First Actor [Rebirth]

After a period of warm-up, the large-scale talent show "Star of Huaguo Dream" co-produced by Boya and a well-known local TV station entered the audition stage.

Huadu, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Changsha, Shencheng and the Internet (Overseas) competition area, the seven competition areas are fully opened.Contestants must stand out from the [-] applicants and enter the finals.

The videos of the audition stage are updated synchronously on the online video websites of Boya and TV stations.Some players have even entered the public eye at this time, quickly gaining popularity.

While the dream star's audition was in full swing, Lu Yang's itinerary seemed much quieter.

Accompanied by his agent Wang Youlan, he formally entered the group.

Among the companions were the driver Liu Xiangjie and Boya's assistant Song Yao arranged for Lu Yang.

The new play directed by Lu Wenlue is a TV series adapted from the novel "Chasing" by the writer Chi Tianxiang. The story takes place during the Anti-Japanese War and the beginning of the establishment of the Wang Puppet Government.

The male protagonist Fang Rui, on the surface, is a young and promising Nanyang wealthy businessman and a military agent, but in fact he is a member of the underground party of the Communist Party of China.

The heroine Wu Lingxue is the only daughter of the wealthy Wu family in Shanghai. She has a lively and outgoing personality. She has received a new type of education and advocates freedom and equality. Her father, Wu Zhanlong, is a red capitalist who secretly helps the Communist Party. Wu Lingxue was forced to grow up, and joined Fang Rui in underground work, fighting side by side.

The second male number played by Lu Yang is Jiang Tianzong, the youngest son of the Jiang family with Wu Lingxue. His cousin Jiang Tianfu is the secretary-general of the Shencheng City Government and a senior military official.

"Chasing" tells the story of people with different identities in this special historical period. Due to various reasons, the life trajectory of people has undergone a huge turning point at the same time, resulting in love-hate encounters, contradictions, conflicts, and stories of life and death.

The whole series will be filmed in Shanghai, Jiaxing, Hengchi and Nanjing, and the shooting time is expected to be three months.

After a very low-key opening ceremony, the crew officially entered the shooting stage. There was no scene for Lu Yang in the first two days, but he decided to stay to observe and study.

Director Lu Wenlue and Director Wu Zhuping have completely different personalities.

He is always smiling, very friendly and kind. On the surface, he is not at all like a TV director who always shoots war themes, but rather like a Maitreya Buddha who shoots comedies.

Lu Wenlue didn't notice Lu Yang at first, but was reminded by the assistant director during the interval, and only then did he see the boy standing obediently in the distance.He thought of something, so he waved and called Lu Yang over.

"Xiao Lu, you stand so far away, you can't see anything, come on, move a stool, and look beside us."

Not only the surrounding staff, but even Lu Yang himself was flattered!

In fact, only Lu Wenlue knew it in his heart - he wanted Lu Yang to get into the role as soon as possible by participating in other people's filming, into the role of an actor.

……

When director Wu, a classmate and good friend, recommended Lu Yang to him, Lu Wenlue almost didn't hesitate, and immediately decided to use this newcomer who only had one commercial shooting experience.

There is no other reason, but pure trust in Director Wu's vision.

But at the beginning, neither the producer nor director Lu planned to directly hand over such an important role as the second male lead to Lu Yang.

With the broadcast of Boya's public service advertisement, the situation has changed.

Just as He Ping expected, with the red war films and spy films springing up in front of the audience, traditional dramas and war-themed film and television works are facing great pressure and tests.

In order to stand out among the huge competitors, in addition to the script with novel content and strict logic, a powerful shooting team and production team, and solid publicity before and after, the producer is also considering more effective ways to Attract the attention of more viewers.

Therefore, it is no longer uncommon to use popular actors as the leading actors to quickly drive traffic through the fan effect.

This time "Chasing" played by Tan Jingchuan, the male lead, and Yang Si, who played the female lead. The leading actress of Ledu Films in film and television dramas.

Especially Tan Jingchuan, with more than 5000 million Weibo fans, although he rarely appears in big-screen works, he definitely occupies an important position in the Huaguo film and television industry.

Originally, when it came to the choice of the second male lead, the original idea of ​​the producer was to directly choose a popular idol—young and handsome, who would be eye-catching.

