Huayu: Start by asking ex-girlfriends for alms

Chapter 187 Jing Tian: Sister Xixi, the senior doesn’t seem to be very smart

Chapter 187 Jing Tian: Sister Xixi, the senior doesn’t seem to be very smart
"Mom, when you have time, clean up a separate guest room and prepare daily necessities."

"What? Someone's coming?" Cheng's mother came over. "Could it be that Jiecheng wants to bring some friends over as a guest?"

"What are you thinking about? Jiecheng is still in France filming a movie, how can he have time to come back?" Cheng Hao rolled his eyes. "Besides, you keep saying Jiecheng Jiecheng all the time, but I've never heard you talk about me like this."

"You're in front of me every day, why would I keep nagging you? Besides, I've been nagging you for more than 20 years, I'm tired of it."

Seeing that her mother couldn't stop talking and was about to start digging up the past, Cheng Hao quickly interrupted her:
"The guest room is cleaned for Jiecheng's parents. I just told Jiecheng about it."

"Who? The in-laws are coming?" Cheng's mother was stunned. "When are they coming? How long will they stay?"

"I haven't called to inform them yet, and I have no idea how long I'll be staying. But it will be at least a few months, maybe even a year or two." Cheng Hao picked up the phone again, "By the way, Mom, why don't you learn how to cook Huizhou cuisine? I'm worried that my uncle and aunt won't be used to the taste of Qingdao. Or you can just find a nanny who can cook Huizhou cuisine."

Although Zhen Jiecheng said: "They have tried both authentic and British food, there is nothing in the world that they cannot eat!"

But as a daughter-in-law, it’s ok to just listen to the complaints, but how can I not take them seriously?
When he dialed the phone again, Cheng Hao's aura also changed.

Although Mother Cheng had seen this scene many times before, she couldn't help but sigh every time she saw it:

Jiecheng is such an outstanding kid!
Following Jiecheng, even my daughter has changed.

The old saying is true: He who keeps company with vermilion becomes redder, and he who keeps company with ink becomes blacker!

Thinking about this, he tiptoed to leave the study. Looking at the paintings on the wall, a smile suddenly spread across his face.

He murmured:

"Zhen Hao, that's great!"

Hearing her mother's mumbling, Cheng Hao stroked her belly and couldn't help laughing.

If she knew that her son-in-law nicknamed her grandson "Zhen De Diao" and her granddaughter "Zhen Piaoliang", what would she think? Would she still be able to say the word "Jie Cheng" affectionately?

A smile appeared on his lips, but the tone of his voice on the phone did not fluctuate.

"According to what I just said, you should take your team and leave for Shenzhen immediately."

“When it comes to shares, money is not a problem, and premium is not a problem either!”

The company's cash flow gave Cheng Hao enough confidence. Even though he had to spend eight figures every year for the past three years to build a high-level earthquake-resistant school in the Longmenshan fault zone, the company's development was still booming.

The three films by Zhen Jiecheng, plus Ning Hao's "Crazy Stone", each of which cost little to make, have made a lot of money.

"dududu~"

Hang up the phone and call the second one again.

"Hello, Director Kang."

"I have already started the second round of publicity plan."

"Don't worry, both Jie Cheng and I have absolute confidence in "Soldier Assault", even if its ratings are average for now."

"Good works will not be buried. I will try my best to speed up the spread of word of mouth."

At the beginning, "Soldier Assault" was aimed at CCTV.

However, CCTV raised the question: What is so touching about this film?

Is it as grand as the Master’s?

Are there any actual combat exercises produced with large investments?

Or will it be like "Battlefield Inspector" with a strong cast and big names joining in?

Or there could be other factors that influence the ratings: such as twists and turns in the plot, interspersed love scenes and beautiful women.

The answer is of course no!

Even though Wang Baoqi is a so-called billion-dollar box office actor, no one in the industry would consider him a big shot.

Although Hu Ge became very popular, on the one hand he played supporting roles, and on the other hand his foundation was weak.

As for Duan Yihong, Zhang Yi, Chen Sicheng and others, how many people know them? They are not even famous among the public.

As a last resort, they could only turn to the next best option and negotiate with local stations. But no matter what, it was much better than the situation in the previous life. At least they didn't have to fall to the terrestrial channels of provincial satellite TV and make a comeback step by step.

Hu Ge's fame and the sudden car accident helped.

