Chapter 224: Are you being remembered?
Yao Zhuangxian, who had been silent all this time, now seemed quite excited.

Because he has deep emotional investment in the character of Zhao Linger.

Especially when positioning the characters in the game, Yao Zhuangxian almost had a falling out with Zhang Xiaoquan because of his love for Zhao Linger.

Because Zhang Xiaoquan has always emphasized the dual female protagonists and has always advocated strengthening the role of Lin Yueru in the plot.

If it weren't for the adapted script provided by Du Sheng, which optimized Lin Yueru's character, eliminated the bad plot of killing innocent people and doing whatever she wanted, and strengthened her relationship with the male protagonist, I'm afraid there would still be quarrels.

Although Yao Zhuangxian compromised, when he saw Liu Yifei transformed into Zhao Linger's fairy-like appearance, the urge to pity the heroine almost came over him again.

But for now he could only suppress his thoughts and praised Liu Yifei:
"I've seen your performance in Tian Long. Your fairy spirit and pure eyes are very special. This is also the most consistent with the positioning of Zhao Linger in my mind."

The audition segment was also remarkable.

Chen Yamei and Luo Ting smiled and commented to express their approval.

This way, there is no possibility that this role will fall to someone else.

Although Liu Yifei tried hard to remain calm, the slightly upturned corners of her mouth still revealed her inner joy.

Ye Jingzhi's eyes were filled with relief, and she said:

"Yi Fei's performance today was exceptional. It seems that she needs the guidance of an expert."

Liu Yifei couldn't hold back her smile any longer, and said with joy:
"Sister Ye, you are too kind. I really owe a lot to my cousin's guidance."

If it weren't for Du Sheng's guidance, and even reviewing the audition script twice, she wouldn't have been able to be so relaxed.

After Liu Yifei went out, another familiar figure walked in.

It turned out to be the actor who played the Drunken Swordsman recommended by Zhongyao Films.

Although Xie Junhao is not a big star in Hong Kong, his professionalism, good lifestyle and easy-going personality have won him wide acclaim in the circle.

After the role of the Drunken Swordsman was confirmed, the actors came in one after another, and Ye Jingzhi found that there were many familiar faces among them.

However, apart from approving Yang Mi's performance, she did not comment much on other actors.

Because most of the actors who auditioned this time were artists recommended by representatives from various parties, as long as they were qualified, their selection was reasonable.

But at the audition for the third female role 'Anu', Ye Jingzhi had to put away her favoritism.

Liu Shishi, who is wearing a white dress made of satin with embroidered prints, gives people a feeling of being fresh, refined, cool and leisurely.

And with a sense of affinity that is not competitive with the world.

This is not only reflected in her appearance, but also in her manners and the way she speaks her lines, which are all reserved and dignified.

In addition, perhaps because of her experience of learning ballet since childhood, her every move is elegant.

I have to say, Du Sheng has a great eye for people!

Excellent artists of this level are destined not to be buried in the future.

But that's where the problem lies.

As the young master of the Bai Miao tribe, Anu looks innocent and gives people the feeling that she is shrewd, cute and lovely.

Liu Shishi has received guidance from Du Sheng, so there is no problem with her dressing style, but when she plays the role of innocence, the elegance that follows her like a shadow is a bit strange.

This is not a question of acting.

Liu Shishi received training for nearly three months, which was much better than newcomers. After joining the group, the director also gave her guidance, so as long as she could do well, she would not get stuck.

The key is role fit.

This is quite frustrating.

Zhong Zhen, Chen Yamei, Luo Ting and others also noticed the problem and started talking to each other in low voices.

In principle, if Miracle Studios insisted on having Liu Shishi perform, they would give in.

But if you strive for excellence, then this makes sense.

Looking at the judges discussing over there, Liu Shishi felt a little nervous, but he also knew what was going on.

In fact, she had been reminded by Du Sheng a long time ago and had deliberately restrained her temperament, but it still gave people a somewhat awkward feeling.

Also, the character design and logic don't quite match Anu...

But this is my own problem, no one else's fault.

Moreover, since it was her first time acting, she didn't even expect to play such an important supporting role as 'Anu'.

The reason why Yang Mi was able to play Xiao Zhao in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" well last time was because she was a child star and had a good foundation since she was young.

She never thought that she could reach the level of this little sister from the beginning.

As long as I can play a role that gives me experience and embark on the road of acting, I will be satisfied.

After some discussion, Ye Jingzhi looked at Liu Shishi and said:

“Everyone feels that changing roles might allow you to better play to your strengths.

For example, let’s try the two roles of Nu Yuan and Jiang Wan’er…”

Liu Shishi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the crew did not ask the artists to go back and wait for notification as before, but instead gave them auditions for adjusted roles.

She also understands everyone's difficulties.

This is actually because of Du Sheng's recommendation.

After all, the crew is not controlled by Miracle Studios.

Furthermore, she is currently unable to act out the roles of cunning and innocence, and forcing herself to do so will only result in half the effort and twice the result.

On the contrary, it would be more appropriate to play a kind-hearted, elegant and infatuated fox demon.

In order to save the people, Nvyuan brought the plague upon herself, and the fox demon's good deed aroused people's sympathy.

The emotional line is also good, and the tragic ending is still fresh in people's memory.

As for Jiang Wan'er, she is considered the successor of Nuyuan, and it is also challenging for her to play two roles.

After changing the role and re-auditioning, the effect was immediate.

