Chapter 96: Invitation to the premiere of Infernal Affairs 2

"Did you really take it down?"

One stone can cause a thousand ripples.

Jiang Chenggang is one of them.

He really didn't expect it.

Li Yun was really able to overpower the veteran actors and get the role of Cao Zhengchun.

He was the most surprised.

Although actors with a regular position in CCTV cannot be evaluated from first to fourth rate, after all, the actor's rate should be evaluated based on his status, popularity, and acting skills.

These things cannot be fully evaluated among the actors and actresses in CCTV.

After all, you can't judge others by their status.

It doesn't seem right to judge people based on their popularity.

It can only be judged based on acting skills. Only veteran actors, first-tier and second-tier actors can judge.

Li Jianyi has brought out many characters in the past. If we look at it from Jiang Chenggang's perspective, it is not an exaggeration to describe him as a drama master.

However, during this audition for "The World's Number One".

He actually lost to Li Yun.

This, this, this. "Although I also admire Mr. Li Jianyi's acting skills, there is a saying that sometimes, what determines the position of a role is not so much external factors as whether it is suitable or not."

Li Yun smiled faintly.

Especially for CCTV's planning.

This is also because most of the actors in the central circle are national-level actors, all belong to the National Theatre, and receive government salaries. If they cannot work here, they can work elsewhere, and it will not affect their monthly income.

It's quite different from ordinary actors who have irregular meals. That's why.

Actors and judges from the central circle may be able to look at the ownership of a role from a more objective perspective. "No matter what, you have got the position of 'Cao Zhengchun' this time. It's awesome, Li Zi, you are now the head of the East Factory." Jiang Chenggang gave Li Yun a thumbs up. He really won the battle of bayonets against Li Jianyi, which was absolutely beyond doubt.

Putting aside other factors, this is definitely a shocking thing.

You have to know that Li Jianyi has observed the eunuchs of the late Qing Dynasty since he was a child.

When he was five years old, he could already chat and laugh with the eunuchs of the late Qing Dynasty.

This is his absolute advantage as an actor. He has observed the "prototype" at close range, rather than profiling it through any documentary or material.

Most people want to see the prototype of the eunuch.

We can only rely on other people's TV dramas or records in books, and there is no way to copy the image through real appearance.

It can be said that this is Li Jianyi’s absolute advantage, an advantage that no one else can match.

But we have such an advantage.

Still got the role taken away.

"I guess many people in the industry will think you are the son of a certain circle." At this time, Jiang Chenggang said with a click of his tongue: "Even the people in the crew of "Number One Under Heaven" will not be convinced. Anyway, I think Zhu Wusi will definitely not be convinced."

Jiang Chenggang had heard about it. On the day of the audition, Zhu Wushi Liu Songren went to the audition site and heard that there was a young man there to audition for the role of Cao Zhengchun.

This Zhu Wusi was terrified.

After all, he is considered a veteran in the Hong Kong circle.

Apart from anything else, he is very careful about his acting opponents.

"Yes, Senior Li Jianyi had observed real eunuchs from the late Qing Dynasty when he was a teenager. This is his advantage, but it's not my advantage."

at this time.

Li Yun silently looked at the eunuch from the East Factory next to him. The eunuch was always talking about murder and arson.

But the bottom line is the eunuch Cao Zhengchun, who holds the imperial power.

You have a father-in-law.

Me too.

and.

Still a real factory owner.

Ming Dynasty, the director of the East Factory.

Anyway.

The roles have been confirmed, and unless something special happens, there probably won't be any last-minute changes.

During this period, Zhu Wushi Liu Songren once went to find Deng Yancheng and others, and confirmed again and again that this role would be taken by Li Yun, a third-rate actor of the new generation.

Although he didn't say anything and said he respected the crew's decision, many people actually knew that he was still a little helpless.

But at this moment, since the matter has been settled, there is nothing much to say.

The industry's response has gradually become indifferent.

Li Yun also faced many voices and words of congratulations.

From Tian Xiaoli, from Gao Yuanyuan.

Especially Gao Yuanyuan.

She was quite surprised to know that Li Yun had actually gotten the role of the second villain.

After all, Cao Zhengchun was previously appointed by Li Jianyi.

This is a veteran actor of CCTV.

He is a professional in this type of role.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like a role that can be taken away by others.

But it was snatched away by Li Yun.

Gao Yuanyuan said at this time.

"That's pretty impressive. I can't imagine you playing Cho Jung-chun."

The number two villain is the extremely treacherous and evil eunuch from the East Depot.

"Is it because I have only played minor villains that you think I can't handle it?"

"Song Qingshu is not a villain at all, he is just a little fool."

Wow, there will be a day when Song Qingshu will be called a little fool.

If Song Qingshu knew about this in the afterlife, he would probably be even angrier.

Li Yun was happy to make fun of it here.

Well, Song Qingshu was no longer around at this time.

The ones present are the two eunuchs next to them.

The best audition in the world has come to an end.

Right now.

The time has come for "Blind Shaft" to be released.

This Blind Well was shown in Hong Kong.

