Entertainment News: Follow Wang Baoqiang's Rise to Film Emperor

I dragged my large suitcase out of the hotel.

Seeing that it was barely dawn outside, Lin Zhi wasn't in a hurry to rush to the airport.

I was just about to find a place to have breakfast first...

Then I saw Director Gong Ruofei, who had just returned from a run early in the morning. She was wearing a black tracksuit and was sweating profusely, indicating that she had run quite a distance.

What's remarkable is that she got up even earlier than him!

Sure enough... successful middle-aged men all pay attention to physical fitness... Lin Zhi thought to himself, his mind wandering.

The two collided head-on.

They all smiled slightly.

Lin Zhi politely greeted him first: "Good morning, Director Gong. You're up so early for a run? You make us young people feel ashamed. You're really impressive."

As he spoke, he gave a sincere thumbs-up.

During the recent filming of "Youth in Action", Director Gong has always treated him quite well. At the very least, he has never made things difficult for him on set, nor has he ever made things difficult for him.

Of course... this is also largely due to his extremely good performance.

But no matter what, people have always been kind to him, so it's essential to show respect to them.

Otherwise, wouldn't we be ungrateful?

Whether before or after his rebirth, Lin Zhi has always been a grateful person.

It won't float.

They don't even understand basic manners!

"Heh, I'm getting old, no longer useful. If I don't start exercising, these old bones of mine will really give out..."

Are you rushing to catch a flight?

Gong Ruofei paused slightly, looked at Lin Zhi, wiped the sweat from her brow, and said with a smile.

"Yes, my flight is at around 10 a.m. I'll buy some things later and then fly back."

"Then you go ahead with your work, I'll head out now."

After greeting Gong Ruofei, Lin Zhi didn't say much else, then pulled his suitcase and said goodbye.

Gong Ruofei watched Lin Zhi leave with a smile before turning back to the hotel.

After Lin Zhi strode away, he first had a hearty breakfast on a nearby street, and then went to buy some local specialties from Changsha before taking a taxi to the airport at a leisurely pace.

By the time we boarded the morning flight and returned to Beijing, it was already two or three in the afternoon.

This time, he not only brought a lot of local snacks and specialties from Changsha for Wang Baoqiang, but also bought some for Director Guan Hu, Li Xiaoran, and Jiang Xin...

These are all his good friends in Beijing.

In order to maintain contact, it is essential to send gifts regularly to cultivate the relationship.

And it wouldn't cost much, so he was naturally happy to do it.

Upon returning to the capital, he immediately delivered some gifts he had brought back from Changsha to Guan Hu, Li Xiaoran, and Jiang Xin.

Also.

In addition to giving Guan Hu some local specialties from Changsha, Lin Zhi also thoughtfully gave Guan Hu a large red envelope.

after all!

The last movie I did was recommended by someone else.

Giving people kickbacks is only fair.

When you're out in the world, you have to understand some social etiquette.

If you don't even have this basic sense of social etiquette, you'll find it impossible to get anywhere in the entertainment industry!

"Wow, you brought me so much stuff from Changsha, it must have cost you a lot of money, right?"

"Okay, okay... If there's a project on WeChat Moments that needs a male actor, I'll recommend you."

After accepting the gifts from Lin Zhi, Guan Hu was overjoyed. Especially when Lin Zhi then presented him with a large red envelope, which was bulging with at least several thousand yuan, Guan Hu's eyes narrowed into slits with delight.

He repeatedly promised that if any of his friends in the film and television industry had suitable roles in their productions, they would recommend Lin Zhi to them…

In short, coming here to give gifts and get a rebate is definitely the right decision.

Well worth the trip!

"Director Guan, how's your film going?"

After delivering the items to Guan Hu, Lin Zhi asked this question before leaving.

Guan laughed and said, "It was filmed a long time ago, and the post-production is almost done. It will be broadcast on Beijing TV next month. Remember to watch it then."

"Okay, I'll be right in front of the TV on the day it airs," Lin Zhi said with a smile.

He really wanted to see what the TV movie "Get on the Bus, Let's Go" would look like if Guan Hu produced it a year or two earlier, and whether it would be very different from the original version from his previous life.

To know.

Film, as an art form of visual imagery, can be produced with the same script, director, actors, and crew, but if it's not filmed in the same location, at the same time, or against the same background...

Therefore, the results could be very different!

Because in artistic creation, even the slightest psychological fluctuation or emotional ups and downs can affect the final product, making it unpredictable and difficult to discern the true nature of the work.

and so!

Guan Hu managed to produce this film several years in advance.

Therefore, the final presentation of the video will definitely be somewhat different from the previous life; it cannot be exactly the same.

That's why Lin Zhi was extremely curious and wanted to observe it closely later.

Let's see how the filming turned out.

To confirm some of his previous guesses that he dared not make!

After leaving Guan Hu, without saying much, Lin Zhi saw that it was still early, so he took his things and went to meet Jiang Xin and Li Xiaoran one by one.

Neither of the two actresses has any acting projects this month, so they're staying put in Beijing.

They were overjoyed that Lin Zhi visited them as soon as he returned from filming out of town, bringing them a large amount of local specialties and snacks from Changsha.

We agreed to have a meal together and go out for a stroll together in the next few days.

Lin Zhi didn't stay outside for long. Seeing that dusk was approaching and it was getting dark, he went back.

The only regret is that Wang Baoqiang hasn't been in Beijing these past few days; he's gone to another city with the production team.

I called to say hello, and they said they wouldn't be able to return to Beijing until next week.

Lin Zhi felt rather bored that night. When he returned home, he found the house quiet and empty, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, so he went to bed early.

the next day.

To Lin Zhi’s surprise, he had just gotten up in the morning and was making sandwiches when he received a call from Ma Yun’s father.

Ma Yun said on the phone that he brought Ali's startup team to Beijing today on business and asked to meet with him while they were there.

After receiving the call, Lin Zhi abandoned the sandwich he had just made and went to see Ma Yun with great pleasure.

The two sides agreed to meet at the Badaling Great Wall.

When Lin Zhi arrived at his destination by taxi, Ma Yun, along with a large group of about a dozen people, were already posing for photos on the Great Wall.

Lin Zhi saw this scene from afar and guessed that the dozen or so people surrounding Ma Yun were the employees of Alibaba in its early days, the famous Alibaba Eighteen Arhats.

With a warm smile on his face, he strode quickly toward Ma Yun and his group.

Upon approaching, Lin Zhi called out loudly, "Ha, Mr. Ma, it's been a while, I've missed you terribly!"

"Heh, Xiao Zhi, I feel like you've grown taller? You're about 1.85 meters tall now, right?" When Ma Yun saw Lin Zhi arrive, he immediately took two steps forward with a smile, looked Lin Zhi up and down carefully, and then laughed in surprise.
