Actors have no vacation

Chapter 143 Choice

Chapter 143 Choice
As the premiere of "Police Story" draws closer, the hype is kicking in.

Three trailers have been released so far, with different focuses.

It was as if he had cut a piece of raw stone with his own hands and bet on the best material. Director Chen intentionally showed off. The first trailer was completely centered on the villain Guan Chen. The aura, scenes, and editing made people think that he was the only one at first glance. is the main character.

Some movie fans worried that it was false propaganda, saying that Zhang Jingsheng was the protagonist in the propaganda, and it might be a trick to sell dog meat.It's not like this happened before. After a few minutes of guest appearances by big names, they were all cut into the trailer, and their names were written in the starring column, specifically to trick the audience into entering the theater.

When the second teaser came out, Zhang Jingsheng showed off multiple costumes and a kissing scene, which dispelled everyone's doubts.But everyone soon discovered that no matter who made the announcement, Guan Chen's strong sense of presence would involuntarily attract everyone's attention whenever he appeared on the stage for even a second.It was like a deep-seated joke, offended by that sharp energy, but looking back, I couldn't help thinking about it over and over again.

When Guan Chen was on the subway, he was watching the advertisement with great interest, when he suddenly saw the third trailer.

This trailer has mixed and edited multiple people, and returned to the most conventional action movie trailer process, throwing out elements of commercial action movies one by one, car chases, gun battles, fight scenes, and passionate scenes, making people excited and hormones surging.

Although it is shown according to the routine, it is still slightly different from the action movies on the market.

Car chase scene - the camera boldly captured the driver from multiple angles, making it clear that it was Guan Chen himself who was driving and drifting, not special effects and stunt actors;

Gun battle - Guan Chen patiently and meticulously refilled his gun when he passed the corpse after killing someone;
Fighting scene - every man who faces Guan Chen throws his fist, instead of obediently waiting to be hit by Guan Chen, Guan Chen either advances or retreats or dodges, firmly controlling the sense of distance;
Passionate drama...

"Not bad, really handsome." Guan Chen nodded in praise.

It has been less than a year since he came to this world, but he has been on the set for nearly half a year, and he has already gained more experience in making movies.

Just an action scene.From martial arts directors, to actors, stuntmen, to photographers and editors, they are all working together to make the picture believable and not violate the harmony.As long as one link in this chain is weak, the whole movie will be derailed and collapsed.

When he was filming "Police Story", Guan Chen basically only cared about himself and didn't think much about the subsequent editing.It is also thanks to Director Chen's low prestige, lack of qualifications, lack of experience, and other colleagues are very nice, otherwise he may not continue to act after being angry.

Looking at the preview now, Guan Chen is grateful to the team for taking all of his willfulness into account.It was his luck to meet such a team in his first work.

Guan Chen stared at the screen, recalling the scene of the filming at that time, and thought that if he was shooting now, some parts could be performed better.It's a pity that the movie is not a stage play, and the joy, anger, sorrow and joy after every "start" is regrettable.

"You are……"

Guan Chen heard someone next to him calling out to him.

Looking over, Fang Lu hesitated, his eyes didn't seem to recognize an acquaintance, and he glanced at the screen hanging on the side of the car door.

Obviously, this person had just watched the preview on the screen, turned his head, and found that the person on the screen had appeared in front of his eyes, felt incredible, so he asked a question.

Guan Chen was a little surprised.I didn't expect that after entering the subway, someone didn't play with electronic products or read publications, and even looked at the advertisements without self-esteem.

"It's me." Guan Chen nodded and admitted.Here's a little bonus for fellow ad lovers.

Not only did he not cover up, but he also combed his hair to look like an adult, wearing a linen shirt, dress pants and casual shoes on the lower body.

Today, at the invitation of Little Bear, I went to her sister's concert.

The concert sounds like a very high-end place. It was performed in Western movies in my previous life. Such a place has a lot of requirements, and if you are a little civilian, you will be blocked from the door.Guan Chen didn't know if there was such a rule in China in this world, if not, he would wear sportswear, so that he could run around at any time, and when he was sleepy, he could stretch his limbs more comfortably and fall asleep peacefully.But if there is such a rule, it will be very troublesome, because he has never bought a single suit.Fortunately, he is very popular and has a lot of friends. The milk tea and drinks that he usually treats everyone to drink have been secretly priced. He can borrow a set from the stylist of the crew to wear it.Sure enough, the stylist didn't stop him, and asked what the scene was, Guan Chen thought about it, and said it was Ding Wu and Xiaoxue's outing clothes.The stylist complied, and Guan Chen put on the costume.

"Can you sign me?" The other party's eyes lit up.

