Actors have no vacation

Chapter 155 Premiere
Golden Week in October is a seven-day long holiday without discount.

On the streets of Beijing, adults and children are enjoying the suitable outdoor temperature in autumn.

Wu Yan looked at the street scene of the capital outside the car window, and returned to the sad place, even the joy of the holiday was diminished.

"Why do you look so unhappy?" A camera from the side came closer.

Wu Yan turned his head slightly, glanced at Director Zhou behind the camera, threw his eyes back out of the window, and said sullenly: "I always feel like I missed the appointment."

Director Zhou quickly looked at his watch, "The premiere is still very early. The capital road is not blocked."

I don't understand why I missed the appointment.

"I made an appointment with my elder brother before. When his first film is screened nationwide, I will go to his premiere; when I enter the national competition for the first time, he will come to my debut. The result... Alas~" Wu Yan looked up to the sky and sighed.

Two months ago, Wu Yan's school football team entered the national competition.

As the only one in the school team who entered the first team in the second grade, Wu Yan believed in the coach's vision, and also believed in his own talent.During the regional competition, he showed his talent almost recklessly. With his speed and skills, he helped the team score one goal after another, and finally squeezed into the stage of the national competition.Just as he was full of joy to invite Guan Chen to watch his debut in the national competition, he played one after another until he was eliminated and went home after being defeated.

Those on the field were all senior preparatory sports students, relatives of the principal, children of the leader, and players whose families had given gifts to the coach.

Obviously, the national competition, which can gild the scenery, is not in Wu Yan's turn.He is a "young man" who is innocent and only in the third grade after the summer vacation, so he can only sit stupidly on the sidelines.

Guan Chen was invited to sit with him in the auditorium, wasting time and time when he finally took leave from the production team.Although Guan Chen always had a relaxed face after the game, so that Wu Yan didn't have to feel guilty, and comforted him by saying, "Thanks to you inviting me, I was inspired to perform again"...but Wu Yan knew that Guan Chen was pretending to be relaxed.

Sitting in the car heading to the premiere of "Police Story" now, Wu Yan only felt that he had failed the promise with his elder brother.

"I really didn't expect your relationship to become so good." Director Zhou sighed.The cameraman brother sitting in the passenger seat is also full of wonder at the impermanence of life.

It never occurred to her that the friendship with Guan Chen could last till now.

What's more, he didn't expect that otaku who lived in a messy house and had a dangerous temperament, would become a promising newcomer actor in the film and television industry in less than a year.

When the two of them received the invitation letter for the premiere from Guan Chen, they hurriedly sent the new variety show named "Life Alone" to Xie Jinzhu's studio, and immediately rushed to the capital to start filming ahead of schedule, bringing along Wu Yan who was on vacation.

Wu Yan and they all got to know Guan Chen because of "How about going to your house tonight", so the first scene of the new program, as if to continue a certain tradition, was filmed with Wu Yan first.

Because of familiarity, Wu Yan did not shy away from the camera.Probably because he has been hanging out with an adult like Guan Chen for a year, Wu Yan is generous when facing adults, without the stage fright of a child at all.

Facing the camera, Wu Yan twitched into a smile, bluntly speaking about how he and Guan Chen became friends.He said that when he first met Guan Chen, he was terribly frightened, thinking that he had encountered some suspicious person who had escaped from the prison, so he had to lie that his parents were waiting for him.

Nearly a year has passed now, Guan Chen has become Zhongzhengpingping, he is no longer full of the arrogance of a villain; and he is no longer the little Douding he used to be, he can run faster if he is in danger, and has more The way to deal with the crisis, and the first person who wants to ask for help is the elder brother Guan Chen.

"He is my eldest brother now." Wu Yan told Director Zhou proudly.

In fact, there is a ceremony to recognize the elder brother, there is no need to worship Guan Gong, it can be simplified to a toast.One time when they were in a restaurant after playing football, the two of them opened a can of beer while waiting for the food, and they took the time to complete the ceremony.

Ordinary adults would not let children drink alcohol, but Guan Chen didn't care about that.At that time, Guan Chen had given up drinking, but he was willing to make an exception for him. Wu Yan felt a sense of being valued in his heart, and tasted the taste from the not-so-good wine.They only had that one drink.After that glass of wine, Guan Chen took good care of him from then on, never allowed Wu Yan to pay for food and drink, and gave him many things one after another, such as footballs, sneakers, buzzers, multifunctional sabers, self-defense jade pendants (not some kind of magic weapon, It was used for throwing); he also said that he would teach him all the slang words on the road.Guan Chen's explanation for this is that only by understanding slang can he get rid of his rookie identity and walk in the rivers and lakes. "It's just that the slang here is a little different from what I remember. I'll teach you after I finish learning it myself." Guan Chen finally told him this way, and he still doesn't know how far he has learned.

