The drama "Sister-in-Law of the Li Family" has officially entered the final stage.
Wang Xiaoman's eyes were almost unbelievable after watching Mei Zihan finish the second half of the play.
Mei Zihan made progress too fast.
Whether it's lines, demeanor, or body expression, they are completely different from the previous Mei Zihan.
If the former Mei Zihan could only rely on time and qualifications to slowly survive, now he is qualified to play some main supporting roles in dramas.
Violence!
This was the first thought that came to Wang Xiaoman's mind.
Mei Zihan has such great potential, but it didn't show until he was 27 years old? It might be better if he is still a blank slate, but he has already pressed countless dog blood dramas and family mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas on his head.
This kind of experience will make Mei Zihan subject to doubts from all walks of life, and the road to fame will be more difficult than ordinary amateurs.
Originally, Wang Xiaoman's expectation for Mei Zihan was just to hope that he could get rid of this kind of drama and act in some dramas that could be called "acting". But now, Wang Xiaoman didn't know how to talk to Mei Zihan.
If Mei Zihan progresses at this speed, he will be out of tune with those small crews, and the director's shots will not be worthy of his performance. But for the big crew, it's hard not to mind Mei Zihan's previous dramas.
There is nothing sadder than having hope and losing it.
Wang Xiaoman's breathing became tense.
She felt it was her fault.
Perhaps because of her pregnancy, Wang Xiaoman is more sentimental than before. She almost regarded Mei Zihan as her own younger brother. But now, she found that asking Mei Zihan to work hard might only make his life more difficult.
No, she has to make up for something.
Mei Zihan didn't know about Wang Xiaoman's complicated psychological activities.
If he knew that his rapid progress was attributed by Wang Xiaoman to "being motivated to make progress", he would definitely raise his hands in surrender and obediently tell the truth.
But Wang Xiaoman was very considerate and didn't ask any more questions.
Because Mei Zihan contributed more outstanding acting skills than before in this drama, screenwriter Zhang showed mercy and gave "Xiao Wenwu" a good ending.
In the original setting, Xiao Wenwu wanted to turn to the traitor because of love and hatred, and was finally arrested by Xiao Lan's righteous family killing report. Now, it was Xiao Wenwu who went undercover to the "traitor", but exposed himself because of Xiao Lan, and finally died generously.
Before Xiao Wenwu died, the third male lead, who loved the heroine, brought a letter to Xiao Lan, saying that he knew a rich lady and went abroad to study together. In the last scene, Xiao Lan is getting old, slowly telling her grandchildren about her "promising younger brother".
If in the previous script, Xiao Wenwu was still a character who was both good and evil, and somewhat angry, then in the final ending, his past mistakes will undoubtedly be erased, and his character will be deeply transformed. Undertook the tears of the last episode.
Except that the director still felt that the abuse was not thorough enough to be enjoyable, everything else went surprisingly smoothly.
On the day of wrapping up, the entire crew breathed a sigh of relief.
It finally came to an end before the funds ran out, and the next thing is to be responsible for buying the show to the TV station and returning the funds.
While removing her makeup, Wang Xiaoman pretended to be casually looking at Mei Zihan beside her and asked, "Meizi, do you have any plans after this drama is finished?"
"After getting the pay, I will repay the rest of the loan at one go, and then..." Then of course, I have to take a good rest, and by the way, in the name of learning, I request to play with Jiang Ying, and act in some content that is not suitable for children!
Just thinking about it, Mei Zihan felt his face heat up again.
This is still inspired by the last time I played a woman.
If he plays a woman, he can play against Jiang Ying, throw himself into his arms by the way, and rehearse a kiss scene or something.
He can be regarded as an actor anyway, and he will definitely be very dedicated.
Kissing is not good enough, I will definitely do it all over again!
"Your house hasn't been renovated yet." Wang Xiaoman continued to ask, "Although the house has been handed over, the decoration is still a lot of money." The implication is to ask Mei Zihan if he will work hard to take on a few more dramas to save money up.
"It doesn't matter. My previous apartment can still be rented, and Jiang Ying insisted on sharing half of my rent. I can't persuade him. In fact, his daily cooking is a big expense, but he never talks I count this." Mei Zihan was half showing off and half regretful.
