This actor needs more money

Chapter 168 Meeting Mr. Fan

Ding Xiu didn't say anything, he just turned his head and looked at Qin Gang and Yaoyao.

I thought you two had a great time.

Another six, another nine.

The shooting techniques are not inferior to those of professionals.

After being glanced at by Ding Xiu, the secretary was embarrassed to stay any longer, so he blushed and said he was going to the bathroom.

Only Ding Xiu and Qin Gang were left watching the video.

"Performing martial arts in the Spring Festival Gala has become a tradition. It has been happening for several years. I didn't sign up last year because I was afraid that people would look down on me. This year I will try my best to compete."

"Your martial arts are so powerful, it would be a pity not to show them to the national audience."

After regaining his composure, Lao Qin didn't feel embarrassed at all and talked about business openly.

Men know everything, he just wants to have fun and share their experiences.

Ding Xiu propped up his chin, looked at the video and said, "Is it possible?"

There are many famous martial arts masters in the country. In terms of beauty, Shicha Martial Arts School is full of people, and they have mastered all kinds of martial arts skills.

"Who knows, anyway, just give it a try. You are famous and have skills, so you should, maybe have a chance."

How dare Qin Gang guarantee such a thing?

"I'll take the video back and find someone to edit it. I'll make a finished video first to see how it turns out. If I have nothing to do these days, I'll record a few more clips. We'll take the one with the best effect and hand it over."

"By the way, the knife kick at the end is good, very eye-catching, and similar actions are arranged."

Ding Xiu thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

The action of kicking the knife is fancy and useless, it just looks good. He can also do many more difficult actions than this.

Qin Gang put away the video: "Then I'll go back first and let you know if anything happens."

"Yao Yao, let's go!"

"coming."

In the bathroom, the secretary took a closer look at the design of the bathroom in Ding Xiu's home.

The handrails on the wall are very spiritual.

I heard it was designed by Qin Gang.

Sure enough, middle-aged men still know how to play.

It's a pity that Ding Xiu, a young man, was led astray without being aware of it. Qin Gang did a lot of harm to others.

"Let's go, Brother Xiu."

After saying hello to Ding Xiu, the secretary stepped on high heels and left with Qin Gang.

In the afternoon, Qinlan's villa.

By the swimming pool, Ding Xiu was wearing only a pair of underpants, sleeping on a lounge chair, reading the script with a script in his hand.

The complete script hasn't been released yet, so he can only read this incomplete script.

Strong Wang style.

Just like the previous World No. 1, it’s just a big platter.

In the original novel "The Two Prides", Xiao Yu'er is the younger brother, but in this drama he becomes the older brother.

Jiang Biehe's son Jiang Yulang became his daughter Jiang Yuyan.

The originally grim martial arts novel was transformed into a hodgepodge of comedy, romance, martial arts, etc., subverting the original theme of retribution and brotherly murder.

It's all about you love me, I love him, he doesn't love me, and finally we fall in love but don't love each other anymore.

It's a bit like a costume idol drama.

It was completely different from what Ding Xiu had imagined.

What is Jianghu? Jianghu has both lee and face. When chatting at the table, they are as close as brothers. When the interests are not distributed properly, there will be swords and swords at the table.

But more peace brings wealth.

After all, there are always fights and killings, who has many lives?

Falling in love with an enemy, getting into a fight over a woman, and a woman plotting against a man, these things are simply impossible to happen.

"Wow!"

While Ding Xiu was meditating on the script, by the swimming pool, Qin Lan in a swimsuit came out of the water, raised her head, and her long hair spread like a waterfall around her lower back.

Drops of water covered the skin as white as jade.

Lying down by the pool, she took a sip of red wine from the tray on the shore: "Still looking at your little fish in full bloom?"

"It won't work if you don't look at it. This time the opponent is Zhang Weijian."

When you work with an older generation of artists, if you have a good temper, they will lead you to perform and give you guidance. If you have a bad temper, if you don't perform well, you will immediately scold you.

Although Ding Xiu has never met anyone who dares to scold him, it is always right to do a better job after accepting the money.

