Lu Yuan was stunned and looked at the two people in front of him in confusion.
One of them, named Director Gu, was in his forties, wearing a Yankees baseball cap, and he looked quite gentle, like an intellectual. The other was in his twenties, more like an assistant, and led the Cavaliers.
The overall championship truck hat.
These two people looked like they were not the same type of people as the migrant workers who were feasting and drinking here at this time.
"Sorry, we seem a bit abrupt, so let me introduce myself first. My name is Gu Chuang, and I am a director." He then pointed to the young man next to him, "This is my assistant, my name is Gu Chuang."
Yang Zhen, haven’t I asked you, sir?”
"My name is Lu Yuan." Lu Yuan didn't quite understand what they meant at this time, but seeing that they didn't have any malicious intent and their attitudes were quite good, he didn't feel any resistance in his heart.
"Hello Mr. Lu, it's like this. Recently, a big boss has invested in the filming of a TV series. We are currently casting. Since you are a young man, you also know that all kinds of bad movies are popular nowadays. A very popular star,
I don’t have much acting skills, but my salary is tens of millions
So, as a director, I want to find some newcomers from the private sector to act. I have been observing Mr. Lu for a long time, and I feel that Mr. Lu is quite suitable for the protagonist of our drama, so,
Mr. Lu might as well think about it," Gu Chuang said.
Lu Yuan was a little stunned. This was a bit too fake.
I had just carried cement bags from the construction site for most of the day. I was covered in dust and few ordinary people looked at me.
But at this time, someone suddenly came over to me and told me that he wanted to be the leading actor in the crew. Only this fool would believe it.
"Haha, Mr. Lu, you don't think this is a trick, do you?" Gu Chuang seemed to have guessed Lu Yuan's idea, and smiled, "Then let me tell you straight, in fact, this time the invitation is free.
It's me who makes people eat."
As he spoke, Gu Chuang pointed in a circle and said, "This is the shed I specially built for you. You can eat the food ordered from the hotel for free."
Lu Yuan was stunned, it turned out that these were all done by them.
"The reason why we do this is actually to find you." Gu Chuang said.
"Ah?" Lu Yuan looked at Gu Chuang in confusion, wondering what they were going to do.
"Because the male protagonist of our drama is a down-and-out rich second generation. He used to live a very extravagant life. Then something happened to his family, and he became a pariah overnight. He lived a miserable life.
Although he has lived a hard life, he still has the temperament of the rich second generation in the past. In other words, when acting, he has to play a down-and-out loser.
But I have to perform a kind of aristocratic temperament, which requires very high acting skills. Therefore, I specially built this shed near the construction site and invited the workers to come and eat for free. Those who can come here to eat must be from the construction site.
We are migrant workers. We just want to find someone with a natural aristocratic temperament among these truly poor people. Fortunately, we found you, Mr. Lu."
When Gu Chuang said this, he took a sip of water, paused, and continued, "Mr. Lu, you should be a migrant worker doing hard work, but you give me a very different feeling from others. You are not impatient or impatient.
His gestures naturally reveal a noble connotation.
Your behavior and movements are as gentle as the floating clouds in the sky, and every move is as if it is flowing water. Most people may not be able to see it, but I can see at a glance that you are different. I feel that no one is more suitable to play the leading role than you. I hope
Mr. Lu can promise me."
After hearing this, Lu Yuan felt that Gu Chuang really didn't look like a liar anymore.
Filming?
Lu Yuan really had never thought about such a thing.
But Lu Yuan also knows that filming makes more money than carrying cement bags.
What’s more, he’s the male protagonist?
"Mr. Lu, don't worry about the salary. Even if you are a newcomer, your salary will be a little lower than that of a star, but it will definitely be more than one million." Gu Chuang said.
Of course, more than one million was nothing to the former Lu Yuan.
But for me now, that is really a huge number.
Especially since he was unjustly accused of stealing a dress last time, Lu Yuan felt the importance of having money.
Only with money can people respect him, and can he protect Zhou Yun from being bullied!
"Okay." Lu Yuan took a deep breath and nodded.
"Okay, Mr. Lu, you get in the car with us first. I'll take you to the set, get familiar with the environment, and then sign the contract." Gu Chuang looked very happy.
Yes, after all, for a drama, the protagonist is the most important. Now that the male protagonist has been confirmed, of course he is happy.
Sure enough, there was a black car parked at the door. The brand was quite low-key, Buick LaCrosse.
I got in the car and drove towards Jincheng Suburban Film and Television City.
Half an hour later, the car turned into a large yard. The yard was very large and filled with various shooting supplies and props, as well as some sets and people coming and going.
