Chapter 103 Entering the Play
The only downside to Xu Zhizhi sitting in the front row is that the cameras are too strict.
The live camera would occasionally pan to her, and the host would cue her from time to time.
Movies and TV series collided and all became hits. This is unprecedented in the entertainment industry.
So she was the most popular on the red carpet and no one dared to grab her spot.
Generally speaking, some people would be dissatisfied with a newcomer like Xu Zhizhi.
Xu Zhizhi didn't think about these things. She was muttering to herself and looking around to pretend that she was not daydreaming.
Zhang Yan thought about it, then came to Xu Zhizhi and said, "You are unique. To be honest, no one on the Internet has discussed you in a confused way. People discuss a movie or a TV series in their own way. It's a good thing that the audience doesn't discuss you in a confused way."
It has to be thanks to Xu Zhizhi’s good acting skills that she can play any role well, otherwise the audience would be confused if they were colliding like this.
Xu Zhizhi glanced at Zhang Yan and whispered, "Are you planning to invite me to participate in the
Part Two? Don’t be so polite, you can just say it directly. ”
Zhang Yan is a very reliable person and it was a pleasure to get along with him during filming.
"Hehehe," Zhang Yan smiled a little embarrassedly, "Your sister-in-law has been asking me to invite you."
Xu Zhizhi shook her head helplessly, "That won't work. I took a movie shoot in the spring, and it will take half a year!"
"Waiting for you. Your sister-in-law and I are waiting for your schedule. We want a schedule in the second half of next year." Zhang Yan said with a wave of his hand.
Originally, he was scheduled to shoot the film in the second half of the year. Xu Zhizhi did not ask about the remuneration, nor did she say anything coy. He also said frankly that he would wait for Xu Zhizhi.
It would only be delayed by about half a month, and he could afford to wait that time.
Xu Zhizhi said bluntly: "That won't work, I read the script!"
Zhang Yan raised his eyebrows and said confidently, "Of course! Don't worry about that. I'll mail the script to you and you can take a good look at it. If you're not satisfied, you can just throw it in my face!"
He was confident in his script and felt that he could rely on
The first film, which gradually developed into a series of films.
Not only to continue the glory, but also because of the original intention of making movies, he wants to make a high-quality series of movies that belong to the local area.
Xu Zhizhi nodded and continued to watch the progress of the ceremony.
Xu Zhizhi really wanted the honor, but the reason she kept an eye on the progress was not because of this, but because she didn't want to be caught gossiping again.
The label of "melon-eating actress" is a bit embarrassing.
The awards for Best Actor and Best Actress in a TV Series were announced before the Best Actor and Best Actress in a Movie. Xu Zhizhi managed to be dignified and elegant, but actually yawned secretly when the camera was moved away.
"Hahahaha, Zhizhi is the same as always. I thought she had changed this year, but I was overthinking it."
"She won't forget. The camera just moved away a little bit, not completely."
"You don't care at all, right? Well, actually we fans don't care either. We celebrated the event instead of watching dramas and movies."
In the live broadcast room, the bullet screen refreshed very quickly, and Xu Zhizhi's actions blew out the potential fans.
There were also some people who said sarcastic words, but unfortunately Xu Zhizhi's fans ignored them all and let the barrage of comments float away.
Yun Ziwei was watching the public opinion online and was speechless for a moment when she saw this scene. Is this the legendary "lying-flat" fan?
However, she didn't have time to think about this.
Because the host on the stage was announcing the Magnolia Award for Best Actress in a TV Series.
That is the legendary TV queen!
In fact, this is not uncommon for some first-line stars. It's a bit embarrassing to say that they don't have a Best Actress or Best TV Actress or Best Actor award.
It was all luck for Xu Zhizhi, otherwise she would have won the award long ago.
As someone who cares more about the award than herself, Yun Ziwei keeps her eyes fixed on the scene.
"Okay, the nominated TV series have been aired, and they are all excellent TV series. Each of our eight candidates is very strong! So who among us will get this award?" The female host's last half sentence was meaningful, and her eyes fell on every female star nominated for Best Actress on the scene.
The intense BGM sounded and the atmosphere in the venue became tense.
The male host also looked at the scene, "Who is it then? Please look at the big screen!"
After the host finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and asked everyone to look at the screen.
