Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 623 Xu Yien: I and Emperor Translator are competitors

Chapter 623 Xu Yien: I and Emperor Translator are competitors

After the makeup was finalized, Chen Sicheng was very satisfied with every look of Xu Yien.

Basically, all the styles in the movie were tried out, and the gray and white headgear of the elderly Cheng Bing was also customized early on.

Everything is ready, just turn it on.

That night.

The actors and other main creative staff in the crew gathered together for dinner.

Even Bai Yu, the "resource guy" arranged by Xu Yien to join the group, arrived two days ago and was still "criticizing" Xu Yien's faults.

"As the protagonist, you are the last to arrive."

"Don't I have to rest? Joining the group seamlessly would be exhausting."

"Hahahaha, that's right, it's good to take a break."

"uh-huh."

As everyone knows, whenever Bai Yu has film resources, they are basically arranged by Xu Yien.

Although they are all supporting roles, this kind of large-scale appearance is also enviable, not to mention that Bai Yu himself has mainstream TV drama resources, and appearing in movies is icing on the cake.

Between dramas and movies, it is undoubtedly more difficult to enter the film industry.

As for serious dramas, it’s not particularly difficult to act in them.

It’s more difficult with movies.

Unless you have top resources and sign a film capital contract right from the start, you have to take it slow.

Bai Jinting's performance in the drama circle is very eye-catching. He has been offered high-quality drama roles by major film and television companies, but he still has no film resources.

At the premiere of "Speeding Life 2", he begged for food in public from the director and producer.

It’s not difficult to act in a drama, but it’s very difficult to act in a movie.

Although Bai Jinting has such a good performance in the drama circle, the film industry doesn't want him.

In terms of serious dramas, he also played the third role behind Gao Ye in the TV version of "Article 20" "Self-Defense", and his future is almost clear at a glance.

You know, after becoming famous in the original time and space, Tan Jianci immediately started filming a movie. After the 24 tour in the third quarter, he will join the production of a new movie at the end of the year.

Many of Li Xian's TV series have failed, but he still has movies to shoot. Not only did he make a guest appearance in Da Bing's "Jiang Yuan Lane", he will also join the crew of a new movie in October.

There is a big difference between real red and fake red.

People like Bai Jinting who can't make a movie but are so self-righteous can only beg for food at premieres, right?
At this time, Gao Ye raised his glass and said with a broad smile: "Long time no see, Yi En."

"Sister-in-law, it's been a while since we last met, hahaha."

Gao Ye held his chin, stared at Xu Yien and smiled, and couldn't help but praise him: "You're handsome again."

"Sister Ye is getting more and more beautiful. Just wait for the broadcast of "Kuang Biao" so that you and Brother Xiao can shine!"

"Hahaha, with Ian's good wishes, I hope it will be possible. I also hope that our three teams will do well at the box office!" said Wang Xiao.

Xu Yien picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "I think it will definitely work."

Chen Sicheng put his arm around Xu Yien's shoulders, laughed, and said, "Everyone in our crew is your acquaintance."

There are quite a few familiar people in the crew of "The Third Brigade".

Wang Xiao and Gao Ye, who collaborated on "Kuang Biu";
Li Chen, the big black bull who worked with him in "The Journey Home".

Adding Bai Yu and Chen Sicheng to the mix, it could be considered a meeting among familiar people.

Among the other actors, Xu Yien is most interested in Zhang Benyu. This guy acted in "Never Expected" with Bai Ke and is now filming a movie, playing the villain Wang Eryong.

"It's good to have an acquaintance. There's no need for adjustment. You can start acting right away. Hahaha." Dai Mo also joined in.

Xu Yien nodded, grinning and said, "That's what I mean."

"Okay, let's have a drink and start eating!"

When the core leader Chen Sicheng gave the order, everyone stood up with their glasses in hand and only started eating after a toast.

Wei Chen said jokingly, "I'm nine years older than Yi En, but I'm playing the youngest character. Haha, it feels a bit awkward, especially since I'm playing my master."

"You look young, you've taken good care of yourself." Xu Yien said, "You look about the same age as me."

Chen Sicheng said: "You all look very well now. You look like you are in your twenties when you are in your thirties, but you probably look about the same as forty. Look at Xiaoming now, he is quite handsome. As long as you take good care of yourself, there will be no problem."

There is no need to worry too much about the actors' age incongruity, as this is a topic that has been talked about for a long time.

