This actor needs more money

The role played by Liu Yifei is Ding Sitian. Ding Xiu did not completely fool her before, but she is actually quite suitable for this role.

No, once the clothes are put on, the feeling is there.

No matter her age or appearance, she matches her appearance in the film. Even before she starts acting, the audience has a sense of empathy when they see her.

Sometimes that's the case, good acting is not as good as looks.

"You're pretty good too. Are you feeling better?" After praising him, Ding Xiu became concerned about Liu Yifei's condition.

The adaptation time to high fever is not that fast, and some people can’t get over it for several days.

Seeing that Liu Yifei's face was a little pale, he was a little worried about his health.

"I'm fine. In fact, this was all on purpose." Liu Yifei forced a smile and said, "Think about it, Ding Sitian and the others came here for the first time, so it's normal to be a little high, right?"

"Really?" Ding Xiu didn't believe it.

Liu Yifei nodded: "Of course it's true. I know I have high reflexes, so I didn't come early in order to better fit the role. Otherwise, I would have been able to adapt if I had arrived a few days earlier, and there would be no need to arrive with everyone."

Ding Xiu was surprised and a little impressed. He didn't expect Liu Yifei to think of this level.

When many people see Liu Yifei, they think she is just a flower vase. In fact, only those who have worked with her know that she is very hardworking, a total go-getter, and there is no ambiguity in riding a horse or practicing martial arts.

It's just that it was several years ago since the last time the two of them collaborated. In Ding Xiu's impression, Liu Yifei was still that underage child.

"You should treat each other with admiration after three days of separation, that's fine with you."

Liu Yifei was a little embarrassed to be praised by Ding Xiu like this. She could tell that Ding Xiu was telling the truth.

"That's right, I will grow up too. Let's wait until we start filming and let you see my strength."

"OK."

The two of them were chatting here, and it didn’t take long for the crew to set up the scene.

Today's scene is very simple. A group of educated youths went to the countryside and encountered a mysterious statue. Fearless, they destroyed the statue. Unexpectedly, there was a hole under the statue, and many man-eating insects flew out. Helplessly, everyone ran towards the cave...

Most of the scenes in this scene are outdoor scenes, which are purely natural. The only things that need to be set up are caves and stone statues. The stone statues are foam statues that have been made before. It is very simple, just put them there.

What was a little more troublesome was the cave, but fortunately it was not a problem for the crew.

Set up a shed, change the shape, and the outline will appear in a short time.

On the first day, there were not too many scenes needed, and the crew was not in a hurry. Everything was busy in an orderly manner.

"Brother Xiu, I'm sorry, your performance may have to be late today. There is still a truck of machinery that has not been delivered here and it is stuck on the road."

Just when Ding Xiu thought it was almost time for him to go on stage, an assistant director came over sweating profusely and told him that the train was stuck halfway, which made his heart race.

"Urge them to hurry up. Let's take pictures of Lao Huang and Sister Xiao Qing first."

The crew will be filming here for more than a month. Ding Xiu has read the announcements for the first few days and knows exactly what scenes will be filmed every day.

Since he can't take pictures for the time being, he can only take pictures of Liu Xiaoqing and Huang Bo.

"Okay Brother Xiu, I'll make the arrangements right now. You go sit in the car first, and I'll notify you when the truck arrives."

The assistant director thoughtfully guided Ding Xiu to the RV.

This is a big shot, so nothing can happen to him. He is also the investor and producer of the crew, and he is more powerful than the director. How can he be exposed in the sun?

If you have a slight cold, it will delay things a lot.

Well, everything is for the crew, the assistant director comforted himself.

Ding Xiu waved his hand: "No, I'll just take a look at the scene, you guys are busy with your business."

That is to say, the staff of the production team think that he is valuable. When it comes to physical fitness, he can beat them.

Today, he might not get his turn during the whole day. Ding Xiu returned to the dressing room, took off his clothes, put on a leather jacket, and started walking around the scene. He also put a handful of peanuts in his pocket and ate a few from time to time. .

Seeing how leisurely he was, Gao Yuanyuan, who was also idle, said, "If you have time, let's drive together. It's so fun to drive here, and you don't have to worry about the steering wheel."

There are no roads on the prairie, only an endless horizon. Driving here has a unique flavor.

Ding Xiu nodded: "Okay, but I would rather ride a horse. How about you drive?"

He hasn't ridden a horse for several years, and he doesn't enjoy it to the fullest. The most he can do is walk around the horse farm for a few times, but that kind of occasion is completely different from the comfort here.

Horseback riding still has to be grassland.

"I'll go find the car right now, and you go find the horse. See you later."

"see you later."

There were many cars on the crew, and Gao Yuanyuan easily borrowed an off-road vehicle. It had a black appearance, wide tires, and a spacious front face. When she stepped on the accelerator, it roared like a roaring little beast.

