Entertainment: From the Octagon to the big screen

Chapter 398 - More practice is beneficial
"Your posture is too stiff. Well, there is a big problem with the point of exertion. The dive is not a segmented but a coherent dodge action."

Chen Yu held down Teacher Wang Jinsong's shoulders, then pushed his lower back with his left hand, and at the same time stretched out his foot to sweep the lower edge of Teacher Wang Jinsong's popliteal fossa.

When filming military-themed dramas before, teacher Wang Jinsong also took classes to learn three-month Sanda, grappling and other kung fu in order to fit into the role.

And it was during that period that he became keen on fitness exercises, and now his muscle lines have been shaped to almost perfection.

Of course, the "perfect" here means that he can fit the military's figure, and he can highlight the heroic figure of a soldier whether he is wearing clothes or shirtless.

"The male artists and actors who have emerged in recent years have done a remarkable job in body control, and they are not just thin."

Teacher Wang Jinsong was embarrassed to use the unpleasant word "sick" because Hong Junjia and Lai Yi were doing rowing machine training next to him.

Although at first glance, Hong Junjia, who is 1.85 meters tall and weighs nearly 72 kilograms, looks like a bamboo pole, this kid also has mermaid lines.

Moreover, Chen Yu felt that Hong Junjia lied about the altitude. The latter should be between 188 and 190, which is higher than Wang Hedi who just debuted.

At this time, Mengyang Film and Television wanted to insert Wang Hedi into a guest role to show off his face, but the director Fu Dongyu declined because the filming was about to be completed.

The sensible Wang Hedi immediately ran to see Chen Yu under the banner of chasing stars.

Although his idol is James Ke's record and achievements against Chen Yu, Wang Hedi also spoke very smoothly in front of the media like Shu Jiazhen.

It was rare that this young man was willing to work hard to memorize his lines, so Chen Yu also gave him a few extra words of praise to show his sincere gratitude.

To be honest, Chen Yu always feels that China's idol selection or development variety shows are weirder than South Korea's.

This group of young people in China seem to be competing not on overall strength but on topicality and discussion.

Chen Yu, who has little professional ability, is definitely not qualified to comment on the performance of Wang Hedi and others in person.

But he still felt that the talents and skills of these sunny boys had been fabricated and trimmed to a certain degree.

Chen Yu stretched out his hand to straighten the barbell on Hong Junjia's shoulders and told him the precautions for squat training, and helped him correct his stance.

Although Chen Yu is not a professional fitness coach, the fitness coach who guides him is definitely not something ordinary people can hire and afford.

The coach sister that Dilraba hired with a high salary would not open her mouth to instruct her on how to exercise with equipment as long as she saw Chen Yu present.

Instead, she stood aside and listened quietly as Chen Yu taught Dilraba. Chen Yu's words were often more precious than the rewards she earned.

After all, advanced skills and mature experience are important tools for this coach sister to create wealth, and they can even benefit her throughout her life.

In order to improve and enhance his own coordination, Lai Yi took the initiative to challenge difficult yoga ball balance training.

The coach sister who is responsible for instructing him is applying ice packs to his face. In just ten minutes, Lai Yi has fallen off the yoga ball four times.

"Sister Xiao Di joined "This! Is Street Dance" as a celebrity instructor. Brother Chen, will you help?"

In fact, Lai Yi is two years older than Chen Yu, but age is not worth mentioning in terms of net worth and status, unless Lai Yi is one round older than Chen Yu.

The reason why Dilraba was able to sign a contract with this variety show was because she stood up and spoke out, clearly saying that Chen Yu's dancing was rubbish.

As a result, she unintentionally gained praise and favor from many Chinese dancers. Even Teacher Jin Xing posted a long Weibo post to thank Dilireba.

Therefore, Chen Yu will 100% not go to this show to cause trouble for himself. At most, he will record some videos with Dilraba at home or outdoors.

To be honest, as Dilraba has established a positive image among Chinese dancers, Chen Yu has been regarded as a super villain by Chinese dancers.

Although it has not reached the level where everyone can punish him, the Chinese dancers who have a lower bottom line and a slightly higher moral code are unwilling to cooperate with Chen Yu.

After all, Chen Yu said in a joking tone at the carnival night at Dublin Airport that Chinese dancers were too utilitarian and lacked entertainment mentality and spirit.

In fact, Chen Yu's words were a reply to Chinese dancers who criticized his dancing as ugly and disgusting, but unexpectedly, the Chinese media took it out of context.

But what shocked Chinese reporters the most was that neither Chen Yu nor Dilraba came forward to clarify!

On the contrary, platforms such as Tencent and Sina took the initiative to release the original video to prevent the situation from escalating. However, the effect was not satisfactory and Chen Yu was not cleared.

