Chapter 61: Routine

"What are you doing? Don't you know how to respect the old and love the young!"

"That is, what's wrong with coming in to see? Isn't this under the feet of the imperial city? Why can't the common people come in?"

"Call security!"

The studio is in the Central Conservatory of Music, and security is strict. I don't know how these old men and women who were walking their dogs and children got in.

Ning Hao leaned over quietly: "These should be hired by them with money, and the security at the door must have been taken care of."

Before the mask incident, basically all universities were undefended, the walls were just for show, and the old men and women in the nearby residential areas who walked dogs and children could basically come and go freely.

The Central Conservatory of Music is a university directly under the Ministry of Education. Zhang Tianshuo certainly couldn't organize a group of local ruffians to make trouble. These old men and women in shabby clothes were the best weapons.

When they come, they stand in front of your camera and sit on your prop box.

Non-violent non-cooperation! We are all Gandhi!

Nicholas Tse and the three stole a look at Seeing Lu Kuan's expression, disappointed that they didn't capture any useful expression, not even a trace of fluctuation.

Boss Lu picked up the microphone used to command the set: "Attention all units, rest this morning. Protect the equipment and props, and disband on the spot."

He also smiled and told the old men and women: "Everyone, pay attention when walking. It's okay for you to occupy the field, but you have to pay for damage to property."

"We are resting in the morning. Everyone, old men and women, should disperse first. Those who leave first can get mineral water at the door. We won't keep you for lunch!"

Then he gave Ning Hao a wink, sending these "old immortals" away safely first, so as not to let any of them fall and then rely on him.

Qiu Yuanxu couldn't stand it anymore, pulled Seeing Lu Kuan's corner of the clothes, and signaled to talk on the side.

"This is obviously intentional. Do you want to reflect the situation to Teacher Tian?"

"It's okay, let them be arrogant for a few days."

Seeing Lu Kuan called the assistant director of the crew: "Arrange for everyone to rest, and listen to the arrangements in the afternoon."

The employees of the Youth Film Studio were all stunned. Before, it was passive sabotage, and now the crew was about to disband, but how could the director still be so leisurely?

*Hey! Young people are unreliable. I guess it's another second generation who took money from home to mess around. *

"Ah Zai, us?"

Edison Chen looked at Nicholas Tse. This was his nickname in the Hong Kong circle.

Nicholas Tse raised his mouth coolly: "The director is the biggest in the crew, listen to the director!"

Feng Yuanzheng was also a bit disheartened. He came for Seeing Lu Kuan's Grotowski acting method, wanting to explore the similarities and differences between the teaching of Ms. Mersin in Germany and Seeing Lu Kuan's path in practice.

Unexpectedly, this young director's control over the crew was so weak. Not to mention that he couldn't suppress these arrogant soldiers in Hong Kong, now even normal opening had become a problem.

More than ten minutes passed, and the scene was left with a mess.

Seeing Lu Kuan smoked one cigarette after another on the set. The other party had already made a move, so the purpose was very clear.

If they just wanted to drag him to death, it was impossible. The acting contracts of the three Hong Kong young actors were still in his hands. If the crew didn't start work, they would have no work.

The entertainment industry has always seen newcomers laugh, not hear old people cry.

Let Nicholas Tse, Edison Chen, and others, who were already embroiled in controversy and urgently needed exposure, accompany the crew to waste time?

They wouldn't be willing themselves.

This was hoping that he would know the difficulties and retreat and give up voluntarily, or use the contract terms to directly terminate the contract unilaterally!

But what was Zhang Jianting doing in it? This was one point he didn't figure out.

Nicholas Tse and others said they were dissatisfied with the treatment, dissatisfied with his strict requirements, or had differences in creative ideas, all of which could be understood.

Zhang Jianting, a big Hong Kong director, a big boss's son-in-law, why was he competing with a little person like him?

Could it be that Liu Zeyu also promised him any extra "clearance rewards"?

"Director, Director!"

Seeing Lu Kuan's meditation was broken. Turning around, it was the actor Gu Ming of the crew, 01 class of the Beijing Film Academy junior college class, who was an alumnus with him.

"Senior Brother Gu, we are not filming in the morning, why haven't you left yet?"

Boss Lu showed a signature smile, the very sincere kind.

If someone like Zhuang Xu, who knew his background, was present, he would definitely be able to see the unusualness of this expression.

"Hey, it's hard to do things in this day and age."

"Senior brother, let's sit in my room for a while?"

Gu Ming still appreciated this young director.

He met Seeing Lu Kuan when he was auditioning for another play at the Beijing Film Studio. At that time, Seeing Lu Kuan was leaving Tian Zhuangzhuang's place, and the two met face to face.

Seeing Lu Kuan felt that he was more suitable to play one of the cello players in the school band in the movie, so he invited him to audition and join the crew.

The two sat down in the room. Gu Ming took the initiative to get up and boil water to make tea, which was politely taken over by Seeing Lu Kuan.

"Senior brother, we are all from the same school, and you are still a senior, don't be polite."

"On the set, we are director and actor. Outside the set, we are all brothers. Don't talk about this set."

Gu Ming adjusted his glasses: "Okay, then listen to you."

"Director Lu, I have always heard about the Grotowski you and Teacher Feng talked about. It feels quite interesting. Is it the set of methods you take Little Liu to practice every morning?"

"That's right. This acting theory is not widely circulated abroad. I estimate that only I and Teacher Feng have practiced it in China, and now there is one more Little Liu."

"Originally, I was able to invite a powerful actor like Teacher Feng to appear, which was also because he agreed for the purpose of acting exchange. Unexpectedly, now..."

*Hey! Filming is not easy, Little Lu sighed. *

Gu Ming smoked, looking at Seeing Lu Kuan, who was gray and defeated, with vigilance. Watching this young director walk from high-spirited to today step by step, he also felt unbearable in his heart.

Except for the roles of extras and group performances, this play was also his first work with shots and lines.

Gu Ming asked tentatively: "Director Lu, these old men and women should be organized."

Then he added: "It should be inseparable from these three Hong Kong actors, Nicholas Tse."

He thought about it, from any angle, it was impossible for Seeing Lu Kuan to know his background.

Even when auditioning for the role of cello player, he was almost eliminated by him, and it was because the original role had a better place to go that he was able to fill the vacancy.

At this time, Gu Ming didn't know that the longest road he had walked in his life was Boss Lu's routine.
