Chapter Twenty-Seven: Robbing 'Zhang Wuji'
"Lai Shuiqing, a well-known director, is currently co-producing the TV series "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" to select actors, your first impression - a handsome big boy, is very in line with his positioning for the role of Song Qingshu in his heart, if you intend to compete for this role, the success rate is 100%. Hint, the other party doesn't feel that he has achieved something, and you will accept a supporting role, and at the same time, as a TV series adapted from Jin Yong's martial arts novel, even if you are selected as a certain role, you must make a decision in front of Jin Yong. ”
Call!
Yang Yichen's eyes lit up, and the next few minutes were recalled in his mind, this is a very successful martial arts drama in the category of youth idols, which opened a wave of large-scale remakes of Jin Yong's martial arts dramas in the mode of handsome guys and beauties. Huanzhu Gege", just because there are too many such remakes and most of them are shoddy, everyone is a little lackluster to watch, and there is no such grand scene as Gege comes out to go out for a walk every summer vacation.
Song Qingshu?
Thinking of this, Yang Yichen has to admire the strength of the skills brought by this rebirth, not boasting or being proud, he has achieved the achievements of a newcomer in the music world, and the entertainment industry is also a popular idol drama, an important supporting role in a movie that will be recorded in the history of Xiangjiang in the future, to play a supporting role in a TV series, no wonder Lai Shuiqing is just a flash in his mind according to his image, and he didn't dare to have extravagant hopes.
"Zhang Wuji, Zhang Wuji, I want to play Zhang Wuji!"
If it is the male number one, it is almost the same, Yang Yichen always feels that Su Youpeng's Zhang Wuji is in line with the simplicity of the character setting and a little bit of indecisiveness, but it does not reflect the chivalrous spirit of this character, at least it is not fully displayed, and it is somewhat different from the image description in the original work, first of all, this height, he is 100% 173 without official information, Yang Yichen had seen him on the set before his rebirth, and he was at least a few centimeters shorter than the information if he wore heightened shoes at the event. Although the TV series can erase the sense of height to a certain extent, but in front of the fight camera, in ancient times, the caftan fell to the ankle, once it is a panorama, and there are matching characters next to it, no matter how you look at it, there is an indescribable awkwardness, I can't see a little bit of the feeling of the long body, tall and straight, strong muscles, and strong physique described in the original book, as well as the baby face, he does not deny that Su Youpeng's interpretation is very successful, but he is confident that he can perform better, a good costume film is not easy to encounter, Costume films that can create a lot of influence and cooperate with many old drama bones are even more difficult to touch.
Yang Yichen rummaged through his memory to find good films in the past two years, TV series that are suitable for his age and have great influence, but he really didn't think about it, if he hadn't accompanied Zhou Xing to drink late today and met Director Lai, it was really possible to miss it, idol dramas have not started, fashion dramas have not seen the market, and young people are suitable for serving as the male number one, maybe there is only this costume drama, why didn't I think of it before, and now it depends on whether the male number one is decided.
"The male No. 1 Zhang Wuji has not yet set the role, he has been in contact with Su Youpeng, intends to play, has not seen Jin Yong, the success rate of wanting to play the male No. 1 is currently less than 20%, in view of the popularity, Jian yì follow-up, one of the key points is recognized in front of Jin Yong, and the second key point is to let the producer and director recognize your acting skills."
Is it worth following up?
It only took three minutes for Yang Yichen to decide to compete, first of all, the opportunity to be the number one male in the TV series, followed by the influence and reputation of this play, and finally the lineup of this play, many small supporting roles are from professional classes, not to mention a few big supporting roles, the shooting cycle is longer than the time of the movie together, and you will definitely be able to learn more.
The most important thing is that this is a co-produced TV series, which is an excellent opportunity for me to enter the mainland, and for the producer, his own popularity in Baodao is definitely the guarantee of ratings, and he did not send an invitation before because they thought that the popular acting skills of pure idol dramas were not enough to support the male lead, and Su Youpeng became popular again because of "Huanzhu Gege", which also met the popularity they needed.
"Chen boy, what are you in a daze?"
Yang Yichen came back to his senses and smiled at Zhou Xingchi, he is still just a young man less than twenty years old, instead of scheming, it is better to get straight to the point, competing for the male number one in the TV series, maybe there is competition to be motivated, and the role also subverts the image that he presents to the audience, jumping from F4 to car mechanic is subversive, and then beating the young young man in ancient times, just pretending is subversive.
"Director Lai, I heard that I am going to reshoot "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" recently, is there a role suitable for me?"
Zhou Xingchi and Lai Shuiqing were stunned for a moment, and then they were both relieved, actors, there will always be several styles, and it is directly one style, and in such a private occasion, drinking wine, if you fail to satisfy both parties, it will not be too embarrassing, everyone will take it as a joke.
