From Taoist Priest to Best Actor

Chapter 43

This is an anti-theft badge,

I hope everyone supports the original version.

However, compared to those actors who caused trouble all day long outside,

Should he be glad that Xie Yi was such a homebody,

After all, he never caused trouble for himself.

It was just that he was really not used to such an obedient actor. After all, no Hollywood actor was as well-behaved as Xie Yi, especially those who had just become popular.

So all his abilities were useless now?

But he still preferred such a quiet artist. What should he do?

Arthur was at a loss as he thought to himself.

"What I mean is that you can take on commercial films. After all, you are still a rising star now,

Although the two movies "Fast and Furious" and "Legally Charming" have made you popular during this period of time, there is a time limit

But this kind of popularity has a time limit, so you should take on more roles that can attract more fans.

Let the audience really know you, know Alan Rodriguez,

And not the roles in your movies. "

"Only at this time can you take on some better and meaningful scripts, let the audience know that you are not only a vase with looks, but also let them know that you also have acting skills,

So that the audience can really like you.

After all, even if those fans say that they will love you forever,

But how can you retain these fans for a lifetime with just looks? "

"So, your opinion?" Xie Yi looked at Arthur and asked. He had always thought that commercial films were the easiest movies to attract fans,

That was why he was more inclined to act in commercial films,

Because this could help him accumulate the power of faith faster,

Improve his cultivation.

And now, after listening to Arthur's analysis,

He suddenly felt that it was a good choice to act in a literary film,

After all, what he wanted was the long-term love of the audience,

If he could shoot a literary film that people liked, it might not only be loved by the audience, but also prove his acting skills.

Although he would not age as Arthur feared, he would not age as quickly as Arthur feared.

However, he didn't dare to bet on whether the audience would be loyal to him. So, as Arthur had just said, choosing a few literary films might be a good choice for him.

Arthur picked out one of the scripts that Xie Yi had read and waved it in front of Xie Yi, "Actually, any one of these scripts can be used for your audition, but I still prefer this one."

"It's this one. Why?" Xie Yi looked at Arthur in surprise. That's right. The book that Arthur picked up was the one that Xie Yi had read before, "Falling in Love with You Through Time and Space," or it could also be called "Love from a Different World."

"Because the theme of this novel is novel, the male lead's character is also relatively good. If you act well, you might be even more loved by the audience, especially those female fans.

But that's not the most important reason why I suggest that you choose this movie. The reason why I suggest that you choose this movie is because the producer of this movie is the Weinstein brothers. "

"The Weinstein brothers?"

Xie Yi was a little surprised, but he couldn't blame Xie Yi for being surprised. The Weinstein brothers had been really popular in recent years.

In particular, two years ago, she pushed for "Shakespeare's Love" to be nominated for thirteen Oscars. In the end, she was nominated for six awards, including Best Film and Best Actress, which was really eye-catching.

After all, there were countless good films in the Oscars that "Shakespeare's Love" won. Just the films that could be compared to "Shakespeare's Love" were "Life is Beautiful," "Saving Private Ryan," "The Truman Show," and so on.

Although "Shakespeare's Love" was also excellent, compared to the authentic American film "Saving Private Ryan," it still lost in terms of nationality.

After all, "Shakespeare's Love" was only a British film, but the Oscars was not an international film festival in the true sense. It was basically a domestic award for annual outstanding works in the American film industry. At most, some films from English-speaking countries would be included.

Except for the Foreign Language Film Award, films from other countries rarely knocked on the door of the Oscars.

Therefore, for a British film like "Shakespeare's Love" to be able to compete with the American film "Saving Private Ryan" at the Oscars, the role played by Weinstein couldn't be ignored.

"Yes, it's that Weinstein."

Arthur nodded and said, "Weinstein has been in the limelight in recent years. Although they are a bit unscrupulous, none of the six major Hollywood companies are like that. That's why I suggest you choose this film, because they are the producers of this film."

"Build a relationship with them through this film, and you'll have more choices on the road to Oscars in the future. After all, they are the experts in this field. There's no harm in building a good relationship with them." Arthur calmly analyzed the situation to Xie Yi.

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Xie Yi nodded. Arthur had already planned the best path for him, so he should also believe in Arthur's ability.

