Chapter 417: The Birch Forest Dance King

Inside an underground dance hall converted from an abandoned warehouse.

Gao Yuanyuan was still wearing the same dark red tweed coat, looking rustic.

She was reading Qin Hao's entertainment magazine.

Turning to the page introducing Zhang Yuan, this guy was just like Haozi, his eyes moving around, staring with wide eyes for a long time, then showing a happy smile, but quickly biting his lip.

"He's really good."

"The box office of the movies he starred in has reached hundreds of millions!"

Gao Yuanyuan thought about it.

In terms of appearance, figure, ability, and future, Zhang Yuan basically scored perfect marks.

The key is to speak nicely.

But I was too slow!
He actually let that woman get it.

Thinking of this, she turned to look at Zhang Yuan, her eyes becoming more and more passionate.

But Zhang Yuan didn't notice her gaze towards him.

Because his attention at the moment was on a short man next to Qin Hao.

This man's name is Zhang Yu, and he is not good-looking.

From height to appearance, there is no advantage to be found.

He has a bad temperament, is dark and thin, and has a hairy face and a bad mouth.

But Zhang Yuan knew that this person's ability was not weak.

You may not be familiar with other characters, but you must know Huang Mao in "Dying to Survive" and Hu Guangsheng in "The Unknown".

I love your mom’s love for you…this is him.

Just like the lines spoken by Uncle Ge who plays Uncle Li in "A World Without Thieves".

“What is the most expensive thing in the 21st century?”

"Talent!"

Zhang Yu can also be considered a talent.

Zhang Yuan walked forward.

Gao Yuanyuan was standing in the same place as Qin Hao and others. When they saw Zhang Yuan coming towards them with a smile on his face, they thought he was looking for them.

She quickly glanced at Wang Xiaoshuai and saw that he was busy with other things, so she quickly fixed her hair.

"Zhang Yuan, you're looking for me..."

"Hello."

Gao Yuanyuan: ...

Zhiruo just put on a smile and walked over, wanting to say a few ambiguous words to this male artist who had the bonus of being someone else's boyfriend.

However, he found that the other party didn't respond at all, but instead walked towards an unknown young actor next to him.

"Hello..." Zhang Yuan was talking about a play with Qin Hao when he suddenly heard someone calling him and turned around.

Then there was a pause.

Isn’t this the “300 million box office newcomer”?

Only Zhang Yuan himself doesn't know this nickname, but everyone else has heard of it...

"Hello, I'm Zhang Yuan, nice to meet you."

"Hello, Brother Yuan!" Zhang Yu quickly put on a smile, bowed his head and shook hands with him.

The male lead of the film has played a lot of roles, from TV series to movies, in just a few years since his debut.

Now you come up to me and say hello, how can I be rude?

Zhang Yu thought so.

Qin Hao, who was standing by, felt very uncomfortable when he saw this.

"Just now, you were calling me Brother Hao, Brother Hao..."

"Since Brother Yuan came, no one cares about Brother Hao anymore."

Zhang Yu now works in the Guizhou Repertory Theatre and is a main actor.

He is not tall and looks average, but he can still become a leading actor, which shows his ability.

When Wang Xiaoshuai went to select people, he chose him at first sight.

In addition to his acting skills, Director Wang was attracted to him mainly because Zhang Yu had similar experiences to himself.

He was originally from Chongqing, but his parents and grandparents went to support the Third Front and brought him to Guizhou, where he became a "factory child."

There are many children of factory and mine workers in the local area, and they have formed their own faction.

They even have their own dialect, called "Railway Dialect", which is a special language that is a combination of the Sichuan and Chongqing dialects and the Yunnan and Guizhou dialects.

Just like the children of these third-line supporters.

Are they from Chongqing or Guizhou?

Their hometown people think they are from Guizhou, and the local people think they are from Chongqing. In short, they are neither here nor there.

Zhang Yu grew up under this kind of identity contradiction.

After graduating from the Performance Department of Guizhou University, he joined the drama troupe.

But in his heart, he has always had a dream of going to a big city, especially the imperial capital.

Qin Hao was a top student at the Central Academy of Drama, so of course he was envious.

He admires popular actors like Zhang Yuan even more.

After chatting with him for a long time and understanding the general situation, Zhang Yuan smiled and invited him.

