Chapter 547 Dont be in a hurry about getting married
Fortunately, Wu Di is a very clear-minded person and has a clear mind.
When an artist is in the industry, the most important thing is to achieve oneself, whether it is career or personal achievement.
If you want to achieve results and gain recognition in the industry, the most important thing is to have opportunities, and it is not just an ordinary opportunity, it must be an excellent opportunity.
The reality is so cruel. If you want to become famous, the efficiency is definitely different if you get ten mediocre opportunities and if you get one excellent opportunity.
For example, when Wu Di was working as an extra in the past, even ten extra opportunities could not catch up with one of Zhang Feng's movies.
The principle is the same.
Some people soar into the sky and become famous as soon as they enter the industry, while some people remain unknown for many years and have many works, but they just can't become famous.
The difference lies here, it is the quality of the work.
All in all, as an actor, the ultimate goal is to become popular and get better acting opportunities.
As for those popular little students who are famous for their popularity, in fact, they are so keen on maintaining their popularity because they want to use their popularity in exchange for better acting opportunities.
Its purpose is just to use popularity to gain better connections.
Therefore, the ultimate goal of all the hype, marketing, and chasing is to obtain better opportunities, but for Wu Di, these prerequisites are no longer important.
With connections, including Lao Zhang and Xiao Zhang, Wu Di was already a man standing in Rome.
And of course there is no need to worry about opportunities.
So choosing Zhang Feng is basically beneficial to Wu Di's personal career development. Fans are of course very important, but they are not a must-have for being in the circle.
Popularity is useful only if these fans can be converted into actual consumption power and generate income for celebrities. Otherwise, popularity is illusory.
As for the balance between the two, Wu Di had already thought about it very clearly before the skin change was officially released.
So, he decisively gave up the so-called popularity route and joined Zhang Feng.
Moreover, in order to choose this path, Wu Di also made a lot of follow-up preparations.
Not only do I need to act well, but I also need to set up my own studio as soon as possible. At the same time, I also need to continue to explore the path of directing.
If he can really successfully embark on the path of directing, then Wu Di's life will be much easier.
Fundamentally speaking, in the entertainment industry, directors still have more say, not to mention that directors do not need to film all year round.
It is enough to have a well-received movie in two or three years, and it can completely maintain its status and influence in the industry.
This is completely different from actors.
No matter how popular an actor was before, once his works are discontinued and there is no new work for two years, his popularity will decline rapidly.
Often a popular star has no new works for two years. When he comes back, his fan base that had strong appeal before has almost disappeared.
The director would not have such concerns.
Most of the movie fans who are dedicated to directors are very affectionate. They prefer directors who can produce high-quality films to directors who are diligent.
You can wait for one year, you can wait for two years. Don't keep teasing me just to maintain your so-called popularity. This is absolutely intolerable.
Moreover, there is an invisible benefit here, which Wu Di never mentioned to others, and even Zhang Feng didn't know about it.
As a director, he can get rid of the constraints of the actor system faster.
After all, I am the director and you are the actor system. You cannot provide me with the help I need.
So the current situation is a mismatch between supply and demand.
If that's the case, why not untie it? You can't buy what you want even if you have money and points.
This is the so-called switching track. Only in this way can Wu Di be free.
My thoughts wandered far away and I thought about a lot.
But at this moment, Lao Zhang finally coughed a few times and spoke out.
"I see, you should have told me earlier!"
Tell me earlier?
If you had told me earlier, you would have agreed?
Lao Zhang really likes to hang his waist.
In fact, as an important investor, as long as Wu Di spoke, Lao Zhang should immediately arrange a role for Jianbing in order to show his sincerity.
There is no need for Wu Di to waste so much spit.
"Mr. Zhang, I actually feel a little embarrassed. After all, I don't know exactly what kind of characters this movie needs and what kind of personal characteristics they have. Moreover, I am not the leading actor myself, so I still want to cast him.
For Mr. Zhang, it is a bit too much to ask someone to join the team."
"However, please consider it."
