Chapter Twenty-Four: The Star Master Arrives

"This big guy is so annoying!"

In the special ward of the Second Municipal Hospital, in front of the ward where Menjie was located, three reporters were wandering in the corridor, and glanced at Liu Erli, who was standing at the door with an expressionless face and meticulousness, and cursed in his heart.

Menjie has been hospitalized for two days, and while most of the reporters have dispersed, there are still three reporters here to get some news.

But who knew that Menjie's bodyguard turned out to be a guy who didn't eat oil and salt, no matter how the three reporters lured and pleaded, they didn't have the slightest expression, didn't say a word, and didn't move.

Only when the three of them were about to break into Menjie's hospital room did the tall and muscular man intervene to stop him.

With Liu Erli's strength, the three reporters who felt like firewood couldn't enter Menjie's ward at all.

"Damn, it's not a way to drag it out like this!" One of the older reporters looked at Liu Erli hatefully and muttered.

"Forget it! I don't think I can get any news today, so I'll go back first! Another young reporter in his twenties muttered, also about to put away the equipment, and prepared to go home, "My wife is still waiting at home, hehe!" ”

"Ha Lu Ha! Brother, take it easy, be careful of being squeezed dry by your younger siblings! The other two reporters laughed and joked.

In the past two days, I have been boring in front of Menjie's ward every day, and the conversation between the three of them when they are bored has a general understanding.

was sent to squat in front of the ward of Menjie, an artist who had just debuted, and it was difficult to get any decent news, only those who were very poor in the newspaper would be dispatched, and the three of them were sympathetic to each other, and there were naturally more topics.

"That, that, that......"

The reporter in his twenties was about to leave, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at the three people who were striding in the distance, and his heart was full of shock.

When the other two saw the appearance of this colleague, they were puzzled and turned around, and the next moment, the three of them also had a feeling of being speechless.

"Star, Star, Star, Star......"

The older reporter was trembling and speechless.

As a last-tier existence among journalists, the best contact in this life is only a second-tier star, and I have never seen this kind of actor-level superstar!

The man who came in the distance, for whom his hair was already a little gray, and he looked like he was in his forties, but he was still charming, was the top superstar and box office guarantee in China - Zhou Xingchi!

Zhou Xingchi, the king of comedy, the originator of nonsense, and the box office lucky star with Fang Chenglong and Zhou Yunfa known as "Double Monday Success", how could he suddenly appear here?

After being surprised, the three reporters forcibly suppressed the shock in their hearts, picked up the camera with trembling hands, and filmed frantically.

Although it is not clear why Zhou Xingchi will appear here, as a reporter, he can't let go of any news that may become banknotes!

Seeing that the three reporters were filming themselves, Zhou Xingchi didn't pay any attention to it, and under the escort of the two tall and sturdy bodyguards beside him, he went straight to Menjie's ward with a frosty face.

"Xing, Xing Ye are here to see Menjie?" Seeing Zhou Xingchi walking towards Menjie's ward, after saying a few words beside Liu Erli, he went into Menjie's ward, and the three reporters who took pictures were stunned in place.

With Zhou Xingchi's status and energy today, how could he come to visit Menjie, a young artist who has just debuted? This, this is not scientific!

Glancing at each other, the three of them exuded a strange look in their eyes, as if they had smelled the banknotes and asked.

was about to rush to Menjie's hospital room desperately, but suddenly found that the door that was originally guarded by only one bodyguard turned out to be three ......

Good boy! One bodyguard was enough for us to drink a pot, which now becomes three......

glanced at each other, and found the helplessness in each other's eyes, and the three of them could only sigh, and honestly waited at the door, waiting for Zhou Xingchi, or the doorman, to come and interview again.

"Click!"

At this time, on the surface, he was closing his eyes to recuperate, but in fact he was idle, and he was watching the 'kung fu' that he would participate in the audition in the future again and again, when he suddenly heard the sound of the door opening, and exited the Tianwang system and looked over.

