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

Chapter 279, Frivolous Nature

Everyone was curious about what was inside.

Let the hype ferment and brew.

Li Yichun felt her heart pounding wildly, and she felt very uneasy.

This madman is probably not joking, but after watching the news all night, all I saw was news about Zhuo Wei losing his phone.

Zhuo Wei, a reporter who is good at reporting gossip, can only expose celebrity scandals. What else could he possibly reveal?

But at this moment.

He was still uneasy.

His unease was confirmed the very next day.

The contents of his phone were exposed under intense public scrutiny.

Li Yichun never expected that it contained her own information.

"Why...why am I in a bar?" Li Yichun trembled.

I clearly settled this matter with money, and my friends have all been silenced, but this angle of filming is clearly the kind of angle that only his gang of "brothers" could have filmed and recorded.

He was angry and trembling with cold.

"You're insane! Are you trying to destroy this family?"

At this time, the Li family was also in turmoil, and Liu Meng's upcoming performances were temporarily suspended.

Liu wanted to call Mr. Wang from the Mingyao Group, but Mr. Wang only answered one call – he was busy.

Then he stopped answering the phone.

Everything happened so suddenly, without any warning whatsoever.

The hype surrounding the incident was unprecedented, not only because it involved the eldest son of the Li family, but also because Zhuo Wei's hype tactics were truly masterful.

They first predict the outcome by dropping a phone, and then they actually release the bombshell news.

On the other hand, Liu Meng's friends also called to inquire about her situation.

"Can the heat be suppressed?"

"It's pointless now," Liu Meng said, slumped onto the sofa. "It's pointless now."

"Brother, releasing this at such a crucial moment in your selection process, the other party is really ruthless." Li Yuxuan was also dumbfounded, and even a little impressed. Without any prior warning, the other party released the dirt.

The title of "Role Model of the Times" is no longer valid.

At this crucial moment in the review process.

However, Li Mo's expression remained unchanged, even somewhat calm.

"At the Golden Eagle Awards, we couldn't stop my son's rise to prominence; my 'Role Model of the Times' medal was already gone..."

How can someone with questionable personal morality receive the medal of a role model of the times? He himself is a film director who produces mainstream films with the main theme of "promoting virtue and upholding national style."

He is no longer Li Modu, the role model of the times.

"Hmm," Li Yuxuan said noncommittally, "Then, what's the point of what the other party did?"

"significance?"

Li Mo said, almost as if mocking herself, "Maybe the person who exposed this wanted to tell me that even without him, I don't deserve the medal of being a role model of this era. I... don't deserve it."

The Beijing elite circle has been relatively quiet lately.

Because someone who was about to receive the Medal of Honor for his role in a film was dethroned—

He was the pride of the Beijing film circle, and indeed the entire film industry, and deserved it, but this relationship fell through.

People had a premonition after the illegitimate child was exposed, but after Li Yichun's case was revealed, there was no room for negotiation.

Candied fruit, settled with money—once all this is brutally exposed, the mask of hypocrisy will be gone.

Liu Meng knew the Li family would hold her accountable later, so that very night she filed for divorce from Li Mo, which was a dignified and proactive move.

"I was wrong about this."

Liu Meng readily admitted her mistake, but she still insisted on one thing: a mother's strength prevails, and she would protect her son at all costs.

If given another chance, she would still make the same choice.

"He's just spoiled by you." The matriarch of the Li family looked at this woman and sighed. This woman was good in every way, but her biggest flaw was spoiling her son.

"Maybe so, but there's no going back now."

After leaving the Li family's house.

She made a phone call to Mr. Wang from the Mingyao Group.

"Mr. Wang, please don't worry about my son. What I want to say is that Li Mo and I are divorced; we have different paths and cannot work together."

After a long silence on the other end of the phone, he spoke.

"So we're kindred spirits?"

"Yes, we are kindred spirits."

She is not only a mother, but also a powerful figure in the industry with her own resources.

He is a singer, a civilian military officer, and an equally outstanding artist.

She also has her own ideals, and coincidentally, the philosophy of the Mingyao Group is very much in line with her current situation.

"Don't believe what a madman says! He's insane!"

This was the last thing he said before he was taken to the police station, and it was captured by paparazzi Zhuo Da with exquisite composition, revealing a glimpse of Zhuo Da's true nature as the king of paparazzi.

The title is "Clever Young Master Li, feigning mental illness in an attempt to escape legal punishment?"

