Whose Little Eyes Haven’t Seen the Actor Yet

When the news that "Full House" was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival came back to China, everyone who knew the inside story couldn't help but sighed "It's too evil."

As one of the three major international film festivals, the Venice Film Festival prefers art and avant-garde films. Even if the film is slightly flawed, as long as the focus is novel and unique, it will be accepted by the festival.

"Full House" is such a work with novel content and unique techniques: the film is very short, plus the beginning and ending of the film barely make up to 70 minutes, telling the story of a troupe going to the countryside to perform. There is one protagonist, two supporting roles, and several group performances.

The filming time before and after the show was only ten days, and the director was not well-known—he had been shooting in other crews before. The script was written by himself. The lighting recordings were all helped by acquaintances. The venue was free, and even the camera was available. It's coming.

It was such a work that looked like a joke, and it was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival!

But the "evil door" that everyone sighs does not refer to this matter, but the actor Jiang Zicheng of this movie.

Because of Jiang Zicheng's luck, good is too evil.

I have seen Jiang Zicheng's insiders, and I have a very good impression of him.

The young man loves to laugh. He has bright eyes, long eyelashes, white skin, and a beautiful face. He is the most popular look of beautiful males nowadays. This kind of look is most suitable for taking the traffic niche route. As long as you put on a few poses in front of the camera and provoke the heroine's chin to say a few words of earthy affection, the hearts of the little fans can be throbbed.

Jiang Zicheng is not a vase. He graduated from a serious subject, has excellent grades, enters the show quickly, and is willing to work hard. But his brokerage company is not strong, has no resources, and can't get any good jobs at all.

But the first "bad" scene he took, it exploded.

The play was adapted from a love game on a mobile app, and against the harem, eight male protagonists are jealous for one female protagonist. Halfway through the filming, that small company actually went bankrupt. It stands to reason that this drama should also have a miscarriage. The person who wants to take over this mess is actually a certain real estate group!

The daughter of the group boss is a loyal player of this game. Miss Qian Jin brought a large investment to the airborne crew, directly squeezed the heroine away, and appeared in person, and staged a love guessing with eight beautiful men.

Because the whole filming story took a turn for the worse, and the scene of eight men competing with one woman in the play was very eye-catching, so the show was directly scolded in the hot search, and the whole summer vacation did not stop.

The second drama Jiang Zicheng received was not favored at the beginning of filming. What's the name is "The Brother Sleeping Under My Bed in the Boys' Dormitory", a horror web drama, which is a bad movie configuration at first glance.

When the result was released, it happened to catch up with a similar hot social news, so I was confused and won the paid viewing championship of the month.

Then there is the third play...the fourth play...the fifth play...

In just two years, Jiang Zicheng's films have become popular for various reasons. Some of these films are rotten and rough, some are well-made, and some are crowded with celebrities. They have different themes, but they are quite popular.

And Jiang Zicheng, who frequently appeared in these "fire" films, was gradually noticed by the audience.

Jiang Zicheng's acting skills have nothing to say, whether it's pretending to be well-behaved, or playing hard and pretending to be cool, they all portray three-pointers. When he finished the scene and removed his makeup, he became a funny blogger on social networks, and he shared with him every day.

He has no idol baggage at all, and he is very grounded, making jokes and unscrupulous.

The agent really couldn't stand him racing on Weibo all day long, so he confiscated his Weibo account.

Later, he opened a trumpet called "@江子城1".

The broker confiscated the account again.

So he opened "@江子城2".

The agent confiscated the second trumpet again.

But his trumpet is like a leek, slice after slice, first "@江子城3", then "@江子城4", then "@江子城5"...

…In this way, he drove until "@江子城18", and the agent finally gave up and was too lazy to care about him.

Fans joked, saying that if he doesn't want to make a movie one day, he can switch to Durex's Weibo copywriting, and he will definitely get a million annual salary.

"@江子城18" replied to this comment: I haven't won the actor of the three major film festivals, it is impossible for me to retire~

On the second day he wrote this comment, the news that "Full House" was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival spread throughout the entertainment industry.

In the office of the boss of Tianxin Film and Television Company, the air conditioner turned on to eighteen degrees.

Jiang Zicheng sat on the solo sofa with an unruly posture. The large trendy T-shirt enveloped his body loosely. He wore a pair of ripped jeans today, with his knees exposed on both sides. He was pulling the T-shirt down hard to keep his knees warm. To prevent getting old and cold legs.

Opposite him, the boss of this company picked up a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his bare head.

"Um, Zicheng, congratulations on your new film being nominated for the Venice Film Festival." The boss's tone was very polite, even with a little flattery.

No way, this film and television company is extremely small. The only three contracted artists have two idle to squeeze their feet. Jiang Zicheng is a well-deserved brother-although this "one brother" is placed in other film and television companies, it can only be regarded as eighteen. Line little artist.

