The cast of "Der Spiegel" has been decided, but there is another female character in "The Pretender" who is also very important.
That is "Wang Manchun", the director of the Intelligence Division of the Secret Service Headquarters of the Wang Puppet Government.
This secret service headquarters is located at No. 76, Jisfield Road. The number 76 we usually refer to refers to this secret service agency.
Wang Manchun is the sister and ex-girlfriend of Master Minglou, the second eldest son of the Ming family. She has always loved Minglou.
But at the same time, she was cruel and ruthless. Even though she admired Minglou, she never showed mercy to the Ming family.
Even when the male protagonist Mingtai was arrested, Wang Manchun used pliers to pluck out the nails of Mingtai's ten fingers.
It can be said that this is a woman who is both beautiful and cruel, a true femme fatale.
This character not only needs to show the beautiful side, but also needs to show the coldness of the heart without showing madness.
This character is always calm. Faced with the gentleness of Ming Lou and the cruelty of the Ming family, the contrast is strong, so there are also requirements for acting skills.
Fang Xing read more than a dozen resumes of actors recommended by major film and television companies, but he was not very satisfied.
Naturally, it is difficult to choose an actor for this role.
Part of the reason is that the actress needs to be a beautiful woman with flaming red lips.
In the film and television industry, there are many beautiful female stars, but this type of actors usually rely on their looks to be successful in film and television dramas when they are young, and rarely can they hone their acting skills.
The few beautiful actresses who hone their acting skills usually do not remain unknown.
If you are a popular actress with acting skills, you can certainly play "Wang Manchun", but the problem is that actresses of this status usually do not consider playing a villain, or Wang Manchun's spy leader in a spy drama.
When a popular actress is concerned, playing such a role will lower the audience's favorability.
Therefore, the crew was stuck in casting "Wang Manchun".
Fang Xing even wanted to ask Yan Lan if he was willing to act.
But when I thought that Yan Lan had a military background and was not suitable for this role, I had to forget it.
Fang Xing had no choice but to expand the scope of the audition and remove some unimportant requirements, leaving only two requirements, beauty and acting skills.
The age is directly relaxed to 35 years old.
After the age limit is relaxed, the range of options becomes much wider.
All that's left is to wait for news from the Screen Actors Guild.
…
After several days of auditions, Fang Xing felt a little tired, so he stayed at home to rest for a day and follow the script.
The first draft of the script has been handed over to Zhang Yigao, who started rehearsing the shots and framing.
At night.
Lu Xiang'er came over wrapped in an extra-long down jacket that reached almost to her ankles, and she also wrapped herself in it when she entered the door.
Fang Xing frowned and said, "It's not that cold today, right? You are exaggerating."
Lu Xiang'er pursed her lips and said, "You are not allowed to laugh later."
Fang Xing became even more surprised. He took a sip of water from the water glass and said, "I have a high point of laughter."
Lu Xiang'er reached out and slowly unzipped the down jacket, revealing the smooth fabric inside, which looked like satin.
When he took off his down jacket, Fang Xing's eyes widened and the water in his mouth almost spurted out.
Lu Xiang'er was wearing a cheongsam. The colorful cheongsam was hooped around her body, highlighting her exquisite figure.
I have to say, this outfit is really alluring.
Seeing her outfit, Fang Xing knew that she was trying on "Yu Manli's" outfit.
In "The Pretender", Yu Manli is a military agent. She often appears in some karaoke bars, dance halls and cocktail parties with this image of a beautiful woman.
Therefore, dressing up in cheongsam is very important.
If the cheongsam is not suitable, it will be difficult to play this role well.
The style of cheongsam is a great test for a woman’s figure.
As long as you put it on, all the advantages and disadvantages of your body will be exposed.
Therefore, if you want to wear a cheongsam, you need to have an almost perfect figure, without any extra fat, and the places that should be convex must be convex, and the places that should be concave must be concave. If any part is not perfect, the overall beauty will be lost.
Fang Xing chuckled, walked over and hugged her waist, and said with a wicked smile, "You are testing me."
Lu Xiang'er snorted and knocked off Fang Xing's dirty hand: "Do you think this is okay? What I'm talking about is, does it fit Yu Manli's image?"
"Of course, it's ridiculously good. But when you walk, you have to be graceful, graceful, you know?" Fang Xing chuckled, his saliva almost dripping from his mouth.
Lu Xiang'er pouted and hummed: "What about the results of my audition? When will it come out?"
When Fang Xing heard this question, he pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you planning to use a honey trap against the director?"
