Chapter 94, A well-educated eunuch

Of course, that’s what Wuyonggong said.

But you still have to audition.

At least Teacher Yao Tang was still carefully examining the next actors.

If it's just a formality.

Then this scene was taken a bit too seriously.

At least Deng Yancheng and Xu Xiaodong don’t think that Teacher Yao Tang would give higher scores to actors outside the central circle.

We are all in the same circle.

You can't see it when you look down, but you can see it when you look up.

I wouldn't give any other actor a higher score.

This is how the circle is, and this is how face is.

"Do you think Li Yun will regret not sticking to the role of Wan Sanqian by then?" Xu Xiaodong said, touching his chin.

When Li Yun gave up the role of Wan Sanqian, it had already been taken away by someone else at the speed of light.

That person is probably still confused. This person was just sitting at home, and the role came down from the sky too quickly.

"Maybe this is just a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger. As a new generation of actors, they may have gotten a role in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils and thought they could do it." Deng Yancheng paused and said, "But from a personal point of view, I still admire this kind of hardworking young people who choose to challenge themselves even though they know their opponents are veteran actors in the central drama circle."

To put it bluntly, it's commendable courage.

"If possible, let's save another role and see if there is any. I heard that he is a pretty good young man."

"Our drama is so popular, there's no role left for him." Xu Xiaodong said with a smile, "You know how popular our crew is."

"That's true."

“I think the performance is pretty good.”

At least at this moment, Li Jianyi felt that his performance was quite good, at least he showed his side as a factory manager to the fullest.

This is what he was thinking in his heart. "I think the role is secured this time." At this time, Li Jianyi's friend Ni Chenghong, who also works at the National Theatre, came with him.

"Stable? I don't know. At least, my performance is not bad. If there is really someone who can take this role from me, then he must be more powerful." At this time, Li Jianyi said with a smile.

"A better actor than you."

There are definitely actors who are better than Li Jianyi. Li Jianyi can only be considered a decent actor in the National Theatre.

But is there anyone like him in the crew of "The World's Number One"?

Ni Chenghong doesn't think so.

"I heard that this time a young man gave up his own chance to audition and compete with you for the role. He really doesn't know his own limitations."

"I think you are brave enough." Li Jianyi smiled and said, "After all, everyone has a time when they are young and frivolous. Even if you don't understand it now, you will understand it in the future."

"Hey, you're quite open-minded."

"Well, let's not talk too much. I'm going back to my hometown to cook for my wife."

"You really love your wife."

"Of course not."

When Li Jianyi went out.

Also glanced at the other side.

I saw the other opponent who was auditioning with me this time, a young actor named Li Yun.

Li Yun just sat there quietly, closing his eyes to rest. He was no more nervous than others. Instead, he was surprisingly calm.

I had a good attitude when facing the audition.

At this time, even Ni Chenghong said.

“To be honest, younger than I thought.”

That’s true.

That's all.

After all, he is so young.

Not to mention controlling a powerful factory manager.

I don’t even know if I can control an ordinary eunuch.

Some characters.

It still takes some time to mature.

Even makeup skills can’t make you have the aura of a high position directly.

finally.

It was Li Yun's turn to audition.

"My name is Li Yun. Hello, examiners. I am 23 years old."

Young and green boy.

One word.

handsome.

Today's Li Yunhua is more feminine, but her sunny temperament is still there.

The first impression.

Just a handsome look.

temperament.

But it gives people a kind of.

A strange bookish air? Xu Xiaodong found it a little unbelievable.

I actually found the scholarly air in the audition for the role of a eunuch.

Wouldn't it be reasonable that this happened to the Donglin Party, the eunuchs' mortal enemies?

The stereotype of eunuch leaders is not all sinister and cunning.

Aren't they all "evil"?

"It doesn't seem right." Xu Xiaodong whispered in Deng Yancheng's ear.

But at this moment, Deng Yancheng was looking at Li Yun. His expression seemed a little surprised, but his eyes seemed more serious.

At least he looked at the young man in front of him more seriously than he did at the beginning.

Yao Tang just looked at Li Yun in front of him, but his eyes were full of interest.

The young man in front of me has a very novel angle in presenting the character.

At least he had never seen such a eunuch.

Never seen such an angle of presentation.

Different from others.

But at this moment, Li Yun raised his chin slightly.

There was a hint of arrogance in his expression.

A hint of arrogance.

"Come here, take this man away, interrogate him thoroughly, and question him thoroughly. If he refuses to confess, pierce his collarbone. If he refuses to confess, punish him with a flogging. I want to see if he is tougher or my whip is harder."

