Chapter 223: The Birth of a Liver Emperor, Double Audition

It's just that the broadcast of film and television dramas is completely influenced by the production side; this is not something the actors can decide.

Of course, actors also want to be broadcast one after another, preferably being exposed all year round, but things are hard to happen as one imagines.

Sui Lingfang finished talking about "Dream Builder" and mentioned "No One Survives" again.

"I communicated with Deng Zexu later, and he said that it has already entered the editing stage. He plans to keep an eye on the film himself. Perhaps this film will come out faster than 'Dream Builder'."

Jin Li was a little surprised, but not very surprised.

Influenced by the efficiency of editing, coupled with the subjective factors of the director's will, and objective factors such as policy changes that cannot be intervened by human intervention, it is very likely that the one filmed first has not been released, but the one filmed later has already been released.

And film and television dramas often have a characteristic.

Filming and broadcasting immediately can be released very quickly, while those dramas that have undergone several revisions after filming and have had many policy changes during the period are actually very difficult to release.

This can also be considered a kind of curse.

Sui Lingfang asked about her plans: "It's already January, and the New Year is in early February. What kind of promotional events do you want to take?"

Jin Li asked: "What is Sister Fang's idea?"

Sui Lingfang said excitedly: "It's impossible for you to film, unless you play a supporting role, but playing a supporting role consumes your current popularity too much. I suggest participating in a few variety shows; you don't need that many, just one or two will do."

Jin Li thought about it. Even if variety shows are relaxed, she still has to face the camera.

Some actors feel that variety shows are no different from acting, as they all have to follow a predetermined script.

With her body, she cannot participate in high-intensity confrontation games and can only go for knowledge-based or relaxed and casual styles.

And for knowledge-based variety shows, her diploma is a hard injury, so forget it.

For relaxed and casual ones, "Relaxed Slow Life" is enough for now.

Jin Li said: "The inventory of 'Relaxed Slow Life' filmed before has also been broadcast, right? It must be reshot in January, so I won't participate in other variety shows. Just take some endorsement activities."

Although Sui Lingfang was regretful, she also understood.

At least she was still willing to participate in endorsement activities. It just so happened that her blog and other social platforms could update a set of Jin Li's beautiful photos.

"Okay, I will communicate with 'Relaxed Slow Life.' You should have a good rest during this period."

Sui Lingfang paused and said earnestly: "Jin Li, learning is something that needs to be done bit by bit. Don't be too anxious."

I have to say, Jin Li's spirit of working hard in the crew and studying hard outside a bit scared her.

Getting up at eight!

Even she, a worker, felt like it was a nightmare!

Jin Li smiled lightly, revealing two small dimples on her cheeks, looking clear, sweet, and harmless.

She said: "Sister Fang, I'm not anxious. I will follow the steps that my body can accept."

After Jin Li finished the meeting with Sui Lingfang, she returned to the apartment. On the way back, she received a message from Ji Qinglian and couldn't help but pause.

After thinking for a while, she replied with a message.

"Assassination" crew, afternoon.

Qiu Qiwen and other first and second-tier stars all entered the filming venue, which was the school, where they would audition.

Not only that, they would also act with Gu Cheng in person. The director wanted to see the tacit understanding between the male and female leads.

Gu Cheng auditioning in person, this lineup was not small.

The little stars who came to interview in the morning didn't have this treatment.

"Gu Cheng, how do you feel? Are you okay?" Zhang Guang came to Gu Cheng's side in advance to ask about his condition.

Gu Cheng nodded: "It's okay. I filmed this scene in the morning, and it's not difficult for me."

This time he accompanied the audition, he was notified by Director Yan temporarily and did not communicate with Gu Cheng in advance.

But Gu Cheng knew that this was Director Yan's style, so he didn't say anything in the end. If there was anything he could do to help, he also hoped to help the director choose the female lead as soon as possible.

The premise was not to let him decide.

Seeing that his expression was fine, Zhang Guang felt a little relieved. Gu Cheng had to film during the day and attend Sanyuetian's high-intensity promotional events at night, which made him the one who suffered the most among all the members.

So he paid more attention to him during this period.

Gu Cheng turned around and said to him: "Actually, you don't have to stay by my side all the time. You can go take care of other artists. The crew is here and won't run away. The staff respects me very much, and Xiao Tong also takes good care of me."

Zhang Guang snorted: "You are very worry-free. I didn't come here to watch you; I'm watching someone else."

Gu Cheng had nothing to say.

Yan Jianqiao's filming style was indeed very different from Tianding Entertainment's style.

Another half hour passed, and filming began.

