Actor: Thank you.

"Hey, hello."

During the break on the set, Zhang Yuan took the phone from his assistant and kept answering calls.

There are too many people calling, and I can’t reply to them all.

Therefore, he was very targeted and only responded to important partners, or people he was optimistic about, had potential, and wanted to win over.

After seeing Fan Bingbing win the award, many actresses were shocked.

But there were also smart people who were able to receive the secret signal sent by Zhang Yuan.

For example, Sun Li, with whom I have a good relationship.

Every time, this woman would call him first at the right time.

If she wasn't smart, how could she have achieved her current position with her background and appearance?

Sun Li is now basically the number one actress in TV dramas among the younger generation, and has already begun to transform into movies.

And she is different from others.

When others call me, they always start with the Golden Horse Awards.

She then talked about "Painted Skin".

He said that we would meet up to talk about the play when we have time later.

For most actresses, when they talk to him about acting, it’s basically not a serious conversation about acting.

This guy is not serious either, but not that kind of serious.

I just used talking about drama as an excuse to make an appointment to go out and make friends and have a meal.

Zhang Yuan understood that she wanted to make progress.

Indeed, Sun Li is transitioning to movies, and the works she starred in are all good.

"Huo Yuanjia" and "Painted Skin" are both big investments.

But her role in these films is a bit insignificant and not that important.

Who in this industry doesn’t have ambition?
Of course she wants to go to the next level and become a top star.

With her intelligence and sensitivity, she quickly realized the motivation behind Fan Bingbing's winning the award.

But before she called, Deng Chao had stopped her.

It’s not that I’m jealous or envious of Zhang Yuan.

But Brother Chao thinks that Zhang Yuan went there but didn't win any prize. If we call him now, wouldn't it be too hurtful to him?
"I'm not as petty as you." Sun Li looked at her boyfriend with disdain.

"Besides, I think he didn't go there just to win the prize."

"Besides, even though he didn't win the award, he was the one who received the most attention at the award ceremony."

Deng Chao nodded, this is correct.

Although he didn't win any awards, all the works related to him and in which he participated won awards!

This is very powerful.

The entertainment industry is a superstitious place, otherwise there wouldn't be so many rituals before filming begins.

When casting, many directors and investors will use the leading actor's birth date to tell fortunes, to see the actor's luck in the years ahead and whether he or she will be unlucky for them.

He is so superstitious that he was shocked when he saw Zhang Yuan's condition!

One play, two plays, that’s easy to say.

It is no coincidence that the four dramas he acted in or participated in all won awards at the Golden Horse Awards to varying degrees!

The bosses took a look and thought, this guy is lucky!

It’s strange that Deng copied the article. Does Zhang Yuan have the aura of winning an award or something?
If you are close to him, you can win the award?
Brother Chao is doing pretty well lately.

Just reached an agreement with Huayi and is preparing to join.

And Huayi also gave out several great gift packages for beginners.

Among them is the standard gift package and a TV series by Big Beard.

It is the "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" which will start filming next year.

In addition to this play, there are other "entry rewards".

This is another reason why Sun Li called Zhang Yuan.

"Don't you have a conflict with Director Feng?" Sun Li said to him again.

"You just got into Huayi and you got upset with the big director. You have to leave a few more ways to go."

"We may have to rely on them for help in the future."

Then I called him.

"Mr. Zhang, there is one more thing I want to ask you."

"Don't yell at me like that. Just call me by my name."

"I'll just speak my mind straight. It's about my boyfriend Deng Chao."

Huayi still uses the old routine of recruiting well-known artists to the company. In addition to newbie gift packages, there are also benefits.

Benefits are optional.

Do you want money or shares?

If you want money, I will give you some high-paying movies and high-priced endorsements.

Zhou Xun chose money.

But Huang Xiaoming chose shares.

Because at this time, no one knew whether Huayi could successfully go public, nor did they know how much the shares would be worth in the future.

Brother Xiao Ming also made the decision after consulting his good friend Zhao Yanzi.

Deng Chao also faced this problem, so Sun Li came to him for consultation.

You've asked the right person... Zhang Yuan feels that Sun Li is very smart.

“I recommend picking stocks.”

"Cash is low risk and low return, while stocks are high risk and high return."

"I'll choose the shares anyway."

After listening to this, Sun Li felt that Zhang Yuan had a good relationship with them and there was no need to cheat him.

Besides, he wins the MVP every time. Who else should we listen to if not him?

Sooner or later, I will have to bring her into my company... Zhang Yuan put down his phone and thought so.

Liu Xiaoli also called to congratulate personally.

Fan Bingbing has become a movie queen, so what if we give Xixi a good opportunity one day and she can also become a movie queen?

Could it be that Zhang Yuan couldn't understand what she meant?

But Aunt Liu didn't know that Liu Xixi was suffering because of her mother.

Because it was she who helped her daughter change her nationality.