Director Zhou smiled and said, "Guan Chen has a good relationship with the police. When we first met him, we almost called the police and wronged him. When we interviewed him, he acted as an old criminal policeman again. Now he finally got his wish." , played the role of a policeman in the first play."

Wu Yan suddenly felt guilty. Thinking about all the things he had with Guan Chen, he felt faintly in his heart that if brother Chen had entered by accident, maybe everyone's life would be in a different direction...

"By the way, I heard from my elder brother that the filming of the new show won't start until the end of the year. Why are you here now?" Wu Yan involuntarily shifted the topic to Director Zhou.

"The broadcast will start at the end of the year. It's just right to start preparing the material now." Director Zhou held the machine steadily and said, "And there will definitely be a bunch of artists over there later, I can see if I can make an appointment for other stars to come to our show .” New programs need a steady stream of artists to add, and it’s always good to get to know more celebrities to make them familiar. “And chatting with celebrities face to face is more efficient than talking with their teams.”

Wu Yan asked: "Brother seems to have participated in a lot of variety shows a while ago. I remember who said that an actor who often appears on shows is not good?"

"It's really not good." Zhou Dao said at this time, showing a slightly sad expression of "coming late".

Some time ago, Guan Chen participated in some variety shows in order to promote the movie. He is very adaptable, and any type of variety show can produce program effects.While Director Zhou was envious, he was also a little anxious.The promotion of the film is consuming Guan Chen desperately, every time it is exposed, the mystery of Guan Chen will be lost.When Guan Chen participated in the new program broadcast every Monday, he probably agreed to record only a few episodes in order not to be stereotyped and reduce his appearances.

"Speaking of this, when are you going back to Shanghai?" Director Zhou decided to follow Guan Chen for a few days, and he didn't care whether he was on vacation or not.

"I'll go back with my eldest brother." Wu Yan said.

"Your parents are relieved." Director Zhou said with a smile.

Wu Yan was silent for a while, then turned to look out the window again, without saying anything.

Director Zhou probably realized something, so he didn't ask further.

In front of him, the car gradually arrived at its destination.

……

The premiere of "Police Story" had a lot of pomp and circumstance.

The previous screenings were to some extent a bet against the theaters, and the decision to schedule films was based on word of mouth. The performance of "Police Story" convinced these managers. They have worked on hundreds of movies a year, and they have formed a certain sense of what kind of movies will explode at the box office.Therefore, on the day of the premiere, I wish the bigger the movement, the better.

A lot of media came to the scene, as well as many entertainers.

Huang Jin has a relationship with "Police Story", and even contributed to Guan Chen's joining. As a friend of the crew, he was invited to be the host today.

A red carpet was laid on the ground outside the venue, and the audience and the media surrounded both sides.Whether interacting with the audience or interviewing artists, Huang Jin perfectly controlled the scene.

After Wu Yan and Director Zhou got out of the car, they didn't rush in from the side.They stood in the distance, watching which stars would come to help out today.

The director, Chen Bin, is just a little famous, and his qualifications are not yet deep, so he can't invite any big names.But Zhang Jingsheng's good popularity spreads across all levels of the film and television industry.Director Zhou stood there for a while, and then successively photographed several film kings, actresses, singers and queens who had a good personal relationship with Zhang Jingsheng.The starlight on the scene is almost more shining than some large film festivals.Some actors and singers who have been supported by Zhang Jingsheng are willing to come to express their support whenever they are free, and try to get to know other big names.

The second male lead of "Police Story" is a child actor who has been on the set since he was a child. Although his reputation in the industry is not very good, he has also met many like-minded friends.

Yao Zhiyu's friends are all from the idol world, they are all young, lively and beautiful.Let the autumn scene have the enthusiasm of summer.Her [Nebula] group also assembled a complete body, and came to support the sisters.

But Wu Yan didn't see an artist who claimed to be Guan Chen for a long time.

"It's too late for Guan Chen to debut, and he doesn't have many friends in the circle." Director Zhou said.

Wu Yan held the opposite idea.Brother Chen is such a good person, it's impossible to have no friends.

Sure enough, the host team of "Extreme Man" came.

