Seeing Li Xin, Yue Guan blinked.
He took out his mobile phone, looked at it, and then asked with a smile: "Why didn't you tell me when you came to the interview? Maybe I will give you a back door."
He knew Li Xin.
When filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Li Xin played Guo Fu.
The role is actually that of the second female lead.
It's a pity that the cast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is full of beauties, and there are many female stars who are higher-ranking and more popular than her.
In addition, Guo Fu's character is not likeable.
Therefore, Li Xin did not become a fire, but became cannon fodder.
Yang Guo and Guo Fu have many scenes opposite each other, so Yue Guan and Li Xin are not strangers either.
However, Yue Guan and her have not collaborated since "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
There was no shortage of beautiful female celebrities around Yue Guan, but Li Xin was not outstanding enough in terms of appearance or acting skills to make Yue Guan never forget her. As a result, the contact between the two gradually broke off, but they still have contact information.
It's just that Li Xin hasn't made any splash in the past few years, so when choosing actors for Yue Guan's drama, she wasn't much thought of.
Seriously speaking, this was the first time the two met after filming "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Although the two were quite familiar with each other during the filming, the gap in status became wider and wider, so Li Xin naturally would not really regard Yue Guan as a good friend like he did at the beginning.
So she restrained herself and said, "Mr. Yue is busy, so I won't disturb you. Besides, you always only choose suitable actors. When I interviewed Guo Fu last time, it was the first time we met, and you and Director Zhang made the decision directly." I."
Zhang Li also recognized Li Xin.
He had also seen Yue Guan's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", so it was not surprising that he knew Yue Guan and Li Xin.
He could also tell that the relationship between the two was not too close.
Even Yue Guan didn't know that Li Xinlai was auditioning.
He looked at Li Xin's information.
Having grown up in primary school dramas, the acting and vocals should be okay, but in fact they are not too amazing.
In the entertainment industry, he is a slightly better talent, but for him, it is actually not a particularly good choice.
However, previous female stars were too crooked, so Zhang Li was still looking forward to Li Xin.
"Try acting." Zhang Li said: "Your previous acting skills were quite impressive. I hope you can impress us this time too."
Queen Wang, the daughter of an aristocratic family, is a tragic character because she was never Li Zhi's favorite from beginning to end.
At first, Li Zhi doted on Concubine Xiao Shu and married Empress Wang. It was just a political marriage.
The Wang family is a famous family, and Queen Wang's status would not be threatened under normal circumstances, but Li Zhi's neglect made Queen Wang unwilling to endure it.
In order to make Concubine Xiao Shu fall out of favor, Queen Wang took the initiative to contact Wu Zetian, who was still a monk in Ganye Temple, and then took the initiative to bring Wu Zetian and Li Zhi back together.
Yes, the main palace took the initiative to find Wu Zetian, the mistress, for Li Zhi in an attempt to fight against Xiao Shufei, the mistress.
She succeeded, and with Wu Zetian's help, Concubine Xiao Shu quickly fell out of favor.
Then she followed.
Driving the tiger to devour the wolf, she actually swallowed the wolf, and then the tiger also swallowed her in one bite.
Therefore, the role of Queen Wang actually has little to do with the graceful and majestic mother who governs the world. On the contrary, it is good to be a bit bitter.
Li Xin... I really feel like this.
Compared with those who failed in the previous audition, Zhang Li is the most satisfied with Li Xin's performance so far.
He looked at Yue Guan: "Yue Guan, what do you think?"
Yue Guan quickly calculated and said after careful consideration: "Queen Wang is not a typical queen."
Zhang Li nodded: "Yes, many female celebrities in the past acted with the attitude of being a mother to the world, and did not understand the script at all."
Yue Caring said, don't talk about those actresses. In the last chapter, many book friends asked the Queen to be a mother to the world.
A queen who went to Xiaosi to help her deal with her mistress, and a queen who was tricked to death by Xiaosi...
Just be a little noble, don't expect her to have a great aura.
He was originally a cannon fodder in the vanguard of the king.
Not all queens are graceful and luxurious. There are many types of emperors. There are wise emperors and there are trash. Of course, there cannot be only one type of queen.
From this point of view, the historical literacy of some shady book friends and female celebrities in the entertainment industry is not much different, so don’t criticize them all day long. You are just a half-full bucket of water**.
Finished complaining, let’s get back to business.
