Chapter 9: Am I the Protagonist?
…
Recently, it is Zhao Yazhi's busiest period of time, and it is also a crucial period for her acting career - while filming "Fa Qian Han", Zhao Yazhi also played the role of Wei Ting in TVB's TV series "The Great Revenge".
"The Great Revenge" is a period drama adapted from the world-famous novel "The Count of Monte Cristo", the play has a strong cast, and the drama in the play is very strong, which can be said to be popular before it was broadcast. It is not easy for Zhao Yazhi to get an important role. Therefore, at first, Zhao Yazhi mainly focused on "The Great Revenge".
In this way, Wu Yusen, the director of "Fa Qian Han", was furious, and Wu Yusen even leaked his intention to replace Zhao Yazhi in an interview with reporters.
When Zhao Yazhi learned the news, she was depressed - she didn't want to lose the opportunity to play Mary, the heroine of "Fa Qian Han".
Therefore, Zhao Yazhi could only rush back and forth, tossing herself exhausted.
Seeing this, Xu Cun, who always paid attention to Zhao Yazhi, took the initiative to find Zhao Yazhi and said: "Ah Zhi, it won't work if it goes on like this, let's not say that you will not be able to play Mary and Wei Ting well in this state." If it goes on like this, your body can't stand it, and don't forget, you just gave birth at the beginning of the year. ”
Zhao Yazhi showed a trace of bitterness and said: "I don't want to do this either, but I can't help it, the two roles of Mary and Wei Ting are too important to me, once I lose one of them, I may have to struggle for several more years!"
Zhao Yazhi still has a hard time not saying - her husband's family is very opposed to her showing up, if she can't get results, she has to go home to teach her husband and children, Zhao Yazhi, who is only twenty-three years old, doesn't want to be bound by the family too early!
Xu Cun was silent for a while before he said: "In this way, you tell me about your schedule in the crew of "The Great Revenge", and I will help you adjust your time and give you as much rest time as possible." ”
Xu Cun's words made Zhao Yazhi feel overjoyed - if this was the case, then she could indeed be a lot easier.
However, in the next moment, Zhao Yazhi showed a hint of embarrassment and said: "Ah Cun, the "Great Revenge" side usually only informs the shooting plan for the next day the night before......
"It's okay, as long as we communicate in time, it's not a big problem. It's really not good, we meet every night. Xu Cun said with a smile.
Since then, Zhao Yazhi has been much easier, and there are almost no collisions on both sides. Zhao Yazhi knew that this was all the result of Xu Cun's help, so her relationship with Xu Cun was getting better and better......
……
The filming of "Fa Qian Han" was very fast, and most of it was completed in less than a month.
On this day, the crew came to a special actor who Xu Cun has always liked - Lin Zhengying.
When it comes to Lin Zhengying, few people don't know.
There are countless actors in Xiangjiang, but there are very few good actors, and in this sense, Lin Zhengying can only be regarded as a relatively ordinary actor - he has neither acted in too decent films, nor has he received much praise for his acting skills.
But Lin Zhengyinggui is insisting, his Taoist role is so classic that no one can surpass it so far, once Lin Zhengying is in the zombie film, it is equivalent to more than half of the success.
In terms of zombie films alone, Lin Zhengying is comparable to Zhou Xingchi in nonsensical comedy, and no one can replace him.
However, this is Lin Zhengying in the future, and now Lin Zhengying is at the most depressed time, he used to be Bruce Lee's right and left hand, and he can only come to the crew of "Fa Qian Han" to play a role that only shows a few faces and no dialogue.
Compared with the current Lin Zhengying, Xu Cun is much better! So, under Xu Cun's deliberate friendship, Lin Zhengying quickly became familiar with Xu Cun.
……
"The actors are in place!"
"The dragon is in place!"
"Lights ready!"
"Camera ready!"
"Motorcycles and cars ready!"
The fifth shot of the twenty-second scene of "Fa Qian Han", Ikesh!
Xu Cun took a picture of the clipboard, and Lin Zhengying and two other killers took out guns and pointed them at Wu Yaohan......
……
Until Wu Yaohan got on the motorcycle, Lin Zhengying and two other killers got into the car. Wu Yusen shouted: "Click! Let's get here in the morning. ”
When the actors heard this, they packed up their things and then scattered.
Xu Cun walked to Lin Zhengying's side with two boxes of lunches, handed Lin Zhengying a box, and the two found a place in the shade to sit down.
"Brother Lin, what are your plans for the future?" Xu Cun asked Lin Zhengying while opening the lunch box.
"Brother Sanmao wants to form the Hong family class, and I want to go to him. Lin Zhengying said.
"Mr. Hong was born in the Yuan family class, if he forms the Hong family class, will his junior brothers also have to go to him?" Xu Cun said knowingly.
"Well, Brother Sanmao is righteous, not only his brothers will follow him, but even the brothers in our Fan family class will follow him. Lin Zhengying replied.
"Brother Lin, let me say something simple and profound -- when will you be able to survive so many people? and say another word of heart-wrenching -- during the time of Mr. Bruce Lee, you were a martial artist, but after Mr. Bruce Lee passed away, you could only play these roles...... If you go to the Hong family class, you will have to work as a dragon and tiger martial artist for at least a few more years before you can get ahead, and you may not be able to get ahead. Xu Cun said slowly.
When Xu Cun spoke, Lin Zhengying didn't say a word, just ate hard.
Seeing this, Xu Cun took out a copy of "Oriental Daily" from the script and put it at Lin Zhengying's feet, and said: "I wrote the novel "Shanghai Tang" in this newspaper, and the director of TVB, Zhao Zhenqiang, approached me and intended to arrange "Shanghai Tang" as a TV series, and also wanted to ask me to be a screenwriter...... Brother Lin, I would like to recommend you to become a martial artist. In addition, I want to make two movies in the coming year, one of which will make you an assistant director and the other will make you the leading actor. ”
As soon as Xu Cun's words came out, Lin Zhengying suddenly raised his head to look at Xu Cun and repeated: "I am the protagonist?"
"Well, but it's going to be the second movie next year, and you can only be an assistant director in the first one. Xu Cun said.
Lin Zhengying entered the film industry at the age of seventeen as a dragon and tiger martial artist, and began to be a martial artist at the age of nineteen, and his first movie as a martial artist was Bruce Lee's "Tangshan Big Brother", and Bruce Lee personally invited him to be a martial arts commander, and he also played a role in "Tangshan Big Brother". In addition to "Raptors Across the River", the films starring Bruce Lee all have him as a martial artist. He and Chen Huiyi are Bruce Lee's right and left hands, and when Bruce Lee was filming martial arts, if there was no them, he would rather not turn on the camera.
is asking, how can Lin Zhengying, who has had such an experience, be willing to start from a new career in martial arts?
However, Lin Zhengying and Hong Jinbao have been friends for many years after all, and Hong Jinbao has also taken care of him in the past two years.
After being silent for a long time, Lin Zhengying, who couldn't make up his mind, picked up a few bites of leftovers from the lunch, and then picked up the "Oriental Daily" at his feet and said to Xu Cun: "Mr. Xu, you let me think about it, and I will give you an answer tomorrow." ”
