    " Shi Xiaolong's feelings towards his family were not formed in one or two days, but accumulated over time. Therefore, it was not something that Yuan Qiaoqiao could resolve with just a few words.

    He was very moved when he felt Yuan Qiaoqiao's unadulterated care; after finally crying and begging and interceding with other relatives at home, he was finally able to go to school, but within two weeks, he came to film again  In his depressed mood, he now had the urge to express his deepest thoughts.

    Leaning back on the sofa and looking up at the ceiling, Shi Xiaolong said with a faint expression: "Sister Qiaoqiao, do you know what my biggest resentment towards my father is?"

    Without her needing to answer, he revealed himself: "Not only did he deprive me of my childhood and prevent me from going to school, but he also left me alone on the set and invited a Shaolin boxer with profound kung fu skills to follow me and guide me in martial arts.  , I hired a teacher to teach me cultural knowledge, but I never thought of asking my relatives to come to the set to accompany me and look after me.

    My father and mother can't come because they have to manage their own martial arts school; my grandparents can't come because they are old and can't follow me all over the world. It's too hard and my body may not be able to support it; my sister is still young.  , He couldn¡¯t even take care of himself, and he couldn¡¯t take care of me at all, so he couldn¡¯t come;¡­ Therefore, the person who followed me was a hired assistant.

    ??From the time I made my first movie when I was five years old to watching it now, until now.  That's all, but during this period, he almost never came to the set to visit, nor did he allow other family members to come. And I was also busy, traveling to various crews almost all year round. My contact with my family was all through the cold  phone number.

    It might as well be when I was studying in the Shaolin Temple. Although I didn¡¯t see my father much at that time, I could see my mother, grandparents and sister from time to time.

    ¡°The reason he didn¡¯t come to see me or let my family come was that he was afraid of seeing me suffering on the set and being soft-hearted, which would delay my future¡±

    As he talked, tears flowed down the corners of his eyes involuntarily. Shi Xiaolong stretched out his hand to cover his eyes and said in a low voice: "Every time I am on the set, I see other child actors with their families by their side.  , I will always have the idea that I am actually an abandoned child.

    So, sometimes, when I read reports or hear from relatives and friends, he actually uses me as a ¡®money-making tool¡¯, and I even think they are right.

    So when my 'money tree' was finally about to run out of money, I was in a very good mood. So when my father helped me take on the role of Shaobao, when I first learned about the news, I had a torch.  The idea that the crew was burned.  "

    After listening to his heartfelt words, even with her two lives of experience, Yuan Qiaoqiao could understand his father's choice to let him work hard and give up schooling, but she could not agree with him joining the group to film without his family by his side.  , even if you hire an assistant to take care of him with a high salary, it won't work, because for children, the care of relatives and the company of outsiders are different.

    After a long silence, Yuan Qiaoqiao broke the silence, "Have you ever thought about what you want to do in the future?"

    Shi Xiaolong was stunned by the question, and after a long while he said: "I should still continue filming, whether it is popular or not.

    Even though I had a group of teachers to teach me, I couldn't balance my studies with filming. Therefore, I had to study cultural classes with one thing or another, which was not systematic at all.

    Except for the Chinese course, which required me to read scripts and analyze characters, I was pretty good at it. I had never taken other courses such as nature, art, thinking, etc. I only learned addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in mathematics, which was at the level of the third grade of elementary school.  , As for English, I can barely recognize all twenty-six letters now.

    With my level of education, what else can I do if I don¡¯t make movies?  "

    Yuan Qiaoqiao has never seen his films as an adult, but has seen many of his films before he was a minor, and knows that he is not a talented actor.  If the talent is average, then the actor's acting skills largely depend on his level of education, but this is a shortcoming for him who has received almost no systematic school education.

    Thinking of what he said before about burning down the crew, she was surprised and said, "Don't you like filming? Why do you still want to continue doing this?"

    Understanding the hidden lines in her words, Shi Xiaolong adjusted his sitting posture and said: "I just don't like some of my father's practices. When it comes to filming, I can't say whether I like it or not.

    As I said just now, if I don¡¯t do this, what can I do?  Due to academic issues, I am unable to get involved in most industries, and I am also afraid of being cheated and cheated. No matter what this industry is, at least I am familiar with it, and the chance of being deceived is relatively small.  "

    ¡°So if you continue filming, do you have any plans for your acting career?¡±

    After hesitating for a moment, Shi Xiaolong thought for a while and said: "I didn't think so far-term, orI have made plans, but my idols are Cheng Long and Jet Li. I once dreamed of entering Hollywood as a kung fu star like them.  "

    Afraid that Yuan Qiaoqiao would misunderstand, he hurriedly explained: "But that's just a fantasy of mine. I don't regard it as a goal to achieve. Do you understand what I mean?"