These variety show people who are laughing and joking in the show and dare to wear any clothes, once put on formal clothes, all of them are very uncomfortable after such a serious occasion.Except for Shen He, he thought he had a better relationship with Guan Chen, and his hosting skills were better than Huang Jin, so he grabbed the microphone and replaced Huang Jin as the host.He first scolded the group of colleagues, telling them not to dawdle on the red carpet, and then said to the audience next to him that Guan Chen was his younger brother, everyone should give him face, don't make trouble, wait a moment Guan Chen is here, we must give him the warmest cheers.Shen He also promised everyone, "If you do well, I can give each of you a piece of Huang Jin's autograph." Huang Jin only rolled his eyes when he heard this.Several other people hurriedly dragged Shen He into the arena, leaving behind laughter all over the place.

Director Zhou retracted what he said earlier, and said with a smile, "That's right. Guan Chen hasn't made his debut as a movie actor yet, but as a variety artist, he is no longer a newcomer."

As if to confirm this sentence, the host team of "The Chaser" also came.

Zhao Shuangyan, Dreadlocked Man and Miss Wan, the three "Liu Guan Zhang" group actively waved to the surrounding audience.Especially Zhao Shuangyan, with a business smile, pretending to take selfies with everyone.And many people are also very happy about it.

Wu Yan knew why.

In recent issues of "The Chaser", Zhao Shuangyan has gradually changed from a fool who can't be funny to a fool who likes to cheat.He took the famous saying left by Guan Chen [there is no road in the world, if there are many people walking, it becomes a road], he called himself a disciple of Guan Chen, and wanted to carry forward Guan Chen's spirit.Then cheat like crazy on the show.Although the methods and techniques are far from those of Guan Chen, but he got the idea, although rough, but full of jokes, and soon achieved results. The camera and popularity rose rapidly, and he got rid of the embarrassing position in the team.Zhao Shuangyan is grateful to Guan Chen for leading the way. Recently, he has been urging everyone on the Internet and on the show to remember to watch his master's movies.

After a while, Wu Yan saw Brother Chen's senior brother appear on stage.

There was an old man beside Xie Jinzhu, and Wu Yan guessed that it should be the elder brother's master.

Xie Jinzhu walked very slowly, wearing sunglasses, but rarely dressed like a gangster, wearing a red Tang suit, looking very festive.Much like an old dad at a wedding.

The old man next to him walked quickly, with a camera in his arms, and walked the red carpet like a race, chatted with Huang Jin briefly, signed his name hastily, and asked the media to take a few photos casually. Walking towards the venue, it seemed that he was in a hurry to take a photo with someone.

Next came Guan Chen.

Guan Chen appeared with Yao Zhiyu.As an on-screen couple, they have appeared together on many shows and magazine covers in the past two months.At this moment, the two of them appeared on the stage in one black and one white formal attire. The passers-by were divided into two situations. Those who knew them would shout their names excitedly and tried to get a closer look; My heart fluttered, I felt the unfairness of people's appearance, and I remembered this pair of people.

The camera's flash lights up wildly.

Although Director Zhou and Wu Yan couldn't see Zhang Jingsheng, the people who were waiting had already appeared, so they stopped watching outside.After handing over the invitation letter, he walked into the infield to wait for Guan Chen.

Director Zhou and the others were not waiting by the door, they were going to find Xie Jinzhu and other family members of Guan Chen, gather together, and wait for Guan Chen to come over.

They first found the old man named Xing Yan. Regarding where Xie Jinzhu was, he said that he was an old man, so how could he know this.As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow queen passed by, and Xing Yan immediately ran over to ask for a photo with him with a kind of flexibility and speed that did not match the old man.

After turning around a few times, Director Zhou and Wu Yan finally found Xie Jinzhu.

Xie Jinzhu was chatting with Shen He.But standing next to her was an extremely beautiful girl, dressed in ordinary clothes, but among the stars in the audience, she was not inferior to anyone in terms of appearance alone.

"Sister Xiong!" Wu Yan stepped forward to say hello.

Little Xiong turned his head to look at Wu Yan, and waved happily, "You're here too."

Director Zhou is still guessing which celebrity this is.Wu Yan turned around and introduced her, saying that she is a good friend and an old classmate of the eldest brother.

Can't wait for what they say,
Not far away, Guan Chen and Yao Zhiyu walked over.

Guan Chen came to look for Xie Jinzhu and the others, while Yao Zhiyu walked over unconsciously.

Wu Yan could clearly see that in just a few short steps, Sister Yao quietly glanced at Sister Xiaoxiong more than a dozen times.

Wu Yan was thinking to say, Sister Yao, your actions are too obvious... Turning around, I realized that Little Bear has been staring at Yao Zhiyu.

"Finally see you!" cried Little Bear.

The direction of speaking was towards Yao Zhiyu.
