Chapter 45 Huayi's Dike: Undercurrents
Say something.
Tian Xiwei really has a talent for acting, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to get into the Shanghai Theatre Academy.
However, this was also thanks to Xu An's help. While the two were waiting for filming to start at the hotel, he helped Tian Xiwei write a character biography and carefully studied the script.
That's why she was able to perform so perfectly at that moment.
Xu An appeared in the shot at the right time, following the positions set up by director Liu Chang.
"Hey? What are you doing here?"
Xu An stuck his head through the iron bars, looking at Tian Xiwei with a mocking expression.
Tian Xiwei's expression changed several times, looking at him with shock and confusion: "How did you get in?"
"That's how I came in!" Xu An was confused, but he still demonstrated it to Tian Xiwei.
When she saw that Xu An's head could move freely inside the iron bars, she immediately broke down.
But he quickly realized the key point and began to plead like a Sichuan opera face-changing act.
"Help me pull my head out, I'm stuck here and can't get out."
Xu An didn't hesitate. He got up, came behind her, grabbed her head with both hands, and pulled her out like a radish.
It feels pretty good in the hand!
He pulled hard to pull outwards, while Tian Xiwei squeezed hard to push inwards.
They were terrified of being exposed.
The two vividly demonstrated what it means to be evenly matched.
After trying several times, Xu An simply gave up, got up and went to the side, saying, "I can't help you anymore."
Just as Tian Xi was feeling a little disappointed and was about to try again, Xu An suddenly kicked the iron railing.
A deafening sound rang in Tian Xiwei's ears, and for a moment she forgot whether she was acting or not.
He stood up and started cursing.
The genuine reaction made Liu Chang, who was sitting in front of the monitor, burst out laughing.
"Cut! That was great, you acted very well, you're very talented!"
"Phew~ It's finally over. Am I done?" Tian Xi let out a long sigh.
I used to think it was nothing, but now I feel that acting is too torturous.
The pressure is even greater when facing so many people.
"That's enough. Didn't the director mention your talent?"
"I misheard, I didn't hear a word you said. Was that kick you just now motivated by some personal grudge?"
"What are you saying? What personal grudge do we have? If it weren't for my kick, would you have shown such genuine emotion and started cursing like that?"
"It's all your fault. You did it on purpose and made me look bad in front of so many people."
Women!
Sometimes, these are just strange creatures. They're fine when they're stressed, but once they relax, they start causing trouble.
Xu An ignored her and took the opportunity to wander around the film set.
Besides their group, other supporting actors were filming next door.
Xu An and Tian Xiwei's performance didn't reveal their attribute ball, but the supporting characters next door did.
The person who was exposed is Zhang Lei, who plays Director Pan.
His statement that "there are no early romances at Zhenhua High School" led to a large number of miscarriages.
Besides this famous quote, his acting skills are also remarkable; he exudes the demeanor of a director in every gesture.
[Roaring emote +1]
[Emotional Control +1]
The roaring expression was understandable. But the absorption of this emotion left Xu An a little confused.
What attribute is this?
After he absorbed it, he immediately had a wonderful feeling.
It seems I have a stronger control over my emotions. As soon as joy arises, I switch to calm in the next second, and then switch back to joy in a flash.
This discovery excited Xu An. He hadn't expected that the seemingly ordinary attribute value was actually a high-level attribute.
The biggest fear for actors is not being able to convey the right emotions when filming. Once you have this ability, it becomes much easier to express any emotion you want.
"Ms. Xu An, someone outside is looking for you. They say they are your agent."
The stagehand jogged up to Xu An, and his words made Xu An narrow his eyes.
Chen Hong's arrival was perfectly timed; she didn't come during the costume fitting, but only during his filming.
However, he could understand that this might not have been Chen Hong's own intention.
It's highly likely that Zhao Lei from Huayi Brothers sent her with a mission.
He increasingly felt that Huayi's ship was sinking, and he had to keep a close eye on the promising talents they had finally signed.
Although I didn't take Xu An seriously before, things are different now.
Once "The Best of Us" is released, Xu Anke will be the second male lead in the movie and the male lead in the TV series.
As long as your performance isn't too bad, having these two experiences is enough to make you very successful.
We can't let others reap the rewards at a crucial moment; Huayi won't do a losing business!
"Why are you so late?"
"Don't I need to prepare properly? After all, I'll be on set for a long time and have to deal with all sorts of things. Do you think I'm like you, only concerned with my own livelihood?"
"Why do I feel like you're implying something? Your words are sarcastic."
"You're overthinking it. I'm just stating the facts."
"Alright, come inside with me. Let's meet the director first."
"Aren't General Manager Wang and Producer Dai here?"
"How could an actor like me possibly care about such things? You can ask the director when the time comes."
Chen Hong didn't speak, but gave Xu An a meaningful glance.
Young comrade, lying is wrong!
Fortunately, Chen Hong didn't expose this secret, since Xu An is still a member of Huayi.
Her sole purpose in coming was to minimize Xu An's contact with Mr. Wang, the owner of the kiwi fruit company, and Producer Dai.
The more you come into contact with someone, the more likely things are to change.
"Hey? Xu An, is this your manager?"
Tian Xi stared at Chen Hong with her big, round eyes, as if trying to see something in her.
But Xu An felt that she couldn't see anything either. Her eyes were full of clarity yet stupidity. Could she understand anything?
"I'm his agent. Is the young lady also an actress in this production?"
"Yes, I'm the female lead in this drama. We just finished filming our scenes together."
"I didn't expect you to be so talented, young lady. Which agency are you with?"
Chen Hong's professional instincts kicked in, which made Xu An raise an eyebrow.
Good guy!
They got straight to the point, without beating around the bush.
"I don't have a company. I passed the audition and the director asked me to come and act in the movie. This is my first movie."
Chen Hong was taken aback by Tian Xiwei's words and stopped to carefully examine Tian Xiwei.
For some reason, Xu An always felt that her gaze was like that of a brothel madam eyeing an innocent young girl!
Although Tian Xiwei had short hair, her pure face and curvaceous figure still made Chen Hong's eyes flash with a glint of light.
"Sister Chen, this is my classmate, you'd better not make a move on her."
"Hey, look at what you're saying. Anyone who didn't know better would think I'm some kind of fierce monster. Your classmate is even better. If he's interested, he can come to Huayi with you."
As soon as the words of success were spoken, Tian Xiwei's lips curled up into a smile.
They seem quite interested in this proposal.
