Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

Chapter 258 257. Sudden Intention

Nie Wei asked casually, but Cai Zhuoyan's expression suddenly changed a lot.

"He went to apologize to the director. Yesterday I asked for leave for him, but he didn't come down. Who knew that he went back directly and couldn't get through the phone call. In the end, the boss even gave me a scolding. I was so wronged." Cai Zhuoyan's tone became more serious. The lower he spoke, the more aggrieved he became, and his head lowered lower and lower, until finally his chin rested on the table with a pitiful expression.

"Eat a candy." Nie Wei smiled and took out a toffee from his pocket and handed it to Cai Zhuoyan: "According to scientific evidence, sweets can make people feel happy."

"Really or not." Cai Zhuoyan took the toffee, quickly opened it and ate it, then immediately put on a beautiful look and praised: "I am in such a happy mood!"

"Hahaha." Both Nie Wei and Luo Yuan could tell that this girl was just being funny, but they were still amused and laughed.

If you walk a hundred steps after a meal, you will live to be ninety-nine. This is an old saying. Although it is exaggerated, doing some light exercise after a meal is still good for the body. Nie Wei quickly suggested going for a walk. As a result, Cai Zhuoyan and Luo Yuandu thought it was cold outside and was unwilling to go out. In the end, Nie Wei had to leave alone.

In fact, the weather in the Hong Kong capital at this time was not as cold as expected, at least it was much warmer than in Kyoto. Nie Wei only felt slightly cold in his shirt and windbreaker, which was not much different from the temperature in late autumn in the north of the mainland.

The lounge is only enjoyed by popular actors. This is the treatment of a small group of people. Naturally, it is impossible for the crew to arrange a resting place for everyone, so most people just find a place anywhere on the set to watch. Sit down in a clean place and start eating with your lunch box.

Nie Weiwei was walking and saying hello to the people he met. He didn't look like a big star at all. He looked more like those old men walking in the park in Kyoto. He only showed up when some female fans asked for autographs and photos. Showing the charm of an idol makes people realize that he is a big star.

After walking around for more than half of the set, Nie Wei, who was originally alone, had gathered five staff members. They were all female fans who liked him. They were chattering around Nie Wei and asking questions. Nie Wei was tired of dealing with it, but in the In the eyes of the men around him, they were very jealous of Nie Wei's "love".

When he walked to a corner outside the warehouse, Nie Wei was suddenly startled. There was a small pavilion not far away, with five or six people sitting inside, all looking downcast. Nie Wei looked familiar, but couldn't remember it for a moment.

"What do they do?" Nie Wei asked a girl wearing glasses next to him. From the previous chat, Nie Wei knew that this girl was doing housework, so it was definitely right to ask her.

The girl followed Nie Wei's finger and looked over curiously. When she saw the people in the pavilion, she immediately smiled and said, "Nie Wei, have you forgotten? They are the stand-ins for the criminal gang we are going to play for you this morning."

"It turns out it's them. Everyone else is eating. What are they doing?" Nie Wei asked confused.

"It should be because the logistics department didn't book them. After all, they didn't even film the movie, so it's like they were in vain. The logistics department wouldn't count them." Another little girl explained very knowledgably.

After hearing this, Nie Wei suddenly realized that his feelings were because he guessed that he had no food to eat.

On the other side of the pavilion, these servants were facing the embarrassment of being hungry, especially since a large group of people were eating, and the smell of rice was wafting around the warehouse. They were the only ones who had no share, so they could only do it on an empty stomach. Staring, terribly embarrassed.

They wanted to leave, but they were short of money. If they could take the crew's car, they could save some money, so everyone had to hide in this small pavilion not far away. Firstly, they were out of sight and out of mind, and secondly, they were afraid that the crew would call it a day. I couldn't see it, and I missed the big deal of taking a free ride.

It can be seen that these people have good intentions.

"Brother, it's okay to wait like this. I'm almost starving to death." A man with short hair said with a wry smile to the strong man sitting next to him.

"That's right, my stomach is growling." Another person chimed in.

"He also said that it was you." When the short-haired man heard someone talking to him, he suddenly pointed at him and complained angrily: "You said that the crew would take care of the meals at noon, and told us to save breakfast. As a result, there is no lunch now. , I haven’t eaten breakfast, I’m almost starving to death.”

"Stop arguing." When the man who was talking wanted to retort, a strong man said seriously, and the two of them immediately dared to dwell on this trivial matter anymore.

The name of this strong man is Zhou Guo. There is only one word difference between him and Zhou Aiguo, but their identities are completely different.

