Flying back to Hong Kong, Locke is now looking forward to the broadcast of "The Condor Heroes", because he now urgently needs overlord points to download songs for Liu Yifei, otherwise what good songs can he redeem with the more than 1,100 overlord points he has now.

To be honest, Locke didn't know which kind of song to redeem for her, after all, he hadn't heard Liu Yifei sing, it had to be suitable, and the system didn't support invalid refunds.

The days of returning to filming are boring, even if he and Liu Yifei are getting more and more popular, the rumors that sound like a matter of truth have not been able to bring a trace of fun to his life.

When filming, teasing Matthew is probably Locke's biggest entertainment. He now has more and more faith in recovering his memory, but there is no good script and a good director, this is a good woman who is difficult to cook without rice.

In any case, when a monk for a day has to hit the clock for a day, the award of the international A-category film festival is not so easy to get, and Locke is not in a hurry at all.

"Good news for you. Sister Zeng mysteriously pulled Locke, "I heard that director Ang Lee has a new film plan, we can go and join in the fun." ”

Locke was playing with the PSP in his hand, and after hearing Sister Zeng's words, he couldn't help but put it down, raised his head and asked, "Is that the one who filmed "Brokeback Mountain" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"? ”

Sister Zeng rolled her eyes, "Yes, it's that Ang Lee." His new film is only known as "Lust and Caution", which sounds like he is going to go to a film festival, an award ceremony or something. The news is not very clear, so I will inquire again. ”

After Sister Zeng took two steps, she retreated. "Look at my memory, I forgot to tell you the most important thing, that is, "Lust and Caution" recruits actors nationwide, and his selection of actors is a must, you see that Zhang Ziyi and others are all promoted to the world by him. If you are fancied, then your worth is estimated to increase by I don't know how many times. ”

Locke thought that although it was a nationwide open selection of actors, most of them were used as foils, and only a few people could enter his sight and let him choose. This kind of international-level director must be interested in the actor and actress-level figure, otherwise others have no impression in his mind.

This is an opportunity, Locke told himself, it is not easy to meet such a good director, as long as the script is good enough, then it is not a problem to hit those film festivals. If he misses this opportunity, Locke doesn't know how long he will have to wait before he sees it again.

In today's China, the commercial atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger, and there are fewer and fewer good movies with real connotation that can go out and win awards. That's why Locke feels that his likelihood of becoming a hegemon will only decrease. In his opinion, if you can't do it, you can redeem a script yourself and let someone else shoot it.

This is just an episode, Locke just thought about it, he still has to put all his creative passion into the filming of "Baby Project", Locke is now proficient, many times he only needs to shoot two or three times to pass, he is saving the overlord, ready to exchange songs for Liu Yifei and redeem the script for himself.

According to his current ability to earn overlord points, it is undoubtedly more difficult to redeem a script with the potential to win awards than to ascend to the sky. The growth of overlord points is slow, and his own ability to consume overlord points is too strong.

Locke's acting skills slowly improved under Chen Musheng's delicate guidance, although he has not yet advanced, but Locke can still feel his progress. Locke's current acting skills should be among the best among the new generation of actors, as an actor who came out of Xiaolong, the acting training provided by the system is indispensable.

After another filming, Sister Zeng smiled at Locke and said, "I'll tell you a good news." I just learned from Yang Fan that Ang Lee is indeed choosing actors nationwide, and every actor is possible. The first thing Ang Lee looked at was his appearance, that is, he asked interested actors to send a hard photo of his Republic of China outfit, and he screened it first. ”

Locke was indeed a little happy, he was still very confident in his appearance, isn't the Republic of China dress just a suit? Locke's favorite thing is a suit, he smiled and nodded.

"Don't rejoice too soon, though. I heard that many actors have to participate. Do you have the confidence to surpass Tony Leung, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Leung Jiahui, Andy Lau and others?" Seeing Locke's happy appearance, Sister Zeng couldn't help but pour cold water on him.

It's better to have a chance than not to have a chance. Locke's idea is to do it and do it well. He now wants to know what "Lust and Caution" is going to shoot in the Republic of China, and the age of the actor is a problem.

This made Locke have to be cautious, "You can help me inquire about what the identity of the protagonist is and what class of characters, I can figure it out." He said to Sister Zeng.

