Chapter 25 The protagonist and the supporting role

Upon receiving the news from Director Qian Jin, Song Shuwen's brain suddenly buzzed, and his ears kept ringing like an old-fashioned FM radio.

Life simply played a nasty joke on him. He just wanted to finish shooting "Two People" and try to win an award with this movie, but he was told by the director in a blink of an eye that the movie was gone.

Song Shuwen calmed down for a while, and wanted to make another phone call with Director Qian Jin to confirm, but the phone on the other side had already been turned off, and finally Zhao Mingqi called him and asked him to talk to him tomorrow.

Song Shuwen, who was preoccupied, didn't sleep well at night, and went to Zhao Mingqi's private room in the teahouse early the next day with two dark circles under his eyes.And when he saw Zhao Mingqi, Song Shuwen didn't hesitate to be polite, and said straight to the point: "Just tell me what's going on."

"You should know that in order to make this film, Director Qian Jin reached an exchange with the senior management of the film and television company, that is, he will direct the urban drama starring the popular traffic, and then the company will allocate funds for him to make a film he wants. film."

"Yes, I know about it. Director Qian told me about it."

"But Lao Qian, I trust the executive of the film and television company who came out with him too much, so he only made a verbal gentleman's agreement, which was not implemented on paper. As a result, a while ago, the executive of the film and television company suddenly came After a big change, most of the projects set up by the previous senior executives have been stopped, let alone this gentleman's agreement."

Song Shuwen paused, raised his head and looked at Zhao Mingqi: "The new official has three fires when he takes office, so he has to burn all the flowers and plants planted by the previous one first?"

"Yes, that's the reason."

At this point, Zhao Mingqi took a sip from his teacup, and then said, "But to be honest, you are also partly responsible for the withdrawal of "Two People" from the project."

Song Shuwen was really stunned: "Why is this still my business? My reputation in the industry is all from playing supporting roles. What reason can I have as a supporting role?"

"Because of your supporting role."

Zhao Mingqi took another sip of tea, and revealed the secret to Song Shuwen: "The post-production of the urban drama filmed by director Qian Jin is almost over, and the company has also reviewed it internally. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Chen Fenglin's acting skills are terrible, and it all depends on the post-production training." Supporting the show with you as a supporting role. But this person is too popular, as long as a drama does not collapse, it can make money for the company no matter what, so the company wants to strike while the iron is hot, and make another drama for Chen Fenglin called "Soul Soul Order" "."

"Soul Requiem Order"?

Song Shuwen's mind went blank for a moment, didn't that mean that Li Yuqing took over the role of the male lead, and the manager Lao Xu also said that he had won an audition for himself...

Suddenly, a little understanding came to his mind, that's right, Li Yuqing said that the two male leads of this play had already been decided, and it was purely a cover for hype that he was still looking for actors to audition.And if I really go to the audition, there is a high probability that I will get a supporting role with a good role.

Zhao Mingqi kept looking at Song Shuwen while drinking tea, saw the change of expression on his face, and understood that he had already figured out the joints, so he said: "So now the problem comes, since the company decided to pile up resources in "Town How could it be possible to let a director who is very good at making such scenes and a supporting actor who can help Chen Fenglin act in some kind of literary film."

He analyzed very methodically: "Just wait, your agent should tell you soon that he has contacted you with a supporting role that plays an important role, and Chen Fenglin will also give priority to you when he makes another film in the future." Going to play a supporting role is called a co-star. But the label of a co-star... Anyway, once you put it on, you don’t want to take it off again. Even if you want to play the leading role or make a movie, the first choice of the director and the management My idea must be, isn’t this someone’s playmate? The one who plays a supporting role. We have a supporting role. Maybe we can ask him to try it. The protagonist... the protagonist will definitely not consider you. You have too many people who can pull box office, why do people think about you as a partner?"

"Originally, you should figure out the way to do it yourself. And your manager will [-]% think it's a good thing, and open his mouth to persuade you to act well. As for me, I actually have no position to analyze this or that for you. But our man has the right temper and the right way to act, so I feel that I have to call you out alone, and explain the twists and turns here to you in a nutshell."

