said respectfully: "Mr. Xie, come on, I look forward to your young Emperor Ming!"

Xie Mingzhou smiled.Before the play started, he went to the wall to read the script, waiting for Director Xu to call his name.

Suddenly there was a commotion at the door, Xie Mingzhou took advantage of the situation to look.The young man at the door was wearing a black jacket, with a bright and flamboyant face under short light yellow hair.

That kind of arrogant appearance that can be spotted at a glance in the crowd.

Chen Xu, the actor who played the role of Young Emperor Ming, walked into the shed, and the staff at the side reminded tremblingly: "Young Master Chen, you are half an hour late, and the makeup artists are all ready..."

Chen Shao didn't even give him a straight look, and walked towards the dressing room without paying attention.

Everyone in the audience knew that Shen Yuqiao and Chen Xu, the two most famous people here, were not easy to mess with.

Chen Xu has always been at the top of the idol world. He debuted in the draft, and his popularity has never dropped out of the top four. In addition, Chen's father is one of the managers of the crew, so the crew chose to cooperate with him.

I don't have much acting experience, but it's passable.

Chen Xu glanced across the rest area, and caught a glimpse of a rough, sallow face in the corner amidst many group performances.

Chen Xu frowned, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity.He raised his chin and asked the assistant, "The one in the corner is new? I haven't seen him before."

The assistant looked at the information in his hand: "Yes, I heard that an actor of the young Emperor Ming was recruited. Coincidentally, it is Xie Mingzhou who debuted with you five years ago."

Chen Xu slowed down.

Xie Mingzhou?

He didn't know anything in the draft that year, and he was twice as stupid as the number of votes!

He has been unable to swallow this breath, but in the past five years of double-line training of idol actors, he has grown into a top traffic, and Xie Mingzhou retired and came back, and now he is reduced to playing a soy sauce role that no one plays.

To put it bluntly, Emperor Ming's youth was added to the plot to make his role as the young Emperor Ming more brilliant and the character set more complete.

Chen Xu smiled smugly, glanced at the embarrassed face, and felt more joyful. He turned back and walked in the direction of Xie Mingzhou.

Five years later, Xie Mingzhou is still as rustic and timid as before.

Chen Xu seemed to be looking at a beggar, the corners of his lips curled up mockingly: "Isn't this Mingzhou?"

However, when he approached, he felt something was wrong. Xie Mingzhou, who was bullied by him in the draft before, hid when he saw him.

It was as if he wasn't paying attention to him at all.

Chen Xu frowned, how dare this guy ignore him like this?You know, now he is the object of Xie Mingzhou's admiration.

He stood in front of Xie Mingzhou, and asked provocatively: "Why, pretend you don't know me? What's so good about this kind of script that picks up leaks."

Xie Mingzhou took his eyes off the script unhurriedly, glanced at the face of the person in front of him indifferently, finally retrieved the identity of this person from his mind, and smiled lightly: "You were the one who lost to me in the draft a few years ago... …that whoever?"

"you?!"

Chen Xu was so angry that he not only exposed his scars, but also couldn't remember his name!

The assistant on the side reminded in a low voice: "Young Master Chen, the makeup artist is waiting for you..."

Chen Xu clicked his tongue impatiently, holding his breath in his heart, staring at Xie Mingzhou with a sneer and said, "Looking forward to your performance, young emperor, don't forget your words when the time comes."

Deliberately bite the word "again".

He has seen Xie Mingzhou's poor script skills before.

After finishing speaking, Chen Xu walked towards the dressing room without turning his head.

Looking at Chen Xu's back, Xie Mingzhou suppressed his smile.

He finally remembered that this former draft classmate used to rely on his lack of background, so he often recruited gangsters to bully him during the draft process.

It is really a disaster for a person with such a state of mind to play the emperor in history.

"Thank you...Mingzhou is here!" Director Xu called Xie Mingzhou's name from the side.

This kid is not a good person, but his name is domineering, and he always has the illusion of calling Ming Emperor by his name.

Xie Mingzhou responded, walked calmly to the edge of the city wall, and asked the costumer to put on the blood-stained armor for him.

Weeds are overgrown around the city wall, and the neighing of jackdaws can be heard occasionally - it is indeed a good place for war scenes.

And under the city wall, there were group performers standing inside and outside, with guns stained with blood. Although there were only a hundred people, it was enough to be used as a later stitching scene.

This plot revolves around Emperor Ming joining the army when he was young, and for the first time as the leader of the battle to suppress the rebellion.

Born in the general family of Emperor Ming, the ancestors of Ming fought in all directions when they were young, and recovered the border north of Liangzhou in exchange for the stability of the Ming Dynasty.

