Chapter 190 Who are you? Never seen before!
As a screenwriter, it is a blessing in my life to have an actor who respects my work so much and can perform it vividly.
When Lin Yi read this experience again, he paid more attention to it. He read it carefully sentence by sentence, and then organized it carefully.
"Mr. Lin, do you think my understanding is correct?" Hu Xiaoxiao looked at him eagerly.
Lin Yi pondered for a moment. Hu Xiaoxiao's understanding of Xie Weihua was about 70% consistent with his original intention.
The other two or three points of difference are Hu Xiaoxiao's own unique insights, but this insight does not affect the integrity of the character. Instead, it gives him a refreshing feeling.
The image of a character in each reader's mind is often different from the author's imagination, but this difference not only does not affect the character, but also makes the character more vivid.
It's like the author creates a doll, and upon seeing it, the reader dresses it beautifully and gives it a stylish hairstyle. Different readers give the doll different clothing styles, colors, and hairstyles, making the doll even more vivid and full of life. Seeing the doll dressed in clothes, the author couldn't help but marvel at how the casually created doll had taken on a soul.
The character's body is given by the author, and the soul is given by the reader.
This is what Lin Yi felt after reading Hu Xiaoxiao’s experience.
"Mr. Lin, take another look at this." Hu Xiaoxiao handed three more photos to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi came back to his senses from his thoughts and took the photo handed to him by Hu Xiaoxiao.
Lin Yi showed an extremely surprised look, looked up at Hu Xiaoxiao, and then his eyes fell on the photos. He looked at each one for a long time, and then moved on to the next one. He looked at each one very carefully and cherished it.
In the three photos, Hu Xiaoxiao is wearing three sets of clothes from the Republic of China period and has a hairstyle that was popular among celebrities at that time.
In the first photo, she was walking in front of a man, arm in arm. She turned her head, seemingly looking back unintentionally. Her makeup and temperament were full of the style of a woman from the Republic of China. If the photo wasn't so new, Lin Yi would have thought it was an old photo taken during the Republic of China.
In the second photo, she was dancing with a man on the dance floor. She looked up at him, graceful and elegant, heroic and graceful. Lin Yi stared at this photo the longest because it particularly resembled the prototype he had used as a reference when designing Xie Weihua.
The third photo was taken in the rain. The man held an umbrella and walked with her on an old street. He lowered his head, looking at her with a smile, while she smiled at the rain, feeling the peaceful passage of time.
In the three photos, only Hu Xiaoxiao could be clearly seen; the man's face was not revealed. However, Lin Yi immediately recognized the man's height and build, resembling Song Yan'an. He asked, "Are these photos taken with you by Song Yan'an?"
Seeing that Lin Yi was also fooled, Hu Xiaoxiao laughed and said, "No, Brother An is so busy, I can't bother him. This is another actor I hired who is similar in height and build to Brother An. However, because of the similarity, the effect of my filming with Brother An in the future will be similar."
Lin Yi nodded, his gaze fixed on the three photos for a long time.
He carefully put away his thoughts and photos and said to Hu Xiaoxiao, "I'll take another look."
"You can take a look at it. I brought it here today just to let you take a look and give me some guidance." Hu Xiaoxiao said.
Lin Yi nodded and said to Hu Xiaoxiao, "You are a very thoughtful young woman. I have seen a few of your dramas, but they were all ancient costumes. I didn't expect that you can also pull off the Republic of China costumes."
"Not only can I pull off the costumes of the Republic of China, I can also play the characters of the Republic of China. It all depends on whether Mr. Lin is willing to give me this opportunity."
Lin Yi just smiled and did not give Hu Xiaoxiao a definite answer.
But after Hu Xiaoxiao carefully accepted the photos and experience from Lin Yi, she knew that her efforts were not in vain.
After leaving the Lin family, Hu Xiaoxiao felt a little relieved.
Next, I have to find a way to convince the director.
Compared to the screenwriter, the director's presence wasn't so easy. Besides his erratic temper, he also held the final say over the casting decisions, leading to a high volume of visits. Director Qi had established a rule long ago: he wouldn't meet with any actors before an audition. Any actor who bothered him would be expelled from the set.
Hu Xiaoxiao had asked Director Gu many things, and of course he knew the rule he had set.
In other words, I can only meet Director Qi during the audition.
However, because the TV series is produced by the company, which artists will play which roles and who will be promoted are basically already decided. Therefore, Director Qi's auditions don't have many artists. They are all pre-selected artists, and Director Qi then selects the suitable ones.
In order to succeed in the audition, Hu Xiaoxiao worked even harder and did a lot of preparation for the audition, determined to win over Xie Weihua.
The day of the audition soon arrived. In addition to the three female supporting roles, there were also several male supporting roles auditioning that day, all of which had important roles.
Yuna arrived before the time came. She arrived at the audition site half an hour earlier than the scheduled time.
In order to prepare for today's audition, Yuna also did a lot of preparation. She not only studied the script, but also studied the role of Xie Weihua thoroughly.
But when she learned that her competitors were Hu Xiaoxiao and Xia Lu, she felt unsure.
Needless to say, Hu Xiaoxiao is now the most popular first-line actress in the TV station. She debuted later than her, but has already overshadowed her.
The strength of Xia Lu, who has returned to the TV station, cannot be underestimated. When Xia Lu became popular, Yuna had just joined the TV station and was not even qualified to be Xia Lu's foil.
Yuna pulled out a mirror and checked her makeup again.
For today's audition, she specially put on makeup in the style of the Republic of China and borrowed a cheongsam from the costume team.
Although the pressure is great, Yuna is also an ambitious person. She is younger than Xia Lu and has more acting experience than Hu Xiaoxiao, making her more suitable for the role of Xie Weihua.
After touching up her makeup in front of the mirror, Yuna heard the rhythmic sound of high heels. She put down the mirror and looked at the person who came.
The visitor was also wearing a cheongsam from the Republic of China period. Her hair was combed into a hand-pushed wave that meandered across her forehead, making her look like a woman from the Republic of China who had walked out of a painting.
Yuna stood up and greeted the newcomer with a smile, "Sister Xia Lu, long time no see."
Xia Lu looked up and down at Yuna, who was wearing the same clothes as her and looked younger, with a puzzled look in her eyes. "Who are you? I've never seen you before. What roles did you play when you were on TV? Tell me about them, maybe I'll remember them."
Yuna had been a TV star for several years, and even if Xia Lu hadn't seen her show, she'd heard of her. Saying this at this moment was clearly condescending and arrogant, reminding Yuna that when she was at the peak of her fame, you were still playing minor roles somewhere, so how could you compete with her for a role?
