Chapter 191 Maybe we can play acupuncture game next time
"Director Sun, you're absolutely right. With such a strong cast, only Zhou Le or Zhang Ruoyun can keep up. If you asked me to play Fan Xian now, I would definitely not go. Unless we just shoot this drama as it is, but we absolutely cannot have veteran actors like Teacher Chen Daomin on the show.

Otherwise, I would be really embarrassed to act, after all, my acting skills are really not good enough right now."

Sun Hao looked at Guo Qiling and smiled. "Qiling, don't think that way. You're still influenced by your previous identity, so everyone thinks you're a comedian. Once you shake off that label, you'll definitely go far."

"Alas, the prejudice in people's hearts is as huge as a mountain. It's not so easy to remove the label. I just want to gain some fame first."

"Correct."

The first reason Xiao Zhan came here to film was to increase his exposure, and the second reason was to meet some people, such as Chen Daomin.

As for the idol mentioned before, being Chen Daomin, no one actually took it to heart.

How could someone who has never thought about working hard on his acting skills regard Chen Daomin as his idol?
"Isn't this funny?"

Chen Daomin also knew the situation clearly. If Zhou Le hadn't been there, he might have chatted with the young man for a few more minutes, but now it was obvious that Zhou Le was better.

Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away.

Especially when Chen Daomin accidentally saw the dark history of Xiao Zhan that Guo Qiling and Meng Ziyi saw when they searched for him online.

This is even more impossible to compare.

After Xiao Zhan left, the crew also began to prepare to move.

Their next stop is Yunnan.

The most important shot here is the rapeseed field in Luoping, Qujing, which is also the largest rapeseed field in the world.

This season is just in time for the last blooming period.

The most important scene in this sea of rapeseed flowers is the emotional scene between Fan Xian and Lin Wan'er, because this is the eve of Fan Xian's trip to Northern Qi.

The two are about to part.

A pair of people who love each other confide their true feelings to each other.

In today's terms, it's called dating.

"You two must really bring out that feeling. Fan Xian, you have to be bold, since you've always been in the driver's seat. And Li Yan, you have to be both bold and shy at the same time.

We shot this sequence in three parts, but the most important ones were the kissing scenes in the second and third parts. My idea was to shoot these scenes in one take, avoiding cuts if possible.”

"Okay, Director Sun, let's give it a try."

Because of their previous relationship, Zhou Le was more relaxed and in a very relaxed manner during the performance.

Li Wei's characteristic is that she can get into the role quickly, so she completely immersed herself in the role. Coupled with the feelings in her heart, her performance during the role was perfect.

"Great, this is exactly the feeling I wanted. You two are truly amazing. Your performance just now was outstanding. But let's keep one more."

As a director, Sun Hao could actually feel the changes in the two people when they were acting together, but he had seen this kind of thing too many times, so he didn't say it out loud, and just kept it in his heart.

In fact, before filming began, he was worried that their kissing scenes would not be acceptable. Although it was fun for the crew, he still wanted the show to be aired this year, so he had to save as much time as possible in the early stages.

After the filming is completed, he still has to supervise the post-production work.

The second shot went just as smoothly.

After that, the shooting was much simpler.

Finally, the crew finished filming in Yunnan.

"Congratulations on finishing!"

“Thank you for your hard work, director.”

"Thank you for your hard work, screenwriter."

Everyone congratulated each other.

The completion of a play means that after several months of hard filming, the play has finally come to an end.

In the entire crew, except for Zhou Le who left for a few days every now and then, everyone else basically stayed in the crew all the time.

Once the filming is completed, the end of the trouble will come.

Now "Joy of Life" is the project that Tencent Pictures attaches the most importance to. As long as there are no major problems with the subsequent leading actors, Tencent will push this drama to be a hit no matter how hard it tries.

At that time, these young actors in the crew will definitely be given many opportunities to appear on variety shows.

Zhou Le has also talked with senior executives from Tencent Pictures. Given Guo Qiling's personality, he can appear on more lifestyle programs in the future.