The hostess at the side spoke at the right time, "Xu Zhizhi! Welcome Xu Zhizhi, who won the Best TV Series Actress Award for "Trial in the Sun"! Now, please invite our Zhizhi to come up and receive the award!"
Xu Zhizhi was stunned for two seconds, then stood up gracefully.
She wasn't too surprised, but she still showed modest surprise. She was mainly a little bit afraid to imagine it. There are some things that you can't really face and remain completely calm even if you have expected them.
She stood up and walked up the stairs step by step.
The red skirt, paired with gaudy makeup, and black curly hair falling on her snow-white collarbone and arms, created a striking contrast between black and white. Her unabashed walking posture made her look exceptionally dignified.
There is no expression of extreme humility, but rather an expression of "I just deserve this award."
He was very assertive and showed no signs of weakness.
After accepting the trophy and flowers and saying a few simple and thoughtful words of thanks, Xu Zhizhi walked off the stage leisurely.
In the subsequent group awards, Xu Zhizhi stood aside calmly, playing the role of a supporting actor.
Xu Zhizhi was nominated for Best Actress in a Film, but did not win the award.
Because it is really difficult, Xu Zhizhi can only try again next year.
But the best movie was "The Secret Life of a Young Woman".
The best TV series was not "My Dear Hometown", but Director Zhou's TV series.
Zhang Yanle has blossomed, and Xu Hua has no regrets. He is still young in the film industry and will have plenty of opportunities in the future.
Xu Zhizhi didn't feel anything, just felt very tired.
After the magnolia flowers bloomed, the first thing Xu Zhizhi did was to go home and sleep.
Yun Ziwei let her do what she wanted, after all, she was really tired during this period.
Xu Zhizhi lay there like this and rested until the New Year.
The Chinese New Year is always the busiest time. After Xu Zhizhi turned down several Spring Festival Galas, she was finally able to get busy visiting friends and relatives.
It's just people who know each other looking at each other and chatting.
Then spend the New Year with my parents and relatives.
This year, Qin Su brought his parents, grandparents to Beijing. Xu Zhizhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, wondering how Qin Su convinced his family.
The two did not formally meet their parents. Qin Su knew that Xu Zhizhi was at the peak of her career and did not want to reveal any engagement or marriage news.
Things like this will happen naturally. Let's wait until Xu Zhizhi is willing to get married.
Xu Zhizhi had no idea, so the matter was put on hold.
Days like this are a rare moment of peace for Xu Zhizhi, and also the calm before the storm.
After taking on that movie, Xu Zhizhi knew that she would not be able to calm down on the set.
Xu Zhizhi found it a little strange. It was the first time she entered the crew knowing the situation.
During this short period of time, the system has been trying to harass Xu Zhizhi and make her agree.
Including but not limited to the extent of deliberate harassment, attempting to make Xu Zhizhi agree to him while she is not in a sober state.
As the time for Xu Zhizhi to join the crew drew near, she became more and more anxious.
Xu Zhizhi gradually realized that the system might be deceiving her.
What the other party said is totally unbelievable.
After acquiring the deception skills, Xu Zhizhi had a strong intuition about lies. She later analyzed carefully and found that the other party was probably mixing the truth with lies.
First of all, it may be true that only three tasks can be issued after upgrading, because if it is not the third task, the system will not choose to show its cards.
Another point is that there is no question of whether to accept a task or not, only whether to complete it or not.
There should be certain boundaries for this, and the system cannot do whatever it wants.
After completing the task and accumulating 100,000 malicious points, the system will release the matter. Xu Zhizhi didn't realize whether it was true or not. This is the most serious area where the system mixes truth with falsehood.
But great efforts can bring miracles. She can try to work harder and move towards the goal of 100,000 malicious points.
Finally, regarding the contract, the system is clearly a fraud.
This punishment clearly exceeds the limits of the system, and the system must obtain Xu Zhizhi's consent before the contract can take effect.
This is what the other party wants to achieve most by deceiving her.
Xu Zhizhi felt complicated because she almost agreed.
Fortunately, Xu Hua in the script clearly realized that he was not omnipotent and that he could be fooled, so he became a little wary.
All Xu Zhizhi can do now is wait, until the system realizes that she, Xu Zhizhi, is not easy to deceive.
Just like last time, the other party will change his mind sooner or later.