"Damn it, I despise those who cheat on their products the most!" Zhuo Wei lit a cigarette, left without a trace, concealing his merit and fame, and sent a message to Li Yun.

"How is it? Is it alright?"

"Okay."

At this moment, Li Yun was on set, participating in a reading session for "The Young Students".

What's special here is that Zhang Yu didn't have to participate in the reading; instead, he and the director watched everyone else read together.

It's not that the entire production revolves around Zhang Yu's "Red Sun." On the contrary, it's an ensemble drama where each character has their own mission and personality, and their youth is equally captivating.

This group of people are the future founders of the CCP; they are all the sun.

The reason Zhang Yu didn't need to do a script reading was because his intuition was already sufficient, even before he joined the production team.

When you feel you have enough, you don't need to continue reading; in fact, you might be afraid that it will deplete your senses.

It's important to understand that an actor's feelings can fluctuate.

Director Gong Ruofei now doesn't want Zhang Yu to drift.

"Um"

Gong Ruofei didn't have much to say about this group of young and excellent actors.

But none of them are more outstanding than Zhang Yu.

That meets his expectations.

At this moment, Li Yun looked at the young man in front of him.

That passionate young man

While reading aloud together, Li Yun was also refining the sense of this personality through the help of others.

Of course, Li Yun himself remained 'out of character' throughout.

The main problem is that once I got into character, too much of my mind was occupied by the "young man." But now, I still have to work on the script for "Silenced" occasionally, and I also have to check the news online to see how the "fallen dog" is doing now.

Seeing Li Yichun's situation and Li Mo's failure to be selected as a role model of the times.

Li Yun

He couldn't help but smile.

"I can't laugh! Damn it, I can't laugh! I'm supposed to be playing a great man, how can I laugh about something like this?"

But I really couldn't resist.

"Even without me, you don't deserve to be called a role model of our time."

at this time.

Zhang Yu, who had been watching Li Yun for a long time, finally stepped forward and said to Li Yun, "Mr. Li, there's something I'd like to tell you."

"You're not suited to playing Mr. Cai in an immersive way."

Zhang Yu observed Li Yun for a long time, and then spoke very seriously.

"If you don't know the method acting style, that's okay. You're an experienced actor, so I can guide you into the role and you can just follow along."

"I have my own way." Li Yun smiled wryly, thinking that Zhang Yu thought he hadn't found his rhythm these past few days.

Of course, it's not just that.

"We immersive actors use a part of our own personality to embody the character, but..."

Zhang Yu has discovered these past few days that Li Yun is not someone who shares any similarities with the historical figure 'Cai Sen'.

On the contrary, Li Yun possessed an extreme madness deep within him.

She has a very "versatile" temperament.

In other words, frivolous—

Yes, when multiple qualities are combined, they become frivolous.

It feels out of place.

I feel out of place compared to those "great people" from my youth.

Actually, it wasn't Li Yun's fault for revealing this "frivolous" feeling. It's just that Li Yun himself is a petty person. When a petty person sees someone they dislike in big trouble, that kind of smile is impossible to hide.

However, this nature is far removed from the concept of a "great man".

Zhang Yu observed Li Yun for a long time and also noticed this point, so he came up with his own answer in his mind.

Li Yun, by nature, was not suited to immersing himself in the life of Cai Sen, one of the Three Friends of Xiangjiang.

Forcing yourself to immerse yourself in something will only result in a mess and negatively impact your own well-being.

After discovering that Li Yun had indeed encountered difficulties with immersion during his recent reading sessions, I became completely certain of this. His true nature was not suited for it.

He, too, as an immersive actor who prides himself on his sense of immersion, "kindly" reminded Li Yun

You don't have to force yourself to do something you can't.

The immersive approach emphasizes finding a suitable fit, and becoming the character oneself.

It has a lot to do with the actor's own nature, which is why it is often said that actors who are immersed in their roles have a narrow range of roles.

Even the most versatile actress, a genius like Zhou Xun, will choose to use method acting techniques to play roles she can't fully immerse herself in. While her ceiling may not be that high, her floor is still guaranteed.

Zhang Yu himself practices dual cultivation, so even though he has the talent of the immersion school, his achievements in the method school are equally outstanding.

In fact, Zhang Yu's inherent sense of superiority comes from this.

His future lies in the likes of Chen Jianbo and other veteran TV and film actors from the central entertainment circle.

"The Young Pioneers" was one of his high-profile appearances on the world stage.

But this is definitely not the last time.