But director Lu Wenlue also has his own insistence, and he doesn't want "Chasing" to become that kind of idol drama in the cloak of a spy movie.

He's not saying that idols don't have acting skills, but he's just worried that the personal marks of idols are too obvious, which will easily make the audience's focus shift.

At this time, Lu Yang recommended by Director Wu came into his sight.

The male second in the play is a well-educated young man from a family background. He should not only have the vigor, impulsiveness, and ignorance of youth, but also the nobility, conceit, and maturity born of family and experience.

Lu Wenlue needs a second male who can naturally express this complex temperament.

And Lu Yang's cleanliness, handsomeness, and a unique temperament between youth and adult made Lu Wenlue exclaim when he saw the commercial clip for the first time—maybe this boy can become "Jiang Tianzong"!

When Director Lu proposed to let Lu Yang play the male lead, the producers still had some doubts, and Boya's Wei Hexi was also fighting for the role, so they were not optimistic about Lu Yang.

They think that Lu Yang's appearance and temperament are fine, but he has too little experience and not many fans.

You know, for the sake of the final show of the drama, apart from the male and female protagonists in "Chasing", the other important roles are played by well-known veteran actors in the industry.

Tan Jingchuan and Yang Si are "tested" and will not be stage-frightened, but as a newcomer, Lu Yang, is there a way to play with these actors on the same stage without being suppressed by the opponent's aura?

If Lu Yang is a famous idol, there will naturally be true fans to "protect" him, but if a newcomer without a mass base does not perform well, he will receive overwhelming criticism and accusations.

This is also a great risk for Lu Yang himself.

Later, Lu Yang's performance in the audition finally dispelled some of the doubts of the producers, and gave Lu Wenlue more confidence. He decided to "□□" Lu Yang, and he must not be in the shoes of his old friend Wu Zhuoping, the producers and the audience. In front of him, he ruined his reputation!

……

Thinking of this, Lu Wenlue pointed to the clip just shot on the monitor, and said to Lu Yang: "Just now you saw the scene where Wu Lingxue and Wu Zhanlong had a conversation. Do you have any thoughts?"

Tang Tongming, who plays Wu Zhanlong, is an old actor whom Lu Yang respects very much. It turned out that Lu Yang was fortunate to have seen Tang Tongming act when he was in Hengchi.

What Director Lu asked Lu Yang to express his opinion was a very simple father-daughter relationship. Wu Zhanlong bought expensive jewelry for his daughter and the father-daughter dialogue to lead out the prom scene where the hero and heroine meet for the first time.

Lu Yang really didn't see clearly when watching from a distance, but now on the monitor screen, he can only see the details through close-up shots, and then he has to admire the old actor's ability to handle the changes in expression.

During the conversation between father and daughter, Wu Lingxue mentioned that a girl in her class was detained because of her uncle's radical remarks. The family members were worried about being implicated, and they would return to their ancestral home in the near future.

The best classmates in the class were very reluctant and wanted to hold a party for her, but the time determined by the classmates conflicted with the dance. Wu Lingxue reported to her father that she had to go to the classmate's party first.

At this time, Wu Zhanlong had actually been persuaded by the underground members of the Communist Party of China, and gradually turned into a red capitalist, and secretly supported their work.

When he heard that Wu Lingxue's classmates were affected by his uncle's inappropriate remarks, and when he thought about what he was doing now, he couldn't help feeling deeply worried.

So when Wu Lingxue looked down at the jewelry she was going to wear at the prom, Wu Zhanlong frowned, with a trace of complicated emotions on his face.

There is confusion, hesitation, and even regret...

This expression is fleeting, but it clearly shows that a national capitalist has both patriotism and selfishness of worrying about the safety of his family because of his father's status.

It's obviously just a simple plot, focusing on expressing Wu's father's doting and pampering on his precious daughter, and leading to important plots that affect the development of the hero and heroine, but because of Tang Tongming's interpretation, it has a different depth.

At this time, Lu Yang's heart was surging, he couldn't wait to be in the same story with such seniors, and act out his own Jiang Tianzong!

And when Lu Yang expressed his understanding, Director Lu was both surprised and delighted!
