Chapter 122 Amazing talent, surpassing ten thousand people
"Xiao Zhou, why didn't you answer the phone just now?"
Liu Yifei's voice is very distinctive.
It's soft and waxy, but also has a little milky sound, which is particularly fun.
Zhou Yutang said in a deep voice: "We were filming a night scene just now."
With that said, he sent a photo of himself on the set.
"Are you not mainstream?"
Liu Yifei was amused: "Keep your hair so long."
"The plot requires it, so I stayed for two months."
Zhou Yutang explained.
Because in the first half of the film, the male protagonist has been in a relatively decadent state.
Decadent men are different from ordinary men.
The simplest way to express it is that you are too lazy to take care of your image.
In order to experience this state, Zhou Yutang did not cut his hair for two months while undergoing devil training.
This is actually a process of accumulation of emotions for the audience. When he shaves his decadent long hair into a short head, the climax of the whole film is reached.
"Xiao Zhou, when are you going to record the sound?"
"Do you have any hope of advancing?"
Liu Yifei asked questions one after another out of curiosity.
Fans of Tianxian may find it hard to imagine that Liu Tianxian was a loyal viewer of the talent show "Super Girl" and even mobilized her friends to vote for the contestants she supported.
Zhang Liangying, who was born in Super Girl, is also Liu Yifei's very close best friend, the kind of person who usually invites her to go shopping together when nothing happens.
This year Supergirl is gone, and Liu Tianxian is interested in The Voice, a music variety show that has become unprecedentedly popular before it even airs.
The auditions for The Voice will end at the end of the month, and the official website has also released audition videos of some contestants, which are quite popular.
"We haven't even started recording yet, how do I know?"
"Aren't you the boss? How could you not know?"
Liu Tianxian was a little surprised and said: "I understand, you want to advance directly through secret operations, right?"
"What kind of secret operation? I participated just for the popularity of the show. Am I really going to compete with those singers for spots?"
Zhou Yutang said helplessly: "The ratings did not meet expectations, so I will make a lot less money. By the way, the TV station wants me to participate in the first recording of The Voice. There will be a session to see friends' reactions, and I may be able to connect with you live. , you need to give some reaction."
"ah?"
Liu Yifei was stunned, but she seemed to find it very interesting, and immediately chuckled: "Okay, okay, what reaction do you want me to show?"
"Turn around quickly, spin around quickly, why aren't you spinning around yet?"
Zhou Yutang thought for a while and gave her an idea: "It's best to bounce around and clap your hands a few times to show your eagerness."
"Goose goose goose goose! I will definitely ask the instructor not to transfer, and I will directly eliminate you as a connected person."
Miss Liu was so amused that she laughed like a goose.
"Thank you for at least letting me leave the scene with dignity."
"By the way, what song will you sing then?"
"Heart palpitations."
"What are you talking about?"
Liu Yifei said coquettishly.
"I can sing, dance, and rap. I'm quite versatile. When the time comes, I'll sing the new songs I wrote during this period."
Zhou Yutang continued to tease the girl, feeling more enjoyable than petting a cat.
"Heartpalpit" is a song from the album Liu Yifei released two years ago.
In the MV, Liu Tianxian wears a miniskirt and white silk stockings to dance, and the scene is extremely exciting.
After chatting briefly for half an hour, the corners of Liu Yifei's mouth unconsciously raised slightly.
In fact, she had been in a bad mood recently, but chatting with Zhou Yutang now felt like she was relieved from stress.
To think that this guy dared to make fun of the songs he released two years ago.
Humph, is it so unpleasant?
Liu Yifei went to find her Walkman and listened to it again.
It does feel a bit shameful.
When the time comes when he sings well, I will have to laugh at him loudly!
……………………
Shooting continues.
Let’s continue filming Fan Xiaopang’s scenes first.
Because after her friendly guest appearance here, she will directly join the cast of "Wheat Field" directed by He Ping, with Fan Xiaopang playing the heroine and starring opposite Wang Zhiwen.
Fortunately, Fan Xiaopang showed considerable professionalism.
I totally got into character today.
It has to be said that her ability to occupy a place among the four-dan double ice is not just due to her gorgeous appearance.
At least his acting skills are better than those born in 1985 that Zhou Yutang has encountered.
The plot of this drama filmed today is like this.
Xiaomei's mother, played by Fan Xiaopang, stole drugs and had a big quarrel with her man Huang Zongze over the uneven distribution of the stolen goods.
