Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 29
Zhang Yuanjun had just hung up the phone when there was a knock on the door.

The producer gasped and said, "Hurry up and follow me. The TV station leader called to see you."

"The contract I signed as an actor is for showmanship but not body." In an instant, Zhang Yuanjun felt scared.

"Bah!" The producer spat, "You are too young, the leader doesn't like young people."

"It really does exist!" Zhang Yuanjun had only heard of this kind of thing but never seen it.

"What's so strange about this." The producer has seen a lot, "I'm tired of eating delicacies from mountains and seas. I'm not the one who told you this, hurry up and follow me."

"I don't know those leaders, why call me by name?" Zhang Yuanjun was puzzled, but followed him out of the room.

The producer learned to speak: "'I think the guy in your crew who played Gui Haiyidao is pretty good.' Then I came to you."

Having said that, Zhang Yuanjun became interested instead.

TV leaders don't point themselves out for no reason.

Could it be that he is finally going to meet a nobleman and make his way to the top?
Zhang Yuanjun asked himself if he was not so lucky, so he also planned to meet him.

The crew's reception has already entered the second half, and they sang and drank in the nightclub after dinner.

Of the several leaders who came here, only two are still present, and the rest have returned to the hotel to "rest" ahead of schedule.

Zhang Yuanjun discovered a phenomenon. In the nightclubs around the film and television city, the average quality of girls is higher than other nightclubs.

Just like now, the young girls in the box are really no worse than the students of the film school. If there is a financial supporter, they might still be popular.

The dim light in the box made Zhang Yuanjun unable to see the other party's face clearly.

But through the introduction, Zhang Yuanjun knew that the other party was the leader of Jinling TV Station.

Zhang Yuanjun confirmed that he had never seen him before.

The leader put his arms around a little girl, and said in Luling's words: "Your father and I are old classmates. When your father came to Jinling for an inspection, he mentioned that his son was filming in Wuxi and played Guihai Yidao. Are you the third child?"

The word "ba" after the third child sounds very awkward.

"Yes, I am the third child." Zhang Yuanjun agreed. Since he is an elder and a friend of his father, Zhang Yuanjun raised his glass, "Come on, let me respect you."

"Forget it, what kind of wine does a 19-year-old drink.

"You must act well, you know. Act in a down-to-earth manner and behave honestly. Don't lose face to your father, and don't lose face to us Luling people."

Good words are good words, but he hugged two scantily clad young girls in the box of the nightclub to teach the younger generation to work hard and behave honestly.

Nothing happened, Zhang Yuanjun said hello and went back.

One thing that Zhang Yuanjun didn't quite understand was that his father didn't go to university because of policy reasons, and the relationship between his classmates in high school was able to climb to Jinling. Such things as classmates are really amazing.

The director of the TV station stayed on the production team for two days. During these two days, the work of the production team was very relaxed, usually only working half a day, and the rest of the time was basically entertaining the leaders to eat, drink and have fun.

Others only knew that Zhang Yuanjun "may have some money at home", but now they also know that "their family is also very connected in the TV station and entertainment circle".

Heaven and earth conscience!
That was his dad's old classmate, how could he be "very well connected in the entertainment circle"?

This level of relationship is not enough for TV stations to spend real money to buy dramas.

However, Zhang Yuanjun did benefit from this, and many people in the crew became more friendly to him, and those Hong Kong actors even invited him to have dinner and play together.

After sending off the TV station visiting team, the crew resumed intense filming.

Wang Jing also left the crew to prepare for his "Little Fish and Flowers".Before leaving, I did not forget to tell Zhang Yuanjun about the investment.

Now even he believes that the Zhang family has energy in the circle and can help sell dramas.

After all, he is a monk from outside. Even if he is famous, he still needs to establish a good relationship with the big local family.

But Zhang Yuanjun still meant that, unless he was asked to play Hua Wuque, otherwise there would be no discussion.

Wang Jing would never agree to this request. In the end, he had no choice but to give up, but he also offered an olive branch: "You are suitable for this bowl of rice, and we can cooperate more in the future when opportunities arise."

Wang Jing knew that Zhang Yuanjun would not sign with the company, but if he made friends with him, he would use Zhang Yuanjun more in the future and build a good relationship, which would also benefit his development in the Mainland.

In the last more than half a month, Zhang Yuanjun's roles were very concentrated.

It mainly filmed the plot after Gui Hai cut off his hand with a knife.

In this plot, Zhang Yuanjun encountered difficulties, he is right-handed.

The crew's stand-in can stand in for a while—yes, Zhang Yuanjun also has a stand-in, and he will use a stand-in for some dangerous moves and moves that he can't do at the moment—but many scenes still require him to perform in person.

This is nothing to avoid, and it does not involve professional ethics issues. Stunt actors are also an important type of work on the crew. Jackie Chan and Lin Zhengying started as doubles.

His stand-in doesn't look like him, only similar in stature and height.

Zhang Yuanjun also specially practiced his left-handed knife, but he never had a sharp right hand. For this reason, he made a lot of jokes in the crew:

The way of drawing the knife is extremely awkward and funny.

When I hit him, my hands would not listen to me. Several times the knife dropped suddenly, and the opponent actor confiscated it, and Zhang Yuanjun was almost injured.

Zhang Yuanjun thought it was funny to himself.

He's working hard, but it's not ideal.

In the end, he was cornered, and he asked his assistant Xiao Zhao to tie his right hand. Regardless of daily life or work on the set, he only uses his left hand.

This is a pain for Zhang Yuanjun.He can't even use chopsticks well when eating. Others can finish eating in 10 minutes, but he has to eat for half an hour. He doesn't even accept the assistant's suggestion to use a spoon.

What makes him angry is that when he was eating next to others, he always bumped his hands and chopsticks with others, causing them to keep rolling their eyes.

"There is no need for a substitute, and I don't know who to spend all this effort on."

If it is said that eating and drinking with the left hand just takes more time, then the hygiene problem makes Zhang Yuanjun feel more painful.

He can't use his left hand very hard, and every time he goes to the toilet, he feels that he hasn't cleaned it up.

So much so that in those few days he always felt that others were looking at him with weird eyes, which made him feel unclean even more.

The use of his left hand also made it difficult for him to adapt to the 10-year calligraphy practice.

He felt that he couldn't even hold a pen, and no matter how he wrote it, he felt that it was worse than a dog crawling.

He was so angry that he dropped several pens.

But the discomfort subsided after a week.

Words are still like a dog crawling, and the left hand is still unable to exert strength, but the inconvenience of eating, drinking, and lassing is no longer inconvenient.

Zhang Yuanjun's efforts have been recognized by colleagues in the crew.

"Don't look at him as a young master from a rich family, but he's not coquettish at all, and he's practicing so hard even after he's almost finished."

Of course, it's not all good words: "It's just a meal, why are you so serious. There are doubles, which will delay our shooting progress."

In filming, under the training of the action director, Zhang Yuanjun's left hand knife dance is also considered to be in good shape.

　emmmmm... I have read some arguments, and I will deal with them later.I still hope that everyone will not give up on this book. I recommend reading it now. If no readers follow up, the editor will not give a recommendation. I hope everyone will support it.
