Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 7 Author's Appreciation
Tong Hua, the author of Startling by Each Step.

After the fire of Bubujingxin.

The remaining books have also been purchased for adaptation rights.

For example, Tencent is preparing to start filming the ancient fantasy fantasy drama "Chang Xiangsi". As the author of the original novel, he was invited to join the crew to start preparations and casting. There are four male protagonists in this book.

They are Xuanxuan, Tushan Jing, Chishui Fenglong and Jiuming Xiangliu.

The heroine was chosen to be Dilraba Dilmurat's chosen rival Yang Ni'ao, while Xuan Xuan, Tu Shanjing and Chishui Fenglong chose new generation actors Zhang Wanyi, Deng Wei and Wang Hongyi respectively, but finally, the soul male protagonist Xiang Liu of the book has not yet been decided.

During this period, many actors came to the crew for interviews.

But no one is very satisfied.

The role of Xiangliu requires the actor to have a strong understanding and excellent appearance. The character's personality is also extremely full. As one of the best spiritual masters in the Great Wilderness, he is called the Nine-Life Xiangliu and the Undersea Demon King because he is a nine-headed snake demon in the sea.

In order to repay his kindness, he served as the general of Shennong's righteous army and was adopted as an adopted son by Gonggong. He was feared by the royal family and many clans in the Central Plains.

He is handsome and charming, with outstanding demeanor, cold and cruel, but also has a gentle and affectionate side. His other identity is Fangfeng Bei, the second son of the Fangfeng family, who is casual and unrestrained, playing with the world and being unruly.

Such conditions are not suitable for new generation actors.

Even if there are four big and three small, no one is suitable.

Not to mention that they look down on this soulful male protagonist, who is actually only the third male lead in the fourth ranking. Today's actors attach great importance to their ranking because they have the capital.

As for other characters, Tong Hua just feels that they are suitable for the role at best.

But the character of Xiangliu is extremely emotional.

He is also the only male character for whom he wrote a sequel to "Chang Xiangsi". In her heart, this role is too important. Even the title "Chang Xiangsi" refers to the heroine Xiaoyao's longing for Xiangliu.

Chief Director Qin Zhen said, "Tong Hua, let's finalize it quickly. Starting filming sooner won't put pressure on us. They've been pushing us a lot lately."

As a female director, I have a better understanding of ancient idol dramas than men.

Because the audience of ancient idol dramas is mostly girls.

"I want to start filming, but I really don't have any actors who can impress. If the character is not good, the fans will definitely not buy it. That will ruin the IP, and the revenue will not be much better."

"You're too stubborn. Just find a pretty newcomer and it'll be fine. I also want to complete this work well, but the situation is unforgiving. Tencent is pushing us hard, and the other actors' schedules are set. I can't delay the entire crew for the role of Xiangliu."

After the two of them had a heated exchange of words.

Tong Hua had no choice but to let go of her stubbornness and agreed to find an actor to start filming.

This has both advantages and disadvantages.

After all, she just came to the crew to provide guidance.

The revenue of the show at that time has nothing to do with her.

But the disadvantages are also obvious.

As Chang Xiangsi's most popular character, even one with super popularity in female channels, if anyone is randomly chosen to play the role, the book will be ruined.

She sighed deeply and was about to let go.

"Bang" sound.

The door was opened.

It was the executive director Yang Huan, who had long French-style hair, a mustache, and wore glasses. He was holding a mobile phone and looked very happy. He walked quickly up to the two of them.

Qin Zhen asked: "What's wrong? Why are you so happy?"

Tong Hua looked at Yang Huan with curiosity on her face, but she was worried and seemed a little melancholy even though she was curious.

Yang Huan handed the phone to them.

Tong Hua took the phone and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The photo on the phone screen was Xu Yien's makeup photo for that night. He was wearing white clothes and white hair, with a tall and graceful figure and a bit of evil charm on his face. However, just from the photo, one could feel his cool and ethereal temperament and his demeanor was pleasing to the eye.

Yang Huan laughed and said, "This is Xu Yien, one of the male leads in Cool Factory's new drama Soul Guardian. Isn't this white-haired guy the chosen Xiangliu? I asked Zhou Yuanzhou about him. He has great acting skills and is very humble. The key is that his salary is low and he doesn't care about his ranking!" "Then notify him quickly!"

"I'm just giving you a quick review. If you're not satisfied, I won't bother looking for him anymore, but judging by your reaction, I think the matter is settled!"

"I invited him myself!"

Tong Hua volunteered.

The most important role meets the most suitable actor.

Invite with 100% sincerity.

But in fact, given the popularity and fan base of this character, even if Tong Hua didn't personally invite him.

Even if it's just an audition, Xu Yien must come. The character's personality is more important than the ranking.

"Hey, Sister Ni'ao, have you heard? Xiangliu said he's looking for that Xu Yien."

Yang Ni'ao is her real name, and her current stage name is Yang Zi.

Her current traffic is far less than that of Dilraba Dilmurat.

Thanks to Xiaoxue's high national fame in Home with Kids, she has no shortage of female lead roles to play, and she also has some investment projects of her own.

At present, she is choosing the path of ancient costume dramas to accumulate traffic.

I heard Zhang Wanyi say this on the other end of the phone.

Yang Zi jokingly joked, "I've heard of him. He's quite handsome, but not very popular. He's also rumored to be Dilraba Dilmurat's boyfriend? That's pretty good. Dilraba Dilmurat's boyfriend is my fourth lead. Isn't that a definite advantage?"

In fact, her relationship with Dilraba Dilmurat is not that bad.

Just simply unfamiliar.

It’s just that the audience often compares the two.

The two teams began to torture each other.

"He's quite handsome, and I'm looking forward to seeing him play Xiangliu. But I hope my popularity won't be badly affected?" Zhang Wanyi on the other end was a little nervous.

It's so hard to play the leading actor.

How could you, the third male lead, choose someone as handsome as this?
This game is hellish.

I’m afraid I’ll break it!

Although he is called the third male lead, in fact, the four male characters are all male protagonists, but the TV series has to be revised after all, so the final male protagonist is still Xuanxuan.

"Don't be so nervous, right? A lot of people scold me for not looking good, but every time I play the same role, the other female characters can't outshine me. Sometimes I look very handsome alone, but not in group photos. Maybe Xu Yien is not as good-looking as you in the same frame in the play."

Yang Zi is just talking nonsense.

This is why the uncertain word "maybe" is used.

Zhang Wanyi was ashamed.

You can talk.

But it's comforting to hear it.
Ugh.

I know it is my destiny to act with such a handsome guy.

"Well, just comfort me. Xiangliu is already very popular, and this time Tong Hua personally invited Xu Yien, which shows how much he values ​​him.

When the show airs, he will definitely be the most popular, no doubt about it, this isn't a dark horse, this is a clear favorite character."

"Just play your part well. Sharing joy is worse than enjoying it alone. We have to look at the bigger picture. If the show is successful, everyone will benefit from it!"

"You're right. We have to get along well with them when the time comes."

"We can't be brothers with just anyone. Just get along naturally~"
