There were so many reporters, so Lu Chen couldn't answer all their questions. After dealing with the interviews from a few important media outlets, he found an excuse to leave the scene.
'You from the Star' was about to start filming, and he had a lot of important work to complete today.
And in the suite of Shangri-la Hotel that the crew chartered, Lu Chen met two artists from South Korea.
One of them was recommended by SPG, while the other was recommended by KGS TV Station. They would play the second male and third female supporting roles in the show respectively. They were both rather important roles.
The reason why they accepted these two Korean artists was mainly because of the demand for the Korean market. They wanted to further increase the viewership ratings of the new show in Korea, and also because of the request from their partners.
The two of them flew over from Seoul yesterday, and only met Lu Chen today.
The second male supporting role was called Zheng Tai. He was 21 years old this year, tall, handsome, and very sunny.
He was a celebrity that SPG had carefully nurtured. He had just debuted this year, and was already quite famous in Korea. However, he didn't have any outstanding works yet.
That was why SPG tried their best to push him into the cast of 'You Star', with the intention of making Zheng Tai soar through the show and become the new leader of SPG.
Apart from participating in the filming of 'You Star', SPG also asked Chenfei Media for the cover rights of many of Lu Chen's pop music works at a high price to build Zheng Tai's brand image.
In the past, it was very rare for a famous Korean management company to ask for the rights of pop songs from China. That was because it was usually the local record companies who bought the works from Korea for their singers to cover.
In terms of pop music, Koreans had always been very proud. Even though they also had a history of imitating and singing European, American, and Japanese songs, the Korean entertainment industry had now surpassed Japan and was spreading its influence throughout Asia.
Therefore, SPG's request was undoubtedly very embarrassing for Lu Chen and Chenfei Media.
Zheng Tai, who was recommended by SPG, wasn't an ordinary person either. He could speak fluent Chinese and was very humble and polite in front of Lu Chen, treating Lu Chen like his teacher.
In comparison, Jin Jiana, who was recommended by KGS TV Station, was much worse. Even though she was very beautiful and had a good figure, her Chinese was stuttering and her conversation with Lu Chen was very tense.
After a brief chat with the two artists from South Korea, Lu Chen led the crew of "Xing You" to China Film City in Huairou District without stopping, and devoted himself to the shooting of the new drama on the same day.
China Film Huairou Film City was a film filming base invested by China Film Group in 2010. It was also the largest film city in Beijing. Although it wasn't as large as the three major film cities, the facilities were quite good.
Most importantly, its location was very good. It could be reached directly by taking the subway line 7, and it was also connected to the ring highway. There were many five-star hotels nearby, and it was not far from the bustling business district.
Most of the scenes of 'You Star' would be filmed in Beijing.
For this new TV series, the cast of the film crew was undoubtedly very strong. Based on the original Full House of Romance, it had been greatly expanded. With Beijing Television Station's strong support, coupled with the fact that the preparations were very thorough, the filming went very smoothly from the start.
Lu Chen and Chen Fei 'er, together with Chenfei Media, threw themselves into the filming of' You Star '.
At the same time, 'The Voice of China', which the two participated in producing together, swept across the screen and set off a wave of 'The Voice' in the domestic variety industry.
Since the premiere of this live-action singing show on the 19th of May, the ratings had been rising steadily. The current average rating was 6.7%, ruthlessly crushing all other variety shows in the same period. It could be said that it was invincible in the ratings rankings.
A group of newcomers in the music industry made a name for themselves through 'The Voice of China'. Anxin, Li Keyan, Zhang Ye … and other students of 'The Voice' quickly rose to fame, stirring up the domestic pop music industry.
…
"Cut!"
Fang Hui waved her hand and a smile appeared on her serious face. "It's over."
Finally, it was over!
Now, all the crew members breathed a sigh of relief. This scene had been NGed more than a dozen times. It was either the actors memorizing the wrong lines or laughing during the scene, or the lighting or camerawork was not in place. Director Fang Hui was not satisfied no matter what, tormenting everyone to the point of vomiting blood.
Lu Chen also breathed a Big sigh of relief. He reached out to pull the tie around his neck. His forehead was covered in sweat and he felt as if he had been cooked in a steamer. His whole body was wet and uncomfortable.
This was how it was as an actor. Don't be fooled by how amazing you look in front of others, but you still have to endure hardships and tiring work. What he was going through now was considered child's play.
Today's scene was filmed at Beijing Foreign Studies University.
The male lead he was playing came from an alien planet and hid his identity as a university professor. Therefore, many of the scenes had to be filmed at the university.
And these campus scenes were all filmed at Beijing Foreign Studies University, just in time for the summer holidays.
"Teacher Lu Chen …"
As soon as Lu Chen sat down in his chair, a beautiful girl in a white short skirt walked over quickly and respectfully handed him a bottle of iced mineral water.
She stammered, "I … I'm really … sorry, I made a lot of mistakes."
This girl was Jin Jiana, an actress from South Korea. Today's scene was between her and Lu Chen.
Jin Jiana's character was a college girl who admired the male lead. She was not very experienced in acting and was a little nervous. At least five or six NGs were caused by her.
Lu Chen took the mineral water from her and smiled. "It doesn't matter. Everyone makes mistakes. As long as you correct them in time and don't make them again next time, it will be fine. Your performance today was very good."
Lu Chen's encouragement made Jin Jiana's pretty face blush. She looked at Lu Chen shyly, bowed and whispered, "Teacher Lu Chen, I, I want to invite you to dinner tonight, I don't know …"
The voice of this South Korean actress was very charming. Although her Chinese was not good, her soft voice had a different kind of temptation, which made people feel itchy when they heard it.
And the way she looked at Lu Chen, there was undisguised admiration in her eyes.
Lu Chen was not an insensitive man. How could he not see Jin Jiana's affection and intimacy for him?
It would be a lie to say that he was not moved at all, but it was not just an instinctive impulse.
He smiled and said, "Thank you, but I have an appointment tonight."
