Rebirth of the stand-in star

"If you want to be popular? You have to do it! You have to do it to your death! You have to hype it! Whether it's good news or a scandal, you must maintain the exposure rate in the media at all times! Understand?"

Jiang Fengqiao froze for a moment, then nodded speechlessly.

He was about to graduate from the Film Academy in two months, and he had just signed a contract with Taifa Entertainment, but he didn't have his own exclusive agent, so he could only submit audition applications everywhere.

There was an audition for a TV drama today. Among a bunch of actors, a guy who looked like a public relations officer suddenly appeared, and caught a group of young actors talking about how to become famous. It sounds reasonable, but his purpose It is obvious.

"If you want, our studio can create a series of news for you, and package it for you in all directions, so that you can occupy the topic list of domestic websites in a short period of time. We can also pull the covers of magazines and newspapers for you, and do various This kind of interview! Soon, you will be popular!" the eloquent said.

Jiang Fengqiao was impatient to listen. The actors in front had already entered the audition room, and it was his turn soon. "Thanks, I don't need the hype."

The person in the public relations studio probably was often rejected, so he didn't care. He found another actor and began to persuade him.

Jiang Fengqiao sank his thoughts and began to recall the script introduction he had just seen, trying to figure out the psychology of the role in the audition.

When it was his turn, he walked into the audition room, bowed and greeted the director and screenwriter very politely, and began to perform his own performance.

He was very involved, and his simple actions and lines seemed to bring people into that scene.

The "examiner" sitting above whispered to each other and evaluated in a low voice, and they were all very satisfied.

After Jiang Fengqiao's performance ended, the director said, "You are very good. You should have made sufficient preparations before coming here.... Are you a graduate of the Film Academy?"

"I'm graduating this year." Jiang Fengqiao said immediately.

The director nodded, "Okay, you go back and wait for the notice."

Jiang Fengqiao knew that his hope was at least [-]%, and was very happy. He bowed again and went out.

At this time, he was still very young and full of expectations for the future.

In this TV series, he got the role of the male number three. With his handsome, healthy and clean image, and his serious and dedicated acting skills from a professional background, maybe the male number three in this drama happens to be a very pleasing character. That's why, after Jiang Fengqiao's performance, he received a lot of praise and attention from the industry.

Some viewers even noticed him, specially posted his photos on the Internet, and automatically wrote a lot of comments for him.

Since he is a promising artist, it is naturally impossible for the company not to pay attention to him.Not long after, he got his own manager, Jiang Ning, who was a gentle-looking man. From then on, he no longer needed to recommend himself when he took on roles. red play.

……

"Ha, look what I brought!" Jiang Fengqiao walked into the set with a big bag of ice cream and ice cream, and warmly greeted the actors of the same crew, "Everyone, come and eat popsicles!"

After the TV series that caused a lot of discussion on the Internet for him, he took on the lead role of another TV series under Jiang Ning's suggestion.

There are quite a few young actors in this drama, all of them are young and beautiful, and they are always laughing and laughing when they are together.

As soon as they heard that there was ice cream, several people ran up and said with a smile: "Fengqiao, thank you!"

"Thank you!" Jiang Fengqiao handed them the bag, took out two from it, walked to the shadow, and found Luan Fei who was sitting there, "Hey, eat popsicles."

"Thank you." Luan Fei was not pretentious, took it, peeled off the wrapping paper and took a bite, "Isn't there no role for you this afternoon? Why did you come here? It's such a hot day."

"Hey, I'm fine by myself, I can still study here." Jiang Fengqiao also bit the popsicle.He is still a young actor, and he especially likes to watch other actors act and learn from them.

Luan Fei narrowed his eyes and looked at him with a smile.The chocolate sorbet left a touch of color on his lips, which looked a little gaudy.

Jiang Fengqiao stared blankly for a second before turning his gaze away.

In the same crew, Jiang Fengqiao liked to talk to Luan Fei because he had an inexplicable affection for this young man.

The two of them stood together, equally handsome, tall, strong and unrestrained, but Jiang Fengqiao was more motivated, smiling and passionate all day long.He has the conditions to be popular, and the desire to be popular.

In contrast, Luan Fei was slightly weaker in this regard.He is just an unimportant small supporting role, and he is not too competitive.He doesn't like to get in front of people very much, but his popularity is very good.

Jiang Fengqiao also likes to stay with Luan Fei from time to time. When there is no role in the show, he will also make appointments to drink, drink, and eat barbecue together. After going back and forth, the two became very good friends.

