I'm not a drama freak, I can really see through the script

Chapter 177, Aftermath: Huh? Is this the Level Certificate exam?

"Well, that's for sure!"

This is the first female lead role in Liu Yifei's career, and its significance is much greater than Bai Xiuzhu and Wang Yuyan. It will even affect "The Return of the Condor Heroes" which was about to start filming the following year.

Even if it is for The Return of the Condor Heroes, we have to lay a solid foundation in this "Chinese Paladin".

Sense of camera, makeup, and acting.

Moreover, Liu Yifei had another idea in her mind.

That is... myself. I really can't fall too far behind.

At this time, Li Xuan chose the weekend.

I went to the Wushu Association to prepare for a certification exam. However, when I got to the Wushu Association, I found that some classmates had already taken the lead, as well as some media reporters.

What day is it today? There are so many people gathered around the Wushu Association, and there are also many reporters carrying cameras.

"Good brother! You're here!"

After knowing that Li Xuan was coming, the person who came to receive Li Xuan was Ye Shaoxin, the top martial arts stuntman whom he met in "The Knight-errant". Now his identity has changed and he has become a member of the martial arts department of the General Administration of Sports - a formal system organization.

In his words, being a stand-in is not something you can do for the rest of your life. It can only be a hobby. People, after drifting for a long time, always need to get ashore. You can't continue to muddle along.
Li Xuan felt a little emotional. After seeing each other for such a long time, he was really impressed by her.

Although Li Xuan was also studying at the Beijing Film Academy, the two had very little time to meet. After all, as an actor, one really has to travel everywhere to film, and does not stay in one place for much time. Many great actors have houses everywhere, or at least hotels where they live for a long time. Many old crews also directly connect with hotels.

Adrift
However, Li Xuan didn't care about this. After all, he was essentially a person who was used to wandering, but Ye Shaoxin was not that kind of person. He had a family and a home, so it was difficult for him to travel far. So he gave up his job as a stand-in and just lived here.

"As for you, you've also had your ups and downs in the entertainment industry. Almost everyone knows you exist."

At this time, Ye Shaoxin said: "I knew you were not an ordinary person."

Ye Shaoxin felt a little emotional. Compared with the [Hangpiao] back then, the current Li Xuan could look back and say proudly to his past self.

I finally came here
Finally, it’s [Actor].

"By the way, what are all these reporters doing here with their cameras?"

"Hey, the people invited by Zhouyi Film and Television. Didn't they previously make 'Water Moon Cave' and make Jiao Junen famous? Now that person is here to conduct research, Zhouyi Film and Television invited a large number of reporters. They [accidentally] ran into Yu Bo, who was practicing martial arts diligently. It's not a chance encounter at all. The camera positions were all arranged in advance."

Ye Shaoxin's complaints made Li Xuan feel like laughing. This operation couldn't look more familiar.

History is indeed a circle.

Here are some very familiar and cool operations.
"It shouldn't affect my certification."

"The aftermath shouldn't affect you." Ye Shaoxin said jokingly, "But there will still be someone who can influence you."

As he spoke, Li Xuan saw a person coming from not far away.

An image that instantly popped up in Li Xuan’s mind – bringing any evil to justice.

Fight, Wolf!!!
At this time, Li Xuan looked at Wu Jing in front of him. Wasn't he influenced by him to go to Hong Kong to develop?

This Wolf Warrior is actually a direct descendant of the Beijing circle. Although he is an old Beijing circle, if he is willing to stay here, there are still resources to support him.

Look, Zhang Guoli has integrated into the new Beijing circle and his status is not low now.

"When did you return to the mainland?"

"I'll be back after filming 'A Chinese Ghost Story' and some other movies. But I'll have to go back again after a while to finish filming 'The Legend of Mir 2: The Flower City War' and 'The Legend of Mir : The Golden Fighter'."

"A Chinese Ghost Story", the TV series in which Da X played Nie Xiaoqian, and Wu Jing played Zhiqiu Yiye's isomorph, Zhuge Liuyun.

From the perspective of classification, it is not like the traditional ancient costume fairy tale, but more like ancient costume fantasy. However, many works of this era are imaginative, and there is no need to stick to fantasy or any other classification, as long as it looks good.

What surprised Li Xuan was that he actually had to film "The Kiss 2".

If "New Police Story" was a film made by Cheng Shilong to promote his apprentice, then "The King's Woman 2" is really a film made to promote his own son.

A biological son, a blood-related one.

"Ah, Thousand Planes"

"Well, I was able to join this crew this time thanks to you."

"I?"

Heaven and earth can bear witness that I went to shoot this work just to get by.
Wu Jing smiled and said, "Your martial arts scenes in 'The Matrix 1' are one of the few highlights of the entire film. Thanks to you, the production team paid a lot of attention to the martial arts scenes this time."

