【New Red Mansion】Perfect World

Episode 191 6 Character Selection Finalized Pin'er Practices Sword Dance

Lin Pin'er had her own idea: "Don't you know? A female celestial master needs to look tall to have that heroic feeling, but I'm not tall enough. I think this role should be chosen from the models."

After that, I turned around and watched Li Shuirong's interview carefully. He spoke English very well and the communication was smooth. He came back soon.

"What role is assigned to you?" Li Shuirong asked as soon as he came back.

"Mine is a female celestial master."

Li Shuirong frowned after hearing this and stood there for a long time, unable to figure it out.

"What's wrong?" Lin Pin'er saw his serious expression and asked with concern.

"Why didn't you arrange the role of Zhan Tianshi for me? Instead, I was assigned the role of Summoner." Li Shuirong regretted coming for the interview a little bit, because this advertising film has a trilogy, and there will be character CPs in the later stage. If they are not in the same sect, it means that Lin Pin'er is likely to film couple scenes with others.

Lin Pin'er gently held his hand and comforted him, "The Heavenly Warrior looks rather burly, and should be played by someone tall and mighty. I think the Summoner is very handsome, and I imagine you would look good holding a short blade."

"You mean I'm not tall enough?" Li Shuirong was a little depressed. He was 183cm tall, which was not considered short, but he was not tall either, and his figure was not strong enough.

"That's not what I meant. You're fine this way, but you're not suitable for that role." Lin Pin'er didn't know how to coax him. It seemed that the more she said, the more mistakes she made. But she couldn't help but say, "I don't like muscular men."

As soon as he finished speaking, a big handsome man walked out. He was wearing a black vest, and the muscles on his arms were very obvious, with colorful tattoos on them.

Lin Pin'er quickly lowered her voice: "Look, he will probably be chosen to play Master Zhan." Li Shuirong listened and looked in the direction he was looking. It seemed that what Pin'er said made some sense.

Finally, it was You Kunling's turn to go in for the interview. She often performed abroad and her spoken English was very standard. In addition, she had a good personality and elegant figure, so she quickly got the offer.

"You Kunling, what role did you get?" Lin Pin'er asked impatiently when she saw her come out.

"Leash master." You Kunling simply sat next to Lin Pin'er. There were not many people in the lounge. Except for a few who were waiting to be confirmed, most of them had already participated in the interview and returned.

There was still one missing Cloud Piercer, a role that required a very good-looking girl. The director called in the few models that had been left behind, and finally chose a tall and thin girl.

The actors were all selected, and the PD took six people inside to take the final photos. It was called the final photos, but in reality, they were given a set of character costumes, and after they were dressed, they stood against a white wall and took full-body and half-body photos.

As soon as she entered, Lin Pin'er was confused. Aren't there any changing rooms for them? Or should they wear them over their own clothes?

Unexpectedly, the girl who played the role of Cloud Piercer didn't care about anything and started to take off her clothes, removing her T-shirt and leaving only her underwear.

Lin Pin'er quickly covered Li Shuirong's eyes with her little hands.

Li Shuirong hadn't reacted yet, so he had no choice but to let her cover it.

"Close your eyes and don't peek." She and You Kunling then said to the other two boys, "Don't look either. Close your eyes." The two men simply turned their backs and laughed secretly.

The model quickly put on her costume and smiled at the two of them: "Thank you, but it's okay. When we work, there are often staff members around us. If we avoid them, we won't work. We just pretend they don't exist."

Lin Pin'er let go of her hand only after she saw that she was dressed.

"By the way, the game company should also prepare male and female changing rooms for us."

"Yeah, I'm not used to people watching me changing clothes." You Kunling said, there is no dressing room, whoever wants to change clothes can change. She usually has her own independent dressing room for performances, even if she can't prepare an independent dressing room, at least there should be a separate one for men and women!

After hearing this, Li Shuirong quickly called Sister Xi and asked her to coordinate. After a long time, the boys were taken out to change clothes. The girls changed on the spot.

Lin Pin'er whispered to You Kunling: "I think this dress is a robe, it's very wide. Let's put it on over the T-shirt. Anyway, it won't be visible since we're not filming the main film."

