1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 197: Opportunity is not to be missed, and the relationship is involved

As long as there is a summer scene, the shooting is very fast, and it is normal to exceed expectations.

Originally, the crew reserved a week for Xia Tian, from the beginning of the fitting to the end of the filming.

In the end, even though the filming was delayed many times and a lot of extra shots were taken, it only took four days.

On the fifth day, summer will return to Beijing!

The exterior scenes of Yingchoujian have been shot here, although there are still some interior scenes, such as the underwater hiding place of the little white dragon, but those will have to be shot together later.

When the time comes, we will shoot in Yanjing, with indoor sets, it will be very simple.

So, in the summer, I bought some things as gifts in the local area, especially tea, and packed my bag and left.

Li Chengru looked regretful: "Tian'er, you've only been here for two days and you're leaving! Don't you want to take a look around? It took a lot of effort to get here."

"Brother, I'll keep you company, and it's also a good opportunity to take a break. Whenever I see a pretty girl, my head hurts! I think I've developed an occupational disease!"

Xia Tian smiled: "I'll just send you to the army for two months. When you come out and see a woman, you'll think she's pretty!"

"I'm about to start school, so I won't delay any longer. I'll go back early..."

"Huangfeng Ridge, eight hundred miles long, is full of sniper rifles. Three Gatling guns at the start, leaving Tianming nowhere to hide..." Xia Tian hummed a little tune that Li Chengru couldn't understand and got on the train.

If you don't go back, Milan will be so anxious that he will crawl along the telephone line~
……

After returning home, it goes without saying that the short separation is better than a new marriage. Milan specially took a day off and "died generously"~
Then Xia Tian distributed the little gifts that she had brought back.

The strange thing is that this time, Dachun was not interested in Hu Jianlai's food and looked like he had something to complain about.

Xia Tian asked, "What's wrong with you? What's going on? Why are you so troubled?"

Dachun looked around, pulled Xiatian to a place where there was no one around, and took out a slightly wrinkled letter.

In order to prevent his mother from finding out, he kept the letter with him every day and read it over and over again.

This made Chun's mother wonder if Dachun had violated the law. Why was he so stealing? Did he steal someone else's cabbage?!

Xia Tian took a quick look and realized it was written by Guo Xiaozhen. I understand!

"What's the problem?"

"I, I...I don't know what to do!" Dachun looked happily troubled.

Dachun: How should I reply? I don’t know what to write!

Xia Tian thought about it and decided to inspire Dachun's wise yet foolish half.

Once you get the hang of this kind of thing, you should be able to get the hang of it quickly.

Xia Tian advised earnestly: "Just write: You see the flowers in the flowerbed blooming, you miss her! You see the clouds in the sky changing, you miss her..."

Soon, Dachun's letter was mailed and the reply arrived.

Xiao Guo replied very promptly and straightforwardly, without any hesitation.

The letter read: Did Xia Tian teach you this? If you don't want him to teach you, just write it yourself. Don't tell him!
Dachun: Okay, I’ll listen to you!
Xia Tian: Zhuo! When we become friends, throw the matchmaker aside! He has no humanity when it comes to the opposite sex!

Fortunately, he also had the letters from Xiaoxu and Zhangli. Not only him, but also Milan.

Milan is very good at making friends with these girls, and soon they become like her best friends.

……

When Xia Tian came back, it was already mid-August, and by this time makeup artist Yang Shuyun had officially joined the crew.

He has also shown his skills~
The original candidate for the role of Lady Jia was unable to take part because she had too many plays to perform and her schedule didn't fit, so Director Wang asked Li Ting, who was originally supposed to play the role of Nun Jingxu, to give it a try.

Li Ting is 61 years old this year. She teaches a marginal course - pronunciation correction, which is considered part of the lines course.

Of course I cherish this opportunity very much.

But when Li Ting first joined the crew, she had just returned from Gulangyu Island after filming a TV series, and her skin was made rough and dark by the sea breeze!

Plus, she has triangular eyes, and her appearance is very different from that of Lady Jia. She is not kind-hearted - she played the villainous old lady in the previous TV series.

But after Yang Shuyun put on makeup, she looked completely different!

She transformed from a dark and fat Li Ting into a graceful and elegant "ancestor of the Jia family".

After Director Wang read it, he said, "It has great potential." The role was thus confirmed.

