Chapter 307: If I could do it all over again
……
The photo of Miao Yingsong smashing the car that Chen Ya sent was screenshotted by her from the entertainment news, this matter itself is not a trivial matter, a second ancestor with a strong background, who is also a legal person of a film and television company, used this almost irrational way to smash the car of a second-tier male star.
In broad daylight, it's bright.
But of course Cao Fang didn't feel that smashing a car would be relieved, and he was in a good mood after seeing this picture, mainly because everything that had been carefully planned finally began to develop as expected, and this move was just an opportunity, representing that the first domino was finally pushed down.
Cao Fangfang was really worried that he might not have figured out Miao Yingsong's character, in case he was a troll who was fierce and only talked about kung fu, or he was a smart person who was out-of-pocket and gold-jade, then this matter might not achieve the desired effect.
Now that his mind has been decided, he is in a good state, he asked for six bottles of beer, and chatted with Li Rong and Feng Tian while drinking, and the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic.
The amount of alcohol between these two people is better than the other, Li Rong is a person full of rivers and lakes, he has come to the mainland to cooperate in a few plays, he is very unpleasant to the young actors in the mainland today, drank a bottle and a half, his face flushed and said in a rough voice: "I tell you, martial arts films are our biggest advantage, Hong Kong films are now in decline, I originally put my hope in the mainland, because there are rich people in the mainland, it stands to reason that it will not be bad, but I have cooperated in a few films, and I am about to be angry with those little actors." ”
Cao Fang will also echo a few words, Feng Tian is usually low-key, but at this time he just smiled and drank without commenting.
Li Rong scolded a few young artists who had cooperated in the circle, anyway, he didn't care if he offended people, and then recalled the golden years of Hong Kong films, and said with hatred: "Now, everyone still thinks that Hollywood is powerful, but we are still like this in martial arts films!"
He gave a thumbs up, but the corners of his mouth were disdainful: "Many directors don't dare to say, in fact, people have long learned it, Hollywood filmmakers are lying in the pile of money, but people are still more motivated than us, easier to learn than us, in the early nineties, our kung fu superstars went to Hollywood to develop, and became an instant hit, and immediately several kung fu instructors on Hong Kong Island were invited to Hollywood at a high price to teach them martial arts movements, and as a result, let's see now, how many Hong Kong Island pasts in the Hollywood team?
Cao Fang was in a good mood and smiled and continued: "I actually like to watch Hollywood blockbusters, but I don't think there are many elements of their kung fu now, and the fighting action is ...... How to say it, I still rely on fast editing, and there are more lens switches, and the whole is still not as smooth as ours. ”
"Fang Zai, you only know one thing. Li Rong blushed and shook his head, and shook the bottle of wine, "At that time, they admired that we could shoot action scenes so well, so a group of action drama directors watched almost every movie with the participation of Chinese kung fu stars, and movies with the guidance of our martial arts, I heard people say, they watched almost frame by frame, repeated research, and learned our set a long time ......ago."
Cao Fangfang was actually a little unconvinced, and asked, "Does that seem to be used not much in the movie?"
"I'm a rough person, I don't know what kind of movies they want to make, I just think that these foreigners have not been able to watch kung fu movies for a long time, and they think that the action that is too flashy is very fake, which may also be related to cultural differences. ”
Li Rong used chopsticks to pound the hot pot, his face full of regret: "But we can't lose the kung fu element, action movies are a major category of commercial films, and now they are not available, and the older generation of kung fu superstars can't hold up their bodies, but young actors can't bear the hardships......"
He raised his eyes and looked at Cao Fangfang: "You really should develop in this direction first, really." ”
Li Rong is a very practical person, but his overall understanding of the film and television industry is limited to a small kung fu circle, and his advice is indeed correct, but he can't use market analysis and future trend judgment to convince Cao Fangfang, just blindly sincere suggestions.
Cao Fangfang thought about it seriously, mainly because martial arts movements are indeed one of his major advantages, and it is not the first time that anyone has mentioned that he should develop in the direction of a kung fu star.