The first month of the lunar year was almost over, and Xu Zhizhi officially received the notice to join the crew and began to prepare for the makeup photo shoot for "The Decision of the Game".
As the only female lead, Xu Zhizhi has four sets of makeup, representing the four stages of the female lead Wen Yang.
Xu Zhizhi read the script over and over again, thinking through every detail.
It was not difficult for her to take makeup photos.
The only downside is that the makeup photos took a week to shoot, and Xu Zhizhi felt that she had become so absorbed in the character's character, Wen Yang.
The ending is also gratifying. The director and producer are very satisfied, and Xu Zhizhi's makeup photos were delivered perfectly.
The director is a male actor named Li Feng, an ordinary name.
But the other party's filmmaking is not ordinary. He is very good at portraying characters in some meaningful films. He is a person who is very strict with himself when it comes to filming. Chu Lu felt that she couldn't shoot and couldn't control it, so she asked him to come.
Xu Zhizhi didn't search for information on purpose, but Yun Ziwei was very good at finding out the director's preferences.
So after joining the crew, Xu Zhizhi basically stopped talking nonsense in front of the other party to avoid being monitored by them about her acting skills.
This guy is quite a crazy person.
This is especially true when it comes to acting.
Xu Zhizhi has gotten used to it, and she is more likely to guess when the system will take action.
To Xu Zhizhi's surprise, the system was quite patient and remained silent.
It was not until Xu Zhizhi was washing up and about to fall asleep that the system finally spoke.
[In view of the host's non-cooperation, the content of the mission punishment has been revised. 】
[Originally, it was a transfer of the right to manipulate the body, but the host was unwilling to cooperate and sign the agreement. The system has now changed it to freezing all the host's current assets for ten years if the host fails the mission.]
Xu Zhizhi: …
How vicious! She was about to leave, but she still wanted to hate her.
Ten years!
The money she earns can be seen but not spent!
Xu Zhizhi was helpless, but this was clearly within the limits of the system, and she had to do the task whether she wanted to or not.
[Host, please welcome your final challenge! ]
After the system finished speaking, the light screen in front of it quickly disappeared.
Obviously, the system didn't want to say anything to her.
Xu Zhizhi looked calmly at the disappearing light screen in front of her, her eyes slowly becoming dangerous where the system couldn't see them.
The final challenge.
She likes it.
After a dreamless night, Xu Zhizhi woke up again and forced herself to get up to attend the power-on ceremony.
The combination of big investments and big productions, and a director who likes a sense of ceremony, results in a cumbersome and extremely long film launch conference, as long as a foot wrap.
Many reporters asked questions, and actors of all sizes sat in a row, chatting about the scene.
There was no plan to film today, but Li Feng is an interesting person and he arranged a live interpretation.
He sat aside and watched the actors perform themselves.
Reporters were filming on the side, and he was sitting nearby filming.
Xu Zhizhi looked at the skinny middle-aged man and always felt that he was looking at her from time to time.
Xu Zhizhi could only try her best to ignore it. After all, they didn't have the energy to go through a formal audition before, so it was okay for them to look at each other a little more when they just joined the group without knowing each other.
Just as the reporter started asking questions, Xu Zhizhi picked up the microphone and answered calmly.
The big screen behind me is the makeup photo.
Xu Zhizhi feels it is quite complicated.
Fortunately, this long torture finally came to an end in the afternoon.
The other actors had the same look of despair in their eyes as Xu Zhizhi, and some were even bleary-eyed.
This time the filming was done in Shanghai, a city with distinctive old and new cities, and the time span from childhood to adulthood is quite large.
Xu Zhizhi found it quite amazing that they had found a young actor who looked like herself.
The young actor was so cute and adorable that Xu Zhizhi felt her soul healed just by looking at her.
After joining the crew, Xu Zhizhi was always nervous facing the unknown.
Only when Xu Zhizhi sees truly harmless human babies does she feel relaxed. The softness, cuteness and adorableness of children can easily give adults emotional value.
This is also why many adults are willing to raise children even though it costs a lot of money.
Because it is easy to gain a lot of emotional value in the process of raising children.
Of course, Xu Zhizhi didn't think this way because she wanted to get married and have children. She was just feeling the cuteness of the cubs but how destructive they were.