The first one to go on stage was a second-tier actress who had recently starred in a popular ancient idol drama and was very famous in the circle.

Gu Cheng quickly entered the state, turning into a perpetrator, cooperating with other actors. Among them, the female lead, as the new clown in the clown game, witnessed how Gu Xiude abused others and shivered while listening to the screams.

In this scene, it was necessary to film the female lead's fearful and panicked expression, and at the same time, it was necessary to film the female lead's fearful and pleading attitude. The overall emotional atmosphere was horror, fear, and depression.

Men have some violent factors in their bones, so showing violence is not difficult.

This scene looks like an evenly matched picture, but the male lead's "evil" relies more on the female lead's "fear" to set it off.

If the female lead's performance can't keep up, it makes the male lead's evil look less terrifying. Yan Jianqiao put the audition in this scene, which was a solid test of the actress's acting skills.

As soon as the second-tier actress heard the screams, she couldn't stop her body from trembling, covered her head, and desperately wanted to hide in the corner, not looking at Gu Cheng at all throughout the process.

Yan Jianqiao was expressionless, and he was not satisfied with the actress's performance in his heart.

This was not the picture he imagined.

In his imagination, the female lead could be very afraid, but in her fear, she also had to see the male lead committing violence, so that she could lead out the choice she made later because she was too afraid.

Next was the second actor, the third actor...

Finally, it was Qiu Qiwen's turn to audition.

She was the second to last actor.

She took a deep breath, and after making the movements, the moment the filming started, she switched to another state.

Since knowing that the adult female lead was played by Jian Liting, Qiu Qiwen felt that she had no chance to play the young female lead.

But Gu Cheng's popularity was too high, and this drama was invested by Tianding Entertainment, so it must be a well-deserved hit drama. Therefore, Qiu Qiwen thought about it and still wanted to participate in the audition to fight for an opportunity.

In a panic, she cried while covering her eyes with her hands, but at the same time opened the gaps in her fingers, using that little bit of light, like a glimmer in the dark, to watch the male lead committing violence.

Gradually, the light in her eyes also became dimmer and dimmer, leaving only fearful tears, as if the dam had burst in a desperate situation!

Director Yan raised his eyebrows gently, and some crew members couldn't help but nod.

The on-site infectious power was amazing.

After Qiu Qiwen finished her performance, it was the last one, Xu Wenwen's turn to go on stage.

Qiu Qiwen brushed past her, and the two didn't look at each other from beginning to end, as if they were strangers.

Xu Wenwen stood in the designated place, and to everyone's surprise, she posed in a bound posture!

Yan Jianqiao couldn't help but stop getting up, and in the picture, Xu Wenwen took a big white steamed bun from her arms and stuffed it directly into her mouth, just as a substitute plug.

Her body was bound, her mouth was stuffed, she shook her head in panic, and made a choked whimpering sound like a little beast.

It was as if someone forced her to watch this scene.

And the moment she heard the scream, the tears in her eyes flowed out, her body kept trembling, she wanted to retreat, but she was firmly bound by someone.

Unable to break free, she could only accept her predetermined fate.

Selected as the clown for the clown game, the next one to stand on the podium and be abused would be her!

Everyone listened to Xu Wenwen's choking and couldn't help but feel a little empathetic. Some people couldn't stand it and turned their heads away.

This actor's infectious power was stronger. It seemed that she was really facing a violent scene, and all her current behaviors were both helpless and fearful, making people couldn't help but pity her fate.

Qiu Qiwen silently watched Xu Wenwen's performance, and before her performance ended, she turned around and left the crew.

There was no need to look at the results later.

She asked herself that she couldn't compete with Xu Wenwen.

But in fact, this didn't mean that Qiu Qiwen couldn't perform better than Xu Wenwen. After all, in the crew, acting wasn't just up to the actors.

If other leads, directors, and screenwriters had better ideas, they would all be brought up to adjust to each other.

Xu Wenwen could think of such a performance method, which didn't mean others couldn't think of it, so when the day of filming really arrived, all the finalized scenes were the best of the best.

But no matter what, as an actor's improvisation, Qiu Qiwen asked herself that she was not as good as Xu Wenwen.

After Xu Wenwen's performance ended, a round of applause sounded on the field, which was a treatment that other actors didn't have.

Yan Jianqiao thought for a while and suddenly said: "You film one more scene."

Others looked at each other, not saying that they had to film two scenes, was this the director adding scenes temporarily?

Xu Wenwen asked quickly: "What scene?"

Yan Jianqiao said: "The revenge scene when the female lead returns to school after growing up. She turns from a person who was abused into a devil who collects debts, giving violence to those who commit violence on campus, an eye for an eye."

