Magic Modified Huayu

The only thing I need to worry about is the actress I'm acting opposite.

Chen Baoguo took the initiative to ask, "Director Wei, has the female role for this play been decided?"

Wei Jun said frankly: "Not yet, the three teachers have been finalized first, but it is also very simple to decide on the female role.

It’s hard to find actors for my plays.”

"That's for sure, but can I make a suggestion?" Chen Baoguo said.

Wei Jun smiled and said, "Teacher Chen, please go ahead and say whatever you want. You don't have to be so polite."

Chen Baoguo said: "Try to choose actresses with better acting skills, otherwise it will really affect the quality of the film even if the script is good.

To be honest, I just finished filming "All Quiet in Peking", which was written by Liu Heping and directed by Kong Zhi and Li Yu.

Good screenwriter, good director, everything is good.

But the two leading actresses they chose... their acting skills are more immature than the other. I think the audience will definitely criticize it when it airs."

Chen Baoguo's tone was very helpless.

When Wei Jun heard Chen Baoguo say this, he also thought of the play "All Quiet in Peking".

It is indeed a good drama.

The quality is impeccable.

However, the role played by the male lead Liu Ye was too rushed.

The two leading actresses' performances were indeed worse than each other.

Neither the male nor the female protagonist is likable, but the supporting roles are better than each other.

A low-profile version of "In the Name of People".

So it was only natural that "All Quiet in Peking" flopped.

It is a pity.

Wei Jun would naturally not make the same mistake as "All Quiet in Peking".

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, I will carefully select the female lead.

It is currently tentatively planned that there will be two female protagonists. My idea is that one will be responsible for traffic and popularity, and the other will be responsible for professional acting skills.

I plan to let Yuan Quan play the role that requires professional acting skills."

As soon as Wei Jun finished speaking, Chen Baoguo's eyes lit up.

Sun Honglei and Wang Zhifei were also excited.

"Yuan Quan, what a great actor."

Wang Zhifei exclaimed in admiration.

Sun Honglei nodded: "Of course, he was selected into the 'Chinese Drama Centennial Hall of Fame' in 2007, which couldn't be better."

There is a chain of contempt in the entertainment industry.

TV actors look down on variety show actors.

Movie actors look down on TV actors.

And drama actors look down on movie actors.

Drama actors stand at the top of the contempt chain.

Even many audiences implicitly assume that the drama actor is the one with the best acting skills.

Because every performance of the drama is broadcast live, with no NGs and directly facing the audience, the requirements for the actors are the highest.

In 2007, Yuan Quan was inducted into the Chinese Drama Centennial Hall of Fame.

Yuan Quan was just 40 years old that year.

Her acting talent is not much inferior to that of her husband Xia Yu.

Wei Jun wanted to find Yuan Quan to act, not only because he valued her acting skills, but also because of her unique temperament.

It’s hard to get out of the role when you see Yuan Quan.

Moreover, the strong woman she plays will not make the audience feel awkward.

The invitation to Yuan Quan also went smoothly.

Although Yuan Quan's acting skills are recognized as good, she is not given many roles.

The iron triangle of Ning Hao, Xu Zheng and Huang Bo likes to look for her. Yuan Quan was the heroine in the movie "My Lucky Star" released in 2014.

But she was a pretentious literary girl.

Not likable at all.

The role that Wei Jun gave to Yuan Quan was obviously more challenging, both cool and sassy.

Yuan Quan agreed without much hesitation.

As for the other female lead candidate.

Wei Jun flipped through his address book and called Zhao Liying.

Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi are going to shoot the second part of the From the Future series.

Da Mimi has no schedule.

Da Tiantian doesn't want to film a TV series.

Wei Jun wanted to find a popular young actress to play the leading female role. Why would he use a novice when he could use the top-notch talent?

Wouldn’t it be better to do it in one step?

So there are not many female celebrities to choose from.

He is not familiar with Tang Yan.

But he and Zhao Liying are friends.

Zhao Liying also recorded "Dreaming of the Entertainment Circle" before. "Director Wei?"

Zhao Liying was a little surprised when she suddenly received a call from Wei Jun.

Wei Jun's next words magnified the surprise in her heart.

"Liying, are you free? Let's go out for a cup of coffee?" "Yes, of course."

Zhao Liying answered without hesitation.

After hanging up the phone, the agent looked at Zhao Liying hesitantly.

"Liying, your acting schedule for this year is almost full."

the agent reminded.

Zhao Liying waved her hand and said, "Turn down all the offers within six months."

"What if Director Wei's story fails?"

"Impossible, I will take him down."

It is no secret in the circle that Wei Jun is looking for actors for his new play.

If Wei Jun doesn't look for her, then she will let it go.

But now Wei Jun has found her.

There is no reason for Zhao Liying to give up this big pie.

Compared with Wei Jun's plays, other plays are nothing but clouds.

"Liying, I heard that Director Wei is good in every way, but I'm ill. You can wear a low-cut dress to the appointment."

The agent suggested.

Zhao Liying looked down at her dumplings and silently wondered if she should change her agent.

She wanted to wear a low-cut dress.

But what about the breasts?

She is also very desperate.

"I will conquer Wei Jun with my acting skills."

Zhao Liying could only cheer herself up.

"What if my acting skills can't conquer you?"

The agent has little confidence in Zhao Liying's acting skills.

Zhao Liying's urge to change her agent became stronger.

"If my acting skills can't win you over, then I'll use the beauty trap."

Zhao Liying went all out.

The agent hesitated for a second before finally saying, "Ying, you should focus on honing your acting skills."

Zhao Liying: “…”

This agent must be changed.

for sure.

Chapter 56: Director Wei, stop talking, I'm going to fight you

Wei Jun and Zhao Liying have an appointment for tomorrow.

We must give Zhao Liying some time to prepare.

Although Wei Jun did ask Zhao Liying out for coffee, not a rehearsal.

For some well-known actors, the audition process can actually be omitted.

The fact that someone has become a well-known star or has had their acting skills professionally certified represents a certain threshold.

It would be unfair to force them to be treated the same as newcomers.

Besides, the director generally has an idea of ​​what kind of actor to look for to play a role.

But even if it's not an audition, the director asking the actor to have a chat before deciding on the role is definitely a test.

After all, this is Wei Jun’s new play.

No actor in the entertainment industry dares to neglect it.

Of course Zhao Liying won’t do that either.

Wei Jun was also considerate and gave her time to prepare.

However, Wei Jun soon discovered that his image tomorrow might be in jeopardy.

Because he received a call from an old acquaintance.

"Scumbag, have you forgotten me?"

Yaya's accusatory questioning made Wei Jun subconsciously cover his head.

He had indeed forgotten about Yaya...but Director Wei was a battle-tested man, so he certainly wouldn't let the cat out of the bag so easily.

So Wei Jun said confidently: "What are you talking about? I can forget about anyone else but you. In fact, I was just about to contact you."

"Really?"

"Really? I was just about to call you when you called me. That's what we call telepathic communication."

Mr. Wei is lying with his eyes open.

However, Mr. Lu Xun said that if you are a man, you must learn to tell lies with your eyes open.

Wei Jun has always regarded Mr. Lu Xun as his idol and has put his idol's teachings into practice through practical actions.

It turns out that women really like to hear men lie.

Even if she knows you are lying to her.

unimportant.
