let go of that man [rebirth]

There is more than one place where you can watch movies on a cruise ship, and the place where Zhou Sihan and others go in a team is an open-air theater.

On the top deck, with the sea breeze blowing, drinking some wine, accompanied by handsome men, it is very pleasant.

I ordered a few cocktails at the bar, and while waiting for the bartending, Zhuang Jin finally had some free time to observe the audience who were also watching the movie.Then, he accidentally discovered Chang Ruida.Zhuang Jin realized belatedly that the film being shown on the screen was directed by Chang Ruida.

Director Chang is 70 years old, so it is impossible to come out alone. There is a middle-aged man sitting next to him, whispering something to him from time to time, which makes Director Chang nod frequently. From his expression, he seems to be discussing more serious academic content?Maybe it's someone like a disciple.

Holding a tray, Zhuang Jin, who played a guest role as a waiter once, put the wine glass in front of the girl who ordered the order. The etiquette is not bad, and those girls who deliberately put on airs to cosplay the western aristocratic lady did not play well, laughing and laughing, but they His eyes were shining brightly, and he looked very happy.

During the movie break, a girl with a round face said softly, "Zhuang Jin, do you want to meet Director Chang?"

Zhuang Jin shook his head, "I just saw it, so I must be a little concerned."

Zhuang Jin was not very surprised that Chang Ruida was on the ship.Celebrities and the rich are often thrown together, but they are really two words.Regal originally only refers to very rich people. After the word local tyrant was born, in order to distinguish the rich, it now refers to those who have been rich for three generations, while celebrities refer to famous people, usually leaders in a certain industry. Naturally, her status in the entertainment circle can also gain weight.

If the organizer only invites families and entertainers who have contacts in the business district, the guest list would be too monotonous.

The round-faced girl nodded, and then pulled her friend over, "Director Chang is her second grandfather, the kind with whom she has a good relationship."

The little friend reacted after being startled, and nodded sharply, "Yes, yes!"

Zhuang Jin: "..." No one seemed to believe what he said.

Having said that, Zhuang Jin really didn't expect Chang Ruida to have such an identity.

Usually when you go to watch a movie, do you pay attention to who the director is and what background does he have?Anyway, Zhuang Jin wouldn't.Zhuang Jin is the kind of person who doesn't even bother to care who the leading actor is, as long as the movie itself is good-looking. In other words, if Zhuang Jin knows an actor, it must be that the actor is well-known or recognizable enough.

Therefore, Zhuang Jin didn't know that Chang Ruida was not just a celebrity in the entertainment industry, but a member of a rich family; he also didn't know that "The Hunting Game" was filmed on a private island; Before, there was closed training...

Well, it's not actually closed.

But surrounded by the vast sea, it's a hundred times more than being closed, okay?

What is playing on the screen is a thrilling action movie produced on the Hollywood assembly line. The protagonist team configuration is familiar to everyone: a white scientist who is responsible for raising the IQ of the team, and a white man who is responsible for selling meat and screaming to slow down Beauty, a black man who can fight well and a yellow-skinned Chinese who can play soy sauce...

where is wrong?

Well, there are more Chinese.

Although this character is a marginal figure in the protagonist group, he has fewer opportunities to show his face than his teammates, and is almost in a state of paddling all the time, but anyway, he is a protagonist.

The eyes of capital are always on the market.

In the past, most of the people who went to the cinema for consumption were young people. After all, movie tickets are still relatively expensive. After the people become rich in 2030, watching movies has gradually become one of the leisure choices for the whole people. The older generation also think that movie tickets are quite expensive. Something happens when cheap is no longer stingy.

For example, when an old lady with a high status in the family and the right to speak walks into the cinema accompanied by her granddaughter——

"What's going on? People are like ghosts."

Grandma, you act like a vampire!

"This girl is not good, the clothes are not worn properly, you usually look at these? You don't learn well at a young age..."

People are called sexy!And my 25-year-old grandma!

"Why are they all foreign devils? I don't know anyone?"

What do you think... well, don't talk about it, just watch domestic movies honestly, at least you can see a few familiar faces.

