A 3-second shot of eating watermelon was NGed 78 times.

What's even more exaggerated is that this part of the plot was brutally cut out of the film that was finally officially released.

In other words, the young Fang Baichuan ate watermelon until he vomited in order to make a film, and made himself so disgusted that he suffered from "watermelon phobia syndrome" for several years in a row, but in the end he got nothing.

Even though it has been many years, in the talk show, the resentful Actor Fang still couldn't help complaining to the host, saying that everyone should not watch Director Ji laughing like a Maitreya Buddha when he appeared on the TV show, in fact, he is in private A cruel and tyrannical great demon, who specializes in torturing actors for entertainment.He sincerely advises those naive and ignorant young people who have just entered the industry, do not approach Ji Devil curiously because of the other party's fame, it is best to run away as far as possible, otherwise if you are targeted by Ji Devil, you will definitely die. It is a dead end.

The reporter couldn't stop laughing after being teased by Actor Fang, but Actor Fang changed the subject and began to thank Director Ji again.

Fang Baichuan told the reporter that after the filming of the scene of eating watermelon that day, director Ji cruelly told the young Fang Baichuan that you are a person who has no inspiration in filming.

The young Fang Baichuan felt very desperate, because for the filming industry, Director Ji's words almost directly sentenced his acting career to death.

So he asked Director Ji very distressed if he should give up.

Director Ji had an expression of "Are you a pig?" and asked him, do you like acting?

Fang Baichuan nodded without hesitation.If it wasn't because of love, why would he devote himself to this highly competitive industry? With his family background, he can easily do a better job.

Director Ji asked him again, if you let you film for the rest of your life, will you regret it?

Fang Baichuan thought about it seriously, then shook his head.Isn't it a very happy thing to be able to pay for your dreams?

Director Ji spread his hands and asked him in confusion, then why do you have any hesitation.

Q: What should I do if the talent is not enough?

Answer: Diligence can make up for one's weakness, exchange it with sweat.

Fang Baichuan admitted that he is not a genius, he is an ordinary person in the 99% category. He said that he can achieve what he is today, largely thanks to what Director Ji said to him back then.Perhaps, it was precisely because he had experienced the devil training from Director Ji when he first entered the industry, that kind of rigorous and serious attitude towards filming was deeply engraved in Fang Baichuan's bones, thus giving birth to the "Desperate Fang Sanlang" in the future. born.If he hadn't worked so hard, maybe there would be a question mark in bold and enlarged version whether there would still be the actor you see today.

At least six years have passed since the second collaboration between Actor Fang and Director Ji. At that time, Fang Baichuan's career was at a bottleneck stage, and the audience had already established his image. Elegant male protagonist" image, but also unable to get out of the shadow of three consecutive broken loves.Just when he was struggling the most, Director Ji appeared.

As the saying goes, no longer die in silence, just explode in silence.Perhaps it was because he had been aggrieved for too long before, so this time he simply broke his can and agreed to the invitation to play the role of the big villain BOSS.

For Fang Baichuan back then, this was a completely desperate choice.

On the one hand, it is because he has always played positive roles full of justice and love, and has never played such a bloody and brutal villain; on the other hand, it is because he always appears in front of everyone. A personable and elegant noble son, his image is handsome and unrestrained.

However, in Director Ji's suspenseful horror novel, Fang Baichuan plays the condensed essence of the whole drama - the big villain who is manipulating behind the scenes.

And this villain has a great feature:

ugly!

Ugly!

Incredibly ugly!

And it belongs to the horror type that can directly scare children into the urine as long as they appear in front of the camera.

Throughout the film, half of Fang Baichuan's time plays the role of a horrible monster whose face has been disfigured by fire, while in the other half of the time, he will put on a bloody new human skin every day, and he is still the kind who just came from It was taken out of the washing machine, and all the skin was wrinkled into a hideous monster.

In the film, there are only two handsome shots of Fang Baichuan, one is at the very beginning of the film, before his character is framed by his girlfriend, he goes home happily with a bouquet of calla lilies; It is at the end of the whole story that all the bad guys got their due punishment. After he shot himself, his soul came out of his body, and in the peaceful orange light, he flew into the sky with a relieved smile on his face.

There is no doubt that Fang Baichuan was brutally raped by Director Ji again during filming.

But it was also from this drama that he broke free from the burden of idols that he couldn't get rid of before, and successfully achieved a radical transformation, thus squeezing into the ranks of powerful factions in one fell swoop.Not only did he win the Best Supporting Actor Award that year for this film, but he also won the title of Best Actor today because of his role in another director Ji's work just one year later.

