Seeing this familiar name, Li Xiang subconsciously frowned. It was because Meng Yao was too "famous" and scandals never stopped.
Li Xiang is a well-known domestic director. He recently won the Golden Dove Award for Best Director for his movie "Zou Ma Guan Hua" and was the talk of the town.
Li Xiang is a strict person and is serious about casting. He will never allow any flaws in his years of hard work. He will never use an artist like Meng Yao who only knows how to act like a big shot. What's more, there has already been a Meng Qingqing who satisfied him.
But the form still has to go.
"Are you sure you want to perform the scene where Fu Yue dies?"
Li Xiang was quite surprised.
You have to know that was the last scene of the second female lead Fu Yue. The emotions were very complicated and extremely difficult to perform, which required a lot from the actors.
I don’t know whether Meng Yao is planning to take an unconventional approach or just go for broke.
It should be the latter.
Meng Yao nodded: "Yes."
That was a scene chosen by the original owner, and she only needed to complete the plot.
Before coming over, Xiao Song asked her to read the plot summary of the original novel and the analysis of the character Fu Yue.
Meng Yao had a good memory and had a general understanding after just a quick glance.
Li Xiang picked up the mineral water, took a sip, and pointed at someone at random.
"Go and act with her."
The boy who was pointed at hesitated and refused to take a step forward.
Everyone knows that Meng Yao likes to create scandals. If she is really tied up by such a disgusting artist, it will be difficult to get away from it in the future.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
Suddenly, there was a loud laugh, the voice was gentle and mellow: "Director Li, I'll go, right?"
This person is Ling Xiao, a top-tier actor with both good looks and acting skills. He was invited by producer Xu Feilang to play the role of the male lead Fang Xiaoxiu, and was also a judge in the audition.
After these words were spoken, many people were stunned. You know, although Ling Xiao has a good temper, he is not the kind of person who likes to meddle in other people's affairs.
Li Xiang looked at him in confusion: "Xiao Ling, are you going to act with Meng Yao?"
For an actor like Meng Yao who has poor acting skills and artistic ethics, Li Xiang could never imagine the purpose of Ling Xiao's behavior.
Ling Xiao has a gentle and handsome appearance, and his smile makes him look even more elegant: "Meng Yao and I are acquaintances."
Meng Yao looked at Ling Xiao walking towards her, searching for information about him in her mind. Ling Xiao was the eldest son of the Ling family in Beijing, the childhood sweetheart of the original owner, and also a good brother of the original owner's husband Rong Yan.
Ling Xiao in the book likes the original owner, but as the plot develops, Ling Xiao will feel disgusted with the original owner and fall in love with Meng Qingqing.
Only Meng Yao could hear Ling Xiao's very soft voice: "Long time no see... Sister-in-law."
Ling Xiao was younger than Rong Yin, so he followed suit and called her sister-in-law.
Facing Ling Xiao's smiling face, Meng Yao just nodded.
Li Xiang: "Well... let's get started."
Fu Yue is the second female lead in "A Journey to the End of the World", and she got a beautiful, tragic and strong script. Fu Yue is the white moonlight in the male protagonist's heart, and the two grew up together. Due to the tragic death of her parents, Fu Yue changed from a gentle and shy girl next door to a ruthless female devil. The male protagonist Fang Xiaoxiu, who has a strong sense of justice, was extremely disappointed with her due to misunderstandings, and the two have been at odds since then. In the end, Fu Yue was stabbed in the heart by Fang Xiaoxiu with a sword. After Fang Xiaoxiu knew the truth, he was in great pain, but it was too late to regret.
This scene is a major turning point and climax of "A Journey to the End of the World", when Fang Xiaoxiu stabs Fu Yue to death with a sword to protect the people, and it is the last dialogue between the two.
Meng Yao quickly got into the state. When she opened her eyes again, she seemed to have turned into Fu Yue, a female devil with a tragic fate who dared to love and hate. Her eyes were full of pain and disbelief, and her voice was as sharp as crying blood.
Although Ling Xiao was surprised at how quickly Meng Yao got into the role, he quickly put himself into the role of Fang Xiaoxiu.
Fang Xiaoxiu's fingertips trembled slightly, but he still took a step back, his eyes red: "You forced me to do this! You killed so many people! This is your retribution!!"
Ling Xiao's appearance and temperament are gentle, but at this moment he is full of youthful righteousness.
Fu Yue covered his chest, as if blood was already flowing out from there.
At this moment, Fu Yue was filled with shock and pain, and was heartbroken.
However, she did not cry bitterly, nor did she feel resentment. Instead, she showed a faint smile, just like the young Fu Yue, who was as pure and gentle as a deer.
"Brother Xiaoxiu, you said you would protect me forever..."
She smiled, but her voice was extremely sad.
Ling Xiao was stunned by her smile, some images emerged in his mind, and a huge pain suddenly surged in his heart. He was stunned for two seconds before realizing that he still had lines to say.
The scene was silent for a moment, and no one had recovered from the performance that had just happened.
After the performance, Meng Yao instantly put away her expression, got up from the ground, patted her clothes, turned around and walked out of the hall.
The plot has come to an end, so there is no need for her to stay here and waste time.
As a layman, Meng Yao had no idea what acting and performance were, but she had traveled through books too many times, and the so-called acting was actually similar to her traveling through books to the mission world to play another role. She was already familiar with this kind of thing, and she had no pressure in performing.
It was not until he felt a slight chill on his knees that Li Xiang realized instantly that he had been so engrossed in watching that he accidentally spilled mineral water on his pants.
The indifference on Li Xiang's face had long disappeared, replaced by a look of satisfaction.
Meng Yao’s performance is amazing!
Especially the bright smile at the end, she really brought Fu Yue to life!!
Meng Qingqing also performed well, but her resentment at the end was too deep and her hatred was too strong. Compared with Meng Yao, it is obvious who is better.
Li Xiang was just about to drink some water to calm down, but he found that there was not a drop of water left in the bottle of mineral water in his hand.
It was the first time he had met such a talented actor. Meng Yao's performance had no traces of polish, just like a piece of natural jade, moist and transparent.
She is not acting out Fu Yue, she is Fu Yue herself!
From now on, if anyone dares to spread rumors that Meng Yao’s acting skills are not good, he will be the first to rush over and slap him!
Li Xiang couldn't contain his excitement. Just when he was about to say a few words to Meng Yao, he found that Meng Yao had disappeared long ago.
Ling Xiao returned to his seat, his heart still surging with turmoil. He had just been completely absorbed by Meng Yao, and until now he could hardly tell whether he was Ling Xiao or Fang Xiaoxiu.
This is something he has never done before even in front of actresses who have won several awards.
So when did Meng Yao become such a skilled actress
