Up South Down North [Entertainment]

Going south and falling north, different routes lead to the same goal.

"Book of Changes. Xici [-]" said: "Daily innovation is called Shengde, and life is called Yi".

——"The Nuwa Empress made people out of clay, but she didn't know that the soil she stepped on would become imposing and become raw soil, also called Yi soil, and thus made two kinds of clay figurines. People made from ordinary clay... are different from people made from Yitu. People from Yitu can reproduce from generation to generation, but people from ordinary clay can't. After a while, Empress Nuwa found that the people she created , some died soon, and some slowly survived from generation to generation. She thought it was because there was no distinction between men and women, so she squeezed the newly made clay figurines into men and women. The natives were also pinched as men and women."

——"So... people who are easy to pinch can have babies, regardless of gender?"

——"That's what it means. This is the legend of the Yi people. Life is called Yi..."

—— "So, the people of the Yi clan are stronger than normal people! Why are they hiding now, and everyone doesn't like the people of the Yi clan very much... I haven't seen a person of the Yi clan in school..."

——"It's not that I don't like it, it's that I'm afraid. It's not that there are no members of the Yi clan, it's just that they don't want to tell you. Because...the existence of the Yi clan makes most people feel unbalanced."

——"Grandma, how can we make everyone feel balanced and accept Yi people?"

——"You are still young, maybe you can figure it out when you grow up! Come on, go to bed. Grandma see if your schoolbag is packed..."

——"Pack it up, the teacher said to pack up your own things, I'm already in the fourth grade."

——"Yeah...Xiao Bei is in the fourth grade, he is really a big boy..."

2016, October.

Autumn tiger is the season to eat people.

Huaguo, West Wenhui Road, Hefeng District, Jincheng, the capital.

This road is not long and wide, but it is very famous.Just because of a school on the road --- Jincheng Film Academy.Jinying, a school where handsome men and beautiful girls gather.It is a neon-colored ivory tower where dreams take off and dreams fall.

It’s another school season with the fragrance of sweet osmanthus. Looking at the fresh meat in front of the gate of Jinying holding admission certificates and vying to take a photo with the school gate plaque, Bei Gu squatted lazily on the side of the road and touched the tip of his chin A handful of beards, a little mixed feelings in my heart.

In fact, he really wanted to sigh like a wretched uncle in a hot-blooded comic: "Youth, youth!"

The people beside him squatted down indistinctly with him, chatting lovingly like an old mother:

"Bei Gu, this time it's Professor Chen from your acting school who is the matchmaker. You must perform well when you arrive later. You have been with me for four years, and you have been a big player for three years. Whether you can succeed depends on your performance this time."

It was his manager Awen who spoke. "Big dragon set" is a word invented by Bei Gu himself, and it is specially used to tease Ah Wen about the roles he has played in these years——the kind of supporting roles that are below the second male, fourth male and above.

"Well, I understand, you can rest assured."

Bei Gu patted Ah Wen like a brother, but he didn't know what he thought of, so he smiled softly:

"I think I also took Professor Chen's class back then. In my sophomore year, I uploaded a public class of his on the Internet, and it became popular. As a result, a 90-minute performance basic theory class was full of people. Reserve a seat half an hour in advance. , the classroom with 50 people was crowded with students of three grades. The scene was extremely spectacular, and guess what? The doorman in charge of the classroom on the first floor refused to open a large classroom. Professor Chen was about to step on the desk to speak... . . . "

Bei Gu talked and stopped talking, stood up, patted the pants that were bulging when he squatted down, stretched his legs that were a little numb, and muttered in a low voice to himself:

"How do you think he thought of me? It's been four years since I graduated, and he didn't punish me for writing an overview..."

Arwen guessed in a low voice: "Isn't it because of the four-year class reunion last month that a group of you got Professor Chen drunk, and you took the initiative to carry him home in the end?"

"Then I was also drunk and accidentally dropped the professor to the ground when I went up the steps."

Bei Gu recalled the scene at that time, his face was expressionless, and he made up for himself.

When I thought about what if Professor Chen only remembered that I fell him, but not that I carried him... I was very desperate... So it was intentional... Right...

Arwen was stunned for a second, and then retorted with a strong desire to survive: "Who can remember so clearly when drunk, right? Maybe there is a character that suits you... um."

