Chapter 1061: The Final Candidate
With his acting skills suddenly improved by half a level, and he was only one-fifth of his progress away from being able to reach the same A+ level as Jin Chengwu, Menjie's understanding of many acting skills can also be said to have improved by leaps and bounds.
At present, the integration progress of 'innate temperament' and 'acquired temperament', which is the most important for Menjie, has made a leap forward!
Just now, Menjie was at best able to fuse the B-level innate temperament 'majesty' with the C-level acquired temperament 'indifferent'.
But even so, it also made director Li Case full of affirmation of Menjie, and everyone at the scene, including Liang Chaowei, felt that Menjie's level was very high, and he was definitely among the best among many top actors.
But at this moment, with the rapid improvement of his acting skills, Menjie took a step forward on the road of temperament fusion!
Previously, after perfectly integrating the B-level temperament with the C-level temperament, Menjie exchanged the B-level 'indifferent' temperament, trying to fuse the two B-level temperaments, and spent a lot of points for this!
Indifferent temperament is quite precious for an actor, and he is not familiar with majestic temperament, iron-blooded temperament, and murderous temperament, which is only suitable for playing roles in individual films, take Liang Chaowei as an example, with such a temperament, he has played many roles, it can be said that among all temperaments, indifferent temperament is definitely a relatively expensive one.
In terms of price, it also surpassed the most expensive Men Jie, worth 58,000 points, and reached a full 65,000 points!
Coupled with the lot of training exchanged from the Tianwang system some time ago, Menjie's spending these days has reached more than 72,000 points, and the original remaining 322,500 points are currently only 250,000 points.
It's definitely a lot of investment. And it's the kind that can't be taken back.
However, at this time, the acting skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and the fusion of temperament has also risen to a new level, and the perfect fusion of B-level majestic temperament and B-level indifferent temperament can be regarded as a small profit.
In an instant, Menjie's body exuded a temperament that was very similar to before, but even stronger.
Even in terms of indifferent temperament, it has reached a level comparable to Liang Chaowei, although it is not as strong as the increase of the 'God-given eyes', but with the combination of majestic temperament, it is definitely better!
"It's just a perfect blend of the two. I only need Menjie to improve his acting skills, and after reaching my level, my achievements will definitely be much higher than mine, and among all the top actors in China, I am definitely the top-notch! ”
Feel the unique temperament exuded by Menjie. Liang Chaowei couldn't help but say softly.
Just now I just sighed in my heart, but now. But he involuntarily said something that was inferior to himself.
Even the director Li Case on the side widened his eyes. I can't believe that an actor with such a strong and unique temperament is just a young man in his early twenties.
"The future of this young man is limitless!"
sighed in his heart, but Menjie's performance continued, and it didn't take long. I've already done all my performances.
"Very good, you are definitely the strongest actor under the age of thirty in the entire Huaxia industry!"
Seeing that Men Jie completed the performance, even if it was the director Li case. I also have to give Menjie a pretty high evaluation.
"Even among all the ordinary actors, with your special skills, no one can be better than you, and you are the strongest actor of the new generation in China!"
"Director Li has won the award, and I still have a big gap in acting!"
Hanging his head slightly, Menjie also accepted the praise of his invincible temperament.
In the whole of China, there may be people who can integrate the two temperaments with each other, but the two B-level temperaments are perfectly integrated, and only Menjie can have so many temperaments that can be transformed into each other.
Of course, in terms of acting, Menjie still has a big flaw, which cannot be changed in a short period of time.
And after Menjie's performance was completed, it was Wang Lihong's turn to audition.
Strictly speaking, Wang Lihong also has several works, but they are not very important roles, his fame is not big, and his acting skills are much worse, so he is still a newcomer.
From the perspective of a newcomer, Wang Lihong's performance is very good, but with the foil of the previous one, who is nearly ten years younger than Wang Lihong in terms of age, Wang Lihong's performance is much worse, at least it did not arouse the interest of director Li Case.
After a while, everyone's performances on the scene had ended, but director Li Xian's eyes flashed a look of entanglement and struggle.
In his heart, for the audition of the actor in the movie "Lust and Caution", Jin Chengwu and Wang Lihong have obviously been eliminated, and the only ones who really entangled him are obviously Menjie and Liang Chaowei.
One temperament is more suitable, the other has a good temperament, but the acting skills are much better than the latter, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, and for a while, it really makes the Li case a little difficult to start.
"Four, in my movie "Lust and Caution", there are some particularly ambiguous plots, and you even need to appear naked, I don't know if you have any objections in this regard?"
muttered about the requirements of the role of 'Mr. Yi', but in fact, director Li Case was finding time for himself to think.
"I'm so old, and I'm not an idol, of course there's no problem!"
Liang Chaowei was the first to say something, and then Wang Lihong and Jin Chengwu, although they felt that they had little hope, they also said honestly.
"If it was before, I might have some problems, but when I was filming the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors" some time ago, I was already naked, and now I have no problem doing it again!"
With a chuckle, Menjie also said honestly.
In the past, Menjie was still a little concerned about this problem, but after the first time, the second time was much simpler.
Then, director Li asked the four men and the four men some irrelevant questions, and after a long struggle, they finally gritted their teeth. But the decision was made.
"I've asked you a few questions, and combined with your previous performances, I already have the answers!"
While speaking, director Li Case couldn't help but glance at Men Jie apologetically, and finally set his eyes on Liang Chaowei.
If it was in the past, when the pressure on director Li was not very great, in order to pursue a 'more feeling' movie, he might choose Menjie, but for him at this time, it was not possible!
In 2001. After director Li won the "Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film" for the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", he became one of the most watched directors in Hollywood, and even directed the American hero series "Hulk Hulk", but the final results were not very good, and his status in Hollywood can be said to have plummeted.