"Then, when will the audition be?"

"August 19th. The audition will be held internally at Miramax Pictures," Arthur said without hesitation.

As an agent, being familiar with the various scripts and related matters was a compulsory homework.

"Okay, I'll prepare well."

Xie Yi said seriously. Ever since he tasted the convenience of cultivation during this period, he didn't reject the career of being an actor at all. In his opinion, it was a special way of cultivation. It could cultivate his mind and improve his cultivation. It couldn't be better.

The audition would be held on August 19th, and it was already August 13th. Xie Yi only had six days left, but Xie Yi was not in a hurry because he had the system.

As his cultivation increased, his mental strength gradually recovered. Entering the script space built by the system for him could be said to have little effect on him.

Just like the name of the script, Another Lifetime Love was about a man and a woman who met and fell in love through time and space. In the end, the lovers were married.

Xie Yi closed the script in his hands and put it aside. Previously, he had only skimmed through it once, but now, he read it carefully. He had to admit that the theme of this script was indeed novel. The male lead was noble, elegant, talented, and had a sincerity that was rarely seen in modern society. The female lead was also strong and independent. These two people from different worlds met and fell in love. Combined with the elements of time travel, it was really captivating.

"System, enter the script space," Xie Yi said to the system in his heart.

With the system's "okay", Xie Yi entered the world of Another Lifetime Love.

New York in the 18th century was different from the skyscrapers and bustling lights of the 21st century. It was filled with a rustic historical atmosphere. This was something that Xie Yi would not have seen in the 21st century.

New York had not been fully baptized by the Industrial Revolution. The hard stone streets were mostly filled with people driving carriages and unhurried gentlemen.

When Xie Yi entered this world, it was during the first act of the script. The Brooklyn Bridge had just been completed, and the person in charge was giving a speech to celebrate the perfect completion of the project.

However, this feeling was different from the previous few times he had entered the script space. This time, when Xie Yi entered the body of the Duke Of Albany, he could clearly feel the difference. This time, he could move freely!

Yes, this time, he could move freely and not be trapped in the body of the characters like before, watching them walk toward their predetermined lives.

"System, what is going on?"

Xie Yi was confused. He looked at the people around him who kept glancing at him. Xie Yi tried his best to pretend that he was the Duke Of Albany. Once he entered this body, he would possess this character's previous memory. Combined with his improved acting skills, no one would be able to tell that the Duke Of Albany before him was a different person.

"It's like this, Host. Since the movie you acted in was released, you received quite a lot of Divine Energy, so the System used that to recover some of its power. It has gained some resistance to the rules of this world, so the Host can move freely in the script space without being restricted by the characters. However, the System's power is limited, so there is a time limit to this kind of free movement. The plot will have to follow the original plot, but the time outside the plot will be at the Host's disposal," the System explained patiently when it saw Xie Yi's question.

"You mean, the time outside the plot will be at my disposal?"

Xie Yi asked again. It was not his fault that he was in such a hurry. If it was really possible, then he would have more time to train.

"Yes, Host.

However, the Host has to take note that the time inside the plot is still not under the Host's control. Only the time outside the plot can be controlled by the Host, "the System emphasized again.

"What are you thanking me for? I was the one who brought you into this industry. Of course, I have to make sure you don't count your money after being scammed!" Peter said with some embarrassment as he patted Xie Yi on the shoulder.

Xie Yi was speechless when he heard that. Did he look so gullible?

No matter what, he appreciated Peter's kindness.

After bidding farewell to the crew, Xie Yi did not return to Los Angeles immediately. Christmas had just passed, and the whole of Wellington was still filled with the festive atmosphere. It was obvious that Los Angeles would be even more lively.

Now that he was alone, walking down the busy street, he felt a sense of loneliness. Xie Yi could not help but smile. He was getting more and more melancholic, but surprisingly, this feeling was not bad.

Compared to the hundreds of years of calm in his previous life, he had changed so much in less than two years since he arrived in this world.

However, no matter how much he had changed, the only thing that did not change about Xie Yi was his heart. He could let go of everything from his previous life and treat this life as a training for himself. However, the System had better not disappoint him!

Or else … who knew what he would do?
