Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 261 Daily Life
Zhang Yuanjun promised his girlfriend when he was still filming that he would arrange a romantic date for her when the filming was completed.

When Zhang Yuanjun wanted to make arrangements, Liu Yifei said no, and solemnly said she wanted to lose weight: "We'll talk about it after I lose 10 pounds."

"I don't think you are fat."

"I'm not trying to lose weight for you. This is the consciousness of being an actress. If you can't even control your own body shape, then what else can you control?"

Even Liu Xiaoli was puzzled. She knew that Zhang Yuanjun was back from filming, and she thought that her daughter would get tired of him for a few days. She was already prepared for her daughter not to go home for a few days.

But unexpectedly, her daughter had hot pot at Zhang Yuanjun's house without spending the night, and went home at 9 o'clock that night.

The first thing Liu Yifei said when she came home was: "Mom, don't cook my meals in the future. I want to lose weight."

"Losing weight again? Are you taking on a new movie?"

"No."

"Are you disliked by Xiao Zhang?"

"No."

"Then why did you lose weight?"

"It's just that I've gained weight. I'm already 110 pounds. I want to lose 10 pounds."

Liu's mother joked: "You are just worried that Xiao Zhang won't like you when you get fat. Women only look good to please themselves. I don't know you yet."

"Oh, it really has nothing to do with him." But no matter how Liu Yifei explained, her mother just didn't believe it.

"Reduce it, reduce it, I'm too lazy to care about you."

Then the next day, Liu Yifei slept until 10:40 when her mother pulled her out of bed.

"You're not talking about losing weight. Is this how you lose weight?"

"Mom, 5 minutes, just 5 minutes."

"It won't work for even one minute, get up quickly." After Liu Xiaoli finished speaking, she was about to lift her daughter's quilt.

Liu Yifei was grunting and holding on to the quilt without letting go.

"Look, do you still look like a 21-year-old?" Liu Xiaoli scolded with a smile, and slapped her quilt hard, "Get up quickly, I'm going to buy groceries, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

"Whatever, as long as it's made by you, I like to eat it."

Liu Xiaoli said as she walked out: "Fortunately, you are taking the theater exam. You don't have to go if you don't have a play. If you find a normal company to work, you will be fired within a month."

"Yeah." Liu Yifei said casually to her mother, hugging the quilt and continuing to lie down with her eyes closed.

"Get up quickly," Liu Yifei heard her mother packing bags and keys outside. "Get up and tidy up the living room, do you hear me?"

"Oh." Liu Yifei responded in the room.

While Liu Yifei was still lying in bed, Zhang Yuanjun had already watched half of the rough cut of "Transcendence" in director Li Yang's studio.

The rough cut version is 4 and a half hours long, with live recording, no color correction, no foley, and no soundtrack, but Zhang Yuanjun still watched it with gusto.

Li Yang said privately: "I have a feeling that our film can win some award."

"I'll get you the best picture." Zhang Yuanjun smiled.

"I don't want this. If I don't guarantee this film, I won't be able to get you a best actor." Li Yang also praised him.

"I can't even think about it. When I watch this now," Zhang Yuanjun pointed at the screen, "I always feel that my acting is not good enough."

Many actors have this problem. Looking back at their performances, they feel dissatisfied.

Li Yang was very satisfied with his performance.

Zhang Yuanjun reflected on himself: "It stands to reason that such a role should be better played by a middle-aged actor around 40 years old. I am still too young. I am afraid that the audience will not believe the story if my face appears on the screen."

"Don't belittle yourself too much. You acted very well." Li Yang praised, "Are you coming for the fine cutting?" "Come on, I'll be fine when I get back from the filming." Zhang Yuanjun said, his girlfriend is focused on losing weight and doesn't need him. He could only bury his head in work.

Of course, it's not like the two didn't meet each other, but it was the National Day Golden Week and there were too many people outside. Neither of them wanted to go out on a date, so they made phone calls and started video chatting.

This year's National Day film champion is of course "Painted Skin". This film really sparked a phenomenon craze.

Even if many people have not seen the film, they will be asked, "Have you seen "Painted Skin"?", or asked, "Go and see it, it's quite good."

The film's box office has exceeded 2 million, and its momentum continues unabated, heading towards a higher box office of [-] million.

Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei watched a movie together on the night of the Double Ninth Festival after the holiday.

Zhang Yuanjun was no longer interested in the storyline. He was watching the actors' performances, especially Zhou Xun's.

When leaving the theater, Liu Yifei praised: "Zhou Xun's performance is so good, Zhao Yanzi has never played her before."

Zhang Yuanjun held her hand and put it in his pocket: "I was watching Zhou Xun the whole time. Fortunately, there weren't many scenes where Zhou Xun and Zhen Zhuan were in the same frame, otherwise Zhen Zhuan would be made to look like a primary school student who can't act. "

"Do you regret not picking up Wang Sheng now? I think Chen Kun is going to be a big hit now, with the movie doing so well." Liu Yifei mentioned.

"I don't regret it," Zhang Yuanjun said sincerely. "The role of Wang Sheng is really uninteresting. He is just sandwiched between two wives, the older one. He is a troubled man who can't let go of the other one."

"Why are commercial films so complicated?" Liu Yifei understood.

"So, I should have no shortage of commercial achievements for the time being. I want to cooperate with different directors and shoot something different to see how much potential I still have."

When Zhang Yuanjun was approached for "Painted Skin", his commercial film performance was already ahead of all the young actors in the country, and he also had a Hollywood movie with a male protagonist that grossed 7000 million at the global box office.

At that time, there were investors who threw money at the film studio and asked him: "Can you invite Zhang Yuanjun to act? I will add another 2000 million."

The painted skin was not enough to impress Zhang Yuanjun from a commercial perspective, and the role of Wang Sheng was not that interesting, so it was normal for Zhang Yuanjun to refuse.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk," Liu Yifei started to get angry, "There is no lack of achievements for the time being, and you are so loud. "Painted Skin" has almost 2 million, and Chen Kun's achievements are almost surpassing yours."

"My "Buried Alive" grossed US$7000 million at the global box office, but he can't beat me, hehe."

"Smelly." Liu Yifei squeezed Zhang Yuanjun's pocket with her hand.

Zhang Yuanjun tightened his girlfriend's hand and asked, "Can I interview you?"

"what?"

"Since the completion of "The King of Kung Fu", you haven't taken on another movie, right? What do you think?"

"I'm recharging my energy. I'm rehearsing dramas to practice my acting skills, and I'm waiting for a blockbuster success." Liu Yifei seemed to be really unfazed, "I'm looking for a script, but I don't want to take it."

It’s not that Liu Yifei doesn’t want to act, but she is passionate about love. The two of them are as sweet as honey, and they want to meet and date every day. Liu Yifei is not a romantic person, but her main focus during this period is really on love. In addition, she also has a job in the theater. I really didn’t think much about taking the role.

"You're just lazy." Zhang Yuanjun pierced her mask.

"Hey." Liu Yifei leaned on his arm, "With a boyfriend like you who can write scripts, it doesn't matter if I don't take on external roles."

"Don't try to trick me. I'm not a code machine. I have to be available at all times. Writing scripts is very painful." Zhang Yuanjun pretended not to answer his girlfriend's words.

Liu Yifei just said that he really didn't expect to get the script from Zhang Yuanjun.

"The weather is getting cold. Do you want to go home and have a drink?"

"I'm losing weight."

"Just watch me eat."

Liu Yifei glared at him, but said no, Zhang Yuanjun drove the car towards his home.

That night, Liu Yifei did not go home.
