Chapter 87 "Swordsman" Linghu Chong
Cao Xuan stayed in the recording studio to record songs throughout May. Sometimes he was so busy that he didn't go home and lived directly in the lounge of the recording studio.

Only by leaving from time to time can he relax for a while.

"Well, it's delicious, what kind of soup is this?"

"Lotus root pork ribs soup, you can taste salty or not."

Zeng Li brought out his thermal insulation bucket and took out the soup that he had been cooking for a long time.

These days, Zeng Li went to class when he had class, and went to Haidian apartment to cook food for Cao Xuan when he didn't have class, so that Cao Xuan worked hard in the recording studio for more than half a month, not only did not lose weight, but also gained two pounds.

After taking a sip of soup and nibbling on a piece of spareribs, Cao Xuan turned into a cheerleader while eating, praising Zeng Li's craftsmanship.

When he was full, Cao Xuan leaned on the sofa in the lounge and hiccupped contentedly.

Zeng Li was playing with his mobile phone next to him, and Cao Xuan glanced at it, as if he was sending a text message.

At the beginning of this year, Motorola launched the first all-Chinese mobile phone. Before that, most of the functions of the mobile phone were displayed in English, which was very inconvenient.

The birth of Chinese mobile phones also means the advent of the era of text messages.

Cao Xuan immediately found an excuse to buy three new mobile phones. He, Hu Jing and Zeng Li were one by one. When it was inconvenient to make calls, they could chat freely by text message.

"Who are you texting with?"

Cao Xuan asked curiously, but Zeng Li didn't lift his head and said, "Yuan Quan, didn't she go to rehearse the drama "The Liang Zhu"? I asked her if she was free and went shopping tomorrow."

"Oh."

Cao Xuan is not interested in the topic of girls shopping, but rather gossips about the relationship between Yuanquan and Xia Yu.

"Didn't you say last time that Xia Yu confessed to Yuan Quan again, did she agree?"

"No."

Zeng Li shook his head, but immediately added: "But I think Yuan Quan's attitude seems to be a little loose. Last time I saw Xia Yu go to her rehearsal crew to deliver water and food, and she didn't refuse."

"Xia Yu is very fast."

Cao Xuan praised, it seems that the two of them are about to reach the end of their relationship, and they will come out to get together another day.

Zeng Li gave Cao Xuan a white look, ignored him, and continued to send text messages to Yuan Quan. Cao Xuan came over and took a few glances.

"Zhang Tong is also in the show?"

"Well, there's a TV movie looking for her, female second."

"Then aren't you the only one in your dormitory who didn't take the show?"

"Who said that, and Hailu."

Cao Xuan was speechless: "What are you comparing to her, she is now all about going home after graduation and getting married, and you, Teacher Chang, have been beaten by her."

"There's nothing wrong with getting married, as long as Hailu likes her husband and children."

Zeng Li spoke for his roommate, but Cao Xuan didn't argue with her, and asked directly, "She wants to get married, so what do you think? I don't think you're in any hurry about acting."

"It's no use in a hurry."

Zeng Li is very Buddhist, and said his plan: "I will shoot when I have the opportunity. If I don't have the opportunity, I want to be admitted to a cultural and art troupe or stay in school to be a teacher. The unit has wages and subsidies, and I can't starve."

Cao Xuan pondered for a while. Although Zeng Li's plan was not ambitious, it was indeed safe.

In a sense, it is even the best choice for ordinary actors. There is a guarantee from the unit. Occasionally, they can earn extra money from acting. No matter whether they are popular or not, they can live their own lives behind closed doors.

Thinking of the end, Cao Xuan was envious of himself.

However, Cao Xuan may not be willing to let him live such a life. He is used to enjoying the life that everyone wants, and it is difficult to return to the ordinary.

At the same time, Cao Xuan also mentioned the loopholes in Zeng Li's plan.

"Your idea is quite good, but the troupe and the school also need capital. If you don't take part in the show and get some qualifications, what do you rely on to beat your competitors."

This time, it was Zeng Li's turn to be silly.

That's right, regardless of whether you take the art troupe or stay in the school, fame is not the first, but the overall quality of the individual should be considered.

However, the comprehensive quality is too wide to cover, and it is difficult to have specific evaluation criteria. Therefore, for insurance, the best way is to increase the weight.

At least, a well-known and representative actor/student will have more hope than a vegan actor/student.

"Don't worry, there's me too."

