Since Zhu Zixiao participated in the variety show "Infinite Transcendence Class Season 2", the topic of live broadcast cannot avoid him, because he has been focusing on live broadcast since he switched to live broadcast in 2020, and does not film or record at all. variety show. This year's "Infinite Transcendence Class" was my first time recording a variety show, and it was also the beginning of my return as an actor. So why does he only do live broadcasts and not film? Is it because live streaming just started four years ago and is developing rapidly, and live streaming can bring huge profits? The answer can be revealed in his conversations with producers and mentors.
When unlimited artists finished their team assessment and entered the market grading competition stage, Zhu Zixiao was designated by the producers as a third-tier actor in the market grading, that is, a marginal actor who may be eliminated by the market at any time. Although this result is not ideal, Zhu Zixiao agrees because he has not acted in a few years and has been doing live broadcasts. The entertainment industry is very realistic. If your work is not broadcast for a year or two, you may be forgotten.
When the producer and mentor commented on Zhu Zixiao, Hao Lei asked him if no one asked him to film before he chose to do the live broadcast? Hao Lei asked this. One reason may be that Zhu Zixiao's career as an actor peaked when he debuted, and then continued to decline. There are fewer and fewer opportunities to choose from. Another reason may be that many actors switch to live broadcasting because of life pressure, like during the epidemic. The crew has been greatly reduced, and the actors have no scenes to film. If you don't do live broadcasts that can make money quickly, your life may really be a problem.
Ning Jing was also curious whether Zhu Zixiao had no choice but to do the live broadcast, or was it a proactive one like her? Although Hao Lei hasn't heard Zhu Zixiao's answer yet, she has already guessed that the two of them cannot be compared together. She said that Jing Jing, you love to play. Do you think so many of your images have already appeared? There are all roles created by professional actors. He It's something else. This made Ning Jing even more curious, "Have you been abandoned?" Er Dongsheng also wanted to know, "You can't survive anymore, right?"
It's really hard to survive. Zhu Zixiao said that he went there because he had "completely" nothing to do. Live broadcast. Hao Lei asked again, "How long has it been since anyone asked you to film?" Zhu Zixiao said, "That's a long time, at least a year younger." This made Ning Jing a little bit dumbfounded. The first sentence made people think it had been ten years. Zhu Zixiao explained that it was because he had never had a break before, and no one came to him for more than a year, so he suddenly felt panicked because he had a car loan and a house loan to repay. Where to make this money? It can only be broadcast live.
means that Zhu Zixiao’s live broadcasting is not entirely for the purpose of making money, but he was forced into the field of live broadcasting by mortgage and car loans. It happened to be an epidemic at that time, and the number of production crews was limited. The best way for actors who couldn't get roles to make money was through live broadcasts. Taking advantage of public figures, they could quickly gather popularity and make money by selling goods. This method can be a good way to make money. Pay off the mortgage and car loan. In addition, Zhu Zixiao also mentioned in the "Infinite Beyond Class 2" spin-off program "Infinitely Not Boring 2.0" that it is a happy thing for him to introduce or share products with others, so he has been doing live broadcasts for several years. He participated in "Infinity Class 2" because fans encouraged him to act after seeing his drastically changed image, so he came to this show.
However, Hao Lei did not quite accept Zhu Zixiao's reason, and asked him, "Have you heard Zhang Songwen's story? He never owned any house, and he never went live." Zhu Zixiao said that his established situation was that he had already bought it. Hao Lei said that in less than a year, I had no one looking for a job for a whole year. What's going on? Zhu Zixiao said that's not possible, everyone is different. This time Hao Lei understood that people are really different. For people like Zhu Zixiao who bought a house and found that their jobs were unsatisfactory and their incomes dropped significantly, and they had to live broadcast in order to pay off debts, they could only understand and accept this reason.
Although he accepted such a reason, Hao Lei did not think that Zhu Zixiao's return would go smoothly. He said that their first episode of the program had already been broadcast. Some comments about him said that he had almost made enough money from live broadcasting. , and then came back to be an actor. "I really don't like this. It's really not easy for actors to come back."
Even if cold water is poured on him, Zhu Zixiao's intention to return remains unchanged, "That's what I think. I think life is so short. Why do I have to stipulate that I can only live broadcast? I hope that I am a happy person. "Acting is very relaxing and happy for him. He just wants to be an actor well. If he can't do it anymore, he will do live broadcasts again.
Qian Zhongyuan, the chief producer of Chatong Production, is not so optimistic about Zhu Zixiao's return. He said that he is right His impromptu performance in the interview was quite disappointing. He didn't feel that he had entered the role. He seemed to be far away from the performance. This may have been affected by the energy of the live broadcast. This made Zhu Zixiao bring up the same explanation during the interview. He felt that improvisation could only be representative. In a way, he is an actor who needs opponents to stimulate him, needs to be in the current environment, and needs to prepare...
Before he could finish speaking, Hao Lei said, "Zhu Zixiao, if you keep talking, you will be scolded on the trending search. I think This is very unprofessional. Improvisation is part of acting. "Ning Jing also said that talents are different. He performs very freely during live broadcasts. Hao Lei said that if he can use his live broadcast energy in performances, the results will be different.
Qian Zhongyuan also gave his own suggestions, If Zhu Zixiao really likes acting, he must invest heavily in this career, especially from the market perspective. He does very well in live broadcasts, but those data have no reference value to them, because he is performing after all. Inside, they were looking at the characters he created.
In a later question, Zhu Zixiao said that he was already working on the project. Is it possible that there would be no producers looking for actors like him? Qian Zhongyuan said that it would be impossible to find him. It is a role for a male protagonist, and it can only be a supporting role. He has to start from a supporting role. Xiang Zuo, who also has a bumpy career in acting, shared his story with Zhu Zixiao on the spot and encouraged him to take the initiative, saying that he had approached three or four people at once. Everyone ignored him, but he didn't give up, and finally found a crew who came to him. Hao Lei sincerely suggested to Zhu Zixiao that acting is the same as loving someone. If you don't really pay that much for him, he won't either. I really fall in love with you. You can use the show to create different characters and show others that you are completely different from your previous self.
Judging from Zhu Zixiao's performance in the show, he actually loves acting. He will not say that acting is his main job and live broadcasting is a fallback. He will not ask the producer if his mentor Eric Tsang says his play is okay, but he will pursue better performance over and over again. Will he not be asked to film because of his live broadcast? "The road is long and long," Zhu Zixiao, just work hard if you decide on the direction.
