Ye Shuang always knew that her cousin was miserable, but most people in this world were miserable. Before seeing it with her own eyes, it was really difficult for Ye Shuang to have a concrete idea of Luo Che's situation.
Ou Qianru flew back and forth at home and abroad twice in three days, and the gifts she brought to the relatives of the Ye family were red wine from French wineries and pure handmade Belgian chocolates.
But what about cousin Luo Che? !
On the contrary, the Ye family rarely sees this serious relative a few times a year. It is basically only during the Spring Festival that they can take a quick face-to-face. Usually, when asked, they are taking artists to audition, taking artists to acupoints, and taking artists to the set...
After meeting her today, Ye Shuang finally understood that there was a reason for her cousin's refusal to marry Ou Qianru before she became famous. The two have the same career and the same starting point, but now their status is in the sky. … Unless you are determined to eat soft food, a normal man will feel uncomfortable.
After being silent for a while, Ye Shuang patted Luo Che on the shoulder: "I just arrived today, and I happen to invite Director Zhou's crew to dinner tonight. See...Brother Luo doesn't mind sharing the table, why don't you just join us and save me a meal."
Luo Che didn't know that this was Ye Shuang's politeness, saying that he was saving money for a meal, but in fact, it was showing that he owed a favor from Director Zhou.
Generally speaking, people you don't know will not be pulled in casually at dinner parties. If Ye Shuang cherishes Yu Yu, it's not that there will be opportunities for Luo Che to get in touch with the crew slowly, but letting in the sidelines and expressing his position are two different things... If you don't like Luo Che, at least you will be more cautious when evaluating. Even if you don't use it yourself, you will introduce a few other avenues.
As for the former, if Ye Shuang didn't intervene in the situation, it is very likely that no one would take Luo Che seriously at all. If Luo Che didn't have a bright performance, he would soon be forgotten by others.
Thinking of this, Luo Che, who understood Ye Shuang's meaning, was naturally very grateful: "Of course I don't mind, no matter how many people can ask for a meal with Director Zhou, but will it be too much trouble for you?"
"It's okay. It's troublesome if my family says anything."
Ye Shuang sighed, and after saying a few more words, she made an excuse to pee out of the way, and then found an empty corridor to make a call - she hadn't arranged it at all, but it was for her cousin. Even if there is no arrangement, there must be an arrangement.
"Dinner?! No need, you don't know Jinghu City well, and besides, the crew lives in villas, we can just buy vegetables and get a fish hot pot, it's lively and easy..." Director Zhou still didn't understand what Ye Shuang meant, and after listening to it on the phone, Ye Shuang casually declined the invitation after the invitation.
Ye Shuang thought for a while, she had never learned euphemistic rhetoric, and besides, no matter how euphemistic she was, she couldn't compare to the veterans in the sensual world of the entertainment industry, so she cut straight to the point: "Eating is the second priority, the key is that my acquaintance is working as a manager .The artist under him has no qualifications and works and is worrying about how to make the file look better. Director Zhou, see if you can help me."
Director Zhou: "..."
It was also the first time for Director Zhou to meet someone who asked him for a role so directly and calmly.
No matter how famous a director is, he still has three or five relatives, two or four friends. Even though Director Zhou claims to strive for excellence, he has no connections in his films. This is impossible no matter which crew it is placed on.
For a film lineup of a general scale, the top ten and subsequent lists of the cast are basically gifts, such as setting up relationship accounts for investors, promoting newcomers and old faces for familiar film and television companies, or friends of relatives or friends. Any relatives want to join in the fun...
Anyway, a small supporting role that doesn’t even have a name will not hinder the quality of the film, and besides, everyone will not use people with too many gaps to embarrass their recommenders... In case there is really a strong fortress. , Director Zhou naturally didn't have to save face for the other party.
But no matter what kind of person it is. Fortress people are always tactful and reserved when they join the crew... not only because they are afraid that Director Zhou will mind, but also because everyone wants to save face.
Suddenly, Ye Shuang came out with such a straight-forward routine, and Director Zhou really couldn't react for a while.
"Help... well, let me think about it..." Director Zhou forced himself to ponder for half a minute before recovering. After thinking about it, anyway, the scenes where extras are required to appear are all temporary extras. It's okay to add a leader who has lines at will, I'm afraid the other party wants a character with a complete personality.
So after thinking about it, Director Zhou decided to clarify the matter first, "You just said that your acquaintance is an agent? I've almost halfway through the filming of this scene. It's easy for you to insert a trick, but it's impossible to insert a role." The dragon set is used as a human head or as a background prop. The characters are involved in the composition of the plot.
"Besides, even if I really use that person, the artist will benefit the most, and your acquaintance may not be able to get the credit..." Director Zhou also understandably said: "Before you talk to me, you should think clearly before you talk to me, don't waste time Strength, the benefits don't come to your own people." Unless Ye Shuang plans to use his own face to win roles for the other party in the future, a manager without connections will not be competitive at all.
