Chapter 1978 Desire for Success
"I'll definitely go if I have time. Your accent is so beautiful. Are you from Oxford?"
Yang Cheng flattered her nonchalantly, which was much more advanced than directly praising her figure.
Long Ma was stunned for a moment, "Yes~ can you hear it?"
Yang Cheng instantly changed into an authentic Oxford accent, "Come on, William said my accent is authentic."
Long Ma covered her mouth in surprise and showed her classic eyebrows. Damn, one eyebrow really ruins everything. She should be cast in the role of "囧 Ma".
"You are more authentic than what I said~"
Yang Cheng waved his hand modestly, "Not even close. By the way, do you want a drink? It's been so long, are you a little thirsty?"
Upon hearing this, David Benioff and DB Weiss, who were like-minded, looked at each other and took the initiative to find an excuse to make room. Yang Cheng was very satisfied with their understanding.
"Okay, I was born in Oxfordshire."
Yang Cheng was a gentleman and helped her get a glass of wine and started the conversation, "How did you get into becoming an actor?"
“Oh, that’s thanks to my dad, who was a theater sound engineer.
I still remember when I was a child, my parents took me to watch the musical "Boat Show". At such a young age, I watched the entire performance without crying or fussing. Later, whenever my family wanted me to be quiet, they would take her to the theater. Go to the theater. "
Long Ma recalled the scene when she was a child and laughed unconsciously.
"When I was a child, I not only watched my father complete a lot of work, but also became more and more obsessed with the empty theater. I liked running up and down the stairs, imagining what stories would happen here. I felt that the place was full of magic. I was not only I am just fascinated by the people in the theater and even more fascinated by their performances.
When I was 10 years old, my inner thoughts gradually matured, and I told my family that I wanted to be an actor. My father was very supportive of this and found me an audition opportunity in the West End of London.
I confidently imagined that I would win the role in one fell swoop and have a bright future. However, when I arrived at the theater, I discovered that there were more than 80 girls of the same age waiting to audition.
The judges asked me to audition to sing "Memory", the theme song of the musical "Cats", but I had never heard of this song, so I had to perform a children's song about a donkey that I learned in school. The evaluation I received was: You don't Can you sing pop songs? "
Yang Cheng laughed cooperatively,
"It seems that your parents took the initiative to find a lesson for you~"
"Yes, after spending the entire adolescence in boarding school, I was rejected by the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, my only dream. After returning to the UK after a trip, I applied to all the schools I could think of, and finally I was accepted by the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, which was not a very famous school. Such admission to the London Drama Center.”
Yang Cheng waved his hand, "Don't say that. At least this school has produced celebrities like Colin Firth, Michael Fassbender, and Tom Hardy."
Long Ma laughed, "But it has nothing to do with me. In those years, agents kept coming to watch student performances and discover actors.
In order to attract their attention, I also changed Rosie, a minor supporting role in "Hamlet", into a comedy role, but it was of no use. No one cared about such a small role at all. "
After a pause and a sip of wine, Long Ma pushed her hair behind her ears, "After graduation, in order to make a living, I had to work as a bartender and a waiter in a restaurant. At that time, I felt that I couldn't do anything well, even It was a telesales job, and I got fired because I preferred chatting with customers rather than selling stuff.
Those bad days made me want to succeed even more. "Emilia said.
"Fortunately, this life only lasted for a year. One day, my agent called me and asked me if I wanted to audition for the HBO epic drama "Game of Thrones." At that time, I felt that this opportunity could not be missed. I wanted to take a gamble. Then I bought a plane ticket to Los Angeles. In order to block my escape, I stole all the tea bags in the lobby of my work hotel because I felt that I would never go back.
You know what happened next. "
Yang Cheng nodded, "Of course I know. "Game of Thrones" became famous in one battle, and the first scene shocked the whole world."
Mother Long shook her head helplessly, "Actually, I still don't know if I can put the clothes I took off back on, but at least I succeeded, right?"
Yang Cheng raised his glass and said, "I admire your courage. If I were you, I wouldn't be able to perform such a large-scale performance."
"Because you have no shortage of opportunities to succeed. When the opportunity is placed in front of you, believe me, you are willing to pay everything for it, you know? As HBO spent a lot of money to create it, the premiere episode was as high as 8 million US dollars, and the full season was 60 million US dollars. It was such a big project, and the extravagant food provided by the crew alone was enough to dazzle me, a fledgling British actress.
In preparation for the audition, I'd been reading George R. Martin's books and listening to Tupac to help me channel my inner ferocity, and it definitely paid off.
Prior to this, at least hundreds of people had been interviewed for the role of "The Unburnt, Mother of Dragons, and Daenerys Born of the Storm". This role needs to be both like Joan of Arc and a kind of domineering savior. But David and the others only saw this in me. "
At this time, Emilia seemed to be the domineering Dragon Mother.
"In this way, I, who was completely unknown, unexpectedly became the actor of the popular character Dragon Mother, who has silver hair, purple eyes, and extraordinary natural beauty."
Yang Cheng sighed, "You are lucky. You know, just based on the popularity of the original work and the clamor of fans, this character can become famous.
No one will ever forget your first appearance on the series, when audiences around the world held their breath in shock as your co-stars undressed you.
Believe me, at that moment I wished I was your brother. "
Women's sixth sense is extremely keen, especially the gaze from the opposite sex. They have a strong sense of perception.
She could clearly feel the possessiveness in Yang Cheng's eyes. At this moment, she was both proud and a little sad.
Emilia longs for success, but she also doesn't want to be remembered for her body.
However, when facing a young and charming rich man like Yang Cheng, she felt the thrill of conquest again!
This contradictory mood burned her soul like a fire.
The two looked at each other with knowing eyes. After a while, Yang Cheng gradually calmed down and asked, "You have tried many other roles over the years, but none of them have been successful."
These words were a bit cold, but Ma Long did not deny it, "I don't want people to only remember my body. By the way, we have some connections. When the filming of "Fifty Shades of Grey" started, I was asked to audition. , but I refused because I didn’t want to be stuck in the shackles of a super-large-scale, R-rated film.”
