Chapter 154 Next year’s film festival, I have to watch you win the Best Actor Award
. "Mr. Wen, with all due respect, choosing a role is not about buying cabbage at the vegetable market."
Liu Chengxi said to Wen after a moment of silence.
Wen Zhiyan spread his hands and looked at Jiang Lan again: "But haven't these two roles been completely decided yet?"
As soon as Jiang Lan heard what Wen Zhiyan said, he knew that Wen Zhiyan understood him again. .
He is indeed more interested in Ape, a villain who is both good and evil, but first of all, Jiang Lan knows that this is not a joke, and if Liu Chengxi disagrees, he will not fight to the death with Liu Chengxi.
The reason why he told Ji Wanxing about this idea was because Ji Wanxing said first that someone might bring money into the group to steal his role.
Secondly, if the person he plays with is Wen Zhiyan, who he plays doesn't seem to be that important to him.
Because from an objective point of view, Wen Zhiyan himself is indeed more suitable for the role of Ape than Jiang Lan himself.
So Jiang Lan raised his hand, lightly scolded Wen Zhiyan, and whispered: "Don't be picky, listen to Director Xi's opinion."
Wen Zhiyan obediently remained silent and turned his attention to Liu Chengxi again. .
Liu Chengxi said bluntly: "I invited Jiang Lan here not on a whim. After we selected the script, we screened it day and night for half a month, and then after considering various reasons, we extended the invitation to Teacher Jiang."
He looked at Jiang Lan: "We all agree that you will be able to interpret the role of Li Shuang well. I believe you."
Jiang Lan pursed her lips and stopped struggling: "I will do my best not to let you down."
Before that, Liu Chengxi, I have seen some of Jiang Lan's works and I have a good idea of Jiang Lan's acting skills and abilities. I didn't say anything more and just asked him to be prepared. He would try a few shots tomorrow to find his condition and then make adjustments.
Of the entire cast, the one he felt most unsure about was Wen Zhiyan.
He originally selected several candidates from Ngabo, but he was not very satisfied with them. He always felt that something was missing.
Because Apei seems to be a plain, flamboyant and kind person, but in fact he is a ruthless and courageous egoist.
When he first helped Li Shuang, he just treated Li Shuang as an object of fun and entertainment.
Later, Li Shuang continued to grow and began to have new ideas and new goals, while Apei still seemed calm and could still have a good time with this so-called "good brother".
But in fact, under calm conditions, every look and action in Apei should be contrasting and have deep meaning.
According to Liu Chengxi's idea, if there is really no satisfactory candidate for this role in the end, he can only abandon the screenwriter's previous requirements for the character's appearance and find those veteran actors who are famous for their acting skills alone.
As a result, Wen Zhiyan came out halfway.
Liu Chengxi wanted to refuse, but couldn't. He was so uncomfortable that he couldn't eat or sleep for a week.
He called several times and wanted Wen Zhiyan to try out first, but Wen Zhiyan kept saying that he couldn't spare the time and told Liu Chengxi not to worry, as he would join the cast on time.
Today was the first time Liu Chengxi saw Wen Zhiyan in person.
He stared at Wen Zhiyan for another long time, took a deep breath, and persuaded himself three hundred times that it didn't matter, his acting skills weren't enough, and his looks would make up for it.
Then he turned to Wen Zhiyan and said,
"Mr. Wen, have you studied the script?"
Wen Zhiyan hummed lazily.
Liu Chengxi said again: "Then let me tell you about the character Ape..."
"Wait a minute." Wen Zhiyan interrupted Liu Chengxi: "Why did you just let Mr. Jiang talk about it? Will your opinions change when you come to me?"
Liu Chengxi gritted his teeth and said, "Then you go ahead."
He was already prepared for Wen Zhiyan not to be able to say anything.
Sure enough, the first thing Wen Zhiyan said was: "I don't think Apei is a villain. He just loves Li Shuang without knowing it."
Liu Chengxi's temples began to beat suddenly, and he interrupted Wen Zhiyan. He said: "Wait a minute, Mr. Wen, Li Shuang and Apei are all alphas."
Wen insisted: "So what?"
He raised his hand and poured Liu Chengxi a cup of tea: "The only one who knows capital best is Capital itself."
"Apei can stand in the position of the most powerful person in the league at a young age and can become the mastermind behind everything. No matter from any aspect, he should not grow up like Li Shuang. "Only a brave and righteous person can deal with him."
"He kills people without batting an eyelid and plays with people all over the world. Why should he show such connivance to Li Shuang?"
"After discovering Li Shuang ?" When he wanted to overthrow capital, he had countless opportunities to kill Li Shuang, but he didn't, why?"
Liu Chengxi couldn't help but think carefully after listening to Wen Zhiyan's words.
But he still said: "That's talent appreciation, the affection between brothers!"
Wen Zhiyan shook his head: "He is a profit-seeking businessman. Such people can only have brothers when their interests are common."
The two of them . After arguing back and forth for a long time, Liu Chengxi gradually began to doubt his previous knowledge.
He even said somewhat compromisingly: "But this is not recognized by the public."
Wen insisted: "Of course, so there is no need to be too straightforward, as long as you behave appropriately, people with a discerning eye will understand."
Continued Next, Wen Zhiyan made a realistic and more in-depth analysis of the character of Apei. A large part of it perfectly collided with Liu Chengxi's ideas, and a small part of it was extremely unique and tricky, which even surprised Liu Chengxi.
That night, Liu Chengxi called the writing team and assistant director for a meeting overnight.
Wen Zhiyan followed Jiang Lan back to Jiang Lan's room.
Jiang Lan closed the door, kissed Wen Zhiyan first, and then said, "Why do I think you are deliberately over-interpreting and brainwashing Liu Chengxi?"
Wen Zhiyan shook his head: "That's just my true thoughts."
He took Jiang Lan into his arms and said, "Of course, I also have selfish motives."
Jiang Lan was funny: "Boil a frog in warm water?"
Wen Zhiyan hummed. Because of gender diversity, in fact, there are almost no such people in the entertainment industry today. There have been cases of selling rotten food.
Most people don't think there's anything offensive about alpha and alpha being together.
The people who criticized CP in variety shows before simply thought that Jiang Lan and Wen Zhiyan were easy to compete with.
Like Liu Chengxi, they will not over-understand what alpha and alpha do.
But Wen Zhiyan wants to take this opportunity to break through this barrier, strike while the iron is hot, and grow the small group of CP fans he harvested not long ago.
But Wen Zhiyan also had a question for Jiang Lan: "You didn't say before that you would rather play the role of Ape."
Jiang Lan snorted: "It was just an idea. I like this character very much, but I also know There is little possibility of changing roles temporarily, so I didn't say anything."
Wen Zhiyan said, "I will try my best to cooperate with you, Mr. Jiang, and I will see you win the best award at the film festival next year."
