Start a Core Pod

Chapter 1586 Is this okay? (Meow using quilt seal in heavy snow)

Strictly speaking, Duanmu Huai's body in this world is very confusing.

If she didn't speak and just sat there, she would be a standard sickly beauty. She would look so thin that she would collapse if the wind blows. If she had a melancholic expression similar to that of Lin Daiyu, she would be a quite lovable character.

I can't imagine it being a terrifying monster that can lift Ola Ola, the steamroller.

Of course, as a woman, there is almost no growth. For Duanmu Huai, this is a good thing. After all, he doesn't have to worry about what cup size to buy.

As for playing male roles, Duanmu Huai... well, he has done it many times.

It’s rare to see men dressing up as women in movies, but it’s not uncommon for women to dress up as men. Duanmuhuai's body is not very tall, but he is not short either. It is reasonable to say that he has the body shape of a teenager. As long as you change your hair style, put on makeup, clothes, and contact lenses, you can indeed play the role of a beautiful boy.

Duanmu Huai has indeed played similar roles, even quite a few times. After all, many of the adaptations of popular Japanese comic and animation works are based on campus settings, and there are super-powered battles and the like. The problem is that if you say that it is difficult to find high school students who can act, then it is even more difficult to find high school students who can act in fighting scenes. So Duanmu Huai was asked by big-shot directors several times, reluctantly acting on his own, and even acting as a stand-in.

But that’s also a battle scene!

Acting in a love scene?

This is a bit...

"Can't you handle it? I'm not in this kind of youth campus love comedy."

Duanmu Huai was speechless and said that he couldn't do it. How could he act like this? He has never been interested in romantic comedies... Oh, correction, the male protagonist died in the end.

So this isn't a comedy either?

Anyway, Duanmu Huai thinks this is quite entertaining and can be considered a comedy.

"The director said that he has seen you play similar roles in other movies and feels that it fits the characteristics of the protagonist very well... Moreover, if it is played by a woman, others will feel more at ease and the performance will be more natural... "

"Anyway, bring me the script and let me read it first."

As an investor and a big shot, Duanmuhuai naturally has this qualification.

Soon, a new script was given again, and Duanmu Huai flipped through it. Compared with the previous fourteen volumes compressed into six episodes, the length of the script this time was much more reasonable. Because there is no need to force those boring cowherd models, I just follow the plot of the comic and delete some branches. The story starts from the situation of the female protagonist at the beginning of the comic, and then to the male protagonist who transfers to another school and the two meet each other. The heroine slowly makes friends and comes out of the shadows. Then she gradually developed feelings for the male protagonist, and the male protagonist also used his own methods to protect her. In the final plot, one third of the comic, the male protagonist defeated the stalker who was following the female protagonist, and then the female protagonist found herself Falling in love with the male protagonist, that’s the end of it.

It can be regarded as leaving the public with suspense. It is a common method used in TV dramas and is more convenient for filming the second season.

"Um…………"

After reading the script, Duanmu Huai began to think deeply. If it was an ordinary romantic drama about love and death, he would not accept it. However, the male protagonist of "Jin Tian" is actually a little different. First of all, shoujo comics are all told from the perspective of the female protagonist, so strictly speaking this is a female protagonist drama. As for the setting of the male protagonist himself - because he is dying soon, he wants to live a meaningful life in the end, and for this reason he wants to help and save the female protagonist. At the same time, because he knew that he would die sooner or later, he did not deliberately fall in love with the heroine, so as not to be like the idiot characters in those TV series "You just lost a leg, but what he lost was love..."

So strictly speaking, the story of "Today's Sweetness" is more like a story about the female protagonist sinking into darkness, then being rescued, and finally becoming independent and self-reliant. Most of the narrative focus is actually on the female protagonist, and the male protagonist is more of a comparison. Important tool man. After all, they will die in the end, so they won't be as tired as ordinary campus lovers.

Well, looking at it this way...it doesn't seem unacceptable?

"Okay, let me give it a try."

Now Duanmu Huai is very happy about his decision. Although he stars in movies, most of his roles in the movies are first-line supporting roles, so he can choose the works he shoots more freely. It would be different if he were a superstar or a popular protagonist in the movie industry.

After all, actors are valuable, and those like Duanmu Huai, who mainly plays supporting roles, don't have much celebrity baggage, so it's no problem to go around in circles.

But if you switch to those who play the leading male role in such an obscure online TV series, it's a different story.

And although he is said to be the male protagonist, he is actually a supporting role from the perspective of the story itself. The most important thing in this drama is Arima Kana who plays the heroine. As long as she plays the role well, then everything will be fine.

All in all, give it a try.

Compared with the previous small fights, the start of filming this time was much more formal. The most important thing before starting filming was naturally the script reading. The main thing is that before filming starts, the director, screenwriter, actors and others get together to comprehensively review the script, read the lines of each character, revise and understand it.