In addition, the Tucao Conference and the subsequent talk show conference will also push Guo Qiling up further.

After all, Guo Qiling and Zhou Le are different. Zhou Le's network of contacts mainly relies on his familiarity with those directors, but Guo Qiling has the entire Deyun Club behind him.

They are born with resources.

After the show is broadcast, Deyun Club will definitely contribute in terms of marketing and traffic.

So after the wrap-up party, Zhou Le strolled over to Guo Qiling.

"Qi Ling, I know you still want to develop in the acting circle, but your personality is also particularly suitable for variety shows, so I will find a lot of variety shows for you to participate in, such as Happy Camp, Ace vs. Ace, Longing for Life, etc. We all have some resources.

Also, I got the news that the contracts of many people on Running Man have expired. When the time comes, I will find someone to arrange for you to be a permanent guest. In addition, I will also find some more educational and life variety shows for you.

We'll take advantage of the popularity of "Joy of Life" and use variety shows to expose you first. Tencent will continue to develop "The Son-in-Law" later, and I'll try to communicate more with Tencent to get you a major role. Also, if there are other movies or TV series that are suitable for you, I'll help you get them, so that you can achieve success in both film and television and variety shows."

"I understand, brother. I'm not afraid of hardship. Brother, I'm so touched that you can take care of me like this. If you need me for anything later, just let me know."

"It's okay, we're all family, there's no need to argue. Counting Zheng Ge and me, there are only three male artists here, and our paths are quite different from yours, so there's no competition between us. I'll definitely promote you whenever I can.

When the time comes, we two brothers will make a name for ourselves in the entertainment industry together. When the time is right, you can start your own business. After all, you can't work for me forever. After all, you are the prince of Deyun Club."

"Hey, what kind of prince am I? If that were the case, I wouldn't come out. But brother, to be honest, I really want to work for you for the rest of my life."

"Don't think like that. I can't say much about what happened in Deyun Club, but after you get out, you will always be different from others. So many people are watching you. If you can make a career for yourself, people will look up to you."

Guo Qiling thought for a moment and said, "Brother, what do you think I should do? I don't have much experience in business."

"If you want to make money and want stability, being an MCN agency is actually the most suitable. On the one hand, we have such resources, and on the other hand, several video platforms have been established now, and now is the right time to go."

"MCN is for signing influencers, right?"

"Yes, signing contracts and training are actually similar to the agencies behind actors and singers, except that the market is more down-to-earth. But it's not that absolute. Look, isn't Taiyang Chuanhe founded by artists and internet celebrities, some capital in the circle, and senior internet practitioners?

Many internet celebrities want to move into the entertainment industry. We can find some suitable people to join us, including former celebrities who have already moved on. We can also let them develop into internet celebrities. After all, they can make money and it's not shabby."

"That makes sense. I'll think about it carefully. I think we should either not do this or do it sooner rather than later. The later we wait, the smaller the cake will be."

"Yes, let's study it."

After the end of "Joy of Life", it also means that the final payment of my salary will be received in a few days.

Zhou Le really planned to save this money for emergencies.

After returning to Yanjing, Zhou Le immediately went to participate in the Beijing University Student Film Festival, where he won the Best Actor Award for his role in "Dying to Survive".

At the same time, "The Wandering Earth" once again won the Best Picture Award.

The next day, Ning Hao took him to have another meal with Jia Zhangke alone.

As I said, there are very few people who can make a name for themselves in Shanxi.

It just so happens that we are all in the same circle, so we should help each other if we can. Now Jia Zhangke and Ning Hao still have a say, and when Zhou Le becomes successful, he will be the new generation's successor, and then he will lead the newer generation to move forward.

"Brothers, please don't say that. I still have to follow you guys."

"Haha, you don't have to be so modest. We've known each other for so long, and I still don't know who you are. It's okay to be modest in front of outsiders, but in front of your own people, there's no need to say those nonsense.

