Keban is a famous actor in Country M. He has been in the industry for more than ten years and is already 34 years old this year. However, because he takes good care of himself, he looks much younger than his actual age. Seven years ago, he had won the Best Actor award at the "Phone" awards, but ever since Ling Yingyue appeared, in the past five years, Ling Yingyue has almost monopolized the Best Actor award at the "Phone" awards every year.
At the beginning, Keban was unwilling to accept losing to a Chinese, so he kept working hard. However, he soon found out that his actions were in vain, because Ling Yingluo still won the Best Actor award at "Finos" in the second year, and then the third year, fourth year, and fifth year.
From the initial reluctance to the final habit, Keban knew that as long as Ling Yingyue was there, it would be impossible for him to take the title of "Finos" away from him. Since I can't take away the Best Actor award, I'll just take the Best Supporting Actor award. It's better than being a runner-up every year.
So, when Cobain learned that director Chelsea was going to start filming his last movie, "The Elves and the Prince," he knew his chance had come. As early as three years ago, Cobban had read the script of "The Elf Prince". The script was very well written and each character in it had its own characteristics. The male protagonist is very smart and upright, the female protagonist is also beautiful and shrewd, and the first male supporting role is a very decisive character.
The most memorable character should be the soul character in the script, the Elf Prince. In order to defeat the devil, the male protagonist and others have to go to the Elf Forest to ask for help from the Elf Prince. The Elf Prince is a very perfect character. I think he should be the kind of character that countless men and women admire.
In Cobain's opinion, as long as he is allowed to play the role of the elf prince, he will definitely be able to win the Best Supporting Actor award for "Finos" with this role. Of course, it couldn't be this year's, because there was still a month left before this year's "Finos" awards ceremony, which meant that he would not be able to make it to this year's awards ceremony. According to past practice, this year's "Finos" Best Actor award will probably go to Ling Yinglu again.
No matter what, Keban was very confident in himself this time, because in his opinion, among all the actors who auditioned, he seemed to be the only one who was more suitable. And he also saw affirmation in Director Chelsea's eyes. I think this role belongs to him, there is no way around it.
When Cobain was about to complete all the notices in advance and make time to shoot "The Prince of Elves", his agent walked in with a sullen look on his face.
"Koban, I have something to tell you."
"What's wrong?" It was rare to see his agent look so serious, so Keban asked in a teasing tone, "Is your wife not letting you sleep in the house again?"
"No." The agent looked at Cobain deeply and said, "The list of actors for "The Elf Prince" has been confirmed."
"Oh, so soon? Didn't you say we have an audition this afternoon? It's only 4:30 this afternoon, it shouldn't be over yet." Then he remembered something and laughed, "Haha, it must be because the acting skills of those auditioning candidates are not that good. Director Chelsea has already made up her mind, so she gave up the other auditions. This is the most correct choice. Come on, I'll buy you a drink to celebrate that I got the role of the Elf Prince."
Koban put a hand on his agent's shoulder and laughed.
After hearing what Keban said, the agent's face darkened, and then he looked at Keban seriously, "Keban, you are wrong. The actor selected for the role of the Elf Prince is not you, but an actor from China."
Coban's face froze, "Abby, what are you talking about? Did you make a mistake?"
"That's right, the names have been announced. I have personally confirmed it with Director Chelsea. Look, the cast list has been announced on the official Weibo of "The Elf Prince." The agent took out his mobile phone and flipped through the cast list recently released on the official Weibo of "The Elf Prince."
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Director Chelsea has clearly approved of me, so how could she suddenly choose someone else? And a Chinese actor?" Keban couldn't believe it and snatched Chelsea's phone. When he saw the name on it clearly, he wanted to destroy the name in the phone.
"Ouyang Qianran? A Chinese actor? Damn it, Abby, check this person for me right now. I want to know all his information. He actually dared to steal my role. I think he is tired of living." Veins bulged on Koban's forehead, and he gritted his teeth and shouted at the agent beside him.
As a world-renowned director, Chelsea certainly has many fans. In addition, with the recent auditions, many of the world's top artists have come to audition, so fans from all over the world are eagerly following the Weibo of "The Elf Prince", wanting to see if their idols are on the list.
All of Koban’s fans know that their idol auditioned for the role of the Elf Prince. They all have great confidence in their idol. In their opinion, Keban will be able to get the role easily. After all, Keban is a top-tier artist ranked 10th in the world artist rankings.
