Chapter 106

After experiencing Ms. Jennifer's heavy "dismissal", Zhang Chumo, who was only 48 years old, saw Tang Shi walking towards him with a blank face when he was ng 22 times in a day, as if he saw his parents. Normally, a look of grievance immediately appeared on the face, and the mouth was shrunken to cry, and the expression seemed to be weeping.

Seeing this, Tang Shi reached out and beckoned Zhang Chumo who was standing alone on the set. The two walked out of the interview hall full of shooting equipment side by side, turned around the corridor, and found themselves in a bright and spacious reception room with large French windows. sat down.

At this time, Zhang Chumo had already collapsed under the constant nagging, the director's sharp reprimand and the suspicion of the crew.Feeling ashamed and shameless, Zhang Chumo sat on the chair and kept crying, covering his face and repeating that he couldn't do it, feeling sorry for Tang Shi's words of cultivation.Tang Shi did not expect Zhang Chumo's psychological quality to be so poor——

Filming is not difficult at all for actors.What's more, it's even more so when a rookie actor is deliberately pushing back against a powerful actress like Ms. Jennifer.

Tang Shi originally thought that Zhang Chumo would get rid of his impetuous arrogance after going through this "dismissal".Unexpectedly, Zhang Chumo was so shocked that he lost his confidence in acting.

Zhang Chumo's performance made Tang Shi feel a bit of a headache—what was even more embarrassing was that Tang Shi never knew how to make chicken soup for the soul, let alone how to comfort and motivate others.

International GC's headquarters in Stars and Stripes is located in the World Trade Center in downtown New York.In the 110-story building, floors No. 70 to 73 belong to international GCs.Standing in front of the bright and empty floor-to-ceiling windows and looking out, all you can see are rows of high-rise buildings.When people look up at it, they can't help but have a desire to control the world, and the fantasy that the whole world is within reach.

Looking down at the mortal beings outside the glass window, there are many pedestrians and traffic.Hearing Zhang Chumo's cry in Tang Shi's ears, he said slowly: "When I first came to Huaquwu, I only saw that the tall buildings here were higher than those in China, and there were more vehicles than in China. , I didn’t think it was so special here. Because at that time, like you now, I valued myself more than the industry, the aura brought by the actor’s identity, and the meaning of the actor’s profession itself. Until Something happened in the "Black Mans" crew, which made me deeply understand how difficult it is to be an actor—or to be a competent, good actor."

Zhang Chumo, who has been paying attention to the combination of sugar and juice, instantly understood what Tang Shi was talking about—because of the turmoil back then, many foreign media were talking about the professional ethics of Chinese actors.In fact, there have been many verbal criticisms about the country.At that time, everyone was accusing Tang Shi of playing big names, and some even believed that Tang Shi's actions had tarnished the image of Hua Guo.It was noisy for a while.It wasn't until Tang Shi was nominated for Best Actor in Olek for his "Wonderful Journey" that the impact of this incident gradually dissipated, and was replaced by the turmoil caused by another incident.

At that time, the Sugar Juice Group had already become a "national idol" in the media's writing, and it was the pride of Huaguo's entertainment circle.

Tang Shi turned his head to look at the thoughtful Zhang Chumo, and said, "Sometimes we have to be grateful to ourselves who were immature and made mistakes and external pressure. Because these things have inspired us to grow and make us better. And In Bad Quwu, what we need to face is not only the director and other members of the crew, but also we must always remember that we are Chinese... As long as anything is involved with national pride and self-esteem, it will be forever It's not going to be trivial."

"...That's why I realized at that time that willfulness is not the solution to problems, and neither is pride. That's why Lu Hengzhi and I did everything possible to invest in the filming of "A Wonderful Journey". Hopefully with these efforts we'll prove our worth and the place will recognize us - at least as good, professional actors. And not for anything else..."

Zhang Chumo quietly looked at Tang Shi's back in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, with a more complicated expression.

