Yi Yan is still skeptical, he wants to know now whether the director of the "Sea of Fire" crew is the reporter he invited, and then he will say this paragraph himself, so Yi Yan asked Director Zhang: "Director Zhang, with your experience, tell me, is this a scene, or is it really a reporter interviewed in the past, or is it really the director of the "Sea of Fire" crew prepared in advance?"

Director Zhang looked at Yi Yan and was silent for a few seconds, constantly thinking in his heart, why does Yi Yan care so much about Gu Linxiao now, isn't he the Gu Linxiao he only met after becoming a martial arts stand-in? A person would care so much about a stranger, right? Shouldn't it be? Will there be a special relationship?

So, Director Zhang asked: "Yi Yan, why do you care so much about Gu Linxiao, as if this person has a great relationship with you." ”

Suddenly, Yi Yan didn't know how to speak, he couldn't tell Director Zhang that he was the Gu Linxiao, and he was the Gu Linxiao who disappeared during the filming of "Sea of Fire", right? Not only that, even if Yi Yan said this, would Director Zhang believe it? How could there be such a strange thing in the world?

At this time, Xia Zhixia played a round for Yi Yan and said: "Uncle Zhang, that's the case, when Yi Yan arrived at our crew, I told him about Gu Linxiao, because Gu Linxiao was a former gold medal martial artist in the southern country, and what Yi Yan is doing now is a martial arts stand-in, so Yi Yan is very concerned about himself, so why don't you tell him." After saying that, Xia Zhixia looked at Director Zhang with a smile.

Since childhood, Director Zhang has cared for Xia Zhixia like his own little daughter, because Director Zhang has been the only child in the family since he was a child, and he has no heirs, plus Xia Zhixia is so cute, although the age difference between the two is six or seven years old, Director Zhang's father-daughter friendship with Xia Zhixia is very strong.

Yi Yan listened to Xia Zhixia calling Director Zhang Uncle over and over again, but looking at the age of the two of them, there is not much difference between the two people? Why does Xia Zhixia always call Director Zhang Uncle Zhang? Could it be that Director Zhang looks young, in fact, Director Zhang is already very old?

Yi Yan kept guessing the reason for the matter in his heart, but after thinking about it carefully, it was said that this shouldn't be, it was really incomprehensible.

Director Zhang said to Xia Zhixia: "Oh? You told him the story of Gu Linxiao? I want to hear what you said?" Director Zhang knew that Xia Zhixia cared very much about Gu Linxiao, as for whether Xia Zhixia liked Gu Linxiao, Director Zhang didn't know, he could only guess, and didn't get a real answer from Xia Zhixia's mouth, and Xia Zhixia never said it.

Director Zhang said to Xia Zhixia, and the way he smiled evilly made Xia Zhixia feel very embarrassed, but what could it be? Anyway, the people around him knew that he had already cared about Gu Linxiao, and he had already liked Gu Linxiao, besides, Yi Yan also knew, it didn't matter.

Xia Zhixia said: "I said to Yi Yan that Gu Linxiao is the gold medal martial artist in the south, and his father is the former actor in the south, Gu Linxiao's acting skills are very superb, he is not only one of the few people in the south who can enter the transformation realm, not to mention that Gu Linxiao can enter the transformation realm, even if he is a current actor-level character, it is even more difficult to enter the transformation realm."

At the same time, Gu Linxiao is a very popular person, if you find out so many people from all the well-known actors in the south, I want to say, what I can say, except for the current actor, is Gu Linxiao. ”

Director Zhang smiled slightly, lowered his head, thinking that this smile was smiling at himself, and like smiling at Xia Zhixia, Director Zhang said: "All this you said is just your thoughts, do you think that Gu Linxiao is a very well-known person in the south, but some people don't think so, I'm afraid that what you said is biased, right? I don't know why you praise Gu Linxiao so much, is it just the kind of fans who have idols?"

Director Zhang laughed after finishing speaking.