In his eyes, it was a face that he didn't know how many times he had seen in TV and theaters, and Menjie couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Star, Star Master!" ”

The person who came, it was Zhou Xingchi!

Without warning, without warning!

"You're Menjie, aren't you?"

is completely different from the nonsensical and funny in the movie, Zhou Xingchi in reality can be called eccentric and a little arrogant, and his voice is very cold and difficult to approach.

"Master Xing, I'm Menjie!" Taking a deep breath, Menjie had already accepted this fact.

I thought that there would be news from the company to participate in the audition of kung fu, but I didn't expect it to be Zhou Xingchi visiting in person, which really made Menjie feel a little flattered.

"You should know that I'm going to direct and act in this kung fu film, right?"

Zhou Xingchi spoke very concisely, without too much politeness, and went straight to the point.

Zhou Xingchi's achievements in movies are unparalleled, but he is not very good at dealing with people, and if he were someone else, he might choose to chat a few words before entering the topic.

""Kung Fu", which Xing Ye directed and acted in, has been very popular before filming has started, so I naturally know a little bit about it!" Menjie chuckled, and he was also very worried in his heart, not knowing which character would be waiting for him!

"I have seen your stills, there is a kind of ruthlessness, I have a role here, you perform it and I'll take a look!" didn't ask Menjie's opinion at all, Zhou Xingchi took out an A4 paper full of words from his body and handed it to Menjie, which was the information and some lines of the role Menjie wanted to play.

According to the system data, plus Menjie's personal summary, something was discovered.

Zhou Xingchi is a very methodical and principled person, and he is even willing to offend some people for these two items!

Life, business, filming, Zhou Xingchi is very clearly divided, and even a little angry!

When working on the set, he is an excellent director, but he is also a terrifying tyrant, and he often scolds the actors, although he is a little worried about his life after entering the crew of Zhou Xingchi, but Menjie also knows that as a director, it may not be right to do so, but the responsible attitude towards the movie will definitely not be less!

It is precisely because of such an attitude that the movies directed by Zhou Xingchi will be popular, and performing under such a director can improve his acting skills!

In order to be able to make a good movie, Zhou Xingchi is willing to pay a lot of things, and the requirements are extremely strict.

In the Tianwang system, Menjie searched for a piece of news from later generations, saying that this "Kung Fu", before filming, Zhou Xingchi contacted his golden partner Wu Mengda and asked him to keep the schedule.

But during the follow-up casting, Zhou Xingchi felt that some roles could be played better by others, so he directly told Wu Mengda that he did not have his role, which directly led to Wu Mengda's loss of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

This news alone fully reflects how huge Zhou Xingchi's work is, and even some unapproachable feelings, and also reflects his emotional intelligence from the side...... It's not high, indeed!

There are many such things, such as Luo Jiaying, because Zhou Xingchi verbally promised a scene in Shaolin football before, but because he felt that he was a little worse and made the two of them bitter.

But for Menjie, these are not problems, the important thing is whether he can enter Zhou Xingchi's crew to shoot!

didn't say much, Menjie took the script handed by Zhou Xingchi and watched it.

"I'll give you half an hour, and after half an hour you give me a show, okay, just use you, no, I'll find someone else!" Zhou Xingchi found a seat by himself, concise and clear.

If you don't know him, I'm afraid you will be dissatisfied just because of these words, but at this time, Menjie has already put all his mind on the script in his hand!

This script is very brief, it just shows that Menjie is the boss of a gang, a boss with countless brothers, and even the police don't pay attention to the boss, but because of an accident, he offended the worldly master in the slums, and after being taught a lesson, he first found two killers and returned, and finally found the first killer in the world, Huoyun Evil God.

And at the end, the roles that Huoyun Evil God and Menjie asked to play were all killed by Zhou Xingchi, who suddenly broke out, and here is the synopsis of the whole film.

What Men Jie needs to play is the leader of the Axe Gang - the big guy Chen!

On the surface, he was reading the script, but in fact, Menjie's thoughts had already been placed on the Tianwang system, focusing on watching the plot of the big guy Chen.

