Open space used for training.
As the actor Yang Guo, Zhang Yuan has been in the limelight recently.
He is a frequent headliner in newspapers.
These days, the previous enthusiasm for beating people on the set has just subsided a little. As soon as the press conference of "A World Without Thieves" started yesterday, he made a lot of news again.
In addition, he arrived late yesterday, and he had a hazy feeling as if he was half-covering his face with his pipa.
So there are a lot of crew members who are interested in him.
A lot of people came to see him and Zhao Hongfei sparring.
Zhao Hongfei attacked dozens of times in a row. Seeing Zhang Yuan frequently retreating to defend, he remembered that he was like this when he and Liu Qianqian fought yesterday.
“Is this person’s spirit so weak?”
“I dare not attack, I only dare to defend.”
"Then you lose if you keep guarding."
Zhao Hongfei changed his moves and attacked from the top, middle and bottom, but Zhang Yuan frequently dodged them.
The other party only dodged but did not attack, which made him a little annoyed, and a trace of anxiety appeared on his originally cold and arrogant face.
At this time, the martial arts school coach who was organizing Zhang Yuan's sparring exercise had already noticed that something was wrong.
“This kid seems to be dodging in a panic, but why can’t he even breathe?”
Just when the coach was confused and Zhao Hongfei was attacking fiercely, a rough male voice drifted from a distance and reached everyone's ears.
“Zhang Yuan!”
It was him who shouted.
When Zhang Yuan heard the sound, he turned his head habitually. Isn’t that what everyone does?
As soon as he turned his head, Zhao Hongfei, who was already a little unhappy because of his failure to retreat defensively, saw an opportunity.
"Are you distracted during sparring?"
Zhao Hongfei raised his eyebrows, raised his sword and stabbed Zhang Yuan in the throat.
Of course, he didn't take advantage of others' danger and wanted to hurt Zhang Yuan.
Not only are he and Zhang Yuan not ugly, they also have a secret friendship.
What he wanted to do was to lock his throat with one move, put the sword in front of Zhang Yuan's neck, then stop it steadily, and said at the same time.
"Brother Zhang is careless."
"I see that you have amazing bones and are very talented in martial arts. How about we practice together."
"I am not talented but have some experience. I am willing to work with Zhang Let’s share it, brother.”
If you pick up a role that others don’t want, the friendship will be restored.
You can also make friends with this popular "niche", killing two birds with one stone.
These people who usually talk less are like this.
Don’t be silent, there are all kinds of dramas going on in your mind all the time.
But this kind of intracranial drama often fails.
The reason why Zhang Yuan kept retreating and defending instead of attacking was not because he was playing tricks on his opponent or deliberately pretending to be weak.
In this crew, he has no reason to do this.
It's because he forced himself to adapt to a completely different force-generating technique and body method.
This is why his moves look so soft and have little strength.
This is all a consideration for character creation, and it is also the reason why he rushed to participate in the training camp.
He himself is very aware of Zhao Hongfei's strength.
With these dozens of moves, I have basically figured out the opponent.
Similar to but different from Liu Qianqian, their force-generating techniques are not derived from authentic Chinese martial arts.
The former stems from dance skills, while the latter stems from opera skills.
Zhao Hongfei’s force-generating technique is a bit like the “Drip of Water Guanyin” teacher Yuan Quan.
After all, Teacher Yuan Quan has a good background in Hua Shan, and he must also be able to fight and sword.
So after figuring out the opponent's general strength, he relaxed his vigilance and turned away when someone yelled at him. This should not happen in sparring.
Because subconsciously, he didn't regard the other party as an opponent at all.
There were many people watching around him. He was squinting through the crowd to see who was calling him, and when he instinctively felt his neck tightening!
The goose bumps are centered on the Adam's apple and quickly spread to the limbs.
This is the instinctive reaction that long-term martial arts practitioners will have when being attacked.
It's not a sixth sense, but the slight sound of wind, the blurry peripheral vision, and even the smell of murderous aura through the nose.