"Today, in the eyes of Chinese dancers, I am just a fool who doesn't understand and loves to talk nonsense." Chen Yu said slowly after pulling Lai Yi up. Lai Yi sighed softly and raised his hand to rub his slightly swollen left cheek. Now he was particularly envious of Chen Yu being criticized by netizens.

Because the more people scold it, the higher the attention it receives, and the greater the probability of becoming famous.

Chen Yu twitched the corners of his lips. If Lai Yi had the mental quality of Yang Mi, he could try the black and red route, but once he takes it, there will be no way out.

Lai Yi was startled and then shook his head. He was not as fierce as Yang Mi, so he might as well move forward steadily. Anyway, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing now.

When Chen Yu heard this, he immediately glanced at him with a half-smile. It was Lai Yi who organized everyone to come to the gym to exercise at around eight o'clock this morning.

"I responded to the country's call and conducted special training to target my own shortcomings,"

Lai Yi pointed to the [National Fitness] banner hanging on the east wall and patted the soft yoga ball.

Chen Yu put an ice pack into Lai Yi's hand and told him to pay attention to safety and not to injure his body due to excessive exercise. He would have a shooting assignment early tomorrow morning.

At 10:20, Chen Yu and Wang Jinsong, who were chatting and laughing, left the gym and went to the set arm in arm. Wang Jinsong will finish filming this afternoon.

"It feels like you are a little tired after coming back this time. Have you not adapted to the working methods and management system of the domestic crew?"

Wang Jinsong took out two paper towels and wiped the rearview mirror carefully. He and Wu Gang noticed that Chen Yu's mood was obviously much lower recently than before.

Chen Yu fastened his seat belt and immediately gave Wang Jinsong a brief introduction to the script and character outline of "Red Sparrow".

After listening to Wang Jinsong's silence for a long time and discussing the scale of "Operation Icebreaker", he was indeed his grandson in front of others. No wonder Chen Yu's enthusiasm declined.

Even if he and Wu Gang returned to the crew of "Operation Icebreaker" immediately after filming "Red Sparrow", a similar situation would definitely occur.

"So even if iQiyi plans to shoot a sequel to "Operation Icebreaker", you will directly decline?"

While waiting for the green light, Wang Jinsong took a sip of wolfberry tea that invigorated and replenished blood, while Chen Yu inserted the straw into the soda bottle and sipped slowly.

"Operation Icebreaker" is expected to be released at the end of next year or in the second quarter of 2019, and at the same time, iQiyi will launch the "Venom Hunter" project.

The second version of the script for "Venom Hunter" has been initially completed. The roles of Wang Jinsong and Xu Zheng have been significantly revised, and their roles have also been changed.

Xu Zheng took the initiative to apply to be reduced to a guest role due to the tight schedule, and Wu Xiubo also strongly requested the screenwriter to let him die early because of his lack of skills.

As for the heroine, iQiyi has some issues with the tepid Hou Mengsha.

Hou Mengsha has participated in military-themed film and television works all year round. Although her temperament is more in line with the heroine, her popularity is relatively low.

Knowing the elegant meaning after hearing the sound of the string, Chen Yu did not embarrass Wang Jinsong and directly said that he could contact Shang Yuxian and help matchmaking to discuss the contract.

In Chen Yu's mind, he would definitely not let Dilraba take over this job, unless iQiyi wanted to make this work a farce or a bad drama.

Li Yitong and Meng Ziyi have no time to take on the project of "Venom Hunter", and Song Zuer will be chewing books after finishing her work in the college entrance examination next year.

So only Shang Yuxian, who has signed a contract with iQiyi for "Animal Management Bureau", has time.

"Why can't it be Guli Nazha or Tong Liya?" Teacher Wang Jinsong tapped the accelerator.

"If you want to cast Guli Nazha in "Venom Hunter", then you might as well cast it in my family." Chen Yu dug out a package of vegetable biscuits.

Chen Yu had never heard Dilraba talk about Tong Liya's schedule, so it was inconvenient to disturb others randomly.

But he recommended iQiyi to contact Reyza and give it a try.

This young lady is also one of Dilraba's besties. She has strong business skills and a frank personality, and her appearance can also stand the test.

After all, Shang Yuxian's career ambition is not very strong and he may refuse to go to Southeast Asia to film "The Poison Hunter".

Teacher Wang Jinsong silently took note of the matters mentioned by Chen Yu, and prepared to find an opportunity to discuss the female protagonist issue with the production team of "Venom Hunter".

The heroine of "Venom Hunter" must not be cast by a high-ranking celebrity due to role restrictions, otherwise the cost-effectiveness will be too low and it will be a waste for both parties.
