Huayu: Everyone's been reborn, who's still going to be an actor?

Chapter 7 Relying on Talent to Live Off a Soft Fetish

Cheng Yuan was involved in the entire post-production process of "Buried Alive," including editing, music composition, and subtitles.

Although there was an original version to refer to, it still took Cheng Yuan a lot of brainpower.

However, he was still very satisfied with the final result.

This version is more artistic and less commercial than the original.

This is undoubtedly thanks in no small part to Jiang Wen.

From Cheng Yuan's current perspective, he thinks it's better than the original.

Of course, whether it's good or not isn't up to him to decide.

"Brother Wen, the post-production is done, do you want to take a look?"

Cheng Yuan called Jiang Wen directly, and then called Wang Jingsong and Tian Zhuangzhuang.

He also called Du Jie, but she couldn't come because of something.

After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yuan felt a bit stuffy in the room, so he went out and strolled around the campus.

At this moment, he was like a student about to have his homework checked by the teacher, and he was inevitably a little nervous.

He then found a spot, lit a cigarette, and tried to calm himself down.

This first step has been taken, but who knows what steps it will lead to?

Instant fame? Or...?

Just don't embarrass the reborn.

Why isn't there a system?

I wonder if this first pot of gold will be enough to fund the production of the next movie?

"Cheng Yuan, are you alright?"

Suddenly a voice rang out, and Cheng Yuan turned his head to see Liu Yifei.

She wasn't alone this time; Zhou Yang, who was close to her, was also with her.

"Nothing's wrong."

Cheng Yuan asked, puzzled.

"Nothing's wrong? Why are you smoking here all alone?" Zhou Yang retorted. "Nothing's wrong? You've changed so much! Your hair looks like a mess, and you even have dark circles under your eyes! You don't care about your appearance at all, and you still say nothing's wrong?"

"Did something happen? I haven't seen you in class lately. Didn't your movie wrap up filming?"

Liu Yifei looked at Cheng Yuan with a hint of concern in her eyes.

Of course, the concern wasn't between a man and a woman, but rather the kind of concern between friends or even classmates.

They're at best a little better than strangers.

Cheng Yuan was narcissistic, but he was still self-aware enough not to think that Liu Yifei's concern for him meant she had feelings for him.

But his heart was beating much faster for no reason.

"What could possibly happen to me?" Cheng Yuan said with a smile. "The movie has finished filming, but there's still post-production to go. Didn't I say I'm the director, not an actor? I've been busy with post-production lately, so I haven't had time to worry about my image. Besides, I used to think I could live off my looks, but I found that didn't work. Now I'm going to rely on my talent to live off my wife. Image doesn't seem that important anymore."

"Whose gigolo do you want to live off?"

Zhou Yang smiled and asked.

Cheng Yuan didn't answer, but subconsciously looked at Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei blushed instantly when Cheng Yuan looked at her.

"You really have the nerve to think that way? You actually want to live off Sisi?"

Zhou Yang never expected Cheng Yuan to be so bold.

We've been classmates for over a year, and Cheng Yuan has never really stood out. I never expected him to be so shameless.

"This guy should be fine. He's still thinking about living off you, the kind who's going to force himself on you." Zhou Yang said to Liu Yifei with a smile, "Qianqian, you'd better be careful. This guy doesn't look like a good person."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at Zhou Yang, her face flushing slightly. She looked at Cheng Yuan and said, "Why are you hiding here smoking if you have nothing to do? Smoking is bad."

Is smoking bad?

Cheng Yuan glanced at Liu Yifei; it seemed this young girl would be a heavy smoker in the future.

"You're still young, you don't understand." Cheng Yuan took a drag of his cigarette and said, "What I'm smoking isn't cigarettes, it's loneliness."

Liu Yifei was stunned, and so was Zhou Yang.

Looking at Cheng Yuan's messy hair, dark circles under his eyes, and melancholy expression...

I must say, coupled with his good looks, he really has a unique charm.

I used to think he was alright looking, but nothing special.

But why do I find him charming now?

Good heavens, he's completely disregarded his image.

"Cheng Yuan!"

Suddenly a strong voice came from behind, and looking in the direction of the voice, it was none other than Jiang Wen.

Besides Zhou Yun, there was another person next to him.