"Director Zhou's films are all on, you can still watch my TV series, which role are you interested in, come directly." Lai Shuiqing was half-joking when the other party was half-joking, and he was also half-joking.
Yang Yichen took a sip of wine: "What about Zhang Wuji?" ”
Lai Shuiqing really didn't know how to answer this time, Zhou Xingchi was not a good talker, and this kind of thing was not easy to interject, I originally wanted to say that Chen Boy's play was no problem and he had a lot of kung fu, but he felt that it was not appropriate, whether the play was good or not, and the movie review would come out tomorrow, and all Xiangjiang would know.
Yang Yichen immediately spoke to avoid embarrassment: "Joke, just kidding, I like to read martial arts novels since I was a child, Mr. Zha is my idol, and it is also my childhood dream to be able to get in touch with his writings, and I have to say a lot for a while......
To be honest, he himself does not have a negative attitude towards Su Youpeng's ancient costumes, but for the role of Zhang Wuji, how to say it, suitable is appropriate, but a little less at a glance he identified this role as his kind of inspiration, after returning to the residence, he was interested in Yang Yichen, tall and tall, with tough and handsome facial features, and he is also a popular idol, and the two heroines are not very popular, for the positioning in the industry, It's not as popular as Yang Yichen now, but this film has to be released in the mainland, Yang Yichen has no mainland foundation, Su Youpeng's "Huanzhu Gege" can be regarded as an Asian idol, it can't be changed, it has to be him.
Try it more, it's okay, this thought dawned, Lai Shuiqing got the first newspaper, which was overwhelmingly "Shaolin Football", with rave reviews, most of which were similar evaluations of Zhou Xingchi's most classic movie, including many evaluations of Yang Yichen, a popular idol.
funny, subversive, unimaginable, handsome, good figure, good acting skills, vivid, dare to challenge, the director and the leading actors in the play are highly praised......
Well?
Lai Shuiqing went downstairs and bought all today's newspapers back, a few days ago, all newspapers were suspicious and criticized Yang Yichen, thinking that he would be the passer-by of the whole film, and even completely playing soy sauce, under the strong shield of Xingzi and Uncle Da, there is no sense of zài or anything like that, today's critical newspapers are silent, and they report "Shaolin Football" normally, and some newspapers that are confident or neutral to Yang Yichen are not stingy with praise, and give a very high evaluation to Yang Yichen's performance of subverting his idol image.
Hey, there's one here, that poisonous tongue Ye Chaoda, see what he says.
"Yang Yichen's appearance is good, but it has to be said that Zhou Xingchi mastered the role, and designed such a supporting role with a sense of joy, just like several small supporting roles in the play, the credit lies with the screenwriter and director, but it just happened that he would join in as a popular idol Yang Yichen and everyone wrote a big book about him, and there will be joy when he comes to a newcomer, the real Yang Yichen is still the cool and handsome behind, that's what he wants, it can be said that the brilliance of this role is the credit of the director and screenwriter, It has little to do with the actors, and the jokes we often notice are the lines of wearing props, and these are not the ...... given to it by the actors."
sprinkled and wrote a lot, ordinary viewers may follow his train of thought when they see it, who is Lai Shuiqing, who has been mixed in the circle for so many years, this Ye Chaoda is talking repeatedly, without spoilers, but he uses his own words to try to guide the audience, once you read this article, because he keeps repeatedly emphasizing a fact in different ways, so that when you go to watch the film again, you will subconsciously follow this line of thought.
"I don't know where this Yang Yichen offended this Ye Chaoda, let him work so hard, he has no words, and he is still there to force words."
Put down the newspaper, Lai Shuiqing, who had not slept all night, told himself, no matter what the outside world said, and whether he should break the idea of Yang Yichen coming up to play Zhang Wuji, it seems that he should go to see this masterpiece of Zhou Xingchi first, even if it is not to see him, he is going to go to the theater today to have a show, the difference is that the leisure activities after dinner have become the excitement of staying up all night.
"This ......"
After drinking a large cup of espresso, Lai Shuiqing, who came to the cinema, was surprised, it was only half past eight, and it was not a weekend, how to buy a ticket There would be a queue at the scene, normally at this time to watch a movie, you will enjoy the treatment of a few people enjoying the screening hall of Nuoda.
"One of "Shaolin Football", I want a seat between X and X in the XX row."
Lai Shuiqing knew very well which angle was the most comfortable in the theater, but he was told that it was all sold out, so he bought a middle position and entered the theater, and he really gasped.
In order to make himself in a better state, Lai Shuiqing went to buy a glass of ice Coke, smoked a cigarette in the smoking area, adjusted his best condition and sat down again, the film just started, but he was already sure in twenty minutes that this film will have a very terrifying box office, the theme is good and the star effect is well-filmed, but what about Yang Yichen? It's been forty minutes, is it really just a fleeting supporting role?