Xu Yien played Lian Anxin from her twenties to almost fifty, and her age span is even greater than Cheng Bing's. It was easy for her to play Cheng Bing.

Not to mention that Zong Dawei's character is also set to be in his thirties, so just sprinkle some water.

There is no big problem in terms of age. Guan Hu's new movie "Dongji Island" was originally Zhang Yi's project, and later the male lead was replaced by Zhu Yilong.

From this we can conclude that Zhu Yilong and Zhang Yi are also competitors.

Looking at Xu Yien's three consecutive dramas, "The Storm", "The Journey Home" and "The Third Squadron", Xu Yien and Zhang Yi can be considered competitors.

When it comes to filming, age is not a particularly big issue, and special effects makeup is quite common.

The rave reviews for Xu Yien's role as Zong Dawei are enough to prove this point.

"Hahahaha." Wei Chen laughed and said while eating his food, "Master Yi En, you have to be more patient."

"We can learn from each other. You can even teach me to sing. I really like listening to your doppelganger."

"Sure, if there's a chance, we can even sing a duet."

"Hahaha, okay."

"Hey, I heard that Ming Detective has invited you to be a guest in recent seasons. Why don't you go? This show is really fun, you can try it." Wei Chen remembered this and asked curiously.

Xu Yien shook his head slightly, and said helplessly, "Although I'm not stupid, I've never been very proficient in this kind of reasoning game, so I won't make a fool of myself. As for variety shows, I just go with the flow. I mainly shoot a lot of dramas every year."

Dai Mo agreed and said, "This is also good. Maintaining the mystery of the actors will give the audience a better viewing experience."

He is Chen Sicheng's cousin, and has been helped along the way. As the saying goes: When one person succeeds, the whole family will prosper.

If chickens and dogs can ascend to heaven, my cousin is no exception.

In terms of professional qualities as a director, Dai Mo is quite capable and his works are all shot very well.

This year, a web drama version of "Ball Lightning" was also filmed. This can be regarded as a key project of Kiwi, and it is one of Liu Cixin's classic works.

If he had no ability, Kiwi would never have given him this script to shoot.

Just because Dai Mo filmed the drama "Ball Lightning", Chen Sicheng also fell in love with the actress Ruan Ju in the drama, and their relationship was exposed by paparazzi in September.

Ruan Ju is also a young and beautiful girl, but she is definitely not comparable to his ex-wife YY.

Chen Sicheng and Dai Mo were different. They just kept praising Xu Yien: "Our great detective Sherlock Holmes will definitely be able to do well on Celebrity Detective. He's such a great actor, so playing a game is no problem? Isn't that a piece of cake?"

If you like an actor, all you have to do is praise him/her. This may be what is called flattery.

Wei Chen added: "Yeah, how would you know if you don't try?"

"I just know I won't try it. I don't even understand script-killing. I watch almost every season of the show, but I really can't be on it." Xu Yien's tone was full of helplessness.

Chen Sicheng's face was full of smiles, and his face was a little red after drinking two sips of wine.

At this time.

Chen Sicheng said loudly, "Don't worry, Yien. If it doesn't work out in real life, it will work out in the movie. When I get the chance to make a new suspense movie someday, I will definitely not let you play a villain again. You must play a handsome detective!"

If another director said this, Xu Yien might question it.

But this is Chen Sicheng, maybe it's true.

Chen Sicheng said that he was really unambiguous about working together again. After the original time and space "Gone Girl", he invited Ni Ni and Zhu Yilong to star in the two new movies respectively. This director can get along with anyone.

After Haoran's series of flops, didn't Chen Sicheng still come out as a god and start filming "The Decoder"?

As long as the crew had a pleasant cooperation during the filming, further cooperation can be arranged immediately.

There's really no way to describe this, this is something that can really be dealt with.

The dinner is over.

Everyone was a little tipsy.

This time Xu Yien didn't drink that much, two taels was enough for him. After returning to the hotel, he read the script for a while before going to bed.

……

……

The next day, the filming started.

The opening ceremony is not as grand as a TV drama, and it mainly needs to be low-key.

The opening ceremony of a movie is usually relatively low-key.

In most cases, the news is all over the Internet, but not a single picture from the actual set has been leaked.

This feeling is the best.

The end of the opening ceremony does not mean that the film will officially start.

Don't be in a hurry. Wait until night before you can really turn it on.

Since it didn't rain today, Chen Sicheng arranged for staff to create artificial rainfall. Nowadays, filming equipment is very advanced, so creating artificial rainfall is a piece of cake.