"Well, Lu Yuan, you go first into the building and wait for me in the lounge inside. I'll go see if the outdoor scenes in the crew have been set up. I'll be here soon. By the way, you have this sign. It's there when you enter the building.
Security, only the crew members have a sign and can enter freely."
After getting out of the car, Gu Chuang handed Lu Yuan a small sign and pointed to a building in the south of the yard.
That building is where the crew and actors rest and rehearse during filming.
Lu Yuan nodded and came to the building.
The lounge is on the first floor of the building. When Lu Yuan walked in, there were many people inside.
Most of them are very fashionable in their attire, and they look like they are from the entertainment industry.
Women's makeup is exquisite, and men also wear makeup.
Moreover, the status of these people can also be seen from the location distribution.
On the sofa in the middle, an extremely beautiful young woman was sitting there with her legs crossed, and next to her stood an assistant-like woman in a professional skirt.
Everyone around her looked at her.
When this young woman spoke, everyone looked at her and said that when she told a joke, everyone around her would also laugh.
Obviously, she is the center here, and she seems to be a star, but Lu Yuan doesn't know her, after all, Lu Yuan doesn't pay attention to these things at all.
When Lu Yuan came in, everyone inside was listening to what the young woman said, and few people noticed Lu Yuan coming in.
Lu Yuan stood quietly by the wall without disturbing anyone.
"What's going on? How did this person get in!" Suddenly, a woman appeared in front of Lu Yuan, looking up and down at Lu Yuan with a pair of disgusted eyes.
This woman was also very young and pretty, with a baby face. But when she saw Lu Yuan dressed in dirty migrant worker uniforms, she even covered her nose.
No one paid attention to Lu Yuan originally, and Lu Yuan had no intention of being noticed. He just listened to Gu Chuang's words and waited quietly here for Gu Chuang to come back.
But now that this woman called him, everyone's attention suddenly shifted to Lu Yuan.
"Who is this?"
"Dressed like this, aren't they from our crew?"
"Migrant workers at nearby construction sites? Drive them out, these people have made this place dirty!"
Suddenly, everyone showed displeasure.
"Ah, I'm here to apply for an actor job." Lu Yuan said, taking out the sign that Gu Chuang gave him just now.
He didn't say that he was the leading actor. After all, the contract hadn't been signed yet. In theory, he was not the leading actor yet.
When she saw this sign, the woman was speechless.
"You're probably just a temporary extra." The woman murmured, "Really, an extra came here to rest. Well, go get me a cup of coffee!"
The woman pointed to the coffee machine in the corner of the lounge and said.
Lu Yuan frowned, he didn't like this woman's attitude.
But Lu Yuan himself is not the kind of person with a bad temper. He just wants to have a cup of coffee. It doesn't matter. Besides, if he films here again in the future, he will inevitably work with these people.
Thinking about it, Lu Yuan went to the coffee machine, made a cup of coffee, brought it to the woman, "Here's the coffee for you."
"I don't have eyes. Why are you in a hurry? You can hold it for me first." The woman was taking out her makeup box to touch up her makeup, and said without even looking at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan was also helpless, but when it came to this, Lu Yuan said nothing and just stood aside with a cup of coffee, waiting for her to finish her makeup.
"Hey, Liang Xue, you really look like a young lady." At this moment, Gu Chuang came in with his assistant. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lu Yuan standing next to the woman with coffee, and the woman
But while putting on makeup, she complained impatiently to Lu Yuan.
"Director Gu, you're back!" When the woman named Liang Xue saw Gu Chuang, she suddenly showed a somewhat flattering smile, and then said hurriedly, "Director Gu really loves to joke, I
I'm just playing the role of a maid, how can I look like a eldest lady? I don't have the temperament of a eldest lady."
"Really? Then why did you ask Lu Yuan to bring you coffee?" Gu Chuang said.
"Ah, he..." Liang Xue didn't understand what Gu Chuang meant for a moment. This migrant boy's name is Lu Yuan? It's normal to ask this boy to get me a cup of coffee.
"Haha, you may not know that Lu Yuan was chosen by me to play the male lead in the play." Gu Chuang said with a smile, "Now you ask him to serve you coffee like a servant. You are not a young lady."
,Who is the eldest lady?"
"What?!"
Liang Xue was stunned immediately, "He, he is the male protagonist?"
"Yes, Lu Yuan is the male protagonist, and you play his personal maid in the play. You have to serve him in the play. I didn't expect that he would have to serve you now, haha." Gu Chuang chuckled.
ah?!