As a martial arts actor, Wolf Warrior naturally has the advantage of joining the group.

Why did Emperor Entertainment Group still choose to shoot "The Legend of Mir" even though it lost so much money? It's actually very simple. There are two purposes for making this movie, one is for box office, and the other is to promote people. Although it has failed at the box office, the purpose of promoting people has been achieved.

At least as an idol film, this work is still quite qualified. The handsome men and beautiful women are not treated unfairly in terms of styling, which has attracted a certain audience.

For some audiences, the quality of a movie is sometimes not that important, and the plot of the movie does not have to be that difficult to understand. It only needs to be marketable to sell at the box office.

Martial arts actually belong to this category as well.

The fist-fighting martial arts are the selling point, and using the selling point to conquer the audience is also a strategy.

"Actually, the Hong Kong film and television industry is pretty good. At least for someone like me who likes to fight, it's quite friendly. I think I've found the right place."

Wu Jing's kung fu is actually more practical.

The Hong Kong entertainment industry is his natural comfort zone.

"Don't you think it's a pity? Changing a circle is equivalent to changing your own network resources. All the land you have accumulated in the capital will be wasted on this trip." Ye Shaoxin next to him looked at Wu Jing with some curiosity. You know, Wu Jing has a lot of connections in the capital.

His surname is Yehenara.

Unexpectedly, Wu Jing showed an expression that looked a little disgusted.

"It's New China, and yet there are so many unnecessary circles. This place is pretty boring. There are plenty of resources, but a bunch of people are ranked by seniority, and the stuff they come up with is even more disgusting than toilet water."

The language of Wolf Warrior needs to be less aggressive.

However, for Wu Jing, this is indeed the case. After all, in this old Beijing circle, filming a work with a viewership rating of 0.002 can basically be regarded as a black history in his acting career.

The kind that can't be cleaned even by washing.

It’s just this little piece of land, I don’t want it.

"But you, during the time I was in Hong Kong, actually got into a conflict with someone in the Beijing circle."

"I can't help it. I just want to film well."

Li Xuan was also helpless at this time.

However, Wu Jing had no other thoughts and even stood up for Li Xuan.

Li Xuan is just a small actor.

Even if you don't participate, if you join the Beijing circle, you won't be targeted like this.

The targeted measures include but are not limited to resource restrictions, as well as telling directors and producers in the Beijing circle not to use Li Xuan.

This is actually a very narrow-minded thing, such a large circle targeting one person.

Even if there is an intention to make an example of Beijing Film Academy, it is a bit too despicable.

"Don't worry, since you're one of our martial arts athletes, you're half one of us. If they dare to do something despicable, they'll be slapping our Sports Bureau in the face."

Wu Jing next to him said, in this small piece of land in the capital.

When you are promoting circle culture, you can't go too far.

Too much.

"Of course. If you're a high-ranking national athlete, and they want to mess with you, our Sports Bureau will give you even more support. Furthermore, the Sports Bureau also sponsors a lot of entertainment industry projects. Do you understand what I mean?"

At this time, Wu Jing smiled faintly.

In fact, the words are very obvious.

Your value determines the help and status you can get, which is a reality.

However, the relationship between values ​​and interests is also the most stable relationship in the world besides family ties.

Ye Shaoxin smiled.

"We, the Traditional Martial Arts Association, refuse to accept this!"

"Come on, your traditional martial arts association can't even make it to the table."

"Don't say that. Although those people in our traditional martial arts association are incompetent at anything and have nothing left over from eating anything, the families that can pass down traditional martial arts at least have ancestors who were once wealthy."

When it comes to fighting, my martial arts association is no match for me.

But compared to traditional arts, your Sports Bureau is still a little behind!

We turn the table to rinse our mouths, and we all use Moutai!

At this time, Li Xuan smiled.

"That's why I came here today, and I also want to take the test."

Just like this time in "Kung Fu," everyone knows that his martial arts skills are definitely more than the level of a third-level athlete, but the salary he was assessed for was at the level of a third-level athlete. If he were a second-level athlete, his salary would be at least 30% higher.

A certificate is so important.

Anyway, taking the exam has always been in my plan.

"I'll be your examiner this time, and I won't go easy on you."

Wu Jing was looking at Li Xuan in front of her with great interest at this time.

The last fight was unsuccessful.

This time I have to make up for the regrets of last time.

At this time, Yu Bo became a popular male lead after filming Shuiyuedongtian.

Various plans for this year are coming one after another.

The incident of having my spotlight stolen on the midterm paper is already a thing of the past. The aftermath still makes me laugh and cry. I was so young and naive back then.

