Chapter 100 Group Evolution Leading Role
Two or three days later, all scenes without a male lead will be filmed, and there is still no news about the actor Xu Mingrui contacted.
What the outside world talks about, they don't care for the time being.
If the male lead is no longer sure, the crew will lose their hearts.
Song Qingyou finished filming a scene in the morning, and took Xu Mingrui outside to talk.
Without her asking, Xu Mingrui knew what to say:
"My sister wants to ask about the male lead, right? The first few well-known actors I contacted, they all declined, saying that they have a movie to shoot and they are too busy. I guess they don't like our crew."
"The people who contacted later should be worried about offending people."
Song Qingyou said: "Who offended? Qiu Yu?"
"How can Qiu Yu be so capable?" Xu Mingrui shook his head and said, "It was the director of "Time" who spoke."
The director of "Time" became famous for his TV series. He made two movies with good box office in his early years, and he still has a lot of say in the film and television industry.
Ca is an older celebrity artist, so he must not be taken into account.
The problem is that Xu Mingrui only looks for actors who are slightly famous.
Where are these people willing to offend a big director for a role?
Song Qingyou pondered for a moment, then casually asked an irrelevant question:
"How is his TV series and movies doing?"
"Very average." Xu Mingrui showed distaste, "I like to use traffic stars to shoot movies, and they are very good at sensationalizing. Fans of those stars eat this kind of thing... This time I filmed a tribute drama, I think I want to give myself a layer of gold."
Song Qingyou nodded slightly, and was about to speak when her eyes suddenly stopped and fell on several group performers under the shade of a tree not far away.
To be precise, she was looking at Xu Xingzhou leaning against the tree trunk.
Xu Mingrui glanced over there: "There's a new crew on the opposite side. It seems to be filming a low-budget puppet show. The group of performers over there should be looking for filming."
There are many extras in the film and television city, and most of them are just like odd jobs, looking for the crew everywhere to take on the show.
Song Qingyou didn't speak, just looked at the bearded man coming out from inside.
The bearded man still held a trumpet in his hand.
"Here we want ordinary group performers, as long as the body is qualified, one hundred and one day, lunch and dinner are available! Come and sign up!"
He responded, and the group performers who were sitting and standing outside all walked over.
Xu Xingzhou rushed the fastest.
However, when the bearded man saw him, his complexion became dark.
"Why are you again? This crew doesn't welcome you, so go away!"
"Being a group performer is as high as the sky, and everyone says that other people's acting skills are poor, who dares to want you! This film and television city may not be able to accommodate you!"
Before Xu Xingzhou could make a sound, he was squeezed down by the people behind him.
There are people beside him who are discussing how divine Xu Xingzhou is.
Xu Mingrui was far away, and couldn't hear what those people said clearly.
So he didn't know what Song Qingyou was watching, so he couldn't help asking: "Sister, what are you watching? The ensemble performance over there is very good?"
Song Qingyou pointed at Xu Xingzhou who was excluded from the crowd: "What do you think of him?"
"Huh?" Xu Mingrui was surprised, and then carefully looked at Xu Xingzhou.
"The appearance condition is not bad... But it's just a group performer, sister, you don't want him to play the male lead, do you...?"
Before Xu Mingrui finished speaking, he turned around and found that Song Qingyou was gone.
It took a few seconds to realize that she actually went straight to the group performer.
As soon as Song Qingyou approached, Xu Xingzhou raised his head.
Song Qingyou cut to the chase: "Are you going to play?"
"Accept!" Xu Xingzhou nodded without hesitation.
"I haven't said anything about the role yet, so you take it?"
"I can play any role, even a woman."
Song Qingyou chuckled, "Forget about being a girl, I want you to play the male lead."
Her words made Xu Xingzhou unable to recover for a while.
When he spoke again, his eyes were flushed: "Are you kidding me?"
"I'm fine, what are you doing joking with you?"
"But you have to pass the audition, Director Xu, what do you think?"
Xu Mingrui rubbed his nose, "Please invite an extra actor to be the leading actor, sister, are you really making fun of me?"
"Xu Xingzhou's acting skills are very good."
"Do you know each other?"
"He is my classmate in acting training class."
Song Qingyou winked at Xu Xingzhou, "Xu Xingzhou, come play a part of my little princess role!"
The three of them found a corner where there were no idlers.
Xu Xingzhou didn't need to brew up his emotions, he just opened his mouth.
Xu Mingrui heard him make a female voice, and then looked at his demeanor and movements, he was completely stunned.
This time Song Qingyou didn't need to say more, Xu Mingrui took the initiative to bring Xu Xingzhou into the crew, and specially asked him to act according to the script.
Zhen Wenwen, who was on the sidelines, lowered her voice and asked Song Qingyou: "Who is this? Why haven't I seen it before?"
"It's a group performer, and also our new male lead."
"Actor?" Zhen Wenwen's eyes were bulging.
But after Xu Xingzhou started performing, she was not so surprised.
Yu Muhuai was puzzled: "Is it someone you know?"
Song Qingyou nodded.
Xu Xingzhou's arrival aroused heated discussions among the crew.
Some of the extras who knew him thought he was lucky, and after being rejected by so many crews, he was able to turn from an extra to a leading role!
When Xu Xingzhou is finished with makeup, no matter how bitter some people are, they have to admit that Xu Xingzhou's appearance is several grades better than Zhou Jin's.
Xu Mingrui walked around him a few times, "That's right, the character design of the male protagonist Yan is not very pleasing, if the appearance is not good enough, then he will only be scolded!"
After finishing speaking, he clapped his hands, "Hurry up, everyone, the previous scenes will have to be replayed!"
After hearing from Song Qingyou that Xu Xingzhou had a photographic memory, Xu Mingrui was even more satisfied and couldn't wait to reshoot.
——
In the afternoon of that day, the official blog of "Xianmolu" released the makeup photos of the new leading actor.
Looking at the face alone, everyone who follows this drama is very satisfied.
But once I opened the X-degree encyclopedia and searched for Xu Xingzhou, I couldn't find anything except the names of people with the same name and surname.
After inquiring again, everyone knew that this Xu Xingzhou was just a group performer!
Moreover, according to reports in the circle, even if Xu Xingzhou was just a group performer, he was kicked out by several crews!
According to ordinary people's thinking, if you are kicked out, doesn't that mean you are not qualified to be a group performer? !
Oh! Could it be that the crew of "Xianmolu" just took a fancy to his face?
Looking around, the comment section supports the decision of the crew, and you can count on one hand, and the rest are all just watching the show and making complaints.
[The crew was already messed up, but now it’s even worse]
[Although this Xu Xingzhou looks much better than Zhou Jin, the problem is that he is just a group performer]
[I just want to ask, who gave Xu Mingrui and Song Qingyou the courage? ]
[Did Jiang Xuyan and Yu Muhuai regret working with Song Qingyou? ]
[This drama won’t be a mess* from the inside to the outside, right? ]
Zhou Jin even posted photos of himself filming on Weibo, posting:
【Let me just say, a certain crew is in charge of a certain actress, do you understand what I mean? 】
Zhou Jin threw stones into the well aboveboard.
However, he forgot that his affairs were not over yet.
Netizens don’t like this one, copying hot reviews one after another:
[Understood, you are far behind @许星洲! ]
[Understood, you are far behind @许星洲! ]
[Understood, you are far behind @许星洲! ]
Zhou Jin was so angry that he simply deleted this Weibo.
Unfortunately, sand sculpture netizens have taken screenshots, he is destined to become a joke.
