With Luo Zihang joining the cast, the filming of "Sword of Heaven" has officially begun.

As I said before, this drama mainly tells the story of three senior brothers, so in addition to the protagonist Luo Zihang who plays the younger junior brother, his two senior brothers are also the protagonists. In terms of roles, there are not too many.

difference.

Compared to Luo Zihang, who only has a small reputation for his acting skills but does not have many honors, the other two leading actors are both capable actors who have won Best Actors, especially Fang Rufei, who plays the second senior brother. He has three domestic Best Actors and one international one.

A super capable actor who has won the best award at the film festival.

As for Peng Shu, who plays the role of the senior brother, although he has only won two Best Actors, one domestic and one foreign, his acting skills are actually better than Fang Rufei's. However, due to various factors, his honor is not as good as Fang Rufei's.

The heroine Lin Linglin is a very popular actress in recent years, and she is also one of the highest-paid actresses in China. It is said that in order to join "Sword of Heaven" this time, she specifically asked for a friendship price.

Well, she didn't even come here for Luo Zihang, but for Director Shen Qi, because her current salary has basically come to an end, and now is the time when she wants honor.

Although she had won some awards such as Most Popular Actress before, she didn't get any awards that recognized her acting skills. At most, she could only get a nomination and then run with her.

In addition, among the other main supporting actors, there are also actors and actresses, and at least all of them have won Best Supporting Actor/Actress.

It can only be said that for actors who want to win awards or have artistic pursuits, literary film directors like Shen Qi are really attractive.

However, contrary to his strength and honors, in terms of remuneration, it is Luo Zihang who is the highest paid.

Although Fang Rufei has won four Best Actors, his commercial performance is only average, so although he also gets a share of the box office, the proportion is much smaller than Luo Zihang.

The most powerful Peng Shu didn't even get a share of the box office.

Because this person is a professional in art films, only senior movie fans and audiences who love art films know him better, but for most ordinary viewers, many people don't even know him at all.

It's not that Peng Shu didn't want to make commercial films, but that all the commercial films he made were rejected. As a result, no one asked him to make commercial films at all. He could only make a living in the field of literary and artistic films, and his salary was naturally not high.

Not to mention Lin Linglin, she joined with a reduced salary.

Even though the pay was not as good as Luo Zihang's, Fang Rufei, Peng Shu and several other actors did not show any dissatisfaction or contempt. This has nothing to do with whether Luo Zihang is a koi or not, because this is the norm in the entertainment industry. They have already

I have become accustomed to this unfair ecology.

As an ordinary spectator in his previous life, Luo Zihang complained many times about the abnormal ecology of the entertainment industry. However, after truly entering the entertainment industry and gaining a better understanding of it, his views have changed slightly...

Because from an investment perspective, this ecology is actually not a deformity. After all, overall, traffic stars have a higher rate of return, and making money is more stable and easier. As for the audience’s feelings... that is only as important as our making money.

?

Of course, this is only from an investment perspective, and it is also a short-term investment perspective.

From a long-term development point of view, this kind of ecology is actually damaging the reputation and future of the industry, and sooner or later there will be a backlash.

In fact, before Luo Zihang crossed over, there were already signs of this. The trick of cutting leeks through traffic was not as effective as it was earlier, but the backlash was not yet strong enough to shake capital.

In this world, the environment is slightly better than in the previous life, but the improvement is very limited. On the contrary, it is at the most prosperous stage of traffic.

Luo Zihang is not against traffic stars. When Hong Kong movies were popular, there was no shortage of traffic among those Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, but they had some strength and no problem with their attitude. Unlike today's traffic, which has been completely controlled by companies and companies.

Fans spoil her like a giant baby.

It's a pity that even though Luo Zihang is now considered a half-capitalist, he still doesn't have the ability to change the ecology of the entertainment industry... Well, with his salty personality, he has no interest in changing it. At most, he can just do his own thing well.

Although he can't reach the level of those crazy actors he heard about in his previous life, Luo Zihang can still do it as long as he takes acting seriously.

Alas... I am a thousand-year-old salty fish, but I still have a conscience that is rare among these traffic stars. Where can TN explain this?

Luo Zihang sighed in his heart, and then planned to take advantage of his current enthusiasm to read the script carefully...

As a result, Shen Qi told him that the script had not been written yet.

"Ha?!" Luo Zihang looked confused.

"Hahaha, this is how Director Shen shoots movies." Peng Shu, a professional in literary and artistic films, has collaborated with Director Shen Qi the most. After seeing Luo Zihang's "I am not Sister Li" expression, he took the initiative to help explain.

: "He likes to change the shooting plan at any time according to the status of the actors, so the script is not necessary for Director Shen."

"Don't worry," Peng Shu patted Luo Zihang on the back after explaining, "the plot is all in Director Shen's head."

I'm relieved...

Luo Zihang complained in his heart.

The worst case scenario has arisen. Shen Qi, this cheater, is really the king of sunglasses in the parallel world!

You must know that even Luo Zihang, a layman who is not interested in literary films at all, had heard of the famous King of Sunglasses in his previous life.

However, at this point, it was too late for him to quit, so he could only bite the bullet and continue shooting.

However, what Luo Zihang didn't expect was that the first day of filming was not as painful as he imagined. Although he didn't understand what the plot was filming today, putting this aside, in fact, it was not as painful as usual filming.

