It is another plum rainy season. The sky is gloomy and drizzling outside.

In the dim restaurant, Gan Tao and the other two were silently reading a script of their own.

Compared to Lou Ye, who likes to shoot inexplicable emotions, Jia Zhangke, who likes to shoot a corner of the city and a story of a small person, and Wang Shuai, who likes to shoot the times, he uses the machines in his hands to record the current living conditions of the people.

Therefore, the script of "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" is filled with a large number of all kinds of Beijing alleys.

Xiaogui and Xiaojian in the script are just two representatives among the thousands of ordinary people.

What they are about to interpret is the life in the capital in 1999, which is a conflict between a large number of migrant workers and locals after entering the city.

The script of "Suzhou River" once made him confused, but the script of "Seventeen-year-old Bicycle" is easy to understand. Gan Tao only read it once and knew what the director was talking about.

Of course, he understood the story in the script. As for the conflicts and conflicts caused by the changes of the times, the director wanted to reflect have nothing to do with him.

His job is an actor, not a politician. All the contradictions in society should be left to politicians to deal with, and it has nothing to do with him, a young actor who is in danger.

He just wanted to earn ten thousand yuan honestly, and this salary was no less than the living expenses given to him by Zhou Yi.

The three people who read the script all had different expressions. Gan Tao was as usual, with a faint expression, while Li Bing and Gao Yuanyuan frowned, looking at the situation, they wanted to dig deep into the mystery in the script.

Wang Shuai shouted at the right time: "You can just read it once, and then prepare for dinner."

The restaurant is exquisite, but the dishes are ordinary.

Maybe it’s because of the current restaurants that don’t understand the importance of packaging. Various large bowls of dishes were served in separate pieces, and several people started to turn on their chopsticks.

Talk about things at the dining table is a national characteristic. After a few people took the chopsticks, Wang Shuai took the lead: "Yunyuan, you are playing a female student, you want to have a hairstyle for international students."

Gao Yuanyuan next to Gan Tao grabbed a small vegetable from a big bowl: "I'll cut a student's head in the past two days."

She was able to star in this movie because her high school appearance was too stunning. Including this time, she has played the role of a high school for the second time, and the requirement of cutting her hair has long been ignored.

Wang Shuai nodded and reminded Gan Tao again, "Xiao Gan, you have to control your weight, Li Bing's image is just right."

Gan Tao replied: "If you know, you will lose weight when you go back!"

Gao Yuanyuan said in surprise: "If you want to lose weight, do you still eat so much?"

He laughed: "I always think that losing weight has nothing to do with how much you eat. Green weight loss is the right way."

Several people looked at him ignorantly: "What is green weight loss?"

He explained vaguely: "Try to lose weight by exercise, do not diet, and do not take weight loss pills randomly."

As for whether it is right, he doesn't know whether it is right. He just talked about green weight loss because he said he was bald.

Director Wang Shuai is the oldest and has enough life experience. After listening to his words, he nodded thoughtfully and said, "This is a good point. Dieting is indeed harmful to health and violating the laws of natural growth is not a good thing!"

The director also agreed. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Gao Yuanyuan's big eyes and smiled, "So, if you don't eat enough, you can't lose weight. If you want to lose weight, you have to eat more, let alone we are all older than you."

Gao Yuanyuan asked him: "Which year did you?"

He said: "Once up in 1982."

Wang Shuai said: "You three are the largest in the garden. In 1979, Xiao Gan and Xiao Li both have been in 1982."

Gao Yuanyuan said: "He looks mature."

Gan Tao really wanted to remind her not to say that I am mature in front of the director.

Xiaogui in the play is at the age of a high school student. Although he entered society early, he is inevitably a boy. Don’t let the director change actors in the middle.

The four of them spent two hours to finish lunch while eating. Wang Shuai went to the checkout stall, Gan Tao and Gao Yuanyuan, and Li Bing asked for the communication number.

He is about to return to Haishi, hoping that these two locals can inform the crew of relevant information in a timely manner. He is both an actor in the crew and is at an average age, so he can speak better.

Li Bing was as reserved as he was at the dinner table: "I don't have a phone call yet."

He asked, "Where is the pager number?"

Li Bing shook his head, Gao Yuanyuan next to him took out his flip phone from his bag: "Remember me."

What he really wanted to remember was Li Bing's number. After all, they were all male. But he didn't expect that Li Bing in reality was just like Xiao Jian in the play, who was a real high school student and had not yet independent in life.

After writing down Gao Yuanyuan's number, he started to buy a mobile phone and asked Gao Yuanyuan: "How much does this mobile phone cost now?"

Gao Yuanyuan replied: "I bought it before the New Year for more than 7,000, but now it's not much."

He shrank his head when he heard this. He played the role of Xiaogui. Jiang Bingrou talked about the salary of 10,000 yuan, and the company commission was deducted. He spent two or three months shooting a drama and could only buy such a mobile phone.

He smiled at Gao Yuanyuan and said, "You are so rich!"

