I'm just an actor

Chapter 94
In the hotel, in Gao Xixi's room.

Gao Xixi, Pan Hongye and Xu Rong sat facing each other.

"Me?" Xu Rong was stunned after hearing Gao Xixi's proposal. He opened his mouth and couldn't speak for a long time. After a while, he shook his head and said, "Director, are you kidding me? ?”

Gao Xixi felt a little choked up, got up, walked to the window, and pushed open the window. Pan Hongye was an old smoker, and after a while, he lit three.

When the wind came in, he glanced back at Xu Rong, who was full of astonishment, and said with a smile, "I discussed it with Lao Pan for a long time, and finally I think it's most suitable for you to do it."

"Why am I suitable?" Xu Rong looked at the two with a smile on his face, raised his hand, and slapped the smoke blowing on his face twice, "The problem is that I really don't know how to do it."

Seeing Xu Rong's actions, Pan Hongye put the cigarette in the ashtray and said, "Your experience is relatively legendary. To be honest, in three years, from a migrant worker who dropped out of school to a first-line actor, TV dramas dare not do this. And your performance in the crew every day is relatively weird, which is in line with everyone's imagination of that kind of person."

Xu Rong naturally knew this, but he always felt that Gao Xixi's idea was too bad, so he waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, I really can't do it, director and producer, or let's change people, and the producer will do it for you." ?”

"I'll add two scenes for you." Gao Xixi sat back and dangled her two fingers in mid-air, "Don't worry about the bed scene, I'll talk to Chen. You choose, anyone can."

After hearing this, Pan Hongye and Xu Rong slowly turned their heads dumbfounded, looking at the small eyes on Gao Xixi's fat face: "Old Gao?"

"director?"

Xu Rong actually refused in his heart. He has no experience in filming sex scenes, and in all honesty, he is really not interested in it, but he has heard about Gao Xixi's plan to film the Three Kingdoms. It is said that all the screenwriters have contacted six indivual.

Naturally, Xu Rong didn't go for the sex scene with Chen, he pondered for a while, and said, "I have to think about it."

"Still thinking about it? My teacher Xu, we can't even shoot this." Gao Xixi smiled wryly, stretched out another finger, and said with extreme pain, "Three scenes, no more. If there are more, I will fight my old face. It is impossible for people to agree."

"Oh, that's fine, it's all for the sake of the show, and you have bothered the director." Xu Rong sighed, raised his head reluctantly, stared straight at Gao Xixi and said, "Director, what do you think, if I’m about to shoot Three Kingdoms, should I think about Cao Cao more in the future?”

The smile that just appeared on Gao Xixi's face was choked after hearing the second half of Xu Rong's sentence, but after patting his thigh, he forced the smile to continue, and said with emotion: "Xiao Xu Ah, your idea is really avant-garde, but don't worry, I will try my best to help you fight for it."

Xu Rong nodded. In fact, he also understood that even if Gao Xixi made a remake of Three Kingdoms, he would never be able to play Cao Cao. Even if the age factor and Gao Xixi's subjective intentions were discarded, the management would not dare, and Jin Fangfang would not dare.

After all, Zhuyu is the first, and few first-line actors dare to take the role of Cao Cao. For more than ten years, the image of Cao Cao in the audience's mind is Bao Guoan. Later performers, no matter how they play, will rush to imitate, maybe not Brilliant, but at least not scolded.

But according to his temperament, if he plays Cao Cao, he will definitely not copy it. Under the inherent impression, no matter whether he plays well or not, he will be scolded by most people, because he is not like Bao Guoan.

This is also a major pain point in classic remakes. For example, Journey to the West, if the actor is really made up according to the image described by Wu Chengen, he will definitely be scolded, because it does not match the classic. As for the original work, what is it?
Xu Rong had also worked with Bao Guoan before. In "Crossing the Guandong", the other party played Xian'er's father. When I saw him playing the old farmer, I could only sigh that Mr. Bao's Cao Cao was really classic.

The three discussed each other for nearly an hour before going back to their rooms to prepare.

Early the next morning, when the actors arrived at the set, they all fell silent after seeing the weird decorations on the set, which indirectly verified yesterday's guess.

I saw that in the middle of the set, a Fang Bagua table was set up at some point, with incense candles lit and tributes placed on it.

Chen, who was the first to put on makeup, came out of the dressing room, and habitually searched for familiar figures, but only scanned left and right, but didn't see Xu Rong, so she gave up, the set was too quiet, and she didn't dare to speak out Make noise or move around indiscriminately.

