The next day, Song Yi thoughtfully brought him breakfast to help him uncover the truth he hadn't finished telling the previous day.
Gu Luojin, who arrived late, missed breakfast: "Little Gu, you haven't eaten yet, have you? I brought you some."
Da Linzi, standing nearby, said, "Sis, I haven't eaten yet either."
"Then remember to go eat earlier next time."
"Sis, you're blatantly showing favoritism."
"Fan Xian is my brother. Is there anything wrong with me bringing him breakfast?"
"Then I'm still your brother!"
"That's from a play."
Aren't she and Brother Gu also characters in the play? They're playing the double standard to the extreme.
Da Linzi thought to himself, "How could this woman be someone who values romance over friendship?"
He was clearly blinded by lust and had completely forgotten about his younger brother.
He knew his own limitations; as expected, humor couldn't compete with good looks.
Humor is a plus for being handsome, but humor without handsomeness makes you a clown.
Gu Luojin couldn't refuse; she needed to replenish her nutrition after training.
Song Yi ignored Da Linzi's complaints and sat to the side watching Gu Luojin eat breakfast.
She was only being so attentive because of the truth that Gu Luojin hadn't finished telling her; she had absolutely no other intentions.
Song Yi's complexion is not as delicate as other female celebrities, but she looks very charming when she wears ancient costumes or cheongsams.
Rumor has it that she doesn't like wearing stockings, and Gu Luojin wants to take on this challenging task and see Song Yi wear them for him once.
Gu Luojin checked Song Yi's level of affection for him.
[Ding: Song Yi's affection level towards you is 73.]
He was even taller than Li.
"Xiao Gu, you didn't finish what you were saying yesterday. Now that it's just the three of us, can you continue?"
When Da Linzi heard that this was the reason, he felt a little better; it wasn't because of his looks.
"sure."
The three moved to the RV, where there was more privacy and no one bothered them.
So Gu Luojin explained it again, but both of them unanimously thought in the direction of Li's plan.
Nobody believes that he got a big resource just because he played a game of billiards. Some people in the industry even offered themselves up for resources.
There were even rumors that one actor, in order to secure resources, slept with everyone from the cameraman to the assistant director, then from the director to the producer, essentially sleeping with the entire crew.
Back then, Yang Mi, who wasn't yet a top star, was asked by writer An Yiru: "What do you think about getting roles through unspoken rules?"
Yang Mi's response was: "She wouldn't accept unspoken rules for such a good opportunity."
As for whether it's true or not, only she knows.
The interviewee, An Yiru, gave an even more intriguing answer, making no attempt to hide her thoughts.
"It depends on who the director is. If it's Zhang Yimou or Li An, then I'm willing to do it because I can't wait that long."
The subtext is that once I achieve fame and success, great scholars will naturally come to debate the classics for me.
Gu Luojin sensed that they were underestimating the value of a game of pool; there was more to it than met the eye.
Not only must he satisfy the leader, but he must also make sure the leader doesn't realize he's faking it.
You'll only get resources if you make your boss happy, laugh out loud, and be very satisfied with you.
Gu Luojin shook her head. These people will never know the power of emotional value.
"Winning over the two socialites, Aaron Kwok and Wilber Pan, was all about leveraging emotional value."
Otherwise, how could these shrewd old people marry someone they knew was a socialite?
These days, fewer and fewer people believe the truth. Sister Meng is so much better.
She's not quick-witted; it's too easy to fool her.
Sister Meng, I'm getting angry again.
"Little one, I think I heard someone calling me."
"Sister Meng, you're so engrossed in playing mahjong that you're hallucinating. I'm the only one calling you to play a tile, and you still won't. Chu Ran is already impatient to win."
Meng Ziyi felt she was indeed hallucinating, and casually discarded a card she didn't want: "Eight of Bamboo".
"Ziyi, how did you know about my Hu Batong's Little Seven Pairs? Love you, sister."
Love is love, and it doesn't stop me from losing money at all.
"Ziyi, here's the money."
-
"Here you go, here you go."
Meng Ziyi wondered where Gu Luojin, that scumbag, had gone. He was probably flirting with some beautiful woman again.
"Hey, Ziyi, you talk about your ex-boyfriend all the time, you practically sing his praises."
"When will you invite this real Buddha out so I can meet him? I want to see who has such great charm that he can bewitch our Ziyi like this!"
"Is it because the ugly daughter-in-law is too embarrassed to meet her in-laws?"
Since Gu Luojin and she broke up, his resources have never stopped, and he has been constantly filming new projects.
Meng Ziyi had some doubts about dating Gu Luojin; it wasn't that he was hindering her career advancement.
