This actor needs more money
Chapter 192 You are noble and awesome
It is a fact that artists do not have the time and energy to verify the authenticity of endorsed products.
There are countermeasures from above and strategies from below. If someone dares to sell something, the business license must have been obtained long ago, unless you unpack it and find a professional team to test it in person.
But who has that skill?
Even if the batch you randomly inspect passes the test, can you guarantee that the subsequent products will not be defective?
So Yang Siwei said that he would no longer accept small products. Ding Xiu was heartbroken but not angry.
Then there is the issue of commercial performances. Although the money is a lot, the risks do exist. When a hot pot restaurant opens, you will be invited to stand on the stage. As soon as you leave, someone will hang a photo of you and the boss in the lobby to attract customers.
In the past, when he was short of money, Ding Xiu took on any job. In fact, it wasn't just him, it was the same with other artists.
Brother Cheng Long’s status is big enough, and one of his endorsements is closed.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk!"
Hearing someone knocking on the car door, Ding Xiu turned around and looked over.
"I'm not bothering you." Yu Chenghui, who was wearing a fisherman's hat and a long white beard, said with a smile and his hands behind his back.
Ding Xiu smiled and cupped his hands: "Senior Yu, long time no see."
Yu Chenghui was the first opponent he fought against after coming to this world. Back on the set of Swordsman, the two had a fight, and he used Japanese swordsmanship to break his two-handed sword.
Afterwards, when Yu Chenghui learned that she was a close friend, her attitude towards him skyrocketed and she even introduced him to Yu Hai to fight Mantis Boxing.
Several years have passed since they were separated, and Yu Chenghui's appearance has hardly changed, still in the same state.
But my spirit is much worse than it was a few years ago.
When Ding Xiu saw him before, his eyes were piercing and his eyes were as sharp as those of an eagle, making people afraid to look at him.
Now the starlight is dim and much peaceful, no different from ordinary old people.
On the contrary, Ding Xiu's aura is more stable and his body bones are stronger. He is as quiet as a rabbit and as active as a tiger.
The first time the two fought against each other, Ding Xiu was twenty years old, and his body bones were not fully opened. He had just started practicing martial arts at that time, and his control of the body was not as strong as in his previous life.
After five years of hard work, his body was at its peak, and he could at least restore to the level of his previous life.
The main reason is that in the peaceful and prosperous times, without the courage to fight and kill, distinguish between superior and inferior, and decide life and death, Ding Xiu's strength will naturally not reach the peak state of his previous life.
Therefore, his kung fu is only about 70% or 88% of what he had in his previous life, and the remaining 20% to 30% is his determination to either die or live during the battle.
Without this will, he would never be able to return to the level of his previous life.
Unless you give up your comfortable life and go to a war-torn area to continue fighting, you will be back to that state in a few months.
But this is impossible.
With a net worth of tens of millions, stars holding the moon, clothes to put on, food to eat, and beautiful women by his side, Ding Xiu would only live such a life if he was crazy.
"Senior Yu, please." After inviting people into the RV, Ding Xiu said to Zhao Liying: "Take out the tea that Director Zhao sent two days ago and brew it."
The two of them sat opposite each other. Yu Chenghui looked at the RV and said with a smile: "You are living a very comfortable life, but I don't know if you have lost your skills."
Having a million-dollar RV and being served by a travel assistant is not a good thing for a warrior.
Practicing martial arts is hard work, and if life is too sweet, you don’t want to suffer anymore.
Ding Xiu shook his head and laughed: "It's similar to the old man and old lady in the park. I just box a few times every morning to exercise."
Yu Chenghui sighed: "What a pity."
From what I have seen in my life, the person with the highest martial arts skills is Ding Xiu, and the person I am most optimistic about is also Ding Xiu.
When he first heard that Ding Xiu had defeated Wu Bing, Yu Hai, and the Sanda Boxing Champion, he couldn't tell how happy he was.
I thought Ding Xiu could rise up with Chuanwu.
Who would have thought that after not seeing him for a few years, he has become a household name and a big star. There is no news about martial arts, but his advertisements are often seen on TV.
Her acting career is also booming, and she is on the red carpet and winning awards.
According to Ding Xiu's usual habit, Zhao Liying first washed the tea and then brewed it with boiling water. Then she placed the teapot and teacup in front of the two of them and gave them a cup each.
After doing these things, she retreated to the sofa and went about her work.
Holding the tea cup, Ding Xiu said softly: "There is nothing to regret. The goal has been achieved. Isn't it normal for the birds to disappear and the good bow to be hidden?"
Yu Chenghui was so angry that his beard trembled: "Do you learn kung fu just to get rich?"
Ding Xiu played with the tea cup, playing with the taste: "Then what do you think Kung Fu is used for?"
Yu Chenghui pursed his lips, and after a few seconds he said: "Kung Fu was originally a killing technique, and in modern times it was used to strengthen the body."
Even he had to admit that in modern society, kung fu is really just about strengthening the body.
After the 1970s and 1980s, many old masters only taught the method but not the fighting method. Later, they no longer taught the training method. They only taught the acting method and the acting of the performance.
