Jiangcheng Film City, the opening ceremony of "The Legend of Yunlan"

Wang Ligang specially chose this auspicious day to hold the start-up ceremony. All the actors and staff arrived at the shooting location early in the morning. Du Yuanzhe and other leading actors were pulled into the dressing room to change clothes as soon as they arrived.

Luo Xun's identity is the Demon Lord. His attire is a black robe embroidered with ferocious beasts, symbolizing his identity as the Demon Lord and his extraordinary strength.

After changing his clothes, Du Yuanzhe sat in front of the dressing table and let the makeup artist put on makeup and a wig for him. The wig had to fit his scalp perfectly without any trace of wear.

The process is not pleasant, and it is also very uncomfortable after putting it on. However, Du Yuanzhe will have to wear this thing for a few months and can only try his best to adapt to it.

When everything was ready, Du Yuanzhe stood up and looked at himself in the mirror. His expression became indifferent, without a trace of emotion, as if he didn't care about the people in the world.

Xiaopang praised: "I seem to see Luo Xun walking out of the book."

Liu Xu's eyes became brighter as he watched Du Yuanzhe's changes.

Du Yuanzhe walked out of the dressing room dressed as the Demon Lord Luo Xun. People heard the movement and looked over, and they couldn't help but think of the two words that described Luo Xun in the book.

So majestic!

Look down on everything!

Wang Ligang laughed and said, "Very good, this is the Demon Lord Luo Xun that I want."

Du Yuanzhe said: "As long as the director is satisfied."

As the opening ceremony progressed, Du Yuanzhe came on stage and introduced his role. After all the main creators came on stage one by one, the host said that the media could start interviewing them.

The reporters had been holding back their questions since they saw Du Yuanzhe, and immediately started asking questions after getting permission.

"Director Wang, the Demon Lord Luo Xun is as popular as the male lead in the original novel. What made you choose a lesser-known actor?"

Wang Ligang took the microphone and said: "It seems that you are a newcomer. People who know me know that I only consider the acting skills when selecting actors."

"Director Wang means that Du Yuanzhe's acting skills are good enough to play Luo Xun?"

"nice."

After all, Wang Ligang was a prestigious director in the circle, so the reporters did not dare to be too presumptuous and soon set their sights on Du Yuanzhe.

"You have been in the industry for three years but have remained unknown. This is your first time playing such an important role. I would like to ask if Mr. Xiao Du has called you to encourage you?"

They really know how to set a trap. If he says yes, these media will write that he has resources and got it through the back door.

Du Yuanzhe said: "My brother doesn't pay attention to the entertainment industry. He probably doesn't know about my performance in "The Legend of Yun Lan" yet."

"You didn't tell your family about such a big thing?"

"It's a big deal for me, but for my family, they are more concerned about when I will be home."

"Fans often say that if you don't work harder, you will have to go home and inherit the family business. What do you think about this?"

Du Yuanzhe: "Of course this is a joke. My eldest brother is enough to take care of the family business. I still prefer being an actor."

"Luo Xun is completely different from your previous image. Are you confident that you can play this role well?"

Du Yuanzhe: "I will try my best to play the role of Luo Xun in the book."

No matter what the problem is, just be humble as possible.

The reporter was obviously disappointed.

After the interview, Du Yuanzhe followed the director in burning incense and worshipping. Finally, he watched the director lift the red cloth covering the camera, and the start-up ceremony was completely over.

At this time, the Internet was full of discussions about the opening ceremony of "Legend of Yun Lan", especially after learning that Du Yuanzhe would play Luo Xun, it caused a huge sensation.

After the official Weibo account announced the roles, this discussion was pushed to its climax.

"Is Wang Ligang crazy to choose Du Yuanzhe to play Luo Xun? How is he like Luo Xun?"

"I'm going to throw up. I've read the original novel of "Legend of Yunlan" no less than ten times. I've been looking forward to it since I heard about the adaptation. I thought the casting of the male and female protagonists was pretty reliable, but Luo Xun chose such a jerk. I can understand Qianying Entertainment wanting to promote someone, but why did they have to destroy my Luo Xun!!!"

