The Four Great Constables?

"They want you to be the male lead?"

"You're overthinking it. Do you really think that's possible?"

"Yeah, that's true."

Mingbei scratched his head, suddenly feeling that the conversation was somewhat familiar.

Xiao Di pressed on, asking, "Is it a movie or a TV series?"

She had heard of this novel before, as it had been adapted into several film and television series.

But it's unclear what kind of content this particular project that Mingbei is currently discussing will actually feature.

It's quite common for people to buy the film and television adaptation rights and rewrite the script.

The classic novels by Jin Yong, Gu Long, Liang Yusheng, and Wen Ruian have been adapted into new works in almost every era.

"The movie," Mingbei replied.

"And the director is quite famous."

"Who?"

"Chen Jiajia."

"That sounds familiar..."

Have you heard of "Fight Back to School"?

"oops!"

Upon hearing those four words, Xiao Di immediately jumped up and down!

How could she not know such a classic work?

"Wow, that's amazing! They got to work with such a great director!"

Mingbei's starting point was not low. His first screen work was with the director of Chinese Paladin, and he also played an important role in it.

This second project is not only a collaboration with a famous director, but it's also a movie!

At this rate, he'll soon be making a name for himself in the entertainment industry!

"I'm so envious..."

Xiao Di was filled with envy, but she knew that she could never have what Xiao Di had.

No freshman at the Shanghai Theatre Academy can compare to him.

"It's just an audition; whether I get the part or not is another matter," Mingbei said calmly.

"And the character won't have much screen time, plus he's a villain!"

Upon hearing the word "villain," Xiao Di looked him up and down a few times, thinking that it would be quite interesting if Ming Bei played a villain.

Aren't there villains who are both perverted and highly intelligent, and also have a cool and handsome appearance?

I feel that Mingbei would be a good fit.

"Besides this one, there might be another collaboration with Stephen Chow on a movie later..."

"What?"

If Xiao Di was only shocked by the collaboration just now, she is truly stunned now!

Suddenly, she sprang up from the chair, exclaiming in surprise.

"You're going to act in one of Stephen Chow's movies?!"

Who doesn't know Stephen Chow's name?

Their generation almost all grew up watching Stephen Chow's movies.

We were just talking about Stephen Chow's Fight Back to School, and now we're collaborating with him?

"Mingbei, you're going to soar to the heavens!"

"Then I'll take your kind words!" Mingbei smiled and closed the laptop's A-side.

"Don't worry, if I attain enlightenment, you will ascend to heaven with me!"

Xiao Di was all smiles, but then her brows furrowed, as if she had thought of something, and she shouted angrily.

"What do you mean? Am I some kind of chicken or dog?!"

"Wow, your mind works pretty fast! You figured it out so quickly!"

"Hmph, do you really think I'm stupid, Di?"

After the joke, Mingbei explained,

"It's hard to say about Stephen Chow's new film, and besides, that character is a bit ugly. You can tell from my appearance that I'm not suitable!"

If a normal person said this, they would probably be ridiculed.

But since it was Mingbei who said it, it still carries a lot of credibility.

"We'll discuss the specifics later; it depends on how the audition goes tomorrow," Mingbei shrugged.

"If Chen Jia's film clashes with Stephen Chow's film release schedule, I'd probably choose the former..."

This is the optimal solution considering all aspects. If the Four Great Constables really cannot coexist with Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons, then the former should be chosen first.

After all, the former has Liu Yifei, while the latter has no suitable actresses at all.

Liu Shishi is now his "ex-girlfriend," and he needs to prepare for his next one in advance.

Given the current situation, Liu Yifei is certainly a more suitable choice.

That woman is quite different from Liu Shishi; she's already an extremely wealthy woman.

If he could get half of it, his assets would skyrocket!

As for Xiao Di in front of me, I'll say it again...

Too young.

"Alright, here's your computer back. I need to go back and prepare for tomorrow's audition!"

Mingbei got up and returned the computer to Xiaodi.

Xiao Di took the computer. "Need any help?"

"No need," Mingbei shook his head.

"I didn't audition for a particularly important role, so I don't need to prepare much!"

Although his character was a villain, he didn't have a lot of screen time.

Moreover, it's just an audition; the main thing is to see how the actors perform on the spot.

If you don't perform well on the spot, all your preparation is meaningless.

"Okay, then good luck!"

Xiao Di can't help with these things for the time being.

After being persuaded by Mingbei to decline Jiaxing's invitation, she devoted herself to studying the basics at the Shanghai Theatre Academy and improving her acting skills.

Since there aren't many opportunities right now, let's make our foundation even stronger.

In this way, they can go further in the future!

She's still young, only nineteen, and has a long way to go; there's no rush.

After saying goodbye to Xiaodi, Mingbei pondered for a moment but did not head towards the direction of the directing department.

School hasn't started yet, and there's hardly anyone around when you go there.

It's not too late to audit some classes after school starts in a few days.

As for preparation, it seems there's no need to prepare anything special.

When he auditioned for the role of the Fourteenth Prince, he won the part with the fearlessness of a newborn calf.

In terms of acting skills now, they have acquired many more skills than at the beginning.

For example, intermediate crying scenes, basic dialogue, and basic action scenes have all greatly helped in the formation of his acting system.

In addition, his masterful eye acting skills allow him to handle a wide range of situations.

Besides, he wasn't interviewing for the male lead role, so his requirements naturally wouldn't be that high.

The following morning, Mingbei followed the address given by the casting director of The Four Great Constables to a small teahouse.

After entering, I explained my purpose to the waiter and was led to a private room.

As soon as the door opened, a man with gray hair appeared before them.

Mingbei wasn't very familiar with Chen Jiajia.

The reason he looks familiar is because I saw some of his interviews in my past life, which circulated on short videos.

He is actually a very capable director with a diverse directing style, and he made a name for himself in Hong Kong back in the day.

To Chen Jia's left sat a man who looked even more familiar.

In another ten years or so, this person will probably completely let loose and unleash their true nature.

Perhaps that variety show turned a switch on him, or perhaps it gave him a platform to fully shine.

In short, this "Demon Pill" is quite different from ordinary male actors.

"Excuse me, may I pass by?"

Before I could even greet the people inside, a soft voice called out from behind me.

Looking back, a delicate face came into view.
