Entertainment 1998

Chapter 158 157, Old Cow Eats Young Grass

"A Fei, why did you move to this small place?"

As soon as Wang Fei opened the door, her agent Chen Jiaying walked in from outside. She patted the snowflakes off her body and said, "It's snowing outside again, and it's snowing quite heavily.

In this snowy weather, I searched three times before I found the place you mentioned. However, the Beijing Film Academy is a really nice place. At least it is very quiet and there are no entertainment paparazzi to disturb us. "

Although on the surface, the relationship between Chen Jiaying and Wang Fei is that of an agent and a celebrity artist, in fact, the two have long been like mother and daughter.

Therefore, while Chen Jiaying was talking on and on, Wang Fei, with the help of her aunt, made her some brown sugar ginger tea. In this cold weather, it was very pleasant to drink a cup of brown sugar ginger tea to warm up the body.

"Thank you!"

Next to the shoe cabinet at the door, Chen Jiaying changed into cotton slippers, took the cup handed to her by Wang Fei, said thank you, and then held the cup and looked around at the layout of the house.

Five minutes later, after strolling around a whole circle and feeling very good, Chen Jiaying returned to the living room. However, when she saw the many entertainment newspapers and magazines on the coffee table, her brows immediately frowned.

"A Fei..."

"Ok?"

"You really like this boy."

Chen Jiaying held a cup in her left hand and pointed at a newspaper on the coffee table with her right hand. Half of the page of the newspaper was filled with Jiang Feng's portrait.

There is a line of big words written below the avatar: [Mainland China’s own idol ~ Jiang Feng]!
"Yes, I really like him!"

If someone else asked, Wang Fei might feel a little embarrassed. She is 8 years older than Jiang Feng and divorced. If she falls in love with him, she will inevitably be teased as an old cow eating young grass. But in front of Chen Jiaying, she is still very brave to express her true thoughts.

"Eh…"

Looking at the only artist under her management, Chen Jiaying sighed slightly and said, "A Fei, you are not young anymore."

"Yes, Sister Ying, I'm not young anymore."

This is how masters fight.

Some things really don't need to be said too bluntly.

Just like now, Chen Jiaying said, you are not young anymore, the subtext is, A Fei, you should take your relationship seriously, stop playing around, wouldn’t it be better to find someone of the same age and marry an honest man?
Wang Fei replied, "Yes, Sister Ying, I'm not young anymore." The subtext of her answer was, life is only a few short decades long, and I'm not young anymore, so why not seize the present time and have fun when I want to, and like young handsome guys if I want to.

"Um…"

The two parties have been working together for such a long time, and Chen Jiaying already knew what kind of person Wang Fei was, so when she saw that she insisted, she didn't try to persuade her too much, but changed the topic and started talking about business.

"A Fei, a few days ago, the senior executives of EMI listened to the English song "Dancing with Your Ghost" you recorded and felt that it was even better than your first English song "The Day You Went Away", and it should be more helpful for you to open up the European and American music market.

But they gave us some advice, suggesting that we record two more English songs, so that we have four songs in total and can release it as an album in the European and American music markets.

Moreover, EMI Music also plans to recommend "Dancing with Your Ghost" to the US Billboard Music Chart for promotion."

Release an English music album...

Wang Fei had never thought about this before. The last time she released the music single "The Day You Went Away" in the European and American markets, she was just having fun with it.

I didn't expect to make a huge profit.

Now that the top management of EMI Music has urged him to do so, should he just go with the flow?

Anyway, Jiang Feng knows a lot, so it shouldn't be a problem to get two more English songs from him.

Wang Fei was thinking secretly when Chen Jiaying spoke again.

"Afei, there are two more things..."

"Sister Ying, you say."

"①, the song "Betrayal" was recorded and was prepared to be included in the next album according to your wishes, but your good friend Yehenala Ying liked this song and asked her sister to call me and ask if we could give up this song so that they could put it in the music album "Sad Romance" to be released soon.

