    Chapter 28 What nonsense are you talking about?

    Xi Nian paused, not expecting him to say this. He unconsciously covered the back of Lu Xingzhe's head, then leaned over to put him on the bed, propped him up beside him and said, "Forget it, being a paparazzi is not a good thing. Really?"If I become an investor, won’t I be tortured to death by you?”

    After he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that his tone was a little too intimate. This silent change made Xi Nian feel at a loss for a moment. He lifted the quilt and went to bed, frowned, and this time he only said two words briefly:"sleep."

    Lu Xingzhe opened his eyes lazily and seemed to smile: "Oh."

    If Xi Nian terminates his contract, Shanxing will not be able to do anything to benefit his popularity. If he signs with another company in the future, wouldn't he become a rival?On the way to the film and television city by plane the next day, Xi Nian read the script and found that the investment and scale of this Republic of China drama were not too impressive. The only drawback was the role he played.

    During the Republic of China, wars broke out and warlords separated the country. The male protagonist Ye Qiming, as a son of a wealthy family, did not want to make progress in the early days. He was a bastard who could only pick flowers and walk with birds. Later, when he saw the Japanese occupying the country, he woke up and simply joined the army and created a career.A career.

    Of course, this kind of male lead drama naturally requires a gentle and lovely female supporting role. Before Ye Qiming joined the army, he once had a fiancée. However, because her appearance was too eye-catching, she was snatched away by the local lustful warlord and made her his concubine. Ye Qiming once tried to rescue her., but the people could not fight with the officials, and instead of saving the people, they were beaten severely, and half of their lives were lost. This can be regarded as an influence point for his later rise.

    Well.

    Xi Nian plays the lecherous warlord.

    It's good, he likes to play the villain and doesn't feel aggrieved.

    This trip was not announced to the public, and even the fans did not know that Xi Nian had taken on a new role. When the flight arrived, a staff member took them to the hotel where they were staying. Xi Nian went directly to the crew to report after unloading his luggage.

    At this time, a quarter of the entire drama had passed, and it happened to be filmed that the male protagonist was tied up by the old man in the ancestral hall to enforce family law because he went to the brothel to fool around.

    The actor who plays Ye Qiming is called Zha Pengfei. He has a professional background and his acting skills are acceptable. However, the director always felt that his screams were not realistic enough. He paced back and forth anxiously next to him, wishing he could go up and give guidance in person: "Zha Pengfei, you can'tYou just have to scream, but you have to have a pained look on your face, with bulging veins, and then try another one, and if it still doesn’t work, I’ll tell them to give it a real beating!”

    Zha Pengfei's face was green and white, and he was a little worried about his face: "Director Lin, this scene has been NGed six times. I don't understand why you are dissatisfied. Why don't you come up and give me a demonstration?"

    Director Lin was well-known in the industry for his explosive temper. Hearing this, he walked up to him and asked, "Shall I show you? If I can show you, I will act. How can I still be a director here?"Are you stalling?! Get ready, one more shot!"

    While Xi Nian was standing around watching, Lu Xingzhe left for a while. When he came back, he asked all the news: "This drama will be filmed in two groups, AB and AB. Cha Pengfei will be yours as soon as the filming is over."In this scene, Director Lin has a bad temper. If he doesn’t perform well, he might get scolded, so be careful.”

    After he finished speaking, he hit Xi Nian with his arm and said secretly, "I've never seen you get scolded."

    Xi Nian put one hand in his pocket. Hearing this, he sensed his bad taste and directly stretched out his hand to flick the brim of Lu Xingzhe's hat: "If the director scolds me, I will scold you. No one can run away."

    A lot of assistants get scolded these days.

    Lu Xingzhe's hat almost flew off, and he stretched out his hand to hold it down. Just as he was about to speak, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the director just now looked over, gave Xi Nian a subtle wink, and then stood behind him.

    Only now did Director Lin notice Xi Nian. His mind, which had been stunned by Zha Pengfei just now, finally had some buffer. He looked him up and down, but his tone was still firm: "Are you Xi Nian? Didn't your agent say you can't do it tomorrow?"Are you here?"