However, when the list of "Elf Prince" was announced, Cobain's fans were furious.
"What's going on? Why wasn't the professional actor selected? What's up with this Chinese actor who suddenly appeared?"
"Oh my god, Keban wasn't selected? The one who was selected is a Chinese actor?"
"What kind of magic does this Chinese actor have? How did he defeat our professional actors? No, there must be some shady plot here."
"That's right. Our class is the best. Why weren't we selected? Has Director Chelsea also fallen?"
"God, I can't believe this, it can't be true."
"Ouyang Qianran? Your Highness? Oh my God, he actually beat Keban and got the role of the Elf Prince? I remember that Your Highness was the 199th ranked artist, right? He actually beat Keban who was ranked 10th? It's incredible."
"Protest, there must be a deal that cannot be seen by others. I remember this Chinese actor was the son of a large group. He must have bribed Director Chelsea with money. That must be the case."
"Poor Cobain, why are you so pitiful? Don't be sad for losing to such a despicable person. God will definitely punish him."
…
"What? Koban was not selected?" Elaine, the actor who played the leading role and ranked 5th in the world artist rankings, who was originally enjoying a delicious dinner, was so shocked that her hand holding the red wine glass was shaking. He looked at the assistant beside him in disbelief, "If Keban wasn't selected, then who was selected?"
The female assistant looked at Elaine's handsome face and said with some obsession: "He is an actor from China. His name is Ouyang Qianran, and he is a newcomer who just made the list this year." Elaine is so charming, with her charming natural flaxen-colored neat short hair, her deep and prominent facial features, and her gentle and charming temperament. She is indeed worthy of being a super artist ranked among the top five in the world. The scent of Kermon is emanating at every moment.
Elaine was already used to her female assistant's infatuated look, so she chose to ignore it. However, the name mentioned by the female assistant just now made him narrow his eyes slightly.
"Ouyang Qianran?" The name was familiar. Elaine remembered that this Chinese man had not appeared on the world rankings the year before. But when the list was announced this year, he suddenly entered the top 200, which caused quite a stir at the time. So Elaine remembered the name.
What Elaine didn't expect was that he was able to snatch the role of supporting actor from Cobain. Did he conquer Chelsea with his acting skills, or was there another hidden secret?
China.
Fans of Ouyang Qianran, who have been quite active recently, have been constantly jumping around on the Internet because their idol has entered the top 200 in the world rankings. Not long after this shocking news came, another piece of news came like a bomb.
"Oh my god, guys, I have some earth-shattering good news for you all. Your Highness has been selected for the cast of the internationally renowned director, Chelsea's final film, 'The Elf Prince'. Your Highness is going to beat Coban, who is ranked 10th in the world, to play the Elf Prince in the movie."
"The people above are a step late. We already knew about this news a long time ago. The Second Young Master is really amazing. It seems that he has been grabbing all the headlines recently."
"It's simply thunder and lightning, Second Young Master. Wherever you go, you make a fuss. You actually defeated Keban, who was ranked tenth, and snatched the role of the Elf Prince from him. I admire you so much."
"What's the point of a professional training? I think our prince's target is Master Ling. Second Master, I support you. Go and conquer him. I really want to see the day when Master Ling is conquered by Second Master and kneels under his suit pants."
"The idea above is really great. Just thinking about the scene is exciting. Come on, Your Highness..."
"Your Highness, come on, Emperor Ling is still waiting for you to conquer him!"
"I am a young man who never watches foreign movies. For my second son, I decided to watch "The Prince of Elves". Please work hard, second son!"
…
Ling Yingluo, who was filming in Country F, had just finished shooting a scene and was sitting aside to take a rest. Suddenly, two young extras held their mobile phones and started discussing excitedly.
"Wow... It's His Highness. His Highness actually beat Coban. Is he going to play the role of the Elf Prince? I'm so looking forward to it..."
"I remember that Your Highness also took a photo of the Elf Prince once, but it seemed to be the cover of a magazine. What was the name of the magazine?"
"Fashion Empire, I was attracted by the elf-like prince on the cover of the magazine, and that’s why I fell in love with Er Shao. I didn’t expect that Er Shao would play the elf prince again, and he’s still alive. I’m so looking forward to it!"
"That's right, I really want to see the whole movie as soon as possible."
…
Ling Yingluo, who was drinking water, paused, then drank all the warm water in the cup in his hand. Finally, he looked at the empty cup with a faint smile in his eyes.
