I'm a serious president [entertainment circle]

Chapter 17 The First Step of the Fall

Li Zhizhi is filming for the first time, so the lines are done, but there are still many things he doesn't understand on the practical technical level, so the director personally told him how to deal with the camera and camera positions, etc., and the director was still afraid to use I couldn't explain clearly, so I personally went to the battle to show Li Zhizhi how to perform later, and asked Li Zhizhi to imitate his demeanor, movements and stance.

The director said: "Mr. Li, because you are not a professional actor, you can't capture the shots as well as a professional actor, so I specially adjusted the camera position. When you are talking and walking around, I will mainly shoot Ono, and then Shoot you alone, and mostly when you're sitting or standing."

"Okay." Li Zhizhi nodded, "Let's try it first." He suddenly discovered that although the director had a terrible private life, he was still very careful when filming.

The director also knew that he just talked and didn't practice fake moves, so he signaled to the assistant director, and the assistant director immediately started shouting with a loudspeaker, asking everyone to take their positions.

The scene was originally about Shang Xingye and the rival actors visiting the vineyards and wine cellars, and then talking about business while walking.

But because Li Zhizhi is not a professional actor, the director shortened the visit process and took a few shots, and reduced the places where Li Zhizhi needs to say lines in the moving shots. When the camera moves with the actors, the lines are mainly It was handed over to Shang Xingye.

A scene of more than ten minutes is simple to say, but it is very complicated to shoot.

During the shooting, Li Zhizhi would accidentally walk out of the camera, or subconsciously glance at the camera, and at this time a reshoot was needed.

Leaving aside these unavoidable professional factors, Li Zhizhi's line skills are pretty good, even better than Shang Xingye and the director's expectations, full of emotions, accurate in speech, and clear in articulation.

Furthermore, Li Zhizhi's image and temperament are very good, especially photogenic.

Of course, these are the feelings of Shang Xingye and the director who is in charge of the film with him. Li Zhizhi, who is still in the play, doesn't know. He only knows that when he is acting with Shang Xingye, Shang Xingye has really become another one person.

Now he is not the Shang Xingye who always jokes with him, but the leading actor in the play.

Shang Xingye in the play is in a period of desperation at this time, so when he meets the commercial representative of a foreign beverage company "Li Zhizhi", although his clothes are neat, his face is unavoidably haggard. Smile, but this kind of smile is a polite smile, with a hint of deepness and worry, completely different from his usual bright smile.

Because of Shang Xingye's seriousness, Li Zhizhi couldn't help being brought into the atmosphere of the play by him. Li Zhizhi was not talking to Shang Xingye, but really came to buy the actor's winery. If it was a business cooperation, then Li Zhizhi He didn't talk about any sympathy, and showed his working state.

The international beverage company he represented first tried to persuade the male protagonist "Shang Xingye" softly, and then acted both softly and hard. After being rejected by the male protagonist "Shang Xingye", he showed a domineering aura and put pressure on him again.

The leading actor "Shang Xingye" was not timid, and the politeness on his face immediately turned into alienation and indifference.

Li Zhizhi saw the light of hope in his eyes dissipate little by little, then slowly gather again, and finally the light turned into perseverance and determination.

The protagonist "Shang Xingye"'s eyes are like a sharp knife, and he flies straight to Li Zhizhi's business representative "Li Zhizhi": "Impossible, as long as I, Luo Junxian, are here, this winery will never, ever, ever be impossible." Sell!"

Li Zhizhi was shocked by the aura of the leading actor "Shang Xingye", with a dazed expression on his face. This was not his performance, but his subconscious expression.

"Kah, very good, Xiao Ye's performance just now was very good, and Mr. Li's expression at the end was also very good." The director praised, "Mr. Do you need to make up any shots?"

Li Zhizhi said to the director: "Yes, yes."

When he looked back, Shang Xingye suddenly lowered his waist, leaned to his chin, and looked up at him.

