I'm just an actor

Chapter 9 Reporters

As the filming gradually deepened, Xu Rong deeply realized that the path of becoming a star was not suitable for him.

Through surfing the Internet in the past three months, he also learned a lot of things that he didn't know, and the focus is naturally on how to become famous and make money quickly.

After his analysis, there are nothing more than three points, either someone praises it, spends money on it, and feeds it on the show, or its acting skills are far superior to actors of the same age, or it is the way to become a star.

He directly ignored the first point, just like what Zhang Fengyi and Chang Jihong said to him, he didn't have the capital to attract people to spend money on him, but anyone who knew how to do it knew that doing so would only lead to nothing.

His image is not bad, but only a good image.

In terms of acting skills, even with the help of the system, improvement does not happen overnight. The acquisition of experience points from the system is too energy-intensive. There will be a slight increase.

Moreover, he is not well-known, whether he can have a film or not depends on Chang Jihong's mood, even if Chang Jihong is optimistic about him, arranges more than a dozen plays a year, and spends day and night in the crew, his health will not be able to bear it.

He was going to try to see if he could take the route of becoming a star, but after only seven or eight fights, he temporarily gave up this unrealistic idea.

His foundation is too bad, every typed one has some real skills in his hand, it is impossible for him to compare his imagination with other people's eating skills.

But what makes him optimistic is that he is still young enough and the future is still very long.

He also wouldn't compare himself with a talented actor like Xia Yu, who was a god's reward, and comparing him to that kind of person was like making life difficult for him.

On the seventh day after entering the group, Xu Rong ran for a week, and Xu Rong couldn't bear it anymore. In the first two or three days, he could recover after sleeping, but in the last two days, he often ran for half noon, and his legs It's like being leaded.

After a run, seeing He Zhengjun, who was in his 40s, running wilder than himself, he couldn't help wondering, could it be that his physical fitness is not as good as this stingy man?
He Zhengjun is not tall and chubby. He played the political commissar Zhao Gang in the play.

Sometimes it's too early to get off work, and several well-known actors in the crew take turns to treat guests, find a restaurant to eat some hot food, and drink some wine to warm up.

But up until now, he hadn't seen He Zhengjun invite him once.

"Mr. He, aren't you tired?"

After running three times in a row, when he saw He Zhengjun rushing forward, Xu Rong couldn't hold back anymore. What do you mean, we are all just pretending to be heads, and we don't show the camera. Who are you going to kill by running so fast?
He Zhengjun laughed and said, "What's the matter, monk, are you not competing?"

Xu Rong's eyes widened, and he understood in his heart.

"Haha, let me tell you a way." He Zhengjun stopped teasing him, and said with a smile, "I'm going back at night, and lie in the bathtub for 10 minutes."

"is that useful?"

He Zhengjun smiled and said, "Just try it and you'll know."

Before Xu Rong could test whether He Zhengjun's method would work or not, the crew welcomed a few special guests.

At around 10:30, the director Chen Jian took the loudspeaker and shouted: "Everyone pay attention, everyone pay attention, Producer Zhao invited a few media to come over today, they will be here soon, everyone perform well and show off our mental outlook."

After Xu Rong heard this, she didn't have any special feelings at first. The reporter came as soon as she came, and she wouldn't give herself an exclusive interview anyway.

But when Zhang Xiaojun saw the giggling Zhang Xiaojun's face suddenly became serious, and then turned his head to look, he found that most of the actors were similar, as if he had eaten half a bottle of Liuwei Dihuang Wan, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little warm.

For this circle, he now has a little understanding of it. It's a matter of whether he can act in a good show or not, but without media exposure, he can't make a lot of money.

Although his tired calf was weak, he immediately cheered up and prepared for the next breakout scene.

The plot is the Japanese army’s sweeping up. Li Yunlong led his troops to break through with illness. In order to cover another army led by Zhao Gang and the common people, he fought fiercely with the Japanese army. Carry him and run away.

Chen Jian probably also intended to let everyone recover their strength, but after resting for a while, the reporter still didn't come over, and he didn't wait any longer, and shouted: "Get ready, let's go first."

Xu Rong was half bent, waiting for Li Youbin to come up. In the previous shot, he pulled Li Youbin onto his back, but in the actual shooting, it was divided into two parts.

"Wait a moment."

Outside the crew, two black vans drove slowly. After Chen Jian stretched out his hand to signal to stop, he led the production director who was holding a stack of red envelopes in his hand, and ran outside the set to meet him.

Xu Rong straightened up and turned his head to look.

Looking at a group of reporters carrying long guns and short cannons getting off the car, he couldn't help asking Li Youbin next to him, and said in a low voice: "Head, if I behave better, will they report me?"

Li Youbin glared at him, and said: "Monk, I have to say something to you, we actors, acting in a down-to-earth way is the right way, and everything reported by the media is false."

Just saying that, his eyes kept glancing towards the reporter.

Ten minutes later, Chen Jian came back again, with an unprecedentedly serious face, and said, "Get ready, let's go."

The reporter who got off the car had already set up the equipment at this time, signaling to them that they could start.

Li Youbin suddenly whispered at this moment: "Behave well."

"what happened?"

