What Filia Chen is currently filming is CCTV's new annual drama "The Song of the Golden Age". The background of the story is during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. She plays the role of a singer with unparalleled youth.
This TV series lasts for 60 episodes, with an investment of 170 million yuan. It has gathered a large number of domestic stars, including several big-name figures in the film and television industry, so it has attracted much attention in the industry.
Although Filia Chen does not play the leading heroine, her role is also very important, and it is impossible to complete the filming in a short period of time. Moreover, the director who directed this drama is known in the industry for his strict requirements for actors.
"I regret taking this drama"
Filia Chen complained softly: "If I had known earlier, I would have gone to Hong Kong with you to shoot a movie. It would have been very interesting."
When she was filming "The Blues" and "Full House," the entire crew revolved around her and Lu Chen. The service was meticulous and the filming requirements for urban idol dramas were low, so it was naturally a lot easier.
And in the crew of "The Great Song of the Age", Filia Chen is not the number one heroine. It is undoubtedly a fool's dream to expect others to accommodate her.
But this drama is very important for Filia Chen, who is heading towards a comprehensive development in film, television, singing and music. Once it is successfully filmed and aired next year, it will go a long way to improving her status in the industry.
So complaining is just complaining, the film must be filmed seriously.
Lu Chen knew this, so he acted as a psychiatrist in a timely manner to provide comfort and relief. The two of them communicated their feelings over the phone and had a sweet phone call for more than an hour.
It wasn't until the low-battery sound came from her phone that Filia Chen seemed to wake up from a dream and said quickly: "Ah, my phone is almost out of battery. I forgot to tell you something."
"I have a friend in Xiangjiang, whom you should know, named Shu Jing.
"I called her yesterday and mentioned you. She will probably send someone an invitation tomorrow to invite you to a charity dinner. Many people in the circle will be present."
Lu Chen understood it as soon as he heard it.
He started his film career in Hong Kong without any foundation and could be said to be unfamiliar with the place.
Filia Chen obviously wants to bring Lu Chen into the circle of Xiangjiang through Shu Jing's relationship. As long as he knows more useful people, his future development will undoubtedly be much smoother.
The so-called charity dinner is actually a social venue. If you want to enter such an occasion, you need a guide.
Shu Jing is the one who leads the way.
Lu Chen didn't know Shu Jing, but her name was familiar to her.
From the late 1990s to the early 2000s, this Hong Kong singer who debuted as a girl was very active in the pop music scene. She released many hot-selling albums and won countless fans with her youthful and beautiful image and sweet singing voice.
However, when her career reached its peak, Shu Jing married into a wealthy family at a young age and then basically disappeared from the music scene, which was very sad.
However, the year before last, it was suddenly revealed that Shu Jing had divorced and was returning to the music scene.
It's just that it's not as good as it used to be. After she stepped on the stage again, she didn't produce any outstanding works. She is still famous, but her popularity has basically been lost.
In other words, they are the old singers of the past.
In fact, Shu Jing is only 37 years old this year. For a powerful singer, her real golden period is far from over.
But after all, Shu Jing was once a dominant figure in the Hong Kong music scene. Coupled with her more than ten years of career as the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, she has a broad network of contacts in all aspects.
When Filia Chen introduced Lu Chen to Shu Jing, she undoubtedly took a fancy to the latter's network resources.
Filia Chen has known Shu Jing for a long time. When she bought the house in Repulse Bay, it was Shu Jing's recommendation. She got a discounted price through her connections, which can be regarded as a good friendship.
After Shu Jing retired from the music scene, whenever she came to the capital, she would always have tea and chat with Filia Chen.
After ending the call with Filia Chen, Lu Chen's cell phone was already very hot to the touch.
After watching the scenery on the balcony for a while, Lu Chen was about to go back to his room to take a shower and sleep, but his phone rang again.
He answered the phone without thinking and asked with a smile: "What's the matter? Is there anything else you forgot?"
Lu Chen thought it was Filia Chen who changed his cell phone and called again. Unexpectedly, the voice coming from the phone was very strange: "Hello, are you Mr. Lu Chen?"
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment: "Yes, who are you?"
I just heard the other party say: "I'm Shu Jing. I don't know if Fei'er has told you about it, so I'm sorry to bother you."
Lu Chen suddenly realized: "Hello, Sister Jing, I was on the phone with Fei'er just now, and I mentioned you."
Shu Jing spoke very well in Mandarin without much Hong Kong flavor. She said softly and softly: "No wonder the phone call just couldn't be connected. That's it. I want to invite you to the charity dinner scheduled to be held at the Shangri-La Hotel the night after tomorrow.
I wonder if you can give me a favor?"
Lu Chen said quickly: "This is my honor. I have just come to Xiangjiang to develop my career. I will ask Sister Jing to take care of you in the future. I will definitely attend the dinner at Shangri-La Hotel!"
"That's good"
Shu Jing smiled and said: "I will send someone to deliver the invitation to your company tomorrow morning and confirm with you first."
"OK, thanks!"
After a few polite words, Lu Chen hung up the phone.
Lu Chen didn't expect Shu Jing to call him at this time. Through this conversation, he had a good impression of Shu Jing and believed that she was a friend worth making.
This made Lu Chen look forward to the dinner party the day after tomorrow. If nothing unexpected happened, it would be his first step into the Hong Kong entertainment industry, a very important step!
After taking a shower in the bathroom, Lu Chen went to bed to rest.
The next day he got up early, put on a set of sportswear and went out for a run.
In the early morning, there are many people exercising along the shore of Repulse Bay beach, some are running and some are playing ball.
Lu Chen came back from running a few laps and was sweating profusely when he returned home.
After taking a shower and changing into new clothes, Zhang Xiaofang's phone call came.
Lu Chen went downstairs again, got in his car and went out to have breakfast.
Xiangjiang is a gourmet paradise, with a wide variety of breakfast options. The most famous one is Cantonese breakfast. There are also several time-honored teahouse chain stores in the Repulse Bay area, so you don’t have to worry about finding a place.
After breakfast, I went to the studio. It was exactly 9 o'clock.
As soon as Lu Chen arrived at the office, Li Zhen took out a beautiful invitation letter and handed it to him: "This was just sent by Miss Shu Jing this morning."
Delivered so quickly?
Lu Chen was a little surprised.
In fact, Li Zhen was more surprised. She didn't expect that Lu Chen was actually related to Shu Jing. ——
