Chapter 58: Mr. Jia Qian!

Zhou Le’s fitness and weight loss plan is related to his future acting opportunities.

So he attaches great importance to it.

Xu Zheng, Ning Hao and others are the most powerful and box office-reliable directors among the current young generation, and their previous successes have also proved their strength.

If I can shine in their films, I might soar to fame like Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang.

What’s more, Zhou Le has an advantage over them: he is more handsome.

Although Zhou Le has not been in the circle for a long time, he has also seen a certain characteristic in some people who have risen from grassroots to the stage of Best Actor.

That means you can take risks.

A cheerful character may win the favor of many people, but most ordinary people cannot see the deeper acting skills of the actor. But as long as he can give it his all and play the small character well, he can be recognized by most people.

After all, to some extent, this is a reflection of the lives of most people.

As for the possibility of losing his appearance and becoming ugly after losing weight, Zhou Le didn't care at all. He used to be exposed to the sun as much as in the middle of the night when he was working on the construction site, so he couldn't be that handsome.

If you want to lose weight, besides getting a serious illness, you have to control your diet.

So, in the following period of time, Zhou Le politely declined all the dinner invitations offered by others. Everyone could understand this move. After all, it is normal to lose or gain weight for a role.

Jump rope and run every day.

Eat only one nutritionally balanced meal a day, but only until you are half full.

The rest can be a cucumber, a tomato or an egg at most.

It really reached a state where I was not starving to death, but not full either.

And with such persistence, the weight is also coming off rapidly.

However, during these few days, Zhou Le received another temporary notice saying that the opening ceremony would be held in Ma'anshan.

Because we chose a church in Huayu Church Square here, but there are not many scenes, we can finish the filming here first to avoid having to drag the family back and forth.

When the day came and they arrived at the Magang Hotel in Ma'anshan, Wen Mu was shocked to see that Zhou Le had prominent cheekbones, a pale face, and looked sick.

"Teacher Zhou, were you like this when you saw Reyiza at the airport more than half a month ago?"

Zhou Le smiled weakly: "Isn't this just for the filming? I lost weight on purpose."

Wen Mu was also a little surprised.

"Then why have you lost so much weight? Could it be that you've gained technology?"

Zhou Le sighed, feeling sad when thinking about his recent experience, but the smile on his face remained sunny: "That's not the case. Technology costs a lot of money, how can I bear it?"

"Hahaha, it turns out that poverty is the primary driver of hard work, which perfectly fits our movie."

Then Zhou Le met the other leading actors.

Needless to say, Xu Zheng had spoken very highly of Zhou Le before. After all, they were both scared during the audition.

Everyone else's acting was not like the character they were acting in, except Zhou Le.

Originally they planned to let Zhou Le go to the hospital to study, but after watching Zhou Le's performance, they immediately gave up the idea.

Later he met the other leading actors.

"Add money!"

When Zhou Le saw Zhou Yiwei, his eyes immediately lit up!
You have to pay extra for one sentence, and it has been popular since 2013 until now.

Zhou Le felt that this line was as classic as those in Let the Bullets Fly.

"Haha, Teacher Zhou has also seen Embroidered Spring Blade?"

Zhou Le nodded: "Yes, Mr. Zhou, when I watched that movie, my favorite character was the monk Jia Qian, played by you."

"You're welcome, Mr. Zhou."

"No, no, Teacher Zhou is my idol."

At this time, Tan Zhuo on the side couldn't bear it anymore.

"What are you two blabbering about? You keep calling Teacher Zhou what Teacher Zhou is. Are you praising each other or yourself?"

After hearing this, Zhou Le was the first to say, "Brother, I really can't be called a teacher right now, so you can just call me Le'er."

Zhou Yiwei nodded: "Then don't call me Teacher Zhou anymore, it's awkward."

"So I call you Vigo?"

"Okay."

After shaking hands with Zhou Yiwei again, Zhou Le looked at Tan Zhuo on the side.

Although the film is not a drama with a female perspective, Tan Zhuo is the leading actress in the film.

But it looks particularly charming.

She looks like a good wife and mother, but with the upturned corners of her eyes, she looks inexplicably charming.

Her skin and figure are well maintained, no wonder Cheng Yong was almost successfully challenged in the script.

That is to say, the appearance of the child at the end brought the plot to a hasty end.

"Sister, I've heard of your great name for a long time, but I never thought we could actually work together."

Tan Zhuo extended his hand first, and then Zhou Le extended his.

Xu Zheng then joked, "I've heard that before. Do you say that to everyone you meet?"

Zhou Le shook his head. "Director Xu, you're wrong. Although you're the producer, I've actually seen all of Tan Zhuo's works. It's not a lot, but Mr. Tree and The Murderer are the ones that left the deepest impression on me. I've also seen Li Kele's Lost Persons, but I can't say much about that one."

When Tan Zhuo heard that Zhou Le could actually talk about some of his own works, he was surprised.

Although the two films mentioned are considered the most successful among her personal works, and she played supporting roles in them, I still remember them.

However, what everyone didn’t know was that Zhou Le had actually checked it online in advance.

Because he really didn't know Tan Zhuo before.

It was only after I saw it on Baidu Encyclopedia that I suddenly realized it.

"Fuck, it turns out she was the one who played this character back then!"

The other one is Zhang Yu who plays Huang Mao.

I really don't know this actor Zhou Le. Even if I search online, I have never seen any of his works.

On the contrary, it was Zhang Yanhui, a swindler who sold fake medicine. Zhou Le had always seen him in various police and gangster films before.

That’s all for today’s starring roles.

In addition, there is Ning Hao who plays the landlord and Yue Xiaojun who plays the owner of the nursing home.

The reason why Yue Xiaojun is here is because he has been working with Ning Hao since the very beginning. He served as a screenwriter in Crazy Stone and also played a guest role in it.

The first day was mainly for everyone to get to know each other.

With just a glance, Zhou Le could tell that most people at the table had some occupational diseases.

But Zhou Le didn't say it.

However, he learned that Tan Zhuo had practiced pole dancing for a month in order to film this movie well, even though the dancing scene was only a dozen seconds long.

The next day, the movie officially started shooting.

It was held in Magang Hotel and was very grand. Some leaders also attended.

As one of the leading actors, Zhou Le also said a few words.

It was just Zhou Le who was speaking, and Xu Zheng was looking at Zhou Le's serious expression from below. Thinking of Zhou Le's previous behavior, he wanted to laugh but was too embarrassed to do so.

After paying respects to all parties, the main creative team followed the leaders to a meeting, and needless to say, there were social events at noon.

It’s just that they still had to film in the afternoon, so except for Ning Hao, everyone else was sober when they came back and didn’t drink.

"Director Ning worked hard, blocking all the alcohol for us by himself."

Xu Zheng directly arranged a car to take Ning Hao back to rest.

He first filmed the church part with several leading actors and director Wen Muye.

It’s just that Xu Zheng and Ning Hao’s crew are naturally rich.

After filming this segment, Xu Zheng asked Wen Mu to notify everyone that night, saying that he would take everyone to a nightclub, under the pretext of finding some inspiration.

But Tan Zhuo was not brought along. Those who know know what they were going to do.

After all, Xu Zheng loves to play.

"Le'er, we're going to the nightclub, are you coming?"

Zhou Le: “?”

"Is that even a question? I have to go!"

"But aren't you trying to lose weight now? You need to stay in shape."

Zhou Le sneered: "Eating and drinking are fine, but playing is fine."