You are still so young, if you should move up, then move up as much as possible. We are now also considering the matter of retreating. Anyway, we will carry you up before retreating. But don't forget us after you get up, or you won't even answer the phone when we call you to have dinner. "

"That's absolutely impossible. No matter what time, the eldest brother is the eldest brother." After finishing "Story of Yanxi Palace", Tian Xiwei seamlessly transitioned to the crew of "Little Joy".

Zhou Le went over to take a look.

I happened to meet Tian Xiwei, Tao Hong and Sha Yi discussing the script.

In the play, the three of them are a family, except that Qiao Weidong, played by Sha Yi, and Song Qian, played by Tao Hong, are divorced.

"Inza, open the door, daddy."

Everyone laughed after Sha Yi finished his lines.

Tao Hong was just about to say something when she saw Zhou Le from a distance.

Although Tao Hong and Zhou Le had not met each other many times, she knew that her husband Xu Zheng and Zhou Le had a very close relationship.

We attended a film festival together a few days ago.

"Hey, Le'er is here, come here quickly."

Tao Hong was very enthusiastic, and Zhou Le walked over with a smile.

"I'm sorry if I came over so suddenly and disturbed everyone from reading the script."

"It's really not the right time. I'm just asking Ying to break the door down." Sha Yi and Zhou Le had never met before, but both of them had been on Go Fighting!

But after the two of them went up, their reputations were completely the opposite.

After Sha Yi appeared on the show, Kua Cha Zi was almost cheated out of everything. He also said that appearing on such a show made people all over the country doubt his IQ.

But after Zhou Le finished the class, the audience all said that a bad guy needs to be dealt with by another bad guy. Zhou Le did not go to participate in the variety show at all, but went to teach Extreme Men's Gang.

At that time, sand art was also involved and became a hot topic again.

So Sha Yi also knew that Zhou Le was the kind of person who could take a joke and would not let his words fall to the ground.

"Brother Sha Yi, you look a bit dangerous right now. Don't wait until Yingzi opens the door, the security guards will come and carry you to the security office.

"How do you know our script? Did you secretly read it, Xiao Tianer? Did you leak the script before?"

Sha Yi said with a smile again.

"I didn't. Even if it was leaked, it was Director Wang who leaked it. He sent the script directly to Brother Le."

Zhou Le waved his hand: "I'm not acting, so I didn't read the rest of your script. I just know what the first part is about. The rest is just my guess. After all, the role of Bai Zhantang played by you, Sha Yi, was my enlightenment to enter the entertainment industry."

Sha Yi laughed when he heard this: "Don't try that on me. Huang Bo and the others told me when we were having dinner together. If you keep saying this to everyone you meet, you'll be in trouble unless you replicate the Sunflower Acupuncture Finger technique."

Come as you say!

Zhou Le perfectly replicated the movements of the sunflower acupoint-pressing hand on the spot.

He pointed a finger at Tian Xiwei.

"How's it going? Mr. Shayi, I never tell lies."

Just after he finished speaking, Zhou Le took a look at his experience value and saw that it had jumped from 1156 to 1157.

"Okay, I'm glad you still remember those moves. I can't remember them clearly now, but I feel manly now."

No matter how Zhou Le looked at him, he didn't seem to be masculine at all. Instead, he looked a bit like an online game host named Eggplant.

But after chatting for a while, Sha Yi talked about Go Fighting again: "I watched your episode of Go Fighting too. Let's go on it together someday. Then you can team up with me and take me with you to give them a good fight. I still hold a grudge against you."

"Brother Shayi, is it still necessary to go to Go Fighting now? Brother Honglei and Brother Bo haven't gone yet, so if I go again, it would be like bullying them."

"Hahaha, that's true, but there are other similar variety shows. Anyway, next time there's such an opportunity, I will definitely bring you along, and you must team up with me then."

"That's no problem."

At this moment, Tian Xiwei said, "Brother Le, please untie me. I've been pressing the acupoints for so long, and I have to go to film later."

