Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

Nie Wei shook his head: "It's not as simple as working hard, but working hard."

"Don't talk too far, let's just talk about "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2" that I just finished filming. Sister Binbin only played an important supporting role and only had three fighting scenes. But for these three fighting scenes, she went to a A domestic whipping master took three months to learn, three scenes, the total footage may be less than one minute, but she had to work hard for three months. "

"In order to enter Hollywood, she worked hard to learn foreign languages. She learned them while on the road and while eating. She even had to learn foreign languages ​​even when she went to the toilet."

"Don't think it's a rumor, but someone did hear it, and more than one person heard it. Later, your sister Binbin was able to speak fluent English at the World Climate Summit because of her efforts."

"So, if you want to make up your mind to enter this industry, you must be determined to fight for it."

Zhou Duoduo nodded silently and didn't say anything big, but because she was shocked by Li Binbin's efforts, she gradually gained a sense of consciousness.

Zhou Duoduo is a very smart girl. She understands things very quickly. She also knows how to analyze the pros and cons. She does not blindly choose a path for her role and can go on smoothly.

She knows very well that her advantage is that she has a powerful brother.

Nie Wei is not only the boss of the entertainment company, but what is even more powerful and worthy of praise is his status as the world's top director. Under the care of such a king-level director, she will definitely have no shortage of resources.

So Zhou Duoduo immediately realized that her biggest shortcoming was actually herself.

To forge iron, you have to be tough, and the same goes for acting. No matter how good the show is, if the actor's acting skills are not up to par, he will be criticized by the audience. After all, among a group of outstanding actors, a fisherman suddenly appears in troubled waters, which is like a wolf pack mixed with a second-rate actor. Haha, just be as eye-catching as you want.

She still remembered that Hu Ge acted in a daily life drama two years ago. The screenwriter of this TV drama inserted her daughter into the crew and arranged a role that was not light. What was the result?

Zhou Duoduo couldn't bear to think about it.

All she knew was that the screenwriter's daughter never tried to be an actress again and seemed to have switched to a career behind the scenes.

Nie Wei seems to have better conditions than the other party, but the crisis is also great. She has become a monk halfway. After all, the other party has studied stage play before and also received a master's degree from the Academy of Drama. Zhou Duoduo is pure I am a newbie and have almost no foundation.

What I know about actors is not only what I saw when I was on the set with Nie Wei, but also what the teacher taught me when I took acting classes with the company.

In the past, Zhou Duoduo would have been complacent because of the little knowledge she had learned, thinking that actors were just like that. She would also be complacent about her good results in the company's acting classes. After all, she was praised by the teacher every time she returned.

But during this day, from morning to noon to be precise, she was shocked by Nie Weiwei's words, and she was shocked and educated again by watching Li Binbin and Zhang Yi read around.

Her inner pride and complacency collapsed, and she began to have self-doubt and even some lack of confidence.

At this time, Nie Wei said something to her, which made her wake up and made her realize something.

She has no foundation, and she is still an idol. You must know that the current public always looks at idols with colored glasses, especially the "excellent" performance of several seniors in film and television dramas, which has given their group an embroidery. Pillow label.

So Nie Wei wants her to have the awareness to fight hard, because if she doesn't fight hard, it will be difficult for her to get ahead if she takes this path.

Zhou Duoduo is smart and excellent, so she is also very proud. She doesn't want to live under her brother's wings, nor does she want to be high and low. She wants to be number one as an idol, and the same goes for being an actor.

"I'm going to fight my best." Zhou Duoduo was thinking about this all night. She even dreamed that she was studying hard and wanted to be a good actor. As a result, she felt very tired when she got up the next day. , it doesn’t feel like I slept for eight hours at all.

After washing up, Zhou Duoduo walked out of her hut, walked around the yard twice, and then saw Nie Wei.

"Brother, I also want to join the reading today." Zhou Duoduo asked immediately when she saw Nie Wei.

"Okay, I will copy a set of scripts for you later, and we will set off after breakfast." Nie Wei replied with a smile.

In fact, asking a young actor with only one scene to participate in the audition would be laughable if it were placed on other crews. After all, those who can participate in the audition must be important characters in this TV series, let alone If you are a supporting character in a scene, even unimportant supporting characters are not eligible to participate.

