Text Chapter 1005 Little Fresh Meat
The weather in Yanjing is getting hotter and hotter, especially around noon, the heat can melt people's fat, for actors with infinite scenery in front of people, filming in this weather is tantamount to a chore, especially when filming costume dramas.
"The heat is dead, the heat is dead, the heat is dead!"
Song Zheng heard Guo Baochang shouting, trotted straight to the shade of the tree, threw the whole person directly on the recliner, took the cold drink handed by Ren Tong, and took a sip, it was really cold.
"You, you're also in your thirties, you don't even understand the truth of being calm and naturally cool, the faster you move, the more you shout about the heat, the more you feel hot, look at me, basking in the sun, how comfortable you are!"
It was Liu Peiqi who spoke, as the original cast of "Mansion Gate", and now Guo Baochang wants to open a new house door, so he is naturally indispensable.
Don't look at this old comrade is not young, but his heart is like a child, he loves to play and make trouble, and as soon as he entered the group, he organized a "Peking Opera Troupe with Axes", which attracted a group of old men and old ladies in the crew to stick to his room every day to raise their voices.
Usually in the crew, I also like to talk and laugh with people, especially Song Zheng, the old and the young get together, so they can tease each other.
"Do you stand and talk without backache, your scenes are filmed indoors all day today, there is air conditioning inside, and no matter how hot it is outside, you can still get the sun?
Ren Tong got up and was about to go, when he heard Liu Peiqi shouting: "Girl, don't forget to bring me a cup too!"
Ren Tong went, and Song Zheng smiled and said: "You are really good, you don't bring an assistant when you go out to film, but you will instruct my people!"
Peggy Lau adjusted a comfortable posture: "Can I compare with you? Besides, when I was filming, I never saw anyone with an assistant, and now I am young people, I am not talking about you." ”
Song Zheng said: "I know!"
Liu Peiqi sighed, and continued: "I can't get used to seeing some young actors now, hugging them when they go out, a little star, who dares to bring seven or eight assistants by his side, some specialize in umbrellas, some specialize in carrying water, some specialize in carrying snacks, and some specialize in carrying a folding chair, I wonder why children are like this now." ”
Song Zheng listened to Liu Peiqi's complaints, but he didn't answer, he naturally knew that young actors were getting more and more squeamish, but he knew that the more this wind went, the more exaggerated it became, so that the little fresh meat, which was originally a compliment, became a little demeaning.
The emergence of small fresh meat is a normal result of the continuous development of the entertainment market, the word little fresh meat was originally people's affectionate name for some young and beautiful stars, and there is nothing wrong with it, but as some small fresh meat loses itself in the tide of entertainment of drunken gold fans, and continues to be shoddy for economic interests, the word "small fresh meat" is also covered with a derogatory component in the eyes of some people.
As far as Song Zheng knows, in the future, there are very few positive news about Xiao Xianrou on the Internet, and they are basically linked to negative news, and most of the seniors in the entertainment industry are also critical when they talk about Xiao Xianrou.
There was once an old artist who sighed: "For a film and television work, fifty or sixty percent of the investment is taken away by the leading actor, what should I do with the supporting roles? What about the director, screenwriter, field affairs, and props? What to do, we can only find cheap ones, we all know that cheap is not good, so we see fewer and fewer excellent works." ”
The old artist's words are thought-provoking, but the implication can't help but make people think deeply, are those outrageous "little fresh meat" who ask for a lot of money really "you get what you pay for"?
In fact, some "little fresh meat" lack acting skills, have a bad attitude, and some can't even memorize their lines, you can imagine the little fresh meat standing opposite the tearful old drama bones with a numb expression, it's just magical realism, such a picture, just thinking about it makes people feel distressed.
Acting skills are not good, in fact, there is no shame, no acting skills but can be mixed into the showbiz, it is also a creation, the opportunity is so good, it is not too late to think about acting skills. However, this group of little fresh meat is completely rotten, and their acting skills have not improved, and they even refuse to memorize their lines. The so-called reading lines is actually one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
What kind of show is this?
If the acting skills are not good, it will be completely rotten. One, two, three, four, five, sit on the ground and absorb gold. No acting skills can be tolerated, this is a matter of ability. But without acting skills and attitude, taking acting as child's play is a moral problem.
Besides, if you don't memorize the lines, you don't have a problem with your brain, you can't force it, but at least it should be a real person, but what the hell is Wen Ti rampant?
All kinds of channeling and rolling plays, where you can use a stand-in, use a stand-in to solve it. On the camera, even the body is someone else's, which is simply a crime.
To do bad things, you have to look like you are doing bad things, but what is even more hateful is that these little fresh meat have no shame at all.
Song Zheng encountered such a thing when he was in Hengdian in his last life, when he was working as an action director in a crew, the same crew, those old actors, no matter how big their wrists are, the director asked him to arrive at half past six, and people would be 100% in advance.
And those little fresh meat actors, IP actors, ignore these requirements of the director, and finally look forward to coming, as long as he arrives at the scene, he must be filmed first, and other actors have to wait.
