After getting Shidi at the start

Chapter 32

What Li Mingji said was of course a joke, at least both Brother Wang and Xiaoguang felt so.

Li Mingji himself can't just take it seriously. After all, he still clearly understands that this is a different world. Many people and things are different from what he experienced in his previous life, and it is impossible to follow that process completely. come and go.

However, from what Wang Ge and Xiaoguang said before, as well as what I have experienced and seen these days, it seems that the development of domestic entertainment in this world has not changed much. Seriously, and domestic films are indeed in trouble.

If you consider it according to normal logic, then the works that were successful in the same environment in the previous life also have a great possibility of success here.

So Li Mingji asked Xiaoguang: "You haven't read the script, have you? Take a look and see if it can be shot well?"

It seems that Xiaoguang, who is a movie fan, knows more about this than Brother Wang.

Xiaoguang quickly flipped through the "Dragonborn 2", and smiled after a while: "I feel that I can't see anything from the script, but the story seems to be quite old-fashioned. I have heard of this thing, two years ago Indeed, there was an overseas rescue operation, and it was quite a big disturbance.

"I remember that the news on TV was broadcast in rotation, and finally the rescue was successful, but I didn't hear that it had anything to do with the 'Dragonborn Army'..."

Brother Wang said unhappily: "You are confused after watching the movie. Even those who don't pay attention to me know that the troops are fictional, so this must be made up by the movie."

Xiaoguang smiled awkwardly, and Li Mingji couldn't help laughing, "So, it's an adaptation of a real person... By the way, our country recently... Forget it, I'll watch the news myself. I'll just ask You, how many domestic films are there?"

Xiaoguang suddenly shook his head like a rattle, and said helplessly: "Many viewers think that domestic TV dramas are getting worse and worse. In fact, it's just because people who watch movies really don't watch TV as much. Our current movies are the real ones. Medicine can save.

"In the past few years, cinemas have not shown a few good-looking domestic films—well, this is my personal opinion. I can also watch some literary films, but there are not many really good ones. There are also those that seem to have a high box office. Yes, many of them are fake, I really..."

It seems that this is still a supporter of domestic films, but it is a pity that the domestic practitioners are not strong enough to make him hate iron for steel.

Following him, his eyes suddenly brightened and he said, "Brother Mingji, don't you really want to act in this movie?"

"Why, can't it?" Li Mingji said so, but looked at Brother Wang.

At this time, Brother Wang was looking at his nose, his mouth was concerned, and he looked like an old monk who was in meditation and didn't hear about foreign affairs, so people didn't know what he was thinking.

Xiaoguang smiled and said: "Okay, why not, you can help me get one... Oh no, if you really go and succeed, then I have to follow up with the group, then I can get Wu Jing's autograph to return it." Have a group photo?

"Hey, you don't know that I have liked him since he first debuted. Unfortunately, his development has not been very smooth over the years. He has participated in those action movies, either as a villain, or as a younger brother, and many more People say that because of his poor acting skills, he did not develop well.

"Although his acting skills are indeed flawed, he is really good-looking, and who cares about acting in action movies? The action movies in recent years have been so eye-catching, and it's not because action actors like him can only give to those garbage Small fresh meat as a side... um..."

Most afraid of the air suddenly quiet!
Brother Wang's face was full of black lines, Xiao Guang kept his mouth shut, but Li Mingji, who was shot mercilessly, didn't react.

He is not the kind of "trash little fresh meat" that Xiaoguang said, even if he was in the past, he is definitely not now, at least not for the time being.

In the end, Brother Wang came out to smooth things over: "Ahem, okay... Having said all that, Mingji, you have made up your mind, are you sure you want to participate in 'Dragon Born 2'?"

Li Mingji nodded, and in case he had any doubts, he explained first: "Personally, I think, let alone how the finished product of this movie is, as long as I participate in this project, there will be at least three benefits.

"The first one is very simple. Entering the film industry, the two circles of film and television are still a bit of a wall. I think I will set foot in the film sooner or later. I didn't have a good chance before, so now I look at it from this point of view. Starting with my supporting role, isn't it just right?
"Secondly, the military must be involved behind this project, right? Brother Wang, you said before that you hope I can get into the official line of sight while filming. The military should be considered official, right?"

Hearing this, Brother Wang nodded involuntarily, obviously being convinced by Li Mingji.

