Actor without ambition

Chapter 170 Male protagonist?
"Director Zhang, Director Yu." Zhang Yuxuan smiled embarrassedly.

"What's the matter, Yuxuan, is there something wrong?" Beard Zhang looked at Zhang Yuxuan like this, and asked in a concerned tone.

"Yes, if there is anything you want to help with, you can just ask." Director Yu Min also nodded.

"Well, a movie I made before will be released tomorrow, so I need to take two days off to attend the premiere of the movie, and to promote the movie by the way." Zhang Yuxuan said in a very embarrassed tone.

"Yo? A movie? Yuxuan, are you making a movie? What kind of movie? I'll bring someone to support you when I'm free." Zhang bearded eyes lit up, and he said with a smile.

If Zhang Yuxuan can make a popular movie, he will be more famous, and it will be even better for The Legend of Condor Heroes.That's why Big Beard Zhang wished that Zhang Yuxuan would participate in the movies of Zhang Yimou, Feng Gangpao or Chen Kaige.

"It's the movie "Green Red" directed by Wang Xiaoshuai. It's a literary film, and I have a small role in it. For a role like me with a small role like me, I shouldn't have participated in the film premiere. But Director Wang kept calling, saying that I have to participate, there is no other way, so I can only come to ask for leave." Zhang Yuxuan said with a look of embarrassment.

Hearing what Zhang Yuxuan said, Zhang Dabeard was somewhat disappointed.

After all, Wang Xiaoshuai's movie is a literary film after all, if it's the protagonist, it's fine. According to Zhang Yuxuan, he doesn't have many roles, so it's impossible for Zhang Yuxuan to bring much profit to Zhang Yuxuan when the movie is released. Naturally, for the Condor Heroes For this TV series, there is not much benefit.

But even though he was a bit disappointed, Zhang's big beard would not show it, let alone prevent Zhang Yuxuan from going to the movie premiere.

"Wang Xiaoshuai's movies, the movies he makes are all aimed at international awards. You can participate in his movies, which shows that your acting skills are recognized by him. Is two days enough? If not, then more Go for a few days, anyway, you won’t stay in the crew when you’re filming Xiao Yang Guo’s next scene.” Bearded Zhang said with concern.

"Enough is enough." Zhang Yuxuan said quickly.

After asking for leave, Zhang Yuxuan and Li Ling left the crew the next day.

In the crew, the filming of Xiao Yang crossing Zhang Xiaoshan began.

Zhang Xiaoshan, children, children’s characters are the most unpredictable, and they are also the most difficult to shoot, so the crew is also planning to gather Zhang Xiaoshan’s scenes, and it’s best to give all the scenes about Zhang Xiaoshan to him in one go. After filming, so that you don't have to worry about the mood of the children and affect the progress of filming.

When Zhang Xiaoshan changed into his costume and started filming Xiao Yang Guo's scene, Zhang Yuxuan had already left Xiangshan and joined the Qinghong crew.

"Zhang Yuxuan, long time no see." Gao Yuanyuan saw Zhang Yuxuan and waved to Zhang Yuxuan with a bright smile on his face.

"It's really been a long time." Zhang Yuxuan responded with a smile. Because of his personality, when Zhang Yuxuan responded, there was still a trace of unfamiliarity in his tone.

Gao Yuanyuan's eyes twitched when he heard the words: "Hey, Zhang Yuxuan, why do you feel that your tone of voice is so unfamiliar? No, it's just been a few months since I saw you, and your tone of voice to me has become Is it like this? I am also a beautiful woman after all, do you treat beautiful women like this?"

"Uh, a few months is quite long." Zhang Yuxuan was a little embarrassed.

The girls of other people speak in a graceful manner, but when Zhang Yuxuan greets people, he subconsciously mixes such a trace of unfamiliarity, which is really embarrassing.

"You know it's been a long time, so why didn't you take the initiative to contact me? It's a shame that I introduced "Green Red" to you on purpose. You're just crossing the river and tearing down the bridge." Gao Yuanyuan pouted, deliberately acting aggressive posture.

"Well, I've been filming in the crew before, it's quite tiring——"

Zhang Yuxuan's words made Gao Yuanyuan roll his eyes again: "You will make me feel that I am super unattractive. I am obviously a pretty girl. I have cooperated with you twice, and I took the initiative to contact you once. Yours, but you ignore me, I am so unattractive? Even ordinary friends can chat on the phone occasionally."

"...It's not that you are unattractive, it's me, it's my problem." Zhang Yuxuan could only say so.

Gao Yuanyuan's eyes widened with astonishment on his face, and then his gaze began to move down from Zhang Yuxuan's face.

Sensing Gao Yuanyuan's gaze, Zhang Yuxuan turned his lower body slightly: "I have a personality problem. I am relatively introverted, and I am not good at communicating. I made many friends when I was filming, but I only That period of time can be maintained, after the filming, the contact will be interrupted not long after the separation, my personality is like this." Zhang Yuxuan explained.

"I'm also talking about character." Gao Yuanyuan smiled and retracted her downward gaze.

