In the evening, Zhang Ran sat in front of the computer and video chatted with Zhang Jingchu.

Zhang Jingchu's film "All the Nights in the World" was completed in early June and is now in the final stage. She told Zhang Ran that "All the Nights in the World" has been shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Tokyo Film Festival, and she will take the crew to Tokyo in October. Zhang Jingchu proudly announced, Comrade Zhang Ran, you used to take me to various activities, but this time I will take you!

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Zhang Ran said to Zhang Jingchu, opened the door and saw that it was Robert De Niro. Robert De Niro and Chen Daoming have a common characteristic, that is, they like to pull the director to discuss the script repeatedly, and every sentence and line likes to grind repeatedly. Zhang Ran knew that he must have come to talk about the script with him, brought him into the room, beckoned him to sit down, and asked, "Is there anything wrong with the lines?"

Robert De Niro glanced at Zhang Ran and said with a smile: "No problem, I'm here to talk to you." ”

Zhang Ran was a little surprised: "Okay, I don't know what you want to talk about?"

Robert De Niro coughed and said, "That emperor hot sauce is good." It's the best tasting hot sauce I've ever tasted, not too spicy, but tastes exceptionally good. ”

Zhang Ran was stunned, and then reacted, it was the old godmother, he felt funny in his heart, he said nonsense, but he didn't expect Lao Luo to take it seriously, and couldn't help but laugh: "Of course, China is a country of food, and this hot sauce is the favorite hot sauce of the Chinese emperor!"

Robert De Niro is a foodie, and when it comes to eating, he gushes a little endlessly: "I like this thing very much, it's so delicious!" In the past two days, I just felt that my mouth had no taste, so I dug a fork to eat it from time to time, but I didn't expect to eat a bottle of hot sauce like this, it tastes really good!"

Zhang Ran then understood the purpose of Robert De Niro's coming, it turned out that he wanted to let himself get him some more old godmothers, Zhang Ran felt funny in his heart, but unfortunately there are few Chinese here in Ireland, the supermarket did not see an old godmother selling, otherwise buy two pieces for you, so he said: "My wife will come over in a few days, and I will ask her to bring you two pieces when the time comes!"

Robert Deni Roma laughed, "Then don't forget!"

Sending Robert De Niro away, Zhang Ran was about to tell Zhang Jing the joke about the emperor's hot sauce for the first time, but he didn't expect the knock on the door to sound again. Zhang Ran had no choice but to put down the mouse he had just picked up and open the door again.

It's just that as soon as the door opened, Zhang Ran's brows furrowed.

Jing Tian stood at the door alone, fortunately, he was still dressed during the day, with no face facing the sky, and he had not deliberately dressed up, otherwise Zhang Ran would have closed the door directly.

But no matter what, it is very gossip for a girl to knock on the male director's door in the middle of the night, so Zhang Ran has a very cold attitude: "Is there anything wrong with you?"

Jing Tian saw Zhang Ran's disgusted face, and he didn't know where to make him unhappy, so he said honestly: "Teacher Zhang, I have already thought through the question you asked me at noon, I know what I want, but I also have a question I want to ask you." ”

Zhang Ran stared at Jing Tian for two seconds before saying, "This is not the place to talk, let's find a place to talk." ”

It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, and the hotel's café was closed, Zhang Ran took Jing Tian to the bar on the second floor, found a place to sit down, and asked for two glasses of juice.

After the juice was delivered, Zhang Ran held the cup, looked at Jing Tian, and said solemnly: "I know you really don't understand, but you must remember that in the future, in the crew, at night, especially at a later time, don't knock on the door of the male director, if you have anything to say, you must say it during the day, if there is really anything important, don't be alone, you must bring an assistant." ”

Jing Tian was a little confused, and said puzzledly: "Why?"