One day there was such a thing, an old actor was filming, and the shooting was finished in just one shot, and the little fresh meat actor came, and someone immediately came, as if he was still an assistant director or something, and said "He is here" to the old actor.
The old actor didn't understand what it meant at all?
The assistant director said: "Our crew has a rule, as long as he comes, we have to shoot him." ”
Of course, the old actor was not happy, so he said: "I only have one shot left, I'll be fine today, he has four scenes, I have to wait for him for two or three hours." ”
The assistant director also looked helpless: "That's no way." ”
The old actor could only hold back his anger: "Okay, I'll wait." ”
Song Zheng saw it all over at the time, and he was not surprised by this kind of thing for a long time, because the operation of all the crews at that time was mainly based on these little fresh meat.
And when you go to the scene to shoot, everyone often has to wait.
What are you waiting for?
That little fresh meat was obviously in the car, but he just wouldn't get down.
Why?
Immediately someone will say, "He's sleepy, he's going to rest for a while." ”
You need to rest, and the whole crew has to wait.
With the virtue of fucking up, can the crew not be annoyed?
But the problem is that it's useless to be annoyed, as long as the investor is not annoying.
What's the matter of selling a play? It's not just these small traffic fresh meat, even if everyone knows that these goods are very fucked, but they still have to find these goods, because this drama doesn't find enough traffic fresh meat, and buyers don't want it.
What should I do?
No way.
can only be indignant for a while, and then continue to wait, Song Zheng felt that as an actor, from the very least professional ethics, he had to do this when he earned this money.
Let everyone wait for him alone, because he is sleepy. The business level is almost zero, and he is used to doing things that lack morality, but he is not ashamed, he is overbearing on the set, and he can't drag it out.
Put yourself in your shoes, the directors, cameramen, and actors in the entire performance team, as well as dedicated veteran actors, group performers, and staff just waiting for a little fresh meat to rest in the car, will they hate itchy?
What's even more fucking is that this group of little fresh meat still has an amazing right to speak.
The director can be changed, the screenwriter can be changed, the producer can be changed, anything can be changed, but Xiao Xianrou can't be changed.
Xiao Xianrou appeared, with its own traffic and capital, everyone has to nod to Xiao Xianrou, what else can the industry say?
People in the industry who know drama may be replaced every minute, no status, no right to speak, zero acting skills, no quality of little fresh meat, if you want to sprinkle, you can sprinkle, it is irreplaceable in the entire crew, and it is already bad to be an actor.
However, when it comes to making money, small fresh meat is the best, and the small fresh meat in the industry, which one is not paid at the level of tens of millions?
It's completely a little fresh meat eating meat, and the rest of the crew drinks soup. The most incompetent and unethical guy takes the most money. At this time, spread on anyone's head, is it angry?
Also, this group of little fresh meat came out with tens of millions of fans, and they often said "Do you know how hard XX works"?
Not waiting for a refutation.
A carriage of vulgar words has arrived at the scene, and finally met a person who is willing to listen to reason, and people will tell you after listening: My idol is good-looking! You, you, you, ugly, shut up for me!
The femme fatale has become synonymous with justice when it hides its heart in a beautiful skin, and what else is there to say.
But the question is, such actors are frantically sought after by capital and favored by the market for no reason, what do these "little fresh meat" rely on?
The answer is self-explanatory, it is those who defend themselves, and those fans who speak out.
It doesn't matter, as long as there are fans, there is no need to prepare carefully, and there is no need to carefully consider, as long as there are stars with high exposure, and a slightly more popular IP, a TV series can be launched in a hurry, where can the quality of such a work be?
If it is not profitable, how can it plunge into this cauldron in one go, and the audience is the direct victim of this chaos, but it is also the promoter behind this chaos. Some young people take "appearance" as the standard, regard "looking at the face" as the trend of the times, and regard some "little fresh meat" as "male gods and goddesses", regardless of whether their aesthetics are correct, this kind of superficial understanding of floating baths should not be advocated.
Some young students have lost their correct value judgment in the impulsiveness and naivety of adolescence, idols are good, others can neither judge nor criticize, and even the idols they like are different from each other to attack, unconditionally support their "idols", do not pay attention to study and life, and pin their aimless emptiness and cheap feelings on a distant star, thinking that they are unswerving and moving, but in fact they are just impulsive, moaning without illness, and will soon disappear. It's human nature to like celebrities, but unreasonable pursuit will harm others and yourself.
There are also some viewers, in fact, who don't buy the accounts of some celebrities' fresh meat, but unknowingly got on the thief ship and were coerced into the tide of national entertainment in the social era, "watching from the crowd", "watching while scolding", and even "watching for scolding", but they don't know that this is exactly helping to abuse, everyone wants to watch good dramas, under the vicious circle, there will only be fewer and fewer excellent works, whether it is some fans who promote the expansion of "fresh meat", as an audience, they should self-reflect, do they also "contribute" in this process?
