This actor needs more money

In the evening, Ding Xiu met other actors in the crew.

"Hello, Brother Xiu."

"Ding Xiu, long time no see. I heard that you have taken the Emperor of Vision. Congratulations."

"Brother Xiu, we met again. I didn't expect that we would have the opportunity to cooperate."

Not many people came in the evening, except for Zhang Ziyi whom Wang Sunjing mentioned, Liang Chaowei, Song Huiqiao, and Zhang Jin.

The last time Ding Xiu met Zhang Jin was at the premiere of Langya. Almost half a year had passed in a flash.

Compared to Zhang Jin, Ding Xiu and Liang Chaowei are strangers.

The two of them have worked together on heroes before, but because they didn't have a rival role and because they weren't popular at the time, they weren't familiar with each other. It can only be said that they were no strangers to each other.

But when they met again, Liang Chaowei was still the social fear in Ding Xiu's impression. He sat quietly in his seat, didn't talk much, and just nodded with a smile.

What Ding Xiu didn't know was that if he hadn't come to see him today, Liang Chaowei would not normally attend such dinners.

Knowing that Ding Xiu was highly skilled in martial arts and good at fighting, and that the two were rivals in the film, Liang Chaowei came over to ask for advice later in order to build a good relationship.

There was nothing he could do about it, even though he had long known that Ding Xiu could fight and had left his contact information before.

But after learning from the master who taught him Wing Chun how far Ding Xiu could fight, he realized how accomplished the young man in front of him was in martial arts.

"Sister Ziyi, if nothing else goes wrong, you will win another award for your role in Director Wang's play this time. Leave a way for us young people to survive."

Ding Xiu took off his coat and put it on the back of the chair. He smiled and chatted with Zhang Ziyi.

In terms of the number of times the two of them have collaborated, this is already the third time, so they are considered old acquaintances.

"Even if I win an award, I am also the leading actress. What does it matter?" Zhang Ziyi rolled her eyes: "On your side, leave a way for other actors to survive. I hear news about you every now and then. Either it is a box office hit or you are winning an award."

"Twenty-year-old Shidi and Best Actor, tsk tsk, the earth won't be able to accommodate you in a few years."

Ding Xiu had won the best actor award before, but the award was not very valuable. It was just a foreign film festival, but no matter how low it was, he was still the best actor.

In addition, the Shidi this time is absolutely unbelievable for his age.

Ding Xiu cupped his hands and begged for mercy: "Sister Ziyi, don't make fun of me. It's better to win a prize in front of you two than to dance with a sword in front of Guan Gong."

Zhang Ziyi, nicknamed International Zhang, has been hard-pressed to win awards in recent years. She has won several international movie queens, not to mention domestic movie queens. She is a regular visitor almost every time.

Tony Leung is even more amazing. Currently, there is no one in Hong Kong who has won the most Best Actors.

Just this year, at the Golden Horse Awards ceremony, Lust, Caution won another best actor.

After watching his film, countless male actors were jealous and wanted to act in this film for him. Ding Xiu also watched the uncut version and was so jealous that he almost broke his teeth.

If he could choose, he would rather take Lust Caution.

It’s not for anything else, it’s just for the pursuit and perseverance of art, and to win awards, the rest is not important.

But having said that, Liang Chaowei is quite popular. I heard that the heroine has been banned and her boyfriend has broken up. It can be said that she has suffered heavy losses.

"You three, please stop being modest." Zhang Jin stood up and poured wine for several people: "I am the junior here, so I would like to propose a toast to you, and look after you later."

Liang Chaowei smiled and said to Ding Xiu: "Brother Xiu is good at martial arts. Please take care of me and give me advice when you have time."

Zhang Ziyi said: "And me, I'm not very good at kung fu. I almost broke my leg when I did the splits. It took me seven or eight days to recover. Brother Xiu is good at martial arts. Please teach me the secret some other time."

"Everywhere, everyone looks up to me. We talk to each other if we don't understand. I can't talk about guidance. I did it, you can do whatever you want."

The martial arts instructor of this drama is Yuan Baye, the best martial arts instructor in the world, and Ding Xiu cannot afford to offend him.

The martial arts instructor can teach whatever he wants. Anyway, he will not interfere. Before he understands other people's tempers, he will not do anything that offends others.

Song Huiqiao didn't speak Mandarin well, and Ding Xiu and the others spoke very fast, so I didn't understand many words. I was just curious about why everyone had such a good attitude towards Ding Xiu.

She knew that Zhang Ziyi and Liang Chaowei were very popular. Even these two were so polite. You can imagine how popular Ding Xiu is.

In front of so many people, she was too embarrassed to ask for a translator, so she could only apologize and laugh.

After drinking for three rounds, Ding Xiu said to Wang Jiawei: "Director Wang, why didn't Director Xu come?"

