Chapter 280 Two phone calls (please vote for me!)

Beyond Xiang Yang's imagination, Liu Qianqian actually started chatting with Jing Tian.

Standing in the kitchen, listening to the intermittent discussions outside, Xiang Yang pricked up an ear and eavesdropped.

He was curious about what topics the two female stars of similar age could have in common around the script. When he heard it, they didn't talk about this at all, but they were talking about the weather in Hollywood.

Xiang Yang, who had no interest in this, withdrew his attention and began to concentrate on cooking.

"Actually, I don't have much experience in auditioning for movies in Hollywood, but Tiantian, have you got the script?"

Facing Jing Tian's audition, Liu Qianqian said, "Also, if you are nervous, buy a ham sandwich and bring it with you. This is very useful."

"Ham sandwich?" Jing Tian on the other end of the phone was a little confused.

"Well, Sister Shitou taught me this. She said ham sandwiches can bring good luck."

Nodding in the affirmative, Liu Qianxi explained: "Sister Shitou is Emma Stone. She has a lot of experience auditioning in Hollywood. It's right to listen to her."

"Then I'll write it down." Jing Tian's voice was a little happy.

It was her first audition in Hollywood. She didn't have much experience and her acting skills weren't very good. What she worried about most was not her performance, but how to prevent her on-the-spot performance from being interfered by nervousness and other factors.

as for the script
She felt that it was not unreasonable for Liu Qianqian, who was 10 months older than her, to call her sister. Jing Tian smiled and said:
"Sister Sissi, I didn't get the script."

Hearing this, Liu Qianqian first said "Ah" in surprise and frowned.

Co-author Jing Tian didn’t even have a script.

"Then I'll send you what I have. The character you want to audition for has some intimate scenes. You'd better take a look at it before making a decision."

"Intimate scenes?"

Jing Tian's heart skipped a beat after hearing this.

She was not surprised that Liu Qianqian had a script in hand, because the information she obtained from Lu Zheng was that this role was originally reserved for Liu Qianqian by Columbia Pictures.

Of course, what she and Lu Zheng didn't know was that this was a misinformation.

Columbia Pictures has actually been looking for an actor to play this Chinese character, but has not yet made a decision due to commercial considerations.

To be honest, asking a Chinese actor from Hollywood to play such a supporting role will not have much impact on the overall quality of the film.

But thinking from a business perspective, such an option will be eliminated first.

First, Columbia Pictures itself is discussing cooperation with China Film; second, based on multi-regional distribution, China Film has a natural advantage in China; third, Hermès Film Investment Company has expressed investment interest of.

That's why the director team is willing to wait for Liu Qianqian's decision.

This is not to say that the role was reserved specifically for Liu Qianqian, but that they wanted to maximize their profits and try their best to increase the guarantee of recouping their investment before the film was released.

Whether it is US$4000 million or US$5000 million, such an investment is not a small project in Hollywood.

"There is a set of shots, in the bathroom, you have to follow." Hearing Jing Tian's voice, Liu Qianqian was a little confused, found the script from the table, and explained:
"Well, you're going to have a kiss scene in the bathroom with this actor named Andrew Garfield."

"Andrew Garfield"

A lot of questions popped up in Jing Tian's mind.

At the end of 2012, Andrew Garfield, who became famous with the 2009 "Amazing Spider-Man" series and "Hacksaw Ridge," was still just a relatively well-known and capable rising star in Hollywood.

"He has a movie called "Magical Fantasy Show" which has just been released. When you get to Hollywood, you can take the time to learn about it." Liu Qianqian frowned, "By the way, there is also your English."

"."

When he heard Xiang Yang asking Liu Qianqian to eat, Jing Tian thanked Liu Qianqian before reluctantly hanging up the phone.

It can't be said that one phone call brought her closer to Liu Qianqian.

But it confirmed Jing Tian's previous view.

She thinks Liu Qianqian is really outstanding.

Even better than she had thought before.

How important the resources of Hollywood are now. Everyone feels the same as Spiegel. People have to give up such opportunities because they have a baby, but they are willing to teach them this to a peer who has nothing to do with them, or even a future competitor. Pay more attention.