Stepping on the accelerator, Gao Yuanyuan rushed towards a slope, shouting.

On the other side, it took Ding Xiu some time to find the horse on the grassland. There was no need to borrow it. He directly gave a large sum of cash to buy the horse.

"Sir, this horse is a bit strong. Let me take you for a while first."

After taking the money, the enthusiastic herdsman was afraid that Ding Xiu would fall, so he kindly offered to guide him for a while.

He thought Ding Xiu was here for tourism. He had seen many people like this. Who wouldn't want to ride a horse when he came to the grassland.

This kind of horse riding and horse riding at home are completely different concepts.

What is pulled is not the braid, but the reins.

In fact, when he proposed to take Ding Xiu for a ride, the herdsman uncle was a little cautious. He thought that if Ding Xiu got over the heat in three minutes and no longer wanted to ride, he could buy the horse back at a low price.

"Thank you, no need."

After thanking him, Ding Xiu took the whip, jumped onto the horse neatly, clamped his legs lightly, grabbed the reins with one hand, whipped the horse's butt with the whip in the other, and drank softly in his mouth.

"drive!"

Horse hooves were galloping, the howling wind blew by Ding Xiu's ears, and in the distance was Gao Yuanyuan playing in a car, and a bright sun.

"It's great, I haven't ridden like this for a long time."

It’s really comfortable to ride a horse here, and all the worries are gone.

Compared to when he had to carry a knife and be nervous when he passed by here, now he just wants to sing a song.

"Brother, your worries are unnecessary. You don't want to know who Brother Xiu is. Brother Xiu can do anything with swords, guns, sticks, playing the flute and singing, let alone riding a horse. He has a certificate."

The staff proudly said to the herdsman uncle.

Ding Xiu has a riding certificate and is a registered rider. This matter is not a secret. Many people know it, and he has not deliberately hidden it.

Just look at the costume dramas he has filmed, and you will know that all the horse riding scenes are performed by himself, without any substitutes.

"No wonder, it turns out he has practiced before." The herdsman squinted his eyes, looked at Ding Xiu's back, and recalled his mount action just now: "But it doesn't look like he has practiced for a few days."

In this part of the world, knowing how to ride a horse is not a big deal. Many six- and seven-year-old children can run on a horse, but it is not easy to move skillfully. You have to ride regularly and understand the habits of the horse.

Ding Xiu's movement when he mounted his horse was not standard in a competition, but on this grassland, veteran riders are not standard, and they can do whatever they feel comfortable with.

Just like boxing in the ring, the standard movements are for exhibition matches, but the real actual combat is all about boxing.

"Did he grow up on the grassland?" The herdsman asked curiously, watching from a distance that Ding Xiu was still playing with flowers, running sideways for a while, and huddled in the horse's belly for a while.

There is something about this young man.

"No, Brother Xiu's family is in the mountains." The staff explained.

The uncle was confused: "The horseback riding in the mountains is so good. Where is the mountain?"

“I don’t know the specific place, I just know it’s the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.”

Uncle: "..."

If Ding Xiu was born in the plains, he would still be able to accept being a good horseman. In remote mountain villages, transportation was not convenient in the early years. It was normal to go to school and go to the county seat by horseback.

But what the hell is a plateau?

This is too much.

"Do you also ride horses on the plateau?"

"I don't know that."

The staff shook their heads.

Regarding Ding Xiu's past, there are not many reports on the Internet. Most people only know that he is a child who came from the mountains, but they don't know which mountain specifically.

As for why a mountain boy can ride horses, archery, and martial arts, these are all mysteries. I can only imagine that he has a powerful master.

And this is not a very important thing. As an actor, as long as he has works and does not break the law, it doesn’t matter who he learned the skills from.

Everyone only looks at the results.

…

"Alas!"

"Would you like to come up and feel it?"

Ahead, Ding Xiu had already caught up with Gao Yuanyuan, keeping pace with the off-road vehicle, and said to Gao Yuanyuan in the driver's seat.

Gao Yuanyuan's long hair was blown by the wind from the car window, and she said loudly: "No, I can't stand the bumps."

She didn't know how to ride a horse, but she knew what it felt like to ride a horse. She didn't think she had ever thought about unlocking this skill before, but she just couldn't learn it.

My butt is so bumpy that I can't even sit on the bench at the end of the day.

My thighs hurt from the grind.

Where can I feel comfortable riding Ding Xiu?

"Brother Xiu, wait for me."

Behind Ding Xiu, Liu Yifei came galloping on a black horse, waving a whip in his hand, and quickly caught up.

"Brother Xiu, why don't you call me when you are riding a horse? You have forgotten that you taught me how to ride a horse. Let's all have fun together."

Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. She didn't expect that the young man today would be so courageous and could catch up with him on horseback.

