This actor needs more money

After chatting with Gao Yuanyuan for a while, Ding Xiu went to buy her a midnight snack. On the way, he bought a down jacket. He cut off the tag, put it on and went out.

By the time these students finished their performance, it was already close to twelve o'clock in the evening.

The next day, Tong Dawei announced the scores based on everyone's performance.

The top eight will get the chance to make a movie with their mentors.

Of course, the so-called "movie" is actually a short film. The program team provides funds and venues, and everyone copies a classic clip.

It is completely confusing to the audience and students.

But they can't help but like it.

Being able to collaborate with so many big names all at once, even if it is a short film, there are many people who are willing to do it. It would be best if we can get a female lead with a lot of appearances.

At this time, it was Ding Xiu's turn to speak: "The name of the movie we are going to film is Westward Journey. I believe everyone has heard of it and seen it."

"I am the director this time, and Mr. Huang Zhizhong serves as my deputy."

"Next, I will allocate roles reasonably based on everyone's image, acting skills, and age."

It was impossible for the program team to hire a camera crew just for a short film. Ding Xiu had experience in directing, so they simply let him work.

When Huang Zhizhong became an assistant director, he didn't want to act with students at all, so he found an easy job.

Having been together for a month, he knew the level of these people very well.

I have absolutely no interest in acting opposite them, it simply lowers my level.

"How about Mr. Tong playing Tang Monk?" Ding Xiu asked with a smile.

"no problem."

Without hesitation, Tong Dawei agreed.

In Westward Journey, everyone knows that the protagonist is Sun Wukong. His role as Tang Monk is not many, but he is quiet.

If he was given a whole bunch of scenes, he wouldn't want to, because that would be a different price.

Unlike students, he does not lack this exposure.

"Gao Mingrun plays Zhizunbao."

"Okay, Teacher Ding, I promise to complete the task."

After getting the male lead, a junior boy from Nortel nodded excitedly.

"Reba, you play Zixia."

"Thank you, Teacher Ding."

Although Ding Xiu does not need to be exposed, his own artists do. Those who are near the water should get the moon first, and the benefits should be given to his own people first.

"Shao Mingming, you play Monk Sha."

"receive."

"Yuan Yuxuan, the white-bone spirit."

"receive."

"Gao Yuanyuan, Mrs. Niu."

"OK."

"Yuan Shanshan, Spring Thirty Mother."

As Ding Xiu read the names one by one, the number of characters became fewer and fewer.

There are eight students, plus a few mentors. The roles are a bit tense to begin with. In addition, there are more girls than boys on the scene, so it is inevitable that there will be backlash.

No, Song Yanfei is in trouble.

"Song Yanfei, Zhu Bajie."

Song Yanfei was dumbfounded. Why was she bad at playing Zhu Bajie? Why should she be such a bully?

Ding Xiu saw what she was thinking and explained: "There are so many girls, there must be someone who will backtrack. Don't underestimate this role, it is very challenging."

"After you've finished your acting, maybe a director will find you specifically to film the movie."

The reverse role is a very difficult role. Although it is not as popular as the protagonist, it is still very good when done well.

It is a test of an actor's shaping ability and acting skills.

After hearing what Ding Xiu said, Song Yanfei nodded and agreed, thinking that this was indeed the case.

Xu Xian in White Snake is a cross-dresser, and his performance is also very classic. He should be good at it.

Go back and create a different Zhu Bajie to surprise everyone.

After assigning the roles, Ding Xiu asked the staff to give them the script.

The shooting time is set at seven o'clock in the evening.

As for the duration, I only filmed the part where Zixia and the Bull Demon King got married and the Supreme Treasure came to save people on colorful auspicious clouds.

Otherwise, if we really had to copy the entire film, we wouldn't be able to finish filming in two months.

During the day, the students memorized lines and practiced fighting scenes. Song Yanfei even wrote a 5,000-word biography of Zhu Bajie.

Bajie’s past and present life, Daddy Pig, Mummy Pig, etc., as well as his love story after becoming a cultivator.

In the afternoon, after dinner, I started putting on makeup.

The staff distributed costumes, all of which were brand new and clean.

Reba, who plays Zixia, is dressed in ancient costume and holding a sword. She does look a bit out of the world.

"Reba, you are so beautiful. From now on, you can specialize in the costume market. You can play fairy tales, martial arts, whatever you want."