In a word, Ji Dao has shaped today's actor Fang in a certain sense. Fang Yingdi said that Ji Dao is his "fated nobleman" and "the father of rebirth in film and television career".

But today, this super powerful person actually only exchanged a few casual words with Yingdi Fang, and then left him alone, staring at me with piercing eyes, without saying a word for a long time.

Dear friends, what should I do if I suddenly feel better?

After 5 minutes, I was more relaxed.

Because Director Ji Zongming held my hand tightly and said with tears in his eyes: "Like! Really like! You and your mother are printed out of the same mold!" He patted my face excitedly Shoulder, "Jiaming, do you know that I actually grew up watching your mother's movies. The reason why I became involved in the film industry is largely because I watched your mother's 1986 movie "Troubled Times" Jade Ring."

I:"……"

What?

"Back when Baichuan said he knew you, and volunteered to go to Italy to persuade you, I didn't really have high hopes, but I didn't expect you to come." Director Ji excitedly squeezed my hand heavily , "Thank you! Thank you very much! Although "The Legend of the Demon Fox of the Tang Dynasty" is a tribute to your mother's classic work 30 years ago, it is really amazing to be able to successfully invite Ms. Ouyang's son to play the same role as her. It is my great honor.”

I:"……"

Excuse me, Comrade Director, can we pause for a moment?

The amount of information is too much, and my head can't handle it temporarily.

Can you let me save a file first?

【285】

Remember my "sick sore throat so I can't talk" setup.

Therefore, although the inner me at this moment has already been tortured by countless doubts and covered my face with my hands, posing in the shape of the classic painting "The Scream" by the Norwegian painter Munch, in reality, I am still calm and composed, with my face always Keep the "Mona Lisa Smile".

Generally speaking, if no one speaks up, it is difficult to carry on the conversation for a long time.

But fortunately, Director Ji's gold medal commentary skills have been unlocked in advance, so as long as his "student"——me, keeps looking at him with longing eyes, then even if I don't say a word from the beginning to the end, He will also automatically enter the anxious state of the famous teacher's lectures of "the last 5 days of the college entrance examination", sending me a large amount of information at a super fast speed of 120 per minute, wishing to stuff all the knowledge stored in his stomach into my mouth.

So, I began to gradually understand a...uh...I don't know how other people will interpret what Director Ji said, but at least in my opinion, the whole story probably needs to be described with the word "wonderful".

Of course, if it’s from Director Ji’s point of view, this is an “inspirational” chicken soup story about a poor boy chasing his dream for 30 years and finally becoming a legendary master in the film industry.

It’s just that I don’t have the slightest appetite for chicken soup today. I just want to go to the kitchen and take off the lid of the casserole, fish out the medicine dregs sunk in the bottom, and see what’s the truth inside.

So, what did Director Ji tell me in the 25-minute "touching heart"?

I can tell you responsibly that 80% of the content is nonsense.If I had to summarize it, it would be about how hard he was back then, how bad the environment was, how scumbag his colleagues were, how he fought and failed repeatedly, and fought repeatedly...

It’s not that Director Ji’s words are not touching, but I’ve heard too many similar themes. The man who never sleeps in the small TV in the airport bookstore is always trying to sell to passing passengers impassionedly. Similar success theory-but then again, if you are really a successful person, why do you need to go out of your way just to sell a set of DVDs?

In any case, this part of the content has nothing to do with today's topic, so let's fast forward to X8 and skip directly.Then cut off the red tape in the remaining 20% ​​of the content, and finally streamline and extract the content as follows.

*********The following is Director Ji·Memories from 30 years ago**************

Let's turn the clock forward and go back to an ordinary weekend in the late summer of 1986.

In the No. 22 Normal Middle School in a small town, Ji Zongming, a [-]-year-old Chinese teacher, finally plucked up the courage to invite another young female teacher from the same school to have dinner and watch a movie.And the other party agreed.

Teacher Ji was inexplicably excited, because in the conservative environment at the time, although they didn't say anything to each other, the female teacher's nod was almost a tacit agreement that "I also have a crush on you". established fact.

Then, on that sweltering hot weekend, the two on their first date held hands shyly without any psychological defenses, and walked into that humble small movie theater together.

150 minutes passed.

The movie is over.

The couple leaves the cinema.

They said goodbye to each other calmly.

Everything looks normal.

Everything seems to be the same as before.

However, because of this short 150 minutes, the life trajectories of the two people have completely changed.
