Entertainment: The Path to Best Actor for Talented Actors

.

The chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala was Liu Zhen.

The main hosting team consisted of Kang Hui, Ren Luyu, Zhu Xun, Nigmat, and Li Sisi, with three additional branch venues.

In October, Zhang Ze learned that he would be performing a song and dance program.

He and Liu Tao will sing a song together.

Although he can sing well, Zhang Ze felt a lot of pressure when he heard that he would be singing on CCTV's Spring Festival Gala.

After all, he's an actor; singing is just a hobby for him.

In order to avoid losing face in front of the whole country, he plans to find a music teacher to give him some extra lessons and cram!

But who should he turn to? He was in a bit of a dilemma!

He doesn't know many people in the music industry!

Yu Haoming and Zhang Yixing are among the few connections he has, but right now this great war god of the Ming Dynasty is filming "The Study Abroad Diary of the Oirat Mongols" in Hengdian!

It seems we can only turn to Yu Haoming. Although he roasted this second uncle a month ago, they still get along very well in private.

He called Yu Haoming and told him about it. Yu Haoming assured Zhang Ze that he would take care of it.

With his connections in the music industry, finding someone to give him guidance would be a piece of cake.

Less than an hour later, the other party called back to say it was all done.

"Aze, the guy I found for you is a real talent. Back when I was competing in Super Boy, I only came in sixth place, but this guy is the champion!"

You mean Chen Chusheng?

"Do you know him?"

Yu Haoming was somewhat surprised.

"I know him, but he doesn't know me! I watched the whole Super Boy competition back then," Zhang Ze explained with a smile.

Before 08, he had not yet entered the entertainment industry. At that time, Chen Chusheng's "Is There Anyone Who Told You" was very popular.

Zhang Ze quickly got in touch with Chen Chusheng. Ever since he disappeared at the 09 New Year's Eve gala, Chen Chusheng had offended Hunan TV and was blacklisted by his former employer, Tianyu Media, within the industry.

It also set a record for the highest breach of contract claim in the history of the entertainment industry, reaching a staggering 227 billion.

Chen Chusheng hasn't had a good time in the entertainment industry these past few years; he's released several albums but hasn't made much of a splash.

In recent years, he has tried to make it in the film and television industry, and has played many minor roles, but no one can remember him at all.

Driven by his musical dream, Chen Chusheng is currently taking on jobs like crazy.

He even started taking on vocal coaching jobs.

Knowing his longtime friend's current predicament, Yu Haoming introduced the job to Chen Chusheng.

Three days later, Chen Chusheng arrived in Yanjing.

He was still a little shy and reserved when they first met.

However, with Zhang Ze's reassurance, he quickly got back into the swing of things.

Chen Chusheng is very skilled in singing, and his explanations are easy to understand.

The next day, after the two had gotten to know each other better, Chen Chusheng said to Zhang Ze with a smile.

"Do you know what I studied first when I went to Berkeley for further studies?"

Zhang Ze shook his head.

"The first thing I learned was breathing! I went straight through eight lessons on breathing!"

"Hehe!" Zhang Ze laughed.

"After the first class, I couldn't breathe!"

"Is breathing really that important for singing?" Zhang Ze asked, somewhat surprised.

He used to sing entirely by feeling and had never received any systematic training.

Chen Chusheng approached Zhang Ze and placed his hands on his waist.

"Remember this position, this is your diaphragm. Inhale, inhale, inhale again..."

Chen Chusheng is 7 years older than Zhang Ze, and seems to be a very quiet person.

After getting to know them better, I discovered that they are a very humorous person who always manages to make a joke unintentionally.

While studying vocal music, Zhang Ze was also doing other work.

Within a month, he clearly felt that his singing skills had improved significantly.

When singing, I no longer rely on my feelings as before, but instead learn to use breath control and techniques.

On November 2nd, Zhang Ze and Liu Tao arranged to meet at a recording studio in Beijing.

The two plan to practice singing together today.

"Aze, long time no see!"

"Sister Tao is still so beautiful, why does she look thinner after not seeing her for a few months?"

"Really? It seems like your recent weight control efforts are working!" Liu Tao said with a smile.

The two were old acquaintances and were quite happy to see each other again.

After chatting for a while, they quickly began their first duet.

The song they sang this time was called "A New Beginning of Happiness".

This song is not difficult to sing. After a month of intensive study, Zhang Ze is fully capable of mastering it.

In the recording studio, the sound engineer couldn't help but nod when he heard Liu Tao sing the first line.

Listen with your eyes closed.

"Let us speak our minds... With dreams, I have a tomorrow~"

After Liu Tao finished singing two lines, it was Zhang Ze's turn to sing.

"We want the whole world to hear it!"