"Harm, I always listen to the company."

Why do you need them to tell you that you look good in ancient costume? When she first joined the company, the company had already positioned her in the market.

The development plan for the next two to three years has also been set.

"Ah, I don't want this."

Not far away, Song Yanfei saw that her costume was a loose robe, a pig's nose, and pig's ears, and she suddenly became unhappy.

Thanks to her writing so many biographies, she has countless handsome boy Zhu Bajie in her mind.

The result is a pig head and ears.

With this outfit, the Queen of England won’t be able to stop shouting when she comes.

How could she, a girl, wear such a prop? It would make people laugh to death.

"This is the prop, and there's nothing we can do about it. Why don't you go discuss it with the director?"

The makeup artist had no choice but to push the problem to Ding Xiu.

Song Yanfei has the ability to go to Ding Xiu, but if she doesn't, she should just wear it.

"I don't care, I won't wear it, it's too ugly."

Song Yanfei didn't care about this, she wouldn't wear it either dead or alive.

How dare she go to Ding Xiu? That would be to scold her, but it was impossible for her to wear it. She could only cry out for herself in this way.

Everyone around her was either handsome or beautiful, but she was a pig, and she refused to accept it.

"Classmate, it's hard for me to do this."

"If it's hard to do, just don't do it. I'm not forcing you."

"you……"

The makeup artist was so angry that she didn't want to argue because the problem couldn't be solved.

But she's not someone to be trifled with either.

You, Song Yanfei, aren't you blaming me? I'll let you quarrel as much as you want. If you don't want to wear it, don't wear it. I won't urge you, let alone report it.

Wait for Ding Xiu to come later. I'm about to turn on the phone and find you like this. If you don't cooperate again, let's see who is unlucky.

Song Yan was very proud when she saw the makeup artist giving in.

More than half an hour later, Ding Xiu arrived. He originally planned to let everyone go through the rehearsal first and revise any improvements in advance.

If not, when the time comes, just follow the script and shoot.

But when I glanced around, I saw Song Yanfei without a pig nose and pig ears.

"Song Yanfei, what's going on with you? Why don't you put on makeup?"

"I don't want to change, it's too ugly."

Ding Xiu frowned: "Then what do you want?"

"I think……"

Before Song Yanfei finished speaking, Ding Xiu interrupted her: "How about you be the director and write the lines? You can act whatever you want. Do you think this is your home?"

The sudden change shocked everyone and they didn't dare to say anything. Song Yanfei was also frightened and said aggrievedly: "But that pig head is ugly, no girl wears that."

Ding Xiu laughed angrily: "There are only small actors and no small roles. All the knowledge you have learned has gone into the dog's belly?"

"I just want the character to be better, is that wrong?"

"You have no right to choose!"

"But I have the right to refuse."

Song Yanfei, who had lost her temper, completely let herself go, even daring to confront Ding Xiu. In a few days, she might not be able to see him again, and she was not afraid of Ding Xiu.

"Okay, it's your right to refuse. You can go."

Ding Xiu was not angry because what Song Yanfei said was right. Actors have no right to choose, but they can refuse.

In the entertainment industry, there are many roles that you can't play if you want to, but when faced with the role that falls on you, everyone has the right to refuse.

As long as you can afford the cost.

After debuting, the price of rejection may be no filming in the next few years.

Like Song Yanfei's current situation, the price is just that the show will not be recorded that night.

"Just leave, do you think I care about you?" Song Yanfei took off her costume and yelled at Ding Xiu: "You are pretending to be a public servant for personal gain, it's unfair!"

She was talking about Reba.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Ding Xiu takes good care of Reba. Not only Ding Xiu, but also several instructors take care of her.

He is always cheerful and patient while studying.

When grading, the scores are always high.

Everyone knows that everything is because of Ding Xiu. Ding Xiu is an artist under Ding Xiu, and everyone gives her face.

Including this casting, everyone knew before it started that the female lead would definitely be Reba.

But all this time, no one dared to pierce this layer of window paper.

"No!" Ding Xiu waved his hand.

Let go of the need to help others and respect the fate of others.

Song Yan insisted on going on strike, but he didn't force her and just left. It wouldn't affect her at all.

As for being partial, he was indeed partial, and he admitted that.

so what?

I don’t favor my own artists, so why should I favor you?

We are not related to each other.

