Chapter 26



In the holographic world, you can customize other appearances, but in the entertainment industry where popularity is very important, basically no one will do that.

On the one hand, one's own image is the face of the entertainment industry, and on the other hand, the appearance after extensive modification will be inconsistent with the person's expression and movements. In other words, Wei Lan chose to appear in the image of a little panda, which is the same as when she was filming in the director's machine. The "body" is just a tool for playing her voice, and at most can simply manipulate the limbs, which is very inflexible.

But when Wei Lan really appeared in the variety show with this image, the impact it brought to the live audience was unparalleled.

Originally according to the status of the actors, the audience's "ohhhhhh" at this time should have been for the famous director Chen Yuanhang, but now all their attention was completely attracted by Wei Lan.

After all, no matter how famous you are as a director, you are still a human being!

The scene nowadays is like everyone in a work group using ID photos, and suddenly a 2D cartoon head pops up.

As for why Wei Lan chose the red panda...

Imagine you are a Chinese, and you are going to customize an animal shape for yourself. Would you not want to pick the most precious and adorable national treasure?

The comments have gone crazy:

'I never thought I'd see GunGun on a variety show one day! Who is this? He's so good at playing!'

'Brothers, quickly put protection on the public screen! '

'Protect! '

Not only the audience, but also the judges and the other three directors in the director's seat were all stunned when they saw Wei Lan's red panda.

"cough……"

Because the directors were all connected remotely over the internet, host Luman did not expect such a situation in the director's seat. He was stunned for a while before he came to his senses and continued hosting.

"Let's welcome Director Kang Yu, Director Lin Jiayue, Director Chen Yuanhang..." She couldn't help but glance at the script in her hand, and then introduced as if to confirm: "... and Director Wei Lan!"

"Wei Lan? Who is Wei Lan?" Many viewers expressed doubts. Unless a director is at the top of the industry and well-known enough, few people would pay attention to the director's information.

After receiving the director's reminder, Luman smiled calmly: "Okay, let's invite a few directors and their actors to shoot on site. Each director only has 50,000 data streams. I wonder what kind of short film they will shoot."

"While we wait, let us first introduce the directors' famous works."

The lights went out and the world went dark.

When it lights up again, it's a different scene.

A series of wonderful group palace fighting dramas, this is last year's hit TV series "Zi Fang Ji" that the audience is very familiar with.

After a three-minute clip was played, the director's name, Kang Woo, appeared.

Then there is a clip from a youth romance movie, where a man and a woman argue and cry in the rain, and finally kiss each other. This is a clip from a movie directed by Lin Jiayue.

As the Lin Jiayue movie clip disappeared, the grand BGM of "Star Wars" sounded. In the vast space, spaceships and warships were chasing each other, and laser bullets were fired from gun barrels. The scene was obviously very different from the previous two clips.

The audience couldn't help but start a barrage:

'This is not even on the same level.'

'I declare that Director Chen has won the director's seat!'

After Chen Yuanhang's "Star Wars" clip was played, when the vision became dark, the barrage of comments couldn't help but start discussing which movie the red panda director was working on.

As a result, at this moment, the familiar BGM sounded, and the figures of Lu Anning, An Shiyi, Guo Jianglong and others appeared in front of the audience one after another.

"! ! ! It's a sword!"

'My dear, times have changed'

"She's actually the director of this drama! Suddenly I'm not so surprised by her image anymore. I'm just laughing at this hahahaha"

The craze of "Sword IV" is not far away and has not disappeared from the audience's memory. On the contrary, it has been unexpectedly deepened because of Wei Lan's image.

After all the clips were played, the host Luhman returned to the stage. At this time, eight minutes had already passed and the directors' short films had been shot. However, the lights were not on in the directors' seat. They went on to shoot the second eight-minute short film, with 40 minutes of shooting time. Commentaries were played one by one in front of the stage, plus the VCRs and commercials shot by the actors in advance. When they finished shooting and came back, the time could continue.

"Next is our actor's appearance short film, two minutes long, and it still uses our attention collection function. Audiences who are watching with the hologram, please load the attention test plug-in, otherwise your viewing will not be counted in the final score."

The attention test plug-in is a built-in function of the hologram and has no other functions. It mainly detects the user's brain wave activity to provide feedback on the audience's concentration when watching holographic works.

If we were to compare the functionality with the products of Wei Lan's era, it would probably be similar to an eye tracker, except that it quantifies people's attention more intuitively.

Following Luhmann’s announcement, freshly-released short films began to appear before the audience.

There is a trick here, that is, the entrance scene and the eight-minute short film scene that will be shown later use the same one, because there are not many available data streams, so any savings on the scene are better.

The order of playback is also based on the directors’ seats, which is the order drawn by lot at the beginning.

The first one is Kang Yu, he has the most advantage, and the first short film usually attracts the most attention.

Kang Yu's partner is actor Qin Anxiang, who appears in a white robe and dances with a sword in a handsome manner in a peach blossom forest.