Well, they gave us the same amount of money as we paid for the song..."

"No." Before Chen Jiaying finished her words, Wang Fei decisively refused.

"Why? Aren't you and Yehenara Ying very good friends?" Chen Jiaying asked curiously.

"Because Jiang Feng told me that this song can only be sung by me and cannot be passed on to others, otherwise he will take back his music copyright."

"Oh…"

At this moment, Chen Jiaying's eyes quickly brightened.

"So, he wrote the song 'Sell Out' just for you. It seems like he likes you quite a bit."

After hearing her agent's joke, Wang Fei wanted to explain that she actually stole the song "Betrayal" from his music album, but after thinking about it, she accepted the mess.

Yes, this song was tailor-made for me by him because it completely fits my mood.

"Well..., Ah Fei, now let's talk about the second point.

② According to our contract with EMI, we have to release an album a year. The last album was released in September last year. We started in March, collecting songs, singing song demos, contacting music producers, making music album covers, contacting MV directors, and inviting actors for the MV.

Now, it is March 1999, 3, and the recording of the next music album should be put on the agenda. Recently, I have been contacting various music creators to see who has good songs and we can buy them for the preliminary preparations..."

However, before Chen Jiaying finished her words, the tall Wang Fei came over, put his arm around her shoulders, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Sister Ying, please wait a little while for your work here. I will talk about the preparations for the music album after I come back from Hengdian World Studios."

"What? You are going to Hengdian?" Chen Jiaying asked in surprise.

"Yes, I have planned it a long time ago. It will be there in 5 days." Wang Fei smiled with a red face.

"There are still 5 days left... Why? Why are there integers and decimals?"

But as soon as she said this, Chen Jiaying, as a woman, felt a little regretful.

wipe…

It seems that A Fei is really trapped.

"Are you ready?"

"All right."

"The TV series "The Flying Dagger of Li Xiao" No. 784, 1st shot, 1st time, ready..., go!"

As soon as the script supervisor clapped the cue, Chen Kai, who played Jing Wuming, jumped up, drew his sword with his right hand, and stabbed Wu Jing, who played Ah Fei.

Wu Jing was also tied with a wire. He stepped on it and was quickly lifted up. He swung his sword and started fighting with Chen Kai. The two of them fought until they came to a thatched house. They landed on the ground and stared at each other. Chen Kai said coldly, "Fast Sword Ah Fei, your reputation is well-deserved."

"You're not bad either. You're the first person I've met whose sword skills can keep up with mine." Wu Jing replied. The two of them praised each other and then started to use their big moves. One of them swung a sword, and the demolition master pressed the explosion button. The explosion point hidden under the thatched hut exploded with a "bang", white smoke billowed, and thatch flew everywhere.

……

The crew is filming.

Just like a few days ago, although he did not have his own scenes, Jiang Feng still stood at the shooting site to watch the crew setting up the shooting scene, learning the performance methods of other actors, and also observing the directing techniques of Cui Cheng and Yuan Heping, the directors of the TV series "The Little Flying Dagger".

However, unlike the previous days, today, director Yuan Heping was standing next to Jiang Feng. He explained to Jiang Feng from a close distance the things to pay attention to and the shooting methods when shooting action scenes.

“Jiang Feng, fighting scenes are very eye-catching. They seem simple to shoot, but they are actually very difficult to shoot well.

Now, let's take this scene as an example and I'll tell you some shooting techniques:
First, be sure to use a telephoto lens.

Because the telephoto lens can visually compress the space and shorten the distance between two people, even if they throw an empty punch, the telephoto lens will make it look like the two people are very close and really hit each other in the face.

Of course, the person being punched has to coordinate the timing and rhythm of the punches and perform accordingly.

This method is basically applicable to any scene that requires fighting, and is not limited to fixed shots. As long as the camera is placed in the right position, it can be shot without capturing the point where the fist lands. It can be caught by the head, or out of the frame..."