What Cheng Hao has to do now is to arrange for the Internet users to conduct extensive discussions on the content of the already aired episodes of "Soldier Assault" in major forums and BBS, as well as to contact more variety shows and talk shows.

Guangguang showed goodwill to this and the "Film and Television List", which focuses on reviewing popular TV series at home and abroad, was willing to give an interview.

Cheng Hao knew that Wang Changtian was trying to show her affection to her man, but she still took the initiative to ask for the contact information of the host. Sister Hua said: Network resources are accumulated bit by bit. If the other party is not well-known, taking the initiative at this time is equivalent to an investment in favors.

"Hello, is this Xie Nan?"

"Hello, I'm Cheng Hao from Jiecheng Film and Television Company."

Zhen Jiecheng didn't know that the women in his family were "investing" in Wu Jing's future daughter-in-law.

Otherwise, he would have called Wang Changtian immediately: "You wanted to introduce Liu Yan to me, but it didn't spread in Guangguang, did it? Xie Nan didn't understand, did she? She wouldn't be talking nonsense, right?"

It would be fine if they really made friends. Anyway, Zhen Jiecheng doesn't feel itchy when he has too many lice, and he doesn't worry about having too many debts.

The problem is that I have never had any contact with it at all, and it would be too unfair to take the blame.

Moreover, when Liu Yan first interviewed Brother Chen at the press conference of "The Promise" on behalf of Guangguang, she asked the question "If the box office does not meet expectations, will it hurt your self-esteem?", which directly made Brother Chen furious.

It is better to stay away from such bold people.

What Zhen Jiecheng likes most is someone who is mature, gentle, and tolerant.

At least they have to be well-behaved and obedient, although the kind I met were really lacking in nutrition compared to Liu Yan.

For example, this one in front of you:
"Tian Tian!"

"Do you know what vanity is?"

Jing Tian lowered his head.

"Do you know what money worship is?"

She stood up straight with her legs together, her hands behind her back, her fingers intertwined.

"Put yourself in the shoes of others, understand them, and act them out, OK?"

Jing Tian raised her eyelids cautiously.

After hesitating several times, he finally opened his mouth under Zhen Jiecheng's impatient gaze.

"Director, I've really tried my best to put myself in your shoes." Jing Tian blinked pitifully, "But I really can't understand it."

Because of nervousness and anxiety, she even had a crying tone.

"I also tried to imitate similar characters I've seen in movies and TV shows, but it always felt awkward, and the more I acted, the more I felt out of place."

"Fuck!" Zhen Jiecheng blurted out, but the next second, he suddenly stopped and was stunned.

屮!
She really couldn't put herself in the situation's shoes and couldn't understand it.

Vanity? Money worship?
If it were Xiaolu, she could perform one hundred and eighty different postures.

Even the natural movie queen, the Holy Angel, can perform brilliantly with her true self.

Can be replaced with Jing Tian.
A horse given by her stepfather could make her throw the birthday present carefully prepared by her biological father to the ground? And then run towards him with a ridiculous dancing posture?
Not to mention the horses, even the manor provided by the French nobles to Chen Long for filming the opening scenes of the film was not taken seriously by Jing Tian.

The more Zhen Jiecheng thought about it, the more he felt that Jing Tian was right, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this girl was indeed wronged.

Understanding is one thing, speaking is another.

"Last time I was teaching a class at the Beijing Film Academy's acting department, and I asked a male classmate to play the role of the father."

"Then he told me that he couldn't act, and I asked him why."

Hearing this, Jing Tian stopped trembling and asked curiously,
"Is it because he has never been a father?"

"Yes!" Zhen Jiecheng gave a thumbs up, "Smart!"

"How did you respond?"

“I asked him: So you don’t have a father?”

Jing Tian:.
"Pfft~"

Gong Li, who came to make a guest appearance, was happy.

Gong Jie wore her own dress, saving the crew a lot of clothing expenses. The low-cut V-neck was generous, and the fluttering dress was even more amazing.

He stepped forward and took Jing Tian's arm, glaring at Zhen Jiecheng.
"Okay, Jiecheng, stop teasing Tiantian."

"Tiantian is still young and hasn't received any systematic training yet."

As he said that, he pulled Jing Tian aside.

"Tiantian, come with me, I'll teach you how to act!"

"Tiantian, what is the thing you want most but haven't got yet?"