"Du Yuanzhe? Isn't he the second son of the Du family? His acting is so bad that I can't stand watching him. I used to think he was self-aware and never played a major role. It turns out he is holding back on his big move. Can't the eldest son just enjoy his life? Why does he have to come out and act to torture us?"

"Bullshit Wang Ligang, bullshit Qianying Entertainment, "Legend of Yunlan" is such a good IP, it can make a lot of money with a little effort, but you guys insist on feeding shit"

"In fact, from the stills I saw, I felt that Du Yuanzhe was quite similar to Luo Xun, especially that arrogant look in his eyes that killed me."

"......"

As expected, Du Yuanzhe was badly scolded. Under the official Weibo post, comments scolding Du Yuanzhe piled up like a tower.

Du Yuanzhe debuted for three years and this is the first time he has caused such a huge sensation. Even the male and female protagonists cannot compare to him, although he was scolded for it.

After Wang Ligang learned about the online incident, he came over to comfort her, saying, "Don't pay attention to those comments. They are just a bunch of people with nothing to do but talk nonsense online. Can they be as good as me in casting?"

Yang Shiyao smiled and said, "The more you scold me now, the bigger the backlash will be when the show airs. Yuanzhe, you are going to be famous."

Du Yuanzhe also laughed when he heard this: "Sister Shiyao is still good at comforting people."

Zheng Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Netizens are like this. They make random comments without knowing the whole story. Being a celebrity always involves going through this."

Du Yuanzhe: "Thank you for your concern. I am not that fragile."

The crew had already rented a venue, and each day's rent was charged per day. Wang Ligang immediately announced that filming would begin soon.

The first scene is about the heroine becoming a disciple of the Tianjian Sect.

While waiting for the show, Du Yuanzhe took out his mobile phone and opened Weibo, and found that the Weibo post he had posted earlier had been attacked by netizens, who were cursing him madly, and 80% of them were fans of the original novel.

Liu Xu advised: "Don't look at it, it will make you upset."

Du Yuanzhe didn't want to be tortured, so he turned off his phone and looked through the script.

"By the way, Brother Liu, I don't think I'll be free today. Can you help me check out this gym? If it's suitable, I'll go there to exercise for an hour every day."

Du Yuanzhe handed the business card Xia Ningmi gave him to Liu Xu.

Liu Xu nodded: "Okay, I'll go. Xiaopang, take good care of Yuanzhe."

"Don't worry, Brother Liu."

After the filming officially started, there was actually very little free time as everyone had their own things to do. The second scene was Du Yuanzhe's turn, and he was acting opposite Zheng Xiao.

After the heroine reveals Luo Xun's identity, the Tianjian Sect sends the hero to hunt down Luo Xun.

In the dense forest

Luo Xunsi was not afraid of Qingyang Zhenren at all. He landed on the top of the tree with his toes lightly, his black robe fluttering in the wind. He said sarcastically, "Who would have thought that Qingyang Zhenren, who is so glorious and bright in the Tianjian Sect, is a filthy villain who covets his own disciple? What do you think about me telling everyone about this?"

True Man Qingyang Yu Jian came in front of Luo Xun and without saying a word he drew his sword with a cold and intimidating light.

"It seems that you are angry because of shame. Yun Lan trusts you so much, but you have evil thoughts towards her. How can you be worthy of her?"

Master Qingyang frowned, and his originally smooth sword moves became a little messy.

"Card!"

Du Yuanzhe and Zheng Xiao stopped at the same time, still hanging in the air by the wire.

Wang Ligang said loudly: "Zheng Xiao, your reaction is too big. Qingyang Zhenren is emotionally indifferent. Even if he is really upset, he will not show it on his face."

Zheng Xiao nodded: "I understand."

Wang Ligang put on his headphones and said, "Let's start!"

The two continued to act. Luo Xun, played by Du Yuanzhe, kept provoking Qingyang Zhenren with words, trying to find his weakness so as to kill him in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, Qingyang Zhenren was too calm and he never found the opportunity.

