Fooling Huayu for Thirty Years

Chapter 192 Ye Quanzhen plays the female killer again! Huang Bo VS Huang Haibo!
"he?"

"Yeah, how is it? Do you feel like morning glory?"

"This...this is too ugly."

"What you said...well, it is indeed too ugly."

"Haha... Your Majesty~"

To be honest, Ma Xun really thinks Huang Bo is a pretty good actor.

But what Ye Quanzhen said about ugliness... was indeed not wrong.

Especially now Huang Bo is still a singer.

He is a really good singer. Maybe he is not very famous, but he has been on TV after all.

Later, many netizens may think that he was just running and singing on the treadmill during the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.

But in fact, he had been singing on TV for a long time.

Shandong TV, and now Beijing TV.

The level is really quite good.

It’s this face...Ma Xun can’t tell a lie.

You know, the current Huang Bo and the later Huang Bo can almost be regarded as two different people.

He is very thin now.

Some people look very handsome when they are thin, but some people look so...pointed-nosed and monkey-faced. This is probably designed for them.

It would be better to be a little fatter.

But then again, it’s actually pretty cool if something is ugly but has its own unique features.

In fact, in our country, there are many colleges and universities that focus on performing arts, such as Beijing Film Academy and Central Academy of Drama.

In the past, when recruiting students, we did look at their appearance, but not entirely.

That is to say, the recruitment is based on the roles of Sheng, Dan, Jing, Mo and Chou.

Ma Xun knew this very well, because he had actually been to school.

Moreover, there are also arrangements for the Sheng, Dan, Jing, Mo and Chou roles.

After four years of undergraduate study in the acting department, we will hold a graduation drama when we graduate.

When we first recruited students, we did so based on this graduation drama.

It was like this in the past, and many old professors would always bring up this issue.

Because if we recruit students in this way, the people we recruit will be actors.

But the economic benefits of recruiting students in this way are too poor.

Although Beijing Film Academy and Central Academy of Drama also receive certain amounts of funding from higher authorities, they are still not as good as Peking University and Tsinghua University. The gap is huge.

Moreover, many of those grants are for special purposes. For example, a large number of places must be given to minority students every year.

There are also operas like Peking Opera, as well as drum music, crosstalk, and so on.

This is all cultural heritage.

But these really don’t make money.

I had no choice but to ask Teacher Cui Xinqin to help me, and I just recruited people based on their looks!
You know what, it really works.

In fact, a few years ago, art exams were very unpopular, but now they are popular.

Even though Huang Bo is ugly in a distinctive way, he is very dedicated and professional in acting, so it is no wonder that he is so popular.

When Ma Xun mentioned that he played the role of Morning Glory, Ye Quanzhen just shook his head.

Well, it seems so... let's recall.

The Korean version of morning glory is actually not ugly.

As far as Korea is concerned, he looks pretty good.

Later generations evaluated this kind of appearance as a handsome guy without aggressiveness.

To be honest, if it was Lei Datou, that would be pretty good.

The reason why Lei Datou was chosen by Ning Hao to star in "The Golden Robbery" was actually because of his good looks... Can you believe this?
But it's true.

Although Lei Datou was also very funny at that time, he was young and thin after all, and his face was considered acceptable among comedians.

Such and such...

"Your Highness~ Can he be a backup? Let's look for him again."

"Okay, let's look for it again, but you should be clear about this direction."

"Yeah, that's it... I just don't want to find a handsome guy."

"Think about it, Bingbing is so beautiful, and if she is paired with a handsome guy, the conflict will be normal, but if she is paired with an ugly one..."

When Ma Xun said this, Ye Quanzhen couldn't hold it anymore.

The flowers and branches are shaking with laughter.

"My Lord, you are really good at it..."

"What are you doing? Explain it more clearly."

"Let's make a movie..."

Ye Quanzhen's breathing was uneven again.

Ma Xun has no time to think about making movies right now. It would be much better to focus on this cool beauty in front of him.

Besides, Ye Quanzhen is also a smart person.

"I also want to act in Young Justice Bao."

"So what are you going to act?"

"Um...what role do you think I should play?"

She swayed her waist as she spoke.

There was no delay.

Ma Xun laughed and said, "A costume drama with a detective plot, what else is there to say?"

"Oh my~ I'm being asked to play the female killer again~"

The sound of Ye Quanzhen's pinch was really sweet.

"Just tell me whether you want to act or not." Ma Xun had actually heard that she really wanted to.

Ye Quanzhen blushed, knowing that she had been completely seen through by Ma Xun, so she had to say, "Act~ me, I can act."

She plays a female killer in the costume drama, which is really exciting.

It’s just as exciting as it is now.

But Ma Xun immediately thought of an important role, "The Justice Bao in our play is a young man, who do you think should play the role of Zhan Zhao?"

Ma Xun remained calm and let Ye Quan do whatever he wanted.

Isn’t the answer to this question clear?

