Chapter 131 Casting
[I have a feeling that if Huang Qingyu were to play the female lead, her charisma, acting skills, and current situation would definitely attract a lot of fans! The chances of this drama becoming a huge hit would increase significantly!]
Upon hearing this, Director Liu and his assistant director both fell into deep thought.
Huang Qingyu?
She was indeed a very good actress. At that time, she was at the peak of her career and had a bright future. Who would have thought that she would be so foolish as to retire from the entertainment industry and abandon the career she loved for a man?
I wonder if she regrets the decision she made at this moment?
Thinking of this, Director Liu couldn't help but picture Huang Qingyu's face. Her image did indeed fit the female lead of this drama very well. If she still held fast to her original intentions and hadn't changed much, then casting her as the female lead would obviously be very suitable.
Of course, this is on the premise that she is willing to return to the entertainment industry and act again.
Not long ago, Lu Yining mentioned that Guo Yunpan would be arrested and imprisoned tonight. In other words, Huang Qingyu would be rescued from the basement today.
Thinking of this, Director Liu's mind started to work a little more.
Perhaps he could go and look for Huang Qingyu, and find some time another day to buy some fruit and go see her.
As for the male lead, judging from Director Liu's opinion, he will likely favor Jiang Yinnian.
Director Liu nodded to himself. Indeed, after watching Jiang Yinnian's performance, he felt that he was quite suitable for the male lead role. Moreover, Jiang Yinnian's acting skills were superb, and there was no trace of acting during the scenes. He was a rare talent.
I just... don't know what Jiang Yinnian's temperament is like?
Perhaps there were too many people just now, and Lu Yining couldn't keep up, so she didn't get to give Jiang Yinnian any feedback.
[However, Jiang Yinnian isn't a very suitable candidate. Although his acting skills are superb and his physique and appearance are excellent, he's insane! He's ruthless beyond belief!]
He can be all smiles and laughter at you one second, and then skin you alive the next! No one knows that once, someone wore the exact same clothes as him, and Jiang Yinnian ordered his men to capture that person and bring him back to the Jiang family, where he was executed!
[Afterwards, Ga even stripped him of his clothes and burned them, and then skinned him alive and kept the skin! My God! That's utterly perverted!]
Although that guy was also foul-mouthed, why did he have to provoke Jiang Yinnian? If he hadn't been so talkative that day, he wouldn't have ended up like that. But if we really have to compare, Jiang Yinnian is obviously much more ruthless. Dealing with him requires constant observation and careful consideration; otherwise, there's only one outcome: death!
And to die without any dignity! Even after death, they would be subjected to the most humiliating torture and disgrace!
Director Liu and the others shuddered upon hearing this, and the assistant director's mouth trembled uncontrollably.
abnormal!
That's insane!
utterly perverted!
Director Liu swore that even if all the suitable candidates in the world died, he would not want Jiang Yinnian, that pervert, to be the male lead of this drama!
Actually, there's someone even more suitable for the male lead role than Jiang Yinnian, and that's... Jiang Xinghe.
Jiang Xinghe?
Can he really?
Director Liu couldn't help but raise questions, and even the assistant director was no exception.
Jiang Xinghe has acting skills, but compared to Jiang Yinnian, he is simply incomparable. Moreover... Jiang Xinghe's overall temperament is a bit immature, while the male lead of this drama is a person with a calm, reserved, and aloof temperament.
Jiang Xinghe?
That might not work, right?
Of the three, only Lu Yunjie stood by Lu Yining.
If his fifth sister says Jiang Xinghe is capable, then he is capable! Whatever his fifth sister says is right!
[Actually, many directors have misunderstood Jiang Xinghe because he has played younger brothers or "puppy-like" characters in several of his previous films.]
[Furthermore, Jiang Xinghe does look rather young, so they directly projected this onto him, believing that his acting range was very narrow and that he could only play somewhat naive and innocent roles.]
"Yes, that's right," the assistant director nodded. "Is there anything wrong with that? Jiang Xinghe... is indeed more suitable for this type of role, and... people can feel more immersed in this type of role when Jiang Xinghe plays it."
Director Liu, on the other hand, was stunned for a moment. After the initial shock, he came to his senses and understood the meaning behind Lu Yining's words.
Just like him, in the beginning, didn't he also have a preconceived notion about Lu Yining, believing that she could only handle some innocent school beauty roles?
But as it turns out, he was proven wrong.
Lu Yining can not only handle the role of a school beauty, but she can also play a villain, as well as some lively and cute characters. Even when she is angry, she handles it very well, neither spoiled nor shrewish, but just right.
Even though everyone knew she was angry, they were still drawn to her fiery face, puffed up and round. It made her seem adorable even when she was angry.
Perhaps, Jiang Xinghe is the same; given an opportunity, he can portray many different roles with different personalities.
Lu Yining's subsequent thoughts also corroborated this point.
[Actually, Jiang Xinghe has a wide range of acting skills. A lead role is easy to portray poorly, easily resulting in a lifeless performance, but Jiang Xinghe can definitely deliver a very convincing performance, perhaps even better than Jiang Yinnian.]
How did she know that?
It was because the information provided to her by the gossip system not long ago mentioned that Jiang Xinghe would meet his mentor in the future, and that mentor would choose him to play the male lead. It was a very difficult role to play, but Jiang Xinghe managed to handle it.
That was also when he went viral, becoming an idol for countless young girls with just one drama.
The assistant director was somewhat skeptical: Isn't that an exaggeration? Better than Jiang Yinnian? Although Jiang Yinnian is a complete freak, his acting skills are widely recognized.
Director Liu steadied himself, picked up the sign-in sheets on the table, and looked at them one by one. However, after looking at several sheets, he still couldn't find Jiang Xinghe's name.
"Jiang Xinghe didn't come to this audition?"
[By the way! Jiang Xinghe will probably be a little late for the auditions. He was hit by a car on the way. It's not serious, but he damaged his meniscus and needs to go to the hospital for treatment before he can come over.]
The original book did not mention Jiang Xinghe, but through the gossip, Lu Yining learned that the unfortunate Jiang Xinghe went to the hospital after being hit by a car, and then rushed to the test film set.
Unfortunately, by the time he arrived, the audition had already ended, and the huge audition venue was completely empty except for him.
After hearing the whole story, Director Liu unconsciously tapped his thigh a few times with his finger: "Then let's leave a little later today."
