The straight man in the entertainment circle

Chapter 528

No one expected that director Zhang Dasong, who originally only cast two supporting roles, would directly cast the male and female protagonists in this show!

In this show, except for Lin Li, a somewhat popular star who ended up halfway through the show, everyone else is either a has-been actor or a brand new actor.

In industry terms, no matter how popular the show is, this group of actors cannot support the box office of a movie.

This is why none of the four directors left one male and one female to this show.

Guo Xiaoshan's role as the lead actor is rather special, because his role as the lead actor may be less than that of the lead actor, but it just sounds nicer.

Even ordinary directors would not choose actors from the show to play leading roles, let alone a great director like Zhang Dashong.

For a director like Zhang Dashong, when a new movie is just being prepared and the script is not even finalized, countless people flock to it.

Many people still have capital backgrounds and are actors designated or highly praised by some investors.

The male lead of Zhang Dasong's new movie this time was previously rumored to have been selected by the company's highly touted A-list actor Wen Qinglin.

No one expected that Zhang Dasong would give the male lead to Lin Li!

Although the previous revelations are not known to be true or not, Wen Qinglin is a newcomer highly favored by Zhang Dashong's Huaying Film and Television Company. It is definitely true that he wants to compete for Zhang Dashong as the male lead, and it is also a close call.

This is why a great director like Zhang Dasong can choose the actors he wants so arbitrarily. If it were an ordinary director, he might not be able to change the actors if he wanted to, because neither the company boss nor the investors would agree easily.

But who told him to be Zhang Dasong? He has the privilege to skip the company and use his favorite actors at will!

On the show, Zhang Dasong announced the results lightly, but in fact, under the iceberg, his team worked hard to mediate on this matter, which led to today's results.

Thinking of Lin Li and Chen Qingqing starring in Zhang Dasong's movie, everyone was looking forward to it.

The audience cheered continuously, cheering for life winners like Lin Li and Chen Qingqing!

"Congratulations to Lin Li, my God, there are so many surprises tonight. I can't wait to watch Director Zhang's new movie," Liu Chun said.

"I'm a little jealous." Yi Zhuo said.

"Let's invite Lin Li to come on stage and say a few words," Liu Chun said.

The audience applauded, and Lin Li had no choice but to walk onto the stage.

"Lin Li, do you have anything to say at this moment?" Liu Chun asked.

Lin Li took the microphone handed over by Chen Qingqing, thought for a moment and said, "Thank you, Director Zhang. I always thought that Director Zhang didn't like me very much, because I seemed to have opposed Director Zhang before, and later I defeated Director Zhang in Director Zhang's team." His job was taken away."

The scene was filled with laughter. When Chen Qingqing and Ge Erdan competed against each other, Zhang Dasong wanted to break the rules and keep both of them.

But Lin Li objected. He felt that it was not good for Zhang Dasong to have such privileges, or that all four directors had such rights once.

In the end, Lin Li's words made Zhang Dasong take back his life. Everyone felt that Zhang Dasong would have some opinions on Lin Li.

But it turned out that Zhang Dasong was not only not angry, but also looked at Lin Li with admiration because of it.

Zhang Dasong said with a smile: "You are the celebrity who has least given me face in so many years."

The whole audience burst into laughter.

"I learned a lot of directing skills and knowledge from Director Zhang. I will apply what I have learned and try to make a good enough movie." Lin Li said sincerely.

Zhang Dashong smiled and said: "We will add the contact information later. If you need any help in future shooting, you can ask me for advice."

The whole place was excited again, as if Zhang Dasong was recruiting a disciple.

Lin Li nodded and said, "Okay, but...well...I...have to wait until the movie is finished before I can act in your role..."

The audience laughed loudly, Lin Li and Chen Qingqing were really in tune.

Zhang Dasong smiled and said: "I can wait for you for three months. Anyway, you have poached the heroine of my drama, so I'll just wait together."

The audience laughed at Zhang Dasong's generosity and humor.

Zhang Dasong participated in this show. He originally only used two supporting characters to see if there were any newcomers worth cultivating, but soon he discovered the treasure of Chen Qingqing.

Chen Qingqing is excellent whether she is playing a goddess, a madwoman, an old man or an innocent girl, with almost no weaknesses.

At first, Zhang Dasong just thought that Chen Qingqing's acting skills would definitely be of great use in the future, but after watching the childhood sweethearts scene between Chen Qingqing and Lin Li, Zhang Dasong thought about it and felt that Chen Qingqing could already be of great use.