But she herself did not change.

Xixi will face the same problem as Li Lianjie in the future: nationality of the domestic award card and ethnicity of the foreign award card.

This is very uncomfortable.

Cheng Hao also called him, but his tone was sour.

"Fan Bingbing has become a best-selling actress. When will you help me win one too?"

Zhang Yuan looked puzzled.

"Aren't you already a movie queen?"

"And the TV Queen."

Are the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actress, the Shanghai Film Festival Award for Best Actress and the Popular Television Festival Award for Best Actress fake?

Later, he also won the Golden Lion Award for Drama.

Apart from the three golds, Cheng Hao actually got everything he should have gotten.

It's still her personality problem. She is not the kind of ruthless person who can win three gold medals.

“I’ve never won a Golden Horse.”

"Don't be so greedy."

"Then why did you hug her at the awards ceremony?"

Oh...what do you mean by winning or not winning an award? It turns out you are trying to make trouble for me because of this.

"I'm a producer, and she hugged the top executives of the crew when she received the award."

"I can't just refuse and leave her there?"

Cheng Hao is usually very generous, but he feels unhappy when he sees Fan Xiaopang.

Maybe they feel the other party is a big threat.

"Are you sure you just hugged her for a moment and didn't do anything else with her after the award ceremony?"

"I don't have the time. I have to catch a flight."

"Does that mean you will do it if you have time?"

Zhang Yuan: …

"Besides, who knows if anything happened between you and her in the car or on the plane?"

Zhang Yuan: Has the case been solved?

As expected, when women catch their lovers cheating, their IQs are as high as Sherlock Holmes'.

"Why do you always think about me like this..." He replied with a guilty conscience.

"Hmph, blame me for thinking so. Why don't you look for your own problems?" The good sister snorted coldly.

Done!

If her momentum weakened at this moment, with her intelligence, she would definitely notice something.

We must take the initiative!

"Looking for your own problems?"

"Even if you didn't win the Golden Horse Award, why don't you look for your own problems?"

"Even if you didn't win an Oscar, why don't you look for your own problems?"

"Why don't James Cameron and Spielberg ask you to make a movie? You should look for your own problems!"

"Why do you shoot more than ten hours a day but still make less than Hollywood actors who shoot six hours a day? Look for your own problems!"

"I always blame myself for everything."

"When an actress hugs me, she finds fault with herself."

"Won't this drive people crazy?"

"I was talked to death and doubted to death."

"Finally, look for your own problems." The good sister was stunned by her.

There was no sound from the other end of the phone except breathing.

Even the sound of breathing was extremely cautious and careful.

Very good, I got through it!
As expected, when you are not in the right, the best way is to go crazy and muddy the waters.

But you can't bully a good sister, so you have to go back to the first floor.

Otherwise, after hanging up the phone, she would be depressed for a long time and she couldn't bear it herself.

"Then let me ask you."

"Does Fan Bingbing have any shares in my company?"

"Are you the only one who owns shares in the brokerage company?"

“Who is in charge of so many people and getting dividends every year?”

"answer me!"

"TELL ME WHY, BABY, WHY?"

"Then let me ask you again, if the agency buys shares in her studio, who will be the manager?"

"Who will be responsible for supervising Fan Bingbing's work?"

"I know, you are good to me." Cheng Hao's voice softened a lot, and she replied in a coquettish tone.

Cheng Hao thought about it and said, yes!

I "master core technology" and own shares in the company.

Fan Bingbing's company also needs an agency to invest in it.

In this comparison, I am the insider and she is the outsider.

This means that I can also get a share of the money that Fan Bingbing earns.

Humph, she works for me!

Thinking this way, I feel better.

"Are you busy lately?"

"I'll take some time to come visit you on set."

When your mood becomes better and your attitude becomes better, you will no longer be sarcastic.

"Okay, but the crew conditions are average, and we're going to shoot the war scenes next, so it should be quite busy."

"Then I'll wait for you to come home."

"It just so happens that I also have to finish my paper before winter break."

"Row."

We chatted for a while before hanging up.

"I am a good boss..."

I have to comfort my subordinates who didn't win the award, and I also have to comfort Cheng Hao. If I had known earlier, I should have become a psychologist.

But thinking that Cheng Hao will graduate in another half a year and upgrade from an actor to a teacher.

A female teacher with black stockings, a suit and glasses...tsk tsk tsk tsk.

The dream of after-school teaching should be not far away.

Today happened to be the three old men’s last scene at the Huairou film set, so Zhang Yuan specially went to the filming location to watch.

The content being filmed is the scene where Mr. Chen and Mr. Jiang are playing Go, with Mr. Di watching the game from the sidelines.

Lord Jiang holds the black pieces, and Lord Chen holds the white pieces.

According to the rules of Go, the black piece moves first.

This implies that compared with Duke Chen, Duke Jiang takes the initiative in terms of the battle situation and court status.