The so-called murderous aura is a certain hormone secreted by the body when a creature attacks. Many animals can feel it, and trained humans can also vaguely detect it.
Zhang Yuan has gathered so many martial arts basics, all of which he has gathered from masters from all walks of life, even top masters. Naturally, he is far more vigilant than ordinary martial arts practitioners.
At this moment, less than a fifth of a second, his body started to move instinctively.
The pupils contracted, the muscles tightened, and the legs suddenly exerted force.
The force rose from the ground and reached his waist. His body suddenly leaned back, and in an instant he resisted the long sword swung by the opponent.
Flip your wrist, pick it up, and the sword in the opponent's hand will be released and fly into the air!
The long sword used for practice whizzed down, and before it came into contact with the ground, the tip of the sword in Zhang Yuan's hand was already pressed against the opponent's throat.
He completed the entire set of movements in just a second, and everyone present was in a daze.
The most confused person is the person involved, Zhao Hongfei.
He only felt that he had just swung the sword in his hand, and then the scene in front of him blurred, and his hand felt light.
It took him two or three seconds to realize that the opponent's sword seemed to be right next to his neck.
Gudong!
He swallowed instinctively, looked up again, and saw Zhang Yuan's eyes like a pair of tiger eyes, staring at him as if looking at prey.
"I was obviously supposed to point at his neck, why was it the other way around?"
He didn't understand.
And he felt instinctive fear of Zhang Yuan's ferocious aura at this time.
He was thinking before, how could a person like this, who only knew how to defend and retreat step by step in battle, steal the male lead of this drama from Nie Yuan and Huang Xiaoming?
Now, when he looked at the ferocious eyes in front of him, he seemed to understand something.
“Hey!” Zhang Yuan finally reacted and quickly stopped.
The expression and eyes returned to normal.
"Brother Zhao, I'm offended."
"My problem."
He quickly put the sword aside, then picked up the opponent's long sword and handed it back with both hands.
“I didn’t react just now, please forgive me.”
“You...” Zhao Hongfei raised his hand to take his sword, but found that his hand was shaking badly.
Only then did he remember that the opponent he had previously judged as weak in his heart had actually knocked away the sword in his hand with one move, leaving him numb to this day.
This strength...
"Have you ever practiced martial arts?" Before Zhao Hongfei could ask, a middle-aged man with long hair parted in the middle walked up not far away.
"Hello, director." Everyone greeted in unison.
The person who came was none other than Yu Min, the director of the crew. He was also the one who called Zhang Yuan from a distance just now.
This man came forward and looked Zhang Yuan up and down.
"It seems to be really dark."
But it is still a bit fair, far from the contrast effect in his mind.
The so-called contrast effect is twofold.
The first is the contrast with the ancient version.
The second is the contrast with Liu Qianqian, the little dragon girl.
After all, the darker Zhang Yuan is, the whiter and more fairy-like Sissi looks.
Zhang Yuan specially sunbathed himself on the beach in Shiina, and he was indeed quite tanned.
But after a period of self-cultivation and shooting more night scenes, I soon gained a lot of money.
In Yu Min's eyes, this seems a bit perfunctory.
He is also the kind of director who has a strong desire to control, and with the bearded man always following him, Zhang Jizhong pressures the actors. He always sticks to his word on the set and lets the actors do whatever they want.
But there happened to be a "thorn" here.
“Your skin color is not dark enough, and it does not meet the crew’s shooting requirements.”
Rip!
Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes. As soon as I arrived on the set, he was going to give me power and enforce the rules?
He smiled and pushed back.
"Director Yu, I have tried my best. If I really can't meet the crew's requirements, Producer Zhang and I can actively apply and let him replace the actor with a more suitable one before filming starts, so as to save delays. "The crew is filming."
Yu Min:...
Director Yu was thinking that Big Beard was very unhappy when he took leave for filming and didn't come to the training camp.
So Big Beard paid special attention to him and asked him to be careful about "using" this kid.
He originally wanted to take this opportunity to declare his initiative, but was choked back by Zhang Yuan's words.
