Entertainment: The Path to Best Actor for Talented Actors

The fans outside posted a video online of Zhang Ze riding a shared bicycle to CCTV's rehearsal.

This quickly sparked heated discussions.

I followed Sa Beining, who was arm in arm with me, as we walked through the courtyard toward the studio.

He and Sa Beining have known each other for more than four years and get along very well.

Along the way, the two encountered many celebrities, who all greeted them with smiles.

For the first rehearsal, you don't need to wear makeup. You just need to walk around the stage and perform a short act.

So everyone in the studio was dressed casually.

Once inside the studio, the two became formal, completely different from their earlier friendly pose.

Backstage, Sa Beining led Zhang Ze to their host's room.

He was introduced to several people, including Ren Luyu, Liu Sisi, Zhu Xun, and Nigmat.

Zhang Ze doesn't have many opportunities to interact with these CCTV hosts.

This time, I've expanded my social circle.

Because it was the first rehearsal, everyone was quite relaxed.

When she wasn't on stage, after practicing her performance backstage, she would wander around socializing.

Before Liu Tao and Zhang Ze could even go out to greet others, they were stopped by a group of young dancers.

After taking photos with them, the two visited Ge You, Cai Ming, Jackie Chan, and Emil Chau.

On the way, Shen Teng met Sha Yi and his wife, Jiang Shuying, Jing Tian, ​​and Liu Ye, and chatted with them for a while.

"Uncle Ze! Teacher Liu!" Yue Yunpeng and Sun Yue walked over from the side.

"Yo Yunpeng and Yue Ge are here! How's the show going?"

"Still revising the script, comedy sketches are so difficult! It's giving me a headache," Yue Yunpeng said, frowning.

The four of them found a stool and sat down. After chatting for a while, the other two left.

Their show is earlier in the program, so they don't have much time to sit here.

There are many familiar faces in this studio, but also many people I don't know at all.

Soon, Phoenix Legend, Linghua and Zeng Yi, Dilraba, and Wang Junkai, along with their three members, came over to greet them.

The rehearsal only took an hour, but the networking took up most of the day.

Zhang Ze felt that he had been talking to so many people today that his throat was starting to hurt, so he quickly drank some water to moisten it.

The first rehearsal went very smoothly, and Zhang Ze felt like he had given himself a day off.

When I got home in the afternoon, I found that he was trending on the internet.

It turns out it was about riding a shared bike today, which got a lot of likes from netizens.

He smiled and didn't take it to heart.

It's just riding a bicycle! What's the big deal?

He underestimated the impact of this matter.

Starting the next day, many official accounts praised his unpretentious and down-to-earth behavior.

After the rehearsal, they returned to Chengdu to continue filming "The Captain".

From this moment on, the three captains are completely separated from the crew.

They filmed the cockpit scenes separately in a studio, while flight attendants Yuan Quan and Zhang Tianai filmed in the cockpit with the extras.

This is the film in which Zhang Ze has had the least contact with extras since he started acting.

Throughout the entire production, he hardly worked with any of the extras; his two minor roles were even played by celebrities.

During this period, Zhang Ze was very busy. He not only had to attend two or three rehearsals, but also participate in the roadshow for "Operation Red Sea".

After several months of post-production editing, Operation Red Sea is scheduled to be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

After entering the twelfth lunar month, he felt so busy that it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was constantly on the go.

I took four flights in just one week, I really became a frequent flyer!

That day, Zhang Ze flew to Sanya and arrived at the naval base.

The crew of "Operation Red Sea" came up with a new concept: to release the film to the Navy first.

This was the first time the film was shown to the public after its completion. Instead of going to theaters, it was shown for free at a naval base to show appreciation to the public.

The pitch suddenly rose considerably.

Wearing a pristine white naval uniform, Zhang Ze, along with Hai Qing, Jiang Luxia, and Huang Jingyu, engaged in face-to-face conversations with naval officers and soldiers.

Discussing interesting anecdotes from the filming process with them,

The officers and soldiers were completely engrossed in watching the movie!

After the movie, Zhang Ze and his group boarded a warship that was still in service for a visit.

When they arrived beneath the warship, they realized just how enormous it was.

"Wow! How tall is that? It doesn't look that big on TV!" Huang Jingyu exclaimed in surprise, looking up and shielding his eyes from the sunlight.

"It must be at least five stories high!"

"That's so cool! Look at that cannon! And that radar! The difference between seeing it on TV and seeing it in real life is just too big."

The group looked back and forth on the warship several times.

This is the Type 054A destroyer that participated in the production of this movie.

This close-in weapon system made an appearance in a movie.

A naval lieutenant commander led a group of people aboard the warship to explain things to them.

"Wow, this cannon doesn't look that impressive in the video, but standing right in front of it, the barrel is so thick!"

"This close-in weapon system (CIWS) was developed independently by our country and is also known as the Type 1130 CIWS. Its rate of fire is as high as 11000 rounds per minute, which is three times that of the American MK15 Vulcan CIWS." The major proudly patted the CIWS.

Hearing this, Zhang Ze and the others couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

This is truly a case of "when the cannons roar, gold pours in!"

"How much would it cost Captain Liu to build such a close-in weapon system?"

"The cannons aren't too expensive, around ten million, but the bullets are."

Each bullet costs 1 yuan; firing 166 bullets per second would cost 16.6 yuan.

Huang Jingyu "destroyed 1000 million worth of bullets in just one minute! That's real money burning! You have to admire that!"

Hai Qing: "This is just the most inconspicuous close-in weapon system on the warship. All those missile launchers and radars cost more money than this."

"No wonder they say the navy is an aristocratic branch of the military, and poor countries can't afford to support a navy. Today I truly understand that feeling," Zhang Ze remarked.

After disembarking from the warship, the group headed to the Zhanjiang naval base.

On New Year's Eve, Zeng Lai got up early to prepare breakfast.

Find a nice outfit and put together a look for Zhang Ze.

"You have a performance today, so make sure to protect your voice before going on stage, okay? And remember to drink plenty of water!"

"When you encounter veteran artists backstage, be sure to greet them!"

He had repeatedly and patiently entrusted her with these instructions.

"Yeah, I'll pay attention!" He drank a bowl of porridge and put on a coat with Zeng Lai's help.

This year, because of his appearance on the Spring Festival Gala, Zhang Ze's parents also came to Beijing to celebrate the New Year.

Gao Hongxia, wearing an apron, was kneading dough to make dumplings. Looking at him, she said, "Go ahead and don't worry! I'll be waiting for you to eat dumplings when you get back tonight!"

The elderly couple were overjoyed that their son was finally going to be on CCTV's Spring Festival Gala!

When I arrived at CCTV, there were already many people queuing up.