Seeing Zeng Li, who was dumbfounded, Cao Xuan smiled and patted her head: "I'll turn around and ask for you, I don't dare to say more, it's not a big problem to play a few supporting roles."

Zeng Li glanced at him and hummed, "There are still characters in "Youth Bao Qingtian"?"

"Cough cough..."

Cao Xuan choked for a moment, and quickly changed the subject: "What's the filming of that bad drama, I'll get you a good character, Jin Yong's martial arts drama."

"Jin Yong?"

Zeng Li was taken aback: "You want to play CCTV's "Swordsman"? By the way, Zhang Jizhong is your old acquaintance, who are you playing, Lin Pingzhi or Linghu Chong."

"Everyone knows about this?"

Cao Xuan was a little depressed. He wanted to sell it, but Zeng Li guessed it at once.

"It has long been reported in newspapers that Mr. Jin sold Zhang Jizhong's copyright for 1 yuan. This is the first self-made Jin Yong drama in mainland China, and everyone is looking forward to it."

"It's not the first one, the first one is "The Book and Sword" starring Huang Haibin. For the sake of hype, the bearded man will go to the top of any name, and he is not afraid that he will not be able to come down to the stage in the future."

Cao Xuan couldn't help but complain. In terms of propaganda alone, Zhang Dabeard is definitely the premier producer in the mainland.

The quality of the Jin Yong dramas he filmed, regardless of the quality, became more popular and influential. Often from the beginning of preparation, they began to dominate the headlines. Many actors came out of his crew, and their fame skyrocketed.

Of course, it's hard to say whether it's a good reputation or a bad reputation, anyway, the popularity of TV dramas with beards has grown......

"You haven't said who you want to play?"

Zeng Li couldn't help but ask, Cao Xuan spread his hands: "Of course it's Linghu Chong, but now the two sides are just a preliminary intention, I haven't decided yet, I'm a little hesitant, and there is more than one candidate on Lao Zhang's side.

But no matter whether I act or not, with my friendship with Lao Zhang, it's not a big problem to put you in the crew. If you can't play Ren Yingying and Yue Lingshan, you can still win a blue phoenix. "

Cao Xuan still has this confidence.

Not to mention his old friendship with Zhang Dabeard, even with his current super popularity, the cunning and cunning Zhang Jizhong will probably sell him a face.

"correct."

Zeng Li suddenly remembered something: "If I remember correctly, I read a report before that Ren Xianqi seemed to have played a version of "Swordsman". If you played Linghu Chong, you wouldn't be right with him again."

"Why do you think Zhang Dabeard asked me to play Linghu Chong?"

Cao Xuan was a little helpless: "He just held back two editions of "Swordsman" and the two of us to hype it up. The film and television version of the South Renbei Bei Cao showdown is very popular."

"Is that why you hesitate?"

"No, Jin Yong's script has attracted a lot of attention. If I meet Zhang Dabeard who likes to toss, I am afraid that it will be expected by many people. I am afraid that I will be scolded for not doing well."

This is not an exaggeration. There are many versions of the big IP film and television version of Jin Yong's drama, and there is a huge readership of the original work, so it is difficult to form a more unified concept.

Everyone speaks loudly, and Cao Xuan can't guarantee that his performance will be recognized by everyone.

You must know that the original Li Yapeng was almost scolded as autistic.

The reason why Ren Xianqi's version has no turmoil is because all the firepower was led away by Li Yapeng.

Of course, this version was later overturned, and the Douban score rose from 6.1 to 8.3. In various versions of "Swordsman" film and television, it was second only to Li Lianjie and Lu Songxian.

In the various versions of Jin Yong's dramas produced by Zhang Dabeard, it is also second only to the best-reviewed "Dragon Babu".

Therefore, Cao Xuan was still a little eager to move in his heart.

No way, these days Jin Yong dramas have added too much to the actors, so that there has always been a saying in the circle that "Jin Yong dramas are sure to be popular as long as they are filmed".

In terms of Cao Xuan's image conditions, Guo Jing, Qiao Feng, and Wei Xiaobao can't play, and Duan Yu and Zhang Wuji are five to five. The most suitable ones are Yang Guo and Linghu Chong.

As for other Jin Yong works, the influence is relatively low, and there is almost no film and television version that is relatively out of the circle.

So this time "Swordsman" is really a rare opportunity. If he misses it, Cao Xuan doesn't know if he will regret it in the future...