Since Xie Mingzhou was born, he has been raised in a deep palace, read poetry and books, and is full of talent.But after the court was stabilized, there were constant rebellions in northern Xinjiang, and the relationship between the generals and ministers around the late emperor was complicated, so he could only send his confidant son to recover the frontier, and at the same time, it could be regarded as training Xie Mingzhou's general talent.

After all, it is difficult to conquer the country, and it is even more difficult for the next person to guard the country.

Xie Mingzhou joined the army at the border at the age of 17, and the Battle of Liangzhou City was a battle in which he made key achievements.This plot is to restore the scene where the rebels surrendered and the army cheered.

Director Xu stood in the center of the field, with the script rolled into a circle, and directed the group performance loudly: "After a while, the messenger shouted a report, and the rebels fell to the ground. All the Ming soldiers followed Xie Mingzhou's gesture and raised their weapons. Well, the horn of victory!"

All the extras echoed loudly: "Yes!"

Director Xu turned his head and looked at Xie Mingzhou: "You will..."

But seeing Xie Mingzhou staring thoughtfully at the banners on the city wall upstairs, he looked back lightly.

"Your profile says you can ride a horse." Director Xu asked.

Xie Mingzhou nodded.

"That's right." Director Xu gave Xie Mingzhou a meaningful look, "But for the sake of stability, you just need to sit on the horse and turn around on the spot, and lead the soldiers to shout, and shout with momentum!"

It's one thing to be able to ride, but the crew can't afford to fall.

"Yes." Xie Mingzhou thought for a while and asked, "But I remember that there is also a scene in the script where the horse gallops out of the city gate to announce the good news to the frontline soldiers."

Director Xu looked at him: "You don't have to worry about it, just leave it to a professional equestrian stand-in to shoot the distant scenes."

Xie Mingzhou agreed, and followed the staff to a brown horse. Because it was a prop horse, it was gentle and honest.The action director also handed over props and spears to Xie Mingzhou.

Director Xu went back to the camera after seeing that everything had been arranged properly.As if thinking of something, Director Xu looked around and asked his assistant, "Where is Chen Xuren? The next scene will be his."

The assistant said cautiously: "He was late, and he was dissatisfied with the makeup in the dressing room just now, and was angry in the background."

Director Xu frowned and tutted, and said seriously, "Let's start first."

Xie Mingzhou just got on the horse and sat with the horse's belly for a short time, when he heard the sound of starting up in the distance.

"Action!"

Liangzhou City, which is located on the border, was raging with war. The Ming army was divided into two groups. The city defenders fought the main force inside the city, and the assault battalion rushed outside the city to repel the ambush.

After three days and three nights of fighting, the soldiers in the city were already blinded, the horses neighed, and the rebels retreated steadily.

The scale of the group performance is small, but it is powerful. In addition, the remnant soldiers of the prop group are all over the battlefield, showing the fierceness of the battlefield to the fullest.

In the blood that was pouring, there was a wild roar.

"Report--!!!"

The horseshoes rolled up the yellow sand, and a messenger galloped on the horse, rushing straight in from outside the city.

In the next second, the camera immediately cuts to the center of the battlefield. A figure with a straight and loose back stands in the shadow of swords and blood, holding the rein with one hand, and the ponytail raised high is heroic.

Xie Mingzhou reined in his horse and turned around. After fighting for three days and three nights, his deep eyebrows and eyes were covered with yellow sand and blood, but his eyes were extremely determined.

Billowing smoke and dust, Xie Mingzhou lost his mind for a moment, as if he had returned to that ancient battlefield, and the vivid generals came back to life again, fighting bloody battles to defend the border and the country.

The fuzzy memory overlapped with the scene, and it was hard to distinguish between reality and hallucination for a while, Xie Mingzhou subconsciously clenched the rein with his fingers, his eyes trembled for a moment, and firmly locked on the original figure facing him.

"Report!!! The Northern Army has surrendered!! The Northern Army has surrendered!!!" The courier roared wildly, with tears in his eyes, and reined in his horse five meters in front of Xie Mingzhou. Under the desolate city.

In an instant, the young general stood on the horse, his lips were pale, and he looked at the blood-stained world, his originally determined eyes showed a bit of bewilderment.

Purgatory...is it finally over...

There were constant wars in the northern border, and this was the first time he accepted a heavy responsibility to lead the Ming army to defend the city.Thousands of soldiers obeyed his orders and buried their bones here. After three days and three nights of fighting, they finally won the dawn.

