……

Cao Fangfang, who drank wine, said a lot, and spit out the depression and complaints in his heart.

Tian Anbang is rare and has no gags.

In fact, Cao Fangfang's depression is easy to understand, he has the ability to write scripts, and he has the vision of his previous life as a support, so he originally thought well...... debuted first, used his hard power in acting skills to make a name for himself, and then he could create scripts when he was free, and then watched these words be transformed into film and television dramas with satisfaction, and he could play his favorite role in his favorite stories as he liked.

Although he was marginal in his previous life, he was also an insider, and he knew that in the entertainment industry, fame was money, but not everything. As long as you don't get mixed into the absolute top of the pyramid and become one of those few real superstars, you don't have the conditions to choose scripts and roles as you like.

More and more A-list stars have opened their own studios, also because they don't want to just make a selected product in this market, but want to increase their voice and choice...... Unfortunately, this wave not only failed to increase the diversity of works in the market, but on the contrary, became more and more assimilated.

They can't be blamed either...... Artists have increased their status as businessmen, so they have to think more about profits, and profits need to be hedging, and innovation itself is the biggest risk.

Cao Yifang even thinks more, he has a lot of roles that he likes and is eager to play, and sometimes he even thinks if he can take the essence of some fantasy literature unique to China, remove its dross, and put it on the big screen in the form of a complete movie script.

Of course, he also knew that it would not be so smooth sailing, but he didn't expect to be stuck in a link that he hadn't thought about so quickly.

He discussed it with Chen Yaman, with the online editor, and now with Tian Anbang, an old screenwriter, is also discussing.

Editor Ran Nuo is right, if he is a star, on the Internet or directly contact the publishing house, to publish the pretender's good quality script, maybe it can have a certain hot market response.

But since the market cannot be distinguished, the relationship between his fame and popularity, from the perspective of rational investment, if the investor wants to choose a suitable film, why not directly choose a work created by an ordinary writer, and then choose a few high-traffic stars, so that the addition is effective.

And Rannuo told him that if it is not a long story, there is almost no possibility of becoming a popular IP with his ability...... That is, to throw away the halo of stardom, this book thrown on the market may not be able to make any waves.

That's the reality.

Tian Anbang only comforted him casually, and then couldn't help it, "Young man, don't you think you're lazy?"

"Huh?" Cao Fang didn't understand, maybe he drank a few more glasses, and his brain was a little muddy.

Are you lazy?

Not lazy!

I also work hard every day to exercise and study! The average sleep time is only six hours...... Of course, this may not be a big deal among artists.

Tian Anbang watched Cao Fang eat barbecue, drank half a bowl of porridge by himself, and lost his appetite, he seemed to have a little stomach pain, covered his stomach for a while, and listened to it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but say: "The road of being a popular star + being popular is wrong...... Well...... Or that is not wrong in itself, but there are many complexities in the adaptation, and excellent film and television works depend on all aspects...... If it's not all right, why do we have to bury our heads down this road? Can't we use the traditional way of thinking?"

Cao Fang didn't get the old man's train of thought: "A little traditional?

"What will a normal screenwriter do if he wants to sell his own script?" Tian Anbang slapped the table and said: "One film and television company after another to sell! Persuade the person in charge of the production and the investor who has the right to speak!"

Cao Fang was silent, he didn't think about it, but he ...... didn't think about it specifically, because he instinctively felt that it was too troublesome, and he was a star now.

Celebrities have such high incomes and such good resources, why do they have to work hard to follow the path of a small screenwriter...... For him, this is a thing that can be done easily, and if he can't do it, it won't hurt his bones.

Then he is really lazy.

"And you're not a small screenwriter, now you're famous, and you have more bargaining chips, right?" Tian Anbang came up with an idea: "You can even talk to someone from the film and television company, if they shoot your script, you can reduce the salary to star, no one in the TV series has signed a gambling agreement and a share or the like, but you can talk about it, the supplementary agreements are easy to write, and if the ratings can't reach much, you can get a low salary...... You can't get all the benefits without wanting to give anything. ”

Cao felt that he had been severely criticized.