Feeling that Zhang Chumo's gaze gradually calmed down, Tang Shi walked slowly to Zhang Chumo's side, looked at Zhang Chumo and said, "I think your current situation is much luckier than ours at that time. At least you now have nothing but Apart from being serious about acting, you don’t need to worry about other things. Unlike me and Lu Hengzhi, because we built a crew from scratch, we have to worry about everything. Shooting costs, venues, budgets...even tomorrow morning What kind of props to use when filming, you have to think about it at night and prepare it. Otherwise, the next day’s shooting will be delayed.”

"...so the value of a person is directly proportional to the pressure he bears. Sometimes the word 'lucky' is far from its superficial meaning, it means that you have to bear more pressure and choices than others .If you can persevere, you will succeed. If you can't... Maybe you can choose to quit now, although it is very difficult, but I will find someone else to replace you. As long as you are willing."

Tang Shi's words startled Zhang Chumo.Then, from the bottom of my heart, there was a trace of unconvinced and unwilling stubbornness.She raised her head reflexively, and stared at Tang Shi in front of her with wide eyes.After a long silence, Zhang Chumo saw that Tang Shi's words were not casual and provocative. Zhang Chumo sat quietly for a while, and slowly became clear, nodded and said: "I understand, I will try my best to persevere." , I won’t think about anything, please give me another chance.”

Whether it's true or not, Tang Shi was relieved by Zhang Chumo's recovery.To be honest, he has no place to find another heroine.Fortunately, in the end Zhang Chumo understood what he wanted.

"Ms. Jennifer is a good person and also our benefactor. You can learn a lot from her. And what happened today..." Tang Shi, who was relieved, will quickly send him and Lu Heng to each other according to the original draft. Confidentiality of the plan.Looking at Zhang Chumo's astonished expression, Tang Shi said in a deep voice: "...I can only say that I am disappointed by your performance just now. Because in my impression, you should be a person full of aura and very talented. It can even be said that the role of Jane is somewhat in common with your real self. I originally thought that you only need to show your best side in front of the camera. Perfect interpretation of this role. It's a pity that for some reason, you didn't do it."

In fact, it's not that she doesn't know. Both Tang Shi and Zhang Chumo knew in their hearts that since Zhang Chumo received the role, she has become a little ecstatic.We often say that opportunities can make a person, but if you don't grasp the opportunity, then all achievements and all expectations are just a piece of waste paper.The young Zhang Chumo, who just graduated from the Film Academy, was very lucky. She got a chance to let the whole world know her at the beginning of her debut.This kind of starting point is very high, but it's a pity that Zhang Chumo, who was suddenly pleasantly surprised, didn't have the heart to pay for it, so he behaved a little frivolous and irritable these days.

However, both Tang Shi and Zhang Chumo believed that after this blow, Zhang Chumo could understand his abilities and shortcomings more clearly, sink down steadily, and think about this role well.

...Leaving the rest of the time to Zhang Chumo to think about it slowly, Tang Shi left the meeting room.Follow the corridor all the way to Ms. Jennifer's dressing room and lounge.Lu Hengzhi was talking with Ms. Jennifer inside, and Mr. Al was standing beside him in casual clothes and a baseball cap.

Seeing this, Tang Shi couldn't help shouting in surprise: "Mr. Al, are you here too?"

"Yeah, I have nothing to do at home, so I came to visit the class." Mr. Al, who was chewing gum, nodded at Tang Shi, and said casually, "How is that little girl, is she crying?"

"At the beginning, I was really at a loss - you must know that every actor is full of pressure when facing actors like Ms. Jennifer and Mr. Al. But I believe that she will survive." Tang Shi is very serious Said.Then I thanked Ms. Jennifer who was touching up her makeup.

Ms. Jennifer can't make too much movement because she is touching up her makeup.However, she still shook her head kindly at Tang Shi, and said slowly: "This girl's talent and basic skills are very good. I believe she will be a very good actress in the future."

Because Zhang Chumo needs to adjust his emotional relationship, the next shooting will skip all the scenes of Jane, and turn into the other scenes that will be shot in this scene today-the dialogue between Mrs. Dana and her assistant Vivienne.

