After the vase cannon fodder is reborn

Wen Zhuoyu spent the eighth day of the first lunar month at home before returning to City A reluctantly.It's not the start of school, but to join the group to participate in the script reading.

Gu Xihuai personally drove to the airport to pick him up.Then he arranged Wen Zhuoyu in the same hotel as himself: "I live next door to you. If you want to play against each other or discuss the plot, you are welcome to come and find me anytime."

As Gu Xihuai said, he pointed to the opposite side of the two of them: "That's Director Chen's room. I've reserved this floor, and all the people from our crew live there."

Wen Zhuoyu smiled and said, "This is quite convenient."

Gu Xihuai said again: "The filming location has also been rented. I rented a nightclub on Bar Street that is about to close down, and a 24-hour convenience store nearby. I rented it for a total of three months. When the time comes, I will give the lease contract to Take a look."

After all, Wen Zhuoyu is another investor in the movie, and Gu Xihuai should let Wen Zhuoyu take care of it.

Wen Zhuoyu nodded, he believed that Gu Xihuai would not fool him with such trivial matters, but it would be good to go through the process and take a look.It is also responsible for one's own work.

That night, several main creators of the crew met in a private room of the hotel.Because the budget cost of the whole film is only 8000 million, Gu Xihuai did not invite too many first-line celebrities to act as the main actors when preparing the film.Apart from the director Chen Xusheng, Gu Xihuai only invited one Tsing Yi with good acting skills to play the role of Xiaomei. Her salary is 300 million.The rest are some little-known old drama bones.

The combined remuneration of all the actors did not exceed 2000 million.It is worth mentioning that, because Wen Zhuoyu had to play the vital role of a psychologist, even if he was a newcomer, Gu Xihuai still offered him a salary of 50 yuan.

When Wen Zhuoyu and Gu Xihuai appeared in the box together, all the creative staff looked at Wen Zhuoyu curiously.Compared with the acting skills of this pure newcomer, everyone is obviously more interested in the news that he made billions from nothing in just a few months.

Some people jokingly begged Wen Zhuoyu to recommend a few stocks to them: "I don't want to be rich, just earn some pocket money."

Wen Zhuoyu smiled handsomely, and said casually: "Then you can buy the shares of Gu's Group. The development prospect of Gu's Group is so good, and the stock price must be booming."

Everyone laughed out loud, thinking that Wen Zhuoyu was complimenting Gu Xihuai, and no one took it to heart.

Only director Chen Xusheng was still thinking about recommending Wen Zhuoyu to audition with his old friend's crew, but Wen Zhuoyu failed to join the group because of Ying Jia's tyrannical obstruction. It's about investing in Juyu.He said thoughtfully: "You play well when you are filming, we will definitely make them regret it."

Wen Zhuoyu smiled and said, "Thanks to Director Chen's attention, I will definitely work hard."

Seeing Chen Xusheng's expression of confidence so eager to try and impatient to punch his face, several leading actors finally became curious about Wen Zhuoyu's acting skills.

So at the first script reading meeting after the meal, Wen Zhuoyu keenly discovered that several of the main creators were doing their best when they were in the play. The performance is full of emotion-the undercurrent and tense atmosphere of the confrontation is almost the same as the official shooting.

Wen Zhuoyu's addiction to drama was mobilized instantly.

"You just said that you suspect that your boyfriend is a perverted murderer? And his next target is you?" Wen Zhuoyu leaned forward slightly, crossed his hands in front of the table, and used body language to express his feelings for certain things A sign of interest and inclination for in-depth conversations, she looked at the actress who played Xiaomei with gentle eyes, and said in a persuasive tone, "Why do you think so? Or let me put it another way, what kind of behavior did your boyfriend do that prompted you to have such a behavior?" idea?"

The actress looked at Wen Zhuoyu in surprise, but she didn't expect Wen Zhuoyu to memorize her lines before joining the group.In the blink of an eye, the actress adjusted her state, and said in an anxious but dazed tone: "I can't explain why. Twins have become very strange recently. I think he has something to hide from me... …No, I'm sure he's hiding something from me."

