Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

Watching the fooled Lu Chuan leave the office in high spirits, Wang Zhonglei smiled at Nie Wei and said, "I have left you a chance, and you have to shoot this script well for me."

"Understood." Nie Wei picked up the script of "Turn Left, Turn Right" and said confidently, "I can't guarantee the box office, but I will definitely not let people find fault with my acting skills."

"Do as you say." Wang Zhonglei nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand to let Nie Wei go.

Nie Wei did not return to school with the script of "Turn Left, Turn Right". Instead, he went to the bookstore first and bought a set of related comics, and then returned to school with the script and comics.

Back in the dormitory, lying on the bed, Nie Wei first opened the comics.

Jimmy, whose real name is Liao Fubin, is a pen name that is actually a transliteration of his English name Jimmy. It does not have as many messy meanings as the outside world has spread. This picture book writer, who made his debut in 1958, has become popular in the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong and Macau with his writing style that is good at depicting people's hearts and his unique painting style. He is even well-known in Europe and the United States.

"Turn Left, Turn Right" was created by him in 1999 and is also one of his representative works. This comic book is even regarded as a treasure of "urban love" by some readers. Its content warms many lonely men and women in the city, making them believe that their other half may just be passing by them, but when fate comes, they will meet again.

The character of Liu Zhikang is a violinist. He is very handsome, with a little melancholy in his eyes. Many beautiful women like him, but he avoids them. He is a shy boy.

This kind of pure love role is really not difficult for Nie Wei, because there are not many emotional outbursts in it, and it is even easy to act. Nie Wei read a little of the comics and put it down. After flipping through the script, he also had a general idea in his heart.

This movie script is indeed acceptable.

Because the shooting technique of this movie is quite interesting.

On the surface, this is a movie, but it can be watched as two movies, because the hero and the heroine do not have much communication in their daily lives. So after reading the script, Nie Wei found that he and the heroine did not have many scenes against each other from beginning to end.

It's like two parallel lines, each shooting their own, until they meet at the end. It's a very interesting narrative technique, and it also tests the actor's skills.

Just when Nie Wei was about to flip through the script again, there was a noise in the corridor outside the door. Nie Wei knew that the get out of class was over.

Sure enough, in less than a minute, the door of the dormitory was pushed open. Nie Wei looked up and saw that it was Luo Jin.

"Nie Wei, you're back." The first thing Luo Jin saw when he entered the room was Nie Wei lying on the bed, and he immediately asked, "Let's go to the cafeteria to eat together."

"Not going to the cafeteria today, I'll treat you tonight." Nie Wei put down the script and replied with a smile.

After all, if this role is successfully won, Nie Wei will not be able to stay in school for a long time, so it is reasonable to treat the brothers in the dormitory to a meal.

When Luo Jin heard that someone was treating him to a meal, he was immediately overjoyed, but then he asked in confusion, "What good news is there?"

"New script." Nie Wei didn't hide it, and shook the script outline towards Luo Jin.

"Is this the script outline? Let me see it." Seeing the script in Nie Wei's hand, Luo Jin's eyes lit up, and he sat down next to Nie Wei, not only squeezing Nie Wei into the bed, but also snatching the script outline from his hand.

"It's a movie script, and he plays the leading role, but the name of the movie is a bit strange." Luo Jin was flipping through the outline excitedly, muttering. You know, this is the first time he has received a formal movie script outline. Although it is not his, it also makes this young man who has a dream of being an actor very excited.

Nie Wei felt amused and helpless when he heard Luo Jin's evaluation. What does it mean that the name is a bit strange? You know, this comic is regarded as the "urban love bible" by the literary young men and women there. This kind of mysterious and fresh name is quite popular there.

"Leave the script outline here first, don't lose it. In addition, when Ma Wenlong and Zhu Yawen come back, you notify them about the dinner party tonight. I will go to ask for leave from my old class. I will go to Hong Kong in a few days." Nie Wei stood up, pushed Luo Jin away, and said while turning over and getting off the ground.

"You're going to Gangdu?"

"Yes, the movie you have in your hand was sent by Gangdu. I'll go for an interview. If I'm successful, I'll probably stay there and wait for the filming to start. I heard that the funds and the crew are in place, and the only thing missing is the actors." Nie Wei pointed at the script in Luo Jin's hand and explained.

"How long will it take? The four brothers in our dormitory have finally been together for a few months, and we didn't expect to be separated again so soon." Luo Jin put down the script, feeling a little reluctant.

After these few months of getting along, Nie Wei has long since changed from the big star that they envied to a dormitory brother worth getting to know. Although Nie Wei is the third oldest in the dormitory, whether in academics or life, in this dormitory, Nie Wei has always taken care of everyone.

This is what Luo Jin felt most deeply. Now that he heard that Nie Wei was suddenly going to Gangdu, so far away, to film, he envied him and felt more reluctant.

