I'm not mentally ill, I'm a master of a thousand faces!

Chapter 165, Regret it now?

At this moment.

The Heavenly Court crew has already moved to another film set to shoot.

The agarwood crew who stayed here were filming a scene.

"You are Chenxiang, the son of the Third Holy Mother, a bastard born from the hybridization of a mortal and a god. How dare you compare yourself to a born dragon like me?"

Liu Yehong's little white dragon glanced sideways at Chenxiang.

His disdainful and arrogant demeanor made it hard not to think that he was a true playboy, a spoiled brat in his own right.

The sense of déjà vu is just too strong.

The story that follows is roughly about Chenxiang and his fourth aunt taming the unruly white dragon.

He and Chenxiang are completely in a control group.

Although Chenxiang's personality is somewhat eccentric, he is generally a kind, impulsive, and passionate male protagonist.

Liu Yehong's character, the White Dragon, has a personality completely opposite to Chenxiang's. Even staying in the main group isn't voluntary—it's only after meeting Dingxiang, played by Lin Yiping, that he settles down and reforms.

The filming along this route.

In Yu Mingsheng's words.

Given Liu Yehong's current acting skills, if the initial choice to portray Erlang Shen hadn't been so abstract, he should have been given this role.

Unfortunately, his comprehension skills weren't up to par at the time.

The angle chosen to depict Erlang Shen is completely untenable.

"His acting is quite good, this Liu Yehong." Even Ye Jiunian, who was watching from the side, was somewhat surprised.

"Do you think he's just a nepotism hire? If he were, we wouldn't dare let him act in this role."

Yu Mingsheng nodded in satisfaction.

The unruly little white dragon eventually transforms into a gentle young man, pursues the love in his heart, and understands his own thoughts and feelings, as well as the true meaning of what he has gained!

The passionate young man eventually matured and split Mount Hua to save his mother.

What an exciting story!

This is the kind of story that young people should enjoy.

Filming for the agarwood crew is still ongoing.

"Well done." At this moment, Yu Mingsheng smiled and patted Liu Yehong on the shoulder.

"Thank you, director. It's what I should do."

Liu Yehong smiled, a faint smile.

These are the things I've accomplished as an actor.

That's only natural, isn't it?

Try your best to play your role well—and Liu Yehong happens to have that ability.

Although I didn't get Erlang Shen this time, I still got the White Dragon.

With the producer adding scenes, his screen time became almost the same as Chenxiang's.

Could this be considered a kind of "misfortune may turn out to be a blessing in disguise"?

I became a member of the main cast.

And you are still the 'villain'.

of course.

If you have to choose.

Liu Yehong will definitely choose Erlang Shen again.

after all.

Erlang Shen, that character is quite handsome.

But it's not a big problem.

He's just handsome.

"Actually, I think you're more suited to play Erlang Shen. The guy who plays my uncle is good-looking, but he's too young. I don't know if I'll be able to call him uncle when filming starts." Cao Jun muttered to himself.

He was a child star.

Although his acting skills lack some refinement, he can still handle the role of a passionate young man.

"Indeed, quite young."

"Brother Liu is really nice," Shu Chang whispered from the side. "He has a very big brother vibe."

Although Liu Yehong has a somewhat roguish look, he's actually a fun older brother outside of filming, at least that's what Cao Jun and Shu Chang thought during the reading session.

If he were to play Chenxiang's elder...

At least.

Cao Jun felt that it wouldn't feel too out of place.

During the opening ceremony, Cao Jun saw Li Yun and felt that this Erlang Shen, who was not much older than him, was handsome but too young.

This young man is becoming his own uncle.

The sense of immersion is poor.

"We didn't see him in our group's rehearsal to get into character, but I guess his acting is pretty good too. He got all the roles that Uncle Li played before."

Shu Chang said in a low voice.

Uncle Li refers to Li Jianyi, whose role in "The World's Finest" was snatched away by someone else, which many people do not understand.

"Oh, I heard. It's going to be delayed, but it'll have to air eventually, right? Even an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her in-laws, right?" Cao Jun shrugged.

Of course, the success of "Eight Heroes" and "Red Dust Girl" also told the people present.

There's a 90% chance that "The World's Number One" will flop.

Furthermore, given the delayed release, it might clash with "Storm Riders 2".

The results of "The World's Number One" are even less meaningful, at least not many people care about them here anymore.

"Alright, stop chatting. The next scene is about to start filming. Let's focus on doing our jobs well."

Liu Yehong smiled faintly at this moment.

He would also glance at Yu Mingsheng's side from time to time.

This director.

They're probably already regretting choosing Li Yun, this young man.

Zhang Dahuzi and Li Liguo have arrived on the set of "Lotus Lantern".

I also watched Liu Yehong's acting performance.

"Liu Yehong's acting was indeed quite good."

The two had already watched several scenes they had filmed.

It's a play starring Liu Yehong, Cao Jun, and Shu Chang.

