My singer girlfriend is super fierce

After reading the script of "Burning Sun", Luo Zhaoliang was filled with great surprise and anticipation.

For actors, in most cases it is not that they cannot tell the quality of the script or the role, but that in most cases they have no choice. They can't just not act if the story is not good enough, and it is not their turn to be picky.

So, it is very difficult for an actor to come across a good script.

It is even more difficult to come across a good script and get a good role with excellent character development and that suits you.

In Luo Zhaoliang's more than 20-year acting career, he only encountered such an opportunity once.

Luo Zhaoliang starred in "The Bourne Legacy" when he was 37 years old. It was for this work that he won the only title of "Best Actor".

However, after reading the script of "The Sun Also Rises", Luo Zhaoliang seemed to have found the long-lost feeling of excitement with accelerated heartbeat when he first got the script of "The Bourne Legacy".

"The Burning Sun" mainly tells the story of three sworn brothers with different identities who raise an orphan together and live a low-key life, but by coincidence they are involved in a long-standing major case.

This film has a "three-protagonist" design, and most of the story revolves around two of the three brothers - Xin Xiaofeng, Yang Zidao, and police captain Yi Guchun.

Luo Zhaoliang got the role of taxi driver "Yang Zidao".

Ye Zhiqiu also has his own considerations on this.

In the previous life, the suspense crime film "Burning Sun" was adapted from the novel "Sunspots" by the famous writer Xu Yi Gua. It was directed by Cao Baoping and starred Deng Chao, Duan Yihong and Guo Tao.

At that time, as soon as the film was released, it topped the Chinese box office list of the same period, and later won many awards and received widespread acclaim.

In Ye Zhiqiu's mind, there are many box office hit scripts, including the "Detective Chinatown 2", "Monster Hunt 2" and other series that have not yet been filmed.

But he chose "The Sun Also Rises" with the intention of winning an award.

After all, he had previously achieved the achievements of "billion-dollar screenwriter" and "billion-dollar director", and even helped Huang Zhengmin and Wang Qiang achieve the title of "Best Actor".

But for Ye Zhiqiu himself, as an actor, he actually doesn't have many honors.

From "Xu Changqing" in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", to the patient "Lü Shouyi" in "Dying to Survive", and the unscrupulous lawyer "Pan Xiao" in "No Man's Land", from TV series to movies, Ye Zhiqiu has left many impressive roles on the screen.

Most audiences recognize his acting skills, but compared with his achievements in music and screenwriting, his acting skills are not as outstanding.

Therefore, his main purpose in filming this work is to win an award!

In a film, an actor's performance is largely influenced by his opponent, so the choice of actors for the other two protagonists, besides Ye Zhiqiu himself, is crucial.

In fact, for the role of "Yang Zidao", Ye Zhiqiu originally wanted Huang Zhengmin to play it, but overall, there was still a bit of incompatibility.

Luo Zhaoliang is very suitable for this role in terms of image and acting skills.

Now, two of the three main actors have been confirmed, and the actor for one important role, "Yi Guchun", has not yet been determined.

......

Zhejiang Province, Film and Television City.

"Kill!!!" On the set of a costume drama, on a battlefield filled with yellow sand, two actors, armed with weapons, rode their horses and rushed towards the enemy.

In the long shot, the distance between the two sides gradually narrowed until they were face to face, and the two men waved their weapons and exchanged hand-to-hand combat.

Judging from the movements, the two actors have very good equestrian skills and their movements are highly completed.

After a fight between the two sides, the one wearing white robe and armor knocked down the one wearing black armor.

"Okay! Card!"

At this moment, the director's voice rang out from the sidelines: "Great shot! Add a close-up!"

The staff immediately got busy. The black-armored general who had just "fallen off his horse" did not really fall off. Instead, he used one hand and one foot to hang on the side of the horse. An assistant hurried forward to support him.

"Are you okay, Duan Zhu?" the director asked with concern.

This is one of the main characters, and the filming has reached the final stage. If he gets injured, it will have a huge impact on the progress.

"It's okay." Duan Zhu rubbed his swollen and sore wrist and shook his head.

Although the horse's speed was not fast, the whole set of movements was still quite dangerous. Fortunately, it was filmed smoothly.

After the white-robed general dismounted, he immediately stepped aside. He was just a stand-in, so of course the actor himself had to take the close-up shots.

On the other side, a handsome young man wearing a white robe of the same style stood up from under the parasol and walked forward to act with Duan Zhu.

This is the male protagonist of the film. According to the plot, he is going to kill the villain General Duan Zhu in the final battle.

Although the later plot was easier to shoot, the young white-robed general's martial arts moves were not up to par, so it was NGed twice before it was successfully completed.

"Okay! Finished!"

The filming was over, and following the director's words, the crew members burst into warm applause.

"Duan Zhu, thank you for your hard work." Finally, the director found Duan Zhu and said this.

He was referring to the final fight scene, where anyone with a discerning eye could see that the young actor's performance was unprofessional and somewhat of a drag.

But who made him the male lead? He was appointed by the investors, so the crew had to revolve around him. Although Duan Zhu played the second male lead and had a lot of scenes, he was just a supporting role.

Duan Zhu, 33 years old this year, graduated from the Performance Department of Beijing Film and Television Academy. He is a serious professional student. Before this film, he also had several representative works with good reputation and was well-known in the industry.

However, most of his previous works were TV dramas. Since he had just entered the film industry, it was already good enough for him to get the second male lead.

Just like his opponent actor just now, his acting skills are average, but because of his strong background and financial support, he can play the male lead. This is the reality.

Duan Zhu, who has been working in the industry for several years, is quite open-minded about this. He has always remembered a piece of teaching from his teacher in school.

"For an actor, small success can be fostered, but big success depends on luck. You can't pursue those ethereal things like 'luck,' but you have to do your job well as an actor, so that when luck finds you, you won't let it slip away because you weren't prepared."

Because of this, Duan Zhu has always been very strict with his own performances. For example, in the fighting scene just now, in theory he could have used a stand-in, and he only had to shoot the close-up.

But he still chose to do it himself because it would be more effective.

After finishing the filming and having a wrap-up banquet with the crew, Duan Zhu got into the business car waiting on the roadside.

As soon as he sat down, the agent who had been talking on the phone in the front row put down his phone, turned around, and his face showed a bit of surprise and disbelief.

"Zhu, good news..."

"What?" Duan Zhu rubbed his slightly aching wrist, which seemed to have been strained during the afternoon filming. He asked casually.

"There's a movie script offer for you to play the male lead."

The agent's tone was excited, and he even trembled a little with excitement.

"Ye Zhiqiu's play."
