Superstars start as villains

Chapter 20 Star Temperament.

Facts have proved that God is fair. When opening a window for you, it will often close a door. Zhou Xing’s appearance is very good, but his voice can only be regarded as mediocre. The previous vocal teacher also said that he is like this His voice is not bad, but if he wants to become a professional singer, he needs to put in several times more effort than others.

To put it bluntly, the voice is not recognizable.

However, after eating the five natural fruits, Zhou Xing obviously felt that his vocal cords seemed to have undergone subtle changes, his vocal range seemed to be wider, and even his voice became slightly magnetic.

"These [-] points are not in vain!" Zhou Xing was very satisfied with this change.

"Hey, do you feel that Xingzi is a little different today?" The director frowned slightly in front of the monitor, but he couldn't tell why it was different.

"Different?" The staff next to him were at a loss, and there was no difference. If the acting was not good, the director would definitely yell "Ka".

This problem troubled the director all morning. It wasn't until the lunch box was delivered at noon, and the moment he took off the headset, he slapped his thigh: "This kid's voice seems to have more flavor."

Regarding this, Zhou Xing pretended to be at a loss, expressing that he didn't know anything about it, and the rest of the people didn't wear earphones to listen to the lines every day like the director, so naturally they didn't pay attention to these details, which made the director think that he was under too much pressure recently , there was an auditory hallucination.

After almost a week, Brother Le waited for the return of the leading actors, and Zhou Xing finally took a break.

Along with the lead actor is a new face, who is also a beautiful woman, Zhuang Ying, playing the role of Zhu Ji, Qin Shihuang's mother.

"Ka, please, can you stop stumbling when you read your lines? Are you here to act or to make trouble?" The director was furious.

Zhuang Ying is a Chinese born in Singapore. She couldn't speak Cantonese at all before, but she just learned a little bit before taking on this drama. You must know that Cantonese is a very chatty language. If you don't speak it smoothly, the pronunciation will look weird , especially for beginners, the more you pay attention to the pronunciation, the more strange it will be.

When the director got angry, the people around were naturally silent, and Zhuang Ying was almost scolded and cried, but she was also strong. After finishing work, she was at the entrance of the hotel and dragged the staff to teach her to read the dialogue. Can speak Cantonese, difficult to communicate.

The director saw that his attitude had also eased up, and then he found Zhou Xing: "This girl is not hopeless, you can take her with you when you have time, as it happens, you and her both speak Mandarin."

Zhou Xing didn't really want to take on the job, it was thankless, and Cantonese was not so easy to learn.

However, with a word from the director, he immediately told him to obey obediently: "Hey, don't forget, there will be an emotional scene with her later, wouldn't it be good to get in touch with her in advance?"

Indeed, Lian Jin, played by Zhou Xing, will change his name to Lai Ai in later episodes, develop a lover relationship with Zhu Ji, played by Zhuang Ying, and finally have a child.

"Hey, look at your sad face, she is a beautiful woman anyway, it's too late to be happy with someone else." Seeing Zhou Xing's unhappy look, the director couldn't help teasing.

Zhou Xing also joked: "Beauty is indeed a beauty, but a pretty girl like me, what if she falls in love with me? I am four years older."

"Hey, you said you are fat and you are still panting, get out of here and stop waving in front of my eyes." The director said angrily.

Zhou Xing once suspected that he was jealous of his appearance.

"Okay, don't stand around stupidly, let me teach you."

As the sky was getting dark, Zhou Xing said to Zhuang Ying who was still hovering at the entrance of the hotel.

Upon hearing that Zhou Xing spoke Mandarin, Zhuang Ying immediately raised her head in surprise: "You can speak Mandarin?"

"Yes, I'm from the Mainland."

However, when he entered the hotel lobby, Zhou Xing hesitated, where should he teach?There are so many people coming and going in the hotel lobby, obviously there is no way to calm down, come to the room?Will lonely men and widows be gossiped?
"Why don't you go to my room?" Zhuang Ying was generous.

Zhuang Ying's room was filled with a vague fragrance, not a perfume smell, but similar to a woman's unique hormonal smell. This kind of fragrance is undoubtedly suitable for Zhou Xing who spends all day with those rough men who are martial arts. Has a strong allure.

"Tea or coffee?" Zhuang Ying looked at the shy man in front of her with a smile.

Zhou Xing cleared his throat, he was indeed thirsty: "Plain water is fine."

Then Zhuang Ying served two cups of coffee.
"Teacher, the Cantonese pronunciation is so strange, how do you make it so standard?" Zhuang Ying blinked while holding the coffee.

Zhou Xing cleared his throat and said sternly, "Actually, the pronunciation of Cantonese is not about articulation, but more about colloquialism. The most important thing is to speak more. If you speak more, your natural pronunciation will be smooth."

"Well, let me teach you from one to ten first."

"Yeah, Yishan Temple is so messed up."

Zhuang Ying was stunned, so Zhou Xing had to slow down and repeat, and Zhuang Ying began to stumble along.

"Yes, don't be afraid. It's normal to have wrong pronunciation. You need to wrap your tongue around the Cantonese you know. You'll get better with more practice."

Zhuang Ying chuckled for a while. This man, who was the same age as her younger brother, was quite good at teaching people. He was not as impatient as other staff at all.

For a long time after that, Zhuang Ying would go to Zhou Xing's side whenever she had time, causing many people to misunderstand that they were dating.

In this regard, both of them smiled and did not explain, and this kind of thing became darker and darker.

Of course, Zhou Xing is not without gains. Zhuang Ying is a model. In her spare time, she will also teach Zhou Xing how to face the paparazzi camera, how to walk and sit with the demeanor of a big bowl of stars, which is not easy to learn of.

At the beginning of the [-]th century, it was normal for Xiangjiang stars to be worth dozens of times more than mainland stars. Why?Not only because of the works, but the most important thing is that they can package and operate. Take the typhoon on the stage as an example, there is indeed a gap between mainland stars who have not received professional training.

And Xiangjiang star has put a lot of effort into training in this area. They have been playing commercially for so many years, so they naturally have something unique.

"Don't smile so fake, be more sincere, yes, if the curvature is wider, your teeth are very white, so you won't be afraid to show them."

Zhuang Ying seems to have a strong interest in teaching Zhou Xing. In her words, Zhou Xing should also experience the "joy" of being a student

Zhou Xing extremely suspected that she was doing it to retaliate against his "cynicism" in teaching.

However, during this period of time, both of them have made great progress. Although Zhuang Ying's Cantonese lines are still a little inaccurate, it finally didn't make the director collapse so much.

And Zhou Xing also began to have a star "that taste" in his gestures.