It was her own actions that hindered Gu Luojin's progress; she couldn't even imagine that her first film would gross over 4 million.
"He's a bit busy, but I'll introduce you when I have time."
One of her best friends had already fallen for it, and she didn't want another friend she knew to fall for it too.
Although she wasn't sure what charm that scoundrel Gu Luojin had, she wanted to be on the safe side.
It would be best for the two of them not to meet for the time being; they should delay as long as possible.
"What are you so busy with? You can't possibly have filming every single day."
Actors crave the opportunity to have films and movies made every day.
Acting is not just about making money; it's about giving yourself more opportunities to become a top star—that's the path to stardom that every actor dreams of.
Even artists like her, backed by a large resource company like Renaissance, can't manage to film on set every day.
If Meng Ziyi's ex-boyfriend can manage to have acting roles every day, like Da Tian Tian used money to pave the way and spend money to get into the industry.
Could he be the son of some wealthy family, just trying his luck in the entertainment industry?
There are many rich second-generation and "red second-generation" figures in the entertainment industry, and many of them have been exposed as frauds.
Because genuine second-generation rich kids wouldn't come out and create a persona of being a second-generation rich kid; those who can maintain that persona without it collapsing are fewer than one person on the hand.
Meng Ziyi couldn't answer, so Zhou answered Wang Churan's question for her.
"Brother Gu is currently filming a big production, I think it's called something like 'Joy of Life'. I heard it has a star-studded cast."
"There are many established actors among them, including Best Actor winners and several national first-class actors."
A hint of suspicion flashed across Wang Churan's face, clearly visible on her fair and radiant complexion, suggesting there was some juicy gossip to be had.
Wang Churan thought to himself, "Why does Zhou know more than Meng Ziyi?"
Meng Ziyi's mind was exceptionally sharp at this moment, and she kicked Zhou Yi.
The two are best friends, and Meng Ziyi is also Gu Luojin's ex-girlfriend. Now Zhou is pursuing Gu Luojin again.
This complex and incomprehensible contradiction cannot be known to outsiders.
"Because my ex-boyfriend and I were in the same production team in the previous drama, we still have each other's contact information."
The world is sometimes very big, but sometimes very small.
Even something as small as two people who grew up in the same small town and could see each other every day when they were dating.
Even after the breakup, I passed by that familiar street countless times, but never bumped into it even once in several years.
It's quite a coincidence that these three people could meet in this situation.
"Oh." It's normal for friends to stay in touch and know each other's news.
Wang Churan didn't think deeply about the relationship; his friends knew the news, but his ex-girlfriend didn't.
"Brother Gu, the director wants you to start filming." Xiao Lu became the messenger.
"Coming right away."
He glanced at the RV; it was completely empty. How could he entertain guests like this?
"Xiaolu, go buy some food and drinks, and then buy a portable Wi-Fi device to put in the car."
It has drinks, games, and a place to lie down and rest—that's what makes a motorhome; otherwise, it's just a bare-bones house.
When he visited Professor Cheng Daoming's RV, he found it to be fully equipped, even including tea-making tools.
Gu Luojin got off the RV first, followed by Song Yi, which made the crew smell the gossip.
Unexpectedly, the male lead and the second female lead got out of the same RV so quickly.
Li, as a bystander, was dumbfounded. Starting a fight so early was far too unreserved.
She's even more generous than her.
Da Linzi, who was at the back, also came down, extinguishing everyone's enthusiasm for gossip. A few sighs of "Eh?" could be heard from the surrounding area.
It's as if Da Linzi's presence made them miss this great opportunity to enjoy the gossip; without any exciting elements, the gossip would be utterly boring.
A lone man and woman together is interesting and evokes imagination, while two men and one woman simply engage in conversation between friends.
Gu Luojin saw right through the staff's thoughts: "There are always treacherous people trying to harm me."
"Sister Xin." Xin Zhilei, the Venice Film Festival Best Actress winner, showed her the utmost respect.
Gong Li, Xia Yu, and Ye Dexian are the three Chinese actresses who have won the Best Actress award at the Venice, Berlin, and Cannes Film Festivals, respectively.
This is enough to prove her acting skills, and her talent is outstanding. However, we should also give credit to the efforts of a judge in China.
Jia Zhangke's wife, Zhao Tao, is the only Asian actress to win a David di Donatello award. She has served as a jury member at three A-list international film festivals, ensuring that Chinese-language films did not leave empty-handed each time.
Every shot hits its mark; the battle record is verifiable.
Everyone knows that international film festivals are never just about good acting skills, but about the struggle for power and influence.
