Chapter 641 - What Should an Actor Have

“Brother Jin...”Yan Zhenben stood up and greeted him respectfully.

Yun Xiangxiang gave a silly smile.

“Is this how you teach newbies?”Lu Jin walked forward and raised his hand to press down on Yan Zhenben, indicating for him to sit.

Lu Jin’s assistant brought a chair over for him and placed it between Yun Xiangxiang and Yan Zhenben.

“Quick, please teach me, teacher Lu.”Yun Xiangxiang immediately winked at Yan Zhenben, trying to change the topic.

Yan Zhenben was very smart. “Sister is worried that I won’t be able to put on an imposing manner and affect the quality of the entire drama.”

Yan Zhenben’s role was the finishing touch. After all, he needed to appear and make the audience feel proud.

If in the end, Yan Zhenben’s role was too inferior to Lu Jin’s, then the audience would think that it was just so-so. After watching it, their feelings wouldn’t be able to sublimate.

“I was just chatting with director Wei.”Lu Jin sat down between the two of them. “Director Wei plans to replace your character, but you wanted to recommend it. He was too embarrassed to ask, so he wanted me to be his lobbyist.”

Yun Xiangxiang heard this and almost inaudibly sighed. She turned her head to look at Wei Shanwen, who was directing the filming in the distance. Wei Shanwen seemed to have misunderstood Lu Jin as her lobbyist. He was somewhat embarrassed as he held the script in his hand and made a “Please”gesture.

Actually, Wei Shanwen wanted to change roles, especially for a role like Yan Zhenben, who did not have many scenes. He had absolute authority.

There was no need to inform Yun Xiangxiang, let alone invite Lu Jin as a lobbyist. This was already giving Yun Xiangxiang enough face.

The most important thing was that Wei Shanwen wanted to remove Yan Zhenben. He was not ostracizing or suppressing him. He was really considering the needs of the role. Yun Xiangxiang would not disregard the big picture for personal feelings. Indeed, Yan Zhenben could not support the role now.

Because of Lu Jin’s arrival, it could not be given to the audience. The feeling of choosing him was better than choosing the role that Lu Jin played.

It could not be the finishing touch. This really could not be blamed on Wei Shanwen. However, Yun Xiangxiang believed that Wei Shanwen would definitely make other compensation to Yan Zhenben.

Yun Xiangxiang did not have any resentment towards Wei Shanwen, nor did she have the right to blame him. After all, she was the one who found Lu Jin. With this mess, the tone of the entire script changed. Even Wei Shanwen himself had deleted and changed a lot of the plot.

Originally, he wanted to portray a fairy tale style that leaned towards Europe and America. However, due to the replacement of the young actors, the tone of the Prince and princess could not go on. Lu Jin had also revised the script. Now, Wei Shanwen was more focused on the Chinese style.

He had largely changed the background into the Chinese style and characteristics. He did not cater to the foreign market, but focused on using their mysterious charm to attract foreign attention, including the later stages.

Last Night, Song Mian received a phone call saying that the production team wanted to make some modifications to the house.

The venue was big enough, and there was a lot of room for play. The entire house was close to the Chinese style.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Song Mian also sent people to personally supervise it. As long as it did not destroy the structure, they could do whatever they wanted.

At that time, Yun Xiangxiang knew that Yan Zhenben would not be able to suppress the next character. That was why she took the time to give him a warning today. That sentence just now was not to teach him how to act, but to tease him, and also to encourage him.., he would have countless opportunities in the future when he was young.

“Actually, I understand in my heart.”There was a little disappointment in Yan Zhenben’s eyes, but he accepted it calmly.

Yun Xiangxiang felt both gratified and bitter at the thought. There were actually many actors like Yan Zhenben who had not had the chance to become famous yet. If they worked hard to get an opportunity, they might lose it for various reasons.

Previously, an agent had planned to replace him. It was not easy for him to keep it. Now, because of the changes in the structure of the work, he was no longer suitable.

“What abilities do you think an actor should have?”Lu Jin suddenly asked Yan Zhenben.

Yan Zhenben did not know why Lu Jin would ask this. He looked at Yun Xiangxiang with uncertainty.

“Brother Jin doesn’t give advice to just anyone. You should answer him honestly,”Yun Xiangxiang reminded him.

Yan Zhenben nodded. “I used to think that an actor must first have excellent acting skills and have a basic bottom line.”

After a pause, Yan Zhenben mocked himself. “Perhaps I have been looked down upon by many people since I started at the bottom. I think that popular actors should be less arrogant.”

“That was the case in the past, but what about now?”Lu Jin asked again.

“During this period of time with me, I’ve been tolerating Xu Chen time and time again. I’ve learned that an actor needs to have a sense of the big picture and a spirit of teamwork. “After joining a production crew, you have to treat all the co-workers of the entire production crew as your working partners. We will rise and fall together.”

This was the spirit that Yan Zhenben had learned from Yun Xiangxiang over the past month by her side.

“The next step is to take a long-term view. You Can’t be limited to the good and bad of the character, and the more scenes you have, the less. You have to delve into the value of the character.”

“I’ve seen some of my sister’s interviews. Her recognition and evaluation of the supporting roles and villains made me feel that real actors don’t do it for fame or profit, but to treat every work seriously.”

The most important ability of an actor was the spirit of serving the work.

Everything was based on the consideration of the quality of the work.

Lu Jin looked at Yun Xiangxiang and nodded with a smile. “The reason why I admire your sister so much is that she has this spirit that more and more actors have lost. She is a person who truly loves this industry and takes it seriously.”

This love and serious treatment was not because of the noble character that she had when her career was smooth sailing. Lu Jin believed that even if Yun Xiangxiang did not have such a smooth career, she would still be able to persevere with this passion.

“Thank you, thank you.”Yun Xiangxiang was a little embarrassed and modest.

She thought that she was just doing her job, but in the end, she was praised and appraised so highly by these two people. She felt a little embarrassed.

“No need to be humble. Speaking of which, this seems to be a basic condition that every actor has to abide by, but it’s very difficult to do. Not to mention the role of the work, how many actors nowadays are tearing each other apart just for the sake of promoting a position on the poster?”Lu Jin could not bear to watch these phenomena, for a long time.

He focused on the film industry and did not return to the television industry because the film industry was a little more normal, and the television industry was too chaotic.

“Isn’t that something that the fans created on their own?”Yan Zhenben asked weakly.

“PFFT!”Yun Xiangxiang was amused, “You, you look mature, but you’re still young. It’s probably because you haven’t reached that stage yet. This kind of thing may not be instigated by the actors themselves, but the lead actor can definitely make a statement. However, how many statements have you seen?”
