Actor training manual

Xiao Yanzhi dreamed a lot of inexplicable random dreams that night, and many people in the past dangled in front of his eyes like a revolving lantern, until he saw Yue Shanlin's indifferent and handsome face, he woke up from the dream directly.

Before dawn, there were sounds of walking in the corridor from time to time, and occasionally someone coughed, and the voice was deliberately kept low.

Xiao Yanzhi got up and put on his clothes, and picked up the cigarette case on the table casually. Distraught, he decided to go out to get some air.

Shen Haohao on the opposite bed was sleeping soundly wrapped in a thick quilt. He bent down in front of Shen Haohao and reached out to touch Shen Haohao's forehead. Fortunately, he didn't have a fever.

Xiao Yanzhi always thought that the day Shen Haohao committed suicide by jumping into the sea was not a good day. The winter rain just fell the night before, and the next day there was a strong wind. Xiao Yanzhi stepped on the beach and picked it up.

Shen Haohao wished for death but failed, but because of soaking in cold water for too long, he fell ill all over, especially afraid of freezing.

Once exposed to the cold, he would either have a high fever for three or four days, or his whole body would be sore and unable to move. Even during the dog days, Shen Haohao would wrap himself in long-sleeved clothes and avoid going to places with full air conditioning. His body would be completely broken. .

Xiao Yanzhi walked out of the room lightly, leaning against the iron railing in the corridor and lit a cigarette.

Ji Lan came up from the stairs, wearing a navy blue gown and mandarin jacket, a melon cap on his head, a thick and long fake braid on his back, and old-age makeup on his face. He rushed to the set to catch the early scene. In other words, they were going to join the group today, so they wrote down the precautions on a note, and prepared to put it in Xiao Yan's room, waiting for them to wake up.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he went up the stairs, he saw Xiao Yanzhi smoking a cigarette leaning on the railing.

"Brother Xiao, you got up so early?" Ji Lan stepped forward with a smile.

Xiao Yanzhi nodded towards him, and looked at Ji Lan's attire: "Qing palace drama?"

"Director Chen Yu is filming a play about the last emperor. No, luckily, he got the role of an old eunuch. There are two words."

Ji Lan was a little proud when talking about this, "Mr. Liu Xuelin will play the eunuch, and I will follow behind him."

After Ji Lan said this, she realized that the person opposite was Xiao Yanzhi, a big star who had been the leading role in film and television dramas for countless times, yet she actually treated him as someone else and bragged in front of him!

"Congratulations." Xiao Yanzhi thought nothing of it. This Ji Lan was still the local snake he met when he was filming in Hengdian. Although he could only show his face for a few seconds in the film, most of the time he didn't even have a line, but In the crew, but very popular.

Able to act in front of the camera and do chores behind the camera, Ji Lan is a famous person among many assistant directors.

Back then, Xiao Yanzhi certainly didn't have much in-depth communication with this kind of people, but fate is sometimes so interesting.

Xiao Yanzhi was obsessed with mahjong for a while, but he couldn't get the cards together on the set. I don't know where the executive producer found Ji Lan. After a few rounds of mahjong, Ji Lan has already become brothers with other people.

Xiao Yanzhi has never been easy to get along with, Ji Lan just shamelessly followed behind him and called him brother, after a few visits, he also became familiar with Ji Lan, the two left each other's number, but never called.until……

"Speaking of which, I haven't thanked you enough yet." Xiao Yanzhi pinched his cigarette butt, looked at Ji Lan, "It's contacting the crew and helping me find a place to live."

"Hey, why are you being polite to me! Brother Xiao can think of me when he is in trouble, that is my blessing."

Ji Lan waved her hand and handed him the note in her hand, "Brother Xiao, here are a few things I have summarized about the field work, I hope I can help you."

Xiao Yanzhi pinched the note with mixed feelings in his heart.Having been in the entertainment circle for many years, he has long been accustomed to the social mode of those circles who are stalking and hiding their swords while smiling, but he never thought that when he was at his worst, there would still be people willing to give him a hand.

At 07:30 in the morning, Xiao Yanzhi and Shen Haohao took the bus to the outside of the film and television city, and the bus of the crew of "King of Han" was already waiting at the door.