Jiang Zicheng was still fighting with his big T-shirt and ripped pants, and casually replied: "Boss, you are too polite to say that. I also want to thank the company for allowing me to take the job privately."

That's right, "Full House", the movie that made Jiang Zicheng appear on the big screen for the first time, was bought by him himself. The film has a budget of 300,000 yuan. The director has several roles, and a few friends in the circle are responsible for lighting, radio, editing, and soundtracking. It took ten days to complete the filming. The director took half of the budget and asked the troupe to sing for ten days. As the male lead, Jiang Zicheng was paid only 50,000 yuan.

He is now making more than this price for an episode of TV series. When he took over the job, the agent suspected that he was crazy.

But there is no way, who makes him "the first brother".

And this "one brother" is extremely lucky, as long as he has participated in the film, it will definitely be popular.

But the agent did not expect that this time he would be popular at the Venice Film Festival.

The boss picked up the teacup and drank tea silently, without saying a word for a long time.

While pulling the hem of the T-shirt, Jiang Zicheng asked casually: "You called me to discuss the future marketing with me? I still hope to keep a low profile. It's okay to play the movie, but I don’t care. I am **** with other stars. You also know that my iron fan is basically non-existent, and it will be too ugly to be slaughtered by someone."

He talked for a long time without hearing the boss' reply.

He felt wrong now, he raised his head and looked at the agent next to the boss.

The agent looked away.

He looked at the boss again.

The boss concentrates on drinking tea.

"..." Jiang Zicheng had a premonition and asked softly, "Boss, has our company encountered any difficulties?"

"Well, about this..." The boss coughed, "Don't worry, it won't go bankrupt, that is, it will be changed in a few days—"

Jiang Zicheng understood: "Are we being swallowed up?"

The agent whispered "Uh".

Jiang Zicheng was not surprised by this answer. He had long known that this kind of family workshop-style small company would not last long.

There are a total of 20 artists in the company. Except for Jiang Zicheng, the remaining 19 people are related to the boss. The boss has a deep-rooted concept of a big family. He starts a company by himself and the whole family makes money together. Even the two wolfdogs who guard the door do not seek out the village.

Jiang Zicheng used every inch of muscle on his face and used his top acting skills in the two years of his career, inch by inch, inch by inch, so that every pore on his body exudes "surprise", "accident" and "unbelievable". breath.

"How could it be so sudden?" There was a sense of loneliness and regret in his voice, and a thin layer of tears filled his eyes, "I didn't hear the wind at all before."

"Actually, it's not a sudden." The boss comforted him, "You have been focusing on filming before, and you may not have noticed. Since the beginning of this year, our company's operating conditions have not been very good."

Pooh.

How could Jiang Zicheng not notice? At the end of last year, the company couldn't pay employees' wages. The boss held on to his salary and fooled him to exchange the salary for one-fifth of the company's stock. After he nodded his agreement, the company had the money to pay the rent for the next year.

The agent said: "Half a month ago, Rich Entertainment suddenly interviewed us, saying that it was going to buy, and the conditions were very good. Our company was in a difficult time, so the boss agreed."

The boss was very depressed: "Why don't you think that the front foot will finalize the acquisition, and then the news that your film will be selected for Venice... It seems that they have already received inside information and lowered the price in advance."

Jiang Zicheng leaned forward slightly, with anxiety on his face and clenched fists. This performance fell in the eyes of the other two, and it became synonymous with tension.

The boss comforted him: "But don't worry, Zicheng, your size can be regarded as our company's shareholder. Now that there are works that can enter the international film festival, Rich Entertainment will never give you a cold bench!"

Jiang Zicheng shook his head, still looking unbearable.

The agent and the boss took turns to comfort him. After speaking, the three big men couldn't help but red eyes.

Jiang Zicheng is beautiful and looks good when he cries. The teardrops hung on the long and curled eyelashes, and with a gentle blink, they fell out, drop by drop, like a jade bead on the neckline.

The three people stayed in the office and cried all afternoon. In the end, the agent took the lead to stop the cry and handed the tissues to the artist.

"Zicheng, don't cry, your eyes are swollen from crying," he said.

Jiang Zicheng was still choking: "Cry for swelling and cry for swelling. Anyway, I don't need to go out to see people this week."

The company is not strong. Apart from filming, he rarely has the opportunity to show his face in the announcement.

Agent: "Who said that? The next night, Rich Entertainment will hold a dinner party. Your invitation and dress have been delivered."

※

Walking out of the company, the sorrow that Jiang Zicheng had just hanging on his face instantly disappeared, leaving only a shining sun.

If it wasn't for his eyes that were still swollen, no one could see that he had just cried with his former agent and former boss.

He blew his whistle in relief, and his sly expression flashed across his eyes, even his footsteps were lighter.

Everyone can be surprised by the annexation of his own company by Rich Entertainment Group, but Jiangzicheng will never be surprised.

-To be more precise, Jiang Zicheng knew all this in advance before he signed the brokerage contract two years ago.
