"Black Clouds" has just been released for only one month, and its cumulative box office has reached nearly 10 billion. With this movie, Rong Xu is at the peak of his career, both popularity and status have reached the peak since his debut.

The first movie was able to become the starring actor and achieved such a terrible box office and reputation. Rong Xu can be said to be the most popular young actor in recent years.

After "Black Clouds", Luo Zhentao carefully selected four plays for Rong Xu. Each of them was a commercial drama with a hot topic and excellent scripts, including romantic comedy, big-produced fairy tale films, and road films that have become popular in recent years. But in the end, Rong Xu had read all the scripts, but chose this "Missy City".

"The Mysterious City" is a suspense detective film. Like many commercial criminal investigation films, it has a dual male protagonist set, with action scenes and plot scenes. As long as the script is qualified and the acting skills are up to standard, the box office will basically not be low.

When Luo Zhentao knew that Rong Xu had chosen the movie "Missed City", he was very surprised. "Xiao Xu, this movie has two male protagonists. Didn't you tell me before that you want to take the lead and choose a commercial film to prove your box office appeal?"

Upon hearing this, Rong Xu put down the script and asked with a smile: "Brother Luo, since you know that this is a two-man protagonist movie, why should you hand over its script to me?"

Luo Zhentao was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he shook his head and said, "Because the script is good..."

Yes, the script of "Missy" is good.

In the entertainment industry, there are two types of casting movies and TV series crews. One is to not have actor auditions at all, and the director or investor directly designate roles; the other is to audition, which audition invitations are submitted to several actors with suitable images. After the audition, it is decided which actor will come to film.

When the crew of "Missed City" sent the script to Luo Zhentao, they gave Luo Zhentao a conclusion directly: "We invite Rong Xu to play the male lead Xue Jiazhe."

It’s not another male lead, and it’s even more impossible to be another supporting role. It’s Xue Jiazhe, and it can only be Xue Jiazhe.

If Rong Xu is willing to take on "The Mysterious City", then he will directly play Xue Jiazhe. If Rong Xu is unwilling to take on "The Mysterious City", or wants to play another male lead, the crew will not accept it, but will directly look for other actors. The position left for Rong Xu by the crew of "The Mysterious City" is Xue Jiazhe, which the director decided based on Rong Xu's image, and this time, he did not misread the person.

After Rong Xu finished reading the script, she really wanted to play Xue Jiazhe.

The whole movie of "The Mysterious City" revolves around a serial murder case. In the prosperous and luxurious Haicheng, a perverted serial murderer suddenly appeared. This murderer's killing method is not unique, but the corpse is handled very cleanly, and the victim's right hand will be cut off every time.

The edge of the knife is flat and smooth, and it can be seen that the knife is simply removed. It directly avoids the main bones of the human body and falls the knife in the middle of the joints.

The police suppressed the case for a year because the murderer had no rules and killed six people within a year. In addition to cutting off his right hand, his murder location, time and method of killing were different. Even the age of the victim ranged from 23 to 64 years old, and there was no limit to men and women.

After the seventh victim appeared, the police finally couldn't suppress it because the victim died in public and the body was hung in the middle of the most lively square in Haicheng. Suddenly, the entire port city was in full swing.

The male protagonist Tan Yangxuan is an elite police officer. He is the team leader of this case. The case has become well known. He has found his college friend under tremendous pressure, which is Xue Jiazhe, a university psychology professor who Rong Xu will play.

Xue Jiazhe analyzed the suspect's psychology and finally helped Tan Yangxuan catch the criminal.

The whole plot is a pursuit battle between the police and the murderer. With the arrest and death penalty of the prisoner, everything finally ends.

If this is the case, Rong Xu would never be interested in this script and would deliberately take on the scene of the two male protagonists. All of this is because there was a big reversal at the end of the movie.

That was after the case was over. Tan Yangxuan came to chat with friends to celebrate. After he got drunk, he didn't know that after Xue Jiazhe dragged him to the bedroom to rest, he opened the wardrobe to help the old classmate change his clothes, but a glass bottle of human specimen was exposed in one corner of the wardrobe.

In the dark green formalin solution, a right hand is suspended in the center, and a gem ring is worn on the thumb, which is the lost property of the fifth victim.

The movie ends here, but this reversal makes the image of the character Xue Jiazhe suddenly plump.

The young and handsome university professor is loved by classmates, elegant and gentle, good friends and even senior police officers in the police station, but no one knows what kind of beast he is hiding behind those pairs of silver-rimmed glasses and smiling at you gently.

Rong Xu had never played such a gentle scum, which made him very interested and wanted to try it out.

In his previous life, he played the protagonists. In the movies and TV series these days, the protagonists are basically positive. It is difficult to have a gangster protagonist who does evil. Rong Xu has never played a big villain, but he has never played such a role that is a good guy on the surface, but in fact he is a big villain.

