Chapter 121

In fact, Li Qin herself was also a bit confused.

The casting for "Princess Agents" was already more than half finished, and she had landed the role of the second female lead, Princess Yuan Chun of the Great Wei.

Honestly, she felt a bit bitter inside.

Zhao Liying had played Xing Xiuyan in her debut work, "The Dream of Red Mansions."

But Li Qin herself had played Xue Baochai.

Now the tables had turned, and she could only play a supporting role to the other person; there was inevitably some bitterness in her heart.

As for Bai Liang's matter~

For the past two days, the "Princess Agents" crew had been looking for a second male lead and had auditioned several people but felt none were quite suitable; there was a Dou Xiao who was pretty good, but he had some scheduling issues.

If they used him, some scenes would have to be shot against a green screen and then edited...

This was a last resort, a fallback move, and if used, they would likely be scolded by the audience.

So Dou Xiao became a backup; if they really couldn't find another suitable actor, they would have to use him.

So the crew also symbolically asked for the opinion of Li Qin, the second female lead.

She hadn't thought of Bai Liang at first; they had only met once and weren't particularly close, but she happened to see him on the trending list... so she just mentioned it casually.

It really was just a casual mention.

As a result, the crew suddenly told her that many people agreed with her recommendation, and if Bai Liang's schedule was suitable, it would be settled.

What do you mean it's settled?!

Li Qin was stunned and hurriedly called Bai Liang... to tell him about this.

Mainly worried that if he didn't have the schedule, it would be awkward.

Bai Liang indicated that he had plenty of schedule!

This thing... wasn't it something you could have as much as you wanted?

After all, his style was different from other artists; normal artists, especially those who were already famous, usually had one filming contract after another.

Some might even be booked two years in advance.

But Bai Liang was the type of player who lived hand to mouth; "Love O2O" was about to wrap up, and he actually had no idea what he was going to do next.

You have to know, even the schedule of that small fry Meng Ziyi wouldn't be this random.

Logically, this should be blamed on the manager, but Bai Liang felt Yan Zi was already working very hard; maybe this was just how the path of a freelancer was.

"Maybe it's because I'm not famous enough; don't blame yourself."

"Brother Bai Liang..."

After today's dose of emotion, Yan Zi also helped analyze this show that had inexplicably come knocking.

The role the "Princess Agents" crew gave Bai Liang was also the second male lead, similar in weight to the bait being dangled by "Three Lives, Three Worlds."

The gold content of the cast on both sides was even quite similar.

Looking at the cast, it felt like the "case was solved."

The male lead was his good brother Lin Gengxin~

"What's up, Great Immortal? Ah? I recommended you?" Lin Gengxin thought about it but didn't take the credit.

"They just asked me about you, and I said you were amazing, proficient in horse riding and archery. Second male lead? Damn, I'm a bit afraid of you, buddy... don't come over here!"

How could he not be afraid!

During "God of War, Zhao Zilong," he was almost passively stepped on by Bai Liang.

Lin Gengxin, as the dream of nine hundred million girls, was doing quite well among the younger generation of male actors and had never really feared anyone; after leaving Tangren, he soared, and his resources were outrageously good.

Among his peers, he looked at everyone as "worthless."

But Bai Liang really made him feel a bit uneasy; this guy was weird!

Do you understand the gold content of the two words "Great Immortal"?!

Lin Gengxin: Wait, you aren't going to use me to set yourself off again, are you?

Bai Liang ignored him and continued to study with Yan Zi, and actually found another good brother.

Wang Yanlin: "Ah? I recommended you? What am I to recommend you? I'm only the fourth male lead myself... but come quickly! Take your brother for another run; I don't think Lin Gengxin is as reliable as you, I've thought you were capable since we were kids~"

Good, good, good, acquaintances one after another!

Bai Liang even discovered that he knew the fifth male lead, who was Niu Junfeng, who had just wrapped up filming and left the "Love O2O" crew.

The other party played his roommate, and their relationship was also quite good.

Yan Zi's expression was extremely strange; what's going on, are you guys trying to hold a team-building event?

From the first male lead to the fifth, you've got them all, right?

She was now very curious, what would happen to that third male lead who wasn't close to anyone?

Isolated before even joining the crew?

Oh, that unlucky guy was named Deng Lun; never heard of him.

The unexpected surprise of "Princess Agents" suddenly gave Yan Zi a lot of things to get busy with.

For example, rushing over to talk to them about filming schedules, pay, and other issues.

Two days later, she brought Bai Liang a new piece of news.

"They originally wanted to use Dou Xiao, but his schedule had a slight conflict... but not much. Brother Bai Liang, we've picked up a leak."

Yan Zi's tone was very happy.

Who?

The He family's son-in-law?

Bai Liang suddenly felt it was very reasonable; his He family was naturally countered by him.

Whenever he was short of money, he would involuntarily think of their family and then want to go over and take some money to use.

"By the way, Brother Bai Liang, there's someone in the directing team named Wu Shuo, quite young; he said he knows you, and he was very enthusiastic toward me."

Wu Shuo? This name sounds a bit familiar~

Bai Liang quickly recalled, "Ah, the 'disdain brother' who eats oranges."

"You really know him?"

"I guess you could say we know each other."

Come to think of it, how many acquaintances are in this crew? Popping out one by one. Don't let Lin Yufen run over and get involved, joining the directing team to give Bai Liang some old-baby care.