In the original kung fu, this role is played by Chen Guokun.

Zhou Xingchi has always had a preference, or habit, like to dig up newcomers, Chen Guokun, Zhang Baizhi, Huang Shengyi and countless other famous stars are all excavated by Zhou Xingchi.

And Chen Guokun, first played the goalkeeper in Shaolin football, and then played the big guy Chen in kung fu, and then because he looked like Bruce Lee, he played Bruce Lee, and became popular all over the country.

Even, because of his kung fu role, Chen Guokun was also nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 24th Hong Kong Film Awards!

Obviously, the Tianwang system chose Zhou Xingchi, a director who will do anything to make a better scene, and let him focus on Menjie.

Failure, this role will still fall on Chen Guokun, but if it succeeds, Menjie will play this role......

It is very likely that Men Jie will also be nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 24th Hong Kong Film Awards, and it may not be realistic to want to win the award, but it is estimated that it will not be too difficult to win the Best Newcomer Award at the 24th Hong Kong Film Awards!

Only three sides were exposed, and Huang Shengyi, who did not have a single line, was still able to be nominated, and if Ruomen played the role of the boss Chen, it can be said that the nomination is a certainty, even if he wins this award, it is very possible!

Of course, the most important thing now is to get this role!

Different from the freedom and simplicity when auditioning for Song Qingshu, Zhou Xingchi gave a specific scene, and for Menjie, it can be described as the most difficult scene!

The big guy Chen in kung fu, most of the time, is arrogant, no one in his eyes, and there are some nonsensical appearances in the subtle movements, with Menjie's 'sharp gaze' as an aid, it is not a problem to interpret these scenes well, but the audition requirements given by Zhou Xingchi make Menjie have to completely abandon his sharp gaze!

Big guy Chen found two of the world's second biggest killers to vendetta against a few people in the slums, but was defeated by the domineering and exposed charter man and charter wife, after witnessing the perverted strength of the charter man and charter wife from a distance, the big guy Chen's heart was only left with fear!

Then, when the big guy Chen lit a cigarette for himself, because both sides were trembling, he accidentally set the big guy Chen's hair on fire.

The test questions given by Zhou Xingchi made the outstanding actor Chen panic when his head caught fire while he was terrified!

This image subverts the image of no one and arrogant in the eyes of the previous big man, and it needs some funny elements to be able to play it.

Obviously, Zhou Xingchi already has some confidence in Menjie playing the big guy Chen and pretending to be 13, but he is skeptical of the funny component, in fact, Menjie is indeed weak in this regard.

"Whew! Master Xing, I'm alright! ”

After a while, it took less than ten minutes, Menjie watched this scene several times, took a deep breath, and looked at Zhou Xingchi firmly.

"So fast?" Zhou Xingchi, who was observing Menjie's every move, was stunned for a moment, and then said nonchalantly, "Try it!" ”

In his heart, he probably thought that Menjie was not ready at all, so he arrogantly chose to start the audition, for this kind of actor who does not take his work to heart, Zhou Xingchi does not like it from the bottom of his heart.

"Redeem skills, at a loss!"

As soon as his mind moved, Menjie sank into the Heavenly King system and quickly exchanged this skill.

Menjie, who already has 754 points, is enough to exchange for a skill, and a skill worth 500 points is just right.

Helpless: d Top acting skills: can make the host enter a state of panic to the extreme, using both hands and feet, and waving unconsciously

Menjie, who is relatively lacking in comedy and has not yet reached C-level acting skills, has to find another way to redeem this kind of skill that can fully show panic and helplessness, and express the helplessness to the extreme, so as to achieve a funny effect.

"Let's get started!" With Zhou Xingchi's order, Menjie also quickly entered the state, his expression looked a little sluggish, and he couldn't help trembling, it was completely Menjie who relied on his own acting skills to perform, and he had not yet used his skills.

Looking at Menjie's jerky performance, Zhou Xingchi couldn't help frowning, it seems that this newcomer is still lacking in acting skills!
