Artists under the Rebirth of the Coal Boss

Chapter 61: Huayu! The inheritance of the Impure World Reincarnation Technique!!
Zhu Yilong and Zhang Youqian came back after delivering the gifts to the set. Lin Xingzhuo and Jin Shijie were eating Buddhist temple boiled lamb and drinking mocha cocoa flakes Frappuccino, chatting happily.

Zhu Yillong immediately took out a small notebook and pen, joined the topic circle, and took the initiative to ask Jin Shijie some questions about acting.

…………

In the domestic film and television circles, 61-year-old Jin Shijie is a new and special actor.

But in the drama circle of Izuo Island, Jin Shijie is the godfather of Taiwan drama and the leading figure of Taiwan modern theater.

He, Li Liqun and Gu Baoming are known as the "Three Treasures of Taibei Theater".

In 1979, Jin Shijie founded Taibei's first experimental theater troupe, the Lanling Theatre, which broke the framework of traditional drama with avant-garde ideas and marked the beginning of the Taiwan small theater movement.

"Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land", which he wrote, directed and starred in, became a milestone in the history of Chinese drama through its combination of improvisation and field research.

Jin Shijie's role as "Jiang Binliu" was hailed as a textbook-level performance, which caused a sensation in Taibei and tickets were hard to come by.

…………

In his previous life, Lin Xingzhuo reviewed the documentary "Lin Qingxia Photo Album" which was introduced by Bilibili and produced by ATV in 91 and is the only documentary about Lin Qingxia in her acting career.

It was once mentioned that due to the mistress incident, the angry marriage, and the suicide by taking medicine in Singapore, Lin Qingxia's personal career hit the lowest point, and there was once news of her retirement.

Therefore, the company wanted to secure the role of Yun Zhifan in Lanling Theatre Workshop's "Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land" to help Lin Qingxia repair her reputation.

On the one hand, the public generally believes that the drama stage is a touchstone of acting skills, and it is often associated with labels such as serious art and cultural accumulation.

Therefore, participating in a play can easily be interpreted as a positive signal of returning to one's original intention, honing one's acting skills, reforming oneself, and turning over a new leaf. Through media guidance, this can easily reverse word-of-mouth...

…………

On the other hand, there are regulatory levels in mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, Europe, the United States and other countries.

The management of dramas, musicals, small theaters, and underground theaters is extremely relaxed.

This art field has naturally become the "Paradise Lost", "City of Sin" and "Dungeon and Demons" for the dirty things and lonely ghosts in the entertainment industry.

Even if the reversal fails, it doesn’t matter. You can still parasitize and take a breath, becoming an evil wild immortal.

Make some rice and get some noodles.

Their daily life is much more comfortable than that of ordinary people...

…………

So, the agent took Lin Qingxia to visit the thatched cottage three times, but was rejected by Jin Shijie, the founder of Lanling Theatre Workshop.

In the end, it was thanks to Tsui Hark's recommendation that he successfully got the role.

This was the first successful example of the "whitewashing" approach in the ancient Chinese entertainment industry...

…………

In the future, many defeated groups in the domestic entertainment industry who want to reverse their fate and be reborn will choose this path...

For example: Liao Tianzhi starred in "The Temptation of Cheese" and "Frankenstein" after the "academic scandal"; Wen Zhang starred in "Dream Like a Dream" after the "See You on Monday" incident;
After the "One Finger" incident, Bai Qianhe participated in the musical "When Love Has Become a Thing of the Past"; CT One participated in the musical "Jesus Christ Superstar";
After being released from prison, Fang Shizu participated in "Nine to Five"; after being released from prison, Zhang Mo participated in the drama "Pillow Man";
This can be regarded as the classic inheritance of the "Immortal Reincarnation Technique" in Chinese entertainment.

........................

Zhu Yilong and Jin Shijie were discussing acting skills enthusiastically.

Zhu Yillong is a typical academic who has just entered the entertainment industry and has a hungry pursuit for acting skills.

Jin Shijie is a big shot in the drama industry, so his acting skills are naturally no problem.

He had just entered the Chinese entertainment industry, and it happened to be a time when Taiwanese capital was declining. In order to earn money for milk powder, he could only hang around in various circles in mainland China, make friends widely, and strive for more resources.

But after hearing this, Lin Xingzhuo felt like dozing off.

He knew everything about acting, but now that he was reborn, he still had to rely on his acting skills! And he had to roll!

What’s the difference between this and the time when the Film and Television Drama Department’s Review Department was just a bunch of bullies?

Besides, he himself has made great progress in his cultivation!
Every day before going to bed, he would read Zhu Yilong's life observation notes and Hai Qing's Beijing Film Academy dialogue course notes.

