Chapter 124 Acting skills recognized Cao Xuan and second-rate singer (two in one)

night, pavilion

"Young Bao Qingtian" is filming a night scene here. Today's plot is roughly the fourth case [Female Ghost Murder Case]. Cui Mingcong, the son-in-law of Master Pang, committed murder. After many twists and turns, Bao Zheng found out the truth.

In order to save his son-in-law, Taishi Pang got Bao Zheng into this coercion and inducement.

Grand Master Pang, dressed in official uniform, first gave sweet dates to Bao Zheng, played by Cao Xuan, saying that the imperial examination could determine Bao Zheng to be the number one scholar, and then marry his daughter Pang Feiyan to him.

Bao Zheng became the number one scholar, and with the support of his father-in-law, his future was bright.

However, the sweet dates he offered were rejected by Bao Zheng. Master Pang took out the stick again and said that he would invalidate all Bao Zheng's imperial examination results and even kill him directly.

However, Bao Zheng was still not afraid. He looked at the last question with murderous intent in his eyes as he continued to insist on his opinion calmly and firmly.

"For Bao Zheng, reputation is not important, nor is profit. If there are court officials who ignore the law and take human life seriously, they should be killed according to the law."

"Okay, good Bao Zheng."

Taishi Pang smiled instead of being angry, but his eyes were serious. With a wave of his hand, the men next to him began to draw their swords, preparing to kill him.

At this time, there was the sound of horse hoofbeats, and the Eighth Sage King arrived at the critical moment. He and Taishi Pang fought back covertly and secretly, and rescued Bao Zheng.

Cao Xuan was in good condition during this scene. The scene of the confrontation with Taishi Pang was filmed in just two rounds. After that, Chen Daoming went through it all, finishing the work half an hour earlier than originally planned.

Chen Daoming has an event in Guangzhou tomorrow and has already asked for leave. After filming the scene, he said hello and left early.

Cao Xuan changed his clothes and took the car back to the hotel with the other actors.

These days, independent nanny vans for celebrities are still rare among film crews. They are basically equipped by big names from Hong Kong and Taiwan. Mainland actors rarely show off like this. At most, they have a private car to pick them up or a rest room on set.

Cao Xuan can afford a nanny car himself, and if he asks the crew to equip it, he can get almost the same treatment.

But he felt that there was no need to be so arrogant and achieve success. When nanny vans become more common in the future, he would be able to equip them without any delay.

People, especially celebrities, there is nothing wrong with keeping a low profile.

For example, Lao Zhao from the Northeast has to buy a private jet, which is okay. Stars are busy traveling around the world, so he is not the only one to buy a jet.

For example, Chen Daoming, who just left, has a valuable private jet.

But Lao Zhao just bought it and insisted on showing off. No matter what his purpose was, as soon as the media wrote about it, things changed and it caused quite a stir at the time.

Therefore, Cao Xuan rarely did anything special on the set. Even the special car assigned to him by the set was shared with a few actors he knew well, and his meals and accommodations were the same as those of the leading actors.

From time to time, he would buy some drinks, snacks, and the like, and feed them to the staff and extras. He didn't expect people to remember anything well, and he was satisfied if he didn't make any mistakes.

………

When we got back to the hotel, there was nothing to eat. Fortunately, Cao Xuan had some instant noodles in his room.

He found two packs of Master Kong's braised beef noodles that he endorsed. Cao Xuan was looking for a bowl when the door knocked and Hu Jing and Li Bingbing came in carrying a thermos.

"I just know that you won't have anything to eat after the night show, so Sister Bingbing and I bought the food for you in advance."

Cao Xuan opened it and saw fried rice noodles, boiled chicken and a portion of pork offal porridge. There was a thermos pot. Although it had been a long time, it had not cooled down.

"Yeah, delicious."

Cao Xuan, who was already hungry, picked up a piece of plain-cut chicken and threw it into his mouth. The skin was tender and the meat was delicious.

Seeing that he was enjoying the meal, Li Bingbing couldn't help but say something bitter to Hu Jing: "I'm so envious. We have a night show and don't even have hot water to drink."

"If you want to eat, buy it yourself."

During this time, Cao Xuan also became familiar with Li Bingbing. He rolled his eyes at her: "You and Ren Quan are paid hundreds of thousands for a movie. You don't know how to spend it. You deserve to be hungry."

Li Bingbing was choked so much that Hu Jing snickered and poured water for Cao Xuan. Cao Xuan asked where Ren Quan had gone. He was usually inseparable from Li Bingbing.

"He has a big drama tomorrow and is memorizing his lines."

Li Bingbing replied, then sat on the bed, found the remote control to turn on the TV, and tuned directly to Hui Province Channel to watch the popular "The True Colors of a Detective".

After the show aired, Hu Jing started to watch it. Not only did she watch it herself, but she also took Li Bingbing to watch it.

Then the story of Cao Xuan being beaten violently in the play spread throughout the entire "Young Man Bao Qingtian" crew...

