Today is January 20th, Le Mingxiao's 23rd birthday, but the birthday leave he was looking forward to has not come, because he still has to go to the company to participate in the makeup trial of "The Winner is the King" and take makeup trial photos.

"The Winner is the King" is the company's 30th anniversary anniversary drama, the whole drama has a huge structure, many characters, and there are no less than 100 famous characters alone.

The drama is set in an alternate dynasty, and the whole story revolves around the struggle for the throne between three princes. Among them, the eldest prince Shen Lingzhao is played by Li Xin, and the third prince Shen Lingyun is played by Qi Yao, and the role of the seventh prince Shen Lingyan naturally falls to Le Mingxiao.

The three characters have their own characteristics, the roles are very distinct, in addition to the fact that there will be a lot of rivalry between the brothers, each of them also arranged an emotional scene between men and women. Among them, the female number one is a princess from a foreign race, played by the popular Xiaohuadan Zhao Qingyun, and there will be emotional entanglements between the third prince and the seventh prince.

And the Seven Princes also have a relationship scene, which was re-added after the script was revised. Originally, the character was set to be the adopted son of the Sixth Emperor Uncle of the Dynasty, and he was also the companion who grew up with the Seven Emperors since childhood. This role is not only the playmate of the Seven Princes, but also has played a very important role in the process of the Seven Princes competing for the throne, and it can be said that it is a big supporting role with a heavy role, but because of Bian Xiangdong, this role was replaced, and the script had to be revised again.

Originally, this kind of □□ could not be revealed to the outside world, but Le Mingxiao was curious, and he finally got the first-hand news from screenwriter Huang Ti. After the script is revised, the original role will change from a male role to a female role, that is, the adopted son of the Sixth Emperor Uncle will become an adopted daughter, and what remains unchanged is that she is still the companion of the Seven Princes, so she needs to dress as a man since she was a child.

With such a role, you don't have to think about it to know that the role will definitely be outstanding, and the person who plays this role is Xiao Zhenzhen, a newcomer recently praised by Starlight Media. When he heard the news, Le Mingxiao almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, and he swore that this was definitely the result of the full operation of his agent Lin Chen.

According to the original script, the Seven Princes played by him were only unrequited in love with the female number one, and the Seven Princes were alone until the end of the whole play, and now they suddenly added a relationship scene to him, so the ending can be imagined. He just played a couple with Xiao Zhenzhen in the movie "Daughter Country", but he didn't expect to continue his relationship so soon, it seems that their on-screen couple don't want to untie in the short term. I have to say that the company's attention to Xiao Zhenzhen, a little girl, is really not small.

In addition to a few protagonists, the other important characters are almost all famous, and each of them is not small. Although this drama is a New Year's drama of Starlight Media, it still invited several important foreign aids, such as Zhao Qingyun, the actor of the female number one, who has her own independent studio, and the role of Uncle Six Emperors is played by Shao Yu, the master of Jingshang Entertainment.

However, Le Mingxiao wants to know who the emperor is to play, after all, it is his father in the play, of course he will be very concerned, but when asked about the director and screenwriter, the two said that they would keep it secret, and the screenwriter teacher also said mysteriously that this is a big gimmick, and it will never be announced until the last moment.

Now Le Mingxiao is even more curious, he has gone through all the actors in the circle who are suitable for the role of the emperor in his mind one by one, but he still can't sit down. It stands to reason that the current cast is attractive enough, and he really can't think of any actor who needs to be so mysterious that he can't say anything about himself.

Once when he was at home, Le Mingxiao suddenly thought of this question again, so he naturally asked Yan Duo, but he didn't expect Yan Duo to just reply to him, and you will know when the time comes.

"Who the hell is it that wants to hide it like this?" Le Mingxiao was not happy now, and directly pressed Yan Duo's back from behind, hugging Yan Duo's neck and shaking it again and again, "Brother, you just sue me, I promise not to reveal the slightest bit of information to the outside, just say it, can you bear to look at me curious to death?"

"So exaggerated?" Yan Duo turned his head to look at Le Mingxiao, and asked with a smile, the latter quickly nodded like pounding garlic, and Yan Duo said again, "Why don't you guess first?"

"If I can guess it, do I still ask you?" Le Mingxiao said with a resentful face, but his thoughts still raced, he blinked his eyes, and said, "Is it Lin Yuan?"

In the last play, Lin Yuan played father and son with him, if he played father and son again in this play, it would be a selling point, and with Lin Yuan's strength and status, he was not only suitable for this role, but also would definitely be able to calm the scene.

Le Mingxiao looked at Yan Duo with confidence, and unexpectedly poured down a basin of cold water: "Lin Yuan rarely accepts ancient dramas, not to mention that this is not a real drama in the end." ”

"Who else could it be?" Le Mingxiao tilted his head and thought for a long time, then suddenly his eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "It can't be Ren Chaoyuan!"

