Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1163 The top three in my mind
For Anita Mui, most people in Xiangjiang felt that she was a very capable singer and an excellent singer.

But as for the film industry, no one really thinks that Anita Mui can achieve results comparable to her in the music world.

After all, interlacing is like a mountain, and singers acting across borders, not only in the past, but even in later generations are not optimistic.

Because at this time there are representatives of cross-border success such as Leslie Cheung, Alan Tam, and Lin Zixiang, so no one thinks there is anything wrong with Anita Mui's cross-border acting.

It's just that the role she is going to play this time can't be compared with her qualifications and achievements in the film industry at this time, which is why everyone is so suspicious and heated.

"I know you two must be very curious, why Amei was chosen to play the heroine of this play this time."

Lin Daoqiu's question was exactly what Anita Mui and Chen Shufen wanted to know, so they nodded repeatedly.

After all, there are so many outstanding female stars in the Xiangjiang film industry at this time. Although Anita Mui has achieved good results in the music industry, she is a complete newcomer in the film and television industry.

"Actually, I also learned about this after the fact. At that time, in the screenwriting group, everyone had different opinions on the candidate for this role, but in the end, it was unanimously approved during the voting and let you play the heroine."

Hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Anita Mui was even more surprised. How could those screenwriters fall in love with her?She really couldn't figure it out.

"Mr. Lin, it must be a mistake, I... I have only acted in one play so far, I don't seem to be suitable to play the heroine, there should be many more suitable candidates than me. "

When Anita Mui knew that she was going to play the heroine, she was not at all happy in her heart, but rather worried.

Because she didn't think she could play this role well with her acting skills, so besides clarifying the matter, she came to see Lin Daoqiu today for another purpose, which was to resign from the leading role.

"If I hadn't read the script, I'd probably think that it wasn't appropriate for them to choose the actors just from the perspective of their perception of the actors, but after reading the script, I think they made the right choice."

Lin Daoqiu's words made Anita Mui and Chen Shufen dizzy.

Seeing the two looking at him in bewilderment, Lin Daoqiu explained to them.

"The heroine of this play is named A Fang, a dancer in a nightclub. The requirement for this role is to be good at singing and dancing. I chose you."

Lin Daoqiu continued: "Teddy Robin is in charge of singing and dancing in this play. My requirement is that it must be wonderful, so I need to find an experienced actor. It is precisely because of this that I chose you."

After hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, Anita Mui and Chen Shufen finally understood why this time the heroine chose Anita Mui instead of other actresses.

"Mr. Lin, I... I only acted in one play, and I'm worried that it won't be good when the time comes, and it won't be good if I fail the filming of the play."

Anita Mui still seemed very worried. She had no problems with singing and dancing, but the problem was that besides singing and dancing, she also had to act, so she was not very confident.

"Amei, in fact, you don't need to worry. This show is a gathering of stars. Your shining point is the singing and dancing part. If you perform this part well, it doesn't matter if the other parts are mediocre."

After all, the focus of this drama is not only on the two protagonists Jackie Chan and Anita Mui, the stars appearing in it alone are enough to support a drama.

As long as you don't mess around in it, this movie will definitely be made into a classic by then.

As for Anita Mui, Lin Daoqiu didn't expect her to perform exceptionally well in it, as long as she was in charge of the singing and dancing part, others would support her in other areas.

When she came to see Lin Daoqiu before, Anita Mui was still very nervous, feeling that she was not qualified for this role at all.

But after hearing what Lin Daoqiu said, she began to gain self-confidence. After all, Lin Daoqiu had already said that she only needed to perform the singing and dancing well. Regarding this, Anita Mui had strong confidence.

"Although everyone is not optimistic about you, but I think that if Amei is willing to focus more on movies, she will definitely be a very good actress in the future. I am very optimistic about you."

Anita Mui's potential in film has not yet been tapped, and now in everyone's impression, she is just a singer.

But for Lin Daoqiu, Anita Mui is definitely a very good actor.

Even in Lin Daoqiu's heart, among the top three Hong Kong actresses, Anita Mui must occupy a place.

"Thank you Mr. Lin for your compliment. I still have a lot to work on."

Anita Mui felt that Lin Daoqiu was just talking politely, she didn't think she had any acting skills, this time as long as she didn't shoot the show badly, she could be considered Amitabha.

"If you want to act at that time, you can call me. What I said just now is true, and there are no polite words."

Originally, Anita Mui thought that what Lin Daoqiu said just now was just being polite.

But seeing Lin Daoqiu looking at her seriously, she suddenly felt that what Lin Daoqiu said just now didn't seem to be joking with herself.

"Sister Fen, do you think what Mr. Lin just said is true?"

On the way back, Anita Mui still didn't understand.

As for Anita Mui's question, Chen Shufen did not have an affirmative answer.

In fact, when Lin Daoqiu said those words, Chen Shufen's initial reaction was the same as that of Anita Mui, they both felt that Lin Daoqiu should be saying polite words.

But now if you ask her if she still thinks that way, I'm afraid she will become hesitant at this time.

"I don't think there's any need to be courteous to us with Mr. Lin's status, and this time you were selected as the heroine because of the vote of the screenwriting team. If the script is really like that, then it is indeed the most suitable choice for you."

Anita Mui felt that Chen Shufen was right. After all, with Lin Daoqiu's identity and status, there was no need to ask her out to talk to her.

"And... and this time, Mr. Lin came forward in person. I think he may really think that you have the potential to be a good actor. Otherwise, with Mr. Lin's status and status, there is no need to come and tell us these things in person."

Anita Mui nodded while listening, she felt that Chen Shufen was right.

But Anita Mui doesn't have such big ambitions now, her greatest wish now is to perform this drama well, as for other things, she simply doesn't have the extra energy to think about it now.