Big difference.

He also followed the director's instructions, performed different emotional movements, and said some lines that he thought of. At most, the number of retakes was a little more. These were within Luo Zihang's expectations, and the number of NGs was even higher than his.

The estimate is even less...

It doesn't seem to be as scary as imagined.

After finishing the first day of shooting, Luo Zihang was muttering secretly in his heart, but he was not completely relaxed.

God knows if Shen Qi, a cheater, didn't give them enough strength just because they had just started filming?

During the subsequent filming process, Luo Zihang gradually returned to his normal state of mind from being uneasy at the beginning, and even had a little disdain...

No, that's it?

Indeed, in the subsequent filming, Director Shen Qi also gradually increased the intensity for them. Whether it was the number of repeated shots or the filming method of clouds and mountains, it was completely different from the first day.

But Luo Zihang adapted quickly. On the contrary, Fang Rufei and Peng Shu, powerful actors who had worked with Shen Qi many times, were tortured to death. They and several other important characters, including the heroine, had their mental states

Continuous deterioration visible to the naked eye.

The reason is probably because of Luo Zihang... he has no artistic pursuits.

The reason why Fang Rufei and Peng Shu felt tortured was because every time the director asked for a reshoot, they would dwell on what they did wrong, and then strive to perform better next time.

But for Luo Zihang, he already knew that Shen Qi was a "King of Sunglasses" type character, so he didn't bother to worry about why this spiritual BT wanted to NG him. Anyway, he was just repeating his previous performance, at most.

Add some variety to your expressions and movements.

Anyway, Shen Qi would only say, "It doesn't feel right, try another way." He couldn't put forward any specific performance requirements at all.

To put it bluntly, he was just like Party A who asked Party B to constantly modify the plan in his previous life. He wanted Luo Zihang to perform the "colorful black" he imagined in his heart.

As a veteran in the workplace, Luo Zihang is very experienced in dealing with this kind of "ancestors of Party A", and it is different from the situation in ordinary workplaces. If there is no results here, the person who is really worried will not be Luo Zihang, but Luo Zihang.

He is the investor behind Shen Qi.

To be honest, Shen Qi is the Party B, and Luo Zihang is at most an outsourcing team, so he has no pressure at all.

As for the words of Director Shen Qi's PUA actors, Luo Zihang went in one ear and out the other.

It's so funny, the level of PUA at this level is far worse than that of his boss in his previous life.

He didn't deliberately slack off or anything, and he performed the performance seriously every time. It's just that you, the director, can't explain why, so you can't blame me for not performing what you want, right?

As a result, Luo Zihang, who used this "do his best" filming method, received better feedback from the director than the other two leading actors and heroines...

After all, although Luo Zihang didn't take Director Shen Qi seriously in his heart, his attitude on the surface was very sincere, and he was also very serious when filming. He did whatever the director told him to do without complaining at all.

, and even managed to maintain an energetic appearance, unlike the other protagonists and important supporting characters, who were as listless as if they had been locked up in a dark room for three days.

Of course, Luo Zihang felt that there was more or less the threat of "luck backlash", which prevented Director Shen Qi from scolding him so unscrupulously when facing him.

That is to say, sometimes he is too anxious and yells a few words, but Luo Zihang doesn't take it to heart at all, admits his mistake honestly, and then acts how to act.

Later, Director Shen Qi may have been helpless by Luo Zihang's "rogue" approach, and he actually began to patiently tell him about the play, instead of just saying "it doesn't feel right, try again" like before.

To put it simply, Shen Qi, a cheater, was turned against PUA by Luo Zihang with his workplace tactics of "having a good attitude and never repenting".

It’s just that this cheater probably hasn’t told a play to anyone for a long time, or maybe even never told a play before. As a result, he still doesn’t have any specific descriptions when he talks about a play. He just asks Luo Zihang to find a certain feeling. Sometimes he

I can’t even explain what it feels like…

Even so, Luo Zihang at least had a general direction, and his work efficiency was slightly improved.

Originally, since Luo Zihang had signs of success, it stands to reason that Shen Qi should apply this model to other actors as well, but as a result, this scam was not.

For example, Lin Linglin, who also does not have any heavyweight awards and honors, but has much more seniority than Luo Zihang, is in a much worse situation than Luo Zihang. In addition to all kinds of unreasonable comebacks, she also has troubles from time to time.

After being scolded by Shen Qi, Luo Zihang cried three times just when he saw it.

Even though I had this time to curse, I could tell her the story several times.

And Fang Rufei, who has the title of Best Actor, is not much better. Director Shen Qi sneers at him every day, thinking that his title of Best Actor is not worthy of his name. Later, he was criticized so much that he became less confident in his acting skills. After every performance,

You have to weakly ask the director how your performance is, and then get sprayed with blood...

Luo Zihang has never seen someone take the initiative to find someone to PUA him.

This also strengthened his working style of "doing his best". This kind of spirit cannot be tolerated.

It took about two weeks of filming, and they only shot about five scenes.

The reason why I say "probably" is because God knows that one day Director Shen Qi will have a whim and scrap the five shots that he shot and reshoot them. Besides, in addition to the five shots that were shot, they still have bits and pieces in between.

I took some random shots of other content, but I was not very satisfied with Shen Qi's appearance.
