Chapter 222 220. New Year's Plan (Two in One)

Wang Baoqiang felt awkward because the two people sitting next to him were both big stars. Liu Dehua was okay. After getting to know him for a while, she was quite considerate of him.

On the contrary, Nie Wei, an artist of the same age but with a completely different star path, gave him a strong sense of inferiority.

In fact, the two people really took two completely different paths.

Nie Wei is a typical academic school, graduated from the best film school in the country, while Wang Baoqiang is indeed a complete wild road, and his background was outside the gate of Kyoto Film Studio.

The appearance of the two people is also completely opposite.

Nie Wei is a typical handsome guy, an urban man, on the contrary, Wang Baoqiang can only be described as "ugly", his whole body is rustic, and he is a little anxious. Although he is almost the same age as Nie Wei, he looks older than Nie Wei at first glance.

In addition, the star paths of the two people are also completely different.

Nie Weiwei debuted as the leading actor, and then became a big star, and he was successful all the way. On the contrary, Wang Baoqiang was just a minor actor. He finally filmed "Blind Shaft" and won the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer, but few people know him. No one asked him for an autograph on the street. Of course, he himself did not regard himself as a star, and he had never tasted what it was like to be famous.

Looking at Nie Wei, who was dressed brightly and was obviously wearing famous brands, it was normal for Wang Baoqiang to feel awkward.

After feeling awkward, Wang Baoqiang felt a little proud again.

Once upon a time, he was just a man who could sleep on the tree branches outside the Kyoto Film Studio. Now, he can sit next to the big star and the king in a train compartment and listen to their conversation. Although he could not interrupt, he was satisfied just listening, even though he did not understand much of what Nie Wei and Liu Dehua were saying.

Wang Baoqiang, who was a little uneasy and proud, gradually had his eyelids drooping and felt sleepy.

"Baoqiang?" Suddenly, a call came from his ear. Wang Baoqiang shivered and looked back. He saw Liu Dehua and Nie Wei looking at him. His face turned red and nervous.

"It seems that my silly brother is sleepy." Liu Dehua smiled heartily. He didn't care about Wang Baoqiang's distraction. Instead, he asked with concern: "Do you want to go to the side and sleep for a while? We still have to rush to the night scene today."

After that, without waiting for Wang Baoqiang to answer, he called the assistant next to him and asked him to lend his blanket to Wang Baoqiang.

"Brother, I'm not sleepy, and I haven't passed the scene just now. I'll think about how to shoot it." Wang Baoqiang hurriedly shook his hand to refuse. Although he was a little sleepy, he really didn't dare to sleep. After all, he still remembered Feng Xiaogang's roar just now.

"That's right. I just saw Director Xiaogang almost didn't wash Brother Baoqiang's face." Nie Weiyi was happy to hear Wang Baoqiang say that and remembered the scene just now.

Liu Dehua didn't know what was going on, so he asked Wang Baoqiang and Nie Wei. Wang Baoqiang was embarrassed to say it and didn't understand it very well. In the end, Nie Wei, who had better narrative ability, explained it to Liu Dehua.

"Hahaha, what's there to be embarrassed about? I was scolded a lot when I acted in the past, and I still make mistakes now. It's good to know the mistakes and correct them. Otherwise, you act now and I'll see what's wrong." Nie Wei could see that Liu Dehua really admired Wang Baoqiang and wanted to give him some advice on the spot.

But things didn't go as planned. Before Wang Baoqiang could act, Director Xiaogang called Liu Dehua to act with Milk Tea.

Wang Baoqiang, standing in the aisle, was embarrassed to see Liu Dehua's back as he left.

"If you trust me, I'll show you?" Nie Wei asked with a smile, looking at Wang Baoqiang who was standing in the aisle and was a little overwhelmed.

Wang Baoqiang scratched the back of his head, smiled foolishly and nodded, rolling his eyes, making Nie Wei dizzy.

Although this guy looked silly, he was unexpectedly "smart" in the subsequent performance and questions. This smartness means that he can always hit the shortcomings of himself when asking questions, and after Nie Wei said it once or twice, the other party can basically understand the meaning, and it will not be a big problem to perform a few more times.

