I am a leader in the entertainment industry

Chapter 155: A Stunning Beginning

Beijing, Huairou Film and Television City

A film crew

At 7:30 in the evening, when the last shot was finished, the director finally picked up the megaphone and shouted,”That’s it for today, everyone go and have a good rest, tomorrow morning at 6:30, I don’t want to see anyone late!”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially the actors

Liu Yijun’s afternoon scenes were finished at about six o’clock, but after removing his makeup, he did not leave. Instead, he followed a group of stagehands to help with the work, just like a crew member, helping to move things, tidy up and put things away.

He is already in his forties. As an actor who has been in the industry for more than ten years, he still worries about whether he can get a role.

Last year, he filmed”The Legend of the New White Snake”, and he played the role of Li Gongfu, the brother-in-law of the male protagonist Xu Xian. For him, this is already a very good role, with many scenes and a good portrayal of the character. With this experience as the male second, it will definitely have a great impact on his next acting opportunities.

But it didn’t work.

After all, Li Qi is a new director and has not yet been recognized by his peers in the director circle. The Legend of the New White Snake has not been broadcast yet after filming. Therefore, Liu Yijun is still the actor who used to beg for roles everywhere, was not favored by others, and only existed in the eyes of the audience.

Of course, he stayed in the crew of”The Legend of the New White Snake” for two or three months. Other actors came and went, but he, as the second male lead, was almost with them from beginning to end. Therefore, he got to know many well-known people in the circle in the crew, which was also a big advantage for him.

Although they only knew each other through one play, Zhang Yan, who played his wife in Legend of White Snake, introduced him to a role not long ago. It was a male No. 6 or No. 7 role in a 40-episode costume drama with a total of more than 10 episodes. Well, he thought he was the male No. 6.

Liu Yijun is a professional and experienced actor. Although this role doesn’t have many scenes and he thinks it really has no value, he still cherishes it. After joining the crew, he carefully studied the play and tried to make every shot of his as best as possible. It is really hard for anyone, whether it is the director or the actors in the same crew, to dislike such a person.

Because of this, Zhang Yan, who worked with him on the Legend of White Snake, also became good friends with him.

Zhang Yan’s crew heard that an actor in this group could not come at the last minute, so when they asked for the requirements, they thought of him first!

He had only been here for more than ten days, and he had not shot many scenes in total.

He was often asked to do two scenes when needed according to the shooting order of the main characters, and then he was not needed.

As an actor with no fame, he could only wait.

But in these ten days, everyone in the crew, especially the assistant director and production staff, became close friends with him.

The director called for the end, and the actors hurried to remove their makeup. The crew members were busy packing up, and Liu Yijun was still busy following them. Only after everything was done did he take the car back to the hotel with everyone else.

When he got off the car at the hotel, an actor from the same crew greeted him,”Teacher Liu, let’s drink together later.””

Normally, even though Liu Yijun didn’t like wine and didn’t drink much, he didn’t refuse. He just sat with everyone and listened to their chats. But today, he shook his head abnormally and said,”No, you guys drink, I want to watch TV tonight.””

Someone said:”What’s there to watch on TV? It would be great if we could go out and have a barbecue and drink beer together!”

At this time, Zhang Yan also got off the car. Hearing this, she smiled and said,”Not only does Teacher Liu want to watch it, I want to watch TV too. Today is the day our last play starts airing!” After that, she smiled and said,”Teacher Liu, I asked my assistant to order food early. Come to my room and watch it together.””

Liu Yijun thought about it after hearing this, and nodded,”Okay, then thank you, Teacher Zhang Yan.” (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Someone nearby was puzzled and asked,”Teacher Liu, what was the name of the TV series you filmed before?””

Liu Yijun replied:”It’s called The Legend of White Snake”

Many people nearby said”Oh”, and someone laughed and said,”Second Master is a director!”

Many people laughed as they talked. Although no one said anything, anyone with a discerning eye could see that although these people had heard of this TV series a long time ago, it seemed that no one really took it seriously.

However, it was made clear that Zhang Yan and Liu Yijun both had roles in the drama, so naturally no one would make this too obvious. At this time, the actor even smiled and said,”Teacher Zhang Yan, Teacher Liu, I wish your TV series will be a big hit!”[]

Everyone heard this and followed with laughter and blessings.

Zhang Yan is a veteran with many years of experience. He chatted with everyone and then followed Liu Yijun into the hotel elevator.

They went to Zhang Yan’s room together. Of course, their assistants came with them. Before opening the door, Zhang Yan looked at the clock and muttered,”453, it’s eight o’clock. I guess I’m a little late.” But when they entered the room and turned on the TV to find Blueberry TV, the prologue was not over yet.

Zhang Yan asked Liu Yijun to sit down first, while she took a change of clothes and prepared to take a shower. But as she was talking, before she could even go to the bathroom, the prologue was over.

Liu Yijun was still sighing,”The opening song is quite nice!”

Zhang Yan laughed and said”yes”, then his eyes subconsciously fell on the TV screen and his hands stopped moving.

A giant white python is swimming among the green mountains and clear waters. The picture is very beautiful. The giant python looks very vivid and does not look fake at all.

Although the TV in the hotel room is still a relatively old-fashioned 29-inch color TV with a thick body, it must be said that although the signal transmission stage and the TV’s resolution ability greatly limit the realism of the TV picture, the difference in the clarity of the source film is finally transmitted to the TV sets of thousands of households, and there is still a difference.

Moreover, for a TV series with such exquisite pictures as The Legend of White Snake, this difference will even be very obvious.
