Acting depends on immortality, cultivating immortality depends on popularity

When we came to the last room on the top floor of this old house, and got the customs clearance and cards that the program team had placed here in advance, Gong Ningbo kept wiping his red eye circles with a facial tissue, panting, while Cheng Xuan turned his head to take a look first. The rising sun just rose outside the window, smudged the sky into a golden red light.

Then he turned around, held the card in his hand, and said to the audience who were still in front of the camera and watching the live broadcast: "This is the end of our first episode of Haunted House Quest. Facts have proved that only by believing in science Afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night!" As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Gong Ningbo who was beside him and poked him with his elbow: "Isn't Uncle Gong right?"

Gong Ningbo nodded with a busy expression: "Yes, yes, Xuanxuan is right!"

A string flew by in the live broadcast room—Gong Ningbo: Yes, yes, anyway, you are brave enough to say anything!

Cheng Xuan tilted his head and thought about it again, and added: "Of course, this may also have something to do with the large number of people we explored tonight. Maybe the large number of people scares them so that they dare not come out?"

Gong Ningbo: ...

Barrage——Gong Ningbo: Xuanxuan, please shut up!

Cheng Xuan also stopped teasing Gong Ningbo, and gestured towards the screen: "Well, Uncle Gong will join me and say goodbye to the audience friends and netizens who are currently watching the live broadcast?"

Gong Ningbo: "Okay, okay, wait...wait, what live broadcast? Who is live broadcasting??"

Cheng Xuan looked puzzled: "We are live broadcasting..."

Gong Ningbo: "...What is the live broadcast? Isn't this a video recording? Could this be a live broadcast?!"

Cheng Xuan realized something when he heard the other party's voice was broken, and he was surprised: "Huh? Didn't they tell you what to record tonight before Uncle Gong came? Even what to record tonight is Didn't the live show tell you?!"

Gong Ningbo's expression was about to cry. At this time, he was more desperate and sad than when he tossed and thought that he had encountered a ghost several times this night. He squatted directly on the ground, covered his head with his hands, and rubbed his hair vigorously: " No! I don’t know anything about the arrangement tonight!! I, I thought that what I participated in was just a simple, new adventure reality show. Who would have thought that the program group would be so wicked? They tricked me into a haunted house, even This show is a live broadcast and I didn’t tell me in advance!!”

As he said that, he stood up abruptly, circled around the room twice, walked back to Cheng Xuan's side with a look of despair, and began to complain to Cheng Xuan with extremely rich body language: "Fraud Ah! Xuanxuan! Don’t you think so? This is definitely a scam! I didn’t explain anything before, and I knew I was timid and tricked me into a haunted house! I thought I could discuss with the program team after recording the show and make me look ugly Slightly cut out the footage, but who would have thought that they would actually be broadcasting live!!"

The desperation in that voice made the audience who had been watching for a whole night, and the audience who had already started to doze off instantly wake up. people's faces.

Cheng Xuan's expression was full of pity, and he patted his arm after the other party had vented, and reminded him softly: "Uncle Gong, I think, you should take a closer look at the contract after you go back... If I didn't Guess wrong, it should have stated that the show is live...Maybe you didn't see it..."

Gong Ningbo froze for a moment, his mind turned slowly for a while, and then he understood what Cheng Xuan meant, and then realized: what Cheng Xuan said is really possible...

Artists like them have trustworthy managers around them. As long as their managers and legal advisers confirm that there is no problem with these contracts, they are generally not very good at identifying all the above contents one by one.Especially Gong Ningbo has worked with his team for so long, so he naturally believes that they will not cheat him. Even if it is not convenient to tell him the specific recording content, it is mostly for the effect of the program, hoping that he can have a more natural and better performance.

Therefore - he really didn't read the contract carefully before signing it!

Gong Ningbo walked out of the haunted house with a look of lovelessness on his face. After walking out of the haunted house compound, he saw the car he was riding in at a glance, and his manager and several assistants were at this moment. Standing by the side of the car, Gong Ningbo's expression turned ferocious when he saw the person. He rushed over in a few steps, grabbed his manager's shoulder and shook him vigorously: "You actually tricked me! I trust you so much!" , you actually bullied me!!"

Several assistants stepped forward to try to persuade them with a smile, Cheng Xuan slowly walked out of the compound of the ghost house with his hands behind his back, and watched with a smile on the group of people who staggered into their own car.

At this time, a director and others who were guarding near the haunted house, monitoring the live video in real time, and the content of the cameras placed in some corners of the haunted house in advance, came towards Cheng Xuan's direction.

"Xuanxuan worked hard tonight."

Cheng Xuan looked at the director upon hearing the sound, and raised his finger to the car where Gong Ningbo left: "Is this the case for all the guests who will come to the show in the future?"

I didn't expect Cheng Xuan to be so smart, and he guessed the idea of ​​the program group immediately, so the chief director and others nodded and said: "Yes, basically this is the routine, but when our live broadcast tonight comes out, The guests who will come to our program in the future will probably realize what kind of program they are participating in as soon as they are brought to the location and see you..." The director couldn't help but shake his head and sigh with emotion, "Hey, In this way, the entertainment will be reduced a lot, after all, if you know that they are participating in the live broadcast, not the recorded broadcast, these guests will definitely perform!"