Nowadays, as long as the two of them don't have night scenes, they stay in front of the TV to watch updates.

"Cao Xuan, is Song Laosi dead?"

Li Bingbing looked at the screen. Because Song Laosi was targeted by the police and the villain Zhou Shiwan planned to get rid of him, he couldn't help but ask Cao Xuan for spoilers.

Cao Xuan took a sip of the porridge, chewed the pork liver inside, and complained: "Read on, what's the point of reading the spoilers in advance?"

"Just tell me, I want to know too."

Hu Jing also coquettishly shook Cao Xuan's arm, and Cao Xuan immediately surrendered: "Dead, completely dead."

This typical double-standard behavior aroused great indignation from Li Bingbing. Cao Xuan calmly continued to eat chicken and ignored it.

Hu Jing suppressed her laughter and pulled Li Bingbing to sit back on the bed and continue watching the show.

Zhou Shiwan sent Luo Yang and Ma Weidong, played by Duan Long, to kill Song Laosi.

Luo Yang found Da Hei Niu to be his backup, and then rushed into the hospital with Ma Weidong.

Song Laosi was talking to his injured girlfriend. Luo Yang and Ma Weidong, dressed in black suits, appeared at the door of the ward. Without saying a word, they drew their guns and shot. Song Laosi died tragically immediately.

The two retreated calmly, took Da Hei Niu's car and drove away from the hospital.

This scene was shot at a very fast pace, especially the murder scene, which was neat and tidy. It only took two minutes from sneaking into the hospital to retreating after the murder, and it was all done in one go.

However, the focus of both Hu Jing and Hu Jing is not on the scene itself, but on the screen, the murderous thug in suit Luo Yang.

Hu Jing's starry eyes appeared and she exclaimed: "So cool and handsome."

Li Bingbing was still angry, but he had to admit: "Cao Xuan does have that kind of look."

Cao Xuan was depressed when he heard this: "Can you pay attention to my acting skills instead of just my handsome face?"

Li Bingbing: "..."

But Hu Jing was very supportive: "You are handsome and can act well. You did a great job in this scene."

Cao Xuan was happy and said with a shy face: "You know me best. We are both handsome and powerful."

"Uh-huh."

The little girl Hu Jing nodded crazily, and Li Bingbing completely broke his guard. He gave Cao Xuan a thumbs up and walked away.

"You two are a real match. I can't stand it anymore. You can play by yourself. I'll go back to my room and watch for myself."

Li Bingbing was dismissed and left. Cao Xuan had almost eaten, cleaned up, climbed on the bed and watched with Hu Jing. Hu Jing's face was a little red, but she didn't mean to stop him.

"It's really cold today."

After watching it for two minutes, Cao Xuan started to mutter. Hu Jing asked in confusion: "Are you cold? Turn on the air conditioner."

"The air conditioner in this house is broken. I just contacted the hotel yesterday and I am buying accessories. I will fix it in the next two days."

Cao Xuan told lies without blinking an eye, then stretched out the quilt and covered his legs and feet to keep warm.

After a few minutes, Cao Xuan pulled the quilt to Hu Jing's side, separated half of it, and covered Hu Jing's legs and feet.

"It's easy for your feet to get cold while sitting, so cover them up to keep them warm."

Hu Jing's face turned red when she felt the legs and feet of the two of them tightly touching each other under the quilt. She wanted to take her legs out, but Cao Xuan held them down with her legs and gave her a decent lecture.

"Don't move around, the air will blow in and it won't keep you warm."

Hu Jing did not break away, and gradually felt relieved when she saw Cao Xuan looking at the TV seriously and making no other movements.

But Hu Jing still underestimated someone's shamelessness.

After a few minutes of silence, Cao Xuan continued to tidy up the corners of the quilt, and got closer to Hu Jing little by little. When Hu Jing reacted, she was almost pulled into Cao Xuan's arms.

"Don't get so close to me."

Hu Jing pushed Cao Xuan, but Cao Xuan didn't move: "It's cold, it's warmer if you get closer."

As she spoke, Cao Xuan took her two hands directly into his: "Are your hands cold? I'll warm them for you."

Hu Jing's hand was caught, and her whole body was almost trapped in Cao Xuan's arms. She felt the warm air exhaled from Cao Xuan's mouth. Her body became a little weak and she could only barely say a word.

"There are people coming and going outside, so don't mess around."

"rest assured."

Cao Xuan looked at Hu Jing's flushed face, couldn't help but peck her, and held her in his arms: "I'll just hold her and watch TV. Don't think too much."

"Who is thinking nonsense?"

Hu Jing was shy and anxious, so Cao Xuan teased her a few more times, and finally she was bitten before she honestly begged for mercy.

But this time, Cao Xuan was not fooling people. He was really just watching TV with Hu Jing in his arms. The time and place were wrong. No matter how impatient he was, he would not act recklessly.

Of course, he also lost all the small benefits he deserved, causing Hu Jing to wear a scarf for several days...

