Chapter 24 The actor is not as he expected

Jiang Dao got up, walked to the door and stood side by side with Chu Yinlong.

“I don’t want to go to the audition either, but I can’t refuse the job arranged by the company.” His face returned to his usual laziness, with a smile on his lips, “But you also know that I’m not easy to bully, if he really dares… hehe , I still don’t know who is unlucky.”

Having said that, Chu Yinlong also understands that Jiang Dao is not an unscrupulous person for his superiors, and he is not powerless. But there was still an inexplicable irritability burning in his heart, which he couldn’t suppress.

“If you need, I can give you an excuse to refuse the audition.” In the end, Chu Yinlong still suggested, “I have a movie that I’m planning to shoot recently, and I can give you a role position, and use the schedule conflict to push down that web drama .”

Hearing this, Jiang Dao raised his eyebrows and squinted at him: “Why do I feel that you are taking advantage of others?”

Chu Yinlong was helpless: “I am this kind of villain in your eyes?”

Jiang Dao shrugged: “Who knows…”

Chu Yinlong sighed and declined to comment.

The two stood side by side at the door watching the rain for a while, and saw the door of the main house next to them open.

Qi Peng stood under the eaves and waved his hand: “Are you awake? Get ready to gather in the main house. The director and the others will come up later.”

After several guests took turns to wash up and had a simple breakfast, the director team also went up the mountain.

Due to weather restrictions, only one close-up camera, one assistant, and the program director came to shoot the daily routine this time. Most of the shots needed for editing will probably be done with cameras installed in the house.

“Jiang Dao, your phone.” The assistant who came along returned Jiang Dao’s phone to him, “Don’t worry, our own staff repaired it, and the information security is guaranteed… Oh, your agent came to you in the morning and asked you to give it to him Call back.”

“Thank you.” Jiang Dao took the phone, greeted Qi Peng, went out and hid under the eaves, and called Zhu Yao back.

On the phone, Zhu Yao cut to the chase: “The company recently got two web drama scripts, and one of them is quite suitable for you. I talked to Chu Yinlong’s assistant and booked a flight to Lin City for you. I’ll be there tomorrow Pick you up and go to the audition.”

Sure enough, it was the news.

Jiang Dao lowered his eyelashes and gave a low “hmm”.

“I roughly read the script, and the villain in it is quite suitable for you, so I won an audition for you.” Zhu Yao thought that Jiang Dao had doubts, and explained, “Although it is not the male lead and the second male lead, this villain is also considered worthy.” Charm, don’t resist.”

“The villain doesn’t matter.” Jiang Dao wanted to confirm, and asked, “What type of film? What’s the name? Who is the director?”

Zhu Yao’s tone was still flat: “It’s an ancient costume idol drama, adapted from the novel “The Demon of Peach”. If nothing else, the director is Li Cheng.”

It’s Li Cheng.

Chu Yinlong didn’t lie to him.

Jiang Dao exhaled slowly, perfunctory Zhu Yao a few words, and hung up the phone.

When he returned to the main room, he saw that the tables and chairs in the main hall had been moved away, leaving an open space.

No matter what troubles his agent caused him, he is currently recording a variety show and cannot bring his personal emotions into it. Regardless of whether the audition is a dragon’s lake or a tiger’s den, he has to finish today’s work well first.

Thinking of this, Jiang Dao hid all his emotions and walked back to the crowd facing Chu Yinlong.

Due to the weather, the originally scheduled vegetable garden picking activity could not be carried out. The director team changed the way of obtaining lunch ingredients to darts to win prizes—they brought a dart board with small notes of various ingredients on it. The guests You only need to hit the corresponding grid to get the ingredients attached to the grid.

“Guests each have three darts, and how much ingredients you can get depends on how steady your hands are.” The director said with a smile, “You are not allowed to hand over your darts to others, once you find out, you will have to deduct the ingredients.” .”

Hearing this, Cheng Zhiyi silently retracted the hand that was about to hand the dart to Qi Peng.

Qi Peng laughed and said, “It’s useless for you to give it to me. I haven’t practiced darts, so you have to give it to Brother Chu. His hands are the most stable.”

Cheng Zhiyi resentfully said, “The director said you can’t cheat, forget it.”

“Since Xiao Chu knows how to play this game, let’s put him last.” Haitang held the darts with a helpless expression on her face, “I’ve never played this game before, so it’s up to Xiao Chu to be the finale.”

Everyone agrees with this.

So Qi Peng commanded: “Then Haitang, you come first, then Xiao Dao, me, Xiao Yi, Director Mu, An An, we all interspersed… Finally, Xiao Chu will finish for us.”

Hearing that he was being queued at the front, Jiang Dao did not refute, and silently took the dart handed by the variety show assistant, and queued behind Haitang.

Then everyone got together to discuss which ingredients they wanted most. In the end, everyone agreed that the fish from the nearby lake must be taken. It is located in the center of the dart board, and it really deserves to be the C position of the ingredient.

The rain outside the window showed no sign of stopping, and inside the house, the dart game began soon.

Haitang was the first to play, and she did explain what it means to “have never played darts before”—not to mention whether the darts can hit the target, even if one of the three darts did hit the target, it failed to hit the target because of lack of strength. Go in, struggled for a moment, and fell to the ground.

Qi Peng stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder: “It’s okay, your hands are used to create delicious food, and the ingredients are handed over to us!”

Haitang smiled helplessly and left the stage.