He is considered the leader of their martial arts group and has some connections. He usually takes over the work and pulls his brothers to do it together. At that time, he is very similar to the group leaders in the mainland. However, the difference between Zhou Guo and the group leaders is that he does not smoke. Yes, everyone will be given as much as they should earn each time.

In his words, all the money earned in this business was hard-earned money, and he suffered a loss. Because of this, his small group has never been able to develop due to financial problems. However, the colleagues who have been with him are also impressed by his loyalty. Impressed.

"If you bear with me, it will cost hundreds of dollars for the six of us to take the bus. If we save the money, we can have a good meal at night." Zhou Guo frowned and advised comfortingly.

"That's right, Xiaoliu, you are young and can't bear the pain. Back then, I followed Brother Guo and stayed in the rain for more than an hour to pick up a job. Did anyone complain at that time?" A short and thin man with long hair The man stood up and lectured the young Xiaoliu.

"I know, Brother Shan, I shouldn't complain." The scolded Xiaoliu smiled awkwardly and quickly gave in. He was most afraid of this guy. He was very good at talking. When he was satisfied with scolding, he had to scold him for an hour or so. The key was that he was also very poisonous. The scolded people wanted to find a crack in the ground to hide in.

"Brother, look, is that Nie Wei over there?" Just when several brothers were getting impatient, the little guy called Brother Shan suddenly pointed to a place not far away and shouted.

This sentence made everyone in the small pavilion look over there.

"Really." Zhou Guo had a good eye and saw Nie Wei surrounded by a group of girls over there. To his surprise, Nie Wei seemed to see him and waved at him.

"This kid, he really enjoys himself." Xiaoliu also saw Nie Wei, but he was more concerned about the group of girls who were very close to Nie Wei. He had only had this kind of enjoyment in his dreams.

"Shut up, don't make trouble."

"Can he hear from this distance?" Xiao Liu was scolded by Brother Shan again, and he immediately retorted. Just as he was watching Nie Wei talking, he suddenly widened his eyes and said in an incredible tone: "He's coming over. What is he doing? Did he really hear it?"

Nie Wei's sudden coming over really scared Xiao Liu, thinking that Nie Wei didn't really hear it! ? His frightened words also made the faces of several martial arts brothers around him not very good, especially Zhou Guo, who really wanted to sew Xiao Liu's stinky mouth that caused trouble.

"Everyone calm down first." Looking at Nie Wei who was getting closer and closer, Zhou Guo was sure that the other party was really coming for his group, and he immediately stood up and said.

With Zhou Guo's words, Xiao Liu's panicked look on his face also settled down a lot, especially Zhou Guo's burly body, which gave him a great sense of security.

When Nie Wei approached, he saw that the group of people looked like they were facing a great enemy, and was surprised for a moment, but only for a moment. The next second, Nie Wei smiled and greeted them warmly.

"Hi, hello."

"Uh... hello, hello." Zhou Guo was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react, and he quickly responded. With him taking the lead, the brothers behind him finally greeted Nie Wei awkwardly.

"You are all in the martial arts industry, right? How many years have you been in the industry?" After greeting, Nie Wei walked into the pavilion very familiarly and sat on the stone table in the middle, then asked everyone with a smile.

Nie Wei's natural attitude made everyone feel a little awkward, but Zhou Guo still subconsciously answered: "I have been in the industry the longest, nearly twenty years, and Xiaoliu has been the shortest, only three years."

"Is Xiaoliu him?" Nie Wei pointed at Xiaoliu and smiled: "He looks about the same age as me."

"I am twenty-one years old this year, how about you?" Xiaoliu suddenly saw Nie Wei pointing at him and made a friendly joke. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little excited and couldn't help asking back.

"I am twenty years old, but I have been in the industry for almost three years. Don't expect me to call you senior." Nie Wei smiled.

"No, no." Xiaoliu waved his hands repeatedly, and his face was hot because of Nie Wei's teasing. He knew that even Zhou Guo, who had been in the industry the longest among his group, didn't dare to let Nie Wei call him senior. After all, this circle not only looks at qualifications, but more importantly, popularity. His group of people can't even show their faces in the movie, while Nie Wei is one of the protagonists. The status between them is very different.

Thinking of this, Xiaoliu recalled Nie Wei's words in his heart. He was no longer excited, but for some reason he felt a sense of loss. After all, the two were about the same age and entered the industry at about the same time, but their development was very different. He was a big star, while he was just an unknown martial artist. He had acted in many movies, but none of them showed his face.