Bei Gu smiled, and two dimples emerged from this smile, adding a pure and silly filter to his originally thin face.

…… ...

Bei Gu is handsome, but not in the traditional sense, the kind of handsome who can kill people with a glance, visual impact, 360-degree no dead angle, and only a groundhog screams handsome.

Bei Gu's handsomeness is a kind of "milk handsome" atmosphere exuding from his bones. Recently, he has grown a mustache on his chin and lips. The "milk" in "milk handsome" is less than half, but a bit more The "ruffian".

He is 185 tall, with broad shoulders, thin waist and long legs, and his top is tucked into slim trousers.At first glance, the waist is the waist, and the legs are the legs. People are called spirits.A stylist for a film crew once joked that he was a "legged waist", which shows that even in the entertainment industry, his body proportions can indeed stand up to professional evaluation and "appreciation".

Bei Gu has a sharp-edged, majestic face, a high nose bridge, the corners of the mouth that curl up slightly even when not smiling, and eye sockets that are deeper than ordinary people—the dark brown eyes in the eye sockets are very focused, and they are also inside.When he's not smiling, he doesn't look particularly serious, a bit like a prodigal son.

But those who are familiar with him will know that Bei Gu's demeanor will change drastically when he puts away his sloppy expression.

There was once a director who was filming a youth idol drama and suddenly asked him to change three hairstyles in a row in the middle of filming. Finally, he smiled and said to the makeup stylist:

"Go and change the boy's hair to something stupid with a big back. You must wear hairspray that is reflective. Otherwise, if he stands here, he will look like a villain when he is not smiling, which is too eye-catching; when he is smiling, he is too sweet. It's also eye-catching, it's impossible to shoot other people's scenes."

At that time, the speaker had no intention and the listener had the heart.

The next day, Ah Wen came to him with a sad face, lit a cigarette, and muttered that the scene was cut and half of the lines were cut.

Bei Gu is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very transparent.In fact, when the director opened his mouth, he knew he would suffer.Like him, a rookie male number three who has just graduated and joined the group without background, the director can ask for a lot of them with just a stretch of his hand.Temporarily changing roles is fine, as long as the character name on the final credits is still his "Bei Gu", he has to be honest and grateful to squat in the crew.

Four years have passed in this way, and Bei Gu has been struggling in the role of "big dragon" since graduation.

And the weird thing is, probably because his appearance is too "excellent" and too malleable, every time his image is shaped "against the sky", among his hundreds of thousands of Weibo fans, he has won a nickname—— - "Variety North Nose".

Bei Gu laughed at this nickname for a long time, and his mind was full of how to break the captivating Sakura... These cute little fans in the circle are discussing under his Weibo on a daily basis, and the topics are nothing more than speculation Today's Beibi is instant noodle head or dog licking head.

However...Bei Gu is neither instant noodles nor dog licking his head today.

He casually grabbed a fluffy hairstyle, matched it with a simple T-shirt and cropped pants. If you ignore the mustache on his chin, from the back, he looks like a student who just walked out of Jincheng Film Academy.

"Do you think it's okay for you to grow this beard? The script doesn't say what's going on with the character's shape... In case it becomes self-defeating..." Ah Wen muttered to the side again.

"Absolutely. Trust me."

Bei Gu knows that without a beard, his temperament is too "soft and sweet". This beard is really important...

They opened the door and entered the chain coffee shop next to the school, went straight to the counter and ordered two cups of black tea latte without sugar.

In this coffee shop next to Jincheng Film Academy, the barista inside "reads countless people" every day, with a detached temperament and contemptuous eyes.But even so, it was still very eye-catching for Bei Gu to stop there.The young lady in the green apron peeked at him several times with a smile, and confirmed three times whether it was half sugar or no sugar at all.

"Two glasses without sugar, thank you."

Bei Gu grinned, the two dimples were like the final trump card.The coffee lady's decent smile became nympho in seconds, and she fluttered and turned to the back with the cup.

……

The "big boy" with a slender waist and long legs narrowed his eyes, found a clean corner, and then sat down with a big sword, and crossed the legs of a "pure man".

Ah Wen sat across from him carrying two cups of black tea latte without sugar, with peach hearts and smiling faces painted on them, put the cups away, and took out his iPad from his bag.