"Xiaolong! I, I'll go find it~"

That’s right, this is a recreation of “Abbot’s Courtyard”.

Ye Quanzhen plus Xiaolong, this scene...

By then, there will definitely be a lot of gags in our drama, not to mention the ratings!

This project is becoming more and more exciting.

……

With the help of Huang Bo's incident, Ma Xun found a direction.

For the role of Qianniu, just look for one who is similar to Huang Bo!

Moreover, Ma Xun also thought of a good "work arrangement" plan.

"Young Justice Bao" must indeed be brought forward, we must do this project first.

Now that we have two more helpers and there are no problems with the script, we need to find a director to take over.

From preparation to filming, it will take at least one or two months.

By this time, Fatty Wang should have completed his work on The Legend of the Condor Heroes.

Even if it is not completed, Ma Xun will just do it himself.

And this preparatory work itself can be linked to "My Sassy Girl".

There's nothing wrong with preparing together.

"My Sassy Girl" is a modern drama, so there is no need for civil engineering projects.

This saves a lot of cost and time.

So calculated.

Ma Xun filmed "Shao Bao" for a while, and then Fatty Wang came over after finishing "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". After that, Ma Xun could directly join the crew to film "My Sassy Girl".

Hey, if you think about it carefully, it’s not a delay at all!

However, Ma Xun will probably have to focus more on filming this time.

Then think about the business side of things.

Many copyrights have actually been sold.

It would be nice to shoot a movie during this time.

Ok, deal!
Therefore, Ma Xun’s next focus was on selecting actors.

"Shao Bao" is actually almost done, Gongsun Ce has even been decided.

Ma Xun knew everything about the rest, like Bao Zheng's mother and the Eighth Prince.

Let’s focus on “My Sassy Girl”.

In addition, I have to call Fatty Wang.

But unexpectedly, this guy mentioned a movie first.

"Boss, 'First Contact' is about to be released."

"Ah? Are you planning to hit the Lunar New Year box office?"

"This film has been favored by the Korean leader."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true."

You know what, this news is quite interesting.

In the movie "First Contact" shot by Fatty Wang, Shan Ji plays a gangster.

To be honest, his acting is actually pretty good, but he is quite old, and he is really stereotyped by the image of "Mountain Chicken".

When audiences from mainland China see him, they basically think of Zhao Shanhe, the pheasant.

But now, Fatty Wang has replaced the heroine with Yan Danchen.

She was arranged by Ma Xun.

I should say this combination... feels quite average.

There is a big gap between men and women.

The character Pi Zi Cai in the book is the kind of male protagonist who is particularly introverted and reserved.

The heroine...actually there is a scene that is very impressive.

It's the part where the heroine sprays perfume.

Ma Xun can be sure that before this scene, most young guys in mainland China didn't know how to spray perfume.

Even many girls probably don’t know it.

That is to say, Dancing Lightly sprays the perfume into the air first, and then she walks through the perfume mist that is still floating in the air.

This is really good.

But when Ma Xun finished reading it, he found out that all his classmates didn't know about it.

Actually, it is normal. After all, perfume is something that we Chinese rarely use. This thing was invented to cover up the smell of white skin.

If Yan Danchen can perform well in this scene... then Ma Xun will have a chance to make a splash.

To put it simply, by taking advantage of the popularity of this movie, we can create some hype for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Yan Danchen played Hua Zheng.

We'll have a joint effort then and post it online.

Although, our domestic Internet is still in its infancy.

But several portals are developing very fast.

Xinglang, 163, etc. all claim that their users have exceeded 2000 million.

This number can really shock foreigners.

Even though the United States developed the Internet early, it is rare to find such a large number of users on a website there now.

Therefore, these domestic websites are now saying that they plan to go public in the United States.

Ma Xun knew that it would be next year... he would do another wave then.

Now we can use the Internet to carry out a coordinated publicity campaign.

very good.

What Fatty Wang meant on the phone was that he hoped the big boss could help him out a little.

Ma Xun was very straightforward and gave an idea directly.

“The previous talent show was very well done, and now that it’s about to be released, all kinds of behind-the-scenes footage are being posted online.

You have to understand that this is an online novel, and the IP's foundation is on the internet, so you must first consolidate the internet as a foundation."

When Fatty Wang heard this, he felt as if he had suddenly realized something.

"Boss, it's high!"

In fact, Ma Xun's case is a typical example of talking big but not delivering.

Anyway, it’s not my movie, so why should I care whether you live or die?

It's fine if you just help me come up with some ideas, after all, Fatty Wang, you can be said to be my man now.

Help me film.

After that, naturally, we talked about the issue of filming "Young Justice Bao".

"Don't worry, sir!"

Fatty Wang is quite capable.

Ma Xun also asked him to help find some roles.

Bao Zheng’s mother, right?

So good.

After the call, Ma Xun planned to go see the actors.

But I didn't expect to receive an unexpected call.

“I’ve finished filming that scene.”