At eight o'clock, accompanied by the producer and director of production, Gao Xixi picked up the trumpet with a solemn expression, and shouted: "Play the music."

After a burst of music like Hong Zhong Dalu, the Taoist priest with black hair and white beard, who looked like a baby and had a long figure, was dressed in a Taoist robe with gold silk and silver thread, and he stepped into the arena without any haste. .

In his left hand, the Taoist held a lion seal with runes engraved on it, and in his right hand, he held an exorcism stick covered with yellow talismans, with a calm expression on his face.

Yu Hewei didn't sleep well last night, his eyes were bloodshot, but when he got to the set and saw the gossip table and the decorations on it, he heaved a sigh of relief. The big stone under his heart finally fell to the ground. Invite the "superior" to come.

But as the "expert" entered the arena, after staring at the Taoist carefully for a while, the expression on his face became strange.

The Taoist turned out to be Xu Rong.

But before he could doubt it, Xu Rong, who entered the arena, stood still in front of the gossip stage, and suddenly chanted something, with a solemn expression and cadence.

Then I saw Xu Rong holding up the seal with one hand, and waving the ghost stick in his hand with the other, walking around the studio in small steps.

Yu Hewei pricked up his ears and stared carefully. When Xu Rong passed by him, he clearly heard Xu Rong's words in his ears, as if it really was a passage from a certain Taoist scripture.

After Xu Rong turned around like this, he stopped in front of the gossip stage, and shouted loudly: "Play the music, beat the drums, and greet you."

"Boom."

"Boom."

"Boom"

With the sound of nine drums and solemn music, Xu Rong put the seal and wooden stick on the side of the stage, took out a piece of neatly folded yellow paper from the sleeve pocket of his Daoist robe, and unfolded it in a kind of He recited loudly in a very strange tone: "In the year of Weidinghai, last winter Geng Xushuo, disciple Jishou Taisheng Zu went to the main road."

Yu Hewei wanted to laugh at first, but after watching Xu Rong finished reading the Qing Ci, burned the yellow paper, and then the flying ashes flew up on the gossip platform, he couldn't laugh anymore, his face was so serious that he didn't even dare to look directly at the high platform.

Could it be that Xu Rong really knows a little bit?
"Incense."

Xu Rong ignored the increasingly serious expressions of the entire crew, and presided over the ceremony in an orderly manner. Following his singing, director Gao Xixi and producer Pan Hongye offered incense and kowtowed according to his request.

After the two retreated, Xu Rong sang salutes, blessed the gods, and sent the gods off until nine o'clock, when he sang "Respectfully send off the gods" and ended the entire ritual ceremony.

The production director hurried over with the red envelope and stuffed it into Xu Rong's hand.

"Producer Zhao, no need, I'm also in the team, really no need."

Producer Zhao, however, did not depend on life and death, and said with a serious face: "One size is worth one size. Teacher Xu, you are our actor, but you can't save the money for the ceremony."

Gao Xixi also persuaded Xu Rong to accept with a serious face.

Chen and Hu Ke stared blankly at Xu Rong. If he solemnly presided over a ceremony just now and read the scriptures for nearly half an hour, they only believed [-]% of the words, but now they believed [-]% of them. Jiucheng, judging by the faces of the director and producer, it can't be fake, right?

Xu Rong, really?
Especially after a day of smooth filming, the whole team, even Gao Xixi and Pan Hongye who planned the whole ceremony, looked at Xu Rong strangely.

Because they only asked Xu Rong to prepare some words, but they didn't expect Xu Rong to read for nearly an hour. This is not like a newcomer.

Especially considering his experience, after all, Xu Rong is only 20 years old, and he was born in a poor family, yet he has become popular as he is now. This thinking is really not good.

On the second day after finishing the ceremony, Chen finally couldn't hold back anymore. During the filming break, she approached and asked in a low voice, "Xu Rong, do you know how to watch?"

The corners of Xu Rong's mouth curled up slightly, but he didn't answer.

Laugh without saying a word.

This is learned from Uncle Li back then. It is said that Uncle Li can also order, but every time someone asks this question, he always has such an expression.

And Xu Xing had already asked him this question last night. The main reason was that the ritual battle was more scary, with music played throughout the process, all kinds of etiquette were decent, and most importantly, the half-hour-long congratulatory speech.

But Xu Rongyue was like this, Chen Yue guessed that he would, otherwise she wouldn't know why the cloud of ashes floated into the sky yesterday.

Xu Rong knew a little bit, and gradually, it became the consensus of the entire crew.