    Xi Nian attaches great importance to every drama, so he pretends to be good at the director and smiles. His attitude makes it hard to fault: "I originally planned to come tomorrow, but I wanted to observe and learn from the crew, so I came here in advance..”

    Although his status is not high, he is definitely not reduced to playing a pitiful cannon fodder. The director originally thought that he would be passive and sabotage, but he did not expect that his attitude was acceptable. He felt a little satisfied and glanced at Xi Nian:"I just stood there and watched what I could learn. I went to change clothes and try on makeup with the makeup artist. I didn't have to wait until tomorrow. I filmed the scene where I snatched my concubine today."

    Even a talented director doesn't have a good temper. Xi Nian didn't care when he heard this and turned around to follow the staff to try on clothes while Lu Xingzhe was waiting outside.

    The character played by Xi Nian this time is named He Xiaoyun. In the early days, he was the leader of the bandits who took over the mountains in Fengjian Ao. With his strength, he led his men to rise up during the war. He built a team with years of savings. Later,Gradually developing and growing, he has a deep foundation in Wucheng, and no one dares to offend him. He is a womanizer and a drinker in his life, and he can only be regarded as a reckless person at best.

    At first, the director didn't think much about it. He just felt that Xi Nian's tall figure suited the role very well.

    It had been a while since the filming of this drama started, and the costumes were all ready-made. It didn't take long for Xi Nian to come out of the fitting room. People around him subconsciously looked over and couldn't help but be silent for a moment.

    Some people are born with the protagonist's face, and God will reward them with food, and that's probably him.

    The man was wearing a navy blue military uniform, long riding boots, and a black gun belt wrapped diagonally from his shoulders to his waist. His shoulders were wide and his waist was narrow. His aura alone overwhelmed most people. His facial features under the military cap were handsome and strong. When he raised his eyes,But it was cold and profound, and the epaulettes shone with an icy color, making it look as if strangers should not approach him.

    Xi Nian was putting on white gloves. When he came out, he glanced at Lu Xingzhe out of habit, but saw him looking at her intently.

    Lu Xingzhe: "..."

    Damn, he's so handsome that his legs go weak.

    He unconsciously touched the backpack on his shoulder, but couldn't find the camera. Only then did he realize that he was no longer a paparazzi, and he hadn't brought a camera with him for a long time. It was a pity that he could only take a few pictures with his mobile phone.Take a photo as a souvenir.

    The director looked at Zha Pengfei, who was as thin as a paper man, and then at Xi Nian, who had a straight waist in front of him. He seemed to want to say something, but he didn't say it. He just asked the prop team to bring a horse over:"Do you know how to ride a horse? If not, just call a substitute."

    In that era, cars were a rarity. Although the male cannon fodder He Xiaoyun had no shortage of gold and silver, he still retained the traitorous spirit of the past in his bones. He liked riding horses more than the iron shell of cars, and he accidentally spied on them while riding in the street.After seeing the appearance of the male protagonist's fiancée, she forced her into the house to become his concubine.

    Xi Nian saw a tall maroon horse next to him. He took the reins and tested his temper. Then he turned over neatly and said to the director: "You know a little bit. As long as it's not a long lens, it should be fine."

    The director likes actors who save time and money. It happened that Cha Pengfei's scene had already been filmed, so he immediately used the loudspeaker to direct everyone to clear the scene. The actress who acted with the scene came over to say hello to Xi Nian briefly, and then walked overNext to his station.

    The director said to her: "You and the maid stand here looking at the jewelry. After a while, warlords and soldiers pass by on horseback. Follow the performance and pay attention to your facial expressions and movements. Don't give me any more trouble. It's almost dark, and so is Xi Nian. Be careful."Ma, don’t let anything happen.”

    After saying that, the board clicked: "Start shooting!"

    The Republic of China was a prosperous but short-lived era. The bustling streets of Wucheng rang with the sounds of various hawking calls. The rickshaw drivers dragged their rickshaws and ran tirelessly, with their backs shuttled through the streets and alleys.

