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

Chapter 183, Moon Worship

"you"

at this time.

Although Jiang Chenggang had no idea what Li Yun was doing.

But the profound look in his eyes as he gazed at the moon gave him a chill, a tingling sensation on his scalp.

Because he could see that Li Yun seemed to have become a different person—or rather, was heading in the direction of a different person.

In short, he's not the same Li Yun as before.

Not the outgoing, introverted Li Yun.

Then Jiang Chenggang suddenly realized.

Our Li Zi is an actress!

An actor's job is to portray another person.

Li Yun plays a completely different person here.

who is it?

"I don't know the distance between the moon and the human world." Li Liguo's eyes changed from cynicism to seriousness at this moment.

They were scrutinizing Li Yun very seriously.

"I don't know, I don't know either, so we have to ask, we have to look, we have to find a solution." At this moment, Li Yun smiled slightly and said, "It is absolutely irrational to rely on others or other beings for everything. Others may lie to you, but you yourself will not."

"Alright, Mr. Li, happy Mid-Autumn Festival."

At this moment, Li Yun also packed his things, preparing to leave.

Just like when I arrived.

The only gifts they gave were mooncakes and tea for today.

There were no luxury homes, luxury cars, or beautiful women and business cards; only a pure...

actor.

He uses his understanding of the character and his acting skills to present what he presents.

After Li Yun had been gone for a long time.

Li Liguo arrived at the spot where Li Yun had just sat down and looked up at the moon.

"Yes, just how far is the moon from the human world?"

This slight curiosity.

I asked who could get this answer?

Well, you can get the answer by asking many people; many encyclopedias and magazines explain this.

But does this answer even matter?

Or is the process of seeking the answer more important?

Or rather, the attitude of seeking answers.

"Kid, the role you want isn't Tang Yu, nor is it the Drunken Sword Immortal."

At this moment, Jiang Chenggang also had some doubts.

He vaguely knew what Li Yun had just been doing; Li Yun had just been presenting himself as an actor.

Character traits presented

at this time.

Li Yun joked.

"I thought you didn't know what I was doing."

"Wow. I felt like you were a completely different person just now." Jiang Chenggang was still somewhat shocked. That feeling was absolutely real and authentic.

Up to now.

Jiang Chenggang has already experienced this firsthand.

Li Yun's own "acting skills".

I wouldn't say I've reached the pinnacle of skill.

At the very least, one could say that he has a considerable understanding of acting.

at this time.

Jiang Chenggang suddenly realized that the struggling actor he met back then had now become someone with a considerable grasp of acting skills.

She's already a second-tier actor.

"After all, I'm almost 24 years old, so why make such a fuss?"

etc.

He's so young!

Such a young, almost second-tier player!

"Damn, other people with formal training are just graduating at 24, and you're only 24?!"

Jiang Chenggang was trembling violently at this moment.

Over the years of collaboration, Li Yun's mature performance made Jiang Chenggang think that he must be around 30 years old.

After all, Jiang Chenggang didn't think there was a generation gap between Li Yun and him, a man who was almost 40 years old.

I didn't expect this guy to be so young!

"Why exaggerate like that?" Li Yun was somewhat amused and exasperated by Jiang Cheng's behavior.

"No, it's just that after working with you for so long, I almost mistook you for someone my age. I didn't expect you to be so young, really."

Jiang Chenggang slapped his forehead: "Your status has risen much faster than your peers. The actors and roles you're competing for aren't the ones the new generation is vying for; you're aiming for the roles of middle-aged actors!"

"Oh, right."

Li Yun nodded.

The role I've set my sights on.

If I had to say who I consider a better character than Tang Yu...

That must be him.

No role would suit him better than his.

At this time, Li Liguo returned to Shanghai.

As an international metropolis, one is also exposed to more new ideas and new approaches.

The entertainment industry is the same.

Shanghai entertainment circles need to carve out their own niche in the industry, be enterprising, and break free from old patterns.

The combination of period dramas and idol dramas is a common approach, and it's always been people in the Shanghai entertainment circle who have been exploring it.

Tangren Media is now quite large. It used to be an outsourcing production company in the Beijing film circle, but later it forged its own path and is now a relatively young film and television company. It has its own network of contacts and resources, but it is not particularly strong.

The path they were taking had attracted a lot of attention, leading many to invest in this emerging independent company.

Li Liguo arrived at the high-rise office and knocked on the chairman's door.

At this moment, Tang Min, the smartly dressed chairman of Tangren Media, rubbed her head and said...

"Xu Mianjiang's asking price is really high."

They were discussing the casting for the Legend of Sword and Fairy series. This was a desperate project decision by Tangren Media, which consumed a lot of resources in order to secure their own path.