A coordinator stood at the door of the car, holding the list of cast and crew in his hand, checking them one by one.

In order to avoid trouble, Xiao Yanzhi used the pseudonym Xiao Yan on the work card. After checking the list with the coordinator, the two got into the car smoothly.

Xiao Yanzhi looked around the inside of the car and heaved a sigh of relief. Without acquaintances, the director and main actors would certainly not take this kind of bus, but other crew members still had to take this bus to enter and leave the scenic spot.

A big director like Shen Ao usually has his own fixed production team. Xiao Yanzhi has worked with Shen Ao before, so of course he knows the staff of Shen Ao's team, but Xiao Yanzhi doesn't know anyone in this car.

Has Shen Ao changed teams?Xiao Yanzhi felt a little strange, he still remembered the assistant director who had been by Shen Ao's side all the time, that was his old partner who had been with Shen Ao for more than ten years, but he hadn't seen him on the coordinating staff list just now The name of the assistant director.

When the coordinator saw that everyone was almost there, he motioned for the driver to drive.As soon as the bus turned around, I heard someone slapping on the door.

When someone came up, Xiao Yanzhi recognized it immediately, it was an inconspicuous Wu Zhi in Shen Ao's team, and he stood up like a dog.

"Brother Wang, didn't you drive by yourself today?" The coordinator gave up his seat and motioned for Wu Zhi, who had just gotten into the car, to sit over.

Director Wang sat down unceremoniously, which happened to be Xiao Yanzhi's front seat.Worried about being recognized, Xiao Yanzhi put the hood of the down jacket on his head, and tucked himself into the clothes.

"Last night, I drank too much with Director Shen. I was too tired to drive, so I happened to sit and chat with you." Wu Zhi, surnamed Wang, complained with a helpless but proud face.

"Brother Wang's hard work is worth it, but not everyone can go to Director Shen's drinking table!" The coordinator flattered him.

"Hey, it's all for work. Director Shen will treat you tomorrow. Come with me and get to know more people." Wang Wuzhi was happy to be photographed, and made a wish with high spirits.

"Success, you can order directly if you have something to do!" The coordinator responded pleasantly.

The car slowly enters the outer city of Qinwang Palace. The buildings outside the window have obvious Qin and Han styles. The vendors on both sides of the street are also wearing Hanfu. Occasionally, one or two tour groups pass by with flags, leaving people with an illusion of time and space. .

"Director Shen hasn't filmed for two years, so he didn't expect to use a new team for the filming of "The King of Han" this time." The coordinator wentssip curiously, "I'm afraid it will take some time to adjust."

"Who says it's not!" Director Wang secretly looked around, leaned in front of the coordinator, and said in a low voice, "Director Shen offended the powerful two years ago, worried about the other party's revenge, and dared not take the show for two years. The news in this circle Almost all are transparent, and when someone in the team heard the wind, the tree fell and the monkeys dispersed.”

"Ah? There's still this matter, then there will be nothing wrong with our play!" the coordinator worried.

"Don't worry, Director Shen is timid. If something really happened, he would probably be hiding abroad, how could he go to Hengdian to suffer." Wang Wu pointed back, "I just gossip with you like this, Don't talk about it outside."

The coordinator quickly agreed, and Xiao Yanzhi, who was sitting behind them, looked out the window with deep eyes.

Two years ago, he was thrown into trouble by Shen Ao, ridiculed by the whole network, and even ended up in a tragic situation of being hidden by the company. Unexpectedly, Shen Ao himself could not clear up the lawsuit.

But then again, why did Shen Ao, who had a good relationship with me during filming, suddenly attack him online?

Is there any relationship between him being ridiculed by Shen Ao on Weibo and Shen Ao offending the powerful?

With a stomach full of doubts, the bus slowly stopped at the entrance of the main hall, and the people on the bus got off one after another. Xiao Yanzhi put away his thoughts and got off the bus with the flow of people.

The track for the moving camera is being laid in the main hall, it is a mess, the workers hired by the production crew come in and out to transport equipment inside, among the busy people, there is no shadow of the leading actor and director.

