Chapter 72 Intoxicated
Although he decided to shoot the drama "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio: The Flower Girl", after getting the script, Li Boda took advantage of the two days of rest after the filming of "The Chinese Paladin" was completed to read the script several times and study it a little.

After all, with Li Boda's current acting skills, he can make a good film out of any ordinary TV drama script with just a little research.

After returning home, Li Boda carefully read the script of "Liao Zhai: The Flower Girl" twice, and then commented on the character of Taozui, which was probably a warm man - well, it was at that time that the word "suck-up" did not exist, otherwise he would really have attached it to Taozui.

Then the heroine Hua Gu Zi is a love-brained person.

In fact, after reading the script, Li Boda felt that the snake demon in the play was quite pitiful.

Yes, it's quite pitiful.

This snake demon hid in the mountains and practiced silently for hundreds of years. She never ate anyone and didn't even have the thought of hurting anyone. She was devoted to the Tao and practiced wholeheartedly in order to survive the heavenly tribulation and achieve enlightenment.

She was practicing well in her cave when a deer stole the inner elixir she had practiced for hundreds of years.

After much difficulty, she caught up with the Zhangzi, but was stopped by Taozui, who crushed her inner elixir and fed it to the Zhangzi. The Zhangzi then transformed into a human, Hua Gu Zi, and went to pursue the male protagonist An Youyu. Where was the snake demon?

Having lost his inner elixir and on the verge of a catastrophe, he had no choice but to collaborate with the villain in the play and become a villain himself.

This snake demon was really forced to become a villain.

Of course, Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio is full of love stories, not to mention that it was adapted into a TV series.

So there is no other way but to sacrifice the snake demon for someone else's love.

After reading the script several times and getting familiar with the role, Li Boda had almost figured out the role of Taozui, and it was not difficult for him to play it.

So next, make money!

Yes, it’s about making money!

Take on commercial performances.

Li Boda started to take on another wave of commercial performances, and money continued to flow into his bank account.

The main reason was that Liberdat was distressed by the tax he had paid before. After all, it was 45%! Almost half of his income was gone, so he was determined to earn back the money he had paid in taxes.

After taking on a wave of commercial performances crazily and increasing the numbers in his bank account, Li Boda came to the crew of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio: The Flower Girl".

After arriving at the crew, Li Boda met the male and female protagonists of the play.

Looking at the two actors from Taiwan, Li Boda couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Why do mainland TV dramas always like to invite people from Taiwan or Hong Kong to play the male and female protagonists?

Are mainland actors inferior or something?

Well, this is indeed the case now!

Although [Chinese Paladin] also invited Taiwanese actors, at least the male and female protagonists are mainland actors.

After joining the crew, Li Boda greeted the actors who played the male and female protagonists of the play with a smile.

How to say it, they seem to speak in a coquettish voice, but they still give people the feeling of arrogance. They give people the feeling that they are Celestial Dragons. Even if they look polite on the surface, in fact, they still show contempt for mainlanders in their bones.

Then Li Boda was too lazy to look for them and took the initiative to greet them.

After all, Li Boda doesn't have the attributes of an M in his bones.

"Boda! I didn't expect that we would work together again this time!" Wang Yan greeted Li Boda with a smile.

"Yeah, I didn't expect that we would be working together again so soon." Li Boda also nodded with a smile.

Although Wang Yan and Li Boda had been relatively restrained in their interactions on the set of "The Four Great Constables Meet in Beijing", they were more or less happy to meet again on the set of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio: The Flowery Girl", especially since the male and female protagonists of the crew were from Taiwan.

What's more, Wang Yan's previous dream made her feel a little strange towards Li Boda.

So when they met again, Wang Yan was quite kind to Li Boda.

While taking the final makeup photos, the heroine Zhang Ting's boyfriend came to visit the set.

A man in his forties, also an actor, who played Yan Nantian in "The Twins".

After this person arrived, the first thing he did was to declare Zhang Ting's sovereignty, so that others would not have any bad thoughts about Zhang Ting.

Li Boda didn't have any thoughts about Zhang Ting. After all, under normal circumstances, Li Boda would not have many thoughts about the opposite sex, let alone a Taiwanese actress.

However, Li Boda noticed that Qiu Xinzhi, who played the male protagonist An Youyu in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio: The Flower Girl", had a strange look on his face when he saw Zhang Ting's boyfriend who was in his forties.