Xie Mingzhou closed his red eyes, tightly gripped the long spear in his hand, the veins on the back of his hand were bulging, he lifted it up little by little trembling, and then raised it high on the top, he said hoarsely and decisively: "Long live the Ming Dynasty!!!"

Director Xu frowned and stared at Xie Mingzhou in the camera, thoughtful but did not stop.

He told Xie Mingzhou that his movements should be clean and neat, to convey the spirit of a soldier.

But Xie Mingzhou obviously has another interpretation of the action of raising the gun here.

For the first time, the young Emperor Ming served as the leading general, leading the guards to defend the city gate and finally defend the border.

On the young man's shoulders, he not only carries his family and country, but also the heavy blood of thousands of soldiers.Raising the weapon above the head is a cry of victory, and it is also a farewell to the dead bones buried under the loess.

The interpretation that fits the character's state of mind and life experience incomparably makes the character of the young Emperor Ming more vivid.

A flash of surprise flashed in Director Xu's eyes. As an actor, Xie Mingzhou's ability to empathize with characters exceeded his expectations.It should be... a lot of hard work.

In the camera, the young general gave an order, and ten thousand generals surrendered. The bloody battle of three days and three nights seemed to have found an outlet. The soldiers raised their spears and roared with majesty.

"Long live Daming!! Long live Daming!"

The guards on the city wall also received the signal and waved a two-meter-high battle flag.

While the audience was cheering, the city wall was in the limelight, and the flag bearer lost his grip suddenly, and the battle flag engraved with the word "Ming" fell from the roof of the building.

Xie Mingzhou's eyes froze.

"Bang!"

The whole audience watched with wide eyes that the banner symbolizing imperial power smashed down the city wall and fell down, like an ominous omen.

In ancient times, this was disrespectful to the royal family!

Everyone was stunned and surprised, and the standard bearers on the city wall were terrified.

Director Xu frowned, raised the walkie-talkie, and the word "card" just came to his lips.

A fast horse galloped out suddenly, and at the moment when the flagpole was about to hit the ground, Xie Mingzhou grabbed the flagpole with his long hand, held the flagpole firmly in his hand, opened the flag, and raised it above his head——

Just like back then, he and countless soldiers made the banner of Ming Dynasty firmly stand on the borders of the four seas.

The wind howled, the flags rang, and the blood-stained armor of the young man on the horse was tall and straight, with his ponytail raised, full of vigor and vigor.

After the photographer was stunned for a moment, he hurriedly zoomed out, and the camera shot continuously into a line.

——This section was originally supposed to be completed by an equestrian stand-in, but now it seems that I have achieved a good result!

Among the flying sand and gravel, everyone seemed to have really seen that young man in fresh clothes and angry horse in the capital.

As soon as Shen Yuqiao arrived on the set, he saw Xie Mingzhou riding a horse and waving the flag, and was slightly taken aback.

"This equestrian stand-in is quite professional." Yang Yuan who was beside her glanced nonchalantly, then lowered her eyes to look at the itinerary in her hand, "There is an endorsement event in the afternoon..."

"It's not a stand-in." Shen Yuqiao looked at the slow-moving man and horse in the distance, and said in surprise, "It's Xie Mingzhou himself."

Yang Yuan paused, and suddenly raised her eyes: "Xie Mingzhou?"

Although the director informed a few days ago that Xie Mingzhou would come to audition for the role of the young emperor, everyone knew that this role was thankless.

But the bright young man is really Xie Mingzhou? !

This guy was born in poverty and couldn't even afford to eat, so he has the conditions to study equestrianism?

Shen Yuqiao remained silent.

"Card--!!"

Director Xu yelled on the walkie-talkie, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Hearing the words, Xie Mingzhou reined in his horse, put away all his sharpness, and walked back to the gate of the city, his eyes swept over Shen Yuqiao who had just finished changing his clothes on the sidelines.

The white clothes are fluttering, and the face is like a crown jade.

He looked very much like Shen Shuxing, the right minister who greeted him triumphantly back then.

Xie Mingzhou stood high on the horse, lifted his chin lightly, and smiled proudly at Shen Yuqiao, with a hint of nostalgia.

Shen Yuqiao paused for a moment, and smiled gently, then looked away thoughtfully.

Director Xu on the side rarely let go of his brows, but this time the management stuffed him with a reliable actor.

Director Xu put down the script, got up and walked towards the man beside the horse who unloaded his armor: "Xie Mingzhou, this game is not bad."

Let the assistant sign the contract for him in a while.

However, at this moment, the phone in Director Xu's pocket vibrated.

Director Xu took it out to have a look in doubt, and called——Guo Lei.

Fu Yan's secretary.