"If you have a chance to visit the imperial capital, I will treat you."

"If you want to develop in the imperial capital, I can also introduce you to the crew."

"Leave me my phone number. If you come, come directly to me."

After saying that, he took out his cell phone.

Zhang Yu was overjoyed. He had always wanted to go to the imperial capital, but had no acquaintances there.

Now an acquaintance actually came to my door.

And he's a pretty powerful acquaintance.

"Don't hesitate to contact me anytime," Zhang Yuan said.

"Hey, I'll definitely look for you when I come to the capital."

Zhang Yuan thought that although he was not as grassroots as Baoqiang, he also had a grassroots wildness, which was quite unique.

If there is an opportunity and the other party is willing, it would be a good thing to sign him to your company.

After Zhang Yuan finished speaking, he ran to the side and stopped disturbing their filming.

"Brother Yuan, walk slowly."

"Keep in touch..." Zhang Yu held the phone as if it were a treasure. When he turned around, he saw Qin Hao's angry expression.

"With the arrival of this sweet little Zhang Yuan, I have become Mrs. Niu..."

Qin Hao was annoyed. He had been getting along well with Zhang Yu, but he didn't expect that as soon as the other party showed up, he would abduct his "little brother" away... Zhang Yu played his little brother in the film.

After roughly rehearsing the movements, the crew officially started filming.

Qinghong, played by Gao Yuanyuan, looked embarrassed and acted as if she was not used to this kind of underground dance scene.

Zhang Yuan watched from the side and shook his head slightly.

To be honest, her acting skills are average.

Moreover, compared with "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" two years ago, there is not much improvement.

Costume dramas are originally about selling looks, which is still better.

When it comes to art films like this, her acting shortcomings become more obvious.

The treatment of the characters is relatively one-sided. They always look timid and awkward, and there is little expression of the inner thoughts of Qinghong, the contradictory character.

"Sure enough, when God opens one door, he will also close another door." Zhang Yuan shook his head.

Liu Qianqian is the same. She is relatively simple when she plays the role of Xiaolongnu. If the character is sad, she is sad, and if she is happy, she is happy. There are emotions, but they are not layered.

But Xiaolongnu is a very passionate and emotional person, and her simplicity fits the role perfectly.

They are both typical examples of people who lack acting skills and make up for it with their looks.

Next to Gao Yuanyuan stood Wang Xueyang, the actress who played her best friend Xiaozhen. She was a pretty girl with a small round face.

But compared with Gao Yuanyuan, it looks very ordinary.

This person's agency is Yahua, which is the former company of Liu Yonghui, the current president of Star Media.

The two of them stood among the group of girls, forming a circle.

At this time, Qin Hao, wearing frog-eye glasses and a blue jacket, came to the dance floor staggeringly with his younger brothers led by Zhang Yu.

The man took out a cigarette, lit it, and then began to look at the women around him.

The frivolous look on her face can be clearly captured in the camera even through the sunglasses.

"This is what a master does..." Zhang Yuan smiled when he saw his performance.

At this moment, the background music at the shooting scene changed.

From Chinese lyrical dance music, it suddenly changed to disco, which was extremely popular in the 1970s and 1980s.

"wowowowowowo..."

"Gotta Go Home" by the famous disco band Boney M echoed in the closed space.

Qin Hao, with the help of music, came to the naturally formed open space in the center of the crowd, which was the so-called center of the dance floor.

Wow!

He took off the blue jacket, revealing the bright yellow shirt underneath and the plaid flared pants on the lower body.

He was wearing a pair of large pointed leather shoes.

This outfit makes you travel back in time and go back to more than 20 years ago!
If you wear bell-bottom pants these days, people will laugh at you for being old-fashioned.

But nearly twenty years later, this thing became popular again.

Fashion is a cycle.

It is nothing more than re-cutting and re-designing the things that parents and grandparents are tired of wearing, and then using them on the younger generation.

When Zhang Yuan saw how he was dressed, he immediately covered his mouth with his hands.

"puff……"

He almost laughed out loud!

It’s not because his appearance is ugly or rustic, but because he looks so familiar.

"Biaozi, you love dancing so much..."

Qin Hao's current outfit is almost exactly the same as the one he wore in the movie "The Long Season" nearly 20 years later!
Bright yellow top and coffee grey pants.

