Chapter 259: Unity of Knowledge and Action, Shen Santong's Explosive Confidence (13)

The reason I asked Tong Liya out was not to make friends, but for work purposes.

He is a serious person.

Starting from the end of November last year, Tong Liya and Wang Zhi were selected to play Xiao Qiao and Sun Shangxiang.

Shen Santong trained the two of them, with Tong Liya being the top priority.

Over eight or nine months, she was trained, sculpted, and whitened. Over a million dollars was spent on her, far more than her pay for a film.

Shen Santong often asked about the training situation and personally came out to assess it from time to time.

Gradually get to know each other.

Because of their similar age and Tong Liya's willingness to please him, their relationship quickly became closer.

However, Shen Santong is a person who clearly distinguishes between public and private affairs.

I was in a state of self-cultivation at the time, so I just chatted a little.

There was some physical contact, but no friendship was established.

Now things change.

Because when it comes to personal problems, blocking therapy has repeatedly failed.

So Shen Santong decided to adopt the dredging therapy.

As the old saying goes, knowledge and action should be unified.

Of course, his cognition is very high, he cultivates his character, and his self-awareness is very high.

But in terms of behavior, I always can’t keep up.

Shen Santong did some thinking and decided to take a step back.

Lower your cognition, lower your high cognition, and align it with your own actions.

After re-achieving the unity of knowledge and action, we can then gradually improve our behavior and cognition to reach the ultimate state.

To put it bluntly, it’s better to think about abstaining from sex but not be able to do it.

It would be better to admit that you are a lustful person first.

In actual action, it is not about complete relaxation, but about reducing quantity and improving quality.

Don’t be nostalgic about the past, cut off what should be cut off.

Make new friends at a high level.

perfect!

Shen Santong grabbed Tong Liya's hand and breathed a sigh of relief, "Yaya's rolls are so delicious, I couldn't help it and accidentally bit your finger."

Tong Liya said shyly: "It's not careless, you all."

I'm sorry to continue, it's too embarrassing.

Shen Santong, who lowered his self-requirements, generously admitted: "I just sucked my fingers subconsciously. By the way, did you wash your hands?"

Tong Liya was embarrassed and annoyed, and stuffed the burrito into his mouth; "Hey! Stop talking, eat your roast duck!"

Shen Santong stared at her and said, "I still want to eat duck."

Tong Liya's face was like a branding iron. She pretended not to understand and was busy rolling the pancake: "You want to eat, I'll roll it for you."

Shen Santong said: "It's not this duck, it's that duck."

Tong Liya lowered her voice and said, "We can't eat here."

Shen Santong grabbed the roasted duck leg and asked in confusion, "Duck, it's right here. If we don't eat it here, where else can we eat it? It won't taste good if it gets cold."

He looked at Tong Liya suspiciously: "I'm talking about this duck, why are you embarrassed?"

Tong Liya was so angry: "Can you please stop teasing me? How dare you, a big director, bully a small actor like me?"

Shen Santong retorted: "Someone is one year older than me, and he's still calling me Brother Shen. Who's teasing me?"

Tong Liya wanted to kick this man to death: "Then I will call you brother from now on, okay? I will be your sister from now on?"

Shen Santong changed the subject: "Let me check the goods. How have you been practicing recently?"

Tong Liya was unhappy: "Can you please speak more seriously? What do you mean by inspecting the goods? I am not a commodity."

Shen Santong asked: "How much do you weigh this month? Has it reached 95 kilograms?"

Tong Liya was overwhelmed when she heard about the weight gain: "I won't look photogenic when I'm fat."

Shen Santong held Tong Liya in his arms and taught her a lesson: "Are you the director or am I the director? You need to exercise to shape your body, not rely on not eating."

After checking Tong Liya's weight, he said with great dissatisfaction, "It's probably still 90 kilograms, or 91 kilograms at most."

Tong Liya was hugged, her whole body felt stiff and hot.

I feel that Shen Santong was a bit aggressive today.

But she didn't want to gain weight again and firmly refused: "I gained weight from 78 catties to 91 kg, a gain of 13 catties. I can't gain any more weight."

This man always makes her gain weight.

He is only 1.64 meters tall but weighs more than 90 kilograms, which is very overweight.

The teacher repeatedly emphasized that you should look ten pounds heavier when you are on camera.

The movie lens will add another ten kilograms, which makes it one hundred and ten kilograms.

Of course, I just became familiar with Shen Santong.

After more than half a year of contact, I found Shen Santong to be easy to talk to, funny, considerate and handsome.

If it was in the early days, she would definitely increase it to whatever amount she said.

Now it's all about bargaining, not weight, but multiple topics, and some physical contact with Shen Santong.

She felt that the two of them were just virgin boyfriend and girlfriend, with a tacit understanding and ambiguity.

She enjoyed the pulling and tugging.

If they were not a boyfriend and girlfriend, why did Shen Santong spend so much time, energy and money on her?

She takes care of fitness, skin care, nutrition, and etiquette, which makes many of her classmates jealous and spread rumors behind her back that she is being kept by someone.

Fortunately, Wang Zhi was also selected, and his classmates could only feel jealous.

She received the same training and development as Wang Zhi, but she was the one who received special treatment, much better than Wang Zhi.

