Chapter 40: Mr. Jiao
In early May, the breeze blows on the face and the lake ripples!
The small bridge, flowing water, and the Suzhou in others seem to be extremely destined to be with Gan Tao.
His first movie was called "Suzhou River", and his first TV series was filmed in Suzhou. Even his first song "A Smile" was recorded in Suzhou.
Now, he has come to Liuyuan in Suzhou again to play "Li Wei Become an Official".
He has very few scenes in "Li Wei", which is slightly equivalent to an extra, with no lines and few shots. Jiang Bingrou asked him to participate, perhaps just in disguise to let him earn some living expenses.
"Hey, you are old, please sit down!"
In the pavilion of Liuyuan, wearing brightly-colored eunuch uniforms, he quickly helped the old man Jiao Huang, who played Kangxi, plays Kangxi, sit down on the steps of the pavilion.
Mr. Jiao pointed to the teapot on the stone bench placed in the middle of the pavilion and said, "Xiao Taozi, pour a cup of tea."
He waved his hand and said, "Old man, the water used to make tea has not been opened, so you can't drink it. If you want to drink tea, you have to wait a while, it's burning."
The conversation between the two is not a play. The real filming has not yet begun. The whole group is waiting, from the crew of "Love Traveling Through Time and Space" in the Grand View Garden in Beijing, Xu Zheng is rushing here.
Xu Zheng is both the male lead in "Li Wei" and "Love in Love", but the positions of the two crews are from south to north. Recently, Xu Zheng has been a flying man in the air.
Mr. Jiao held his left leg on the pavilion and slapped him, asking him standing next to him, "Is the plane delayed again?"
He stretched his head and put his toes on his feet and looked at the path of the pavilion. He disappeared from Xu Zheng and replied, "It's not here yet, so it must be late."
He can sit still before the filming has started, but the costumes on his body are not allowed, the quality is too poor, and it looks gorgeous.
"Here, come."
With the shout from the staff, Xu Zheng hurried over the path leading to the pavilion while wearing a costume.
As soon as he entered the pavilion, Xu Zheng rushed to the staff and apologized to Mr. Jiao: "Teacher Jiao, I'm really embarrassed, the plane is delayed."
After saying that, he hurriedly sat down on the stone bench and asked the makeup artist to put on wigs and put on makeup.
Fortunately, his head was bare, which saved the makeup artist a lot of effort.
Gan Tao asked him: "Brother Xu, where was the filmed in "Wedding Love"?"
Xu Zheng knew what he meant and said to him: "Your role is almost here, so we can fly together in the future."
He rolled his eyes: "My scene in "Li Wei" will end soon. At most, I will stay in the capital and I will not be with you for the time being."
Xu Zheng said curiously: "The crew of "Xiao Shiyilang" has already settled in Mudu, Suzhou, don't you know?"
He couldn't help but be stunned. He really didn't know about this, and he hadn't received any notice.
In "Xiao Shiyilang", he plays Lian Chengbi, the authentic second male lead, but he should go to the door and have a relationship with the crew.
After thinking about it alone for a while, he temporarily threw away the tricks here and focused on doing what he saw first.
After Xu Zheng put on his makeup, he took the stand where the two of them were preparing to talk to each other and asked Mr. Jiao: "Mr., where is your water cup? Take advantage of this time, I will pour you a glass of water."
Mr. Jiao pointed to the pavilion not far away and said, "Hang it in that pavilion."
The crew of "Li Wei" stayed for a few days, and he was talking about Xu Zheng, but Xu Bald Head had no time to talk to him.
So he became Mr. Jiao's little follower, and he handed over tea and water for nothing. After all, the old man is old and has no assistant, so he should be able to help properly.
He twisted the thermos and returned to the pavilion. The two of them had already finished their lines. The director said to him: "Xiao Gan, when the camera comes to you later, you have to bury your head."
He put the thermos outside the camera and nodded to the director, "I know, I know, eunuch, just walk with your head down and your legs together."