Qin Anxiang must have practiced this specially, as his movements in the scene were smooth and flowing, and he would lift up the flower petals with his sword from time to time. Here the director used special effects to let the petals fly along with his sword, which looked magnificent. The scene ended with a clip.

"So beautiful!" "As expected of a costume drama master!"

The comprehensive attention score came out immediately - 93 points, out of a total of 100.

The second partner of Lin Jiayue was also a male actor, using the traditional idol drama routine. A luxury car did a drift and stopped. The male protagonist wearing sunglasses and a high-end suit walked out of the car. To the rhythm, he took off his sunglasses and showed an evil smile to the audience in front of him.

Although it's a bit bland, many fans fall for this straightforward rhetoric: "So handsome!" "An overwhelming aura!"

This time it was lower, scoring 87 points.

The third Chen Yuanhang is played by Su Yining’s rival Li Tongtong.

Li Tongtong is naturally a great beauty, but her temperament is more gentle and soft, not like Su Yining's more aggressive appearance.

The audience was looking forward to what scene Chen Yuanhang would bring, but unexpectedly, the screen lit up and a classic scene from "Star Wars (Part 1)" appeared. In the princess' bedroom of Gardner Star, Li Tongtong was lying on the bed wearing Princess Gardner's long dress and suddenly opened her eyes.

In the first film, the role of Princess Gardner was played by a teenage actress, who fell into a deep sleep for the male lead.

When "Star Wars (Part 2)" was officially announced, everyone knew that Li Tongtong would play the princess. Unexpectedly, Chen Yuanhang would use his ultimate move as soon as he arrived, and seemed to have used this variety show as a disguised venue to release the trailer.

Most of the viewers who watched the live broadcast had already watched the first Star Wars movie, so when they saw the plot of the second movie, their attention immediately jumped.

'Foul, foul! Star Wars isn't released yet!'

'Li Tongtong is so suitable for this role~'

The attention score in the upper right corner also lived up to expectations, surpassing Kang Yu, who ranked first, and scored 94 points.

Among the barrage of comments, it was finally Wei Lan's short video's turn to play.

Retro piano music was playing on the record player, and beautiful light music was flowing in the air.

This is a luxurious and retro mansion. The view passes through the brown wood furniture, golden wall clocks, and silk fabrics. The whole world is filled with a misty, intoxicating warm yellow color.

Finally, it stopped at the wine glass on the counter. There was still half a glass of red wine left in the glass, and a little ambiguous lipstick mark on the rim of the glass.

Through the transparent goblet, you can vaguely see a woman sitting on the bed putting on stockings.

I couldn't see her face clearly, but just from her slender white ankles and her waterfall-like black hair, I could tell that she was a beauty that aroused endless imagination.

The more mysterious something is, the more it attracts people to explore it, and this is especially true for beautiful women.

Every audience, regardless of gender, would like to zoom in to see the beauty more clearly.

But you can’t choose your own perspective for short films, you can only watch from the director’s perspective.

However, the director understood the audience very well and quickly zoomed in on the beauty's feet, watching her put on flesh-colored stockings on her snow-white feet and step into a pair of black high heels.

She walked to the mirror with a "da da da" sound, and this hateful angle of view perfectly avoided the beautiful woman's face.

Only a corner of the mirror could be seen from behind, which was her delicate and small lips. She applied lipstick on her lips, which was an extremely bright red.

'Director, please move the camera so I can see which beautiful lady it is!'

'Please tell me the lipstick color number...'

Finally, the beauty stood up, stood at the door, picked up the windbreaker on the hanging rod, and put it on.

She faced the door and lifted her hair out of her clothes, creating soft and shiny ripples that were even bright enough to be dazzling in the sunlight outside.

As she walks outside, the camera follows her back as she walks into the street.

"Hey!"

Someone outside the picture called out softly, and the beauty seemed to hear the voice and stopped hesitantly.

'Turn around! Turn around!'

"I'm going to beat up the director, beautiful sister, turn around quickly."

As if she had seen the comments from the audience, the beauty finally turned around.

Her snow-white cheeks, high nose bridge, and long, curly eyelashes have just caught the audience's eye, and the overall profile image has not yet formed in their minds.

“Swish!”

The vision went black and the short film ended.

The barrage was blank for a moment, then burst out again:

'? ? ? '

'Does anyone here figure out who it is? ? '

'Director, come out quickly and I promise I won't hit you!'

In this short film where a character appears, the audience is not allowed to see the character's full face from beginning to end!

Wei Lan is in fourth place, which should be a disadvantageous position. However, because the "dark horse actor" she brought has not been made public, the audience has maintained a certain curiosity. As a result, in this short film, we still can't see clearly who this actor is. It can be said that the mystery is played to the extreme.

The four guests on the judging panel were dumbfounded by this scene and didn't know how to comment on it for a moment.

Luhman: “Then let’s see how much attention this debut gets.”

"Ding, deng, deng..." After a burst of drum beats, the numbers stopped.

The huge '98' appeared in everyone's eyes.