Zhang Ran said helplessly: "It's very difficult for an actor to get ahead, there are 300,000 in Beipiao alone, and there are even more in the country, even if you are from a professional class, it is very difficult to get ahead, so there are many girls who want to take a shortcut, sleep with the director, and exchange their bodies for important roles." What do they do? It's to knock on the director's door in the middle of the night. So, when a girl knocks on the door of the male director's room in the middle of the night, it is equivalent to telling the other party that I am here to find unspoken rules. ”

Jing Tian knew why Zhang Ran's face was so ugly just now, she didn't want Zhang Ran to see herself as a girl who slept with others casually, so how could she apprentice herself, so she quickly explained: "Teacher Zhang, I didn't mean that, I didn't know that I couldn't knock on the door at night." ”

Zhang Ran nodded slightly: "I know you really don't know, otherwise I wouldn't have told you this." The crew is a very complex group, there are three religions and nine streams, there are many bad people, and they have their own set of rules, these things may not necessarily be followed, but you should know the rest. After speaking, Zhang Ran told Jing Tian a lot of the rules of the crew, as well as some matters that need to be paid attention to.

It was the first time Jing Tian had heard someone say this to him, and he was extremely grateful: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang!"

Zhang Ran took a sip of the cup and said kindly: "Don't you have a question to ask me, you ask!"

After listening to Zhang Ran's words at noon, Jingtian began to wonder if she really liked acting, and if she wanted to be a simple drama actress, she really couldn't do it, after all, a young girl like her could put down the shining stage of the movie and choose drama?

Jing Tian thought about it for a long time in the house at night, and he didn't know what to do, so he called Bai Ling and told Bai Ling what Zhang Ran said. They met in Running Man and became good friends. Bai Ling said to her, Mr. Zhang is deliberately scaring you, and there is a problem with your understanding, Mr. Zhang is not saying that those who only act in dramas are good actors, not that drama actors must have higher acting skills than others, nor that they will not let you only act in film and television works. He once said to us that you should take a period of time to act in dramas every few years to cheer up your acting career, and acting in dramas requires actors to ponder and rehearse repeatedly for several months, and in this process, acting skills can often be improved. Therefore, the students in our class will basically go to the drama, I am going to perform the drama "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" this year, and Wang Luodan will also play "Amber".

Jing Tian reacted at this time, Zhang Ran was not allowed to act in film and television dramas, but hoped that everyone would not give up the practice of acting, the doubts in her heart were suddenly solved, and then she came to Zhang Ran with a smile.

Jing Tian looked at Zhang Ran, blinked his eyes, and said seriously: "Teacher Zhang, I have already thought through the question you asked me at noon, I really want to be an actor." I also like the light brought by film and television, but in order to become a good actor, I am willing to go to the drama stage to practice like Yu Shaoqun, but I want to ask, if I am willing to give up running man and act in drama, can I worship you as a teacher?"

Zhang Ran didn't think about it, and said without hesitation: "Can't!"

Jing Tian was disappointed when he heard this, and said aggrievedly: "Why? Didn't you tell me, Yu Shaoqun only went to act in a drama after worshipping Feng Yuanzheng as a teacher, if I were your apprentice, I could also go to act in a drama right away!" Speaking of this, Jing Tian was even more aggrieved: "Do you think I'm stupid and think I don't understand anything?"

Zhang Ran smiled and shook his head: "Of course not, in fact, if I want to accept apprentices, I won't accept too smart people." Because people who are too smart often like to take shortcuts, and there is no shortcut to acting. People who can really become good actors often have a clumsy energy, can put their body and mind into the performance, and will not be opportunistic. Such a person is a bit stupid in the eyes of others!"

Jing Tian immediately said: "Master, I am such a person, I am very stupid, I can only speak at the age of three, and I only enter the first grade at the age of eight;

Zhang Ran looked at Jing Tian and said with a smile: "Yes, how do I remember that you said two days ago that you came to thank me, and now you finally tell the truth!"

Jing Tian stuck out his tongue and said embarrassedly: "I'm really here to thank you, apprenticeship is another purpose." Master, if you see that I meet the requirements so well, accept me!"

Zhang Ran shook his head gently: "You're fine, but I won't accept apprentices anymore." ”

Jing Tian stared at Zhang Ran for two seconds, and suddenly realized: "I know, it must be Liu Yifei who made you unhappy." It must be that Liu Yifei feels great after acting in two Hollywood movies, and he doesn't take Master seriously. Master, you accept me, if you accept me, I will also go to Hollywood, I will rob Liu Yifei of all the scenes, clean up the door for you, and be angry for you!"

