Chapter 9: Spotlight-stealing skills! "I still have many advantages."Du Sheng thought for a moment and nodded from time to time. On the one hand, he is quite confident in his acting skills (plus points). Secondly, compared with competitors such as Qiu Qing, his other advantage is that he can predict the future. Knowing the pros and cons of this version of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" can help you avoid mistakes in advance. Thirdly, thanks to having practiced martial arts since childhood and having played many stunt doubles, his martial arts and action skills are definitely superior, allowing him to stick closer to the details of the original work, and the fighting scenes are more realistic and smooth. After all, Murong Fu himself is proficient in 17 kinds of martial arts, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a first-class master. There are many martial arts action scenes in the drama. This is not the era where traffic is dominant, and everything is very particular. If we use a loose-fitting gun to shoot the fighting scenes, not only will the audience not be able to watch it, but even the crew and investors will probably be dissatisfied. After all, Zhang Da Huzi’s previous version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes had become a laughing stock in terms of casting. This time, there will be some consideration.
The fourth aspect is Du Sheng’s personal speculation. The reason why Ju Jueliang recommended him to play Murong Fu, besides complying with the wishes of the investors, was this not also a microcosm of the struggle for power among several directors in the crew? As long as you can pry open a corner, the impact of these factors will be great. With this in mind, Du Sheng directly spent several thousand reputation points to max out his acting skills in terms of voice, stage, appearance and performance. In an instant, there was a great improvement in the ability to express emotion, immerse oneself in the opponent's perspective, perceive the opponent's emotions, imagination and concentration. Acting Level 2/Green: (MAX/10000) Voice, stage, shape, and performance each reach the maximum value of 2500. Just one finishing touch away from reaching perfection. Although I am not as good as those 'drama maniacs', I believe I am no worse than those young artists who have starred in several popular and well-received dramas. However, if you want to continue to improve, you have to raise your skill rating to the blue level. Du Sheng glanced at the reputation value of less than three thousand left and shook his head slightly. There was no need for this for the time being. He focused his attention on the raffle wheel. As expected, there was a big 1 in the middle of the roulette wheel. Continuously improve skills, obtained from comprehensive evaluation F → F + reward. The number of draws per year has also increased by 3, to 1/12. Around the roulette wheel, there are nineteen cards of different sizes, in shades of purple, blue, green, white and grey. There is undoubtedly a purple item in there, but the rating is too low, and the probability is... However, the lottery given for upgrading is slightly different from the lottery obtained from filming. The prizes given by the former are a mixture of skills or objects that one has come into contact with in past and present lives, while the latter are abilities, objects or skills that come with the role-playing. "Draw a time bomb!" Du Sheng read the introduction and recited to himself.
The predecessor once moved bombs in an anti-Japanese war crew. In order to reject the 50-cent special effects, the director used the real thing! If any director doesn’t invite me to make a movie in the future, I will just bomb his house. As for whether it will cause trouble... We have to ask the director what he did to cause such a crime. After all, this thing is not bought, and Skynet surveillance is not yet complete, so there are no clues to investigate. "lottery!" Du Sheng put away his scattered thoughts, and as his mind moved, the cards on the roulette wheel spun rapidly counterclockwise. Brush brush! Then seven cards exploded, like a stream of light that froze in place. [Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill of "Action Guidance Quick Learning"] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Body Posture (Green) skill.] (Note: As a qualified artist, body posture is a compulsory course)] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining the skill "Bajiquan" (blue)! ] [Congratulations to the host for winning the song "The Hard Sutra (Mandarin Version)" Note: There is no possibility of duplication of songs and scripts won in the lottery, please feel free to use them.] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining the instrument playing skill (green)! ] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Language Proficiency Card (Green)! (Note: Thai, Vietnamese, Cantonese, English, Cambodian (choose two from five)] [Congratulations to the host for obtaining the script "The Rise of Crown Princess"] After the lottery was over, six phantoms turned into streams of light and automatically converged towards the body. Du Sheng only felt that the vast knowledge, skills, and techniques, etc., turned into a torrent and poured into his mind. Movement guidance, body posture, Bajiquan, song scores and other related applications and insights all came one after another... The impact of that knowledge made his head buzz and his whole body feel numb and itchy. It was not until a long time that Du Sheng gradually absorbed this blessing from heaven. "Although I didn't get the time bomb, these seven items are very useful!" Du Sheng nodded with satisfaction. Skills such as action guidance, body shape and camera sense have already begun to be integrated. Most of them were designs and rehearsals related to chasing, car crashing, climbing, jumping, blasting, martial arts moves, etc., which gave him a lot of feelings. The next level up for stuntmen is action director. Du Sheng guessed that this was probably due to the skills instilled by his predecessor's adoptive father.
Apart from anything else, I will be able to better control the camera when filming in the future, and even achieve what is commonly known as "stealing the spotlight"! At worst, if you have the skill of action director and you can't continue to be an artist in the future, you can definitely work behind the scenes. Although Bajiquan is repeated, as the first blue skill, it is naturally more impressive. After all, green can only be upgraded to Lv2, but this time it is directly covered and can be upgraded to Lv3. In addition, the tingling sensation in the body just now should be its strengthening effect. Du Sheng felt that his fists, elbows, knees and calves all had calluses. Moreover, he is much stronger and his muscles are more obvious. It seems to have the effect of enhancing physical fitness? In order to improve the overall evaluation in the future, you can put some effort into this aspect! "Don't you have to practice the music scores and instrument playing techniques yourself?" Du Sheng looked at the next one with a hint of joy: "This is good, I like this one!" Simple, rough and direct, you will be able to use it once you get started. Although it's just a glimpse of the basics, it's better than those illiterate people. Besides, singing is his livelihood, so the more the better. Du Sheng's gaze finally fell on the lottery interface, on which there was a green card. Language Proficiency Card (Green) Note: Thai, Vietnamese, Cantonese, English, Cambodian (choose two from five) Based on the principles of practicality, applicability and universality, Du Sheng excluded Cambodian, Vietnamese and Thai one by one. As the choice was made, another warm current flowed into my mind, and countless knowledge was integrated. "Great, life is full of hope!" "Sorry, I'm a policeman!" A series of words came out, and the surroundings were filled with joy. People who didn’t know the truth thought that this guy was mentally ill. Du Sheng enjoyed himself for a while before he calmed down happily. The reason for choosing these two languages is actually to keep up with reality. Today, as the world's only superpower, where even translators are a scarce resource, it is a disadvantage not to know English. And if I focus on being an artist in the future, this aspect will also be useful. As for Cantonese, it’s similar. The Hong Kong circle is still the trend at the moment. Whether it is investment, directors, producers, popular artists, etc., many of them come from Hong Kong. In the past few years, artists such as Wu Jing and baby even went to the Hong Kong circle to mix in, which shows that the influence is still there.
Regardless of the right and wrong, or whether the Hong Kong circle will end soon, having one more skill at hand means one more advantage. (End of this chapter)