Tao Hong laughed non-stop: "I've discovered that Le'er, you are abstracting yourself and making the people under you abstract as well."

Zhou Le looked at Tian Xiwei who was still sitting there motionless, and used the Sunflower Point-Releasing Hand technique to point at Tian Xiwei.

"Finally it's solved. I finally know what it feels like to be acupunctured."

Even Zhou Le was speechless for a moment.

After a long silence, he could only praise: "Xiaotian, your acting skills are really good now."

"Hehe, of course. Sister Tao Hong and Brother Sha Yi always teach me how to act, and Teacher Huang Lei has also taught me a lot. I think I've made great progress now."

"Indeed."

However, Tian Xiwei quickly thought of some not-so-good aspects, and maybe she could play the acupoint-pressing game next time.

Whoever is acupunctured cannot move.

After visiting Tian Xiwei’s class, Zhou Le went to Hengdian again. The filming of "Youngsters of the Song Dynasty" had just started some time ago.

Normally, he should have gone there when the filming started, but Zhou Le was filming in Yunnan at that time and didn't have time.

But there are no particularly popular actors in the entire "Youngsters of the Song Dynasty". In essence, this is a drama recommended by Mango TV.

But since Meng Ziyi is very popular now, she was chosen after the audition.

Zhou Ye was chosen simply because of her good acting skills. After seeing the role, she didn't even ask for the second female lead, but the third female lead instead. This way, the director had no reason to refuse.

After Zhou Le arrived, the actors here were all very attentive. After all, Zhou Le is the acting representative of the younger generation. He has won many trophies in more than two years since his debut.

Most of the people here are still following the idol route.

After being surrounded by the crowd and having a few photos taken, Zhou Le was finally able to free himself.

"How do you two feel about being here?"

"I feel pretty good about it. The drama is quite interesting, and the actors are all young people, so we can usually chat with each other." Meng Ziyi said, "But the only thing I feel a little bit sorry about is that Xiao Ye could have played the second female lead, but in the end she played the third female lead."

Zhou Ye smiled and said, "Actually, I can play the second female lead, but I think that role is too boring. It's just weak and cute, and it doesn't seem interesting. It's better than my current role. The background is very complicated, and the death in the end is very meaningful."

"It's really good that Xiao Ye can be open-minded. In a few months, after 'Better Days' is released, the filming here will probably be almost done. You can go back and promote it there. Maybe you can also make a name for yourself with these two works."

"I hope so. Right now I simply feel that I should play some challenging roles."

Zhou Ye said.

Meng Ziyi then hurriedly asked: "What about me?"

"You, you have to play some challenging roles when the time comes. I just worked with Xiao Zhan a while ago, and that was really hopeless. Or you have a blank expression and just glare when you're angry. You must not develop in this direction.

You can still attract fans now by relying on your youth and beauty, but what will happen in the future? So whether you are choosing roles or honing your acting skills, you have to follow your previous role as Ye Ling'er in "Joy of Life".

We're all taking different paths in our studio right now. You can take a cue from Huang Xiaoming about your development direction. Occasionally take on an idol drama to let loose, earn some money, increase your exposure, and appear beautifully in front of the camera, but also take on a few roles with depth."

"it is good."

Zhou Le stayed here at noon, and saw Meng Ziyi and Zhou Ye were very happy because Zhou Le came to visit them, so one of them treated everyone to milk tea, and the other bought a cart of watermelons.

"Ah, the little rich woman's way of winning people over is so simple and direct."

But Zhou Le came over just to take a look at the situation. He felt relieved to see that their filming went smoothly and they were not bullied on the crew.

But just as he finished his work here and was about to return to the Shenzhen racing team the next day to practice driving for a few more days to get a feel for his driving, he suddenly received a call from Wu Jing, saying that the Film Association was going to start recruiting people.

"Le'er, come back no matter what. The number of places this year is limited and many people are eyeing it. If you don't come, the spot will definitely be gone."