"Haha, I feel close to you when I see you. In fact, I can join this crew this time thanks to Brother Yuan Bin. He is also a martial artist, loyal and a good friend." After making a joke to Xiaoliu, Nie Wei continued to guide the topic.

When Yuan Bin was mentioned, the eyes of these martial artists obviously lit up.

"Boss Yuan Bin is my idol. I will be satisfied if I can achieve half of his success in the future." The youngest Xiaoliu said sincerely and eagerly. Looking at his sincere eyes, he really regarded Yuan Bin as his idol.

"Then I will introduce him to you if I have a chance." Nie Wei said.

"Really?" Xiaoliu's tone of this sentence was much more excited than when he answered Nie Wei just now.

"I promise, but I've made an appointment with a friend to go shopping this weekend. I'll contact you when the crew is on holiday next time." Nie Wei could see Xiao Liu's excitement and answered in detail, which made his words more convincing.

Sure enough, Xiao Liu had no more questions after hearing this, and nodded excitedly, but suddenly looked depressed after a while. Nie Wei asked him what was wrong, and Xiao Liu replied a little depressed: "Nie Wei, you don't know, we are not members of the crew, we just came here temporarily to be a substitute, and the crew will have nothing to do with us after this time."

"So that's it." Nie Wei suddenly realized, then smiled and said to the depressed Xiao Liu: "We can change our mobile phone numbers, and we can contact you by phone when the time comes."

As soon as this sentence came out, Zhou Guo, Shan Ge and others on the side all looked at Nie Wei in surprise, and even Xiao Liu was surprised, with disbelief in his eyes.

"You...you want to exchange numbers with me?" Xiao Liu said with some stammering.

"What's wrong?" Nie Wei took out his phone and asked, but then added a reminder: "Of course you can exchange numbers, but don't tell me."

"Promise, promise." Seeing that Nie Wei really meant this when he took out his cell phone, Xiao Liu immediately replied and quickly took out his cell phone. When he got Nie Wei's number, he still felt a little unreal. When did it actually store the private numbers of big stars?

"Nie Wei, can we go then?" Zhou Guo watched Nie Wei and Xiao Liu exchange numbers, then scratched his head in embarrassment and asked. He also liked to get to know the big shots in their industry, not just to hug him. Instead of looking at idols, I want to build more connections.

As the eldest brother, he thinks more realistically.

"Of course, I'll treat you later, even if I ruin your work today, I'll apologize." It wasn't until this moment that Nie Wei revealed the real purpose.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Guo and others were startled at first, and then they waved their hands, their words were very polite, and there was no complaint as when Nie Wei didn't come.

Looking at everyone's reactions, Nie Wei smiled. Only now did he say that it was actually all Nie Wei had planned before he came over.

If Nie Wei came over to apologize from the beginning, this group of people would definitely not dare to accept it since he had lost his worth. They might even think that Nie Wei came here on purpose to embarrass them.

But things are different now. First, the two parties got to know each other through the chat just now, and then Nie Wei brought up such a great god as Yuan Bin, which made several martial arts practitioners present eager to contact him and at the same time owed Nie Weiyi a share. Favor, if you say a slightly apologetic word at this time, the little grudge between the two parties will naturally disappear.

Of course, the reason why Nie Wei expressed his goodwill was because of a sudden idea. There are very few mature martial arts organizations like the Yuan Family Class or the Married Family Class in the Mainland. Just like when he was filming "Dragon Babu", martial arts instructors He and Wu Xing were both hired from Hong Kong. From here we can see the underdevelopment of this industry in the mainland.

But Nie Wei knows very well that with the development of movies, although special effects will replace many things, sometimes people are still the first thing. In order to ensure the safety of the actors and their own interests, some action crews naturally turn to martial arts. Instead of looking for those temporary people, it is better to form a company by yourself and support a group of martial arts practitioners. This business may suffer some losses in the early stage, but as long as it is run well and becomes famous early, Nie Wei believes that it will not let him down later. You are losing money, and it can also increase your reputation in the circle, so why not do it.

So after seeing this group of martial artists, Nie Wei suddenly had this idea in mind.

It's just that it's not a good time to mention this matter yet, but it's important to get along well with each other first. This group of people seems to be insignificant, but they are obviously very capable when they are recruited by Chen Musheng and Cheng Long to serve as military substitutes. of.

Sure enough, in the subsequent chat, Nie Wei was able to guide the topic and make their skills closely matched.

For example, Xiaoliu often fights for some handsome boys, while Zhou Guo is a special substitute for several strong men and stars. Sometimes he also encounters "good things" such as playing bodyguards and villains. This is also Xiao Liu is extremely envious of Zhou Guo, because Zhou Guo actually showed his face in the movie.

