There is a joke online about actors' acting skills, that is, they don't need eye makeup to make them look black.
The feeling that He Tiantian gives to Director Feng and others is no longer as simple as not using eye makeup, she is simply possessed by the character.
She is obviously a young girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, but her eyes are sharp and fierce.
Every move she makes is shrewd and capable, but she also has the charm and charm of a mature woman.
What surprised the screenwriter even more was He Tiantian's neat skills.
Although she only made a few unintentional moves, the screenwriter who had written martial arts dramas could tell at a glance that this girl had some kung fu skills.
So, before Director Feng could say anything, the screenwriter, who was in his thirties or forties and looked like a gentle pretty boy, excitedly asked: "He, He Tiantian, right? Have you studied martial arts?"
He Tiandian nodded and said modestly: "I have learned a little bit!"
More than just a little bit, in the just-concluded Madam Ma's script, she was the number one heroine in the martial arts world.
Although it is separated from the world of martial arts, without the blessing of scripts, the air in reality is polluted, and it is not realistic to develop internal strength in a short period of time.
But He Tiantian has the foundation.
When both the screenwriter and Director Feng asked her to show off her skills, He Tiantian found a broom in the corner of the room and used it as a weapon to practice a dog-beating stick.
The broom and the tiger generate the wind, He Tiantian picks it up, entangles it, guides it, or splits it, moving like clouds and flowing water, which is both beautiful and full of strength.
Hearing the sound of whooshing in the air, Director Feng and others were very sure: He Tiantian was not a dancer or a showman in martial arts, but had real kung fu.
Oh, this is very rare.
Ever since wires have been widely used in movies and TV shows, there have been fewer and fewer real action stars.
Whether it's a martial arts drama or a fairy tale drama, if you split your legs and spin around with wires, you will be a peerless master!
Where can I still have the joy and violence of martial arts movies of the past?
The punches hit the flesh, sweat and blood are splashed everywhere, and his skills are evident every time he strikes or lifts his legs. Such martial arts scenes are almost extinct in the current film and television industry.
Perhaps Diao Wei Ya can give the protagonist a more ethereal beauty, but the roughness of real swords and guns can make people feel more relaxed and happy with their blood vessels bulging and their hearts racing.
Originally, when the screenwriter was writing this script, he also wrote some martial arts scenes.
However, considering the current situation in the film and television industry and the lack of martial arts stars, Director Feng deleted all these clips after discussing with the screenwriter.
Director Feng felt a bit regretful, and the screenwriter felt even more deeply regretful.
This is a spy war drama. There are secret underground workers, but there are also domineering ghosts and fruit party agents.
Although real agents in history were not necessarily martial arts masters, they were better at lurking and gathering intelligence.
But when shown on the screen, if an agent can have nimble skills and fight fiercely with enemies, the scene will be very attractive to the audience.
Moreover, the male protagonist of this drama is not a red agent in the traditional sense. He comes from a humble background, has been in a gang, and has a foundation in kung fu.
It is precisely because of this setting that the screenwriter designed several fighting scenes.
It's a pity that reality doesn't allow it, so the screenwriter had to reluctantly delete it.
But seeing He Tiantian's outstanding performance, countless inspirations suddenly burst out in the screenwriter's mind.
Perhaps, the character settings can be changed again!
The plot can be richer and more dramatic, so it will be even more exciting if it is filmed like this!
The screenwriter's eyes were filled with excitement, and he felt even more eager to give it a try.
Director Feng has collaborated with this screenwriter several times, and they are good friends in private, so they know him very well.
As soon as he saw his appearance, Director Feng knew that the script would probably need to be changed again this time.
However, Director Feng believed in his friends' abilities. Both of them were striving for perfection. No matter how hard and pretentious they were at work, they were all working for the sake of the work.
The script needs to be rewritten, and the start of filming will be postponed again.
Director Feng is not in a hurry. This is a transformational work for him. In the past, his artistic films were well received but not popular, and his commercial films were not well received.
This time he tried an anti-war spy film. He wanted to make a really good film that would be both well-received and well-received.
It took two years to prepare in the early stage. Now in order to reorganize the script, it is nothing to delay it for another three to five months.
Although there is no rush to start filming, He Tiantian has already been decided as the heroine.
