The present situation of 200,000 group performances in Hengdian: beautiful women are rampant and lazy bachelors are everywhere. Where will they go?

As one of the most famous film and television bases in China, Hengdian has always been a dream place for many young men and women who have dreams and want to be actors.

But among these people, some people go to group performances with the mentality of "getting rich overnight" and "being lazy". They heard that group performances can earn hundreds of dollars as long as they lie flat for one day, so they came in an attempt to get rich overnight and lie flat forever.

However, with so many film and television bases in China, why did you choose Hengdian? How many of them can really realize their ideals in the future?

Why are there so many group performances in Hengdian Studios?

As the largest film and television theme park in China, Hengdian Studios covers an area of 50,000 mu. In terms of scale, it has attracted many young men and women to perform collectively here.

In addition, on 20 10, Hengdian Studios was also upgraded from AAAA scenic spot to national AAAAAA-level scenic spot, which became more famous.

At the same time, because Wang He and Zhao stood out here, they attracted more young men and women to perform in Hengdian as a group.

Hengdian Studios is located in Jinhua, Zhejiang. Only the local group performance in Hengdian, Zhejiang, has more than 200,000 people entering and leaving every day.

The last thing that the working group of Hengdian base is worried about is that it can't find a group performance, because there are as many ants signing up for the group performance every day.

And these group performances are basically people who come from all over the country and hope to realize the dreams of actors.

To say why so many people are willing to come to perform as a troupe, the reasons are actually more complicated. Some of them not only dream of becoming actors, but also take shortcuts to make money.

However, there is a lot of work to be done to make money, so why choose a troupe to perform?

Some scholars in our country have made relevant investigations and found that Hengdian's group performances generally have low academic qualifications, ordinary family background and even poor.

Many interviewees said that they were ridiculed or even insulted from birth, bullied after going to school, and encountered various difficulties after entering the society. Due to their low academic qualifications, their interviews have repeatedly failed.

Finally, they decided to give up their normal working methods. The biggest advantage of doing group performance in Hengdian is that the academic threshold is very low. Many people follow Wang's example and expect to be like him.

Some of them think that it costs thousands of dollars a month to work, and they have to work hard every day, depending on the boss's face; And if a star is selected, he can earn more than 10 thousand, even hundreds of thousands and millions.

Of course, Chinese mainland's salary is really high, which is a fact that we have to admit, but not everyone can become a prominent star.

A really good actor needs superb acting skills and systematic training in regular schools. Our well-known Beijing Film and Television Academy and Shanghai Theatre Academy are world-renowned institutions established to train these first-line actors.

Students must go through four or even years of systematic study and master the art and skills of performance before they can let go of all kinds of roles.

On the other hand, some group performances that take shortcuts to Hengdian have simple inner thoughts and no plans for their careers. They think they can make a lot of money as long as they are selected by the director.

I don't know the actor's road is also a very difficult road. However, in Hengdian's more than 200,000 group performances every day, most people hold this idea.

202 1 the State Council published a set of data. According to statistics, there are as many as 600 million people in China whose monthly income is below 1000 yuan, accounting for almost half of the total population of China.

Among these 600 million people, a large part of them are eager to turn over through shortcuts, so they choose Hengdian as a group performance, which is also an important reason why Hengdian has so many group performances every day.

There is a big gap between ideal and reality, but some people still insist.

If someone asks, are there many beautiful women in Hengdian? The answer is, of course, "a lot". Imagine the daily flow of more than 200,000 people, plus all the actors who come to interview need to leave the country.

Many girls who are good-looking but have ordinary family conditions think that they should eat by natural advantages. Even for group performances with low academic requirements, there are certain requirements for basic quality.

Although some girls are handsome, they are introverted, and the basic quality required by actors is super "into the play" ability. You can quickly adapt to the role and integrate yourself into it.

After getting the director's script, many introverted girls can't read it well. After several times, some directors are reluctant to choose these girls, even if they have inherent advantages in appearance and poor ability, they will still be eliminated.

Although the girls who successfully passed the customs clearance are very happy, the next thing they have to face is the disillusionment of their dreams. Why?

It turns out that doing group performances in Hengdian is not as beautiful as expected. Some people rush into this circle without knowing the difference between group performance and starring, in an attempt to make money through group performance, which is simply unrealistic.

In the entertainment circle of China, there is a saying: "90% of the film and television dramas filmed in China are distributed to the leading actor, and the remaining 10% is divided equally by 99%."

This sentence is very reasonable. In Hengdian, the cost of a party performance is basically between 100- 150. If an independent feature is involved, the cost may be higher in 50 yuan, but it will definitely not be much higher.

It will not rise to be seen by a famous director. You know, directors watch movies in milliseconds, and their concept of time is beyond our understanding. A painting may pass before you see it.

If the group performance involves some special scenes, such as "Japanese women entering the village", it is necessary for the actor and actress who play the Japanese to perform a scene together, and it must be very realistic.

This will inevitably involve physical contact between actors and actresses, and when it comes to such shots, Hengdian will only increase the price to 300 yuan, which is already the highest price in group performances.

