This actor needs more money

"Who says it's not? This character makes me irritated when I see it."

Ding Xiu agreed with Jinsha's words.

He knows the character Yi Xiaochuan better than anyone else. The more he knows him, the more he feels like he is too holy.

In ancient times, it was normal for men to have three wives and four concubines.

But this girl has just lost her life for you, and the first seven days have not passed yet, and you run off to find a new love. Isn't it a bit too much?

Ding Xiu thinks that he is not a good person, and he cannot do such a scumbag thing.

Emotionally hesitant or secondarily, Yi Xiaochuan has many problems.

Ding Xiu knew from the script that this guy hugged Xiang Yu's thigh and Liu Bang's thigh, and he was so prosperous.

His eldest uncle, Gao Yao, traveled through time with him, climbing up step by step for rights and survival.

It's okay if she doesn't give her a helping hand. She even advises her uncle to be content with what she has, and that's pretty much it.

You are hugging me from side to side, you have Xiang Yu and Liu Bang as your backers, Qin Shihuang’s wife is your mistress, and Meng Tian is your eldest brother, of course you are content.

The life of a high-ranking person who traveled through time was miserable. He was taken to the palace to be a eunuch, his little brother was gone, and he was bullied. His career had just started to improve, but you ended up trying to persuade people to be generous.

How can you not be satisfied when you flirt with Qin Shihuang's little wife every day?

"Then you still act?" Jin Sha said angrily.

"I paid you. If you don't act, you'll have to pay liquidated damages. If you don't act, you can't do it." Ding Xiu shrugged and said with a playful smile, "By the way, how are we going to shoot today's scene?"

Jinsha's face was slightly red. Today's scene was about Lu Su feeding imported medicine to Yi Xiaochuan who was unconscious. It was still a bit too big for her.

"You can shoot whatever you want. Brother Xiu, you are a professional. I believe in your professional abilities."

Ding Xiu almost laughed out loud: "Today I am playing a vegetative person. I am a professional, so the whole drama is up to you."

"Don't worry, you can act however you want. I'll fully cooperate with you. At worst, I'll suffer some losses. I'll give you my first kiss on screen."

Jinsha, who was a little nervous at first, almost laughed when he heard this. Ding Xiu had a shitty first kiss on screen. Not to mention that he has been in the industry for seven years and has filmed countless kissing and sex scenes. His performance in Apple, Tsk tsk.

"Then I'll discuss it with the director."

"come on!"

Ding Xiu gave the young actor an encouragement and waved goodbye.

Without a troublemaker around him, Jinsha calmed down again and focused his time and energy on writing songs. He fantasized about the plot of the TV series while writing, and soon the second paragraph came out.

Revise and revise, consider every word, and strive to be simple while conveying the meaning you want to express.

…

"All departments are in place!"

"The venue is cleared."

"Adjust the device."

"Props team, check the props."

"Light, the light is a little dark, please make the light brighter."

"The actors are in place and ready to start filming."

In the thatched house, Ding Xiu was lying on a simple bed, his eyes closed, his face pale and breathless.

At the door, Jinsha, who had put on ancient costume, was holding a bowl of iced black tea, quietly waiting for the director's order.

Ding Xiu opened his eyes and took a look in the middle. Not to mention, Jinsha's ancient costumes were quite beautiful.

Bai Bin's costume is a bit cool and noble, like a white lotus.

Jin Sha's ancient costume is the opposite. She has thick bangs in front of her forehead. She is restrained, slim and elegant. She has a sweet smile and the temperament of a good girl.

"Dalang, get up and take some medicine." Jinsha didn't hear the sound of playing the board for a long time, and Jinsha was bored, so he came to Ding Xiu and made a joke.

"I thank you."

Ding Xiu crossed his legs and scratched his itchy head.

This bed was a haystack, and the bed was covered with dry straw, which was a bit moldy. After lying down for a while, he felt his scalp was a little itchy.

"You're welcome. This medicine is still warm. Do you want to take a sip?"

Taking the bowl, Ding Xiu drank it all in one gulp, then smashed his mouth: "Don't tell me, I'm really thirsty."

Jin Sha was anxious: "This is a prop, how should I take pictures later?"

"Look for Xiao Zhao and ask her to pour you another bowl. What a big deal." Ding Xiu said to Zhao Liying who was watching the show outside: "Xiao Zhao, give her a refill."

"The actors are ready, filming will start soon. Where is the medicine?"

"Director, wait a minute, he'll be here soon."

Zhao Liying poured Jinsha a full bowl of tea from Ding Xiu's thermos cup, which was steaming under the sun.

Before the filming started, the golden sand kept blowing cold.

Ding Xiu smiled and said, "Isn't it a little late to start bragging now?"

Jin Sha was helpless: "You have the nerve to say, if you hadn't drank my props, would I have been able to play here?"