Originally, Director Feng wanted to directly get He Tiantian to sign the contract.
He Tiantian asked about the start time of filming, and it would be next spring at the earliest.
He Tiantian's birthday is in March. After her birthday, she will be eighteen years old.
At the age of 18, she is an adult in the legal sense. At that time, whether she is buying a house or signing a contract, she does not need to find any guardian.
"...Director Feng, can you confirm the shooting start date before signing the contract?"
He Tiantian tried to discuss it with Director Feng.
Director Feng's heart skipped a beat, "Are you having any difficulties?"
Nowadays, the entertainment industry is full of overturned artists, property owners, TV stations, crews, etc., who are all frightened.
Whether it's cheating, cheating, or falsifying academic qualifications, the most terrifying thing is all the red lines that violate the law.
But whether it is a moral or legal issue, once it is exposed, the artist will definitely have to cool down.
The film and television works he has shot and the variety shows he has participated in have all been removed from the shelves or simply banned.
Variety shows are okay. Just mosaic or blur the bad artists, it won't have much impact, and maybe it can create topics and make hot searches.
But film and television works are very troublesome. This is a complete work. How can you "patch" it on the screen at will?
Tens of millions of dollars are often invested, and the shooting cycle and cost are difficult to estimate. Whether it is face replacement with AI or replacement of people and reshooting, it is all very expensive.
Therefore, today's film crews are eager to sign various contracts and do various inspections before starting filming.
You can't have bad personal ethics, you can't step on red lines... Compared with these fatal factors, acting skills, traffic, etc., are not that important.
Director Feng prefers to use newcomers. In addition to the reasons such as high plasticity and low pay, the fact that newcomers who have not joined the industry has less black material is also an important reason.
Especially for a high school student like He Tiantian, who is 17 or 18 years old, apart from her family and the campus, she basically has very little contact with those messy things.
There shouldn't be any stain that could cause the car to overturn.
Even if there is, you can still use the words "Young and frivolous" to whitewash it.
He Tiantian smiled sheepishly, "It's not difficult to say it's difficult, it's because of my family!"
He Tiantian briefly talked about her situation——
She was "adopted" to her aunt by her parents who favored sons over daughters when she was born. A few months ago, her aunt got married and gave her back to her biological parents.
And He Tiantian didn't want to live with her biological father and mother who didn't love her, so she negotiated with her biological father, asked for child support, and lived alone.
After listening to He Tiantian's calm narration, Director Feng suddenly felt a little pity.
He is already in his fifties, got married relatively late, and his child is in junior high school. He is only two years younger than the little girl in front of him.
Director Feng is busy with his career all day long and rarely goes home throughout the year.
But he loves his son very much. No matter how busy he is at work, he will make a video call, talk on the phone, or send a message to his son every day.
He knows that there are too many irresponsible parents in society, and he is in a big dyeing vat like the entertainment industry, and he has seen all kinds of top-notch weirdos.
But Director Feng still couldn't understand how someone could not love their children.
Since you don't love her, why did you bring her into this world?
Director Feng sighed slightly in his heart and looked at He Tiantian with a softer look.
Born into such a native family, He Tiantian is really pitiful.
However, He Tiantian did not become inferior or cowardly because of her parents' abandonment and the indifference of her relatives.
On the contrary, she exudes strength and confidence from the bottom of her heart.
If He Tiantian hadn't said it herself, but looking at her temperament, it would be hard for Feng Dao to imagine that she had such an unfortunate past.
"I strongly disagree with the saying 'all parents are equal in the world'. The relationship between me and my biological parents is probably only legal."
In accordance with legal provisions, He Tiantian asked for child support from her biological father, He Shengli.
And when He Shengli and Wei Xue reach the age of sixty and need pensions, He Tiantian will strictly abide by the law and pay pensions to them.
If the couple gets sick, she and her brother He Yongcheng will share the responsibility.
Forget about other things, such as blood ties and feelings, He Tiantian really doesn't care about their charity.
"...I am too cold to my biological parents, and it might become a source of negative information for me!"
There is only one stain, He Tiantian is absolutely flawless in other aspects.
Having done a lot of villains, He Tiantian knows very well where the moral and legal bottom line is.