Bei Gu looked up, pushed Tao Xin to Ah Wen, picked up the smiling face himself, and took a sip.

"It's four o'clock in the afternoon, and we have an appointment at 06:30 in the evening to recall the dinner in Jiangnan. Let's go up at 05:30, get ready, make tea, order dishes, and leave a good impression on people."

Bei Gu picked up the black tea latte in front of him, took a sip, took out his phone and nodded to express his understanding.

"This opportunity is rare." —— Arwen's opening remarks are still old-fashioned.

Bei Gu shook his feet approvingly, and didn't intend to say anything. The light reflected from the rivets on the Martin boots could dazzle Huaren's eyes.

Awen pushed his glasses and continued to babble:

"I read the script. Although it is an online drama, the specifications and staffing look quite decent, with two male protagonists. The role you may play is quite likable. This is not the kind of unit I have seen before. Family two hair special effects microdermabrasion big eye web drama."

"Well. Captain Zhang is a good character with a complicated personality, strong ability and smart. It should be very enjoyable to play well..."

Hearing Ah Wen start talking about the script, Bei Gu lowered his legs, sat up a little, lowered the phone in his hand, and the gleam of "cynicism" in his eyes disappeared completely.Be serious.

"...The most important thing is... handsome." Bei Gu added self-containedly, and when he said the last word "handsome", he smiled again, and pulled out a moment from the deepness just now. With a sweet smirk, the mustache moved up inappropriately.

Awen's small eyes were fixed on Bei Gu's moustache, and the corners of his mouth were curled into an awkward straight line, and he murmured, "For a while, don't smile at people with this beard, I'm afraid the director will think so. You are obscene..."

"??!..." Bei Gu stared in protest.

The agent pushed down his glasses again, changed his sitting position with the iPad in his hand, and asked again after holding back for a while: "Why do you remember growing a beard? What does it have to do with the script?"

"This matter is particular..." Bei Gu deliberately paused when he said this.

Ah Wen looked carefully at his artist in front of him, feeling something tricky.

Bei Gu's dark brown eyes sparkled: "I dreamed a few days ago that a colorful bird was speaking human words...I checked the Internet for the next week's dream interpretation. It is advisable to grow a beard, which is said to bring wealth!"

Sure enough... Ah Wen lowered his head and continued to slide the tablet in his hand with his fingers, completely unwilling to speak.

In Beigu's small entertainment company, Ah Wen is only responsible for leading Beigu. If Beigu is the "fresh meat" in the show business circle, then he is the "cute newcomer" in the business circle.

He came to the company two years earlier than Bei Gu, and during those two years, he had been working as an assistant under a big manager—Sister Hua.In fact, Bei Gu is very satisfied with Ah Wen, although being assigned to Ah Wen means that he will not be able to get good resources and exposure for a long time.

But who doesn't have a start?

What's more, the two met Yu Wei.

Ah Wen's professional ethics are very high, and he has a good temper. He discusses everything with Bei Gu.As long as there is something he can't, he will immediately learn or ask his seniors for advice.The most important thing is that he never does unscrupulous activities, such as pimping strange dinners and drinking games, and even some old managers make pure money for actors and stars, and they don't bother to do unscrupulous endorsement advertisements.Ah Wen has Ah Wen's persistence, sometimes even more "work" than Bei Gu.

Bei Gu was signed by Ah Wen mainly because of two sentences.Every time he recalls it, Bei Gu feels that he was a fool at that time.

The first sentence: You will become the actor.

———— "I am also just starting out, and the network and resources in my hand are not comparable to that of Sister Hua, but if we have the opportunity to work together, we will work hard to grow together. I will let you play the best I can find every time. Role. I believe that being an actor is a profession that accumulates abilities. We may have a difficult time at the beginning, but don’t give up. I have watched all your course performance videos and drama performance videos, and I think you are not only You are an idol who can only rely on your face to make your debut, I believe that as long as your acting skills continue to hone, you will become an actor."

Strange to say, if anyone ran to Bei Gu who had just graduated and said, "You will be a movie star." Bei Gu would smile politely, and then roll his eyes inwardly.It feels like you graduated from the finance department, and someone came to tell you: "Come work here, you will become the president of the head office of the People's Bank of China", as illusory and naive as it is ridiculous.