Coupled with Chen Qingqing's increasingly stable acting skills and the unanimous praise from Li Tong and other people around him, Zhang Dasong decided to give Chen Qingqing the female lead in his play.

Originally, Zhang Dasong thought that Chen Qingqing was the biggest surprise he discovered in this program, but as the program progressed, Zhang Dasong discovered that Lin Li was the one.

With Zhang Dashong's artistic aesthetics, he completely looked down on Guo Xiaoshan's directorial skills, but he felt that it didn't matter if both refined and popular tastes were appreciated.

But in this show, director Guo Xiaoshan's selection of candidates and scripts made Zhang Dashong disappointed.

Zhang Dasong maintains his own identity and mainly encourages young people like this.

At this time, Lin Li appeared on the show. When Lin Li was on the celebrity observation team, he said all the things that Zhang Dasong wanted to say but couldn't express due to his own identity. Lin Li simply became an outlet for his suppressed emotions!

Although Zhang Dasong didn't show it much, he still looked up to Lin Li with admiration in his heart.

Later, Lin Li joined the actor camp, and Zhang Dasong discovered that this kid's acting talent was amazing, and he could act like anything.

What's even more terrifying is that Lin Li's understanding and analysis of the script is no worse than his own. Lin Li even said that actors should not mark their own lines in the script book, because this will make it difficult for the actor to pay attention to his opponent's lines. In this case, Zhang Da I had never paid attention to this before, but after hearing it, I very much agreed with it.

It can be said that Lin Li has surpassed him in some aspects!

Despite Zhang Dasong's outstanding status now, in the entertainment industry, even if he doesn't like some things, he will mostly not say anything about it, because sometimes the interests involved are too complicated, and after a few rounds, there are still acquaintances.

As a result, Zhang Dasong rarely expressed his true inner thoughts. Even if he couldn't help but say it, he would say it very tactfully and to the point.

Zhang Dasong looked at Lin Li with envy, because Lin Li lived the way he wanted to live.

Having been trained by society and immersed in the circle, Zhang Dasong feels that it is very rare that he has always maintained his artistic nobility and pursuit.

But after meeting Lin Li, Zhang Dasong realized that not only could he maintain his original intention in art, but he could also be a good person in life!

Zhang Dashong produced Li Tong, Zhou Chunxia, Liu Ci and others. These are all top-notch actresses in the circle, but they are all women.

Although Zhang Dasong has become famous and does not need to prove anything, deep down in his heart, he still hopes that he can produce a male movie star who is as good as Li Tong.

The appearance of Lin Li gave Zhang Dasong hope.

Although capital is difficult to secure, the most important thing for investors is the final box office return. Lin Li and Chen Qingqing's Royal CP has been hotly speculated on the Internet, and the two co-starred in Zhang Dasong's movie, so they will definitely not have to worry about the topic.

And at this time, although Lin Li's background is not as good as that of some first-line stars, he is definitely the topic king and the popularity king.

Zhang Dasong insisted on using Lin Li, and the investors felt that there was no need to be unhappy with Zhang Dasong over this matter, so they all agreed.

"That Ren Shixiu is the role originally planned by Director Zhang, right?" Liu Chun asked.

Zhang Dasong said: "Yes, but we will add some scenes to her role as appropriate. She is a relatively important supporting role."

Ren Shixiu was also very happy after hearing this. In any case, she had the opportunity to participate in the play directed by Zhang Dasong.

"Okay, then we once again congratulate Lin Li, Chen Qingqing and Ren Shixiu, and thank Director Zhang for leaving such an important role in our program. On behalf of the program team, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks."

Liu Chun and Yi Zhuo bowed, and the audience burst into applause.

Liu Chun stood up and said, "Now, please leave the stage and take a rest. Lin Li will wait a moment."

Zhang Dasong, Li Tong and Chen Qingqing left the stage, leaving Lin Li alone.

"All the results of our program today have been announced." Liu Chun said.

"Yes." Yi Zhuo said.

"But our show isn't over yet."

"right."

"Because today is a special day, not only the finals of our program, but also a holiday for all mothers in the world. Here, after communicating with Lin Li, our program team decided that Lin Li will sing a song for his mother as a gift. The end of our show today.”

Yi Zhuo said: "It's an original song, sung for the first time!"

Everyone in the audience did not expect that there would be such a repertoire tonight, and they all stood up and cheered.

There are really too many surprises tonight!

At this time, Wang Tuo and others had already begun to prepare for the stage.