By doing this, Jing Tian had to look at the other person inwardly.

This is not a trivial matter.

The combined total investment of Liu Qianqian's three Hollywood movies is about the same as "The Social Network".

"Whether I can win this role or not, I have to thank Liu Qianqian."

Holding the phone in her hand, Jing Tian clicked her lips and began to think about the kiss scene again.
"What are you talking about? Have you been talking for so long?"

Xiang Yang, who was wearing an apron, asked as he brought the sumptuous dishes he made to the dining table one by one.

"Just a casual chat so that you don't have to think about Wanda." Liu Qianqian stared at him, with some kind of warning hidden in her eyes, "You dare to hide something from me, do you really think I'm a fool?"

Xiang Yang felt a chill in his heart and waved his hands quickly, "I didn't want to hide it, I just didn't expect that a character would be so valued."

"That's nice to say," Liu Qianqian curled her lips. Sitting on the chair, she glanced at the salad made by Xiang Yang and frowned: "Are you going to feed the pigs in such a big pot?"

"You eat the rest and I'll eat the rest." Xiang Yang said with a smile, "Didn't the doctor tell you to take more vitamins?"

"Is that for me?" Liu Qianqian pouted, moved her position and sat next to Xiang Yang, "My arm is tired of holding the phone, please feed me."

Seeing her coquettish look, what could Xiang Yang say?
Naturally, he picked up the fork with a smile and said, "Okay, I'll feed you."

"That's pretty much it." Liu Qianqian grinned with satisfaction and started talking about the movie again.

From her perspective, there was a reason why she talked so much with Jingtian.

In the entertainment industry, she doesn't have many friends, and only a few close friends.Taking a longer-term view, there are actually fewer people who can maintain the relationship of friendship in the end.

So when I heard Jingtian calling to explain this matter.

She thinks the other person is pretty good.

So, why not be generous?

In the more than half a year of contact with people in Xiangyang's circle, the thing she has learned the most is sharing.

No matter how outstanding a person is, his ability and influence are limited.

But by gathering a group of capable people, the influence of this circle will grow.Do you want to say that Xiangyang is capable?
There must be some, otherwise how could Xiang Yang be able to mix like a fish in water like a fish in water.But the reason why he has achieved his current results is actually more because of the encouragement of the circle he is in.

And through 'sharing', he has invisibly maintained a closer relationship with the entire circle.

This is like a spider web under the sun. No one may notice it at first, until one day you accidentally discover its existence, and you will see that the prey captured by this strong web far exceeds the size of the web. Spider in the web.

Liu Qianqian didn't have the energy or thought to weave a web. She just thought it was a good thing to learn to share like Xiang Yang and others.

If you can't play a role, why do you care?
What she told Jingtian, the other party would slowly understand it if he just put some thought into it, why should he hide it and try to be a villain in vain?

She is not stingy.
Looking at Xiang Yang who was picking up food for her, Liu Qianqian thought to herself: "This guy is the one I don't want to share with others."

"Chewing vegetables, why are you looking at me stupidly?" Xiang Yang, who was being stared at by Liu Qianqian, asked blankly:

"Do you still want me to chew it up and feed it to you?"

Liu Qianqian said "hehe" and the smile on her face disappeared.

Xiang Yang gritted his teeth and looked around. Could it be that the three-year pregnancy started from the time of conception?
At night, the coolness in the air made Xiang Yang feel even colder, because the warm scene before was gone, and he was left alone in the workshop sewing embroidery.

After dinner, not only did Liu Qianqian not come, she even took Dongdong away.

Just like Jing Tian, ​​who was preparing to audition for a movie in Hollywood, news soon came out that Columbia Pictures was looking for actors for a new movie.

"The investment of 5000 million US dollars is not a co-production?"

Brother Xun, who had just heard the news, was a little surprised. Didn't it mean that the two companies were still preparing for a co-production?

"No, it's another movie."

Brother Huang's voice was a little deep. Judging from the information he found out, Brother Xun had no chance at all.

Because the name of Hermès Film Investment Company is among the investors of this film.

After noticing this, Brother Xun's voice became colder, "Oh, then it seems I have no hope."

"I hope you won't be affected by Huaying's film."

