Coquettish

Chapter 4 Opportunity

After Xie Yan returned to her rental house, she took out her mobile phone and approved Fu Qing's WeChat application.Fu Qing's profile picture should be the locust tree in front of the door, Xie Yan looked at it for a long time, and changed his note to the former school bully.

The rental house is not big, the bedroom only accommodates the next bed, the bathroom is a few square meters in size, and there is no kitchen, and the remaining few square meters can barely be called a living room.Anyway, Xie Yan never entertained people, and the meaning of the living room was close to nothing.

Xie Yan lay on the bed, calculating how much money she had left.He doesn't have the habit of saving money, and he can't save money when he is a group performer. Generally speaking, it is not bad if he can earn the necessary living expenses for the next month.But because of the incident with the male number five last time, he put off a lot of work, and his life for the next month is in jeopardy.

He doesn't care much about money. If he really can't get a job, he can go to the construction site to move bricks for a few days to make a living.But this time was different, Xie Yan was still thinking about treating Fu Qing to a good meal, which would cost a lot of money.

I need to save money (Brother Fu is invited to dinner).

Xie Yan wrote down this item in the memo, and at the same time deleted more than a dozen previous items, all of which were related to the male number five role.

After thinking about this, he sent a WeChat message to a person named Chen Shu, saying that he would be able to pick up the job tomorrow.Chen Shu is the "manager" of their group performances. He has contacts with various production crews and holds jobs in his hands. Every time a job is negotiated, he needs to get a commission.Some dreamy ensemble performers will please these agents, get a better job, have a few lines, show their faces, and get more money.

But this has nothing to do with Xie Yan, so he plays the corpse most of the time, and a few as the background wall of the human body.

When it was dark, Xie Yan got up to make a bowl of noodles, added ham sausage, he was always easy to feed, he was not picky about what he ate, but now he somehow missed the taste of longevity noodles yesterday.

Maybe it's because it's all noodles.

Before the noodles were finished, news came from Chen Shu first, not because he had a job, but to ask him, "Xie Yan, how many times have you acted in "Eight Kings Chaos"?"

"The Rebellion of the Eight Kings" is an ancient costume war drama, because the demand for corpses is too large, Xie Yan even played corpses in it six times, and the way of death is different each time.

Xie Yan poked the screen a few times with his left hand, "Six times."

The other side quickly returned, "Do you still remember what you played every time?"

Xie Yan finally put down his chopsticks, he thought for a moment, wrote down the identity and method of death of each time he acted as a corpse, and sent it over.

After a while, Chen Shu sent a WeChat message, "Hey, you are about to send it. Just now, Wang Ning asked me to ask you. She said she wanted to talk to you about something. If you want, I will be at the Xiaoqiao Cafe at [-] o'clock tomorrow afternoon. See."

Wang Ning is the screenwriter of "The Rebellion of the Eight Kings", and he is husband and wife with the director Feng Xianping. The couple set up a husband-and-wife team. One wrote and the other filmed. They cooperated tacitly and had a good reputation in the industry. Although the output was not high, all of them were high-quality goods.

After Xie Yan agreed, Chen Shu immediately gave him a small job, which happened to be near the coffee shop.

The instant noodles had been cold for a long time, Xie Yan didn't waste it, she still ate it seriously, one bite at a time.

The entertainment industry is a place where dreams are easy to create, but Xie Yan rarely dreams.He didn't expect to become famous overnight and become a star. His original intention of joining here was to act, and it still hasn't changed.

Take one step at a time, act if you can act, and go back to move bricks if you can't act.

No matter how bad the day is, you can't chase your dreams.But it's okay now, so it can't go bad.

Xie Yan thought very chicly and thoughtfully, washed her face with cold water, looked at herself in the mirror, lay back on the slightly narrow bed, and soon fell asleep.

The next day the weather was fine. Xie Yan originally wanted to act as a corpse in a criminal investigation drama, but because he dyed his hair green, which didn’t match the character’s setting, he was about to leave, but was called back by the director, saying that it was okay. Playing the role of a gangster who was caught from a dance hall, and was caught by the male protagonist and forced to ask what happened just now.

Just a few lines, the director didn't spend much time on this shot. Xie Yan didn't leave after filming, but went to the back of the scene to watch the replay.He was tall, so he didn't need to get too close, he stretched his body and poked his head over.

The photographer next to him looked at Xie Yan's face, touched the fish and smoked a cigarette, pointed at the camera and said, "Hey, young man, you look better on camera than the leading actor."

Xie Yan looked at it carefully for a while, and said seriously: "I think so too. But in this scene, the punks shouldn't be more eye-catching than the police."