Moreover, Nie Wei can see that Wang Baoqiang's "poor" acting skills at this moment are mostly what he has learned from life. Although sometimes not very smart, it is full of a sense of naturalness, which makes people feel harmonious at a glance, and there will be no feeling of acting, which will be very real, and this kind of acting has a sense of great wisdom and foolishness.

Perhaps this is why he was able to move the entire Chinese fans with the role of "Shagen" after the release of this movie, because he is really interpreting this role with his heart.

Wang Baoqiang and I chatted while teaching, and we got to know each other. However, Director Feng never came, and the play was not filmed, so there was no way to test the results of Nie Wei's teaching.

Soon, it was time for dinner, and Director Feng directly sent a message, serving the food!

"Brother, what do you want to eat? I'll get it for you." When Wang Baoqiang heard that the food was served, his eyes lit up, and then he looked at Nie Wei and asked enthusiastically.

Luo Kai's eyes widened on the side, is this guy trying to steal his job?

However, Nie Wei admired Wang Baoqiang's attitude. Although the other party played the role of "Shagen", he was really not stupid, and he was very sophisticated. Such a small move was undoubtedly an alternative way to make friends, which could bring the two sides closer. Obviously, if he was really a fool, he would never think of doing this.

"No need, Baoqiang, you do your thing, I'm not hungry yet, I'll eat later." Although he admired Wang Baoqiang's attitude, Nie Wei still declined.

"Oh, that's fine, but if you go too late, the lunch boxes will be gone, brother, you have to hurry up, if it doesn't work, you can take it first and eat it later." Wang Baoqiang didn't force Nie Wei, but he didn't forget to remind him a few times, and then he ran to grab the lunch box "reluctantly".

"Silly guy, doesn't he know that the stars' lunch boxes are specific?" Luo Kai couldn't help complaining as he watched Wang Baoqiang run away.

"You are really stupid, lunch boxes are secondary, people are just showing you a close and flattering attitude." Nie Wei squinted at Luo Kai and explained.

Reminded by Nie Weiyi, Luo Kai also came to his senses. Looking at the direction where Wang Baoqiang had disappeared long ago, he couldn't help but sighed: "This kid is not as stupid as he seems."

"Haha, that's not stupid, that's simple. If he was a fool, he would have been eaten up by this society long ago. How could he get ahead from a bunch of extras? But I can see that he has a good heart, a little smart, and is good at pleasing people. You can see from Liu Tianwang's attitude towards him that he is a man who knows how to deal with things, but he has no malice, it's just a means of survival, and he is also quite talented in acting. I think he can get ahead." Nie Wei commented with a smile, with affirmation in his tone of voice for Wang Baoqiang.

How can he not be sure? After all, he has long known that Wang Baoqiang will become one of the big names of mainland comedy stars in the future.

Luo Kai, who was standing aside, was shocked. He didn't expect Nie Wei to give such a high evaluation to this silly-looking guy. However, Luo Kai has always trusted Nie Wei's vision, and at this time, he couldn't help but look down on Wang Baoqiang a little less.

On the other side, after Wang Baoqiang got his lunch box, he ran directly to the place where the extras were having dinner.

"Baoqiang, come here."

"Baoqiang, come over here, I got the pork chop rice today, let's share it."

"Baoqiang, come over here, I've saved a place for you."

In the extras, Wang Baoqiang enjoyed the treatment of a star. Everyone greeted him enthusiastically, and Wang Baoqiang also had a bright smile on his face, showing his big white teeth.

Compared with dating with Nie Wei and Liu Dehua, he still felt that this place was more comfortable.

He found a seat, surrounded by people he knew on weekdays. He came from this circle. Although he is now a little bit successful, he is not too far away from these extras, so as soon as he sat down, someone couldn't wait to ask him for news.

"Isn't that Nie Wei?"

"Yes, it's Nie Wei. He chatted with me and gave me guidance in acting." Wang Baoqiang replied with a smile, with a sense of pride in his tone.

