377 [Genius is Lonely]
"George, genius is always lonely. When the [heliocentric theory] was first proposed, no one believed it, and Copernicus was even burned to death by the Holy See; when the [Earth Round] was just proposed, no one was willing to believe it until Magellan circled the earth; when the [Relativity Theory] was first introduced, there were no more than double-digit people in the world who could understand it..." Ye Jin finally persuaded George Lucas.
"The Star Wars we are shooting now is a story that no one has ever filmed throughout history. It is normal for mediocre people to accept it for a while. But we must maintain our confidence in ourselves, because the truth is in our hands."
When George Lucas heard what he said, his heart was swaying and his fighting spirit was high.
Not bad, genius is lonely!
"Star Wars" is definitely a good story, but those people are too mediocre and don't know how to appreciate them at all. It is really unnecessary to be lost because of those people.
"Ye, thank you for your advice. I've all woken up." Lucas said excitedly, regaining confidence. "I will complete this drama well and surprise those people."
"Well, okay, then I'll wait." Ye Jin nodded with a smile.
...
Encouraged and restored his fighting spirit, Lucas returned to filming, and Ye Jin once again devoted himself to the filming of "Fang Shiyu Sequel".
On that day, he was chatting with Zhou Xingchi who came to visit the set.
"How is it, Ah Xing, how do you feel after filming?" Ye Jin asked with a smile.
During this summer vacation, Ah Xing followed Ye Jin's instructions and joined Cheng Long's "Rage Fist" crew.
Although he is Ye Jin's apprentice, Ye Jin did not give him preferential treatment, and A Xing still started as a supporting role and worked part-time.
The reason for this is that Ye Jin mainly wants to temper him.
You must know that the sword is sharpened by sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold.
The key to the level of achievements a person has achieved is not the starting point, but the struggle.
It seems like Cheng Long's son, whose debut album is the producer of the music godfather Lee Junsheng, who played the protagonist in his first movie... His resources are so good and the starting point are beyond reach.
But because he lacked hardship, did not have the ruthlessness to endure hardships and was not able to cherish such opportunities, he died in two years without glory.
In comparison, people like Yang Ying, Zhao Liying, and Wang Feiqiang who are of ordinary origin and have very low starting point are willing to endure hardships, seize every possible opportunity to climb up, and finally achieved remarkable results.
Ye Jin knew that when Zhou Xingchi first entered the entertainment industry, his starting point was very low and his development was not smooth.
He and Liang Chaowei are good friends. They both made their debut at about the same time, but Liang Chaowei has become the number one TVB and became famous in the Hong Kong film industry. Zhou Xingchi was still playing a supporting role on the TVB. He couldn't even add a line, and was scolded [He looks like a dog].
It is precisely because of this hardship that Zhou Xingchi can focus on developing, sharpen his acting skills bit by bit, and eventually accumulate strength and become the group with the best acting skills in the Xiangjiang film industry.
Therefore, Ye Jin did not want to help the seedlings grow. He let Zhou Xingchi enjoy high treatment and play the leading role as the male lead. There is no other use except to make him develop a arrogant heart.
"It's great, Master, I think filming is really interesting." Zhou Xingchi nodded happily, "Master, can I drop out of school and concentrate on filming? I think it's much more fun than class."
Zhou Xingchi started to attend the third year of junior high school this year, which is equivalent to the third year of junior high school in the mainland, and his studies are very heavy.
In fact, although many movies in Xiangjiang like "The Legend of the Stopped School 2", "The Legend of the Stopped School", "The Changes of King Kong", etc., make the campus extremely chaotic, like a place beyond the law. The students are lawless and have no intention of studying, just like the devil in the world.
However, the truth is that because there are only a few universities in Xiangjiang, the admission rate has always been very low. Only less than 30% of the students can be admitted to colleges and universities for higher education. Therefore, the pressure on students in Xiangjiang to go to school is very high and the academic burden is also heavy.
Because of the low admission rate and heavy academic burden, many students who are unwilling to learn will drop out of school early and start to join society as a teenager.
Zhou Xingchi's studies have always been very good. According to his own estimate, there is basically no hope of taking the college entrance examination. With his family's conditions, it is impossible to send him to study abroad, so he wanted to stop wasting time and join the society early.
He thought that with Ye Jin, the master, he should be able to make a name in the entertainment industry. This is much better than his life in a dark classroom.
"Of course not." Ye Jin immediately rejected it, "Axing, you have to know that knowledge is a person's accumulation and a person's background, and going to school is the best way to obtain knowledge.
You know why I can write so many good scripts because I have a rich knowledge reserve. If you want to become a first-class actor in the future, you must have a tailor-made script. If you don’t have rich knowledge accumulation, do you know how to create scripts?"
A good actor must be equipped with a good script to achieve the effect of one plus one greater than two. Otherwise, no matter how good the acting skills are, it will be difficult to reflect without a good script.
Just like Zhou Runfa, Wu Yusen tailored "The True Color of Heroes", "The Detective", "Blooded Two Heroes", "Peace Hotel", etc.
The character's image, temperament, lines, and style are all very consistent with Zhou Runfa. Therefore, when he acts, he is both at ease and radiant, and he has fascinated many people.
But later, Zhou Runfa made "Bulletproof Monk", "Golden Armor All Over the City", "Dragon Ball", etc. The role positioning in it was not very suitable for him, which made his acting skills unable to be fully displayed, and the characters he created did not have many highlights, which made it difficult to remember.
Zhou Xingchi's success in the early days also depended on the blessing of Liu Zhenwei, Wang Jing, Gu Dezhao, Li Lichi and others. These are all first-class screenwriters and directors in the Xiangjiang film industry, and can tailor scripts for Zhou Xingchi.
So in the 1990s, with their help, Zhou Xingchi launched a series of fine works, such as the "Deer and the Cauldron" series, the "Caoshi" series, the "Fast-study Viagra" series, the "American Journey" series, the "King of Comedy", the "King of Destruction", etc.
In comparison, after leaving them, Zhou Xingchi completely wrote and directed works, such as "The Mermaid", "Journey to the West to Demons", "The New King of Comedy", etc., are a little lacking.
It can be seen from this that Zhou Xingchi's talent in screenwriter is still somewhat lacking, which should be related to his low education and lack of knowledge reserves.