    Xi Nian stood on the horse, looking at the position of the female partner without trace, and then rolled up his sleeves. He could see a bit of gangsterism, and his expression became unruly and arrogant. He raised his riding whip and made a short sound in the air.With a loud sound, he led the large group of people to gallop down the street, their cloaks behind them being torn into a tight straight line.

    The extras playing the vendors were running around for cover, and the supporting actress turned around in panic at the right time. She had willow-leaf eyebrows and cherry lips, and she was wearing a well-tailored blue cheongsam that accentuated her slender figure. I felt pity for him.

    So everyone saw the warlord who had just passed by suddenly tighten his reins, then turned around and retreated, the bay-red horse he was riding snoring.

    Xi Nian raised the brim of his hat slightly and stared at her like a wolf, vaguely surprised. After a while, he squinted his eyes with interest: "When did such a beautiful woman come to Wucheng? I didn't know it.".”

    Regardless of appearance, his voice has a gangster vibe.

    The adjutant stepped forward and said, "He Shuai, this girl is the eldest lady of the Yun family. We are famous for being beautiful here. She just doesn't leave the door twice, so you don't know."

    Xi Nian's eyes never left the female partner, and he laughed loudly when he heard this: "I usually don't go out of the main door, and I don't take steps towards the second door. As soon as I come out, I bump into it. Isn't it God's will? It just so happens that my commander-in-chief's mansion is still lacking.A third aunt, this little beauty is pretty good, bring her back to me."

    The supporting actress' acting skills were good, and her face immediately turned pale when she heard this. The maid also came out to block her behind her, and said in horror: "Ye Mansion is the richest man in Wucheng. My young lady has an engagement with Master Qiming, and they will get married soon.", please also ask Marshal He to show your noble hand..."

    Xi Nian refused simply and neatly: "No!"

    Hearing this, the female supporting role pulled the maid away and glared at the man on the horse: "Is there any more royal law?"

    Xi Nian's smile stopped when he heard this. He tied up the riding whip slowly and threw it to the adjutant behind him. He leaned over and stared at her, saying word by word: "In Wucheng, I, He Xiaoyun, am Wang Fa!"

    After he finished speaking, he seemed to have lost his patience. He grabbed the woman's arm and pulled her onto the horse. He laughed out loud in a burst of panic and curses. His handsome face was a little evil, and he looked at the soldiers behind him.Said: "Let's go back and serve the wine! Today I will let my third aunt come in. We brothers will not come back until we are drunk!"

    Seeing them riding away, the director called out at the right time: "Good performance, one shot to the end. I'll add a few close-ups later."

    Xi Nian got off the horse and helped the actress down as well. The actress was inevitably a little embarrassed. While doing her hair, she joked: "I didn't realize that you are quite strong. You scared me when you suddenly pulled her up just now."Jump, this is not in the script."

    Xi Nian also made a joke: "Isn't that how bandits steal brides?"

    After he finished speaking, he walked out of the shooting location. Lu Xingzhe, who had been watching from the side, handed Xi Nian a bottle of water and then carried a bag full of snacks like other assistants: "Are you tired? Let's eat something."

    Xi Nian did not sit on the recliner, but sat directly on the ground with Lu Xingzhe on the roadside. He lowered his head and pulled out the snack bag, opened the package of biscuits, and saw a bag of chocolates inside. He threw it into Lu Xingzhe's arms. He didn't know what he thought of: "What else?"Well, I’ve been more tired than this before.”

    Lu Xingzhe finished the chocolate in a few seconds, his cheeks bulging, and while looking around the movie studio, he unconsciously asked, "How tired are you?"

    Xi Nian said: "The kind that is too tired to endure."

    In the entertainment industry, there are a lot of people who have no ability but are famous, there are a lot of people who are unknown with acting skills, and there are only a handful of people who are both strong and popular. In the final analysis, what they lack is an opportunity.

    In his previous life, Xi Nian was tortured by this opportunity and couldn't sleep at night. He didn't know how to get everything he wanted, and he didn't know who could help him.

    He'd done everything he could, but still couldn't see any hope of getting ahead.