Only Ah Wen said it seriously with staring eyes, which touched Bei Gu indescribably.

When an artist signs a contract, few companies will really look at his course performance, professionalism, usual grades or teacher comments one by one over the years.Not to mention those stinky and long performance videos.Awen really read it all over again.He even used a small notebook to record some of the characters that Bei Gu had portrayed in the courses, and briefly talked about his feelings and the planning and analysis of Bei Gu's play path.

In fact, the morning before Ah Wen approached him, an idol trainee company just contacted North Consultant if he was interested in making an "idol" debut.The other party promised that as long as he agrees, he will participate in the post-election program in one month, and fire people. As long as there are no major problems, he is guaranteed to become a traffic niche within half a year, and the endorsement announcement is soft.

Bei Gu politely accepted the other party's black gold-stamped business card from Montelica, Italy, and turned around and put it into the arms of A Wen who had written down the phone number for him.At that time, Ah Wen blushed and rubbed the rice phone in his hand: "Sorry, the company hasn't printed a business card for me yet. Let's add WeChat first..."

Bei Gu comforted himself. When he was admitted with an "amazing" score of 286 points higher than the Jincheng Film Academy's score line, he was full of enthusiasm to be a good actor.There are not a few students who signed a contract to debut in the middle of the four-year university. He is one of the few students who insist on attending classes every day, doing homework seriously, and taking exams until graduation.In fact, students like him are a bit "non-mainstream" in Jinying—most students make their debut as soon as they can.He loves acting, and even dreams of acting well... But, don't worry, take your time.

A stack of contracts, in Awen Wuping's cramped office, Bei Gu was in a turbulent mood at the time, staring at the small notebook on the table that recorded the roles he had played during school, silent for a while, and asked softly: "Why do you think I can become the actor?"

The second flickering words came out: "There is drama in your eyes and in your heart."

———It is rare for Ah Wen to say such a short but incisive sentence.Of course, if such a stunned young manager used the phrase "you have a joke in your eyes" to prevaricate Bei Gu, he would never be moved, but would give him a kick and tell him to get out.

I can't bear it when both of them were young.With this enthusiasm, the two three-legged cats have stumbled and supported each other and grown up to today.

———From the three-legged cat of "Little Fresh Meat" to the three-legged cat of "Old Bacon".

Bei Gu has his own ideas. He can persist in the first four years for his dream, so he can naturally persist in the second four years.

......

Going around, there are only 2 days left before the arrival of the second four years...

That is, half a month ago, a small thing happened.

Bei Gu suddenly received a call from his alma mater, Professor Chen.

The old professor chatted with him for a long time, and finally spoke hesitantly, saying that he was entrusted by someone and wanted to ask him if he would like to act in a web drama with two male protagonists.

Then just yesterday, Professor Chen formally made an appointment with him, saying that the main creator of the web drama wanted to meet him.

Professor Chen's call itself flattered Bei Gu. When the word "web drama" came out of Professor Chen's mouth, Bei Gu was stunned for a long time.

In his impression, Professor Chen is a person who opens his mouth: "Griffith" and shuts up: "Kracauer".

In any case, Professor Chen, who is over half a century old, does not look like a trendy teacher who studies "net dramas".Bei Gu even imagined that if anyone discusses online dramas with him in his class, he will probably be fined a 4000-word film and television performance art paper—the kind written by hand.

But no matter how incredible the characters and process are, the result is that now Bei Gu and his manager Awen are already sitting here.

The author has something to say: 【Note】

1. For the sake of harmony, the setting of parallel worlds, so that everything you see does not rise to real people, real society, real film and television works

2. In this world, it is assumed that same-sex marriage is legal, and Huaguo’s online drama section is weak. Some things in reality should still exist, such as the dim sum in Daoxiang Village (what am I talking about?!)

3. There are still some special races in this world where men can give birth to children——— Yi Clan

4. There is a slight time mismatch with the one on Magnolia Street, but it is not important at all.Um.

At the beginning:

This is another YY article by myself, still cool and sweet.

Bo Jun just smiled, I hope we are happy with each other,

If you don’t accept the above settings, please escape quickly in advance, and I don’t want my brain to surprise everyone [Sincerely cover your face] (PS If you leave, don’t tell me, in case I can’t help but frantically try to stay... .right......)

Bihart.
