Chapter 213: Nonsensical Sin
Just after the Spring Festival, "The Saint of Gambling" began to be busy filming, most of the filming was still in Hong Kong, as for the places involving casinos, it is still too early for the current plot shooting, but Xu Ziming has already made arrangements tomorrow.
But the filming of "The Saint of Gambling" did not go as smoothly as expected, not to mention the delay plan for the Spring Festival, there are ......
"Click! Xingzi, your expression is wrong, don't be afraid to exaggerate too much, let it be, there are beautiful women around you to watch, you should ...... Cowardice with bravery!"
At this moment, it is a shot of a casino tycoon being attacked by Hong Guang's people in a white villa, and his subordinates suffered heavy losses, and Ah Xing's uncle and nephew were forced to flee everywhere by the killer on the second floor.
Zhou Xingchi wanted to speak and stopped, Wang Jindang was also angry this time, but he didn't expect Zhou Xingchi to like to add some extra actions too much.
Zhou Xingchi pursed his lips and said stubbornly: "Director again!"

"Click! Again, the expression just now is the most exaggerated, convergence! convergence! understand?"
"Director, I ......", a trace of disappointment and helplessness flashed in Zhou Xingchi's eyes.
Wang Jin waved his hand directly, his stiff expression was very penetrating, and Liu Zhenwei, who was the assistant director this time, asked Zhou Xingchi to come over.
Zhou Xingchi immediately played, most of the crew looked at him, and at this moment, most of the smile on Zhou Xingchi's face just now had dispersed. It may be that Zhou Xingchi feels that his performance makes everyone a little disgusted.
To put it bluntly, Zhou Xingchi is unsociable, just a few days after the filming of "The Saint of Gambling" started, many employees of the crew took the initiative to greet him, and now few people communicate with him.
Because of Zhou Xingchi's competitive performance, many people have discussed him in private, thinking that Zhou Xingchi is a villain, and there is no one in his eyes.
In fact, Zhou Xingchi looks down on them, but thinks that his understanding of movie comedy should be more realistic, so that it can be more appropriate, but everyone can't stand him.
The misunderstanding is magnified little by little, anyway, Zhou Xingchi has now become the most unpopular person in the crew.
"Xingzai, don't add drama casually when filming. β
When Zhou Xingchi was about to start explaining again, Wang Jin responded coldly: Okay, I don't want to listen to the explanation, so I'll start shooting again immediately. β
......
"Forget it! That's all for today's scene, I've said it many times, I don't need your exaggerated expression now!" Wang Jin covered his forehead, and Zhou Xingchi's nonsensical style began to play, but the other party couldn't tell the time at all, and a gunfight scene lasted for an hour, and it took a day to shoot.
This made Wang Jin afraid of being delayed by the other party, and he couldn't finish filming in March. This is an insult to the reputation of Wang Jin's fast gunner.
Zhou Xingchi stood up from the corner of the sofa in a daze and argued: "Director, I think I just performed very well, if I am forced into a corner by the enemy with bullets, I may die in the next second, this is the expression!"
Wang Jin was a little crazy, and it was this self-righteous expression again, he couldn't control his anger anymore, and roared: "If it weren't for Ah Ming's request, I wouldn't have helped you shoot!"
"Director, don't be angry, don't be angry!" Wu Mengda was shocked when he saw this situation, and hurriedly poured a glass of water for Wang Jin, "The Saint of Gambling" is a work that Wu Mengda is counting on to become popular again, Wang Jin said that if he doesn't shoot, then it's okay, he and Zhou Xingchi both have to finish playing.
Wu Mengda then turned to Zhou Xingchi's position, and comforted us with kind words: "Xingzai, Mr. Xu has given us such a good platform, we should cherish it! Acting skills or something, when you become famous, even if you add more drama, ordinary directors don't dare to say anything." β
Zhou Xingchi's face turned red, it was obvious that he was too impulsive just now, and now thinking of Wu Mengda's words, it was very insightful. Wu Mengda is an old actor, and his qualifications are there, Zhou Xingchi will understand Wu Mengda's words to some extent.
Xu Ziming personally recommended himself as the protagonist, which is already rare, and he really has to cherish this opportunity.
However, Zhou Xingchi is even more wooden, even if he is very talented, he is indeed a person who is not good at expressing himself, and he is unwilling to admit his mistakes in person.
So Wang Jin and Zhou Xingchi were so stiff, Wang Jin had the idea of driving Zhou Xingchi away for the first time, the more angry he was, the more calm he was, and finally waved his hand to the crew.
The crew hurriedly put down the props and went downstairs in a swarm, and there were only a few leading actors such as Wang Guxian and Wu Mengda on the entire second floor, and the atmosphere was weird and deserted.