Moreover, Reba's business ability is not bad, she is indeed the best among this group of people.

Even if there is no favoritism, she can still stand out from the crowd.

Besides, where is this? They have never seen what a real back door is, if this is not a recording program, but real social life.

Before joining the group, Ding Xiu had already decided that Reba would be number one.

Others have no chance of competing.

…

The temporary absence of a character did not affect the plot at all, so Ding Xiu immediately called everyone to start rehearsals.

Song Yanfei sat angrily watching everyone's performance without saying a word.

After being taught a lesson by Ding Xiu, other students came over to comfort her, and she felt much better.

She planned to get off the slope and change the story if a mentor would come over to persuade her later.

But more than ten minutes passed, and no instructor came.

In fact, under normal circumstances, several instructors might come over to persuade her, but today was an exception.

Because she made a big mistake.

If the character is ugly, don't play it. No one will like this kind of person no matter where he is.

God knows how many horses are galloping past Huang Zhizhong, Tong Dawei and others in their hearts. If they were outside, they would have cursed people long ago.

It would only be worse than Ding Xiu's scolding.

To put it bluntly, she doesn't deserve to be an actress. ,

After a while, Ding Xiu finished the rehearsal, picked up the loudspeaker and said, "Song Yanfei."

"arrive!"

Song Yanfei stood up happily. She had already decided that Pig Tou would also act.

I was a little hot-blooded before, but after I calmed down, I was filled with fear and regret. Why did I offend Ding Xiu for no reason?

The reason is still so irrational, maybe the audience will also scold her.

Not a good deal.

Everyone at the scene had work to do, but she didn't, which seemed awkward. A pig's head is a pig's head. She still had to integrate into the team and just treat it as a joke.

"Didn't you leave? Why are you standing there?" Ding Xiu said in a cold tone: "The filming will start soon. The staff will clear the scene. Please leave immediately if there is no relevant person. Don't affect us."

Song Yanfei was stunned.

It turned out that he was not asking her to go back, but asking her to get away.

She had never experienced such humiliation since she was a child. She felt so sad that for a moment, tears burst out of her eyes, and she turned around and ran away.

"Stop looking and focus on shooting."

Ding Xiu's words will attract everyone's attention.

The program team would not let anything happen to Song Yanfei. He saw that there were already staff following him.

There were only two scenes shot here in Westward Journey, which took less than four hours.

Before twelve o'clock in the evening, the crew finished work.

While everyone was queuing up to get on the bus, Song Yanfei came back and was persuaded by the staff to come back.

On the bus, she apologized to Ding Xiu.

"I'm sorry, Teacher Ding. I was wrong. I shouldn't have been willful..."

"You don't need to apologize to me, and I didn't blame you, because you have already paid for your mistake."

"Now that Westward Journey is finished filming, I can't possibly do it again for you."

"Find an empty seat and sit down. Let's go back."

Tonight, Song Yanfei was not in the frame, which meant that one scene was missing. This is no one else’s fault.

The next day, the program team edited the film overnight for everyone to watch, and selected a best actress and best actor.

Ding Xiu gave the best actress to Reba, and the program team also awarded her a statuette.

Even though she knew it was fake, Reba was still happy. This was her first time winning an award, and she hoped she could really win the Best Actress next time.

All of a sudden, I was full of longing for the future.

The crew returned to Nortel, and the program crew asked several students to prepare for the graduation party.

Some people sang, some acted in sketches, some gave talk shows, and some imitated Ding Xiu. The atmosphere was extremely cheerful.

At the graduation party, several tutors came on stage to speak to everyone one by one.

What Yuan Shanshan said was that she was very happy to meet them. We will all be good friends from now on, and she looks forward to them contacting her.

Tong Dawei and Ding Xiu rolled their eyes.

The two also secretly made a bet that after tonight, Yuan Shanshan would delete several people's WeChat messages.

When it was Ding Xiu's turn, Ding Xiu only said two sentences.

"Be a good person before doing anything. If you are not good at acting, you can learn from it. If you are not good at character, you will be ruined in this life."

"When you debut in the future, remember to abide by the rules and laws. If you break the rules, don't say you know me."

Be a good person before doing anything, and obey the laws and regulations.

Ding Xiu's speech made Huang Zhizhong and Tong Dawei dumbfounded.

But I have to admit, what he said makes sense.
