How can you ascend to heaven when you are a star?

Chapter 169 Arrangement!

"Have a meal……"

Gao Yue recalled what Bai Lu said before he left, and her feet unconsciously followed him.

She didn't know why she did this. Perhaps it was because, as Bai Lu's agent, she needed to understand the love life of her client to facilitate her PR work. Or perhaps, as an ordinary person, she was curious about celebrity romances. Or perhaps, it was out of concern for a younger sister she had known for four years...

In short, it definitely couldn't be because of that man.

At least that's what she told herself.

At this moment, Gao Yue was like a ghost, following Bai Lu silently from a distance, and only stopped when he saw the other party enter the elevator.

However, she did not give up, but stared at the constantly changing numbers on the elevator display screen.

7……6……5……4……3！

The elevator finally stopped on the third floor.

It’s not the training department, but the location of the company cafeteria.

She immediately pressed the button for another elevator and walked quickly into the cafeteria, fearing that she would lose the person.

It was lunch time and there were many people in the cafeteria.

Gao Yue looked around and soon found Bai Lu, and following the direction he was walking, he saw Zhang Wen who was eating.

At this moment, she suddenly felt nervous for no reason, and her heart was beating violently, as if it was about to jump out.

"Xiaolu wouldn't confess in front of so many people, would he?"

Gao Yue stared at Bai Lu intently. She had known him for four years. Although there were constant scandals during that period, they were all hype for the promotion of the TV series. Only she knew that Bai Lu was very career-oriented and always put love aside. He had never had a boyfriend.

And today, the other party actually talked to her about a man for the first time, and expressed his liking for a man without any reservation. It seemed that he must be serious.

Thinking of this, she suddenly admired Bai Lu a little, admired his decisiveness, admired his ability to take action, and admired his courage to love and hate.

……

Bai Lu came to sit in front of Zhang Wen, glanced at Sister Yue not far away, and said with a smile: "Teacher Zhang, what's good in the cafeteria? I'll treat you to a feast, okay?"

"No." Zhang Wen refused decisively.

For him, the first thing to consider when eating is the price, the second is whether he can eat his fill, and the last is the taste.

Bai Lu treated him to a sumptuous meal, but then rubbed the two points that mattered most to him. How could he possibly agree to this?
Even if he didn't have to spend any money, the fact that he wasn't getting enough to eat was enough to make him refuse.

"Why?" Bai Lu asked in confusion.

Teacher Zhang didn’t eat such delicious barbecue. Could it be...did he not want to eat it with her?

She took out her cell phone and took a picture. Wasn’t she beautiful?

Of course Zhang Wen couldn't tell the truth, as if he was a wild boar that couldn't eat the bran and would die, so he made up an excuse to deal with it.

"I don't have time. I've accumulated too much work these past few days. If you want to treat me to a meal, let's talk about it later."

When Bai Lu heard this, she not only understood instantly, but also felt embarrassed. You know, the reason why the other party had so much work to do was all because of her.

If she hadn't dragged the other person to the garage and waited for several hours, if she hadn't asked the other person to treat Director Han Xiaohua's insomnia, would Teacher Zhang have accumulated so much work?
Thinking of this, she suddenly felt that Teacher Zhang was really good to her, and for a moment she felt really moved.

"Teacher Zhang, I have a question." Bai Lu leaned forward, supporting his elbows on the table, and deliberately moved closer to the man opposite him, asking in a low voice: "What is your relationship with Sister Yue?"

"Sister Yue? Are you talking about Agent Gao?" Zhang Wen asked while eating.

"Ah."

"Normally we are just ordinary colleagues, but when it comes to Tang Yi's matter, we are comrades fighting side by side." Zhang Wen thought for a while and said.

"You mean working hours, I mean outside of work?" Bai Lu asked.

"acquaintance."

"Just an acquaintance?"

"What else?" Zhang Wen asked back.

"..."

Bai Lu blinked, not knowing what to say for a moment.

She was very disappointed with Sister Yue's duplicity, so she wanted to start with Teacher Zhang. If Teacher Zhang had a good impression of Sister Yue, then things would be much easier.

Let Teacher Zhang pursue Sister Yue directly.

Since Sister Yue is embarrassed, let Teacher Zhang come.

But now, Teacher Zhang has no good feelings towards Sister Yue, and Sister Yue refuses to admit it. It's like two people standing at the two ends of a bridge, and no one is willing to move to the middle. In this situation, how can they possibly meet?

"Teacher Zhang, if Agent Gao likes you, will you agree to her pursuit?" Bai Lu asked.

"Yes." Zhang Wen said.

"Really?" Bai Lu's eyes lit up. Doesn't this mean that Teacher Zhang still has feelings for Sister Yue? Otherwise, why would she agree?

"Of course it's true. As long as she's a beautiful woman, I will agree." Zhang Wen said seriously.

Young men in their twenties are at the peak of their energy. Both psychologically and physically, they need women the most. As long as they are not eunuchs, who would refuse the pursuit of a beautiful woman?

Uh……

Bai Lu was speechless.

Teacher Zhang, Teacher Zhang, could you please not be so honest?

She thought Sister Yue was special to Teacher Zhang, but it turned out that she was nothing special.

It’s over. If nothing unexpected happens, Sister Yue will be in unrequited love for the rest of her life.

