The Crown Prince of Huayu!

Chapter 243 He’s a nice person

The reason why Han Jiadong spoke was simple, because he recognized that this was the "Dragon Mother" from the original time and space.

Except for the wrong hair color, everything else is the same.

Characteristics of typical British beauties: delicate facial features, slim figure, creamy skin...

In fact, he doesn't have to use the heroine from the original drama. If he comes across one that he thinks is particularly suitable, he doesn't mind switching to someone else.

It's a pity that after auditioning so many people, no one was satisfied.

From having her hopes dashed to being rekindled, Emilia was so excited that she felt at a loss what to do.

I wanted to start performing, but found that I couldn't calm down.

And the more anxious he was to calm down, the more confused his mind became.

"What? Is there a problem?"

Hearing Han Jiadong's inquiry, she didn't care so much anymore and asked for help from the man who had just helped her: "I'm too nervous and excited now. Is there any way you can help me calm down?"

Hearing her words, everyone in the room except Han Jiadong looked at her in disbelief.

They have been responsible for so many auditions, but this is the first time they have heard an artist dare to make such a request.

But thinking of Han Jiadong's attitude just now, they all held back and said nothing.

Han Jiadong thought for a moment and said, "Maybe you can try a dance."

Emilia was probably acting like a dead horse, because after bowing gracefully, she really started to jump up.

It's just that her dancing... is really a bit unflattering.

It was as stiff as if the limbs were uncoordinated.

It embarrassed everyone in the room, including herself.

After the dance, I felt the urge to hide my face and run away, shameless to see anyone.

Fortunately, embarrassment replaced nervousness, and she was no longer unable to speak her lines.

After a brief preparation, she started her performance.

The performance was not amazing, but there was nothing wrong with it. Even though one part of her audition was from the first season and the other part was from the fourth season, which was very different, she didn't make any mistakes.

The most eye-catching thing is not her performance, but her two long eyebrows.

It can actually be squeezed into three wavy sections!

It almost made everyone else in the room laugh.

After she finished her performance, no one else dared to speak again this time, waiting for Han Jiadong to speak.

Emilia also stood there uneasily, as if waiting for her fate to be pronounced.

Han Jiadong was silent for a few seconds and asked: "There will be a nude scene in the play, are you okay with it?"

The main reason for the huge success of the original show is definitely not the nudity scenes, but without those nudity scenes, the original show would never have become a global success so quickly.

After all, there may be cultural differences, but "sex" is common to the whole world.

In the original play, the scene in which Dragon Mother rises from the water and water drops hang on her chest has stirred the hearts of many people.

Emilia's heart was beating violently uncontrollably. After taking a deep breath, she said firmly: "I can accept it!"

Han Jiadong nodded: "Okay, you go back and wait for the notification."

A trace of astonishment appeared on Emilia's face.

Is this over?

Even if you don’t give yourself an answer, you should always comment on your performance, right?

When she heard Han Jiadong ask her if she could accept a nude scene, she thought her dream was coming true.

Now, she couldn't help but feel anxious again.

After saluting, she took two steps numbly. She suddenly remembered something and turned to Han Jiadong: "Director, um, my friend and I are both your fans. Can you sign your autograph for me?"

……

Outside the audition room.

"Why don't you come out?"

"Has it been almost ten minutes since she went in?"

"How could a guy with even the wrong hair color be able to stay in there for so long?"

"She won't be chosen, right?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

……

The other candidates couldn't help but whisper.

When the door to the room finally opened despite their long calls, they immediately cast their gaze over.

When they saw Emilia coming out of the room with a happy face, their hearts suddenly skipped a beat.

A thought came to mind at the same time: No way?
Outside the hotel downstairs.

Ellie, who had already finished the audition, saw her friend coming out and immediately stepped forward to ask: "How was it? Have you met Director Han Jiadong?"

As for the audition results, she automatically chose to ignore them so as not to rub salt into her friend's wounds.

Emilia took out the signature she got: "Dangdang, look what this is?"

Ellie's eyes widened: "Signature?! You actually got Director Han Jiadong's signature?"

In her eyes of disbelief and envy, Emilia thrust the signature into her hand: "Take it."