Someone in the crew joked: "You two really look like twins."

Jiang Fengqiao and Luan Fei looked at each other and laughed together.

After the play was over, Jiang Fengqiao quickly got good news from Jiang Ning - there was a film's first male supporting role, which was very suitable for him.

In Huaguo's entertainment circle, there is an unwritten rule that those who act in movies are more qualified than those who act in TV dramas, and everyone wants to get into the movie circle with their heads sharpened.

Of course, Jiang Fengqiao was no exception.Acting in movies, you get more honors than TV dramas, and you even get more opportunities for advertising endorsements.

Therefore, Jiang Fengqiao put a lot of expectations into this movie and this role.However, when he learned that Luan Fei was among the competitors, he became uneasy.

"There is Luan Fei..."

Jiang Fengqiao understood Luan Fei's strength. The young man did not show his talents, but he had professional acting skills that were not inferior to him. After all, Luan Fei also graduated from an authentic film academy.It may be that he is really lazy and doesn't like to make money, so he always gives people a very indifferent feeling.

Jiang Ning encouraged Jiang Fengqiao, "Don't be nervous, this role can be said to be tailor-made for you. A male number two who is infatuated and powerful is much more pleasing than a male number one who always misunderstands the heroine."

Jiang Fengqiao was a little unconfident, "I know this role is very good. But... I have nothing to fear from other audition candidates, but if it is Luan Fei... I'm not sure."

When it comes to the acting skills of the two, it can be said that they are evenly matched.Jiang Fengqiao's uncertainty was an indescribable affection for Luan Fei from the bottom of his heart.If this goodwill was at work, there was no guarantee that he would not be a little shaken during the audition.

"What, Luan Fei? Do you think he's very good?" Jiang Ning knew about this actor, and he was also a signed artist of Taifa, but he didn't get as much attention as Jiang Fengqiao.

"It's not..." Jiang Fengqiao didn't know what to say.He shook his head, and suddenly thought of something, "Brother Jiang, the director of this play, uh, doesn't he... have some special hobbies?"

Jiang Ning's face changed, "Fengqiao, you don't need to do that, and none of the artists in our company need to do that. As long as you perform well, what should be yours is yours."

"But I'm just a little guilty." Jiang Fengqiao raked his hair, "Maybe, I should talk to the director?"

Jiang Ning saw the struggle in his eyes, but didn't speak.The path chosen by each actor is different. Those with a background can rely on many methods to rise to the top; those without a background, like Jiang Fengqiao, can choose to be down-to-earth and slow down, or they can choose to find a backer, or rely on special channels and unspoken rules. class early.It depends on what the individual is after.

If Jiang Fengqiao insisted on doing this, Jiang Ning couldn't say anything, after all, this young man was indeed too ambitious.

Jiang Fengqiao thought about it for a whole week, and finally gave up on going to the director in private.After all, once this kind of thing starts, the subsequent development will not be controlled.He didn't want to feel remorse when he recalled this past many years later, and he didn't want to leave a stain and let others chew on his tongue in the future.Public figures must have the self-consciousness to maintain their image.Jiang Fengqiao firmly believed that he could stand out, so he cherished feathers very much from now on.

Before the audition, Jiang Fengqiao never called Luan Fei.They often hang out and eat together, this time he resisted not contacting each other because he didn't want to put pressure on both parties before the audition.

Unexpectedly, on the day of the audition, Jiang Fengqiao did not see Luan Fei at the scene.At first, he was worried that Luan Fei missed the event, was late or something, but until the end, Luan Fei didn't show up.Jiang Fengqiao's performance was undoubtedly outstanding among a group of young actors.The director left him alone and chatted with him for a long time, showing interest in him in his eyes, and a vague temptation in his words.

But Jiang Fengqiao pretended not to understand or understand everything, and Jiang Ning helped him out, diverting the topic, and finally didn't let the director mention those unnecessary topics.

As soon as he left the audition hotel, Jiang Fengqiao immediately called Luan Fei.

"Why didn't you come today?"

Luan Fei paused, as if it took him a long time to understand what he was talking about, "Oh, you said a movie audition! I rejected this role."

"Why?" Jiang Fengqiao was puzzled.He saw that among the group of actors who came today, apart from himself, there were really no distinctive actors.If Luan Fei came over, the two of them would definitely be the biggest bright spots. At least the director would not decide to play this role so quickly, and would definitely think about it.

