This entertainment industry is a bit strange

Chapter 219 Finally, I Don't Need To Play The Old Lady
In a slightly messy fitness room, a girl with a proud figure is sweating profusely on a treadmill.

During the running, the waves swayed dazzlingly, and the sportswear was firmly stuck to the body with sweat, as if the whole body was filled with the breath of 404.

Beside her, a middle-aged aunt was frowning and eloquent.

"Xiao Xi, can you be more pragmatic and stop being so picky about the script? Tell yourself, how many scripts have you pushed in the past six months?"

"If you really have a job to do, it's okay to be picky, but you've been out of business for several months! The entertainment industry is changing very quickly these days. If you don't show up for a few months, you will go out again." No one remembers who you Zhang Wei are!"

The girl continued to run as if she hadn't heard anything.

"My aunt, are you listening to me?"

The middle-aged aunt, that is, Hong Xiudi, Zhang Wei's agent, said earnestly: "I know I have a heart, but it depends on the actual situation, right? You are different from Zhang Ziyi. She has the support of Zhang Yimou and Cheng Long, and she can choose whatever she wants. But you can't!"

"You don't want to drink and laugh with you, but you also want to choose a good book. How can there be such a good thing in this world? The most indispensable thing in the circle is young and beautiful girls. Why should they take advantage of you? I thought this Was it 30 or [-] years ago, when people were able to get jobs based on ability?"

Zhang Xi still turned a deaf ear to it and ran on his own.

"Little Wei, I feel my conscience and say that I really tried my best. This book is actually not bad, but it just asks you to play a mother-level role across your age? What a big deal, it's not like you can't play it!"

"The producers and investors of this drama are both owned by Penguin. You don't know the size of this platform, do you? Acting in their homemade drama will greatly benefit your popularity and exposure. , as long as we have established a good relationship, it is not impossible to have a heroine in the future, we must take a long-term view, and don't always focus on the short-term interests in front of us!"

Zhang Wei was obviously a little impatient, and his brows were tightly frowned.

She does have arrogance in her heart, even if she can't reach Zhang Ziyi's level, she doesn't want to be too mean to herself.

She can accept no filming, and can accept being a green leaf for a powerful senior, but the only thing she can't accept is being a stepping stone for a group of empty-headed little white flowers!
After studying in Chinese opera for so many years, body shape, lines, literary accomplishment, stage performance... the basic ability has been polished little by little. I don't know how much hard work I have put in, but in the end I have to be a green leaf for a bunch of noobs who don't know anything. , how to bear it?
Years of sweat and hard work, what has become?

26 years old, the golden age of an actress in her prime, but she has to be dragged to play the old lady for Xiaohua... Haha!
A year ago, maybe she would have picked up her nose.

But since a younger brother cryptically reminded her last time that the "all comers are welcome" mode of accepting dramas is likely to do more harm than good, she came back and thought about it for a long time, and finally agreed to this statement.

So since then, she has been a lot more cautious when choosing scripts.

The Penguin Family's self-made drama is very famous, but as an industry person, do you still not know what's going on?
One penny is used for filming, nine cents is used for hype and marketing to brush data, and then use the beautiful report card to cheat investment hot money, come back and sit in line for fruit, and then enter the next round of cycle...

What do you mean by long-term vision?

It is precisely because of long-term planning that we cannot blindly accept this bad show. This model is a quagmire. It is very difficult to get in and then figure out!
Seeing that Zhang Wei didn't get in, Hong Xiudi finally became a little anxious, "Did you hear what I said? If this continues, you will soon be 'nobody', you know? Even the top-notch Xiaohua, Don't dare to rest like you!"

"The company has been urging you several times in different ways. If you want to rest like this, you may be completely hidden one day. Let you rest enough!"

Zhang Wei finally spoke, "Sister Hong, wait and see, maybe there is something more suitable?"

"Still waiting?!" Hong Xiudi frowned, "Penguin's S-level self-produced drama, the male one is the top student Jiang Jun, and the female one is Penguin's own daughter Zhu Zi, you will definitely play the role of Zhu Zi's mother , you are not satisfied with this opportunity?"

