152. Experience life: physical education teacher (4000 words for the month

Xu Shi now feels powerful and has nowhere to use it, from the beginning playing the role of the boss in Cheng Guochao's "The Sword of the Sword", to Wang Lixin's "The Martial Saint Guan Yu", to Feng Yuxiu in "One Man's Martial Arts".

Xu Shibu didn't have this feeling. When playing these roles, he felt very comfortable and didn't have much awkward feeling. It seemed that he naturally had a degree of compatibility with him.

But in the role of Truman, he has an indescribable awkward feeling, or a sense of inclusion is not strong.

The character Truman was a sunny boy in the early stage. Although he was married, he was pure in mind. No matter what he faced, everyone had a bright smile on his face.

Xu Shi didn't grasp this clean and pure feeling very well. According to the real situation, he had been out of this state for almost forty years.

This kind of clean and pure life is only before the age of sixteen, and at most eighteen or nineteen. Once you pass this age, it will be difficult to maintain such a innocent heart.

Although Xu Shi is only twenty-six years old now, in fact, when he was born in this world, his mind was not so pure.

These reasons make Xu Shi feel very difficult when playing Truman, and the effect is not very good.

Fortunately, Xu Shi forced himself into this state, but as time went by, it became difficult for him to grasp this state.

For example, his smile just now, according to the script, should be a bright and sunny smile, he also tried hard to achieve this state, but in fact his smile was a little deliberate and distant.

Xu Shi didn't notice this when he was performing it, but when he watched it again on the monitor, the feeling was very obvious.

"Brother Xu, you are indeed a bit unnatural. Should you slow down? Find the feeling?" Cheng Guochao said.

As a senior director, he is very sensitive to such details and immediately noticed something wrong.

Zhang Kui felt a lot worse about this, and he didn't realize it until Cheng Guochao mentioned it.

Xu Shi smiled bitterly and said, "The key is that I don't know how to adjust."

If Xu Shi relied on the memories he had when he was a teenager to experience it, it would be difficult for Xu Shi to do it because many things had already become blurred. Even the first love that he had a deep memory in his previous life, which he felt that he would never forget was a little blurred at this time.

"Xu Shi, let me tell you my suggestion." Huang Bing came over at this time. He was playing the guest role with Xu Shi just now.

"Brother Huang, tell me." This is the best actor.

"I am a wild person. Although I have studied in the academy systematically, some habits cannot be changed. Whenever I encounter such a situation, I will go to experience the life of characters similar to characters on the spot.

In this way, you will have a new understanding of the role. I think you are only twenty-six years old now and are not old. If you really can't do it, you can go to school and stay with the students for a while.

Recalling your memories of your student days carefully, so that you can have a new understanding.” Huang Bing told Xu Shi his experience.

What he still recognizes Xu Shi very much is not Xu Shi's acting skills, but his attitude towards acting.

Although Huang Bing also knew that Xu Shi was not so passionate about movies, and everything he did was because of martial arts, but with such an attitude and professionalism, how many people could compare to Xu Shi?

So this time, Xu Shi just invited him casually.

Xu Shi felt thoughtful when he heard Huang Bing's words, but he quickly said, "Well, Brother Huang, I have never really been to school. The total time I spent in school is no more than a year."

Huang Bing was stunned when he heard this. Just as he was about to say something, Cheng Guochao slapped him suddenly and said, "I thought of it, Xu Shi, just go to a middle school to be a teacher. If you don't have the best elementary school, it's just a middle school."

"Be a teacher? I? Lao Cheng, what are you kidding?" Xu Shi said with a moment of silence.

"I really didn't joke with you. Can't you be a physical education teacher? And physical education teachers are the best at getting along with students.

In physical education class, the students' youthful and lively and active personality can be fully displayed in front of you." Cheng Guochao said excitedly.

Xu Shi was stunned after hearing this. This seemed to be OK, but then Xu Shi thought of a question: "This kind of experience probably takes a lot of time, and the crew's work cannot be suspended, otherwise the schedules of some other actors will be in conflict, and it will be difficult to deal with by then."

This is also a big problem. Many actors have a lot of schedules, and it takes a lot of time to delay this, and those actors probably won't agree.

As for the funding issue, it’s easy to say. If it really doesn’t work, Xu Shi can subsidize some of it himself.

Cheng Guochao said: "I'll communicate with them this, and it's just a few key actors, and some of the others can be filmed in advance.

I feel like you can just experience it for a month, and we are not idle this month. Those scenes without you can be filmed during this period."

Huang Bing also agreed: "Indeed, if your movie is well filmed, it will be of great benefit to these actors. I believe they will not refuse. The key is that the actors you find are good actors who want to really make good works, not people who are in a hurry to get the works."

Huang Bing is much clearer about the entertainment industry than Xu Shi. In fact, actors can be roughly divided into two types. One is an actor who wants to make good movies like him, and the other is an actor who wants to complete the work as soon as possible and make money as soon as possible.

There is no doubt that the first type of actors selected by Xu Shi are all the first type. There is no way. The second type of actors are basically not qualified in terms of acting skills, and they have no intention of studying their acting skills.

Xu Shi was also a little moved, but such things still need to be discussed with investors. This is one of the disadvantages of the large number of investors. Xu Shi cannot do things based on his own wishes.

"If this is true, Brother Huang, I may have to ask you to go there again." Xu Shi said to Huang Bing.

Huang Bing waved his hand and said, "This is nothing. I can only take one day at most, and I can get out of no matter what."

That night, Xu Shixian brought some major actors and told them about the matter, wanting to listen to their opinions.

Zhai Meirong agreed immediately. She played Truman's mother in this movie. Although she didn't have many roles, she really couldn't get such a role without outstanding acting skills.

