Chapter 366
366 The auction
During the filming of ” demon, ” Jiang se was the first one to arrive at the scene every day. Sometimes, she would not leave even after the filming was over. Instead, she would watch her own or someone else’s performance.
“When Zhao rang convinced me to play the role of Luo Shen, I didn’t intend to take it at all.”
Liu Ye raised his hand to cover his mouth and said in a low voice,
the script is good, but the success of a film is not only dependent on the script.
Zhang Jingan nodded. Liu Ye continued, ”
“But Jiang se convinced me.”
Liu Ye recalled the time when Xia Chaoqun had agreed on a time with him. When he saw Jiang se, she was emaciated and her eyes were so dark that it sent chills down one’s spine. She was a woman who had lost her daughter, family, and hope.
At that moment, Liu Ye did not even need to prepare. He was easily brought into the scene by her emotions and acted together with her.
Back then, Zhao rang had applauded his and Jiang SE’s impromptu performance. Even yang Boxi had thought that he was able to get into character so quickly because of his superb acting skills and rich acting experience.
However, when Liu Ye thought about it carefully, he realized that he had been influenced by Jiang se at that moment. She was immersed in her role in the movie. Such emotions could easily move people. At that moment, Liu Ye even felt that Jiang se was like someone who had lost everything she once had. He saw loneliness in her eyes.
However, she did not lose anything. Her fans were not clear about her family’s situation and Xia Chaoqun had protected her privacy. However, according to Liu Ye’s knowledge, she came from an ordinary background. She had a boyfriend and a job. The opportunity was right in front of her. With a manager like Xia Chaoqun, she should have been doing well back then.
In other words, the loneliness that Liu Ye saw in her eyes might be the best performance she could put on when she was immersed in the plot.
At that moment, Liu Ye felt that Jiang se might have been born to be in this industry. If she could really ‘bring her character to life’, the impression she would leave on others would not be Jiang se, the nameless Zhou family maid in “rescue mission “, or the doukou in” Beiping incident “. Instead, she would be the real Zhang Yuqin in “the devil “. Liu Ye could not think of any reason why he would not work with her.
When he read the script and the novel, Liu Ye’s analysis of Zhang Yuqin’s character was based on his altered judgment, just like the very rigid impression of Luo Shen that he had interpreted.
Zhang Yuqin, female, her relationship with her husband is distant. She’s a woman in the insurance business. She has an only daughter, ZhuZhu, and her life is poor.
Prior to this, he could accurately describe Zhang Yuqin in words. However, when he saw Jiang se, he had a clear impression of her. At that time, the film crew had not been established, and Zhao rang had not even drawn any storyboard. Yet, she had already grasped the essence of Zhang Yuqin.
Liu Ye later noticed that after the production team was set up, Zhao rang was more or less influenced by Jiang se when he drew the image of Zhang Yuqin in the storyboard.
“I don’t think beauty is her greatest weapon.”
She had not changed her mind. Despite being in the entertainment industry for so many years, she had never changed her mind. While filming the movie, he noticed that Jiang SE’s attitude during filming was the same as when she was in “rescue mission.
Zhao rang’s requirements were strict. If he couldn’t do it once, he would do it a second time, a third time, and a fourth time.
Until everyone was exhausted, and many of the crew members were complaining about how tired they were, she was the only one who gritted her teeth and held on.
In one of the scenes in which she was looking for ZhuZhu, Zhang Yuqin had to look for a haystack. Jiang se reached out to flip through it without a word. After that, her arms were cut with wounds of various sizes. The scene was captured by the camera. The stunt double that she had prepared and the special effects in the post-production were not needed.
This might be the reason why Zhao rang was particularly fond of her.
After filming ” the demon, ” during the production team’s end-of-production party, Zhao rang had jokingly said that after being in the industry for so many years, his favorite actress was Jiang se. In the future, as long as Jiang se was willing, he would always welcome her into his crew.
I’ll arrange a time to meet her after the banquet.
Zhang Jingan’s words meant that their conversation had come to an end.
hmm, ” Liu Ye replied softly. Zhang Jingan’s film investment company was a few well-known foreign companies. Under certain circumstances, he might not be able to make the final decision. However, he had the thought that he would need to come into contact with Jiang se for future collaborations.
The two of them chatted for a while and looked at the time. The auction was about to begin.
The host of the banquet was Sheng Jingzhi, the host of ” a filmmaker in the industry. the senior management of ” the grace of the times ” gave their speeches on stage one after another. It was only half an hour later that the auction really began.
According to the rules of an auction, the main event was always at the back. The first few items were costumes and jewelry that had some sentimental significance donated by some celebrities. It was rare to have a valuable item.
The first few items were all sold for a price of less than 10000.
Jiang se calculated the upper limit of what she could afford in her heart. She then set her eyes on the folding fan that Shao cunjin had donated.
This folding fan was the masterpiece of Zhou Shijie, a well-known craftsman during the late Qing Dynasty. It was carved out of mahogany. According to her valuation, the market price of this fan was about 600000 Yuan. Under such circumstances, it might be able to be auctioned for 650000 to 700000 Yuan on Shao cunjin’s account.
However, this fan had been there for a long time and looked antique. From the outside, it didn’t look fashionable. It wasn’t very popular with beautiful stars, but some antique merchants would buy it for collection.
However, most of the people who came tonight were in the entertainment industry, so there weren’t many people who would make a move. The budget Yu Wei gave her should be just enough.
Most importantly, if he won this fan, he could give it to Feng Zhongliang to play with. Other people would not like such an item, but Feng Zhongliang would definitely take a fancy to it.
When she thought of this, Jiang se turned around and picked up the album. She spread it out in front of Feng Zhongliang.
“Grandpa, how about I bid for this fan and give it to you?”
In fact, Feng Zhongliang had come here for ou miaosheng’s painting. He was not keen on such banquets, and he did not think that there was anything worth selling at such an occasion other than the painting that Feng Nan had thrown out. Previously, Xiao Liu had told him about some of the items in the auction house, but they were nothing more than clothes and accessories, which he was not interested in.
However, when he heard Jiang SE’s words and saw her open the album, he turned to take a look. He found it rather interesting.
This fan seemed out of place compared to the other items on the blueprint, but to him, it was something that was hard to come by. His interest was piqued, and he looked at it again.
“You don’t need to spend money. Save it for your dowry in the future.”
