BXBX NOVEL Chapter 665 - 665: Everyone Came Here To Win
Xiangni heaved a sigh of relief. After all, Jiang Xun’s words in the previous round were not directly for her. If she was accused of eavesdropping, it would not sound good.
She didn’t expect Jiang Xun to be so open-minded.
She didn’t force others to listen to her, but she didn’t have the intention to hide it either. She wasn’t stingy.
If she said it, if others wanted to listen in on it, it wasn’t an issue.
She didn’t care if others didn’t listen either.
Xiangni gave Jiang Xun a kind smile. “I was conflicted at first because the performance I wanted to choose in the last round wasn’t in our group. Sister Yao just happened to ask what I wanted to ask. I listened to Jiang Xun’s opinion. Now, I’m still standing here. So this time, I’ll still listen to Jiang Xun.”
“Then what do you think, Jiang Xun?” Hong Zeming said.
The others also asked Jiang Xun to analyze the situation.
Jiang Xun looked at Gu Fei, and seeing him nod at her, she had no choice but to say something.
“Alright, then I’ll talk a bit about it.” Jiang Xun said, “Actually, I haven’t acted for a long time. The number of roles I’ve acted in is far less than yours, let alone Brother Gu. I’ll say it, but all the seniors should listen with a grain of salt. What I say might not be right.”
“Tell us,” Gu Fei said.
Jiang Xun nodded and said,”Among these eight films, there are two comedies. It’s best if we don’t choose those. If in the end, the other side doesn’t choose either, we have no choice but to choose. There’s no other way, but we must choose those last.”
“Why?” Qiao Nainai didn’t quite understand. “The comedy in this film is a classic among classics. Furthermore, it was the box office champion of the period when it was released. Most of the audience has seen it before, so it should be very popular.”
“Comedy looks simple, but it’s actually very difficult to perform. The requirements for actors are very high.” Jiang Xun said, “It’s not that you can’t act well, but it’s just that comedy can easily fix the audience’s thinking. For an outstanding and well-liked comedy actor , When they come out, without having to say anything, the audience would already want to laugh. Under such circumstances, it would be very difficult for them to act in a real drama. Similarly, if an actor who is used to acting in a drama suddenly acts in a comedy, it will be difficult to achieve the effect of a comedy actor. It is inevitable that they will encounter an invisible door in their performance that cannot be pushed open or crossed.”
“So I think that although it’s a challenge, everyone who came to participate in this show actually hopes that the audience can see their acting skills and see more possibilities. Through performing on this stage, you can seek more opportunities for development and more scripts. In this case, you can challenge them, but don’t take on too big of a challenge.” Jiang Xun said, “Find a script that’s safe for you, but you don’t usually have the chance to perform it.”
“Other than the comedy, the other seven movies are also classics among classics. They are scripts that we have never had the chance to come into contact with. It’s not a bad opportunity to perform. You could also let the audience see your performance ability. The latter is the most important point. You came to compete with the goal of winning. If for the sake of the so-called challenge, you choose something you’re not good at and lose the competition, the gains do not make up for the losses.”
“It might seem like you lost a competition, but in reality, you lose the
opportunity to stay on stage. You lose the opportunity to be seen by more viewers. You lose the opportunity to see how many good scripts you could find after the show ends.” As Jiang Xun spoke, she looked at everyone’s expressions one by one. “So, it doesn’t matter if the clips of today’s eight films are good or bad. What’s important is which one will allow you to win. When you win, you’ll have many good scripts in your hands, and you’ll be completely famous. You’ll be able to make your own choices. Then, whether it’s a comedy or a tragedy, you can act as you please.”
Everyone was speechless.
Jiang Xun’s words were straightforward enough.
Only Gu Fei and Qiyao did not know what everyone was thinking.
If they knew that everyone was thinking this way, they would laugh at how naive they were.
Jiang Xun was already being very tactful.
She was probably feeling that she doesn’t know any of you, so she was afraid that if she said it too bluntly, any of you would be too fragile to take it.
They didn’t expect these people to think that Jiang Xun was straightforward.
Everyone came here to win, to let the audience see their strength, in order to win a good reputation for their business ability.
Therefore, everyone accepted Jiang Xun’s suggestion.
“Then let’s do it this way. We won’t choose the comedy,” Zeming said.
Xiangni nodded. “To be honest, I wanted to challenge myself with a comedy. I wanted to let the audience see a completely different side of me and make them feel that I could handle any kind of acting. However, what Jiang Xun said makes sense. With my current situation, it isn’t enough for the audience to see me so many times. You have to show your strongest side first.”
Otherwise, what use was there if no one even approached her for the scenes she was good at?
“Alright, it’s settled then.” Gu Fei nodded. “Let’s get rid of the comedies.”
“Actually, I have the same thoughts as Jiang Xun. If we have a comedy actor here, we can keep the comedy. But we don’t have any here. The teachers have never come into contact with any comedy roles. Even if the supporting roles in dramas have some comedy elements, they are still different from pure comedy actors. Let’s not take this risk for now. When the audience is familiar with everyone and we can choose a script, then it will be time for us to try.”
No one had expected Gu Fei to speak so sincerely to them. Gu Fei had only been paid to record the show.
Actually, whether they won or not had nothing to do with Gu Fei, nor would it affect him in any way.
However, Gu Fei was genuinely thinking about them.
Everyone looked at Gu Fei gratefully.
Especially those from Qingchen and Youlan’s team, they could clearly feel that the atmosphere in this team was very different from their original team.
Qingchen and Youlan didn’t really care about their original teams.
It was up to them to decide which show they wanted to compete for.
As a result, the relationship between the members of their teams were average, and there was even some unhappiness.
On camera, Qingchen and Youlan would be very considerate of their members and help them in every way possible.
Even though Youlan’s acting guidance was often not very suitable for them, and they felt that Youlan’s performance was not even as good as theirs, they did not say anything. At least Youlan had already guided them.
It was the same with Qingchen..
