What the hell is Uncle Dong happy about letting you play the role of village committee member?

Chapter 17 Is it all Zhao Gao? Hit the subject?
  The cast and director's control room of "A Wonderful Thought",

After receiving instructions from Jiang Chen,
  The working group immediately made the competition more difficult.

Host Bai Bingbing came to the monitoring room at this moment,

"Director Qian, I have already notified the contestants that they are starting to prepare new stories."

The middle-aged man called Director Qian stood up from the chair in front of the monitor.

He took off the peaked cap on his head and wiped his Mediterranean head.
  "That's fine. What do the players say?"

Bai Bingbing smiled bitterly,
  "What else can I say? Every one of them has such a bitter look on his face that he almost quit the competition on the spot."

Director Qian smiled, as expected,

"What's going on here? Since I'm participating in "A Wonderful Dream", I have to be mentally prepared for this!"

"Our acting team is pretty good, but in the fiction team next door, in just the first game, the contestants with strict rules had to jump and scold them. Isn't it smooth sailing and the ratings are going up?"

Bai Bingbing was stunned for a moment,
  "Ah? Director Qian, do you mean that the difficulty will be raised in the future? Now the players have no motivation to compete. If this continues, won't the competition become more and more depressing?"

Director Qian shook his head,
  Turning around, he spoke earnestly,
  "piece of cake."

"Isn't it just that they have no fighting spirit? That's because their self-esteem has not been crushed to the bottom, and their competitive spirit has not been stimulated."

"I have already discussed with several assistant directors that in the third game, two people will act opposite each other and compete together."

"And at the same time, a popularity ranking is established online, and fans can rank it in real time!"

"I want to look at these popular celebrities. Is it more important to have idol baggage, or is it more important to see fans lose followers because of poor performance?"

"A group of two?" Bai Bingbing was stunned.
  "What about Ning Feng? Whoever works with him will not be tortured."

Director Qian clapped his hands and said, "What we want is this effect. Let them see what it means to be an actor! Recognize the gap between yourself."

“This is the original purpose of the show!”

Speaking of this, Director Qian seemed to have thought of something.
  Stopped Bai Bingbing who was about to leave,

"Oh, by the way, I almost forgot."

"Please inform the player chat group again that from now on, Ning Feng will be in the last position in every game and act as the main axis of the show! He will not participate in the draw of the order of the games."

"This is what he deserves."

----

After the intermission,
  The second round of the second game of "A Wonderful Thought",
  Finally arrived as expected!

"Hello, viewers, I am the host Bingbing. Welcome to watch the second round of the second round of the cast of "Yi Xiang Tian Kai"!"

With the host Bai Bingbing taking the stage,
  The audience on the Internet cheered,
  "Finally! I haven't even eaten lunch, I'm just waiting to start!"

"I heard that Ning Feng was pushed to the end of the queue and the big axis appeared. This treatment is awesome."

"In terms of fame and worth, Qian Xi, Yang Yang, and Chen Arthur are much higher than the newcomer Ning Feng, but now their treatment is completely the opposite."

"If it were me, there would be no room for this old face!"

"This time the background is changed to ancient history, so the role of the eunuch is easy to choose. There are so many famous eunuchs in history, and any role can be played."

……

Amidst the cheers of all the audience,

The game officially begins!
  The first Yang Yang chose the role of Wei Zhongxian.
  The story is as scripted, the acting is normal, and there is nothing outstanding.

It's just that a popular star plays a eunuch. This kind of contrast,
  It made some passerby fans change their senses and find it very novel.

And Arthur Chen, who appeared second,

The chosen story background is the Qin Dynasty.

The role played is,

Zhao Gao.

"Zhao Gao, this character is a perfect bad guy."

"Qin II died, and Zhao Gao was nailed to the pillar of sinners."

"I wonder what Arthur can do."

"His acting skills are constantly improving and are much better than before."

"This show really tortures the actors. The novel team next door locks people in separate compartments and they are not allowed to come out until they finish writing. The actor team is crazy about challenging the contestants' bottom line."

Amid the heated discussion, Arthur Chen quietly took the stage,
  Dressed in eunuch attire,
  Deliberately hunched over, pinched his throat, and even wiped white on his face.
  A lot of effort has been put into the appearance.

The story he prepared can be regarded as scripted.

It is a complete retelling of that story in history of "referring to a deer as a horse".

Back on stage.

"This is a thousand-mile horse, and I dedicated it to His Majesty."

Zhao Gao, played by Arthur Chen, waved his hand, and two attendants on the side led a deer.

Qin II was sitting on the dragon chair on the high platform, looking left and right.

"This is obviously a deer. Did the Prime Minister make a mistake? Why did it become a horse?"

Chen Arthur turned around and faced the ministers,
  "What do you think, is this a deer or a horse?"

In an instant, in order to please Zhao Gao, most of the officials opened their eyes and told lies.
  "It's a horse, it's a horse."

……

performances,

The AI ​​scored 58 for the story and 78 for the performance.

Several judges made some comments,

Arthur Chen finally scored,
  Story 60, performance 79, total score 139.

After him, other contestants also took the stage,
  But the stories are all copied from history and there is nothing new at all.

Among them, the slightly interesting one is the fake eunuch Lao Ai played by Liu Yuning, who scored a total score of 150.

Finally, it's Ning Feng's turn!

Finally the big axis appears!
  "Finally it's this boy's turn."

In the judges' seat, Chen Daoming rubbed his eyes.

Leaning on the chair behind him, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

After seeing the works presented by so many contestants, I feel a little tired.

The only hope is the big axis Ning Feng.

"Overall, this round of competition and the stories prepared by each player are too boring."

"Copying history, this kind of plot has been repeated countless times in movies, TV dramas and movies, and it is too perfunctory to perform it on the stage."

Zhang Yimou shook his head,
  Domestic film and television productions are highly homogeneous, and actors and actresses have become mainstream.
  As a result, a large number of viewers were lost to watch foreign films.

The founding of "Yixiangtiankai" is to change this situation.

But he didn't see any determination in these players to change.

"What Director Zhang said makes sense, but after all, it was because time was tight and lack of preparation." Gong Li smoothed things over in time.

"Alas." Zhang Yimou sighed lightly, raised his head and looked at the stage.

"Let's see what Ning Feng can do. Don't let us down."

……

With the expectations of several judges,
  Ning Feng slowly appeared on the stage, wearing black and loose ancient clothes,
  There are light dark lines on the collar of the collar, which is very simple.

The face was also covered with makeup, making the complexion look slightly sallow.

The host Bai Bingbing asked just right at this moment,
  "As the last contestant to appear, can I ask on behalf of the audience, Ning Feng, what is the name of the character you are going to perform this round?"

Ning Feng smiled, and Yun Danfeng uttered two words:
  "Zhao Gao."

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the live broadcast room.
  "Zhao Gao?!"

"I'll go, is Ning Feng going to play Zhao Gao?"

"Isn't this a conflict of interest? Arthur is playing Zhao Gao, and Ning Feng is also playing Zhao Gao?"

"It's over. It's over now. It's also ancient history. The stories are not much different. Arthur's story barely passed 60, and Ning Feng is not much better."

"Well, as expected, people's creativity is limited, and Ning Feng is now exhausted."

　I sent the wrong draft again. It has been corrected. If it does not appear, just refresh it every hour. Sorry, I will update it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