But whether they are active or passive, they are just chess players.

The one who really controls the game is Di Gong, the chess spectator.

It looks like they are playing chess, but in fact it is a battle between a few old foxes.

It seems that they are holding black and white pieces, but in fact, the three Pang Qingyun brothers and the hundreds of soldiers are the chess pieces.

And this Chinese continent is the chessboard of several people.

Go contains great wisdom and philosophy.

The world is the chessboard and all living beings are the chess pieces.

To be a chess piece or to become a chess player, this is the big question.

What is even more philosophical is that some people think they can control the chess game, but their opponent overturns the table and wedges the chessboard into their faces.

Do you really think that Emperor Jing of Han, Liu Qi, has a good temper and can do whatever he wants?

If he had a good temper, then who did Emperor Wu of Han inherit his explosive temper from?
Therefore, more battles are not on the chessboard.

For example, no matter how strong your brain and calculation ability are, if I raise my hand to report that you did not put the chess piece into the lid, how will you respond?

The referee has the final say.

Zhang Yuan wanted to go from being a chess piece to becoming a chess player.

It would be even better if I could become a referee one day.

He can learn from every smile, frown, anger and resentment of the three veteran actors.

So he looked very carefully.

As soon as the director called "Cut", Zhang Yuan quickly waved his hand and asked his assistant to hand over three bouquets of flowers.

"Thank you." Teacher Wei Zongwan was very happy holding the flowers.

After so many years of filming, not many people have received such treatment.

Zhang Yuan also wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to grab a few more of them before leaving.

"I noticed that you're all over the entertainment section of the newspaper lately."

"You are quite famous." Teacher Gu Baoming smelled the fragrance of the flowers and praised with a smile.

"It's nothing. People like to watch it and praise me."

"You work so hard, of course everyone loves to watch you." The three old men all recognized this young man.

Compared to those young actors who are arrogant and rely on stand-ins when filming, they certainly hope to see those who respect their predecessors and work hard to become famous.

These three people really love this job, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to do so well.

If you love this business, you don't want it to end.

In the evening, he treated the three of them to a big drink and asked his assistant to drive them to the train station and airport personally before saying goodbye.

"so cold!"

Walk from the restaurant to the hotel where you are staying.

Zhang Yuan took a walk on purpose.

Rubbing his hands and breathing out white air, the temperature in Huairou had already dropped below zero at night.

Not only can it help digest food, but it also allows you to take a look at the new set that has been prepared in advance.

Under the moonlight, an antique city wall stands tall above the wasteland.

If you were not a member of the crew but were just passing by, you would have to regard this as a historical relic.

This shows how fine the workmanship is.

The director and crew put a lot of thought into it.

A small half city was built.

It imitates the ancient city wall of Suzhou.

Unlike Big Beard and Poet Chen, who made a movie and built a city in order to make money for themselves and invest in scenic spots.

Chen Kexin really took it seriously, just for the sake of filming.

The ancient city wall of Gusu, like the Gusu Airport, has a tragic fate.

As early as the time of Emperor Qin Shihuang, in order to strengthen rule, control the people and prevent uprisings.

While Li Si ordered people to destroy civilian weapons, he also tore down the city walls of most counties and prefectures across the country.

Among them is the Gusu City Wall.

It was not recast until the Han Dynasty.

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, in order to resist foreign invasion, the thousand-year-old earth wall was upgraded to a brick wall.

Then during the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongols were a nomadic people who didn't like city walls, so they tore them down again...

It was not until Zhang Shicheng's uprising and the occupation of Gusu that it was restored.

Now, only less than 1.5 kilometers of Gusu city wall remains, only one tenth of it remains.

Under the full support of Liang Sicheng, the famous "Liang-Chen Plan" was born.

Aims to protect the ancient buildings of the imperial capital.

The design of the inner circle of the imperial capital, with Tiananmen Square as its main body, was actually the opinion of Soviet experts.

They want to build another Red Square in the imperial capital.

The ancient buildings and city walls of the imperial capital have not been preserved, let alone those of Gusu.

The scholars who were invited by the crew to help sighed and expressed regret when they mentioned these old city walls.

Some things, once gone, are gone and can never be recreated.

But only without these old city walls and old buildings can we have the new urban area!
Only then can there be industrialization.

Only then can we have tall buildings.

Only then can we have modern Chinese cities.

In the cold winter, Zhang Yuan looked at the ancient city wall.

The old will not go, and the new will not come.

The same is true in the film and television industry!
How can new urban areas be built if the old city walls are not demolished?

It would be better to demolish all the old city areas that are blocking the road.

Whistling, he continued walking forward in a happy mood.

He believes that his future is bright.

It’s just that he guessed the future, not the present.

The crew will start filming the war scenes soon.

This series of war scenes strives to be realistic and is completely different from usual costume films.

Therefore, from actors to directors, no one could have imagined what they would face! (End of this chapter)
