In fact, according to the crew's plan, Jiang Zhe was supposed to finish filming next month.
It's just that people's calculations are not as good as God's calculations.
Jiang Zhe didn't expect that the filming was going well, but he suddenly received a call from Ju Jueliang.
If not, Jiang Zhe would not have worked overtime for more than half a month and would have finished the job ahead of schedule.
To be honest, I have to thank Qian Yanqiu for being accommodating, otherwise Jiang Zhe might not be able to spare time.
But then again, Qian Yanqiu, who was deeply influenced by Chinese chivalrous culture, also admired Jiang Zhe's behavior of repaying kindness, otherwise she would not have agreed to adjust the filming plan for him.
But no matter what Qian Yanqiu thought, Jiang Zhe still owed him a favor in this matter.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhe in the car couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
In order to repay a favor, I owe another favor...
Alas, people in the world can't help themselves, that's all!
Compared to Jiang Zhe, Lao Ma didn't have much emotion.
He was becoming more and more professional. While driving, he quickly introduced the inside story of Ju Jueliang's new drama to Jiang Zhe.
“Boss, the production company behind this film is from Shanghai. It should be a new player in the industry.”
"The news I heard is that the other party wanted to create a big lineup, so Director Ju moved you out."
Jiang Zhe was not surprised after hearing this.
For a director, being able to call a popular star to star at any time is an ability.
It is reasonable that Ju Jueliang wants to use this to show his strength to the producer and compete for the right to speak.
This is why after receiving a call from Ju Jueliang, Jiang Zhe agreed without even reading the script or asking about the role.
It can be said that it gave Ju Jueliang enough face!
After all, if it hadn't been for Ju Jueliang's casual move, Jiang Zhe wouldn't have become popular so quickly.
Now even if this project is a big bad movie and a copycat drama, Jiang Zhe can only bite the bullet and continue acting.
Fortunately, when Jiang Zhe met Ju Jueliang the next day, he found that the situation was not as pessimistic as he imagined.
…
In the hotel, Ju Jueliang was obviously very excited when he saw Jiang Zhe again.
To be honest, he didn't expect that he would actually lift up a popular young student with his careless lifting.
What he didn't even expect was that Jiang Zhe would become famous so quickly!
Therefore, during the Chinese New Year this year, Ju Jueliang was very proud in the circle.
Even though he doesn't make the most money in the director circle, he is the one with the most dignity!
And with such a card, it is natural to show it off.
Of course, Ju Jueliang is not a fool.
Moving Jiang Zhe out this time was just to boost his own self-esteem, not to destroy Jiang Zhe.
So after some small talk, he immediately took out the script and handed it to Jiang Zhe.
"Your role is Gu Xichao, the second male lead and the villain. I have wronged you this time!"
After saying that, he patted Jiang Zhe's arm with emotion.
After all, he also knew that Jiang Zhe had not only starred in two large-scale martial arts dramas during this period, but also had a connection with CCTV.
It can be said that with Jiang Zhe's current position as a celebrity, he is willing to come over and match others, which indeed gives Ju Jueliang face!
This is why when Jiang Zhe's name appeared on the cast list, the producer immediately decided on Ju Jueliang as the director.
In fact, directors, like actors, sometimes have to look for work everywhere.
It's just that actors look for work from the crew, while directors look for work from film and television companies.
Jiang Zhe finally breathed a sigh of relief after briefly reading Gu Xichao's script.
Fortunately, the script is good and the characters are not outrageous.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhe immediately laughed heartily and said:
"Director Ju, what are you talking about? Why should we be so indifferent? If you need anything, just give me an order!"
As soon as he said this, the smile on Ju Jueliang's face suddenly became brighter.
Sure enough, he was right at first!
…
In fact, Jiang Zhe originally wanted to go back to school after filming "Detective Di Renjie".
But who would have imagined that such an accident would happen.
So after asking Huang Lei for leave again, Jiang Zhe, who was a little tired, couldn't take a rest, so he stayed in a hotel in Shanghai and began to study the script.
It is said that although the novel "Ni Shui Han" is a separate article, it actually belongs to the "Four Famous Catchers" series.
At the same time, this novel is also recognized by the industry as the most suitable for adaptation into a TV series among Wen Ruian's martial arts novels.