"Oh, you are so lucky, Nie Wei is so popular recently, his ads are everywhere in the streets, and you see that the mineral water we drink is endorsed by him." A group actor said with envy when he heard that Nie Wei also gave Wang Baoqiang acting guidance.

"The bus I took last time also had his ads printed on it."

"Don't talk about the bus, aren't the backlit billboards at the bus station also full of his ads?"

"And the LED big screen in the center building, I saw it the other day, with a female star, a very beautiful one, I envy her to death."

The group of actors started talking about Baoqiang, but the topic deviated as they talked, gradually focusing on Nie Wei's recent popular works and ads, and neglected Wang Baoqiang on the side.

Gnawing on the chicken leg, Wang Baoqiang did not participate in the YY of these people. I don't know if it was because of his contact with Nie Wei, but at this moment, everything in his colleagues' words made Wang Baoqiang suddenly have a sense of ambition in his heart. He, who usually didn't have a big goal, suddenly found a goal.

That is to be as famous as Nie Wei, and then have products and advertisements endorsed by him in every corner of the city.

Of course, this wish is still hidden in the child's heart at the moment. He dare not say it, for fear of being laughed at by others, but once this person has a goal, he will have a direction to do things.

During the afternoon shooting, Director Feng saw that Wang Baoqiang's spirit and spirit had changed again. He seemed to be more motivated, and surprisingly, he had a tendency to rely on Nie Wei. Whenever he had time, he would run to Nie Wei's side, either to ask for advice on acting or to chat. Fortunately, Nie Wei was not annoying and was quite patient in guiding him, which made Feng Xiaogang happy to see it happen.

However, Wang Baoqiang couldn't do it for a long time. It was not that Nie Wei was impatient, but that Nie Wei's shooting had ended.

Although Feng Xiaogang had revised the script, it was really impossible for Nie Wei's role as a policeman to occupy the main part. After all, this was a story about a "thief". It was not him, the policeman, who ran through the main line and guided the plot, but the simple Sha Gen. He only did a finishing job.

And to be honest, this role is really not difficult for Nie Wei. The number of NGs he made in a week is not even counted on the palm of one hand. When filming Nie Wei, Feng Xiaogang basically passed it. For a while, Nie Wei's record of not making NGs became a very hot topic in the crew, and some people even made a bet for it privately.

Nie Wei's wonderful performance also surprised Feng Xiaogang secretly, because Nie Wei's progress in this aspect of film was obvious since his last guest appearance.

As for Wang Baoqiang, he had long been amazed by Nie Wei's performance, and he asked for advice more and more frequently.

In addition, Feng Xiaogang took care of Nie Wei, and Nie Wei's scenes were arranged very intensively, which was the main reason why it was finished in one week.

On the day of the final shooting, King Liu gave Nie Wei a small gift, a string of Buddhist beads. The reason was that he saw the string of beads on Nie Wei's wrist. At first, he thought Nie Wei was also a Buddhist believer, and then he learned the story behind the beads. Although it was a pity that Nie Wei and himself did not have the same faith, he thought that this might also be a kind of fate. Moreover, Nie Wei's understanding of Buddhism made him admire him very much, so he specially asked someone to bring a string of Buddhist beads that were said to be blessed by a monk from his home in Hong Kong and gave it to Nie Wei.

Nie Wei is a staunch atheist. He doesn't believe in anything blessed by a monk, but this is King Liu's kindness, so he still happily accepted it.

Feng Xiaogang and Liu Ruoying also gave Nie Wei some small gifts, all of which were quite interesting. For example, the milk tea was a handicraft bought in XZ, and Director Feng gave Nie Wei a voucher for his tea restaurant, asking Nie Wei to bring his friends to support the restaurant when he is free.

But the most interesting gift was Wang Baoqiang's.

"This is what I brought from my hometown. The chickens are free-range and eat insects. The eggs they lay are very fragrant. You can try it." Wang Baoqiang held up a plastic bag of eggs and took one out and handed it to Nie Wei.

A staff member saw this scene and couldn't help laughing. He was also very curious about how Nie Wei would respond.