He saw Shang Xingye's stern eyebrows slowly curved into a crescent shape, and the corners of his stern lips gradually opened, revealing a big dog-like smile, brilliant with a bit of complacency.

Shang Xingye praised with a look of praise: "Did I act well? Did you get bluffed by me at the last moment just now?"

Li Zhizhi looked at him and didn't speak for a long time.

Seeing that he was silent, Shang Xingye thumped in his heart: "What's wrong? Isn't it good?"

"No, it's very good, it's beyond my expectation." Li Zhizhi said slowly, "When I watched you act before, I felt that you were like two people inside and outside the play, but now acting with you, this feeling is even deeper. "

Shang Xingye smiled happily: "Actually, I have referenced you for this role."

Li Zhizhi: "Where?"

"However, you probably won't be able to see the scenes filmed in the past two days. You will be able to see the film when it is broadcast."

"Okay." Li Zhizhi's curiosity was hooked to the highest point, "I'm looking forward to it."

Li Zhizhi asked again: "What about me? How was the performance just now?"

Shang Xingye commented sincerely: "No merit, no fault."

Ji Shi, who had just returned from blowing the wind at Qiu Shuya's place, wanted to pry Shang Xingye's head open to take a look. How could anyone say that about the money master? Wouldn't it be a boast?

He rushed forward in two steps in three steps and interjected: "I think Mr. Li's performance is really good!!"

"Mr. Li, this is the first time for you to be on camera, and you have performed so perfectly. This is a talent! Moreover, your face and temperament are simply born for the camera."

"It's still because you didn't enter the entertainment industry. If you entered the entertainment industry, no one else would have anything to eat!"

"..." Li Zhizhi stared at Ji Shi for a long time, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Ji Shi was puzzled, what was wrong with him?

Shang Xingye said: "The way you blow rainbow fart just now looks like a flattering little eunuch."

Ji Shi: "..."

Li Zhizhi suppressed his smile and asked Shang Xingye, "Why is there no merit or fault?"

Shang Xingye said to Li Zhizhi again: "Instead of saying that you are acting, it is better to say that you are acting in your true colors."

What Shang Xingye said, in fact, Li Zhizhi did not perform on purpose, he just brought out the state of negotiating with people in the business field, so he said with satisfaction: "It is indeed a true performance, a profiteer's true color."

Shang Xingye couldn't laugh or cry: "How can anyone say that about himself?"

Li Zhizhi said with an honest expression: "The truth."

At this moment, the director came over to call for someone again. After watching the replay just now, he found that he needed to make up a few more shots of Li Zhizhi alone.

Shang Xingye watched Li Zhizhi's back as he left, and said, "He's not the kind of person who likes to listen to fake big empty rainbow farts."

Ji Shi snorted, and said, "Then I flattered my ass?"

Shang Xingye: "That's not true. If you slap a horse's butt, the horse will be angry, but if you pat the wrong one on Li Zhizhi, he won't be angry. At most, he thinks you are funny."

Ji Shi: "..."

Shang Xingye: "What did sister Qiu say?"

Ji Shi: "Sister Qiu agreed, just as you guessed, Sister Qiu really wants to suppress the director's style."

"That's fine." Shang Xingye nodded.

At this time, the staff of the winery sent Shang Xingye a box.

Ji Shi asked curiously, "What is this?"

Shang Xingye had a boyish smile on his face: "A final gift for Zhizhi."

At this time, there was applause from Li Zhizhi.

"It seems that Zhizhi's filming is over." Shang Xingye handed the gift to Ji Shi, "Help me get it and give it to him later, let's go over to have a good time first."

I saw that Li Zhizhi was surrounded by everyone. The actors present today were very polite, congratulating and shaking hands with him.

The director and Qiu Shuya each pushed a cake trolley, and the other walked towards him holding a bouquet of flowers. When Li Zhizhi agreed to make a cameo just now, they had already arranged for someone to prepare presents.

