the next day.

The birds chirped outside the window, and the weather was better.

He Xiao got up while yawning. He had a task today to take the script with Lao Yu to meet the old actor Duan Guoyuan.

I changed into a refreshing sportswear and shaved the stubble at the corners of my lips, and I looked much more comfortable.

My mother walked out of the kitchen with a bowl on her back and looked up and said, "You're so anxious? The rice is hot in the pot, and you'll leave after eating."

He Xiao shook his hand: "No need for mom, I'm having an appointment with someone."

My mother said, "Can you come back at noon and eat?"

When He Xiao saw that it was too late, he put on his shoes and shouted, "Don't ask, I'm not hungry!" After that, the person had already opened the door and flew out.

"Hey, I'm still pulling the Beijing accent." My mother rolled her eyes, walked to the door and brought the door.

...

downstairs.

He Xiao drove out of the underground garage in Rafa and rushed directly to a teahouse in Dongcheng.

Last night, I had already agreed to meet at 9 o'clock in the morning. He Xiao didn't dare to be late, for fear of giving them the impression of being a big shot, so I didn't plan to eat breakfast anymore. I'll talk about it at noon after the talks.

Yu Xiao had already arrived in advance and was looking at his cell phone in the private room. After seeing He Xiao come in, the two of them sat on the side and waited for Duan Guoyuan together.

As a serious drama actor and an old national artist, he naturally has a strong sense of time. At around 8:50, Duan Guoyuan came to the private room under the guidance of the waiter.

"Teacher Duan, long time no see. This is He Xiao, the boss of He Wanrong's studio, and is also the director, screenwriter and producer of our drama." Yu Xiao stood up and said hello, introduced his identity, and exchanged information between the two.

"Hello, I heard from Brother Yu that you are a drama actor, so I have more advice." He Xiao also greeted him modestly.

Duan Guoyuan took off his coat and smiled and said, "Haha, it turns out that he is a young man. I have watched your drama, it's pretty good." Naturally, it refers to "Charlotte's Troubles".

He Xiao’s first impression of him was that a middle-aged man who was a bit talkative and humorous, with a similar figure to Lin Yunkai and slightly fat.

He is quite famous in the drama troupe, and he has a nickname in this industry, called "Thousand Faces", which means that he has superb acting skills and can play multiple roles in life, and it is vivid and immersed in the audience.

"Teacher Duan, this is the script of our play, please take a look."

Yu Xiao brewed a cup of tea on the table and then pushed the script in front of Duan Guoyuan.

Picking up the thick notebook, you can clearly see the row of big characters "The Unknown".

"Okay, I'll take a closer look."

Duan Guoyuan nodded, he opened the script and read it carefully.

The private room fell into silence for a moment, and the three of them stopped talking. Yu Xiao slapped his head and drank tea, He Xiao looked at his phone, waiting for Duan Guoyuan to read the script.

The teacher was slow enough. It was a long time later that he raised his head, and then his whole body changed. His temperament seemed to be different in an instant. With a bit of aura of the world and a bit of a middle-aged man's career depressed, he said in a deep voice: "I know that I owe you a lot, but there is no way, I am such a person."

The sudden words made the two people in front of him stunned.

But He Xiao realized the next moment. Duan Guoyuan was acting and he was reading the clever lines in the play.

So, relying on the memories that I never forget in my mind, I immediately continued: "You owe so much money, you can't afford to pay it back. If you go back today, they will kill you!"

"Hey...If I pass this level, I will marry you no matter where you are!"

Duan Guoyuan gasped heavily, his eyes feeling like he was fighting back.

After reading this line, He Xiao clapped his hands directly.

"Teacher Duan, your silence is amazing."

“It feels so good.”

Yu Xiao also realized it and then praised him.

I was a little surprised. This professional actor is different from ordinary people. As I was chatting, I suddenly entered the role and started acting. If I reacted slowly, I couldn't keep up with other people's ideas. No wonder I was called "Thousand Faces". There were indeed many faces.

"Hey, I'm fascinated by reading the script. I can't help but act for a while and try the show."

Duan Guoyuan waved his hand and smiled, returned the script to the two of them, and then the old god kept sipping tea.

He Xiao looked at this posture and couldn't help asking, "Then you see, our play..."

"To be honest, it's not just your company that wants to ask me to film. Lejia Film and Television just talked to me three days ago, but I didn't agree directly at that time." Duan Guoyuan said.

"Don't worry, Teacher Duan, every actor has the right to choose his own script, not to mention that you are a respected senior, we respect your opinions." Yu Xiao said in this time, thought about it and added, "We can discuss the pay."

"I did not mean that."

Duan Guoyuan put down the teacup and laughed: "I am a drama actor. I really don't like to take on film and television dramas unless the script is particularly good and can attract my interest."

"I don't call Le Jia in that drama, I think it's time to reject them."

Having said that, He Xiao could not know Duan Guoyuan’s thoughts. The big rock in his heart fell and stretched out his hand and said, “Welcome to the crew of “The Unknown”!”

nailed it.

The rest went much smoother. After the three of them finished tea, they went to the studio together, signed a contract, and officially finalized the role of Gao Ming.

As for other characters, there are also some choices for He Xiao, Zhang Wei, Lin Yunkai, and even Xiang Dayong, who has just signed the contract, will appear in this drama.

The project has been established and the actors have been found. The next thing is to prepare for filming.

Because the shooting location is in Guizhou, after completing the plan in Yanjing, the crew flew directly to Guizhou and then made preparations locally.

Your province is a province without plains. One hundred thousand mountains are connected to each other, forming a unique terrain and urban appearance. The shopping malls are at the foot of the mountain, the residences are halfway up the mountain, and even the airports are in the middle of the mountain. It can be said to be an invisible urban appearance in other areas.

However, although surrounded by mountains, your province is not as backward as you imagine. The jokes like the online people who are still using candles to illuminate are even more nonsense.

On the contrary, the development of your province has been very rapid in recent years, and the high-speed rail network has also been very developed. It only takes dozens of minutes to go from one city to another.

The beautiful landscape and unique Miao villages have also driven the local tourism culture, and more and more people are willing to come to these 100,000 mountains to experience life.

He Xiao and others also took the high-speed rail to travel. In fact, the team's main creator wanted to play in the provincial capital for a few days, but considering the importance of shooting, he finally gave up this plan.

Bridge City is the destination for the shooting of this trip. He Xiao and his team visited this small town surrounded by mountains and rivers for a week. Finally, they determined where to shoot and filed the local area.

...

September 15th.

it's clear.

Amid the sound of firecrackers, the crew of "The Unknown" started filming in a low-key manner.
Chapter completed!
