Chapter 580 Chapter 581 [Fight the local tyrants and divide the fields]
?In January 1999, the album "Free Like the Wind" was a hit, giving Xiang Nan a good start at the beginning of the new year.
By the end of January, it was a double blessing.
He officially received a call from the crew of "My Father and Mother". He was selected to star in the film and was informed that he would report to the crew in mid-February.
Xiang Nan was quite excited after receiving the call.
Collaborating with director Zhang Yimou is a very good opportunity for a newcomer like him.
“Who is the heroine, Miao Pu?” Xiang Nan asked again curiously.
“No, it’s Zhang Ziyi, a student of the 1996th class of China National Drama.” Assistant director Li Hong explained, “Although Miao Pu is also very good, Director Zhang believes that Zhang Ziyi is more suitable.”
Xiang Nan nodded.
Director Zhang is a top director in the world. He must have his own considerations when selecting actors.
?Miao Pu lost to Zhang Ziyi, not necessarily because she is not good, but just not as suitable as her.
…
Xiang Nan then went to the hospital to ask for leave.
When he learned that he was going to star in Director Zhang''s film, the theater gave him the green light and opened the door to him.
Hang Nan’s popularity has soared and he is now one of the most popular stars in Beijing Film Academy. This has greatly enhanced Beijing Film’s popularity and influence.
You know, after the establishment of Beijing Film Studio, it has been suppressed by the Chinese drama industry and has been the second child for decades. It wasn''t until 1997, when student Zhao Wei starred in "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" that became a national hit, that the number of applicants for Beijing Film Academy surpassed that of China National Theater for the first time.
Today, although Xiang Nan''s popularity across the country is still not much higher than that of Zhao Wei, among young people, their popularity is about the same.
??This year''s college entrance examination, there will be a lot of people rushing to apply for Beijing Film Academy. It can be said that Xiang Nan is now the face of Beiying, so he can naturally enjoy some preferential treatment.
Secondly, Zhang Yimou is the top director in mainland China. He has a high reputation in the international film industry and has won many awards and recognition from his peers.
It is an honor for Xiang Nan to cooperate with him, and it is also an honor for Beiying. Parents all over the world like to be teachers, and they naturally want their students to do well.
“Yuan Hua, you must perform well and don’t bring shame to the school.” The vice president encouraged with a smile.
“Yes, I promise to complete the task.” Xiang Nan said solemnly.
…
After asking for leave, Xiang Nan began to pack his luggage and prepare to set off.
The news that Xiang Nan was fortunate enough to be selected by Zhang Yimou and was about to star in his new film soon became like a bird with wings, flying all over the campus, and was coveted by countless classmates.
“Yuan Hua, have you received the notice from the crew of "My Father and Mother"?" Miao Pu called Xiang Nandao specifically.
“Yes, I received it yesterday.” Xiang Nan nodded.
"Then...I..." Miao Pu became nervous.
Xiang Nan received a call yesterday. Why is there no news from her? She didn''t dare to think about it, but she couldn''t help but think about it.
"I''ve asked for you, and the heroine must be Zhang Ziyi, a student of the 1996th National Theater Academy of China." Xiang Nan knew what she wanted to ask and told her simply.
Miao Pu was greatly disappointed when he heard this.
“Okay, I understand.” She whispered, “By the way, I haven’t congratulated you yet. I wish you a great success in your new crew!”
“Thank you.” Xiang Nan nodded.
“Lao Yuan, you have such a great opportunity, you have to treat me, right?” Zhou Le said with a smile.
"That''s right! We can''t cooperate with Director Zhang anymore. All we can do is make you a meal of boiled mutton." Li Bo also said with a smile.
“What are you talking about? Let’s go!” Xiang Nan readily agreed, “Call the whole class and I’ll treat you~”
??Everyone cheered immediately, and then gathered their friends and headed to the shabu-shabu restaurant outside the school.
…
“You’re welcome, whatever you want, today is all mine.” Xiang Nan said with a smile.
Everyone has a bad side. Many people are angry at others, laugh at others, and don''t think others are better than themselves. Xiang Nan was already quite jealous, but this time he was able to cooperate with Director Zhang, and I don’t know how many people were made red-eyed.
?Ouyang Feng, a well-known biologist, toxicologist, and martial arts master in the Southern Song Dynasty, once said that anyone can become vicious as long as you try to be jealous.
University is not the Garden of Eden or the ivory tower. There are no less intrigues and intrigues here than in society.
Xiang Nan didn''t want to make enemies and put himself in trouble. After all, it was easy to hide from open guns and hard to defend against hidden arrows. That''s why he held a banquet for guests to appease his classmates.
In fact, most people are good people. Jealousy is just a temporary emotion, and it will be fine if you calm it down.
“I didn’t say anything, I have to give you a good beating today~”
“You’ve already played the leading role of Director Zhang, and you don’t want the brothers to eat you up!”
“Fight the local tyrants and divide the land!”
The classmates all cheered.
Xiang Nan noticed that Miao Pu also came, but his mood was a little depressed, his eyebrows were lowered, and he was a little depressed.
Xiang Nan can understand.
If it were me, I wouldn''t be happy either.
…
Soon the copper pot, mutton, dipping sauce, and beer were all served, and everyone started eating and drinking, shouting and making a mess.
“Hey, I suggest that we all raise a glass together to congratulate Yuan Hua Queping High School for cooperating with director Zhang Yimou!” Class monitor Han Xiao raised his glass.
When everyone heard this, they responded one after another.
“Thank you everyone, I’ll do it!” Xiang Nan raised his glass and drank a full glass.
“Okay!” The students couldn’t help but clapped their hands when they saw how heroic he was.
"The second glass of wine is for classmate Yuan Hua." Han Xiao smiled again and said, "Yuan Hua, you are now the most famous person in our class. As the saying goes, if one person achieves enlightenment, chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven. You will be much better in the future. Take care of our classmates.”
“Yes, Yuan Shuai, for the sake of the party and the country, please give me a hand~” Yu Bin cheered. When the students heard this, they all burst into laughter.
“I didn’t say anything.” Xiang Nan agreed, “Don’t they all say that the four pillars of life have passed through the window together, carried the gun together, drifted through the rough and tumble together, and shared the dirt together.
We won’t mention the last three. We are classmates and have the strongest friendship. I will never forget you even when I become rich. I swear to the lamp, if the lamp goes out, I will put it out! "
Seeing him speak so boldly, the classmates all cheered again.
"The third glass of wine, I propose to toast to everyone." Han Xiao said with a smile, "I wish you all will become famous and gain both fame and fortune in the future!"
?Everyone burst into laughter.
…
After toasting, everyone starts eating.
?Eating shabu-shabu hot pot in winter is really a great enjoyment.
Everyone had a great time eating, and mutton, dipping sauces, and beer were kept being served.
At this moment, Miao Pu suddenly lay on the table and cried bitterly.
Everyone could not help but be stunned when they saw it.
“Miao Pu also auditioned for the cast of My Father and Mother. Director Zhang liked her very much, but she didn’t expect to be chosen in the end.” A classmate who knew the inside story explained.
After hearing what she said, everyone understood and couldn''t help but sigh.
?This kind of thing is very common in the entertainment industry. But we went to interview with the same crew, and one got the job and the other didn''t. It''s really a bit embarrassing for the one who didn''t win to celebrate the one who won.
"Everyone, keep eating, I''ll take her down for a walk." Xiang Nan stood up and said.
Everyone nodded.
Since the matter started because of him, it is only fitting that he should resolve it.
