soul collector

Jiang Qiao's face became ugly. After so many dramas, no one dared to cause trouble in his crew. "Go and have a look."

Tang Xiu also went there, Zhang Kaixing ran over to hold him back, and said in a low voice, "Why are you following? Don't go."

Tang Xiu looked at him, "What's wrong?"

"Really ignorant, pretending to be ignorant?" Zhang Kaixing was also a little anxious, "The less you know about this kind of thing, the better for yourself. Don't overwhelm your curiosity. You didn't come to the set to watch the excitement."

Tang Xiu laughed when he heard the words, "Senior, in fact, I came to the set to watch the excitement."

"what?"

"It's so lively." Tang Xiu said, his voice followed his eyes and drifted towards the direction Jiang Qiao was walking. "Watching the excitement is much more interesting than acting."

Wang Yu and Hu Guangran clashed in the small open space on the side of the building. When the director's assistant ran over, he said that Wang Yu and Hu Guangran had fought, but this statement is not accurate enough.When Tang Xiu and the others arrived, Wang Yu was standing in the middle of the ground, and Hu Guangran's male assistant hugged him and dragged him back vigorously.

Wang Yu looked at the spot on the ground in front of him without blinking, his chest was heaving and unsteady, the left side of his face was red and swollen, and the skin was torn for some unknown reason, oozing some blood.Hu Guangran also had blood on his hands and the corners of his mouth, but his face was not bruised or swollen.

Hu Guangran was surrounded by two arms by the assistant, and he was still muttering and cursing some inaudible words, not in Mandarin, but probably because of his dialect accent when he was emotional.

Jiang Qiao's entire face was terribly gloomy, and he strode towards Hu Guangran, passing by Wang Yu and gouged him out.That eye knife was so sharp that Wang Yu lowered his head even lower, his neck and ears were red.

Jiang Qiao stood in front of Hu Guangran, and the shouting Hu Guangran paused for a moment, swallowing back the half-swearing words.His assistant was about to let go when Jiang Qiao suddenly grabbed Hu Guangran's collar with one hand.

Zhang Kaixing, who followed Tang Xiu, took a deep breath, "Director..."

Jiang Qiao was more than ten centimeters taller than Hu Guangran, so he carried Hu Guangran with ease.With sharp black eyes, he shouted sharply: "What are you doing! Huh?"

Hu Guangran was defeated under his eyes, and lowered his eyes with some guilt.

"Talk back!" Jiang Qiao raised his voice a few more times, and strengthened his hands. This time, he really strangled Hu Guangran. Hu Guangran began to back away uncomfortably, but he couldn't move an inch. "Director Jiang, you..."

Jiang Qiao tightened his grip and forced him to look at each other, "You dare to challenge my imagination. It's rumored that the actors in Jiang Qiao's crew are fighting, and you want to make the headlines for "Zhan Hu Tai"?"

Wang Yu suddenly said from behind: "Director Jiang let go, he is not entirely to blame for this." He raised his hand to wipe the blood on his face, and it was almost dry, "We had a little conflict, and we were a little anxious just now, We will both examine you."

Jiang Qiao remained indifferent and stared at Hu Guangran for another half a minute.The audience was silent, the sharpness and anger in those eyes were like blades, Hu Guangran could barely hold back, and the hands hanging on both sides of his body trembled.

He calmed down completely at this moment, and finally realized what was going on, his voice was crying.

"Director, I was impulsive, yes, I'm sorry..."

Jiang Qiao let go.Pointing to Hu Guangran, "You—" He turned around and pointed to Wang Yu, "And you. You two will be in my scene for the last time."

"Director!" Wang Yu was in a hurry, and hurried forward two steps, "We know we were wrong, and we promise not to let anyone present spread the word about what happened today, please don't..."

Jiang Qiao sneered when he heard the words, "You were chosen for such a good script and such a good role. After joining the crew, I felt restless all day. Instead of reading the script and watching other people's acting, I wanted to fight! Let me tell you, finish the filming quickly. Your role, and then let me go!"

"Director Jiang, I really don't blame me for this!" Hu Guangran's eyes were red, and his emotions were on the verge of collapse. "You can't kill me because of this kind of thing. It's not easy for me to be in your drama, I..."

Unexpectedly, Jiang Qiao was not moved at all. He turned around abruptly and said in a loud voice, "It's not easy to be in my show, but I don't think you cherish this opportunity. Disappear from my sight immediately! No more nagging, give it to me now." roll."