Although Shen Haohao is a new director, he has no working experience except that he wrote a notebook and handed it to his mentor when he just graduated. When he joined the film crew for the first time, he looked around curiously, looking stunned.Xiao Yanzhi patted his back, motioning him to straighten his back.

"You have to study hard when you join the group. Although the chief director can't handle all the drama work, he still needs to have the ability to control the overall situation. And it's still a big production, with sufficient personnel." Xiao Yanzhi posted it in Shen Haohao's ears. Bian whispered, "It would be great if we can recruit all the main staff and leading actors for our small crew. You should study hard and you will be the leader of the crew by then."

"Brother Xiao, I'll listen to you!" Shen Haohao scratched his head and smiled naively, a pair of small dimples looming, his big eyes blinking, unconsciously acting cute.

"Uh..." Xiao Yanzhi sighed, Shen Haohao was a little naturally dumb sometimes, he was a little worried about whether Shen Haohao would be able to control the situation after the filming started in the future.

The two took their work badges and went to find the production director.The production director is a middle-aged man in his 40s. He has always acted swiftly and vigorously. He is well-known in the industry for being strict. Xiao Yanzhi naturally knows him.

The production director held up Xiao Yanzhi's work card in front of his eyes, and checked with Xiao Yanzhi himself, a gleam of understanding shone through his shrewd eyes.

Without saying anything, he returned the work card to Xiao Yanzhi, and Xiao Yanzhi knew in his heart that he had recognized him.

"Since the two of you are novices, I won't assign you any difficult jobs. You two only need to be responsible for the logistics of the crew. I'll arrange people for the actors."

The producer director actually said this to Xiao Yanzhi, who cast him a grateful look.

Although he knew that he would have to meet those people sooner or later, if he had to face them at this time, he would rather go straight back to his hometown to fish.

However, the reality is often so ironic, before Xiao Yanzhi had time to leave, Shen Ao's voice came from behind.

"Old Chen, let me introduce you to Mr. Yue Shanlin, the investor of our film." Shen Ao happily introduced to the director of production.

Seeing that there were still two unimportant people facing him with their backs, he couldn't help but frowned, and acted like a chief director: "You two hurry up and go to work, don't just hang around here."

When Xiao Yanzhi heard Yue Shanlin's name, his heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously lowered his head to escape, but a familiar voice sounded from behind.

"They are all crew members, so let's introduce them together. Xiaoyan will rely on everyone to take care of him in the future." Yue Shanlin said in a deep magnetic voice.

"What is Mr. Yue talking about? Don't worry, we will take good care of Yang Yan." Shen Ao's tone was flattering, and he turned to shout at the two of them impatiently, "Why don't you come over to say hello to Mr. Yue? People, why are you so rude, you are so ignorant!"

Shen Haohao was startled by the yelling, and hastily turned around. At this point, Xiao Yanzhi was already on the verge of riding a tiger, and he didn't want to leave or stay.The production director gave him a helpless and sympathetic look, which he accepted frankly.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yanzhi turned his head. Yue Shanlin was wearing an expensive woolen coat and a camel-colored scarf, standing tall and straight in the Qin Palace, as if he was the master of the palace, solemn and mighty.

The four eyes met, and the noisy sounds around them faded away.

Xiao Yanzhi tried his best to control the expression on his face, his heart was a little panicked and at a loss, his heart suddenly beat fast, like a candidate standing in front of the list when the monthly exam is announced, feeling inexplicably uneasy.Yue Shanlin still had that facial expression, calm and calm.

That's right, but just seeing a pet you once raised, how much reaction can you have?

Xiao Yanzhi, what are you still looking forward to?

Xiao Yanzhi's heart suddenly felt sore, he tried his best to suppress the huge sense of loss in his heart, and gradually calmed down.

On the contrary, Shen Ao kept blinking at Xiao Yanzhi, his expression changed from doubt to frown to surprise, he stretched out his finger and pointed at Xiao Yanzhi, his voice changed in surprise.

"You, you are Xiao Yanzhi?!"

Some old acquaintances always seem a little embarrassed when they meet again.