"Are you my fan?" Guan Chen looked at the other party's gender.male.

The other party shook his head, thinking that this person in front of him would become angry in the future.

"Take out your phone." Guan Chen licked the corner of his mouth.

The other party was overjoyed, and quickly clicked on the camera function, turned his back to Guan Chen, and entered the mirror together.

However, in the next second, Guan Chen snatched the phone, and under the blank stare of the other party, he opened Weibo, searched for Guan Chen, clicked Follow, and set it as Special Follow.A set of movements is smooth and flowing.

"You are now. I can sign for you." Guan Chen returned the phone to the other party with satisfaction.

The other party stared blankly at the phone screen.

"Where to sign? You are the first fan to ask me for an autograph, so I should give you some rewards," Guan Chen took out a pen from his pocket, looked for this fan, and thought about how to sign meaningfully.Finally, his gaze stayed on one place, "Just sign it on your clothes." Guan Chen grabbed the other side's clothes.

"Ah! No...still...my clothes are very..." The naturalized fan struggled violently.

It's a pity that Guan Chen's movements were extremely fast, and he drew a few lines on the clothes quite artistically, as if he was drawn by some bad-tempered urchin.

"In this way, there is a collection value." Guan Chen put away his pen contentedly.

At this time the subway arrived at the station and the doors opened.

Guan Chen turned around and was about to get off the car. Before he left, he specially reminded, "Remember to retweet and like it more, and recommend me to friends around you will be even better!"

The doors close.Guan Chen's number one fan was weeping silently while sticking to the handrail. A few people around him witnessed the whole process, and they came over and patted him on the shoulder with each hand, silently comforting him.

Seeing this situation, Guan Chen was very moved: "As expected of the clothes I signed, they are really in demand."

……

After leaving the subway station, Guan Chen adjusted to the sweltering heat of the evening for a while, and then walked to the gathering place according to the map.

Walked for about 10 minutes.Far away, beside a flower bed, he saw a little bear whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Next to the little bear is an adult man and a little one about seven years old.

Little Dot should be Little Bear's niece.

As for that man... Guan Chen's eyes froze.

The man seemed to be over half a century old, with a skinny figure, a crew cut, pale complexion, eyes like a dying eagle, and a mixed temperament of a seriously ill patient and a drug dealer.It is the child who sees the person who wants to hide, and thinks of the monster who eats people described in the picture book, and thinks of him.

This is Little Bear's brother-in-law? ...Guan Chen was a little surprised.He still remembered that Xiao Xiong's sister was a woman who was too gentle to be presumptuous.Xiaoxiong mentioned that unreasonable but capable brother-in-law several times.Based on the intelligence, Guan Chen made a secret profile. The other party should be a social elite in his prime, similar to the kind of gentle scum and pious villain who disregards human life in movies.

Although the middle-aged and elderly people in front of me are also very villainous and disregarding human life, they are not in the same style of painting in general, and are more suitable for appearing in the era of warlord separatism, similar to the mountain sculpture that occupies the mountain as king.Therefore, this person is likely to be the elder of the little bear.

"Xiong Er." Guan Chen walked over to greet Xiong Yu.

After seeing Guan Chen, Little Bear was very happy, patted Guan Chen's arm, and then introduced him to two relatives.

"This is my sister's daughter, my niece, Xiaoman." She leaned on her niece's shoulders, bent down and said, "Uncle."

"Uncle!" The niece yelled crisply, like a condensed version of Xiong Yu, who seemed to have a low IQ, and was indeed the gene of the Xiong family.

Guan Chen nodded, then looked at the gloomy middle-aged man next to him, "Where's this one?"

"This is my father." Little Bear rubbed the ground with the toe of her shoe in embarrassment. She knew it would be a disappointment to bring her parents to play with her friends: "I was about to tell you, but he originally said he would not come. , but suddenly appeared just now, saying that he had changed his mind and wanted to be with us."

Little Bear looked at Guan Chen apologetically.

Guan Chen suddenly felt a little strange, a little guilty.Because after his passionate interpretation, in the working circle of a certain shopping mall, it was rumored that Xiao Xiong's father was a big brother of the underworld who liked to sink people into the river.But looking at the appearance of the father bear in front of him, Guan Chen wondered if he had guessed correctly by himself.

To Guan Chen's surprise, since he appeared, Papa Xiong's tense face softened a lot: "What are you doing now?"

The tone of the question didn't sound like it was the first time they met.

Is an acquaintance?There is no reason... Guan Chen replied cautiously: "Make a movie, be an actor."

"It's not bad." Papa Xiong nodded and said, "I used to read a few of your full-score model essays every year at the parents' meeting, thinking I could write a book."