"Emm, it's 'over'."

"Pass?" Gong Li was stunned.

"That's right, Sister Gong, it was the senior who picked up the loud speaker and shouted: 'pass'!" Jing Tian imitated it vividly, and then continued with a bitter face, "But it always said 'click'!"

"Puchi~" Gong Li laughed again.

I thought that I came here purely to help, and by the way, I could let Jiecheng help me scold Zhang Weiping, so it was worth the hard work.

But I didn't expect that after joining the crew, there was joy everywhere, and my mood also became cheerful.

First, he watched Chen Long’s embarrassed expression when he was stared at by himself after being bombarded with the continuous “protect one line” slogan for most of the day.

Then the shooting of the day ended. As soon as Zhen Jiecheng left, Li Pingbin kept saying "fuck" and "die luom" one after another, and added a very authentic "tama", and chatted with a group of employees, engaging in "guazi"-style social interaction.

The most outrageous thing is that it was actually “Ye Ye” melon seeds!
Li Pingbin specifically emphasized: This thing is not easy to buy, if you are not careful you will buy "Cha Cha" or "Qia Qia". When I personally went on stage today, I met Jing Tian again.

Wow, it’s really not easy to let Jiecheng’s “damn” cut off on his own.

Moreover, this girl comes from a wealthy family, but her personality is simple and well-behaved, and Gong Li likes her very much.

"Tiantian, do you want to be a good actor?"

"Of course!" Jing Tian nodded.

"OK, let's make an assumption! Let's switch the roles in this scene. Let's assume that Chen Long is not playing your biological father, but your uncle, the boss with a brilliant personality as described by Chen Long and Jie Cheng: Lu Zheng."

"It's still your birthday, and your Uncle Lu brought you a gift."

"Then, your stepfather will be replaced by Jie Cheng, and Jie Cheng has also prepared a gift for you. It is to register for the film festival after the film is completed in the future, Cannes. Emmm, Cannes is a bit inappropriate, so let's change it to the Saturn Award for Best Young Actor nomination and the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress nomination."

Seeing Jing Tian's eyes becoming brighter and brighter, Gong Li added fuel to the fire.

"Imagine that Jie Cheng is waving at you and shouting to you: Tian Tian! Your hard work has paid off! You have been nominated for the Saturn Awards and the Oscars, and your acting skills have been recognized!"

"You are surrounded by your friends, and they are all cheering and applauding for you."

"The acting teachers from Beijing Film Academy are here. They want to see what their future students look like. Someone from the Central Academy of Drama is here too. They want to poach you. They think that with your talent, you should go to the Central Academy of Drama!"

“But Sister Gong, even if this is the case, I can’t put Uncle Lu’s gift on the ground.” Jing Tian replied.

"Then put it in my hands? Am I not playing your mother in the play?"

"But if that's the case, wouldn't that go against the script?" Jing Tian asked doubtfully, "Will that work?"

"Why not?" Gong Li smiled and said, "Remember, Tiantian, the script is just a framework."

"Take the lines for example, the so-called memorizing the lines is actually the initial stage of becoming an actor."

"For talented actors, the lines are words that need to be understood and digested, combined with external body language and psychological activities, and then spoken, rather than memorized."

“It may be different from the original lines, but without jumping out of the framework, it is the actor’s best interpretation of the work and can also win the director’s recognition.”

After a pause,
“Of course, thinking outside the box is not necessarily wrong, but that’s another realm.”

"do you understand?"

"I understand!" Jing Tian nodded obediently as always.

The amplitude and frequency of the nodding seemed familiar and extremely familiar.

Add to that sincere expression and serious eyes.

Zhen Jiecheng saw this scene from a distance, and the more he watched, the more he felt something was wrong.

But before he could think about it carefully, Jing Tian had already returned from his studies.

"Director, I'm ready."

"Well, let's get started." Zhen Jiecheng nodded, "All units, get ready, action!"

In the camera, when the "stepfather" was seen walking out with the horse, the gift prepared by Chen Long was not thrown on the ground, but fell into Gong Li's hands.

But Jing Tian's body movements, facial expressions, and the tone and rhythm of her lines all vividly demonstrated her "indifference" to the gift from her "biological father".

Wow! That's interesting!
Zhen Jiecheng didn't shout "cut" to signal to continue.

