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

Chapter 311, Infiltration

"My nephew really does have a unique eye when it comes to choosing scripts."

Li Yuxuan felt a slight sense of appreciation.

He himself is also a fan of spy dramas.

A struggle between faiths.

reason.

Pure will.

These are all things he likes and appreciates.

But he also understands that in this kind of script, acting skills are actually secondary.

That feeling is what matters.

That subtle feeling.

"I like him very much. If he were my son, I would never treat him like this."

"If your brother heard you say that, what would he think?"

Li Yuxuan's wife rolled her eyes at him, thankfully they were saying it at home.

"Then it'll just be you and me here."

Li Yuxuan paused and said, "But my dear nephew, at his age, probably doesn't understand what faith is. At least before I turned forty, I didn't really understand this thing either."

Li Yuxuan recalled that when he and his brother were that age, they were even confused about the future.

That's why the actors in spy dramas are always a bit older.

It's not just about acting skills.

There's also the feeling of conviction forged over the years.

This is the core of spy dramas.

"But in any case, my nephew is much better than that other good-for-nothing. If he's willing, I'd love for him to be recognized as a member of the family. I think Grandma thinks so too."

The matriarch of the Li family.

Nobody said anything.

But everyone knows that she also misses this descendant of the Li family who has been living away from home.

"If he really wants to pursue a career as a director, perhaps with our help, his path will be smoother."

If they were willing to work together as father and son, instead of going it alone.

Li Modu's strength is directing, while Li Yun's strength is acting; they can complement each other's strengths and weaknesses.

How good.

Speaking of directors...

In fact, Li Yuxuan didn't really believe that Li Yun could be a good director, after all, a person's energy is limited.

He is already an outstanding young man for being able to be a good actor and for fighting for it.

"He's the brave warrior, and my brother, the mighty general, commands him. How wonderful!"

The more Li Yuxuan thought about it, the more sense it made.

After he finishes filming "Lurking", I, as his uncle, will go and visit him.

Li Yun also rested at home for a while.

Summarize your own experience.

Not only was the upcoming infiltration mission weighing on him, but also the "Let the Bullets Fly" mission; both of these tasks were pressing down on him.

Interestingly, this time he received not only film offers, but also record offers.

Someone invited Li Yun to sing.

The superstar is very happy.

To be able to sing on a real stage.

However, Li Yun glanced at it and realized that the schedule clashed too badly with acting and filming.

However, Li Yun did not intend to make any significant achievements in the field of singing.

If you have the chance, you can occasionally sing those popular songs from your past life.

Some songs are very suitable for certain themes.

For example, Chi Ling.

It would be perfect as a theme song for some movies.

The key to making your own movies is to minimize costs.

The price-performance ratio is excellent.

Let's tidy up.

I was the lead actor, director, singer, and composer all at the same time.

At this moment, Li Yun made his preparations and set off for the film crew he was supposed to be infiltrating, at Tianjing Station.

Bordering Beijing and close to the political center, Li Yun could get there quite quickly.

"Lurking" is not a program purely produced by CCTV.

Instead, it was made by an unexpected organization.

This organization is Southern Television.

The play in Tianjing.

Southern Television.

They seem to have some completely unrelated connections.

It was produced by the Southern Television organization.

A director from the North and a production coordinator from the South—this is a rare occurrence in the industry.

Circles are not a prejudice, but they do exist objectively, and there are very few instances of cross-circle collaboration.

Li Yun could recall the last cross-industry project that caused the biggest stir: "Number One Under Heaven," followed by "The Legend of Sword and Fairy."

It's just a little regrettable.

Although both works achieved good results, there was no follow-up to the collaboration within the industry.

Li Yun believes the biggest reason, besides the fragmentation of the mainland market, is...

Another reason is that everyone feels that the credit belongs to them.

Each group believes that its own members have contributed the most.

I deserve the most credit.

If no one is willing to give in, won't the end result be nothing more than a dead end?

So what if there's no chance for us to work together again?

It's honestly a bit laughable.

Perhaps this is simply human nature.

Li Yun didn't know what to say.

It's more interesting to attribute great power to oneself.

This way, there won't be any competition or fighting between you and others.

We must concentrate our efforts on major tasks.

That is the principle that enables rapid progress in fierce competition.

Why can't these guys understand?

Li Yun thought to himself, "Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the Chinese pop culture scene is now so suppressed by Hollywood."

The domestic TV drama industry is doing alright.

The film industry is the hardest hit.

There is no leader.

No wonder Li Modu was hailed as a role model of the times.

There's really no one else to recommend.

While Li Yun was pondering, he had already arrived at the filming location in Tianjing.

When I met director Jiang Wei, he looked a little tired, with messy hair and unfocused eyes.

"Director Jiang, it's only been a few days, how come you look so weak?"

"If you were doing the same thing as me, you'd feel weak too," Jiang Wei said helplessly. "I'm the screenwriter, the director, and the producer all at once. I've been running around like crazy these past few days. How could I not feel weak?"

It seems that Southern Television and Dongxing Film Production Company also had this awareness and gave Jiang Wei a lot of power.

A promise is a promise.

If we say we'll use Li Yun, this new generation, then we'll use Li Yun, this new generation.

They didn't even look for a replacement for Sun Honglei.

"I feel alright." Li Yun thought about writing, directing, and acting in his own show. Wasn't that what he did in the Crucible?

It feels okay.

I'm not that tired.

Jiang Wei, on the other hand, was extremely weak.

"Alright." Jiang Wei was too lazy to say anything more to Li Yun. Actors don't understand the hardships of directors. Without experiencing the same things, they can't empathize.

This is just human nature.

At this moment, Li Yun simply smiled slightly and remained silent.

"This is the script I prepared for you. You will play Yu Zecheng, our male lead, the undercover agent of Mount Emei."

Jiang Wei looked at Li Yun and teased, "This might be quite different from the roles you've played before. You should be prepared for that."

"It is indeed quite different, but in terms of mental preparation, I think I am somewhat prepared."

Li Yun smiled faintly at this moment.

His eyes held a strong sense of confidence.

Strategically confident.

We still need to be cautious and careful in our strategy.

Spy dramas are a genre of television shows that feature a lot of close-up shots in small settings.

Moreover, it's convenient for acting out scenes.

Many veteran actors with a strong passion for acting will take on these kinds of scripts.

For example, Feng He'en, who had the most scenes with Li Yun this time.

A national first-class actor at the August First Film Studio.

Fighting battles in the south and north, under the waning moon over the Gobi Desert, the liberation of Shizhuang.

He appears in all of these patriotic films.

She is a veteran CCTV actor who is not well-known but has strong acting skills.

With his considerable talent, Li Yun was already a veteran actor and television star. He had seen "Lurking" and Feng Xiaogang's performance in his previous life.

The old stationmaster is deeply loved by the people.

Li Yun didn't care about how his scenes with his co-star were going for the time being.

What needs attention now is...

What kind of person was Yu Zecheng?
