Ji Li was so preoccupied with reading the script that she forgot the company's off-duty time. It was almost half past nine now, he was very interested in this role, and planned to talk to Sun Yong tomorrow morning.
The descending elevator suddenly stopped on the sixth floor.
As soon as the door opened, Ji Li saw He Ling's figure.
The other party should have just finished taking a promotional photo, and with a stinky face wearing heavy makeup, he can actually see a bit of 'cold and evil'. Among other things, this face is really plastic.
"Come in?" Ji Li made way sideways.
Since the two are colleagues in the company, there must be some superficial courtesy.
He Ling stood still. He recognized Ji Li, and his unhappy eyes gradually turned hostile, "...the reason why the company took my resources is to bring someone like you?"
Ji Li's eyes flashed, and the goodwill that rushed to his face dissipated in an instant.
Learn art and be a man first.
Opening your mouth and shutting your mouth is malicious, so who will you show it to
The elevator door closes automatically when it reaches a certain point, Ji Li presses the door open button without hesitation, and asks, "The company assigns me to Sun Yong's subordinates, and shares a broker with you, the same reason, you count..."
He deliberately paused, his eyes swept across He Ling's whole body, and he smiled with his lips curled up: What kind of guy are you
Ji Li doesn't like to fight against others, but it doesn't mean he has no temper. Some words need not be explained clearly, just relying on body and eyes is enough.
He Ling obviously understood what he meant, and a sense of embarrassment suddenly swept through his body. Before he could vent his anger, Sun Yong and his assistant came over.
"The elevator is here? Why don't you go in?"
When Sun Yong saw Ji Li in the elevator, his expression was obviously happy, "Why haven't you gone back yet?"
Ji Li made a long story short, "After reading the script, I am going back."
Sun Yong didn't know about the 'little conflict' between the two, so he pushed He Ling into the elevator. The assistant carried the backpack and carefully sized He Ling up.
According to his understanding of He Ling, this master must be angry again.
Angry every day, angry all the time, idols these days are too difficult to deal with!
The assistant pushed his glasses nervously, and shrank himself in a corner as an invisible person, not daring to provoke anger easily.
Since Sun Yong got into the elevator, his mind has been on Ji Li. He caught a glimpse of the two stacks of scripts in the other party's hand and asked, "It took a few hours to read them all?"
"Which movie do you like? Is it the male lead of a costume drama?"
Sun Yong guessed confidently, but was slapped in the face by Ji Li in the next second.
"I don't want to be the second male lead in ancient costume." Ji Li held up the script he liked in front of the other party, "I want to play this."
Sun Yong showed surprise, and then he pretended to nod knowingly, "It's okay, the investment is small, but it's better to fight for the male number one."
"I want to play the male third." Ji Li blurted out.
In just two sentences of dialogue, Sun Yong was slapped in the face by the young man, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "What? The third male?"
Did he hear wrong
Don't play the male lead and the second male who have a lot of roles, and run to play the third male
Before Ji Li could reply, He Ling on the side sneered, "I thought I was some kind of powerful rookie, but ended up being kicked out of my head by a donkey and going to play the male third? It's no wonder people like you have a future."
Sun Yong frowned and stopped in a low voice, "He Ling, why are you talking?"
The assistant standing in the corner also changed his eyes, and secretly slandered: He Ling's arrogant temper, which makes people laugh when he sees him, will offend people and cause accidents sooner or later!
"What am I talking about? Sun Yong, you use the resources I don't want to pretend to be a fat man in front of him, but the other party is an idiot who can't afford it. I advise you to calm down! Don't pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelons, who will be the best?" It’s a worthy cash cow, you have to see it clearly.”
The elevator door opened in response, and He Ling left with his long legs.
Sun Yong's face was livid because of him, and he hurriedly said to Ji Li, "You come to the company to see me tomorrow morning, and we can talk in detail when you have time."
After the two left, the assistant who was huddled in the corner breathed a sigh of relief.
— Hey, he finally got off work, and his life is going to be shortened every day!
Ji Li heard his movement and looked over.
The assistant's appearance was very delicate, and the cheeks on both sides were slightly baby fat, looking like a daily doormat.
