China Entertainment: Great directors start by winning actresses

Chapter 316 Dilreba
"Women." Su Zhe shook his head and sighed, feeling both emotional and bitter. He felt like a tool used by Da Tiantian, and once the mission was completed, he was thrown aside mercilessly.

"Hello, Chairman."

"Okay, you guys go about yourselves, I'll just walk around." Su Zhe had nothing to do today, so he decided to walk around the company building.

Since moving into the new building, Su Zhe has never set foot in it again except for that brief inspection.

His understanding of the various departments within the company is also relatively limited.

At the moment, he had no urgent matters on hand, and the filming of the movie for Da Tiantian needed to be suspended for a few days due to production issues. Su Zhe happened to come to the company to take a look.

The idle chairman began to wander around the building, taking the opportunity to learn more about his company.

"Chairman." Su Zhe didn't stop until he met a familiar face.

It turned out to be the company’s veteran artist, Wang Baoqiang.

Looking around, Su Zhe found that he had unknowingly walked into the agency department.

"Baoqiang, how have you been lately?" Su Zhe asked.

"Very good, very good, haha." Wang Baoqiang answered with a hearty smile.

"Thank you very much for the chairman's support. I am living a good life now and have been getting roles in many plays."

Although Wang Baoqiang is not outstanding in appearance, his first impression is extremely good. His approachable and optimistic temperament is very impressive.

He naturally exudes a joyful aura, and communicating with such a person always makes people feel a sense of joy inadvertently.

So Su Zhe asked Zhang Yuxia to give it a try, but he didn't expect that he actually agreed.

"That's good. Since you are so busy, how do you still have time to hang around the company?" Su Zhe still cares about Wang Baoqiang, a veteran artist of his own company.

"Hey, Chairman." Wang Baoqiang scratched his head and replied with a somewhat honest smile.

“Isn’t it because Wang Kaikai has become very popular recently, and he is going to join Director Su’s crew again.

I came back to discuss this with Sister Yuxia. The company has a lot of invitations right now, and we need to see how to arrange them. "

Although Wang Baoqiang's words revealed that he was busy with work, there was always a smile on his face and he looked very happy.

"Just choose the role you're interested in. As for you, I've told Sister Yuxia that as long as it's a role you're capable of, we'll give you priority.

As for invitations from other companies, it all depends on your own wishes.

The company always hopes that our artists can have better development. "Su Zhe smiled and patted Wang Baoqiang on the shoulder, giving him full support and encouragement.

The reason why Su Zhe is so generous is, on the one hand, because Wang Baoqiang provided important help in his starting stage.

On the other hand, it is also based on Wang Baoqiang’s own conditions.

Although Wang Baoqiang's appearance and height have their own unique charm, they do not fit the image of a global superstar who will be the protagonist in Su Zhe's future movies.

This is not because Su Zhe is biased against Wang Baoqiang, but because of the expectations of the market and movie fans.

Looking around the world, big stars, both men and women, often have outstanding looks and figures.

Su Zhe did not look down on Wang Baoqiang. Instead, he valued his talent and attitude towards life very much.

However, if one were to select a male celebrity from within the company as the main target to be promoted to the global stage, then other artists such as Kai Kai Wang would undoubtedly be more suitable choices.

Wang Baoqiang really isn’t good-looking enough!

Humans are very visual animals.

Therefore, Su Zhe once emphasized to Zhang Yuxia that Wang Baoqiang should be given enough autonomy to allow him to choose roles and projects that interest him.

At the same time, Wang Baoqiang still has a long-term contract with the company. It is not easy to leave the company and start his own studio. The high amount of liquidated damages will also be an important consideration in his decision-making.

"I know, and I am very grateful to the chairman for his support." Although Wang Baoqiang had some ambitions in his heart, he knew very well that his conditions were not suitable for pursuing the path of becoming a global superstar.

He has a very clear understanding of his own positioning and is very grateful for the respect and support given to him by Su Zhe and the company's brokerage department.

This made him deeply feel the company's importance and trust in him.

