If the role He Xin wants to play the most in his life is ranked, then Xu Wenqiang's role will definitely be ranked in the top five. Just like Liu Huaqiang in "Conquest", Jiang Defu in "Parents' Love", and Takeda in "The Wind", these are all feelings.

When he first learned that Gao Xixi was going to shoot "New Shanghai Beach", he really wanted to recommend himself, but unfortunately on the one hand, he got the news relatively late, and the producer had already set Brother Xiao Ming, who had risen sharply in recent years. On the other hand, it is also because Sun Li and her girlfriend starred in Feng Chengcheng and Fang Yanyun, if she inserts it again, she may become a Shura field in and out of the play.

At this time, he watched Brother Xiao Ming on TV imitate Brother Fa in various ways, and to be honest, he really felt very embarrassed.

Note that "New Shanghai Beach" is an adaptation, not a remake, and it is another creative mode that can be carried out without the influence of the original. For example, Feng Jingyao played by Mr. Li Xuejian performed his own characteristics, which is the complete Li Xuejian version of Feng Jingyao, which has nothing to do with Feng Jingyao played by the father of the actor in the original "luminous script", but has also been raised to a higher level.

Brother Xiao Ming is also from Nortel's class, is it just this level? To put it bluntly, he is still not prepared enough.

When "New Shanghai Beach" was launched, he rushed over from another crew almost non-stop, and then came up and started filming. Without sufficient time to prepare, then it can only be imitation.

As the saying goes: the fist does not leave the hand, and the song does not leave the mouth. The same is true for acting, which requires constant training to be able to improve. Once you get used to perfunctory, patterned acting, then your acting skills will stagnate or even degrade.

The so-called "debut is the peak", most of the cases are like this. In later generations, Brother Xiao Ming was dissed by the audience in various ways, and his acting skills were not unreasonable.

In fact, after his girlfriend got the script of "New Shanghai Beach", he also read it carefully and wrote a biography of Xu Wenqiang.

In his eyes, this Xu Wenqiang has a lot of room for creation.

For example, he wrote a biography that set Xu Wenqiang as a student leader at Fudan University, and his former classmate and best friend Lu Qiubai (referring to the character of Qu En in "The Right Way in the World") worked in a poster pavilion, which was the most typical literati image in Shanghai at that time.

In the original version, Xu Wenqiang fled Shanghai and went to Hong Kong to find a job as a newspaper contributor, which reflects Xu Wenqiang's essence as a literati.

As long as the positioning of the character is found, then the rest is simple, such as the idealistic plot left on his body, and the insistence on something in his heart.

Shanghai Tang is a place of strength and weakness, and the rules of survival here are completely different from those of the literati world. The literati like to be reasonable, and Shanghai Tang only talks about power.

Indeed, Xu Wenqiang was invincible at the beginning of his expedition to Shanghai, and soon won the favor of Feng Jingyao, the highest authority in Shanghai, not only becoming his left and right arm, but also about to become his son-in-law. Maybe one day he will be able to replace Feng Jingyao and become a master of Shanghai Tang.

However, Xu Wenqiang is still a literati after all, and he can't be like Feng Jingyao, a hooligan who has been in Shanghai for so long, and he has no ties in his heart except interests. Xu Wenqiang has too many ties in his heart, and most of these ties have nothing to do with his own interests, which dooms him to a tragic fate in Shanghai......

With such an understanding, can we create another Xu Wenqiang?

He Xin even thinks that if he comes to act, maybe like Xiao Feng played by Hu Jun back then, surpassing the classics and turning himself into a classic.

"Alas!"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.

Cheng Hao, who was eating cantaloupe sitting on the side, turned his head and glanced at him with a strange gaze, and asked, "Good and decent, what are you sighing for?"

"Well, I just thought of something else. ”

Cheng Hao didn't care, the two had been together for so long, she had long been used to her boyfriend's occasional inexplicable distraction. She is not surprised by this, as many artists have this problem, and inspiration is often born in this moment of "distraction".

She saw her boyfriend come back to her senses and asked, "Are you really going to take that ghost movie?"

"This is not a ghost movie, it's a love movie!"

He Xin corrected his girlfriend's nonsensical remarks very seriously, and pondered for a moment before shaking his head and saying, "It's hard to say now, let's talk to Teacher Yu next Monday." ”

Cheng Hao has always admired his boyfriend's vision, but this time he obviously had a question mark on his head: "Is this reliable?"

She is obviously questioning Teacher Yu's ability to be a rookie director. After all, film is the art of the director, and the quality of a director almost determines the style and quality of the film.