Qin Lan said: "Didn't we film a version of Peerless Twins a few years ago, starring Lin Zhiying and Su Youpeng? You can use it as a reference, it will be much better than your own imagination."

"I know that. The reference is of little significance. The script has been changed too much and is different in many places."

"We haven't started the movie yet. If you can't think about it, just forget about it. When the time comes, you can act however the director asks you to act. If you think too much, people will say that you have too many things to do and change the characters randomly."

"It makes sense." Ding Xiu closed the script, got off the lounge chair, and walked step by step towards the swimming pool. When he was still a few meters away, he sprinted and jumped into the water.

A few seconds later, Qin Lan appeared from behind.

In September, Ding Xiu received a call from Wang Jin, asking him to try on clothes and meet with the martial arts instructor to discuss his fighting style.

When he arrived, other actors in the crew were also there. There were more than a dozen people, some male and female, some looked familiar and some they had never seen before.

"Isn't this Sister Zhu?"

In the crowd, Ding Xiu saw his "mother" Queen Mother Yin Yue.

Zhu Yan is good at costume dramas and has been playing the role of Lu Ye in major film and television dramas all year round. Because of her good acting skills and good looks, she is known as the number one costume Lu Ye in Mainland China.

From A Chinese Ghost Story to Xiao Yuer and Hua Wuque, it is obvious that she has caught Li Huizhu's eyes.

"Brother Xiu, long time no see." Zhu Yan smiled and waved hello.

She has worked with many of the actors in this crew. Considering that everyone got along well in the past, life after joining the crew should not be too difficult.

This relieved her.

What she usually fears most is encountering the scheming crew.

It's all just to make ends meet. Filming is already tiring enough, so why bother.

Ding Xiu was wearing a sweatshirt and put his hands in his pockets as he approached and said, "Sister Zhu, we're seeing you outside. Didn't you call me that before?"

Zhu Yan was stunned for a moment: "Er smash?"

Ding Xiu: "..."

"Hahaha, I'm just kidding." Zhu Yan, a charming woman in her thirties, covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Little brother, don't be angry."

Before Ding Xiu was not popular, she would occasionally call him son as a joke on the set, but more often she would call him little brother, little Ding Ding, etc.

Today is different from the past. Ding Xiu has become famous. Several dramas have been aired one after another. He is no longer the little Ding Ding he used to be.

If you use random names again, you might offend people.

But depending on the situation, Tintin is still the same Tintin.

Ding Xiu pursed his lips and smiled and said, "Let's have dinner together after a while. I'll treat you."

"Okay, no problem." Zhu Yan has long been accustomed to Ding Xiu's generosity: "What role are you playing this time?"

"The flowers are intact."

"Okay, you hero, please cover me up."

"That's necessary. You used to protect me."

"You are so old, how can I cover you?"

"It can be covered, it can be covered."

While the two were chatting, a young and beautiful woman came over with a smile: "Sister Zhu, why don't you introduce such a handsome guy to me?"

Facing the woman, Zhu Yan said: "This still requires an introduction. Who doesn't know our Ding Xiu?"

He said to Ding Xiu: "Fan Binbin, this time you play Tie Xinlan. You two seem to be playing opposite each other."

"Hello, sister Binbin." Ding Xiu extended his hand to say hello in a gentlemanly manner.

Fan Binbin made her debut in Huanzhugege, where she played the role of the maid Jin Suo. Later she signed a contract with Huayi and went on to act in many dramas, including Republican dramas, urban dramas, and ancient costumes.

The starring roles were not very popular, but the supporting roles left a lot of impressions on the audience.

For example, the little dragonfly in Young Bao Qingtian, Princess Ping'an in The Lion's Roar from Hedong, and Yun Lei in The Shadow of the Foot.

Last year, with Huayi's support, she partnered with Ge You and played the leading female role in Feng Xiaogang's movie Cell Phone. She won this year's Popular Film Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress, stepping into the second tier in one fell swoop.