After being slapped twice by Bosco Bosco, the man slammed the door and left. Fan Xiaopang was in a low mood and asked his daughter to go out because he was addicted to drugs and didn't want Xiaomei to see him in such a depraved and embarrassing state.
The scene when she was taking drugs at home was a bit astonishing as Zhang Jingchu's performance in "The Disciple".
Listening to Fan Xiaopang's moans, Xiaomei huddled in the corner and covered her ears. Her weak and pitiful posture was heartbreaking.
Because of loneliness and fear, she knocked on the door of Zhou Yutang's pawn shop next door.
"I just feel that you are very pitiful, uncle. Come and see you."
"The bed is made for you."
Zhou Yutang opened the door with a calm expression and threw the pillow to her without saying anything else.
With his ability, of course he knew what was going on next door and what Xiaomei's mother was doing, but he didn't want to pay attention to it at all.
"Uncle, do you know what others call you?"
"What did you call me?"
"They all call you Ghost, but do you know my nickname?"
"What's your nickname?"
"My name is Trash Can. My aunt said that because when my mother was pregnant with me, she kicked the trash can and broke her toes, so she called me Trash Can."
Xiaomei showed a bright smile.
"sleep."
Zhou Yutang still looked downcast and closed the door.
When the little girl's snoring was heard in the room, he appeared like a ghost and gently tucked up the quilt for Xiaomei.
Zhang Zifeng's performance was very inspiring.
——She was born to be an actress.
This is the unanimous evaluation of several veteran actors in the crew.
Liang Jiahui and Simon Yam both have daughters, and they are both about the same age as Zhang Zifeng, so they take special care of this little girl.
Zhang Zifeng's mother was also on the set, and she was very grateful to know that Zhou Yutang had specially arranged tutoring for her in order to keep her daughter's homework up to speed at school.
This little girl is also quite sensible. Even though she eagerly wants to play, she still listens to her mother and studies hard after filming.
Zhou Yutang agreed to let his mother and daughter go to Hong Kong Disneyland to play in Hong Kong Disneyland during the holidays after filming, and occasionally buy some snacks. He quickly gained favor with sister Zhang Zifeng.
The relationship between the two people has improved, and the tacit understanding has also improved, which has made the filming progress a lot.
The first half of the performance was relatively simple for Zhou Yutang.
He works hard enough and has a little bit of talent, so it looks effortless.
After completing the script, he wrote a biography of the character with tens of thousands of words, and spent several months trying to figure out the character's status.
Zhou Yutang's hair and specific makeup, as well as his slightly melancholy eyes, intuitively outline a decadent man who is worried about death.
He is not interested in anything in the world.
I just want to close myself off and stay in this dark pawn shop until I am forgotten by the world.
Only when he was getting along with Xiaomei, he would occasionally show some aura of a living person.
Most of the shots that captured Zhou Yutang were one-shots.
Not only Chen Musheng was pleasantly surprised.
Enthusiastic citizen Liu Qingyun even praised in public: "Ah Tang's acting is very good."
Film stars such as Simon Yam and Tony Leung were also impressed, and the entire crew was talking privately:
"Yes, I originally thought that this young boy would fail many times, but now it seems that he can definitely handle this drama."
"The Mainland is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Such a newcomer who has only debuted for two years is so sharp."
"I have been to mainland China for filming, and there were also unprofessional actors, but Zhou Yutang is really amazing."
"Talent, this is a truly talented actor."
"I'm now looking forward to the box office performance when the movie is released."
The male protagonist is the soul of this drama.
With Zhou Yutang's outstanding performance, the director and actors of the crew became more and more confident in this drama, and their attitude towards Zhou Yutang became more and more enthusiastic.
This is a sharp figure who can be seen by the blind.
Given time, the future can definitely be expected.
No wonder I can chat and laugh happily with boss Yang Shoucheng.
that's all.
Zhou Yutang once again experienced the feeling of being surrounded by good people.
Even movie stars such as Tony Leung Ka-fai and Simon Yam smile to him.
If Zhou Yutang is the soul of this drama, then these movie stars will form the backbone of this drama.
Especially the first scene between Simon Yam and Tony Leung.
Zhou Yutang watched the entire process from behind the monitor, enjoying it immensely.
In a luxurious office.
Ren Dahua was wearing an expensive suit and gloves, swinging the club gracefully while playing indoor golf.
When he saw his subordinates coming in with Liang Jiahui, he put his pole back and pointed casually.
