Chapter 1894 Chapter 1896 [Thousands of lives are easy to get, but one ugliness is hard to find]
Xiang Nan then asked last year's Asian sister champion Weng Hong for coffee.
"It's no wonder that Ms. Weng was the champion of the Asian sister last year. She is really petite and exquisite." He praised with a smile.
Weng Hong's appearance is not top-notch among the stars in Xiangjiang, there are many actresses with higher appearance than her.
Not to mention Lin Qingxia, Guan Zhilin, Li Jiaxin, Wang Yixian, Qiu Shuzhen and other great beauties, even Ye Zimei, Chen Farong, Qiu Yueqing, Li Lizhen, Yuan Jieying and others are not inferior to her.
The key is her temperament, which is pure, innocent, graceful and moving, which makes her stand out among the beauties. This probably has something to do with her learning dance since she was a child.
"Thank you, Mr. Ning." Weng Hong accepted Xiang Nan's compliment with a smile.
"I think you have great potential to become popular, so work hard." Xiang Nan laughed again.
"Mr. Ning, you have always had a discerning eye. You are known as the golden master, can you give me some advice on how to become popular?" Weng Hong asked curiously.
She has always wanted to be popular, otherwise, she would not have worked hard and practiced dancing for so many years. So even though it's only been a year since her debut, she can't wait.
"With all due respect, Xiangjiang has no shortage of any kind of actress. Pure, sexual, beautiful, temperamental, vase beauty, acting school, star... Count each type of actress at random, at least seven or eight One. As a rookie, it's really not easy for you to stand out." Xiang Nan analyzed.
The Xiangjiang entertainment circle is now the most prosperous time, it is really a gathering of stars and talents. Unlike thirty years later, it is difficult for Xiangjiang entertainment industry to introduce a new star.
"Then tell me, what should I do?" Weng Hong asked hastily.
She knew Xiang Nan was telling the truth. The Xiangjiang entertainment industry is now seriously saturated with talents. Just TVB and ATV, there are countless beauties who can't make it to the top.
For example, Zeng Huaqian, Lan Jieying, Zhou Haimei, Li Meixian, Shao Meiqi from TVB, Li Yanshan, Ye Yuqing, Wan Qiwen from ATV...
As for the competition in the film industry, the pressure is even greater. With Lin Qingxia, Wang Yixian, Zhong Chuhong, Guan Zhilin, Anita Mui, Zheng Yuling and others pressing down, newcomers have no chance to stand out.
The majestic champion of Miss Hong Kong, Li Jiaxin, has stunning beauty, and she is still supporting Wang Taoxian in "A Chinese Ghost Story 2". Others are not as beautiful and famous as her, so the fate can only be worse.
…
"I don't know, are you willing to make sacrifices?" Xiang Nan looked at Weng Hong and asked.
Weng Hong was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Mr. Ning, I belong to you now."
Xiang Nan was taken aback, then waved his hands and smiled, "No, you misunderstood, I said sacrifice, not that sacrifice. What I mean is, in terms of image, are you willing to sacrifice a little and take the comedy route?"
"What do you mean?" Weng Hong asked puzzled.
"It's very simple. It is said that a thousand lives are easy to get, but an ugly one is hard to find. The same is true for actresses." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Now the female comedians in Xiangjiang count on their fingers, only Wu Junru, Zheng Yuling, Xiao Fangfang Waiting for a few people, it can be said to be quite scarce. If you want to become popular, you might as well try the funny route.”
"So that's how it is." Weng Hong suddenly realized that she might have made a mistake, but she didn't have time to be embarrassed, so she immediately asked for advice, "Come on the funny route, can I?"
"I think it's feasible." Xiang Nan nodded.
Weng Hong's appearance is more classic and more temperamental. Such a person is more likely to produce results when he is funny.
Because serious people do unscrupulous things, which is one of the means of being funny.
For example, Luo Jiaying used to be a veteran of Cantonese opera, and he used to sing Wen Wusheng. He was meticulous on stage and had an extremely decent image. But the more this is the case, the easier it is for him to shine when he is funny.
Whenever you read "A Chinese Journey to the West" and mention Tang Seng again, it is his ecstatic "onlyyou".
There is also Wu Junru, her father is Xia Chunqiu, a TV host, who lived in a villa since she was a child, and took a Mercedes when she went out, an authentic young lady. From "The Thirteenth Sister of Hong Xing", it can also be seen that she herself is also very good-looking.
But it was such a beautiful young lady who blatantly picked her nose on the screen, which immediately caused a sensation in Xiangjiang and caused a strong comedy effect, so she became a hit.
In her acting career, Weng Hong also tried some funny roles, such as the unruly cousin in "Dancing with the Dragon", Meng Ruyi in "The Girl Patrol", etc., and her performance was very eye-catching, but unfortunately she didn't go deep.
In fact, if she is willing to let go of her image and go for the comedy route, there is an 80% chance that she will become popular.
On the contrary, if she can't let go, I'm afraid it will be impossible to act in comedy in the future. Because in the 1990s, all the stars in Xiangjiang began to try to be funny.
Lin Qingxia, Wang Haoxian, Zhang Manyu, and Liu Jialing all broke through their self-image in "East and West", "Chasing Boys", and "Rose Rose I Love You", which are crazy and funny.
Qiu Shuzhen also played a lot of funny scenes in "The Deer and Ding Tale" and "New Shaolin Five Ancestors", and Guan Zhilin also starred in "Happy Events in the Flower Field" and "Laughing Eight Immortals" and other comedies, in which she has subversive performances.
Therefore, even the female comedian route, if you don’t hurry up and go, there will be no place to go in the future.
Like a restricted-rated star, Chen Yalun was the first person to eat crabs, and became popular immediately. It has attracted other female artists who want to be popular, and they have invested in this field one after another. When it was Ye Zimei's turn, if it wasn't for her hot body, it would be difficult to get ahead.
Now, Xiangjiang has more restricted-rated actresses, and there will be more in the future, because Xiangjiang films are about to enter a period of recession.
On the one hand, it is because Taiwan has lifted restrictions on foreign language films, and Hollywood movies can be introduced to Taiwan without restriction. As a result, Xiangjiang Films lost its largest market.
On the one hand, it is because of the improvement of computer special effects technology that the audio-visual effects of Hollywood blockbusters have reached a new height. Compared with it, Xiangjiang movies are too rustic, which also leads to the loss of a large number of audiences.
When the market is depressed, artists can do anything to make money.
…
"Then I'll give it a try." Seeing what Xiang Nan said, Weng Hong nodded and said.
Xiang Nan has always been very good at selecting and cultivating artists, and he has made many artists famous.
Such as Hollywood Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Brad Pitt, John Niederp, Kevin Costner and so on.
Before they were with Xiang Nan, they were not even third-tier, but now they are top-notch first-tier male stars. This is Xiang Nan's strength.
So he thinks he is suitable for the funny route, so he is probably right.
"Okay, we at Real Kung Fu Films definitely welcome you." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled, "Next, let's talk about another kind of sacrifice~"
