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

Chapter 182, I want to know the distance between the moon and the human world.

It seems they haven't responded yet.

At this moment, Li Yun looked at Jiang Chenggang with a hint of mockery.

Jiang Chenggang was speechless.

He had clearly used every trick in the book—smoking, drinking, girls—he had used all those methods.

But the result was not satisfactory.

Liu Jinyuan —

That's the best role that can be assigned to Li Yun.

Unfortunately, there weren't any other suitable options.

What role does Liu Jinyuan play?

Li Yun knew as soon as he read the script that this guy was just a stepping stone for a gold medal.

He is also weak-willed.

When Li Yun watched "Chinese Paladin" back then, he didn't like this guy very much, and he was even less willing to play him.

"How about Liu Jinyuan?" Jiang Chenggang said in a low voice. "He's at least a character with personality. If he plays him well, it might increase the show's popularity. He's also a character with a complex emotional storyline."

I don't really like the character Wu.

In Lin Yueru's storyline, Liu Jinyuan is positioned as "Song Qingshu".

As long as you can capture Song Qingshu's essence, mastering this character won't be a problem.

But Li Yun still felt...

This role is unacceptable.

When Li Yun said he didn't want the role of Liu Jinyuan, Jiang Cheng was at a loss. This guy was completely unyielding.

Did they directly give money to Li Liguo?

You need connections to give money away; many people don't even have connections to give money away.

Besides, we don't know Li Liguo's tastes, what kind of role suits what kind of price, these are things that need to be learned through experience, and only seasoned veterans know this.

"That's an exaggeration. While there are materialistic places in the entertainment industry, it's not that extreme. Besides, this is a director who can produce good works," Li Yun said, both amused and exasperated.

"Then you can try. I have no choice. Anyway, my motto is: drinking, karaoke, foot massage, and then Moutai and Wuliangye." Jiang Chenggang looked at Li Yun and felt a little helpless because Li Yun seemed a bit out of touch with reality.

But Li Yun's eyes darted around, yet he maintained a calm and confident demeanor.

"So what do you think would be a good gift?"

Li Yun looked out the window and murmured.

"The Mid-Autumn Festival is almost here."

"It's still early."

"It's getting late. You can still buy mooncakes and tea at bakeries now. I'll get a couple of packs for Director Li to try and see if he can get me a role."

"You're dreaming!"

Jiang Chenggang is now quite speechless.

Tea leaves and mooncakes.

Just want to get one role?

This even left Jiang Chenggang somewhat at a loss for words, both amused and exasperated.

young people.

You.

They underestimated business.

"Alright, go give it a try. At the very least, we have some film contracts."

Both "Peace Under Heaven" and "KO One" invited Li Yun to play roles, although both were at the level of the third male lead.

Historical light comedies and idol dramas.

Li Yun felt it was a bit lacking, but if there really were no roles to play, it wasn't out of the question that he couldn't give it a try.

But the Legend of Sword and Fairy.

I'm sure I'll be fine.

"Don't worry, I have a plan."

"You'll come with me then."

"Huh?" Jiang Chenggang was puzzled. He had already gone there and returned empty-handed. Could he possibly get a better role than Liu Jinyuan this time by bringing tea and mooncakes? Maybe the other party would think he was being insulted.

"It wasn't you, it was him."

Li Yun's gaze was fixed on what was behind Jiang Chenggang.

Jiang Chenggang looked creepy.

It wasn't him.

He is a 'scholar'.

He is a seeker of knowledge who has a thirst for knowledge about everything.

At this moment, Li Liguo was chatting with Wang Jinghua in his new home.

This is a 400-square-meter house in the Fifth Ring Road area.

Li Liguo was quite satisfied.

He wasn't from Beijing, so he didn't need such a good location; he just needed a place to stay—Wang Jinghua really understood people's hearts.

"This place is really nice," Li Liguo remarked. "At this price, it'd probably only cost a toilet."

"You can stay here whenever you come to the capital," Wang Jinghua said with a slight smile, then poured a cup of pure West Lake Longjing tea: "Mmm, so fragrant."

Regarding "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

"Haha, quite a few people in the industry have indeed contacted me," Li Liguo admitted.

Wang Jinghua isn't the only one with good taste.

She's not the only one who knows how to get things done.

However, only Wang Jinghua has such a good background.

"But the role of Tang Yu is really popular, everyone is vying for it," Li Liguo said with a smile.

"We would like to have the Sword Immortal, but you'll have to give him to us first, right?"

That's true.

The Drunken Sword Immortal and Li Xiaoyao.

Just by reading the script, Li Liguo knew that these were two absolutely charismatic characters.

These two characters are Tangren's own creations.

Wang Jinghua doesn't demand that these two roles possess absolute charm or status, but that also means high expectations and the consequences of a mishap.

Even Cheng Tianjiahe needs to assess the risks associated with his role.

What are the chances of a good performance?

What is the probability of a poor performance?

Are risks and rewards proportional?

These are all things their company needs to consider.