Zhang Ze's voice was very magnetic as soon as he opened his mouth, and his deep voice was very pure.

The sound engineer couldn't help but nod in agreement; thankfully, they didn't need to spend millions on audio editing.

What he fears most now is actors singing; it's simply horrible.

After the song ended, Liu Tao looked at Zhang Ze with some surprise and said,

"I never knew Zhang Ze could sing so well!"

"Haha, as long as I don't hold you back, that's fine. Singing with you is so stressful!"

Liu Tao is a very good singer; she even won the championship in a previous crossover singer competition.

"Hehe~! No, no, you sang quite well."

Afterwards, the two discussed the details and sang together twice more.

Zhang Ze practiced in the recording studio until 3 p.m., but had to stop because he had to rush to Hengdian to continue filming.

"Then let's wait for the first rehearsal in a week!" Liu Tao smiled and looked at Zhang Ze.

"Okay, that's settled! We can adjust it after the initial layout if there are any problems." Zhang Ze nodded.

The "first rehearsal" they were referring to was the first dress rehearsal.

After the program is approved, a first rehearsal will be held. The main purpose of this rehearsal is to allow the actors to adapt to the stage and performance environment, and to check the program's timing and musical coordination.

Next comes the detailed rehearsals, where the actors' movements and the music are meticulously crafted.

After the detailed rehearsal comes the combined rehearsal, followed by a summary and adjustment, and finally, four dress rehearsals.

A Spring Festival Gala spans several months, so those who participate in it certainly can't devote all their energy to just one thing.

After parting ways with Liu Tao, Zhang Ze flew directly to Chengdu.

In May of this year, a shocking event occurred in the aviation industry.

A Sichuan Airlines plane, 3U8633, was involved in an aviation accident.

During the flight from Chongqing to Lhasa, at an altitude of 9800 meters, the right windshield of the cockpit detached, causing cabin depressurization.

Thanks to Captain Liu Chuanjian's superb piloting skills, the plane was successfully piloted back to Chengdu for an emergency landing, ensuring the safety of all 119 passengers and 9 crew members on board.

This incident caused a great sensation both at home and abroad, and Captain Liu Chuanjian was dubbed "China's version of Captain Sully".

This happened in May, and by late July, the State Film Administration had announced the film's registration.

This is arguably the fastest film project ever initiated after the events of that time.

Because it is based on a true story, the script and other aspects progressed very quickly.

He received this offer in August while filming "Ming Dynasty" and the cast was finalized.

Zhang Hanyu plays Captain Liu Chuanli, Zhang Ze plays the co-pilot, and Ou Hao plays the first officer.

Yuan Quan plays the chief flight attendant, while the other flight attendants include Zhang Tianai, Li Qin, and Yang Ying.

Zhang Ze rushed to Chengdu today because tomorrow is the first day that Sichuan Airlines flight 3U8633 will return to the skies after being repaired.

The three of them represented the film crew and took this flight to witness this special moment.

"Brother Han, Sister Quan!" Zhang Ze waved and greeted the two from a distance.

He came over to the two of them and gave them a happy hug.

"I'm so happy to finally be able to work with you two!"

"Haha, me too!" Zhang Hanyu laughed and hugged Zhang Ze's neck.

"Don't I remember you two worked together before?" Yuan Quan asked with some doubt.

"No, I don't remember!"

Operation Red Sea!

"Haha, we didn't have any scenes together back then, so strictly speaking, we didn't really work together!" Zhang Hanyu replied with a laugh.

Yuan Quan asked casually, "What has Zeng Lai been busy with recently?"

"I've been performing in a play with the theater troupe these past two days!"

"Is the child doing well lately?"

"That's great! The little guy has been eating a lot lately and has grown taller!"

He couldn't help but smile whenever he mentioned his son, Zhang Ze.

"Really! Let me see the photos quickly!" Yuan Quan urged Zhang Ze to show them to her with some curiosity.

"You're a terrible godmother! Tell me how long it's been since you last visited our son!" Zhang Ze complained as she scrolled through the photo album.

"I've been busy lately! I'll go to Beijing to see him when I have time!" Yuan Quan replied with a smile.

Zhang Ze handed his phone to Yuan Quan so she could watch Zhang Zheli's video.

Zhang Hanyu, who was standing nearby, asked Zhang Ze, "How is your puppy looking now?"

"Great, you're all grown up now!" He gestured with his hands to indicate his name.

That litter had six pups, and Zhang Ze kept two of them at the horse farm.

Zhang Hanyu smiled and discussed dog ownership with him for a while.

Airport staff quickly ushered the three of them onto the plane.

This was the second time the three had seen this heroic crew.

Whether it was Captain Liu Chuanjian or the other flight attendants, they were all very welcoming to them.