He was asking about Xu Haofeng. He used to be called Director Xu on the set, but he never changed it, even though he knew that Xu Haofeng was only the screenwriter in this drama.

"He has something to do and won't come to the set for two days. I didn't say a word of what you asked me to tell you last time."

"Forget it, we'll meet him another day. Everyone will be happy today."

…

When Ding Xiu came to the set, he didn't want to take any time off. When he came to the set early the next morning, the staff and extras were already having dinner.

After ordering one, Ding Xiu sat on the edge to eat, occasionally chatting with the extras.

The filming location was an ancient town, and the extras were all local people who came over to make guest appearances. When Ding Xiu, a big star, chatted with them, the group of people also had something to say.

Soon, one after another, Zhang Ziyi, Liang Chaowei and others came over to put on makeup.

Ding Xiu came in a hurry and didn't tell him in advance. Naturally, the crew didn't prepare his announcement, so there was no scene for him today.

After saying hello, Ding Xiu watched everyone filming on the set.

Worthy of being the best actor, Tony Leung is very stable in acting. He is born with a melancholy temperament, has a pair of charming electric eyes, has good lines, and has high acting skills.

It's just that he is so quiet. When he was filming, no one could hear a pin drop on the set, and no one dared to disturb him.

The martial arts scenes are just average.

At least in Ding Xiu's opinion, it was average. The real Wing Chun couldn't even handle a few moves in front of him, let alone Liang Chaowei, who had only practiced for a few months.

"Brother Xiu, you've been looking at it for a long time. Do you have any pointers?"

After filming a scene, Tony Leung asked Ding Xiu while he was applying makeup.

Ding Xiu smiled bitterly: "At your stage, it's already very good to be able to fight like this. Some Wing Chun disciples I've met don't have as good a foundation as you."

Standing next to him was martial arts instructor Yuan Baye, and Wang Jiawei sat in front of the monitor. How dare he have any objections.

"Are you kind words?" Tony Leung chuckled.

The leader of Wing Chun is always abused in front of Ding Xiu. He, who is not even the second in command, must be full of mistakes in Ding Xiu's opinion.

It was just like when he watched those new actors acting, they were full of holes.

I just don't want to say more because of my feelings and status.

"Really, it's good. I'm not saying that in a polite way. It's not a life-and-death battle for filming. Your current foundation is more than enough for filming."

Art comes from life, and filming is not a martial arts competition. Many tricks are just for good looks, but they are not real martial arts killing moves.

On the surface, Liang Chaowei's martial arts are very beautiful, which is enough for filming. If he uses it to beat people, forget it.

"Master Ding, we will have the opportunity to communicate with you another day." Yuan Baye, who had been observing Ding Xiu for a while, said with a smile.

He designed all the martial arts in this drama, except for Ding Xiu's martial arts. Wang Jiawei said that Ding Xiu should be allowed to perform on his own.

He had heard the name Ding Xiu more than once, and Yuan Baye was more curious than everyone else.

Because he had worked with Ding Xiu before, it was Zhou Xingchi's kung fu. Ding Xiu played the killer Tian Can Di Que, and had a fight scene with the Hong Family Iron Fist. That scene was very exciting and eye-catching.

"Okay." Ding Xiu cupped his hands towards Yuan Baye and responded with a smile.

…

Wang Jiawei's filming was really hard. Ding Xiu came to the crew for three days and watched the show every day. He watched as Wang Jiawei brought a piece of paper to work with a few words written on it. This was the content of the day's filming.

Let alone how many days it takes to shoot one scene, he shoots one scene over how many days.

On the seventh day after joining the cast, Ding Xiu still had no role. The scene he shot today was the one he came to the set the next day to film with Liang Chaowei.

Ding Xiu has been busy these days. He holds the script in his hand and studies the character, trying to figure out the role well.

"Don't look at it, it's useless."

At some point, Xu Haofeng, who had a Chen Haonan hairstyle and black-rimmed glasses, came up behind Ding Xiu.

After not seeing each other for a few years, Xu Haofeng has become a little fatter and a little older. He is only eight years older than Ding Xiu and already has a lot of white hair on his head.

Taking the script in Ding Xiu's hand and throwing it on the chair, Xu Haofeng put his butt directly on his butt, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and said:

"Director Wang doesn't follow the script when filming. He pays attention to it one day at a time. It's useless if you watch it. When filming on his crew, be prepared to be half a director yourself."

Wang Jiawei is a weirdo, with wild and unconstrained ideas, and it's all about how he feels when filming.

And he has eight hundred feelings a day.

The script that I worked so hard on in the early stages was rejected every day after filming started.

Fortunately, Wang Jiawei didn't just deny him as a person, he also denied the martial arts movements, the actors' acting skills, the camera, and the lighting.

Ordinary actors would not dare to take his roles, and those without any strength would be driven crazy.