Liang Xue was stammered and speechless. She didn't dare to take the cup of coffee anymore and hid aside, looking at a loss and looking very worried.
Gu Chuang ignored Liang Xue and pulled Lu Yuan to the middle of the lounge.
He is a director, and to be honest, he knows a lot about many things in the entertainment industry.
When he came in just now, he saw Lu Yuan standing next to Liang Xue with a cup of coffee, and Liang Xue was putting on makeup while talking coldly. He immediately understood what was going on.
Therefore, it seemed like he was joking just now, but in fact, he was quietly giving Liang Xue a warning.
Arriving in the middle of the lounge, Gu Chuang directly told everyone Lu Yuan's identity.
As expected, everyone looked at each other in shock.
Yes, they actually used a migrant worker pulled from the street as the male protagonist?!
This is too surprising.
"Director Gu, you are too casual. You randomly cast a migrant worker to play the leading role. Have you ever thought about how I feel? Besides, what kind of acting does a migrant worker know? Can he be as rich as the leading actor?
Temperament? A person's temperament is determined by his origin. I don't think that a dirty migrant worker whose growth path itself is a mess can perform the feeling of a down-and-out rich second generation.
?”
The extremely beautiful woman in the middle of the lounge finally stood up at this time. Obviously, she was very dissatisfied.
She is indeed quite elegant. Her long skirt makes her look like a lotus flower emerging from the water, with icy skin and jade neck, willows supporting the wind.
"Zhang Ying, don't get excited." Gu Chuang said hurriedly, "I carefully selected Lu Yuan. His temperament should be the most suitable for the male protagonist. Trust me, let Lu Yuan perform.
I guarantee that this drama will be a hit at the box office and word-of-mouth. Come on, you two, the couple in the drama, shake hands."
It turns out that this woman is the heroine, and she and Lu Yuan play a couple in the play.
Gu Chuang said and pushed Lu Yuan forward.
Lu Yuan understood what Gu Chuang meant, so he took the initiative and stretched out his hand politely.
"The toad wants to eat swan meat. I won't play a couple with a migrant worker." Zhang Ying frowned, with a look of disgust on her face that was really impossible to hide and obviously she didn't want to hide. She turned around and left.
Her personal assistant hurriedly followed behind her and left in a hurry.
"It's okay, Lu Yuan, I will convince her. Let's go up and sign the contract." Gu Chuang said, taking Lu Yuan upstairs to sign the contract.
After Gu Chuang explained some more things.
"Well, Lu Yuan, our crew will start filming officially next Monday. Then you can just come directly. Now, I will send someone to drive you back." Gu Chuang said.
"No, Director Gu, I'll just take the bus back." Lu Yuan didn't let Gu Chuang see him off, and took the bus back alone.
After he left.
In the lounge, Liang Xue felt anxious and uneasy.
"What should I do? How do I know that boy is actually the male lead chosen by Director Gu? I offended him just now, what should I do now?" Liang Xue kept stamping her feet anxiously, with a look of helplessness on her face.
"What are you afraid of? Didn't you see just now that Zhang Ying doesn't like him at all? It's still unclear whether he can really play the leading role." Next to him, Liang Xue's friend said.
"No matter how big a person Zhang Ying is, it's Director Gu who has the final say. Director Gu took him upstairs to sign the contract, so this must be him." Liang Xue scratched her long hair, "Oh, even though he is a newcomer
, I am still a migrant worker, but as long as I act in a play, I will definitely become famous quickly. I am a third-rate actor, but I still play his maid in the play. If he wants to give me little shoes to wear, then I will be finished."
"Well, I have an idea." Her friend suddenly rolled her eyes and said.
"Ah, come on, come on, come on!"
"You go to the hotel to get a room tonight, and then invite him to your room to discuss the plot. Then when he arrives, you will find a way to push him down! In this way, I think he will not come back again in the future.
What happened to you? Maybe you can still catch him."
"Is this okay?"
"Why not? He is just a migrant worker. He may not have seen a woman before. If Director Gu hadn't chosen him to play the leading role, he would have been just a migrant worker. And you are at least an artist.
In his eyes, you are like a goddess. If you take the initiative to support him, he will
He will definitely accept it. And you have to hurry up. He has just signed the contract and is still confused, so it is easy to push him down. And if you wait for a while and he has adapted to his identity, there will be
If you lose fame and fans, then he will probably not like you anymore."
One sentence reminded Liang Xue.
"You're absolutely right! But how do I contact him? Director Gu said that filming won't start until next Monday. How can I find him during this period?"
"I just saw him going out, probably to the bus stop. You drive quickly, follow him, see where he lives, and then go find him."