After everything was ready, and the set and camera positions were perfectly arranged, Chen Sicheng said with a serious face, "Let's start shooting."

The sound of rain was pattering and sirens were coming from far away.

Cheng Bing drove to the scene of the crime, turned off the engine and got out of the car.

She walked inside with the small leather bag in her hand.

The police officer called out, "Captain Cheng."

Cheng Bing nodded and crossed the cordon.

Cai Bin said: "The deceased was a girl who usually lived on campus. She had been resting at home for the past two days because she was not feeling well. Her parents found out about the case after they came back from playing cards at a relative's house and reported it at 12:17 in the morning.

Based on the initial judgment at the scene, the suspect entered by touching the air conditioner. This is a violent murder case triggered by burglary. The girl is only fourteen..."

The two went upstairs together, and Cheng Bing listened to the background information. When he heard this, he stopped.

"I just won third place in the provincial mathematics competition last month."

After calming down, the two continued to walk upwards.

Cheng Bing asked, "Where's the murder weapon?" "A bronze trophy, belonging to the victim. There are several obvious scars on his head."

Another police officer came downstairs and greeted Cheng Bing politely: "Captain Cheng."

Cheng Bing instructed, "Remove the security line downstairs. Don't wait until daybreak, or people will gather around."

While speaking, Cheng Bing put on gloves swiftly.

When he arrived at the floor where the crime occurred, Cheng Bing only heard the sobbing of the victim's family.

They all sat on the stairs, with no expression other than sadness on their faces, and the female police officer could only comfort them.

Walking inside, Ma Zhenkun saw him without delay and said, "Captain Cheng, the room is not messy. The drawers and cabinets have been turned over. The purpose of looting is clear."

Cai Bin looked at Cheng Bing and said, "Hey, the Equipment Department always complains that we use too much for criminal investigation."

After saying that, he looked at the police officer standing at the door and said, "From the Third Brigade!"

Cheng Bing didn't say anything about this episode, but just took the shoe covers.

"Crack!"

Chen Sicheng chose to pause during this period.

The main reason is that the house has not been decorated yet.

Click here, finish the arrangement inside and then continue shooting this part.

The set design we just did was mainly downstairs and arranging the camera positions. All these things inside have to be rearranged. Filming is so troublesome.

During the filming of "She Vanished", Chen Sicheng was sometimes not satisfied with the camera position, so he overturned it and changed it, and the original plot was scrapped.

Even if the director likes this camera position, as long as Chen Sicheng doesn't like it, this segment will be ruined. No matter what, he is the boss of the crew.

For Chen Sicheng, the director he chooses is actually like a photographer. He keeps the good shots and reshoots the bad ones.

The staff were busy arranging the room, while Xu Yien took the phone handed to him by Liu Cheng.

Check if there are any messages that require a WeChat reply. If not, look at the script again.

Playing games in free time during filming on set is not something that everyone can do casually.

After all, he has some talent.

Extras poured into the room, which was not spacious to begin with, and now it was even more crowded.

In this situation, Chen Sicheng arranged the positions of the extras and the camera.

This busy work will probably take more than half an hour.

Replied a few messages.

Xu Yien edited a message to Ni Ni: [Didn't you say you would come to the set to accompany me? When will you come?]

Ni Ni replied immediately: [Come tomorrow. We'll go to the Golden Rooster Awards together in a few days.]

She was also doing Pilates in the hotel during her free time, and she immediately picked up her phone when it rang.

Xu Yien: [Ouch ouch.]

Ni Ni: [Jiu Mi~ I love you.]

Ni Ni likes surfing the Internet and reading girls' comics, so she is very good at making memes.

Xu Yien: [Step forward!]

Ni Ni: [How did you type this?]

Xu Yien: [Hesitation is just a hesitation.]

Ni Ni: [Interesting! I've learned this. I'll use it the same way from now on.]

Xu Yien: [Love/.]

Ni Ni: [Your film started shooting today. How is the filming going?]

Xu Yien: [I just filmed a scene, I’ll film again later. I missed you after filming for a while so I sent you a message.]

Ni Ni: [Why didn’t I see you this morning? You missed me?]

Xu Yien: [No, I've always missed you.]

Ni Ni: [Okay, okay, I'll come over tomorrow. Enen is pretty clingy.]

Xu Yien: [I am just like that. Is it bad to be clingy? I want to kiss you right now.]

Ni Ni: [We’ll get to kiss tomorrow~ First, a WeChat kiss, Mua!]