Yue Guan looked at Li Xin: "Actually, she acted well. Queen Wang is a woman without great wisdom, but only a little smart. First she was jealous that Concubine Xiao Shu was the only one favored by Li Zhi, and then she went to the doctor to seek help from Wu Zetian because of her illness. His mother, Mrs. Liu, asked Wu Zhu to curse Wu Zetian with the "Spell of Weary of Victory". In fact, as the queen, it is best to do nothing and take one wrong step. Currently, Li Xin is the best among all actresses. , the only person who really understood the script, basically expressed the queen in the script."
Yue Guan and Zhang Li had similar views.
"I think so too. Although it's not too surprising, it has met my requirements, otherwise it would be her." Zhang Lidao.
Yue Guan hesitated for a moment, then said to Zhang Li: "Let's look at the performance of other actresses. Maybe there are better ones."
Li Xin's performance is actually good, but only good.
No matter how good it is, it's not necessarily true.
Yue Guan is not prepared to favor anyone this time, and will let whichever actress performs the role well.
There are many people waiting behind.
There is no need to reject someone without even meeting them.
Since Yue Guan said this, Zhang Li had no objection. He said to Li Xin: "Miss Li, please go back and wait for the news. The crew will inform you of the result within two days."
Li Xin did not hear the conversation between Yue Guan and Zhang Li just now. When Zhang Li said this, Li Xin was a little disappointed.
She knows Yue Guan's habits.
Generally, as long as Yue Guan is interested in an actor, he will make a decision on the spot.
This is how she got her Guofu.
Now that Zhang Li said this, it was basically a death sentence for her.
Despite this, Li Xin did not change her face. She was not stupid, so she nodded: "Thank you, director, thank you, Teacher Yue."
Seeing that Li Xin was a little disappointed, Yue Guan suddenly asked: "Qinqin, actually, even if the role of Queen Wang is played well, it will be difficult to become popular. The character is not lovable."
Li Xin nodded: "I know, but actors can't choose roles, especially in this kind of serious drama. If you perform well, your acting skills will definitely be greatly improved. I am willing to act even if the audience scolds me."
Zhang Li was somewhat appreciative.
Yue Guan smiled and naturally took the credit on himself: "It's good if you have this awareness. Just go back and wait for the call. I will let you know whether it works or not."
Li Xin's eyes lit up and she thanked her again: "Thank you, Teacher Yue."
Li Xin naturally thought that Yue Guan was optimistic about him, but Zhang Li was not optimistic about him, so the two sides had differences.
After all, Yue Guan's habit is to decide the role on the spot, and he rarely delays it.
But the actual situation is that Zhang Li wants to see her, and Yue Guan wants to see her again.
But the actual situation doesn't matter.
What the girl thinks is important.
Anyway, Zhang Li didn't care what Li Xin thought of her, so Yue Guanyun calmly blamed him.
After all, if Queen Wang really decides Li's heart, he will use "empathy" later.
We can't let Li Xin resist him now.
Zhang Li didn't realize that Yue Guan had dug a hole for him. After all, it was very obscure, and he was not the roundworm in Li Xin's belly.
After Li Xin left, Zhang Li said to Yue Guan: "This little girl still has the heart to be an actress. She has a respect for dramas. She doesn't choose roles or act for the sake of popularity. She is much better than the current female stars."
Yue Guan smiled.
It would be nonsense to say that Li Xin is not just for the sake of popularity.
All the female stars, including male stars, in the entertainment industry who say they don’t want to be popular are all creating characters.
When you enter the entertainment industry, there is no one who doesn’t want to be famous.
But Li Xin does still have a sense of awe for the main drama, and her requirements for the role are indeed not high, and she is relatively dedicated.
Professional qualities are all measured by comparison. If you look at it this way, Zhang Li's words are not outrageous.
It's just that if you play roles like Guo Fu and Queen Wang too many times, it's really difficult to become popular.
"Director Zhang, what do you think of Li Xin's conditions?"
"It's very good. She's young and beautiful, and her acting skills are also good. She must have a future." Zhang Li said naturally.
Yue Guan shook his head: "On the contrary, I think it is difficult for her to become popular."
"Why?"
"Because she is too average, her beauty is not lost, and her acting skills are neither high nor low. She can play silly and sweet roles, and she can also play beautiful, strong and tragic roles, but she is not the most suitable for these two roles. So. , it’s hard to be popular.”
Yue Guan's comments made Zhang Li think carefully.
Then he had to admit that Yue Guan did have a certain way of looking at female celebrities.
