Chapter 85
Ling Huanxuan was confused: "Stop speaking in riddles. What exactly does this mean?"
"Ouyang Xiaoqing's acting is indeed good, but the problem is his performance technique is too heavy-handed," Director Hua explained. "According to what you've said, he was frantically shedding tears during the crying scene and putting excessive effort into the fight scenes."
"This certainly showcases his exceptional skill level. But at the same time, it borders on showing off! He was constantly flaunting his acting abilities throughout, emphasizing his professional prowess, while neglecting the character's actual circumstances."
"Would that young swordsman really cry so heart-wrenchingly? Would he really exert that much force when fighting someone?"
Hearing Director Hua's explanation, Ling Huanxuan finally understood.

"So that's what it means!"
Although Ling Huanxuan wasn't a professional, she was the screenwriter herself, and naturally had a deeper understanding of the script than others.

Just as Director Hua said, Ouyang Xiaoqing's performance technique was too obvious.
During his audition, he was constantly showing off his skills, without truly approaching and carefully analyzing the character itself.
If a professional actor approaches an audition with this attitude, would he really be able to act well?
Probably not!

In contrast, although there were unsatisfactory aspects to Xia Hong's performance, his understanding of the character was very thorough, showing he had put in considerable effort.
Director Hua continued: "Actually, I once worked with Xia Hong. In my view, this young idol's acting isn't as poor as online rumors suggest."
Ling Huanxuan was slightly surprised: "Really?"
She was skeptical. After all, Xia Hong had just recently starred in a film that was a complete financial disaster.

His awkward acting and terrible line delivery had been turned into GIFs and memes by many internet users, becoming the subject of intense mockery.
Even his fans couldn't blindly praise him anymore and could only collectively criticize the production team.

For a traffic star with such deeply ingrained poor acting skills and negative image, apart from his face, there didn't seem to be anything worth special consideration.
Director Hua explained helplessly: "I know you feel Xia Hong's performance in that film was too awkward, but this isn't just his problem—the production team and director also bear significant responsibility."
As an industry insider, Director Hua naturally saw deeper than others. The reason Xia Hong performed that way was not only due to his inadequate acting skills but also mistakes in the director's guidance.
"Xia Hong's acting is very selective about roles," Director Hua said. "Once he encounters a suitable role, he can deliver an award-worthy performance. But if he doesn't feel connected to the character, the result can be extremely awkward."
Ling Huanxuan pondered: "You mean Xia Hong is quite suitable for the young swordsman role?"
"Exactly!" Director Hua slapped his thigh. "Xia Hong has acted in many productions, 90% of which are known for being terrible. But there's still 10% that received good reviews, one of which was 'Divine Seal Bright Moon Sword.'"

"Divine Seal Bright Moon Sword" had been popular for a period, and Ling Huanxuan had naturally heard of it.
In that fantasy historical drama, Xia Hong's acting was excellent, as if he wasn't acting but was the character himself.
After that drama aired, Xia Hong had briefly shed the "king of terrible dramas" label, and some netizens had even predicted he would transform into a skilled actor.
Unfortunately, his next drama was a complete flop, and Xia Hong reverted to his original form.
"I understand now," Ling Huanxuan's eyes brightened. "Xia Hong can only perform at his best when matched with a compatible role. And clearly, the young swordsman in our drama is very compatible with him!"
No wonder Sister Liang hadn't hesitated much before decisively casting Xia Hong as the young swordsman.
Еnum̈.ӑ
She must have realized this point early on!
Discovering an actor's inherent potential and placing the right actor in the right position—not everyone possessed such insight and capability.