"Mr. Li, congratulations on the finale." Qiu Shuya gave the bouquet to Li Zhizhi, "This filming went smoothly, and I would like to thank Mr. Li for his help in the cameo."

Surrounded by the crowd, Li Zhizhi still looked calm, obviously someone who is used to big scenes: "Thank you director and Sister Qiu for the cake and flowers."

Li Zhizhi said again: "Zheng Lin, share the cake with everyone."

Ordinary people can't enjoy the wrapping gift from the director and producer for a ten-minute movie, but Li Zhizhi is different.

When Shang Xingye arrived, Zheng Lin was about to cut the cake.

Shang Xingye wasn't too polite: "I want to know about the first piece of wrapping cake."

When Ji Shi saw that he was going to grab the cake, he felt a groan in his heart. Do you think you are still a child, and you insist on grabbing the first piece of cake.

Seeing Shang Xingye coming, Li Zhizhi took a piece of cake and handed it to Shang Xingye: "Here."

Shang Xingye looked at Shang Xingye with a smile on his face, and said, "I thought you were going to feed me."

"..." Li Zhizhi had just halfway extended his hand to hand the cake, and when he heard Shang Xingye's shameless words, he didn't know whether to take it back or continue to hand it.

Just when Li Zhizhi's brain froze, Shang Xingye took the opportunity to take the cake in his hand, and gave Li Zhizhi the box he had prepared.

"I also have a finale gift for you."

Li Zhizhi had seen this kind of beautifully packaged wooden box, which was used by Qixu Winery as a wine gift box. He thought it contained wine, but it contained more than a dozen small glass bottles.

"I was in a hurry, and I didn't have time to do anything else, so I asked the workers in the manor to do it for me." Shang Xingye sent a box of more than a dozen bottles of soil in different shades.

Li Zhizhi's eyes lit up: "These soil... thank you, I like it very much."

He took a closer look and found a label on the glass bottle, which said the grapes that had been planted in this soil for several years.

Although the soil composition in the same area is similar, with the different years and types of plants planted in the soil, the fertilization of workers and other factors, the trace elements of the soil will also change, and the changes in the soil will in turn affect the growth of plants. Li Zhizhi needed to study when he was studying.

"You..." Li Zhizhi didn't expect Shang Xingye to be so meticulous, and it would be a lie in his heart to say that he was not moved.

Shang Xingye smiled and said, "I listen attentively to what you say."

Li Zhizhi paused with his fingers touching the glass bottle.

"Brother Hoshino." A crew member hurried over, "Brother Hoshino, the next scene is about to begin."

"Okay." Shang Xingye nodded to the crew, and then asked Li Zhizhi, "Are you leaving later?"

"Yeah." Li Zhizhi said, "I'm going to the airport."

Shang Xingye said regretfully: "I still have a show, so I can't see you off."

Li Zhizhi: "It's okay, you can be busy."

Shang Xingye reluctantly said: "Then see you next time."

A trace of reluctance rose in Li Zhizhi's heart: "See you next time."

When Shang Xingye was about to return to the set, Li Zhizhi suddenly stopped him: "Wait."

Shang Xingye: "What's wrong?"

"That cake..." Li Zhizhi glanced hesitantly.

"Oh this, although the cake has high calories, but I will finish your finished cake."

"No." Li Zhizhi touched his nose, thinking that Shang Xingye had done so much for him, and he should fulfill Shang Xingye's little wish, so he took off the cake fork, scooped a small spoonful of cake, Feed it to Shang Xingye.

"You're so shy." Shang Xingye teased, "I thought you were going to feed me with your mouth."

"..." Li Zhizhi withdrew his hand from Shang Xingye's mouth, the cake went straight into his stomach, and then ruthlessly inserted the cake fork back on the cake, "It's delicious, you can eat the rest Bar."

Shang Xingye thought, isn't this an indirect kiss?But he didn't say it, he was afraid that if he said it, Li Zhizhi would snatch his cake.