This can be regarded as the first time that the crew members met together and met each other before starting filming.

When Duanmuhuai opened the conference room door and walked into the conference room, he saw this scene. Basically, except for a few adults sitting at the top, the rest are all young men and women. After all, it is a youth campus love movie, so it is impossible to choose a 25-year-old woman to play JK.

...shouldn't it?

"Why?"

"Is that... Duanmu Ai?"

"Liar? Why would she come to such a small set?"

Seeing Duanmu Huai, the young actors were stunned, and many even exclaimed. You must know that many of them are older than Duanmu Huai, but in terms of artistic age and achievements, none of them can compare to this person who debuted at the age of four and continued to act until he was fifteen. He has won various awards and starred in A famous actor who has appeared in many first-line movies. "Hello."

Duanmu Huai nodded to everyone as a greeting, and then sat in the first place next to the director - with his status, it was almost natural to sit here.

"Well, everyone is here, let's get started. First, let me explain..."

The director also said hello to Duanmu Huai, then coughed, looked at the crowd and began to explain.

First of all, let’s explain the role. The heroine is still Arima Kana. It seems that she did well in the second selection. At least the director recognized that she still has the ability to play the heroine.

The heroine’s friend A is played by...

"I am Kurokawa Akane from the theater group LALALAI. Please give me your advice."

The first person to stand up was a tall black-haired girl. She looked a little timid and seemed to be more introverted. However, Duanmu Huai is not surprised by this. He has been to many studios and met many actors. He also knows that many actors appear to be schizophrenic on and off screen, with completely different appearances. Although her current reaction is a bit different from the lively Friend A she is going to play, but since the director is sure that she can do it, it should mean that she has acting skills in this area.

"I'm Mai Sakurajima, please give me your advice."

Compared to the timid Kurokawa Akane, Sakurajima Mai, who plays friend B, appears very confident and full of momentum. She is a girl with waist-length hair and a good figure. I heard that she has acted in TV dramas before, so she is considered a quite experienced actor. For Sakurajima Mai, she should be able to do a TV drama of this level without any problem.

As for what comes next... the actor who plays the evil friend.

"Wushimi Xixue, please give me your advice."

Washimi Yuyuki plays the kind of scheming **** that often appears in shoujo comics. In the early stage of the comic, she is a green tea who seems to be very enthusiastic about taking care of the heroine, but in fact she is just trying to get close to the hero through the heroine. It is said that there are always similar characters like this in shoujo comics. On the surface, they call you sisters, but secretly they want to sell you. This can be regarded as a character that often appears in shoujo comics.

Although I don't know how her acting skills are, at least she looks quite innocent and cute on the outside.

"Hello everyone, I am MEM Chiu! Thank you all for giving me this opportunity this time, I will work hard to do it!"

The one who appeared after Washimi Yuyuki was the blond girl who was responsible for playing the supporting role C. According to the information in the newspaper, she was a very famous YOUTOBER host and was very suitable for this network TV, so the crew invited her.

In fact, in this crew, including Duanmu Huai, only Magana, Akane Kurokawa and Mai Sakurajima are regular actors. The other supporting roles are all models, YOUTOBER hosts or idols. However, these people don't have many roles, and it's really hard to find good actors of this age, so the crew had to consider it from other aspects.

For example, Washimi Yixue, who was a model, was invited because she worked in the same agency as the cowherd who was kicked out by Duanmu Huai before. In order to compensate, she had to leave such a job for him. a role. As for MEM, it goes without saying that only by using online anchors in online TV series can the topic be maximized.

Of course, Duanmu Huai is not completely unconcerned. If you pick a few topical supporting roles like this, he won't bother to care.

But you can’t even use the protagonist to fool people!

This is not nonsense!

In fact, Ruby was also inserted into the crew by Duanmu Huai, but she was just an ordinary passerby actor, the kind of character who was the classmate A who chatted in the class when the heroine went to school. In this regard, Duanmu Huai said that it was just to let Ruby experience the atmosphere of the crew. Anyway, a passerby actor does not matter and will not hinder the overall situation.

By the way, Ruby was very excited after learning that she could participate in "Sweet Today"...

Soon, this circle was introduced, most of them were girls. There was actually only one male character, a relative and friend of the male protagonist.

So that idiot who stuffed so many handsome guys in was a completely insane operation, and it didn't match the heroine's character. The heroine was poisoned by her mother, so she didn't trust others since she was a child. How could she get carried away when surrounded by a few handsome guys? Then she was completely out of the game!

"That...director?"

After the introduction, the script reading was about to begin, and at this moment, Mai Sakurajima raised her hand curiously.

"Excuse me, who plays the male protagonist..."

"Haah..."

Duanmuhuai sighed silently, and then stood up.

"Duanmu Ai, I will play the male lead."

"…………Why?"

"Hey hey hey!?"

At this moment, the person who made the most surprised cry was none other than Arima Ganai.
