With Wu Di's current status, if he still chooses the arrogant way of doing things in his previous life, he may be banned by the industry before the movie is released.

Of course, even if he was influenced by the original person, Wu Di is now making reasonable use of it combined with his own personality.

In the past, the original person had been hanging out in Hengdian for so long and could only float around, not even getting a serious role. It was precisely because of his personality.

The current Wu Di is different from his original self after all. However, it was not until recently that he sadly discovered that although he still retained many memories from his previous life, his temperament was inevitably affected by his original self.

Many times, I no longer look like myself!

So, what should I say about Wu Di now? He is a combination of two personalities, with a humble and cautious side and an arrogant and confident side.

Wu Di was surprised to find that it was quite good to have a little fun.

The effect of blending the two personalities together is quite good, as it can well neutralize the weaknesses of the two personalities, or in other words, package those weaknesses into acceptable strengths.

Ever since receiving the film "Skin Change", Wu Di naturally began to use this kind of character mixing, and the effect is obvious.

We have won a lot of praise, and what we need to do now is to continue to maintain it.

Maintaining a persona is also an ability that a mature social person should have. It is like a person who is naturally cunning, but can only pretend to be kind. In the end, because the effect is so good, he himself cannot tell who he is.

A cunning person, but also a kind person.

Just pretend, and you will believe it.

"Who says I haven't seen it?"

Wu Di was undergoing active self-psychological construction. He had just set up the framework when he heard Director Huang suddenly say this.

He was immediately stunned: "What did you say?"

"Have you seen my performance?"

No way!

To be honest, Wu Di has never seen the final shooting result of the film Skin Change.

Zhang Feng didn't even show him the rough cut of the film.

How could Director Huang see this?

Obviously, Director Huang had never been to the filming scene at Hengdian. At that time, he had never seen anyone like him.

"What are you lying to?"

Director Huang was driving and listening to the radio, feeling in a good mood.

"do not you know?"

"I've seen the samples of your movie, and of course I've seen your performance."

"Otherwise, why would I invite you to join in the short film shooting? Who do you think I am? I have very high requirements for my work, even if it is a temporary task."

"If I didn't think your play was pretty good, why would I have come to see you?"

Is there such a thing?

Director Huang was a cheerful person who talked a lot. Before Wu Di could ask any questions, he told all the situation at that time.

Only then did Wu Di realize that many of Lao Zhang's acquaintances, famous directors, screenwriters, and producers had all viewed the reskinned samples internally.

Wu Di also finally found out that the director's daughter, Ms. Zhang Feng, did not know about inviting friends in the industry to watch his daughter's new work.

This operation is really too cool.

What kind of temper does Zhang Feng have? How could he publicize her brainchild everywhere without her permission?

"This is impossible!"

"Before the movie is released, the dailies are in the hands of the director. As far as I know, Director Zhang is very confidential in this aspect. How could she hand over the dailies to Lao Zhang?"

"You don't understand this. Although the relationship between the two of them is not good, they are still father and daughter after all. They still hang out in the same circle. There are still many times when a daughter needs help from her father."

Wu Di: Who said the relationship between the two of them is bad?

Don't talk nonsense and harm others, okay?

There was a red light in front of us. Huang Dao, who was driving very happily, could only stop temporarily, but his mouth still didn't stop.

"As for Xiao Zhang, of course she gave the sample to Lao Zhang to read, but at first she just wanted to hear Lao Zhang's opinion, which can be regarded as a demonstration of her achievements."

"You young people are more familiar with this kind of teacher-student relationship. Even if parents and children are at odds, the children sometimes really want to be recognized by their parents."

"So, Xiao Zhang gave the sample to Lao Zhang to watch. However, what she didn't know was that when she wasn't paying attention, Lao Zhang invited us old friends to watch it together."

"What kind of psychology is this?" Wu Di was really hard to understand. At the same time, he felt that the generation gap did exist among people of different age groups.

If Zhang Feng knew about this kind of thing, he would definitely get angry, and it would definitely be the fury of thunder!