"It's just a matter of a few months. You should take this opportunity to save more money and hold a welcome banquet for me when I come back, so that I can also have a meal back home." Nie Wei joked.

"Okay, I'll definitely treat you to 20 yuan worth of luxurious rice noodles then."

"Boss, you are such a tough guy."

Nie Wei left the dormitory, called Wang Jinsong, and then went straight to the teaching building.

Soon, Nie Wei appeared in Wang Jinsong's office.

"Old Ban, I want to ask for leave." Nie Wei said straight to the point.

"Are you asking for leave again?" Wang Jinsong was startled, and then said angrily: "I thought you were here to cancel the leave, but I didn't expect you to come here to ask for leave again. Don't tell me what kind of business activity it is. What does your company think? Now it's The critical period of your study is also the growth period of your acting career. Too many commercial activities will not be good for you. "

Wang Jinsong's words were sincere. In his opinion, the most promising child in the entire class is Nie Wei. Both his acting skills and appearance are impeccable. However, what worries Wang Jinsong is that this child is still too young now. Although he looks quite precocious, he will inevitably be spoiled by this colorful entertainment industry. If he accidentally gets lost, it will ruin a good talent.

Nie Wei was moved by Wang Jinsong's words of persuasion. Knowing that Wang Jinsong was caring about her, Nie Wei did not interrupt him immediately, but listened silently, and then explained seriously.

"Teacher, I understand. Don't worry. I have asked the company to reject many commercial performances for me. This is not why I come to you to ask for leave this time. I have received a script from Hong Kong. I think I want to go. Try it.”

"A script from Hong Kong Capital?" Hearing what Nie Wei said, Wang Jinsong looked pleased. He was a sensible and good boy. However, when he heard that Nie Wei had received the script from Hong Kong Capital, Wang Jinsong's happy face suddenly faltered.

Not only Wang Jinsong, but also two teachers in the office looked surprised when they heard Nie Wei's words.

"You can't be a liar, right?" a female teacher suspected. After all, there are really very few mainland actors who can act in Hong Kong movies these days. Although Nie Wei is famous, everyone still thinks that he is not qualified.

Being doubted by the teacher, Nie Wei was not angry, but continued to explain patiently: "I'm not lying, the other party directly gave the script to the company, a company called Galaxy Image in Hong Kong, the director is Du Qifeng, the work It was the book "Go Left, Go Right" that changed Jimmy, the painter of Baodao.

"I also know this work." Another male teacher said: "Jimmy's masterpiece has very high popularity and sales. Are you going to interview the leading actor, the violinist?"

Under everyone's questioning gaze, Nie Wei nodded. When Wang Jinsong saw it, he immediately became happy.

"Are you sure?" Wang Jinsong asked with a smile.

"Yes, I think I can win this role." Nie Wei replied confidently. How could he not be confident? Wang Zhonglei even told him that he would be the only one to audition for this role. There would be no competitors, and as long as his acting skills were up to par, he would be fine.

As for acting, this is exactly where Nie Wei is most confident.

"Okay, come back tomorrow to pick up the leave note. Remember to behave well over there and don't embarrass the mainland actors." Wang Jinsong waved his hand and told Nie Wei to 'get out'.

Nie Wei left, but the discussion in the office did not end.

"Old Wang, you are a very capable student. Du Qifeng is the great Hong Kong director who has made "Gunfire" and "Dark War". He is the first student of your class to play the leading role in a movie. "said the female teacher.

"This kid is a bit capable, but he has to be trained. Now let him play the leading role. I don't know if he can handle it." Wang Jinsong said modestly, and even belittled Nie Wei, but the pride in his eyes was It's full of success. The students' achievements are also his achievements as a teacher. The better Nie Wei develops, the happier he will be.

"Nie Wei is only eighteen years old, and his reputation is so high for such a small person. No one in Huaxi can compare with him. Seeing Lao Wang, you are destined to dominate that group in this class."

"Hahaha, I'm glad to hear it." Wang Jinsong couldn't help laughing when he mentioned that he could beat Hua Xi.

That day, Nie Wei invited several boys in the dormitory to have a meal together. Everyone expressed their envy for Nie Wei's invitation to be the leading actor in the movie. During the dinner, classmate Ma Wenlong toasted to Nie Wei continuously, which was unexpected. The last one to fall was himself.

When classmate Zhu Yawen heard that Nie Wei was going to act in a movie, she was silent all the way, but her eyes were full of fighting spirit, and she also ate quite vigorously during the dinner, which was quite a scene where fighting spirit turned into appetite.

Luo Jin is the seemingly most normal one among the three. He kept chatting with Nie Wei during the meal, and kept talking about his reluctance. Of course, if he reminded Nie Wei unintentionally every two sentences, It would be better if Yui brought a gift back from Hong Kong.
