MTL - You Don’t Understand The Pain Of Being Popular-Chapter 83 The eighty-third day of the explosion
The name of the martial arts drama is "Order of the End of the World". Wen Xuan was fascinated by the ups and downs of the plot just after reading the beginning of the script.
The world is full of turmoil, and the heroine makes the enemy suffer the consequences step by step.
And the role Wen Xuan wants to play - the female head of the Xuanyue faction is the ultimate goal of the heroine's revenge.
In other words, she is the ultimate villain boss.
The head of the Xuanyue School is also known as Qiu Wanying. As a woman, she is self-reliant and skilled in martial arts. She not only founded the Xuanyue School by herself, but also led a group of Xuanyue School's disciples to keep the people in peace.
In the troubled times, she is affectionate and righteous, and has a heart for the common people. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is a hero among women.
All martial arts people all over the world admire Qiu Wanying, the head of the Xuanyue School.
But it is such an admirable senior who is a hypocrite with a good face.
Of course, after a series of revenges by the heroine, Qiu Wanying's true face was exposed, and her evil deeds were made public.
Her martial arts were abolished, and she had to pass it on to her own senior disciple. Although he was lucky enough to survive in the end, his reputation was ruined and his cultivation was lost.
The Xuanyue faction she founded was also forced to disband.
This villain is completely bad, but at the same time, she also has the charm of a villain.
She is powerful, ruthless, has her own firm goals, and at the same time has extremely deep strategies and skills.
Such a good-looking villain will undoubtedly win the love of a large number of audiences.
After Wen Xuan finished reading the script, her heart fluttered.
The role of this character runs through the whole play, with depth and charm. Although he is only the second female lead, if he plays well, he may not be worse than the first female lead!
"Yao Bianliang is really kind enough to give me such a good role?" After reading the script, Wen Xuan became even more confused.
She and Yao Bianliang didn't have any friendship, if they really wanted to talk about it, the two of them would have formed a relationship long ago.
But now, Yao Bianliang is repaying his grievances with kindness. Not only did he not make trouble, but he gave her such a good resource!
And, according to the agent, Yao Bianliang didn't even ask her to audition. As long as she nodded and agreed, the role was immediately hers.
Wenxuan was puzzled and thought for a long time, and finally opened the chat dialog box with Yao Bianliang carefully.
Wen Xuan: "Mr. Yao, hello, I've finished reading the script."
"Oh, why is Sister Wen so polite? You can just call me by my name," Yao Bianliang on the other end of the phone quickly replied her, with a rather enthusiastic tone, "How is it? Are you satisfied with the script?"
Wen Xuan: "..."
Of course she was satisfied, but the problem was that it was so satisfying that she couldn't believe it was true.
After thinking about it, Wen Xuan asked carefully, "I want to ask, why did you ask me to play this role?"
"You also know that my acting skills are not very good, and my popularity and reputation have also dropped sharply."
When Yao Bianliang saw this problem, he found it difficult.
What can she say, is it possible to tell Wen Xuan that I just fell in love with your poor acting skills and poor reputation?
That doesn't sound very polite.
After pondering for a moment, Yao Bianliang remembered something, and finally his eyes lit up.
She said: "The reason why I invited Sister Wen is because I liked your previous plays very much. So I think that if you are allowed to play this role, you will definitely be able to perform well."
This is not a lie.
Yao Bianliang really likes "The Legend of Anhua" played by Wenxuan. This outstanding actress not only has terrible acting skills, but also makes the heroine collapse.
Therefore, letting her play the role of the head of the Xuanyue School will definitely meet Yao Bianliang's expectations perfectly!
When Wen Xuan saw this answer, she was stunned.
Yao Bianliang liked her previous plays very much? But... Most of the plays she acted in before are not classic works.
Yao Bianliang is extremely dedicated and dedicated to the pursuit of high-quality works, which is a fact recognized by everyone in the circle.
Wen Xuan has that self-knowledge, and with her acting skills in recent years, Yao Bianliang shouldn't be obsessed with it, and even invited her to cooperate regardless of the past.