Really.

Tian Anbang suddenly diverted the topic: "Hey, do you know Sima Yi's logo posture?"

Cao Fang looked up: "What...... Oh, the eagle looks at the wolf. ”

Tian Anbang said: "I'll take a look if you play it." ”

Cao Fangfang said depressedly: "What are you doing...... No. ”

"Play one. ”

"No, no, I don't like this character. ”

Tian Anbang said unhappily: "The chick who watches the sea doesn't like the vase Diao Chan either, but I asked her to play one when she was fine, and she played it, and Du Ruoxian's little Nizi is too, so is it, Xiao Xuanzi...... Alas, don't talk about him. Aren't you an actor, are you still shy to play an action expression? ”

Cao Fang looked around, there were few people in the store, and he didn't bother to argue with Tian Anbang, frowned, and casually made a fierce look.

Tian Anbang's face was expressionless, "You husky." ”

Cao Fangfang's mentality was a little collapsed at the moment, and he didn't want to play with the old man, but the old man came to provoke the law again: "They all say that your acting skills are good, and I think you are also in vain, and your ability to play on the spot is a mess......"

"Okay, good, come, come!" Cao Fang closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, imagining the appearance of the eagle foraging, slightly shrunk his neck, lowered his head, and then slowly opened his eyes, letting the fierce light flicker in it.

Tian Anbang looked at it for a while, and sighed regretfully: "I changed my mind, even if I have the right to cast, you are actually not suitable for this role now." ”

After speaking, he called the waiter to pay.

Cao Fangfang hasn't been criticized for his acting skills for a long time, and it's really a bit disturbing at this time, and after the two went out, he also asked: "Hey, although I'm not interested in this role...... But I have to defend my business skills, old man, you make it clear, why can't I?"

Tian Anbang turned around and looked at him seriously: "Look at you, you already regard acting skills as your business ability." ”

After speaking, while Cao Fang was stunned, he turned around and walked in the direction of the hotel.

"Hey! This is a description! That's right, it's originally a business ability!" Cao Yifang chased after him, the streets of the night market in the tourist area were not too few people, Tian Anbang shuttled among the tourists who came and went, Cao Yifang drank too much, and even trotted for a while before catching up with the old man.

Tian Anbang looked very tired, suddenly stopped, held his knees and gasped for a long time before pointing to his nose and saying, "You are like a ...... now It's like...... Former Liumeng...... Chen Xuanyi, you are talented, you are too comfortable, your performance is easy, but there is too much craftsmanship ......"

It's the second time I've heard someone comment on his performance for too much craftsmanship, Cao Fang is a little angry, practice makes perfect, there will naturally be craftsmanship, this is the case in all walks of life, this is not a bad thing.

"If you have craftsmanship, you can't play Sima Yi?"

"No, you don't have that in your eyes, maybe you can play all the emotions, but there's a lot of energy...... You can't play it well. ”

Tian Anbang just walked a few steps quickly, and then he kept panting, staring like a falcon with a pair of old eyes: "You young man, you have to get by...... No ambitions. ”

……

Back in the hotel suite, Cao Fang reflected for a long time.

Under the old man's gray eyebrows, those stoic but sharp eyes have always stayed in his mind and lingered.

I feel a little depressed, maybe I was criticized.

But he couldn't help but wonder if he had really become lazy.

Don't you have ambitions?

What was the ambition of the previous life? to become a big star.

In fact, that is not an ambition, because in his previous life, he just liked to perform, and wanted to become famous by the way, enjoying flowers and honors.

So after the fairy sword exploded, he felt very satisfied...... Those fans who crowded around autographed group photos, those highlights and program invitations, and media reports.

He knew that what Lao Tian said later was not only his performance, but also his actions in the script.

Because he has no ambition, he salts the fish, and everything can save effort, but things are not smooth sailing, and he doesn't think about how to solve it, but he is very wronged.

The last words of Lao Tian appeared in front of him.

What is Lao Tian's ambition?