Zhang Kaixing sighed, walked over and pulled Hu Guangran, "Little Hu, let's go first, we'll talk later."

While talking, he turned his head and winked at Wang Yu, "Let's go, let's go, you two go separately. What's the matter with you, Xiao Hu is two years younger than you, and you are still fighting with him, go back and write a review for Director Jiang, hurry up !"

Zhang Kaixing dragged Wang Yu and Hu Guangran away, and the melon-eaters nearby immediately dispersed.As soon as Jiang Qiao turned around, he saw Tang Xiu standing behind him and looking at him, with a half-smile on his face.

The anger in his chest seemed to be extinguished all of a sudden, and the remaining ashes were still a little worrying. There was no one around, so he walked quickly to Tang Xiu's side, and said in a low voice, "You go back to eat, what are you doing here?"

Tang Xiu turned around and walked back, "It's very fierce to follow you to see you."

"Ah." Jiang Qiao paused and sighed, "Young actors nowadays are becoming more and more outrageous. This time, the second investor of "Zhan Hu Tai" is your company, otherwise these roles may not really be in their turn. They play."

Tang Xiu nodded, walked to the table and casually picked up the lunch box that Jiang Qiao picked out for him just now, and suddenly said, "There's something wrong with this Hu Guangran."

"what happened?"

"Yesterday, Chen Bing broke the inkstone. I went to his room to help clean it up. I stayed in it for about 10 minutes. Hu Guangran has been lying on his doorstep and eavesdropping."

Jiang Qiao was surprised when he heard the words, "What are you doing eavesdropping on this?"

"That's right." Tang Xiu smiled lightly, rubbing the bridge of his nose, "He wrote a copybook, I just went in and admired it, why is he eavesdropping on this?"

"You suspect..." Jiang Qiao didn't finish his sentence, "But it's a bit too speculative."

Tang Xiu nodded, "It's a little bit, let's observe."

He still felt that Hu Guangran was like Lu Kangjing. When Jiang Qiao was furious at Hu Guangran just now, he just took the opportunity to stare at Hu Guangran.But from the head to the toe, there is no similarity in facial features, figure, demeanor, and tone of voice. Where did the similarity come from?

Tang Xiu sighed, this matter was very clueless, but last night the gathering of souls seemed to be crazy, which made him a little worried that Lu Kangjing's voyeurism case was related to the uncollected souls.

"What contradiction do you think Hu Guangran and Wang Yu can have? You Yan Luo is famous, and they dare to fight in your crew."

Jiang Qiao curled his lips, "The artist circle is too chaotic, and there are many reasons for conflicts. I'm too lazy to know."

Tang Xiu said, "So regardless of 21, if you get angry, you have to leave?"

Jiang Qiao nodded and hummed.

"Quite tempered." Tang Xiu smiled faintly.

"Let's divide up." Jiang Qiao sighed suddenly, his voice softened, "I don't have any temper with you. Are you still angry about what happened last night?"

"Don't ask me." Tang Xiu suddenly put on a straight face.

Jiang Qiao was taken aback and let out a cry.

In fact, he still wanted to ask Tang Xiu why he didn't let him ask.But after thinking about it again, the mother and fetus are single until now, maybe they really don't know how to fall in love.

Don't ask, don't ask.He was not even allowed to ask if he was angry, and it was even more impossible to ask him what breed he was.

Jiang Qiao sighed suddenly, "I'm pretty good."

Tang Xiu raised his eyebrows, feeling that he was about to hear a strange sentence.

Sure enough, Jiang Qiao paused and then whispered, "I haven't liked anyone in almost 30 years, but I fell in love with someone, and I'm still not a human being."

"Who are you scolding?" Tang Xiu gritted his teeth. Not far away were a few brothers who maintained the camera equipment. He couldn't reveal his secrets, so he whispered: "You are a human being, and you are very powerful as a human being?"

Jiang Qiao was stunned by him.

Tang Xiu returned to the room with the boxed lunch and ate a few bites in a hurry. There was still half an hour before work started in the afternoon. He dug out the iodine cotton pads he had brought and knocked on Wang Yu's door.

If Hu Guangran is also a suspect, it would be difficult for him to startle the snake.If he was not mistaken in his observations today, Hu Guangran's hand was rubbed with Wang Yu's blood. Wang Yu should have been slapped twice, but it is unknown where the broken blood on his face came from.Tang Xiu felt that he had to figure this out.