Although Kaikai Wang's fame gradually rose and even surpassed him, Wang Baoqiang never felt left out.

He understands that everyone has his or her own position and role, and that he has irreplaceable value in the company.

This feeling of being recognized gave him great satisfaction.

"That's good." Su Zhe nodded.

"Chairman, good morning." Just as Su Zhe was deep in thought, a soft female voice interrupted his thoughts.

He turned around and saw a tall woman with exotic looks smiling and greeting him.

A hint of surprise flashed in Su Zhe's eyes. He remembered this girl. It was Da Tiantian who signed a contract with the company last year.

"Good morning, you... Your name is Reba, right? I remember you, you were recruited into the company by Tiantian, right?" Su Zhe responded with a smile.

"Yes, Chairman, you still remember me. It's an honor." Reba didn't expect Su Zhe to remember her. She was a little surprised and quickly introduced herself.

"My name is Reba, and I signed with the company last year with Tiantian."

"Director Su, I'll leave first." At this time, Wang Baoqiang interrupted tactfully.

He has always been perceptive, and this advantage has not changed, whether in his previous life or now.

He nodded to Su Zhe and Reba, then took his leave and left.

Su Zhe smiled and nodded, watching Wang Baoqiang leave.

He then turned to Reba and started talking to her.

Even if the other person doesn't remember her name, but still remembers the last time they met, it's already a good thing for Reba.

Now, this was the second time the two of them had a chance to have a real in-depth conversation.

Thinking back to our first meeting, it was at the premiere of Su Zhe’s movie more than a year ago.

At that time, Da Tiantian had just signed her and took her to experience the red carpet and premiere atmosphere of the entertainment industry, and also introduced her to the man in front of her.

"Oh, Reba, I remember now, it is indeed a very distinctive name." Su Zhe said with a smile, his eyes involuntarily looking at the woman in front of him.

Reba's outfit is simple and elegant, with jeans, sneakers and a T-shirt, without too much decoration.

She didn't wear any jewelry around her neck, but there was a small red pendant on her wrist, which added a touch of brightness to the overall look.

She simply wore her long hair, and with her palm-sized face and exotic features, she was particularly eye-catching. Her height of 1.7 meters made her stand out from the crowd, and she was only 19 years old, looking very young and energetic.

This simple and refreshing girl left a deep impression on Su Zhe.

"Nice to see you again, Reba." Su Zhe said with a smile.

"You have been working hard, I believe you will have a better development in the entertainment industry."

"Young girl, youth is invincible." Su Zhe looked at Reba and admired her secretly in his heart.

He is well aware that girls change a lot as they grow up, and that girls' development is often completed earlier than boys.

Usually by the age of eighteen, a girl's physical development is basically complete, and her appearance and temperament at that time have begun to show her personal characteristics.

The Reba in front of us is already 20 years old. She looks almost the same as in the future, but now she has not yet fully learned how to dress up, and seems a little awkward, without the charming temperament of the future.

"Butterfly buttocks." Su Zhe glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, wow, it's really great!

"How do you feel about working in the company?" Su Zhe's heart moved, but on the surface he smiled and showed concern for the employees.

The girl in front of me in the future, the one with the "butterfly butt" is very popular on the Internet.

In the Internet age, there are so many different things. Perhaps just because of a certain condition, a star can become a little famous.

Things like corgi butt and peach butt, these are all derived from this.

In fact, Su Zhe didn’t understand what these words meant at first. He even looked them up online before he understood the meaning of the nouns.

Reba lowered her head slightly and answered softly: "I feel good. The company has given me a lot of support, and my colleagues have also taken good care of me."

There was a hint of gratitude in her voice, but her eyes revealed a hint of confusion and uneasiness.

She was not sure if the look in Su Zhe's eyes just now was an illusion or not. She always felt that his gaze seemed to linger on a certain part of her body. She was also a little excited. What if she could attract this world-class director!
Su Zhe looked at Reba and encouraged her gently, "That's good. You are still a student, so you must study acting more carefully.

You have signed a long contract with the company and you will definitely be one of the company's pillars in the future.