The reason why I say almost, is because sometimes there are exceptions, such as Lu Chuan's debut novel "Looking for a Gun".

To be honest, his girlfriend's question is also He Xin's question, if an actor doesn't trust the director, it's a very annoying thing.

He smiled bitterly and said, "That's why we have to talk!"

The reason why he hesitated was mainly because he liked this relatively new theme, and as for how to establish trust between him and the rookie director Yu Shi, he could only rely on communication to exchange their understanding of the storyline and characters, in order to reach a consensus.

Cheng Hao pursed her lips, although she didn't say anything more, she didn't approve of her boyfriend taking over the play. It's not for anything else, but purely for the sake of your boyfriend's career development.

He Xin has come along the way, even if he has made a lot of underground movies that cannot be released in the mainland, he has won him a lot of awards and reputation.

Even though the later filming of "Wuji" and "Seven Swords" caused a lot of controversy, the box office was real. "Wuji" is 180 million, and "Seven Swords" is 80 million. If you count the nearly 100 million of "Stone" and the 60 million of "The Ballad of Yunshui", as well as the previous literary films, the total box office of the movies starring He Xin has infinitely approached 500 million.

You must know that in this year, only a single mainland film has a single box office, and only the films of the three directors of Guoshi, Chen Dadao and Feng Xiaogang can break 100 million. As an actor, He Xin's total box office in the mainland is about to exceed 500 million, which is definitely a rare existence in the circle. If you compare it more intuitively, it is probably equivalent to the total box office in later generations at least exceeding seven or eight billion, or even ten billion.

The more an actor reaches this level, the more he needs to cherish his feathers. Cheng Hao is very much in favor of his boyfriend reducing the frequency of taking on the drama and slowing down the pace of work, but he strongly disapproves of him taking risks at this time.

However, she also knows that her boyfriend is obedient to her on the surface, but he is a person with great ideas in the field of work. Otherwise, he would not have pushed down the CCTV drama at the beginning, nor would he have posted money to help Ning Hao complete "Incense", let alone desperately invest in "Wulin Gaiden".

She immediately diverted the topic, frowned and said, "Director Gao called me to make an appointment today, I didn't want to take it, but I promised him before." ”

"That's true!" He Xin nodded, muttering in his mouth.

In fact, the most fearful thing in this business is to easily agree and owe favors to others. What would you do if you were to play a bad show?

Then he asked, "What kind of play?"

"It is said that it is an adaptation of Zhang Hatshui's film called "Drunk Gold Fans". ”

Cheng Hao was obviously a little hesitant when she said this, in fact, her previous promise to Gao Xixi was secondary.

Although she said that for the film "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart", she had already said that she would not accept any other dramas in the near future. But the most important thing is because the two "Gold Powder Family" and "Laughing Karma" that were previously put on the screen have been extremely successful. And Gao Xixi made it clear to her on the phone that this adaptation of "Drunk Gold Fans" is also a big production with an investment of tens of millions.

When He Xin heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he blurted out: "You play Tian Peizhi!"

Speaking of which, he almost forgot about this stubble, you must know that the reason why he was obsessed with Cheng Hao in his previous life was not only a heartthrob, but also Tian Peizhi.

Looking back now, the role of Tian Peizhi is definitely the pinnacle of Cheng Hao in the original time and space. This character is certainly not as popular as the heartthrob in "Pink Girl", but it is extremely artistic.

"Hey, have you seen this?" Cheng Hao said in surprise.

It should be said that among Zhang Hatshui's many masterpieces, "Drunk Gold Fans" is relatively unpopular.

"Uh, yes!"

He replied vaguely, and hurriedly asked, "Is there a conflict with "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart"?"

Cheng Hao shook his head and said with an annoyed expression: "It's not a conflict to talk about, and Gao Dao's side will start up in October at the earliest." I'm just afraid that I won't have time to prepare, and I don't know what kind of state I will be in after filming "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart", if I really take it, I won't be able to act at that time, isn't it a delay!"

The girlfriend's worries are not unreasonable, when an actor is fully committed to a role, it is difficult to get out of it. He Xin finished filming "Lan Yu" like this back then, and in the end, he used his secret love for his girlfriend, and then self-hypnotized to continuously amplify this secret love, which only then extracted himself.

He didn't have a good way to do this kind of thing, not to mention that the result hadn't happened yet. He was only silent for a moment before he looked at his girlfriend's eyes very seriously and said, "If you give up the role of Tian Peizhi, I think you will definitely regret it in the future." ”
