At first, I just wanted to make money

Of course Nini's acting skills are not that good!

She has not studied acting systematically, is not from a major, and has never worked hard in society. She has no in-depth contact with people from all walks of life, and she does not have enough nutrients for life.

But from the beginning, it is to seek girls, so it is not unusual to go all the way down.

Acting is a technical job. A good performance needs to conform to the logic of the characters and be unexpected. It requires accumulation and creativity.

Top actors either meet unique roles or play unique roles.

For example, Marlon Brando, his "The Godfather" is unique!

Nini's luck is not bad, her resources are not bad, she has encountered a unique character, but she has not acted uniquely - Yu Mo from "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins"...

What impressed me most was her swaying figure, but she didn't have enough soul for this role. Frankly speaking, there are too many seniors who played the role of prostitute well, such as Yueyaer, Yang Jiuhong, Jiang Wenli in Farewell My Concubine...

There are also many in Hong Kong, the typical example is Anita Mui in "Rouge Button"...

Compare it, it's far away!
But... I can still give it a passing grade...

At least it's natural.

The lines are not bad - she is the host of the broadcast, so if you have to struggle to pronounce words, you don't have to do it!
There is plasticity, but it is not enough to rely on one's own understanding.

Therefore, a good director needs to point out...

……

In the office, Shen Xudong didn't audition directly, but instead poured her a cup of tea, and then chatted with her about his experience during this period.

At first, Nini was a little nervous, and it was unlikely that she would open up to talk to him.

"During the two and a half years of training, have you ever thought about what to do if the protagonist is not you in the end?"

"I really didn't think about it..."

"He told you it must be you?"

"No...but he chose me, he must have his own considerations! I think it's not easy for him to spend so much money on training for us, and hire someone to give me English lessons, it must be very expensive, I don't want to Let him down and waste his money."

Shen Xudong continued to ask: "I heard that Zhang Weiping wants to use Han Tingxi, do you know about this?"

Nini nodded: "I know!"

"...Then are you nervous?"

"I only found out later, so I can't say I was nervous..."

Shen Xudong understood, and then asked: "After the movie was released, did Director Zhang remind you anything?"

"I reminded...he said, 'When you finish filming my movie, you will definitely be popular. So don't waste your thoughts on love in the future, and work hard on your career, otherwise I won't ask you to act in movies anymore'."

"...haha..." Shen Xudong was delighted: "Then do you like acting?"

"...It's not good!"

"Don't you enjoy the feeling of being surrounded by stars?"

"I haven't enjoyed it yet... I can't say it!"

Shen Xudong asked again: "What about being an actor?"

"Being an actor?"

"Yes!" Shen Xudong continued: "Mr. Chen Daoming said that being an actor is very enjoyable. You just need to figure out why the character says and does what he does, and what his motivation is. Everything will be fine." Follow the development of the plot in a logical way, without thinking about which sentence offended whom, which behavior hurt whom, everything is left to the play, you can growl loudly when the plot needs ", or you can growl when the character is weak" Humble crying, and the peace of mind of these displays...don't you enjoy it?Playing a role successfully..."

Nini was a little puzzled, she frowned slightly...

Shen Xudong simply changed the subject: "Then do you feel any difference from before?"

Nini shook her head: "It's just that it's a little bit harder, and there are a lot of interviews. In fact, it's okay to go out, and no one will recognize me. Maybe I'm just a popular face, not a pretty one, and nothing special."

"You're too modest... If you doubt your own appearance, don't you doubt Director Zhang's vision and my vision?"

"Then director... what am I going to do later?"

"No need to do anything..."

Shen Xudong opened the drawer: "This is the script of "Detective Chinatown". If you play A Xiang, remember to familiarize yourself with the script when you go back. Tomorrow... on the 26th, we will leave for Bangkok, Thailand..."

"Aren't you going to try my acting skills?"

Shen Xudong smiled: "The tone and attitude you spoke to me just now is considered a test play..."

Nini took over the script: "Then...then I'll go first?"

"Let's go,"

Hearing this, Nini turned around to leave, but Shen Xudong suddenly thought of something: "By the way, the hero of our play is Wang Baoqiang."

Nini was stunned for a moment: "Bao Qiang... Shall I act as a couple with him?"

"...It's not a couple, it should be a dog licking and a goddess..."

Nini didn't understand this word very well, and suddenly remembered what her agent had said, and asked Shen Xudong with a blushing face: "Director, can you give me my contact information, and I can ask you if there is anything I don't understand?"

"...Okay, add a WeChat account!"

……

Brokers are also difficult. Sometimes they know that this is a good resource, but they also know the price of getting this resource.

In the entertainment industry, getting a bed is not a price at all, it's called the rules of the game!

Keep up with the times - we want to enjoy the same treatment as Hollywood!

Of course, depending on qualifications and status, Nini definitely has no shortage of resources.

At the beginning of seeking girls, the attention itself is the top, but... again, high-quality resources will always be scarce!

What are high-quality resources?

First clarify a concept: the mainstream film circle.

What is the mainstream film circle?
First, major domestic film investment companies: Tianmei, China Film, Guangguang, Huayi, Bona, Shanghai Film, Wanda, LeTV, Media Asia (Hong Kong), Anle (Hong Kong), Jiaying, Emperor (Hong Kong), etc...

These companies control the production and distribution channels, have rich experience in film production and possess the highest quality film resources.

The second is to divide by region: Northwest Circle, Beijing Circle, Shanghai Circle, Hong Kong Circle, Taiwan Circle and so on.

Some of these geographically divided circles are stable and some are unstable, but it is not easy to get in, and you need to rely on the support of your contacts.

Nini must be considered Tianmei, and she is a prostitute!
The problem is also here, she is not a direct descendant of Tianmei, her management team is independent of Tianmei's agency - she is a signed artist of Zhang Yi's studio.

Generally speaking, Tianmei's top resources will definitely not be given to her.

Because the priority must be our own people!
This is the case...

Unless Zhang Yimou specially greets...

But apart from movies, Zhang Yimou rarely cares about anything else...

Is there another way to break the game?
Of course there is - a good relationship with Shen Xudong...

That's why Pu Lun insisted on letting her audition...

But... Pu Lun is not a professional manager - she was Zhang Yimou's assistant director before, working in movies, so she doesn't know many things outside of the crew.

You entered the office like Wen Yongshan, and you just squatted down...

What is this called?
This is called professional!
Oh... Wen Yongshan wanted to buy a house in Hong Kong last year, but he didn't have enough money, and Shen Xudong supported half of it...

The image of Wen Yongshan is very suitable for playing that kind of weak female role, the kind that can arouse the desire to protect!
Therefore, she is the heroine in "School 2010" and "Three Daughters of the Xia Family"...

"School 2010" is a PPTV hit of the year. Not only did the distribution price set a record of 110 million for a single episode (purchased by 8 video platforms), but it was also purchased by TV stations in Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand...

Moreover, the subject of campus bullying has quickly become popular, and even TVB has launched a film and television series on the subject of bullying...

Wen Yongshan also has his own masterpiece.

Oh, "Three Daughters of the Xia Family", she played Xia Mei, just that silly white sweet...

With Golden Harvest helping to build momentum, she is considered the best-developed new generation of Hong Kong stars——"Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate" she played Gu Shaotang...

Therefore, she is determined to win the "Tang Detective" project.

Shen Xudong was quite embarrassed...

Because he had promised Nini, he quickly asked, "How is your Mandarin?"