He said: "I will seriously consider this development direction, thank you Brother Rong for watching it." He raised his glass.
Li Rong still has something to do, and after eating, he almost said that he would leave first, and before leaving, he patted Cao Yifang on the shoulder, and persuaded him bitterly: "Remember Brother Rong's words, it must be true, there are no superstars in this era, you ......" Speaking of this, Li Rong touched his stomach and hit something that didn't know whether it was a burp or a wine burp, and smoked Cao Fangfang's face.
"I will definitely listen to Brother Rong's words, I have benefited a lot from the filming of this drama, and after this drama is released, I will also take a good look at whether my progress is obviously not obvious......"
Cao Fang sent him away with a smile, and then came back to sit down.
Feng Tian then chatted with Cao Yifang for a while, maybe he was not very familiar with Li Rong, Feng Tian didn't talk much just now, and after he left, the two exchanged acting experience and future development in a down-to-earth manner, Cao Yifang soon found out why he had an inexplicable sense of intimacy with this seemingly ordinary middle-aged actor.
Because he is simply a copy of himself in his previous life.
There are thousands of types of actors, and half of them are good-looking. Feng Tian's appearance can be said to be extremely ordinary, a person with a little face blindness, even if he eats with him a few times, he will probably not be recognized when he meets him next time.
Through recent contact, Cao Yifang knew that this old brother was actually from a professional class, but he did not go to a first-line performance school such as Chinese opera Beiying, but an art college in Jilin, Northeast China......
"No wonder. Cao Fangfang recalled the two brief scenes he had with him, and said: "It's obviously an ordinary character of a thousand households, and the description in the script is also very simple, but you can inexplicably perform a little joy, it probably has something to do with your experience of learning cross talk, right?"
"Definitely, that's how I position myself. ”
Feng Tian sighed with a smile: "I look like this, in fact, it's embarrassing to play anything, I can't play a role with a strong face, sometimes I work with a director several times, and he may not be able to recognize me when I look back...... I thought that if my play could make people laugh, maybe they would remember me. ”
Cao Fang actually wanted to help, but after thinking about it for a long time, Feng Tian's acting skills now can be regarded as entering the house, but he can only get a special supporting role at most, or the kind that has to hit the street in a few scenes.
Knowing that he didn't have a brokerage company, Cao Fang frowned and said, "That's ...... I turned around and asked the boss of my studio, our studio originally signed fewer artists, and a few days ago there was one less female artist, if I can sign you, with Boss Liu's network resources, at least it is much better than you fighting alone. ”
Feng Tian knew his own situation, but he actually didn't have hope, but Cao Fang said so, and he could only say politely: "That's too troublesome for you, it doesn't matter if it works out or not." Sometimes I feel that I feel very content to have a friend like you who can see my efforts and strength, and is willing to talk to me about acting. ”
In the face of Feng Tian, Cao Fang felt a little powerless, obviously there is no shortage of good actors like Feng Tian who focus on acting skills in the circle, but they can't be popular at all, so they will never represent the entertainment industry.
It is said that the entertainment industry is a puddle of dirty water, and the media reports all day long are either this derailment or the one who sucks du, but there are so many good actors with few hearts and desires, who will look at them more?
At the end of the dinner, it was time for the two to return to their respective lives, Feng Tian couldn't help but say more: "One side, buddy treats you as a true friend, so I have to persuade you...... You'd better take your temper, your business ability is so good, your appearance, voice, are all appreciated by the grandfather, and the opportunity also favors you, the right time and place are all on you, these are all envious of me, sometimes you still have to learn to keep a low profile, don't be too temperamental, people like Qiu Pi, why bother to be like him, and cause yourself trouble, right?"
Cao Fang was speechless, and after a while, he asked very seriously.
"Brother Feng, if you were given a chance to reincarnate, would you still live like this?"
Feng Tian wanted to laugh, but Cao Fang added: "Seriously, think about it, if you start all over again and give you the right time, place and people, you are still willing to live in this circle like this...... Womb?"