………

When Cao Xuan and Hu Jing made breakthrough progress, "The True Colors of a Detective" also aired its finale, with impressive results.

Several satellite TV stations have already contacted the film studio, intending to win the second-round rebroadcast rights of this drama. The bids are not bad, and the film studio is very happy.

The media began to summarize the drama accordingly.

The male protagonist Wang Zhiwen performed well and vividly portrayed a criminal policeman who insists on justice. Coupled with the advantage of the subject matter, many people are optimistic that he can win another TV Award for this drama.

But the biggest surprise of this drama is Cao Xuan.

Cao Xuan had only played two roles before, Jing Wuming, a cold-faced killer, which required almost no acting skills, and Ximen Qing. Cao Xuan did a good job, but he had too few roles.

Therefore, before many people watched this drama, they came here to pick on Cao Xuan.

But after actually watching the show, everyone realized that Cao Xuan's performance was really good.

The cowardice and humiliation in the early stage, the unbearable outburst in the middle stage, the ruthlessness of becoming a killer later, the desperate struggle of being caught in the later stage, and the chilling feeling after being betrayed by the boss and being influenced by the police.

Cao Xuan interpreted the entire character of Luo Yang very well, as well as the various emotional and character transformations.

Especially Luo Yang's useless state in the early stage is far different from Cao Xuan's own situation. His performance made the audience stay put, and even made the audience feel angry when they saw him being bullied. This in itself is a manifestation of good acting skills.

In addition, Cao Xuan also performed well in several key scenes in the play.

Playing opposite several veteran actors such as Wang Zhiwen and Li Youbin, although they are not evenly matched, they have never been overpowered.

This acting skill, at least among the younger generation of actors, is worthy of some praise.

For this kind of young actors who perform well and have good potential, the media and the industry have always been encouraging, hoping that they will grow up in the future and take over the responsibilities of their predecessors.

The same is true for Cao Xuan. Although the evaluation is not as good as that in the music industry, there is still a lot of positive feedback.

At least there are no heart-wrenching words like "You should just sing, it's not for acting."

In addition to being recognized for his acting skills, Cao Xuan's appearance as a thug in a suit was also well received by the audience.

There are mostly female viewers, but there are also many male viewers.

After all, this kind of tough, cold, elegant and violent style really touches the hearts of the old men, otherwise those gangster gun fight movies in Hong Kong would not be popular for a long time.

In fact, there are quite a lot of male fans of Cao Xuan. After all, it’s not just about his looks, but his “talent” as well.

At the last fan concert in Taiwan, among the 32,000 fans, there were almost 10,000 male spectators. Not counting those accompanying girlfriends, there were also several thousand people.

This ratio is normal in the eyes of powerful singers such as Ren Xianqi, Wu Bai, and Zhao Chuan.

But for a handsome guy like Cao Xuan who is easily repulsed by the same sex, it is a pretty good achievement.

At least Cao Xuan is sure that his ratio of male fans is better than Xie Feng's. If he has 7:3, Xie Feng's ratio of 9:1 is too much.

It was an unexpected surprise for Cao Xuan that Luo Yang had a wave of male fans this time. He didn't want to be a hottie that female fans admired and boys hated.

Killing men and women, even men, women, old and young, is Cao Xuan's goal!

In any case, the broadcast of "The True Colors of a Detective" gave many viewers a certain understanding of Cao Xuan's acting skills, not just limiting him to a singer.

Many people even remembered that Cao Xuan was not a cross-border actor. He was an actor when he first debuted and worked as a group performer for two years. He only started as a singer later.

It's just that Cao Xuan's fame in the music world is so great that many people ignore Cao Xuan's background and define him as a singer rather than an actor.

Now Cao Xuan is also changing this public impression bit by bit.

Luo Yang in "The True Colors of a Detective" is just the beginning. He will work hard for Bao Zheng and Linghu Chong in the future.

In early December, a national newspaper in Guangdong Province conducted an exclusive interview with Cao Xuan on issues related to "The True Colors of a Detective."

In this exclusive interview, Cao Xuan summarized his thoughts on his current professional identities in one sentence.

A third-rate businessman, a second-rate singer, who wants to be a first-rate actor!

As soon as this report came out, countless people complained.

He's just a third-rate businessman. Cao Xuan doesn't have any commercial achievements now. It's normal to want to become a first-rate actor.

But what the hell is a second-rate singer?

Now the total sales of Cao Xuan's second album "Stars Shining" have exceeded 1.8 million, and Warner is promoting it like crazy, hoping to surpass 2 million before the end of the year.

If it is achieved, then Cao Xuan will have sold 2 million+ new albums for two consecutive years, and his total personal sales will exceed 5 million. He may once again win the annual sales championship this year, achieving two consecutive annual album sales championships.

With such horrific results and claiming to be a second-rate singer, what do you want other singers to do?

There were many disturbances from the outside world, but Cao Xuan, a second-rate singer, didn't care about it. After filming for two days, he asked for leave and went to the capital to participate in the rehearsal of this year's Spring Festival Gala.
