Pokémon's Lord of Fear

Chapter 173 You Treat Me Like a State Scholar
"Dam, I remember hearing someone say this before." Dam thought of the night of the wrap party for Sherlock Holmes, when director Teng Shu was toasting him, he smiled and raised the red wine glass in his hand, then looked at what he said.

"When you succeed, you will find that there are good people around you, looking at you with a smile, willing to help you and willing to deal with you." Dam muttered in a low voice as he looked at the messages on his mobile phone.

His former college and middle school classmates, some group leaders he had worked with, assistant directors, some people who claimed to be his former teachers, and even those who asked for money.

There is something for everyone.

These people were all good people, because their language was very kind and considerate, as if they had known him for a long time. They were very enthusiastic, so enthusiastic that Dam was a little uncomfortable with it. After all, just before, his cell phone number was in these people's phones, but for all these years, these people had never sent him a message.

Even those who had blocked him before unblocked him and started chatting with him in a very friendly manner, congratulating him on his success in "Sherlock Holmes".

Teng Shu had done a good job of keeping the identity of Sherlock Holmes secret before, and Damm was an unknown person, so many people didn't know who Damm was. It was not until the cast list appeared at the end of the film that these people were sure that the person who played the great detective Sherlock Holmes was really the Damm who had become an ordinary person.

In an instant, the number of unread messages on his Penguin messaging app exceeded ninety-nine and was still increasing. His personal social media app was also popping up private messages and information about new fans like crazy.

All of this tells Dam that he is famous.

The fire was a complete mess.

However, just before that, his software seemed to have a bug. No one talked to him, no one paid attention to him, and no one cared about him.

Apart from
A message flashed by, and Dam picked up the phone instantly. He smiled until his eyes narrowed. He happily held the phone and talked to his parents who cared about him every day about his excitement, his excitement, his...
Indescribable emotions.

Dam didn't know how to describe his emotions. A kind of ecstasy, a complex, an indescribable emotion filled his heart, but at this moment, Dam was undoubtedly very happy.

What kind of life did he lead before?
Only Dam himself knew that as a middle-aged man with no savings, he had no way to support his parents and even needed help from his parents occasionally. He even had to take medicine himself when his mother was sick. These things tormented Dam's heart.

He thought about giving up his dream of becoming an actor countless times, but he was unwilling to do so.

He obviously has a good look and has been honing his acting skills every day, but why doesn't he have a single chance?

I can only be a small extra, and the kind without any lines.

Until Teng Shu gave him a chance, and he seized it.

"Hoo Holmes" Dam took a deep breath, the screen of the phone became blurred, the words on it were distorted, Dam gritted his teeth, he thought he was strong enough after going through so many things, but it was not until the moment of success that Dam realized that under the appearance of thirty years old, he still had a soft heart.

When Dam woke up the next day, his phone had turned off automatically. He hurriedly charged it, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then turned on his phone.

As soon as he turned on his phone, he felt like it was stuck. After a while, a string of messages popped up, and there were a lot of missed calls, all from people who hadn't contacted him once in the past year.

Dam ignored the calls, then flipped through the pages and saw a message from 8:30. [Dam, remember to call back later. There are some promotions that require your participation.]

It was a message from an employee of Ghost Pictures who contacted him. Dam called back immediately. He didn't care about the good people who surrounded him because he stood up. He only cared about the people who gave him this opportunity.

As for the others, please reply after you get on the plane.

"..So, you plan to sign a contract with our company?" Teng Shu looked at Dam in front of him. The other party was wearing a very formal suit, with a hint of...
Pious?

What the hell, why did he see piety?
"Yes, Director Teng Shu, I am really, very grateful that you can give me the opportunity to play such an excellent role of Sherlock Holmes. I want to become an actor under you." Dam said very seriously.

Zoroark on the side glanced at his boss and then at Dam.

I didn’t expect that my boss would meet such a unique person.

You have to know that Holmes has become very popular. Yesterday's final ratings broke the league record, reaching a staggering 5.1%, an astonishing number that can be said to be almost impossible to surpass in a short period of time.

If it is possible to surpass, it is Holmes surpassing himself.

As the leading actor of this TV series, Dam has successfully made it into the list of first-class male stars just by relying on this TV series. As long as he produces other works in the future, it will not be a problem for him to become a superstar in the league.

At this level, it would not be an exaggeration to say that people from Kanaz City to Green Ridge City line up to become the other party's agent.

It is even normal for the other party to set up his own studio and become his own boss.

However, I didn't expect that the other party actually wanted to join Ghost Pictures and let the company become his agent. In this way, no matter how much money the other party made in the future, Ghost Pictures would get a share of it.

Even if the boss is a bit more ruthless, he can make the other party one of the most valuable cash cows in the company.

"Well, since you have made this decision, then Zoroark, you ask the legal department to come over and talk to Dam about the contract." Teng Shu scratched his head. He understood what Dam meant.

Although he was a little surprised, Teng Shu had no intention of refusing. If Damu became an artist under his command, then it would be much easier to shoot the subsequent Sherlock Holmes in the future. Moreover, this actor's acting skills were indeed very good. As long as he did not develop any bad habits in the future, his achievements would definitely be more than what they are now.

"Thank you! Director Teng Shu!" Dam was very excited. Teng Shu smiled and waved his hands without saying anything. However, looking at Dam's excitement, Teng Shu was in a good mood.

This reminded Teng Shu of a sentence from Mencius.

If you treat me as a national hero, I will repay you as a national hero.