A high-IQ villain also has very good cultivation and etiquette, which is why Luo Zhentao handed over the script of "The Mysterious City" to Rong Xu.

As for Rong Xu's choice of "Miscellaneous City", he just wanted to break through himself and try different lives.

In mid-May, Rong Xu came to Xiangshan Film and Television City to meet the entire crew. In addition to him, another actor who played the male lead was also present, Bai Xiwen, a famous Chinese film actor.

The crew of "Missy City" rented a modern photography area in Xiangshan Film and Television City. The crew was busy, with unfinished props piled up everywhere. Three days later, the film started filming, and within these three days, Rong Xu, Bai Xiwen and other actors would hold a screenwriter meeting, and everyone would discuss the script together to help the actors understand the script and the characters more deeply.

At first, everyone still had some estrangement, but Bai Xiwen always had a stern face and always looked serious and solemn.

During the screenwriter's meeting, Rong Xu sat next to Bai Xiwen. The venue poured a glass of water and handed it to everyone. Rong Xu directly helped Bai Xiwen take the water. Bai Xiwen was slightly stunned. After a moment, he nodded stiffly and said, "Thank you."

Seeing this, Rong Xu frivolously browsed and the corners of her lips slightly raised.

The screenwriter conference was held all day long, and everyone took out their own scripts, and the screenwriter analyzed the roles one by one to analyze the important plots in the movie. Among them, the two male protagonists naturally had the most scenes. The heroines in this play didn’t have many scenes, almost in the vase role. The focus was on the two male protagonists. The character Tan Yangxuan was mainly responsible for action scenes, while Xue Jiazhe was responsible for literary scenes.

After analyzing Bai Xiwen's role, the screenwriter looked at Rong Xu with the script and said seriously: "The character Xue Jiazhe is considered a semi-anti-social personality. He is not really anti-social. However, because of his childhood experience, he was extremely disgusted with his father who abandoned himself and his mother and ran away alone in the earthquake, and he also hated the parents who abandoned their children."

Rong Xu wore a pair of flat glasses and nodded with a smile: "Well, so his hatred is clear, but he also wandered himself out of sin. He knew that he was committing a crime, but he didn't think he was wrong, so he could kill people with peace of mind and finally blame others."

The screenwriter was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "Yes, he is like this. What you need to pay attention to is Xue Jiazhe's calmness and his strong psychological quality. He is a professor of psychology, so he understands people's hearts very well and is very smart."

The director interrupted, "Next two days later, Rong Xu, the crew has arranged for you a university psychology professor. He will come to the crew to tell you about psychology knowledge and let you understand the requirements in this regard. You can learn from him and guess how to interpret Xue Jiazhe well."

Rong Xu curled the corners of her lips: "Okay, Director Yuan."

Yuan Ke, the director of "The Mysterious City", is a famous first-tier commercial film director in China. The films he directs have one characteristic: the box office is usually not low, the lowest is not less than 500 million, and he wins a Best Director Award every year.

Yes, it’s either the best film, the best actor or the best director!

Whether it is a first-tier award or a second-tier award, Yuan Ke will definitely win one. In the past seven or eight years, it has been storms and rain. Even if any movie award is not held this year, Yuan Ke will definitely win a best director from dozens of movie awards around the world every year. So in the circle, Yuan Ke has another nickname: Director Yuan Award...

This is off topic, so I won't mention it for now.

After the screenwriter conference, all the actors were ready to try makeup and look. The two male protagonists stayed and exchanged in-depth views with Director Yuan.

Rong Xu closed his script gently and analyzed calmly: "It was because of the shadow of childhood that Xue Jiazhe hated his parents who abandoned his children. So after his mother passed away, he began to kill them one by one. He cut off his right hand because when he was young, his father originally extended his right hand to their mother and son, but because he was afraid of aftershocks, his father retracted his right hand, so that the mother and son were pressed under a big stone."

Director Yuan rolled the script into a ball, supported his chin, looked at the boy in front of him with interest, and smiled: "Continue."

"Xue Jiazhe is not a strictly bad guy. He just follows his own words to other patients, his heart is also sick, and he has been sick for many years." A gentle and calm smile appeared on his handsome face, with clear eyes, Rong Xu continued calmly and calmly: "So I think when I interpret him, I will..."

The boy's endless talk made the light of praise in Director Yuan's eyes grow stronger and stronger, and beside Rong Xu, Bai Xiwen's eyes became more and more surprised. When Rong Xu finished speaking and it was Bai Xiwen's turn to analyze again, Bai Xiwen was silent for a long time before he spoke: "I should mainly be the role of fighting scenes, trust my friends, and then solve the case."

Rong Xu was stunned for a moment, but Director Yuan laughed: "I won't force you anymore, Xiao Bai, if you have time, you can learn from Rong Xu, your acting skills may make great progress."