In other words, it was only shown in Hong Kong and Taiwan in the whole of China.

It is definitely banned in mainland China. Whether from the perspective of subject matter or shooting, it doesn't seem like it can be shown in mainland China.

If you want to watch the premiere, you can only fly to Hong Kong and Taiwan.

In contrast, there is the hotly anticipated "Infernal Affairs 2".

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

Compared with the ignored audiences of Blind Shaft, the release of Infernal Affairs 2 caught a lot of attention. The controversy over Liu Jianming's replacement did not affect the popularity of Infernal Affairs 2 at all.

It didn't affect it at all!

It really didn't affect it at all.

Especially with the popularity of Chen Guanxi, it seems that the popularity of Infernal Affairs 2 has exploded, and the pre-sale tickets have been sold out.

Li Yun could already imagine what his fans would look like when they called him a clown.

Of course, the premiere of Infernal Affairs 2 was still in Hong Kong.

The creator Liu Qiangwei even invited Li Yun to watch Infernal Affairs 2.

However, Liu Qiangwei had no ill intentions. He simply invited Li Yun to take a look.

Li Yun thought about it and decided that it was not impossible to go to Hong Kong.

I also got to watch the premiere of Blind Shaft.

It can be considered killing two birds with one stone.

The current situation is that after watching Blind Shaft and Infernal Affairs 2, the filming of The First Under Heaven will probably start, and I can go directly to report.

After saying something to Jiang Chenggang, Li Yun also packed up and prepared to go to Hong Kong.

Anyway, the crew of Infernal Affairs 2 reimbursed my air tickets, so it doesn’t matter.

After arriving in Hong Kong, I met Liu Qiangwei. It is said that people feel refreshed when they are happy. Liu Qiangwei looks very energetic. This time, the resources and publicity of Infernal Affairs 2 are fully utilized. Compared with Infernal Affairs 1, the resources are incomparable to the past.

When he was working on Infernal Affairs 1, he was worried about whether the box office would flop. But he had no such worries at all when working on Infernal Affairs 2.

It’s so reassuring to have Emperor Entertainment Group’s powerful publicity channels.

"Congratulations, congratulations. I heard that you have made a name for yourself in the TV drama circle."

At this moment Li Yun smiled faintly.

"It's OK. It's still a long way from ideal, but I'm gradually catching up."

"Then your dream is quite big." Liu Qiangwei was a little surprised.

Frankly speaking, Liu Qiangwei felt that Li Yun's rise to fame and his rise from a small Hengpiao artist to his current position was something that many people only dream of.

Although the best plan in the world may fail.

But at least he has established his status by being able to play this role.

"But I still think young people shouldn't aim too high and should just take it one step at a time." Liu Qiangwei said with a smile, "Let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go and watch the premiere of Infernal Affairs 2."

Liu Dehua was also invited. Although he did not participate in Infernal Affairs 2, as the soul character Liu Jianming, he was still invited.

Still dressed in her best attire, she appeared at the premiere of Infernal Affairs 2.

I greet everyone I meet politely, from the oldest to the youngest.

When sitting down at the premiere, Liang Chaowei also sat here.

"We were absent from Infernal Affairs 2, but we cannot be absent from Infernal Affairs 3," Tony Leung Chiu-wai joked.

"The audience will definitely not expect you to show up after being shot to death." Liu Dehua also smiled slightly. At this moment, he had already received the script of Infernal Affairs III.

Unlike Infernal Affairs 2, Infernal Affairs 3 was launched almost at the same time. After all, the commercial performance of this IP has been verified.

"Of course it's Liu Jianming who's gone crazy. He thinks he's the good policeman Chen Yongren."

"Hahaha"

At this moment, Liu Dehua and Liang Chaowei discussed Infernal Affairs 2. Although it was a work that supplemented the previous work, they had read the plot script and it was quite good.

Liang Chaowei said.

"Especially since we replaced Liu Jianming with Chen Guanxi, the influence of Infernal Affairs 2 has become even more far-reaching, and it also lays a foundation for the popularity of Infernal Affairs 3 that we are about to perform."

Just like actors, the popularity of IP will wane.

The reason why the trilogy had to be filmed in one go was because they were afraid that the popularity would fade.

This is clear.

"Change the actor" Liu Dehua touched his chin and said, "Actually, I think Li Yun would be a better choice for the role of Liu Jianming."

"Hmm? Chen Guanxi's acting is not bad either." Liang Chaowei was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the real protagonist Liu Jianming actually recognized the previous Li Yun more.

Yes, you know, Chen Guanxi is also one of the leading figures of the new generation in Hong Kong.

The top of the new generation is not as good as this third-rate actor from the mainland.

Liang Chaowei said at this time.

"I think the opposite of you. I think Chen Guanxi would be better. His temperament is more suitable for playing a little gangster."

“Ha, you’ll know after you read it.”

Even if everyone is more optimistic about Chen Guanxi's performance.

Including the director.

But Liu Dehua knew it.

I know deep down that whoever plays the role of Liu Jianming is just acting.

Li Yun is real.