Speaking of actors here, a set of data shows that in Hengdian, the number of actors is also very large, and sometimes even 50-50 with actresses.

As mentioned above, Hengdian's salary as a group performance is not much, and men need to support their families. Why don't these people want to find a decent job to perform at the party? Most of them are lazy.

These men are basically losers or ordinary people in their hometown, and their ideas are more extreme than those of actresses.

They think that after becoming a star here, they can get anything they didn't get in the past.

Because many of them don't have girlfriends, they even look for pleasure when they "infringe" actresses in some clips involving infringement scenes, which can be described as very dark inside.

But even in such an environment, some people still stick to their dreams.

There are always a few shining stars in a huge crowd. In these group performances, there are actually some young people from formal classes, but their graduation colleges are not very well-known, or their family and personal conditions are average.

They can only start with group performances, but they don't have those messy ideas. They just want to start with group performances and realize their life ideals step by step.

Some people often share their daily life as a group performance on social platforms, or even make it into a vlog, and the number of hits is also considerable. Some people have successfully transformed into media bloggers through these short videos, which is very good.

Group performance is also a job, which needs to be treated correctly.

In Hengdian, there are not a few people who really love it here. At the beginning of this year, CCTV media came to Hengdian and conducted a series of interviews with local extras. The reporter saw countless bright spots from them.

"A Fei from Guangxi, his parents make a living by farming, but he has an actor dream since he was a child, hoping to get out of the mountains through group performances."

Last June, A Fei came to Hengdian and looked at the huge cities and scenic spots. Teddy boy is very excited. He expects to find a suitable role here and stand out from the crowd.

After getting the number, he waited for a long month and finally caught War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's charge.

He is very excited and eager to try. But when he really started performing, he found it more difficult than he thought.

The posture, route, time and expression when charging can't be wrong. If you are wrong, you have to start over.

A Fei told reporters: "Very tired. The director said it was only a ten-second charge shot, but we shot this ten-second shot all afternoon, and finally eliminated a group of people and continued shooting tomorrow. "

Yes, TV plays are aimed at the national audience, and the quality must be guaranteed.

In A Fei's group, some people held the attitude of muddling along, didn't perform seriously, and even laughed when they rushed to the front, which was cut off by the director. A Fei himself made several mistakes, which led to repeated remakes of the camera.

Finally, the director personally came over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Young man, you have worked hard and are better than others, but I suggest you choose a job that suits you."

Although the final shot passed smoothly, A Fei got a reward of 100 yuan, but he sank into the sea again and waited for more than half a month without a new job.

However, A Fei didn't give up. He told reporters: "This experience, whether successful or not, is a valuable experience for me. I will continue to pursue my dream and will continue to work hard in the future. "

Ali, a native of Hubei, is an out-and-out Tujia girl. She is handsome and tall.

She is a child in the mountains, just like teddy boy. When she first arrived in Hengdian, she was attracted by some small directors because of her outstanding appearance.

But in the process of shooting, these obscure little directors always think about how to "hidden rules" for Ali. It caused Ali to quit angrily at the end of the movie, and she couldn't accept such behavior.

However, as a result, she worked hard for a long time but didn't get a penny.

Ali thought about giving up many times, but in the end, her persistence in her dream defeated her, and she still chose to persist.

A week later, the director of a costume drama found Ali waiting in line in the crowd, so he went over to greet her politely and handed in his contact information, hoping that she would join his crew.

Ali tried to agree that her first scene was selling vegetables in the street in heavy ancient winter clothes. Although the scene is winter, all that can be photographed is summer, which poses a big challenge to Ali.

However, Ali seems to have a natural indomitable spirit in his bones. She just shouted in the "ice and snow" for three minutes in a heavy cotton-padded jacket.

It was these three important minutes that won her special attention from the director, so the director decided to let her continue to participate in the crew and play some other roles.

"I am grateful to have such an opportunity to realize the value of life," Ali told reporters with a smile.

The above cases are the epitome of Hengdian Group's performance. In Hengdian, there are many young people like A Fei and Ali. Some people have dreams like A Fei, but in the end they are eliminated because of their lack of ability.

Others, like Ali, have been successfully tapped by the director to participate in other roles by virtue of their tenacity and excellent appearance advantages.

But the chances of really being selected as a first-line actor are even more difficult than going to heaven. Ali is already a very lucky man.

Being able to treat group performance as a job correctly is the attitude that young people in Hengdian should have.

final result

It is good to have a dream, but you can't have abnormal fantasies, and you can't try to climb the peak of life by taking shortcuts. This is unrealistic behavior.

The people we saw, Wang and Zhao, all flew out of golden phoenix from Hengdian, but no one saw the hardships behind them. We only keep our feet on the ground, regard the group performance as our real passion, and we are not afraid of hardship or fatigue.

Finally, you may get something. However, if you don't work hard, struggle, and fantasize about reaching the sky in one step, then you will definitely get nothing. Only by finding the right goal can we gradually succeed in life.