"There is a third one. I want to see if I have the opportunity to take the path of an action actor. If I take the acting school, I may not have that talent, but if I can add some action elements, it may be different. Based on this Judging from the type of drama, this is definitely a good opportunity.

"Xiaoguang also said that Wu Jing is a very qualified and powerful action actor. There will probably be no shortage of martial arts instructors in the crew. I can learn how to do it, and I can also judge whether I can do it. ..."

This time, Brother Wang interrupted: "I'm afraid this won't work. The company won't agree. Your current body is not just your own."

Li Mingji was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "I understand this, I mean to see if I can make a good fight scene, but the really difficult and dangerous moves must be done by a stuntman."

To be honest, there is nothing wrong with this. Even when action movies were the most popular and action stars emerged in endlessly, stuntmen were widely used. Now that the status of actors is becoming more and more "golden", the scope of application of stuntmen is even wider.

It has even reached the point where you have to use a stand-in to run, and you have to use cutouts to stand on a high place. It is no wonder that many viewers complained.

However, the audience's complaints can't stop the crew from doing this. After all, if the actors are damaged, the crew might be even more "unable to bear it". In the era when idols accidentally cut a small wound, the crew can be scolded by fans on the hot search. What is impossible?

Of course, Li Mingji didn't want to really ruin his body, and then let the crew take the blame for him, not to mention that he would be the one who hurt himself in the end.

Don’t look at how good-looking and chic the action superstars were in the early years, how much they paid behind them, and how many hidden wounds they left behind, only they know, that is the real fight with their bodies and lives. to such.

So I can only explore the path of action movies that suit me as much as possible within the current limited scope.

In fact, he thinks that the Hollywood movies he watched in his previous life are good reference objects. Excluding special effects, many of their action scenes are actually edited.

Even if you can't do such sharp and fast editing in China, as long as you don't rely on cutouts and avatars for everything, try to do it yourself when you can, and then cooperate with action guidance. Li Mingji believes that the effect will not be bad. of.

"Okay, okay, since you said so, let's tentatively decide on this one. I will give you a reply later, and you will probably have to audition by then." Brother Wang nodded and said: " But I think it should be possible to take it down, and they should be prepared when they send this..."

Li Mingji knew what he meant by not finishing. Obviously, although the first "Dragonborn" was considered a success, neither the film studio's investment nor Wu Jing himself had much confidence in the success of this sequel.

They found such traffic as Li Mingji, obviously they wanted to help the film gain some popularity and attract some attention in the early stage, which not only saved money for publicity but also achieved the effect of publicity. Tickets for less fans.

As for the "righteous passers-by who hate little fresh meat", they have never been able to decide whether a film and television drama is good or bad, so naturally no one will care about them.

So they can only be keyboard warriors, and Li Mingji can still make "bad money", this is the reality.

"Then there is this one... What does this mean?"

"What do you mean?" Li Mingji was stunned for a moment, then reacted and scratched his head and smiled: "Oh, you said this, I just thought this script was very interesting and I wanted you to read it, just ignore it now.

"If I want to play Dragonborn in the future, maybe I have to go to training or something, and there are 'bodyguards' waiting here. I heard you said that there are magazine shoots or other announcements. I'm afraid I'll be too busy."

Brother Wang said with a smile: "Is there anything too busy to come here? Didn't you come here like this before?"

"I came here like this before, so I haven't made any progress for so many years. What I got in exchange for an award is controversy and ridicule." Li Mingji sighed. Although this had nothing to do with him, he suddenly thought of the mediocrity in his previous life. of myself.

In fact, he also had a star dream in his previous life. Although he hadn’t experienced the big exposure of later generations in the entertainment industry, and the aura of stars was still quite special, he thought about what it would be like to stand on the big stage, sing and act. look like.

Later, the real life smoothed his edges and corners, and also obliterated his dreams. Let alone a star, he couldn’t even afford a house or a car. .

Now that I have a chance to do it all over again, with such a good platform, if I don’t work hard to realize my dreams while making money, and live a more meaningful life, wouldn’t it be a waste of this chance of rebirth?
Hearing his words, Brother Wang's face unconsciously became serious, and then he thought of something, and smiled: "Oh, just now you mentioned the announcement, and I was just about to say that Mr. Qian has just arranged another one for you. New announcement, we are going to record an episode of 'Forward For Love'."

"What?"