"I didn't." Lu Xiang'er insisted that she was not opportunistic.
"The crew is still interviewing actors, and they haven't completely decided yet. If there is a more suitable one..."
Fang Xing changed the subject and asked, "Are you planning to give up the violin and concentrate on acting?"
Lu Xiang'er immediately shook his head: "No, of course I still focus on the violin."
"Then you are still so keen on acting?" Fang Xing asked curiously.
"I'm not keen on acting, I just want to have different experiences with you. If you don't want to act, I won't act either." Lu Xiang'er corrected.
After a pause, she added: "Actually, in peaceful times, people will not experience so much in their life, but I still hope to have a different life experience, which will also have an impact on my mood when playing the violin.
.
"Oh! You men don't understand. Girls actually want to have more experiences with the people they like.
"When you get old, you can sit in a rocking chair, look through thick photo albums, and recall the things you have experienced in the past. Don't you think that would be wonderful?"
In fact, it's not that Fang Xing doesn't understand. After all, he has had two life experiences and has much more understanding of life than others.
The thinking of men and women is indeed very different.
A woman can hold on to a relationship for a lifetime and feel satisfied and happy about it.
Relatively speaking, what men want is not that simple.
For men, the desire for power will be placed on the same level as feelings, or even higher than feelings.
Fang Xing could clearly feel it when he went out to play with Lu Xiang'er before.
Usually when taking pictures, Fang Xing prefers to use the lens to record the scenery. When taking pictures, even if he is taking a selfie, he will leave enough space for the scenery.
Lu Xiang'er is different. She likes to photograph the interaction between two people.
In order to capture the way Fang Xing looked at her, she was asked to repeat an action many times.
So, go out and have some fun.
When I came back to sort out the photos, it was easy to tell who took which photo.
The blue sky, white clouds, green mountains and green water were all taken by Fang Xing.
Most of the photos of two people interacting in the same frame were taken by Lu Xianger.
For women, the things they have experienced together are the most memorable.
Of course, this has a premise, that is, the person experiencing it with her is the person in her heart.
…
Lu Xiang'er saw Fang Xing's entranced expression and sighed, "Is it because my audition result was not good?"
"No more." Fang Xing replied casually, not paying much attention to her tone.
"Am I not very talented in acting?" Lu Xiang'er pursed her lips, feeling a little depressed.
Fang Xing shook his head and said, "That's not true. In fact, your talent is quite good. You can perform like that for the first time in "The Beginning", which is already very good."
In this world, there is indeed a kind of person who is a born actor. As long as he stands in front of the camera, there is drama in his eyes.
For example, Huang Bo on Earth did not come from a major, and it was his first time filming a movie, and he acted in "Get in the Car, Let's Go." Because he did not have a major, he often made paintings, and went to a position where the camera could not capture him.
However, when he stood in front of the camera, his performance was just right, no matter how he acted.
The same goes for Jacky Cheung, an actor whose acting career was delayed by singing.
actually.
Acting is sometimes very unfair.
Some people are just born to stand in front of the camera and make the audience feel less embarrassed.
Some celebrities, no matter how good-looking they are, just look awkward in photos.
Lu Xiang'er is very lucky. Although her performance can be seen to be very immature, she is not embarrassed when standing in front of the camera.
Otherwise, the heroine who starred in "The Beginning" for the first time can still handle it. If she has no talent at all, it is impossible.
The reason for this may be related to her stage experience.
Often standing on stage to perform and getting used to the camera will really help your performance.
At least when she was filming for the first time, she could ignore the presence of the camera and concentrate on the scene.
"Am I talented?" Lu Xiang'er was a little unsure.
"Just so-so." Fang Xing did not praise her, fearing that she would be too proud.
"Then did I pass the audition?" Lu Xiang'er couldn't let go of this matter in her heart and refused to give up even if she didn't know the answer.
"There are fight scenes in the play, and I hope to use as few stand-ins as possible, so many of the fight scenes have to be done by the actors themselves, so it will be harder. Are you sure you want to join the cast?" Fang Xing reached out and gently lifted her chin.
.
"Look at my fingers. Do you think I am someone who is afraid of hard work?" Lu Xiang'er raised her left hand. There were many calluses on her fingers.
This is the cocoon of playing the violin, which fades and grows, grows and fades again.
Playing the violin is really hard, and my fingers would even get skinned when I was a kid.
"There is still a month before the start of filming. If you really want to act, I will find an acting teacher to give you lessons. If you can meet my requirements before the start of filming, I will allow you to join the group." Fang Xing thought for a moment and felt
Arrange acting lessons for her.