    If Xi Nian didn't recall it deliberately, Xi Nian would have almost forgotten that there was a time when he was down-to-earth, but later he didn't get what he wanted and didn't persist, so he chose another path that he didn't know was right or wrong.

    Lu Xingzhe paused after hearing this, and then smiled: "I don't think I've ever heard you say you're tired."

    There really isn't.

    Not when he was scolded by the entire Internet, not when Su Ge boiled him with boiling water. Xi Nian was careless about everyone and everything, as if he was outside the world.

    Lu Xingzhe moved his position without leaving a trace, trying to be as close as possible to Xi Nian, and even closer. He squinted at the sunset that was gradually dyeing on the horizon, and there was a faint golden light on the tips of his hair. He muttered: "It's normal to be tired., we will be tired if we are human beings, we are not gods, right?"

    After Lu Xingzhe finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Xi Nian, and unconsciously licked the tips of his teeth, as if there was still a trace of the sweetness of chocolate. Then he reached out and patted his shoulder: "Tsk, if you are tired, I will lend it to you for free."Lean on it.”

    Xi Nian didn't move and asked, "Aren't you tired after just leaning on it?"

    Lu Xingzhe silently counted his savings in his mind, and then clasped his fingers to confirm: "You can stop taking photos when you are tired. At worst, I will support you for the rest of my life."

    Xi Nian smiled: "Should I use you to support you?"

    After speaking, he turned his eyes away and said nothing more. Lu Xingzhe just sat quietly with him, occasionally flexing his fingers and looking at the extras, so he didn't feel bored.

    Not long after, a short-haired girl suddenly walked up not far away. She seemed to be a staff member here. She glanced at Xi Nian quietly, hesitated for a long time before she mustered up the courage to walk over, and asked in a low voice with a blushing face: "Xi Nian,I’m your fan, can you sign your autograph for me?”

    Xi Nian came back to his senses slightly after hearing this, looked over, and then took the pen handed over by the girl: "Where to sign?"

    After hearing this, the girl subconsciously touched her pocket and found that there was no photo of Xi Nian. She looked at the short-sleeved T-shirt on her body and was about to say that she signed it on the clothes. Lu Xingzhe pulled out a photo from the bag like a magic trick.Photo: "Sign here."

    Xi Nian took it and took a look and found that it was his own photo. He glanced at him without any trace, then signed his name and handed it to the girl.

    The girl's eyes narrowed with joy, and she whispered: "I used to work here, but I didn't expect you to come to film. Xi Nian, you must work hard, Nian Gao supports you!"

    After saying that, he clenched his fists and made an encouraging gesture, and then left with a look of joy on his face.

    In this antique film and television city, every brick and tile looks like the old Republic of China. The tram bells are ringing constantly, the enthusiastic hawking sounds are coming, the red sunset is spreading wantonly on the horizon, and the lights of Paramount are also on.When I got up, I thought it would be very dark after dark, but it turned out to be a feast of entertainment.

    The director originally planned to make up for the scene, but when there was no daylight, he had to shoot the night scene instead. He came over and gave Xi Nian a business card. He didn't say anything, but just patted him on the shoulder: "Maybe next timeThe role of two men and one man is waiting for you, go back and think about it carefully, you can also perform brilliantly in small roles."

    Seeing the director leaving, Lu Xingzhe raised the brim of his hat slightly and smiled at Xi Nian: "Look, not everyone is as blind as Sun Ming."

    whispering sound.

    Xi Nian stood up and patted the dust on his clothes. He did not say anything, but he highly agreed with the idea that "Sun Ming was blind". He stretched out his hand towards Lu Xingzhe and pulled him up from the ground: "At nightIf it’s going to rain, go back to the hotel.”

    In the next few days, heavy rain and light rain continued, and Xi Nian's filming, which was originally scheduled to be completed in one week, had to be postponed again and again. It took half a month to finally finish the work. At the same time, the fourth season of "Secret Room Decoded" was also released.time, the program team seemed to be very confident about this episode, and they did a lot of publicity and promotion. It became a hot search topic that night, and several guests were invited to the official website.
