Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 877 Who Plays The Villain?

"Director Wang, why are you free today? Please invite me out for tea. Is there anything you can take care of?"

Xie Xian picked up a cup of tea and took a sip gently.

Since Xie Xian switched from TVB to New Oriental, he has shot a lot of movies and TV series, and earned a lot more money than before.

Especially the cooperation with Wang Jing has also increased.

"Fourth brother, I am not the one who invited you out for tea today."

Wang Jing smiled, he and Xie Xian are already very familiar, so there is no need to beat around the bush.

Xie Xian was slightly surprised to hear that someone else asked him out.

However, the person who can invite Wang Jing should not be an ordinary person, which makes him even more curious.

It didn't take long for the answer to be revealed. When the door of the box opened, Xie Xian immediately turned his head.

"Fourth brother, long time no see."

Lin Daoqiu walked in from the door with a smile on his face.

As soon as Xie Xian saw that it was Lin Daoqiu, he immediately stood up from his chair.

"It turned out that Mr. Lin wanted to see me. If he had known earlier, why bother? Just call me and let me come to your office to talk."

Xie Xian is now an artist under Lin Daoqiu's banner, so he still respects his boss very much.

"Fourth brother, you are welcome, please sit down."

Lin Daoqiu waved his hands, then walked to sit opposite Xie Xian.

Lin Daoqiu asked Wang Jing to invite Xie Xian out. Naturally, it was not because he had nothing to do, so he made a special trip to find him out for tea.

"Actually, I asked fourth brother out today because there is a TV series that wants you to be the protagonist."

After Lin Daoqiu thought about it, Liu Songren, Leslie Cheung, Liu Zhirong, and Pan Zhiwen were not suitable for the role of Li Xunhuan.

After searching around, Lin Daoqiu finally decided to let the 45-year-old Xie Xian play Li Xunhuan.

Because of the proper maintenance, Xie Xian looks like he is only in his 30s at this time.

Let him play Li Xunhuan, no matter in terms of temperament and demeanor, there is absolutely no problem.

Zhu Jiang was 37 years old when he played Li Xunhuan.

Compared with Xie Xian, Zhu Jiang's appearance looks too upright and serious, which is not suitable for the role of Li Xunhuan at all.

But Xie Xian is different, personable, handsome, these two points are completely synonymous with Xie Xian.

"Lin Daoqiu wants to make a TV series?"

Originally, Xie Xian called him out because Lin Daoqiu wanted him to act in a movie, but he didn't expect it to be a TV series.

But even so, Xie Xian was not too disappointed. After all, the film and television dramas produced by Lin Daoqiu, whether they are movies or TV dramas, have a very good reputation.

Even if the money he earns is not as much as that of movies, as long as he finishes acting in Lin Daoqiu's film and television dramas, it will still be of great help to his reputation.

"That's right. I want to make a costume martial arts drama. After searching around, I finally think that the fourth brother is the most suitable for this role."

Xie Xian also seemed very happy to hear this sentence from Lin Daoqiu's mouth.

"Since Mr. Lin is acting in person, of course I want to give you this face. I will accept this drama."

Although he only knew it was an ancient costume martial arts drama, thanks to his trust in Lin Daoqiu, Xie Xian agreed immediately.

"Fourth brother is really refreshing. I'll toast you with tea instead of wine."

After drinking this cup of tea, Wang Jing looked at Lin Daoqiu curiously. He wanted to know what kind of costume martial arts drama Lin Daoqiu wanted to make.

"You should have read or heard of Gu Long's novel "Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword" before."

Xie Xian and Wang Jing nodded at the same time. This drama has already been filmed in three film and television works in Xiangjiang, all of which are related to TVB.

They all stayed in TVB before, so it is impossible not to know about this drama.

"Mr. Lin is planning to let me play Li Xunhuan?"

Li Xunhuan is the protagonist of "Little Li Feidao", this is the consensus of everyone.

After seeing Lin Daoqiu nodding his head, Xie Xian also felt that this role seemed to suit him very well.

After finalizing the role of Xie Xian as Li Xunhuan, Lin Daoqiu still had to look for other roles.

Lin Xian'er, Lin Shiyin, Sun Xiaohong, and A Fei, these four characters are the four most important characters in Lin Daoqiu's play.

Mi Xue, Chen Yulian, these two must appear in this drama, after all, they are the most popular heroines of ATV now.

Sun Xiaohong can be played by Li Saifeng, after all, she is the closest in age.

The problem now is how to divide Lin Xian'er and Lin Shiyin between Mi Xue and Chen Yulian.

"Do you want me to play Lin Xian'er or Lin Shiyin?"

Because Chen Yulian had just finished acting in "Legend of Sword and Fairy", it was rare for her to take a vacation.

That day she was suddenly invited out by Lin Daoqiu to drink tea, and as soon as she sat down, she heard Lin Daoqiu talking about the TV series "Little Li Feidao".

After listening to Lin Daoqiu's explanation, Chen Yulian was very curious which role Lin Daoqiu would let her play.

One is a woman as tender as water, and the other is an evil representative who loves to hate.

It can be said that these two women can be said to be the existence of two extremes.

"You just finished filming "Legend of Sword and Fairy", so I want to let you relax a bit. What do you think of the role of Lin Shiyin?"

Compared to Lin Xian'er, Lin Shiyin's performance is easier. After all, compared to Lin Xian'er who is aggressive in acting, Lin Shiyin's performance is much less difficult.

"Are you going to let sister Michelle play Lin Xian'er? Are you not afraid that her fans will go to your company and break the paint?"

Chen Yulian couldn't help laughing and teasing Lin Daoqiu.

You must know that Michelle is an absolute heroine in ATV at this time, no matter her status or popularity.

If she is allowed to play the big villain Lin Xian'er, I'm afraid the fans who like her will be very unhappy.

"Could it be that from now on, she can only play decent roles, not villains? This is too restrictive for her."

Lin Daoqiu doesn't think that Michelle can't play a villain. As long as it is good for film and television dramas and suitable for this role, anyone can play it.

"In that case, I would like to challenge the role of Lin Xian'er."

As soon as Chen Yulian finished speaking, Lin Daoqiu froze in place.

He didn't expect that Chen Yulian would take the initiative to ask to play the role of the big villain Lin Xian'er.

"Are you confident that you can portray this role well?"

It seemed that Lin Daoqiu didn't feel at ease with Chen Yulian.

Compared with acting experience and experience, between her and Michelle, Michelle is obviously more experienced than her.

If you have to choose one of the two to play Lin Xian'er, Lin Daoqiu belongs to Michelle rather than Chen Yulian.

"I want to hone my acting skills. Anyway, as long as it suits this drama, can't I play the villain?"

Chen Yulian asked with a smile.

Before coming, Lin Daoqiu never thought that Chen Yulian would suddenly make this request, and for a while he didn't know how to answer her.