"It seems like this is true. She has been in the entertainment industry for a long time, right?"
"It's not that short. In the same time, the four young beauties have already come into their own."
In the entertainment industry, the words "late bloomer" basically don't exist. It's just basic. There are always fish that slip through the net.
Especially for female celebrities.
You cannot become famous when you are young, and there is no hope when you are older.
Li Xin... is a bit similar to Da Tiantian. I feel like she has acted in a lot of movies, but she is not very popular.
And Yue Guan can be sure that even if the role of Queen Wang is given to her, she will definitely not become popular.
Queen Wang is not a role that can make a female star famous.
This character is far from the distinctive female characters like the Queen, Qin Banruo, Seventh Prince Concubine, and Princess Nihuang in "Game of Thrones".
Therefore, none of Yue Guan's confidante could appreciate the role of Queen Shang.
"It's a pity. I really admire this kind of actress who can work hard to polish her acting skills. The current atmosphere in the entertainment industry is too impetuous, and there are fewer and fewer actors who are willing to polish their basic skills."
"It will get better and better in the future." Yue Guan said with a smile: "The atmosphere has begun to change, Director Zhang, the future is promising."
"Yes, I also feel that the wind direction has begun to change recently, Yue Guan, this is your credit."
"The credit is shared by many people, and I am just a part of promoting changes in this environment. Okay, Director Zhang, let's stop being polite to each other and continue with the interview."
Li Xin and Yue Guan Zhang Li didn't have any special friendship, so they both thought that if there was a more suitable female star in the future, they would use a more suitable one.
The reality disappointed them both.
Although some of the female celebrities interviewed later had greater status and popularity than Li Xin, their interpretation of the script and acting skills were all down a notch.
In the end, Zhang Li helplessly shook his head at Yue Guan: "Just Li Xin, it seems that the role of Queen Wang cannot attract outstanding female stars to compete. If you release Wu Zetian, you will definitely gain a lot of popularity." Little Huadans and even big Huadans are attracted."
Yue Guan also believed this.
However, Wu Zetian and Yang Xue had already agreed that a man should have a beginning and an end.
Moreover, Yang Xue is good at portraying characters like Wu Zetian, so it is suitable for her to play in all aspects.
So, there is no need to bother with this.
"Then let's take Li Xin. I'll contact her. Some of the later roles with relatively small roles will be handed over to the casting director, Director Zhang. You can put more effort into setting up the crew and just use your old team."
"No problem, leave it to me."
Zhang Li is very familiar with this aspect.
This is the convenience of working with a big director, it can save a lot of things.
Of course, their prices aren't cheap either.
But you get what you pay for.
Anyway, Yueguan is not short of money.
After today's audition, Yue Guan took out his mobile phone and called Li Xin.
"Want to hear good news or bad news?" Yue Guan hesitated.
"I see you."
Li Xin's words confused Yue Guan.
At this time, he had just left the building where the audition was held and walked out.
Li Xin hasn’t left yet
"Look ahead, I'm over here in the cafe, by the window."
Yue Guan looked over.
He found Li Xin waving to him.
Yue Guan was a little surprised, hung up the phone and walked into the coffee shop.
"Why haven't you left yet?"
"Waiting for you." Li Xin said very naturally: "Director Zhang asked me to go back and wait. I thought there was no hope, but you gave me a hint later, and I knew that you should still be optimistic about me, so I said more Wait a minute, I guess you’ll call me.”
Yue Guan: "...You are really smart as ice and snow."
Li Xin was a little embarrassed: "No, you made it so obvious. I would be stupid if I couldn't guess it."
Yue Guan sighed softly in his heart.
I didn't say anything.
I won’t take the blame for this.
However, credit must be taken.
"Congratulations, the role of Queen Wang is yours."
Li Xin was overjoyed: "Really? Yue Guan, thank you. I know Director Zhang must be dissatisfied. You must have spoken for me."
Yue Guan was a little embarrassed and explained: "Actually, no, Director Zhang still admires you very much."
"You don't need to explain. I understand that Director Zhang used to work with old actors. It's normal to look down on young people like me. I will use practical actions to prove to Director Zhang that you are not wrong about the person." Li Xin said seriously.
What can Yue Guan say
All he could say was: "Come on, I'm optimistic about you."
"Thank you, I won't let you down." Li Xin said forcefully.
Yue Guan felt that he had done another good deed inexplicably today.
Passively do one good deed a day.