Wang Guxian felt very boring, he thought that the filming could be filmed smoothly, but he didn't expect to toss and toss, which was very disappointing.
Bidding farewell to the director, she hurried straight down the stairs, and because of the hurry, her legs and feet stumbled, and she fell into the arms of the figure that burst in.
After being helped up by the other party, Wang Guxian recognized the other party clearly, her personality was straightforward, and her shyness passed in an instant: "Mr. Xu is good." β
Xu Ziming looked at Wang Guxian and said with a smile: "How is the filming of "Gambling Saint". β
Wang Guxian had just come from Taiwan, and he was not very proficient in Cantonese, so he didn't expect Xu Ziming to communicate with him in Chinese, and said happily: "The shooting is stumbling." β
Xu Ziming plans to go to Shanghai in a few days to inspect the local real estate market, thinking that it may take half a month before and after going to the mainland, Xu Ziming is also quite worried about the filming progress of "The Saint of Gambling".
got Wang Guxian's reply, and he guessed correctly.
He came directly to the second floor, and when the group of people present saw Xu Ziming's sudden arrival, they all came to their senses, Wang Jin came directly to him, grabbed Xu Ziming's shoulders, pulled him aside, and began to prepare to start complaining about Zhou Xingchi's various performances today.
"If you have anything, just say it, right?" Xu Ziming looked at Wang Jin with an aggrieved expression and said curiously.
Wang Jinqiang smiled: "It's nothing, it's been a long time since I've been refuted in public like this, and I'm a little uncomfortable." β
Since Wang Jin helped manage Mingjia Film Company, the company has grown day by day. also gradually developed authority, and the employees under him never dared to speak loudly in front of him, that is, popular movie stars like Zhou Yunfa and Andy Lau, most of the time they were submissive, doing things and filming according to his instructions. was so provoked by Zhou Xingchi today that he almost went up and kicked the other party's feet.
Xu Ziming smiled after hearing this: "Actually, it's nothing, which director hasn't encountered such a situation, there is something wrong with Xingzai." You are also at fault. β
Wang Jin pinched his chin and said unhappily: "What's wrong with me? You know, if it weren't for Zhou Xingchi's strong request to be the protagonist by you, I would definitely change him now. β
Hearing Wang Jin's idea of changing roles, Xu Ziming's pleasant expression disappeared instantly, and he immediately said with a straight face: "Ah Jin, don't speak too impulsively, Xingzi's acting talent, you and I can't see it, but he himself will definitely have achievements in the future, and he has his own set of performances." There are many things that we can predict, but there are people who are really talented and practical, and we have to learn to include them to some extent. β
Wang Jin smiled coldly and said dissatisfiedly: "Ah Ming, if you favor Zhou Xingchi like this, sooner or later, he will become more arrogant and have no one in his eyes." β
Xu Ziming just wanted to turn around and walk towards Zhou Xingchi, but he was taken aback by Wang Jin's words like pouring cold water on his head.
This question made Xu Ziming worth pondering, so he talked about it with Wang Jin again.
"Hey, Mr. Xu is back too. β
Liu Zhenwei is the assistant director, he just came back from the bathroom, saw Xu Ziming and Wang Jin chatting, and came over to Wu Mengda's location.
Wu Mengda sighed and told Liu Zhenwei about what happened before.
After listening to Wu Mengda's account of what happened, Liu Zhenwei looked at Zhou Xingchi with hatred and blamed: "Ah Xing, you are in trouble!"
Zhou Xingchi was shocked, he also thought that Liu Zhenwei would comfort him and help him persuade Wang Jin, thinking that Xu Ziming was pulled by Wang Jin as soon as he came, which made him really feel a taste of a catastrophe.
Liu Zhenwei said: "Mr. Wang is not only the director of the crew, but also a shareholder of the company, and has an excellent relationship with Mr. Xu. β
Wu Mengda was dumbfounded and said: "Director, it's not that serious, Mr. Xu has always valued Xingzai very much, and there is no reason to offend Xingzai like this for Wang Jin." β
Zhou Xingchi listened very unpleasantly in his heart, Liu Zhenwei patted Zhou Xingchi on the shoulder and comforted: "Xingzai, I know you have a lot of ideas, but this time I really can't do anything, I will persuade Mr. Wang, you have to be mentally prepared." β
Zhou Xingchi froze in place, and muttered, "Be mentally prepared?
Wu Mengda said worriedly: "Xingzai, do you think Mr. Wang will change his role?"
"Change the role?" Zhou Xingchi suddenly realized, watched Xu Ziming and Wang Jin go out together again, and suddenly felt five thunders hit the top, and sat on the sofa.