It was obvious that Qiu Xinzhi had some feelings for Zhang Ting at first. Li Boda didn't care what the male and female protagonists thought, or anything else. He quietly changed his clothes, put on a wig, and took the final photos with a green bamboo flute.

Li Boda showed them all: a stern and cold expression, a gentle and elegant expression, and a doting look in his eyes.

The director and photographer were very satisfied with the results of these photos.

Calling him Li Boda directly is the intoxication in their hearts.

Of course, after the final makeup photos of the others came out, the director and photographers all praised them, especially the Taiwanese male and female protagonists.

It was almost another week of martial arts training. After the training, the opening ceremony began.

The opening ceremony of this drama was quite lively, with many reporters showing up.

After all, putting aside other things, Zhang Ting, the heroine of "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio: The Flower Girl", is really popular!
Most of the dramas Zhang Ting has filmed in mainland China in recent years have seen skyrocketing ratings and have become hugely popular TV series. It can be said that in mainland China, there are hardly many actresses who can surpass Zhang Ting in popularity.

So now, whenever people hear that Zhang Ting is going to film a drama, the drama will attract a lot of attention before it is even filmed.

During the press conference, it seemed as if Zhang Ting was the only person in the eyes of the reporters. Everyone else was just her accessories. Even the male lead, Qiu Xinzhi, received far less attention than Zhang Ting.

Not to mention Li Boda, the second male lead of the play. Except for a few reporters who paid a little attention to Li Boda, almost no other reporters paid attention to him.

This made Li Boda feel like he was being treated the same way as when he was filming "A Chinese Ghost Story".

Although Li Boda also understood this situation, he still felt a little depressed.

After the opening ceremony, the crew officially started and entered the shooting phase.

The first scene the crew filmed was of course the one with the male and female protagonists.

Li Boda stood outside, watching the two people filming.

How should I put it about the acting of these two people? They both have a pretty good grasp of the role.

Li Boda didn't have much understanding of the actor Qiu Xinzhi. In his opinion, his acting skills were just okay, which was more than enough for filming a TV series.

As for Zhang Ting——

In Li Boda's opinion, Zhang Ting's performance seemed to be almost exactly the same. Should I say it's bad? Not bad, but the style is almost exactly the same as her previous dramas, and her acting skills don't seem to have improved much.

The first TV series that Li Boda watched Zhang Ting in, or the TV series that left a deep impression on him, was "The Twins". She had two dimples when she smiled, and gave people the impression that she was a quirky and naughty girl.

Later, in "Love Across Time and Space", the role she played seemed to be no different from the one in "The Twins".

The same is true of the later [Fire Marshal].

Now watching Zhang Ting filming, Li Boda is sure that this Hua Guzi is still the same template!
Of course, Li Boda actually has nothing much to say about Zhang Ting using only one template to shoot so many dramas. After all, as long as the audience likes the dramas shot using Zhang Ting's template, that's enough.

Just like Zhang Weijian, all his TV series are almost the same template. No matter which drama or what role he plays, he can always perform in the same style. But the audience likes him.

In Li Boda's opinion, Zhang Ting's situation is almost completely different from Zhang Weijian's, except that one is a male actor and the other is a female actor.

But since the audience likes it, there is something worth learning from them.

However, after determining Zhang Ting's performance style, Li Boda was able to determine the performance style of this role when he played the role of Taozui.

After all, as the second male lead, even if his personality is outstanding, he still has to be able to match the style of the heroine.

Otherwise, even if Li Boda's acting skills are excellent, the intoxicated character he plays does not match the style of the heroine, and it would be a failed performance.

As for the male lead, whether or not the acting style matches that of the male lead is not something that needs to be considered. After all, there are relatively few scenes between Tao Zui and the male lead, so there is no need to consider it too much.

……

Li Boda was wearing a white robe with a bamboo-like pattern on his coat and a white scarf on his head. When he sat in front of the camera, he seemed like a different person. He exuded a sense of coldness, but at the core of this coldness was a sense of arrogance, or rather, a sense of pride.

The director and other crew members couldn't help but light up their eyes when they saw Li Boda like this.

Even if you don't know the plot or the character played by Li Boda, just by looking at him, you can vaguely connect Li Boda with bamboo.

It’s mainly because of the temperament, it really matches them perfectly.

Even when seeing Li Boda like this, many people would subconsciously think of some poems about bamboo.