Bai Xiwen nodded honestly. After Director Yuan left, Rong Xu was packing up his things and preparing to try out the shape. Then he heard a faint voice sounding beside him: "...Rong Xu, can you lend me your script?"

Rong Xu was slightly surprised and looked at Bai Xiwen with a smile: "Is there anything wrong?"

Bai Xiwen turned his gaze awkwardly and whispered: "I... don't know how to analyze scripts, I want to borrow your script to see what's going on. If you don't want to, it's okay, please trouble you."

There are really everyone in the entertainment industry. This is the first time Rong Xu has seen such a shy and honest first-line male star.

He looked at Bai Xiwen with deep eyes, and saw that Bai Xiwen lowered his head stiffly and was about to leave. At this moment, he saw Rong Xu stuffing his script directly into his hand. The script was marked with markings, and various thoughts and points of attention were written in beautiful handwriting.

Bai Xiwen was stunned and quickly looked up at Rong Xu. The boy smiled slightly: "Before the computer boot, I have to learn psychology knowledge with the professor. I don't have much time to read the script. You can return this to me after the computer boots up. You said you're bothering me, so how can I not let you trouble you?"

Bai Xiwen nodded quickly: "Thank you! I will definitely give it back to you after I turn it on, and it will definitely be intact! Thank you so much."

"Nothing, no thanks." After a pause, the boy added with a smile: "By the way, I like coffee, and the latte is good."

Bai Xiwen was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized. So half an hour later, Rong Xu was putting on makeup, and Bai Xiwen's assistant brought him a cup of coffee. Although it was not a latte, it was a mocha with extremely similar taste.

It is best not to owe everyone favors in the circle. Rong Xu deliberately used this method to make Bai Xiwen return his favors, which is also very good for the other party.

The assistant seemed to be as shy as his own artist. He lowered his head and whispered to Rong Xu: "Thank you really, Rong Rong... can you sign me?"

Rong Xu took the other party's paper and pen and said softly: "Of course."

The little assistant immediately nodded excitedly.

The crew of "Mysterious City" has gathered most of the main creators, and only the heroine has not yet joined the group. She is participating in a singing program abroad. All the staff are preparing for the filming of the movie wholeheartedly.

Luo Zhentao was still in the crew on the first day. Looking at such a busy and lively scene, he couldn't help but sigh: "In general, Xiao Xu, among the crew you have participated in, it's a bit awkward to the crew of "Ambushes".

Rong Xu didn't agree, he glanced at the dedicated and serious crew members: "Well, everyone is pretty good." After a pause, he added with a smile: "Bai Xiwen is a very interesting person."

Luo Zhentao was stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at the young actor who was working hard to study Rong Xu's script, and then sighed in agreement: "Yes, such a serious and diligent actor is rare in the circle. I remember when you were filming "Black Clouds", did Xiaoxu and Qin Cheng rarely read scripts? He seemed to have a very good memory and memorized all the lines?"

It seemed that he didn't expect his agent to mention Qin Cheng's name. After a moment of being stunned, Rong Xu recalled the scene of studying the script with the man a few days ago, and smiled and said softly: "Yes, Qin Cheng is a very talented person, he is a natural actor. But I don't hate hard-working people like Bai Xiwen, who are working hard, is very valuable."

City B, Capital Airport.

A cold and upright man was about to board the plane when he suddenly sneezes.

Xu Jin turned around and said gloatingly: "Have you caught a cold? You have to wear so little. I have said that there has been a cold wave these days. When you participate in the Golden Phoenix Award, you should wear another bottomed shirt in your dress. You don't listen yet. Now you're fine. Have a cold. Be kind and don't be warm. No one in your family has participated in the Golden Phoenix Award. Do you think he will watch your live TV broadcast?"

Qin Cheng raised his eyes and glanced at him, and asked in a indifferent tone: "Are you happy I have a cold?"

Xu Jin spread his hands: "I didn't say that."

Qin Cheng curled his lips: "Oh, I have a cold, the progress of the movie will be delayed. When you arrive in the United States, you can chat with Director Liu. Maybe he will have something to say to you."

Xu Jin: “…”

"You must not catch a cold! After the progress is delayed, Director Liu will definitely fight me!!!"

The roar of the gold medal agent gradually disappeared into the clouds, the plane flew steadily into the sky, and soon disappeared into the clear blue sky.

Three days later, the heroine officially joined the crew, and the crew of "Missy" came to hold a start-up ceremony.

The author has something to say: Fuwa: Qin Chengcheng, no matter how introverted you are, be careful that Rongrong's heart will be taken away by others!

Qin Chengcheng: Rongrong only loves the baby alone, who is better than the baby hum╭(╯^╰)╮

Rongrong: Bai Xiwen is pretty good, hardworking and serious, and so shy.
