Chapter 3 Exploring the Class(1/2)
Not far away, four black vans came speeding up, bringing up smoke and dust.
Not far from the set, a group of fat or thin men got out of the car quickly, quickly picked up various equipment, and headed towards the set menacingly as if there were springs on their heels.
Xu Rong looked at the situation and roughly guessed what was going on. In recent times, except for a phone interview, he had never shown up again.
Although he became famous, his popularity was short-lived and his foundation was not deep. When interviewed by the media, especially small media, they would not show mercy at all.
But the reason why he was not caught is because the school has strict control and the media cannot get in at all.
It's just that on the way here, I probably got exposed at some point and was caught by the local media.
He didn't panic, he just stood there and waited honestly. Ever since he became famous, he knew that he had to get used to facing such situations, and he couldn't escape.
At the same time, the crew stopped filming and looked at the reporters rushing over, wondering, what's going on?
After all, except for two reporters who were invited to come through favors on the day of the launch, no media came to visit the class after that.
But since people are here, it’s natural to entertain them well.
Although the Internet has emerged, these people still control most of the mainstream channels, and they are still the uncrowned kings.
Director Shen Dong hurriedly called someone to take the red envelope and went to pick it up outside the set. However, before he could get closer, he found that the group of media, who looked like hungry tigers pouncing on prey, suddenly stopped on the sidelines and looked around blankly.
He seems to be catching something.
"Dear friends from the media..."
"Where's Xu Rong?"
Shen Dong saw that no one was paying attention to him, and each reporter was talking about another name. He had to stand there awkwardly, followed by the assistant director who came over. Look at me, I look at you.
I'm just being sentimental, and I'm not here to visit the class at all.
But there is no Xu Rong in my group.
Xu Rong is very popular right now. If he invites her over and pays the salary, I'm afraid the rest of the family will have to eat rice bran.
"Teacher Xu?!" Xiao Zhang reacted a little slower. When he heard someone calling Xu Rong's name, he immediately shifted his gaze and scanned the onlookers.
Her eyes only glanced at the crowd, and she recognized the familiar figure. Her eyes lit up slightly, her mouth opened slightly, and then she jumped over and ran over.
Although he was wearing a mask and a hat, she could still tell from his appearance that it was Teacher Xu.
"Teacher Xu."
"Xu Rong is there!"
"The one wearing the mask."
Classmate Xiao Zhang's voice seemed to sound the clarion call for battle. The reporters, who drew their swords and looked around at a loss, swarmed towards him at a faster speed than before.
Xu Rong hurriedly stood up and took two steps back. He was really afraid that these people would not be able to stop and hit him on the head with the gadgets they were carrying.
"Xu Rong, are you here to visit Zhang Xiaofei?"
"Xu Rong, is Zhang Xiaofei your girlfriend?"
"Xu Rong, it is said that your disagreement with the agency is because Chang Jihong suppressed you?"
Hearing the malicious questions one after another, Xu Rong couldn't help but frown. It was obvious that these people had done their homework, otherwise they wouldn't know about classmate Xiao Zhang and Chang Jihong.
But as an actor, he still tried hard to control his expression, took off his mask, showed a kind smile, and said: "Let's talk about the show?"
Seeing all the media looking at each other, Xu Rong continued: "I recently received a very good book, which mainly tells a story that happened in the Northeast in the 1930s..."
He speaks very slowly, which can't be helped. Even if he is talking about drama, he has to go through the words in his head first to prevent him from saying something wrong.
"Xu Rong, is Zhang Xiaofei your girlfriend?"
Xu Rong stopped talking nonsense, waved his hand and said: "Thank you for your support. I really don't have any news. By the way, let's not interfere with the filming of the crew."
Seeing that Xu Rong had finished speaking, he turned around and left. A group of media people fell into the same embarrassing situation as Shen Dong before, neither leaving nor staying.
"Sorry, Director Shen, it delayed our shooting." Xu Rong first handed the two boxes of strawberries he was carrying to Xiao Zhang, who was looking at him in a daze, and then turned to Shen Dong and said.
Shen Dong was short, slightly fat, and wearing a pair of sunglasses. When he saw Xu Rong approaching, he quickly took off his sunglasses, held Xu Rong's hand, glanced at Zhang Xiaofei with a smile, and said kindly: "It's not in the way, it's not in the way. , Teacher Xu is here?"
He naturally saw that Xu Rong was here to visit Zhang Xiaofei, but he had to understand the relationship between Xu Rong and Zhang Xiaofei.
This is a free gift, and you have a guest appearance. You can't reach out and ask for money, right?
But the prerequisite depends on his relationship with Zhang Xiaofei.
If it was just ordinary friends or hype, he wouldn't mention it. If it was a more intimate relationship, it would be easier to talk about.
"My girlfriend."
Xu Rong didn't shy away from it either. He felt that he was not an idol and there was no need to care about it.