Speaking of which, her and Ding Xiu's development trajectories are quite similar. The two are about the same age. They both came from grassroots backgrounds. They debuted in supporting roles and gradually got to where they are today.

The difference is that she debuted relatively early, and it took her eight years to get to where she is today.

Shaking hands with Ding Xiu, Fan Binbin said: "Hello, Brother Xiu, I am younger than you, but you call me old."

Ding Xiu glanced at him, he was not small at all. To be fair, this guy's looks and figure were indeed very durable, even better than Zhu Yan's.

At the age of twenty-three, it is the time when a girl is ready to be young and beautiful. Looking at the entertainment industry, she is one of the best beauties.

Fan Binbin is young and has a lot of limelight. As a female artist that Huayi strongly supports, she often dominates the crowd at major award shows and has a lot of topics and news.

He has great intentions of chasing Zhang Ziyi.

Ding Xiu, a person who doesn't pay much attention to entertainment news, often sees news about her.

"Really? I'm sorry. My debut time is short. Please take care of me after joining the group."

"No, I also became a monk halfway."

"Modestly, you won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress."

"It's just good luck. To put it this way, Brother Xiu, you are still the best actor in Cannes."

Ding Xiu is ashamed, he is not the Best Actor at Cannes. Although the award is good, it is not the Best Actor, so it just fools the audience who don't understand.

Fan Binbin’s Hundred Flowers Award-winning heroine is the real deal.

These days, the flowers outside the wall are not as fragrant as those inside. Many viewers have never heard of his award. The Hundred Flowers Award is different. It is broadcast live on TV and is a major event in the industry every year.

"Ahem, let's not talk about this. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."

Fan Binbin blinked and said with a smile, "Okay."

She is quite interested in this person of her own age.

Only she knows how hard she has been and how much hard work she has put in to get to where she is today. But Ding Xiu is so poor that he has to keep up with her. It's impossible not to be curious.

Not to mention being handsome, she is also beautiful. It took her eight years to become popular. If she hadn't signed with Huayi and had the help of noble people, she might not have become popular in another eight years.

"Excuse me, I'll say hello when I meet someone I know." Ding Xiu saw Xu Jingjiang who had just come out of the dressing room.

He is still the familiar bald man, tall, with stubble, looking a bit ferocious, and extremely introverted when he speaks.

"Brother Jiang." Ding Xiu raised his hand in greeting.

Hearing the sound, Xu Jingjiang trembled and turned around to see "good brother" Ding Xiu walking towards him.

This good brother is knowledgeable and has a lot of knowledge about ancient customs, culture, and languages. He can talk about it in court and brothels.

I also like to ask about my story of traveling to Hong Kong Island and making films.

Occasionally ask the heroine who has the best figure, the prettiest, and the most sense, and if there is a chance to show him something, etc.

"Why are you here?"

From The Legend of Sword and Fairy to The Legend of Sword and Fairy, and now Xiao Yuer and Hua Wuque, they have collaborated in three movies.

Ding Xiu held Xu Jingjiang's hand heavily: "Fate, it's all fate. You must have a good drink when you come back."

"Last time you used my upside-down golden hook. I'll go back..."

"Ahem." Xu Jingjiang interrupted: "Don't talk about art matters here."

He was tired of being asked, so he taught Ding Xiu a few tricks.

That wasn't his intention.

"Yes, yes, let's talk about it later." Ding Xiu said: "What role did you play this time?"

"He is evil, male number three."

"congratulations."

The complete script has been released, and Ding Xiu knows that the character of Evil Tongtian has quite a lot of roles, second only to Xiao Yuer and Hua Wuque.

Evil Tongtian was Xiao Yu'er's apprentice and the little boyfriend of Maid Tie Xinlan. He was tall and mighty, but actually had a simple and kind personality. He was eventually killed when the eunuch Liu Xi attacked the Poison King Valley.

Being able to find Xu Jingjiang to play this role clearly shows that Wang Jin understands his character very well.

A solid performance.

"I'll go take pictures first, and we'll chat later." Fearing that Ding Xiu might surprise him, Xu Jingjiang hurriedly got into the photo studio.