During this period, Xia Tian would go to the crew whenever she was free to discuss costume color matching with Shi Yanqin and learn makeup from Dayang.

During this period, a very important thing happened...

Although the construction of the Grand View Garden has begun, another important exterior scene has not yet been finalized.

It is the ancient street outside the Jia Mansion. Many shots require this location, and there is no place to modify it, so it can only be built.

Originally, Ren Dahui visited various scenic spots in Yanjing and chose a playground of a certain army unit for the construction. But just as the deal was made, Redology consultant Yang Naiji brought his leaders to find Ren Dahui and said that they hoped the crew could go there to build the real scene.

Originally, Ren Dahui declined the offer due to the specific circumstances. But Xia Tian urged him: "Director Ren, you can describe the cultural industry to the leaders there - it will be a famous tourist attraction in the future. We can use our TV series to make them famous, and add a special thank you at the end of the cast list. Ask them to help us more."

"Our TV series will surely be loved by audiences across the country. As a tourist attraction, the people's spiritual and cultural needs will surely increase..."

I went to Ren Dahui's place and found the conditions there to be quite good. Although it was a little far from Yanjing, it was acceptable.

He also recounted what Xia Tian had said.

The young cadre over there heard it and said: Hmm? Great idea! Something! So he asked.

Ren Dahui said, "Oh, that's what the young people in our crew said. Xia Tian, have you seen it on TV?"

"Oh, I've seen it, celebrities!"

……

It is September now and the second training course is about to begin.

Xia Tian has already made an appointment with friends from the crew to meet at that time.

July 9, Sunday.

Xia Tian, Milan, and Da Chun went to the train station to pick up people. In the morning, they picked up Xiao Xu and Zhang Li, and in the afternoon, they picked up Guo Xiao Zhen and Deng Jie...

As soon as Xiaoxu got off the bus, he saw Xia Tianmilan and the others on the platform. He immediately ran over happily with open arms.

Xia Tian smiled, and then saw her throw herself into Milan's arms, laughing and jumping.

After more than half an hour, Zhang Li also got off the bus, walked towards Xia Tian with sparkling eyes, then took Milan's hand and said...

Xia Tian: You two agreed on this, right? You must have done it on purpose!
Although we have been writing to each other frequently during this period, we haven't seen each other for two months after all, and we miss each other very much. We have a lot to talk about...

The Red Mansion training course has started again, and all the actors will arrive in the next one or two days.

The location of the training class was changed this time, to Badachu in Xishan. The living conditions and food were much better.

Not to mention anything else, the dormitory area alone is much larger and there are cabinets.

Xia Tian and Milan went to Xiaoxu's dormitory and took out several magazines from their bags.

Milan smiled and said, "Hey, take a look! It's really photogenic~"

A copy of "China Radio and Television", with Xiao Xu on the cover and Zhang Li on the back cover. Inside the pages there are "The Beauties of A Dream of Red Mansions", comic strips, and graphic reports about A Dream of Red Mansions.

"Oh!" Xiao Xu quickly took it, looked at the picture carefully, and looked a little embarrassed.

"Zhang Li, there's you too, look!" She pointed at Zhang Li on the back cover.

Milan laughed, and laughed like a fox eating a chicken, "There's more!"

Xiaoxu also appeared on the cover of "Literary Appreciation", and he also has a copy of "Liaoning Youth", after all, it is a publication from his hometown.

There is also an article about Xiaoxu, describing her psychological changes after she was chosen to play Lin Daiyu. It was written after an interview with her.

The support from my hometown is still very strong!

The whole country was already paying close attention to "A Dream of Red Mansions" and "Journey to the West". After the "hype" of guidance in the summer, we could see information about them every now and then, and we were itching to watch them.

It can be said that it became popular before it was even filmed!

Xia Tian smiled and asked, "Are you very proud?"

Xiao Xu raised his chin and said, "I got into the magazine based on my own ability, and I'm not allowed to be proud of it!"

Although Zhang Li didn't say anything, she was also very excited.

I don’t know why, but Milan was also very excited.

No, why are you excited?!

On the other side, Guo Xiaozhen and Dachun were also chatting.

Xiao Guo is not a shy person, and Dachun always looks "obedient", so she usually leads the conversation.

Guo Xiaozhen: How come you don’t talk as much when we meet as you do in your letters?

She took the initiative and asked, "Did you eat before you came?"

Dachun: “I ate it.”

"What do you want to eat?"