Shen Dong looked at Zhang Xiaofei beside him and his face turned red all the way down to his neck. Even the foundation couldn't cover it up. The smile on his slightly dark face became even thicker. He turned to the assistant director and shouted: "Hurry up and give it to Teacher Xu." Bring a chair."
The assistant director was stunned for a moment, but he saw Shen Dong winking at him secretly and immediately understood what he meant.
We can't let people run away.
Xu Rong looked at a group of media who refused to leave, as if they were waiting, and didn't pay attention anymore.
After all, artists are one of the few professions that are allowed by law to earn high incomes. Naturally, they have to pay the same price as other high-income groups.
Such as an extremely narrow privacy space.
Classmate Xiao Zhang seemed to be back at school again. Wherever Xu Rong went, she would follow her. Her two dark eyes were like magnets, always resting on Xu Rong's body.
"Teacher Xu, please sit down."
"Thanks."
It wasn't until a steward brought a chair and asked Xu Rong to sit that classmate Xiao Zhang came back to his senses, looked at the strawberries in his hand, looked at Xu Rong standing in front of him, and asked: "Teacher Xu, why are you here?"
"Of course I'm here to see you." Xu Rong didn't sit down, but turned around and pulled Xiao Zhang over and pushed him onto the chair, saying, "Let's take a rest first. How about it? Are you still getting used to it?"
Classmate Xiao Zhang tilted his head and looked at him and said, "It's good, just a little tired, but unlike what you said, the director doesn't curse."
Xu Rong nodded, catching a glimpse of the media in the distance taking pictures, and frowned involuntarily.
What Guo Si told him was to treat the media equally, with neither awe nor contempt. This is also the consistent attitude of artists.
However, the behavior of this group of people really made it difficult for him to have any good impressions. He should really learn from the group of colleagues at the "Guandong" launch conference. They were like elementary school students. They raised their hands first and no one spoke without permission.
Extremely polite and a breath of fresh air in the media industry.
"Teacher Xu, aren't you leaving today?"
Xu Rong looked at classmate Xiao Zhang's hopeful expression and knew that she must have something delicious to share with him. She would often drag him to any newly opened store or stall near the school that made delicious food. , and his expression is roughly the same as now.
He wanted to reach out and touch her head, but considering that she would be filming later, he finally took his hand back, nodded and said, "Yeah, I won't go."
She suddenly smiled and said: "Then just wait, I'll take you to eat a delicious crab after I finish filming."
Shen Dong greeted the media and came over. When he saw Xu Rong giving up his chair to classmate Xiao Zhang, the smile on his face became even wider and he asked: "Teacher Xu, why don't you leave in a hurry?"
Xu Rong roughly guessed what he was thinking, otherwise he wouldn't have been so polite as he moved chairs and poured water.
He and Shen Dong neither knew each other, nor had any interests entangled with each other, nor were they important figures in the industry, so they did not deserve this.
Shen Dong thought about it, and finally chose to bring it up frankly by himself instead of going through Zhang Xiaofei, and asked: "Can you help me make a guest role? Not much, just one sentence."
Xu Rong glanced at classmate Xiao Zhang who was also looking at him, hesitated for only a second, and then nodded in agreement.
For him, this is just a piece of cake, but it should make the living environment of Xiao Zhang a lot better on the crew.
When Shen Dong saw Xu Rong nodding, he was overjoyed and hurriedly turned around and shouted: "Xiao Li, put makeup on Teacher Xu and change clothes."
Xu Rong had imagined many kinds of first experiences on the big screen, but there was only one that he had never thought of: Puppet Army.
"Teacher Xu, after a while Zhang Xiaofei will stop you and say, 'Wait a minute, the search will start from me.' Teacher Xu, just say 'get out of the way'. You'd better have a more fierce expression. Can you think of it?"
Shen Dong knew Xu Ronghong, but looking at his age, he subconsciously regarded him as a student of about the same level as Zhang Xiaofei.
Xu Rong tapped his chin first, and after thinking about it, he felt that it was too dry for the first time to make a movie, so he asked: "Director Shen, can you add one more sentence?"
"Of course."
"Okay." After some discussion, a few people immediately turned on the phone.
“Everyone is quiet”
...
"a"
"Wait a minute, start the search from me." Xiao Zhang, wearing a cheongsam, stopped in front of Xu Rong and said righteously.
Xu Rong held the gun, tilted his head, glanced at the slender and delicate calves vaguely exposed at the hem of the cheongsam, swallowed, glanced up and down with his eyes, and finally stopped on the face of classmate Xiao Zhang, as if Joke didn't seem to understand what she meant at all. He took a breath and asked, "Where are you searching from...?"
"cough."
Xu Rong licked his lips, looked back at the cooperating actors, retracted his extended neck, and immediately became fierce and said: "Get out of the way."
"Card."
Looking at Xu Rong who immediately returned to his serious appearance after the "stuck" sound fell, Shen Dong could see that even though he looked like a dog, he didn't know what he was like in private.
He didn't believe that Xu Rong's expression of criticizing virtue just now was staged.
