Zhao Mingyang wanted to get up and go see if this was a borrowed performance and how it was filmed, but he was not allowed to watch it because he was afraid of spoilers.
After Wang Chenbo finished filming, Zhao Mingyang watched the tired Wang Chenbo come out.
"Have you finished filming?" Zhao Mingyang asked.
"My role has been finalized and will go online next month. The director also asked me to go to the theater platform. I don't want to go, Brother Mingyang. It's already embarrassing enough. Is it online in the theater here? It's also midnight, but you said a reporter would interview me
, how do I answer?
If my classmates and teachers see it, what will they think of me? If my family sees it, I guess I won’t be able to go back home, or I won’t be able to pass this test in my heart.” said Wang Chenbo and Zhao Mingyang.
Zhao Mingyang walked with him on the street and found a seat by the window of a teahouse and sat down.
The prices here are indeed not cheap. Zhao Mingyang ordered some food and drinks, which cost almost 200 for two people.
Zhao Mingyang picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Wang Chenbo and said: "Recently, I have been paying attention to some topics, such as why I feel that R-book animations are becoming more and more boring, and the current film and television dramas are not as good as before, etc.
.
You know, why is that? Why do people have these questions?"
Wang Chenbo shook his head. During the two months of filming, he suffered tremendously. He was scolded by the director and ostracized by his colleagues. He did not dare to tell his classmates and family what he was filming here.
The director asked for more than a dozen shots of the most important scene, which was too tiring and energy-consuming. Recently, I always feel a little empty in my belly.
"Actually, it's not that our hobbies have changed, but that most of us have grown up, and the things we like are no longer the same types as before. But what kind of things do people from ninety-nine to teenagers like to watch?
That’s the one you’re filming now. To put it bluntly, no matter how good a movie or TV series is, it may not last as long as the one you’re filming. If many people say the only thing that hasn’t changed from teenagers to middle age is that they like those girls on the hard drive.
Just on this point, the memory you give to the audience must exceed 99% of the male stars in the market.
Also, with your acting skills, you can act like this. Do you have any other baggage to act in the future? Is there anything you don’t dare to act? Look at the Best Actor with Thousand Faces and the Best Actor with Eyes, both Mr. Liang have also played you.
class.
People just think that this is a job, and you have to be worthy of every character you create. I have chosen the next movie for you. This is also called dedication to art."
When Wang Chenbo heard this, he looked expectantly and said, "What's going on in the next part?"
"Playing the super brotherly love between two boys." Zhao Mingyang said.
Wang Chenbo nodded, and then said with a confused look: "Brother Mingyang, you can't do this to me. How will I meet people from now on? What is super brotherhood? A friendship that exceeds brotherhood is..."
"How to meet people, what are you thinking about? It's a film and TV series with two male protagonists, two knights. It just wants to perform the kind of show where I have you in my eyes and you have me in your eyes. It's a female TV series.
A fairy tale drama adapted from a love story written by an internet author."
Wang Chenbo???
"Brother Mingyang, if I'm not mistaken, is this a female-video article from a certain Jiang website? Can the love story there be adapted with two male protagonists?" Wang Chenbo said. Fortunately, he usually understands Internet articles, otherwise he really wouldn't know what it is.
It's super brotherly love, so it's not like brothers anymore, that's...
"Of course, brotherly love, let's just change the plot content. When the time comes, I guarantee you will be a hit. There will definitely be many female fans who like you. Just like male fans like the fairy sister, you are the spear brother."
Wang Chenbo→_→
Damn it, can you not give up this name? Are you afraid that others will not know what you filmed when you debuted?
Fortunately, the filming of this movie basically ensured the final privacy. This is also the difference between Hong Kong Island and R.
"Brother Mingyang, I want to tell you something." Wang Chenbo lowered his head and said.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Zhao Mingyang asked.
"Well, I want to overdraw my salary and buy some clothes." Wang Chenbo lowered his head and said.
"No, I'll cover your clothes and shoes from head to toe. I'll customize first-hand products for you. You can wear them first before they go on sale. But the money still has to be given to you. After all, it costs a lot here. I'll go to Hening
I always say that letting the company advance your salary of 50,000 yuan is enough."
"That's enough. I can really wear that dress first? Doesn't that mean I have become a brand spokesperson?" Wang Chenbo said in surprise.
"Well, but I can't let you speak for me now. When you finish filming that TV series, I'll ask you something. Do you know there is a paparazzi named Fat Zai Qiang here?" Zhao Mingyang asked.
"I know, I'm an old paparazzi. Our director asked him to help with reporting. The director told him that our movie was about to be released and gave him 20,000 US dollars to break the big news. The director also took me to attend a conference.