I'm already the male lead, but I'm having so much trouble with a freshman.

Oh no, he is a sophomore now.

But so what?

I am the male lead of Zhouyi Film and Television.

There are people to support him, there are resources, and there are works.

It can be said that he has everything he wants. Recalling his dissatisfaction with Li Xuan, it was so childish. Moreover, he seems to be being targeted by the Beijing circle.
Of course, Yu Bo also knew that Li Xuan was targeted not entirely because of his rebelliousness, but also because of Beijing Film Academy itself. A series of courses made this kid from the countryside feel uncomfortable. It was obvious that the school was targeting the current capital circle.

Without capital to support you, how can you be a star? This is not like eating with your chopsticks in hand and cursing after putting them down.

Without capitalists, circles, and bosses, there would be no us. How could we achieve anything?

This is what Yu Bo firmly believes. Without the support of capital, they would not be where they are today.
"I guess this Li Xuan is a case of a "Zhongyong" who was hurt. Alas, the entertainment industry is like this. It is possible to be in the limelight this year and be forgotten by everyone next year. There are only a few who can remain in the limelight, let alone those who can climb up step by step."

In this circle, most people will maintain the same status when they debut, at least for the next ten years. All major film and television groups have actuaries to calculate the residual value.

Unless you are lucky enough to come across a great script and the performance becomes a hit, soaring to the sky, but how many projects are there like "My Fair Princess" where all the protagonists are promoted to top-tier positions overnight?
Most people are like this.
For Yu Bo, Li Xuan is a typical example of a wasted Zhongyong.

I am a typical example. I have seized the opportunities of the times and also know myself clearly - of course, the premise is that I have the ability to do so.

As the second man in the media's eyes who can pull off a ramen hairstyle, and with a bodyguard background, he's a great target for hype. Today, the media arranged by Zhouyi Film and Television are surrounding him. Just wait and see, when he takes the martial arts certification exam, he'll do a dashing and powerful roundhouse kick that will shock all the martial arts athletes present!
Sure enough, opportunities only come to capable men!
Before being admitted to Beijing Film Academy, Yu Bo was a bodyguard.

He is also a man who works as a bodyguard on a platform dedicated to fishing.

Guns, fighting, and combat are all his comfort zone. When filming "Water Moon Cave", the martial arts he used were all real fighting skills.

At this time, under the attention of reporters invited by Zhouyi Film and Television, Yu Bo walked into the examination gate of the Sports Bureau.

"This instant noodle guy is so arrogant. Should we stop those reporters?"

"Oh, there's no point in promoting martial arts without the help of the media. We're not a tax bureau, we're a subsidiary of the Sports Bureau, used to assess the level of athletes. The more they come, the better. They can help us promote Chinese martial arts."

“You’re not traditional.”

"What's traditional or not traditional? You're too rigid."

At this time, Wu Jinquan and Wu Bin were watching from the side.
"By the way, where is your son?" Wu Bin looked at Wu Jinquan and said, "Didn't he go back to the mainland?"

“Yes, I’m back.”

"Look at this kid, why does he run to the south instead of staying in the mainland circle?" Wu Bin didn't even understand Wu Jing's behavior.

But he didn't expect that Wu Jinquan next to him would also sneer at him.

"Forget it, are you going to stay here and hang out with that group of people?"

Even Wu Jinquan himself looked down on those in the Beijing circle. Calling himself the "old aristocracy" was already deplorable enough, and now he was actively trying to flatter others by assimilating himself into the new Beijing circle of intellectuals.
Wu Jinquan felt it was shameful that he had been associated with this group of people in the past.

"If a circle is judged by seniority, age, and background, then sooner or later, this circle will decay and become corrupt. It's better not to wait."

In fact, he no longer likes the old Beijing circle and is gradually fading out of that circle.

Wu Bin just chuckled.

"Oh, you say the Beijing circle is decaying and corrupt. I'm afraid that even after you're dead, the Beijing circle will still be there. This is a circle created by talented and capable nobles. They have everything they want. I say that in the next ten years, the Hong Kong circle, the Taiwan circle, and those circles in the northwest and northeast will not be enough to compete with the Beijing circle."

Film directors, starting from the third generation, include the two Xies from the north and south, the four generals of Beijing Film Academy (Shuihua, Cui Wei, Cheng Yin, Ling Zifeng), Li Jun, and Lin Nong.

The fifth generation of directors, and even the sixth generation that is now gradually gaining strength, are all from the Beijing circle, not to mention TV dramas, such as Tielin, Guoli, Zhao Yanzi
This behemoth was not created by the promotion of others, but was built through real strength and has extraordinary international influence!

"You are such a pedantic person. If we weren't close, I wouldn't even bother to scold you."