Those who can participate in the reading are either a few main characters, or at most a few senior actors who are interested and can join in.

But Zhou Duoduo is different, she is Nie Wei's biological sister.

And even if Zhou Duoduo didn't say anything, Nie Wei was going to take her there. It didn't matter how much she could understand. The key was to see their professional attitude and set a better benchmark for themselves. Nie Wei felt that Li Binbin It's a really good fit.

This sister is an absolute role model when she is working.

It was precisely because of this that Nie Weicai asked her to set an example for Zhou Duoduo.

After breakfast, Nie Wei informed his family and then took Zhou Duoduo to the company.

About half an hour later, the two arrived at the Fanxing Group building.

"Your company will move into a new building in two years, what will you do with this building?" Zhou Duoduo asked curiously.

Fanxing Group’s plan to build a 100-story high-rise has long been in the news. Everyone is not surprised by this. Fanxing Group is so rich and is one of the top three domestic technology groups. Building a building, even a 100-story skyscraper, will The public doesn't think anything of it.

"How about giving it to you?" Nie Wei said with a smile. He personally funded the construction of this building. Fanxing Group has been using it over the years, and even pays Nie Wei a rent every year.

When Fanxing Group moves into the new building, it is naturally impossible for this building to be abandoned, but there are only two ways to deal with it, one is to rent it, and the other is to simply sell it outright.

Choosing the latter, Nie Wei could quickly recover a sum of funds. Excluding the money spent on the land and building the building, Nie Wei estimated that it would be no problem to earn 5 to 6 billion.

As for the former, the rent is not actually the point, but the land is relatively valuable. After all, every inch of land in the prosperous area of ​​Kyoto is really valuable.

Nie Wei was still hesitant at first, but after hearing Zhou Duoduo's question, he thought of the third possibility.

When Zhou Jianguo handed over the tens of billions of companies to him, Nie Wei thought of many plans to 'compensate' Zhou Duoduo. After much deliberation, property purchase was the safest and most suitable for Zhou Duoduo.

After all, she is a star and is very busy on weekdays, and buying property is the most convenient investment. As long as China is prosperous, these assets will be enough to ensure that Zhou Duoduo and her descendants have enough food and clothing.

However, Nie Wei had good intentions, but Zhou Duoduo was shocked.

"I don't want it." Zhou Duoduo waved her hands and shook her head excitedly, as if she was rejecting Nie Wei's kindness with her whole body.

"Idiot, I don't even want to give you a building. I told you that there is no store like this after passing this village."

"Your store is too big, I won't enter." Zhou Duoduo breathed a sigh of relief. Even if it was a gift from her brother, it was so heavy that Zhou Duoduo couldn't bear it.

In fact, the piles of villas and office buildings that Nie Wei mentioned yesterday had already scared her.

Although Zhou Duoduo had no idea about money, she felt dizzy when she suddenly found out that her assets were worth billions more. Therefore, she said she would never accept Nie Wei's sudden gift.

After all, why do you need so many buildings? Zhou Duoduo trembled all over when she thought that she might become a renter in the future.

During the Chinese New Year, except for a few security guards who were watching the building, the company did not have a single staff member. Such an empty Fanxing Building made Zhou Duoduo feel a little uncomfortable. After all, the previous few times he came here, there were a group of people like worker ants. Still busy, coming and going, the atmosphere of busy work is very strong.

Nie Wei took Zhou Duoduo directly to the top floor. There was a tea room dedicated to Nie Wei. Today's reading of Nie Wei was placed here.

Nie Wei and Zhou Duoduo arrived earlier, while Li Binbin and Zhang Yi hadn't arrived yet.

After entering the tea room, Nie Wei put away her clothes, washed her hands, and then started making tea. There were not many fancy details. When making tea, she first looked at the water quality, secondly at the water temperature, and thirdly at the brewing technique. Finally, pay attention to the time and master these points. , combined with the quality of the tea itself, a pot of good tea is ready.

"Drink some tea and warm yourself up." Nie Wei gave the first cup of tea to Zhou Duoduo, and then poured herself another cup of tea.

While Zhou Duoduo was drinking tea, Nie Wei took out a children's play from his document bag and handed it to her: "Read more and ask less questions. Write down any doubts you have. I will explain it to you when you get home."