Given that Xu Wenwen hadn't seen the later scenes, he added: "You can treat yourself as a messenger of justice."

Xu Wenwen: "Be your own judge?"

Yan Jianqiao: "That's about what it means."

Xu Wenwen: "Give me five minutes."

"Okay!" Yan Jianqiao said quickly.

Zhang Guang stood up and walked out. The following performance was meaningless. He felt that he didn't need to watch it.

Gu Cheng took advantage of the break to breathe, and when he saw Brother Guang coming outside, his face sank immediately, and he couldn't help but smile.

Zhang Guang heard the laughter and glared at him: "He even wants to kick out the adult female lead we decided on, and you can still laugh? Is this the director you chose?"

Gu Cheng's smile remained unchanged, and he said lazily: "Brother Guang, this is also the investment you chose. You were also very optimistic about him at the beginning."

Zhang Guang said depressedly: "How did I know his filming style was like this!"

Gu Cheng said: "Don't worry, maybe it's not what you think. The contract has been signed, and Director Yan may not dare to breach the contract."

Zhang Guang sneered: "How do you know he doesn't dare? At the beginning, he dared to hide it from us and immediately decided on the young female lead."

Gu Cheng: "You didn't sign a contract at the time, so he found this loophole.

The actress he found does have spirituality, but she is too much of a newcomer and doesn't know how to cherish the opportunity. You can't talk about hard work with people at the age of dreaming. Everyone needs a process of adaptation."

He changed the subject: "Director Yan has learned this lesson, and he will be more cautious next time. If he really didn't take you seriously, he wouldn't have deleted and modified the script again and again because of the company's requirements."

A flash of thought crossed Zhang Guang's eyes.

Gu Cheng said lightly: "Go back and see, lest the director thinks too much. I still hope he can film well."

Every director's filming style is different. If you follow the director's ideas to film, you can make this drama very successful.

Then the matter of signing a female lead directly without consent can still be tolerated.

At least now, didn't Yan Jianqiao also not say he wanted to replace the adult female lead who had already signed the contract?

Zhang Guang and Gu Cheng returned together and finished watching Xu Wenwen's second performance.

Then the interview ended there.

The second performance was Xu Wenwen playing the adult female lead, confronting a violent student. In this scene, she showed extreme coldness and ruthlessness, a different person from the cowardly and trembling self in the past.

It's hard to imagine what happened in the middle to make a person's personality change so much.

This scene was not a scene with deep emotional resonance, and other staff members didn't applaud, and they dispersed immediately after the performance ended.

Xu Wenwen saw that the director didn't say anything, so she left the crew quickly.

Before the interview, it was said that the notification would be out in two or three days.

Gu Cheng and Zhang Guang were also preparing to leave.

Yan Jianqiao suddenly stopped Gu Cheng: "Orange, wait a minute, I have something I want to talk to you about."

Zhang Guang said: "I'll wait for you in the car now."

During this period, he didn't look at Yan Jianqiao at all.

Gu Cheng came to Director Yan's side and asked: "What's the matter, Director?"

Yan Jianqiao let him watch Xu Wenwen's performance in the lens, replayed both performances, and asked: "What do you think of her acting?"

Gu Cheng said: "Better than the first one you picked."

Yan Jianqiao's face darkened: "Can you stop mentioning Li Xiue?"

Gu Cheng glanced at him: "You still care too much about her. Look at it openly. The more you care, the less people will mention it."

Yan Jianqiao: "... I don't care, I'm depressed!" He paused and asked again: "Do you think this person can play two roles alone and play the adult female lead too?"

Gu Cheng shook his head: "Director Yan, you have to grasp this yourself. I won't make any suggestions. I'm just an actor."

Yan Jianqiao said vaguely: "The contract..."

Gu Cheng: "I don't have the right to communicate either. If you have any opinions, talk directly to my manager. Only if you convince him will you have the confidence to convince Tianding Entertainment."

Yan Jianqiao was like a deflated ball and immediately wilted: "It's okay, I'll think about it again..."

In a tea room in Dongcheng, Ji Qinglian had just arrived, and her manager Zhang Ziqiang had already arrived there.

Ji Qinglian's mobile phone vibrated, and she looked down and found it was a text message from Jin Li.

Before she came, she told Jin Li about her plan to change entertainment companies and asked for Jin Li's opinion.

Jin Li: 【I have no opinion. You don't need to worry about my feelings. Just follow your own ideas.】

Ji Qinglian felt relieved. Having this sentence from her was enough. ===== CHAPTER 224 =====