In fact, he is really not that poor, but Jiang Ying seems to feel that he is poor.
But in Mei Zihan's view, Jiang Ying, who is a teacher, should be even poorer. After all, the Chinese teacher can't carry out any project research, and there is no extra money.
Wang Xiaoman was helpless.
She asked Mei Zihan tactfully that she didn't understand at all. If Mei Zihan went to those highly competitive crews in the future, wouldn't she be swallowed alive
"I'm asking, have you ever thought about continuing to take on the role?" Wang Xiaoman asked straight to the point.
"Well, the few directors I know recently don't seem to be planning to shoot, and I can't take it if I want to." Mei Zihan said indifferently, "If it doesn't work, I'll take a rest first."
"I have an audition here. The crew wants a second male lead. You can try it." Wang Xiaoman hesitated for a while, but said it out.
"The other party is a member of CCTV and wants to make a military-themed film, but because this film needs to be shot on location, plus some closed shooting, it is estimated that it will take three to four months to stay on the set and not go out. Many actors of the right age don’t have a schedule, and they don’t want to waste such a long time filming.”
If it was two years ago, even if it took so much time, there must have been a lot of new-generation male actors to shoot. The themes of dramas can improve one's style and status, and can also brush up the nationality. However, in the past two years, with the proliferation of anti-war dramas, there have been many military-themed dramas on the street, and now they have become a tasteless choice.
The director is also very distressed. The male number two he needs should be handsome, handsome and mature, but now the new generation has a more feminine aesthetic. At the age of 30, they also dress themselves as if they were 20 years old, and they are still idols at the age of 40 or 50. Be the hero in the play. Male stars with suitable conditions can't see such a drama at all, and they are afraid that they will not be able to bear the hardship if they find a pure newcomer.
After much deliberation, the only way to hold an audition meeting is for these 18th-tier male actors who have some experience in playing tricks or supporting roles.
Of course, such an audition has nothing to do with actors like Mei Zihan who play Lei dramas.
In particular, Mei Zihan had acted in an anti-war drama before, so he didn't welcome the director.
But Wang Xiaoman still found such an audition opportunity for Mei Zihan.
Because this director used to be Wang Xiaoman's boyfriend.
It's not that Wang Xiaoman hadn't thought about using this ex-boyfriend's relationship to get himself a few better roles, and it was considered compensation for breaking up, after all, the other party cheated first. But this ex-boyfriend has always preferred men's dramas, and his ability to portray female characters is appallingly poor, so he can only be regarded as mediocre.
If it weren't for the fact that the military theme is about to become a "tumor" existence, it wouldn't be the turn of this ex-boyfriend to direct.
"Audition?" Mei Zihan frowned upon hearing these two words, "I'm going to accompany you to run for soy sauce, let's forget it."
"There is no internal decision this time." Wang Xiaoman couldn't laugh or cry, did this kid know how much preparation he had made for this call, and he still didn't want to go
"This director cheated on me when we dated back then, and he gave me the second male lead as compensation. In fact, he intended to give me the second female lead, but as you can see, I have already planned to quit the circle and have children. I will take this role as well." It's useless, so I'll just give it to you." Wang Xiaoman took a deep look at Mei Zihan, "You are only allowed to succeed, not to fail, you know?"
"Know."
Being stared at by Wang Xiaoman, Mei Zihan reflexively agreed.
"It's good to know, anyway, you can't take advantage of other people." Wang Xiaoman said with a smile, "If you can perform well, you may be able to change a group of crews. Don't you want to be a middle-aged handsome uncle? , you can learn from others.”
Mei Zihan was deeply moved. He knew how domineering Wang Xiaoman was, but once she took you under her wing, she would treat you with care and affection.
It is precisely because of this that the brother-in-law has remained infatuated with Wang Xiaoman for many years.
Because he knows that what he gets will be the best partner.
"Sister Xiaoman, I will work hard."
"It's the best if you can climb up." A trace of disappointment flashed across Wang Xiaoman's face, but it was quickly replaced by another kind of happiness.
"When your "Sniper" is finished, you can come and meet your goddaughter." At this point, Wang Xiaoman paused again, "Of course, you can also bring your boyfriend here."
