Shenhao UP Lord

Chapter 252 History of Blood and Tears
The reason why I said this is because I don’t want too many people to waste their youth on impulse, especially for young people who have just graduated.

The odds of becoming a highly anticipated star in the traffic era are harder than winning the lottery jackpot!
What's more, I don't know how many unknown inside stories and unspoken rules are hidden behind it!
"So listen to Brother Xu's persuasion, if you graduated from a professional art school, I suggest you come here to hone and hone, after all, this is the real reality."

"If you are just an ordinary person, even if you are good-looking and even love acting, of course you can come here to experience the life of group acting."

"But you have to be calm!"

"Because this is not the Vanity Fair that became popular overnight, but the fiercely competitive Colosseum. Acting skills are not the only criterion!"

"Humanity and sophistication are all knowledge!"

"Brother Xu can only say that."

Today's material is basically done, just wait for others to come back, the two videos are ready.When I came to the Marriott Hotel to check in, there was a senior Heng Piao waiting to break the news at night.

"Boss, this is our stills from today!"

"Isn't it a bit ugly?"

"You don't know that those clothes are dirty and smelly, and they have been out of play for many years!"

"Why am I standing there stupidly?"

"Shishi actually has two lines!"

Listening to Sakura's chatter, Fat Tiger's face is full of contempt, why don't you look in the mirror?

If it wasn't for Lao Tzu's relationship to bring you into the group, would you like to film?

Eat farts!
Ding Xu laughed, Hengdian has no shortage of beauties, not to mention men, there are almost no women who dare to come here to make a living.

The looks of Xiao Ying and Gou Tuanzi are only above average, especially because they are not tall, compared to Si Nan and Shi Shi, as long as their eyes are not blind, they can definitely be seen at a glance.

Talk about this kind of thing lazily, and asked Fat Hu: "When will the person who arranged it arrive?"

"Already on the way." Fat Tiger just hung up the phone and said: "Two ten minutes."

Ding Xu nodded and asked Xiao Hei to export all the materials. To be honest, the materials of the four vases are so-so. After all, as a group performer, you have to listen to the director's arrangement, and there is basically no room for development.

"Boss, this is an old demon. He has been acting in groups for five years, and he is a well-known veteran."

"Hello Brother Xu, my name is Wang Hao, please take care of me." The old demon in his early thirties was very energetic, and when he saw the rich boss in Fat Tiger's mouth, he said politely: "I don't dare to be an old Jianghu, but I just hang out for a long time."

Ding Xu greeted warmly, and started recording after a brief communication. Facing the camera, he opened the scene and said, "Brother Xu invited a senior person today to chat with the brothers about the ups and downs of group performances, okay?"

"Please invite the Hengdian old demon!"

"Hello everyone, I am Lao Yao. I am honored to be interviewed by Brother Xu. I am also a member of Station B. We are all our own people."

"It is said that Hengdian is a mirror of the film and television industry, reflecting the ups and downs of this colorful world. Since the cold wave of film and television has enveloped the industry last year, how do you feel as a witness?"

The old demon sighed and said: "Hey, Hengdian has indeed been depressed a lot in the past two years, and a lot of extras have also left. Many people can't get jobs and don't even have enough to eat, so they have no choice but to leave."

"In the summer of 15, I quit my Japanese translation and met two friends from the Northeast to this Hengdian, which is known as the Hollywood of the East. I didn't dare to copy the myths of Wang Baoqiang and Zhao Liying, but I wanted to change my mood. Long-term I have gained a lot of knowledge and seen the world, but it’s hard to say that I don’t have any daydreams about flying on the branches and becoming a phoenix.”

"I stayed here for five years, from being a group performer to being a special agent, as an assistant director, and even working behind the scenes in the director's group. I also experienced the embarrassment of not acting in a play, and was favored by the crew because of several rare specialties... "

"Of course, we also meet all kinds of people, such as vegetable sellers, gambling people, and loan sharks... But in Hengdian we all have one identity, that is, extras."

The old demon is quite educated, Ding Xu nodded secretly after saying something, and continued to ask: "Can you tell me more about it?"

"Before I set foot on the train to Hengdian, I thought I might just be a film and television fan in my life, but the nine-to-five job and the boredom of real life still gave me a push, which made me determined to get out of the embarrassing situation of being muddled."

"The first thing everyone who comes to Hengdian needs to solve is the housing problem. In addition to the necessary survival foundation, they also need housing contracts, temporary residence permits and other relevant documents to apply for an actor's license."

"After everything is settled, your ensemble career will officially begin."

The old demon confessed to the camera: "All horizontal actors must start from the bottom of the masses, and I am no exception, but after running for a few days, I found that this was not done by humans at all. Not only is the work tiring, but the The money is still low, for newcomers like us, a hundred a day is considered a high salary."

"A lot of things are not just about the tiredness of staying up late and low wages. You can hardly imagine the bad scenes of filming, such as filming in the rain at night, being watered by the faucet, and running in the big mud all night..."

"If you do this kind of work for one day, you have to take a week's rest. If there is an accident, no one will necessarily take care of it. Most of the time, only those who work in a group are covered by insurance."

"On the second day of running the crowd, I still witnessed two groups of devils fighting. The reason is that everyone wanted to rush home when work was over, and they unintentionally squeezed out some small friction?"

"In one martial art, I beat up the group performers. In fact, everyone is a group performer, but there are always some people who feel that they are superior and stand on the upper level of the chain of contempt. If you come and go, you will do it."

"At that time, I only had one thought: This is really not done by humans!"

The old demon seemed to still have lingering fears when he recalled: "Later, a producer I met on the set suggested that if I don't want to be a group performer, I can go with the set. There is a fixed salary, food and housing, and it is always more stable."

"Anyway, I don't know how to act, so I just went to study. Fortunately, because many crews who can speak Japanese are short of people, I spent the first year in Hengdian with the crew. Now I think it's really lucky."

"In that year, I almost followed three or four large groups, such as "Wuxin Master", and of course there were some groups. Gradually, I became familiar with the process and routines of the crew's operation, and also learned a lot of acting skills. In the second year, I decided to Come out and run by yourself, after all, you are limited in all aspects with the group.”

"This time, we will start with the foreground group performance. The foreground group performance refers to actors who appear closer to the camera than the protagonist, and are mainly used for background display."

"At that time, I wasn't really picky about the roles. As long as I could act, it didn't matter if I had leftovers. Whether it was a period drama or an anti-Japanese drama, a TV series or an Internet drama, whether it could be broadcast or not, the drama in Hengdian was still nearby. Those from Xiangshan and Taihu Lake will all go to play guest roles, and experience is the most important thing, especially when you don’t know anything.”

"But every time you stand there waiting for the candidate director to choose, it's a bit like the black slaves in the United States in the past. A big car is put in for you, and no one cares about the scene, and the attitude is not good. Well, while being funny, there is also a bit of tragic sadness."
