Chapter 668: I Don’t Know How To Dance
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhelin was a mber of Qingchen’s team, and this movie happened to belong to Qingchen’s team as well.
Therefore, Zhelin got to pick the role first.
Actually, there was nothing really to choose from.
This scene happened to have two female characters and one male character.
Even if he didn’t choose in advance, Zhelin’s role was already confird.
The character that Zhelin got was Li Longji, the Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty.
The remaining two female characters were Concubine i and Yang Yuhuan.
This movie was originally about Longji and Yuhuan.
Since Youlan was the guest actor, she naturally had to give up the main role.
However, Youlan shook her head. “Jiang Xun, why don’t you challenge yourself to play Concubine i? At the beginning of the performance, Concubine i amazed everyone with a Jinghong Dance. This is a huge bonus for actors.”
Zhelin opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing, but in the end, he did not make up his mind to say it.
He wanted to say that Concubine i was not the main character, and Yuhuan was the main character.
Although Concubine i had a lot of scenes in the movie, Yuhuan was definitely more eye-catching.
Since Youlan was the guest actor, she should give the opportunity to perform to the contestants.
However, if Jiang Xun was eliminated because of her poor performance as Concubine i, it would be a good thing for him.
Furthermore, Zhelin didn’t want to offend Youlan so easily, so he didn’t say the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
Jiang Xun lowered her eyes slightly and said, “I don’t know how to dance. Teacher Su, I rember that you have been learning dance since you were young. You were admitted to the Film Academy and perford dance during your interview. Concubine i is more suitable for you.”
“But Concubine i’s role is really outstanding. If you don’t know how to dance, you can learn!” Youlan smiled and said, “You still have a week to prepare. It won’t take much ti to do a short dance. You just need to focus on practicing that part.”
“But isn’t the main character of this movie Yang Yuhuan?” Jiang Xun raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, “I’ve read the script. Yang Yuhuan’s explosive feeling in this part is also quite strong. Why don’t you let play Yang
Yuhuan?”
“I’m not stopping you from acting.” Youlan pursed her lips and said impatiently, “I just think that Concubine i’s character will leave a deep impression on the audience, especially with her Jinghong Dance.”
Youlan said earnestly, “Jiang Xun, I’m thinking for you. I want you to shine on stage, so I want to let you play Concubine i.”
“But I want to play Yang Yuhuan.” Jiang Xun’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “Teacher Su, as a guest actor, shouldn’t you let the mbers choose their roles first? You would let the participating mbers play the roles that they liked and help the participating mbers as much as possible. It’s not about forcing a role that the participating mbers are unwilling to play.”
As Jiang Xun unhurriedly rebuked Youlan, she asked the system in her heart,
“System, does the dance skill include the Jinghong Dance?”
Jiang Xun had only unlocked the [Dance] skill page the last ti she completed the mission. She had not unlocked the dance skill book.
When she unlocked the [Dance] page, she only skimd through it briefly and did not bother to look at it carefully.
To unlock the dance skill book, she needed a large amount of rit points.
Jiang Xun still wanted to accumulate rit points.
Previously, she hadn’t had any use for dancing, so Jiang Xun didn’t plan to use rit points to buy dance skill books.
She planned to complete the mission first.
Who would have thought that Youlan would co looking for trouble and insist on her performing the Jinghong Dance?
Jiang Xun really didn’t know how to dance. If she insisted, she could act as Yuhuan.
However, Jiang Xun had a new idea. She wanted to see if the Jinghong Dance was in the dance skill book. She could totally learn it.
On the surface, she was not satisfied with the role of Concubine i that Youlan had arranged for her, and she was dissing her to her heart’s content.
She would make Youlan think that she reallv didn’t know how to dance, and
then she would act as Concubine i.
She would be thrilled when she sees Youlan’s expression when she perford the Jinghong Dance.
As expected, Youlan was not happy. She felt a little guilty and beca even more fierce. “Jiang Xun, I am helping you out of kindness and I want to make you more outstanding. You don’t appreciate it and bla ?”
“In this movie, Concubine i and Yang Yuhuan have similar scenes.” Youlan said coldly, “It’s not about who has more scenes.”
“But I don’t know how to dance. If I spend a lot of ti practicing dancing, doesn’t that an I won’t have enough ti to practice acting?” Jiang Xun asked.
Youlan thought to herself, Isn’t that what I ant?
I knew you couldn’t dance, so I let you play Concubine i.
If you want to dance the Jinghong Dance well, you will need to spend a lot of ti.
It was best if she spent all her ti practicing dancing and not have ti to practice acting.
When that ti ca, she would not be able to dance well or act well.
The reputation that she had accumulated previously would collapse in the next episode.
Youlan had gone to investigate and confird that Jiang Xun had never learned dancing before.
The Jinghong Dance had already been lost.
The ones that were passed down now were all adapted by later generations based on so historical records, combined with various relevant murals and cultural relics.
But even so, it was still extrely difficult to perform.
Without a solid foundation in dance, one could not dance well at all, let alone soone like Jiang Xun who had never even learned dance before.
If she danced, she would definitely look like a fool.
Even for professional dancers, it was not easy to dance beautifully.
When Jiang Xun went on stage to perform, whether it was dancing or acting, she would not perform well.
It would be strange if she could advance. The audience would not buy how much ti she had spent practicing dancing.
They would only think that she was not dedicated enough and not professional enough if she could not even practice this short dance.
Youlan almost burst out laughing when she thought of this.
However, a smile flashed across her eyes, and she tried her best to hold back her laughter. How could she hide it from Jiang Xun’s eyes?
“Host, there is. Moreover, the Jinghong Dance in the dance skill book is the original version.”
Jiang Xun was stunned for a mont. “Huh? The original?”
The system said, “The Jinghong Dance that is perford in this world is created by the later generations based on historical records and so unearthed cultural relics and murals. It is not the original version, which has long been lost. I just pulled up the current video of the Jinghong Dance. Compared to the original version, the current Jinghong Dance is really… unsightly.”
Jiang Xun said, “The current one looks quite nice. Isn’t it too much to say it’s
‘unsightly?”‘
The system said, “You should unlock the Jinghong Dance part of the dance skill book. When you see the original version, you’ll know how big the difference is. The original version of Jinghong is more difficult for people to dance now, but top-notch dancers could still replicate it, only a very top-notch dancer. The original version of the Jinghong Dance not only requires a very good foundation in dancing, but it also requires a very high level of strength..”
