Chapter 39 38. Confrontation
"Well, the young man acted very well." The woman praised and applauded, her eyes revealing her appreciation for Nie Wei.
It must be said that Nie Wei felt a little embarrassed by such straightforward praise.
"Let me introduce you, this is the chief screenwriter of our play, Liu Guoquan." Li Dawei on the side introduced at the right time.
"Hello, Editor-in-Chief Liu." Nie Wei looked at Lin Yifei who was still a little dazed, and quickly pulled her. At Nie Wei's reminder, Lin Yifei also greeted politely immediately.
"Xiaoli, this is your daughter, she is really born beautiful, a good material." Liu Guoquan smiled and praised Lin Yifei, and Lin Xiaoli on the side laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth.
After praising Lin Yifei, Liu Guoquan focused his attention on Nie Wei again.
"You know, just watching you and Lin Yifei acting together, I think you are the Jin Yanxi I imagined when I wrote the script." Liu Guoquan said with a smile.
This sentence was quite powerful. At least everyone who heard it was stunned, especially Nie Wei. He never thought that he would be praised so highly by Liu Guoquan.
"Thank you for the praise from Editor-in-Chief Liu. I am still a newcomer and have a lot to learn." Nie Wei responded with a humble attitude.
"Haha, keep going." Liu Guoquan smiled and patted Nie Wei's shoulder to encourage him. His appreciation was beyond words.
Without talking much, after praising Nie Wei, Liu Guoquan left with the group.
Looking at Liu Guoquan's back, Nie Wei, who was praised by the chief screenwriter, was not happy at all. Instead, he felt that this matter was full of weirdness.
"Why, you are so stupid because of the praise from the screenwriter. Come on and act with me. We will shoot soon. I think I haven't practiced well enough." Lin Yifei saw that Nie Wei was a little dazed, so she naughtily waved her hand in front of him.
"I see, really, how much money did I owe you in my previous life." Nie Wei smiled bitterly, temporarily put aside the doubts in his heart, and continued to help Lin Yifei rehearse.
I have to say that when Nie Wei patiently guides someone to get into the state, it is really amazing.
Just like Lin Yifei now, she has only rehearsed with Nie Wei for more than half an hour, and her understanding of this scene is already quite profound. At least now when she is in front of the camera to perform, as long as she can be 80% of the state when she was rehearsing with Nie Wei, it is enough for her to complete this part of the scene excellently.
Soon Shu Chang also came to the set, and the three of them went through the scene several times from the beginning, which helped Lin Yifei to have a good foundation in her heart.
During the rehearsal of Nie Wei, Lin Yifei and Shu Chang, the words that Liu Guoquan praised Nie Wei in person had spread throughout the set, and there was a trend of getting more and more exaggerated.
Originally, Liu Guoquan just said that Nie Wei was the person who best matched Jin Yanxi in his mind, but in the end, it became that Liu Guoquan wanted to support Nie Wei as the protagonist. Although this sounded quite unreliable, it was really popular. At least most people thought that Liu Guoquan appreciated Nie Wei more between Cheng Kun and Nie Wei.
After separating from Lin Xiaoli, Liu Guoquan and Li Dawei came to the small room where the director rested. Almost as soon as the door was closed, Li Dawei immediately asked anxiously why his mother said that in front of Nie Wei.
"What do you know?" Liu Guoquan rolled his eyes at Li Dawei and explained, "You are a new director. Cheng Kun is the most popular artist in recent years. With your qualifications, you may not be able to suppress him in the crew. If I help you, others will say that you rely on your mother again, so I must suppress Cheng Kun's morale and let him know that he is not a special existence in this crew, so that it will be convenient for you to establish your authority."
Li Dawei opened his mouth wide when he heard it. He didn't expect that there were so many tricks in his mother's words. It turns out that the old ones are still the best.
"But what about Nie Wei? Isn't this just giving him more enemies for no reason?" Li Dawei suddenly worried again.
"Just take care of yourself. The better you control the crew, the more you can take care of him, right?" At the end, Liu Guoquan suddenly smiled and said, "And in my opinion, his relationship with Cheng Kun is not as harmonious as you think."
The two chatted in the cabin without anyone knowing, so the rumors on the set still revolved around Liu Guoquan's previous words. After spreading too much, it was inevitably heard by some people with ulterior motives, such as Zhang Deye, the special assistant next to Cheng Kun.
In fact, when Zhang Deye first heard this sentence, his first impression was gloating. Now, compared to the degree of his dislike for Nie Wei, he hated Cheng Kun more. That slap in the face on his face completely trampled on his dignity.
As for Cheng Kun's kindness to him before, it had long been thrown out of the window after that slap.
Although the rumor was already unreliable when he heard it, it did not hinder Zhang Deye's thoughts, because from the attitude of the director that day, it was obvious that Nie Wei was not someone who could be easily provoked, and he knew Cheng Kun's habits very well. He knew that if he passed this rumor to Cheng Kun, even if Cheng Kun believed only three of them, he would definitely feel disgusted with Nie Wei.
At that time, as long as Cheng Kun went to trouble Nie Wei, he would surely not tolerate it with his temper. It would be best if the two of them fought each other. Wouldn't the fisherman benefit from the quarrel between the snipe and the clam?
Zhang Deye had completely forgotten that he was Cheng Kun's assistant and that they were a union of prosperity and prosperity. His heart had long been blinded by hatred, and he only thought about how to avenge the slap.
With the news, Zhang Deye immediately returned to Cheng Kun's lounge. When they came out again, Cheng Kun's eyes were already a little bit unfriendly.
Nie Wei, on the other hand, had just rehearsed the last scene for Lin Yifei and Shu Chang. The most important thing was to help Lin Yifei find her position. After all, she had no acting experience and it was easy for her to walk out of the camera during the scene with movement.
"Cheng Kun will definitely walk in front of you at that time. Just walk close to his side. Don't be too far or too close. Just about an arm's length will do." Nie Wei even pulled Lin Yifei to demonstrate how to walk this section of the road.
"Okay, I remember it." Lin Yifei frowned and thought about it for a while, and confirmed that she had remembered the key points before saying.
"Then you and Shu Chang should practice the lines again. I have something to do." Nie Wei looked at his watch. Liu Yuan came to Tianjin today to sign the contract for the seventh and eighth novels with him, and also to discuss publishing.
Nie Wei greeted the two beautiful girls and was about to leave the set, but when he was halfway there, he saw Cheng Kun and Zhang Deye walking towards him.
Nie Wei smiled and stretched out his hand to say hello, but Cheng Kun only glanced at him lightly, and then walked away as if he didn't see anyone.
Looking at his outstretched hand, Nie Wei smiled faintly, took it back naturally, and left the set without saying anything.
The contract with Liu Yuan went very smoothly. In fact, the conditions had been negotiated long ago, and only Nie Wei's autograph was needed. After the signing, Liu Yuan wanted to treat Nie Wei to a meal, but thinking that he had his own scenes to shoot in the afternoon, Nie Wei still refused.
However, when Nie Wei returned to the set, he found that the atmosphere on the scene was particularly solemn.
"Brother, you are finally back." Nie Wei, who hadn't figured out the reason yet, saw Shu Chang walking towards him with an anxious face.
