Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 306: The Beginning

On the first day of the second month of the lunar calendar, the long-awaited opening ceremony of "The Beginning" was held.

Offering incense on a pig's head is the standard Hong Kong-style startup procedure and has almost become a common practice in the industry.

However, Xu Qiuyue's tone was much higher than Liu Wei's at the beginning. Not only did she invite a large number of entertainment reporters and self-media people, but she also delivered a long "speech" at the opening ceremony.

All kinds of empty talk came out of his mouth, which made Zhou Hao frown.

This female director's work style is really exaggerated.

But there is no doubt that entertainment reporters and self-media people like this style the most. They don’t even need to scratch their heads to think of a title. Just putting Director Xu’s words there verbatim is already explosive enough!
"The Beginning vows to continue the glory of Day and Night and become a new benchmark for online dramas!"

"The director made a bold statement, "Beginning" will shock everyone again!"

"It went viral before filming, and <Beginning> set a new record for the purchase price of online dramas!"

"With frequent excellent works, Shanhai Films vows to become the leader in streaming media film and television!"

…………

After the opening ceremony, the main actors were immediately surrounded by reporters. Zhou Hao was naturally not spared. All kinds of microphones and recorders were almost poking into his nostrils.

"Zhou Hao, this is your first time playing the leading male role. What do you think?"

"Zhou Hao, may I ask why you quit your job and entered the entertainment industry?"

"Zhou Hao, what is your relationship with Lin Xina?"

"Zhou Hao..."

At first the questions were fairly serious, all related to the work "The Beginning" itself, but later on the questions started to become more and more off-topic, heading towards gossip.

After saying a few perfunctory words, Zhou Hao hurriedly left under the cover of his assistant Xiao Tuji.

But the more perfunctory he was, the happier the reporters became.

If the parties involved do not deny it, isn't that tantamount to consent? This actually gives them room to play around!
There will be something easier to write about later!
Lin Xina, the other protagonist of the scandal, was not much better. When she saw Zhou Hao, she kept shaking her head in frustration.

But there's nothing she can do, this is the path she chose herself, and she can't complain even if she wants to.

When I arrived at the lounge, I saw Cao Xing working on the script very seriously.

Originally Zhou Hao was a little worried that the scandal between him and Lin Xina was spreading everywhere, and this guy might be unhappy. Unexpectedly, this guy was not affected at all.

I don't know if he has really let it go, or is just holding back to grow...

"Brother." Seeing Zhou Hao appear, Cao Xing immediately stood up with a respectful look on his face.

"Here we go again." Zhou Hao frowned, "Sit down, I don't like this, let's be more casual in the future."

"Okay." Cao Xing scratched his head, smiled awkwardly and sat down.

"Have you finished reading the script?"

"I finished reading it a long time ago. I've been pondering the details."

"Don't you think your role is too small?" Zhou Hao asked with a smile.

"That's not possible." Cao Xing shook his head immediately. "My master told me that for a real actor, there is no distinction between big and small roles. As long as you play the role well, a small role can also be outstanding."

The master he was referring to was Guo Chen.

With the help of Zhou Hao, he successfully became Guo Chen's closed disciple.

This matter has not been publicized, and only a few relatives and friends know about it.

Cao Xing looked like a nondescript person, but he was quite serious about learning skills from his master. No matter what Guo Chen said, he copied it all without any questioning.

Guo Chen did not give in to his teachings, and he was slowly improving his apprentice's foundation from scratch. He had to improve his voice, stage, and performance step by step, and it would probably take him three to five years to become a master.

This time, "Beginning" is a very good acceptance opportunity for Cao Xing, and it is a periodic inspection of learning results.

"Your master is right. There is no big or small role." Zhou Hao said with emotion: "Be patient. After you have a solid foundation, you will have a stage to perform."

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing immediately became excited, "Got it, brother!"

Zhou Hao smiled and patted his shoulder. "Let your agent talk to Sister Hong later and get your contract finalized as soon as possible."

"Okay!" Cao Xing nodded vigorously, and the last stone in his heart fell to the ground.

As long as you enter Jinghong Studio, you are really in the same boat. Why would you worry about not having any movies to shoot in the future?

Just wait to be taken away!

An hour later, the leading actors walked out of the dressing room one after another.

Zhou Hao changed into an ordinary pair of jeans and a plaid shirt, put on a pair of gentle wide-rimmed glasses, and did not deliberately put on any makeup. At first glance, he looked like an authentic "working man".

Although director Xu Qiuyue didn't like this kind of "down-to-earth" makeup, she had no choice but to accept it at this point.

On the contrary, the two "foreign players" from the drama theater nodded secretly in approval when they saw Zhou Hao's look.

This is what a normal worker looks like. Which programmer would put on makeup at work?
Apart from anything else, his attitude towards the role is more professional than that of many professional actors!

Then, the appearance of the heroine Lin Xina also made everyone's eyes light up.

She changed out of her policewoman outfit of leather jacket and jeans and put on a navy blue shirt with casual pants and a pair of white sneakers. With her refreshing short hair and a face full of pure collagen, a youthful atmosphere came over her.

That pretty face, which outshines all other young actresses of the same age, had just the right amount of light makeup on, and the makeup even had a hasty and casual feel.

She had a white linen bag on her shoulder with a cute doll pendant hanging on it. The bells jingled softly when she walked, which was very pleasant to the ear.

Just by looking at this image and standing there, there is no need for any subtitles or narration, you can tell at a glance that he is a college student.

The most amazing one was Yang Weihong, who changed into a floral dress and dragged a snakeskin bag. Her every move looked like that of a peasant woman...

In just a few days, she was able to accurately interpret the role's requirements as per the script.

Even though Director Xu Qiuyue didn't like this drama master of great status, she couldn't help but secretly praise him in her heart: His acting skills are really amazing!

Ten minutes later, everyone boarded the bus and found their seats and sat down.

And suppose that several cameras in the bus are also undergoing final debugging.

At 10:08 am, Xu Qiuyue, who was sitting in the director's seat, raised the walkie-talkie.

The script manager on the bus held up the clapperboard high.

"Irrelevant personnel please leave the stage, actors please take your seats!"

"The first scene of "The Beginning", the first line, begins!"

Snapped!
As the board sounded, the bus compartment, which had been holding its breath, seemed to thaw instantly and start to come alive.

When the camera focused, Lin Xina, who had her eyes closed, suddenly opened them and looked at Zhou Hao with horror.

"CUT!" Xu Qiuyue's voice came from the intercom, "The look in your eyes, that's wrong! There's no sense of fear at all, it's so soft! Do it again!"

Lin Xina stuck out her tongue and sighed softly.

Turn on the camera and grind the lens. It will take a long time to torture again...