"Director Xu, I agree with your behavior very much. There are really not many actors like you now. I have no problem with time." Zhai Meirong said.

"Thank you Aunt Zhai." Xu Shi first came to thank him, and then looked at others, especially Liu Yimei, whose schedule was relatively compact.

Liu Yimei thought for a while and said, "My side is almost the same. I will go to the agent tomorrow to discuss it and see if I can arrange the time. The problem is not big."

She is actually very optimistic about this movie, whether it is the storyline or the commercial value.

With the statements of these two people, the others also said that there was no problem or that there was no big problem.

Xu Shi expressed his gratitude. At the end, Liu Yimei suddenly said: "Director Xu, I don't know if there are any advertisements in the movie. I endorsed a shampoo advertisement. Can I insert it in the movie at that time."

Xu Shi left the advertisements of the movie to Yumi to discuss. In fact, Xu Shi had not noticed this problem at the beginning, so he focused all his attention on the movie.

It was only after reminding people from the side of the corn that they realized it. However, Xu Shi didn’t know much about these things, so he didn’t talk about them himself, but gave them all to corn. Corn is a professional in these things.

Xu Shi only had one requirement for these advertisements, that is, he should not commit fraud, but should be realistic.

In fact, it is just about looking for some big brands to advertise, after all, it has quality assurance.

Liu Yimei, the spokesperson, has done a good job and promotes the products she endorsed at any time.

Xu Shi had no objection to this, knowing that this was a kind of exchange of interests. After all, this incident did cause some losses to Liu Yimei.

"Okay, then you ask the advertising company to find the corn side. I will tell them what they want to discuss the specific situation." Xu Shi said.

The shampoo endorsed by Liu Yimei is not a real big brand, it has just risen in recent years, so Mei did not include them on the list at the beginning.

After getting things done with the actors, Xu Shi contacted all investors to hold a video conference.

When these investors heard Xu Shi’s request, they were all stunned.

"Don't worry, if I lose money personally, I will make up for it and will not cause everyone to suffer." Xu Shi said.

"If Brother Xu, we can still bear this loss, and you are also doing the best for the movie. Only when the movie is made can we make more money.

If there is insufficient funds at that time, we can make some investments in proportion, and it will be that little money anyway." Sun Tu said immediately.

The better the film was filmed by Xu Shi, the greater the influence of the film, the greater the benefit it would have on him.

Because he not only has the box office share of the movie, but also the invisible interests of the island.

As long as Xu Shi's movie becomes popular, his island will also become popular, so he supports Xu Shi as soon as possible.

Others heard Sun Tu say this, especially many people who are from Sun Tu's circle, and it is difficult to refute his face. Moreover, what Sun Tu said is right, that's just that little money. For the sake of the sky, they will pay tens of millions of dollars, which is nothing to them.

Seeing everyone's attitude, even if they had any opinions, they couldn't make it clear.

At the same time, the people of Yumi were also helpless. They always felt something was wrong with Xu Shi's cooperation. It didn't look like a formal contract at all, but rather like a straw team.

"Let's do this, some advertisers' money has been transferred in now. If it is not enough, you can use this money.

However, some advertisers signed another contract with us, which was to pay advertising fees based on the final box office," said the person in charge of corn.

His proposal was unanimously recognized by everyone, so it would be best not to pay for it yourself.

After hearing this, Xu Shi first thanked him, and then told Liu Yimei about her request. Yumi also nodded in agreement. As long as she did not lower the price, she would agree. After all, it was just a few seconds of advertisement.

Things settled, and Xu Shi only took less than ten days to shoot the movie this time and was paused.

At this moment, he felt more and more limited. He could have a natural sense of substitution and his own advantages for some villains or tough guy characters.

But he was a little overwhelmed with some peaceful characters.

Xu Shi was not in a hurry to leave, but arranged the crew's work first and found which middle school was willing to ask for him.

Yumi was going to help him find connections and let him go to a middle school in Beijing to work as a physical education teacher for one month.

But before Yumi could communicate, her second sister Xu Yan got it done.

Coincidentally, he just mentioned this matter in the "Happy Family" group, but who knew that the second sister would get things done the next day.

My second brother-in-law’s uncle is the principal of a high school, and Zhao Xiaoqing is studying in this high school.

This is also the reason why my second sister and my second brother-in-law are not worried that Zhao Xiaoqing will not go to high school.

This is related to this, even if Zhao Xiaoqing has poor academic performance, she still has a good high school entrance exam.

Zhao Xiaoqing is now a high school student, and the class Xu Shi wants to teach is their class. After all, she is just a physical education teacher and does not teach cultural courses, so the arrangements are more casual.

Moreover, Xu Shi is still famous now, and he can advertise to the school.

As for the original physical education teacher, he had no opinion at all. Not to mention Xu Shi, he only took the class for one month, and just getting money was enough for him to be happy.

After solving these matters, Xu Shi did not delay and flew directly to his second sister's house.

"Uncle, I miss you so much!" Zhao Xiaoqing saw Xu Shi walk out of the airport and hurried over.

"Okay, I'm so grown-up, don't be like a child. By the way, why didn't you go to class today?" Xu Shi asked, rubbing her head.

"Dear uncle, today is Sunday, so there is no need to attend class." Zhao Xiaoqing said.

Xu Shiyi slapped his forehead. His concept of time is now a bit weak. There is no way. He just studies scripts, lines, and films every day, and his sensitivity to time is naturally much worse.

"Okay, my uncle is wrong, right, where are your parents?" Xu Shi didn't see his second sister and brother-in-law.

"My dad is on a business trip and my mom still has to work, so I asked me to pick you up. My uncle, let's see, I am the closest to you in our family, right? Even your own sister won't come to pick you up." Zhao Xiaoqing said with a smile.
