Entertainment: The opening game and the national goddess official announced

Originally, after the movie "The Chaser" became popular, according to the usual practice in the entertainment industry, artists must take advantage of the popularity to accept several high-priced endorsements or record several variety shows.

One is that you can make money, and the other is that you can increase your popularity and visibility so that the audience will remember you.

However, Zhang Xiao had no such idea at all. After the movie became popular, there were quite a few companies looking for endorsements from him, but most of them were small brands, so he didn't like them.

As for variety shows and commercial activities, Zhang Xiao did not participate in any of them.

Yang Mi asked him more than once why he didn't accept it, and Zhang Xiao's answer was: 'Advertising endorsements and commercial activities are not about more, but about precision, exchanging quality for quantity.'

Regarding not appearing in variety shows, Zhang Xiao's explanation is that he can't be too exposed to the audience, because that will affect his future image creation of film and television characters.'

No matter what it is, Zhang Xiao can always find a reasonable excuse for himself from a tricky angle.

That's Zhang Xiao. If other artists in Yang Mi's company dared to do this, she would probably go crazy.

But facing her husband, Yang Mi really had no choice but to let him go.

In the past half month, Zhang Xiao almost never left or took a step forward. He stayed at home every day and devoted himself wholeheartedly to Mei Changsu's world.

In order to get closer to the characters more vividly, Zhang Xiao practices boxing for several hours every day and reduces his food intake by more than half, eating only one plate of vegetables and one fruit for each meal.

It's simply more exaggerated than those female celebrities' weight loss.

In just half a month, Zhang Xiao's weight dropped by fifteen pounds, his face became pale and thin, and his spiritual eyes became much softer.

Isn't there a flash of wisdom in the depths of his eyes? He looks like an extremely weak scholar. How can he look like a martial arts practitioner?

Yang Mi felt very distressed when she saw how Zhang Xiao had turned her into this state. She tried to persuade him almost every day, but Zhang Xiao just wouldn't listen.

From this, Yang Mi also posted a set of photos of Zhang Xiao practicing boxing, eating, and his current state on her Weibo, with the caption "The drama is greater than the sky".

Many fans were extremely shocked when they saw the extremely thin Zhang Xiao.

"Oh my god, is this still Xiao Shen? Why does he feel so sick? He can't be sick!"

"The drama is greater than the sky. Is it Xiao Shen who is trying to lose weight for the character in "Nirvana in Fire"?"

"You must take care of yourself, five-star killer Dong Xiaofeng!"

"To risk your life like this for a role, you are definitely a good actor!"

"Those little freshmen who can only speak 12345 should really learn from Xiao Shen what an actor is."

"Upstairs, please don't compare the two. That is an insult to Xiao Shen."

“···”

Not only were netizens surprised, but many artists in the industry who had worked with Zhang Xiao also expressed their opinions on Weibo.

Cao Ping: "The body is the capital of revolution, you should pay more attention to your body!"

Wang Qiang: "Brother Xiao, are you going to be so fierce?"

Li Liangjie: "Zhang Xiao, you are really a lunatic!"

Liang Chaowei: "Xiao Zai, I know you are a kung fu master, but your method of losing weight is too scary!"

Chen Daoming: "To play a role, you have to enter a role. For the younger generation, you should be the leader."

Zhang Yimou: "Zhang Xiao, a respectable actor, I look forward to working with you again."

Zhang Ziyi: "The drama is bigger than the sky. It's a pity that I couldn't play a scene opposite you in "Hero". I hope I can make up for it in the future."

“···”

Yang Mi did not expect the speeches made by many big names in the industry, especially those on the "Hero" crew. Zhang Xiao only stayed on the crew for about ten days.

He actually has such a good relationship with Zhang Yimou, Li Liangjie, Liang Chaowei, Zhang Ziyi and other big names who are at the top of China's entertainment industry.

You know, if you look at the entire entertainment industry, other than Zhang Xiao, there is probably no young actor who can get these people to take the initiative to stand up.

Even Yang Mi herself didn't dare to say how good her relationship with these top celebrities was, but Zhang Xiao actually did it in ten days.

After the intense preparation work in the early stage, the launch date of "Nirvana in Fire" is approaching.

Three days ago, Zhang Xiao took out 30 million from Bitcoin. Including the money he earned from the movie "The Chaser", a total of 45 million was given to the crew.

Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi arrived at Hengdian Film and Television City two days in advance, but when they arrived, they realized that they had arrived too late.

Ding Yongdai, Wang Jinsong, Liu Yijun, Liu Mintao, Ning Wen and other veteran actors had already arrived, and they were all there memorizing lines and learning etiquette, which made Zhang Xiao admire them very much.

"Zhang Xiao, how many pounds have you lost?" Kong Sheng and Li Xue asked in surprise after seeing Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi arrive.

They had also seen the set of photos uploaded by Yang Mi on the Internet, but they did not expect that the real person was thinner than in the photos, and her figure was more graceful, almost comparable to Wang Jinsong.

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "I weighed myself before I came here, but I only lost twenty-three kilograms. If I were not afraid of losing my appearance, I would like to lose another ten or eight kilograms."

After hearing this, both of them gasped. How long has it been? In less than a month, they have lost twenty-three pounds. What a crazy person!

Kong Sheng couldn't help but said: "Zhang Xiao, has anyone ever told you that you are a madman?"

Zhang Xiao smiled and pointed to Yang Mi next to him, and said slowly: "The person next to me calls me crazy at home every day!"

"got used to!"

Li Xue couldn't help but said: "Actually, you already looked like Mei Changsu in appearance before, why bother yourself like this anymore?"

Zhang Xiao replied seriously: "What I want is not to be like Mei Changsu, but, I am Mei Changsu."

When Kong Sheng and Li Xue heard this, they were extremely shocked.

What is a real actor?

This is!

After hearing Zhang Xiao's words, the other veteran actors looked at him with eyes full of admiration.

If you are not crazy, you will not become a Buddha.

Let’s not talk about Zhang Xiao’s acting skills. His attitude towards performance alone is already awe-inspiring. Compared with those young talents, it is really much better.

While they were shocked, they also felt a strong pressure.

Zhang Xiao's acting skills have been proven by roles such as Squad Leader Shi Jin, Dong Xiaofeng and King of Qin. Even the National Master Zhang Yimou highly recognized his acting skills. If his play was suppressed, it would be embarrassing!

Obviously, their worries are normal.

That night, Li Xue summoned all the actors from "Nirvana in Fire" for a performance.

The drama here is not a drama, but a recitation of the lines in the script from beginning to end.