Even Hu Ke sneaked up on him at night to see the marriage.

Regarding Hu Ke's request, he smiled and sent her out the door.

After closing the door, Xu Rong said in his heart that I would look at a hammer, but it was a passage of Taoism that was repeated countless times with different accents. As for the whirling paper ash, it was simply a vortex formed by three blowers.

What is used is still the psychological function of people.

This was the idea of ​​Gao Xixi and Pan Hongye. They did know a few "skilled people", but the sky was high and the road was far away, and they couldn't invite them for a while.

The reason why Xu Rong was chosen is because he feels abnormal all day long. Moreover, Xu Rong's words are memorized well, otherwise he would not be able to read the rituals, and the people who read them would probably not. letter.

As for the three consecutive accidents that happened that day, in Gao Xixi's view, it was quite normal. However, the camera fell off the high platform because he wanted to shoot a different effect so much that he didn't think carefully. As for the subsequent falling into the water, The fire was probably caused by the psychological pressure of the staff, and what he had to do was to remove the psychological pressure of the whole group through a ceremony.

"Director, is this what you said, the bed scene?" Xu Rong was dumbfounded after listening to Gao Xixi's speech, completely speechless, there's no need to tell Chen about this, she can have a fart opinion.

Gao Xixi's so-called bed scene is that after Tian Peizhi left again, Wei Duanben fell ill and lay on the bed with a high fever, and then gave him a few close-ups.

I have to go into detail, the added scene is indeed a sex scene, but this sex scene, it is only him.

Gao Xixi looked at him strangely, and asked: "What's the matter, Xiao Xu, isn't it a sex scene? Are you thinking wrong?"

"What's the matter?" Xu Rong smiled awkwardly, looking at Gao Xixi's suspicious face, he couldn't go any further, "That's what I thought at first."

It's strange to say that the filming went by day by day. Since Xu Rong finished a ritual, in the remaining nearly two months of filming time, there were no more casualties.

At the finale banquet, it was lively, but the atmosphere was not quite right.

In the end, when Yu Hewei was toasting, he asked everyone's doubts: "Mr. Xu, are you really good at it?"

Xu Rong was about to laugh without saying a word, but Gao Xixi laughed twice, and said: "Let me tell you the truth, the ritual ceremony at that time was actually planned by the three of us. What could it be? The main reason is that Xiao Xu himself Like, you see on the set, he's always babbling."

As he talked, he felt something different, his voice gradually lowered, he slowly turned his neck, held the wine glass, looked at Xu Rong who was sitting by his hand, and asked softly: "Xiao Xu, what are you talking about?" You can't, can you?"

Xu Rong smiled without saying a word.

Whether Xu Rong will or not, no one knows, because he has never admitted or denied it, but after the excitement, the embarrassment is extremely embarrassing.

Because he finished drinking the killing wine, when he was packing his things and preparing to return to Beijing, he was blocked by Chen Ge.

As soon as Chen entered the door, he looked at Xu Xing who was helping Xu Rong pack his things, and said, "Xu Xing, I have something to say to your brother, please go outside and wait for a while."

Xu Xing squatted on the ground, just folded a piece of clothing and put it in the suitcase, he was dumbfounded at first, then turned to look at Xu Rong, asking for his opinion.

Xu Rong looked at Chen, saw that she didn't look like she was drunk, hesitated for a while, and then nodded at Xu Xing.

"What's the matter, sister, why are you still closing the door?" Looking at Chen who closed the door, Xu Rong forced a laugh, pretended to pull the charging cable, moved two steps to the side indiscriminately, stood behind the sofa, and planned if Chen He jumped up hard, and he followed her around the sofa in circles.

Xu Xing might be lying on his stomach at the door.

Seeing his posture of being fearful like a snake and a scorpion, Chen saw his admiration on his face becoming more and more undisguised, leaning against the entrance, and said seriously: "Xu Rong, if, I mean if, someday you broke up with your girlfriend, I will If you’re not in love, don’t forget to send me a message.”

Xu Rong originally wanted her to dispel these unrealistic fantasies, but looking at her moist eyes and blushing face, he didn't know whether she was fainted from drinking just now, or was drunk by the words. In the end, he tapped Nodded: "Okay, pay attention to safety on the road."

He didn't say anything else, since there was nothing to say, and what should be said has already been said. There are not many truths in this world, and a woman's blush is enough to beat a long paragraph of dialogue.

Seeing that he agreed, Chen stopped pestering him, waved his hand at him, and said, "Let's go, you too."
