Huayu: Hard fight against Zhang Weiping at the beginning

Chapter 171 Thailand Service Industry
Zhang Chen was watching the playback behind the monitor. Liu Tianxian came up to him and couldn't help but sigh: "It's amazing. I wish I could act so well..."

"Nonsense, if she's not that great, why would I look for her..."

As for the second half, Zhang Chen automatically ignored it.

He really wanted to advise: Sister, acting requires talent. It will be impossible for you to reach this level of acting in your lifetime.

It seems that people with particularly good looks don’t have particularly outstanding acting skills.

This is true both in Hollywood and in China.

Some people say that Xiao Shenyang in later generations is arrogant, but no one says he is bad.

It’s actually the same with Fairy Sister: some people say her acting is not good, but no one says she doesn’t work hard.

But acting skills really have little to do with how hard you work.

When Hu Ge was criticized for his poor acting skills, he went to act in a drama, saying that he wanted to hone his acting skills.

and after?
His acting skills have indeed improved, but the improvement is limited.

This shows that his own talent is limited.

Is it his acting skills that allowed him to become popular again?
of course not.

It’s “Nirvana in Fire” and “The Disguiser”, but it’s not acting.

Who are the talented ones?
Master Zhou is definitely one of them.

People say that she is blessed by God. Although she is not a professional actor, she acts naturally in any role.

She was still a little immature when she sang "The Story of the Palace of Eternal Life", but she had already mastered it by the time of "Li Mi's Conjecture". She is Li Mi and Li Mi is her.

When she plays a role, she can easily grasp the point and make the character come alive instantly.

In addition, Wan Qian is also good. Every drama she acts in is good. What does this prove?
It proves that they performed well.

Wan Qian was already a mainstay of the Shanghai Theatre Academy Drama Club when she was only a sophomore, and was able to perform in the National Theatre's annual drama before she even graduated.

Shanghai Theatre Academy is a performing arts school, so it's remarkable that she can be a mainstay here.

But this person is more willful.

When she graduated, everyone thought she would enter the entertainment industry, but unexpectedly she chose to sing. She probably felt that acting was not difficult anymore and wanted to try a different way of life.

After a day of filming, Zhang Chen called the camera crew and production crew together to discuss the next day's filming. This was not something he learned from Hollywood, but something he had been doing since his first film...

Summarize today's work and go over the content to be filmed tomorrow to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

The reason why some crews keep going over budget has to do with their production plans.

At the beginning of filming, the producer will make a general production list and send it to each department.

But this is just a plan after all, and if it is a plan, there will definitely be times when it cannot keep up with changes.

All shooting plans need to change frequently.

This requires the production team to be fully aware of everything and be able to change plans at any time based on the director's adjustments.

But today, Zhang Chen could clearly feel that everyone was a little absent-minded.

"Okay, that's all for today, everyone go back and rest!"

After talking for more than half an hour, Zhang Chen finally ended the meeting. Everyone dispersed like birds and beasts. Chen Xi also wanted to leave, but was stopped by Zhang Chen.

"Wait a minute..."

"what happened?"

Chen Xi didn't think that Zhang Chen had any ulterior motive in keeping her here. After spending such a long time with him, she had already figured out this guy's aesthetic taste. He either liked long legs or those who were particularly lustful.

This aesthetic sounds very vulgar.

Don't understand? Think about Fan Jiuyi and Sheng Gu, it's almost like this.

As for my type, it's not his type at all.

Even if it was delivered to my door, I probably wouldn't bother to eat it.

"What's wrong with everyone? Why do you all seem to be in a hurry? As soon as I said to adjourn the meeting, they all ran away in the blink of an eye..."

Chen Xi rolled his eyes: "What else can we do? This is Thailand."

Zhang Chen didn't react for a moment, then opened his mouth in surprise, "You mean, they all went..."

"Of course, what else can I do?"

Zhang Chen then remembered that Thailand's service industry is very developed.

Before the pneumonia in my previous life, Thailand was a tourist destination. Bangkok was the most popular tourist destination in Southeast Asia. Chiang Mai was the second largest city in Thailand, so even if there was a gap, it would not be too big.

Many European and American men choose to come here to retire.

Renting a wife has become an industry here, and the consumption is low.

Many Americans don’t have much money, but because of the exchange rate, they become rich immediately after coming to Thailand.

You can rent a young and beautiful wife here for very little money, and she will serve you like a master every day.

They could never enjoy this kind of life in America.