Holding three darts, Jiang Dao stood behind the rope pulled by the director’s team, compared the distance from the target, and weighed the darts in his hand.

Then, he picked up a dart, glanced at it, and threw it vigorously with his hands.

There was only a dull impact, and the dart landed firmly on the target—unfortunately, it was a little far from the red heart, and hit the square on the edge of the target with “garlic sprouts”.

Qi Peng was not disappointed, and immediately applauded: “Not bad, not bad, the small island flag wins! Come on, don’t miss the target and you will win!”

Jiang Dao smiled at him, picked up the second dart, raised his hand without hesitation, and threw it—

Steadily hit the red heart… a square of “bacon” next to it.

Cheng Zhiyi: “Small island cow beep!”

An Zhe also smiled and said, “That’s right, fried bacon with garlic sprouts, it’s a complete dish.”

Mu Zhixing looked at Jiang Dao with a smile on his face, picked up the thermos, and took a sip slowly.

After browsing through the labeling of ingredients on the target again, Jiang Dao unconsciously turned the last dart in his hand, then raised his hand, threw it out, and gently poked an “egg” in the middle of the target.

On the side, Chu Yinlong said: “Eggs are good, versatile, and can be put in any dish.”

Jiang Dao smiled back: “That’s good, luckily we didn’t miss the target.”

Hearing this, Chu Yinlong’s gaze stayed on Jiang Dao’s face for a moment, and finally nodded.

Next, Qi Peng, Cheng Zhiyi, Mu Zhixing, and An Zhe came on stage in turn, and took down two pig’s trotters, a box of tofu, and several vegetables and fruits, and the lunch ingredients were immediately abundant. It’s a pity that none of them could hit the big luck and get the fish in the bull’s-eye in the end.

In the end, Chu Yinlong played and lived up to everyone’s expectations. The first dart hit the red heart and took the fish into his pocket.

“Pleurotus eryngii mushroom!” Qi Peng shouted from the audience.

Chu Yinlong raised his dart and hit the grid with “Pleurotus eryngii” on it.

“The last…preserved egg? It just so happens that the tender tofu we brought can be used as a cold dish.”

Chu Yinlong nodded, and took off the two preserved eggs effortlessly.

…

The game of obtaining ingredients is over, and there is nothing else to worry about this morning.

Seeing that the rain would not stop for a while, everyone packed up the tables and chairs in the main house, chatted together, and provided editable shooting content for the show. Director Mu, Qi Peng, and Chu Yinlong are old acquaintances, and they have collaborated on many films. While chatting, they inevitably began to recall the past, and finally the topic fell on Chu Yinlong.

“It’s really scary to make a movie with him.” Mu Zhixing obviously suffered a lot, “He is an action director in his part-time group, and sometimes he has to change the scene… I don’t know if you remember, he There’s a BASE jumping scene?”

“It’s the part in “Han Xiao”, right?” Qi Peng cooperated.

“Yes, that’s that part!” Mu Zhixing patted the table, “Originally, we thought about shooting in the studio, and turning around to make special effects on the cliff. But he didn’t want to shoot on location. Didn’t you see it? , At that time, his assistant was about to cry… That was cliff jumping, low altitude, a little misoperation and the person would be gone…”

“It’s so easy to make mistakes anywhere.” Chu Yinlong retorted, “There is a special person to measure the height, and a whole team helps me check the equipment, check the wind direction, and ensure safety… Besides, I have passed the skydiving certificate.”

Mu Zhixing gave a “tsk”, pointed at Chu Yinlong, and said to Jiang Dao, “Look, there is such a person who had the nerve to scold you yesterday.”

Jiang Dao had nothing to say and could only smile cooperatively.

Mu Zhixing didn’t expect him to say anything, and continued on his own: “It wasn’t this time that was thrilling. When filming “Returning to the Nest”, his life almost died.”

This is something Qi Peng didn’t understand anymore, so he couldn’t help being surprised: “What’s going on?”

Mu Zhixing said: “I have to design difficult moves, saying that the shots look good, jumping from the second floor to the roof of the car, the speed of the car is not slow, when he jumped down, he slipped and didn’t stop on the roof, and rolled directly onto the ground , next to it was a pile of bricks from the set, all of which fell on him…”

“hiss!”

“oops-”

“My God…”

Everyone has complicated faces.

Mu Zhixing reached out and tapped Chu Yinlong’s forehead: “Look carefully, there is still a shallow scar here that has not disappeared, and the blood was bleeding at that time, tsk tsk.”

Chu Yinlong was speechless: “This is something that happened when I was a teenager, why bring it up?”

Mu Zhixing stared: “Because you haven’t changed it yet! Well, you are independent now, and you have started to direct and act on your own. I don’t know what you can do… Yes, I heard that when you made your last movie, And broke your arm?”

Chu Yinlong: …

Jiang Dao listened silently, his eyes could not help but fall on Chu Yinlong’s forehead.

After carefully identifying it for a long time, he saw that there was indeed an unclear scar there when the other party turned his head and looked at the light. After all, Chu Yinlong is an actor, he should have been treated well after the injury, and perhaps added skin plastic surgery in the follow-up…

But even so, the scar still couldn’t be completely removed. It is conceivable that the wound at that time should be very deep.

It turned out that actors are not as he thought, as long as they can “pretend” others, they can easily do the job.

If it weren’t for the support of some belief in his heart, probably no one would be able to persevere after repeated injuries… Perhaps, acting really has a certain charm that he hasn’t discovered yet.
