As he spoke, Wu Di was about to leave. Han Jingjing also wiped her mouth and planned to follow. Director Wang was stunned for a moment and said hurriedly: "Hey, Xiao Wu, don't leave!"
"Although I can't play the leading role, I have other roles here that are quite suitable for you. Do you want to consider them?"
"What role?"
"Is it also a guest appearance?"
If it was a cameo, Wu Di would have to refuse. He has made a cameo in Zhang Feng's movie recently. One or two guest appearances are okay, but too many cameos in a short period of time can easily give people the impression that they are not doing it.
It feels like serious business, just messing around and eating.
"It's not a guest appearance. Don't worry. You are the leading actor that I was optimistic about from the beginning. How could I send you to play a guest role?"
"Starring, still starring."
Starring, that can be discussed.
After all, it is a movie. If there are more scenes, it can be busy for about ten days and a half. I finally found something to do for myself.
What's more, this is a popular love movie. If it is performed well, it will once again create a strong sense of presence in the audience.
"Does Director Wang want me to play the role of a scumbag ex-boyfriend?"
Boss Wu had stated in advance that he had read the original work. In that case, it was normal to make some guesses. Director Wang immediately put on a straight face: "No."
"You have such a good image and I can't bear to play a scumbag!"
"It's the boss."
"Since you have read the original work, you should know that when the heroine is handling the case, there is a boss client."
"The boss needs an actor with a good image and temperament. I had other candidates at the beginning. After seeing you, they didn't need to negotiate."
"You are the one!"
That boss?
The image is indeed good, and the performance is not too difficult, and it is easy for the audience to like him. Director Wang is also the number one person who keeps his wealth to others.
Wu Di absolutely believed that before seeing Wu Di, Director Wang had absolutely no such idea, and after seeing Wu Di, it was only based on the fact that Wu Di, a newcomer with certain box office appeal, was still the best director in the new industry, even though it was in name only.
, but the name is also very nice to the outside world.
Such new and cutting-edge filmmakers have come to support my films. Not to mention the box office benefits, they are also good-looking in terms of appearance!
You have to know that although Director Wang has many masterpieces under his belt, he still spends most of his time in the TV drama industry.
If you look at this movie of his, the entire cast is still relatively large in the TV drama circle, and there are not many people who only focus on movies.
As for Wu Di, the new best director, he is a well-established filmmaker and has been in the limelight for a while.
People like this come to participate in my director Wang's movie. Isn't this enough to prove my strength? Look at how awesome my connections are!
…………
"why are you laughing?"
"I've been laughing since just now. Is this so funny?"
Fortunately, it was Wu Di who was driving. Otherwise, Wu Di would have suspected that Han Jingjing, who was giggling endlessly, would drive the car onto the sidewalk.
"Of course I'm laughing at you."
"Tell me about you. How funny it is. I thought I could be the leading actor, but I didn't expect it. I was sent away as the leading actor and that's it."
"Fortunately, you are still in high spirits. This time, you can't be excited anymore!"
"Who are you? Why are you happy when your boss is defeated? Even if you are no longer my assistant, you can't be so heartless!"
"Besides, Director Wang also said that he didn't let me play the leading role because I was too handsome. Am I bragging on my own?"
Han Jingjing looked at Wu Di's boasting and showed contempt.
I haven’t seen you for a few days. Why is this man so greasy?
Since he was indeed the boss now, and the quality of the company's operations was closely related to her as an investor, Han Jingjing did not want to continue to undermine Wu Di's self-confidence.
I'm a little oily, but it's good to have confidence. Otherwise, how can you be a boss? There are so many employees under you, but they are still waiting for food!
As long as you get more dramas, shoot more commercials, and make more money, who will pay attention to your private words and deeds?
The result is that Han Jingjing no longer pays attention to it, but Boss Wu has more on his mind. It's such a good movie, why wouldn't the director let him play the male lead?
What a great opportunity, it was such a pity that it slipped away through my hands like this.
What's even more pity is that what Zhang Feng said is right. It's time for him to find another movie to shoot. Since he can't be the male lead in this one, he doesn't need too much preparation.