"Don't blame me for speaking harshly. You have to be a little self-aware when you do things. It's a big taboo in the industry! You wait, what are you waiting for? If you have the ability to wait for Zhang Yimou or Yang Rui's drama appointment, then I will admit it, But is that realistic?"

"Be sober, girl, first get a solid foothold in the circle, and then think about those who have something or nothing..."

Just as I was talking, a young short-haired female assistant suddenly ran in, her pretty face flushed and she was very excited, "Sister Hong..."

Hong Xiudi was in a bad mood, and immediately said with a cold face: "What are you doing so recklessly, is there a fire or an earthquake?"

The female assistant was a little articulate with excitement, "Director Yang... oh, that's Yang Rui, he called to inquire about Sister Wu's schedule!"

puff.

Zhang Wei on the treadmill staggered and almost fell down. After adjusting her body balance in embarrassment, she quickly turned off the treadmill.

The footsteps stopped, but the heartbeat became more violent, and the excited head was a little blank.

On the other hand, Hong Xiudi was a little confused, "Who did you just talk about?"

"Yang Rui!" The assistant's eyes lit up excitedly, "Fang Hanwen! Chen Zhen!"

Hong Xiudi opened her mouth, her brain was buzzing, and her cheeks were also a little painful.

What the hell, my mouth is open?

Just talking about it, did you really call?

That's the hottest and strongest newcomer director, if he can be in his play... Hey, Penguin's S drama is a ball!

"Are you sure you're not a liar?" Hong Xiudi asked hastily.

"I called from Xingqing Culture's landline. I have already checked the number of the caller. There is no problem." The assistant said hastily.

Snapped!
Hong Xiudi slapped her thigh, laughing until her teeth burst out, "Okay, okay, this is really great! Xiao Xi, your luck is about to change! You have to seize this opportunity no matter what!"

Seeing her eagerness, Zhang Wei couldn't laugh or cry.

A few minutes ago, she was still scolding her for not knowing what to do, but she changed her face in a blink of an eye, but it's really...

Forget it, isn't this circle so realistic?

But this news did surprise her.

It's just a one-sided relationship, and that younger brother still remembers her, an [-]th-line artist who has penetrated the center of the earth?
"Grandma, are you going to take over or not? Say something?" Hong Xiudi was going crazy.

This time Zhang Wei didn't hesitate any longer, and nodded with a smile, "Go."

"Thank goodness!"

Hong Xiudi clasped her hands together and burst into tears of gratitude, she turned her head and dragged her assistant to contact Yang Rui.

Zhang Xi was left sitting alone on the dirty bench, drinking fruit and vegetable juice that supplemented nutrients.

After drinking a cup, she wiped away the sweat and let out a long breath.

Finally, there is no need to play the old lady!

That night, Hong Xiudi dragged Zhang Wei to Qingfeng. The next morning, as soon as Xingqing Culture opened, the two came up.

Strictly speaking, this kind of eagerness is very self-deprecating and cheap, and it will make people look down on it, but Hong Xiudi really can't care about it so much.

This is Yang Rui, a cash cow who sells an average of 20 billion box office per movie!
Go out and ask, how many first-line Xiaohua want to be in his play now that they have sharpened their heads? !
He can see Zhang Wei, which is almost like a pie in the sky. If such a good thing is not quickly finalized in black and white, what if someone jumps in the queue?
Those goblins who have just entered the circle are willing to do anything in order to grab the role!
Ding Lan met them personally, and while exchanging pleasantries, he also quietly observed Zhang Hui.

She was also very curious about the quality of the heroine that Yang Rui hand-picked, which could overwhelm so many candidate female artists in the company...

But after looking at it for a long time anyway, I didn't see anything special about it, except for one obvious advantage - big.

Reminiscent of Yang Rui's different attitudes towards Wang Zhi and Liu Shishi... Ding Lan has already confirmed Yang Rui's taste.

Alas, if this is the case, Tiantian's situation is not good!