The three of them did not go to first class, but instead traveled in economy class.

Passengers who had purchased tickets were already excited about the first flight of the legendary aircraft 3U8633.

They were all excited when they discovered that three celebrities were traveling on the same flight with them.

In particular, the little girl sitting next to Zhang Ze had a flushed face and kept stealing glances at him.

I was so excited I didn't know what to do.

After holding it in for a long time, I finally mustered up the courage to ask Zhang Ze if we could take a picture together.

Zhang Ze smiled and nodded in agreement, which made the other party excitedly gesticulate wildly.

The three of them joining this flight was actually part of a promotional campaign.

When the plane flies to an altitude of 10,000 meters and enters the stratosphere

They stepped forward and interacted with the hundreds of passengers on the plane, inviting them to remember to watch the movie "The Captain".

After this flight, Zhang Ze and the other lead actors still have other tasks to complete.

The film is scheduled to begin shooting after the new year, and the main creators will need to learn professional aviation knowledge.

Zhang Ze and Zhang Hanyu are going to the Sichuan Airlines Training Center to learn how to fly a plane; Yuan Quan and the others are also going to participate in real flight attendant training.

"Haha, I never thought I, Zhang Ze, would have the opportunity to learn how to fly a plane!"

The next day, the nine crew members of "The Captain" went to the aviation training center to report for duty.

Of the other actresses who played flight attendants, besides Yuan Quan and Zhang Ze, Yang Ying is the most familiar to everyone.

Actors like Zhang Tianai and Li Qin are collaborating for the first time.

When they arrived at the training center, there were quite a few people waiting for them.

Welcome to all students!

An elderly man with glasses and slightly gray hair stood in the middle, smiling and shaking hands with each of them.

"I am Liu Tianyu, the director of the training center, and I am in charge of arranging your food, clothing, accommodation and transportation for the next three months."

Zhang Hanyu, acting as the senior member, stepped forward to shake hands with the other party, saying, "Hello, Director Liu, thank you for your help! We, the nine of us, will follow your instructions for the next three months!"

Soon someone came and took them away.

Zhang Ze and his friends went to learn piloting skills; Yuan Quan and the other beauties went to learn flight attendant training.

A handsome man in his forties led the three to a classroom and said kindly...

"Brother Han, Ah Ze, I really enjoy watching your movies. I never expected to have the chance to meet you guys today."

"Haha! Now you not only know us, but you've also become our teacher. From now on, we'll have to call you teacher!" Zhang Ze replied with a smile as he followed behind him.

"Haha, now I can brag to others that Zhang Hanyu, Zhang Ze, and Ou Hao are my students!"

"Ha ha!"

The group laughed happily.

"You three find seats first. This morning we'll learn the theory, and this afternoon we'll practice in the simulation chamber."

"This will be the arrangement for the next three months!"

Pilots are generally quite charismatic. This pilot, dressed in his pilot's uniform, looks very handsome—a charming middle-aged man.

I never imagined that ten years after graduation, I would still have the opportunity to sit in a classroom and listen to a teacher's lecture in a serious manner.

"Teacher, may I ask your name?"

"My name is Zhang Weifeng, you can just call me Instructor Zhang!" the other person replied kindly.

Instructor Zhang gave each of the three students a notebook.

It has a very good texture, with a black leather cover printed with an airplane and the words "Sichuan Airlines" in large gold letters.

"Now we'll officially begin class. To start, I'll give you a brief overview of the history of civil aviation..."

Instructor Zhang spoke from above, and the three of them diligently took notes below.

At first, Zhang Ze could understand it, but gradually it felt like he was listening to gibberish.

He was scratching his head as he listened to Bernoulli's principle, the four principles of flight, and all sorts of technical terms.

It feels like I'm back in high school learning English!

He turned to look at Zhang Hanyu and Ou Hao, both of whom were scratching their heads in deep, serious expressions.

I can't worry about all these years now. I'll just focus on taking notes and figure out what I don't understand after class!

The class ended quickly, and each of the three students had taken more than ten pages of notes.

"Hehe, how was it? Did you understand?" Instructor Zhang asked with a gentle smile.

"At first, I could understand the passenger plane model, and later I could roughly understand the principles, but the circuit was really difficult."

Zhang Ze's answer was factual and truthful.

"Haha, it's normal not to understand! Don't worry, take your time!"

Then Instructor Zhang said, "Your course schedule is rather rushed, so learn as much as you can!"

After resting for a while, we started the second class.

The language of flight we learned in this lesson

In the past, we often heard in movies and TV dramas that captains spoke in very professional-sounding English while flying.

Moreover, these terms can only be understood by aviation professionals, just like the technical jargon used by doctors, which sounds very sophisticated.