There was also Brother Shan. Nie Wei found that this short and thin man had very good kung fu, especially his leg skills. His kicks were whirring and windy. Nie Wei was even more surprised that the people he replaced were all girls.

"No wonder you have long hair." Nie Wei pointed at Brother Shan's long hair and said with a smile.

"Haha, I hated it at first. Although I am a little short, I always felt too girly for a woman. I resisted this for a while and passed up many opportunities.

But later I figured it out, in this job, you have to be relaxed. Being too pretentious will only make yourself uncomfortable. For example, if I don’t have this long hair now, I won’t be used to it. I will still do it every month. Maintenance and trimming.

To be honest, I am still proud of this ability. After all, there are not many people in this industry who can do the same thing. The audience can see through Lao Zhou's figure at a glance. "Brother Shan didn't feel embarrassed at all about taking the girl's place, and explained readily.

"Fuck you." Zhou Guoxiao cursed: "Can you describe it like that?"

"Hahahahaha."

Just when everyone couldn't stop laughing because of this teasing, a man suddenly walked over carrying two large plastic bags. Nie Wei waved to him immediately after seeing it.

"Luo Kai, this way."

Zhou Guo looked at Luo Kai curiously, knowing that this was Nie Wei's agent. He originally thought that the other party was looking for Nie Wei for something, but when Luo Kai got closer and closer, suddenly a smell of food came over, and he almost One of the hungry guys suddenly couldn't bear it anymore and his stomach growled.

Luo Kai finally walked to the pavilion, and everyone saw clearly what was in the plastic bag in his hand. Burgers, French fries and fried chicken nuggets. There was a strong aroma of frying, which was a bit greasy, but it was It is most suitable for everyone at this time.

After Luo Kai came in, the Zhou brothers kept glancing at the bag in his hand. It was an instinctive reaction.

Nie Wei couldn't help but feel happy when she saw the expressions of several people. Then she took the bag from Luo Kai and put it on the table. She watched everyone's eyes follow the movement of her hands, and she couldn't stop laughing in her heart. These big men How hungry are you really?

"I heard that you didn't eat at noon, so I asked Luo Kai to buy you some fast food nearby. This food is not nutritious, but it makes you hungry. You can take a bite." Nie Wei said with a smile.

This sentence was like the gospel of an angel to everyone present. However, after Nie Wei finished speaking, no one rushed over. Instead, they all looked at Zhou Guo, obviously wanting to see the leader's attitude. .

"How embarrassing is this?" Zhou Guo said embarrassedly.

"What's there to be embarrassed about?" Nie Wei smiled and waved his hand, explaining: "In the end, it's because of me that you lost your jobs and didn't have lunch. Treating you to a meal is nothing. By the way, I still have to go and talk to the director. Check the shooting schedule for the afternoon, I won’t stay any longer, and Xiaoliu, please remember to wait for my call.”

After Nie Wei said this with a smile, he waved his hand and took Luo Kai to say goodbye to them, because he knew that if he were there, these men would definitely feel uncomfortable eating the burger even if they could eat it.

Sure enough, watching Nie Wei's back gradually disappearing behind the corner, several people finally felt relieved and reserved. Xiaoliu had a burger on his left and a chicken roll on his right. , even the leader Zhou Aiguo unceremoniously held up a big chicken leg and bit it.

"This Nie Wei is worthy of being friends with Brother Yuan Bin. He is very loyal." After swallowing three burgers, his stomach was slightly filled. Xiao Liu wiped his mouth and picked up another burger. Forgot to say the last two nice words about Nie Wei.

"I don't know who was criticizing Nie Wei behind his back just now." Brother Shan on the side couldn't help but complain.

"I haven't been in contact with you before." Xiaoliu's face turned red anxiously. He really liked Nie Wei as a friend now, so he quickly cleared himself up. After hearing Brother Shan's words, he immediately retorted: "Now that I have been in contact with him, I I understand. To be honest, I have been a stand-in for so many people, and this is my first time being treated to a meal. Nie Wei is really grand, I like him.”

"Yes, I think Nie Wei also has a bright future." Zhou Guo also echoed from the side. He has more experience and has seen more, although he still can't guess why Nie Wei suddenly showed kindness to himself and others. , but based on Fang Fang's sophisticated way of dealing with people, he knew that Nie Wei could definitely thrive in this circle.

Thanks to four classmates, Tian Xiaolin, Ai OK, Eye Reading and Heart Ming, and E Ye Gulan, for their support. I wrote more today, so I uploaded it a little late. Please forgive me.