Besides Tang Yu, the role of Anu was also given to Cheng Tian Jiahe.

Today, Wang Jinghua is simply having another chat with Li Liguo as a future collaborator.

"It seems that Golden Harvest has big ambitions. They not only want to have their own presence in the Beijing and central circles, but they even want to get involved in our emerging Shanghai circle." Li Liguo sighed, "How come we haven't seen any of you in the Hong Kong circle?"

"The Hong Kong entertainment industry is becoming increasingly narrow and closed off. Aside from the action stars, who can still fight, there's not much else..."

Wang Jinghua shook her head and smiled faintly.

"Besides, it's not that we at Jiahe are so ambitious. People like us are just fine cultivating our own little plot of land."

It's not that Wang Jinghua has great ambitions.

Rather, it's the Li family's ambition that's the problem.

indeed

If Li Mo really does receive the title of "Role Model of the Times".

Even if Wang Jinghua came to ask for Li Xiaoyao, they could only negotiate. There's no way around it; family influence can bring a lot of face, and even a lackey following behind can benefit from the glory.

Of course, people with both virtue and talent wouldn't be so domineering, but their status in the industry would definitely increase significantly.

His high moral character and artistic talent do not guarantee that his family members are also of high moral character and artistic talent.

They could also carry out Li Mo's ambitions on his behalf.

Wang Jinghua said.

"We have high hopes for your first historical idol drama in the Shanghai film circle. We hope you can select the right roles and achieve the right effect—quality is the most important thing."

"Indeed, that's what I hope for too," Li Liguo said earnestly.

The quality of the finished product is the bottom line.

Ding-dong-

Doorbell rang.

Someone came to visit.

"Alright, I won't stay any longer," Wang Jinghua said with a faint smile.

Especially when they saw that the visitors were Li Yun and Jiang Chenggang.

Looking at the gifts Li Yun was carrying.

puff.

Mooncakes and tea.

What era are we living in? Still giving traditional gifts.

"Truly naive young people."

"Please sit down."

Li Yun and Jiang Chenggang sat down.

Jiang Chenggang felt extremely uneasy, especially looking at the large villa.

This mooncake.

I brought these things: cheap mooncakes from a roadside bakery, and not any expensive tea.

It's not as down-to-earth and practical as the foot massage center's package.

At least it's something you can actually enjoy.

"The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and I would like to wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance, Mr. Li."

"Haha, that's very thoughtful. I've only ever heard of wishing someone a Happy New Year in advance, never a Happy Mid-Autumn Festival in advance." Li Liguo accepted the gifts, "But I'll accept these gifts from you too."

Li Liguo still admires this young man, from Erlang Shen in "The Lotus Lantern" to Cao Zhengchun in "The World's Number One".

These were all roles he had seen before, and those he portrayed were quite excellent.

Admittedly, he is very young.

But he is also a young man with potential.

She is also competing for the role of Tang Yu with a powerful company like Wang Jinghua.

but.

The character Tang Yu is in high demand.

If nothing unexpected happens, it should be given to Wang Jing.

"What do you think? I've considered it. The role of Liu Jinyuan is actually quite good, and he's not much worse than Tang Yu."

Li Liguo stroked his chin and said, "I believe you can act well."

This conversation is dead.

At least Jiang Chenggang felt that the conversation had absolutely died out.

Li Liguo had already stated his position.

Liu Jinyuan.

you can.

But besides Liu Jinyuan, we don't have any other roles for you to choose from.

At this moment, Li Yun smiled and said.

"Today we're not going to talk about the script or the characters, we just want to have some tea and chat."

"That's fine, you're welcome anytime."

We won't talk about the characters or the script.

That's great!

At this time.

Li Yun and Li Liguo started chatting, from their past work at Lijiapo TV Station to their later job changes, and then to some details about filming.

Li Yun seemed to

It's like having a hundred thousand whys.

Jiang Chenggang looked puzzled.

That's not right. The Li Yun of the past didn't have so many problems; he was like a troubled teenager.

Um.

Not right either.

He is not a problem child.

Instead, they sought Li Liguo's answer with a rational and inquisitive attitude.

I really want to know.

It wasn't asked randomly.

Without realizing it.

Li Yun's temperament also changed.

He no longer embodies the youthful spirit of actor Li Yun.

Instead, she changed her posture and appearance.

I sat upright by the coffee table, sipping tea and gazing at the bright moon in the sky.

Wise, aloof, with seemingly calm eyes.

Only absolute reason and the thirst for knowledge.

at this time.

Li Liguo also realized that something was wrong with Li Yun.

"What are you looking at?"

"I'm looking at the moon."

"What's so special about the moon? You can see it just by looking up."

"The moon." Li Yun glanced at the moon, smiled, and said, "Mr. Li, do you know how far the moon is from the human world?"

In Li Liguo's eyes at this moment.

He is no longer that young actor.

He is a wise man.

A scholar.

A scholar driven purely by a thirst for knowledge—

Li Liguo understood.

he.

The role wasn't discussed at all.

But the whole thing seems to be about the character.
