Chapter 9 009: Two special characters
Half an hour later.
Heartbroken Wu Gang ran to Xu Ning:
"Brother Ning, Director Qiu will give you two special roles, which will take about four days to shoot, and a total of 1,000 yuan. What do you think?"
"Two special appointments... Brother Gang, thank you very much. Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together!"
Wu Gang showed a proud smile on his face and patted Xu Ning's shoulder: "It's a joke, I'll invite a few friends to join us tonight and we'll sing a song after dinner."
Well... 1,000 yuan is definitely not enough.
Wu Gang is quite good at spending money for himself.
Although Xu Ning doesn't have much money, he is still willing to spend this little money. After all, it is not easy to get two special contracts.
But Wu Gang has to be careful. Even if he treats me very well now, he may be betrayed by him one day.
He usually yells at extras and deducts their wages, just for trivial matters... When listening to the speeches of other groups, Wu Gang often behaves in unspoken ways.
"Hey, can you do whatever you want with a little power? When can I personally experience and criticize this kind of behavior?"
…
Not long after, Assistant Director Liu called Xu Ning over and prepared to talk to him about the play.
"There are two main things to pay attention to in this morning scene. The first one is drinking with both feet on the wine jar."
"The second one is to stand on a rotating log. Depending on your skills, it should be no problem. Here is the script for you to take a look at."
After taking over the script and reading it carefully, I found that this character didn't have many lines, but there were still dozens of seconds of footage. Xu Ning was quite satisfied.
After the play was finished, the costumes were changed and the actors took their places.
The record is drawn and filming begins.
The story of "The Drunken Man" takes place in the Ming Dynasty.
The background is the story of Zhu Yunwen's two sons, Wentian and Chu Wanxin, who fell in love with each other and killed each other because of the death of Zhu Dijing.
The scene we are about to shoot is quite simple.
Wentian, played by Zhao Wenzhuo, goes shopping with a little beauty. Under the shady tricks of the supporting characters, he participates in the Drinking King Competition and wins the title of Drinking King.
In the original play, the person who fought Wentian until the end was an older, ordinary-looking special actor, but now the director decided that Xu Ning would play the role.
Not for anything else, just because Xu Ning is more handsome and more elegant than that person.
For this reason, the director also changed the character's name to better suit Xu Ning's temperament.
Shooting the first scene.
The boss lady came on stage to introduce the rules of this drinking king competition, and then called the participants of this competition one by one.
"Today, those participating in the Wine King Competition are Feng Ying, Drunkard, Drunken Master... and You."
Xu Ning plays Feng Ying, a suave scholar who loves drinking, reciting poetry and painting.
He is more than a hundred times more handsome than Feng Da in the original drama.
When Xu Ning was filming there, she really wanted to complain about the casting choice, because among the four people participating in the Wine King Competition, there was a character named Jiu Xian...
Listening to his name, I would definitely think that he is suave and elegant, but this person looks... really careless.
Even Wang Baoqiang's acting was much better than him.
I stood in the audience and acted as a shield for the crowd. When I saw the wine master appeared on the stage, I almost fainted and couldn't help but complain:
"This guy is even uglier than me and can play a special role. Is he the director's brother-in-law?"
…
After the boss lady introduced the rules of the Drinking King Competition.
The four contestants jumped onto the stage one after another with their most handsome moves, and then stood on two wine jars filled with water to drink.
Zui Xian took a sip, his cheeks turned red and he fainted.
Then came the drunkard monk, who also began to be unable to hold on.
The monk stabbed his chest hard with a silver needle in an attempt to stay awake, but fell to the ground and fainted.
In the end, only Feng Ying, played by Xu Ning, and Wentian, played by Zhao Wenzhuo, were left standing on the stage.
The method of competition was also changed to standing on a wooden stick with a width of only 20 centimeters to fight for wine.
The two of them flew around on the stick with the help of Wia, with the purpose of grabbing the wine in the middle of the stick.
The final result can be imagined, the protagonist Wentian won the first place.
Here, the shooting ends.
Xu Ning's role today is over. Tomorrow he will play the role of a martial arts master.
Baoqiang, on the other hand, continued to act as a tool in front of the camera.
Xu Ning had nothing to do, so he found a shady place to sit down.
His eyes fell on several female leads.
Xu Ning had heard of Yang Gongru in his previous life, but it wasn't good news...
The news said that when she had dinner with a wealthy businessman on Hong Kong Island in 2002, she was slapped in the face by her wealthy wife.
Xu Ning didn't know what happened specifically, but he also knew this person because of this incident.
Christine Yang was able to win the Miss Asia title because she still had good conditions and strength. She was the dream goddess of many men back then.
At this time, she was acting opposite Zhao Wenzhuo. It was the time when she should be concentrating, but she looked in the direction of Xu Ning from time to time.
Xu Ning bared his teeth and smiled, making Yang Gongru lean forward and back.
It has been so many days since I was reborn.
Except for seeing the gorgeous Maggie Cheung in Zhao Wenzhuo's dream and seeing a bikini beauty in Xiao Te's dream, he has never had close contact with other women.
In this aspect, Xu Ning felt that his performance was a bit unexpected and too restrained.
Maybe it's the desire for success that temporarily suppresses the fantasy of beautiful women.
After all, if you are successful, you will be more favored by beautiful women, but if you are not successful, no matter how handsome you are, you can only be the pretty girl of a rich woman.
It was precisely because Xu Ning realized this that he deliberately did not focus on women.
But today, I may have to break my precept.
Yang Gongru's charming eyes were a bit sinful, so she had to give her some color.
But everyone is filming and no one is sleeping.
Let’s talk later.
So Xu Ning started playing Luohan Boxing and Xingyi Boxing on the sidelines. After more than an hour, the attributes of the two boxing techniques were improved to varying degrees.
[Xingyi Liuhe Quan+0.2]
[Shaolin Luohan Fist +0.1]
Without the help of the system, it would have been impossible to reach this point in such a short period of time.
Many people have practiced since they were young and have been practicing for more than ten years, but none of them are as good as Xu Ning.
However, today's boxing techniques are only [proficient level] and are far from being effective in actual combat.
"I wonder what it will be like at the end of practice?"
"I'm curious, can it be used in actual combat?"
If he continues to improve at this pace, Xu Ning feels that actual combat is not impossible.
If the artillery punch in Xingyi Quan is used to its extreme, one punch can stop a person's heart without the need for a second punch.
Xu Ning was even more looking forward to this.
After practicing the boxing skills, the crew also called it a day.
After lunch, the protagonists all returned to the hotel to rest.
Xu Ning stayed on the set to wait for Bao Qiang, planning to talk to Director Liu in the afternoon and play a supporting role.
No matter how small a fly is, it is still meat, and 20 yuan is enough for his food for a few days.
…
On the other side, Yang Gongru had just returned to the hotel and took off her clothes to take a shower. Suddenly her vision went dark and she fell on the bed, naked.
Damn Xu Ning, he actually entered Yang Gongru's dream at this time.
In the dream, Xu Ning hid in the distance and watched secretly.
