Chapter 456 Are You Willing to Have Bilian?

Li Man and his agent said goodbye to Hu Yuhua and got into his car. He then relaxed his back which had been straight all night and leaned back gently on the seat.

The agent asked hurriedly: "How is it? Are you sure?"

This meal was organized by Hu Yuhua, giving Li Man and Su Tong a chance to get close to Lin Fan. It was not convenient for the agent to come along, but he was worried about Li Man, so the agent just sat in the car and waited.

Li Man frowned slightly and considered: "I'm not sure."

The agent didn't expect to hear these words from Riemann. You know, Riemann was last year's Best Actress. Her acting skills and popularity are obvious to all. There are very few roles that Riemann can't get.

It’s the same even if the opponent is Su Tong.

Li Man snatched the Best Actress award from Su Tong. In last year's Best Actress selection, Li Man and Su Tong were both strong competitors, but Li Man won slightly. It doesn't mean that Su Tong is really inferior to Li Man. The strength of the two should be on par.

So this time Hu Yuhua treated them fairly and let them compete for the role together. If it were Shanghai Film's previous style, this would not have happened. The female lead would have been chosen directly, and the other one would not know why she was not selected and could only accept the fact.

Although Li Man and Su Tong are both the favorite female protagonists of Shanghai Film, the producers still have the final say on who to use and who not to use. The producers have made the decision, and given their status in this circle, it is not appropriate for them to quarrel publicly.

Even after the TV series was broadcast, when she saw the other person's acting skills, she felt that if she were on the show, she would definitely perform better than the other person! But now it's different, Li Man has the opportunity to compete head-on with Su Tong! An unknown fire of war burned fiercely in Li Man's chest, and she wanted to completely suppress Su Tong through head-on competition and establish her position as the number one actress in TV series!

The agent asked, "Is it because Lin Fan is more optimistic about Su Tong?"

"This, shouldn't be the case." Li Man recalled Lin Fan's performance at the dinner party, "I think he probably felt that neither me nor Su Tong fit the image of the heroine in his mind."

Reading people's expressions is an essential skill for every actor. By reading people's expressions, body movements, tone of voice and other external expressions, one can figure out their inner thoughts. Only then can one fit in with the character's inner thoughts during performance and convey that meticulous feeling.

The agent comforted Li Man: "The image can be adjusted through styling, but acting skills are the key. As long as you can perform normally during the formal audition, I believe this role belongs to you!"

Riemann knew that his agent was trying to comfort him so that he wouldn't be too stressed out.

After all, I am getting older and older. Although I won the honor of Best Actress, the actual acting space left for me is getting narrower and narrower.

There are always many young and talented actresses, they just lack a chance to shine. In the current market, except for a few producers who win by quality, the vast majority of scripts favor young and beautiful newcomers.

Actresses like Li Man, who have entered the threshold of 30 years old, can barely play the leading role of a 20-year-old heroine by taking good care of themselves and relying on the "girly" personality created by the styling team. But what about in a few years? What about when you are 40 years old?

After finally making a name for herself, is she going to hand over her fame to newcomers and go play roles in family dramas? Or be a mother to newcomers? Riemann is not willing to do that!

"I'm determined to get the female lead in The Legend of White Snake! There are still a few days before the audition. Please hire a drama teacher for me. I want to make up for the relevant knowledge. I won't talk about other things. I want to learn all the gestures, postures, ways of walking, etc. in the drama!"

The agent was a little surprised: "Okay, I'll contact you. But does this have any direct relationship with this play?"

Li Man replied sadly: "During the meal, Lin Fan looked at Su Tong's hands and waist twice more."

Agent: Hmm? Are you sure those two glances are related to work? And not just because Lin Fan covets Su Tong's beauty?

Of course, the agent didn't say this, but Li Man understood his look and said unhappily, "No! Lin Fan's eyes were scrutinizing, not lecherous, I can tell that clearly! And I noticed that Su Tong seemed to be making a gesture from a drama. She had studied drama before, so her posture still had a little bit of drama.