At this time, Wu Jinquan spoke in his own voice.

"The fifth and sixth generations. The most internationally influential director group. Ha, as long as they film the backwardness, poverty, suffering, and black soil of the countryside, these labels become the code for international influence."

It’s not to say that there is no poverty, pain, and black soil. These are the scars of the times, development, and labels, which are good.

The problem is that it would be boring if it were all about this. People like Zhang Mouzi and Kaige are both pursuing change. These two are more interesting. As for the others, especially the one named Jia Zhangke, Wu Jinquan has the urge to beat him up every time he sees him.

"I think that young man who is neither humble nor overbearing is more to my liking."

In Wu Jinquan's eyes, someone flashed
"Ah? How could it be such a coincidence?"

At this time, when Yu Bo entered the General Administration, he saw a familiar young man, a freshman who almost made him unable to sleep.

Oh no, I’m a sophomore now.

You!

Fortunately, I caught you!
"Hello, senior." At this time, Li Xuan looked at Yu Bo and teased, "Your ramen hair is no less than Jiao Junen's."

"Hmph, of course. I'm one of the only two men who can handle a ramen hairstyle. Stop taking pictures, stop taking pictures, and stop here for a while." Yu Bo subconsciously asked the paparazzi hired by Zhouyi Film and Television to stop taking pictures. This was to increase his own popularity. Li Xuan in front of him had no part in it!

But soon, the idea was curbed.

That’s not right. The advantage lies in comparison!

Didn't Li Xuan also say before that he had an advantage in movement?!
So he came here now to take the test.
Yu Bo has always felt that it is difficult for one person (except myself) to balance the development of acting and action, unless some gifted people (such as myself) can balance this development trend to a certain extent.

That's because I have had traces of training in this area since I was a child, and I also graduated from a regular professional college. With these two advantages, I am truly strong.

In terms of acting, Yu Bo still admits to a certain extent that Li Xuan is good, but in terms of martial arts - don't think you can claim to understand action martial arts just because you have learned some fancy moves.

As your senior, your elder in the entertainment industry, I'm going to teach you a lesson: being arrogant and unruly, being ignorant of one's own limitations, and being self-righteous are sins.
"Junior, it's not that easy to get a martial arts certificate. What level are you trying to get?"

"Oh, I'm here to take the Level 2 exam."

"Oh, I'm here to take the Level 1 exam today." Yu Bo paused and said, "I miss it so much. When I took the Level 2 exam, my teeth hadn't even changed yet. I practiced for a long time at that time."

The media friends nearby gasped. Is this the result of practicing kung fu since childhood?

However, he did not obtain his certificate in Peking, but in his hometown of Shandong. But they are almost the same.

Martial arts athletes have their own standards as athletes, unlike martial arts associations, which often emphasize inheritance or, to put it bluntly, freedom of opinion. Martial arts are only called martial arts if they are useful.

"Oh, that's great." Li Xuan said perfunctorily.

At this time, Yu Bo chuckled.

"How is it? Do you want some guidance from my senior brother?"

Yu Bo even hoped that Li Xuan could be more resistant to beatings, otherwise, the media would be unable to capture his image.

Isn't the title out?

[The gap and chasm between martial arts and dance]

"Okay, after I finish fighting with Wu Jing and pass the second-level certificate exam, I'll have a competition with you, senior." Li Xuan smiled and didn't think there was anything wrong with it. When it comes to martial arts, it's good to practice more and make friends through martial arts.

"Okay." Yu Bo came to give the media a cold look, come quickly, today I, Tong Bo, Bai Qiwei, and Yu Bo will show you what real kung fu is.

At this time, Li Xuan chose his weapon, which was a stick.

Wu Jing is also a stick.
"I'm the best at this, are you sure?"

"Me too"

I have killed countless vampires with my spear.
Yu Bo waited patiently, as the second-level martial arts certificate fight was not very interesting to watch.
Then Wu Jing started fighting Li Xuan with a stick.

The stick is good at sweeping and knocking.

Li Xuan's staff was more like a spear, used for stabbing and thrusting. Both sides unleashed their full strength, fighting like a violent storm. The entire training room was filled with the sound of bangs. Not only the media, but also the martial arts athletes practicing nearby came to watch.
Oh my god, someone nearby was watching and exclaimed in admiration, saying that this level of martial arts looked extraordinary.

A senior student from Beijing Film Academy was stunned by what he saw.

Yu Bo: “Huh?”

The firepower is full, and it is difficult to separate them. The gun and the stick are like dragons. Damn, even the sonic boom is produced. This is a solid wooden stick.
Is this the second-level athlete certification exam?

Yu Bo's face suddenly turned pale. Is the certificate from Beijing different from the one from Shandong?