After Chen Sicheng called him over to take the photo, Xu Yien handed the phone to Liu Cheng.

Filming is important, it’s not a place to just idle away your time.

If you come here just to get by, the director will be very sarcastic and will point his finger at you and scold you.

Lao Mi and Liu Shishi have been scolded by the director in interviews more than once or twice.

Dedication that only fans can see.

After entering the scene, we arranged our movements and then started filming.

In the narrow room, the forensic doctor was examining the body and the police were writing records.

Seeing Cheng Bing at the door, Liao Jian said, "Captain Cheng, the murderer must have been searching for this place for a long time. We haven't heard any unusual sounds in the past few hours."

Liao Jian picked up the cut phone line and continued, "Look at this. He cut the phone line as soon as he came in. It seems he's a repeat offender."

"Survey the situation, cut telephone lines, night operations, sparrows?" Cai Bin asked with a serious face.

Liao Jian replied: "Sparrow and the others don't dare to kill people violently."

"Then he must be from outside and may have a criminal record."

Cheng Bing observed the room and said experiencedly, "Let's take a fingerprint first."

Liao Jian: “No.”

"What's not there?"

"Fingerprints," Liao Jian said, picking up the wrapped and preserved trophy. "There's none on the murder weapon."

The forensic doctor who was squatting on the ground looked up and said, "Captain Cheng, we've extracted what appears to be male secretions from the deceased's body. The skin is severely torn..."

"Eh? How long does the DNA process at our provincial department take?"

"A week or so."

"Tsk."

"There are two deep wounds on the deceased's head, suggesting death from excessive blood loss. Libido is also very obvious. The time of death is preliminary..."

The forensic doctor was interrupted when he reached this point.

"Four hours!"

It turned out to be Xu Yizhou. He held the camera and said, "The body is in the sedimentation stage, the color is obvious, and the time of death is at least four hours."

Cheng Bing glanced at him, then squatted down and pressed the corpse's arm without saying anything. Liao Jian said in surprise, "Xiao Xu, you can perform an autopsy?"

"Yeah, I learned a little bit in the police academy."

Ma Zhenkun raised his hand and gestured: "Be quiet."

Hearing him say this, Xu Yizhou pouted.

Cheng Bing observed it for a moment, then looked up at the forensic doctor: "Within two hours?"

The medical examiner replied: "The time of death was around 11 o'clock."

Liao Jian looked at Xu Yizhou and said, "It's so hot, but the livor mortis appeared in just half an hour. Ah, learn from this."

After helping the corpse straighten her skirt, Cheng Bing stood up, walked to the window, and opened the curtains. "Where is their air conditioner installed?"

"In the master bedroom! Captain Cheng, I checked."

Cheng Bing was surprised, "Why are you here, Master?"

Zhang Qingliang said, "There haven't been any cases like this in ten years. I'm going to stand guard for the last time."

Arriving at the master bedroom, the two of them went to the window together.

Looking out the window, Zhang Qingliang told Cheng Bing the clue.

"The footprints on the air conditioner's exterior belonged to two people. No valuable fingerprints were found at the scene. The perpetrator was definitely wearing gloves. The scratches on the floor indicate the victim put up a fierce resistance, and the perpetrator must have been brutal during that process."

Cheng Bing nodded to show that he understood.

Zhang Qingliang leaned closer and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Hey, I just got a call from my boss. I hope the case will be solved as soon as possible. Can you tell me how many days it will take?"

Looking at the tragedy at the crime scene, Cheng Bing couldn't make any promises.

"talk later."

As the on-site investigators prepared to take the body away, Cheng Bing suddenly remembered an important clue and said, "Button!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Yizhou said in a loud voice: "Yes, is there a criminal suspect on the button..."

"Shut up." Liao Jian said and threw the tape to Cai Bin.

Stick the tape on the button and pull it.

Finally, the police obtained the only valuable fingerprint at the scene on the button.

"There are indeed fingerprints. Those two beasts took off their gloves when they were doing it."

The last shot shows Cheng Bing’s solemn expression, click!

but……

Chen Sicheng was not very satisfied with this segment and felt that the camera position was not right.

Just look at the three words he said: "not quite right".

This segment will definitely have to be reshot.

I just don't know how many times I had to shoot it.

I guess I'll have to work overtime until the early morning, and I don't know if I still need to make changes.

It's both happy and painful. The painful part is that I have to keep taking pictures, but the happy part is that I will have a midnight snack later.