Finally, Zhao Mingqi gave a dry laugh: "I've played supporting roles all my life in a daze, and at this age I've lived comfortably, so I don't have much intention to change the status quo. But you are different. I can see that you are really high-spirited. I really want to be an actor, make good movies, and make good movies, so I have to explain the way to you clearly, and then let you choose."

The decoration of this teahouse is very elegant, and all the private rooms are filled with mahogany chairs, but now Song Shuwen is sitting on the chairs, but he doesn't have any elegant thoughts, he only feels the cold underneath, and the coldness has reached his heart all the way.

To be honest, he has been in the industry until now, and he has also experienced the incident of being changed roles, and he has also estimated that he will be a foil for others and play a supporting role for a lifetime.Anyway, it is a fact recognized by everyone that the circle is dark, and he, Song Shuwen, doesn't need to pretend to be a discerning person. Everyone ran around in the dark with their eyes closed, and he never felt that there was any problem.

Song Shuwen is a little strange, since when did he want to make a movie, want to be the protagonist, and have this kind of ambition that shouldn't be there?

Yes.

It started from "Jiangcheng Wharf".

To be precise, it started when I met Li Yuqing.

He didn't feel angry, but felt a little ridiculous, coughed dryly, and asked in a hoarse voice: "These days, if you are good at acting, you deserve to be a supporting role for the rest of your life?"

Zhao Ming sneered, and put the teacup on the table: "Whether you play the leading role or the supporting role, that is your own choice."

But then he said helplessly: "But they just don't choose you as the leading role. If you want to continue filming and make money, you can only be a supporting role honestly."

"Anyway, filming, making money, not shivering."

Song Shuwen was silent, and leaned back on the mahogany chair.Unexpectedly, his mind was not in the slightest confusion, but was frighteningly sober.

What would happen if you continued to play a supporting role?

In fact, it's not a bad thing. If you play a supporting role in "Soul Soul Order", your salary will also rise accordingly, and then you will become familiar with each other in a few dramas. By then, you will definitely become better than Zhao Mingqi A gold medal supporting role in the circle, it won't take long to earn enough money to buy a house and a car, and bid farewell to today's tight life.

But he is a supporting role, so he is destined not to catch up with Li Yuqing's speed of fame, and it is impossible to make a movie with two protagonists together with Li Yuqing.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with playing a supporting role. With my acting skills, even if I play a supporting role, I can still have fun.Zhao Mingqi, what if it was just to scare you into playing, who can say for sure if the label of the scene can't be torn off once it is pasted?Maybe if I make one or two bad movies again, some people will recognize heroes with their eyes, and they will come to invite me to be the protagonist.

But when he really has the chance to play the leading role, how many more years will he have to waste?How many more years will I have to struggle in bad movies?

three years?five years?

At that time, can I still have the spirit I have today?

And what kind of height will Li Yuqing reach in the circle three to five years later, is he worthy to stand by his side?

Chen Fenglin is a top-notch star, and if he plays for someone else, that is someone giving him a chance. If he really refuses, it will be disrespectful to others.Yes, of course, people like this top class don't care about whether a young actor like himself can act or not, but if this matter spreads in the circle, some people will definitely laugh at him for being stupid, and they don't want the opportunity. Maybe that's why it's gone.Anyway, no one is looking for him to make a movie now, so if there is a scene, he will continue it first. You don't care if he plays a supporting role this time, he will become Chen Fenglin's "play partner", and he will make money first.And Li Yuqing is also on the set, he must be happy to see you, and you must be even happier to see him.

But Li Yuqing...

I want to make a movie, win an award, and help Li Yuqing overcome the hurdle in his heart.

I want to make a movie, win an award, and make myself feel confident that I can stand beside Li Yuqing.

I want to make a movie and play a leading role with Li Yuqing...

Zhao Mingqi stopped talking, and played with the teacup, the tea in it rippled under his shaking.

The two were speechless.

Song Shuwen covered his face with his hands, rubbed vigorously until his eyes were red, and then squeezed out a sentence between his fingers:

"Ms. Zhao, if I tell you that I want to be the protagonist, make a movie, and even win awards, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

The author has something to say:

I am also experiencing the inner struggle of the main character recently

In the end, I feel, compromise, don’t shudder

I'm cowardly, really

But the squirrel classmate in my writing will not be cowardly