Unexpectedly, it was Zhang Kaixing who opened the door.Wang Yu was sitting on his bed to let go. The wound on his face should have been wiped by Zhang Kaixing. The blood was gone, and the wound itself was exposed. It was a scratch of about two centimeters, with different thickness up and down, as if it was scratched by something irregular. for a moment.

Zhang Kaixing watched Tang Xiu look at Wang Yu's face, pulled him to the corridor, and said in a low voice, "It's nothing serious, his face is a little swollen, and the wound was scratched by the ring on Hu Guangran's hand."

"Oh, what's going on with the two of them?"

Zhang Kaixing waved his hand, "It's probably because of the number of places. These two seem to have competed fiercely before. Wang Yu just snatched the year-end winter vacation variety show from Xiaohu. I can't ask about the mess, so don't worry about it. Just listen to my brother." Advice, in this circle, really, don't mind your own business."

Zhang Kaixing stopped Tang Xiu from entering Wang Yu's room at all, and he was a little speechless, so he could only take another look inside through the crack of the door before leaving.

Wang Yu looked at the bed expressionlessly, his expression was numb, Zhang Kaixing sighed, "He has been working hard for the past two years, and he has always wanted to switch to the talent group, and he finally took a relatively important role in Director Jiang's play, such a good job Opportunities are gone in an instant.”

The role played by Wang Yu this time is the national teacher of the human race, which is indeed a pretty good role.

Before Tang Xiu turned around, he glanced at him again. Although this person looked ashamed at the moment, in the farce just now, he didn't care as much about this role as Hu Guangran.

He remembered very clearly that Jiang Qiao wanted to offend, and Wang Yu begged twice. Although each time he said that both parties were at fault, he was already very gracious compared to Hu Guangran's opening his mouth to push the blame.

……

The last scene before dinner was between Tang Xiu and Hu Guangran.Hu Guangran didn't come out all afternoon, and he slowly walked into the recording studio until it was almost his turn, in a very depressed state.

Jiang Qiao couldn't help frowning when he saw him, "Actors adjust their state, don't drag the whole crew to work overtime with you."

Hu Guangran hummed, and bent towards the direction of the river bridge, in a very pitiful gesture.

"Director, I will try my best to act well."

Jiang Qiao obviously still annoyed him, and waved his hand, "Let's start when you're ready."

In this scene, Xiaobai decides to go to the capital of the human world with Renjun. Baifeng is very angry after hearing this, and repeatedly warns Xiaobai that his heart is sinister, but Xiaobai is obsessed with it, and even breaks with his cousin.

Tang Xiu put away the notebook when he saw Hu Guangran coming over. The lighting in the indoor studio was very bright, and he could vaguely feel that the foundation on Hu Guangran's face was not heavy, but the bloody place on the corner of his mouth at noon today was very smooth. , no scars at all.

Tang Xiu smiled, "Are you okay?"

Hu Guangran took a deep breath and let it out again, "It sucks."

This person is straightforward and doesn't pretend much.Tang Xiu asked: "Don't get too stiff with Wang Yu, look up and look down. Although there is no rivalry, it will not tear your face."

Hu Guangran nodded, "I understand, I was impulsive at noon."

He refused to reveal any more information, Tang Xiu didn't ask further, but he could feel that Hu Guangran's troubles were not just pretending.Now that Jiang Qiao said that he would not use him again, he obviously regretted it.

Tang Xiu subconsciously turned his head to look at Jiang Qiao. This guy was really fierce when he got angry.In the past, he had been told by various people that Jiang Qiao was not to be messed with, but he hadn't been distracted, and he had only seen it at noon today.

Jiang Qiao watched him look over, his stern face softened a bit, and he said into the loudspeaker, "All departments are ready."

Several aircraft seats were ready on the slide, and Miss Zhang Ji hit the board with a crisp sound.

Hu Guangran flicked his sleeves, turned his back, and said in a loud voice: "I don't allow this! You were raised in the cave of my Bai family, and you have never been out of this forest. You actually ran after saving someone Go out, what's the proper way?"

Tang Xiuxiu wanted to take a step forward, but Jiang Qiao suddenly called out, "Cut!"

Hu Guangran's shoulders shook, and he hurriedly turned his head to look in Jiang Qiao's direction in embarrassment.Jiang Qiao said, "Bai Feng's generation of unrestrained and unrestrained demon spirits, you've become greasy by your vivid performance. If Tang Xiu is in the same frame as you, people will know that this is talking to Xiao Bai. If Tang Xiu is out of the frame, your posture is acting as an accomplice." Where is the official who loses his temper as a concubine?"