But it should not be said that Liu Yifei is really good. He can ride a horse at a young age, which is better than many actresses. He seems to be quite skilled, which shows that he didn't put in any hard work.

"Sister Yuanyuan, do you want to come down and ride for a while?" Liu Yifei said with a smile, "It's very comfortable."

The little girl wanted to lie to herself, the corner of Gao Yuanyuan's mouth twitched.

The novice who has just learned it cannot grasp the intensity and rhythm of the ups and downs. She only feels pain and no comfort. She pretends that she has never tried it.

"No, I'm quite comfortable driving."

"Really, then Brother Xiu and I will ride horses together." Liu Yifei blinked his big eyes and said, "Brother Xiu taught me my riding skills. He taught me step by step at first, and I became good at it in a few days. This time If you happen to have time, let him teach you."

Listening to Liu Yifei's words, Ding Xiu's face turned dark. This girl must have done it on purpose.

I'm done, I'm so afraid I won't be able to go back.

He glanced at Gao Yuanyuan secretly and saw her face was calm and she smiled slightly: "No, my riding skills are actually pretty good. Brother Xiu knows, right, Brother Xiu."

As he spoke, he didn't forget to imitate Liu Yifei and blinked his eyes, raising the corners of his mouth in a small arc.

Everyone understands this expression.

Ding Xiu quickly turned his head to look ahead and smiled: "Yes, it's quite impressive."

What's wrong with these two people? What kind of riddle are they playing? Liu Yifei was confused. She didn't know what it meant, but she felt a little uncomfortable when she saw that the two of them suddenly understood each other, as if she had lost hundreds of dollars.

"Let us be companions in the world of mortals"

"Live a life of ease and ease"

"Horse galloping"

"Share the prosperity of the world"

Before she could think clearly, Gao Yuanyuan in the car played the theme song of Princess My Fair Princess at the highest volume.

Even Ding Xiu sang along.

Looking at the two people running neck and neck, she didn't know why, but she felt a little envious.

…

After riding for more than two hours, when Ding Xiu came back, Huang Bo and the others were still filming.

Handing the horse to the staff, he watched quietly.

This was the first time he watched Huang Bo act up close. His acting was very natural and his expressions were well-predicted. It didn't look like he was acting. It was really hard for most people to take on his roles.

Liu Xiaoqing, who plays the opposite role together, is an experienced actor. He has been filming for decades. He was famous all over the world at that time and also won the Best Actress Award. He was not pressured by Huang Bo at all and took over the role easily.

It can only be described with four words: ease and ease.

Ding Xiu and Liu Xiaoqing have collaborated in two dramas, both of which were Lotus Lanterns, so they know how powerful this veteran actor is.

To be honest, if it hadn't been for what happened back then, this eldest sister would probably have climbed to the top in the entertainment industry now. To say that she is a domestic entertainment eldest sister is not an exaggeration.

Unfortunately, after that incident, the impact was too great. In recent years, I have only been able to take supporting roles and support others, and I can no longer take leading roles.

"Brother Xiu, the car transporting props will be back soon. Do you think they want to film your scene first?"

The assistant director ran over and whispered.

Ding Xiu took a look and saw that Huang Bo's scenery had been set up and the people and horses were in place. Changing it would take too much time.

"No, let's shoot them first. I'll change my makeup and shoot the second scene later."

Putting aside his single game, Ding Xiu chose to cooperate with Huang Bo and the others first.

An hour later, Huang Bo had just finished filming and before he could even sit down, the director came over to inform him that there was still another scene. When he asked, he found out that it was Ding Xiu who was behind it, and he started to curse.

"Fuck you, Brother Xiu, actually you don't have to give in to me. Really, can't you just let me have a good rest?"

"I also want to ride horses and go for a drive with my girl."

Who wants to work if they can rest? Instead of thanking Ding Xiu, Huang Bo complained a few times, making everyone in the play laugh.

Liu Yifei was very embarrassed to be dsed for no reason, so he could only laugh along with everyone in embarrassment.

Ding Xiu smiled and scolded: "Stop talking nonsense, I may have to work overtime tonight, so hurry up and finish the filming. I'll finish the work early then. I'll treat everyone to a roasted whole lamb."

"good!"

"Thank you Brother Xiu."

"Did everyone hear it? Brother Xiu said that we should finish the filming early and treat everyone to a roasted whole lamb tonight."

"Cheer up, do you want to have some barbecue?"

“The boss is awesome.”

"Brother Xiu, I have a lot of sheep at home. Do you want me to go back and prepare them right away?"

An extra performer volunteered to take over the job of roasting a whole lamb.

The extras here are all locals, and the filming is not for making money, it's just for fun, but I didn't expect that there would be extra income.

With so many people on the crew, there should be a lot of sheep to eat at one time, and a lot of money can be made.

If you have a meal every now and then, you will make a fortune.