The little girl also liked Xu Zhizhi very much. Children are the species that least like to pretend, so she happily gave Xu Zhizhi her favorite plum candy.
Xu Zhizhi was disrespectful.
The other party is filming today, Xu Zhizhi's scene is in the afternoon.
This afternoon was also Xu Zhizhi's first scene after joining the crew, and she was a little nervous for a rare time.
Li Feng glanced at Xu Zhizhi who was eating candy, and waved for other actors to prepare to enter the scene.
The young actor stepped forward on his short legs and began to pretend to interact with his parents.
Xu Zhizhi folded her arms and watched from the side. Li Feng directly called out to Xu Zhizhi and the other actors waiting nearby, "Watch over there!"
Everyone looked at each other and quickly stepped forward to watch.
The young actor was a little nervous being watched. Xu Zhizhi watched him lick his lips non-stop and looked at Li Feng, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.
This director was so strict that it was a little beyond Xu Zhizhi's expectations.
Li Feng noticed Xu Zhizhi's gaze, his eyes were as cold as a knife, and then he said coldly: "I hope some people will not talk too much, and don't rely on their own backstage to wantonly interfere in my affairs."
Xu Zhizhi was speechless for a moment. The other party had already said this, and if she spoke again, it would be tantamount to confirming it.
In China, the director has the highest status in the crew, and Xu Zhizhi would only be criticized if she commented on him.
Fortunately it's not a big deal. The little girl just looks a little nervous and she should be able to overcome it by herself.
The filming began soon, and Xu Zhizhi did not focus her eyes on the little girl, but looked at the director's screen.
"Mom, I want money," the girl said crisply, looking up at her mother.
The young and beautiful woman stroked her hair, took a banknote from the banknotes in front of her and gave it to the girl, "Go away, don't disturb me playing mahjong."
The girl took the money quickly.
"Click! Start over. Your expression is wrong and a little nervous!"
Li Feng said so.
The little girl was already an experienced actress and readjusted herself immediately.
Xu Zhizhi looked at him and roughly understood Li Feng's style.
And she also knew that the other party didn't like her.
To some extent, Xu Zhizhi has gotten used to it. There will always be some trouble when she joins a group. She would find it strange even if there is nothing unusual.
After more than ten NGs, the little girl finally got through the scene.
Then there are some scenes about little girls in the mahjong parlor, and the childhood stage is probably to explain the heroine's growth environment.
The focus is on character creation, and Xu Zhizhi just stands there and watches.
Until the actor-director called Xu Zhizhi and asked her to prepare for filming.
Xu Zhizhi suddenly felt a little nervous, as if she had auditioned for Bai Sheng's play three years ago.
If that was a beginning, now it is like an end.
Xu Zhizhi's character Wen Yang cheated someone for the first time. She ran away from home and was in danger on the street. Then she realized that she needed to get money.
She witnessed a man cheat, and then had no problem replicating it.
She went into a store, stole a set of clothes, and began to dress herself up with what she could get her hands on.
Finally, the image of a domineering young lady emerged.
The other party walked to a hotel without any care and took advantage of the check-out time to take a shower and spray perfume.
After targeting a luxury store, she walked into the store covered in jewelry.
Then she accidentally lost a bracelet, received a call at home saying something happened and left in a hurry. Before leaving, she told the clerk to call her if anyone found it, and she was willing to pay a reward of 100,000 yuan.
Then he left in the luxury car that he had rented for two hours at great expense.
After arriving at the designated location, Wen Yang turned into a timid little country girl who went to a luxury store to see the world.
I found the ring by accident.
The clerk decided to take advantage and paid for the ring.
The first battle was a victory.
He used five hundred yuan to defraud five thousand yuan.
What Xu Zhizhi is going to act out now is the entire process of defrauding money in a luxury store.
It may seem that this does not require acting skills, but many times, if you want to convince the audience, the most important thing you need is acting skills.
The movements, eyes, clothing, postures, etc. are coordinated to achieve the authenticity and persuasiveness of the shooting.
The character of Wen Yang is also very complex. She is proud, but also has low self-esteem.
Everything she has been exposed to since childhood has destined her to have difficulty in having truly sound values.
The right to choose seems to be always in her hands, but in reality she has no choice at all.
Xu Zhizhi finds it very difficult to perform this feeling.