I slept very well! The quality is very good!

Alas, the unity of knowledge and action is as difficult as ascending to heaven...

…………

After drinking the Mocha Cocoa Chip Frappuccino, Lin Xingzhuo took out a small bag of Lin'an walnuts and started peeling and eating them.

Lin Xingzhuo actually wanted to ask for advice, but he didn't know how to start the conversation to avoid embarrassment. …………

Taibei's drama circle is full of all kinds of people, and the social atmosphere in Taiwan is even more extreme than that in Shanghai.

How to always maintain peak competitive form in an environment full of gunfire.

This is the question Lin Xingzhuo wants to ask.

…………

You know, last year, at the age of 61, while teaching at Taipei National University of the Arts, Mr. Jin got the top scorer in the Taiwan liberal arts entrance exam, a female college student from the Academy of Drama.

This year, she is still in good health and gave birth to twins.

…………

Actually, for a guy in the entertainment industry, happiness is simple. The most important thing is a good brother!
The story of "Sword Rain" explains everything.

If a man doesn't have a second wife, even if he has a vast empire, overwhelming power, wealth that rivals a nation, and unrivaled martial arts skills, what good is that?!

It is right for the Chakravartin to want one.

The problem is, he was going in the wrong direction...

Don't be superstitious! Believe in medicine!
He should find a sitter to sew one for him.

…………

According to the script of "Sword Rain", Jin Shijie plays Li Guishou.

This person's medical skills are at the BUG level.

Not only could he save Zhang Renfeng, who was hit by dozens of fatal injuries such as flying needles, fire knives, long swords, poison, and falling from a bridge, but he also resurrected him and transformed him into Jiang Asheng.

Lin Xilei, who is in her early thirties, with fair skin and an S-class figure, can be transformed completely, with her skin becoming loose and wrinkled, her breasts being shaved and bones removed, into Yang Ziqiong, who is over fifty and looks like an aunt.

It is absolutely easy to perform a KunKun operation, surpassing the experts at Aikunburg.

Li Guishou: "Either you prepare it yourself, or I'll give you a donkey. Are you happy?"

........................

Lin Xingzhuo has already begun to conceive the 3D version of "Sword Rain of the Yupu Group".

Zhu Yilong suddenly asked from the side: "Brother Zhuo, the problem you mentioned last time about the script of "Sword Rain" is the same as what Teacher Jin said."

Lin Xingzhuo, who was daydreaming, came back to his senses: "Hmm?"

Jin Shijie handed Huang Changshou a cigarette of "Military, Public and Teacher Welfare" and said, "Boss Lin also thinks there's something wrong with this script?"

Lin Xingzhuo pinched his cigarette and said, "The script is too weak. The narrative logic and emotional persuasiveness are insufficient."

"Director Su's masterpiece is 'Double Vision,' which established him as a benchmark in the field of Chinese-language thrillers. The line 'love breeds worry, love breeds fear' is a golden line in film history."

"However, the biggest common problem among these directors who have transitioned is that they tend to prioritize themes, forcing plots and forced reversals."

Jin Shijie picked up a piece of mutton and chewed it without dipping it in sauce. He said, "Indeed, in thrillers and horror films, this kind of hard reversal is not only not a problem, but can also quickly arouse the audience's interest."

"But, in a martial arts film, this kind of narrative would be very abrupt..."

Click!

Lin Xingzhuo lit a cigarette, took a puff and said, "An old eunuch without Kun Kun fantasizes that he can turn the wheel like Lao Ai and names himself the Wheel King. This is itself very magical."

Zhu Yilong whispered, "Director Su said during the recital that the Chakravartin refers to the last of the Ten Kings of Hell, the Chakravartin..."

Lin Xingzhuo said: "If it is the Ten Kings of Hell, it will not match the settings of the other characters in the play."

"The beautiful killer Zeng Jing chose an ordinary face and lived an ordinary life. The blood-vengeful Zhang Renfeng became a simple-looking delivery boy who got slapped by a customer."

"The cold-blooded killer Lei Bin is a down-to-earth instant noodle master. The magician is a down-and-out magician who is ridiculed and mocked for his dream."

"So, the powerful Black Stone leader, the Wheel King, can only be a lowly eunuch of the ninth rank who fantasizes about being reborn and turning the wheel like Lao Ai, and not some King of Hell."

Jin Shijie sighed and said, "I've mentioned this issue to Director Su."

"But he was so busy arguing with Wu Yusen about whether to call the film "Sword Rain" or "Sword Rain" that he had no time to polish the script."

Lin Xingzhuo exhaled a puff of cigarette and said, "That's fine, actually. The script has even more fatal structural flaws..."