At the party, I was forced to take the initiative to strike up conversations with a few girls I didn’t know, and I was also asked to chase them out to see them off.
I didn't know her at all, but later I found out that Fatty Qiang was squatting outside the door. One of those girls was the daughter of a real estate tycoon. I told the director at the time that I didn't want to have a scandal, but they insisted.
I was asked to hype it up, and I even had an argument with the director about this, and she scolded me." Wang Chenbo said aggrievedly.
"Wait a minute, I have his business card in my wallet. He gave it to me before. He said that I would have big news in the future and that I could sell him the melons in the circle. If you want to make some hype, you can contact him. You can also contact him to inquire about information.
But I heard that this man is two-faced and betrays people at every turn. He has a bad reputation in the industry, but he is very good at writing gossip, so many film and television companies will entrust him to write some gimmicks to hype up the works." Wang Chenbo took out his wallet and searched for it, and found
He gave Zhao Mingyang a business card.
Zhao Mingyang took out his mobile phone and took a picture, then returned the business card to Wang Chenbo, then took out some money from his wallet and gave it to him and said: "I exchanged this for 10,000 Hong Kong dollars. You can use it first, and then give it to him later."
While transferring the money to you, don’t pay attention to those people on the set who ignore you. You have to remember that you are different from them. You will be a super idol with thousands of fans in the future. They will give you money in the future.
You’re not even worthy of playing a supporting role.”
Wang Chenbo lowered his head and thought for a long time and finally said: "Brother Mingyang, I want to ask you a question, why did you let me film this debut?"
This is something Wang Chenbo has been struggling with, why Zhao Mingyang insisted on letting him film this.
Zhao Mingyang took out his mobile phone and sent a text message. He put the mobile phone on the table and looked at Wang Chenbo and said: "I know what you are thinking. You think I am just here to stir up the topic and make quick money with you. I don't care about your future life at all."
and career.
But if I tell you Wang Chenbo, I want you to become a super idol, do you believe it?
There's no need for me to lie to you. Let's put it this way: Wang Fan, the moment I changed your name for you, I just wanted to create you. Your appearance is really unremarkable, and your acting skills, let me put it bluntly, your
Your talent is not high, but everything you do is the same. You are too artificial and your performance is a bit exaggerated.
If you go to the showbiz like this, you may be a supporting actor in the 18th-line all your life. Even if I force you to be the protagonist for once, it will not make any splash.
The most fearful thing for an artist is that he has no characteristics, especially in the entertainment industry. It depends on the face and the recognition. If a face is unforgettable, you just can't be an important role, a main star, and an investment.
Neither the party nor the director will look for you, because you have no traffic, no topics, no attention, and you are one of the three no's.
Now, if you think about it, even a celebrity would not come to Hong Kong to film this, especially those who graduated from formal schools. They are now pursuing perfect characters, so there are basically no such films in Hong Kong, and there will be no such films in the future.
Yes. In fact, this type of film is really different from what everyone understands. First of all, it requires a professional team and has a storyline. The most important thing is that it is a film that can be released in theaters here and other regions. It is not actually a low-level film.
It's that kind of movie, everything is shot according to cinema movie standards.
But this kind of film has its own topicality, and you are the only male protagonist. Can you tell me, do your scenes take up half of the time, and are some of the scenes very small? The main ones are plot performances and character dialogues, and this
Movies like this will give you a sense of inferiority and shame, and your face will no longer be greasy and exaggerated, but will have complex expressions.
Okay, now that the scene has come out, you have got rid of the greasy pretense. The key is that you are not ugly, you are considered a handsome guy, then there will definitely be a group of women taking the initiative to search for you and pay attention to you. To put it bluntly, you are lustful.
There is no distinction between men and women in this matter.
After this drama is released, you will bring your own traffic. When the time comes, you will create an image of dedicating yourself to art and break through yourself. Anyway, the group of people who see you filming this will basically not hate you.
Those who haven’t seen it will also fall in love with your dedication to art and persistence in performance.
In short, you won’t have no characteristics anymore. You understand, everyone will have an impression of you, and then capital will look for you. You will become topical, you will bring your own traffic, and the roles given to you will basically not be male.
The second is the male, the third is the male, and maybe the first is the male, because many people are looking forward to what your first film that is suitable for all ages will be like.
As long as you have a topic, traffic, and recognition, then your resources will be endless to make movies and TV series, participate in variety shows, cross-border performances, and release music albums.
I am monetizing your traffic. I have thought of many ways to get you out of the circle before, but you really have no absolute advantage and will be replaced by other newcomers in an instant. But after you take this shot, your previous traffic will not be possible.
Now that I have taken this photo that has attracted so much attention, it will be impossible for people at the same time and later.