For a period of time, the box office of Hollywood films in China increased, but their market share decreased. The results of the survey report are the same as the above example.In response to the problems brought up by these feedbacks, the rest cannot be changed. It can still be done by finding a few Chinese actors to fill them in.

What, you say don't care?The box office of nearly 20 billion people!Are you crazy not to want it?

What can the United States do? The United States is also very desperate.Giving up China is equivalent to giving up half of the box office, which is essentially no different from suicide. ——If you don't fight for it, someone will naturally fight for it, and everything serves the market.This is the truth that Chinese actors are often able to act abroad, especially in the United States.

Zhuang Jin concentrated on savoring the bartender's skills, and stopped looking at the actor on the screen who is cute at best, and stupid at worst... This person who is paddling water must be acting in his true colors.The whole morning was quickly spent in the movie, and when it was approaching lunch time, the enthusiastic round-faced girl and her little friend led Zhuang Jin to the usual director's side.

The little friend is also surnamed Chang, and her name is Chang Qinan. It sounds quite literary, but she can't help but have a very hearty personality.

"Second Grandpa, this friend I just made is an actor, please take care of me!"

"..."

Chang Ruida looked at his elder brother's granddaughter - said that his granddaughter was not bad, then looked at Zhuang Jin, and was immediately shocked by the young man's appearance... If you see such an outstanding actor during the audition, Director Chang may appreciate it, but in this environment... "Nan Nan, what kind of friend is this...?"

After hesitating for half a minute, after the round-faced girl reminded her, Chang Qinan finally came to her senses, suddenly realized and said proudly, "Dude!"

Zhuang Jin: "..."

Chang Ruida: "..."

After the toothache was over, Director Chang wisely exhausted his granddaughter's patience in a family-style questioning, and waited until the women's army in the auditorium—including the granddaughter—had come to say hello to Zhuang Jin and left together, and then turned his attention to Zhuang Jin again. On the young man in front of him, the first sentence was very blunt, "I don't seem to have seen you?"

Now that the lady is gone, there is no need for a gentleman to exist. Zhuang Jin relaxed a little, and said jokingly: "'Seems' can be deleted, I am just a newcomer." To deal with this kind of old child who is angry with himself, be respectful How boring.

"When did you debut?"

"April this year."

"What did you play?"

"The third male in a TV series, the protagonist of a low-budget literary film."

"..." Chang Ruida now looks at Zhuang Jin differently. Anyway, this kind of resume that has nothing to do with brilliance can be said without shame in front of his eyes, with an expression that seems to be introducing Zhuang Jin. Like his own award-winning record, it is also a skill.

"An entertainer all day long, right?"

"Ah."

Of course, there are artists from other companies on board. Although the organizer only invited Zhong Tian, ​​it is not uncommon for guests to bring an artist with them, although most guests will choose to bring assistant secretaries and the like.

Mr. Chang obviously had a good impression of Zhong Tian, ​​so he snorted, "Okay, give me your business card, and I'll call you if I don't have a supporting role later." This is to save face for his granddaughter. In a word, it depends on the mood of the old man at that time.

"..." Zhuang Jin's expression was very sincere, "Actually, I'm going to print my business card after I get off the boat."

"..."

Director Chang and his disciples were stunned.

The granddaughter had to give her face, and Chang Ruida finally asked his disciple to exchange phone numbers with Zhuang Jin in a very upset way—it's just so hypocritical, I won't change with you, let my apprentice come.The middle-aged man smiled, obviously accepting this well, it is estimated that it is not uncommon to see Master doing such a thing.

After the simple exchange, Zhuang Jin politely bid farewell to the old No. [-] middle school group to go for food. The back view was full of aristocratic elegance. The more Chang Ruida looked at it, the more he felt that this young man had the capital of a liar with feelings. : "How can there be such a person? He has debuted for so long and doesn't even have a business card. He is not professional at all!"

"You forgot, there is an amateur contract all day long."

"..." Chang Ruida quickly found a new point of attack, "I don't respect the old at all! I haven't greeted me for so long!"

"You are still the same, you didn't even ask the person's name."

"..."

So, why did he find such an apprentice?