But after that. After winning the title of "Oscar for Best Director" with the movie "Brokeback Mountain", the Li case is definitely turning over again. But with that comes the pressure.
If it's the same as before. If he encounters Waterloo again after the fire, it will definitely hit him hard, so the next "Lust and Caution", even if it can't make the Li case win the 'Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film' again, it must definitely have a lot of results.
Steadiness is what the Li case is most demanding at this time. is more in line with such a demand, only Liang Chaowei!
Buzz Buzz Buzz!
Just as director Li was about to announce the news, there was a sudden sound of mobile phone vibrating in the room, and his words were interrupted. But it made director Li Xian frown slightly. "I'm sorry, Director Li, I'm really sorry to have a phone call!"
Jin Chengwu on the side was startled, and hurriedly bowed to the director Li Case and said, seeing that Jin Chengwu's attitude was not bad, Li Case waved his hand and asked Jin Chengwu to answer the phone to the side.
However, the atmosphere in the room is a little weird, after all, at this juncture when the protagonist is about to be announced, there is a problem, which will indeed make people wonderful.
After a while, Jin Chengwu came back, bowed slightly to director Li Case, and said apologetically, "Director Li, I'm really embarrassed, I just received a call from director Wu Yusen, saying that the movie "Red Cliff" I am about to star in will start a half-year training in the near future, and if you want to continue to act, you must receive training, so ......"
The investment in the movie "Red Cliff" is definitely much larger than the movie "Lust and Caution", claiming to be a total investment of 85 million US dollars, which is much higher than the investment of 65 million US dollars in the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors" in which Menjie participated.
In order to be able to get the small role in the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors", there are many world-class actors who have participated in several months of training, and they may not be able to get the role in the end.
At this time, in order to be able to get a movie called "Red Cliff" that has an investment that even surpasses the movie "Spartan 300 Warriors", participate in a period of training, and be able to guarantee the role, I am afraid that no one will refuse.
If it weren't for the fact that the movie "Red Cliff" was definitely a trip to troubled waters, Menjie would probably have gone on a trip!
"I'm really sorry Director Li!"
The Kim Sung-mu actors on the side were full of guilt, but Li Zhan waved his hand slightly and said something innocuous like 'nothing to do'.
In fact, even without these things, the Li case did not have the idea of choosing Jin Chengwu at all, so naturally there was no problem.
Buzz Buzz Buzz!
However, at this time, Liang Chaowei's phone rang suddenly, and Liang Chaowei, who thought that the actor of the movie "Lust and Caution" was promising, did not want to answer the phone at this time, which made Li Case have a bad impression of himself, but after a little glance at the phone, he couldn't help but change his complexion.
The phone number Liang Chaowei also knows, and it is a very important person, obviously he can't hang up the phone.
"Director Li, I'm sorry, answer the phone!"
After saying a word to the Li case quite apologetically, Liang Chaowei also hurriedly went to answer the phone.
The three men on the side, Wang Lihong and director Li Case clearly found that after Liang Chaowei answered the phone, a strong joy appeared on his face at the beginning, but after a while, a look of great embarrassment and entanglement flashed on his face, and after a while, he hung up the phone and came to the front of director Li Case.
"It was the crew of "Red Cliff" who called me and told me that the role of the No. 1 actor in the movie was decided to be me!"
The number one actor?!
Listening to Liang Chaowei's call, Jin Chengwu on the side couldn't help but gasp.
As a relatively strong existence among ordinary actors, Jin Chengwu auditioned for only the No. 2 role in the entire "Red Cliff", and he is very clear about who the competitors for the No. 1 role are.
To put it mildly, even Liang Chaowei is definitely very lucky to be able to get the No. 1 actor in this movie, and it is definitely a very good opportunity!
In recent years, the film with the largest investment in Huaxia is "Red Cliff", and it is directed by the famous director Wu Yusen, I am afraid it is difficult to think about it!
But......
Thinking about it, Jin Chengwu's face couldn't help but flash a different color.
Could it be that not only is he about to be trained, but even Liang Chaowei is ......
"After that, the crew asked me to undergo training for the next period of time, so I ......"
Liang Chaowei is also going to launch the casting of the movie "Lust and Caution"?
Hearing this, Menjie, Wang Lihong and director Li Case were slightly stunned, but unlike the director Li Case, whose faces flashed with anger, the faces of Menjie and Wang Lihong were full of joy.
Jin Chengwu gave up the competition, Liang Chaowei gave up the competition, obviously, the biggest opportunity is the two Menjie!
Unless director Li is dissatisfied with both of them and recasts, otherwise......
"Director Li, I'm really sorry!"
"Nothing to apologize for!"
In the face of Liang Chaowei's apology, director Li Xian waved his hand casually, looking like he didn't care much, and turned his head directly to Menjie and said, "It just so happens that I plan to hand over the role of the No. 1 actor in the movie "Lust and Caution" to Menjie to play, and the second male lead in the movie must not be played by the two of you, so there is no need to apologize!" ”
On the one hand, he is angry, but on the other hand, it is also because in addition to Liang Chaowei, the most suitable candidate in Li's heart is Men Jie, and even if some other top actor-level actors compete with Men Jie, they may not be able to win.
Hearing the news suddenly, even the doorman on the side couldn't help but be a little surprised.
So quickly, the decision was made?
In fact, Menjie himself is not very surprised by this news, because there are more or less Menjie factors in it.
Although it was not Menjie himself who directly intervened in the operation, he also gave Wan Tongtong an order to 'do his best to get this role', and Menjie was not surprised by the current result.
Men Jie was surprised that the director Li decided too quickly! (To be continued......)