When Gao Yuanyuan was in high school, when he went to Wangfujing to buy books with his classmates, he was discovered by the legendary star scout and then made his debut as an advertising model.

Although he has acted in movies, he has no reputation because he is an independent movie, but he is a favorite of advertising companies.

Gao Yuanyuan reminded him: "You can ask the company to help you pick up advertisements and provide the shopping mall platform."

He himself has this intention, but shooting advertisements is not something that can be sold on the door like movies.

Advertisers prefer celebrities who are famous and in line with their product image, handsome men and beautiful women.

He has no fame.

As for the product image, no one has so far found it, so it probably doesn't fit.

Zhou Yi was established for a short time, and the filming of "Qinghe Love" and "Wu Lin Wai Shi" were not very popular, and the other was not released yet, and the influence in the market was still very small.

He guessed that Jiang Bingrou had no tricks in this regard or had not been exposed to this matter, and the company had never taken over this work for him anyway.

The four of them walked out of the restaurant. Wang Shuai returned to the crew who was doing the preliminary preparations. Li Bing, who was not talking much, rode the mountain bike home, while Gao Yuanyuan cut his head.

He thought about it and decided to go back to Haishi. He had one month left before joining the group, so it would cost money to stay here every day.

When Wang Shuai heard that he was going back, he frowned and said unhappy: "What are you going back? Just stay here, stroll around the alleys in the capital, and find the feeling. When filming "Suzhou River", didn't Lou Ye ask you to experience the life in the play?"

He thought about it and didn't even call him. Lou Ye was just a poor crew. He hurriedly gathered dozens of people and started filming directly. He didn't tell him to experience life in the play in advance.

In the end, he chose to stay in this strange city and experience life in the play. The book of Hengtong School once mentioned it, but he never thought that it would come so quickly.

May and June.

During the day in the capital, there are more hanging slippers in alleys, and young men with a short hair are left. Sometimes there are girls around them with beautiful faces and students' heads.

At night, there is a scene of a boy running. The unlocker not far from the hotel is puzzled and has always heard of morning jogging.

But the boy in front of him always started running in front of his stall in the evening, and then came back sweating when it was dark.

Not two days after joining the group, he was preparing to visit the alley for the last time. In front of a very grand courtyard, an old man teased him: "Xiao Gan, are you here to experience life again?"

The old man's surname is Guan, and there is very few surnames. Unlike the people in the alley who treat him as a thief, this old man is the first person to stand at the door of his house to talk to him.

Because the old man is also a famous actor, he uses more respectful words to describe him as an artist. In the old man's own words, he is a person who relies on his skills to make a living.

After sitting down on the stone bench under the pine tree, he chuckled at the old man: "You are in a good mood, it seems that there is a happy event."

The old man raised his white eyebrows and said disapprovingly: "What kind of happy events are you not happy? It's the granddaughter who is here."

Old Man Guan said it plainly, but the joy of being acquainted with his relatives is superficial.

"Wait here, I'll go back to get the chess."

After the old man finished speaking, he walked slowly towards the door of his house with his hands behind his back.

They played chess, but the old man favored Go more, but Gan Tao didn't. As lunch time approached, no one was with him, so he could only give in a little.

Along with the chess, there was a little girl following Old Man Guan, wearing braids and floral shorts, who should be the old man's granddaughter.

He squatted down and showed a kind smile: "Little guy, how old are you?"

The child didn't recognize the child's child, and his mouth was extremely clear. He stared at his two round eyes and said crisply: "I'm three years old this year."

He praised the old man: "This kid is smart!"

Old Man Guan was serious: "I'm still inferior to you. I can play the leading role in the movie at the age of 18!"

While posing as chess, he replied, "Okay, don't tease me. With you, how can this kid be missing?"

In the Qing Dynasty, the old man was a royal relative. Even now, the Guan family had countless connections in the capital. If the little girl entered this circle in the future, the resources would not be very good.

The old man ignored him and raised his hand to support him.

The battle on the chessboard just entered the daytime, and the girl on Old Man Guan’s legs lost her patience and shouted: “Grandpa, I want to eat ice cream.”

He asked at the right time: "It's like this today, no victory or defeat?"

The two of them had no desire to win and lost. They were completely useless to play chess. The granddaughter urged her to hurry up. Old Man Guan stopped at the right time and said, "Success, let's go here and have dinner at home?"

He shook his head like a rattle: "If you don't go, if you don't go, you will definitely have many rules at home, and I'm still more comfortable alone."

The relationship between the two is only a little better than that of passers-by, and they cannot get to eat at home.

Old Man Guan nodded and said, "Okay, let's go out together, I have to buy ice cream for the little guy."

He opened his hand to the child in the old man's arms: "Come on, uncle, come and hug you, there is a way, don't tired of your grandpa."

After leaving the alley, the old man slapped his head and forgot to bring the money. Gan Tao, who had been careless with the little guy in his arms, helped him pay the ice cream before leaving.

At this point, Gan Tao's first experience career has ended. Apart from being able to speak a few decent Beijing dialects, he lost a little, and it seemed that nothing had changed.
Chapter completed!