"Awen, sit down."
Liang Jiahui put his legs together and sat on the sofa uneasily.
Ren Dahua threw the club aside, sat next to Liang Jiahui with a smile, and then slapped Liang Jiahui a few times without warning.
"Ka, Brother Hua, the intensity is not enough, do it again!"
Chen Musheng stopped filming and made a gesture.
"OK!"
An old actor like Simon Yam will understand quickly.
Second time.
Simon Yam was still personable and had a warm smile on his face, but a few powerful slaps fell heavily on Liang Jiahui's face, which all showed that this gangster was in an extremely angry mood.
"How did you do it? You threw away all the goods I bought from abroad."
"I asked the kids to go look for it."
"Awen, there are many people in this world who smoke marijuana, take stimulants, and some take heroin. You can make a lot of money by doing this business, so you can't do business with those rubes. It's easy to have accidents."
Ren Dahua pointed his finger at Liang Jiahui, and then glanced at Tony Jia, who had followed Liang Jiahui and was sitting in the corner, patting the golf ball rhythmically.
Lin Xue, a tall and mountainous horseman, understood and went over to take away the golf ball.
Ren Dahua crossed his legs, lit a cigar, and said disdainfully: "You are a loser, and so is this Thai guy."
There was even a smile on his face, but he held a cigar between his fingers and said devilish words: "Awen, don't say I don't take care of you. I only give you three days. If you can't find the batch in three days, I can't explain it to the customer, so I'll send you and your brother to the underground world of human bodies. You are in the human body business, so you should understand what I mean."
Finished.
Ren Dahua patted Liang Jiahui on the shoulder, stood up with a cigar in his mouth and walked away.
Liang Jiahui pursed his lips, spat a mouthful of blood foam into the ashtray, and turned to look at Ren Dahua, who was cheering from behind.
His eyes were extremely sinister for a moment, like an eagle looking at a wolf.
"OK! Perfect!"
Chen Musheng and Zhou Yutang nodded with satisfaction.
In this scene, the obvious message has been conveyed.
After filming, Simon Yam came over and apologized to Liang Jiahui: "Brother Fai, I'm sorry, I just used too much force."
For effect, those few slaps he just slapped were really hard, and Liang Jiahui's cheeks were a little swollen.
"It's just filming. Anyway, I want revenge."
Tony Leung patted Simon Yam on the shoulder and also made a joke: "You hit me with stones in the underworld. In this drama, I want the Thai boxing champion to crush you hard."
Tony Jia showed a silly smile and gave a thumbs up.
Although he couldn't understand the language, he could feel that the acting skills of these two were explosive.
There was also a burst of laughter at the scene.
Johnnie To's "Underworld" received 11 nominations for the Golden Horse Awards, 9 nominations for the Academy Awards, and was nominated for the Palme d'Or.
It can be said to be one of the most classic Hong Kong gangster movies.
In that drama, Big D, played by Tony Leung Ka-fai, was hit in the head with a stone by Ah Le, played by Simon Yam, because of his double talk while fishing. From then on, the famous saying "Wear a helmet when fishing" was left.
Simon Yam was very angry when he was just filming, but in reality he was smiling and looking kind.
But Zhou Yutang knew that this brother's identity was not simple.
The police station was required for filming in the movie, and Simon Yam could handle it with just one phone call.
Why?
Because his brother is the second-in-command in the Hong Kong police force.
Below one brother, above ten thousand people.
The crew worked hard and the filming went extremely smoothly.
According to the current progress, the film will be completed in two months.
However, Zhou Yutang is leaving the crew temporarily.
He is very popular now and is a studio owner, not just an actor.
This year's Mango Channel Golden Eagle Awards has already sent an invitation letter to Jiangdong Studio, and the awards ceremony will be held at the end of October.
Zhou Yutang received two nominations for "Want to Meet You", the Best Screenplay Award and the Most Popular Actor Award, while Zeng Li won the Most Popular Actress Award.
Gao Yuanyuan also won the Most Popular Actress Award for her outstanding performance in "Let's Get Married".
"There are a total of 15 nominations for the Most Popular Actor Award, and there are 5 winning places. Currently, Wang Baoqiang from "Soldier Assault" and Li Youbin from "Guandong" should be locked in two. Your opponent has the pattern of "Struggle" Zhang, Wang Wufu in "Jinggangshan", Huang Haibo in "Let's Get Married", Sun Honglei in "The Great Craftsman", etc. all have great hope."
