Chapter 51: Men Can't Say No

Dark clouds are falling.

The set of "Clever Little Don't Understand".

So far, all the main creators have arrived.

"Prepare everyone!"

"Photography OK!"

"The lights are ok!"

"Recording ready!"

β€œaction!”

After shouting from the south and the north, the last scene of the day started filming.

This scene is about a restaurant in Meilong Town, Longfeng Shop, and the owner Li Fengjie is a beautiful and talented woman about 20 years old. I don't know how to fall in love with Sister Feng at first sight, in order to win her favor, I don't know how to use my spare time to be a volunteer junior in the Longfeng shop, of course Ying Ziyan will not give up the opportunity, and he teased him several times, so that he can't cry or laugh if he doesn't know how to cry or laugh.

At this time, there was a case of ship hijacking, a young man covered in blood came to Meilong Town, and he didn't understand that he stole Sister Feng's underwear, and beat him, and the young man was injured and fell.

Then, I didn't understand that I found out that this person had an admission book for "Guanzi Academy", and it was Zhu Zheng, a transfer student who transferred from other places, and I didn't understand that I had no choice but to take him in the temple where I lived......

"Okay!"

Jin Demao shouted.

Zhu Zheng, the transfer student in the play, is Zhu Houzhao played by Lin Xiaoguang, probably because he only joined the group today and started filming the first scene, as soon as Lin Xiaoguang was on the play, he cooperated with the big star Zhang Weijian, and he was still a little pressured in his heart, his performance in front of the camera was neither good nor bad, in short, he was a little bit out of state.

After filming, Lin Xiaoguang was about to call it a day and go back, Zhang Weijian walked over unhurriedly, looked directly at Lin Xiaoguang, and his deep eyes looked a little cold.

This look made Lin Xiaoguang's heart tense slightly.

After a pause, Zhang Weijian spoke, and his voice was low and indifferent: "Xiaoguang, I've been paying attention to you for a long time." ”

Lin Xiaoguang was stunned and stood still.

"Brother Jian?"

The moment the two looked at each other, Zhang Weijian said in half-baked Mandarin: "Come here, I have something to tell you." ”

"Brother Jian, what are you looking for me, is it because I am not behaving well?" you can just say ......" Lin Xiaoguang said worriedly.

Seeing that Lin Xiaoguang was still self-aware, Zhang Weijian was not polite, and said bluntly: "Well, you can't perform well today, you are not confident enough, too restrained, and not enough to let go, you try to relax in the future." ”

Lin Xiaoguang nodded and asked, "Brother Jian, should you re-shoot that part just now?"

"No, no, the director has already shouted, you just need to pay attention to yourself in the future. Zhang Weijian said.

Lin Xiaoguang said sincerely: "Okay, Brother Jian, I promise that I will pay attention to it in the future, and I will not be as stateless as today." ”

Although Zhang Weijian has a baby face and looks young, he is already forty years old, and he is a generation behind Lin Xiaoguang, so he unconsciously used the attitude of the elders to the younger generations, and also smiled slightly, and said: "That's right, it's a good thing for young people to be modest...... And Xiaoguang, I heard the director say, you used to play tricks?"

Lin Xiaoguang sweated, and said in his heart, what's wrong with running tricks? Look down on it? You jumped too fast on this topic, and said in a low voice: "Yes, when I first came to Hengcheng last year, I ran for a few months. ”

"It's only been a few months? Do you know how many years I've been running tricks before?" Zhang Weijian sold.

Who knows...... Lin Xiaoguang wrote a question mark in his head: "...... I don't know, how many years?"

"I'll be honest with you, I've been running for eight years before. When Zhang Weijian said this, he obviously had a proud tone.

"Really fake Brother Jian, have you run for eight years?" Lin Xiaoguang said in surprise.

Eight years, how many eight years are there in life? Not to mention the most precious eight years of life to play tricks, it's not worth it......

Lin Xiaoguang's question, Zhang Weijian didn't answer immediately, but turned to look left and right and said to him: "Xiaoguang, do you know when I debuted?"

always asks this kind of question, where would Lin Xiaoguang know, guessing in his heart that he probably debuted in the early 90s, and asked: "Have you been ten years old?"

Zhang Weijian said lightly: "I participated in the first Hong Kong Rookie Singing Competition in 1982, and the champion that year was Sister Mei Anita Mui, how many years do you say I debuted?"

I went, in 1982, Zhang Weijian actually debuted at the same time as Anita Mui......

That Zhang Weijian can be called the "ancient beast" of the entertainment industry......

Lin Xiaoguang said with emotion: "Brother Jian, it turns out that you have been debuting for so long, just count it, it's almost 20 years, right?"

Zhang Weijian nodded and asked rhetorically, "Are you interested in hearing about my previous experience?"