In the scene, Xu Zhizhi was immersed in it because she still had tasks related to the system.
In this scam, Xu Zhizhi must actually generate more than 10 points of maliciousness.
If not, Xu Zhizhi will judge it as a mission failure.
Thinking about freezing all her assets for ten years, Xu Zhizhi felt very nervous.
Her movements became the same as Wen Yang's. Her posture was deliberately straight, but her hands were restless. However, the range of motion was very small, and a special camera was needed to focus on it.
The other camera was focused on Xu Zhizhi's face. Xu Zhizhi looked at the person in front of her with a look of perverse contempt. Her fingertips brushed over the shoes and bags on display, as if she was buying groceries.
"Customer, scratches will affect secondary sales," said the usually arrogant clerk weakly.
Although the guest in front of her looked unfamiliar, her aura was stronger than those rich ladies she had seen before, so she was a little afraid to speak.
Wen Yang looked at her with disdain, "If it's scratched, it's my fault. Will this affect the secondary sale?"
“No, no, no…”
“Crack!”
Xu Zhizhi was about to continue filming when Li Feng's voice came.
Xu Zhizhi looked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"With less evil, this character would be more complicated." Li Feng said bluntly.
A young and energetic actress should be given some pressure so that she can perform better.
Xu Zhizhi nodded thoughtfully.
He turned around and stood in the position to enter the painting. After thinking for a while, he signaled to Li Feng that he was ready.
"Let's get started!"
As the word "start" sounded, Xu Zhizhi became more immersed in it, and there were layers of changing emotions in her eyes.
There was a deep sense of anger in the eyes of the domineering Wen Yang. This was her first time to cheat someone, so it was only natural that this should happen.
Xu Zhizhi played the whole scene, portraying the gentle and masculine, fearful, malicious, and domineering look to perfection.
In a trance, Xu Zhizhi seemed to be back to the beginning of the kidnapping. The person kidnapped was that Xu Zhizhi, and the scene that Xu Zhizhi might have experienced after choosing to commit a crime was the same.
Just when Xu Zhizhi thought that this scene was perfect, Li Feng spoke again, "She's not cowardly enough. She should have the cowardice of her gigolo father in her character."
Xu Zhizhi stood at the scene, looking at Li Feng with a complicated expression.
After all, she is an actor and she gets paid for her job, so Xu Zhizhi decided to reshoot the film.
Every time Xu Zhizhi uses a fraud skill, he must ensure that the malicious value obtained is above 10.
This made Xu Zhizhi's performance particularly difficult.
An old actor walked up to Li Feng and said, "Don't vent your dissatisfaction with the girl! She's a good girl, and she didn't have to be parachuted into the group."
"No, I just pursue perfection. Xu Zhizhi obviously hasn't reached that level." Li Feng said firmly with a sharp look in his eyes.
However, in order to avoid being accused of revenge, Li Feng let Xu Zhizhi rest for a while and then gave her a reward.
Xu Zhizhi sat nearby and watched Li Feng perform.
Xu Zhizhi looked at what the other party was telling her and said directly, "You mean, I'm not into the role enough, right?"
Li Feng nodded, "Yes, you are always a little short of getting into the role, as if you are worried about something." He thought for a moment and said, "This is also the key to not winning the Best Actress award. Your acting skills are very good, and you fit the role very well, but you are just a little short of it."
Xu Zhizhi lowered her eyes, pondering this little bit of awareness.
As for what she is concerned about, she herself knows it clearly.
She herself was rejecting this role because she always felt that the plot development seemed to be a replica of something that had already happened.
There are many secrets behind this.
Xu Zhizhi couldn't figure it out for a while, which resulted in a hint of clarity in her acting.
I used to be like this, especially when I played a very vicious and cruel person.
Xu Zhizhi is always cautious, she is afraid of being assimilated.
Li Feng's vision was very sharp, and he discovered this tiny gap.
Xu Zhizhi was originally confident that she could change the director, but after Li Feng spoke frankly, she became a little uncertain.
"Xu Zhizhi, since you have joined the crew without any audition, then you should show your full potential."
Li Feng said calmly when Xu Zhizhi was thinking with her head down.
Xu Zhizhi's eyelashes, as long as crow feathers, trembled slightly. She thought for a few seconds, raised her eyes and said "hmm", "Okay."