The corners of Hu Guangran's eyes trembled, and he almost wanted to cry. He dared to ask, "Director, am I wrong with my lines or my actions?"

"It's not right." Jiang Qiao didn't show any face.

There was silence everywhere, the lighting engineer, cameraman, scene reporter, various assistants... a total of 30, no. [-] people, all looked at Hu Guangran.Tang Xiu felt a little ashamed for him, and stretched out his hand to pull Hu Guangran, "Relax, find Bai Feng's feeling, let's do it again."

Hu Guangran hummed, lowered his head and wanted to rub his face, but he was afraid of messing up his makeup, so he tapped his cheekbones and took a deep breath.

"Actually, Baifeng is the mature version of Xiaobai. He should have some of Xiaobai's free and easy youth, but it is covered up by a higher elegance. He is by no means rigid and old-fashioned, like a parent in a feudal society." Tang Xiu whispered. : "This is my understanding."

Hu Guangran paused for two seconds, then sighed, "You are the person Director Jiang chose at a glance, and you are indeed different from us. Even if you have never filmed, you are different."

"Don't say that, everyone knows that you were affected by what happened at noon."

Hu Guangran raised his eyelids and glanced at Tang Xiu with gratitude, "Thank you."

"Are you two finished? Are you still filming?"

Hu Guangran breathed a sigh of relief, "Shooting, director, let's start."

The second one, Hu Guangran took two steps forward, looked at Tang Xiu for a few seconds, and sighed, "I don't allow this."

Tang Xiu immediately connected, with puzzled expression in his eyes, as if he wanted to argue.Hu Guangran understood, and before he opened his mouth, he continued: "You were raised in the cave of my Bai family, and you have never been out of this forest. How can you run out after saving someone?"

"cut!"

Jiang Qiao sighed unbearably, "The words just now are all in vain. The previous ones were fine, but the four characters of Cheng He Dingtong have become an official with a group of wives and concubines. Aren't the roles you played before all unrestrained and unrestrained?" Spirituality, or youth campus, where did this clichéd greasy painting style come from?"

Tang Xiu was so close that he could clearly see beads of sweat dripping down Hu Guangran's temples.Hu Guangran's assistant rushed up to touch up his makeup in two steps, probably to ease the embarrassment, but unexpectedly, Jiang Qiao waved his hand, "Don't be too busy to touch up the makeup, just close the camera seat, and let the two actors find it first." Feeling, otherwise it’s useless.”

Tang Xiu tsk tsk in his heart, Jiang Qiao's temper really has no bounds, it seems that everyone's previous advice was correct.

This director is not easy to mess with.

Hu Guangran was so nervous that he knew that he was in a bad state, and he was a bit flustered when he got such a good role in "Zhanhutai". Today at noon, he should have carefully studied the role, but instead he used it to fight with Wang Yu.Jiang Qiao was already angry, and his performance is not good now. This is only the first shot, and Jiang Qiao really got anxious.

Hu Guangran's mind has gone blank, and he seems to be endlessly grasping at the script.Jiang Qiao came over with an ugly face, and tried to enlighten him by trying to control his temper.

"There is nothing wrong with what Tang Xiu said just now. You didn't audition for this role at the beginning, so there is a problem with your understanding of the character. Bai Feng is not a stubborn fox patriarch, he is just a grown-up Xiaobai. Bai sees that the world is more sinister, but he still has chivalry in his heart. He wants Xiaobai to beware of the human race, but he can't bear to tell him all the cruel facts, so he uses the four words Cheng He Ding Tong as an excuse, so Don't be so imposing in the last half of the line, after all, it's just an excuse he used to suppress Xiaobai, understand?"

Hu Guangran nodded quickly, "Thank you director, thank you director."

He not only thanked Jiang Qiao for coming to give advice, but also thanked Jiang Qiao for not saying this sentence through the loudspeaker.If everyone heard the director's words "There is nothing wrong with what Tang Xiu said", it would be too ugly to spread his reputation that an old man can't be helped by a newcomer.

Jiang Qiao is an old fritter, so he naturally knows what Hu Guangran is thinking.But he didn't show kindness to protect Hu Guangran's face, he was afraid that if he said a word, Hu Guangran would bear a grudge against Tang Xiu.