Peggy Lau has feelings today, in fact, because the current entertainment industry has this trend and has begun to become impetuous, compared to spending a lot of time and energy to polish good works, good character design seems to be a tried and tested shortcut.
This has also led to more and more young actors, like the little fresh meat in the future, falling into the trap of having more personality than their works, acting skills and word of mouth, following the crazy followers of tens of millions of fans.
However, it is easy to package, but it is difficult to maintain, for example, Wu Yifan, in his previous life, under the premise that his acting skills and singing skills need to be tempered, he became popular with his "cold and innocent" character.
The weak performances and impetuous mentality of the little fresh meat do make people anxious, and they also make some big directors dare not entrust them with important tasks, so they can be responsible for their appearance, but they dare not let them be responsible for acting.
At a time when the Internet is developed, funds are flocking, and the fan economy is growing, it is really not difficult to become popular overnight. Little fresh meat can often rely on the appearance given by God, relying on the human packaging coerced by capital, and roaring with "hot" works, even if they are not from a professional class and there is no good work escort, the topic of little fresh meat can continue to blow up the entertainment industry in minutes.
However, under the excitement, it is often emptiness. When the play has not been performed well, the song has not been sung well, and the sense of variety show is not enough, you can attack from all sides to make quick money, who can still be calm?
When taking on three or four works at the same time, who has the time, energy and sincerity to hone their acting skills?
Therefore, the excitement is lively, but the acting skills and reputation are difficult to improve.
Don't complain that you can't meet a good script and director, really high-quality film and television works will never choose to be starred by "Little Fresh Meat", which can only be eye-catching and ratings seasoning at best.
There used to be a grand occasion of small students running rampant, but the entertainment industry at that time was not as noisy and flashy as it is now, but the little fresh meat back then also became famous with their high-quality works and outstanding acting skills, not only that, but they have also been diligently pursuing acting skills after becoming famous, such as Liu Ye and Chen Kun.
And good works have also become the best glue between them and their fans, not crazy and enthusiastic pursuit, but long-term attention.
Beauty will eventually twilight, and fresh meat will always get old. It's not hard to become popular, it's always not easy to be popular. In the entertainment industry, the only things that can be "fresh" for a long time are works and acting skills.
Therefore, since the beginning of his debut, Song Zheng has been avoiding those roles that cannot help him improve his acting skills, and when he felt that his acting skills had encountered a bottleneck, he decisively began to change to the direction of directing.
is not only strict with herself, but also with the actors under the company, such as Jin Chen, a newcomer, and has not yet had a convincing work, so the company did not equip her with an assistant, not even a nanny car, if you want to enjoy the treatment of a popular star, you must speak with your work, otherwise everything is free to talk.
"Uncle Liu, what do you think of that girl in our company?"
"Who?" Liu Peiqi asked with a smile knowingly, "The one who made you scold for hiccups two days ago?"
Song Zheng felt a little embarrassed when he heard it, and the funny girl didn't even take the usual path when she made a mistake: "Who else besides her!"
Liu Peiqi smiled, and after laughing, she said: "If you want to hear the truth, I will give you two sentences in the vernacular, if the child is measured by the standard of an actor, it is still far behind, but I can also tell you the truth, that child is definitely a good material to be an actor, born to eat this bowl of rice, the most commendable thing is that in this circle now, there are too few children who work so hard like her, really too few!"
That's not a low rating!
Song Zheng thought about it and looked over to Jinchen, and saw that the child was giggling with the little actor who played her sister in the play, and the more she looked at it, the more pleasing she felt to the eye, at least, this bear thing was not squeamish at all.
"Brother, Teacher Liu, herbal tea is here!"
Song Zheng took it casually, and was just about to drink it, when the ghost envoy said: "Little boy, you work hard again, buy a cold drink for Jin Daxi!"
Liu Peiqi was drinking herbal tea, and when she heard the words, she said: "You can be the boss, and you know that you feel sorry for the people under your hands, she is blessed to meet you!"
Song Zheng didn't think he was very good to Jin Chen, in his eyes, Jin Chen was just a child, and he ran to Yanjing at a young age to develop, since he arrived at his company, he must take care of it.
Just thinking about it, he suddenly heard a noise of people not far away, and looked up: "Who is here?"
Liu Peiqi didn't turn her head and said: "The wrist who came to make a cameo, Guo Lao's play, who in the circle doesn't pay attention, not to mention, this may be Guo Lao's last play!"
Song Zheng couldn't help but be gloomy when he heard it, he had heard the old man say before that after filming this "Prequel to the Mansion", it was time to consider retirement, the old man is not young, he is in his seventies, and he really can't cope with high-intensity work like filming.
Just as he was about to ask who it was, Song Zheng saw that the crowd automatically separated, and a familiar figure hired Tingting walked in his direction.
"Long time no see!"
Familiar, with a slightly hoarse voice, Song Zheng couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at the visitor, it was indeed a long time since he saw him, but Song Zheng didn't have the joy of reuniting after a long absence at the moment, and he wondered in his heart: How to follow his daughter-in-law to explain now!