You Kun changed his clothes with great enthusiasm, and then let the staff come in to take pictures.

Today's work was finally completed with some hesitation. When they walked out, You Kunling followed Lin Pin'er all the time and said, "Pin'er, we have to sign the contract tomorrow. I don't have an agency. You guys should look at the contract tonight. If you find any problems, please let me know at any time. I don't understand the rules and regulations on it."

"Don't worry, I will remind you if anything happens. Otherwise, you can consider signing a contract with our company, so that we can take care of you when the time comes?" Lin Pin'er felt that You Kunling had great potential for development. She was beautiful, elegant, had a good personality, and was good at dancing. She would definitely achieve something in the future.

"I'm thinking about it. This time it's just for fun. Let's talk about it later!" After reaching the parking lot, You Kunling said goodbye to them and got into his car.

The signing went smoothly the next day, and everything was handled by Lawyer Zhen. Then the six of them were arranged to go to the studio for training.

The training studio is particularly large and has high ceilings, mainly to facilitate wire hanging.

After Lin Pin'er came in, she separated from Li Shuirong. The area she went to was a small empty scene. There was a handsome middle-aged female teacher waiting there. Today she was going to learn how to hold a sword and dance with sword flowers.

The female teacher was a famous Peking Opera performing artist. Her role was a Da Qingyi. She prepared two long-sleeved costumes for her to wear first, and then the staff brought two long swords.

The teacher handed Lin Pin'er a long sword, and Lin Pin'er bowed and took the hilt.

"My name is Li Fangjun, you can just call me Teacher Li."

"Hello, Teacher Li. I'm Lin Pin'er. Thank you for your guidance."

"Then let's start: first, hold the sword. Don't be too nervous and don't hold it too tightly. Just relax." Teacher Li walked over and helped her adjust her posture.

"Hold the hilt with your thumb and index finger, and relax the other three fingers. You will need inertia to do the sword dance later. If you hold it too tightly, you won't be able to do it."

Teacher Li has a gentle voice and Lin Pin'er studies very seriously.

"You learn quickly. Let's practice the inner wrist flower first. Watch me. The sword is held level and facing outwards. You must pay attention to safety here." Teacher Li demonstrated and then instructed her.

"Now you know why you have to practice in costume. You are wearing long-sleeved costumes during filming, so you have to control the sleeves, otherwise the sleeves and the sword will get tangled together."

Lin Pin'er struggled hard with the sleeve, and soon the sleeve was rolled up around the hilt of the sword.

"This is what I just said about inertia. You have to use inertia to dance. Don't move your arms, and the arms above the wrists cannot move. Let the sleeves hang naturally. Move only your wrists. Put the sword down and feel the last three fingers relax. Give the hilt a little space. Move it down first and then let the hilt swing up. Yes, you see, the sleeves don't move at all." Teacher Li was very patient and her voice was magnetic. Lin Pin'er, who was held by her wrist, quickly learned it.

"Practice on your own for a while, and be sure to pay attention to safety."

Lin Pin'er practiced for a while and mastered the key points.

"Great, then let's practice the outer wrist flower."

After practicing for forty minutes, Teacher Li asked her to take a break. Zijuan, who was waiting nearby, quickly handed Lin Pin'er a cup of water and wiped her sweat with a towel.

Lin Pin'er wanted to go to the bathroom, so she asked for leave from her teacher and left her training area. It was bustling outside, and she had to go through the hall to get to the bathroom. Here, You Kunling was put into a large box that could rotate, and she was fixed in the center, struggling with gravity.

Lin Pin'er watched for a while, but didn't dare to disturb him and continued to move forward. The blue-haired actor was in a green screen area, with various mechanical devices tied to his hands. His hands were now dressed up as Transformers' arms.

Lin Pin'er quickened her pace: "Do you know which area Li Shuirong is in?" she asked Zijuan as they walked.

"I don't know. Let me ask Shifan."

Li Shuirong was found at the corner. He was practicing keeping balance on a huge ball. The ball was spinning forward, and Li Shuirong not only had to keep his balance but also had to keep his body upright.
