It has been nearly a year since the preparation of the "Great Power Player" project. It can be said that all aspects have been well prepared. Therefore, after the official start-up, everything has been progressing smoothly.

Well, at least in the opinion of the layman Li Xiangping, it was quite smooth.

After he arrived in Hengdian, everyone might be looking after him as a rookie. The filming ranged from easy to difficult. In other words, they should first pick some of the simplest shots and then gradually increase the difficulty, and called it asking him to "get into the role as soon as possible". Everyone arranged the entire shooting plan in this way.

In the whole drama, except for a few starring actors, everyone is considered an old actor. With sufficient preparation and sufficient funds, this is a CCTV drama, and it is a big show, which leads to extremely fast shooting speeds of half a month after the filming starts. According to the original plan, Li Xiangping's scenes will take about two months to shoot, but now Director Qiu estimates that he thinks it may take less than two months, at most one and a half months to 50 days, and Li Xiangping can finish the filming and leave.

Not only was the filming smooth, Li Xiangping's performance also received great praise. Whether it was the crew members or real performing artists like Pu Cunxin and Wu Gang, they were surprised by Li Xiangping's performance and believed that he had performed the chess saint Shi Xiangxia alive.

Faced with the praise that flocked to him, Li Xiangping felt proud. He thought that was, how could my buddy perform badly? I am now playing my own plug-in.

Although since Lao Shi came to him, he only heard the sound but did not see him, even Li Xiangping himself didn't know when it started. Now when he heard Lao Shi's voice, Li Xiangping would immediately express his words and deeds based on his speed, tone, and his words.

To be honest, Li Xiangping is performing according to this feeling.

In this case, it would be strange if Li Xiangping thought he was not praised. After all, his performance method may be unique. What kind of experience school and method school may be a scumbag in front of his performance method.

Of course, while Li Xiangping was rewarded with others for praise, there was no regret at all. His biggest regret was that Zhao Daokai, the actor who played Fan Xiping, received higher evaluations than Li Xiangping.

Since the start of the filming, everyone has praised Zhao Daokai almost from the first shot, believing that his camera feels full and has a relaxed state that professional actors are rare.

Director Qiu even said it intentionally or unintentionally several times. He said that after seeing Zhao Daokai's performance, he couldn't help but want to increase Fan Xiping's scenes, and also took a lot of shots of Zhao Daokai.

As a pure layman, Li Xiangping actually doesn't know what "sensation of lens" means. He just observes his best friend based on his own feelings. He can't figure out how this guy's performance is even better if he looks left and right? Why are so many people flattering him?

Later, when he thought of Zhao Daokai's identity, he was Zhao Jiadong's own son, Li Xiangping instantly balanced, because he guessed that everyone was not convenient to flatter Zhao Jiadong for the sake of Zhao Jiadong's face, so he turned to flatter Zhao Daokai.

"...Well, that's what it is. The bullshit artist is actually a bunch of flatterers..."

It was July 20th. After filming the scene for a day and Zhao Daokai reaped a lot of praise again, Li Xiangping thought indignantly.

But at this time, Li Xiangping was not ready to be angry because now, his shooting will be suspended. The annual "Asian Cup" has arrived. As the defending champion, he still needs to participate in this competition.

The "Asian Cup" was held in the three countries of China, Japan and South Korea. This year, it was the turn to go to Japan to compete again. Early the next morning, Zhao Jiadong arrived at the crew station:

"Xiangping, are you ready? If there is nothing else, let's go together."

Li Xiangping was stunned at first when he heard this, but when he saw that several people from the crew were also preparing, he instantly realized that in this "big power player", about half of the episode was about Japanese Go. They should just want to take advantage of their protagonist's absence to complete the filming in Japan.

"Xiangping, how many days will you go this time?"

Li Xiangping replied: "It will take about 5 days to go on the road, and there will be 3 rounds of the Asian Cup, and I will play two games at most, so I will last for five days."

Zhao Jiadong nodded and said, "Five days are enough. In this way, Xiangping, after you arrive in Japan, you can go to the competition with peace of mind. We will contact the shooting ourselves. If you need it, we will contact you."

Li Xiangping nodded after hearing this. The Japanese plot must have nothing to do with Shi Xiangxia, so Li Xiangping does not need to act in Japan. In addition, Zhao Jiadong must have contacted him in advance in advance when filming abroad. He could not have been on the road in a hurry. Therefore, what he said about "necessity" depends on whether they will have some contact with the Japanese Go world when they go filming this time.

However, it is still unknown whether Zhao Jiadong's tone will cause contact, so he said "if necessary."

After arriving in Japan, Li Xiangping and the crew broke up temporarily. Zhao Jiadong and his team went to Japan's Fuji TV to contact the filming. Li Xiangping met with the Chinese delegation and put their minds back to this small mini international event.

Since Li Xiangping is the defending champion, there are a total of three Chinese chess players participating in the "Asian Cup" this time. In addition to Li Xiangping, the other two are Kong Erjie and Sheikh. Among them, Sheikh is the champion of this year's "CCTV Cup" and Kong Erjie is the runner-up of the "CCTV Cup". They won the entry sheet with this record.

In addition, the head of the Chinese delegation this time was the leader of the team. In addition, considering the shooting of the "big power player", Wang Yi, director of the Foreign Affairs Department of the Chess Academy, also accompanied him.