Lu Xiang'er's eyes suddenly lit up and she nodded seriously: "Okay, I will definitely study hard."
In fact.
This semester, she often takes acting classes in the music and theater performance major.
Otherwise, she would not be able to reach that level when she auditioned for "Yu Manli".
In fact, during the audition that day, Fang Xing was a little surprised by Lu Xiang'er's performance.
Although her performance as "Cheng Jinyun" was mediocre after the role exchange, she was not suppressed when she played "Yu Manli" opposite Lin Yingxue.
This performance actually exceeded Fang Xing's initial expectations.
Fang Xing's original idea was that during the audition, she would be crushed by the opposite actor, and then she would give up automatically.
As a result, she played the role of "Yu Manli" opposite Lin Yingxue, and her performance was unexpectedly good.
Especially her jealousy and coquettishness are very endearing.
This kind of performance is exactly the kind of performance that the audience won't find embarrassing after watching it, and it's even a bit likeable.
…
After the audition that day, Lu Xiang'er and Lin Yingxue went to the coffee shop of the film and television base to have a drink together. They were photographed by entertainment reporters and even made it into the entertainment news.
However, the entertainment news about the two women did not make much waves.
Because of this news, there are rumors in the industry that Lin Yingxue has won the film contract of "The Pretender".
After Lu Xiang'er saw this gossip news, she was a little worried. Only then did she remember to ask: "By the way, Lin Yingxue and I went to the coffee shop to chat that day and were photographed by reporters. Is it okay?"
Fang Xing smiled and said, "It's not a big problem. If it were me and Lin Yingxue who were photographed, it would be a big deal."
"you dare!"
Lu Xiang'er's eyes widened, her jealousy rising again, and she raised her fist to threaten, as if she had already entered the role of Yu Manli.
After a while, she asked again: "But there are rumors that she has a good relationship with me, and through my relationship, she got a film appointment in "The Pretender". Doesn't that matter?"
"What's the big deal?" Fang Xing didn't care.
If the entertainment industry doesn’t stir up news, how can it attract people’s attention?
This kind of entertainment gossip is really childish.
Lu Xiang'er said angrily: "But I haven't gotten a film contract myself. How can I get a film contract with my connections?"
Fang Xing chuckled, put his arm around her waist, and said with a bad smile, "Do you want to give it a try? Maybe you can succeed?"
"Um?"
Lu Xiang'er's black eyes widened, she poked her chest with her finger, pretending to be angry and said: "Fang Xing, you are getting more and more outrageous now!"
…
the other side.
News that Lin Yingxue participated in the audition for "The Pretender" has spread.
When she attended a brand event, she was caught by reporters asking questions, which basically focused on Fang Xing and "The Pretender".
After all, Lin Yingxue once refused to star in "The Beginning", and then "The Beginning" became a hit.
Everyone in the industry regrets for Lin Yingxue. If she auditions for "The Pretender" this time, will she be dismissed because of her refusal to star in "The Beginning"? This is also a question that entertainment reporters are concerned about.
Reporter: "Yingxue, how is your relationship with Fang Xing? You became famous for playing the role of Guo Furong in "Wulin Gaiden", and Fang Xing can be said to be your sweetheart. But if you refuse to play "The Beginning", will it cause you
Turn against Fang Xing?"
Lin Yingxue actually had no idea, but she always kept a smile on her face: "No, Fang Xing and I have a very good relationship. We didn't work together on "The Beginning" just because of schedule conflicts. Fang Xing didn't allow actors to skip scenes.
So we couldn’t cooperate.”
Reporter: "Did you pass the audition for "The Pretender" this time? Which role did you get?"
Lin Yingxue: "The results haven't come out yet. The crew of "The Pretender" has very strict requirements for actors. As long as there is news, I will share it with everyone as soon as possible."
Reporter: "Someone photographed you and Ms. Lu Xiang'er drinking coffee in a cafe. Are you trying to get into the group through nepotism?"
Lin Yingxue immediately denied it: "Let me tell you an interesting story about this matter. In fact, during the audition, I had two scenes with Miss Lu Xianger. After the audition, we happened to have some free time, so we drank coffee together."
The reporter continued to ask: "So, Fang Xing's new drama this time is the same as "The Beginning", with Lu Xiang'er playing the female lead again, right?"
Lin Yingxue quickly denied: "I don't know about this either. However, when I was auditioning, Miss Lu Xiang'er was also auditioning, and the audition requirements are very high. Obviously the casting of "The Pretender" is not what the outside world thinks."
