"Here, take it."

In the hotel room where the crew stayed, Xu Xing stared blankly at the red envelope handed over by Xu Rong, and said in surprise: "Brother, what are you doing?"

Xu Rong smiled and said: "The filming has begun. There is always room to spend money, but not much. You can use the two thousand yuan first."

Being an assistant is not a leisurely job, especially for his assistant. Xu Xing's salary is not high. He asked Jin Fangfang and it was only three thousand yuan a month.

Compared with the hard work, the money is really not high, but assistant itself is a springboard industry, and no young person rushes to do this job as an assistant.

Either they have dreams of becoming stars and regard assistant work as a tool for accumulating contacts, or they hope to change careers and become executive agents, just like Jin Fangfang before. There is also another type of people, fans.

But regardless of whether the artist or the agency, fans are generally not allowed to serve as assistants because they are too uncontrollable.

However, this type of young people are often harvested by assistant training institutions in the market. They train for half a year and charge a large fee, making fans think they have mastered the necessary knowledge and skills of assistants, but they have no channels to contact idols at all.

"Brother, there's really no need." Xu Xing hurriedly waved his hands. She had heard from Jin Fangfang that some artists would give red envelopes to their assistants, but they were only a minority. Most of the artists' assistants were either from their own family or assigned by the company.

Can't catch it.

Xu Rong grabbed her hand, stuffed the red envelope into her hand, and said: "If you always plan to be an assistant, of course you don't need it, but if not, just take it and buy some fruits or something every now and then, and follow

There is no harm in establishing a good relationship with the director and producer, even if it leaves a little impression, they will not help you for no reason."

After he finished speaking, he thought of something important again and said: "Remember, it's okay to spend money, don't go astray."

Seeing his serious expression, Xu Xing nodded slightly.

“Tuk-tuk-tuk.”

The door was open, and when she heard a knock on the door, Xu Rong looked up and saw two tall middle-aged men standing at the door, one with a long and thin face and long hair, and the other with a round face and short hair.

But the two of them did not come in. They just smiled at the door and said: "Teacher Xu is here!"

Xu Rong walked to the door with the same smile and said: "Producer Zhu and Director Jiang have just arrived and are preparing to report to you. Come on, come inside and sit down."

The drama he is going to film next is called "Forgiveness", which tells a story about family ethics, family affection, love, selfishness and hatred.

This is a drama that really challenges the audience's bottom line. The Dongming he is going to play has a serious virginity plot. After discovering a certain unbearable past of his wife Xia Yu, he launched a crazy revenge on the person who hurt his wife back then, and killed him.

He was forced to commit suicide by jumping off a building, but because the methods used in the process were too drastic, he ignored his wife Xia Yu's feelings, causing her to become insane.

What's really funny is that his younger brother Dongfeng once liked his sister-in-law Xia Yu. After seeing his sister-in-law being hurt, in order to protect his sister-in-law, he gradually turned against him.

At the same time, Li Xueli, the girl pursued by her younger brother Dongfeng, also took revenge out of jealousy.

All in all, there are many selling points, but there are many inconsistencies in logic, such as the entanglement between Li Xueli and his role as Dongming, and the introduction of Xia Yu to him by his younger brother Dongfeng.

Those who are so cruel can no longer be so cruel.

It's a bit of a curiosity for the sake of curiosity.

The reason why he took the role was because he realized that the role of Dong Ming was very similar to another extremely classic role played, An Jiahe in "Don't Talk to Strangers".

Challenging such a role has always been his dream.

The long-haired, lanky man standing outside the door is Zhu Hong, a producer and investor, and the short-haired, middle-aged, fat man is director and part-time screenwriter Jiang Wei. He has met them both before.

When Xu Rong went to the door to greet the two of them, Xu Xing pulled the suitcase into the back room of the suite with great eyesight.

Zhu Hong shook hands with Xu Rong and asked, "How is it? Is the journey going smoothly?"

"Everything went well. When did the producer and director arrive?"

"It's been two days."

After chatting for a while, the two of them left without sitting for more, and at the same time told him to take care of him in the evening.

"Xu Xing, you can ask the assistant director for arrangements later. I'm going to see a friend." Xu Rong said to Xu Xing who was packing his clothes, and then went out.

He just heard from director Jiang Wei that Zhou Yiwei had arrived in the morning.

Zhou Yiwei's luck was much better than his own. He was easily admitted to a higher vocational college at Nortel, and later signed a contract with the famous Haiyan Studio, becoming one of the serious "Princes of Rock".

He became famous last year with "The Prison".

But at this point, it seems that Zhou Yiwei's good luck has completely run out.

Because there are three "Princes of Rock" in Haiyan Studio, the three of them are almost completely at loggerheads over the competition for resources. Farce happens one after another, and they almost roll up their sleeves and fight in public.

Coupled with the fact that Haiyan's works no longer enjoyed the same glory as in previous years, Mr. Zhou's career also began to decline.

After asking about Zhou Yiwei's room, Xu Rong walked to the door and knocked on the door.

After about six or seven seconds, the door opened, but when the lanky-faced Zhou Yiwei saw the person clearly, his eyes suddenly widened, and he subconsciously uttered the curse word "f*ck".

Then, before the smile on Xu Rong's face bloomed, the door closed with a bang.

"Teacher Zhou, am I so scary?" Xu Rong's smile turned into a frown, and she shouted outside the door.

Zhou Yiwei plays his younger brother Dongfeng in the play.

The reason why I'm afraid of him is because off-screen, Zhou Yiwei has another identity, that of Nortel's line teacher.

After waiting for a while, the door opened again, and Zhou Yiwei exposed half of his head through the crack of the door, staring at him warily and extremely seriously: "Xu Rong, let's agree first, I'm here to film, now I'm just

I'm an ordinary actor, not a teacher. If you agree, I'll open the door. If you don't agree, I'll go back where I came from."

