Chapter 503: I Do As I Please, I Am Truly On

The finale of "Reset," once broadcast on Earth, went straight to the Weibo Hot Search.

The Weibo Hot Search was just two words—【Bad Ending】.

Some confused netizens clicked on the entry, only to realize that the ending of "Reset" had been scolded onto the Hot Search.

The reputation of this show's ending was polarized.

Some people felt that such a happy ending was quite good; I just love watching this kind of simple ending, not to mention that they might have done it for censorship purposes.

Another group of people was very dissatisfied with this ending, feeling it was very sloppy, many plot holes were not filled, and many places were self-contradictory with the preceding content.

After the finale aired, the reputation of "Reset" and its ratings on major platforms both saw a significant decline.

Even the male lead Baijingting posted saying: I really want to act out all the endings that netizens guessed before.

Regarding this, the "Reset" that Luo Mo filmed himself had a certain degree of radical modification to the ending.

He also did not know if the finale he changed would be any better.

But his intuition told him that, judging from some of the foreshadowing earlier in "Reset," the original ending might not actually be this one.

But this was just his personal speculation.

All he could do was to diverge his thinking based on these foreshadowings.

………

………

The next day, in the morning.

Inside the rehearsal room, Luo Mo stared at Chen Cai, not saying a word.

Chen Cai lowered his head, feeling uneasy from being stared at by him.

This young man was truly afraid of Luo Mo, especially afraid.

There was no help for it; who told him that in the variety show, he was the director and the mentor, and outside the variety show, he was also a leader and shareholder of the same company.

The reason why Luo Mo was looking Chen Cai up and down like this was very simple.

Previously, after he finished casting, the young Actor who played the 【Son】 was, in Luo Mo's view, acting in a complete mess.

It wasn't that this Actor lacked acting skills, it was just that there was a sense of detachment from this character.

In short, it was not real, not moving.

Last night, after Luo Mo's devilish training time and time again, this Actor couldn't hold it together anymore, crying as he apologized to Luo Mo and requested to let someone else act.

Through heart-to-heart talk, Luo Mo learned that this Actor named Fu Hong had many bad memories in his childhood, a severe lack of fatherly love, and had even encountered domestic violence several times.

Therefore, in this kind of family drama, he did not have much sense of immersion.

The character of the 【Father】 played by Xu Ruihong was acted too well, and Fu Hong could not catch the acting at all.

He would be moved by this Middle-aged Person, and in the depths of his heart, there would be endless envy, as well as resentment hidden in his heart!

"Why?"

These three words were what Fu Hong kept bringing up when talking heart-to-heart with Luo Mo.

Luo Mo actually couldn't give an answer either.

He just remembered a sentence, so he said: "It is a pity that 【Parents】 is a profession that does not require any assessment and has almost no threshold to be employed without a license."

In this world, there are too many people who only know how to give birth, not how to raise.

Luo Mo agreed to Fu Hong's request to change roles.

Then, he called Chen Cai over.

Immediately following, the scene before them occurred.

"Chen Cai, let me be direct, you are acting in a complete mess in this role," Luo Mo said.

Chen Cai just nodded, not daring to make a sound, still looking down at the ground.

He was indeed more handy at acting in Comedy, because he himself was very humorous.

That kind of outburst of emotional catharsis, he could not act it out.

This made Luo Mo very speechless, and he could only say to Xu Ruihong: "Teacher Xu, you acted too well; in our camp, others cannot catch your acting."

Xu Ruihong heard this and just smiled.

He actually didn't know what to do for a moment either.

If he were working outside, he might have held back his acting.

After all, many shows are purely to serve the male and female leads.

If the male lead and female lead cannot catch the supporting actor's acting, and there is a huge gap in acting skills, the supporting actor will be asked by the director to restrain their acting, telling you to act a little worse.

Is it ridiculous?

It is very ridiculous.

But don't say that, the effect finally presented this way is actually more comfortable.

