Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 14 What are the benefits of not being famous?

In the next few days, I practiced martial arts tirelessly. The last time I performed a martial arts scene was the last time. If I don’t practice, the real fighting will be clumsy and ugly. I feel sorry for the producers, the audience, and myself.

Today is the opening ceremony. Xu Yien wore a white T-shirt distributed by the crew, with a "Longing" logo on his left chest. As the "fourth male lead" and an 18th-tier unknown actor, every appearance will attract attention.

Arriving at the venue of the opening ceremony, after waiting for a while, the media also arrived one after another. The two protagonists, Yang Zi and Zhang Wanyi, began to distribute red envelopes to the other actors and staff. Xu Yien took the red envelope handed by Zhang Wanyi and the flowers given by Tong Hua, and said "thank you."

After all the red envelopes were distributed, people started lining up to take group photos.

Xu Yien stood between Deng Wei and Zhang Wanyi.

Yang Zi stood alone in the front row with the director and others.

This is a drama with a strong female lead, and the schedule was customized for Yang Zi by Tencent.

After the opening ceremony, the official shooting begins.

Since Xu Yien is not the male lead, he has to wait for the filming schedule, so there are basically no scenes with Xu Yien today.

I have to wait until tomorrow morning to go outside to shoot the fight scene with Zhang Wanyi.

"Just go back to the hotel and get some sleep. Filming in the early morning is tough." Qin Zhen told Xu Yien, who replied with an "OK."

"Get a good night's sleep and stay in good shape, otherwise it will be hard to shoot in the early morning without being in good shape."

Xu Yien smiled and said, "I see. Thank you, Sister Qin."

"It's okay, go ahead and act well. You're Xiangliu, chosen by Tong Hua. Don't let the author, readers, and audiences down."

"I will."

Do what you should do when you need to do it. Xu Yien used to suffer from insomnia sometimes because he was too anxious.

It’s not like that now, because no matter how poor you are, you still have millions and have enough money to spend, so the anxiety can be delayed a lot.

There is a saying in the entertainment industry that small fame depends on promotion, big fame depends on luck. Whether you can become famous or not still depends on opportunities. You can't take it too lightly, nor can you take it too seriously.

Zhou Yutong in the circle has almost the same mentality as Xu Yien, just be Buddhist.

Whether you are popular or not is not something you can consider by yourself. It depends on how the audience chooses. It is real only if the audience buys it. If the audience doesn’t buy it, you can’t force it.

As a viewer, if I see something terrible and you tell me you worked very hard, I will criticize you even more harshly than before. I think you're terrible, yet you still say you worked very hard. Doesn't that mean it would be even worse if you didn't work hard?

I'm going to criticize you to death. You make so much money but act in such a bad movie. Why should I tolerate you?

Go back to your room and prepare to rest.

A pop-up window appeared on the iPhone. I clicked it and it refreshed for a while.

It turned out that it was Dilraba Dilmurat who sent a selfie. Her face was very beautiful but her hairstyle was very abstract. Looking at the crew of "Legend of the Phoenix", it was found that Dilraba Dilmurat's costume looks in every subsequent female lead role were ugly, and her hairstyle was completely unsuitable for her face.

Xu Yien typed: [This hairstyle is too tight on the scalp and doesn't look good.]

The crew hired the big-name actor, William Chang Suk Ping. So how could I possibly ask for that? Some top actresses look terrible in any outfit, while others can handle any ugly look perfectly.

She sent a voice message, and her arrogance was self-evident.

The corners of his mouth twitched. He always felt that Reba was referring to something, and he knew who it was without her saying it. He knew it was Yang Zi from the same crew. Although she was not good-looking, she was quite popular with the audience.

I typed again: [Okay, no more chatting. I need to get some sleep. I have to do three hours of styling tonight and then shoot a scene in the early morning. After that, I still have to do the soundtrack. It's quite troublesome. I'm going to sleep now.]

Good night. No, good afternoon.

Synchronous sound refers to dubbing on the day of shooting, which is different from on-site recording. In any case, it is better than dubbing.

For example, Wang Hedi is an incompetent actor who can't stand the pressure of dubbing and uses his original voice to shoot a movie. Xu Yien doesn't have to worry about this problem because his Mandarin is not standard enough, because his Mandarin voice is very good!
I slept until 8:30 and sent a message to Dilraba Dilmurat, "I'm awake and ready to go to film. Eat more for dinner."

Then I waited for a while and played a few games of PUBG on my phone. Halfway through the game, I received a message from the group asking me to go to film.

Fortunately, I was playing solo.

Although it is the final round, I will not let my teammates down.

At most, I would lose points, no problem. I slid down the notification page and checked the time. It was already half past ten.

The extras are also very tired at this time. They have to come out to film in the middle of the night, but they can only earn more than 100 yuan per scene, which is pretty good. If they do it as a part-time job and perform more scenes a month, it can also be some extra income.

Without an assistant, I ran to the dressing room alone and began the long process of styling. My hair had to be re-braided every time, and then I had to change my clothes. It was already two o'clock in the morning when I finished putting on makeup.

Follow the production staff to the shooting location.

This scene is a rivalry between Xu Yien and Zhang Wanyi. I have to say that there is nothing wrong with Zhang Wanyi's performance in playing this kind of high-spirited young emperor. His face is smooth, his facial features are decent, and his temperament is more dignified.

Standing with Xu Yien.

It's the two feelings of cool and ethereal and upright and noble.

Lao Gao and several other martial arts instructors began to discuss the scene. Compared to Zhang Wanyi's sword, Xu Yien still liked his own crystal clear crescent scimitar more.

"Let's play like this next." After some instructions, both sides understood.

"Just a quick sword strike from him, and then a set of moves. After fighting for a long time, no one was hurt, right?" Zhang Wanyi said with a smile.

Xu Yien laughed and said, "How can the story develop if the two male protagonists are crippled right from the start?"

"That's right!"

After another round of communication, we were finally able to come down and shoot.

At the director's "Action!"

Everyone got into the mood.

This scene requires wirework. You can't really have people jump up from the spot and fly down from the sky with a sword. We are all actors, not gods.

"Submit to me, and I will treat you well."

"Either you kill me, or I kill you."

No agreement.

The fight between Xuan and Xiangliu would look weird without special effects, because the fairy tale drama does not take the route of real fist-fighting, but the fight cannot be too ugly. Although it is a set of moves, it is also extremely beautiful.

After shooting several times back and forth, this scene ended. What followed was the scene after Xiangliu returned to the military camp. Sometimes it feels great to play a role that has few lines but a good personality.

There is no need to be so tired.

The final gain may be much greater than that of the people who have more roles.

After finishing the day's scenes, it was already dawn. After taking a nap, Xu Yien was not sleepy at all. The crew could not suddenly change the shooting schedule, so they let Xu Yien go out and play.

This is not my first time in Hengdian, but it is okay to just walk around and enjoy the scenery.

What are the benefits of not being famous?
I have money, but no one pays attention to me.

Some Buddhist actors like this state. Everyone has his or her own way of living.
