Among the bars in Houhai, Wangyoucao is not the largest in terms of scale or reputation.￥f,.
But the business has always been good and we have a group of regular customers.
Before the owner Chen Jianhao opened the bar, he was considered a well-known person in the industry. His connections and reputation were quite good, so he was able to invite several celebrities to come over to support him and enhance the reputation and style of Forgettable Grass.
However, the ones he can invite are basically second- and third-tier singers or even lower-ranked singers, which is undoubtedly an extra surprise for the guests, because Chen Jianhao never relies on invited insiders as advertising gimmicks, so naturally he also
There will be no increase in fees or even ticket sales.
This is very different from other colleagues who regard celebrity artists as cash cows.
So it’s not unusual to see celebrity singers performing at Forget-the-Wang Cao, but the situation at night was completely different!
Because on the stage is Filia Chen, a diva with a very high status in the industry!
Under normal circumstances, she would never appear in a small place like Wangyoucao. In the entire Houhai, Blue Lotus may be the only one who is barely qualified to invite her to visit, and it depends on luck.
Now Filia Chen was not only invited by Lu Chen, but she also sang a fascinating piece.
Singing so beautifully and emotionally!
"From now on, rivers are just legends, and the heaven and earth melt and the stars are swallowed up!"
When Filia Chen finished singing the last two lines of lyrics, and when Lu Chen's piano accompaniment only left a lingering sound, the more than two hundred guests in the Forgettable Grass could no longer restrain their excitement and excitement, and they all applauded in unison!
Their enthusiastic cheers seemed to lift the roof off and spread through the glass windows to the pedestrian street outside.
Many pedestrians stopped and turned to look this way.
Such a lively scene is very rare in Houhai bars.
Lu Chen stood up and looked at Filia Chen and smiled.
Although there is no dialogue, everything is said without saying anything.
Filia Chen bowed slightly in a reserved manner and said softly: "Thank you."
"Sing one more song!"
Some guests begged, even begged: "It sounds so good!"
Such an opportunity is so rare!
His words resonated with many people, and the applause lasted for a long time.
But Filia Chen was already enjoying herself. She smiled and shook her head. She waved to Lu Chen.
Lu Chen knew that she was leaving and saying goodbye to him.
He nodded.
Filia Chen blinked, with a gentle smile on her pretty face. Then she turned around and walked off the stage with light steps, as if she were an elf in a dream and disappeared from people's sight, leaving behind an extremely graceful figure.
Lu Chen did not see Filia Chen off, nor did he leave with her.
Because her identity was exposed, it was not appropriate to stay here any longer. She came together but left together to avoid boring scandals from happening again. After all, there were so many people at the scene taking out their mobile phones to take pictures.
The customers in Forgettable Grass are considered to be of good quality, but they still violate the rules of the bar when they are excited.
Photography and filming are not allowed here, but the waiters are unable to persuade so many violators.
Filia Chen’s charm is so powerful!
Lu Chen didn't need to worry about her leaving. Assistants and bodyguards were all there, and there was a small door to leave the bar backstage.
Although there is a little regret, tonight is already perfect for him.
Lu Chen turned around and said to the disappointed customers: "Sister Fei is gone. Then I will sing a few more songs."
Everyone's disappointed mood was instantly reversed.
You can't be too greedy. Being able to hear Filia Chen perform live and it's a new work is already a great blessing. You can't force it too much.
Soon Lu Chen will still be there and will continue to sing, which is enough to satisfy your ears!
So the commotion in the bar subsided in the blink of an eye, and the guests sat down again.
Some people are also secretly speculating that Lu Chen and Filia Chen have such a good relationship
Is the scandal between the two true?
…
"Is this true?"
At the same moment, in an office of the Ultron Film and Television Production Company in the Jinhui Building, more than ten kilometers away from Houhai Wangyoucao Bar, Yan Chengyi stared at the video screen on the computer screen with an expression of disbelief.
Ultron Film and Television is a medium-sized film and television drama production company. It has been established for 15 years. It is relatively well-known in the industry and has invested in and filmed many TV dramas with good ratings.
Yan Chengyi is one of the TV series directors signed by Ultron Film and Television.
This middle-aged and elderly man, who is about to reach the age of 10, has a tall build and a loud voice. He has thick eyebrows, big eyes and a square face. His dyed black hair is neatly combed, and he has a somewhat majestic air.
Anyone who is familiar with Director Yan knows that he pays great attention to his personal image and rarely makes a gaffe.
But now just watching a video, Yan Chengyi seemed to have seen a ghost and asked in a voice: "Is it really not a stunt?"
He just finished shooting this morning and came back from the location. He went to the company to work overtime in the evening to deal with the work accumulated during this period. At the same time, he also had to select several actors for the roles from the database.