You may be the last leading actor in ethical Hong Kong films. From the current point of view, no one will be filming in the future. The main reason is that the times have passed, there is no market, the return on investment is not proportional, and there are no young actors willing to star.
Those who are willing to star in the role are all unremarkable, and they look ugly, so you may be able to compare with the previous group of kings and movie stars in the future."
"So that's it. After that, thank you Brother Mingyang." Wang Chenbo said.
Zhao Mingyang stood up, patted him and said goodbye. How could Zhao Mingyang tell him that he was already looking for some women's products for him to endorse, such as auntie towels and the like. He could still endorse them during this period, but he wouldn't be able to do so in person later.
Artists who have experienced the product can endorse it at will.
There are also men's underwear. Zhao Mingyang is also planning to let him endorse. He will pay for the endorsement first. If there is a topic, he must realize it first. As for the film and television dramas he is pitching, Zhao Mingyang also focuses on selling sex. To put it bluntly, this kind of plot is just a side ball, but there is no such thing.
What a way, girls love to watch it.
Before and after this type of film and television drama, basically all female fans like it. This is the most puzzling thing.
Zhao Mingyang walked out of the tea restaurant and glanced at his phone to reply.
It was Fat Zaiqiang's reply. He and Zhao Mingyang made an appointment to meet at a place.
Zhao Mingyang went to the bank to exchange 50,000 US dollars, found a styling shop, and asked the stylist to make him a hair extension, and then bleached his hair to a gray-white color.
He asked the makeup artist to make his eyebrows thicker. In addition, Zhao Mingyang hadn't shaved for several days. His beard had grown very fast. If he hadn't shaved for a few days, his face would be covered with stubble. He used whitening powder to smear his beard.
, and then wiped it clean with a paper towel. Without washing it, the beard turned a little gray.
Then I asked the makeup artist in the store to put on makeup to look mature, then paid the money and left.
I went to the mall and chose a set of British-style windbreaker leather shoes, and bought a pair of five-centimeter booster pads.
The leather shoes were a little heely, and with the addition of the booster pad, Zhao Mingyang was nearly 1.9 meters tall at this time.
After clearing his throat, Zhao Mingyang took a taxi and went to another district. It was already 5:20 pm.
The meeting place given by Fatty was a private room in a tea restaurant. Zhao Mingyang sorted out his wallet. The ID at this time was basically very similar to what it looks like now. This was the ID that Zhao Mingyang made after finishing the styling and taking photos, and there were a few more
A business card.
When he arrived at the tea restaurant, Zhao Mingyang spoke to the clerk in English throughout the whole process, asking where the private room was. This location was chosen by Fatty.
He must be familiar with this place. The clerk took Zhao Mingyang to the box. There are indeed many clerks here who can speak English.
Zhao Mingyang opened the door and greeted Fatty Qiang in fluent English.
Fatty Qiang saw Zhao Mingyang, who was about 1.9 meters tall. He wore a whip, brown glasses, and a black windbreaker. He looked like he was in his forties or fifties, mainly because the color of his hair and beard looked a little older.
"Hello, Mr. Zhu, nice to meet you." Zhao Mingyang said to Fatty Qiang, a short and fat man wearing a black fisherman's hat. Judging from his face, he was at least fifty-six or seventeen years old.
Fatty’s English is pretty good and he can answer questions fluently. Most of the older generation of Hong Kong Islanders are more or less fluent in English.
"Hello, what do you want from me?" Fatty Qiang looked at Zhao Mingyang and asked.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Peter. I am looking for Mr. Zhu this time. I want to ask Mr. Zhu about something. I don't know if Mr. Zhu knows about it. If he knows, this is the deposit." Zhao Mingyang took out a deposit from his pocket.
The envelope was placed on the table and a wad of money was taken out of the envelope.
Fatty Qiang took a look and realized, what a guy, he has a total of twenty thousand dollars.
"If you have anything to do with Mr. Peter, you can tell me," Fatty Qiang said.
"You know, something happened to a group of people in Omen before. My boss wants to know if any of those people have any children here. My boss wants to meet them." Zhao Mingyang said.
Fatty Qiang looked at Zhao Mingyang cautiously, and Zhao Mingyang could tell from his eyes that this guy should know something.
Hong Kong Island is a refuge for many people, so Zhao Mingyang asked Fei Zaiqiang for information, and Fei Zaiqiang is known as the know-it-all on Hong Kong Island. Even though there is a lot of information, he also survives by selling some information that is not available, true or false.
It's up to you to judge.
"If Mr. Zhu knows, you can tell me. If the price is not enough, we can negotiate. But if you don't know, I will go find someone else to find out." Zhao Mingyang looked at Fatty Qiang through brown glasses and said.