The sense of déjà vu is just too strong.

Zhang Yuan covered his mouth with one hand and pinched his thigh with the other, and only then did he manage to hold it together.

But he still underestimated the other party.

Qin Hao started to move.

Kick your legs and turn around.

Twisting waist, waving hands...

Phew...Hahahaha...Zhang Yuan couldn't hold back anymore after seeing his dancing moves.

Exactly the same as in The Long Season!
It is obvious that director Xin Shuang is paying tribute to his dance in "Qinghong".

"As expected of you, you are the King of Dance in the Birch Forest...hahaha..."

Not only he couldn't hold it anymore, but Qin Hao in front of the camera couldn't hold it anymore either.

"What are you laughing at!"

Zhang Yuan stood in the dark and watched them perform.

Qin Hao had been paying attention to him.

After all, whenever he thought of Zhang Yuan, his heart was burning with anger.

The other person has less academic qualifications and experience than me, but he is doing so much better than me!
He finally got the script of "Qinghong" which he liked, but he waited for several months in vain for this kid.

It makes me angry just thinking about it.

Especially after seeing the magazine praising him, Qin Hao became even more angry.

Because he found that he actually developed an emotion called "inferiority complex" in front of this person!

This is something he absolutely cannot tolerate!

So after seeing Zhang Yuan watching, he tried his best to perform.

At first, he noticed that Zhang Yuan kept nodding his head at his performance, and thought to himself.

"How about it?"

“Professional, right?”

I feel much better now.

But just as he started dancing, he found that the other person started laughing wildly.

The kind of laughter that makes your shoulders and body shake.

And his laughter became more and more exaggerated, and later he even slapped his thighs.

He was not good at dancing and felt very guilty.

Before filming began, I specially found old videotapes and practiced with local elders.

He had been practicing right up until the scene began.

Because dancing is also a long shot, from beginning to end, more than two minutes without stopping, and there was no stand-in available, so he had to do it all by himself.

He was not confident to begin with, and even when Zhang Yuan was clapping his hands beside him, his defense was instantly broken.

"What the hell are you laughing at!"

"I'm not laughing... haha." Seeing the other party suddenly stop, Zhang Yuan asked angrily and hurriedly explained.

But he couldn't hold back his excitement at the other person's appearance.

"Hey, you're still laughing!"

"I just remembered some happy things." Zhang Yuan told the truth.

"You're obviously laughing at my performance!"

"No, I've been strictly trained not to laugh no matter how funny it is...Pfft!"

"Unless you can't help it..."

"You've gone too far. I've tolerated you for a long time!" Qin Hao rushed towards him.

At this time, Zhang Yuan had already put his fingers into his mouth in order to hold back his laughter.

"He was laughing the whole time and never stopped!" Qin Hao came to him, pulled his arm, and then said to director Wang Xiaoshuai.

"Sorry, I'll be out for a while. I won't disturb you." Zhang Yuan apologized and wanted to go out... to laugh for a while outside.

"Don't leave. Tell me clearly, is my dance that funny?"

"It's a good dance, very contemporary." Zhang Yuan replied, holding his breath.

Qin Hao was also holding his breath.

"Director, he laughed at me!"

Wang Xiaoshuai also had a headache because he knew that Qin Hao was very arrogant.

There are only a few leading actors in the crew, and now conflicts have arisen.

"Okay, okay, you smile..." Qin Hao said unhappily: "If you can do it, go ahead!"

He still thought that Zhang Yuan was laughing at him for his poor dancing skills.

After he said that, he swung his arms and walked aside angrily.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoshuai hurried forward to comfort him.

"He didn't mean it." Director Wang also had a headache.

"He did it on purpose." Qin Hao was stubborn: "I practiced for so long, but he laughed at me when I jumped."

"I think you danced well, very well."

Wang Xiaoshuai thought that he had to talk to Zhang Yuan and ask him to apologize to Haozi so as not to affect the filming.

The director is like the patriarch of the family and has to take care of everything on the crew.

It is common for conflicts to occur between actors and between actors and crew members.

There are fights all the time in a class of 20 to 30 students.

A film crew can have dozens of people at least, or hundreds or even thousands at most. It is bound to have some conflicts.

The director is very familiar with this.

"Okay, Zhang Yuan is a nice guy, he definitely didn't mean it."

