From Taoist Priest to Best Actor
Chapter 57
This is the anti-theft badge.
I hope everyone supports the original version.
In the next few days, Xie Yi stayed at home and played in the script space.
He experienced the plot and the emotions of the characters.
He also used the time outside the plot to cultivate.
Of course, the final result was very satisfying for Xie Yi. He was only one step away from building his foundation.
When Xie Yi came out of the script space, it was the day of the audition.
However, it was still early.
Xie Yi went to take a shower and changed into his clothes for the audition. He sat on the sofa and waited for Arthur to pick him up.
Due to the increase in his cultivation, even though Xie Yi had spent a lot of time in the script space, Xie Yi was still very energetic. After all, he was also cultivating in the script space.
And because the spirit energy in the script space was thicker than the outside world, Xie Yi was even more energetic.
After Arthur received Xie Yi, he looked at Xie Yi's relaxed appearance and could not help but ask, "How are your preparations?"
"Not bad, I'm ready for the audition," Xie Yi said calmly.
He did not stay in the script space for nothing. With the memory of the Duke Of Albany, he was very confident about the audition.
As expected,
Xie Yi used the style that belonged to that era that he had honed in the script space.
It was so perfect that there was no mistake in his etiquette.
Coupled with his acting skills and recent popularity, he successfully obtained the role of the Duke Of Albany, Leopold.
It had to be said that the release of "The Fast and the Furious" and "Legally Blonde" really brought a lot of popularity to Xie Yi, and this was also reflected in his audition.
He did not have to go through many challenges to obtain the role.
The director and producer treated him as if they were familiar with him.
Indeed, fame was the best pass in this circle.
After the audition, Xie Yi was enlightened.
It was just like the Xuanyuan Continent in his previous life.
Cultivation was the foundation of a cultivator, and fame in this industry was the biggest external reliance of an actor.
"Another Lifetime Love" was filmed in Brooklyn, New York City.
This meant that Xie Yi could return to his home in New York.
The place where he lived when he first came to this world.
The home where the original owner of this body lived for more than ten years.
Xie Yi still remembered how he looked when he first came to this world. If it was not for his mental strength, he would have died with the original owner. After all, the original owner's vitality had been exhausted.
"Another Lifetime Love" was scheduled to start filming on September 3rd, so Xie Yi returned to New York early.
However, he did not come alone this time. He also brought an assistant, Karl, that Arthur hired for him. According to Arthur, this assistant was versatile. Not only could he do the work of an assistant, but he could also work as a part-time driver and bodyguard. And to match, this assistant's salary was also much higher than that of an ordinary assistant.
However, Xie Yi looked at Karl's burly body and his usual dexterity and meticulousness. He felt that the salary was worth it. After all, Karl was really a very meticulous and capable assistant.
Back home in New York, looking at the strange yet familiar scene in the yard, Xie Yi unconsciously felt that things were still the same, but people had changed.
Just two years ago, he was still a respected Dacheng Stage Taoist Lord in the Xuanyuan Continent. The road he planned for himself should be to accept a talented disciple like his master. When he could support the entire sect, he would cultivate in seclusion without any distractions. But this did not include coming to this world to become a mortal and experiencing the accident of cultivation again. It was just that things were unpredictable. Even if he was already a Dacheng Stage cultivator, the person with the highest cultivation in the entire Xuanyuan Continent could not predict it and could not stop it.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" Karl looked at Xie Yi standing still in front of the courtyard door and could not help but ask with some worry.
In Karl's view, this gentleman was really a very good employer. Although he was a little taciturn and might be regarded as difficult to get along with if he did not get along with him for a long time, Karl found that this gentleman was really unexpectedly easy to get along with. He never had any requirements, as long as he did his job well. He was completely different from the popular Hollywood stars with a bad temper.
"Nothing, just thinking of the past."
After hearing Karl's words, Xie Yi withdrew his thoughts and turned to look at Karl. "Let's go in."
"Oh, okay."
Karl obediently followed Xie Yi into the house. He could see that Xie Yi was not in a good mood. As an assistant, sometimes he needed to enlighten the artist, but sometimes he needed to give the artist a quiet space. Xie Yi was obviously the kind of person who did not need to be comforted, so he should not disturb him at this time.
Because Xie Yi cast a small maintenance spell on the house before going to Hollywood, the things in the house were as clean and tidy as before Xie Yi left. There was no dust at all. This saved him and Karl from cleaning.
"Karl, this is your room. There are daily necessities in the cupboard. You can look for them." Xie Yi handed a room key to Karl.
"Okay, sir." Karl thanked him and went into the room to tidy up.
Xie Yi also returned to his room after Karl went in. There was still a week before the shooting of "Another Lifetime Love", and Xie Yi could arrange it himself during this week.
Brooklyn was not far from Manhattan, where Xie Yi now lived. It was only a ten-minute drive, and they needed to pass through the Brooklyn Bridge described in the script.
The Brooklyn Bridge spanned the East River of New York, connecting Brooklyn and Manhattan Island. It was officially opened on May 24, 1883. At that time, it could be said to be the longest suspension bridge in the world. It was also the first bridge built with steel in the world. When it was completed, it was regarded as the eighth miracle after the Seven Wonders of the World. It was hailed as one of the seven epoch-making engineering wonders of the world during the Industrial Revolution.