"Hello, my name is Baozixing, and everyone calls me Baozi." The assistant noticed his gaze and quickly introduced himself.
Ji Li couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, he really lived up to his name.
Baozi blushed from the smile, and whispered, "...I know you, you are the best-looking among the company's newcomers."
"Thank you, won't you go with them?"
"No, I live near the company. He Ling didn't join the team until a few days later, and he won't let me follow around the clock."
The two left the company and chatted for a few words before finding out where they lived.
Ji Li asked casually, "How long have you been an assistant by He Ling's side? His tough temper shouldn't be good, right?"
"It's not just bad? There's nothing you can do about it! Laozi was deceived by his personality and beauty in the first place!" Baozi burst out the truth, and quickly blushed when he realized it.
Ji Li showed a clear smile and said, "Don't worry, I won't tell him."
Baozi heaved a sigh of relief, and simply kept it secret, "I liked him after watching the draft competition last year. Later, I found out that he was going to sign with Dream Media, so I came to the company to interview the trainee agent."
Baozi is lucky, but also unlucky.
After entering the company, he was successfully assigned to He Ling's team, but due to lack of experience, he was actually dropped to the position of assistant.
As a fan of He Ling, Baozi thinks it's okay to be a personal assistant.
As a result, in less than a month, his fan filter was completely shattered, and he was about to turn from fan to black—
He Ling's temper is really bad! Relying on his popularity and capital behind him, he dares to offend people everywhere.
"It was only later that I found out that the rumors about the tournament were true." Baozi sighed.
He Lingzuiqi offended the boss of the talent show group, and that's why he got stuck on the night of his debut. Not only that, but he was also boycotted by people in the industry in the talent show industry. After the game, he was not allowed to participate in many idol-type programs.
He Ling's fans didn't know, and blamed all this on the original company, thinking that the company restricted his brother's development.
Ji Li thought of Baozi's assistant status, so he didn't ask.
However, he could guess that there is a high probability that He Ling turned into an actor and filmed because of the impediment of the idol road.
The more Baozi thought about it, the more helpless he became, and he began to think, "I really hope he can restrain himself when he joins the new crew, otherwise I'm the one who takes the blame and apologizes with a shy face every time. The little assistant has no human rights."
"What crew is he going to join?" Ji Li asked.
"In the costume drama adapted from the novel IP, he played the role of the male villain. The role is a typical beauty, strong and tragic." Baozi said.
He didn't dare to reveal too much - He Ling secretly stuffed 30 million to the crew, and he was able to play this role as a way to bring money into the crew.
Ji Li nodded, not feeling envious.
He Ling has the capital to win an important role in a costume IP drama, and he also missed a high-quality movie script. For actors, every time they encounter a role, they need an opportunity.
"I'm here." Ji Li stopped downstairs.
"Ah? Okay, goodbye then." Baozi stopped walking, feeling inexplicably regretful.
Ji Li likes this interesting young man very much, "Good night."
Baozi watched Ji Li go upstairs. Although the two didn't talk much, he felt very comfortable with the other party.
——It would be great if I could do things by Ji Li's side.
This thought was fleeting, Baozi grabbed his backpack tightly, and then walked towards his residence.
…
As soon as Ji Li returned to the dormitory, there was a cry of milk at his feet.
Xuebing waited at the door early in the morning, her little tail was dangling, and her front paws were pulling on Ji Li's trouser legs, trying to climb up.
Ji Li was so cute that his heart almost melted. He quickly hugged it in his palm and fondled the little red scar on its nose. "Aren't our snow cakes hungry? I'll make goat milk powder for you, be good."
"Meow~"
Ji Li soaked half a bowl of goat milk powder for the snow cake, and then took a quick bread for himself to eat. One person and one cat lay on the floor, enjoying their dinner.
Xuebing is a greedy little cat, every time she drinks milk, she can't wait to get her face into it.
"Slow down, I won't compete with you." Ji Li bit his dough and said vaguely. He took a video of the snow cake, and then opened his circle of friends.
The original owner has a dull temper, doesn't like to make friends, and has always been deserted on WeChat. Some time ago, Ji Li added a few crew members during the filming break.