Now all the pressure of the scene with Mrs. Dana was transferred to Qiao Lin.As the most popular singing queen in Asia, Qiao Lin, who started her debut at the age of 17, has only filmed MVs for her own songs in the past ten years, and has never had the experience of filming.Not to mention playing against Ms. Jennifer, a powerful actress who has been known internationally for decades.Therefore, Qiao Lin was very nervous when filming this scene.

She didn't even dare to look at Mrs. Dana's bright and soft eyes. She could only tensely stiffen her body, lower her eyes, and dryly explain to Mrs. Dana why she disqualified Jane from the interview—she thought Jane's The action touched Mrs. Dana's reverse scales, and it was disrespectful to Mrs. Dana.And Jane's frivolous offense was unbearable for Jolene, because she admired Mrs. Dana so much.

To be honest, if you look at the level of performance, Qiao Lin's lines are stuttering and incoherent, which is really terrible.However, if Qiao Lin's performance is placed in this scene, it just rightly shows the assistant Vivienne's care and nervousness towards Mrs. Dana, as well as her rejection and disgust towards Jane.

But this also explains why in the following plot, Vivienne will target Jane everywhere, make things difficult for Jane, and try to force Jane away from Dior.And when Mrs. Dana showed a change in Jane, and even slowly accepted Jane's ideas, and allowed her to design clothes for Dior's new autumn style, why did Vivienne turn her head to help Jane overcome the brand launch? The suffering at the meeting made Jane finally perfectly present her work to the world at Paris Fashion Week.

Because all of Vivienne's actions revolved around Mrs. Dana's wishes.

Thanks to Qiao Lin's extraordinary performance, the filming of this scene went smoothly.During this period, Zhang Chumo, who had adjusted her emotions, also returned to the set to continue filming her airport scene.

Probably because he really wanted to understand what he should do, and without all kinds of pressure deliberately exerted by Ms. Jennifer, in the next filming, Zhang Chumo who returned was like a long sword drawn out of its sheath, and all the performances were full of excitement. It has a strong and sharp taste.Where the sword pointed, it showed its sharpness even more.A fashion designer who has just stepped into the society and is full of big ideals and ideas is played by Zhang Chumo.Just like the self in Zhang Chumo's heart - a fledgling Chinese actress, when facing Olek, who has been admired since childhood and considered to be an insurmountable mountain, she wants to be recognized by the other party Self, and try to prove their self-confidence and publicity.

Like Jane, the 22-year-old Zhang Chumo has never doubted his talent and acting skills, but there are some calm and elegant, profound experience that Zhang Chumo does not have.And this kind of elegance and profundity is the most respected aspect of "upper people" like Mrs. Dana and Ms. Jennifer.

As Tang Shi said, to some extent, Zhang Chumo and Jane, Ms. Jennifer and Mrs. Dana have something in common.Fortunately, Zhang Chumo has slowly figured this out, and smoothly brought his own feelings into the role of Jane, and then perfectly displayed his acting skills.

And Zhang Chumo's next performance also made the crew members including Stan feel a lot more comfortable.When work was over in the evening, no one was criticizing whether Zhang Chumo's acting skills could support the role of Jane, and no one was talking about Tang Shi's vision.During the filming interval, Zhang Chumo, who received a friendly compliment from Ms. Jennifer, was overwhelmed by the flattery, and vowed that his next performance would be even better.

But these are things for tomorrow.

And that night, Tang Shi, who lost the "bet", had to sign countless "unequal" treaties according to Lu Hengzhi's wishes, and the two of them made a fuss until four o'clock in the morning of the next day before falling asleep for a while.

When the alarm clock woke up the next morning, Tang Shi, who had two thick dark circles on his face, looked at the messy bedroom, and Lu Hengzhi, who was sleeping soundly on the bed with a full face, had to help him. With a sore waist, he kicked Lu Hengzhi under the bed bitterly.

The soft wool carpet touched the smooth skin. Lu Hengzhi, who was awakened by the fall, yawned very lazily, sat on the carpet with a thin quilt in his arms, looked up at Tang Shi, who was blowing his beard and staring on the bed, and said with a smile: "I would like to bet and admit defeat, I'm willing to bet and admit defeat!"