Because compared to the stream-of-consciousness Gu Long, Wen Ruian prefers to build characters through plot.
For example, the two characters Qi Shaoshang and Gu Xichao in the play have distinctive and unique personalities.
Because at the beginning of the novel, according to Wen Ruian's description, the two people seemed to be a life-and-death acquaintance.
Of course Qi Shaoshang also thinks so. He has always regarded Gu Xichao as a life and death brother and admires him greatly. Otherwise, he would not have tried his best to promote Gu Xichao as the leader of Lianyun Village.
It's just that one day Gu Xichao sent out a "repayment order" and Qi Shaoshang led his brothers to rush to help desperately, but Gu Xichao suddenly killed him and his former brothers.
It can be said that in this novel, the quality of the characters is not simply caused by their personality.
Because everyone has their own logic for doing things, and they don’t think they are doing evil!
For example, Gu Xichao, played by Jiang Zhe, is the leader of Lianyun Village, although he draws a sword against his brothers.
But as the son-in-law of the powerful Prime Minister Fu Zongshu, he only thought that he was making meritorious deeds.
Because he has always had great ambitions as a civilized, civilized and military man, he thought he was completely worthy of the Prime Minister's daughter.
As for the accidental injury of human lives in the process of making achievements, that is also inevitable.
After all, those who can achieve great things since ancient times must avoid the kindness of women.
Compassion does not control soldiers, and righteousness does not control wealth. This is the formal logic of his caring for the emperor!
When Jiang Zhe realized this, he immediately understood how he was going to act this time.
…
The next day, when Jiang Zhe told Ju Jueliang his thoughts, Ju Pangpang's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yes, that's what I thought too. This time we both thought of it together!"
Ju Jueliang patted Jiang Zhe's arm with a satisfied look on his face, and then said proudly:
"So this time, don't think of yourself as the villain, don't use those stereotyped villain templates, just act like a decent person!"
Not only Jiang Zhe, but also Ju Jueliang himself is preparing to make a heroic version of Gu Xichao.
Seeing what he said, Jiang Zhe immediately felt relieved.
After communicating about the script, Ju Jueliang took Jiang Zhe to the conference room and introduced other actors to him.
…
"She is Song Jia, and she plays Fu Wanqing, the daughter of Prime Minister Fu Zongshu."
Ju Jueliang said jokingly:
"That's your wife. You two should get along well and stop fighting!"
As for Zhang Zhilin, he didn't need to be introduced by Ju Jueliang. Jiang Zhe could guess that he should be playing the male lead Qi Shaoshang.
After all, given his status, Ju Jueliang would only let him play the third male role unless he went crazy.
Zhang Zhilin had also heard of Jiang Zhe's name. Especially when he saw the director personally introducing everyone to him, he understood his position in the director's heart.
Therefore, even though they are seniors in the industry, the two had a great conversation when they met for the first time.
In fact, after reading the script, Jiang Zhe felt that Gu Xichao was not bad as the second male lead.
After all, the character of the male protagonist Qi Shaoshang is so perfect that it is almost false.
As the head of Lianyun Village and a well-known hero, Qi Shaoshang is the kind of person who will like him and be friends with him as soon as they see him.
Perhaps because of his reputation, he put layers of shackles on himself.
So gradually, in his heart, friendship in the world was more important than love.
For such a perfect character, Jiang Zhe really doesn't know how to act!
"My name is Li Xiaoran, I heard Huang Lei talk about you!"
But when it was the last beautiful lady's turn, before Ju Jueliang could speak, she rolled her eyes and said with a smile:
"According to seniority, you should call me Senior Aunt, right?"
Hearing this, Jiang Zhe suddenly felt dumbfounded.
"You are not from Nortel, how do you get your seniority?"
You must know that Jiang Zhe had read the information before coming here. Although Li Xiaoran and Huang Lei were friends, they graduated from Beijing Dance University.
So Jiang Zhe was not intimidated by her at all and immediately smiled silently.
Seeing that Jiang Zhe was not fooled, Li Xiaoran didn't care.
It is said that although her character Xi Honglei likes Qi Shaoshang, Li Xiaoran is more interested in Jiang Zhe now.
After all, at her friend's gathering last year, she often heard Huang Lei showing off his proud disciple.
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran looked at Jiang Zhe with more and more curiosity...