    "I understand, just like people love to daydream, thinking about pie in the sky and making a fortune, but they know that the possibility of realizing it is very slim, but they still can't stop thinking about it."

    Although it is just a fantasy now, it is also a seed that will one day take root and sprout here in Shi Xiaolong.

    But Yuan Qiaoqiao, who knows the direction of the industry in the next twenty years, knows how declining the market for kung fu movies will be in the future: none of the TV series leave a deep impression on people, and most of the movies are well received but not popular; the TV series have low ratings.  , it is difficult for a movie to make back its money at the box office, and it is not easy to win the favor of capital.

    Several kung fu artists in the industry, Cheng Long and Jet Li, who are famous at home and abroad, are already old, and they no longer have a foothold in Hollywood.

    Cheng Long and his family continue to work hard in the film industry. Unfortunately, the works produced in recent years are very average in terms of box office and reputation.

    Li Lianjie is already showing signs of retirement.

    Donnie Yen enjoyed a brief moment of glory with the movie "Ip Man" series, and then fell back into mediocrity.

    Although Zhang Jin won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for "The Grandmaster", he did not have any good film and television resources. He and his wife Cai Shaofen appeared in various variety shows, almost becoming a variety show star.

    Wu Jing made a comeback with the movie "Wolf Warrior" series and jumped into the front line, but the path he took was not that of a pure kung fu star. She didn't think Shi Xiaolong could learn it.

    Thinking that Shi Xiaolong will not be very handsome when he grows up, but at least he will not become disabled, Yuan Qiaoqiao asked tentatively: "Have you ever thought about going to an acting school?"

    Before he could speak, she hurriedly said: "I know your cultural level is low, but the admission score of the acting school is not high, and there are still several years before you can apply. If you work hard from now on, it is still possible to get in.  .¡±

    Shi Xiaolong disagreed and said: "Does it make sense for me to go to acting school? What can it teach me? It's not that it's not good, but I have my own experience in acting." Once the mindset is fixed, it is difficult to change it.

    "At least it can expand your network."

    Yuan Qiaoqiao warned him: "Don't talk about the connections you made when you were a child star. Child stars and regular artists in the industry are two different things. When you become an adult, if you take a role that cannot leave the industry, this society is very realistic. Then you are a child."  Most of the connections I made during my time there will be wasted.¡±

    If attending an acting school is useless, then why do so many well-known child stars in later generations, as well as idols from big and small talent shows, choose to attend acting schools?

    Don¡¯t tell her it¡¯s just for gold plating. If there are not enough benefits, how can the company and their agents be willing to bear the financial loss and let them go to acting school?

    Shi Xiaolong cannot compare with her. She can not go to acting school because she not only has Sister Kuan, a gold medal agent, but also has two film and television companies, Xinyu and Xinyuan, to support her, and she also has the Huang family.  With the blessing of background, and because of the recommendation of Grandpa Huang, the movie "Going Home for the New Year" starring in her starring role was shortlisted for the Venice International Film Festival and was recognized by industry insiders. Therefore, what she lacks now is actually the audience, which is public recognition.  Spend.

    Shi Xiaolong did not listen to her words, and retorted unconvincingly: "There are many actors with non-major backgrounds in the industry, and it doesn't hinder them from getting resources to become popular."

    Yuan Qiaoqiao sighed and said: "That's because either they are good at life and have high emotional intelligence; or they have a good team behind them; or they are strong enough and their acting skills are good enough; or they have background support or financial support; or they are  ¡­¡­"what do you have?

    The first movie he starred in when he was five years old became a hit. Although his career was indeed declining before he took the role of Shaobao, he actually didn't realize this because there were still roles coming to him, but he always helped him to accept them.  The play's father saw it from the quality of the script, but didn't tell him, so Shi Xiaolong had almost no sense of crisis in his heart at this time, so he didn't listen to her words.

    Seeing Shi Xiaolong's disapproval, Yuan Qiaoqiao knew that for a popular child star like him who had always been praised before, if he was not allowed to experience the cruelty of the industry for himself, what would she say to him here?  It's no use.

    Because he had to practice martial arts and learn kung fu, he was not very tall. She thought about the difficulty of survival for kung fu artists in the latter circle, and thought that his face did not look tall when he became an adult, but in fact, his height seemed to be average.  Come on, it¡¯s not easy to act with a female artist. He suggested, ¡°When you have time, go to the hospital and ask for advice on how to grow taller.¡±

    She reached out and pinched his chubby face, "Also, when you reach puberty, you have to put weight control first. You must not gain weight, otherwise, it will be difficult to take on the role."

    Among the child stars, Shu Chang and Zhang Xueying maintained their weight well during adolescence, so whether they were heavyweight roles or not, they were at least always filmed. However, Yang Zi had to disappear from the screen for a period of time because he gained weight during adolescence.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Feeling embarrassed, he suggested: "When you have time, go to the hospital and ask for advice on how to grow taller."