Finally, Luo Xun was worried that the Heaven Sword Sect would come to help, so he had to give up this plan. Before leaving, he looked at Master Qingyang and said ruthlessly: "You'd better put away your dirty thoughts. If I find out that you have crossed the line, I will massacre an entire city of your Heaven Sword Sect. Didn't you claim to protect all living beings in the world? Then don't let people die because of you."

After saying this, Luo Xun disappeared in front of Master Qingyang.

"Card!"

Wang Ligang took off his headphones and praised, "Very good, especially Yuanzhe. It seems that you have really studied Luo Xun thoroughly. You acted out every emotion very well."

Du Yuanzhe was lowered down little by little, and the staff immediately helped him take off the wire.

"As long as I don't disappoint Director Wang."

"Haha, I'm surprised."

Xiaopang immediately brought a cup of water: "Brother Zhe, drink some more water to moisten your throat."

Zheng Xiao also untied the wire and walked aside to let the makeup artist touch up his makeup.

The assistant whispered, "Brother Xiao, is Du Yuanzhe trying to steal your limelight on purpose?"

Zheng Xiao frowned: "Director Wang can't tolerate any sand in his eyes, don't think about these nonsense."

In fact, he was not happy about it, but he knew how to weigh the pros and cons. He was the leading actor and could attract countless fans as long as he acted well. He could not create trouble at this time.

After this play, Du Yuanzhe's next play would not start until the evening. While waiting for the play, Liu Xu came back.

"Yuanzhe, the gym you found is very suitable. They specialize in serving celebrities and have excellent confidentiality."

There are many celebrities visiting Jiangcheng Film and Television City every day, and this gym was opened nearby just to cater to the celebrities' business.

Du Yuanzhe smiled and said, "As long as it's suitable, I will go there to work out in the future."

As expected of someone who runs an entertainment company, Xia Ningmi has extensive connections.

Yancheng, Jincheng Garden

In the evening, Xia Ningmi returned home and was stunned by the dark living room.

When Du Yuanzhe was here, he would always turn on the light in the living room. Every time Xia Ningmi came back and saw the light on, she inexplicably felt like someone was waiting for her to come home.

Today, the lights are out.

Xia Ningmi couldn't help but frown, turned on the light in the living room, turned it off after a while, and went straight back to the room.

Throwing her bag on the bed, Xia Ning went into the bathroom to take a shower. But when she came out of the shower, she didn't feel refreshed at all. Instead, she felt even more irritated.

She picked up her phone, unlocked it and opened WeChat, but found that she had not added Du Yuanzhe on WeChat.

They had been living together before, and would call each other directly when there was something, and had never communicated through WeChat.

On the other side, Du Yuanzhe, who had just finished filming, received a call from Xia Ningmi on his way back to the hotel.

The other party just said "Add me on WeChat" and hung up the phone.

Seeing him in a daze, Liu Xu asked, "What's wrong?"

Du Yuanzhe shook his head, opened WeChat and searched for Xia Ningmi according to her mobile phone number. Her WeChat profile picture was still the original one, which looked like a fake account.

The WeChat name is shockingly simple, with only one black dot.

Du Yuanzhe found it hard to imagine that she was using this WeChat to discuss business cooperation with those bigwigs. When they wanted to find her, they might have to look for her several times. This kind of avatar would always make people subconsciously ignore it.

Du Yuanzhe clicked to add a friend, and the other party agreed the next second.

Du Yuanzhe looked at the dialogue box that appeared in the list and changed the note for Xia Ningmo - President Xia.

After all, he is the boss of the company, so the necessary respect is still required.

Mr. Xia: "Play games with me"

Du Yuanzhe's expression froze.

What should I do if my boss becomes a game addict?

Du Yuanzhe thought for a moment and replied, "I'm on my way back to the hotel now. I'll call you when I get there."

President Xia: “Okay.”

Du Yuanzhe: "I have to get up early tomorrow to film, so I can only play for half an hour at most."

President Xia: "Okay."

Xia Ningmi looked at the dialogue box between the two, pondered for a long time, and changed his note to Du Yuanzhe.

The author has something to say:

I will be v-ing tomorrow, and will update 50,000 words on the same day, at midnight and 12 noon respectively~