Zhang Ran was amused by Jing Tian's words: "Jing Tian, you are really the cutest little girl I have ever met. ”

When Jing Tian heard Zhang Ran say that he was cute, he immediately made a cute expression and continued to plead: "Master, you see that I am so cute, just accept me!"

Zhang Ran smiled and shook his head: "The pandas in the zoo are much cuter than you, should I accept them as apprentices? I really have no plans to accept apprentices now, and don't call me master, I am not your master." Speaking of this, he stood up: "It's not early, let's go!"

Jing Tian let out a "hmm", held the cup and drank the juice inside, stood beside Zhang Ran and said, "Master, let's go!"

Zhang Ran took two steps before realizing that something was wrong, stopped, tilted his head and said solemnly to Jing Tian: "Don't call me master, I'm not your master!"

Jing Tian nodded seriously: "Got it, Master!"

The next morning, the crew was still filming war scenes. Up to now, several major war scenes have already been filmed, and the kind of scenes with hundreds of explosion points in one scene have also been filmed, and the remaining scenes have fewer explosion points, but the difficulty of shooting has not decreased, because it involves motion capture.

Today's filming is a scene where Major Adams' troops are ambushed and disabled, and he flees with the rest of his soldiers into a nearby town, using the town's buildings as a cover to continue the battle against the robot army.

The filming went smoothly, only to hear Zhang Ran pick up the walkie-talkie and shout: "Very good, this one has passed!"

Jing Tian heard it, and hurriedly walked into the command center with a plate of fruit, put the fruit in front of Zhang Ran, and said respectfully: "Master, after filming for so long, you must be tired, eat some fruit!"

Zhang Ran glanced at Jing Tian and said lightly: "You have been playing in the crew for a few days, it's time to go back!"

Jing Tian knew that Zhang Ran was driving himself away, and said stubbornly: "I'm not leaving, I want to play tricks in the crew!"

Zhang Ran was stunned for a moment, and then said earnestly: "You have also seen that we are filming war scenes, and there are explosives on the scene, which is very dangerous." "My Commander, My Regiment" was killed and injured twice, and it didn't take long for this to happen. A pretty little girl like you is even more dangerous, and when it explodes, it will crumble up a stone or a piece of glass, and if it hits you in the face, it will be disfigured. ”

Jing Tian knew that Zhang Ran was scaring herself, she stayed in the crew for a few days, and knew that the explosion scene of "Future Apocalypse" was different from many domestic crews, using air explosion technology, people could even stay on the explosion point, and the explosives were detonated within one meter of the human hand, you would feel pain, but you would definitely not be injured.

At this time, you should show your courage, Sister Bai Ling said that Master hates people who give up halfway the most!

Jing Tian held his head high and said, "I'm not afraid." Master, I know that in your eyes I am a very squeamish girl, and I think it is difficult for a girl like me who has not really suffered to be a good actress. Even if I say that I like acting, you will think that I am just talking about it, and I will give up when I encounter setbacks and difficulties, because there are so many things to choose from in my life, and I don't have to suffer like this. So, I wanted to prove myself and prove that I'm not one to give up easily, that I'm really passionate about acting. When you used to take the 01 class, you made the students in the class realize what an actor is. Now I am also willing to play a role in the crew, I want you to see that I really have the determination to become a good actor!"

"If you want to be a good actor, you don't need to prove it to anyone, as long as you act steadily, the audience will naturally make comments. Zhang Ran looked at Jing Tian and asked, "Who taught you those words just now? Jia Niliang? No, it should be Yang Fan!"

Jing Tian was startled, and he could even see that these words were taught by others, they were too powerful! But Master, you guessed wrong, hehe, it's not Jia Niliang, it's not Yang Mi, it's Sister Bai Ling who taught me! Jing Tian's head shook like a rattle, and his little face was full of grievances: "No, really not." That's what I thought, Master. ”

Zhang Ran stared at Jing Tian for two seconds, picked up the walkie-talkie, and shouted: "Yang Caiyi, you take Jing Tian to change her clothes, and change her into a costume with a motion capture system worn by a light robot!"