Luan Fei's tone was very relaxed, "No reason, I don't like that character very much, so I pushed it away."

Jiang Fengqiao took a deep breath, closed his eyes, "Is this your truth?"

Luan Fei said, "Of course."

Jiang Fengqiao followed up and asked, "Didn't you want to give up this role to me?"

Luan Fei laughed, "How come..."

Jiang Fengqiao didn't believe him at all, "Tell me honestly, did you give in on purpose?"

It took several seconds for Luan Fei to reply, "Okay, let me tell the truth. I did give up because I heard that you were also competing for the role. But it is definitely not what you think. After knowing it is you, I will I understand that I have no hope of winning this role at all....Instead of being defeated by you in the end and losing this opportunity, I might as well quit first, at least it won't be so ugly, don't you think? Hehehe..."

Jiang Fengqiao was taken aback by what he said, "You really think so?"

"Of course," Luan Fei's voice sounded quite comfortable, "Do you think, if I competed with you and was eliminated because of you, how embarrassing would it be? I might as well quit early, the beauty of being an adult, maybe you You can give me a favor."

Jiang Fengqiao finally smiled, "Okay, since you said so, then I will accept your favor. Let's have dinner together tomorrow?"

Luan Fei laughed loudly on the other end of the phone, "Okay!"

Hearing his hearty laughter, the corners of Jiang Fengqiao's mouth kept curling up, even after he hung up the phone.

He understood what Luan Fei meant. Although they were all the same, they all quit because of him, but the meaning was different.What Luan Fei meant was that he didn't give in to him, but that he knew he couldn't compete, so he withdrew first to save face.These two feelings are different.

The next day, he invited Luan Fei to a seafood dinner. After the meal, the two young men went to the bar again.None of them thought of finding other friends to accompany them, and they chatted until very late before going home.

Jiang Fengqiao didn't remember anything else that night, except that Luan Fei could laugh so wantonly and with high spirits.

……

Two years later, the psychological suspense action film "Dissociation" starring Jiang Fengqiao became an instant hit, and his superb performance in the film was simply jaw-dropping.The ingenious conception and unexpected resolution of the whole film amazed everyone who watched the film.

With this film, he won the "Best Actor Award" at three domestic film festivals and the Cannes Film Festival that year, that is, four titles of actor!

The young Jiang Fengqiao was in the limelight for a while.

However, the trouble is that Jiang Fengqiao's agent, Jiang Ning, has another Shidi in his hands.This was a good thing in the first place. He has outstanding abilities and abundant resources. The actors he brought in were all very promising, especially Jiang Fengqiao and that Shidi.However, the titles of "Movie King" and "Shi King" bring more advertisements, events and announcements, higher appearance prices and more careful itinerary planning, which requires double and double thought.

And Jiang Ning also happened to get married back then. For the sake of the two emperors, he didn't even have much time to accompany the bride, and he didn't even have a honeymoon. After getting married, he left the bride at home for three months and couldn't go back.

The virtuous Mrs. Jiang didn't say anything, but Jiang Ning's parents and the bride's parents called him several times and scolded him.

Jiang Ning seemed a bit overwhelmed.

Seeing this scene, both Jiang Fengqiao and Shidi were quick-witted. They couldn't bear to see Brother Jiang so busy, but they couldn't bear Brother Jiang's experience and resources when looking for an agent again.Jiang Ning was also in a dilemma for a while, the two actors were brought out by himself, and he was a bit unwilling to give up the other.But he didn't care about money issues, but he had a very good relationship with the two actors.

Jiang Fengqiao had taken on several plays in the past two years, and he was so busy filming that he couldn't stop.After winning the actor, he had a few vacations, so he found a few friends to go clubbing together.

Naturally, he also called Luan Fei.Luan Fei has never become popular, and he plays a small role in one or two TV dramas a year, just playing around casually.But he didn't care at all, and his mind was not on it.Hearing that Jiang Fengqiao was going to go clubbing, he smiled and said, "Then what other place are you looking for? Come over to my place. I just opened a bar with my friend. Wouldn't it be brilliant for you, Jiang Yingdi, to come over?"

When Jiang Fengqiao heard this, he felt a little weird, "Xiao Fei, are you running a bar? Why aren't you acting?"

"Acting is also possible, but I don't think it's interesting." Luan Fei's mind has never been in the entertainment industry, "I am more free. But you, congratulations for winning the best actor!"

The author has something to say: put it up first, and there will be a free tail later.Haven't caught bugs yet.