So, excluding those commercial dramas, there is only one classic work left——
Wenxuan became a top-notch fairy tale group drama that was popular all over the country back then!
At this moment, Wen Xuan seemed to understand something, she clenched her hands slightly, and a burst of complicated emotions surged in her heart.
Although "The Order of the End of the World" is martial arts, and the drama she acted in is a fairy tale, but when you think about it carefully, the two dramas have many things in common.
"I didn't expect that after so many years, someone would invite me because of that drama..." Wen Xuan had mixed feelings in her heart.
A few years, under the influence of the big dye tank of the entertainment industry, is enough to turn a girl full of aura and hard work into a product of the assembly line.
Wen Xuan always felt that the time when she first entered the circle seemed extremely far away, but now looking back, it seems like it happened yesterday.
At that time, in order to perform a scene about hunger well, she could not eat enough food for three consecutive days, and successfully starved herself to the point where her limbs were weak, and she performed the most realistic state.
When acting in fight scenes, she never used a stand-in, and always played in person.
During that time, she got up early to exercise every day, trying to make the martial arts scenes more exciting. She still remembers a few of those movements and moves.
Although she was not popular at the time, she had a clear goal, and with the most sincere love, she lived a fulfilling life every day.
When did it start to change?
After gaining popularity, he was taken madly by his manager to shoot commercial endorsements? Or did you participate in various variety shows and gradually pay attention to your own traffic and popularity? Or, under the arrangement of the company, when she kept speculating on CP and engaged in marketing?
Wen Xuan didn't remember either.
She only knows that at the busiest time, she is constantly on the plane, flying back and forth before the city.
On the way to filming, she often needs to attend various activities, shoot various commercials and endorsements. Usually just after filming a scene, I immediately go to other places to shoot commercials, and come back two days later to continue filming.
In such an environment, she no longer had time to concentrate on thinking about the script, and she couldn't even memorize the lines in full.
She used more and more substitutes, but she herself was also getting busier.
Thoughts involuntarily popped up in her heart, Wenxuan couldn't help but think, if she was the same as before, staying in the crew all day, acting seriously and wholeheartedly...
Could it be that her acting skills are not so bad? Will the quality of her new drama not get worse?
But this is destined to be a hypothesis that cannot be answered.
Even if she is willing to give up the benefits brought by marketing endorsements, it is impossible for Ansheng Entertainment to agree.
Wen Xuan couldn't help but feel uncomfortable: "But Teacher Yao, you also know that my acting skills are getting worse and worse."
She has been unable to return to the highest level of the year.
Looking at Wen Xuan's reply, Yao Bianliang raised his eyebrows slightly.
Oh, and the acting is getting worse?
Doesn't Wenxuan mean that her performance in the new play may be worse than that in "The Legend of An Hua"?
There is such a good thing!
Yao Bianliang's eyes brightened slightly: "It's okay, I believe in your acting skills."
She firmly believes that Wen Xuan's acting skills will definitely get worse and worse, which will bring her different surprises!
Wen Xuan looked at Yao Bianliang's words, and her heart was full of thoughts.
Yao Bianliang believed in her acting skills so much that after "The Legend of An Hua" aired, he invited her regardless of the past!
But... She was really worried that she would disappoint the other party's kindness and trust.
Wen Xuan thought for a while and said, "Thank you. I'll give you an answer within two days, do you think it's okay?"
Yao Bianliang thought that Wenxuan would consider whether to play the role, so he readily agreed.
But what Wenxuan wants to consider is not whether to act, but how to act.
"Because of An Huachuan's poor performance, my career began to decline at an even faster rate..." Wen Xuan was in a complicated mood and her thoughts were chaotic.
She knew that she had been going downhill. If we continue in the previous direction, I am afraid that this downhill road will continue forever.
Maybe, it's time for a change.
For her, Yao Bianliang's invitation is undoubtedly the best time to make a change!
———
On Friday, the sun was shining brightly, and it was a nice sunny day.
Yao Bianliang happily came to the audition location, and Ling Huanxuan was there with her.