Realizing this, Ling Huanxuan couldn't help feeling ashamed of her previous doubts.
"I thought too simplistically and misunderstood Sister Liang," she sighed lightly.
She had even thought Sister Liang's decision was unreliable and wanted to dissuade her!
Now it seemed that while she thought Sister Liang was operating at level one, in reality, Sister Liang was at level five.
Е n̊_uḿа̄..i d
The gap was simply too great, and Ling Huanxuan couldn't help but be deeply impressed.
"Sister Ling, I know what you're worried about. Such concerns are unnecessary," Director Hua put down his teacup and smiled helplessly.
"You should know that in the 'Good Drama PK Competition,' I worked with Teacher Yao on a drama. And the other team members included Mu Taozhi and He Yanning, right?"
Ling Huanxuan nodded; of course she knew this.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have sought out Director Hua to inquire about his opinion.
Director Hua: "Actually, the reason He Yanning and Mu Taozhi performed so excellently was almost entirely due to Teacher Yao's guidance."
Ēn ŭ m̌ а
Ling Huanxuan was shocked: "So it was Sister Liang's guidance?"
She didn't pay much attention to variety shows and had assumed it was all Director Hua's achievement. Unexpectedly, it was Sister Liang's work.
No wonder... no wonder Sister Liang was planning to transition to directing. With her abilities, becoming a qualified director didn't seem impossible!
At this moment, Ling Huanxuan finally set aside her doubts and developed complete admiration for Yao Bianliang.
With such a partner, how could their new drama not succeed?
Director Hua took a sip of tea and sighed lightly: "Ah, even back then, when Teacher Yao was helping me analyze acting techniques in the variety show, I knew—she could definitely become an excellent director."

Meanwhile.
Yao "Talented Actress" Bian "Excellent Director" Liang was completely unaware of this conversation. She was happily reviewing materials.
Xia Hong, the king of terrible films, possessing the "every film flops" ability, a novice whom no industry leader could mentor successfully, had now joined her team—wouldn't that guarantee her failure!
Besides him, there were several other actors whom Yao Bianliang considered promising candidates.
For instance, the popular young actress A who only knew how to widen her eyes, shake her head, and smile; the young idol B who loved playing cold characters and was evaluated by netizens as a "wooden post" with "AI acting"; male actor C whose style was extremely greasy and whose portrayal of domineering CEOs made audiences cringe...

"Sigh, there are so many excellent talents, it's truly difficult to choose," Yao Bianliang felt she was developing decision paralysis.
She was tempted by each actor, but there were only so many important supporting roles.

She couldn't possibly ask these traffic stars to play minor roles; they certainly wouldn't agree. So the situation became difficult.
Just as she was frowning in thought, Yao Bianliang's phone suddenly rang.
However, this wasn't the ringtone of an incoming call, but a voice call notification.
Yao Bianliang raised an eyebrow slightly, looking at the caller ID: "Yao Xinxin? What does she want with me?"
Еn u m а
After some thought, Yao Bianliang finally clicked to accept the call.
After all, Yao Xinxin was her promising good sister; she couldn't neglect her.
"Hello? What's the matter?" Yao Bianliang asked leisurely.
As soon as she spoke, she realized something was wrong.

Wait...
Yao Xinxin apparently wasn't calling the "Yao Bianliang" account.
Wе̂b̄ n_о́ ṽ ӗ l̂ Е́n ũ m̌а́
On the contrary, she was contacting her alt account—Xiao Jin!
Yao Bianliang: "..."
After privately messaging Yao Xinxin on Weibo initially, the two had chatted increasingly frequently and had become good online friends.
Yao Xinxin was very enthusiastic toward her, and eventually even added her as a friend.
To avoid arousing suspicion and maintain her persona, Yao Bianliang had specifically registered a QQ alt account named Xiao Jin.
Since the alt account was linked to her main account, when Yao Xinxin made the voice call request, Yao Bianliang almost didn't notice the discrepancy.

Hopefully... Yao Xinxin hadn't clearly heard her voice just now.
Yao Bianliang's mood became anxious.
Fortunately, her luck was good this time.
From the other end of the phone came a cacophony of noises—car horns, pedestrian conversations, and loud music.
Yao Xinxin was obviously somewhat drunk and hadn't noticed anything amiss. Her voice fluctuated between near and far, mixed with the surrounding noise.
"Hello? Is this Xiao Jin? Why does your voice sound like that annoying Yao Bianliang," she slurred drunkenly. "Xiao Jin... it's me, I'm Yao Xinxin!"
