Even after being reborn, you're still in the entertainment industry?

Chapter 145 How about playing King Zhou?
On Zhang Yimou's side, Sheng Yunxuan actually got an audition opportunity. If he wants to really get this role, he has to pass the audition.

After all, it's a director of Zhang Yimou's caliber, with such a huge investment, and other people may also know like Sheng Yunxuan that this is a bad movie.

Therefore, all the actors in the circle are trying their best to appear in this movie, and the competition is extremely fierce.

Even though his role in the movie is the third male prince, who is cowardly, hesitant and unlikable, it still attracted talented young actors like Liu Ye to audition.

When Sheng Yunxuan came out of the audition room, he happened to run into Liu Ye. The two nodded and said hello to each other, which was just a greeting, but there was not much other communication.

Actually, although the two people's circles didn't overlap much, Liu Ye had already heard a lot about Sheng Yunxuan, and even knew about Sheng Yunxuan and Li Xiaoran.

Because Liu Ye had been in a relationship with Li Xiaoran's ex-best friend for six years, he was naturally familiar with Li Xiaoran.

It's just that Sheng Yunxuan had forced Li Xiaoran to cut off contact with that best friend, and there was already a rift between Liu Ye and her. It wouldn't be long before they broke up...

As soon as Sheng Yunxuan came out of the audition room, Qin Qianrong, who had been waiting outside, hurried over and asked with concern:
"How about it?"

Sheng Yunxuan didn't care much about this and said casually:

"My performance was just average. I don't know if the director will be impressed."

After all, the audition couldn't trigger the simulation, and there was no simulated memory to cheat with. Sheng Yunxuan's acting skills were only average, far from being eye-catching.

So even if I haven't seen Liu Ye's audition in person, compared to actors like him who are famous for their acting skills, his performance is definitely not good enough.

However, Sheng Yunxuan didn't care about it. He was not very interested in this movie.

Qin Qianrong didn't know what Sheng Yunxuan was thinking, and at this moment he hurriedly comforted him:

"It's okay. It's no big deal if we don't pass the audition. At worst, we can just go back to filming the TV series and wait for the next opportunity."

Having said that, Qin Qianrong continued:

"By the way, didn't you say before that you were interested in the Conferred Gods project that's being prepared?"

When Sheng Yunxuan heard about the Investiture of the Gods project being prepared this year, he knew it was the Investiture of the Gods: Fengming Qishan, the one in which Fan Binbin played Daji.

Although the reviews are not high, in fact, putting aside various prejudices, this "Investiture of the Gods" can even be said to be the most authentic one. Sheng Yunxuan is a little interested in it!

"They are quite willing, but let me take a look. There is a role that suits your image, King Wu Jifa, but he has too few scenes!" Qin Qianrong continued.

Since he had previously left a deep impression on the public with his role as "Emperor Li Shimin of Qin", both Qin Qianrong and the production team subconsciously thought of letting Sheng Yunxuan play the role of King Wu Jifa.

But Jifa's role in this drama is pitifully small, and he only appears a few times in the early stages.

The protagonist of this part of the Investiture of the Gods is King Zhou, and it was not until the second part, "King Wu Conquers King Zhou", that Ji Fa became the protagonist...

So this role is of a kind that is neither tasty nor worth throwing away.

Qin Qianrong didn't want to accept it. After all, Sheng Yunxuan had reached the point where he needed to pay attention to his status.

It would be a bit unreasonable to take the initiative to work for someone at this time, and the company might not even be willing to do so...

Sheng Yunxuan himself had no interest in the role of Ji Fa. After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly had an idea and asked:

"Can I play King Zhou?"

Since his debut, Sheng Yunxuan has rarely played a major villain.

The only big villain "Gu Xichao" was so handsome in appearance, and the character setting was changed to be very pitiful, which made the audience feel regretful... Sheng Yunxuan really wanted to experience simulating a villain, and a villain like King Zhou who has been passed down through the ages.

"King Zhou?"

Qin Qianrong was a little surprised. She didn't expect Sheng Yunxuan to want to play "King Zhou".

To be honest, probably because of the influence of many novels, storytelling, film and television dramas and cartoons, Qin Qianrong has always felt that "King Zhou" should be a greasy, lustful, tyrannical and cruel middle-aged uncle.

Looking at the handsome, gentle and approachable Sheng Yunxuan in front of him, Qin Qianrong's mind was twitching. She really couldn't imagine him playing King Zhou...

Facing Qin Qianrong's unimaginable strange expression, Sheng Yunxuan blinked and said:
“I want to challenge myself!”

Mainly, he also wanted to know if using the golden finger to simulate the characters of this mythological drama could produce anything good...

Qin Qianrong didn't think much about it. After all, Sheng Yunxuan's usual performance in the crew really made him look like a drama addict.

There is nothing wrong with a drama fanatic wanting to expand his acting range!
Seeing Sheng Yunxuan's insistence, Qin Qianrong thought for a moment and nodded:
"Okay, then I'll go get in touch!"

"But the most important thing right now is to see the audition results. If the audition is unsuccessful, we can still try again with the "Night Banquet" crew..."

……

Sheng Yunxuan and Qin Qianrong went back first and waited for the crew to notify them of the audition results.

When casting for a large crew like this, there are many aspects to consider.

At this time, the film director Zhang Yimou was obviously hesitant.

The final two candidates are Sheng Yunxuan and Liu Ye.

In terms of fame, Sheng Yunxuan, which is currently in the limelight, is definitely more well-known.

After all, society these days encourages entrepreneurship and madly worships those successful people in business.

Sheng Yunxuan's successful business venture and his overnight wealth have created an Internet legend, but even those who do not pay attention to the entertainment industry regard him as an idol!

If you ask anyone on the street now, he may not be able to tell you what specific works Sheng Yunxuan has performed.

But as long as Sheng Yunxuan's name is mentioned, almost everyone knows him!
This level can no longer be described by fame, it should be called "national popularity"!
In addition, Sheng Yunxuan has a superior image and may be more attractive to young audiences.

The only thing Liu Ye can do better than Sheng Yunxuan is his acting skills.

But Zhang Yimou has been making commercial blockbusters in recent years, and the actors' acting skills are no longer his priority.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have invited Jay Chou to make a movie this time...

After weighing the pros and cons, Lao Mouzi finally made up his mind.

Just use Sheng Yunxuan!

In fact, when it comes to acting skills, Sheng Yunxuan has always had a good reputation in the circle.

Perhaps Sheng Yunxuan had just acted in too many TV dramas, so he wasn't quite used to the big screen. With a little training, he'd be able to perform...