As soon as he opened the circle of friends, he saw Cheng Yin, the director of the scene, posted a photo. The text was simple but nympho: ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Yuan Bao is also super handsome! The countdown is ten days! Duck!
Ji Li clicked on the big picture.
Qin Li was wearing a black assassin suit, his figure was very slender, his eyes were sharp, and he was holding a sword to Yuan Jifei on the other side.
It was obviously just a simple still photo, but the powerful aura from the man's demeanor and demeanor almost penetrated the entire screen of the phone.
Ji Li breathed for a few seconds, and after recovering, he clicked a thumbs up and commented with a smile: Brother is so handsome.
Within a few seconds, Cheng Yin replied to him: Ah, little Song Zhao! thanks, thanks! KDL!
"Thank me for what?" Ji Li didn't understand the meaning of the last three letters, so he simply turned off his phone and continued to tease the cat.
…
The next afternoon, Ji Li met Sun Yong in the company office.
He Ling sat on the single sofa, holding a thick stack of scripts in his hand. Seeing Ji Li's figure, he deliberately threw the script heavily on the coffee table, "What a disappointment."
When Ji Li saw the big characters on the title of the first page of the script, his eyes flickered slightly, as if he had thought of something.
Sun Yong glanced at He Ling, who was "mischievous", and called Ji Li to him directly, "Tell me when you are free now, why did you just fall in love with the third male number?"
"I have read the entire script, and the details of the script are very solid. Moreover, the overall role of the five-member protagonist group is relatively large, and the role of the third male lead is not much less. The last few scenes are more critical. Most importantly, I Love this character."
"Don't talk to me about this." Sun Yong waved his hand, dismissively, "Who would not play the leading role? You have to play a supporting role! You just listen to me, the second actor in a costume drama. I will find a way to talk to you. , directly skipped the audition to join the group, and the filming will start around the end of the month."
He didn't have time to read the full script.
All I know is that Ji Li, a newcomer, can't suffer at all if he plays the role of the second male puppet.
"I said, I want to play the male third in the movie, this role is very good." Ji Li insisted on his own ideas.
Seeing that he didn't listen, Sun Yong frowned instantly, and prevaricated, "I'm your manager, can I harm you? The film's investment is not in place, and the film studio said at least two more months of preparation!"
"During the two-month gap, you plan to pick your feet at home?"
Ji Li replied, "I can wait, as long as I don't hit the schedule, I can play some suitable and characteristic small supporting roles in the past two months."
Ji Li believes in his own vision. As long as this movie is shot according to the existing script, it will definitely gain word of mouth after it is released.
Seeing that he refused to let go, Sun Yong's face was very ugly.
I thought it was easy to handle, but I didn't expect it to be a stubborn one who sticks to his own opinion
"It's so noisy, if he is willing to wait, let him wait." He Ling took off his sunglasses, with naked mockery in his eyes, "I'm a fool."
The film preparation and production cycle is long, and the popularity of the release is only about a month. Unlike the puppet web drama, the production is fast, and it can be broadcast every three or four months after it is finished, and the follow-up is still long.
Besides, youth-themed movies? It looks like a scam.
Ji Li is willing to degenerate, willing to shoot a role with the least profit, what to stop him
He used to think that the company wanted to push Ji Li to compete with him, but now it seems that it is completely mediocre.
He Ling glanced at the script on the table, and suddenly had an idea, and deliberately mentioned, "Brother Yong, don't I still need a substitute for my new role? Since you said that Ji Li's appearance is similar to mine, he If there is a vacancy, let him do it, so as to save the crew from having to spend time looking for it."
Turning a newcomer actor valued by the company into his own stand-in figure is a joy to think about.
"It's only been about two months, and the stuntman can still get the crew's salary..." He Ling looked at Ji Li, unable to hide the malicious humiliation in his eyes, "Ji Li, what do you think?"
Sun Yong was silent, thinking about the feasibility of this proposal.
Since Ji Li didn't obey his arrangement, he should secretly let him suffer a little bit and dampen his spirit.
Anyway, as a newcomer, the future is still long, and the initial stage can afford it.
Facing He Ling's verbal provocation, Ji Li just looked at the script on the table again. He confirmed the title on the cover again, and suddenly showed an intriguing smile.
"Okay, I'll join the group as your substitute."