Director Zhou meant to ask Ye Shuang to think carefully and think about it in the long run... When it wasn't about filming, Director Zhou actually didn't have any airs of being a director. Ye Shuang was young, so he just made a few casual remarks as if he was a junior.
Ye Shuang understood that Director Zhou had good intentions, but what she meant was to help her cousin get started, and the long-term issue was her own business.
The line is drawn, the way is given, and the role is coming... As the saying goes, there is a three-point love when meeting. If Luo Che is really capable, relying on this time being at the same table with a few big names, and getting acquainted with Ye Shuang in the crew, In the future, when others have the same choice, if they happen to meet Luo Che, they will naturally give priority to the people he brings.
And if Luo Che is still unable to get ahead after being hooked up like this, it means that he is really not suitable for this job, and it is better to find another job as soon as possible.
Ye Shuang explained her thoughts in detail, and Director Zhou understood the situation. The role is still secondary, that is, since he brought it out this time, he casually gave a chance to show his face to make the manager's face less ugly, and the main thing was to introduce his so-called acquaintance at night.
"All right, all right, if you want to treat us, can we be afraid of spending money for you?!" Director Zhou didn't care: "Just bring the actor over and let the scene director arrange it for him. You can send a text message after you've decided on a place to eat at night. .”
After finishing with Director Zhou, Ye Shuang stood for a while and used her mobile phone to search for local gourmet group purchases in Jinghu City. She paid the bill on her mobile phone and settled on a restaurant with private rooms that is not too high or low. Director Zhou notified the main creator and other actors by the way.
After finishing, put the phone back in his pocket, Ye Shuang put on the sunglasses and went back to the audition room. After a while, the audition was over, and everyone was sitting and chatting together. The fat man in the middle who seemed to be the person in charge of the interview saw Ye Shuang's return and raised his voice. He raised his voice and hurriedly shouted: "You are the only one left, come to the audition, and decide on the role after the audition."
In fact, this is just going through the motions. Who has heard of waiting for someone to audition? ! They have basically finalized Ye Shuang, but they just pretend to let her join the team before announcing the list.
"Audition?!" Ye Shuang looked in the direction of Luo Che who couldn't laugh or cry, turned his eyes back and waved his hands: "Everyone probably misunderstood, I came here to pick up people, not to audition."
"It's not an audition, why did you get the number?" Fatty was unhappy: "Do you know how much time we waste waiting for you? Newcomers must be humble and sincere, and firmly grasp every opportunity...Take off your sunglasses and come to try this scene in the script. "
Ye Shuang didn't mean to take off her sunglasses, and smiled lightly, "Sorry, but I don't really know how to act." Before the fat man could say anything, he said to Luo Che, "Brother Luo is leaving! I have booked a place for dinner."
Booking a place for dinner means that you have already made an appointment to meet Director Zhou. Of course, Luo Che could hear Ye Shuang's subtext. It is such a rare and precious opportunity. Influential works, at best, can be used for money laundering.
Grabbing the entertainer he brought, Luo Che strode away behind Ye Shuang without hesitation, not even paying attention to the fat man's angry threats behind him.
Ye Shuang didn't shake his head at Luo Che until he walked out of the clubhouse: "Brother Luo, you can really bear it. This crew just relies on their casual attitude in finding people. Even if you mix up characters and use them for your work resume, I'm afraid you can only become a black history."
"Who in the entertainment circle doesn't have a dark history?" Luo Che smiled, as if he had gotten used to it.
Ye Shuang glanced at him and didn't say much.
Luo Che is willing to patiently stick to this kind of low-level crew, willing to bow his head gratefully to accept the help of a newcomer from his younger generation, and even take over the obscene works that he didn't need to get involved in, and take his artists to work hard outside... But he can reduce The bottom line is to accept so many things, but the only thing she refuses to accept is the help from Ou Qianru.
One must know that if Ou Qianru took Luo Che out for a month or two as her fiancé, even if the latter could not achieve Ou Qianru's fame immediately, at least it would be much better than it is now.
But one does not want to be said to be attached to a woman, and the other also wants to help him maintain a man's self-esteem. As a result, the two of them had to suffer for their face, Luo Che ended up in a poor situation like the leader of the grassroots class, while Ou Qianru couldn't bear to see her...
Outsiders are willing to show shame, so it is necessary to endure so hard in front of his own woman
Ye Shuang didn't understand men's self-esteem, so she didn't understand it at all. Anyway, it's her own relative, no matter how rebellious she is in the second year, she has to help wave the flag.
The little artist who was following Luo Che didn't understand why he left the audition venue so suddenly, he hesitated to speak and was about to ask a question when a small car next to them stopped next to the three of them and honked the horn.
Then the rear window slid down, and the little artist screamed as soon as the person inside showed half of his face.
"Luo Tianwang?!"
