From collapsed house idol to entertainment superstar

When Liang Qiong called, Ding Zhi was at Lao Chen's fight club trying to integrate the Bagua Quan he learned in his dream into his own fighting system.

After all, the theory in the mind is theory, and the overhand is overhand. Many times, fighting relies on the "subconscious". The "subconscious" here does not mean the ordinary people's random use of king's eight punches.

There is a mysterious and mysterious saying in ancient martial arts, which is the so-called "qi movement", but this is a mysterious term. In fact, it is to integrate all the skills into muscle memory. When the enemy attacks, the brain is still able to

He was unable to think of a way to counterattack, and his body had automatically made a fierce counterattack. This was only a slight success in fighting.

"Azhi, tell me honestly, have you really secretly hooked up with a big boss in Hong Kong?"

Liang Qiong on the other end of the phone was obviously joking.

But thinking about it from another angle, it was precisely because she knew that Ding Zhi did not have any so-called financial sponsors in Hong Kong Island that she was so surprised in her heart.

"What's wrong?"

This time, Zheng Rui officially contacted Liang Qiong, unlike Ding Zhi who contacted Liang Jiahui directly like last time.

After all, on the one hand, there is a difference in closeness, and on the other hand, it is because last time Liang Jiahui planned to introduce resources to him, but this time Zheng Rui was more like looking for a firefighter.

"Hong Kong director Zheng Rui is filming "The Greedy Wolf", which is also the movie starring Wu Jin and Tony Jaa. It lacks a capable villain, and now it has found you."

Ding Zhi also found it quite strange. He had a lot of friends in Hong Kong, but he really didn't know this director named Zheng Rui. In terms of fame, he had just taken advantage of the popularity of "Peeping" at this time.

It has not decreased, but this kind of popularity does not actually add much to the movie.

For example, just like in a real-life big-budget genre film, it is simply impossible to invite a certain battle to participate in it just for the sake of traffic and popularity.

There are many reasons for this, one of which is the inability to support the box office.

Don’t talk to me about the fan economy. The box office of the movie version of “Zhu Xian” exceeded 100 million on the first day, and then fell off a cliff, which proves that the traffic in movies is often weak in follow-up. After all, the real majority of moviegoers are always the huge ones.

A group of passers-by, not fans of someone else’s family.

Another reason is the cost-effectiveness issue.

Traffic stars are so interested in movies. After all, they can spend such a high salary to hire traffic. Why not just hire an actor who can handle the box office and have acting skills?

The same is true for popular stars in movies. I can be a good star in TV series and get top remuneration, so why should I go to the movie industry to be demoted and suffer a salary cut?

Of course, those who launder money are not included in this list. They are not serious people doing serious things. Can you reason with them?

"The original actor on his side was in a car accident, and he came to rescue him."

Liang Qiong paused here, "It seems that Ren Dahua recommended you to him."

Ding Zhi understood immediately.

Although his relationship with Simon Yam is not as close as his friendship with Best Actor Leung, they had a pretty good impression of each other when they worked together last year.

That makes sense.

"What are your plans?"

Ding Zhi raised his eyebrows when he heard Liang Qiong's question. Liang Qiong's tone seemed to suggest that he did not recommend taking this drama.

But if you think about it carefully, it is also true.

According to what Zheng Rui said, that character is not the protagonist, not even the male villain.

As for Ding Zhi's traffic and popularity at this time, coupled with the fact that he had just completed his role as the leading actor in "Manhunt" half a year ago, taking this role was undoubtedly a step down from his status.

But just like Wang Qianyuan, who was demoted to take over the second male lead in "Peeping" before, Ding Zhi actually doesn't have much obsession with this, and even said that his concept of it is very shallow.

.

"Well, I'll call myself and ask Brother Hua to find out what's going on."

He pondered for a long time and then answered truthfully.

He values ​​the role more than the role.

Just like when he played Ho Guozheng in "Cold War 2", he was no less unhappy than he was in "Manhunt". The only regret was that the scene was too short and unsatisfying.

But he also understands Liang Qiong's good intentions. After all, the manager's perspective on the problem is naturally different from his. He doesn't agree, but he will try to understand.

It's like a sock that has been repaired and patched with countless patches and patches. Is it still the same thing?

After being baptized by many scripts in the dream space, coupled with the memory of the original owner that had a profound impact on him, Ding Zhi at this time is actually a little different from the almost simple and stubborn temperament he had when he first traveled through time.

After hanging up Liang Qiong's call, he dialed Ren Dahua's mobile phone number.

Not long after, I picked up.

"Hey, Brother Hua!"

"Ding Zai? What's the matter? Oh, have you already received an invitation from Director Zheng?"

"Yes, I heard from my agent that you recommended me, Brother Hua, so I thought no matter what the outcome is, I have to thank you first. By the way, let me know what this role is like.

"

Ren Dahua's tone also had a hint of smile.

"How should I put it? In fact, this role is quite simple, even a bit superficial. It is not difficult for you in terms of literary and opera. The problem lies in the aspect of martial arts. This character is actually..."

Ren Dahua took the trouble to explain that the reason why he recommended Ding Zhi was that he naturally felt that this role was quite suitable for Ding Zhi.

In the limited fighting scenes during the filming of "The Hunt", he could vaguely see the star-making temperament in Ding Zhi.

Naturally, he also knew that Ding Zhi had become famous in the mainland in just six months, and could be regarded as a so-called new traffic star.

Under this situation, others might have rejected this supporting role, but he felt that Ding Zhi might consider it.

Because during the filming of "The Hunt", Yam Dahua realized that Liang Jiahui was right, Ding Zhi's achievements will not be low, but compared to a star, he will be more like a pure actor.

This may be the reason why his old friend Liang Jiahui values ​​​​Ding Zhi, because when Liang was young, his mentor Li Hanxiang said something like this: I want to make you a star, but you choose to be an actor.

Promote!

The role of "Warden" is obviously challenging and attractive to Ding Zhi.

Because this is a type of role that he has never been exposed to before.

Most importantly, he seems to have the ability to do it.

After hanging up Ren Dahua's call, Ding Zhi touched his chin and thought for a moment, then opened Liang Qiong's WeChat account.

"Sister Qiong, I plan to take on this drama."

After a while, the other party responded to the message.

"I knew it. But don't forget what you promised Chen Ke!"

What did you promise?

That's naturally a matter of the book.

When Ding Zhi saw this message, he suddenly remembered something, scrolled down his address book, and saw Chen Ke's "replying manuscript" message, but he had not yet replied.

At this time, he was a little lucky that WeChat did not have a "read" reminder function.

Then Chen Ke sent back a message.

"The first draft is almost finalized. It's stuck on a key plot point. It should take some time."

Then he opened a blank document on his phone.

My fingers moved and I typed a title.

"The Year That Reversed Destiny"

After a pause, he continued to type two more titles.

"The Counter Situation", "The Hidden Corner".

"Hey, forget it, I'll think about it next time when I have time."

Looking at the blank document with only three titles, a certain pigeon muttered to himself without a red face and a heartbeat.
