He really doesn't want to be popular with Pixiu [Entertainment Circle]

Ling Xiu got up.

"Sister, let me answer the phone. Director Peng is calling."

Shen Jianshu nodded, "Go, maybe there is something important to find you."

Ling Xiu walked quickly to the balcony outside the hotel room and picked up the phone.

"Director Peng, hello."

Since the last time he thanked Peng Shu on WeChat, the two hadn't been in touch for a long time.

The other party called suddenly, to be honest, Ling Xiu felt a little nervous.

"Xiao Ling." Peng Shu is a straightforward person who doesn't go around in circles, "I called you today to ask for your help."

Ling Xiu was very strange.

Can I still help the other party?

"Director Peng, you are too polite. If you need anything, just say it."

"It's like this." Peng Shu said: "I have a friend who is a young director who just graduated this year. He needs to shoot a micro-movie to participate in the Youth Film Festival, and it will start in about ten days. But at this time the original lead actor is filming He was injured while hanging Wia and needs to rest for a month. He is very anxious now, I would like to ask if you can help save the game."

"Okay, no problem." Ling Xiu agreed without any hesitation.

If Peng Shu hadn't sent Wei Quan the audition video, he would never have had the chance to audition for "Light of the Abyss", let alone the role he likes very much.

Now Director Peng asks him to help with something, and he has to agree to it both emotionally and rationally.

What's more, if it's filmed more than ten days later, the movie will just finish, so it won't affect anything.

Peng Shu was a little surprised that he agreed so quickly.

But then he smiled heartily on the phone.

"You didn't even ask the agent's schedule, and you didn't even ask if you were paid, so you agreed to come down like this. You are a fool, you are not afraid of being tricked."

"You won't cheat me." Ling Xiu said seriously.

"Xiao Ling, you're an honest kid, that's interesting." Peng Shu said, "I'll ask my friend to formally communicate with your agent for follow-up matters. Don't worry, my friend is also an honest person and won't cheat anyone. If he dares to cheat You, I will be the first to not let him go."

"Ok Director Peng, waiting for your friend's message."

……

After hanging up the phone, Ling Xiu let the evening breeze blow, and instantly calmed down.

In fact, Director Peng is right. When someone invites you, according to the rules, you should first discuss it with your agent.

After all, he signed a contract with a brokerage company.

After entering the living room, Ling Xiu sat back on the sofa.

Chang Xiaosong was still surfing the Internet, making all kinds of suppressed weird laughter from time to time.

Shen Jianshu was very busy. He was plugging in his earphones and having a video conference with his colleagues in the company.

After she finished her work and took off the earphones, Ling Xiu honestly reported to Shen Jianshu the content of the conversation with Peng Shu just now.

"Sister, I'm sorry." After finishing speaking, he immediately apologized sincerely, "It's wrong for me to agree to Director Peng without asking you."

Shen Jianshu's calm face suddenly burst into a smile.

"You don't need to apologize, this is you. It is because you are kind, upright and loyal that so many people like you."

"But I didn't even ask if there was a schedule or if there would be any compensation." Ling Xiu said in a low voice, "In case the film is postponed or there is a job like a business magazine..."

"Fool." Shen Jianshu shook his head with a smile, "You think Director Peng is so unreliable. With his relationship with Director Wei, he must have asked you when the movie will be finished. I guess there must be a reward. As for Magazines and business can be interspersed in the shooting process of micro-movies."

"Sister, you promised me to take over this job?" Ling Xiu said excitedly.

"Of course." Shen Jianshu closed the notebook and stuffed it into the tote bag.

"Director Peng is your benefactor, and this favor must be repaid. And I know that he is a friend who has never been friends. He is a very talented newcomer director. He graduated from the director department of the Film Academy. He made a lot of eye-catching films when he was in college. , and some of them won awards. I saw his graduation works, and they are very good. If you cooperate with him, you may have some sparks, I am looking forward to it.”