Agent Huang Ge comforted him. He felt somewhat guilty that the matter would develop into such an embarrassing situation. This was a dereliction of duty on his part.

Also feeling derelict was Fan Xiaopang’s agent.

Fan Xiaopang has been looking for opportunities to develop in Hollywood, but he has neglected it.

It wasn't until he found out from Huaying's network that Han Sanping was hosting a banquet for Little John today that he found out that there was such a movie in which he was selecting roles. He couldn't even sleep. After quickly communicating with Fan Xiaopang, he ordered a trip to Hollywood for him. of air tickets.

Also booking air tickets were Li Bingbing, Yang Mi and Liu Sisi.

"The Social Network" can make these big stars and newbies very concerned about it, and they are scrambling to get it. Not only does it really need a Chinese/Chinese actor, but the key is that Liu Qianqian's performance in the past six months has been too attractive. People are dazzled.

Not surprisingly, the box office of "Midnight in Paris" is still rising, and the movie's influence is still expanding, making Chinese actresses who were originally looking forward to going international more concerned about this track.

They didn't have the time or thought to find out why Liu Qianqian couldn't star.

But if you can go to the interview, why not give it a try? Even if you don't speak English well, you can still practice it.

"Sissi, I'm sorry to bother you so late."

Jiang Yiyan, who had not contacted Liu Qianqian for a long time, ignored the time difference and called Liu Qianqian who was just about to go to bed.

"what happened?"

Liu Qianqian rubbed her confused eyes, her voice a little tired.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to be in Paris." There was no embarrassment in Jiang Yiyan's tone. She went straight to the point and said, "I'm just going to Hollywood to try my luck. I wanted to ask if you know anyone there."

"You're going to audition too." Liu Qianqian was surprised, her mind gradually clearing up.

She sat up and looked at the empty room, thinking that Xiang Yang was really stingy and didn't even know that Xiang Yang came over to warm the bed. After that, she climbed out of the bed, found a coat and put it on, and said as she walked:

"I really don't know anyone."

"Didn't I say that Hermès also invested in it? How could you not recognize it?" Jiang Yiyan asked in a slightly questioning tone.

"They don't care about this." Liu Qianqian sighed and said truthfully: "I heard that the producer and director are solely responsible for the casting."

But after she said this, she stopped going downstairs, because on the phone, Jiang Yiyan followed closely and said:

"Sissi, we are classmates. Although you didn't come to school much because you were busy filming movies, we still have the friendship of classmates. Can you help me?"

Liu Qianqian was stunned, "How can I help you?"

"Your relationship with Hermès is just a matter of words." Jiang Yiyan had a smile on her face. Sure enough, being emotional is useful.

"They are really just investing this time." Liu Qianqian, who had originally planned to sleep, said in a cold tone.

If she wants to fight for this role, she has to audition first before knowing the result. How can it be a matter of one sentence?Even after telling Jing Tian so much, she felt that the other party's chances were not very good.

Just as he was about to explain, Xiang Yang opened the door after finishing his work in the workroom, looking exhausted.

As soon as he came in, before he could stretch himself, he saw Liu Qianqian standing blankly on the stairs in the corridor, not sleeping well, holding a phone and chatting with someone.

"Why don't you take a good rest?" Xiang Yang frowned, a little confused.

"My husband is back, I won't tell you anymore." Liu Qianxi said to the phone and hung up the phone.He showed a helpless expression to Xiang Yang, "Friend, it's about the movie."

"Which friend again."

"Jiang Yiyan."

Xiang Yang was silent for a few seconds, then stepped up the stairs, hugged Liu Qianqian gently, and said distressedly: "Go back and rest, don't worry too much about this kind of thing, you can't handle it."

Liu Qianqian nodded, rested her head on Xiang Yang's shoulder, and murmured, "I want to drink a cup of hot milk."

"As ordered."

While the two of them were talking, Jiang Yiyan, who hung up the phone with Liu Qianqian, felt teasing.

"What's the air? I'm not acting. Asking you to do a favor is just like asking you."

After complaining, she stuffed her phone back into her bag, put on her sunglasses and mask, and walked straight into the airport lobby.

　Everyone should know Jiang Yiyan, right?
