Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 559: What are you talking about?

"Teacher Nanxun is so handsome!"

"Director Lin is the best!"

"Director Lin!"

……

As Lin Li walked onto the stage step by step, the freshmen at the scene cheered spontaneously, no longer applauding perfunctorily as before.

In comparison, even when Yi Yang Qianxi came on stage just now, it seemed a little deserted.

Chen Baoguo and others in the front row were also surprised by the enthusiastic cheers and turned their heads to look sideways.

In the audience, the girl in the last row who had misunderstood Lin Li quickly sat up straight when she saw Lin Li coming on stage, staring at Lin Li on the stage without blinking.

After she calmed down, she thought about it carefully. Although she had made a fool of herself in front of Lin Li today, she also succeeded in making him remember her, didn't she?

Anyway, I have already lost face, so why can't I use this incident to get closer to him and build a closer relationship with him?

Like, in the name of gratitude?
After all, if it wasn't for him, I would have been hit by the basketball. Although it's not a big deal, it is also a reasonable reason, isn't it?
The reason is a bit lame, but that’s Nan Xun!

Before, she had never been very interested in Nan Xun. She herself was not a person who particularly liked reading. Although Nan Xun's works were very famous, she was not very interested in them.

Her family has been cultivating her artistic talents since she was young, and she doesn't have the time to read.

But ever since she saw Lin Li in the show "Longing" last year, she has been irresistibly attracted to him like many other girls.

Talented, handsome, and an excellent student, any one of these characteristics will attract many girls. When these three characteristics are concentrated in one person, he is a killer!

From that time on, she joined Lin Li's official fan club and became one of his many fans.

However, what disappointed her was that Lin Li never seemed to protect his fans and had never dropped into a fan group or super topic.

But even so, the number of members in his fan club is still increasing.

After "Longing for Life", the success of Lin Li's work after another made the fans feel overwhelmed.

Suddenly, Lin Li and his Nanxun Culture have become a huge mountain that cannot be ignored in the domestic entertainment industry.

When news came out a few days ago that Nanxun Culture was going to build its headquarters building in Beijing, she was stunned for a long time.

After calming down, she felt that today's experience might be a rare opportunity!
If something could happen with Lin Li, or even if we could be together...

The light in the girl's eyes grew brighter and brighter, and she looked at Lin Li on the stage as if she were looking at a glittering treasure.

On the stage, Lin Li held the microphone and maintained a calm smile in the face of the cheers from the audience. When the cheers gradually faded, he raised the microphone calmly.

"Hello everyone, I'm Lin Li."

"I've already felt everyone's enthusiasm. Since everyone wants me to come up and talk, we have to have some content, right?"

“I don’t know what you guys want to talk about, we can discuss it together.”

Lin Li was talking and pacing on the stage, walking from left to right, and then from right to left, as if he was strolling leisurely in the garden.

After hearing his words, the entire audience was in an uproar, but no one was the first to stand up.

"Students, this is a rare opportunity. We finally invited Teacher Nanxun to come up here. Please feel free to say anything you want to say."

"It's not easy to catch Teacher Nanxun once in a day."

Seeing this, the female host started to set the pace.

This statement really had an effect, and suddenly someone in the audience raised his hand high.

Only not in the auditorium, but in the aisle.

Lin Li took a closer look and then frowned.

Ren Min, who was an acquaintance of hers and had dinner with her before, later joined the cast of My Star, but she didn't have many roles, so I guess the filming has been completed by now.

Someone quickly ran over to the side of the stage and handed over the microphone. When the audience looked over, many people recognized that the girl was Ren Min, who was a little famous in the college.

"Hello, Teacher Nanxun. Long time no see. Welcome to our Central Academy of Drama."

Ren Min held the microphone in both hands and greeted Lin Li with a bright smile.

"Indeed. So Ren Min returned to level 18 to study again because of poor performance?"

Lin Li teased with a smile.

There was a burst of laughter at the scene. Many people who knew the situation knew that Ren Min had participated in Nanxun Culture's "Starry Sky".

People who don’t know them become curious about how these two people got in touch with each other.

"That's not the case. I just heard that Teacher Nanxun was visiting our Central Academy of Drama, so I wanted to come and see Teacher Nanxun's demeanor."

"And there doesn't seem to be a rule that people at level 16 can't ask questions, right?"

Ren Min had performed very well in the Central Academy of Drama, and then joined Guangguang. He also had dealings with Lin Li, so he naturally understood something about Lin Li's personality and responded generously.

"That's right, that makes a lot of sense. I wonder if Ren Min has any questions he wants to discuss? We can chat about it."

Lin Li smiled and spoke in a clear voice.

"I would like to ask Mr. Nanxun, as a successful director, the acting skills of the actors you have worked with have been widely recognized by the public. In your opinion, what qualities should a good actor have?"

Ren Min asked Lin Li a question in a clear voice.

As her voice fell, many people in the audience nodded in agreement. This was indeed a good question.

Xu Xiang and other leaders of the Central Academy of Drama also showed satisfaction in their eyes. This question was asked with great skill, and it was very appropriate to ask this question in the Central Academy of Drama.

Chen Baoguo, Deng Chao and others also became interested and looked at Lin Li on the stage expectantly. They also wanted to know how Lin Li, the new famous director, would answer this question.

