The film and television base in City A has only been built for five years, but its development momentum is very strong. In a short period of time, it has become one of the four major film and television cities in China, and hundreds of film crews settle in to shoot every year.
Qin Lang came here to work part-time at the beginning because it was close to home and school.
But tonight's scene is not in the film and television city, but on a bridge three kilometers away from the film and television city.
This is a semi-abandoned ancient bridge, closed to traffic for a long time, and the location is a bit remote, the sky is not completely dark yet, there are no people there, and the crew doesn't even need to clear the scene.
The play is a spy war drama of the Republic of China, called "The Wind and Cloud in Troubled Times", and the hero is Lin Rui, the most popular young student today.
Qin Lang is Lin Rui's stand-in, and he does all the action scenes.
It's not the first time he's been Lin Rui's stand-in. In fact, in the past few years, he can be said to be Lin Rui's special stand-in, the one who has signed a contract.
Because Lin Rui is popular, there are at least four dramas in a year, and most of them are costume dramas with a lot of action dramas. Qin Lang is not worried about not having a job. Sometimes when he meets Lin Rui in dramas, even the simplest Wia dramas have to be him. Here comes this stand-in.
Last year, Lin Rui filmed two dramas at the same time, because they were both in a hurry. In one of the martial arts dramas, he was a substitute for nearly one-sixth.
But no matter how much he shoots, he's just a stand-in who can't show his face. The male lead can easily earn millions of dollars in one scene, and his little stand-in can earn at most a few thousand yuan of hard-earned money.
It would be a lie to say that there is no imbalance at all, but this is the reality.
In this circle, if you are popular, you will be sought after by thousands of people, and if you are not popular, you will be penniless and no one cares about you. It has nothing to do with whether you work hard or not.
Fortunately, after tonight, he doesn't have to think about whether he is willing or not.
Now he only hopes to successfully complete the last stand-in scene, so he should say a perfect farewell to the dream in his heart.
"Xiao Qin, change your clothes quickly. Lin Rui has only one scene tonight. After that, you should jump off the bridge."
"understood."
Zhong Yi sighed and said: "Hey, you really quit? Then I will lose a buddy who can drink with me after work is over."
He is one year older than Qin Lang, and he came to the film and television city almost at the same time. They are all small people who come to support their families and seek opportunities. They soon became friends. , Seeing that he can't get ahead, and he has no academic qualifications and no talents, he can only think of other ways out. Now he finally got into the crew and became a dramatist, so he won't be hungry or full.
Qin Lang smiled and punched him: "I'm not going to go far away, don't worry, I will find you to drink with me whenever I have time."
Zhong Yi beamed with joy: "That's what you said."
"of course."
Zhong Yi said: "How about you, you are a decent college student, you can't get ahead here, and you can find a good job. I heard that your salary is very high for your computer major."
Qin Lang smiled: "It's just an ordinary job."
Zhong Yi said: "Don't you still have two younger brothers who are very good at studying? When the two children graduate in the future, you, the eldest brother, will be able to enjoy the blessings, unlike me who have no hope."
"As a big brother, I can still count on my younger brother?" Qin Lang shook his head amusedly, and thought for a while, "You work hard, and strive to be an assistant director or something as soon as possible."
"Okay, when I become a director, if you want to come back to film, I will definitely get you a good role."
"Thank you in advance then."
Hearing the director's call, Zhong Yi waved his hand: "Okay, you change your clothes and get ready, I'm off to work."
Watching Zhong Yi leave in a hurry, Qin Lang changed his clothes while looking at Lin Rui's shooting situation over there.
This scene is about the hero being chased all the way, and after fleeing to a bridge, seeing that he was about to be overtaken by the enemy, he had no choice but to jump into the river to escape.
Lin Rui's play today was very simple. He ran to the bridge railing, and when he heard the gunshots, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the enemy, then at the rushing river under the bridge, and then jumped over the railing.
Of course, he only needs to get one leg up the railing and let the camera close up his face.
The rest is Qin Lang's substitute.
This scene is not difficult, Lin Rui passed it twice, he talked and laughed with the director, walked up to Qin Lang who was getting ready to change clothes, patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said kindly: "The next step is troublesome You, be careful, don't choke on the water."
Lin Rui is a major student who graduated from the Film Academy. He made his debut at the age of 20. At the age of 21, he became popular because of a costume drama with good ratings. After that, he played various leading roles. The first niche in costume dramas.
Actors who look good in ancient costumes naturally have impeccable facial features.
He has a handsome appearance with sword eyebrows and stars, and he looks like a knight-errant in ancient costumes.
His acting skills can be regarded as outstanding among young actors, coupled with his amiable personality, he has a good reputation both inside and outside the circle.
Of course, he is a big star, and a small person like Qin Lang is a person of two worlds.
So this kind of affinity, in any case, has a sense of superiority.
Qin Lang responded to the big star with a smile: "It's okay, I'm good at swimming."
The two men are very similar in shape, and they are wearing the same white shirt and khaki pants at this time, and it is really impossible to tell who is who from a distance.
Lin Rui sighed softly, and said with a smile: "Originally, there was a supporting role in my next new play that I wanted to introduce to you, but I didn't expect you to quit the circle like this. No matter what, I wish you a smooth sailing and a bright future."
Qin Lang thought to himself that he had been his stand-in for almost three years, and he never said that he had a role to introduce to him before, but when he retired from the circle, he suddenly said this, why bother?
Facing the condescending care of a big star, he couldn't be too petty, so he laughed and said, "Thank you, Brother Rui, and I wish you all the best and become more and more popular."