Seeing this, Jing Tian became even bolder, and still did not "dance and jump" according to the script, running over screaming like a clown. Instead, she was like a dancing butterfly, panting, her face flushed, and her smile bloomed along with the sound of her cheerful footsteps tapping the floor tiles.

Her eyelashes fluttered, and she couldn't wait to perform the ladylike etiquette.

Turning around and looking back, the horse filled every corner of my vision, leaving no room for anything else.

The camera turns to Chen Long, from a close-up from the front to over his shoulder from behind.

The bitterness was obscured, with the lonely back as the background, Jing Tian's brilliance beside her stepfather became more and more dazzling!

In contrast, the conversation and thanks with Chen Long just now seemed more like deliberate politeness, or even respect given to his biological father!

Yet, in her eagerness, she still did not forget to show her elegant manners to her stepfather, which instead presented a more advanced and sophisticated explanation of "vanity and materialism".

If the original plot expressed the following message: Look, how superficial I am.

So now it is: Look, how annoying she is.

The former is the actor's perspective, and the latter is the audience's tone.

The effect is incomparable!

Zhen Jiecheng used the original settings without any changes, in fact, it was to take into account Jing Tian's "acting skills".

Previously, Kang Honglei was only given simple "teaching requirements", on the one hand because the kidnapping scene was very important, and on the other hand it was to take care of Jing Tian.

As Liu Yifei's half-sister, her brain capacity for performance is too small to store too much information. It will freeze!
But now.
"Pass!"

"Crack!"

"Pass!"

The filming of the scene went exceptionally smoothly, especially compared to the previous period of time.

After returning to the hotel after a day of filming, Zhen Jiecheng immediately waved to Jing Tian.

"Tiantian, come with me to the room."

"Okay, Senior."

He is called by title on the set and calls me senior in private.

This was Liu Yifei's reminder, and Jing Tian always kept it in mind.

Looking at Jing Tian's back, Gong Li asked with interest about the bodyguards and assistants that Lu Zheng had assigned to Jing Tian.

"Tiantian went to Jiecheng's room late at night, why didn't you follow her?"

"No!" the assistant replied, "Teacher Gong Li, Mr. Lu has told us that if it's Director Zhen, it's safe."

"Safety?"

"Pfft~"

When he came to his senses, he laughed more wildly than ever before.

He bent over, holding his stomach.

The bottomless ravine was revealed, causing many male compatriots to drool. Some of them immediately decided to go to the cinema tonight to contribute to the box office of "Miami Wind and Cloud".

"Safety! Hahahaha, Mr. Lu has a brilliant idea! This little phrase sums it up brilliantly!"

Inside the room, Zhen Jiecheng looked at Jing Tian from head to toe.

Then he went around again, from front to back.

He didn't speak until he looked at Jing Tian until he felt a little nervous.

"Now, I'll ask the questions and you'll act them out."

At this moment, just as at that moment.

The questions that were asked at Liu Yifei's home were the same in different forms.

Considering that some of the questions were Liu Yifei's class assignments, Zhen Jiecheng made some cuts to ensure relative fairness.

At the same time, the emotional area of "panic" was deliberately avoided, and replaced with sadness, embarrassment, grievance, forced smile, etc.

Then, Jing Tian was dumbfounded.

Yes, it means exactly what it says: a silly pair of eyes!
genius?

fart!
I've only heard of geniuses who can draw inferences from one example, but I've never seen a genius who can only execute fixed "conditioned reflexes".

Spirituality?
fart!
If you don’t know how to answer one question, you will get all of them wrong.

If it is to play a very smart character, then this "spirituality" is indeed 100% authentic!
Zhen Jiecheng thought about it and verified it.
"Come on, Tiantian, let's change the scene now."

"In a public classroom, the teacher suddenly calls your name and asks you to answer a question, but you can't."

"It's the same as before. The lines are improvised. Please start your performance."

"Ah?" Jing Tian widened his eyes.

"Pass!"

Zhen Jiecheng slammed the table.

"No need to continue!"

“Shen Yun is out!”

"Damn, this tastes right!"

Zhen Jiecheng grinned.
"That's what I said, how is it possible!"

"Although there was a little accident, who doesn't eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year?"

"Hahaha, that's enough, Tiantian, I feel relieved now. You can go back to sleep."

"Oh!" Jing Tian walked out of the room with a confused look on his face.