"You didn't know it when you first came here. Uncle Motoyama also had a cameo in this drama, but he was finished filming. From joining the cast to finishing filming, he didn't understand who the character he was playing was. Director Wang didn't give him any information before he left. An answer.”

Ding Xiu: "..."

Good guy, I've long heard that Wang Sunglasses is unreliable in filming, but I didn't expect him to be so unreliable. He overturned the script and martial arts moves at will, and even the actor didn't know who the character he was playing was after the filming was completed. It's so outrageous.

Xu Haofeng pointed at the script under his butt with a cigarette between his fingers: "When you shoot, if you can shoot according to the above, I will eat the script."

"I believe this." Ding Xiu nodded helplessly: "Then I can't wander around the set every day, right? I have to make some preparations."

"Don't prepare. Your best condition is martial arts. Director Wang will guide you on how to shoot when the time comes. Preparing by yourself is just a waste of time. If you have nothing to do, you can learn from Song Huiqiao and play badminton."

Ding Xiu shook his head and refused: "Forget it, I still like multi-person sports."

In the evening, the crew, Ding Xiu, Song Huiqiao, Xu Haofeng, and Zhang Ziyi, played mahjong.

"Two barrels!"

"Touch! Thirty thousand."

"Ninety thousand!"

"Gong, find out what you are doing!"

Needless to say, mahjong is much more fun than badminton. Song Huiqiao only learned a few rounds before she started playing. She became more and more skilled as she played.

Even Liang Chaowei, who usually has a stern face, looked here from time to time during filming. Once when he saw Song Huiqiao firing a cannon for Ding Xiu, he shouted anxiously.

As soon as the filming was over, he immediately ran over to jump in and play a few laps. With the sound of mahjong being banged on the table, it seemed as if all the fatigue of the day was gone.

In the director's studio, Wang Jiawei secretly scolded Ding Xiu, the troublemaker, countless times.

Before Ding Xiu came, the atmosphere on the set was very good, and there was no peace once he arrived.

"Brother Xiu, come early tomorrow. You will have a play tonight. Let's discuss how to play."

"Okay, got it, Rokujo."

To be honest, it didn't matter if Wang Jiawian didn't arrange for Ding Xiu to play. Anyway, he was on a monthly basis, and he got paid for playing mahjong every day, so why not do it.

Ding Xiu took out a few 100 bills from the table in front of him and gave them to Zhao Liying: "Xiao Zhao, go buy some barbecue and beer for a late-night snack."

Xu Haofeng said quickly while counting the cards: "A few more skewers of kidneys, as well as leeks."

Zhang Ziyi said: "I'll just eat some vegetables."

"Okay, noted it down."

"Brother Xiu, it has to be you. Before you came, our life was like an ascetic. No one dared to speak out."

"Once you came here, our life became more colorful and we became more energetic every day."

"Thanks to you, that is, you, Director Wang dare not say anything."

As long as it's not filming time, Wang Jiawei is actually quite friendly, but because of his fame and status, everyone is a little afraid to joke with him.

Furthermore, during the filming during the day, he was scolded so much that no one could talk to him in a friendly manner. It would have been nice if he didn't hit anyone.

Before Ding Xiu came, only Liang Chaowei and Wang Jiawei could get along.

Because Liang Chaowei is a boring gourd, he talks very little throughout the day. When he is not filming, he is resting in the hotel and practicing martial arts.

Ding Xiu nodded, and when he saw Wang Jiawei coming this way, he immediately said loudly: "Where, Director Wang is still very talkative and kind-hearted."

"Stop flattering me. You know whether I am friendly or not." Wang Jiawei pulled up a chair and sat next to the mahjong table, lit a cigarette and said with a smile: "When I was filming East Evil and West Poison, I didn't dare to close my eyes at night because I was afraid. Being beaten up."

"I always take my assistant or deputy director with me when I go out. In short, I won't go out alone."

He knows his own temper better than anyone else. The set is really torturous, and anyone with a bad attitude can be driven crazy. Some people, after working with him once, directly stated that they would not work with him again in the future.

But he also did it for the good of the movie. He had no choice but to do it, that’s it.

Ding Xiu smiled and said, "Then you should wear a helmet these days."

Wang Jiawei: "I'm not afraid of other people. As long as you don't put a sack on me, just hit me with a sap."

There are only a few actors in the crew. Zhang Ziyi and Song Huiqiao will definitely not hit anyone. Liang Chaowei is an old friend and has always been a pleasure to work with, so they will not hit him.

Zhang Jin's position is small, so he's very happy to be in the group, and he doesn't dare to have any opinions.

Ding Xiu is the only one who is not afraid of anything.

"A society governed by law is not a problem." Ding Xiu waved his hand.

Wang Jiawei didn't say that he hadn't thought of this yet. With his skills, if he hit someone with a sap, no one should be able to prevent him.

Seeing Ding Xiu staring at him, Wang Jiawei's back felt cold: "I'm joking, don't take it seriously."