"Sister, you are so amazing." Ling Xiu was extremely impressed, "I have even seen the works of new directors who have just graduated."

"Doing this business is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. You have to learn and watch everything. Not only movies, but even low-cost and small-produced online dramas. I have to bite the bullet and watch." Shen Jianshu picked up his bag and got up, "Okay Now, I have to go back to the city. It will be finished in ten days, this is your first movie, and it is also a movie produced by a famous director, so there can be no mistakes."

Ling Xiu looked solemn, "Don't worry, sister, I will go all out to finish the project."

"Believe you, you have always been great." Shen Jianshu patted him on the shoulder, and suddenly, as if remembering something, his eyes glanced at the coffee table, and his expression immediately changed, and his eyes became sharp.

"The box of instant noodles that the brand sent you, have you eaten so much?"

Ling Xiu quickly sent a message to Chang Xiaosong with his eyes.

In a blink of an eye, Chang Xiaosong got what his brother meant.

"Sister, I ate most of these instant noodles. My brother just tasted it and didn't eat much."

In order to show the authenticity of his words, he also patted Ling Xiu's stomach, "Look at my brother's flat stomach with eight-pack abs, no matter how you look at it, he is not a glutton for instant noodles."

Shen Jianshu snorted coldly, "It's better like this. Even if you plan to endorse instant noodles, you can't eat too much."

"Understood, sister." Ling Xiu immediately expressed his opinion, "Now that the movie has not finished, we must refuse instant noodles and maintain a healthy diet."

Seeing off Shen Jianshu, Ling Xiu and Chang Xiaosong both collapsed on the sofa.

"It was dangerous just now."

Chang Xiaosong sighed, touched Ling Xiu's abdominal muscles, and said happily, "Fortunately, you are not fat, otherwise my assistant will be fired by Sister Shu soon."

"If you're fired, you can only go back and inherit the family business?" Ling Xiu raised his eyebrows.

Chang Xiaosong couldn't stop laughing, "Brother, you have learned badly from unscrupulous netizens."

"Anyway, now that you believe me, I won't gain weight, right?" Ling Xiu raised his face with a smug look.

Chang Xiaosong gave a thumbs up, "Neither fat nor swollen, with an immortal physique."

Ling Xiu crossed his arms and turned his face away, his face was full of anger.

... What is the physique of a fairy, he is a god in the first place.

The thing about instant noodles is also quite interesting.

Because he wanted to try out the brand's products, Ling Xiu received a box of instant noodles, a box of energy drinks and many small cakes.

Originally, he thought that he would like sweet and soft cakes the most, but after trying instant noodles, he seemed to have opened up a new world of gourmet food.

Because Chang Xiaosong didn't like instant noodles, Ling Xiu had never eaten them before.

This one is unbelievable, and I immediately fell in love with it.

The instant noodle brand sent a variety of flavors, some soaked, some mixed, and some dried.

Ling Xiu is like a mouse falling into a rice bowl, the first thing he does when he returns to the hotel every day is to eat instant noodles.

Watching him eat instant noodles at first made Chang Xiaosong very worried.Instant noodles are high in calories and heavy in taste, and they will become swollen if you eat them without getting fat. How can you make a movie with this?

So he tried his best to stop it.

But Lingxiu is not a baby in kindergarten, he can't watch him all the time.Taking advantage of his inattention, Ling Xiu still ate instant noodles and went his own way.

Chang Xiaosong collapsed for a while.

But when he found that no matter how much Ling Xiu ate the instant noodles, he still maintained his tight muscles and perfect figure, so he decided to lie flat and stop interfering.

"But, is this thing really so delicious?" Chang Xiaosong often asks questions from the soul, "Instant noodles just smell good, and it hurts to eat. I feel sick after taking two bites at most. Brother, are you not tired of eating it? "

"Not greasy." Ling Xiu shook his head resolutely, "There are so many flavors of instant noodles, how can they be greasy. Today I eat egg yolk noodles, tomorrow I can eat sour soup noodles, and the day after tomorrow I can eat tomato and egg stewed noodles."