Xia Zhixia suddenly, the pride on his face just now suddenly turned into a serious face, and he asked Director Zhang: "Isn't it right? Am I wrong about this matter? I said that Gu Linxiao is a very well-known person in the southern country, and he is a very well-known person who is sad." ”

Director Zhang was very helpless and said: "Yes, yes, yes! I just joked, if it is popularity, although Gu Linxiao's popularity is not particularly famous among the audience, to be honest, he is not as famous as the actor, but if it is said that he is as well-known as a first-line actor, Gu Linxiao is even better."

It can be said that the popularity of Nanguo can be divided into four levels, the first level is the popularity of the actor level, which is basically a household name, and the second level of popularity is Gu Linxiao's popularity, he is second to the actor, but he is higher than the first-line actors. The third kind of popularity is the popularity of first-line actors, that is, many people know it, but it can't be known to everyone, basically 80% or 90% of young people in the south know it.

The fourth kind of popularity is the popularity of second-tier actors, almost fifty or sixty percent of young people in the south know it, and they have a certain fan base, and they are also the ones who like hype the most, such as the summer in front of me. ”

Director Zhang said as he looked at Yi Yan, and suddenly, Yi Yan burst into laughter, "So, Xia Zhixia still likes hype?"

If Xia Zhixia's face was expressionless and serious just now, then his face is a little dark now, looking at Yi Yan, his eyes have been angry with him.

Director Zhang couldn't help laughing and said, "I didn't mean that, this is what you said, you have to be careful, if you provoke our eldest lady, you won't be able to eat and walk around, hahahaha." ”

rose to continue to add: "Of course, the popularity I am talking about, this is just what people in our circle say, if you say it from the perspective of the public, there is also the popularity of third-tier actors, their popularity is not particularly high, but this part of the people must be the hardest working people, because they know that their popularity is not high, so they need to use more efforts to make up for their popularity."

In addition to the popularity of this third-tier actor, the remaining fourth-line, fifth-line, then there is no popularity, if you don't dig deep into them, I don't know that there are such actors, in fact, we as directors sometimes like third-tier to fifth-tier actors. ”

"Oh, why is that? Shouldn't it be an A-list actor to bring more box office to the film?" Yi Yan asked.

Director Zhang replied: "Generally speaking, there are two kinds of people who like to use first-line actors and second-line actors, the first is older directors, they like to use these people, whether they are famous or not, because these people are actors who already have acting skills, and they are actors who have been trained by others, they don't need to have too much experience at all, as long as the script in their hands is delivered to them, they naturally know how to perform."

The second type of person is not a very capable director, the director I am talking about here is not very capable, and it has nothing to do with popularity, that is, his ability is indeed not very, very strong, and he does not belong to the top directors in the south, this kind of director They very much need high-box office movies, so they especially want to cooperate with first-line actors and second-line actors, so that first-line actors and second-line actors have a certain amount of traffic, and they all have certain fans.

Therefore, there are not a few audiences who like to watch their movies, so that the movies of these directors will have a relatively high box office, of course, when I was young, I liked to work with first-line actors and second-tier actors, but now I don't like it. ”

Yi Yan asked, "Why?" Between third-tier actors and fifth-tier actors, their acting skills shouldn't be very high, right?"

"You're wrong. Director Zhang said: "The first-line actors and second-line actors I just told you are all judged by popularity, not by ability, if you look at it in terms of ability, these actors are not bad, they just lack an opportunity, or they have no stalks, no scandals, and they can't find a topic on them, so they won't be famous."

Whether you are famous or not has something to do with ability, but it has nothing to do with ability.

Why do I like to use actors from the third tier to the fifth tier? It's because I want to train my own actors, think about it, old director, how many movies can he direct, he doesn't need mature actors, what can he use? At this age, it's impossible to train his own actors, right?

Besides, these first-line actors, second-line actors, also like to shoot with old directors, and it can be said that they have a mutually beneficial and symbiotic relationship.

I'm different, I have to have my own actors now, I have to be able to control these actors myself, and I can guarantee that one day, when I need actors urgently, these people will come to help me from anywhere in the world.

If I can promote them, if I can give them a chance, so that they can go to the next level, so that they can have a greater reputation, you say, won't these people thank me? They will, so I want to train them, and they can help me when I need them in the future. It's as simple as that. ”