The cold tone of his voice revealed his cruelty.

This factory manager is still the factory manager.

Even though he appeared well-mannered and well-educated when he came in, his wife was still a factory manager.

A governor of the East Depot who holds the power over the lives and deaths of millions of people.

The coldness and grimness in the tone was captured just right.

This is one of the underlying qualities of the character.

It's the same whether it's Li Yun or Li Jianyi.

The ideas presented here are pretty much the same.

But the young actor Li Yun's performance was quite convincing.

It really made everyone nod their heads.

Not bad, the coldness is well controlled.

But if a little bit of bookish air is added, it can be barely made up.

Different from the somewhat domineering Cao Zhengchun portrayed by Li Jianyi.

The Cao Zhengchun presented by Li Yun seems to be a combination of femininity and bookishness.

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

"He practices Tiangang Boy's Kung Fu, so it should have some masculinity, right?" Xu Xiaodong said. He was the one who made all the Kung Fu backgrounds, and all the action scenes had to conform to the Kung Fu settings.

"But he is still a eunuch after all. How can I balance the masculine nature of this Kung Fu with the coldness of the eunuch?" Deng Yancheng touched his chin and continued watching.

"I feel that the bookish atmosphere is even more off-putting."

"Let me tell you something secretly. The eunuchs during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty," Deng Yancheng said, "all knew how to read."

Compared to the eunuchs in traditional works, who are insidious, vicious and unlearned.

A eunuch who seems to be well-educated and well-mannered.

It's also more in line with history.

Li Yun was immersed in his own play.

Or rather, he was immersed in his own imitation of the eunuch from the Eastern Depot.

They are not a bunch of vulgar and uncultured people.

On the contrary, each of these eunuchs was well-educated and had read the Four Books and Five Classics, especially those who had reached high positions.

Why were eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty able to seize power?

Why is he so powerful? Because he can only flatter others?

Wouldn't this make the Donglin Party even more cowardly?

It's so difficult to deal with a group of rootless people who can only flatter others. They can't even raise their heads when oppressed by others. Isn't it also a kind of self-depreciation to weaken your enemies?

So to speak.

Li Yun's analysis.

See Cao Zhengchun of the East Factory.

He should be a person with great martial arts skills and extensive knowledge.

His strategy, his kung fu.

Everything about him enables him to stand in this position and play against Zhu Wusi, the owner of Hulong Villa and a member of the royal family.

He can play chess against him and has absolute power.

Eunuch Cao.

He definitely can't be a fool.

He will definitely be a hero.

This is his appearance.

The appearance of Cao Zhengchun copied by Li Yun.

So what is his inner self like? What should his inner self be like?

Yes, his inner self.

one person.

A role.

He has his inner self and pursuits.

What is Cao Zhengchun pursuing?

Fighting with Zhu Wushi? It's because of power.

After all, the East Factory and the Hulong Villa are two secret agencies that share power, and no one wants to give their power to the other party.

It is human nature to fight for power and profit. No one wants the power in their hands to weaken, and this is especially true for eunuchs who have lost their descendants. They have nothing more to lose.

So.

Is that it?

Is what you are pursuing the instinctive desire for power?

wrong.

No.

At this time, Li Yun appeared after a bookish eunuch from the East Factory.

It was indeed refreshing to the judges.

Especially for Deng Yancheng and Yao Tang, this entry point is enough to make them feel refreshed.

But if this is the only reason, the role would definitely go to Li Jianyi.

One can only think that the young man who can catch Wang Jing's eye is indeed quite capable. Before, Deng Yancheng could not figure out why Wang Jing cared so much about this third-rate actor of the new generation.

He is a grassroots person in Hengpiao and has never received any professional training.

Is gifted.

Deng Yancheng was thinking at this moment that with this character's understanding and comprehension, he could really be given a role.

But this role will not be Cao Zhengchun.

Judging from current events, Li Yun has not shown any superiority over Li Jianyi.

Or maybe it's just a matter of course.

"Let's discuss it with Lao Wang when the time comes. This young man does have something." Deng Yancheng's eyes were filled with a hint of appreciation.

In his opinion, this audition should be over.

It should have ended right here.

But at this moment, Li Yun raised his head.

"His Majesty."

The tone became extremely gentle.

It seems like he is not the same person as the Director of the East Depot who just seemed to be interrogating a prisoner in the death row.

That incomparable tenderness.

"I am here to share your worries."

When Li Yun said this.

It also presents a trait that has never been shown before.

A trait that even Deng Yancheng and Yao Tang could not have thought of. Loyalty.