Don't relax your requirements on yourself, we are all optimistic about you."

Su Zhe knew that Reba had signed a twenty-year contract with the company.

Considering her age, this contract covers almost her entire career as an artist, which means that she will work closely with Tai'a Media for a long time.

The company naturally has high hopes for such an artist, and Su Zhe is no exception. His words are full of expectations and care for Reba.

"Yes, Chairman, I have studied hard. Since I signed the contract with the company, the company's arrangements for me have been mainly focused on my studies. At the same time, I have participated in some small supporting roles in TV dramas, which allowed me to become familiar with the filming process and feel the atmosphere of the crew." Reba responded.

Her eyes lit up when she heard "one of the company's pillars", and the uneasiness in her heart eased a little.

Before, she did feel a little confused about the company’s arrangements, worried that her development path was not clear enough, and often gave herself small roles.

"Minor supporting role?" Su Zhe frowned slightly when he heard this. He understood the company's arrangement, but such an arrangement seemed a bit conservative to him.

He pondered for a moment, then slowly said: “Reba, I understand the company’s intention to let you start from a small role to accumulate experience.

But in today's Internet age, things are different.

The entertainment industry in the future will pay more attention to traffic and attention.

Although acting skills are still important, in the age of traffic, it may no longer be the only determining factor.”

The future Internet era is the era of traffic and the era belonging to young people.

A person who has no talent or virtue but has good looks can be praised by the younger generation.

The young generation in their teens and twenties are the darlings of the times.

People in this age group are invincible on the Internet. The so-called top stars are all brought up by these people.

What acting skills, what singing level, these things, these people don’t care, they only care about their brothers and sisters, whether they are handsome or pretty.

As long as you have decent looks, you will definitely become a top star.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have traffic. You can get it in minutes. If you need money, we have money. If you need people, we have people.

What’s the big deal about skipping classes, selling blood, and even eating dirt? They just want their brothers and sisters to become top stars, and they will do whatever it takes to cheat and deceive.

Of course, the backbones of the family are the second and third generations, and these people are not short of money at all.

For people like this, who are young, rich, and powerful, wanting to support idols is a small matter.

"How old are you?" Su Zhe asked.

"I will be a sophomore after the summer vacation." Reba answered with anticipation, while her eyes were fixed on Su Zhe.

Every subtle movement of the chairman of the big company made her heart beat faster, and she knew very well that there might be unusual meanings behind such inquiries.

Su Zhe nodded and smiled, "Sophomore year is the golden period for academic and career advancement.

I will ask Sister Yuxia to arrange for you to play the leading role in some TV series and gradually increase your popularity."

He had his own plans in mind.

A woman’s golden age is short and precious. He does not intend to let the company take the safe route, but hopes to push Reba to a higher stage as soon as possible.

He is well aware of Reba's potential and charm, especially her unique exotic style, which is rare in the current entertainment industry.

"Currently, the only woman with this kind of appearance who has become famous is Tong Liya." Su Zhe continued.

“But I think our company also needs such an exotic representative.

Therefore, I will fully support your development and make you the pride of our company."

If you are not one of our artists, please step aside. What we need are artists who can represent our circle and have exotic characteristics. Di Lieba is such a candidate.

Don't underestimate these labels, they are often of considerable importance to artists in the circle.

If in the future netizens mention female celebrities and exotic customs in the circle, and the first person they think of is Di Lieba, then her influence will be immeasurable.

"Ah, thank you, Chairman. Thank you very much for your recognition." Di Lieba covered her mouth excitedly and thanked him repeatedly.

She has loved dancing since she was a child, and has also practiced singing and piano, but two years ago, she resolutely decided to change direction, gave up the opportunity to apply to the music college, and instead chose an art school.

"As the saying goes, 'Love what you do', Reba knows this truth very well, and she longs to have her own representative work soon.

At present, she plays small supporting roles in film and television works every year, and artists like Kai Kai Wang, who are only a few years older than her, have already been called Asian superstars, which is undoubtedly enviable and admirable.