Even that can't be considered his own work, it's just a passing photo shoot, and the performance is not difficult. Wu Di can handle it by himself without asking for help from the system.
What Wu Di really needs now is a movie starring himself. There will be no suitable large-scale productions in a short time, and he doesn't want to try it himself.
And the director rejected the romance film route. In this case, does he have any better choice?
Taking stock of the resources at hand, the big names introduced by Lao Zhang have no new films to make in the near future. As a result, Wu Di can only continue to try new things.
But at this moment, a phone call from Simple changed Wu Di's development path.
"Boss Wu, here we come!"
"It's really here!"
"Boss Wu, you have a new film appointment, come back to the company quickly!"
What movie is it? Why is he so excited?
Wu Di was complaining in his heart, but his hands were not behind him. He turned the steering wheel and turned in the direction of the company.
Ordinarily, Yuan Dafei is a very experienced agent and he is quite old. Even if there is a new film appointment, he does not need to be so excited!
Besides, is the current Boss Wu the same as before? The current Boss Wu has made films by Lao Zhang and Brother Hai. These are all top domestic directors.
Wu Di can be reused by them at the same time. I have never seen any big scenes. It seems that I will give Da Fei some advice in the future.
They are all people who have seen big scenes. Even if they encounter a good movie, they still have to be calm and show their own style.
Be more steady.
You see, Boss Wu is very calm now, but why is his step a little shaky?
Boss Wu himself didn't feel anything at all. Only Han Jingjing, who was following him, could tell at a glance.
That's it, aren't you excited?
I have the nerve to tell others!
Boss Wu came to the company in person to provide on-site guidance. As soon as he appeared in the office area, he immediately attracted a series of attention and greetings from the employees.
The company has expanded recently, and some newcomers have never seen this handsome boss. Now that they have seen it, they don't want to take a closer look.
Although it doesn't seem to be anything good to see.
Now Boss Wu can't feel the eager gazes of the little girls. In addition, his appearance is really not that elegant.
The steps are still a little staggering. From a distance, it looks like he is drunk and is walking smoothly!
Is there any need to be so excited?
Fortunately, someone just spoke loudly and laughed at others for being overly excited.
In any case, Wu Di's various weird behaviors gave Han Jingjing a lot of fun. She made no secret that this was the happiest day for her since she started making movies.
Sure enough, it is more fun to stay with Boss Wu.
Otherwise, should I continue to be an assistant?
At this moment, Boss Wu couldn't care about anything else and just rushed into the office. I don't know why, but after answering Yuan Dafei's call, he was really a little excited.
Originally, he didn't take Da Fei's quarrel to heart, because in his opinion, Da Fei wouldn't have any good scripts.
Labyrinth was a completely hit-and-miss script. The reason Da Fei was chosen to write this script was entirely because Xiao Qi was also a newcomer who was not favored by the industry. He was in dire straits, had no start-up capital, and had no way to realize his film ideals.
This gave Wu Di a chance.
But now, even if there is such a newcomer, I am afraid that he will come to Boss Wu directly and will not go through Brother Da Fei.
However, there must be a reason for such ups and downs of mood!
Wu Di couldn't help but think of this.
And when he opened the door to the office, a new world indeed opened in front of him...
There were not many people in the office, only Yuan Dafei, who was as excited as a monkey, and a woman who looked quite sunny.
Judging from his age, he is not particularly young, but he is not too old either. According to modern people's maintenance level, he is probably in his forties.
At least, she is definitely not on the same level as Ms. Gu Mei.
Gu Dao is middle-aged who looks quite old, not middle-aged in the modern sense. Of course there is a difference.
How to tell the difference?
It's roughly equivalent to those mother models on a certain website. The current feeling of this lady is just like those mother models. She is obviously not that old, but she doesn't look young anymore.
As for Director Gu, he is an authentic mother model audience.
Besides, compared to Director Gu, this lady makes people feel much better. If nothing else, you see, she always smiles, is so kind and natural.
"Boss Wu, this is Director Xiao Lu."
Xiao Lu?
Wait a minute, Wu Di seems to be a little impressed.