Jiang Qiao turned his head and glanced at Tang Xiu, "Go play with him twice more, and say hello when you feel that you're done."

Tang Xiu nodded slightly, "Okay."

After Hu Guangran got Jiang Qiao's suggestion, he got into the mood quite a bit, and his tone and demeanor became smoother.Tang Xiu walked with him twice, and simulated several different movements with him, comparing them to see which one was more natural.After Hu Guangran entered the state, he was quite reliable, and he didn't have much emotion, and he communicated with Tang Xiu very smoothly.

"Actually, it's better not to come up at the beginning. After hearing Xiaobai's decision, Baifeng should be subconsciously stunned for a while, and then walk in front of Xiaobai after saying that I don't allow it." Tang Xiu said, "Would you like to try it?"

Hu Guangran nodded, and took a few steps back, "I'll try."

But he didn't expect him to finish his first line. As soon as he looked up, Jiang Qiao said through the loudspeaker, "The action is too ugly. Didn't you play a fairy-like male second in the school drama you broadcast last month?" Well, your gait was better then than it is now."

Hu Guangran was not more frustrated when he was scolded, but suddenly realized, "Does the director want that feeling?"

Jiang Qiao snorted, "There are higher demands, and now is not the time to raise them. You can give me sixty points first."

"Okay, okay." Hu Guangran backed away, paused, and came again.

This time, he started and stepped a lot more briskly, he was no longer holding his hands like before, and the feeling of being a rich man who was ridiculed by Jiang Qiao was gone.

Tang Xiu wanted to praise him, but something suddenly flashed through his mind.

He frowned and stared at Hu Guangran, "Wait a minute, can you step back and do it again?"

Hu Guangran was taken aback, "What's wrong?"

Tang Xiu casually made up an excuse, "When you stepped your legs just now, there seemed to be a black spot on your hem. Let me see if I'm hallucinating."

"Really?" Hu Guangran lowered his head and shook his clothes, but found nothing, but seeing Tang Xiu's serious expression, he had no choice but to back away and walk again.

"How? Is there any more?"

Tang Xiu shook his head, "Maybe I was wrong."

It took another five shots for this shot to pass. Tang Xiu knew from Jiang Qiao's expression that he was still not very satisfied, and he would have to retake this shot if he couldn't keep it.

However, Hu Guangran was finally let go today. When Jiang Qiao announced that work was over, he could hear Hu Guangran beside him let out a sigh of relief.

"Director Jiang's crew is indeed too devilish." Hu Guangran groaned, "Hey, but I really learned a lot. When Director Jiang scolds you, just saying a few words is more useful than many directors saying a lot. He He is very good at pointing out people and getting to the point.”

Tang Xiu nodded, "Yeah, but Director Jiang really has a bad temper."

Hu Guangran couldn't help laughing, "Hey, you're a bit too much. Director Jiang has a bad temper but never confronted you. Your kid is born to match his aura. He is so gentle to you."

Tang Xiu didn't answer.After Hu Guangran finished speaking, he waved his hands, "But you are really good. You don't look like someone who has never filmed before. You have a good grasp of the role."

Tang Xiu said, "In the beginning, this role was mine. At that time, I asked Director Jiang many times for advice."

"That's it." Hu Guangran was obviously relieved, and patted Tang Xiu on the shoulder, "That's good, otherwise I really feel inferior."

Hu Guangran felt relieved and prepared to take off his makeup and go to dinner with the troops.Tang Xiu didn't leave immediately, he looked at Hu Guangran from behind.

As he had just observed, the way the man walked was interesting.

Normal people start at random, depending on the foot of the center of gravity at the time. In order to save effort, they usually take the other foot first.But Hu Guangran was different. When he walked towards Tang Xiu for the first time, his starting posture clearly focused on his right foot, but he temporarily shifted his weight to his left foot, and stepped out with his right foot first.Tang Xiu asked him to walk a second time. The second time he started with his left foot, he didn't step on his right foot first, but shifted his weight to his right foot.

This person is not obsessed with taking a certain foot first, but is used to pausing to change the center of gravity before taking the first step.This was a big move, and it was easy to spot on camera, but he did it so quickly and naturally that even Jiang Qiao didn't pick on him.

Tang Xiu's assistant waved to him not far away to ask him to eat, Tang Xiu agreed, and followed behind to go there.

This walking habit suddenly reminded him of a person.

Lu Kangjing.