I also learned Taekwondo from abroad and developed a martial arts division.
How is it divided? The more beautiful you play and the more standard your movements are, the higher your rank will be.
If these standards were heard by ancient martial arts practitioners during the Republic of China, they would probably crawl out of their coffins.
I'm angry, but there's nothing I can do about it.
Real Kung Fu are all killing techniques, targeting the weak parts of the human body. In modern society, they are not allowed to be used, and it is illegal to hit them.
The master is unwilling to teach, and the apprentice is unwilling to learn.
Let me ask, who is willing to spend decades learning a subject that will never be used, and will go to jail if used?
Ding Xiu put down his tea cup and refilled himself a cup: "You also said that kung fu was the earliest killing technique, so why kill people? In order to live, to survive, to support the family."
"When the above conditions are met, you must not let go of your hard work."
"Let's talk about keeping fit. Jump rope, swim, and go to the gym on Saturdays and Sundays to lift irons. Isn't it better than practicing martial arts?"
Kung Fu first came from the military. If you want to survive, you can only study various moves to kill your opponent as quickly as possible, and form a system over time.
Why do people practice martial arts? They just want to live. Joining the army can reduce taxes, gain rewards for achieving a certain level of performance, and improve family conditions.
Pushing the timeline forward tens of thousands of years, during the primitive man period, the ancestors picked up sticks and fought with wild animals in order to survive.
When there is no threat to life and people no longer worry about safety, martial arts is destined to decline.
Forging swords into plowshares, an era without martial arts is the best era.
In the past, Ding Xiu secretly laughed at Cheng Xiaodong, Yuan Bing and the others. The martial arts they had practiced since childhood were all wasted after decades of age, and their strength deteriorated to the same level as ordinary people.
Later, he gradually understood that he was making millions a year, living in a gentle countryside, surrounded by beauties, driving luxury cars, and living in luxury houses. Who would bother practicing martial arts?
Looking at the smoking tea in front of him, Yu Chenghui couldn't take a sip. He couldn't refute Ding Xiu. After a long time, he said:
"If we regard martial arts as a sport, can't it be to explore the physical limits and see another scenery?"
Ding Xiu was surprised, and immediately raised the corners of his mouth, clapped his hands, and gave a thumbs up.
"You are noble and great."
This is not sarcasm, it is literal.
Practicing martial arts is to pursue the physical limit and see a different scenery. This is the first time Ding Xiu has heard this in his two lifetimes.
He said that what he saw and what he saw in the martial arts world was nothing more than fame and fortune.
After learning martial arts and selling them to the emperor's family, even uncles and masters were not exempt from the secular world. Unexpectedly, Yu Chenghui gave another answer.
Yu Chenghui smiled and cupped his hands: "Thank you."
After practicing martial arts all his life, he had just found the meaning of life. After the words came out of his mouth, he suddenly became enlightened and felt an indescribable feeling of joy all over his body.
Picking up the teacup, he blew the hot air away and took a sip of the clear, fragrant hot tea.
“Good tea.”
Recalling the first half of his life, he first learned martial arts as a hobby, then he started fighting with others, and then after he gained both fame and fortune, he didn't know why he started practicing martial arts, but there was always a vague voice in his heart telling him to practice more. .
Unfortunately, I understood it a little late.
I have wasted a lot of time in the past few years. I am over sixty years old. Seeing that I am seventy years old, I can no longer fight. I am out of breath after a set of sword skills.
"Forget it for today, let's do some tricks another day to see how many tricks we can fight with you."
"No problem, I'll be with you anytime. Wait, aren't you here specifically to compete with me?"
"Of course, no, I'm here to film. I'll play Huang Yaoshi, and we have a scene opposite each other."
Yu Chenghui's side job is as an actor, and he has done as many movies as Ding Xiu. What he didn't want to come to this time was because Zhang Jizhong said that Ding Xiu was the protagonist and they had a martial arts scene.
Thinking that I had not seen him for several years, my hands were itchy, so I agreed to play the role of Huang Yaoshi.
Because there were few scenes, we couldn't shoot for a few days in total, so I joined the cast late. When I arrived at the hotel today, I came to see Ding Xiu as soon as possible.
…
Ding Xiu and Yu Chenghui had a very lively chat and drank several pots of tea. In the middle, the two of them stopped talking about martial arts. Instead, they chatted about family matters and gossip.
Speaking of the wonderful actors she met while filming, Yu Chenghui talked endlessly.
For example, some people can't do backflips, and some people fall and run to the hospital immediately. In the horse riding scenes, they don't ride horses, but they sit on people's shoulders.
What's even more amazing is that he doesn't say any lines during the filming, but says one, two, three, four, substitutes with hands, light body, back, text, martial arts, etc.
Ding Xiu was stunned for a moment.
He had heard of actors reading numbers while filming, but he had never encountered it before. Maybe he was working with big directors on their films, and the actors he had always met were very dedicated.
Even if they are foreign actors who don't understand the language, they still speak their lines in their own language.
Reading the numbers one, two, three and four is really weird, to be honest.
Ding Xiu couldn't even think about using a body double for filming.
