Rebirth: I'm filming extra scenes on the set

Chapter 6 Classmate, Yang Mi

"Damn it, Chen Cheng, you slept so late yesterday, but you're still so energetic this morning. If I didn't have to go to work today, I would have slept in."

"Why don't you sleep for half an hour longer and I'll help you finish that part."

"Although I really want to go back to sleep, brother, you are so kind."

After a whole night of bragging, all the workers are still a little sleepy.

It's just that work.

Even if they still want to sleep, they have to start work early in the morning, and they have to move a series of equipment to the set.

Although Chen Cheng also goes to bed late, with the help of the system, Chen Cheng sleeps very well.

Even after only sleeping for four hours, Chen Cheng was still in good spirits.

So Chen Cheng tried his best to help everyone do more work. With everyone working together, the morning work was completed and everyone started to eat breakfast.

But just when he was halfway through eating, a voice rang in Chen Cheng's ear: "Chen Cheng, why are you here?"

Chen Cheng was very familiar with this voice.

When he turned around, he found that it was his classmate Yang Mi.

Yes.

In his previous life, the famous star Yang Mi was Chen Cheng’s classmate, and they were in the same class.

But life changes a lot.

Even though Chen Cheng and Yang Mi were classmates, their development was very different.

"Big star Yang, why are you here too?"

"Didn't I tell you in the group that I accepted the role in Wang Zhaojun? You're such a fool. You didn't even tell us in the group that you accepted the role."

Looking at Chen Cheng, Yang Mi complained.

But Chen Cheng was a little embarrassed: "I am not taking any role, I am just working here."

"Field worker?"

Yang Mi was stunned: "Why are you working here?"

"I have no choice. I can't find a role, so I can only work on the set. It can be considered as completing my summer homework."

He spread his hands.

On the one hand, on-site work is a task arranged by the system.

on the other hand.

Chen Cheng really didn't find a particularly good role.

after all.

Not everyone is like Yang Mi.

Although Chen Cheng and Yang Mi were classmates.

But Yang Mi grew up to be a child star. In 92, Yang Mi already appeared in Stephen Chow's The Legendary Swordsman.

As for what role Yang Mi played in The Legend of Sword and Fairy.

He is the one who rides on Stephen Chow’s shoulders and begs for alms.

So even though Yang Mi is only a sophomore now, she is already a star of some size.

"or……"

Looking at Chen Cheng's clothes, Yang Mi hesitated for a moment, then said, "How about I ask the director for you to see if there is any special offer or something."

"Thanks. I think on-the-spot work is OK."

Although I was a little surprised to see Yang Mi.

But after two lifetimes, this little embarrassment is nothing.

……

"Chen Cheng, was that person your classmate?"

"Yes."

"You look very elegant. Um, are you still studying?"

"It's summer vacation now, so I'll come out to work and earn some pocket money."

"which school?"

"Nortel."

"Why didn't you say you were from the Central Academy of Drama?"

"When I took the college entrance exam, I did want to apply to the Central Academy of Drama, but I feel that the Beijing Film Academy is more suitable for me."

"You're kidding me."

My colleagues didn't believe it.

Chen Cheng curled his lips and decided not to believe it.

"Let's go, let's continue moving bricks."

Yang Mi's appearance was just an episode, which did not affect Chen Cheng at all. He continued to work as a field worker.

Although when I was working on the set, I would occasionally run into Yang Mi on the set.

But Chen Cheng didn't think much of it, and they just nodded to each other every time they met.

Although Yang Mi was surprised that Chen Cheng would come to work on the spot, he was still a classmate after all. After finishing work in the morning, Yang Mi found the director privately: "Director Li, um, I have a classmate with good acting skills, and it seems that we need a special guest this afternoon. How about I ask him to come and try this afternoon?"

"Is your classmate also from Beijing Film Academy?"

"Yes."

"He's from Beijing Film Academy, sure. Where is he now? In Beijing North or somewhere else? Can he come to the set this afternoon?"

"Yes, yes, yes. I'll call him over in a moment."

Being an actor is actually a profession that requires a lot of resources.

Although Yang Mi is not as famous as later generations, she is still famous and she has been in the industry since she was a child.

In addition, I was recommended as a student from Beijing Film Academy, and all I wanted was a small special role.

As a director, I will give some face.

……

"Chen Cheng, where are you? Do you have time to come to the set?"

"what's the situation?"

"Come over here if I tell you to. I won't bully you."

"That's fine."

After receiving Yang Mi's call, although he didn't know what Yang Mi wanted to talk to him about, Chen Cheng still came to the set.

"Director Li, this is my classmate Chen Cheng. Even though he hasn't graduated yet, he has great acting skills, so he will definitely have no problem playing a special guest role."

Seeing Chen Cheng coming, Yang Mi introduced him to Director Li.

But when Director Li saw Chen Cheng, he laughed: "Hahaha, Yang Mi, the person you recommended is him."

"Yes, that's him. Chen Cheng, why don't you say hello to Director Li... Hey... Director Li, you don't recognize Chen Cheng. Oh, by the way, Chen Cheng works in the crew, so it's normal that you recognize him."

But Yang Mi was wrong.

She thought they knew each other, but they were just in the same crew and had bumped into each other occasionally.

But Director Li recognized more than just Chen Cheng.

"Of course I recognize you. Not only that, I also have a deep impression of you, my classmate."

Looking at Chen Cheng, Director Li said, "Little brother, you are from Beijing Film Academy. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"This, this..."

Chen Cheng was a little embarrassed and said, "Director Li, the main reason is that when I applied for the job, I didn't even ask which school I was from."

"Hahaha, you're applying for a job as a field worker, who would ask which school you went to? Even if you graduated from elementary school, we still want you. You're a top student at Beijing Film Academy, and you're the only one here. I've been in this business for more than 10 years, and you're the only one."

Seeing Chen Cheng and Director Li talking from time to time, Yang Mi widened her eyes: "Director Li, you two really know each other."

"Chen Cheng, your classmate recommended you to me. There is a special role this afternoon. Do you want to try it?"

"Hey, Director Li, I still have to talk to Producer Liu and get his approval."

"Okay, if he doesn't let you go, just say I specifically asked you to go."

"Uh... ok."

Director Li left after saying this.

But Yang Mi was a little curious about Chen Cheng: "Chen Cheng, Director Li knew you just now."

"Yes, we are in the same crew."

"No, that's not the case."

"That's how it is."

"I think Director Li has a big impression of you."

"Oh, it's mainly because we, the on-site workers, have to run around the set and move equipment when we have nothing to do. I guess Director Li thought I wasn't lazy and was always working hard, so he remembered me."

"Really?"

"of course."

"Okay, remember to come to the set this afternoon."

"That's not necessarily the case. If the production company doesn't allow it, I can't come. But..."

Looking at Yang Mi, Chen Cheng said, "Thank you."

Although the previous life was very different from Yang Mi.

Although Chen Cheng does not want to be an actor in the future.

But this friendship between classmates made Chen Cheng feel very warm.