After everyone gathered, Wang Yi first hugged Li Xiangping in an exaggerated way, and said that he hadn't seen Li Xiangping some days. He missed him in his heart. Then he started gossiping, asking about Li Xiangping's situation in Hengdian, asking about the actresses in the crew, asking whether the actresses were beautiful. Finally, he even asked whether Li Xiangping had used the convenience of the first male lead and to the unspoken rules of the actresses.

Li Xiangping was both angry and funny. After listening to Wang Yi’s joke, he yelled:

"Ha Wangmen, you are an amateur now. The actors still want to make unspoken rules? You are really thinking too much. How is this possible? Even the first protagonist cannot have this opportunity. This is basically the creature at the bottom of the chain of contempt."

"The bottom of the contempt chain?"

Seeing Wang Yi looking half-believing and half-doubted, Li Xiangping had to give him some popular science and tell him that if there was really an actress in a crew and she wanted to "sleep in the sleeping server" the entire crew, then the order was basically like this:

First, there are investors or producers, commonly known as funder fathers, next is director, then the assistant director and other powerful figures...

"Wang Bo, I tell you, in the contempt chain of unspoken rules, actors really have no human rights, they are really at the bottom of the contempt chain. If the actress is really in line with the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry, she would rather go to the lighting technician of the sleeping server crew or the makeup artist of the sleeping server crew than to attack the male actor. Why? Because the makeup artist can at least provide some help in the style and dress her up beautifully. The lighting technician can at least provide some help to her during the filming and make her beautiful. On the other hand, what can the male actor give her? Can she help her improve her acting skills? Let her deepen her feeling of falling in love? But now the question is: If an actress wants to rely on unspoken rules, how can she care about her acting skills? Wang Bo, don't you?"

Wang Yi was stunned by Li Xiangping's words:

"That's how? I've gained more knowledge. Today I've gained more knowledge..."

Team Leader Hua was still listening with a smile at the beginning of the chat between the two, but when Li Xiangping said it became more and more outrageous, Team Leader Hua was a little unable to listen. He thought to himself that Xiangping was so good that she had only filmed a drama for less than half a month, and her thoughts became so dirty. At the same time, Team Leader Hua was also glad that Li Xiangping agreed that this was his first and last drama, otherwise he would not know what he would have fallen into if he filmed a few more movies.

"Well, OK, the first round draw will start soon... This Xiangping, although you don't want to draw lots in the first round, just go with us. After all, this is the opening ceremony. Maybe someone will ask you, the defending champion, to say a few words."

After arriving at the venue, Li Xiangping learned that Japan was participating in the competition this time, Keigo Yamashita and Yuta Inyama. As for the Korean team, one of them was Cui Du, and the other one, Li Xiangping only realized that Hong Zhixing was sixth rank, a backbone in South Korea these days.

It is obvious that such a lineup is weak overall and cannot represent the highest level in today's chess world.

The Japanese side may have seen this, so during the lottery ceremony, they did not invite Li Xiangping to "say a few words".

The first round of the second day started, with Kong Erjie VS Yamashita, Sheikh VS Hong Xingzhi, and Japanese Komatsu Iyama met Korean chess player Cui Du.

In the end, Kong Erjie won, Hong Xingzhi won, and Cui Du won.

The second round became the standard China-Korea confrontation. The lottery was immediately held that night, and Li Xiangping drew Hong Xingzhi, Kong Er and Cui Du's hands together.

"Xiangping, how about I let this game?"

"Ah?! Haha OK, I haven't practiced chess for half a month. Brother Ding'an wants to come, so come."

Faced with such an opponent, Li Xiangping certainly would not have the will of Lao Shi.

There is no suspense in the first game. In the game against Hong Liudan, Lao Shi once again showed his original style, which is the style of "like a giant soaking in the sea, subtle and profound, and like an old horse galloping without losing steps", and defeating the opponent in a nearly crushing way.

Even if Li Xiangping wins this game, he will enter the finals again, and he has won two consecutive championships in the previous "Asian Cup". If he wins another set, he will win another three consecutive championships.

In the final, Li Xiangping encountered his compatriot Kong Erjie.

It is precisely because he is a compatriot that when Lao Shi said he wanted to enjoy the chess, Li Xiangping agreed without saying a word.

There is still no suspense in the finals.

However, in this game, Lao Shi's style changed. He showed an extremely deep understanding of "dog moves" and completely crushed his opponent in the overall situation.

After watching it, Li Xiangping was deeply moved. Everyone said that Kong Erjie was the "most professional chess player", but in Li Xiangping's mind, under the new system of "dog tricks", only his own plug-in can afford this title.

It is precisely because Li Xiangping thought so that on the way home, he was still sighing to his plug-in:

"Oh, I said Brother Ding'an, everyone in the world said that I am the number one in the world. In fact, I only know that today's chess world is not me, you are the real number one in the world. I didn't expect that in just over a year, I was thrown away so far by you."

"Hehe, you are polite to me, my friend Xiangping, you are just temporarily distracted. I believe that when you return from filming this movie, you won't be able to surpass me in a long time."

"Haha, hope so..."

After taking a break from his busy schedule to participate in the "Asian Cup", Li Xiangping re-entered the shooting of the "big power player". 1603453444