"Let's do it later. What you are serving now is freshly boiled medicine. It is already hot, so the performance is more natural and the effect is much better than the bowl of herbal tea you had before."

"That makes sense."

Jinsha's main job is a singer, acting is a side job, he doesn't do much filming, and he doesn't know much about acting.

However, after Ding Xiu reminded her, she felt that this suggestion was very good. She seemed to have thought of something, and she said half-jokingly: "Although we don't need to misplace the scene in this scene, brother Xiu, please don't take advantage of me."

Ding Xiu admired such dedicated actors the most, and immediately said seriously: "I am a comatose person in this scene, and no organ in my body can move. How can I take advantage of you?"

"That's not necessarily true. Can't your tongue move?"

"If you say that, I won't be sleepy anymore."

All joking aside, of course Ding Xiu couldn't stick out his tongue, he was not a gangster.

Two minutes later, filming officially started.

"Three, two, one, let's go!"

Holding the bowl, Jin Sha came to the bed and blew a few puffs on the still-smoking medicine. He tasted it himself first and found it was still a bit hot, then blew on it again.

She was the one who took the first sip. By the time it was Ding Xiu's turn, he would have been physically cooled down.

Feeling that it was almost done, Jinsha gave himself a spoon, sipped it in his mouth without swallowing, and looked at Ding Xiu, who had his eyes closed.

Outside the window, the sun shone in and fell just on Ding Xiu's face, with handsome features.

Don’t suffer!

With his eyes closed and everything in front of him dark, Ding Xiu didn't know anything. In order to play a good patient, he couldn't even breathe normally.

I don’t know how much time passed, but there was a touch of warmth on my lips.

Subconsciously and instinctively, I almost stuck out my tongue, but I thought it was filming so I held back.

The lips were pried open, and the imported tea flowed down the mouth. It was fragrant and a little sweet.

One bite, two bites, three bites.

I don’t know if it was too full, but I didn’t finish the bowl of medicine in seven or eight gulps.

However, Ding Xiu was not in a hurry, he felt very comfortable, and felt that this was the best thing about filming.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the imported tea was over, but the director’s voice didn’t come out. Ding Xiu didn’t know what was going on and didn’t dare to move.

After two minutes, the director shouted: "Brother Xiu, you can open your eyes now."

Ding Xiu opened his eyes, gently wiped the water stains from the corner of his mouth, turned his head and looked to the side. Standing next to Jinsha was a man wearing the same clothes and hairstyle as Lu Su.

He is in his thirties, with an unshaven face and a Chinese character face.

At first glance, he looks like a stand-in.

Ding Xiu's heart trembled, and he had a bad suspicion.

Turning his head, he lay on the edge of the bed and retched.

"vomit!"

"Brother Xiu, are you okay?"

"Doctor, doctor!"

"I'm fine, just a little bit heatstroke."

Surrounded by a crowd of people, Ding Xiu waved his hand with a pale face and said to the director: "Director, I want to watch the replay."

Damn, you are so dedicated.

The director and the staff were in awe.

If you don't say that Ding Xiu is famous, look at his dedication. Not a single line, not a single action, even a motionless "corpse" has to be watched to see if the performance is good or not.

In front of the monitor, Ding Xiu started to watch the replay. Thanks to his light, Jinsha followed suit, resting his chin on his hands, sitting in front of the small bench and watching quietly.

The scene is not long. At the beginning, Jinsha is holding the medicine and blowing a few slow breaths. Judging from the hot smoke and her cautious movements, the temperature is not low.

Director Jiang Jiajun said: "This action is well designed. It is better than the one in the script and is more vivid and life-like."

Jinsha said sheepishly: "Brother Xiu gave you good guidance."

Her acting skills are not good and she did not act in this scene. The "Chinese medicine" burned her mouth, which is a natural body reaction.

Ding Xiu didn't listen to what the two said. He stared at the monitor motionlessly, his heart twitching.

The next second, when he saw Jinsha's imported tea entering his mouth, he breathed a sigh of relief and turned to glare at the director and Jinsha.

"What's going on with the stand-in on set?"

When he opened his eyes, he saw a middle-aged man and almost scared him to death.

"Stand-in? Substitute?" Jin Sha said: "I have something to do and I need to take a leave of absence temporarily. The stand-in will help me complete a few scenes."

It is normal for actors to use stand-ins. In some scenes, there is not much difference between the real person and the stand-in, such as riding a horse or a distant back view.

It's just that some actors are dedicated and feel that they have to do things when they get paid, and they are generally unwilling to use stand-ins unless absolutely necessary.

Others are not qualified to use stand-ins. They are small and not well-known, and even if they have the courage to do so, they would not dare to use stand-ins.

"That's it, I understand."

Ding Xiu put his hands on his knees, nodded, got up and walked outside.