"Is he still unwilling to lower the price?" Li Liguo knew that the chairman had contacted Xu Mianjiang a long time ago, and seemed to be obsessed with casting him as the villain.

"His reluctance might be because he genuinely needs the money."

"What did he do this time?"

"It seems he's come to the mainland to trade A-shares."

"Oh, okay then. You've already lost everything in Hong Kong stocks, and now you're trying to do this in mainland China? Isn't this just falling down in the same place again?"

"That's probably the allure of the financial markets; we're definitely not cut out for it."

Li Liguo didn't press the matter further.

What kind of mess is this?

At this moment.

Tang Min was also saying that Xu Mianjiang wasn't uninterested in "Chinese Paladin," but he was short of money and had to pay off debts, so the entire schedule had to be planned with maximizing financial benefits in mind.

Xu Mianjiang also really wanted to join the crew.

But unfortunately, the bank loan was pressing for payment.

They might have to go and film erotic movies again.

Of course, there are solutions.

If Tang Min offers him a top-tier price, he can join the production team.

She's currently struggling with this issue.

Xu Mianjiang is a very special actor.

He should be considered a top-tier celebrity.

His numerous past works have proven his talent.

But if it's a villain with a paranoid personality.

Then he would be a top-tier actor, or even an uncrowned movie star.

He's a truly unique type, which is why erotic films especially love to cast him. It's said that he's worked with as many as 30 actresses in the industry, which is a testament to how harmful stock speculation really can be.

The downside might be that his reputation suffers, and when he walks down the street, people might think he's a three-legged perverted sex maniac.

Li Liguo said.

"Actually, Mr. Tang, I don't think it's necessary to let Xu Mianjiang play this role."

"Our character isn't exactly a popular one, but we're still the final villain, so we can't just pick anyone." Tang Min's words also implied something.

Throughout the entire "Chinese Paladin" series, male and female characters with romantic storylines are all highly sought after, and many people in the industry have asked if they could be given a chance.

Historical idol drama.

That naturally attracts people to idols and romantic figures.

Unlike other characters, who are either universally disliked or completely ignored, he is a character that no one cares about.

The polarization is severe; everyone is very smart, chasing fame and fortune, and seeking roles that can elevate others.

Characters with romantic storylines are those who are begged by others.

Characters without romantic storylines have to be the ones to manipulate others.

"You can rest assured about that. I'm an ordinary person, a director, and a producer. Maybe I have my own selfish motives sometimes, but my stance is absolutely to make the whole TV series well. Only then can I satisfy my own selfish motives," Li Liguo said thoughtfully.

It can be considered as having a tacit exchange with the chairman of Tangren.

Don't worry about me casting the wrong roles.

This time, I'm betting my future on the Legend of Sword and Fairy.

"Of course I trust you, Director Li. Can you tell me who you recommended for the role of Bai Yue?" Tang Min said thoughtfully, resting her chin on her hands.

Inviting Xu Mianjiang would indeed be too costly.

"A rising star actor named Li Yun."

"The new generation, are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

Seven days later.

The cast for "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" has been announced.

Hu Qu, a member of Tangren Media, plays Li Xiaoyao, Liu Qianqian plays Zhao Ling'er, and Xie Junhao plays the Drunken Sword Immortal.

Eddie Peng plays Tang Yu.

"Just who is Liu Qianqian? We could only get the second male lead, but she got the female lead all by herself."

Wang Jinghua knew that Liu Qianqian was not a member of Tangren Media. She seemed to have appeared out of nowhere, enjoying abundant resources from the moment she entered the industry, and no one knew where these resources came from.

Wang Jinghua suppressed her curiosity. Perhaps she wasn't at the point where she needed to access resources at that level. Maybe the Li family would know more, but it was none of her business anymore.

"We still got the roles, the second male lead and the third female lead." Wang Jinghua smiled, seemingly quite satisfied.

The second male lead and the third female lead, both with significant roles, were both inserted into the story by people from Golden Harvest Entertainment.

One can only say that the Li family of the capital has a very useful name.

In this world, connections are everything.

Otherwise, Wang Jinghua wouldn't have been able to start from scratch as a woman. Cheng Tian Jiahe was practically a front man.

The Li family's white gloves.

Wang Jinghua is also very self-aware about this.

I understood the importance of background from the moment I entered this industry.

However, just as she was about to close the list, she saw a name that was all too familiar appear before her eyes.

Li Yun?

Wait a minute, isn't Liu Jinyuan already played by someone else?

He clearly saw that Liu Jinyuan's cast list included another person named Wang Zhongyin.

What kind of roles can Li Yun play?

While she was thinking, she saw the name of the character played by Li Yun.

Li Yun.

The leader of the Moon Worship Cult.

Moon worship.