Of course, Chinese people don’t like to play tricks like renting wives, but there are other projects they can try.

There is fun to be had everywhere and the prices are low.

So at that time, many men's wish was to come to Thailand with their good brothers.

The point is that we are good brothers. If you come with your wife and kids, you won't be able to play anything.

It’s more fun to come to Thailand if you come with a group of men.

In later life, Zhang Chen had a good friend who would come to Thailand two or three times a year. He said: The girls here will use their tongues to lick all the grooves on your body clean.

Zhang Chen held his forehead with his hand. He remembered that these guys under him had only arrived three days earlier than him, so how come they all seemed to be familiar with the place.

Chen Xi joked, "In fact, if you can lower your status and get into the crowd, they will definitely be willing to take you along to play."

Zhang Chen quickly shook his head.

It’s okay to play friendly matches with professional players, but if you get hit once, your colorful life will immediately turn black and white.

He is a time traveler, so he can't afford to waste time~
Besides, he has Xu Qing!

In fact, it has become a routine for film crews to seek this kind of service.

In Hengdian and Xiangshan, there are countless massage shops of various kinds.

Especially for Hong Kong's film and television practitioners, their collective voting power was even written into the Hengdian County annals. Can you believe it?

Fortunately, such records of the police will not be made public. If they were made public, I don’t know how many celebrities’ filters would be torn off.

Five days later, Liu Tianxian left the group.

Ten days later, Jiang Wenli also left the group.

"Peacock" was shortlisted for the Best Film at the Berlin Film Festival. Zhang Chen thought that Jiang Wenli was anxious to meet up with Gu Changwei and go to Berlin together.

Later, Chen Xi woke him up: "Do you think they really want to do this for Peacock?"

"if not?"

“Do you know who is representing the Peacock crew in Berlin?”

Zhang Chen subconsciously asked: "Who is it?"

"Gu Changwei and Zhang Jingchu."

"Oh~" Zhang Chen understood immediately.

With these two people together, it’s no wonder that Jiang Wenli didn’t want to stay for even a minute.

She is also afraid of being cheated on.

Speaking of which, Zhang Jingchu is not an ordinary woman. She caused a lot of trouble in her previous life. She had scandals with many directors and was finally banned by the directors' wives.

The Directors' Wives Group is a small group composed of Xu Fan, Jiang Wenli and Chen Hong. Because their husbands are all famous domestic directors, they are given the title of Directors' Wives Group by the media.

Of course there are more than just these three people in the group, there are others, but these three are the main ones.

Zhang Jingchu, who was banned, could not get any roles in China and could only hang out in the Hong Kong circle. It was at that time that she got the role in "The Disciples".

To be fair, her acting skills are good, which is considered good among actresses of the same age.

You can’t make art films if you don’t have good acting skills.

The stories of current art films are generally poorly told, and all depends on the actors' performance.

The actors in these award-winning art films all have good acting skills.

Zhang Jingchu is actually very beautiful when she dresses up, and she has good acting skills. If she has a good agent to help her, her achievements may be able to catch up with the Four Dans and Two Bings.

Unfortunately, I was born at the wrong time.

She was banned by the wives' group, and there was negative information about her everywhere on the Internet. She didn't know how to do public relations, so she gradually became obsolete and we never heard from her again.

The filming of "Accidental Murder" took a total of twenty days, and we returned to China after the filming was completed.

Just in time for the premiere of "Darkness 2".

Dong Jianqiang has made a big move this time, holding the events in four cities: Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu and Shenzhen.

Zhang Chen attended the premiere in Beijing.

The premiere in Beijing was also the largest one.

Stars gathered~
Although the director is not Zhang Chen, everyone regards "Black 2" as Zhang Chen's work.

Ning Hao followed Zhang Chen, his smiling face frozen.

In order to promote the show these days, he almost vomited.

But he still enjoys it and takes a few main creators to fly around the country day and night.

Although "Black 2" is not the first film he directed, it is his first commercial film, and Ning Hao is full of expectations.

There was no red carpet ceremony for the premiere.

In the past, red carpet ceremonies were usually only held at award ceremonies, but in the past two years, many movie premieres have also held such gimmicks.

In fact, it is also to cater to his preferences.

What do artists value most?
Of course it’s exposure.

The red carpet show provides just such a medium.

When celebrities attend your movie premiere, it increases your chances of exposure.

If you can go viral because of something else, there will be unexpected gains.

But Zhang Chen doesn't like it. He thinks the quality of a movie still matters.