The corners of Cheng Xuan's mouth couldn't help twitching. It's not easy for people to set up a personal profile. How much enmity is there between the show crew and those star actors?Is it necessary to use this method to let people reveal their true nature?

After bidding farewell to the program group, Cheng Xuan went straight back to his car. Yu Li also brought Puppet, who had been waiting nearby last night, and Die Die, a make-up artist and assistant, in the car. After there were no outsiders, the Butterfly Demon asked him excitedly and curiously: "How is it? How is it? Are there any ghosts in there?"

When they waited for Chengxuan last night, they stayed in their own cars and did not see the equipment on the car used by the director team, so they could only see the pictures captured by the main camera with the crowd of onlookers , and there are some things that the camera cannot capture.

Cheng Xuan waved his hands boredly: "It's just that the yin energy is heavier than other places. I took a closer look with my yin and yang eyes when I walked halfway around. There is no major problem. In fact, there is no need for this house to be abandoned. Just find some If you are more knowledgeable about Feng Shui, come and have a look, and adjust the various things that are not suitable inside, and it will be completely livable.”

Yu Li said with a calm face: "This house has long been famous, unless people like us know how to do it, no one would buy it and renovate it."

However, even practitioners like Chengxuan and the others, who are proficient in this aspect, would not buy such a house with a heavy yin on purpose. Forget it.

Hearing that there are no ghosts in the house, the Butterfly Demon showed a lack of interest, folded his arms behind his head, raised his legs and swayed his feet, and hummed an unknown tune.

As soon as he left this old house that was said to be haunted, Cheng Xuan immediately joined the crew of a horror movie and continued his busy shooting work.

The cooperation with Director Feng has been going on for several years. These long-established directors all have a characteristic, that is, once they get used to working with certain actors, the two parties have similar interests and can talk easily, and they don’t care too much about each other’s interests. In the case of problems, they will often cooperate afterwards.

Therefore, many great directors who have been famous for a long time have the so-called hero and heroine for the queen.

There are not many films that are suitable for Cheng Xuan to play the leading role, unless he turns around and participates in children's drama performances. However, Cheng Xuan, whose development path is different from other child actors from the beginning, seems to have never had such an opportunity. At the beginning of his debut, he had a cooperating director who has maintained a good cooperative relationship.

Most of Director Feng's films can add children's roles, although most of them are not starring roles, but even if he only needs a passer-by child role in his film, he will give priority to calling Cheng Xuan to come and play a cameo .As long as Cheng Xuan has enough time, he will basically not refuse. Even if some roles are too small, but they need to show their faces, Cheng Xuan will simply play for free as a friend and will not care too much.

The role played by Cheng Xuan this time is such a dispensable passer-by who only needs to show a few scenes.To Chengxuan's surprise, when he joined the group this time, director Feng and screenwriter Li were waiting for him specially.

Cheng Xuan got out of the car with a puzzled expression on his face, walked to the entrance of the studio, looked at Director Feng with a puzzled expression on his face, and then turned his head to look at Screenwriter Li with bright eyes: "Why is it so grand today? You are waiting for me at the door? "As he spoke, he turned around and looked back. There were no other cars that had just parked here. Presumably they weren't here waiting for other big names to come and guide them, right?

Director Feng put his arms around Cheng Xuan's shoulders with a smile, and while leading him inside, he couldn't wait to ask him: "I watched the live broadcast of the variety show you participated in before, how was it? Did you find anything in that house? "

Screenwriter Li also took out the pen and paper she used to carry with her with bright eyes, with a face ready to record at any time: "Xuanxuan, in the places that the camera didn't capture, and there were a few times in the middle that you didn't talk to me. Did the cameraman find any surprises when they walked together?"

In this world, the two specialists in horror films are probably the only ones who can connect encounters with ghosts, seeing inexplicable events and surprises together?

Cheng Xuan shook his head speechlessly: "No, really not!"

Director Feng had a look of disbelief: "Gong Ningbo has been yelling and shouting all night, but there is no time when he really found anything weird?"

Cheng Xuan's expression was distorted for a moment, and he rubbed his ears that had been tortured during the recording of the show with some headaches: "Isn't that person usually overreacting to become popular on variety shows? He is really courageous It’s relatively small! A little wind and grass, and the sound of the floor can make him jump up in place. Anyway, I really didn’t see anything weird. If you two are curious, you can go there and experience it yourself.”

Director Feng and screenwriter Li's expression lost instantly when they heard the words, and they bowed their hands and said: "I'm so busy, how can I find time?"

The other also put away his small notebook, pretending that he didn't hear anything.

In fact, Cheng Xuan has already noticed that although these two guys are very interested in things with supernatural themes, when they are really asked to go around the so-called place where the incident happened, where they are likely to encounter unclean things, they will I don't have that guts anymore.

Unless they are emboldened by the people who bring the whole crew, whether it is the scenes used for shooting, casting actors, or selecting people, they will look for the scenes that have been set up in the true sense, and they are related to these supernatural events. Normal people on the edge.