The scene to be filmed is about: Li Wei pretended to be a fake relative and killed several corrupt officials. He was taken into the emperor's garden, but he could not recognize the emperor in casual clothes and bragged to Kangxi.
He plays the role of the eunuch guard beside Kangxi. At first there was no camera, and he had to wait until the emperor called him before he came out in small steps.
"Three, two, one, start."
Outside the camera, Gan Tao looked at Mr. Jiao, who looked old but seemed to have a momentum, smacked his lips.
If he asked him to say exactly what he wanted, he couldn't tell, and he felt that he was very stunning, and he felt that he was not an ordinary person when he looked at it.
But Li Wei, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't tell that this guy was just a careless guy.
Kangxi sat down on the pavilion. Li Wei turned around and found that there was no one. He sat at the emperor's feet and said, "Anyway, there will be no one here, so I will sit there too."
Li Wei picked up the lower corner of the old man's yellow robe: "Hey, your robe is good."
Mr. Jiao: "Your name is Li Wei."
Xu Zheng: "Hey, you know too."
Mr. Jiao: "They all told me that you pretended to be an imperial envoy and made a bad move in Jiangnan."
Xu Zheng got up from the ground and put his face on the side of Mr. Jiao with a proud face and said, "Have you heard about this? To be honest, if you pretend to be behind, I will not only do it for my mother. Those dogs will pay 3 million taels of silver..."
With more than three minutes of long shots, Mr. Jiao and Xu Zheng in the pavilion not only clearly express the lines, but also express their facial expressions and body movements perfectly.
Sitting on the pavilion, rubbing the back of his hands from time to time, Mr. Jiao, who seemed to be afraid of the cold, showed that Kangxi was already in a turbid and turbid year.
Xu Zheng, who was sticking to Mr. Jiao, whose eyes were rumbling around, sometimes swearing and scolding corrupt officials, told the audience that Li Wei was a city man. He was clever and clever, but also had the kindness to eliminate harm to the people.
Outside the camera, while smacking his lips again, he muttered in his heart: "Actors who are born in drama are all so powerful."
Accompanied by Mr. Jiao’s words, “Come.”
He instantly adjusted his mood. He first ran away from a trot, and when he was about to arrive at the pavilion, he turned to walking slowly, beat the eunuch and knelt in front of Mr. Jiao on one knee.
"Is the Thirteenth Prince here?"
He still buried his head, pointed his hand lightly at a place, and said sharply: "I'm waiting there."
The shots that stayed on him were very short, and he didn't think about making some extraordinary moves and adding scenes. He only played an insignificant role and had to be ungrateful. A good show was not easy.
A big shot ended, and the director said to him: "Xiao Gan, all your scenes in "Li Wei" were completed."
The investor of "Li Wei" is Hainan TV Station, and the chief producer is Jiang Bingrou. As Zhou Yi's first contracted artist, he is still well-known in the crew and has not many scenes, so many staff members are willing to sell well.
He nodded, ran out of the camera, took out the cigarettes he had prepared, and dispersed one by one: "Director, you smoke."
He handed the thermos cup beside him to Mr. Jiao and said with a smile: "Fill it up for you."
Mr. Jiao took the thermos and teased him: "As soon as you leave, I will suffer my old arms and legs."
He laughed and said, "Don't let it be young if you exercise more."
Mr. Jiao took a sip of tea and pointed at his black and white eyes with both fingers: "Tell me, you have to practice this in the future. There is nothing in your eyes. Maybe I didn't notice it, maybe it's because you are still young."
He hurriedly sat down next to Mr. Jiao: "Tell me, how do you practice this thing?"
Mr. Jiao glanced at Gan Tao, who was anxious: "Look, look at the beggars on the road, look at me, look at Xu Zheng, look at the director, look at everyone you can see. Practice, practice slowly without rush, the years will leave traces in your eyes, you lack it yourself, but you can imitate it."
He could understand what Mr. Jiao said, but he didn't know whether it was useful. He thought that he would pay more attention to the people around him in the future.
