The Sword Master God's Journey to Face Slapping

The old man who asked Xuan Yuan to come over and open the letter marked with the number 2 and act out the plot written on the letter was none other than Director Jiang, the executive director of the movie "Sword Cultivator" adapted from the big IP fantasy novel. He is one of the best directors, and his personality has always been famous for his tough temper and difficulty speaking.

At this time, he pursed his lips slightly and watched Xuan Yuan calmly walk to the long table and pick up the letter on the table. Then he slowly opened the letter and read it. There was some scrutiny and evaluation in his eyes. Well, appearance It seems to fit the character's image, but his temperament isn't cold enough, but he can get by.

Director Jiang has also seen the video that was on the hot search list before, so he naturally knows that the lanky boy in front of him with only a few kilograms of fat has a lot of skills. This is a big advantage, plus his face is similar to that of the audition character. It was very similar. Director Jiang couldn't help but feel a little fondness for the young man in front of him, which offset the original dislike.

In the novel "Sword Cultivator", the male protagonist's master Sword Master is not mentioned much and does not appear many times. However, he is a character with a strong presence in the novel, and his importance is not inferior at all. For the male protagonist, or even for the whole "Sword Cultivator", it is not the male protagonist who carries his will and path, but the male protagonist's master, the Sword Master.

When "Sword Master" was first serialized, Sword Master was already more popular and popular than the protagonist, and he was a character that readers liked more than the protagonist. Now in this movie adapted from "Sword Master", Although Jian Zun still doesn't have many roles, and there isn't even much demand for acting skills, the quality of the casting for this role will have a huge impact on the entire drama.

When he received a call from Mu Wenxuan and agreed to give Zhao Ping's new artist a chance to audition, Director Jiang was actually a little unhappy. He didn't like accepting those people who were brought in by investors the most. Even if they didn't have acting skills, he would still Without self-awareness and self-righteousness, Director Jiang really had no intention of paying attention to them.

But investors are Ba Ba. Although Director Jiang has no shortage of people to invest, no one is as generous as Chen Hang, right? He still reluctantly gave a chance to the person recommended by Mu Wenxuan, but in his heart he had no hope for the person recommended by Mu Wenxuan, and even had a dislike for him, so he just wanted to go through the motions.

However, early this morning, he received a video from Zhao Ping. When he saw the young man's posture and agile movements in the video, Director Jiang almost thought he was watching a blockbuster, thinking it was a special effect or trick. Got Wia → Director Jiang is old and not too keen on Weibo.

After seeing this video and confirming that the young man in the video was the one recommended by Mu Wenxuan for the audition, Director Jiang's original resentment dissipated a lot, leaving only a little bit. It seemed that Mr. Mu did not recommend people casually. This boy's It’s totally possible to be a martial arts star due to your skills.

After seeing him in person, he found that his image indeed matched the character's setting, and further confirmed that Mu Wenxuan was not just recommending people based on his status as an investor. Director Jiang, who had a bit of an old-fashioned temperament, suddenly felt relieved. , no longer angry, but looked at Xuan Yuan with interest, intending to see his performance.

The role of Sword Lord does not appear often, and the requirements for acting skills are indeed not high. Director Jiang is not looking for an actor with superb acting skills. What he wants to find is someone with aura and a different understanding of this role. And the image that Xuanyuan currently displays is not far from the candidate that Director Jiang has in mind.

The three minutes of preparation time passed by in a flash. Under the gaze of Director Jiang and the others, Xuan Yuan, who had his head lowered as if he was looking at the letter to prepare for the audition, twitched the corner of his mouth, slowly raised his head and looked towards Director Jiang and the others, and put his hands in his hands. He closed the opened letter and threw it aside, as if he never wanted to read the terrible description written on the letter again.

Standing there in silence for a moment, Xuan Yuan gently waved his right hand. Director Jiang and others seemed to see the wide and elegant long sleeves being blown up by the long wind. He stood with his hands behind his back, and his temperament suddenly changed from the original Qiao Zimo's remaining What was clear, peaceful, gentle and well-behaved became cold and cold, like the snow on the mountains, awe-inspiring and noble.

Xuan Yuan lowered his eyes slightly, his expression neither sad nor happy. He was as cold and indifferent as a superior god. He seemed to be looking at someone, but his penetrating and cold eyes could not hold anyone. There was only a cold and cold look. He Said: "Is this your way of swordsmanship?"

Under his low voice and cold tone, it seemed as if someone had lowered his head to answer something, and Xuan Yuan slowly raised his head. There was no wave or waver in his eyes as deep as the sea. His eyes were astonishingly cold and indifferent. He only spoke indifferently. Ruo Bingxue said indifferently: "Let me down."

After saying this, he no longer paid attention to the reaction of the person kneeling in front of him. He turned around and left without any nostalgia. He was extremely cold and cold. He walked away slowly with calm and steady steps, his back gradually disappearing from everyone's eyes, but he never looked back from the beginning to the end.