As a result, his assistant recommended him this newcomer who was very popular recently.
The other party's name is Lu Chen.
Yan Chengyi had no impression of Lu Chen. He had been busy filming the TV series "Love in the City" for half a year and usually had no time to pay attention to the gossip news in the industry.
But the video his assistant gave him instantly had the most profound impact on Lu Chen.
In the video, the scene of Lu Chen stripping off his clothes, throwing a block, and then kicking the assailant down with one blow was so shocking that it felt unreal, like he was filming some explosive action movie.
It's not that Yan Chengyi doubted the authenticity of the video. What happened in Hangzhou was so sensational that he had heard about it even if he was busy at work, but he had never seen the video of the scene until today.
I was shocked immediately.
Yan Chengyi's assistant smiled and said: "Boss, of course this is true. It made the headlines of many newspapers and was ranked at the top of the hot topics list on Inspur Blog. It is still very popular today!"
Yan Chengyi smiled bitterly and reached out to comb his hair, sighing: "According to you young people, I am really about to go out. I really need to pay more attention to the Internet."
He also has a V number in the Inspur Blog, but he basically doesn’t use it, and his assistants take care of it.
The assistant complimented: "Boss, you are not out of date, you are still young!"
Yan Chengyi smiled and waved his hand. He did not flatter his assistant very much. He asked tentatively: "Guo Zi, do you want him to try out the role of Chen Yaoyang?"
The assistant replied calmly: "Yes, I think Lu Chen is very suitable for the role of Chen Yaoyang."
As Yan Chengyi's most capable and trustworthy assistant, Guo Zi is often approached by some third- and fourth-tier or even fifth-, sixth- and seventh-tier starlets and entertainers, who want to find a role in Yan Chengyi's TV series.
If the timing is right and the role is right, Guo Zi doesn't mind recommending it to Director Yan. He can get a lot of benefits and even extra enjoyment from it, which can be regarded as the biggest source of extra income.
Yan Chengyi actually knew it well, but Guo Zi knew how to measure things and never made arbitrary decisions on his behalf or exceeded the duties of an assistant, so he was happy to pretend to be confused.
If you don't give your subordinates some sweetness and benefits, who will be willing to do things loyally?
But the role of Chen Yaoyang is different. It is an important supporting role at the beginning of the second season of "Love in the City". It affects the ratings of this series to a certain extent, so he has no choice but to be cautious!
"Love in the City" is the key weekend drama of Ultron Film and Television Production Company this year, with huge investment.
The so-called weekend dramas refer to dramas broadcast on Saturday and Sunday nights, usually one episode per night.
After entering the new century, the domestic film and television drama industry has been greatly impacted by foreign culture. Popular fashions from Europe, America, Japan and South Korea have become popular in the country, bringing great changes to the entire industry.
The emergence of weekend dramas is a good example. It combines the characteristics of American dramas and Korean dramas, is produced in the form of filming and broadcasting, and uses ratings to determine the number of episodes to be shot.
If the ratings are high and the audience likes it, then shoot more. After the first season, there will be a second and third season.
As long as the TV commercials sell well, there will be no problem in filming for ten seasons!
But if the ratings are not good, it may be canceled after only ten episodes, and it will be unfinished without any discussion.
For film and television production companies, there are advantages and disadvantages to filming weekend dramas, but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
Yan Chengyi is the director of "Love in the City". So far, he has filmed all 24 episodes of the first season and broadcast 18 episodes on the TV station. The ratings are pretty good, at least worthy of investors.
Influenced by American dramas, the filming requirements for weekend dramas are high and short-term capital investment is large. In order to control risks, film and television production companies like Ultron will bring in investors to share the pressure.
"Love in the City" has been confirmed to start filming, and the company has put forward higher requirements. The screenwriter has added more brand-new characters to the new script, so selecting actors has become Yan Chengyi's most important task now.
What he was worried about was that Guo Zi lost his sense of proportion and caused trouble for his work.
This is something Director Yan cannot bear!
"Boss, I don't even know this Lu Chen"
Guo Zi quickly complained: "Isn't Chen Yaoyang's position as a young and handsome policeman? Do you think Lu Chen's skills are very good? He is 100% trained in martial arts, taekwondo or free fighting, and"
He controlled the mouse and opened another video: "Look at his personal image again!"
What Guo Zi opened was the music video "Lovers Are Not Full" shot by Lu Chen and msn.
In this music video, Lu Chen plays the role of a male college student who plays opposite Mu Xiaochu, which is considered a true performance.
His sunny handsomeness and natural acting made Yan Chengyi's eyes light up.
The director made a decision on the spot: "Then contact this Lu Chen and ask him to participate in the audition the day after tomorrow!"
Yan Chengyi felt that Lu Chen had a temperament that suited his requirements.
Chen Yaoyang is him!——
