Full-time actor

Chapter 12 [12] Being able to speak Japanese is amazing!

Whoops!

After Chen Yu said these words, countless extras, including those who got on the bus and the co-pilot holding a loudspeaker, suddenly turned to look at Chen Yu.

This guy, really, can speak Japanese?
  You must know that in 02, not many people can speak English fluently, let alone the slightly unpopular Japanese.

Having learned it and being able to speak it are two different things.

Many people have learned English, but have obvious difficulties in communicating. This is true for English, let alone Japanese.

"You... know Japanese?"

The heads of the group looked at Chen Yu up and down and couldn't help but ask.

What answered him was Chen Yu's fluent Japanese greeting: "こんにちは, Chen Yu と神します!"

"Okay, that's it!"

The group leader didn't understand this sentence, but he knew it was Japanese.

Moreover, the handsome young man in front of him speaks Japanese to a standard, without stuttering at all, and very smoothly. Coupled with the calm and calm expression on his face, he definitely has Japanese skills.

But the surrounding extras were a little stupid.

Damn it, all the college students who can speak Japanese are coming to compete with us for jobs?

Chen Yu looked like a student.

They all just thought that Chen Yu was bragging because he could speak Japanese, because they often did this operation.

In fact, they don't know shit, just to play a supporting role and stand out there.

And even those who know how to do it are only beginners. How can they be like Chen Yu, who just opens his mouth and comes?

"Damn, this is too bullying!"

"That is, to be a Japanese translator and pay a few hundred yuan a day for a job worth RMB 20 a day?"

"You idiot, it's amazing that you can speak Japanese!"

"Grass!"

Countless extras were yelling angrily, but Chen Yu just pretended not to hear them. The quality of many extras was actually very poor.

He had too much to listen to in his previous life.

"Okay, get in the car!"

The leader of the group looked very happy. He greeted an extra who had already closed the car door and opened the car door.

Moreover, the few guys who were originally crowded in the first row of the back seat were shouted at by the group leader and made room for the boss with Chen Yu. They could only squeeze into the back row in frustration.

Chen Yu was sitting in the first row of the back seat of the van. It didn't seem crowded at all. On the contrary, it was quite spacious.

A two-person seat, well, only 2 people can sit there; unlike the back seat, where 2 people are squeezed into the 6-person seat.

"Close the door and leave!"

The group leader shouted, and just as Chen Yu was about to take action, the group leader pointed to the person next to him: "You, close the door!"

"..."

The guy immediately had to get up and close the door.

All I can say is, eh, knowing Japanese is great; at least the group leader treats you with respect and admiration.

boom!
  The car started immediately, filled with more than a dozen people, and drove towards the Feiteng Film and Television Base in Huairou.

The other van behind it contained more people, almost 30 people.

The two cars were obviously going in the same direction. When they drove over, Chen Yu had already seen a pass under the front windshield - a pass for Feiteng Film and Television Base.

For a veteran who has been used to countless crews, it can be said that which car goes to which base is a judgment that has been implanted in his bones.

There are countless ways for them to tell where the car is going.

The reason why Chen Yu only spoke one word in Japanese and nothing else is because, according to the information he checked yesterday, the current Feiteng Film and Television Base is filming a TV series that requires Japanese extras - "Toward a Republic" 》!
  This is the most popular drama currently being produced by Feiteng and also has the largest investment. As one of the top 3 dramas on Douban, it is even praised by many as the best drama in the history of Chinese TV dramas, and a historical masterpiece as famous as "Ming Dynasty 1566". Such a crew requires supporting actors who are obviously very professional.

At least, there is a certain threshold when it comes to the selection of group performers.

Of course Chen Yu has watched the drama "Toward a Republic", and he also happens to know that this drama has a large number of extras who can speak Japanese.

Therefore, if this group leader knows the crew of "Toward the Republic", he will definitely need a special actor like him; and any group leader who is involved in Feiteng Film and Television Base will definitely not let go of the drama with the largest investment in the base.

Chen Yu knows this group of people very well and also knows some of the operations of the extras.

He wasn't worried about whether he could get the supporting role in "Toward a Republic" at all, but what kind of supporting role was the most important.

……

After watching his son enter the van, Chen Peidong still showed a hint of worry on his face.

"My son just went with them?"

"Who are those people? They look like a gangster..."

He asked Shen Xiaoqin anxiously, but Shen Xiaoqin glanced at him with a strange expression: "Xiao Yu, when did you learn Japanese?"

As someone who regularly tutored Chen Yu in his homework, he didn't even know that Chen Yu could speak Japanese. What happened to this kid's fluent Japanese just now?

"How much is this kid hiding from us?"

Shen Xiaoqin suddenly found that as a mother, she was quite sad.

Such a failure?
  My son likes to be an actor so much, but he doesn’t know anything about learning Japanese? ! !
  "No, do you still have the heart to consider this?"

"All my sons are gone!"

Chen Peidong pointed to the direction the van was leaving and asked, "By the way, why did you pull me just now?"

"What are you doing up there?"

"Ask him why he got up so early?"

Shen Xiaoqin pointed at the many people in front of her: "Didn't you see them all? There are so many people waiting to make movies, and your son is one of them!"

"He got up at 4:[-] just because he wanted to shoot a movie!"

"What else do you want to ask him?"

Shen Xiaoqin glanced at her husband lightly: "Old Chen, son——"

"grown up!"

Shen Xiaoqin let out a long sigh and looked at the dim light of the street lamp beside him, a little dazed: "He has his own ideas. The group of people just now should have taken him to make a movie!"

"Since he likes it so much, let him do it!"

"One day, he will need to be independent and face many things on his own!"

"All we can do is watch him grow silently like we do now!"

"This art test was pretty good. At least it made me know that this kid has something he wants to do, which is..."

Shen Xiaoqin felt a little sad because she did not choose the traditional college entrance examination to go to university.

However, when she looked at her son, who was shivering in the cold wind just now, and saw that he was not sleepy at all at 4:[-] and looking directly at the crew's vehicles, she suddenly understood.

Having a dream that you like and work hard for is better than anything else.

Love is more important than anything else.

"Let's go back to the hotel!"

Shen Xiaoqin pulled Chen Peidong, who was unmoved, and Chen Peidong suddenly rubbed his eyes, feeling a little sad: "Why did this brat grow up so suddenly?"