She is not willing to be touched in the novel world, and in reality, she will not be a real villain.
Director Feng looked at He Tiantian with a complicated expression, and sighed in his heart again, this girl is only two years older than my Bao'er.
As a result, my son was just like the silly son of the landlord, with a childish face.
But He Tiantian has been able to deal with her relationship with her biological parents so calmly and soberly.
So straightforward, so decisive... I guess many adults can't do it.
Director Feng could only say that He Tiantian's parents were so incompetent and broke his daughter's heart, that's why he got such bad consequences.
Of course, this is the truth, but the trolls and keyboard warriors on the Internet cannot be reasonable.
China has always emphasized "filial piety comes first" since ancient times. That is to say, in recent years, there has been a saying on the Internet that people should not be kidnapped by morality and should not persuade others to do good without suffering others' suffering.
But most people still respect "filial piety", which is the law. In fact, it is also partial to parents - parents may not raise their children, but when their parents are old, their children must fulfill their obligation to support them!
If He Tiantian really becomes famous and someone takes the lead online, her indifference towards her parents may really become a point of attack.
"...Okay, then don't rush to sign the contract, just wait!"
Director Feng was a little apprehensive, but he didn't pay too much attention.
As long as it's not the kind of hard-hitting scandal, there will still be no problem if this kind of internal conflict within the family is well marketed!
However, Director Feng did not insist on saying anything, he wanted to leave enough room for himself.
Just like that, the audition ended.
He Tiantian exchanged contact information with Director Feng and took a taxi back to the hotel.
Throughout the afternoon and evening, He Tiantian stayed in the hotel and typed on the computer.
The next morning was the scheduled interpreting time.
He Tiantian changed into more formal clothes. Her face was childish, but her temperament was able to hold up the occasion.
After arriving at the foreign trade company, the person in charge of the contact was stunned for a moment, but he did not question it too much.
The intermediary said hello in advance, "The interpreter invited this time is very young, but his foreign language skills are very good and he has excellent professional knowledge."
Teacher Guo is a member of AIIC and will not make fun of his professionalism and credibility.
Sure enough, when she arrived at the scene and started negotiating with foreign parties, this young-looking high school girl suddenly turned into a shrewd and capable industry elite.
The on-site translation is almost synchronized with the foreign personnel, and the translation content is accurate, detailed and very professional.
After an hour and a half, the video conference ended successfully.
"Ms. He, thank you, your Spanish is great!"
The person in charge expressed thanks and praise, and of course, did not forget to pay the fee.
He spoke a small language, was highly professional, and was pressed for time. When invited to other places, he had to pay for food, accommodation, etc. Adding up all the factors, the company directly paid He Tiantian 8,000 yuan for one and a half hours of work.
He Tiantian was very satisfied. With this job, she not only earned back all the travel expenses and accommodation expenses, but also had a small amount left.
"Teacher Guo, the work is over, thank you!"
After He Tiantian left the company, she called Teacher Guo to express her gratitude.
"You're welcome, haha, Tiantian, I think I made a small profit this time. You don't have to thank me too much, the main thing is that you are strong enough!"
The people you introduce yourself to can complete the work perfectly, which is also beneficial to Teacher Guo as a middleman.
The trading company will remember his kindness and will contact him as soon as possible when it needs simultaneous translation or when relatives and friends need it.
Because he is reliable!
Teacher Guo’s huge network of relationships was built up little by little.
"I still have to thank Teacher Guo, your network of contacts is really wide."
He Tiantian complimented Teacher Guo a little, and then got down to business, "There is one more thing, I want to ask you for a favor."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
Teacher Guo was a little curious. He Tiantian was just an ordinary high school girl. What else was particularly difficult for her?
"Teacher Guo, do you know any professors or experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"
He Tiantian asked cautiously.
"Chinese Academy of Sciences?" Teacher Guo's heart skipped a beat, "Tiantian, what do you want from the Chinese Academy of Sciences?"
He Tiantian thought for a while, carefully selected her words, and said slowly, "That's right, I have a program on hand, which is about artificial intelligence."
"I would like to ask experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences to help take a look... If it is valuable, then hand it over directly to the country!"
Although He Tiantian's voice was soft and a little uneasy, her tone was very firm.