So he smiled and said, "Okay, I'll eat the rest."

Zheng Lin and Ji Shi next to each other showed expressions of eating lemons together, the two of them were really sour.

After Li Zhizhi and Zheng Lin left, Ji Shi asked, "How do you know that Li always likes soil?"

"When I followed him before, he kept soil samples collected from all over the world in his office, and during the chat, he mentioned the importance of soil for crop growth several times, and I remembered it."

"But you not only gave him the soil, but also did it so meticulously." Ji Shi hesitated: "You don't...you really take Mr. Li to heart, don't you?"

Shang Xingye was startled when he heard this, and couldn't help but slow down eating the cake.

"Although the time I have known you is not long, it is not short. I know you very well. You say it nicely. You are a salted fish and a Buddhist. You don't like to compete with others. But to put it bluntly, you are actually the only one who respects me. Disdain to fight."

"Also, you are very polite and courteous to those you work with, and you are also kind to those around you, but you are really kind to Mr. Li..."

Shang Xingye said indifferently, "Really?"

Ji Shi patted him: "Don't play around with me! I'm telling you seriously, do you really like him?"

Shang Xingye asked back, "Isn't he worthy of liking?"

Ji Shi was stunned for a moment, he thought carefully about Li Zhizhi's behavior, and said, "It seems to be worth it."

"However..." Ji Shi changed his mind, "You like what you like, but don't get too involved. Although he is very different from other sponsors, I think he should be similar in essence. People like them have a big family and a big business. , Holding people is like playing with cars and watches, the idea is to have fun and enjoyment, and they will not have true feelings for small artists, or they will not have true feelings for anyone.”

"I've seen too many things like this in the circle." Ji Shidao, "Que Jinsi, you know that?"

Shang Xingye: "I know, what's wrong?"

"When she debuted, she was praised by big companies with big productions and resources. When she debuted, she was treated like a first-line artist. She never suffered in the circle. After a few years, the one who praised her got tired of it and changed to a newcomer. I I heard people say that she always thought that she was in a relationship with the person who supported her, but she later realized that in the eyes of that person, she was just a canary. When you are, you are nothing."

"Later she fluttered for a long time, until she became famous again because of "The Concubine's Biography"."

"She filmed "The Concubine" and was supposed to play the role of Concubine Li, but her new lover fell in love with this role. She didn't care about affection at all, and directly helped Xinhuan get the role, but it was a coincidence. , but Jinsi took the role of another villain concubine, and she poured all her anger towards the scumbag into this role, and because of her outstanding performance, she overshadowed Concubine Li and other concubines in the limelight."

"Look, what have you realized?"

Shang Xingye said solemnly: "As long as you act well, even villains can be popular, and the foundation of an actor's life is acting."

Ji Shi: "???" Brother, is this the point? !

Seeing that Ji Shi was choked by him and had nothing to say, Shang Xingye smiled and patted Ji Shi's shoulder, comforting him, "I know it well, don't worry."

"Well, it's good that you know the numbers." Ji Shi murmured, "But if you are really hurt a little bit, and your acting skills improve and you succeed in a role, it doesn't seem to be a problem."

Shang Xingye didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You are my manager, can't you expect me to be nice to you?"

"Just because I'm your manager, if you can be popular and make money, I'll be fine!" Ji Shi went around and continued to mutter, "I have no problem with you being nice to Mr. Li, but don't get too involved. , lest you can’t get out, remember.”

Shang Xingye comforted Ji Shi: "Okay, mother Ji, mother-in-law Ji, you have repeated it many times."

In fact, he listened to Ji Shi's words, but he also knew that Li Zhizhi was not that kind of person. If Li Zhizhi could achieve that level of ruthlessness...it would be interesting?

-

"Ah Choo." Li Zhizhi sneezed.

"Mr. Li, is there something wrong with you?"

Li Zhizhi waved his hand: "It's nothing serious."