"Let's have dinner together tomorrow. We're from the same crew, so it's no big deal..."

In just a few minutes, Wang Xiaoshuai had smoothed out the stubborn Qin Hao.

"Let's work first..."

But just when he was about to pull Haozi back to act, cheers came from the crowd over there.

The two turned their heads away, not knowing what was going on.

I saw everyone clapping and clapping in unison.

After pushing through the crowd, the two discovered that Zhang Yuan was in the open space, lightly twisting his body using the same dance steps as Qin Hao.

Qin Hao's eyes almost popped out of his head.

He has practiced for a long time, so he understands very well that dancing is not an easy job.

But his movements were smooth and silky, and every kick and swing of the hand seemed natural.

He actually saw the sexiness of the human body in a man!

Especially when compared with the dance moves he had just performed, he felt that all his practice was in vain.

Not to mention him, in "The Return of the Condor Heroes", Yu Min artistically depicted the scene where Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu practiced the Jade Girl Heart Sutra.

Just like the "Dragon Rider" scene, it was filmed as a scene of Sissi swimming in the water.

The Jade Girl Heart Sutra is arranged as a synchronized folk dance performed by two people, expressing the state of unity of mind and spirit between the two people, which is both elegant and romantic.

During the filming, as soon as the two started dancing, Liu Xiaoli, who was watching, was shocked.

"Why is Zhang Yuan such a good dancer?"

"The body is smooth, the movements are relaxed, and most importantly... she looks a bit like my daughter..."

Zhang Yuan got most of his dance-related points from the mother and daughter.

Liu Qianqian was taught by her mother, so how could she not look like her?

After watching it, Liu Xiaoli wanted to introduce Zhang Yuan to the Wuhan Song and Dance Theater.

"It's a pity for this kid to be an actor..."

When it comes to dancing, Zhang Yuan makes Aunt Liu feel closer to him.

After all, dancing is Lao Liu's life. The reason why he broke up with Lao An was related to his dancing career.

Even Aunt Liu, a top-notch dancer in China, thought he danced well, let alone these actors.

Although the dance styles are different, he has a good foundation. The disco Qin Hao just danced is simple and he can basically learn it after watching it once.

"I..." Qin Hao opened his mouth.

"He just laughed at me...it seemed like he should have done so."

He didn't expect that the other party was so much stronger than him!

Wang Xiaoshuai’s eyes also brightened after reading it.

"I should have let him play Lu Jun earlier."

"This dance is great!"

After Zhang Yuan finished dancing, he bowed to thank everyone and then ran to Qin Hao.

"I can also do this dance, so I'm really not making fun of you."

"I just remembered a friend who dances very funny. Sorry," he explained.

He danced a little, partly to explain that he didn't mean to make fun of him.

Secondly, he also saw Qin Hao's temper.

This boy is too arrogant!

If I don't show him some power and suppress his arrogance, how can I use him in the future?
This guy's acting skills are considered top-notch in the whole of China, so of course Zhang Yuan is greedy for his body.

"If I had known you were such a good dancer, I would have let you teach Haozi." Wang Xiaowei looked happy.

He acted well, had a good understanding of camera language, and was also a great dancer.

How many surprises does this kid have hidden?

"Let's learn from each other." Zhang Yuan pulled Qin Hao's shoulder affectionately.

"How about I teach you how to dance and you teach me how to act?"

"Uh……"

Qin Hao heard it and thought, yes!

I'm good at acting, not dancing.

"Okay!" He agreed immediately.

Zhang Yuan thought to himself, this guy is not very cunning. He took my polite words seriously.

The little incident passed.

After Zhang Yuan gave him some pointers, Qin Hao's dancing performance in front of the camera became noticeably smoother.

This scene was also filmed very quickly.

Then he saw Qin Hao take out a toothbrush and the disposable toothpaste used in hotels from his pocket.

"What are you..."

After what happened just now, Qin Hao became much more polite towards him and smiled a little embarrassedly.

"We'll be filming a kissing scene later, and brushing your teeth."

Quite talented.

The previous shot of him involved a smoking scene, and the kissing scene later would indeed make the other person feel uncomfortable.

The kissing scene in "Qinghong" is also very interesting.

Because when filming, all the lights will be turned off at the same time... (End of this chapter)