Li Youbin pouted angrily at the reporters who had already set up positions on the sidelines, and said, "Look at the logo on the clothes, Central Media."

Xu Rong was startled for a moment before he understood what Li Youbin meant by "central media".

If it was an ordinary small media, he would pretend that he didn't exist at all, but if this media could mention him at seven o'clock in the evening, I dare not even think about it.

"start."

As soon as Xu Rong bent down, he felt a sudden sinking on his back.

Li Youbin jumped up without waiting for him to stand still, and he was probably too excited, he jumped a little high at once, and his center of gravity was quite high.

But neither of them said a word, the reporter was by the side, and it wasn't a real shot, so it didn't get in the way. What's important at this time is to show the "spiritual outlook" of the crew.

Although he was not very strong, Xu Rong did not hesitate. With Li Youbin's calf between his arms, he ran along the path that had been cleared by the production department. Although his center of gravity was not stable, he still felt confused at this moment. Inexhaustible strength.

In case it gets on the news broadcast
After running for about twenty meters, Xu Rong caught a glimpse of a puddle of crushed ice on the ground in front of his eyes, but due to the inertia of his body, his foot had already stepped out and could not be retracted, so he didn't care, he just stepped on it.

But when I really stepped on it, when I kicked hard on the ground, my feet couldn't help slipping, and my body lost balance for a moment, and I rushed forward, thinking: It's going to be broken.

"Hey."

Just as he was about to fall to the ground, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a black shadow shooting out from the top of his head with a "whoosh".

"Boom."

The black shadow followed Newton's second law along a parabola in mid-air, and after a muffled sound, it crashed into a snow ditch on one side.

Accompanied by a voice of "Aw", the scream sounded quite depressing and painful.

Regardless of the dirt on his body, Xu Rong hurriedly got up, ran downhill and helped Li Youbin sit up, and asked anxiously, "Commander, are you alright?"

At the same time, seven or eight members of the film crew hurried over, helped Li Youbin up, and slapped the slush on his body.

Probably because of the thick clothes, Li Youbin looked fine, but shook his head slightly, as if he hadn't recovered from the moment just now.

"Head, I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it. I slipped just now and I didn't stand firm, so I just"

After a while, Li Youbin came back to his senses, looked at Xu Rong who kept apologizing, and wanted to be angry, but he probably knew that he didn't mean it, so he could only say with a bitter face: "Brother, I won't stop you if you want to be famous, but you You can't kill me either."

As soon as Xu Rong heard Li Youbin's address to him, he knew that Li Youbin felt uncomfortable with the fall just now, so he hurriedly said: "Leader, I'm really sorry, I really didn't mean it, look at that, otherwise, you kicked me twice." Feet, relieve your breath?"

As he said that, he turned his back, pouted his buttocks, turned his head and said to Li Youbin: "Leader, kick it as hard as you can."

"Go, go, go." Li Youbin saw him sticking out his buttocks, and kicked him as if, but he didn't really use any force. He retracted his leg, and said dumbfoundingly: "Let's play."

Seeing that Li Youbin was fine, the whole team was relieved.

Director Chen Jian also secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, the actors in the crew were not big names, and they often joked and got acquainted with each other. If they really invited a big name, the fall just now would not end well today.

Only the production director and Xu Rong apologized to Li Youbin on the left and right. The production director is also responsible for the road not being cleared.

Xu Rong regretted the hothead just now, he didn't show it, and he lost his lord.

"Head, why are you still in pain, let me rub it for you?"

Li Youbin originally wanted to refuse, but the fall just now was really hard, and he groaned: "I don't feel comfortable anywhere, just now your kid almost gave me numbness from the fall, I told you earlier that down-to-earth acting is the right way, you don't listen , if it wasn’t for the cold weather and wearing thick clothes, I would definitely give you something wrong.”

Xu Rong sneered, and said, "I made the mistake of the leader, and there will never be a next time."

After the farce just now, Xu Rong didn't dare to think about anything else, and acted honestly.

But Li Youbin was like an old lady with a broken mouth. When someone came to the group, he immediately complained: "Monk, this guy wants to be popular and crazy. He almost threw me to death. You have to be careful."

Xu Rong could only smile wryly at this, who told him to tell the truth.

He also knew that Li Youbin was just joking, but this incident taught him a lesson. It is not easy to take shortcuts, but it is easy to say that if you are not careful when you walk, and your feet slip, you will have to pay a huge price.

On the tenth day after entering the group, the experience value of the system rose to 99 points again. Looking at the light curtain, Xu Rong couldn't help but feel a little excited. With a little more, his comprehensive evaluation would reach D+, and one of the five evaluations Items can also be promoted to C.

The reason why the experience value will increase so quickly is that he has thoroughly understood the script in the past three months. Not only his own role, but also other people's lines have been memorized. He also has a clear concept in his mind about how to act. When shooting, he would compare and judge whether his guess was right or wrong based on Chen Jian's reaction.

He had a vague premonition in his heart that the next three promotions were each a huge leap.

After his observation, among group performances, there are basically no evaluations that can reach C, only some special actors have them, and they are rare. On the contrary, professional actors with professional backgrounds generally start with C-.

Except for cross-bank development, most of those people are playing games.

He has a vague feeling that C- is a threshold. If he crosses it, he will become a professional actor.