Seeing that Yao Bianliang was the only one here, Ling Huanxuan was a little surprised: "Sister Liang, where's the director?"
When she contacted Yao Bianliang before, she only knew that Yao Bianliang was the lead actor and investor, and she was in contact with the screenwriter and director.
She originally thought that Yao Bianliang had contacted the director after searching for such a long time. But until now, she still hasn't seen the director.
The director can't be absent on such an important occasion as casting, right?
The corners of Yao Bianliang's lips raised slightly, revealing a smile: "Sister Ling, the director has already arrived."
Ling Huanxuan looked over in doubt, a question mark slowly appeared on his head.
The director is here already? But besides herself, there is only Yao Bianliang left here...
Ling Huanxuan was shocked: "You mean, you plan to become this director?"
"Well," Yao Bianliang nodded, "I've contacted several directors before, but I haven't been able to find a suitable one. After thinking about it, I finally think it's better to play by myself."
After being scolded, the director of "The Legend of An Hua" learned from the pain and planned to make a film and television work with depth and connotation, rushing to win awards.
Yao Bianliang has already stumbled several times in high-quality and in-depth works, and of course it is impossible to cooperate with the other party. In desperation, he had no choice but to give up.
It's not that there are suitable director candidates, but unfortunately, Yao Bianliang was not very satisfied after reading the materials.
An excellent director, she felt guilty when she saw the other party's resume. Cooperating with such a big guy, wouldn't it be a proper hit?
And seeing that kind of transparent director, Yao Bianliang still felt guilty.
Once bitten, twice shy. She couldn't help but feel sad when she remembered that every time she chose randomly, she could always choose the hidden boss.
No, she must not repeat the same mistakes.
After several ideological struggles, Yao Bianliang finally came up with a wonderful plan——
She can be her own director!
It is not uncommon for an actor to switch careers to become a director, directing and acting in his own play.
It is true that she is a senior actor, but a good actor does not mean that she can be a good director.
She has no experience and no professionalism. Even if you try your best to make a film, you may not be able to make a good film.
In this way, she can not only firmly control the entire crew and avoid the possibility of backstabbing, but also can easily make this show extremely bad.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to have the best of both worlds!
"Why, Sister Ling, you don't have confidence in me?" Yao Bianliang blinked at Ling Huanxuan.
Ling Huanxuan: "..."
It's not that I don't have confidence, it's just a little hard to believe.
It is not easy for an actor to become a director. Yao Bianliang has no experience as a director, does she really know how to make a movie?
Facing Yao Bianliang's confident eyes, Ling Huanxuan's lips moved, and the words came to his lips, but he still didn't say them in the end.
"Okay," she sighed helplessly, "You are the funder and the investor, of course you have the final say."
After a pause, she added: "However, during the filming process, I also want to give some guidance to the actors... Is this okay?"
Ling Huanxuan was a little worried.
She believed that with Yao Bianliang's ability, he would definitely be able to play a good heroine, but it was not certain whether the other party could be a good director.
Therefore, if she, the screenwriter, is on the sidelines, the risk can be reduced a lot.
Of course Yao Bianliang had no objection: "Of course."
In fact, it wasn't just Ling Huanxuan who was a little worried, but Yao Bianliang himself was not completely at ease.
Although she has never been a director, she has a system to supervise her, and she dare not neglect her duties.
When she becomes the director, there is a 99% chance that she will make a bad drama, but there is also a 1% chance that she will shoot a better work by mistake.
If her luck is extremely extreme and she performs supernormally, wouldn't that be bad?
As the screenwriter of "The Legend of An Hua", Ling Huanxuan has rich experience in shooting street dramas and is a rare talent.
With her assistance, the chances of this drama hitting the street are naturally greater!
The two looked at each other and smiled. They all thought they had achieved their goals, so they were naturally very satisfied with the result.
And at this moment, only two "dong dong" knocks were heard on the door, and the assistant pushed the door open and walked in.
"Ms. Yao, Sister Ling, all the actors who came to audition are here," the assistant said, "Shall we start now?"
Yao Bianliang was refreshed, finally came!
"Okay, let's start now."