He probably guessed which part of Jinsha's stand-in was going to be used. As filming was about to wrap up, there were only two scenes left. The only place where a stand-in could be used was when Lu Su died and Yi Xiaochuan put her body on the bamboo raft. Float down the river.

Rolling his eyes, Jinsha said: "Brother Xiu, you don't think that the person who just gave you medicine is a substitute, do you?"

Ding Xiu paused and turned around with difficulty: "How is that possible!"

"Hahaha, just say so." Jinsha smiled brightly, and almost burst into tears thinking of how Ding Xiu retched before.

Director Jiang Jiajun was also dumbfounded. He finally understood. No wonder Ding Xiu came over to watch the replay.

There is no one left with this guy.

"Let's go, I'm going to change my clothes."

Not wanting to spend more time in front of these two people, Ding Xiu walked quickly.

Outside, Zhao Liying held the script in her hand and carefully figured out the characters.

From an ordinary extra with no lines to a special guest with a face and then to a small supporting role with lines, she completed the triple jump in just ten days.

For ordinary group performers, supporting actors are already the ceiling. If they go up higher, they don’t have a management company, they don’t have much fame, and generally no one will hire them.

Zhao Liying became the second player within a few days of starting. She has surpassed 99% of the horizontal drift and achieved an achievement that others have not been able to achieve in several years.

"Hello, Sister Yuanyuan."

Zhao Liying was still reading the script, and her phone vibrated in her pocket. She picked it up and saw that it was Gao Yuanyuan calling.

"Xiao Zhao, how are you doing with Brother Xiu recently? Is it hard to film?"

Peking, Siheyuan, Gao Yuanyuan is watering the flowers in the yard. There are many beauties in the Mythology crew, and she knows this.

It had been so long since Ding Xiu had been in the group, but Zhao Liying hadn't returned a single call. She was very pleased at first, but after a long time, she felt something was wrong.

This doesn't look like Ding Xiu's style.

"Brother Xiu, Brother Xiu is very good." Zhao Liying said quickly: "We are filming every day, very busy."

Gao Yuanyuan didn't realize what she meant by "we" and thought she was referring to Ding Xiu.

"Really, thank you for your hard work. Take good care of Brother Xiu. It's hot and don't let him drink. It's unhealthy."

"Well, I'll take care of it."

"Besides, if he has any contact with other actresses, please remember to call me as soon as possible."

"receive!"

Looking back on Ding Xiu's performance during this period, Zhao Liying didn't find anything out of the ordinary about him. He was filming normally, leaving early and returning late.

Yes, that seems to be it.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Liying felt a little guilty.

Gao Yuanyuan's phone call made her feel a little ashamed. She was busy acting, studying scripts, and writing character biographies, and she didn't seem to pay much attention to Ding Xiu.

Ding Xiu didn't come to see her if he had nothing to do, and let her do her own thing.

“Congratulations to Sands for finishing filming!”

"Thank you, thank you everyone!"

"Thank you, director, for the red envelope."

"Brother Xiu, thank you for taking care of me during this time."

"I will remember everyone."

"Bye-Bye."

The next day, Sands was finished filming and the character Lu Su was discontinued.

Taking the red envelope given by the director, Jinsha first went to buy fruits and drinks for everyone, and then thanked everyone one by one.

It is tradition that all the red envelopes for playing a dead man must be spent on the same day.

Of course, that being said, it actually doesn’t matter whether it’s spent or not. Those extras play dead people every day, and they don’t spend much. They save their money, and nothing happens.

Because she had other work, Jinsha couldn't invite her to the wedding banquet and needed to leave today. After saying goodbye to everyone, she gave Ding Xiu a page of paper before getting in the car and leaving.

"Brother Xiu, please help me see how the lyrics are written. Is there anything that needs to be changed?"

"If you have any questions, give me a call and I'll be on call 24 hours a day."

Myth of Stars and Moon, this is the name of the song she wrote, and the verse and chorus parts are all done.

Because it was about the love between Yi Xiaochuan and Lu Su, she wanted Ding Xiu to give her a reference. After all, no one knew the character Yi Xiaochuan played by Ding Xiu better than him.

"Okay, I'll look back."

After receiving the lyrics, Ding Xiu folded them in half and handed them to Zhao Liying, and hugged Jinsha goodbye.

The camp is solid, the actors are talented, the crew comes and goes quite normally, and Ding Xiu has nothing to feel sad about.

After Jinsha left, he looked at the lyrics carefully. They were very well written and couldn't find any faults. He was worthy of being a musician.

Before, he thought that Jinsha had such a good image and was talented as an actor, so it would be a pity to become a singer. He didn't expect that his talent in music is not inferior to that in acting.

After reading the words carefully twice, Ding Xiu clicked his tongue and still felt that this girl had a better future as a singer than as an actress.