Tong Liya felt that Wang Zhi was just a cover, and Shen Santong obviously had feelings for her.

If she said it was for the sake of the movie, she would never believe it. Shen Santong must have fallen in love at first sight, and he must have been fascinated by her as soon as they met.

It only makes sense to promote her with such a big-budget movie.

Tong Liya took a step back and promised to try harder and eat more.

They hugged each other and were very affectionate while finishing their meal.

Tong Liya said: "I learned a dance, can you help me see how I'm doing?"

Shen Santong felt bitter and the corners of his mouth curled up.

His will was put to the test again: "This is not convenient either, come to my place."

On the road.

Tong Liya saw him flipping through the script, which was filled with dense writing. She waited for him to stop writing and asked curiously, "Is this a script?"

Shen Santong closed it and said, "No, this is just the outline of the script. The official script can't be placed here."

Tong Liya estimated that the notebook in Shen Santong's hand was very thick, and asked in surprise: "It's so thick and it's just the outline?"

Shen Santong said as a matter of course: "The Battle of Red Cliffs has many characters, and the amount of information itself is very large. The causes and consequences of the Battle of Red Cliffs, if summarized roughly, contain more than 100,000 words."

Tong Liya shook his arm, stared at him with bright eyes and said, "You are really amazing, much better than that internationally renowned director Wu Yusen."

Shen Santong was very pleased and gave him the highest emotional value: "You have good vision, he and I are not comparable, all I have to do is surpass myself."

After learning that Wu Yusen was still a money-grubber and his movies were not pure, Shen Santong realized that the plot of Wu Yusen's "Red Cliff" would at most be slightly different from his previous life.

The level is definitely not high.

The original version of "Red Cliff" turned a thrilling and epic battle with many heroes into a parallel world war with deep love and rain and weak opponents fighting each other.

As long as he shoots "Red Cliff" step by step, it is inevitable that he will beat Wu Yusen and it is also inevitable that he will be the leading costume blockbuster of this era.

The movie that is comparable to it is Wu Yusen's version of "Red Cliff".

The other category is the current costume blockbusters "Seven Swords", "The Promise", "The Banquet", "House of Flying Daggers" and "A City Full of Big Breasted Girls".

At most, we can add some so-called big productions like "A Chinese Odyssey: Part One".

A bunch of monsters.

Sometimes, Shen Santong has to constantly remind himself not to slack off, because just taking some casual photos, as long as they are not too outrageous, will be enough to beat this era.

Invincible, but too lonely.

Tong Liya couldn't be fooled by Shen Santong. Shen Santong was confident from the bottom of his heart, too confident, and didn't take Wu Yusen seriously at all.

Wu Yusen is an internationally renowned director.

But compared with her boyfriend, she supports Shen Santong.

She thought that what she said was a little exaggerated and a little bit conscienceless.

Arrived at the residence.

Shen Santong has Hanfu here, and Tong Liya changed her clothes.

dancing.

So beautiful.

good looking.

Shen Santong faced his inner self directly, without any psychological burden, and enjoyed it.

Another movie together in the home theater.

In a blink of an eye, Tong Liya was surprised to find: "Oh, it's dark."

Shen Santong felt that something exciting would happen tonight.

Tong Liya obviously used her acting skills, and she is still very green.

Shen Santong invited, "Let's eat together. The kitchen is ready."

Tong Liya also sensed what was going to happen, and pretended to be passive for a while: "I'm just going to have a meal, and I have to go back early."

After dinner, they took a stroll together. Shen Santong looked at the time and said in annoyance, "Ah, it's almost nine o'clock and it's raining outside. Don't go back if there's no one at home. I have an empty room here."

Tong Liya was preparing for "Red Cliff", so she didn't go home during the summer vacation and rented a house outside.

Tong Liya looked outside, the rain was falling drop by drop, she complained in her heart but couldn't find a better excuse: "Then I will have a room by myself, you are not allowed to come over."

After taking a shower.

Shen Santong knocked on the door and said, "Ya Ya, I got something good, let's take a look together."

Tong Liya also took a shower. At this point, they both knew what was going on and they just needed an excuse.

Shen Santong opened the door and took aim.

Tong Liya was very flexible, covering her face, remembering that they had not confirmed their relationship: "What is our relationship? Will you only love me?"

Shen Santong said without hesitation: "I only love you."

The decision to be honest was made when I was cultivating my character.

Now I have decided to face myself, so the honest decision I made then is not binding at the moment.

It's raining outside the window.

Dark clouds gathered and brewed.

When the air becomes humid, it will rain heavily.

The rain rolled and hit the ground heavily with the force of thunder.

It's not just the weather that has changed. The competition for roles in "Red Cliff" in the entertainment industry has also caused a stir.

From domestic entertainment to Hong Kong and Taiwan, all are working hard to create momentum and strive to portray a favorable side for themselves.

This is a spoiler.

But I feel it is necessary to explain it, for fear of affecting everyone.

Lower your cognition and cooperate with low execution. In reality, you must never do this.

It is easy to do good and difficult to do evil. The old saying is true. The result of lowering cognition is not unity of knowledge and action, but a complete collapse. It is very troublesome to clean up again.