In fact, Wu Di didn't need to maintain such a humble tone when talking to Lao Zhang. Others didn't know it, but Lao Zhang and his daughter knew it very well.
Without Wu Di and the relationship between Wu Di and Ranmasanti, the investment in these two films would have encountered great difficulties.
If you break away from your identity as an actor and only consider your identity as the son of Wu Di's investor, it would be extremely easy to bring a friend of yours into the group.
What's more, Wu Di didn't recommend any Sanwu products to the crew. This is Uncle Jianbing, who really has acting skills and qualifications.
Even if it's Lao Zhang's movie, if he only plays a supporting role, his qualifications are completely sufficient.
However, even so, Wu Di has always been good-tempered.
Of course it's because he has a good temper and sincerely wants to get things done and doesn't want to leave a bad impression on the other party.
Although people like Lao Zhang have to sacrifice their face in order to attract investment, they still have to save face in the end.
I'm just shy about talking about money.
You always use your identity as an investor to pressure him. In order to attract investment and make movies, he will probably be willing to be pressured.
But that's all done as a last resort, not because you really want to do it.
Therefore, for such a famous director, he will not be without Liang Zi in his heart, and will gradually accumulate into complaints, which will seriously affect the future cooperation between the two.
As for Wu Di, he actually doesn't care.
Ranmasanti is not his psychological mother, and there is always a layer of separation between the two of them.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Therefore, he actually does not have much true feelings about the fact that he has a rich mother and a strong backer.
Although I will use it when I should, it is still different from the real mother-child relationship after all.
He has never seen the real money of Ranmasanti, never enjoyed it, and is not covetous.
If Ms. Lan lost money on her investment, although Wu Di would feel very regretful and sorry, he would not be particularly resentful.
Because he never felt that there was any necessary connection between Ms. Lan's money and him.
So far, although he has benefited a lot from Ms. Lan, he has never taken the initiative to ask for money from Ms. Lan.
In addition to helping the crew attract investment, this is of course also for the project, not specifically for him personally.
It is precisely because of this indifferent attitude that Wu Di can be so carefree.
In this mixed entertainment industry, he still regards himself as a new actor and keeps a very low profile.
Regardless of whether he is dealing with Lao Zhang or Lao Huang, or any well-known director or actor, his attitude is very upright and extremely humble.
In doing so, he does not feel any psychological pressure.
After all, in the eyes of the outside world, he is indeed a newcomer with a background in group performances, and both Zhang and Zhang are his great benefactors.
When facing big bosses in the industry, it is natural to have a good attitude.
What's more, with their current relationship, Lao Zhang doesn't have any excessive demands on Wu Di. He just wants to say some auspicious words. What's the point? It won't hurt his muscles and bones.
"Wu Di, we are partners now. You don't have to be so modest about everything. If you have any requests, just ask."
"Don't worry, I've made a note of this. Go talk to Jianbing. He can come over when the movie officially starts shooting."
"The role is definitely there, and there is no need for an audition. With his acting skills, he can do it directly."
"That's great!"
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang!" Wu Di happily agreed.
The big battle in the Spring Festival stalls has also passed, the box office championship has been locked in, and the reskin has achieved an overall victory.
You can go and relax for a while.
Wu Di and Zhang Feng left their seats one after another. They were discussing going on a date or something. Wu Di suggested that they go to the movies!
Just look at Master!
Immediately, Zhang Feng gave me a huge eye roll: "You have to go, but I won't watch it. I'm not interested in that kind of subject matter."
Then there's no way.
Wu Di was very disappointed.
"Then what do you want to do?"
"No matter what, I'll accompany you!"
That's the gentlemanly thing to do, gentleman!
As a considerate boyfriend, of course he must obey his girlfriend's instructions at this time.
Zhang Feng smiled slightly, with a sly look in his eyes.
Wu Di secretly screamed, but it was too late.
"Go get a perm!"
"Change your image."
"What?"
"Going to get a perm?"
"Can I not participate?"
Although as a man with short hair, Wu Di basically has nothing to do with perming, whether in this life or the previous life.