Looking at Le Mingxiao's frightened expression, Yan Duo couldn't help but want to laugh, but deliberately teased him ominously: "Do you think he is suitable for this role?"

Le Mingxiao's expression was a little wilted, and he snorted: "There are still some suitable ones, but if they are suitable or not, if it is for the market demand, it is not impossible to understand if you really look for him." ”

"Really?" Yan Duo said with a smile, "Then I'll call Director Jian Yì now." ”

"No!" Le Mingxiao was in a hurry, hugging Yan Duo's neck tightly and not letting go, "I don't want to play against him, and I don't allow you to look for him again!"

"Okay, okay, let's talk. Seeing that the child was about to cry, Yan Duo quickly changed his words, he patted Le Mingxiao's cheek and said, "Don't worry, I definitely won't look for him, and the person I'm looking for will definitely like it." ”

"Really?"

Yan Duo nodded and said, "I promise, I won't let you down when the time comes." ”

"Oh well. Anyway, Yan Duo gave him a reassuring pill, and Le Mingxiao stopped asking for the time being.

On the day of the makeup trial, it was also Le Mingxiao's 23rd birthday. Early in the morning, he got up from the bed early, and originally wanted to eat a bowl of longevity noodles with Yan Duo, but he didn't expect that the man got up earlier than himself, and went out when he didn't know. Le Mingxiao had no choice but to eat some by himself, and then took the car to pick him up and went to the company.

On the way, Le Mingxiao still sent a message to Yan Duo, and reported his itinerary to Yan Duo today, saying that he would definitely rush home after he was busy with work, and when the time came, they would blow out candles and eat cake together. After editing, he thought about it, and added another sentence at the end, reminding Yan Duo not to forget to promise his birthday surprise.

The absolute protagonists of this play are the three princes, especially the three princes played by Qi Yao and the seven princes played by Le Mingxiao are the ones with the most scenes, Le Mingxiao heard that their costumes are specially designed by someone, and there are hundreds of costumes for him and Qi Yao.

When Le Mingxiao arrived at the studio, the staff were already ready for the scene, the director and screenwriter were there, and they were talking with a person, and that person was Yan Duo.

Unexpectedly, Yan Duo would also appear here, Le Mingxiao shouldn't react for a while, but just when he was stunned in place, Yan Duo's gaze suddenly turned to his side.

Le Mingxiao couldn't pretend that he didn't see it, so he had to walk over and politely say Mr. Yan, why are you free to come here, and then greeted the director and screenwriter respectively.

Yan Duo just nodded and said, "Come and take makeup photos?"

"Hmm. Le Mingxiao responded.

"That's going to come on. Yan Duo smiled and patted Le Mingxiao on the shoulder, Le Mingxiao reflexively raised his eyebrows, but in front of outsiders, he didn't feel good, so he had to press it down.

At this time, the director suddenly called the assistant in charge of costumes and asked her to take Le Mingxiao to change clothes, and finally rescued him from this slightly embarrassing situation.

Although the background of this play is set in the Alternate Dynasty, the director and screenwriter are fans of the Western Han Dynasty, and they naturally refer to the history of the Western Han Dynasty when making the setting, and the costumes are also based on the improved design of the Western Han Dynasty.

Le Mingxiao's first set of clothes to try was the prince's court dress, which is also a set of clothes he often wears in the play. The set of deep clothes on his body fits very well, lining out Le Mingxiao's good figure with wide shoulders and thin waist, but after all, it is the first time he wears this kind of ancient costume, how can he feel a little awkward, especially when he sticks on his hood and wears a jade crown, he always feels lightheaded, and he can't even walk.

He felt awkward, but when he returned to the studio, he was unanimously praised by the staff present. The director smiled and said to the screenwriter: "This is exactly the well-behaved and smart little prince in the script." ”

The screenwriter also nodded and said yes, yes, but Le Mingxiao was very embarrassed to be praised, he looked left and right, and found that Yan Duo was no longer here, and he was finally relieved. Fortunately, he won't be allowed to see his embarrassed appearance, and it's time to practice hard when he goes back.

The filming officially began, Le Mingxiao is going to try seven or eight sets of clothes in a row today, in addition to the first set of court clothes, there are also the prince's regular clothes, the short fights that are usually worn to practice martial arts, the clothes worn when walking the rivers and lakes when leaving the palace, and the clothes when he is in a foreign race.

At first, Le Mingxiao was still a little unable to find his state, but fortunately, with the patient guidance of the director and photographer, he himself also had a good understanding after all, and soon he gradually got better, and the shooting process was much faster.

Just as the third costume was being filmed, there was a commotion at the scene, and Le Mingxiao found that the staff around him were all looking in a certain direction, and exclamations sounded from time to time around.

Le Mingxiao became curious, and followed everyone's line of sight to find that direction, and saw a man with a high crown and wide sleeves walking towards this side surrounded by several staff members.