Han Sanping!

Why did he come along too?

However, it seems that Jiang Wen and he have a good relationship, so it's not surprising that he came along.

What a disappointment!

You've really come at the worst time. Didn't you see me trying to... raise my profile in front of the young lady?

"I'm busy, talk to you later."

Cheng Yuan stubbed out his cigarette, tossed it into the nearby trash can, then stood up, said something to Liu Yifei and the other woman, and headed towards Jiang Wen and the other two.

"Is that director Jiang Wen?"

"Um!"

"Isn't that Chairman Han from China Film Group?"

"Um!"

"When did Cheng Yuan meet such an amazing person? Is it true that he made a really awesome movie?"

"Um!"

"Yifei, can you stop just saying 'hmm'?"

......

"Brother Wen, Sister Yun!"

"Chairman Han!"

Cheng Yuan ran over and greeted him with a smile.

"What happened to you? I almost didn't recognize you," Jiang Wen said with a laugh. "If you want to pick up girls, you should at least tidy yourself up first."

"What do you mean by picking up girls? Those are my two classmates, my classmates," Cheng Yuan said. "I was just a little nervous and hid there to have a smoke, and they caught me and gave me a lecture."

"Haha, you get nervous sometimes, huh?" Jiang Wen then looked at Han Sanping and introduced him, "Hey, this is the kid I told you about. A second-year student in the acting department at Beijing Film Academy. But this kid's a genius, his directing skills are pretty good too, I don't know how he learned it."

"Hello, Chairman Han!"

Cheng Yuan smiled and extended his hand. Han Sanping did not refuse and smiled as he shook hands with Cheng Yuan.

"I've read the script you wrote for him, it's very good," Han Sanping said. "I'm also very interested in the movie you directed. I just heard that post-production was finished, so I came to check it out."

"Then Mr. Han, please give me some pointers later."

Cheng Yuan said with a smile, then looked at Jiang Wen.

He felt that Han Sanping was someone Jiang Wen had specifically invited.

"Let's go!" Jiang Wen said. "Let's watch the movie first. You brat, you won't let me touch the editing. I want to see what kind of movie you've edited. Let's make it clear, if it's not good enough, I'll have to re-edit it..."

Besides Jiang Wen, Cheng Yuan only notified Wang Jingsong and Tian Zhuangzhuang, but quite a few people came.

Zhang Huijun came, Xie Xiaojing came, and even Mu Deyuan from the photography department came.

This movie was no secret to the school's upper echelons.

Cheng Yuan quickly stepped forward to greet him, not showing any signs of trepidation, but his nervousness was unavoidable.

He audited all of Zhang Huijun's classes.

"nervous?"

Wang Jinsong smiled and asked in a low voice.

"They're all big shots, and I'm just a nobody. How could I not be nervous?"

Cheng Yuan glanced at Zhang Huijun, Jiang Wen, and the others who were greeting each other.

They were clearly acquaintances.

"The school really values ​​your movie," Wang Jinsong said. "What, lack of confidence? It's okay, even if it's a flop, you can still be an actor, and you're still very young."

After exchanging a few casual words, they naturally didn't forget their business.

The movie started playing very soon.

"English dialogue?"

The movie's opening scene surprised both Wang Jinsong and Tian Zhuangzhuang.

The script they were reading wasn't an English script.

"Director Jiang said that it's impossible for a Chinese person to speak Chinese when calling American companies and government departments, and I think that's right."

Cheng Yuan explained in a low voice.

Whether this movie is in Chinese or English is not important.

Neither of them said anything, their eyes fixed on the screen.

Their English proficiency is quite good, so they are naturally unaffected.

At first, there was some sound in the small theater, but it stopped as the plot unfolded.

This was a one-man show, and Jiang Wen's performance undoubtedly shocked everyone.

What's shocking isn't his acting skills, but his performance style.

This is very unlike Jiang Wen.

Everyone present was a film connoisseur; when watching a movie, they wouldn't just focus on the actors' performances, but would also pay attention to the colors, composition, and other aspects.

This movie's style seems quite unlike Jiang Wen's.

Was this filmed by Jiang Wen?

That's quite shocking.

Is this movie really made by second-year acting students at your own college?

When did the school produce such a genius student?