Xu Rong raised his hands and spread them out, saying: "Teacher Zhou, look, I didn't bring a notebook with me this time. Why are you panicking?"

Zhou Yiwei did not relax at all, and said: "You just say yes or not?"

"Hi." Xu Rongqian laughed twice and said suddenly, "Teacher Zhou, you haven't eaten yet. Come on, I'll ask you to go down and have a meal. You can order whatever you want."

"Don't interrupt, I can't afford your food." Zhou Yiwei seemed to have remembered some extremely unpleasant past events, his face slightly distorted, "Xu Rong, really, I'm not kidding, just be a teacher

Please, can you spare me?"

Seeing this, Xu Rong couldn't force it anymore and said with great reluctance: "Let's do it."

When Zhou Yiwei saw Xu Rong nodding, he laughed "Hey" and opened the door. When Xu Rong came in, he said, "That's right. Let me tell you about performance. When you reach this point, it is no longer someone else."

It can be improved by teaching. It has to rely on understanding and self-reflection. If you don’t believe it, look, which good actor is learned by studying theory? Besides, I’m not a few years older than you. I just call the teacher in school.

When you enter the school gate, you call me brother, and no one of us asks anyone for advice. We are just friends."

Xu Rong listened to Zhou Yiwei's nonsense, and looked at him for a while, until she saw that he felt uncomfortable, and then sat down on the sofa.

As soon as his butt touched the sofa surface, his expression dropped.

"well."

He sighed deeply at first, but when he saw that Zhou Yiwei didn't answer the question at all, he felt awkward and had to continue: "Teacher Zhou, you don't know, I'm under a lot of pressure right now..."

"Stop, stop, stop." Zhou Yiwei took out the cigarette case from the table. He was about to ask him if he smoked, but when he heard the words, he stopped him hastily and had no intention of giving up the cigarette.

Then, before Xu Rong could speak, he held a cigarette, squinted his eyes, followed Xu Rong's previous low tone, and said with a look of despair: "I'm really afraid that this play won't be performed well. I am Xu Rong."

I'm just a student, and my main task is to study. It doesn't matter whether I am popular or not, but I am afraid that I will lose the face of the school and the teacher. In that case, wouldn't I become a sinner of our school?"

Looking at Xu Rong's dumbfounded expression, he sat across from him, crossed his legs, lit the cigarette himself, waved his hands, and said: "I can memorize these rhetorics, don't worry, you can do whatever you want with your arms free.

I don’t feel ashamed.”

Xu Rong forced some smile lines to appear on the side of her nose: "Teacher Zhou, are you...a little too much?"

Zhou Yiwei laughed "hehe" twice and said, "Am I going to pass? I'm telling you, I'm pretty good at it. Do you know your class's report performance?"

Xu Rong shook his head. He really paid attention to this and no one told him.

"Look." Zhou Yiwei clapped his hands and said, "That's your class teacher. She has done more than me. I let you in anyway. People were afraid that you would participate in the show, so they specifically chose you to be absent.

Scheduled at the time.”

Xu Rongren felt a little numb. How could this good relationship between teacher and student Ladu have come to the point where they are no longer in contact with each other?

But he still added: "You can't, right? I happened to be filming out of town at that time, maybe I was worried that I wouldn't be able to make enough time."

Zhou Yiwei smiled but said nothing. He waited for a while and then said: "Okay, don't sit here all the time. I feel bad when I see you."

"Then why don't we have dinner together? Let me thank my teacher for my kindness?"

"No, no, no, I can't stand it. I can't stand it."

Xu Rong was pushed out of the room by Zhou Yiwei, but he never imagined that his reputation in school had deteriorated to this point, so he could only sigh helplessly.

Zhou Yiwei didn't want to deal with him, so he could only go back to his room to read the script. Aunt Xu heard that she would be here later.

In the evening, when Aunt Xu arrived, Zhu Hong called the film crew to eat downstairs and catch the wind and wash away the dust.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Xu Rong stood at the door of Aunt Xu's room, looking at her haggard expression, and couldn't help but be a little confused.

Aunt Xu plays his wife Xia Yu in the play.

He mainly came to say hello and called Aunt Xu to go and have dinner with her.

"It's okay, I haven't been in a good mood lately." Aunt Xu forced a smile, shook her head and said, "By the way, I won't go over to eat. Please help me tell the producer Zhu Hong and the director Jiang Wei.

Said I wasn’t feeling well.”

Xu Rong walked in the door and asked: "What's up, sister, is there anything I can do to help?"

"I'm just in a bad mood. You can go over there first. I want to be quiet."

Xu Rong didn't want to leave or stay at this time. After a long while, he said dryly: "Then...sister, do you want to eat anything? I'll have someone prepare it for you later."

Aunt Xu just shook her head gently.

Xu Rong hesitated for a while and had to close the door gently. He felt quite complicated in his heart. Aunt Xu had helped him many times, but Aunt Xu's current state basically ruined half of the scene.

In the elevator, he took out his mobile phone and searched the Internet. After a while, he understood the reason for Aunt Xu's current condition.

Her grandmother passed away.

He had occasionally heard her mention it several times before, because her parents were busy at work and she had grown up with her grandmother, so they had a very deep relationship with her.

He didn't know how to comfort Aunt Xu.

This is a contradiction in thought, and the pain of losing a close relative who has been with you since childhood cannot be explained in a few words, and can only be smoothed over with time.

Because Aunt Xu was not present, the atmosphere at the dinner table was relatively less lively. Although Zhu Hong tried his best to be lively, it was still inevitably a bit dull.

After all, the first girl was not present, and Xu Rong had already told them the reason, and they all expressed their understanding.