This is why both he and the male protagonist are not good at acting.But whether the acting is good or not, whether to reshoot or not, is not up to him to decide.

Suddenly a gloomy voice came from the side, "Boy, you are very courageous, don't you know that I am the hero!"

As soon as Xie Yan turned her head, she saw a magnified face, which was Yang Xun, the male lead of the show.Yang Xun is the hottest young fresh meat recently. He has acted in several popular idol dramas. Now that the resources are great, he has caught up with this main theme criminal investigation drama.

Yang Xun didn't expect that he would wipe his sweat here, and he could hear the cameraman and a group performer commenting on his face.

The most important thing was that not only did others say it, but he also watched the scene just now, and he was really overwhelmed by the extras.

Really heartbroken.

After all, it is the leading actor, and the photographer looked flustered, and he was a little worried that this matter would go to the director, but Yang Xun was obviously not an ordinary person, and he didn't take the usual route. Scene defeated Xie Yan, and said to him: "Although you look better than me, what's the use, you're not a group performer. You give me your WeChat, let's add it, and if there are any dramas in the future, I'll let you know." Looking for you."

Yang Xun smiled and narrowed his eyes, looking very proud, and deliberately emphasized his tone, "Be my extra performer, next time you will definitely not be as good as me in filming."

Xie Yan took two steps back, frowned, and looked at Yang Xun coldly, with two words clearly written on his face - sick.

He didn't even say a word, just took the bill and left.

He didn't even give Yang Xun a look.

Yang Xun asked the little assistant, "Didn't I say that if you look good, you can do whatever you want? Why is he so arrogant?"

The little assistant looked at Xie Yan's receding figure, then looked away, wiped his sweat conscientiously for him, and replied honestly, "Yes, Brother Yang, you taught me. He is so good-looking, look If you quarrel with him, I won't help you."

Yang Xun was furious, "Shut up!"

Because of the temporary change of roles, and the later appearance, a lot of time wasted, Xie Yan ran to the coffee shop.He walked in, and there were not many people inside. Wang Ning was sitting by the window. She was over 40 years old, and she didn't look very good-looking, but she was serious and friendly. When she saw Xie Yan, she smiled and said, "Xiao Xie It’s still early, so don’t worry.”

Sweat dripped from Xie Yan's forehead, and he wiped it off with the paper towel Wang Ning handed over. After saying hello, he sat across from him.

Wang Ning asked him what he wanted to drink, ordered a glass of juice at the end, and looked at him twice carefully, "You look really good. I just started to think that you are the kind of person who is particularly photogenic. Maybe a real person looks like you." It’s not as good as on the screen, otherwise, why would I keep doing group performances.”

Xie Yan didn't understand what she meant, and silently sipped the juice.

Wang Ning is the screenwriter of "The Rebellion of the Eight Kings" and also the director's wife. She participated in the production of the whole play from beginning to end, and even the editing had to be carefully watched bit by bit before she noticed Xie Yan.In fact, she only found three scenes of Xie Yan. Although they were all playing corpses, his acting was different from others, even different from her own acting every time, so she found someone to contact Xie Yan and asked him what happened. What did you do.After getting the answer, I turned out those shots and watched them again, only to find it very interesting.

Xie Yan was taking pictures of corpses, but it wasn't just a human prop.Even if it is a corpse, he will perform the changes according to the different methods of death and the different circumstances at the time.

This is for myself, if it is not by chance, no one will notice.

But Wang Ning saw it. She saw such a Xie Yan, so she couldn't help feeling a little pity for her talent. In addition, she did have an opportunity, "I have an old friend who has been preparing to make a movie for a long time, and has been short of a leading actor. If you can't find the right person, do you want to try?"

After hearing this, Xie Yan didn't immediately agree, but asked: "It's been so long in preparation, and it's your friend, how come no one is willing to act?"

Wang Ning smiled wryly, "My friend is a stubborn old man. He has written the script for several years, revised and revised it, and he doesn't like other people's finger pointing when he is filming.

"There are only two requirements for the leading actor he wants. One is to be good-looking and young; the other is to be serious. He can act hard enough to grind slowly."

Speaking of this, Wang Ning paused, "But someone who is good-looking and willing to endure hardships should have been popular long ago. They are too expensive, and he can't afford the price. So as soon as I saw you, I wanted to recommend you to him. But this Although it is a leading actor, it is a niche film, not to mention the salary."

Wang Ning has always been a decent person, if Xie Yan really wanted to try, she would have told the truth in advance.

This reason is really ridiculous.

Xie Yan took a deep breath, put down the juice, pressed his fingertips tightly against the glass wall, "I'm going."

He wants to act.