But this activity is time-consuming and laborious, and he knows it very well.
Who can stand having to sit there for two or three hours at all times?
Even if I can bear it mentally, my butt can't stand it either.
How could Zhang Feng spare him? He was the one who blew it by himself, so Zhang Feng naturally wouldn't be polite. He grabbed his arm and said, "No!"
"I'm going!"
"And even today, I still need you to accompany me!"
Resistance is futile. Who is Zhang Feng? She is usually stubborn to death when she has no demands. At this time, of course, what she sets her sights on must be done.
Without any explanation, Wu Di was dragged away.
Behind the sight, the lady also came over. Seeing the two young people looking so harmonious, she was also comforted.
"Lao Zhang, tell me, when is the best time to serve them both?"
"No way! Are you in such a hurry?"
Zhang Feng and Wu Di are both still very young and have just met. In Lao Zhang's impression, there is no basis for marriage at all.
However, in the end, it is women who have more say in marriage and love.
"You don't understand this."
"It's not good for men and women to delay their interactions for too long, especially for girls."
"How do you say it?" For the sake of his daughter, Lao Zhang, who is obviously not interested in these things, can still reluctantly listen.
"The best time for two young people to be together is one year at most. Beyond this time, no matter how good they were before, the relationship will slowly fade away."
"What's more, getting married is something that requires a bit of impulse before you can make up your mind. If two people have been in love for a long time, are they still passionate and excited?"
"If you don't have any, then naturally you won't be able to get married."
"This is the reason why many couples, who have been together for many years and have a good relationship, end up parting ways."
"It's not that there's no emotion anymore, it's just that there's no passion. At least there's no passion for marriage. Two people have been living together for a long time and are together every day. What difference does it make if they get married or not?"
"Yeah, that makes sense." Lao Zhang nodded in agreement.
The lady continued: "So, if love lasts for a long time, it is the most detrimental to girls, but it doesn't matter to men."
Although Madam usually looks like a spoiled wife, in fact, she has always been very shrewd and has a clear mind and clear eyes.
Isn’t that what a relationship is like?
Sometimes, there is a difference between having a certificate and not having a certificate, and there is a difference between having children and not having children. Although as a modern woman, I do not really agree with this view and do not want to be influenced by this concept, the reality is still reality. As a mother
, of course you have to think more about your daughter.
She didn't want to see Zhang Feng working hard to pave the way for Wu Di, only to be kicked by Wu Di in the end.
Although people will grow and change, no one can predict what this person will become in the future, and there is no guarantee that the relationship between the two of them will always be so harmonious.
But at least from now on, Wu Di is still a reliable young man and has the potential to continue to develop.
The most important thing is that he has a good background and has a rich mother, so he is already in a very good position.
Of course, we should take advantage of the good relationship between the two of us and hold on tightly!
"Think about it again, how long did the two of us date before we got married?"
When it comes to this, Lao Zhang still has a say.
"More than half a year, definitely less than ten months. I remember when I first met you, it was spring and the peach blossoms were just blooming. Later, when we got married, it was not the National Day yet!"
"Yes, you see, we also got married after dating for half a year. If we delay it for a few years, it won't necessarily be the case."
"Then you mean to let Xiaofeng get married now?"
Lao Zhang is still not happy.
It's not that he doesn't like Wu Di, it's just that it's too fast. Moreover, from the perspective of Zhang Feng's personal image, she has only one work now and has just become famous.
Although the film industry is not very interested in the director's relationship status, and the audience doesn't care either.
But in terms of specific interests, female directors who are absolutely single, or unmarried, have higher commercial value and are more topical.
The reason is simple: rare things are more valuable.
The same goes for people.
There are already very few female directors, and those who are not married and can maintain a relatively fresh image are even rarer. Even with the qualifications of Lao Zhang, I can't even think of one.
Nowadays, whether it is Wu Di or Zhang Feng, their careers have just started and they are developing very well.
Shouldn’t we take advantage of our youth to consolidate our career?
