Chapter 16, Role Solidification?
The completion of Nie Renwang’s role had no impact on most actors, and the filming of Feng Yun Xiong Ba Tian Xia continued.
After finishing a day's shooting, Wang Rui and Xu Zhengliang chatted.
"I feel like he is really good at playing this role." Wang Rui said of Nie Renwang, "I feel like he has no shortage of food to eat."
For a supporting actor, having enough food to eat is already a high evaluation.
The end of most of the people who work in Hengdian is to be hungry one day and full the next. They have no food to eat after the last one, and live in a house with a wall. Finally, they return to their hometown. Those who have land cultivate it, and those who don’t go south. Most of them go to work in factories as screw drivers.
"It's true that we have enough food to eat." Xu Zhengliang nodded while eating a chicken leg in his lunch box.
There is a specific look and immersion for a specific character.
Just like Uncle Ying to the Taoist priests.
When I think of Uncle Ying, I think of Taoist priests. The image of the actor is fixed.
But it may not be a bad thing.
According to Wang Rui, with Li Yun's acting skills, if the image of Nie Renwang, the retired swordsman, can be established, the actor will never lack food to eat.
As long as there are costume dramas, there will be a market for similar roles. "But if the role is really fixed, it's easy to be trapped in one role for a lifetime." Wang Rui thought about it. Being trapped in one role for a lifetime, the development prospects are obviously limited.
It's quite limited. That's how so many 'gold medal supporting actors' come about, playing one role for their entire life.
"How do you want to develop? Do you still want to be the best actor or best actor?" Xu Zhengliang joked with Wang Rui while sorting out the script storyboards: "Do you think it's so easy to get into the entertainment industry? It's enough to make a living, have a specific role to play well, and not starve to death."
Wang Rui said.
"That's true."
For Xu Zhengliang.
Doing Li Yun a favor is quite cost-effective. After all, it is obvious that he will become a professional in costume dramas. It just so happens that Xu Zhengliang also has several costume drama projects, and the premise is that "Feng Yun Xiong Ba Tian Xia" can perform well. By then, he will have a lot of costume fantasy scripts in his hands.
Xu Zhengliang is confident about "Feng Yun".
There's nothing wrong with asking for a recommendation letter for an audition just to get something done.
And the young actor Li Yun may have a bright future.
Become a professional in a certain stereotyped role.
This is probably the fate of most immersive actors. If they seek a breakthrough, most of them will give up immersive acting and turn to method acting.
For those who rely on the immersive acting path, the final outcome is nothing more than becoming a professional in playing a single role. The advantage of the immersive acting method is that they have a deep understanding of the role and delve deeply into it, but that is also a disadvantage.
It is not impossible to win the Best Actor or Best Actress awards, but not many.
I am so immersed in a single role that it is almost impossible for me to play the leading role. There are not so many roles that are tailor-made for me.
It's always about the actor fitting the role.
There is no role that serves the actor.
Even if there is.
That must be a bad movie.
"What if, what if?" Wang Rui suddenly thought of something: "What if, what if he can really have a thousand faces?"
Wang Rui still couldn't forget the way Li Yun talked to the air.
He was still young, and it was his first time seeing immersive actors. They were indeed very different from other actors. It was quite impressive.
Quite memorable.
Xu Zhengliang sneered.
"Even if he really has the talent to be able to have a thousand faces, he will definitely end up in a mental hospital. I've heard that great immersive actors all have special doctors to treat them."
Wang Rui also said this.
"Then what if, what if, he can really do it? He has both talent and can completely immerse himself in the role."
Xu Zhengliang thought about it, if there really was a person who could immerse himself in any role and not be sent to a mental hospital.
"Then he should be the actor with a thousand faces."
[Send Away the Retired Swordsman]
[I originally forgot about Jianghu, but why did Jianghu not forget me? I was involved in the vortex and disputes, and finally lost my wife. After all, I am a Jianghu person and cannot decide for myself——]
[(Jianghu Ke) Acting Skills +10]
[Constitution +10]
[Sword Skills +10]
[The food you take in will be absorbed 100% until your physical fitness reaches +10]
The system is somewhat scientific.
Li Yun was a little stunned. So this is how physical fitness is increased. He thought the system had increased it for him with a ding.
Very reasonable.
Quite reasonable.
If you eat nutritious food, you shouldn't have any problems.
Now I am a small local tyrant.
The crew of "Feng Yun Xiong Ba Tian Xia" was quite generous in paying, and even the supporting actors were not skimped on their pay.
Five thousand yuan, arrived.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Feeling the increase in the number in his passbook, which finally broke through half of the five-digit mark, Li Yun felt a spontaneous sense of happiness.
Damn.
You are free to eat meat.
Li Yun feels like he earns 5,000 yuan a month.
A monthly income of 5,000! Although in my previous life, I also earned over 10,000 a month.
But there is no comparison between five thousand in 2002 and over ten thousand in 2022.
Five thousand yuan in this era.
Li Yun didn't know whether to sigh, because the Hong Kong and Taiwan crews were really rich, or to sigh about the entertainment industry.
So fucking rich.
No wonder everyone is trying their best to get to this place.
It is indeed an exciting place.
It was somewhat surprising that I got the recommendation letter for "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber".
This is really an unexpected gain. I didn't expect the director to do me a favor.
However, Li Yun also had an idea in his mind.
It is difficult to repay a debt of favor.
But Li Yun is still very grateful to Xu Zhengliang for being willing to lend him this favor, and the director of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is the same.
A letter of recommendation is a piece of cake for them, but for me, if I can take off, it will be a debt of favor.
People drift in the world.
You always owe people favors.
Or owed by someone.
Others want it but it’s impossible.
Besides.
It is true that I have demonstrated strength that is worthy of recommendation, and the two-way choice is yes.
"The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber"
Judging from the era, this generation of Su Youpeng's version of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" is definitely a classic among classics. Li Yun still remembers the scene where Zhang Wuji played with Zhao Min's feet. It was exciting. Since the beginning of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", Zhang Da Huzi took over and opened the peak era of Jin Yong's martial arts dramas. He made many men and women famous and created many classic characters.
If nothing unexpected happens, I don't want to miss out on this wave of Jin Yong's martial arts dramas, and getting a letter of recommendation for The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber would be a good start.
At least we can't miss "The Return of the Condor Heroes". Well, this has Li Yun's own personal subjective consciousness in it.
The Little Dragon Girl is Liu Xixi! At least I can play Yin Zhiping in a cameo role!
"It's 2002, and Liu Qianqian hasn't grown up yet!" Li Yun murmured.
Let's wait until she grows up! (End of this chapter)