There are actually not many well-known directors in the domestic entertainment industry, and there are even fewer directors named Lu. Could it be Lu Dao, who specializes in urban romance films?
oh!
This is really a twists and turns, and another village has a bright future!
Wu Di stepped forward and greeted him warmly. Xiao Lu showed a satisfied smile and nodded repeatedly: "It's really good, his temperament is very good."
"Da Fei, this is exactly the person I need!"
"You really understand me!"
Director Xiao Lu opened his mouth like this, and Yuan Dafei immediately puffed up his chest and stood up.
How about it?
Director Xiao Lu said that I am capable, don’t you still believe it?
Although few people have questioned him in front of him, everyone is just a member of the industry, so who doesn’t know who he is?
Da Fei knew very well what they were thinking.
Besides, no matter which circle you are in, the most important thing is to be a little conscious and progressive. If others don't arrange work for you, as a registered agent of the company, don't you know how to find some work yourself?
"Boss Wu, Director Xiao Lu is my senior sister. I am from the acting department and she is from the directing department. Although they are in different departments, they are in the same school."
"Brother Da Fei, you are actually from the acting department?"
Han Jingjing looked at him with an expression of disbelief, Da Fei shook his head: "No way?"
"Let me tell you, I have a serious academic background. When the company gets more business, maybe I can make a few guest appearances for fun!"
"Don't underestimate me!"
"Don't dare, don't dare, you can play now!"
"Why wait until later?"
Although Wu Di knew that Yuan Dafei also graduated from a drama school, he did not know that Dafei majored in acting.
Not only Han Jingjing was shocked by the news, but Wu Di was even more shocked!
Acting department?
Can this still work?
Is it like Da Fei?
Could it be that the current acting department doesn’t care about face anymore?
The answer is indeed the same. In 2010, and even in the years before that, the film academy really didn’t care about faces that much.
You can tell just by looking at Da Fei's age. I'm afraid it was early 2000 when he went to college, or even earlier. In that era, because the drama school had an interview process, it was of course unavoidable to judge your appearance. After all, you will have to eat in the future.
This meal also depends on your appearance.
How is it possible not to look at faces when selecting a reserve team of actors?
It's inevitable, everything is inevitable.
However, on the premise of looking at faces, it is true that they don’t look at faces that much.
After all, the interview is not a talent show, it also depends on talent, such as opera and music, which can be regarded as big bonus points.
It would be even better if you have some dance skills.
And some of these people may not necessarily be outstanding in appearance. If it were ten years later, maybe these people would still not be able to be selected, no matter how good their basic skills were.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Because at that time, the competition in the entertainment industry had basically entered a fierce stage. Moreover, the concept that appearance is justice has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Without a good face, no matter how talented you are, others won't want to know you. What's the use of getting to know you deeply?
Places like the film school are naturally the quickest to understand this trend. Therefore, when selecting a reserve team of actors, of course, more emphasis must be placed on the looks of the actors.
For someone like Da Fei, there will definitely be no chance.
It can also be said that he has caught up with the good times.
It has indeed caught up.
Otherwise, how could we be in the same class as Director Xiao Lu?
You have to know that in this circle, classmates and classmates are human resources and are very important!
If you don't have the corresponding learning experience, it will be very difficult to get along in this circle. Others are believers in the idea that the wealth should not go to outsiders.
If you have a good friend from the same discipline, why not use you as a layman?
Da Fei was able to bring Director Xiao Lu here precisely because of his classmate relationship. Even though they looked at their ages, they had never studied in the same time and space.
They can’t even be considered seniors, but who can let everyone graduate from the same school?
This is enough. This is what the industry pays attention to.
Looking at it this way, Wu Di actually has disadvantages in developing in the entertainment industry. Don't forget, he is a group performer and is not noble at all.
He didn’t come from a major and had no experience in acting. If he hadn’t hooked up with Xiao Zhang from the beginning and had external support, I’m afraid that no matter how good his acting was, he would still have to go through a lot of ups and downs.
Of course, basically no one will mention this now. Xiao Wu has already won the director award, one of the top three, which is pretty cool when you think about it.