Xiaomei looked at the psychiatrist hesitant to speak, her slender fingers were tangled together, she wanted to confide her uneasiness to the psychiatrist in front of her, but she didn't seem to know where to start.

"He wants to kill me." Xiaomei avoided the psychiatrist's scrutiny with flickering eyes, repeatedly emphasizing this point: "He really wants to kill me and replace me."

"Replace you?" The psychiatrist's face clearly showed a hint of playfulness and inquiry.He looked at Xiaomei and asked softly, "Why do you think so?"

Xiaomei leaned over to the psychiatrist, and said nervously: "I found that he would secretly put on my skirt when I was asleep. He also put medicine in my meal, and he wanted to poison me to death." I."

The psychiatrist's eyes became even weirder.He looked at Xiaomei seriously, from head to toe, with a hint of excitement in his expression, but very secretive, and then he asked with concern: "Can I meet your boyfriend? "

The actors in the conference room are all paying attention to the performance of the two people.Anyone who has read the script knows what kind of role the psychiatrist plays in the movie. This role does not have many roles, but it plays a vital role.Every scene that appears is paving the way for the following plot.Therefore, it is required that the actor playing this role must have good acting skills. He must be calm in the early stage, but he must also show the clues of the gray line of the grass snake. Only when the truth of the ending is revealed can the audience suddenly realize it.

So when they first knew that Gu Xihuai had invited a newcomer with no acting experience to play this role, everyone didn't take it seriously.Only director Chen Xusheng has seen Wen Zhuoyu's acting skills, but he is worried about Wen Zhuoyu's state. There is no need to worry about the scenes that need to explode in the later stage, but the early stage scenes may not be enough.

If this character can't be perfect in the process of acting, then the quality of the whole movie will be inferior.Therefore, Chen Xusheng's initial opinion was to invite other more experienced senior actors to play this role. With Chen Xusheng and Gu Xihuai's connections in the circle, it was entirely possible to invite such a heavyweight actor.

But in the end, Gu Xihuai still insisted on handing over the role of psychiatrist to Wen Zhuoyu, and made a firm promise: "I believe he can play well."

Fortunately, Wen Zhuoyu's performance during the script reading did not disappoint Gu Xihuai.Everyone looked at Wen Zhuoyu in surprise. Just now Wen Zhuoyu's tone, expression and micro-movements were handled very naturally, completely like a professional, confident but malicious psychiatrist, carefully testing the prey's bottom line.

What is even more surprising is that Wen Zhuoyu's performance is at a subtle critical point, which is an unnatural feeling that can be seen by onlookers from the perspective of God. From the perspective of audiences who know the plot, it is a kind of excitement when a hunter sees his prey.

Combined with the role of the psychiatrist in the script - a well-dressed and gentle scum, no matter how critical everyone is, they can't criticize Wen Zhuoyu's performance.

This is very rare for a newcomer who has never been exposed to acting.As we all know, for most actors, it is relatively easy to perform that kind of explosive scene where emotions are released and opened up.

But Wen Zhuoyu held on.Not only did it hold up, but it also endowed the character with a different kind of charm—after all, with Wen Zhuoyu's good looks, it's hard to be too trustworthy for him to play this kind of gentle scum who wanders in sensual places and hunts for beauty. .As long as the audience sees Wen Zhuoyu's face, they can understand why countless women throw themselves into their arms like moths to a flame.

It will be even more shocking to see the reversal of the ending.

In general, Wen Zhuoyu's appearance at the script reading meeting today was very successful, at least his acting skills were recognized by all the main creative staff.What everyone is worried about now is probably whether Wen Zhuoyu's performance is stable?Can you still dedicate such a delicate and exquisite performance during the official shooting?

By the time the script reading was over, it was already past one o'clock in the morning, and everyone went back to the room to rest.

In the next few days, everyone still maintained the progress of script reading.It wasn't until half a month later that the movie officially started. The crew of "Twins" held a start-up ceremony at the shooting site.Because of Director Chen and Gu Xihuai, many reporters came on the day of the launch.Even the reporters from the financial section came to hear the news—these people came to interview Wen Zhuoyu.After all, this rich man has been hiding from the media and not accepting interviews since he became rich overnight, and he kept a low profile and did not go out after experiencing the kidnapping case.The media couldn't stop Wen Zhuoyu everywhere, so they could only come to the launch site to try their luck.Take a gamble that Wen Zhuoyu is in a good mood and might be willing to accept an interview.