Lin Xiaoguang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "Of course, I'm very interested, Brother Jian, you say, I'll listen." ”

Zhang Weijian raised his eyebrows lightly, and said eloquently: "When the first rookie singing competition, I was still in school, but I also participated, but I only entered the top 30, the second champion in 83 was Lu Fang, Lu Fang, you know, right? He was once known as a "double star" male singer with Jacky Cheung, you can imagine his popularity and strength, in the second session, I still participated in the competition, but I quit halfway, and still returned in vain. ”

Zhang Weijian's original mellow bass, at this moment, Lin Xiaoguang sounded a little hoarse, but he listened to it with relish.

"By '85, when I was in the third session, I finally had my own world, and I was out of school at that time, and I was 19 years old, the same age as you, right...... Looks like it's a little smaller than you. I won the Gold Award and the Most Outstanding Typhoon Award with Leslie Cheung's song "Love Cross", successfully signed a contract with TVB, and started my acting career, which can also be called "eight years of running tricks", yes, eight years, eight years. ”

Lin Xiaoguang asked puzzledly: "Why? You won the championship of the rookie competition, which is logically very promising, why doesn't TVB praise you? It's really hard to figure out......

Zhang Weijian didn't answer immediately, and continued: "After winning the championship, in fact, I am the same as you think, I have begun to sit at home and wait for it to become popular, and I still wear sunglasses or something when I go out, because the first champion Anita Mui became popular, and the second champion Lu Fang also became popular, this time it will be my turn, there is no reason not to become popular, but it backfired, what I was waiting for was not to become popular, but to be an eight-year trick." ”

made up the picture of Zhang Weijian pretending to go out with sunglasses, Lin Xiaoguang suddenly wanted to laugh, but he still pretended to be very serious, put on a serious thinking expression, and listened to him silently.

"I can't figure it out, can I? I couldn't figure it out at the time......

Lin Xiaoguang nodded: "Hmm...... Brother Jian, can you tell me what the reason is?"

Zhang Weijian said: "I also want to know, I want to know why I am not praised, so I went to ask people later, and the manager of TVB told me, well, to put it simply, I just think that I am small, dark and thin, and my appearance is not outstanding enough, and I lack the need to cultivate." ”

When Zhang Weijian spoke, Lin Xiaoguang quietly glanced at him, didn't dare to say that he was short to his face, and said something good: "No, Brother Jian, I think you are quite white, really, and your appearance is quite high, how can they say that, they have no eyes at all." ”

Zhang Weijian smiled bitterly: "It's not that they have no eyes, when you Brother Jian and I first debuted, we were indeed dark and thin, but I want to say ...... What word did you just say, appearance? Appearance, right? Do you use the word "appearance" to evaluate other people's appearance? Why don't I seem to have heard of it......?"

Lin Xiaoguang smiled and said, "It has just become popular recently, Brother Jian, you don't know that it's normal, the meaning of appearance is the score that describes a person's appearance." ”

Zhang Weijian said: "Yes, it's this appearance, my appearance is really still there, and later, I am a little whiter, and after I have meat on my face, my appearance is even more handsome than the current Andy Lau." ”

Lin Xiaoguang smiled, nodded, and said in his heart, this Brother Jian is very witty and humorous.

"By the way, Brother Jian, what happened later? Did you make "Young Hero Fang Shiyu" popular?"

"How can it be so fast, "Young Hero Fang Shiyu" was filmed two years ago, and it was still in the eighties of the last century. Zhang Weijian shook his head and smiled bitterly, and then said: "In my eight-year career, I am almost so poor that I have no money to eat, and I often have to rely on my girlfriend to help ......."

Lin Xiaoguang, as a person who has come over, naturally knows about the sorrow of the extras, but he is more curious about another thing: "What about your girlfriend?

Zhang Weijian shook his head: "No, in the end, she couldn't stick to the day when I became popular......"

Lin Xiaoguang sighed: "Alas, it's a pity. ”

"Eight years, eight years of relationship, just in 1990, the year before I was about to turn over, what my ex-friend said to me, I still remember clearly. ”

Lin Xiaoguang hurriedly asked, "What did she tell you at the time?"

"She told me that she didn't want to marry a rich man, otherwise she wouldn't have waited for me for so many years, but...... I was so insecure for her, I couldn't even pay for my monthly living expenses, and I had to borrow money to get by, I begged her, begged her to give me another year, she didn't agree, so we broke up like this......".

Regarding the relationship between Zhang Weijian and his ex-girlfriend, apart from regret, Lin Xiaoguang didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh with emotion: "Brother Jian, I've been with you for eight years, which shows that she loves you, don't be too sad." ”

The ex-girlfriend was kind to her, Zhang Weijian was noncommittal, but was silent for a while, and seemed to feel a little guilty in his heart.

But Lin Xiaoguang was a little puzzled, and said in his heart, Zhang Weijian has been running for eight years, why did he suddenly say that he was popular, this is too illogical, there must be some opportunities, so he asked again: "Brother Jian, your company has not praised you for eight years, why did you suddenly become popular?"

Mentioning this incident, Zhang Weijian said emotionally and a little proudly: "You may not know that there were two kinds of economists in tvb at that time, one was a senior manager A, and the other was a relatively low-level and poor manager B. ”

Lin Xiaoguang was happy, he never expected that Zhang Weijian usually looks serious and silent, but he is quite funny, and he actually knows how to indulge in it.