Chang Xiaosong: ...

Enough is enough, he is already full just listening to it.

"Brother, I think you are the only one who loves junk food, and you are very stubborn. Forget it, I'm going to cook, you can read the script." He got up and gave Ling Xiu a stern warning, "Today I made chicken soup, and I still want to fry Celery and shrimp, you are not allowed to eat instant noodles!"

Ling Xiu said OK, "Mr. Chang has the final say."

……

Golden autumn and October have the most beautiful scenery in Yunjing.

The city is full of golden yellow leaves, and the mountains in the outskirts are plated with light red maple leaves, which is warm and beautiful.

Today is Ling Xiu's last day on the set of "Light of the Abyss".

He's one play away from wrapping up.

Coincidentally, the scene to be filmed today is also the last scene of the male lead in the movie.

This scene is divided into three acts, which are very important.Especially in the first act, although there are no lines, it is quite a test for the actors.

Ling Xiu came to the set early.

While the staff was busy preparing, he put on his earphones and sat alone in a corner to brew his emotions.

Gentle music came from the earphones, and Ling Xiu slowly recalled the experience of the male number two from childhood to adulthood.

Those sad, happy, relaxed, and desperate things came to my mind one by one.

Gradually, Ling Xiu felt that he had become another person, that young man who longed for light in his heart despite the darkness of the world.

The music in the earphones flowed slowly, and finally calmed down.

It's almost time.

Ling Xiu took off his earphones only to realize that there are many people on the set today.

Shen Jianshu and the hero and heroine of the movie are here.

They did not speak to him, but stood quietly aside, not wanting to affect his emotions.

Chang Xiaosong was not as noisy as before, holding the cup, sitting on a small stool and watching Ling Xiu intently.

"Attention all departments, shooting will start in 5 minutes."

The assistant director shouted with a loudspeaker, "The lights are in place, the props are in place, and the actors are in place."

Ling Xiu silently stood beside the stool.

He lowered his head, waiting for the official start of filming.

"It's almost there." Director Jing Pengcheng's voice woke Ling Xiu up from his concentrating state.

Ling Xiu opened his eyes and became a completely different person.

Jing Pengcheng sat in front of the monitor, put on headphones, picked up the microphone, "Let's get started."

The field worker is playing the board next to it.

"October [-], Scene [-], Scene [-], ah!"

The room was dark except for a gleam of light coming in through the cracks in the curtains.

The male number two played by Ling Xiu took off his glasses, shoes and coat, and put them neatly on the sofa.

Then he went to the middle of the room and climbed onto the stool.

A hemp rope circle dangled in front of his eyes, so dazzling and so fascinating.

The male number two looked back at the humble "home" and slowly put his head into the noose.

He showed a calm smile and kicked off the stool under his feet neatly.

In an instant, many things flashed through his mind.

Mother, father, childhood house.

The stray dog ​​he rescued, and the little baby who had been properly arranged by him.

It's time for this to end.

Originally, he thought he would be happy, but great pain hit him, making him extremely uncomfortable.

His physical instinct for survival made him struggle.

The old-fashioned electric fan couldn't bear the violent struggle and broke directly.

Male number two fell to the ground.

He was coughing violently, in a trance, and his mind was dark.

At this moment, a loud noise hit.

Then he heard a soft, sad whimper, and felt something wet|hot brush his cheek.

Male number two opened his eyes.

The stray dog ​​was lying beside him, licking his face tenderly.

Behind it, a light shone into the room.

A tear fell from the corner of his eye.

The second male number reached out and touched Gouzi's head.

"Crack!"

Jing Pengcheng's voice sounded, "One pass, very good!"

Ling Xiu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and got up quickly.

When he stood up, he realized that many people on the set were weeping - including the leading actor, who had been nominated for Best Actor several times and was recognized as a capable actor in the circle.