"Um???"

Ellie looked at her confused.

"Don't you want it? I'll give it to you."

"Give it to me? What will you do yourself? This is Director Han Jiadong's signature!"

Amelia took out another one and waved it in her hand: "I still have it."

Ellie's eyes widened: "What's going on?"

"Didn't you say you wanted his autograph? After I finished the audition, I asked him for it."

"Then he gave it to you."

"Yes."

Emilia nodded and said in retrospect: "I think Director Han is quite easy to talk to."

Director Han Jiadong is easy to talk to?

Ellie thought about the few comments about Director Han Jiadong he had found in the past few days. He was low-key, indifferent, and a tyrant on the set...

None of them have anything to do with "easy to talk to".

Then he thought about his friend's state, which didn't look like he had failed the audition at all, and his heart beat violently.

"Emilia, how did your audition go?"

She asked cautiously, not because she was afraid of irritating her friend, but because she was afraid of being irritated herself.

Fortunately, after her friend was asked this question, her expression finally dropped and she shook her head, which made her feel relieved.

"It's okay. If you can get Director Han Jiadong's signature, it's already a huge gain."

Ellie comforted her friend by patting her back.

But Amelia shook her head again: "No, I feel that I still have hope."

"Um???"

Ellie immediately asked: "What's going on?"

Emilia told her about her audition process.

"...I just introduced myself, and the guy who was showing off to me before said that I was not good at speaking, and that I must not be able to speak my lines well, so he wanted to drive me away."

"This is normal... Uh, you continue."

"Just when I thought I was finished, at the critical moment, Director Han finally spoke."

"What did he say?" "He said, please start your performance!"

"Wow!"

Ellie looked at her friend with eyes full of envy: "You must have been moved to death at that time, right? If Director Han helped me like this, I would be willing to die for him!"

"It's not as exaggerated as you said?"

"What happened next? Then you started performing and conquered Director Han with your acting skills?"

"No... I was so nervous and excited that I couldn't even say the lines." Emilia felt guilty.

Ellie was furious: "Oh! Why are you so useless? What a great opportunity!"

"I can't help it! Think about the situation at that time. When I was at my most desperate, a director as big as Director Han suddenly spoke for me. If it were you, wouldn't you be nervous and excited?"

"Same, what happened after that? How did you overcome it?"

"I...I asked Director Han if there was any way to make me less nervous." Emilia felt guilty again.

"You...you are such a talent!"

Ellie couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard this: "Then what did Director Han say?"

"He asked me to dance."

"Dancing is indeed a good choice... have you danced?"

"Ah."

"Then Director Han was attracted by your graceful dancing?"

"No...ahem! That's not the point. The point is that I finally felt less nervous and successfully completed two performances."

"You should have done what you should have done right from the beginning, but you made it seem like you had accomplished something extraordinary."

Ellie couldn't help but complain, and asked again: "What next? Director Han must be impressed by your acting skills this time, right?"

Emilia shook her head again: "He didn't say anything about my performance, he just asked me if I was willing to accept a nude scene."

"Doesn't this mean that Director Han is going to give you the role?"

Ellie was excited, but then she was stunned: "You won't refuse, right?"

"how is this possible?"

Emilia immediately denied it.

"Too."

Ellie nodded. Although their country is considered the most conservative among all European and American countries, and her friend is also a conservative girl, this kind of good opportunity is in front of her, and no one with a little ambition can refuse it.

Anyway, if it were her, she wouldn't refuse.

"That is how the matter?"

"After I said I could accept it, Director Han asked me to go back and wait for notification."

"Didn't I give you any hints or something?"

"No."

Amelia's eyebrows were squeezed into three sections again.

Ellie was a little unsure at this time.

"Maybe the Korean director is going to make a decision after watching all the auditionees? Or maybe their country really won't decide right away? But anyway, since the Korean director asked you if you are willing to accept a nude scene, it means that he must be more interested in it. I’m optimistic about you. Even if you don’t get the leading role, you will definitely have greater hope if you audition for other supporting roles later.”

Emilia was silent. She had no way to verify with Han Jiadong, so she could only wait for the final result to be announced.