Liu Shishi's temperament fits the role very well, and her acting skills have also improved. The role of Anu was played by Tang Yan, a female artist newly signed by Zhongyao from the Chinese Academy of Drama.

Although she was also a newcomer, her attire as an alien girl and her curiosity about everything in the world made people remember her at first sight.

That kind of innocence, liveliness and cuteness is indeed visibly suitable.

In addition, Tang Yan’s personality is that of a sunny, optimistic, and somewhat carefree girl, which is also in line with the character setting.

The exchange of resources between Miracle Studio and Zhongyao can be considered a win-win situation.

And this does not count as a resource drop, it is just a temporary change.

When the two parties collaborate on the next drama, these resources will be exchanged back.

After hearing Ye Jingzhi's report, Du Sheng thought about it and agreed.

Because the next drama they will collaborate on is very likely to be "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", and then we can exchange them back.

For example, Liu Shishi played the second female lead, and Tang Yan was coordinated to be the third female lead.

This way, there is no favoritism towards anyone.

At the end of the day, the characters including Tang Yu, Liu Jinyuan, the Drunken Swordsman, Lin Qing'er, the Drunken Swordsman, Jiang Ming, etc. were basically selected.

Overall, the changes are not too obvious, and have even been optimized a lot.

Because Du Sheng deleted the flaws in the script from the beginning, making the overall character more full.

For example, the vulgar lines in which Li Xiaoyao always calls Lin Yueru a "slut" and Zhao Linger is called a "bitch" have been changed to make the emotions between the three more delicate.

There is also the suspicion that the unclear power system and levels caused the plot to fall apart, which has also been dealt with.

Of course, there is also the most outrageous and brainless plot in the later stage where Lin Yueru deliberately seeks death.

After this episode of the previous life came out, it was criticized and complained about by the entire Internet.

Du Sheng would naturally not allow such a flaw to lower the ratings.

……

That evening, the sunset cast mottled light and shadows through the sky above the Huairou Film and Television Base.

The shooting scene was crowded with people, but the camera kept turning.

Today, both dramas "The Vinegar Tribe" and "The Mouse Loves the Cat" are being filmed here, so a large number of people is inevitable.

Amid the hustle and bustle, a middle-aged man in a neat suit suddenly stopped by.

His eyes inadvertently swept across the filming site of "The Mouse Loves the Cat" and suddenly stopped on an actress in a bright red wedding dress.

It was Fan Bingbing who played the role of "Princess Yuehua".

She is currently filming a clip of the imperial wedding with Du Sheng.

Wearing a gorgeous wedding dress, she looked as quiet and elegant as a classical beauty, yet also charming and stunning. I wonder how many eyes she attracted at the scene.

Yang Ke's eyes flashed with surprise, and he turned to Wang Zhonglei who came to visit the studio and said:
"Who is this actress? Such a temperament is rare!"

Wang Zhonglei looked in the direction of his sight, his expression somewhat strange:
"Boss Yang, you have good taste. This is one of the four most popular actresses in Huayi, Fan Bingbing."

Yang Ke was a little surprised, and a meaningful smile appeared on his face:
"So he's an artist from your company. You guys at Huayi are really full of talented people."

At this point, he paused and said vaguely:
"I wonder if she could do me the honor of having dinner with us tonight so we can talk about the movie we're making together.

The female lead has not been decided yet, but I think she is quite suitable.”

Wang Zhonglei's expression also had a hint of amusement. As a big player, how could he not understand the subtext?

Come to think of it, he had been eyeing the enchantress Fan Bingbing for several months.

Unfortunately, there were many beautiful girls around me at that time, and I had to go abroad to be busy, so I was busy with this for a while.

Unexpectedly, Yang Ke, the old ghost, also had his eyes on it.

But this is a rare opportunity for cooperation.

Moreover, that movie is a big investment and will be distributed throughout Asia. I don’t believe Fan Bingbing will not be tempted.

While Fan Bingbing was resting, Wang Zhonglei called her aside and gave her a brief introduction with a smile:
"Bingbing, this is Yang Ke, the CEO of Wancheng Qianxi Entertainment.

You must have heard of the movie "The Ghost in the Pen". He came to the mainland this time for the preparation and casting matters.

If you are interested, come over for a quick meal tonight?"

Fan Bingbing noticed the undisguised look in Yang Ke's eyes and frowned inwardly.

She has been in the entertainment industry for several years, so how could she not understand what this kind of dinner means.

If it was at the beginning of the year, she might have been interested.

But ever since I got together with Du Shengqiu, for some reason, I no longer had any thoughts about that.

Besides, now that she has the support of a man, she has no shortage of resources, so there is no need for her to be humble.

And to put it bluntly, even if you satisfy the other party, the role may not be given to you.

She no longer wanted to play this kind of capital game.

"Mr. Wang, thank you for your consideration. However, I have two film contracts currently, so I may not be able to spare the time next year..."

Hearing this polite refusal, Wang Zhonglei's smile faded:

"It's just a meal, you don't even have time for that?"

Fan Bingbing knew very well that Wang Jinhua had fallen out with the two Wangs a long time ago, and she had long been firmly on Wang Jinhua's side, saying tactfully:

"We are in a rush here, and we will probably have to shoot until 10pm. I'm really sorry, Mr. Wang."

After some trouble to decline, she saw Du Sheng noticed her and found an excuse to leave.

But everyone knows that there is more to come.