Even director Jing Pengcheng's eyes were red.

Ling Xiu walked to the monitor, looked at the long shot just now, and couldn't help but wet his eyes again.

"Very good." Director Jing Pengcheng said, "Xiao Ling, the state you performed is the ideal state in my heart. The feeling of being fragile and strong while facing death is great."

"Thank you, Director Jing." Ling Xiu sniffed.

Jing Pengcheng handed over the tissue, "Take a break for a few minutes, let's continue. Take it away while you're in the right mood now."

"Okay." Ling Xiu took the tissue and wiped away the tears on his face, then returned to his seat to rest.

In order to maintain his current mood and state, Ling Xiu didn't even take a sip of water.

After a few minutes, the filming resumed.

The remaining two scenes are the warm interaction between the male number two and Gouzi, and the male number two finally completed self-salvation and dialed the male protagonist's phone.

Rhubarb is smart and obedient, so it goes without saying that he cooperates with Ling Xiu.The completion of this scene was very good, and everyone on the set was very moved.

The one who cried the most was the dog trainer, Brother Feng.

If it weren't for the need for silence on the set, he might have been crying.

After filming this scene, he wiped his tears and said: "Oh my god, Xiao Ling, your acting skills are great. And it's the first time I saw Rhubarb have such superb acting skills, it's so gratifying."

What he said was serious, but it made the others laugh.

Except the rhubarb was a bit dissatisfied.

"Wow wow wow wow!"

——My acting skills have always been very good!

The last scene is relatively simple. The male number two played by Ling Xiu has experienced life and death, and finally clears away the haze in his heart and is determined to welcome the sunshine.

He lay on the ground, took out his mobile phone, and dialed the male lead's number.

"I surrender."

After saying these words, the male number two played by Ling Xiu smiled again.

Unlike before, this time his smile was calm and relieved.

He finally completed self-salvation.

Since then, the darkness can no longer swallow him up.No matter what the consequences are, he accepts them frankly.

"Crack! It's over, very good!"

After Director Jing Pengcheng finished speaking, he took off his earphones and gave a standing ovation, "Xiao Ling, congratulations!"

The staff sent flowers, Chang Xiaosong and Shen Jianshu sprayed out ribbons, the co-stars stepped forward to hug him, Rhubarb and Xiaobai danced around excitedly at his feet, and everyone on the set applauded to celebrate his completion.

At this moment, Ling Xiu had nothing but emotion in his heart.

"Thank you everyone." He bowed deeply holding the flowers, "Thank you very much everyone."

At this moment, he didn't know what to say except to keep saying thank you.

The crew held a lively wrap-up banquet for Ling Xiu.

Everyone happily ate hot pot and exchanged contact information.

Ling Xiu also summoned up the courage to add WeChat with the two directors.

Both Jing Pengcheng and Wei Quan spoke highly of him, especially Wei Quan, who admired Ling Xiu very much.

"We will cooperate again when there is a suitable opportunity."

Hearing these words, Ling Xiu felt that everything was worth it.

After this job is over, Ling Xiu will leave the film crew and return to the city.

Xiaobai was his adopted puppy, so he had to take it away.

When Ling Xiu went to the dog school to pick up Xiaobai, this guy was playing wildly with Dahuang on the lawn.

The two dogs, one big and one small, chased each other, huddled together for a while, and licked each other intimately for a while.

The picture is really warm, and the corners of Ling Xiu's mouth are turned up unconsciously.

"These two are so happy every day." Brother Feng also smiled when he saw it, "Xiaobai is lucky, he escaped from death and met such a good master as you, and he will have a good life in the future."

"I will do my best to take good care of it." Ling Xiu said.

"Follow you to live in a building, I don't know if this crazy boy is used to it."

When Da Huang heard the master's words, he suddenly stopped.

It ran up to Ling Xiu quickly, its eyes full of disbelief.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo."

——Is the stinky fart going to leave?
