On the plane from Beijing to Hunan, Liu Tao sat in business class.

Her location is close to the window, and she can see the clouds and sunshine outside. Beside her is her agent Xiaoye.

Most of the actors and employees of Good Dream Company are located next to each other, with more than 20 people, including international stars like Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei.

Xu Jinglei just won the Best Supporting Actress at the Toronto Film Festival for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Although she is a supporting actress, it is a famous film festival in North America.

Domestic media reported a lot, believing that she would become the third internationally influential Chinese actress after Gong Li and Yu Feihong.

Just now, the flight attendant excitedly asked Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei for autographs.

From this point, we can see the size of each person's fame.

In addition to these two people, many actors from Haomeng Company were asked for autographs. However, no one asked her to sign after boarding the plane, and no one even recognized her.

This is the gap.

"Don't be discouraged, you are the ones appointed by President Lin. They were also discovered by President Lin at the beginning. The difference between you and them is that you have filmed a few less dramas." Xiao Ye whispered, "You will become popular even after filming "The Legend of the White Snake".

This is true.

There are many reports about Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei in the media. As "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is sought after abroad, many old stories have been reported.

In media reports, Lin Zixuan met Yu Feihong by chance in Los Angeles, and was shocked and determined that she was the best candidate to play Yu Xiulian.

She also invited her back to China to film the TV series "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", thus creating a Venetian actress.

When Xu Jinglei was in school at the Film Academy, she was spotted by Lin Zixuan and played Yu Jiaolong.

It is through the training of TV series and the polishing of movies that he has become the current Xu Jinglei.

Liu Tao recalled these reports and did not relax, but instead smiled bitterly.

I know my own affairs best. She was discovered by Lin Zixuan, but she is different from these two international movie stars.

Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei are both from the acting department of the Film Academy. She entered the circle by shooting commercials and had no performance foundation before.

On the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake", Huang Xiaoming and Haiqing received professional performance training.

The two of them will discuss how to perform this passage, how to speak this line, how to speak at the speed of the speech, etc., which are all very professional topics.

Liu Tao listened on the side and realized that there were so many tricks in it, so the acting would be better.

She felt like an auditor, trying hard to keep up with the other person's rhythm.

Like her, Huang Bo also came from a professional background. The two were very close because they were the same agent.

Moreover, when talking about acting, I won’t say professional terms that I don’t understand.

Huang Bo can always express his views on acting in straightforward language, which has helped Liu Tao a lot.

She felt that communication with Huang Bo was smoother, but she couldn't learn Huang Bo's performance.

Huang Bo is good at free play and is very flexible in his performance. His character is a villain monster. He has no problem with his acting out of style and can also show the perverse and vicious side of the monster.

In fact, villains have more room for performance and are more dramatic than decent.

Liu Tao plays Bai Suzhen, and the character is limited by his personality and can only show his gentle and dignified side.

For new actors, a single character of the character is a good thing. As long as you act according to the script, there will basically be no deviation and it is relatively stable.

The result may be that the audience thinks that Liu Tao’s performance is neither very good nor bad.

This is exactly what Liu Tao thought. After investing so much money in the company, she can't mess up the show first.

Through this month of filming, she realized the difference between professional background and amateur actors. She would not think about how I sought breakthroughs in performance, but just thought about finishing the filming peacefully.

In other words, Liu Tao has not placed himself in the position of a professional actor and his positioning is unclear.

This is Liu Tao's first time participating in the Oriole Festival, promoting "The Legend of the White Snake". Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei are award presenters, increasing popularity for the TV Art Festival.

Lin Zixuan sat in front and was chatting with Xu Jinglei.

Xu Jinglei talked about the situation of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in North America. Next month, she will fly to the United States to participate in the promotion until next year's Oscars.

Although she has not filmed for more than half a year, her income has grown rapidly.

As Xu Jinglei's fame in the West grew, some international brands invited her to shoot advertisements and endorsements, and she could earn US$300,000 in a week's advertising.

However, there are not many opportunities to make quick money, and there are more long-term endorsements for three to five years.

This kind of endorsement costs at least one million US dollars.

Lin Zixuan told him not to talk about endorsements for the time being and to talk about them after the Oscars.

The endorsement of international big brands is the focus of competition among actresses. After all, there are too many actresses and limited international big brands, but now there is no price to sign a contract.

"For you, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is a thing of the past. You should focus more on "Hero". You don't have many scenes in this film, but you have some outstanding points." Lin Zixuan said, "If you have time to think about your future development, do you continue to take the international route like Gong Li, or have your own ideas."

"Brother Lin, what do you think?" Xu Jinglei asked.

"At this point, I will not arrange it for you anymore. It depends on your interests." Lin Zixuan responded, "The most important thing in life is to be happy and do what you want to do."

When Xu Jinglei heard this, she suddenly felt a sense of loss.

For a long time, Lin Zixuan has been helping her arrange the way she wants to go and the movie she wants to make, and gradually brings her to the position of international movie stars.

Lin Zixuan was like an umbrella to protect her from the wind and rain.

She had many thoughts in her mind that if she didn't become an actor, she wanted to become a painter or a director.

Like Lin Xiaoling, she made the movie she wanted to make.

However, these thoughts were just circling in her mind. She knew that the current situation was hard-won. There were so many actresses in China, and there were several more international movie stars who had the opportunity to become international movie stars.

At the same time, she was a little moved.

If you spend so much resources to promote an international movie star in other film companies, you will definitely treat her as a money tree, constantly take on roles, and make money for the company.

Lin Zixuan can give her autonomy and let her choose her future life, which is to treat her as a friend or relative.

For a moment, Xu Jinglei's heart was ups and downs.

From the novel she saw Lin Zixuan in 1990, to the first meeting between the two in 1995, to the moment she sat next to Lin Zixuan.

Ten years have passed like this, I can’t tell what it feels like.

She looked at Lin Zixuan's side, and the sunlight outside the machine window shone in, which was particularly dazzling.
