Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty-Four: Dongfeng Broken (Part 1)
In the Ice Breaking crew, Fang Jing hung up the phone. Next to him, Wu Gang took a sip from the thermos cup, raised his head and said calmly: "You've been busy lately."
In school, I was a singer-songwriter in a variety show, and I was on the ice-breaking crew, and Fang Jing was running around on three sides, often leaving right after filming. It was completely different from the serious study before, and Wu Gang didn't even get a chance to give me some advice.
"I'm a bit busy." Fang Jing smiled as he heard Wu Gang's tone was a bit unkind, "But I won't be busy in a few days. The variety show is coming to an end and is almost over."
"Alas!" Wu Gang sighed and said, "It's a good thing for young people to be hardworking, but they must also distinguish their priorities. I see that you are obviously not in your best mood these days."
"If you want everything, the end result will be to pick sesame seeds and lose the watermelon."
"I understand the truth. Now I just want to work hard for a few more years while I am young so that I can take care of myself in the future. When this period of time passes, I will slow down my work pace."
"Retirement care?" Wu Gang shook his head and laughed, "You have to provide for retirement at this age. How can we live?"
"Times have changed."
From his debut to now, Fang Jing's pace has not stopped, and his mind is full of work. Now he has three jobs on his shoulders, and at least he has some private space.
In the past, I was so busy that my feet never touched the ground, and my sleeping place was either on an airplane or on the highway.
Without taking up the topic, Wu Gang said, "What's going on between you and Gao Jing? What's the matter with Xu Ding?"
With a wry smile, Fang Jing explained the cause and effect of the matter.
"Today's students have a high starting point, weak foundation, and are all arrogant." Wu Gang said angrily: "I have been on many film crews in the past few years, and this kind of people are not uncommon. They still graduated from the film school. It's really embarrassing.
The school is a disgrace.”
"On the contrary, those actors who work their way up from the bottom are much more down-to-earth."
Fang Jing chuckled and said nothing. He wanted to say that these were actually normal, but Wu Gang was a little too extreme. The students had not yet gone out into society, and they would understand after they experienced severe beatings.
Although Jianghu Yeluzi actors are much smarter, their background limits their development. By the time they really come into their own, they are basically in their thirties or forties. In the eyes of capital, they have no commercial value.
"What, what I said is wrong?" Wu Gang's eyes widened, "Actors in our era acted for a living. They seriously regarded this industry as their livelihood and cherished their jobs."
"How many of the young people who go to film schools today are poor? Most of them are rushing to become famous overnight, enjoy the halo and honor, and gain both fame and fortune."
"They have a lot of responsibility for the entertainment industry to develop into what it is today."
After coughing lightly, Fang Jing said nothing. Wu Gang's thoughts were still very old-fashioned and he was a typical conservative. Young people in the entertainment industry were often hammered by old guys like them.
Two days ago, Wang Jinsong was criticized on the Internet for not memorizing his lines. The flames of war almost got to him. Some media interpreted that he was the one who didn't memorize his lines.
Finally, Wang Jinsong posted a clarification on Weibo.
"What, your expression means you don't agree with my point of view? It doesn't matter, we can talk freely today, and I also want to hear what you young people think."
Pulling up a small stool and sitting down, Wu Gang acted like I'm fighting you to the end today and you won't be allowed to leave until you make it clear.
"Okay, then let me tell you that I will sacrifice my life to accompany you." Fang Jing also found a stool.
"It's not that serious. You are a leader of the younger generation. I also want to hear your opinion."
"Then let me tell you, if I offend you, don't blame me."
"Say whatever you want, I'm not angry."
Organizing the language, Fang Jing said seriously: "Teacher Wu, I think you are out of date."
"What did you say?"
"It's not that the acting skills are outdated, it's that the thinking is outdated." Fang Jing said hurriedly, "I asked many seniors that people of your generation entered the industry just to make a living, and the same is true for today's actors."
"It's just that everyone pursues different ideas. In this era, there is no shortage of food. As long as you are not lazy, you will never die of hunger. It takes two thousand a month to wash the dishes. Food and clothing are no longer the goal."
"There is nothing wrong with young actors pursuing fame and fortune. Whoever joins this industry doesn't want to be famous, and whoever doesn't want to be the king of movies is admired by everyone."
"The high salary is due to the capital of the agency. Who can refuse if you are offered a salary of 100 million for a movie? Even if the majority is given to the company, you still have tens of millions left. Only a fool would not want it."
"As for those who are dedicated but not dedicated, that's another thing. Yes, many young actors are not dedicated now, but there are such people at all ages. You can't just throw the blame on young people."
"As far as I know, reciting lines 12345 only started in your era. Old actors also have big names. Those who are not dedicated to their work cannot overthrow a whole boat of people with one stroke."
"Besides, no one has learned from scratch, and no one knows everything when they enter the industry. For a young man in his twenties, you need him to have good acting skills, a correct attitude, and strong script skills. He also needs to have a low salary and be able to endure hardships and stand hard work."
"How about you find me a person like this?"
Wu Gang was speechless and so angry that he had nothing to say. What Fang Jing said was true. Someone had read 1234 more than ten years ago. When he heard the last sentence, he pointed at Fang Jing and said, "Aren't you the one?"
"When you are in your twenties, you have a very upright attitude when you join the cast, your salary is not high, and you can endure hardships. Although your lines are so-so, you are worth tens of billions anyway. If you have the heart, you are already more than many people. You can do this, why don't they?
Can?"
After a long while, Fang Jing held back a sentence, "I won't tell you."
People are different. To be able to reach this point, his mentality has long been different and he has a passion for this industry.
Besides, although he is worth tens of billions, that is net worth, which is two different things from net worth. The cash he can now withdraw is less than 300 million.
Patting his butt, Fang Jing stood up and said, "There's nothing to do tonight. I'm going to record the show. I'll be back tomorrow."
…
In the evening, I am a singer-songwriter.
After these few episodes, everyone has more or less a certain understanding of this program, and Chen Yihan knows that her departure is not far away.
According to the nature of the show, this time the lower zone will definitely play against the middle zone. Who is in the middle zone? Fang Jing, Liang Bo, Yu Wenwen, Wang Yuan, the last one is extremely popular, and the first three are very strong.
Hot Dog, her, and Zeng Yike, the chance that the three of them can win is very small.
"The rules of this program are as follows: the middle district challenges the lower district, and the upper district challenges the middle district. Those who have already accepted the challenge will no longer challenge."
"It's over." Hearing the rules of the competition, Zeng Yike and Chen Yihan felt a chill in their hearts.
The initiative is in their hands. If they are allowed to choose, they may still be able to struggle. Now they don't even have the chance to struggle. Whoever is in Fang's point will die, whoever is in Liangbo's point will die, and Yu Wenwen is also difficult to deal with.
"So good, it's finally my turn to take the initiative." Fang Jing said to the camera: "This time I will choose Brother Dog."
"I choose Chen Yihan." Liang Bo followed closely.
"Sister Wenwen, you choose first." Wang Yuan did not choose his opponent and gave the opportunity to Yu Wenwen.
"You don't choose?" Yu Wenwen was surprised.
There are four people in the middle area and three people in the lower area. One of them is destined to be alone. This is not a good thing. The person who is alone has to be called by Wang Sulong.
Didn't he choose someone without looking at Fang Jinggang's words? He was just afraid of meeting Wang Sulong.
"It's okay, it doesn't matter whoever you choose, I just like the strong ones."
"Young man is so tough? Then I'll choose Zeng Yi. You wish for yourself."