Awards like the three major A-list awards, including the Oscars, are largely determined by the opinions of the judges.
First, we discussed, then we voted. During the discussion, no one from our own circle stepped forward to interpret the excellence of this film.
Why would foreigners choose to win awards for films from other countries?
Zhang Manyu, the most decorated actress in China, has clearly stated that if she were a judge, she would definitely help domestic actors.
If no one from China makes the cut, then she'll help Asians.
Jeon Do-yeon of South Korea won the Best Actress award at Cannes back then, and Zhang Manyu's help was indispensable behind the scenes.
Wang Jiawei's award at Cannes for "Happy Together" was also the result of Gong Li and Isabelle Adjani's strong advocacy behind the scenes.
The fact that "Lust, Caution" won the Golden Lion Award was largely due to Zhang Yimou.
Acting skills are important, but the opinions of the judges behind the scenes are even more important.
Acting skills are your threshold; without someone to help you, no matter how good your acting skills are, it's useless.
A chart depicting the intensity of the prize-tearing battle has been circulating online.
If your film is recognized and endorsed by Zhang Yimou and Jia Zhangke, then you have a very high chance of winning an award.
If your movie has Tony Leung, Maggie Cheung, and Fan Xiaopang speaking up for you, it proves that the movie is of very high quality.
Your film can find Gong Li and Zhao Tao to speak on your behalf and help you.
That's why Chinese films can win awards at the three major European film festivals, but not at the American Oscars.
It's not that domestic films are bad, but rather that the US doesn't want to see China's voice in the world be strengthened.
The four confidences proposed domestically are: confidence in the system, confidence in the path, confidence in the theory, and confidence in the culture.
The most important thing is cultural confidence. Cultural confidence can attract foreigners to our culture, thereby encouraging them to support our country and identify with our culture.
This is the same as the fan culture, except that the fan culture has misused it and made it extreme.
This woman is great in every way, except that she found a boyfriend who seems to be showing off his ignorance.
It's also said that Xin Zhilei isn't very popular in the industry. Sometimes popularity is one thing, and her work is another.
In the past two days, Gu Luojin's acting skills have been seen by the veteran actors and big names present, and his acting skills are no less than those of some older actors.
For example, the female lead and the second female lead have acted in so many dramas in the industry, but they are not as good as Gu Luojin's acting skills. Occasionally, they need him to help them with their scenes.
Some people call someone a veteran actor because they have reached a certain level of acting skill and age, while others call them a veteran actor simply because they have reached a certain age.
"Well done, keep up the good work."
Speaking of which, he and Dr. Zhai were alumni, so there's a connection between them.
"Sister Xin, I heard you're dating my senior brother Zhai Tianlin."
"Yeah, why are you suddenly concerned about our relationship?"
He didn't care at all; as Yang Mi said, most relationships in the entertainment industry end up the same way.
"Isn't this my senior brother? With this connection, if you ever need someone for the theater, remember to recommend me. My acting skills are pretty good."
""
From that drinking party that night, Xin Zhilei had already discerned Gu Luojin's personality and way of handling things.
"Sure, no problem."
It's good to establish a positive relationship with this future Best Actress; you might need her help in the future.
Just then, her senior called, and Gu Luojin, being tactful, immediately avoided the call.
Judging from the upturned corners of the actress's mouth, there must be good news, otherwise she wouldn't be so happy.
The two talked on WeChat for about ten minutes before ending their sweet sharing session when the woman mentioned she was going to start filming.
"Xiao Gu, you should learn from your senior brother. He has earned a doctoral degree. You should also work hard."
Seeing that this woman was having a great time, he didn't want to be a spoilsport.
"Sister, you're right. I'm trying my best to get closer to my senior brother. Otherwise, how could he be my senior brother?"
Study? Study my ass.
Few people in the industry become famous by promoting their high level of education; quite a few, however, are banned.
A bachelor's degree is enough; it's just a title. What's more important is the actor's achievements and how many hit movies they've starred in.
Even if you get a PhD, you won't have the same commercial value or popularity as an illiterate person.
"Congratulations, senior brother, and congratulations, Sister Xin."
"I was just talking about you with your senior. You were quite well-known back in school."
"My reputation is nothing compared to that of my senior who has already earned his doctorate."
His flattery struck a chord with Xin Zhilei: "Your junior is quite interesting."
"I'll remember that. If I ever get a role, I'll call you first."
"Then thank you, Sister Xin."
Gu Luojin, who had no scenes to film for the time being, returned to her RV to rest.
I discovered that someone was already enjoying their campervan, blowing air and eating sunflower seeds.
