Millennium director

The leading actor, this is really a tangled question.

In the original version of "Ready Player One", Spielberg chose Tye Sheridan, who is considered a new actor in Hollywood.

He debuted in 2011 and started acting in movies after entering the entertainment industry. His debut film was with big stars like Brad Pitt. It can be said that his star journey is very smooth.

After acting in a few movies, he joined the "X-Men" universe in a few years and became the famous Cyclops in the X-Men.

Maybe Tye Sheridan is not very famous internationally, but he is quite well-known in North America. He is a bit like Peng Yuchang in North America. No, he is better than Peng Yuchang.

When Wu Yuan wanted to choose the leading actor for his Chinese version of "Ready Player One", his first thought happened to be Peng Yuchang.

Peng Peng is really suitable for the role of the leading actor in "Ready Player One". Both his personality and appearance are very appropriate.

But the sad thing is that it is only 2013 now, and Peng Yuchang is still a newcomer who can't be newer.

The TV series "Go Princess Go", which made him famous since his debut, will not be aired for another two years.

He is probably still in school now and has not acted in any works. It seems a bit too casual to find him and turn him into the leading actor of a blockbuster movie with hundreds of millions of investment.

However, Wu Yuan thought about it again.

He is a well-known director in the world. What's wrong with using a newcomer?

Director Zhang Yimou uses new actors to make movies every day. Cameron doesn't like to use big-name actors. The leading actors and actresses of "Avatar" are also unknown third- and fourth-tier actors.

But does this affect the success of their movies?

Not at all!

Speaking of which, among the big-name directors, Wu Yuan is the only one who has never used new actors.

Including Jiang Wen, Chen Kaige and others have boldly used newcomers.

Don't say it, when this idea came up, Wu Yuan was really moved.

"It doesn't make sense that others can use newcomers, but I don't dare to do it!"

Thinking about his impression of Peng Yuchang, this young man is still very spiritual, and he is the kind of actor who is blessed by God.

Not long after his debut, he starred in "The Elephant Sitting Still" and contributed very brilliant acting skills.

Even if he has no acting experience now, as a talented actor, Wu Yuan believes that he can train him well!

Do it as soon as he says it!

Wu Yuan, who thinks of one thing after another, immediately picked up the phone and called out.

"Hey, go to the puppet performance department of the Magic City Drama Academy and find a student named Peng Yuchang and bring him to Beijing."

"Why?"

"Let him audition for the male lead of my new movie, but don't tell him first, just say he is here to audition for a role."

After saying that, Wu Yuan hung up the phone.

Don't mention it, if you ask him to find another newcomer, even if it is Bai Lu, Zhao Lusi and other people who have emerged in the entertainment industry later, he will definitely not be able to find it, because he has no idea where these actors are now and what they are doing.

But Peng Yuchang knew it!

The major that this young man studied was really special, the puppet performance department!

After he became a little famous, this inspirational story could be seen everywhere on the Internet.

It was said that Peng Yuchang was very passionate about acting, so he tried his best to take the acting department of the three major colleges, but he failed. In order to enter the performing arts college, he had no choice but to obey the adjustment and was stuffed into the puppet performance department, a cold major.

Then when he was in school, he kept running to the acting department to take courses.

Not to mention, he really got it. After graduation, he still found an opportunity for him to enter the entertainment industry, which led to the later Peng Yuchang.

Inspirational, very inspirational.

Wu Yuan, who read this self-media article by chance, wrote down this incident. It is very convenient to find him now!

The next day.

The boss said a word, and the employees ran their legs off.

As soon as Wu Yuan gave the order yesterday, a scout from Light and Shadow Times was dispatched and flew to the Magic City overnight.

When Wu Yuan woke up, the scout named Li Wei had already arrived at the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

After revealing the identity of the Light and Shadow Times Company, the teachers of the Shanghai Theatre Academy welcomed Li Wei very warmly and took the initiative to help him look through the student list.

It should be said that the Shanghai Theatre Academy has always been able to be humble in front of the two schools of the Central Academy of Drama and the Beijing Film Academy, and the Shanghai circle has never been able to play with the Beijing circle.

Therefore, the number of artists signed by the Light and Shadow Times over the years is very small, and the cooperation with the Shanghai circle is almost zero.

Who said that Wu Yuan has been a Beijinger for two lifetimes? His personal connections are also spread around the two schools of the Beijing Film Academy and the Central Academy of Drama, so naturally he doesn't have much pursuit of the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

This is also the first time that the Light and Shadow Times has sent people to the Shanghai Theatre Academy to select actors. In the eyes of the teachers of the Shanghai Theatre Academy, this is definitely an ice-breaking action!

Soon, before even ten minutes of effort, Peng Yuchang, a student of the puppet performance department, was personally taken to the teacher's office by his counselor.

It's really easy to find a student in school.

It is even easier to find someone in a department with only dozens of students.

When Peng Yuchang was brought to the office, he was completely confused.

On the way here, he even thought about it a thousand times, whether he had done something bad in the past few days, why did the teacher have to talk to him in person?

He didn't do anything bad!

"Teacher Chen, Peng Yuchang is here."

"Thank you for your hard work. Go and get busy first."

The dean of the acting department waved kindly, and Peng Yuchang finally realized that it didn't seem that the teacher wanted to talk to him because he had made any mistakes.

He finally noticed that there was a man in a suit in the office.

"Hello, you are Peng Yuchang, right?"

Li Wei smiled and took the initiative to extend his hand to shake hands with Peng Yuchang. Without waiting for the dean to say anything, he took the initiative to say: "I am a scout from Light and Shadow Times."

"It's like this. Our company has a movie in preparation and is recruiting actors. The director accidentally saw your information and was very satisfied with your image. I hope you can go to Beijing for an audition."

"I won't beat around the bush with you. This is Director Wu Yuan's new movie. You should know how important his movies are to our Chinese actors. It is definitely an honor to be able to participate in it."

"So I hope you can go back to the dormitory immediately to pack your luggage and bring a few sets of clothes. We will rush back to Beijing in the afternoon."

"Is it okay?"

Very good, Peng Yuchang, who had just recovered, was confused again, and even more confused than before.

Director Wu Yuan's new movie?

Audition?

Me?

He looked at the dean in astonishment. Could this guy be a liar?

But if he could deceive the dean of the acting department, then he should believe it too, right?

"Student Peng Yuchang, I have already written your leave application. Don't worry, go. There will be no problem at school." The dean obviously misunderstood Peng Yuchang's look and said encouragingly. (End of this chapter)