More than half an hour later, it was Ding Xiu's turn to put on makeup. The outfit was very simple, just wearing a white gown and a long hairdo.

Some people have good facial features and look good no matter what they wear, and that's him.

He is famous for his costume appearance in The Seven Nights, Murong Fu, Lotus Lantern, and The Best in the World. The producers had already seen his photos countless times when they decided to cast him.

In order not to overlap with his previous image, he specially chose to wear white clothes this time, and his hairstyle was not fixed with hairpins or hairbands. It just floated in the back, with two dragon whiskers on his forehead, which was very casual and careless.

That is to say, Ding Xiu has a good foundation, and ordinary handsome guys in ancient costumes can't manage this kind of hairstyle.

When they came to the photo studio, Wang Jin and Li Huizhu were there. Ding Xiu clasped his fists and said, "Director Wang and Director Li are here too. I'm sorry. If I had known, I would have come over to say hello first."

"It's okay, let's take pictures first." Li Huizhu said in a gentle tone: "What kind of weapon do you want to use this time? Pick one yourself."

Next to it is the weapon rack, including maces, red tassel guns, eight-sided Han swords, oxtail knives, Xiuchun knives, Tang knives and so on.

Ding Xiu took out a folding fan and said, "Just use this one."

Wang Jin squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that people will say that you copied your predecessors?"

There have been many versions of The Unparalleled Twins before. In the previous version, Hua Wuque, played by Su Youpeng, was dressed in white clothes and a fan, and he had the image of a handsome nobleman.

Ding Xiu is now wearing white clothes and holding a white fan. Once the photo with the makeup is released, he will inevitably be accused of eating leftovers.

"Snapped!"

Ding Xiubai spread out his fan to fan the air and said, "How about I play a part first?"

Wang Jin raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation: "Come on, show me."

Ding Xiu took a step forward, held the fan behind his back, closed it and held it out like a sword, turned over beautifully and opened the fan again...

This is not the first time that he has used a fan in a costume drama. In the previous filming of Tian Long Ba Bu as Murong Fu, there were many fights in which fans were used as weapons.

He had seen Su Youpeng's fan martial arts, which was adapted from swordsmanship. It still followed the path of swordsmanship, taking advantage of its lightness and flexibility.

But the real fan skill is not like this.

Hit, penetrate, point, entangle, lure, lure, and shadow, combined with the application of hands, eyes, body, and steps. Where it should be strong, it is as heavy as a stone, and where it should be light, it is like a dragonfly. It is not only light, but also strong. side.

Ding Xiu's body movements are flexible, his movements are light and fast, like a dancing butterfly.

But the movements of his hands were very fast, and the air exploded every time he took out the fan. Just by listening to the sound, you could tell how hard it was.

If it hit someone, it would probably be similar to a stick falling.

With the last movement, Ding Xiu held the fan in front of his chest, turned around and threw it forward. After spinning half a circle, it turned back again and landed in his hand.

"good!"

Wang Jin couldn't help clapping his hands and asked the martial arts instructor: "What do you think?"

The martial arts instructor smiled helplessly: "With this skill, he can win a championship in the national team. How can I evaluate him?"

Ding Xiu is more famous in the martial arts instruction circle than he is in the entertainment circle.

None of the martial arts instructors who have worked with him are unconvinced.

With just one move of his, he was able to defeat Su Youpeng's ten martial arts skills. They were not on the same level, the gap was very big.

Throwing the fan in his hand, Ding Xiu said: "The fan is too light and has no power when playing. I will use an iron-framed one later. Don't be afraid that I won't be able to use it. Just do it."

"It's up to you." The martial arts instructor nodded.

Fan Kung Fu has been around for many years, and has been used by many martial arts masters. It is an iron fan, and it can break bones with one blow. Otherwise, you will not be able to withstand the beating in a competition.

Just because of the emphasis on aesthetics during filming, and the actors' lack of strength, modern film and television dramas rarely use iron frames, and they all use wooden fans.

Ding Xiu is a professional. If you have this demand, the people behind the scenes will definitely meet it.