The first scene of the "Another Lifetime Love" crew was the speech at the Brooklyn Bridge building ceremony. It was during this speech that the Duke Of Albany, Leopold, discovered Stuart, which triggered the following series of stories.
Time, about time, someone once said that it was the fourth dimension of space. … What will happen in the future depends on speculation, and what will happen in the past depends on recollection …
The chief designer of the Brooklyn Bridge was giving a thought-provoking and passionate speech on the high platform. Everyone below was listening attentively, but not everyone could understand what the designer on the stage was talking about. Even if they could understand it, their eyes were still unconsciously attracted to the man, and they couldn't help but secretly look back at him.
That person was as dazzling as the light, as unreachable as the bright moon in the sky, but it attracted people to explore and discover him. That person was the Duke Of Albany, Leopold, the god-like man. He was handsome, tall, and talented. He was the dream lover of all the upper-class New York ladies, and they longed to be watched by him.
Leopold was holding a charcoal pencil and sketching something in a sketchbook. Upon closer inspection, it was a sketch of the Brooklyn Bridge. Leopold seemed to have some understanding of the speech. He raised his head, smiled, and politely said to the equally elegant old man next to him, "It's very insightful, isn't it?"
"It's very accurate." The old man nodded in agreement.
Leopold and the old man looked at each other and smiled, then turned back to pick up the charcoal pencil in his hand again. Just as he was about to add a few more strokes, he suddenly noticed a strange man not far from him.
The man's clothes were very strange. Leopold had never seen such a style before. The man was also holding a very strange thing in his hand, and his actions were very vulgar.
Leopold looked at the man for a while, then stopped paying attention to him. Maybe he was just a strange person!
He turned his head and continued to look at the speech in front of him. However, a very light but slightly mocking laughter attracted Leopold's attention again. It was still that strange man!
Leopold frowned slightly, handed the sketchbook in his hand to the attendant beside him, and walked toward the man.
"Cut, very good, Allen, you acted very well!"
James Mangaard praised Xie Yi with satisfaction. Xie Yi in the picture was like a real Duke, handsome and elegant.
Just by looking at how many female staff members on the set were infatuated with Xie Yi, one could see how charming Xie Yi's outfit was.
James believed that when the movie was released, the box office of Xie Yi's movie would not be too low. After all, Xie Yi only played a small role in "Charming at the Lawyer" not long ago, and so many young girls watched the movie twice and thrice because of him. So the box office of this movie with Xie Yi as the main lead would not be too low!
James thought with confidence.
To be honest, before taking on this movie, James was still a little nervous. After all, this was his first time directing a romantic movie. One had to know that not all directors were good at making romantic movies, and he was also worried that his first time directing this type of movie would be a flop. So, before seeing Xie Yi's scene, James was still very worried.
However, Xie Yi's performance obviously gave James a lot of confidence, and he could not help but praise Xie Yi's performance.
"How was it?
Did you get used to it outside just now? "Rob Cohen looked at Xie Yi with a teasing face.
"Director, don't tease me."
Xie Yi felt a little helpless. Previously, he had always appeared with the crew. Even if there were more people shouting his name at the scene, there were still people from the crew to share the burden. Moreover, there was a certain distance between them and the audience. The thing that he felt the most was the screams of some little girls.
Who would have thought that today's scene would be so hot and enthusiastic!
Xie Yi believed that if he had not been vigilant on the red carpet just now, he would have been kissed by the young girl, who looked to be 17 or 18 years old, who somehow broke through the circle of guards.
Although the young girl was quickly pulled away by the guards on both sides, Xie Yi was really shocked by the behavior of these fans. Didn't fans only like the works of actors?
However, what Xie Yi did not know was that there were more than one type of fans in the world. Some were rational fans who simply liked the works of actors, and some were fanatical fans who liked the looks of actors more than the works of actors.
Otherwise, how could Xie Yi's work have received the power of faith from fans before it was released?
The reason was that these young girls, who did not like a person very much, simply liked the appearance of a person.
However, Xie Yi had not thought of this yet. He secretly made up his mind that in the future, except for necessary activities, it was better for him to go out less. He did not want to be suddenly attacked like this again.
Although those people couldn't get close to him without his permission, it was better to use as little magic as possible when they were outside.
After all, this society was a society that believed in science. He did not want to be targeted by the Academy of Sciences or the Research Institute. Who would be afraid of being targeted by thieves?
What's more, he did not have any ability to protect himself now.
"It's like this at the beginning. You'll get used to it." Rob Cohen patted Xie Yi on the shoulder and comforted him.
However, when he remembered the first time the crew met to discuss the publicity plan after the shooting, they were surprised when they saw Xie Yi. Rob Cohen had nothing to say.
Previously, during the filming, Xie Yi had darkened his skin tone so that he wouldn't look so weak. Moreover, he wasn't dressed very neatly during the filming. He was only wearing an ordinary T-shirt and baggy pants. Coupled with his slightly messy hair, although the crew felt that this man was very handsome at first glance, it wasn't to the point of being breathtaking.
It was just that when they met for the first time after the shooting, Xie Yi, who had returned to his original appearance, obviously surprised everyone in the crew. Some people even secretly asked Xie Yi how he became fairer, but when they got the correct answer from Xie Yi, they were obviously dumbfounded.