"Okay!" Lin Rui said, "Then I'm leaving, you take good pictures."
Surrounded by two assistants, Lin Rui boarded the nanny car parked by the side of the road, called it a day and left.
The director is calling: "Where's Xiao Qin?"
"Here we come!" Qin Lang ran over.
He has been in the group for a long time, and the director is very familiar with him and knows that he is a worry-free stand-in. He gave concise and concise guidance: "We will not waste time trying to shoot the falling into the water scene, and try to pass it. Xiao Qin, stand by the bridge , straddle the railing with one leg, when I call Action, you turn over and jump straight down. After falling into the water, you first dive in the water for ten seconds, after ten seconds I call stop, and you come out of the water, the lifeboat will pull You come up. Do you understand?"
Qin Lang nodded: "Understood."
The director patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "This is the last time you will act as a stand-in. Try to complete the task perfectly once and for all, and call it a day and go home early."
Qin Lang smiled: "Okay."
Watching him trot to the bridge railing under the moonlight, swaying with his back to the camera, the director shook his head and sighed lowly.
He has been a director for so many years, and he still has a good eye for people. This little stand-in is not only good for martial arts, but also has a rare good appearance. It is definitely a face that can stand the test of the camera.
It's a pity that there are too few opportunities in this circle, and it's too dark and complicated. It's really hard for a young man like him with no background and no shortcuts.
What's more, there are still some people who are afraid of his prominence like this.
Qin Lang made a good posture, turned around and gestured OK to the director, then turned his head to face the river.
The river is not wide, but the water in this section is deep and turbulent, and the bridge deck must be nearly ten meters high. If he hadn't come to try to jump in advance yesterday, it would have been a bit frightening for him to jump like this in the middle of the night.
The scene recorder came over to play the board, and the director said "Action".
Qin Lang instantly substituted himself into "The Wind and Cloud in Troubled Times". The protagonist who was hunted down and had nowhere to go, closed his eyes, crossed the bridge fence without hesitation, and jumped into the dark river below.
There was a loud crash, and the river splashed a large amount of water in the night. Ten seconds later, the water surface returned to calm, and the director landed with a click. Qin Lang, who had gone down more than ten meters along the current, rose out of the water and waited on the shore The lifeboat quickly stepped forward.
Everything stuck perfectly.
"Xiao Qin, are you okay?" the director shouted from above.
Qin Lang waved his hand and replied loudly: "It's all right. Have you passed the director?"
"It's over, you can call it a day and go home."
Qin Lang breathed a sigh of relief, and swam against the current to the side of the lifeboat.
He supported the side of the boat with one hand, and wiped the water from his face with the other hand. Just as he was about to turn over onto the boat, a shining meteor flashed across the distant night sky.
At the same time, a huge wave suddenly surged on the originally calm river.
Before Qin Lang could react, he was already swept away from the lifeboat by the waves.
He just felt as if his body was engulfed by a strange force, and the water pouring in from all directions trapped him firmly, his eyes were dark, his whole body seemed to be spinning, and he could only struggle by instinctively paddling.
I don't know how long it took, just when he felt that he was going to pass out from suffocation, the power in his body was finally released.
He emerged from the water, gasping for breath like a survivor.
After respite, I looked up and saw that I was estimated to be more than 100 meters away from the bridge at this moment, and the lifeboat had disappeared.
Fortunately, the current here was gentle, so he swam to the shore and lay down with his body stretched out in big characters as if releasing his strength.
I don't know if it was because I struggled too hard in the water just now, but now I just feel drowsy, and I didn't wait for someone to come, but I fell asleep.
When he woke up again, he found that he was still lying there.No one came to take care of him.
"I rely on!"
He cursed in a low voice, even if he was a small stand-in, he shouldn't be treated like this.
Although he was still very sleepy, he closed his eyes and fell asleep for a while, and his strength recovered a lot.
He stood up and walked towards the bridge. After walking a few steps, he realized that not only was his hair dry, but even his clothes were almost dried by the body temperature and night wind.
How long has he been asleep?
What surprised him even more was that when he returned to the bridge, he saw an empty desolation, and the entire production crew retreated cleanly without even a ghost left.
Could this bastard be any more wicked?
Before the stand-in had even landed, the entire production crew called it a day, leaving no one behind.
Of course, this is not the saddest thing. What is even more tragic is that he found that his motorcycle parked at the end of the bridge was ridden by some bastard.
His phone, keys and wallet are all in the trunk.
This unbelievable scene made him wonder if the crew deliberately punished him.
This isn't April Fool's Day!
In order to welcome him out of the circle, make such a big deal?
Even Zhong Yi left him alone?
Fuck mud horse!
Qin Lang wanted to beat someone up.
But burning with anger was nothing compared to being sleepy and tired.
He took a deep breath, calmed down, and decided to go home and sleep on something, and then settle it with others tomorrow.
It's not too far from home, but it's obviously unrealistic to walk back on two legs.
He touched his trouser pocket. Fortunately, when he just changed his clothes, he took out a few change tickets from his jeans and stuffed them into the trousers. It should be enough to take a taxi.
With a weak body and a strong mind, he walked to the intersection where the traffic came and went, and he managed to hail a taxi.
"Sijili Community."
After sitting in the back seat and reporting the address, Qin Lang leaned heavily on the back of the chair and closed his eyes for a nap.
Because I was too sleepy, I fell asleep quickly.
The radio in the taxi was playing the evening program.
"Good evening, listeners. Today is August 2020, 8. It's 15 o'clock Beijing time. This place is closed tonight. I'm DJ Xiaowen..."

A lighthearted and happy article—life needs a little placebo.