Li Liguo looked at Liu Yehong and exclaimed, "This middle-aged actor really has some good acting skills."

"Even if he has connections, he has powerful connections."

"Yes, that's true."

Zhang Dahuzi agreed with Li Liguo's opinion, saying, "Shuchang isn't bad either; she's not much less attractive than Liu Qianqian."

"Actually, I think there's a big difference."

Li Liguo also said something.

Zhang Da Huzi was just being polite.

Shu Chang is very beautiful and has a lot of charm. She has that girl-next-door vibe with a touch of coquettishness, which is a rare quality.

This wasn't the first time the two had interacted.

The last time Shu Chang played was as the Tianshan Child Granny in "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", and her acting skills were quite good.

But Liu Qianqian is naturally beautiful, the kind of person who looks like a fairy descended from heaven.

When a fairy descends to earth, all mortals should step aside. The beauty of an ordinary person can never compare to that of a fairy descending to earth.

at this time.

Yu Mingsheng also came to receive Li Liguo and Zhang Dahuzi.

We talked about some things.

"This is Ye Jiunian, our go-to screenwriter. At the time, everyone was against it, but Ye Jiunian insisted on casting Li Yun."

At this moment, Yu Mingsheng smiled, knowing that Ye Jiunian might have regretted it a little later, but he was just being stubborn.

After seeing Liu Yehong's performance, one might wonder if choosing a new generation male actor was somewhat inappropriate.

Do you still think he can bring out the character's arc?

However, at this very moment.

Ye Jiunian, however, displayed a completely different attitude.

"Absolutely. Absolutely."

"I believe Li Yun can perform well."

So stubborn!

At this moment, Yu Mingsheng was also somewhat surprised; this guy seemed quite confident.

"Alright, I look forward to your performance. Anyway, I'll focus on filming the agarwood segment here."

When the scenes from both sides intersect, we'll know whether it's real gold or fake.

Yu Mingsheng no longer cared about the specifics.

Zhang Dahuzi and Li Liguo didn't stay there for long either, as they also wanted to go and take a look at the Heavenly Court group.

"If I really don't act well later, don't laugh at me." Zhang Dahuzi looked at Li Liguo next to him, whom he had specially called over to take a look at the young man he was mentoring.

If things go wrong, that wouldn't be good.

Li Liguo smiled and asked, "How could that be?"

After all, he didn't come with any expectations. Besides, the entertainment industry isn't something you can just promote anyone to fame; this kind of thing is all too common.

Actually, he paid quite a bit of attention to Liu Yehong.

"It would be interesting to see if Tang Yu Xiaobao will have a place then."

It turns out that his real intention was not what he seemed; he came with another purpose this time.

Yang Hui was in charge of filming the Heavenly Court scene.

This scene was quite important, so we quickly filmed it while the actors from the Heavenly Court were still in the mood.

The first appearance of all the gods gathered together.

The affairs of the Holy Mother and Chenxiang will eventually be exposed in this place where one day in heaven is three years on earth.

Meanwhile, all the gods and immortals of Heaven gathered together.

It also introduces the attitudes of these deities to the audience.

"I'm in great shape right now, and I can get into character anytime," Ma Weiguo said with a smile. As a seasoned actor, getting into character is a piece of cake for him.

"Alright, everyone get ready. Our Jade Emperor, our Queen Mother, and Venus, please be careful."

At this moment, Yang Hui was talking about the positioning. He is also a veteran director with many years of experience, and his skills are definitely no less than Yu Mingsheng's. Otherwise, he would not have been able to take full charge of filming a location on his own.

He now feels that way.

The veteran actors in front of me have such a strong presence.

Even among veteran actors, there are differences. When Liu Benchang stands there, Xie Ning, a veteran actor with relatively poor skills, doesn't stand out at all.

Not to mention that the main focus of the shots will be on Erlang Shen and his companions later.

As expected of the Living Buddha Ji Gong, his skills have not diminished at all over the years. If he could truly immerse himself in a role and become a complete immersive actor, his acting skills would be terrifying.

"If they need a few takes, let them tone it down. For young people, the veteran actors' presence is just too much," Yang Hui remarked at this moment.

"Why is the makeup team taking so long?"

Now only Li Yun hasn't appeared yet; when asked, she's said to be putting on makeup.

The makeup artist was really slow.

"Let's practice it once first."

Right now, in the dressing room.

After hesitating for a moment, the makeup artist said, "Mr. Li, are you sure you want to use this outfit? It's quite heavy. Can you really use it for acting?"

This is made of real metal, not cardboard.

"I'm sure it can be done."

At this moment, Li Yun's voice was deep and magnetic, making the makeup artist tremble. The authority in his voice made her feel somewhat intimidated.

"Yes, yes."

The words fell.

Li Yun.

wrong.

Erlang Shen, the strongest war god in the heavens.

He was clad in gilded silver armor and carried a double-edged sword weighing ten pounds.

Stepping outside.