"And don't treat yourself as an irrelevant person. When we discuss the script, listen carefully. Don't always think that you are playing a small role. Listen to yourself as the protagonist, especially Li Binbin's analysis. These are the things you should pay attention to. the key of."

"And..." Nie Wei gave Zhou Duoduo a serious instruction. Zhou Duoduo was also very serious at this time. She took Nie Wei's words to heart and was a little nervous. Of course, she was still looking forward to it.

As soon as they finished drinking a pot of tea, Li Binbin and Zhang Yi were brought to the tea room by the security guard at the door.

The two of them were not surprised to see Zhou Duoduo there. After saying hello, Nie Wei made another pot of tea. The three of them drank tea and began to read around.

Surround reading is to sort out the script from beginning to end, and find out and solve everyone's different understandings and problems in the process. This also lays the foundation for a smoother filming process in the future.

In the past, reading around was not popular in China. On the contrary, Japanese and Korean people preferred reading around. This was due to differences in drama production models. Domestic TV dramas were all filmed before being broadcast, but many Korean dramas were filmed on the fly. Side broadcast.

When filming and broadcasting at the same time, there is a need for efficiency, and reading around is undoubtedly a preparation that can increase efficiency.

Later, this model was introduced to China and was welcomed by many directors, and Nie Wei was one of them, because reading around would make the director's shooting ideas clearer and allow the screenwriter to discover plot flaws and come up with solutions before filming. , will also allow the actors to understand the characters more deeply.

Zhou Duoduo listened carefully and gradually realized that today's reading was different from yesterday.

If Li Binbin and Zhang Yi were discussing yesterday, then today is more like a problem-solving meeting, and Nie Wei was the one to answer the question.

In just one episode of the script, Li Binbin and Zhang Yi asked Nie Wei nearly twenty questions. There were some things that Zhou Duoduo found difficult to answer, but Nie Wei was always able to give explanations.

Moreover, Zhou Duoduo found that one of the things that her brother was very good about was that his scripts were rarely questioned. Even if an actor had questions about a certain plot, Nie Wei could give a reasonable explanation to convince the actor to accept it.

It's like the plot in the first episode where the victim's body was found in the mental hospital.

Li Binbin felt that the protagonist running to an abandoned mental hospital at night seemed to have a different reaction from normal people. After all, that kind of place was eerie and scary, and most people would be afraid of going there at night.

Nie Wei’s explanation for this is that the choice was made through a combination of ‘curiosity’ and the protagonist’s own ‘career’.

Ordinary people may choose another time to investigate because of fear, but as a police officer, it is a case that he has personally experienced, and he is eager to find clues, so it is not surprising that the protagonist makes this choice.

"Furthermore, the night visit to the abandoned mental hospital will bring an atmosphere of horror to the plot, which will tighten the audience's heartstrings. This will bring out the tension." Nie Wei explained with a smile.

Sometimes the plot is not only for the sake of reasonableness, but also for the sake of connecting the past and the next, and also to know how to heighten the atmosphere.

The audience is either nervous or relaxed according to the atmosphere created by the plot, and they are immersed in the plot without knowing it and become a big fan of this TV series.

In addition to studying the script and analyzing the plot, when analyzing the characters, Nie Wei sometimes asked Li Binbin and Zhang Yi to act out a scene on the spot, and then he would stand up and comment.

Zhou Duoduo also gradually changed her mentality, and began to put herself into the role of Li Binbin as Nie Wei asked, thinking about how she should act in this scene on camera, comparing herself to Li Binbin, and thus discovering her own immaturity and shortcomings. .

The reading meeting lasted for most of the day, and even lunch was ordered from a nearby restaurant. Fortunately, the takeout service was in place recently, so I could find a restaurant open during the Chinese New Year.

Even though the reading session lasted for six or seven hours, less than a third of the script was actually sorted out. This was still a simplicity, after all, the main actors were not included.

However, Nie Wei has been quite free recently, and has made an appointment with Li Binbin and Zhang Yi to continue reading tomorrow.

Seeing that it was getting late, everyone began to pack their things and prepare to go home. However, before leaving, Li Binbin asked Nie Wei out of curiosity: "When will the filming of the TV series start?"

"Come on, early March. I have already asked the staff to find the filming location. Once the filming location is confirmed, the TV series can officially start filming." Nie Wei replied with a smile.