Sister Zeng can also see that Locke attaches great importance to it, although she is not very optimistic that Locke will be able to take over this movie in her heart, but these are all news that he should grasp as an economic person, he did not refuse, and nodded with a smile.

Sister Zeng is also a handsome guy, very delicate, and her figure is much thinner than Locke, like a bean sprout. He was dressed in slim clothes and looked skinny. Locke used to say that he would be blown away by the wind in NMG.

After a pause, Locke remembered the system in his mind and saw if the system had any detailed information for his reference.

Entering the system, Locke received a task prompt, he was very excited, how his tasks are getting fewer and fewer, and the rewards are also very small, when will he be able to get together the overlord points.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the quest 'Fight for the Actor', task completion condition: stand out in the first round of casting of Ang Lee's new work "Lust and Caution". Task reward: 1000 overlord points, one acting training, and one Republic of China etiquette training. ”

This surprised Locke, what a generous reward!!A full thousand overlord points, and two corresponding trainings, this task must be completed no matter what it is for.

However, seeing that the rewards of the task are so rich, he has a bad feeling in his heart, that is, through a casting similar to an audition, there is such a rich reward, and the difficulty is definitely not low.

This battle for hard photos has risen to the highest level in his mind again, reaching the highest level. In fact, many actors who are recognized as famous and have high acting skills don't use this hard photo, they go directly to the next link, audition.

This photo is just a chance for newcomers like Locke to see if there are any dark horses popping up.

Locke's original intention of opening the system was to see if the system had any information related to "Lust and Caution", and he searched for this movie in the resource library, and unexpectedly there were stills on it.

This little bug made Locke very excited. He looked at the stills, it was Tony Leung and an unknown actress. The actress was wearing a pure green cheongsam, and she looked like she had been precipitated by the years. Tony Leung, on the other hand, was wearing a white shirt and a black vest, looking at the front affectionately with his electric eyes.

Locke looked at the list of leading actors and found that the male protagonist was Tony Leung and the female protagonist was Tang Wei. In the introduction, Locke saw the most crucial point, the film is adapted from Eileen Chang's famous novel "Lust and Caution".

This made Locke ecstatic, and it was better to have a clue than to be confused. He wrote it down carefully, and was going to ask Wang Yantao to help buy a copy later. Take a look at the original book and find a feeling.

After exiting the system, Locke happened to see Sister Zeng walk in, and he said directly, "Hi, Locke." I know a little bit of the inside scoop. He said this a little loudly, and the whole crew turned their heads to look at them.

Locke's face froze, he turned his head, and whispered, "I don't know him, I don't know him." ”

Jackie Chan walked over with a smile, and he said to Locke, "Are you also going to participate in the selection of Ang Lee's "Lust and Caution"?"

Locke was taken aback, "How do you know?

"Don't worry, I can't act in the movies of the Republic of China, I can only act in martial arts and kung fu movies. Fang Zuming wanted to compete for the second male lead, so I knew. ”

Male No. 2? Locke turned around in his mind, and the male No. 2 displayed in the system seemed to be Wang Leehom, right?

"Oh, I just want to try, and I don't have any hope, after all, I have to compete with Tony Leung and others. ”

Jackie Chan left after chatting with him for a few words, and at this time Locke said to Sister Zeng: "Can you ask Wang Yantao to help buy a novel by Zhang Ailing, I want to see the original book of "Lust and Caution". ”

This was Sister Zeng's turn to be surprised, "I haven't said it yet, how do you know what I'm going to say? How do you know that this is adapted from Zhang Ailing's novel? Could it be that Jackie Chan told you? No." ”

Locke didn't say anything, just laughed mysteriously twice. He is not easy in his heart, he is not satisfied with just passing the first round of casting, he wants to become the star of this movie.

Because he saw the introduction of "Lust and Caution" in the system, Ang Lee won the Golden Lion Award at the 2007 Venice Film Festival again with this movie, and the praise was very high. Then Locke has a great chance to get his memories back. This is what he wants to achieve at all costs.

He secretly made up his mind that even if he used up the overlord points of the system, he would win this role, which was too important to him, and it was related to the height of his achievements in life.