I suspect that Lin Fan had the idea of ​​adding traditional drama to the play "Legend of the White Snake". Anyway, I can't let Su Tong outperform me in this aspect! It's unrealistic to learn it in a few days, but it's enough for me to grasp a little bit of the charm. "

The agent laughed awkwardly, "So that's how it is! Okay, I happen to know a disciple of a Huangmei Opera master - I'll invite him to give you some expedited training!"

…

On this side, Yang Hongxia also received a call from an acquaintance.

"Sister Xia, I know I was sorry for you when I went back on my word, but I really need this opportunity!"

Yang Hongxia curled her lips, but her voice was still gentle: "Lingling, we have known each other for a long time, and our cooperation is mutually beneficial. How can one of us let the other down? You have your considerations, and I understand. But the role of "Legend of the White Snake" is really not something I can decide. After all, even Sister Man and Sister Tong need to audition. If I give you a backdoor, it would be too offensive. If this gets out, do you still want to stay in this circle?"

Zhang Youling was silent for a moment, as if she was digesting the news: "Sister Man, is it last year's TVB Best Actress Sister Man? And Sister Su Tongtong? Are they also vying for this role?"

Yang Hongxia smiled: "Yes!"

"Sister Xia, I..."

Lin Fan, who was sitting next to him, suddenly interrupted: "Sister Xia, whose phone is it?"

Yang Hongxia looked at Lin Fan in surprise, as if she didn't understand why Lin Fan interrupted at this time, but she still answered truthfully: "It's Lingling. You also collaborated on the ending song once. Do you remember?"

Lin Fan suddenly realized, well, it was just a little exaggerated: "Oh -, remember! Speaking of which, she is quite suitable for the role of Bilian in "Legend of the White Snake". Sister Xia, ask her if she is willing to play Bilian?"

Why does this sound weird?

Yang Hongxia's eyes flashed, as if she understood what Lin Fan meant, and she conveyed it to Zhang Youling truthfully: "Lingling, did you hear what Lin Fan said? Do you want the role of Bilian?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Zhang Youling: ...I feel like you are scolding me.

Moreover, Zhang Youling went for the female lead, but Lin Fan only gave her a role that was either female No. 5 or No. 6. Isn't this a deliberate rejection?

No matter how thick-skinned Zhang Youling was, she couldn't respond: "Since there is no suitable role, I won't bother Sister Xia anymore."

"No problem."

Yang Hongxia hung up the phone and glared at Lin Fan: "Why do you have to offend her? I can get rid of her."

Lin Fan smiled and said, "I asked her sincerely if she wanted Bilian. To be honest, I didn't like people like Ji Sha who relied on connections to climb up at first, but later I realized that Ji Sha's actions were actually a kind of equal exchange."

However, Zhang Youling enjoyed the resources and maintenance provided by Yang Hongxia, but was unwilling to pay the equivalent trust. She jumped back and forth between Yang Hongxia and Xinghe Entertainment, waiting for the right price.

That's fine. After all, people are profit-seeking. Zhang Youling thinks Xinghe is more reliable than Yang Hongxia, so she just stays in Xinghe.

But she is not.

Whenever Yang Hongxia made some noise, Zhang Youling would come over to get involved, playing the emotional card, but she was unwilling to leave Xinghe completely, thinking that she could take advantage of both sides. How could such a good thing happen in the world? So Yang Hongxia wanted to get rid of Zhang Youling tactfully, after all, it was not good to offend someone in this circle.

But Lin Fan didn't want to endure it.

"Sister Xia, from now on, I won't use that Ling for any of my projects."

Lin Fan was helping himself to vent his anger! Yang Hongxia felt relieved and a little amused: "Yes, Director Lin, the great talent Lin, you have the final say!"

Piao Piao, where are you? Have you traveled? Can you bring me some delicious food? 　　 　 (End of this chapter)