"Lin Li, do you have anything to say about the last song?" Liu Chun asked.

Lin Li picked up the phone and looked at his mother in the audience.

"Well... thank you mother for all your hard work. I think there may be many people like me. They are very grateful to their parents and love you very much, but they rarely say it out loud. But after thinking about it, I think I can sing it. So...just listen to me singing."

Most of the people present were young people. After the rebellious period, they began to gradually understand the difficulties of their parents. And on this special day, even if they usually complained about their parents, they had long since disappeared.

Hearing Lin Li's words, everyone felt that he spoke from the bottom of their hearts and responded with warm applause.

"Okay, let's hand over the stage to Lin Li and listen to Lin Li's new song."

After Liu Chun finished speaking, he looked at Yi Zhuo, and then Yi Zhuo and Liu Chun shouted in unison: "I really love you!"

After Liu Chun and Yi Zhuo finished speaking, they walked off the stage hand in hand.

Guitarist Ge Yingjun and bassist Fang Qichao from Lin Li's band walked up carrying guitars and basses on their backs and stood beside Lin Li.

Ge Yingjun brought Lin Li an electric guitar, and backing singer Zhang Haiyan brought an upright microphone for Lin Li.

Then, everyone returned to their seats, and the whole place became quiet.

Lin Li nodded to Wang Tuo, and then Lin Li swept his fingers, and the sharp, distorted electric guitar suddenly sounded. Not only did the sound not cause any discomfort when it entered the ears, it was also extremely affectionate and passionate.

Acoustic guitar, bass, and drums soon follow, and the underlying layer silently surges, making people feel inexplicably serious and heavy.

Lin Li played for a while, then walked towards the microphone and spoke in a hoarse voice:

An irreconcilable opponent

Bring warmth always behind your back

Even if you are verbose, always pay attention

Don’t know how to cherish and feel too guilty

…………

To everyone's surprise, Lin Li actually sang in Cantonese. However, in "The Masked Singer", everyone already knew that Lin Li was proficient in Cantonese, so it was only a slight surprise and not a surprise.

Not many people present could understand Cantonese. They vaguely heard a few words, "a pair of opponents", "warmth" and "don't understand".

There were people present who could understand Cantonese, and they looked obsessed.

The lyrics are so realistic!

Lin Li's voice continued to sing a few lines, with only the acoustic guitar and dotted keyboard sounds creating a soothing atmosphere. The rhythm of the keyboard was like the ticking of spring breeze and rain, moistening things silently. Mom's ordinary, simple, and low-key characteristics were presented by the music. come out.

Then the accompaniment moved up a scale, and the bass and drums rejoined one after another, raising the mood of gratitude in a timely manner.

Lin Li continued to sing:

What a warm look you have

Teach me to look at the road ahead with perseverance

Told me not to give up when I fall

I can't explain how I can repay my kindness.

Love is infinite

Please allow me to say that I really love you

…………

This section is relatively simple and can still be understood by young people who have been influenced by Cantonese movies and TV series since childhood.

Lin Li's singing is extremely beautiful and full of sincerity. It is not the kind of shallow and beautiful, but smooth and comfortable.

There is a strong feeling of gratitude and the greatness of his mother everywhere in the song, and Lin Li sings it very naturally.

…………

Still remember the warm rival

Always take care of me and never change

The ideal is finally here today

Share the glory and hope to do it

…………

Then there is a long guitar solo, which seems to contain many things that a child wants to say to his mother, some words that are not easy to say out loud at ordinary times, including apologies, remorse, gratitude, and reflections.

The squealing electric guitar tone highlights the complex and exciting mood of the junior, which is very easy to affect the listener.

Then the climax of the whole song came, and the backing vocals hummed at the same time:

What a warm look you have

Teach me to look at the road ahead with perseverance

Told me not to give up when I fall

I can't explain how I can repay my kindness.

Love is infinite

Please allow me to say that I really love you

…………

In the backing vocals, Lin Li followed their voices and started humming and roaring affectionately. Even if he couldn't understand the lyrics, he could still hear the gratitude to his mother in the song.

Many girls couldn't help but shed tears and even wanted to call their mothers right away to tell them that they really love you!

The song also came to an end at this time, and the accompaniment gradually weakened.

The voices of Lin Li and his backing singers also seemed distant and ethereal:

What a warm look you have

Oh~

Teach me to look at the road ahead with perseverance

Told me not to give up when I fall

Oh~

I can't explain how I can repay my kindness.

Oh~

Love is infinite

Please allow me to say that I really love you