But that afternoon, she received good news.

Han Jiadong did not appear at the audition again!
Although she was not sure, Emilia couldn't help but fantasize: "Is it because she is sure that she is the heroine, so she doesn't waste time on other people?"

As she had guessed, Han Jiadong had really confirmed that she would play the heroine.

After deciding on the heroine, Han Jiadong focused on other roles.

Compared with the heroine, other roles have stricter restrictions, such as age, whether you have acting experience, and appearance, so there are far fewer people to audition.

First round auditions for many roles have already been completed.

Different from the role of the heroine, Han Jiadong does not intend to use the actors from the original play for most of the other roles.

The original show's production company didn't have a huge budget for the first season, so many of the actors had to make do.

As a result, the appearance of the entire drama is really not outstanding.

Especially the characters who appeared in the first season.

Many characters with the titles of beauties and handsome men are not good to say the least, and can even be said to be eye-catching.

There are those who were fine when they were little, but become crippled when they grow up.

There is almost no one that will amaze people at first sight. It is all supported by the character's personality charm, which makes people feel that the more they watch, the more interesting it becomes.

Han Jiadong doesn't have to worry about budget now, so he naturally chooses the best one possible.

After waiting anxiously for two days, Emilia finally received the exact result.

At that moment, even though she had expected it, she still felt like she was dreaming.

After getting excited, she shared the news with her friends, which aroused their envy.

The friend also shared the good news with the rest of the class.

After hearing the news without any preparation, the group of people in the class thought Ellie was joking.

Almost no one believed it.

Some people even said something like, "It's impossible to be chosen just because of Emilia's hair color."

As a result, relevant news was quickly reported by the media.

Looking at the classmates who appeared in the news report, a group of them who had just left campus and were almost all newbie actors, I felt mixed emotions.

Even with Ellie, who has the best relationship, it's hard to say that she doesn't have feelings like jealousy.

She auditioned for Sansa and was eliminated in the first round.

The one who was finally chosen was a little Irish girl across the sea from them - Saoirse Ronan.

He is only fifteen years old this year, which is two years older than when the character first appeared. Compared with her, he is indeed more suitable.

It was hard not to be disappointed when she thought that her best friend, who was two years older than her, got the role of a fourteen-year-old when she first appeared.

After Han Jiadong selected the main role and arranged follow-up matters, he returned to China.

At this time, although the two main theme movies "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" and "The Wind" are still being screened for a long time, their box office potential has basically been exhausted.

The final box office results of both films were very satisfactory.

"The Wind" has a box office of 3.7 million, temporarily ranking sixth in this year's box office rankings.

With this box office of more than 300 million, Liu Yifei's total box office has successfully exceeded the 1 billion mark!
She is the first mainland actress to achieve this achievement.

The good media has even given her the title of "Box Office Queen".

Compared with "The Wind", the performance of "The Founding of the Republic" is even more outstanding.

The final box office reached 5.8 million!
It surpassed "The Journey" and "If You Are the One" and ranked second only to "Transformers"!

In the total box office rankings of domestic films, it is also second only to "Those Years" with more than 800 million, ranking second in history!

This movie also played a big role in Han Sanpin's success.

Before the release of Lunar New Year blockbusters such as "The Tomb", "October Siege", and "Three Guns", the most popular movie in the film market is undoubtedly "The Four Famous Detectives" starring Hu Ge and Liu Sisi.

In the first week of release, the box office reached more than 80 million!

The box office in this first week alone has successfully paid off.

And because the release date has been advanced, Hollywood blockbusters such as "The Wolverine", "Fantastic Four" and "Iron Man" have not yet had much influence in China, so the ability settings of the protagonist group have not attracted widespread attention. The crowd laughed at it, and even many viewers thought it was very novel.

In addition, the changes in the suspense part have not become completely useless like the original film. Although the reputation of "Four Famous Catchers" is not high, it has not collapsed either.

The Douban score is 6.5, which is considered above the passing line.

Because of this, even in the second week, the box office did not drop off a cliff like the original time and space.

Liu Sisi, who plays the heroine in the film, also entered the public eye again after "Legend of Sword and Fairy III".