Because the bearded man can "oppress" the actors so much, he relies on two tricks.
I can make you famous, and I dare to fire you!
But Zhang Yuan is already famous now, and the bearded man has no strong reason, so I really don’t dare to fire him casually.
Otherwise, Ma Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei would not be able to explain. The bearded man can't do anything to me, so who are you and me... It was precisely because Zhang Yuan was sure of this that he dared to "apply for resignation."
Besides, he didn’t plan to cooperate with Big Beard for a long time, so he was not afraid of Yu Min.
"Ahem." Yu Min cleared his throat. He was here to show off his power, but instead he felt a little unable to do so.
"It's not so serious. You are still the most suitable candidate. The skin color problem can only be solved with makeup. It's not a big deal."
He had to ask and answer himself and solved the problem he raised.
"The hero is here, let's welcome him." Then in order to ease the embarrassment, he took the lead in applauding.
Yu Min left soon after, and everyone else could feel that Zhang Yuan and the director were not completely harmonious.
Everyone has something in their mind.
At this time, Zhao Hongfei clasped his hands and asked again.
“Brother Zhang, have you ever practiced martial arts?”
"Ah, I have practiced."
Zhao Hongfei: ...
That's what I said.
Then I, Baba, plan to give lessons to others...that’s not right.
Zhao Hongfei suddenly reacted.
The reason why he suddenly jumped out and wanted to spar with Zhang Yuan today was because he suffered a miserable defeat to our little dragon girl yesterday.
Just his speed, power, and momentum just now.
Can you lose to the little dragon girl who uses Wahaha as a drink?
At the same time, two other people also raised the same question.
“How did you beat him yesterday?”
The classmate Wang Jia and female martial artist Zhao Dandan beside Liu Qianqian tilted their heads and asked.
Wang Jia only knew that Zhang Yuan knocked Zhao Hongfei's sword away with one strike. It was obviously his sword that was knocked away by Sissi yesterday. This is obviously unreasonable.
She only knew something was wrong, but Miss Zhao, who has practiced martial arts all year round, knew what was wrong.
“His reaction speed is too fast!”
“And the accuracy of his shots is also scary.”
Zhao Dandan didn't even see Zhang Yuan's movements clearly, he only had a rough look.
She knew very well that if she could not see clearly, it meant that the other person was definitely above her, and much taller.
And she is Liu Qianqian's sparring partner. How can she not know the strength of this girl?
Liu Qianqian's cheeks were pink, she cleared her throat, raised her chin, raised her neck like a proud swan, and said with a smile: "You don't understand."
"Only I can defeat Him.”
The two young girls frowned in confusion.
At lunch time, everyone came to a simply decorated shop to eat.
This is the "kitchen" that the crew gave Cao Jianjun and others for temporary use. Anyway, there are many empty houses and shops in the scenic area, and they will not be open to the public until the filming is completed.
“Ah, today’s food is so good?” Wang Jia, who plays Cheng Ying, said while looking at the fried hairtail, boiled prawns and garlic mussels with local characteristics in the lunch box.
The so-called mussel is a black shellfish that looks a bit like mussels.
"The cook is from Zhang Yuan." Xixi took a bite of the hairtail and said while chewing.
"Oh..." Wang Jia understood at this moment: "He is so powerful, and he even paid for the crew."
"Yes, he is very powerful." Sissi While talking, he noticed that his classmate was looking at his dinner plate, so he quickly raised his hand to protect him: "What are you doing?"
"Why are your shrimps so much bigger than mine?"
“I’m lucky.”
"No, it's bigger than mine." Zhao Dandan, who plays Hong Lingbo, also picked up a shrimp and compared it.
"I'm lucky." Sissi continued to emphasize.
The two women looked at each other and knew what was going on.
“No wonder you can beat him.”
“No wonder our food has improved since he came.”
"It's all because of Sissi, isn't it?" Wang Jia pushed her with his shoulder.
Liu Qianqian still had the same pink cheeks as before and whispered back: "No, everyone is the same."