The main actors looked at Wen Zhuoyu, who was surrounded by several financial reporters and kept asking questions, and once again realized deeply that this rookie actor who was full of fire during the script reading period was actually a billionaire. rich man.

In view of the fact that Gu Xihuai, another protagonist of the movie, is also the heir of the Gu Group, while besieging Wen Zhuoyu, several financial reporters also extended their microphones to Gu Xihuai.Someone talked quickly and even mentioned the news that Luo Xiu chose to suspend school after being admitted to return home, and the originally noisy shooting scene suddenly fell silent.

Wen Zhuoyu was also a little surprised.When chatting with Gu Xihuai before, he also heard that Mrs. Gu wanted Luo Xiu to transfer to the Department of Management or Finance, but he thought that the Gu family would transfer Luo Xiu at most.She never thought that Mrs. Gu would act so ruthlessly—to lock Luo Xiu at home in the name of repeating her studies.

On the other side, Gu Xihuai, who was being interviewed, said calmly: "...I originally wanted to transfer Luoxiu to another school. However, given Luoxiu's performance in cultural subjects, none of the key universities in this city can accept his student status. Luoxiu himself is also very ambitious. , want to repeat a year to be admitted to the Department of Finance of University A."

Hearing this familiar name, everyone subconsciously looked at Wen Zhuoyu.Everyone felt that the reason why Luoxiu wanted to repeat her studies for a year to apply for the Department of Finance of University A must be stimulated by Wen Zhuoyu.

Wen Zhuoyu secretly raised his eyebrows, feeling sad for Luo Xiu.It seems that Mrs. Gu has gained the trust of Luoxiu by painting big cakes, making Luoxiu willingly drop out of the film academy, to put it bluntly, to repeat at home, and the conspiracy theory is to completely cut off the society that Luoxiu may extend outward Contact means that the Gu family has firmly grasped Luo Xiu in their palms.Once Luo Xiu loses his use value, waiting for his end may be very passive.

Seeing Gu Xihuai's amicable attitude, and the reporter asked Gu Xihuai if he had any thoughts on Luoxiu's series of actions when he returned to Gu's family to retake the exam for the Department of Finance of A University?In front of many cameras, Gu Xihuai of course expressed that he was very happy to see this scene.In any case, Luo Xiu can be regarded as his savior...

Wen Zhuoyu was impatient to hear these words, interrupted Gu Xihuai's interview, and said in a deep voice: "This is the opening ceremony of the movie "Twins", please pay attention to the interview etiquette, and don't ask questions that have nothing to do with the movie."

Although Wen Zhuoyu was an actor invited by Gu Xihuai, he was also an investor in the film.It's okay for him to take the initiative to maintain the order of the interview.However, everyone present subconsciously felt that Wen Zhuoyu probably hated Luo Xiu's behavior of wanting to stand shoulder to shoulder with him everywhere.After all, the gossip that the two are incompatible has long been known to everyone.It is said that after the kidnapping case, Luoxiu went to the hospital to ask for credit from Wen Zhuoyu, claiming to be Wen Zhuoyu's savior, but Wen Zhuoyu came back with a few words, and wondered if Luo Xiu knew so much and was in collusion with the kidnapper...

Wen Zhuoyu's question is indeed a question that many people are concerned about.However, there is no actual evidence to prove that Luo Xiu colluded with the kidnappers to murder Gu Xihuai.With the intervention of the Gu family, the accusation was eventually dropped.Luo Xiu also took this as an opportunity to be officially recognized by the Gu family.

After the melon eaters knew about this incident, they envied Luoxiu's good luck on the one hand, and admired the tolerance and generosity of the Gu family on the other hand.After all, not everyone can easily trust an illegitimate child whose source is obviously questionable.

Wen Zhuoyu originally thought that after this incident, he and Luo Xiu would never meet again.Unexpectedly, within a few days, Luo Xiu came to visit the crew.