Up to now, how many people in the "Princess Agents" crew recommended Bai Liang for the second male lead remains an unsolved mystery.

Because as the wrap-up time got closer, when Gu Man came to chat with Bai Liang, feeling a bit reluctant, she also casually said:

"Earlier in a writer's group, a peer asked me if I had any male actors to recommend, and I praised you a few times; I don't know if her work will look for you to act in it."

"Which peer?"

"Xiaoxiang Dong'er."

Hmm... this name was very unfamiliar, but Bai Liang checked and it was the original author of "Princess Agents."

Alright, now Bai Liang didn't want to know at all how many "his own people" were in that crew.

Can't count them, really can't count them.

Perhaps, this is the correct way to open the entertainment industry?

——

As the scenes for the "Love O2O" crew were filmed less and less, "Chinese Paladin 5" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" were also broadcast one after another.

Bai Liang naturally had to pay attention.

The former, besides seeing his own feeling in the Xianxia drama, also had some "important tasks."

This book is recently updated at ##!! Update!

For example, helping classmate Nazha summarize her shortcomings and strengths.

However, Bai Liang took the liberty to decide to only look at the strengths and ignore the shortcomings for the time being.

"Chinese Paladin 5" was broadcast in the Diamond Exclusive Theater on Mango TV, airing two episodes every Monday and Tuesday night at 22:00.

However, it showed signs of decline as soon as it started.

"Chinese Paladin 5" was the sixth work in the Chinese Paladin series of stand-alone games and also a work of transition between old and new, with a change in style.

During development, it also experienced a series of storms such as fires and resignations, leading to this work itself being criticized.

Whether you like Chinese Paladin 5 or not, you have to admit that this work can actually only be considered a semi-finished product; the early construction was huge, but the later ending was rushed, and unreasonable plots were forcibly added for the sake of characters, with chaotic logic, all of which were problems with this work.

It can be said that it was congenitally deficient from the beginning.

Classmate Nazha was beautiful, but her audience appeal was obviously not very good; even though she had been boosted a bit by following Bai Liang, many viewers still doubted her ability to carry the show as a heroine.

Facts proved that their doubts were correct.

The dissonance of an exotic beauty playing a Jiangnan lady was too strong.

Besides Nazha, the other aspects were also full of flaws.

But to be honest, there weren't actually that many people scolding it after it started airing.

Because very few people were watching it!

The ratings for this thing were a big chunk lower than that thing "God of War, Zhao Zilong."

Many Chinese Paladin fans didn't even admit that this thing was part of the Chinese Paladin series; expel it, expel it!

So, a few days after "Chinese Paladin 5" started airing, Bai Liang gained a heartbroken girl.

Nazha was crying and asking for comfort over the phone.

Saying she felt uncomfortable inside and it would be great if someone could help rub it.

She only dared to say such things over the phone; if it were in person... Bai Liang would really rub it.

However, after a few sentences, she also revealed a flaw.

This little girl actually knew a thing or two.

Besides the character mismatch, Tangren's later investment in this show was pitifully small.

Nazha wasn't smart, but she wasn't stupid either.

If this show really hit the jackpot and took off, then it would be a huge profit; if not, it wouldn't affect her making money anyway.

She didn't rely on any hit shows to become famous; the young lady walked the Jianghu relying on a beautiful face.

As long as the face is there, the country is there!

It's just a pity that if she didn't have to be in the line of fire and also help forward the promotion for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," she could still have a good year this year.

It would be a ghost if Cai Zong didn't catch her and spray her wildly.

Are you crazy about wanting to fall in love? Your own show flopped, and instead of reflecting properly, you're happily going to promote for the "opponent"?

Look at your worthless self! Your family's capybara has been hooked away by your little fellow townsman, and you're still licking it?

Nazha was also a bit rebellious, actually muttering: "How can he be considered an opponent... and he wasn't hooked away..."

Cai Zong: Rebellion! It's all rebellion!

Liu Shishi got married and ran away, Jin Cheng was looking like she couldn't be kept, and Nazha's mind wasn't on acting; Tangren, which was once strong, was now precarious...

For Cai Zong, the only good news recently was: Bai Liang rejected Jiaxing's olive branch.

Women are truly very emotional creatures; even a female CEO like Cai Zong, who has seen the world and even controls the thunder in the industry, would actually be happy because of such things.

She really holds grudges!

The grudge from when Yang Mi played her, she hasn't forgotten to this day.

She specifically called Bai Liang for this matter, kindly saying that you kid finally acted like a human being for once.

However, this big sister was also very bad, praising Nazha openly and secretly, saying she was a good girl, and that some people should know how to cherish her and not be deceived by the bad women of strange companies.

Don't know if she was hinting at Yang Mi or Reba.

Perhaps both.

Bai Liang hadn't had much contact with Yang Mi, so how could he know if she was a "bad woman."

Without practice, there is no right to speak.

But Reba shouldn't be; she was quite cute.

Now she's shaking her head with Bai Liang all day, occasionally feeding each other small snacks.

Oh right, Bai Liang also asked her about the Xijiang dialect.

Similar to Nazha's reaction at the time, after knowing that Bai Liang actually wanted to learn her hometown dialect, the young lady was stunned for several seconds, and light bloomed in her eyes.

However, due to time, Bai Liang estimated he couldn't learn it completely, but fortunately, he could find Nazha to continue learning later.

And with "Chinese Paladin 5" completely declared a flop, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" finally went online.