It can only be said that the current market environment is not good, and many capable people are not qualified to play the lead.

Many who have no acting skills, on the contrary, have a constant stream of acting offers.

But the problem is, "Director Show" is a variety show, and it is an S-level hit variety show.

Xu Ruihong needs this variety show to let more audiences know him, see him, and needs to rely on it to take his career a step further.

He needs to shine, he needs to try his best to act.

At the same time, since it is a variety show, there will be Elimination.

Unless this round also takes first place in the whole show like "Ten Years of Work Offstage," otherwise, someone will have to be eliminated.

With various factors combined, Xu Ruihong must go all out!

This made Luo Mo incomparably distressed.

Starting from the character itself, the role of 【Son】 needs a young Actor to play it.

But these young people in Tian Ou's camp... what even are they!

Their traffic and popularity are not bad, but as for acting skills, forget it, most of them don't have that stuff.

As for their other advantages, such as being handsome, tall, and popular... in front of Luo Mo, they are simply not worth mentioning.

You all are popular, but Laozi... is scorching!

Popular to the point of being scorching.

Fu Hong, in whom he had placed high hopes, could not overcome his psychological shadow and was unable to get into character, his emotions completely collapsed; what could Luo Mo do?

Tomorrow, it is time to go on stage to perform.

"This is tricky," Luo Mo said in his heart.

This variable later reached the ears of Song Ge, who had been slacking off.

Water Emperor little Song immediately began to gloat.

"Hahaha, no one left to use, right!"

"Isn't this because you missed out on a great general like me?"

"Anyway, I won't defect to you; I'm only sticking with Director Tian."

In Song Ge's view, among the younger generation of men in this camp, his acting skills are the best.

Of course, Luo Mo does not think so; he feels that Fu Hong is a bit better than him.

"Song Ge's acting is too greasy, just like the person himself, very greasy."

"When he acts, he always gives people a feeling of being overly intense, which makes people feel uncomfortable watching."

"At the same time, his handling of certain parts is very deliberate and not very natural."

Luo Mo feels that Song Ge is called the Water Emperor not only because that foreign award has very low gold content, but also because his acting skills do not actually have high recognition from the Masses.

"And he's too old," Luo Mo added in his heart.

Does he still think he's a fresh young meat?

Time passed second by second, which made the other few Actors in the upcoming 【Family】 short film feel immense pressure and uncertainty.

In the current situation, they also do not know how to solve it.

Everyone hopes to present an excellent work in the end, preferably taking first place overall, with everyone having their own brilliant performance.

Just like many of Luo Mo's god-tier stages in "Creating Idols," even now there are still people who go to rewatch them, and they can still be dug up from time to time to gain a wave of fans.

Classic stages have too many benefits!

In the end, after struggling internally for a long time, Xu Ruihong decided to have a good talk with Director Luo.

If it really doesn't work, he can only sacrifice him, and then let Fu Hong practice more and overcome it.

Luo Mo listened to Xu Ruihong's words and took a deep look at the Middle-aged Person before him.

Xu Ruihong just smiled.

Before he came, there was a scale in his heart.

On one end of the scale was "Director Show."

On the other end of the scale was Luo Mo.

After much consideration, he felt that Luo Mo as a person carried more weight than "Director Show."

Look at those supporting roles in "Nirvana in Fire," many of them are also Middle-aged Persons, or even in Old Age.

How popular did they become?

It's just that the variety show is laid out right here in reality, while people are very complex creatures and may not necessarily remember your kindness.

How could Xu Ruihong, who has been in the entertainment industry for over a decade, not know this point?

There is a great risk involved here, because what you are choosing is human nature.

Fortunately, many people in the industry have heard a thing or two about Luo Mo's character, which gave him more confidence.

Luo Mo took a deep look at Xu Ruihong, then suddenly turned around, faced the camera, and said word by word:

"Can I act it myself?"