"What else could it be for? Just to show off!" Director Huang's tone was very light and airy, as if parents of his generation had this way of thinking.

"Do you think, if Lao Zhang really didn't support Xiao Zhang entering the industry and becoming a director, would she be able to pull off such a big deal?"

"You have to think about it this way. Although this film does not seem to be a particularly big production, before this, Zhang Feng was not well-known in the industry and had no works. Skin Change is her first work. Investment

Where did it come from?”

"Who brought those screenwriters, professional photographers, and lighting engineers to her? Could it be that she did it all by herself?"

Wu Di naturally understands this truth.

"But, isn't that the aura of being a famous director's daughter at work?"

Anyway, Zhang Feng isn't here, so to be honest, it doesn't matter.

Director Zhang laughed loudly: "How is that possible?"

"You, a young man, have really naive ideas. No wonder Lao Zhang likes you."

"Because it is Lao Zhang's daughter who comes out to make movies, her reputation is indeed greater than that of other new directors. However, the film industry is the most practical. There is real money everywhere. If you don't benefit others, you will not create value.

No one has verified your strength, so why should those elders give you face?"

There are differences between the film industry and the TV drama industry. Every day, huge dramas with burning funds are staged here. A film can be released as a finished product, or even be successfully released in the end and grab a very good schedule.

Every step of this can be said to be money and connections paving the way.

In the film industry in 2009, the entire production was still relatively barbaric. For example, some fixed positions, such as photographers, lighting technicians, etc., were packaged and rented to a certain crew to work.

In this kind of packaged group, the situation is usually formed by acquaintances, and it is difficult for outsiders to get in, no matter how capable they are.

Moreover, the relationship between master, apprentice and old friends is also very common in this kind of group. In short, for a film with a relatively large investment, such as Skin Change, even if the composition of the crew is relatively rigorous, it is still operated in a semi-workshop style.

.

As a director, what Zhang Feng can control is the cooperation between several small groups. As long as they can cooperate tacitly and produce good results, she has no interest in knowing how these groups are formed, let alone

Not going to manage it.

As long as what is shot meets the director's requirements, there won't be any problems.

However, the problem is obvious. With Lao Zhang's signature, Zhang Feng, as a new director and just starting out, can certainly attract some professionals in the industry to help.

However, this kind of selfless dedication is limited after all, and is simply not enough to support the formation of a relatively large crew.

"So, according to you, Lao Zhang also supports Zhang Feng in making movies?"

"It's just that you don't want to show it on the surface?"

Director Huang nodded: "You kid, you finally realized it."

"Actually, Zhang Feng has long known that Lao Zhang has contributed a lot to the completion of the crew and the official completion of the film. However, you also know that the relationship between the two of them has always been very contradictory, so Lao Zhang

If Zhang doesn’t say it, Xiao Zhang naturally won’t say it either.”

"However, these are some things that everyone knows very well, but no one is willing to admit it."

"This is indeed in line with their two personalities."

"What is persona?" Director Huang obviously had a poor understanding of this new vocabulary.

And Wu Di was not interested in explaining to him.

"So, in order to show off my daughter's talent, Lao Zhang showed the skin-transplanted samples to old friends like you?" This should be the process.

Director Huang also expressed his affirmation.

"So Director Huang, as a well-known director in the industry, what is your evaluation of this movie?"

"I'd like to hear your professional opinion."

In fact, this is a question that shouldn't be raised. Both Xiao Zhang and Lao Zhang gave him face and created many job opportunities for Wu Di.

Wu Di should be grateful, should shut up, and either say nothing or say nice things.

Whether the movie is good or bad, and what its level is, this is not what Wu Di should care about at all.

To take a step back, he is just an actor, and movies, from the day he was born, have been the director's art.

It is the expression of the director's aesthetic level, personal interests, emotions and will, while actors are just the director's tools.

Even for the general public, when many people see the movies they like to watch, the first thing they remember and the deepest impression are often the actors and the big stars.

However, actors still have to obey the director's instructions, and he cannot decide the direction of the movie's story or the presentation of the final product.