"..." Zhang Yuxuan.

"Otherwise, what do you think?" Gao Yuanyuan stared at Zhang Yuxuan.

"Uh, I also thought that what you guessed was my character."

After rambling a few words indiscriminately, Zhang Yuxuan regained the feeling of getting along with Gao Yuanyuan. Before he knew it, his speech became more natural, and he didn't have that embarrassment anymore when getting along.

After chatting for a while, Wang Xiaoshuai came.

Director Wang Xiaoshuai didn't have much to say to him, just greeted him politely, that's about it.

The next step was to hold the premiere of the film, and some reporters also came.However, compared with the movie premiere of A World Without Thieves that Zhang Yuxuan participated in before, the premiere of this Qinghong movie is obviously much shabby.

There were no big-name celebrities at all, and although there were media reporters, the number of them was also very small, pitifully small.

Obviously, the audience for literary films is still too small, and even the media doesn't like this aspect of promotional themes very much.

Many reporters came with a bit of carelessness on their faces, but when the reporters saw Zhang Yuxuan at the premiere scene of the movie Qinghong, they were more or less refreshed.

However, although Zhang Yuxuan's reputation is quite large, the popularity is not small, especially Zhang Yuxuan participated in the opening ceremony of Condor Heroes not long ago, and the news enthusiasm has not passed.

But Zhang Yuxuan's popularity is more in TV dramas, and in movies, he is still a newcomer, so the size of his appeal has not yet been determined in terms of movies.

"Zhang Yuxuan, may I ask if you are the male lead in Qinghong's movie?" The reporter asked Zhang Yuxuan directly.

"this--"

"That's right, Zhang Yuxuan is the leading actor in the movie Qinghong." Wang Xiaoshuai replied before interrupting Zhang Yuxuan.

Seeing this, Zhang Yuxuan didn't know what to say.

"Zhang Yuxuan, this is your first time making a movie, right? It's the first time you can play the leading role in a movie directed by Wang Xiaoshuai. Do you feel pressure?"

"There is pressure, of course. It's the first time after all." Zhang Yuxuan replied with a polite smile.

"Then your acting skills meet the requirements? As far as I know, the film Qinghong was nominated for the main competition unit - the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. At the same time, it won the main competition unit - the Jury Prize. But You didn’t win the Best Actor Award, and you didn’t even get a nomination, so does this mean that your acting skills are not good, and it’s holding back the film?”

A reporter's question is more tricky.

Zhang Yuxuan maintained a polite and awkward smile. He played Xiao Gen, who was said to be the male lead. In fact, the two-hour movie played for less than 10 minutes. It would be amazing if he could be nominated or even won an award. It's weird.

"Zhang Yuxuan, how do you evaluate your acting skills?"

Zhang Yuxuan was embarrassed, he didn't know how to respond to this kind of question now.

"Zhang Yuxuan's acting skills are still very good. I recognize his acting skills very much. As for why he didn't win the award, it was because of my setting of the role, and it has nothing to do with Zhang Yuxuan's acting skills." Wang Xiaoshuai stood up again at this time Give Zhang Yuxuan a relief.

But Zhang Yuxuan was not grateful for Wang Xiaoshuai's actions.

Obviously it is a scene of less than 10 minutes, but to give Zhang Yuxuan the name of the protagonist, isn't this going to put Zhang Yuxuan on the fire?

Gao Yuanyuan on the side, when the reporter asked Zhang Yuxuan if he was the leading actor in this movie, he had a strange expression on his face until now.

After the questioning session was finally over, Zhang Yuxuan's forehead was sweating.

After a not very lively movie premiere ceremony, Qinghong's movie officially began to be shown on the big screen.

First there is a golden dragon mark, and then the movie Qinghong begins.

In the first scene of the movie, Xiao Gen, played by Zhang Yuxuan, is operating on the washing machine, and there is also a close-up of the face, with a bit of carelessness.

Immediately afterwards, it was the part where Xiao Gen, played by Zhang Yuxuan, went to buy shoes.

In the first few minutes, it was all Zhang Yuxuan's role.

When the reporter and some audience saw this, they really took Wang Xiaoshuai's words seriously, and really thought that Zhang Yuxuan was the leading actor of this play.

After all, the first few minutes of this movie were Zhang Yuxuan's one-man show alone. If he wasn't the protagonist, how could he be treated like this?

In these few minutes, Zhang Yuxuan's expression did not change much from the beginning to the end, which made some reporters quite excited. Why are they excited?
Of course it's because they can complain that Zhang Yuxuan's performance in the movie is not very good.

He is obviously the leading actor in the movie, shouldn't his performance be better?Look at Zhang Yuxuan, the expression on his face has been so flat for a few minutes.

But then, the reporters found out that the male protagonist they identified seemed to have a little role in the scene——no, it should be said that there are so few roles in the scene?
The heroine Qing Hong, Qing Hong's father, even Qing Hong's mother, Qing Hong's friend and even Qing Hong's friend's boyfriend, all of them seem to have more roles than Zhang Yuxuan playing Xiao Gen.

With so few roles, is this really the leading actor?