“Just finish the shooting.”

"You, don't go too far!"

"So what do you want? How would I know if you don't tell me?"

"Ma Xun, you're going too far!"

"Will you tell me or not? If not, I'll hang up."

"I, I want you to...fuck me!"

Xu Qing, her role as the eldest lady has finally come to an end.

Have you just come out of the world of "Swordsman" and are planning to let yourself go?
Then let her fly!
……

"My Sassy Girl?"

Huang Bo still received the invitation, and he felt that this audition opportunity was very strange.

But this is an opportunity after all.

In fact, as for Huang Bo now, although he doesn’t look that good, he has a girlfriend.

"What does barbaric mean?"

"What else can it mean?"

"hey-hey……"

"Why are you asking me?"

"No, just ask."

"Just wait, I'm going to get wild and show you!"

They have a really good relationship.

Regardless of success or failure, this audition must be given.

In fact, he has already filmed several dramas, including "Get on the Bus and Let's Go".

The tall director kept saying that it would be broadcast soon, it would be broadcast soon.

But it hasn’t been broadcast yet.

Huang Bo felt a little uncomfortable, but he could only endure it.

Better grab this opportunity!
Just like that, Huang Bo came for the audition.

But when he got there and saw... Wow!
Why are they all crooked and misshapen?
Ugly men holding a meeting?

Huang Bo had never seen such a scene before. The key point was that it was clearly about the male protagonist.

I'm afraid our movie is of a rather strange type.

Just as I was thinking about it, a buddy came over there.

"I think I've seen you before."

"Yes, I passed the Beijing Film Academy exam."

Huang Bo really tried to get into Beijing Film Academy for several years, but unfortunately he never succeeded.

And the person in front of me passed the exam in one try.

But when it comes to looks...it's not certain who's the better of them.

"Huang Haibo."

"Oh! Your last name is Huang too. My name is Huang Bo."

Wow, he’s actually from the same family!

Huang Haibo is here too, he is from the class of 97 at Beijing Film Academy.

There was another classmate in the class whose surname was Huang, but she seemed to want to have a stage name, something like Haiqing.

I just heard her mention it, and didn't ask any other questions.

In fact, this class is now facing the problem of finding employment after graduation.

Now they are in their third year of college, it would be abnormal if they didn't go out to film.

But it’s really hard to find a crew.

It is said that Brother Xiao Ming from Class 96 did not dare to ask for money for his first film.

However, now I heard that he has been selected for a major TV series.

Very enviable.

Huang Haibo doesn't know yet that Brother Xiao Ming is about to be stabbed in the back.

But to be honest, Huang Haibo is also a child star.

He has indeed been acting for many years.

So, when I took the entrance exam for Beijing Film Academy, even though I wasn’t good-looking, I had acting skills.

Huang Bo is not as good as him in this respect.

A hero doesn’t brag about past achievements, let’s focus on this audition.

Just then, someone came out of the audition room.

For auditions, almost all you need is a room.

There might even be a small camera inside, or the creative team might be watching it themselves.

But this time...

A very special looking...ugly man came out.

Juxingmao.

With tears in my eyes.

Huang Bo and Huang Haibo were very surprised when they saw it.

The first thing that came to my mind was: Is he here too?
The second thing that came to my mind was: Why was she crying during the audition?

Then the next thing that came to mind was: What about us?
The two of them immediately became nervous!
Coincidentally, they are the next two to come.

This is equivalent to an open audition, with five or six people in a group auditioning at a time.

After Huang Haibo and Huang Bo went in...

"Hello, I am the director of this play, Ma Bangde, and this is my assistant, Ms. Ye Quanzhen."

"Hello everyone."

Ma Bangde and Ye Quanzhen?
They are all legendary figures.

But wait, why is there a dummy here?

This is actually not a dummy, but a cardboard figure that is one-to-one with Bingbing.

It's one of her advertising endorsements.

Bingbing is currently filming a movie and has some endorsements to do, so she is quite busy.

Even though she only played supporting roles, she took on a lot of business opportunities.

But at this moment, director Ma Bangde said:
"You all stand next to this cardboard man."

In an instant, Huang Bo and Huang Haibo both understood why Ju Xingmao was crying.

Bingbing is really not short, this cardboard figure is about one to one.

But if this is the case...

"She is the heroine?"

"Yes."

Huang Bo and Huang Haibo were both stunned.

How can we act with such a beautiful woman?
This must be a comedy!

Ma Xun was getting impatient, "Hurry up!"

The audition is actually very simple. It is just to let these ugly men stand together with a cardboard figure of Bingbing.

It just depends on your feeling!
Choose whichever feels good.

To be honest, as soon as Huang Haibo appeared.

Ma Xun thought that this guy was not bad!

Ugly, but slightly better than Huang Bo.

It also meets the requirements of our play.

In fact, they are only two years apart in age.

Then the problem is coming.

Huang Bo and Huang Haibo, who should I choose?
