Chapter 154 Shen Lang, what are you thinking about?
The result of the test is still so disappointing!
"You said there was a movie that wanted me to be the lead actor!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Xu Ke suddenly realized and finally remembered!

Shen Lang said helplessly: "So - what's the title of the film?"

“There is no script yet!”

Ada...

Isn't this a joke?
"goodbye!"

Seeing that Shen Lang was about to hang up the phone, Xu Ke hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'll tailor a play for you this time!"

"Surrounded by beauties! Shishou Kyouyu (typo), stunningly beautiful, righteous, and highly skilled in martial arts!"

Xu Ke showed his sincerity.

"That's more like it!" Shen Lang said with a smile, "I can finally be the leading actor! Brother Xu, I'm sick of playing supporting roles, you must give me a great and glorious leading role this time!"

"No problem, I'll cover it!"

That's right, what's my status now? I'm a small star with hundreds of thousands of loyal fans, but I can't even get a starring role. Isn't it embarrassing to tell others about it?

In fact, Xu Ke didn’t call this time to talk about acting.

"I just sobered up and got two good news!"

Shen Lang chuckled, "The Golden Rooster and Golden Image Awards for the drama 'New Dragon Inn' are competing to be nominated for our drama?"

"You know it!"

"Also, the second happy thing is that you want to congratulate me on being nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Award at the Academy Awards, right? Hahaha! Brother Xu, you're too polite!"

"Really? Best Supporting Actor? I didn't even know that news!"

"..."

"What I'm saying is that we've been nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film at the Venetian Film Festival!"

The Venetian Film Festival was founded in 1932 and its highest award is the "Golden Lion Award".

It is known as one of the world's three major international film festivals along with the Cannes International Film Festival and the Bolin International Film Festival.

In fact, the Best Foreign Language Film is just a competition section of the film festival.

A small project in the "Main Competition" unit.

But even so, thousands of foreign films compete every year.

It is indeed something worth celebrating that he can break out from so many movies and not make a movie that sells misery!
……

Soon, the news that the movie "New Dragon Inn" was shortlisted for the Venis Film Festival spread.

This added fuel to the already extremely popular box office of "New Dragon Inn".

The film has also attracted more and more attention from professional film critics.

For example, the old dean, Uncle Kong, is the one who is best at writing short essays.

Focusing on the role of Jin Xiangyu, he gave a vivid and emotional analysis of the character's growth, which attracted widespread response on the Internet.

Of course, my Uncle Kong did not forget to praise his own man Shen Lang at the end.

"Shen Lang is a talented actor."

"To put it bluntly, it means acting like what you are acting!"

"Besides, he is growing in every drama..."

"To be honest, the character of Cao Shaoqin is just a simple bad guy."

"But in such a hot plot, it's not easy to find just anyone to play a villain who looks down on the world and is the only one who is superior to others!"

"Moreover, this actor did not use a body double for the fighting scenes in the movie. All the actions were performed by the actor himself."

"You know, many scenes in action and martial arts movies are really difficult for non-professionals!"

"But despite the difficulties, Shen Lang rose to the challenge and completed it so perfectly. I am really surprised and admire him!"

"Finally, I would like to say that Shen Lang's martial arts talent is purely the result of his personal efforts. The so-called [family inheritance] rumored on the Internet is pure nonsense!"...

Uncle Liu is a nice person, but it would be better if you didn’t mention the last sentence!
If you don't say anything, no one will pay attention.

But after saying this, the topic on the Internet about whether Shen Lang has any martial arts skills and whether he has found a stunt double suddenly became heated.

"Shen Lang's acting is indeed good, but if you say he didn't find a stunt double, I don't believe it!"

"Why not believe this? Many actors in the crew have confirmed it! Liang Jiahui, Zhang Manman and Lin Xia have all confirmed in interviews that Shen Lang not only knows martial arts, but also a magical massage technique!"

"It's hype, absolutely hype! For an actor who has never performed martial arts, it's okay to say he can do high and low and hang on a tightrope, but to say he can also do martial arts is a bit too much!"

"Martial arts are so fake! They're good for strengthening your body, but if you take them seriously, you'll lose!"

……

A media reporter interviewed Shen Lang.

It’s such a simple question, yes it is yes, no it is no.

But Shen Lang smiled and said something intriguing: "Yes or no, that depends on whether you are willing to sacrifice [time]!"

The reporter sighed at the time: "I understand what you mean! Only hard work can bring rewards, no one can succeed easily!"

Shen Lang: "..."

If you want to say that - okay!

This interview had just been released, and something unexpected happened to Shen Lang.

Gu Jialan suddenly received many calls from directors from Hong Kong and the Mainland.

"Shen Lang, good news!" Mr. Gu said excitedly!
Shen Lang collapsed on the sofa in the rental house and said lazily: "For me now, the only good news is to invite Mr. Gu to have a meal together!"

"I'm busy lately. I also have a movie to shoot, okay?" Gu Jialan blushed and said, "Let's get down to business! Do you know the famous director Zhang Yimou?"

"Yes, I know him, but he doesn't know me!"

"Don't be so talkative!"

"Director Zhang just called and invited you to star in his new film 'Hero'!"

"Hero?" Shen Lang sat up straight.

"Yes!"

"Did you say any role?"

"I think his name is [Changkong]!"

When Shen Lang heard this name, he shook his head.

"No, no, no!"

Gu Jialan was anxious: "I don't know how many people are begging to be in Director Zhang's movie, why don't you act in it? Besides, I heard from Director Zhang that this movie has a huge investment, and the scenes..."

Shen Lang rejected it outright, "What Changkong? The name sounds very childish, I'm not interested!"

Gu Jialan looked at Zhang Weiping, the producer of "Hero", who was standing beside him and said with embarrassment, "He said he won't act!"

"Really? Teacher Shen's choice of plays is really hard to figure out!" Although Zhang Weiping was smiling, it looked very forced.

Gu Jialan hung up the phone and said, "I'll go and persuade him again!"

Zhang Weiping smiled faintly and said, "No need. Teacher Shen has his own considerations, and we can't force him. It just so happens that Zhen Zidan from Hong Kong likes this role very much!"

When Gu Jialan heard Zhen Zidan's name, he blamed Shen Lang in his heart.

Zhen Zidan is a veteran martial arts star in Hong Kong. Although he is not a top star yet, he is still compared with the likes of Jet Li and Uncle Long!

What happens after Li Lianjie and Uncle Long retire?
This is definitely the top martial arts star in Hong Kong.

Even people like this are vying for this role, and you, Shen Lang, are so dismissive?
"Shen Lang, what are you thinking about?"