Guan Chen breathed a sigh of relief.These words explained why he was no stranger to him in his tone, and why he warmed up his attitude in advance as soon as he came.It turns out that this is due to the [children of other people's family] effect.The school held parent-teacher meetings, No.1 and the last place are always the most impressive.

"Is it because you influenced her to become an actress?" Papa Xiong asked Guan Chen.

Guan Chen wanted to deny it, saying how could I have this ability.But in fact, Xiao Xiong was really bewitched by his predecessor when he set foot on the road of actor.The predecessor, Huyou Bear, has talent, but this talent has not yet been revealed.Guan Chen probably won't show up one day, because with Xiaoxiong's talent, Zhang Jingsheng may not be able to teach him well.

Papa Xiong patted the empty seat next to him, motioning for Guan Chen to come and sit down. There is still some time before the concert starts, "Tell me about how you learned acting."

The little bear jumped out and laughed: "Actually, that's it. We can talk about this when we go home."

Papa Xiong ignored her and just stared at Guan Chen, very persistent.

Guan Chen pondered for a moment, and remembered that the time he and Xiaoxiong had in class together was pitifully small. As a last resort, he had no choice but to choose the things they had in class together, especially when handing in comedy homework.Guan Chen said: "The teacher praised Xiaoxiong, saying that she has great potential, has a unique style, and is best at comedy."

Papa Xiong said: "I am also a teacher." It means that he can understand all the subtext.

"Artists, without talent, can't afford this bowl of rice." Papa Xiong sighed and said, "If you don't know what talent you have, then you don't have talent. People who are really talented, even if they don't know , and everyone around will desperately tell him."

Little Xiong shook his head and disagreed: "It's not that important if you're talented or not. If a person only does what he's gifted in, and doesn't do what he likes, then the world will be so boring, and life will be so boring."

Papa Bear shook his head silently.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Guan Chen immediately understood, who and why Papa Xiong appeared temporarily for.

At the same time, he also understood that when he and Xiaoxiong were in the first class in the acting class, Xing Yan talked about the theory of talent and denied Guan Chen's talent and enthusiasm, why Xiaoxiong jumped out angrily to speak for him at that time.

Father Xiong is still disciplining Little Bear, saying that it is time for her to find a regular job. She jumped out of the company and went to learn acting. Before the age of 30, it can be used as a joke.But after the age of 30, even if you wake up and want to find a job, no company will accept it. "You are not a child anymore, think about your future."

"Actually, I think Xiao Xiong can do whatever she wants." Guan Chen said suddenly.

Little Bear peeked at Guan Chen with one eye closed.

Guan Chen nodded.You helped me before, now I help you.

Guan Chen thought about it for a while. When he was reading a book about patriarchy and misogyny culture in the film crew recently, he saw a certain passage in a book, which roughly said:

"The misfortune of women is that they have been surrounded by irresistible temptations almost every moment since they were young. People don't ask them to work hard, but only encourage them to slide down to reach bliss. 'A good book is worse than a good marriage' , 'Men are talented and women are beautiful', 'Find a good husband and you will be settled for the rest of your life', 'Be a lady, otherwise no one will want you'... When they finally discovered the truth of life and found themselves being fooled by a mirage , it’s too late for anything, their strength has been completely exhausted in their unsatisfactory lives.”

So be your own god and make your own choices.

In Guan Chen's previous life, he mixed from school to society, and met too many girls from good families who went astray.

If a daughter can’t be well-off and can’t bring her to see the good and bad of this world, when she grows up, she will easily cling to the man who “leads” her.

Because of the short-sightedness and ignorance of their parents, those girls were asked to be well-behaved and obedient since they were young, and they seemed to be protected. In fact, they lost their opinions and the ability to choose early on, and they were often easily dismissed by men who were shallow and claimed to be right. Attract and work hard to get the love of these men.

Guan Chen felt that he spoke very well.

however,
"The words are right, but in the wrong place." Papa Bear shook his head and said:
"Life is not simply [making choices only for the present], but [trying to have more choices in the future]. It is easy to make choices, but the difficult thing is to bear the cost of making choices.

"Do you know why animals like elephants look for something to eat in the jungle, and very few baby elephants are poisoned to death? This is not because they know what is poisonous when they are born, but some adult Elephants tell them what not to eat.

"Guan Chen, you are talented. You can act without any background at this age. You can earn a living as an actor. Ten years, 20 years, 30 years, or even longer. But Xiaoxiong can't do it." Don't play with sheep herders], this is the experience given by the 'old elephant' to the 'little elephant'.

"It was you who made her unable to make a choice."

 Bear will not go offline, don't worry, it's just paving the way for the next project.
