Chapter 115 Returning to the "The Story of Minglan" Film Set
Chapter 115 Returning to the "The Story of Minglan" Film Set
This time, when Qin Tian finished his work and stepped into the "The Story of Minglan" crew again, it was more than a week later.
Coincidentally, Zhao Xiaodao wasn't on set either. It turned out she had other commitments and was away attending an event, so she wouldn't be back until tomorrow.
Fortunately, Bai Lu and Peng Peng have already joined the crew, which gave Qin Tian some comfort.
Since Bai Lu had never acted in a TV series before, Qin Tian specially arranged a small supporting role for her to practice.
That evening, Qin Tian generously treated the two of them to dinner, as a way of encouraging Bai Lu. At the dinner table, the three chatted and laughed, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
After dinner, Bai Lu approached Qin Tian alone and asked with a troubled expression, "Qin Tian, there are people online discussing my canine teeth. Do you think I should have them pulled?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian immediately waved his hand and said, "No, this is your unique feature. Others would love to have it, so please don't pull it out! But you can try to tone it down a bit when you laugh in the future."
"Tone it down a bit?" Bai Lu asked doubtfully, not understanding why she should.
"Yes, let me show you a picture." It's a laughing picture from the show "Back to Field".
For those without a picture, you can refer to the Bailu bottle opener. (^_^;)
Qin Tian then added, "Like this, you see, isn't it a bit exaggerated?" Bai Lu took one look and immediately burst into laughter.
After laughing, Bai Lu said enviously, "Qin Tian, when will I be able to make a movie? Look at Sister Yitong, her movie debut has already grossed 13 billion yuan."
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian chuckled inwardly at how impatient this little girl was, but he still patiently explained, "Don't panic, there will be bread and milk. You should practice by filming this TV series first; TV series can really boost a person's career. Once you're popular enough, I'll write you a script to elevate your status."
Upon hearing this, Bai Lu's eyes lit up immediately: "Really? Then I'd better do my best."
However, she asked with doubt, "But Sister Yitong is pretty good. She became famous without even acting in a TV series."
Qin Tian shook his head: "That's mainly because 'Running Man' is so popular. It has to be said that 'Back to Field' isn't as effective at promoting people as 'Running Man.' But think about it, your popularity is probably higher than Meng Ziyi's now, right? There are pros and cons. Besides, Meng Ziyi will also be participating in variety shows to stabilize her popularity."
Qin Tian's words were reasonable and well-founded, which made Bai Lu nod repeatedly in agreement.
Moreover, upon hearing that Qin Tian valued her so much and had made such a good plan for her, she was immediately filled with gratitude.
The two chatted happily for a few more minutes before parting ways.
The next day, Qin Tian arrived at the film set early. Because too many scenes had been delayed and a lot of footage needed to be reshot, he came early to get his makeup done and ready.
It must be said that Qin Tian has a talent for acting. Although he has never studied acting, he has made rapid progress overall.
Even director Hou Liang couldn't help but exclaim, "Qin Tian, you're such a waste of your talent! You were born to be an actor!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian felt a little indignant: "It would be a waste of my singing talent to be an actor! Being too versatile isn't a good thing either."
Although he said that, he was secretly delighted.
After all, it is a great honor to receive the director's approval.
The morning's filming was completed quickly. At this time, Zhao Xiaodao also returned to the film set.
Upon meeting, she teased, "Wow, Xiao Tian is amazing! Your movie grossed 13 billion yuan in just one week! You've completely crushed 'The Monkey King 3'!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian immediately laughed smugly: "Keep it down! The 13 billion box office you mentioned was yesterday's figure; it's already 15 billion today!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaodao's eyes widened in surprise: "Holy crap! Xiaotian, I need to go back to the 'Journey to the West: The Land of Women' set. I have to learn a lot from you! Every film you make is a hit, what's your secret? Or why are the scripts you write so popular?"
Zhao Xiaodao's words also voiced the questions that many people had.
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian thought to himself, "Because I copied it!" But he certainly couldn't say it out loud.
So Qin Tian explained, "Look at 'Journey to the West,' the Women's Kingdom is just one of the trials. Everyone likes to watch stories about monkeys, but you not only don't film the monkeys, you also film a love story."
These days, scripts seem to add romance elements to everything, as if they can't make a film without love.
Aside from romance and couple promotions, if this continues, young people will watch fewer and fewer TV dramas, or they'll only watch old ones.
Moreover, even short dramas will be more watchable than the romance dramas these directors make. It's ridiculous that they have to add romance to even a serious drama.
Qin Tian spoke eloquently and indignantly.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaodao quickly interrupted, "Stop, stop, stop! Are you here to complain? I asked you to help me analyze how to choose scripts in the future!"
Qin Tian suddenly realized: "Oh right! Choosing a script! Actually, it's not so bad! Besides having a logical plot, it's all about casting! Look at that Feng Teddy! He can't even carry a leading role in a drama! What's the point of making a movie? It's a waste of resources! No wonder it's a flop!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaodao immediately became interested: "You seem to be quite hostile towards Feng Taidi! You even specifically asked him not to act in 'The Story of Minglan'! Did he offend you? I'm actually on pretty good terms with him! We've known each other since 'Palace'! Back then, I was just a minor supporting actor!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian rolled his eyes: "I only don't use him because you two are close! Stay away from him in the future! He's such a jerk! Don't fall for him!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaodao hesitated for a moment, then asked with a slightly uncertain tone, "Are you jealous?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian nearly spat out a mouthful of blood: "How could that be! Are you kidding me! I have a girlfriend! Why would I be jealous of you?"
(Often, the more you refute it, the closer you get to the truth)
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xiaodao burst into laughter: "You're just jealous! Hahaha! Hey, I remember you said back in Mushroom House that you didn't want Feng Taidi used! Did you like me back then? Did you keep an eye on me all this time?"
Qin Tian looked helpless, inwardly cursing, "What the hell do you mean 'like'? I'll just flirt normally, okay?"