"Heraldry, why is it him again?"
""Struggle" was very popular last year."
"I guess it will be used for hype by the media again. Where is Huang Xiaoming from "New Magic City"?"
"The production unit did not report Golden Eagle."
Li Shuang talked about it like a treasure, with a bit of excitement in his tone.
Zhou Yutang has just debuted in his second year and will soon receive tickets to the award ceremony. This is definitely something worth being excited about.
"Sister Shuang, here at Golden Eagle, who are the competitors for the best screenwriter?"
Zhou Yutang has some thoughts on the important Golden Eagle Best Screenwriter.
"Gao Mantang's "Crossing the Guandong", Lan Xiaolong's "Soldier Assault", Liu Heping's "The Ming Dynasty 1566"."
"They are all very strong, so I guess there is little hope."
Zhou Yutang looked away after thinking about it.
It's not that he doesn't have confidence, it's just that he has met a divine opponent.
Any one of these three nominated dramas can be called a miracle drama.
The key is that these three have been in the circle for decades, and their connections and qualifications are better than Zhou Yutang's.
In the human society of China, connections and qualifications are very important things.
"Then let me first communicate with the people in Xiangtai about the itinerary?"
"Okay, you might as well go and have a look. After all, this is the Golden Eagle Award. Let's get familiar with it first, and then make some friends."
Zhou Yutang nodded and suddenly smiled.
Suddenly remembered.
When he first debuted, Liu Tianxian seemed to have won a goddess award at the Golden Eagle?
At that time, the girl sent herself a photo of the event backstage.
the other side.
Hengdian.
Zhang Guoli was sitting in his luxury car, listening to his assistant reporting on his work, and nodded from time to time:
"Best Actress, Most Popular Actor, OK."
He took a look at the list compiled by his assistant and carefully marked the key nominations for "Golden Wedding" that might win.
After catching a glimpse of Zhou Yutang's name, Zhang Guoli took another look and nodded with a chuckle: "Okay, Xiaotang also has the most popular actor and the best screenwriter, which is good."
"At that time, you had the foresight and insight to invest in this drama, so Zhou Yutang had a chance to stand out."
The assistant on the side took the opportunity to flatter him, and Zhang Guoli smiled and shook his head: "Do you think he can't get the position if I don't invest? If I don't invest, there will be other people who do. People who are capable, like It is gold and will shine sooner or later.”
Zhu Li nodded repeatedly and asked curiously: "Zhou Yutang's connections are still relatively small. I guess this nomination is just for running around, so the chance of winning is unlikely."
"Best Screenwriter probably won't work, but I think Favorite Actor will work. Go get my phone."
"Okay, Mr. Zhang."
"Dial Mr. Ouyang's number for me, and I'll talk to him."
……………………
"Qin Bao, I heard that the boss will come to visit the crew today."
On the crew of "Classmates", during the break, Zhao Liying took Li Yao and chatted.
"how do you know?"
"I was chatting with Sister Fen yesterday, and she said it herself. I heard that the boss is going to attend the Golden Eagle Awards Ceremony and participate in the recording of the Good Voice program. By the way, he also wants to come and see us."
"Do you think the boss can win the award?"
"That's for sure. The boss has made several hit dramas on his own, and they are so popular. He will definitely win an award."
Zhao Liying and Li Yan were both artists at Jiangdong Film and Television Culture Studio, and the studio shared a room for them.
The two girls are about the same age and live and work together.
Zhao Liying usually has a lively and cheerful personality, so she easily got acquainted with Li Yao, and they became good friends who talked about almost everything.
"The boss is here!"
I don't know who screamed, and the crew suddenly had a small commotion.
One supporting actress even trotted out with a signed book she had prepared in advance.
"Chen Xiao, Mr. Zhou is really awesome."
Lin Gengxin, who played Xiao Haiyang, saw that even the director Lin Yufen went out in person. The producer, lighting team leader, makeup team leader and others welcomed Zhou Yutang in with their eyes extremely fiery.
"He's really awesome. This is my first time seeing him."
Chen Xiao, who plays Bi Shisan, also nodded and felt the same way.
Zhou Yutang was like a thunder that exploded in the mainland entertainment industry. His rise was almost miraculous. He rose to the top within two years and gained countless fans.
Even some newcomers in the entertainment industry regard Zhou Yutang as their idol.
I'm convinced. Yesterday, a brother voted for 16 monthly votes.
Thank you for your monthly ticket support