Li Zhizhi was about to leave by car when he ran into Qiu Shuya. The girl next to Qiu Shuya was also familiar, as if she was in the director's room that night.

Qiu Shuya is the producer of this drama, so she had a relationship with Li Zhizhi when she was attracting investment. When Li Zhizhi saw her, she also saw Li Zhizhi.

Qiu Shuya took the initiative to come over to say hello: "Mr. Li is going back?"

Li Zhizhi glanced at the girl who was leaving by car: "Yes."

Qiu Shuya took the initiative and said: "Master Qi Xu's winery is a bit remote, it is difficult to get a taxi, I asked someone to take the girl back."

In addition to his own major, Li Zhizhi's mind is about the company's affairs, so it is really difficult to interpret Qiu Shuya's intentions and the relationship between her and the director with his limited thinking.

Qiu Shuya said to herself: "Little girl, she is easily confused and easily deceived, and she doesn't know the relationship between the director and me. I can give her a chance, but next time, I won't be polite."

Qiu Shuya looked at the back of the girl getting into the car, and suddenly said with emotion: "Men, they all like young and beautiful, unlike me who is already old."

Li Zhizhi: "Sister Qiu, you are mature and elegant, and have strong working ability, how can you be so old?"

"Hahaha." Qiu Shuya said with a smile: "I like to hear what Mr. Li said. Others may say it for the occasion, but what you said is the truth."

"Boss Li has made jokes these two days, but don't worry, I will sit in charge later and won't let anything affect the normal work of the crew."

When Li Zhizhi heard this sentence, he understood that it was fake for Qiu Shuya to send that girl, and it was true that she waited for him specially. What she said just now looked like a big belly, but she was actually explaining it to him.

Qiu Shuya was obviously worried that what happened to the crew in the past two days would shake the confidence of Li Zhizhi, an investor.

Because no investor is willing to see the director and producer in the project team they invest in disagree, no matter what the actual situation is, at least the superficial skills must be in place.

Li Zhizhi: "With Sister Qiu here, I can rest assured."

"Xiao Ye is your man. I think he has a bright future, and I will take good care of him. I won't let anyone touch his lines again."

Li Zhizhi asked suspiciously, "Which lines?"

Seeing this, Qiu Shuya immediately understood that Li Zhizhi didn't know about it, so it seemed that Shang Xingye hadn't complained, which made her look at Shang Xingye with admiration again, and she immediately smoothed things over and said, "There will always be slight discrepancies during the filming of the script. Adjustment."

Li Zhizhi said clearly: "It's okay. As long as it's for the good of the show, I believe Hoshino will accept it. I'm also a layman in TV dramas, so I won't play around with others. Sister Qiu will keep an eye on the rest. There is an opportunity for cooperation."

Li Zhizhi reached out to shake Qiu Shuya's hand.

"I hope too." Qiu Shuya stretched out her hand, and her words were probably the most true and true in the few minutes of the conversation.

Li Zhizhi is the best-spoken and most polite investor she has ever seen. You must know that many investors who invest tens of millions are like the king of heaven. This producer is just a nanny who cleans up the mess, and someone like Li Zhizhi who doesn't act like a demon but also cooperates is an angel!

If all the investors in the world were half as good as Li Zhizhi, it would be heaven!

Of course, Qiu Shuya also knew that she was dreaming...

After Li Zhizhi said goodbye to Qiu Shuya, he got in the car to the airport.

Li Zhizhi looked at the glass bottle containing the soil in the box, and said, "Help me find out when Shang Xingye is finished."

"Okay." Zheng Lin carefully recorded in the workbook.

Li Zhizhi thought for a while, and then said: "Find out all the dramas that Shang Xingye acted in before, I want to see them."

"Okay." Zheng Lin remained calm on the surface, but he was surprised in his heart. You must know that Li Zhizhi seldom watched TV dramas before, but now he changed his principles for Shang Xingye. One step!