Half of his character is martial arts. If he uses a stand-in, is it necessary for him to exist? Acting alone cannot support a hero movie.
After Yu Chenghui left, Zhao Liying packed up the tea sets and asked in confusion: "Brother Xiu, you obviously haven't fallen behind in your practice. You practice often. How can you say it's just for fitness."
When he is not working, Ding Xiu often practices swordsmanship and boxing in the yard. That frequency has exceeded the concept of fitness.
Ding Xiu laughed at himself: "If you had seen how I practiced martial arts before, you wouldn't ask such a question."
Compared with before, the amount of exercise now is really no different from fitness.
Zhao Liying seemed very diligent, but to him she was already lazy.
After opening the window and blowing in the wind, Ding Xiu squinted and looked outside, murmuring: "It's a bit difficult to break the limits of your body."
That's right, what Yu Chenghui has been pursuing all his life is just a little difficult for him.
The difficulty lies in not being able to kill people.
Just looking for someone to sign and point to the end will not be able to display your full strength.
The ancients said that there is great wisdom between life and death. Modern warriors cannot understand the feeling of the blade of the knife grazing across the neck and dancing on the tip of the knife.
…
"Director Zhang, I would like to take a leave of absence. Xiao Yuer and Hua Wuque is about to be aired. There is a promotion period for a few days."
On this day, after filming one piece, Ding Xiu and Zhang Jizhong asked for leave while waiting.
Zhang Jizhong is a producer, not a director, but everyone is accustomed to calling him Director Zhang. In this drama, Lao Zhang plays a guest role as Yelu Chucai, and today it is his turn to film the drama.
Staying on the set every day, Lao Zhang is very addicted to acting. From time to time, he plays guest roles, which is not surprising to everyone.
Over the years, Zhang Jizhong has appeared in many guest roles. He played the role of Old Hongye in Xiao Yu'er and Hua Wu Que. Not to mention, his acting skills are no worse than those of professional actors.
"It's a small matter, please tell Zhao Jian the specific time." It was a hot day, Zhang Jizhong was wearing a big cloak, and he didn't mind the heat, so he agreed to Ding Xiu's request for leave without thinking.
It is normal for actors to cooperate with the crew in publicity. Although taking a few days off will delay the filming progress, it is not a big deal. Just adjust it.
You are so stubborn that you can't let people go. After a few days of filming, they leave after their contract expires. Where are you going to find someone?
The contract stated that the filming would last for 120 days, but the specific conditions were unknown. It was windy and rainy, and there were equipment problems. It was normal for the delay to be ten and a half months.
So as long as nothing goes too far, the crew will not fall out with the lead actor.
"Thank you, Director Zhang." Ding Xiu bowed his hands and went to report to Zhao Jian.
Zhang Jizhong agreed, and Zhao Jian had no reason to disagree, so the leave was finalized.
In the afternoon, during his free time, Yu Chenghui threw a knife to Ding Xiu: "Two moves."
"Okay." Ding Xiu put down the thermos cup, stood up with the knife, and moved his shoulders.
Holding a long sword in both hands, Yu Chenghui said seriously: "I have studied your move many times in the past few years. Do you dare to reproduce it again? Today I will break your move."
Unexpectedly, the old man was so persistent. Ding Xiu smiled and said, "Okay."
Taking two steps back, Ding Xiu sank down and held the handle of the knife with his backhand.
Yu Chenghui held the sword with both hands and did not attack immediately. He stared directly at Ding Xiu's hand holding the sword.
"Hey, Ding Xiu and Mr. Yu are competing. Come and watch."
Over there, Zhao Jian, who was preparing to film, heard this and immediately ran out of the director's studio and joked:
"On the night of the full moon, on the top of the Forbidden City, the duel between the Sword Master and the Sword God is worth watching."
Yu Chenghui did not participate in the martial arts competition, but he won the title of Sword Master, which is a good indication of his strength.
Not to mention Ding Xiu, everyone who has worked with him knows that he has great martial arts skills and even the Sanda boxing champion has to kneel down when he meets him.
A few years ago, the two of them were lucky enough to compete once, that time in Siguoya Cave in Swordsman. Unfortunately, only Yuan Bing watched, and no one else saw it. It was a pity.
The director ran away, the camera failed to film, and the actors couldn't perform well, so they came over one by one to watch.
Not far from the crew, a commercial car stopped. Cheng Long, wearing sunglasses and a Tang suit, stepped out of the car, followed by bodyguard Lu Huiguang.
Seeing people on three floors inside and outside the crew, Lu Huiguang stopped Cheng Long: "Brother, don't go over there yet, I'll go take a look."
"Well, be careful." Taking a step back, Cheng Long got into the car.
Lu Huiguang has been with him for many years. He is both a brother of the Cheng family and his bodyguard.
His record is that he has won the Hong Kong Island Muay Thai Championship for six consecutive times. He is most famous for his whip kick. He can bend the steel pipe with one sweep of his leg. He is very powerful.
An ordinary person would get hit in the leg and break his leg immediately.
The mastermind behind the scenes, you can take a look if you like
