The Salted Fish Invading the Entertainment Circle

Chapter 39 Choice
There used to be such a rumor on the Internet.

It is said that directors in the western world are very envious of Huaxia directors, because most of them do not have editing rights;
But for Yang Zhu now, he would rather not be envied by western directors.

It has been more than a week in the editing room, and Yang Zhu feels that he has evolved into a close relative of a bat, completely forgetting that sunlight is a magical thing.

To select, choose, decompose and assemble frame by frame from nearly 150G of material, and finally form a movie of about 90 minutes, which is really a torture.

Scanned the pre-cut video: 137 minutes and 51 seconds.

This means that I still need to cut out at least about 40 minutes of footage.

Daguan Yang bared his face. The pictures were all taken by himself, and the feeling of "doing subtraction" is really uncomfortable.

After exhaling, Yang Zhu decided to go and bask in the sun. His mentality was a little wrong now and he needed to adjust.

………………

"Z~"

Yang Daguan, who was leaning against the window to bask in the sun, naturally took the tea soup handed over by the little white rabbit, and drank it in one gulp, finally calming down his restless mood.

"Well, that's right, the skill of making tea is getting better and better, continue to develop!" Yang Zhu praised the little white rabbit very carelessly.

Wan Jing rolled her eyes covertly, and continued to carry forward?Is it so convenient for you to oppress employees in a fair manner in the future?

Seeing the somewhat haggard face of her own boss and the bloodshot eyes that still haven't dissipated, the little white rabbit decided to endure him one more time.

After five bubbles, Wan Jing suddenly remembered something: "Master Boss, there is one thing that needs your decision."

Yang Zhu opened his eyes: "What's the matter?"

"There were just two production crews who made a few calls to me, wanting me to participate in their TV series, one as the second female lead in a costume drama, and the other as the leading actress in a modern drama."

"Originally, they wanted to contact you, but you have been squatting in the editing room, and your phone was turned off, so they found me through Director Du and gave me some advice."

Yang Zhu was a little curious: "Which crew is so blind that they actually asked you to play the second female role?"

The little white rabbit was depressed for a while. In the eyes of his boss, is he so unbearable?Regardless of Director Du or Director Zhang, even those netizens clearly recognized his acting skills.

Yang Zhu seemed to see her thoughts, and looked at her with some amusement: "Do you really think your acting skills are OK now?"

The little white rabbit puffed up her cheeks: "Although it's not very good, the directors and actors I have worked with all recognize my level. At least... At least I have reached the level of being a teacher, right?"

Speaking of the latter, the little white rabbit became a little less confident.

My own BOSS has always been strict. Even though I have accumulated some acting experience, I still get scolded bloody from time to time in the movies that have just finished, and NG20 times still happen from time to time.

Maybe, in the eyes of BOSS, I am still the newbie who knows nothing?

Yang Zhu took a sip of his tea and didn't answer immediately. Instead, he put the empty cup on the coffee table, knocked on the table, and motioned for a refill.

Just when the little white rabbit was feeling uneasy, Yang Zhu spoke.

"Have you thought about your own development path in the future? Do you want to focus on the TV industry or the film industry?"

"Or...the variety show circle?"

Hearing a seemingly irrelevant question suddenly thrown by the BOSS, the little white rabbit didn't react immediately, but since it was the BOSS who asked the question, Wan Jing began to think carefully.

Well, acting in a TV series is quite interesting, the director is easy to talk to, the filming process is relatively relaxed, and you can make many friends, a lot of people can chat and laugh to pass the time.

Acting in a movie is actually quite stressful, and the director is much more demanding; or is it because the only movie director I meet is my own boss, and other directors may not be so fierce?
Also, acting in a movie is very tiring. It’s either NG or on the road to NG all day. Even if I pass today’s path, I still have to spend a lot of time preparing for tomorrow’s scene after returning home, but it’s quite rewarding.

After comparing and comparing, the little white rabbit can't tell which road is suitable for him.

So he replied honestly: "I don't know, it feels pretty good."

Daguan Yang looked at the little white rabbit who was gradually becoming more inclined to be salty fish, a little speechless. Did the female stars in the entertainment circle who agreed were all masters of calculation?How did you get here, without even thinking about which path you want to take in the future?

"Okay, I'll analyze it for you, and then you can consider the gains and losses yourself."

"First of all, most of the training guidance you have received so far is about ancient times, so you have a clear advantage in acting in costume dramas compared to actresses of your generation."

"In most types of costume TV dramas, it's okay for you to play the second female role; the female lead can barely do the job."

"However, if you continue on the road of TV series, there will be two problems."

"First, if you act in two or three more TV series, your image will solidify. In other words, there is a high probability that you will only be able to take on costume dramas in the future."

"Second, although it is easier to act in a TV series, it is basically difficult for your acting skills to improve within ten years, and there is even the danger of regressing."

"Because, not every director of a play will act like Director Zhang and me. They will ask you to follow the existing routine. If things go on like this, your acting skills will become stereotyped."

"Okay, let's move on to the movie."

"Except for ancient costumes, if you don't have special guidance from the director; with your current level, you can at most be the third female in the movie."

"Because your foundation in action dramas, modern dramas, and war dramas is really not that good, and these types of dramas are the mainstream of current movies."

"But...you have been developing in the film industry for one of the biggest benefits."

"Although it will be tiring and stressful to be in the film industry all the time, it can make up for your shortcomings in a short period of time and quickly improve your acting skills."

After listening to the little white rabbit, he fell into an infinite struggle; should he live in the TV circle and wait to die, or continue to suffer in the movie circle?

Wan. The patient with difficult choice. Jing asked his boss weakly: "What's your suggestion?"

Yang Zhu was a little helpless. Is this little white rabbit completely domesticated? Why do you ask me for my opinion on everything?
Coughed and coughed: "In fact, I have always regarded [entertainment circle] and [showbiz circle] separately."

"Although traffic is king now, I have always believed that only by practicing one's own skills well can one truly become an everlasting actor, not a meteor-like star."

"So, my suggestion is...if you can persist, you'd better try the film path first."

"When you can't bear it anymore, it won't be too late to return to the TV circle to retire."

After listening to it, the little white rabbit didn't think much about it: "Sure, I'll listen to Mr. BOSS, and I'll reject those two plays in a while."

Two seconds later, the little white rabbit asked weakly again: "Then... Boss, will you continue to make movies in the future?"

Anyway, she has a bit of common sense. According to the theme and content of the movie that her boss just finished filming, and regardless of the issue of whether it passed the review, even if it can be released, the box office probably won't be good.

She was a little afraid that the boss would be hit, what should she do if she would never make movies again?
Yang Zhu has long been prepared for the movie to hit the street. Besides, even if the movie can complete the current stage of the task after it is released, there are still tasks in the next stage waiting for him. How could he not make it.

So he nodded: "Whether or not this film will hit the street, I will definitely continue to shoot."

After a pause, he added: "At least two or three films will be filmed."

The little white rabbit was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately felt relieved.

Immediately, he became frowning again, it seemed that he was about to fall into endless special training and NG again...