As for Yi Yang Qianxi and Hu Xianxu in the audience, they had already sat up straight. Li Landi even turned on the video function on her mobile phone and aimed it at Lin Li, so that she could take a very clear picture from her position.

As for the girl in the last row who had a misunderstanding with Lin Li, her eyes had never left him since he came on stage.

"That's an interesting question. Let me think about it."

Lin Li smiled at Ren Min, then walked a few steps on the stage under the gaze of the audience, lowered his head and thought for a while. In just over ten seconds, Lin Li turned to the audience and raised the microphone under the expectant gaze of the audience, and spoke at a steady pace:
"First of all, I think good actors have flexibility in their performances."

“Flexibility may be an informal term, but what I mean is that an actor can adapt his or her temperament to the requirements of the role and the script, rather than forcing the role to adapt to him or her.”

"A counterexample is that many actors who are used to playing positive roles in stage plays also speak in loud and clear voices and serious expressions in movies and TV series, which is very unnatural."

"A lot of times when we say an actor has a limited repertoire, it often means they are not flexible enough in understanding certain types of roles."

“Another thing is the diversity of expression.”

“I’ve always admired Hugo Weaving’s performance in V for Vendetta.”

"I never showed my face from beginning to end. I completely relied on my actions and voice to express the character."

“There may be actors in China who can do this, but I haven’t seen any particularly outstanding ones.”

"There is still a view that actors with high box office sales must have good acting skills, but I don't completely agree with this."

“As a director, I think good box office performance and good actors are not necessarily always related.”

“I think if you can do the above two things well, you can be called a good actor.

“I don’t know what everyone thinks about this. We can discuss it.”

Lin Li finished his story, put his hands behind his back, and looked at the audience with a smile on his face.

"Clap clap..."

The first response to him was warm applause. As the saying goes, a master can tell whether a person is good or not with just one move. With just a few simple words, Lin Li made many people at the scene feel suddenly enlightened.

Not only the freshmen, but also Chen Baoguo and others in the front row applauded in recognition.

After the applause gradually died down, everyone turned their eyes to Ren Min, wanting to see what she would say.

"The reaction on the scene has already explained everything. I still have some questions, but I also know that if I continue to ask, these junior brothers and sisters will probably be unhappy. Let them ask questions next."

Ren Min replied with a proper smile.

Then she handed over the microphone.

"Student Ren Min has the demeanor of a senior student."

"Then who else wants to ask questions? If not, I will leave."

"To be honest, I have to attend classes and write scripts recently, so my schedule is pretty tight."

"If there is really no problem, then don't delay the class."

Lin Li did not hide his desire to get off work at all. He spread out his hands and said helplessly.

"Hahaha……"

"It's so funny, I can tell that Nan Da really wants to get off work!"

"If Nan Da wasn't here, I would also want to end the freshman ceremony earlier, but now I don't want to end it at all!"

“I feel the resentment from Nanjing University, hahaha!”

……

Everyone at the scene burst into laughter. They didn't expect Lin Li to speak the truth so vividly.

Xu Xiang and other leaders of the Central Academy of Drama could not help but shake their heads and laugh in the audience. Only with Lin Li's status and age could he say such words without being rude and making people feel very down-to-earth.

Obviously, the freshmen from the Central Academy of Drama today will not let Lin Li off so easily.

In the audience, Li Landi stood up, smiled dignifiedly, and raised his right hand to signal Lin Li.

Seeing her stand up, someone immediately came forward and passed the microphone to her through each freshman.

"Oh, it's Yu Zhouzhou."

"I want to know if Yu Zhouzhou doesn't know how uncomfortable it is to stay late for class?"

Lin Li joked when he saw Li Landi standing up.

"It's a rare opportunity for me to meet Teacher Nanxun, so I can only shamelessly let you suffer for a while."

Li Landi, who was a little nervous at first, felt relieved immediately when she heard Lin Li teasing her with the name of her character in the drama. She smiled and responded very cooperatively.

"Okay, then what do you want to ask, Li Landi?"

Lin Li raised his eyebrows slightly and chuckled.

"I just heard Teacher Nanxun talking about writing scripts, so I wanted to ask you a question other than movies."

"Because I also have a hobby of reading, I have read many of your books. Your style is also very varied. I have always liked it very much. Each of your books gives me a different feeling when I read it."

"I sometimes try to write when I have free time, but I often can't keep calm and always want to do something."

"So I would like to ask Teacher Nanxun, how can I calm down and persist in writing?"

Li Landi said a lot of things in one breath, and after finally asking the question, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Her question also perked up many people at the scene. After all, everyone knew that Lin Li was a writer first and a director second.

A big part of the reason why his works are so successful is because he has a huge number of fans supporting him.

Of course, they were also curious about whether Lin Li would persist in writing.

"I didn't expect that students from our Central Academy of Drama also have an interest in writing. Li Landi's hobby is great."

"When it comes to persisting in writing, you have to lift your butt."

Lin Li looked at Li Landi, and his light voice echoed throughout the venue through the microphone.

As his voice rang out, many people in the audience were stunned.

I'm obviously asking you about your writing, why are you talking to me about your ass?!