After the performance, Xuan Yuan turned around and walked back, saying expressionlessly: "I've finished the performance, let me ask some judges." He felt that he really couldn't perform as written in the previous letter, so in the end he still followed the performance. I expressed this plot as I imagined.

Director Jiang and the four people couldn't help but be in a daze. It took them a while to recover from the daze. Director Jiang touched his chin and couldn't help but said: "The lines you just said are different from what was written in the letter, right?" Although he is not a screenwriter, he still knows the script of the movie "Sword Cultivator" very well, okay?

Xuan Yuan nodded expressionlessly. He felt that he really couldn't say such nonsense as "I am deeply proud and gratified that you are willing to dedicate yourself to save others, sacrifice yourself for others, and sacrifice your petty feelings for carelessness." So according to him I said a few words casually about my character.

In the letter Xuan Yuan got, the scene written was that after the male protagonist paid the price of his own sword being broken and the sword's will being destroyed in order to save others, he was sent back by the female protagonist to grow up. His sect, he met his master who raised him and trained him "through all the hardships".

After meeting the male protagonist who paid a heavy price to save the common people, Xuan Yuan felt that what the sword master said to the male protagonist was so difficult that he couldn't repeat it, so he temporarily changed his lines and said what he said when he encountered this. What you say and how you react when faced with situations.

Xuan Yuan has been in the world of cultivation for many years and has accepted spiritual pets, but he has not accepted any of the disciples who inherited his swordsmanship. Xuan Yuan has very strict requirements for the disciples who inherit his swordsmanship, so so far no one has gained his favor and been accepted as his disciple.

Over the years, there have been countless young monks who wanted to worship at Xuan Yuan's knees. They may have extraordinary talents, noble births, or pure swordsmanship. However, Xuan Yuan did not like any of them. It can be seen from this. Xuan Yuan has very high expectations for the disciples who will inherit his sword heritage.

If his disciple was such a char siu who knew that he was not strong enough but still tried his best to commit suicide, Xuan Yuan felt that not only would he not be as happy and proud as the sword master in "Sword Cultivator", but he would also feel that this disciple It's probably because there's something wrong with his brain that he would commit suicide like this.

Sword cultivators are upright, move forward bravely, and focus on the sword. However, sword cultivators really don't just rush forward without caring about others or whether their own strength is sufficient. In particular, after reading the entire novel "Sword Cultivator", the male protagonist is not without options. As long as he has a little brain, he will know that the most suitable method at that time should be to ask for help——

The place where the male protagonist was seriously injured and rescued people was not far from his own sect. Judging from the force value set by the characters in "Sword Cultivator", it is absolutely certain that powerful monks could arrive to save the male protagonist and those who were injured. For those who are trapped. Yes, maybe the novel can only be written in this way to highlight the hero's self-sacrifice character and perseverance. Maybe this can make the plot more ups and downs and more layered.

However, this kind of plot development directly turns the male protagonist into a fool who doesn't use his brain to think and just rushes forward, okay? No matter how many ups and downs there are, what's the point of having the male protagonist's character collapse? And when he knows the whole story, let the character of Sword Master express his appreciation and joy for the male protagonist's choice?

Xuanyuan said: EXM? Sorry, he really can't say such a shameful line.

"I think what the Sword Master said at this time is inconsistent with other people's assumptions." Xuan Yuan said in a very calm tone, "For a disciple who puts himself into danger without thinking and pays the price, he will not think that he is extraordinary. , Sacrifice yourself for others, you will only feel that he is not calm enough in critical moments, acts without measure, and is not very wise. "

Director Jiang: Don’t think that after you have said so much, I don’t know that you are saying that the male protagonist is stupid.

"Ahem." At this moment, the young man with handsome features and clear outlines sitting next to him suddenly choked and coughed. He shook his head dumbfounded, as if he was extremely helpless. He glanced at Xuan Yuan with a smile, and there was a hint in his eyes. A bit surprised, but not malicious.

Director Jiang pondered for a moment and then slowly said: "It's not a bad thing for actors to have their own ideas about what kind of scenes they should play and what kind of performances they should give, but it's also inappropriate to ignore the arrangements of the director and screenwriter if they all follow their own ideas. . Well, let’s go back and wait for the news. We will notify you when there is a result.”

Xuan Yuan hummed, thinking that this matter was over, and there was no disappointment in his expression. He turned around, opened the door and left. This was so free and easy that Director Jiang, who originally wanted to make a few comments, couldn't help but put it on his lips. The words were swallowed back.

The middle-aged man next to him who was smiling like a tiger touched his belly. He was the assistant director: "How is it, Director Jiang, what do you think of this young man?" He looked at the glasses next to him again. The elegant man glanced at him and said, "He is the screenwriter of the crew. Regarding this plot, he has the same idea as you."
