Chapter 851 Star Dream

Song Xi and his female companion trotted back to Minguo City. There was a TV drama crew filming here. The two had just arrived when a man in his thirties came over with a sullen face after seeing them.

"Song Xi, Li Shuiqin, why did you go there? I couldn't find any of you for the scheduled job. Do you still want to do it? I was short of people just now, so I was scolded by Director Qian." The man opened his mouth and reprimanded.

This man is the leader of the group, his name is Han Kui, and he has 40 or 50 group performers. Song Xi and Li Shuiqin are with him. Certain small connections.

Director Qian that Han Kui said is the assistant director of the crew, responsible for casting, scheduling, props, logistics, group performances, etc. For group performances, such an assistant director is a big shot who can control their life and death. Just let you have no work to do.

"Brother Kui, there is a big drama starting in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, starring Chen Kun and Gu Liya, let's go and have a look. By the way, Brother Kui, do we have any work over there? If so, when the time comes You can ask for an autograph, take a group photo, etc." Li Shuiqin said with a smile.

Han Kui glared at her, "That kind of big show is so easy to pick up the job, it has already been snatched by those big group leaders, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and change your clothes, and go play your whore."

Song Xi just wanted to go with Li Shuiqin, but Han Kui stopped her, "Song Xi, wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Song Xi asked in surprise.

"Let's go to the side and talk," said Song Xi and left, Song Xi glanced at Li Shuiqin, and the two followed. Han Kui turned his head and saw Li Shuiqin also followed, his face darkened and said: "Li Shuiqin, go change your clothes , there will be another play in a while."

"Oh~~" Li Shuiqin had no choice but to turn around and leave, but when she turned around, she gave Song Xi a subtle wink.

Han Kui and Song Xi came under a tree. Han Kui looked at Song Xi. Song Xi was very beautiful and tall. To be honest, he also coveted Song Xi and showed it twice, but he didn't accept it. This kind of graduate from a regular drama school has too much arrogance in his bones.

Han Kui took out a cigarette and lit it, took a puff, and said in a serious tone: "Song Xi, how long have you been in Hengdian?"

"It's been almost a year." Song Xi said.

"Yeah, it's been a year, and you should have seen things in Hengdian. There are so many things here, and there are the most people. There are hundreds of thousands of people in Hengdian looking for jobs. School flowers are everywhere. Goddess people, catch a lot here, look at the group performers you have together, which one is not pretty."

"What are they doing? Is it for the hundred and ten yuan a day, or is it waiting for an opportunity to become the next Wang Baoqiang and Zhang Liying?"

"But it's not so easy to become famous. Opportunities don't come by waiting, but by fighting for them. If you want to get them, you have to pay. You are a student of opera, and you are half a major. You are beautiful, and what you need is an opportunity. Understand Bar."

Song Xi nodded.

"Director Qian of our production team is responsible for arranging the roles. He has the right to choose small roles in the play. Director Qian told me that he is very optimistic about you and wants to ask you to drink and sing K. Let's talk later. Isn't it okay to take a small role? Problems, this is an opportunity." Han Kui said.

Song Xi naturally knew that drinking and singing were just superficial vocabulary, not that he wanted to sleep. This kind of thing was common in Hengdian, so it shouldn't be too much. Thinking of Qian Dao's greasy middle-aged appearance, Song Xi felt a shock in his heart.

"I don't know how to drink, nor can I sing." Song Xi said in a blunt tone.

"you!"

Han Kui was a little angry.

"Let me tell you, this is a rare opportunity. Many people come from such backgrounds. They have small roles before they can become big ones, and finally they can become stars. Don't you want to be a big star?" Han Kui said.

Song Xi shook his head.

"I want to be a star, but I don't want to live like that. At worst, I won't do it and go home to eat with my parents." Song Xi said.

When she was studying Chinese opera, she had imagined countless times that she could become famous and become a big star, but she didn't want to abuse herself and let this kind of person abuse her. If that happened, she might not even be able to forgive herself.

She has her bottom line and dignity, at worst, go home to find her parents, do what she can to stay alive, at worst, give up her star dream.

In this year's ensemble career, she has seen too many dark sides. Many people take Wang Baoqiang and Zhang Liying as role models, but there are only a few who can really stand out. It is like buying lottery tickets. Millions of people buy lottery tickets. Is there a jackpot winner?

These assistant directors talk about praising you and giving you a chance, but they don't actually want to sleep with you.

Song Xi has seen some beautiful girls. For that small role, she slept with the group leader and the assistant director. This crew slept with that crew. They slept and slept, and they were played around by men. Still a ensemble.

Han Kui's face became a little unhappy. Director Qian took a fancy to Song Xi and asked him to say that if it was done, he could deepen his personal connections and find more scenes in the future. Now that Song Xi refuses, then It is equivalent to offending someone and cutting off one's own money.

Han Kui threw away the cigarette butt, twisted it vigorously on the ground with his toes, and said, "Think about it again, this is a rare opportunity, let's act first."

Song Xi turned and left.

