I've already reached the top level, so I only need to gain proficiency

In the locker room.

Su Mu is being styled by the makeup artist.

After putting on the wig, he immediately had the elegance of an ancient man.

However, the character Mei Changsu is a relatively tragic character.

He was murdered when he was young, his family was ruined, but he was rescued, changed his appearance, and decided to go back for revenge.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end, Mei Changsu is in a state of old illness, wise and reserved, and does not show his heart.

"Cough...cough."

[Expression control proficiency +1]

[Behavior Imitation Proficiency +1]

[Skill Points +0.01…+0.01]

Su Mu coughed twice.

Prepare to find out how Mei Changsu is sick.

Seeing this, Fan Xiaoju quickly handed over the thermos cup, and then wondered: "Why did that Chen Yang leave just after meeting him? I thought he wanted to say something to you."

Su Mu: "I probably wanted to say something, but I just didn't say it."

Xiaoju: "So weird?"

Su Mu shook his head: "I don't know, but I feel like there is a story."

Xiao Ju: "Anyway, this time I can confirm that he really can't take pictures with a sullen face."

Su Mu: "It's not bad. In fact, I think if he's not ugly... he's quite handsome."

Xiaoju: "..."

Makeup artist: "..."

…

…

The makeup photos were taken in almost half a day.

Su Mu also took the opportunity to get to know other actors.

This drama has hired more veteran actors than last time.

After all, it is a plot about ancient intrigues, and a few main characters alone cannot support such a large scene.

Moreover, there are many vivid characters in "Nirvana in Fire". Only if these characters can stand up can the role of Mei Changsu played by Su Mu be set up.

It can be seen that although Zhang Huaimou said that time was too tight.

But in fact, the preparations were not careless at all.

afternoon,

Qian Jida successfully completed the signing.

Su Mu returned to the crew apartment with him.

Thinking about getting a good sleep before turning on the phone, you may not know how hard it will be later.

Qian Jida: "Including the remuneration for this film, you have earned almost 170 million this year. After excluding your commission, the company will keep the rest."

"How much of the agreement is left to complete?"

Su Mu leaned lazily on the sofa.

Holding the health-preserving soup soaked in angelica and wolfberry in his hand, he looked like he had a hidden disease.

[Behavior Imitation Proficiency +1]

Qian Jida looked at Su Mu, a little worried: "Are you okay? Why do you feel so weak? You didn't get sick before you turned on the phone, right?"

Su Mu shook his head: "No, don't worry, it's your fault."

Qian Jida: "Well, if we deduct the more than 100 million this year, we will have another 450 million to complete the agreed target in two years."

Su Mu thought for a while after hearing this.

In fact, if you calculate it this way, you only need to make more than 200 million a year.

This number is not difficult.

With his current traffic and acting skills, if he works a little harder in the next few years, it won't be a big problem.

After all, there are still three scripts that have not been discussed with Huayi and Penguin producers.

At that time, even if he sells a favor to Zhang Huaimou, he will not get a salary increase, but only 60 million for each drama.

That’s 1.8 small goals, done.

Plus Liu Qiangxi’s new brand endorsement.

Isn’t it irritating that the target for next year has been achieved before we even finish it?

This does not include the cost of participating in variety shows and other activities.

So Su Mu didn't panic at all.

Qian Jida: "Although you started from scratch and the company's resources were poured into it, you should also give the company feedback by fulfilling the requirements of the agreement.

However, the contract period has not yet expired, and the company should continue to spare no efforts to devote resources. It is very unfair to reduce the resources allocated to artists during the contract period in advance. "

Su Mu knew that Qian Jida might be thinking about the past again, so he comforted him: "Don't worry, Mr. Qian, I have a big heart and this is all trivial."

Qian Jida looked at Su Mu with serious eyes: "Su Mu, have you thought about the future?"

Su Mu: "In the future?"

Qian Jida: "Well, actually you should also think about it. After your contract expires, will you re-sign with the company or be an independent studio.

Of course, next time you sign a contract with the company, the revenue share will be reversed, and you will be the leader.

If you are an independent studio, you may not be able to enjoy the resources of the company, and the team will have to redo it, which may have a certain impact on future development, but the money you make is yours. "

Listen to Qian Jida's words.

Su Mu was silent for a moment.

In fact, he had already thought about this issue. If he had followed his previous plan, he would have re-signed with the company.

But that's different now.

In any industry, the longer time passes, the clearer things become.

Platform is very important.

But in the final analysis, the company only cares about profits, and there is no artist that it cannot let go of.

So no one is stronger than yourself.

Rather than being constrained by the company and forced to accept various unreasonable arrangements, it is better to have your own independent studio.

No matter how good or bad you are, it belongs to you.

However, it is too early to say this now.

At least until the contract expires.

…

Qian Jida was sent away.

Su Mu stayed alone in the room to brush up on his proficiency.

Read the script, say the lines, make expressions, release emotions, pretend to be suffering from internal injuries...

Basically, if you perform one set, you can earn a lot of proficiency.

[Skill points: 15.5]

Look at the skill points.

Su Mu felt it was time to open a blind task box.

To sum up this period of time, the rewards given by the task blind box are still cost-effective.

Su Mu: "Task blind box."

[Tip: Pay 1.0 skill points, remaining 14.5]

[The task blind box is being opened...]

[Task 1: Successfully sell the copyrights of three scripts and confirm the starring roles in the three dramas. (undone)

mission rewards:

[Talent blind box*3]

[+1000 proficiency]

[Skill Points +5.0]]

Good luck.

The first blind box has been opened.

Su Mu looked at the new mission and had some idea in his mind.

When Zhang Huaimou mentioned it before, it was only a verbal agreement, but the specific purchase and implementation had not been discussed in detail.

What Zhang Huaimou meant was that he would wait until the people from Penguin's producer arrived.

The time has not been set, but it should be within the next few days.

…

…

The next day.

The crew officially started filming.

As before, burn incense and worship and uncover the red cloth.

Then the actors got into position and began shooting the first scene.

In the first scene this time, Zhang Huaimou arranged the scene for the male protagonist Su Mu.

As we all know, it’s often the first scene.

We need to carry the banner.

According to the story line of "Langya Pavilion", the male protagonist who was killed many years ago changed his appearance and returned to Kyoto city as the son of Kirin of Langya Pavilion.

This section seems plain and simple.

But it is actually the beginning of the ‘tone’ of the whole play.

It can be said to be very important.

Because everything started with Mei Changsu.

But Mei Changsu's state of mind is another difficult point to grasp.

He returns to this familiar yet strange place with a new identity to seek revenge.

You clearly know that those relatives you care about will also be pawns on the revenge chessboard in the future, but you have to come back and do it.

It's an emotional ordeal.

A kind of determination to suppress pain and hatred, but still have to go on with difficulty.

Imagine the moment you step into the city of Kyoto with such a mood.

What kind of performance should it look like?

Is there murderous intent and anger flashing in his eyes?

No, being too angry will be noticed by others.

But ice cold?

That's not right, Mei Changsu's depressed emotions cannot be erased with time.

so,

In the first moment the camera gave him.

It needs to have that kind of looming complexity of the characters, and it also needs to allow the audience to understand everything in the male protagonist's heart at a glance.

So this opening.

How difficult it is.

Almost everyone who has read the script knows it.

Su Mu naturally knew it too.

…

now,

The shooting scene was already crowded with people.