"Then give me your shrimp."
"No!"
A few girls were playing and eating.
After eating, Sissi felt "sick" and went to take a nap.
Zhang Yuan and Zhao Hongfei were sitting together chatting.
"Zhang Yuan, are you left-handed?" he asked.
“No.” Zhang Yuan replied immediately.
"Then I saw you use your left hand when wielding a sword, and you also use your left hand to hold chopsticks when eating."
He felt strange just now that Zhang Yuan ate with his left hand and didn't eat smoothly.
"I am playing Yang Guo, so I have to adapt in advance." Zhang Yuan said with a smile.
"Yang Guo...oh!" Zhao Hongfei thought for a while before reacting.
Yang Guo had his right arm chopped off by Guo Fu in the later stage.
He is adapting to the character in advance.
Zhao Hongfei cupped his fists and raised his hands, while casting a respectful look at him.
“Professional.”
“Hey, it’s all as it should be.” Zhang Yuan waved his hand indifferently.
Mr. Ma Yue, who plays Tang Taizong Li Shimin in "The Reign of Zhenguan", is basically the Li Shimin template recognized by the audience in the Chinese film and television drama industry.
The acting was really great.
Moreover, this person is also good at bel canto and is also an opera singer in the Railway Art Troupe.
It is never an exaggeration to say that he is omnipotent.
And this one once starred in a movie called "My Left Hand".
The prototype of this film is Ding Xiaobing, also known as the "one-armed hero". He was the only active Chinese soldier in later generations who saluted with his left hand.
The movie mainly tells the story of this real-life hero who remained perseverant even after being injured and stayed in the army to do superhuman things despite his disability.
In order to play this role well, Teacher Ma Yue began to practice living with one hand before filming started.
Not only that, but you also have to do push-ups with one hand, get on the horizontal bar, tie your shoelaces, and put on your backpack. Everything has to be done realistically.
These tasks would be difficult for ordinary people to do with both hands. In order to adapt to the role, he gritted his teeth and practiced until he could complete them all with one hand.
Maybe he is an artist.
In order to avoid my own instinctive reaction during the shooting, I even tied my right hand in my trouser pocket with tape.
This is the most "stupid" and most effective method.
What Zhang Yuan is doing now is similar to Teacher Ma Yue, but it is still far behind.
Zhao Hongfei now understands better why Zhang Yuan was able to defeat Nie Yuan and Huang Xiaoming to get the role.
“If I were a director, I would choose him!”
Otherwise, he can be an actor but not a director.
The director's selection is not based solely on acting skills and professionalism.
I won’t talk about the big beard, he focuses on making money and treating celebrities like monkeys for a hundred years.
As for director Yu Min, in addition to following the bearded man to fish for Yuanzi, the Yang Guo he wanted most at the beginning was actually Nie Yuan.
Because he and Nie Yuan had collaborated on a TV series called "Sister-in-law" six or seven years ago, of course he wanted to use "one of his own".
In this industry, nepotism is the norm!
"By the way, Hongfei." Zhang Yuan called him in a more affectionate way: "Please take good care of me from now on, and you must practice with me often."
"Ah!" Zhao Hongfei looked embarrassed.
He is so good, why should he practice with me?
You don’t mean to embarrass me.
“Don’t think too much, I really want to practice with you.”
"After all, I am a fan of Peking Opera."
"Do you still have this hobby?" Zhao Hongfei immediately became excited after hearing what he said.
For those who major in Peking Opera, because the market is so declining, most of them feel like they are seeing relatives when they meet people who are interested in Peking Opera.
“I also learned some martial arts techniques from Master Dong Zhihua.”
“That’s great, I have studied martial arts, let’s talk together when we have time!”
"Communicate together!"
With a few words, the relationship between the two became closer.
Zhang Yuan came to him because he looked aloof, but he was actually a nice person.
Again, he actually felt pity for this person.
Because speaking of it, in the entire Chinese entertainment industry, Zhao Hongfei can be regarded as the top unlucky guy... (End of this chapter)