Putting on a cheongsam, turning her head casually, and standing in front of the mirror to put on makeup, Li Shuiqin looked at Song Xi and said, "Your figure, with protruding front and long legs, looks really good in a cheongsam."

Speaking of this, she approached and whispered: "Much better than those heroines, by the way, what does Han Kui want from you?"

Song Xi continued to put on makeup, but did not speak.

Li Shuiqin said to himself, "Actually, I can guess that those people are not all virtuous. They want to go to the beautiful ones, promise this and promise that, and what can they do in the end? Hey, what about these actors? There can be a few early ones."

The two changed their clothes and came out, cleared the scene and started filming. This scene was very simple. The hero and heroine were walking on the street, surrounded by a strong style of the Republic of China, and then a rickshaw passed by. The master's foot slipped, and the male lead took her into his arms, and then looked at each other, and a feeling of affection slowly grew between the two of them looking at each other.

A clichéd yet beautiful scene.

They are all worn out.

But there are bad markets as well.

Li Shuiqin was wearing a cheongsam, leaning against a doorway pretending to be a prostitute, while Song Xi was carrying a small bag, pretending to be a woman shopping in the street.

This kind of work costs 100 a day in Hengdian, and for two lunches, the group leader gets 10% of the fee.

"action!"

The director gave an order.

machine on,

The extras moved and wandered the streets like zombies, without any energy, but they were just background panels, they were all imaginary in the camera, and no one cared about them.

hero and heroine appear,

The male protagonist is wearing a well-knit suit, the female protagonist is wearing a cheongsam, the male protagonist glances at the female protagonist from time to time, the female protagonist looks a little shy, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the two have a little bit of meaning for each other.

at this time,

A rickshaw ran quickly from behind. When approaching the two of them, the rickshaw driver rang the bell and made a "Dangdang" sound. The heroine was startled, and quickly flashed towards the hero. She slipped and was about to fall , the male protagonist took advantage of the situation and hugged, and then there was an ambiguous moment between the two.

But at this moment, an accident happened. After the rickshaw ran past the heroine, it rushed towards Song Xi who was next to her. On the waist, Song Xi groaned in pain, and fell to the ground all of a sudden.

Song Xi covered his waist, sweating from the pain.

And this accident also brought this scene to an end.

"Card!"

The director yelled, what a great scene, it's over, and it needs to be re-taken. The director stood up and pointed at the coachman angrily and cursed: "What's the matter with you, that coachman, why are you so careless?"

"Director, I was wrong. I just slipped and went off track." The driver quickly apologized.

"Okay, clean up the reshoots, it's a mess," said the director.

The male lead and the female lead separated. The two tidied up their clothes and walked back, preparing to reshoot this scene.

Deputy Director Qian came over and scolded the rickshaw driver, "You are blind, don't you want to do it anymore, people do what you don't want to do, and Hengdian has no shortage of people, you know."

"Director Qian, I will definitely pay attention next time, I must pay attention." The coachman apologized with a nod and bow, but there was a smile in his eyes, and he secretly gave Director Qian a small wink.

"Go back and shoot again, you can't make a mistake next time."

"I know I know."

The rickshaw driver pulled the rickshaw and ran away, leaving only Song Xi in the arena. From the beginning to the end, no one cared about her. Her waist hurts very much, and she still has a feeling of bile.

"Why are you still sitting on the ground? If you want to make a film, you must have dedication. Why, you still want the crew to report you a work-related injury."

At this moment, a cold voice sounded, Song Xi turned her head and saw Dao Qian looking at her impatiently.

"I~~."

"What are you doing? Just leave if you don't want to do it. There is no shortage of people here. Can you afford to delay the shooting progress?" Director Qian said coldly.

People around watched this scene, and some people seemed to understand something, Song Xi was probably being targeted.

Song Xi took a breath and wanted to stand up. Her cheongsam was a bit tight, and her waist was very painful. She didn't get up for the first time. Li Shuiqin, who was standing in the distance, was in a daze, and ran over with her lips pursed, helping Song Xi Xi pulled her up.

"Humph!"

Director Qian snorted coldly, turned around and shouted to the other extras, "Everyone do your job well, there is no shortage of people in Hengdian, if you don't want to do it, get out, return the props, the extras are in place, and I'm going to reshoot the scene just now in 3 minutes .”

Song Xi gritted her teeth in pain, Li Shuiqin gave her a quick rub twice, and said, "Are you okay, I'm going back."

"It's okay, you can go back, thank you Sister Shuiqin." Song Xi thanked in a low voice.

"Thank you, hey, be careful yourself, keep your eyes open." Li Shuiqin said and immediately ran back to her place, continuing to pretend to be a prostitute leaning on the door.

Shooting continues,

It was just that scene.

Song Xi eased up a bit, her waist didn't hurt as much as before, but she still walked slowly.

She is not stupid.

She knew that the scene just now might not be a coincidence. The original video of the rickshaw was about two or three meters away from her.

In addition to the eccentric words of Deputy Director Qian just now, she knew that it was a warning to herself.

Although it is already May, Song Xi's heart is still cold, this is the showbiz, this is the bottom.

Is her dream of stardom really possible?