"One morning, manager A of the company stopped in front of me and asked me why I didn't answer the call from manager B. Then I deliberately asked him, is there something wrong? I said, "Okay, let's sit down and talk," and Manager A was blindsided, because my level was not enough for him to negotiate, but he couldn't refuse in person. ”

Lin Xiaoguang couldn't help laughing: "Haha, Brother Jian, you are too bad, what happened then?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Weijian also smiled proudly and continued: "Later, the two of us sat together in the cafΓ©, at that time, the artists that the company focused on cultivating were all signed for five years, Manager A said for a few hours to persuade me to sign the contract, I didn't squeak, and finally the manager was impatient, thinking that I didn't want to do it, so he asked me, the company only asked you to sign a three-year contract, are you still too long?"

"And how do you answer?"

"I finally told him that I wanted to sign for five years, and the manager was very surprised and relieved, so he carefully looked at me, a kid he had never paid attention to before, and asked me, why?"

"Yes, why?" Lin Xiaoguang became more and more addicted the more he listened, feeling that it was a pity that Zhang Weijian was only an actor, and he should still be a screenwriter.

I have been working in the company for eight years, and I have acted in everything, and I am only missing a chance to play a leading role, as long as I am given this opportunity, I will definitely help you make a lot of money in the future. ”

Lin Xiaoguang smiled and sighed, at this moment, he admired Zhang Weijian is heartfelt eyes, and said in his heart, this person is really ambitious, he has been running for eight years, and he is still so domineering, he is not afraid of others looking down on him at all, no wonder he is so popular now.

"Brother Jian, after you say this, what is the manager's reaction?"

"What's the reaction?" Zhang Weijian deliberately paused before continuing: "The manager looked at me, a kid who has been running for eight years, but has a big tone, not only did not laugh, but also appreciated it, he asked me, what do you ask for the salary? I said, you take a blank contract for me to sign, and you will write the salary after I sign it, and besides, I will only write two words on the contract?"

Lin Xiaoguang: "That's okay? The contract only writes two words, which two words?"

Zhang Weijian slowly spit out two words in his mouth: "Hold me!"

Lin Xiaoguang was stunned and asked in disbelief: "Praise me?

Zhang Weijian nodded meaningfully, without explaining much to Lin Xiaoguang, but his face was full of determination and pride.

"And how did he react? Did he really agree to your contract?"

That's right, the manager looked at me deeply at the time and said, I have been doing this business for many years, and I have never seen a contract that says "support me", today I believe in your ability, please believe in my ability, I will do my best to help you. ”

I'll go, hearing this, Lin Xiaoguang suddenly felt that the goosebumps on his body were about to rise, it was so inspirational!

"Two weeks after the contract was signed, I received a call from the company, telling me that the company will support you this year, from today, the company's TV station, every night in prime time, eight o'clock, there will be a 30-second commercial, only to promote you - Zhang Weijian, this call, I have not forgotten until now, and then, two weeks later, I received a notice that my first actor started. ”

In the past, Zhang Weijian was a person who came over, and he has experienced several ups and downs in his life, and he said it lightly, but Lin Xiaoguang listened to it with enthusiasm.

In fact, as Zhang Weijian said, in 1991, he starred in "Old Friends and Ghosts" for the first time.

The film became a big hit in Hong Kong, and it also became popular with Zhang Weijian, everyone with ability lacks a chance, but the opportunity will not fall from the sky, and you need to fight for it yourself.

Zhang Weijian did it, and at the same time, isn't this his accumulation?

Still in 1991, in the mythological drama "Sun and Moon Sword", Zhang Weijian and Guo Jinan played the sun and the moon gods respectively, and the song "True and False" is still missed and liked by many people.

At the same time, it also made Zhang Weijian popular, so popular that the whole of Hong Kong was talking about the boy who was still very immature back then, when Zhang Weijian saw the owner of the small restaurant who always gave him food, the two smiled similarly, this little boss knew that he finally had this day, Zhang Weijian knew that the little boss understood how hard he had been for so many years, and he survived.

Just when Lin Xiaoguang was still savoring the chicken soup, Zhang Weijian suddenly spoke: "Xiaoguang, I told you so much today, do you understand what I mean?"

Lin Xiaoguang was stunned, pondered for a moment, and then said calmly: "It seems that I understand, but I don't seem to understand it a little!

Seeing Lin Xiaoguang humbly being taught, Zhang Weijian said earnestly: "Xiaoguang, from the first time I met you in the hotel, I felt that your appearance was very good, and I felt that you had a chance to be popular, but I don't know why, your eyes always showed a lack of confidence, with your conditions, it shouldn't have been like this, until I played against you today, I didn't understand that you may not be confident enough in your group performance, and feel that you are not as good as those actors from professional classes, but I tell you now, there is really no need!" Whether you are a group performer or a professional class, you are a man, a man can't say no, you have to be confident, just work hard to be yourself!"