But we can only say that these people think too much. Nie Wei didn't have any ideas at all. Seeing Wang Baoqiang handing the egg over, he took it and then peeled the skin and took a bite. It was really delicious. The egg white was firm and Q-elastic, and the egg yolk was soft and dense. The taste was very good.

"Delicious." Nie Wei praised, and then took out three more eggs from the plastic bag held by Wang Baoqiang without hesitation, handed two of them to Luo Kai and Luo Yuan respectively, kept one for himself, and then ate it in a few bites.

"You gave me these eggs, what do you eat?" After eating two eggs in a row, Nie Wei's stomach was a little full, so he didn't move anymore, but he asked Wang Baoqiang curiously.

"I'll ask my hometown to bring me more, no trouble." Wang Baoqiang was very happy that Nie Wei liked his eggs so much, and replied with a smile.

"Then ask your hometown to bring more, and then share some with me." Nie Wei smiled and patted Wang Baoqiang on the shoulder, and informed him: "You know my number, call me directly when the eggs arrive."

"No problem." Nie Wei's seemingly advantageous behavior made Wang Baoqiang feel very proud. Didn't he see that the staff who were eavesdropping on the side were dumbfounded? Is this the legendary egg diplomacy?

On the way back, Luo Kai ate the eggs happily, and mumbled: "This guy is quite humane, giving me eggs, haha, this is the first time I have received such a gift in all these years since I entered the industry."

"Isn't this good? It's real. Look how delicious you are eating it." Nie Wei glanced at Luo Kai and couldn't help complaining.

"Uh...try it, the eggs laid by free-range chickens are good, haha." Luo Kai swallowed the last bite of eggs, then put the rest aside and said with a smile.

"Brother Luo, I think there is something I want to tell you." Nie Wei suddenly spoke up when Luo Kai put the eggs away.

"What is it?" Luo Kai asked casually without taking it seriously.

"I took a job in private, but I don't know how to tell the company."

"Oh...oh!? What!?" Luo Kai's eyes suddenly widened, looking at Nie Wei, and asked in disbelief: "What job did you take in private? And behind the company's back?"

"A TV series, and I have an investment." Nie Wei did not hide it from Luo Kai, and said directly.

What he wanted to talk about was naturally the TV series "Legend of Sword and Fairy". Nie Wei had decided to play the leading role himself because he had a contract, and this matter obviously could not get over the hurdle of the company. The TV series will start shooting after the new year, and Nie Wei thinks he should inform Luo Kai in advance.

"Why didn't you discuss such a big thing with me?" Luo Kai frowned, but he was not too anxious. As long as it was not a private commercial performance, the company would not block the TV series.

However, thinking that Nie Wei is now developing well in the film industry, and suddenly jumping back to the TV industry, he always feels like he is going backwards. More importantly, this is a TV series adapted from a game. Although there are successful cases abroad, it is the first time in China. He has no idea whether it will work. He is afraid that if it goes wrong, Nie Wei's good development prospects will be disrupted.

"Isn't this just to discuss with you? The company still needs you to speak for it." Nie Wei directly threw the ball to Luo Kai, and Luo Kai had to catch it.

"Okay, I'll speak to the company, but are you sure that this TV series adapted from the game can really work?" Luo Kai confirmed again.

Before Nie Wei could answer, Luo Yuan, who was driving in front, spoke.

"Oh, I think it's okay. The game of Xianjian is quite fun, and the plot is also quite good. You don't have to worry."

"Really? Then I'll play it later." It's obviously not enough to just listen to others. Luo Kai thinks that he can understand the situation better after experiencing it personally.

While Nie Wei told Luo Kai about the filming of The Legend of Sword, Huaxia TV had already made the final adjustments to the promotional documentary of "The Forbidden City". This documentary will be officially broadcast on the eight TV drama channels under Huaxia TV tonight. At the same time, billboards of all sizes across the country have been bought by the Forbidden City. When the TV stations broadcast, these billboards will also be broadcast.

A documentary storm that will refresh the impression of the national audience is about to come...