"Teacher Zhang, what if I like you?" Bai Lu suddenly asked.

However, after the words were spoken, even Bai Lu himself was stunned.

She didn't want to ask.

I came to see Teacher Zhang just to perform for Sister Yue.

But seeing how indifferent Teacher Zhang was to Sister Yue, I somehow blurted it out.

After she realized what was happening, her face turned red.

Ask for Sister Yue, it’s nothing.

But if you ask yourself, it seems a bit like trying to cover up the truth.

"I agree." Zhang Wen gave the answer without thinking.

Is this a problem?
No!

Which man would not agree if a female star pursues him?

A woman who is both beautiful and rich is hard to find even with a lantern. Now that one has come to your door, who would refuse her?

Not to mention a young female star in her twenties, even if she was in her forties or fifties, Zhang Wen would agree.

The question is whether the female celebrity agrees.

When Bai Lu heard this answer, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

I thought to myself: It seems that I am considered a beauty in Teacher Zhang’s eyes.

However, in the eyes of Gao Yue who was not far away, this expression looked like a successful confession.

Suddenly, she felt as if she had lost something, and her heart was filled with loss.

She didn't want to stay here any longer, so she turned and left the cafeteria.

Bai Lu looked at Sister Yue's absent-minded back and couldn't help laughing.

Is this called dislike?
Would you feel so disappointed if you don’t like it?
Shouldn't we be happy for her?

Sister Yue, Sister Yue, when will you be as capable and strong in your relationships as you are in your career? "I'm done eating." Zhang Wen wiped his mouth with his hands and said to Bai Lu across from him, "Now that the funding issue has been resolved and the director has been secured, shouldn't you, the leading actress, also go back and familiarize yourself with the script? Don't make me feel like I've made a mistake."

He also hoped that the drama would become a hit and make a name for himself in the entertainment industry. That way, the TV drama and movie scripts that he would receive with the blessing of the Star God in the future could also be sold for a good price.

After all, a script written by a junior screenwriter has one price, and a script written by a senior screenwriter has another price.

After hearing this, Bai Lu immediately put away the smile on his face and his expression became serious.

Yes, we have the money, we have the director, and with the support of the company, how long can it be before filming starts?
"Teacher Zhang, please rest assured. I will definitely play the leading female role well and live up to your expectations." Bai Lu said seriously.

In her opinion, if she didn't perform well, the person she would feel the most sorry for would be Teacher Zhang. She would feel sorry for him drinking eight bottles of wine, sorry for him trying so hard to persuade Director Han, and sorry for his expectations...

Too many apologies.

"hope so."

Zhang Wen didn't say anything else and got up and left the cafeteria.

As for Bai Lu's "confession", he did not take it seriously.

Although he admits that he is handsome, he is not narcissistic enough to make female stars throw themselves into his arms.

Moreover, he had something very important to do.

As Zhang Wen walked, he dialed Du Wenjuan's cell phone number.

“Beep…beep…ka!”

Soon, the call was connected.

"Teacher Zhang?"

A faint voice came from the microphone.

"It's me. Do you have time now?" Zhang Wen asked.

"Yes." Du Wenjuan replied.

"Come to Tianxi Media, I'll be waiting for you at the door."

"Ok."

Du Wenjuan answered very straightforwardly and did not ask why. She was now the other party's contracted artist, and she would do whatever the other party asked her to do.

However, considering the audition some time ago, she guessed that today's event should also be related to the audition.

Zhang Wen returned to the training department, printed out a copy of the script of "Perfect Days", put it in a file bag, and left the training department with it.

Outside Tianxi Building.

Zhang Wen stood by the roadside basking in the sun.

The spring sunshine is not as strong as in summer. It feels warm and comfortable on the body.

As a hard-working worker, he rarely basks in the sun and is usually the one being exposed to the sun.

After basking in the sun for more than twenty minutes, a taxi stopped by the roadside. As the door opened, a familiar figure walked out.

It’s Du Wenjuan.

Zhang Wen waved at the other person and handed over the file bag. "This is your next drama. I've already picked a role for you. This time it's the second female lead."

Du Wenjuan was stunned, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and finally another expression appeared on her cold face.

Second female lead?
She has never played such a big role.

Generally speaking, important roles like the leading female role and the second female role are arranged by the director or the investor himself, and there is no chance for a small actor like her with no background to play them.

Even if it is a low-budget TV series.

She reached out to take the briefcase, thinking: It's probably a very low-budget TV series, or a web series.

"Thank you, Teacher Zhang." Du Wenjuan said. Although her voice was as cold as usual, this time there was a hint of gratitude.

She knew that even the second female lead in a very low-budget TV series could not be played by just anyone.

"You're welcome. I won't take you to auditions for some time in the future. You have to focus all your energy on this drama. You must understand the story and the role thoroughly. If you have any questions, you can always call me. I hope that during the audition, you can not only satisfy me, but also Director Han Xiaohua." Zhang Wen said earnestly.

The second female lead in the story not only has a lot of scenes, but also plays a very outstanding role. If she can perform well, it will definitely bring Du Wenjuan great popularity.

Du Wenjuan nodded, but then, as if struck by acupuncture points, she froze in place, motionless. It took her a while to come to her senses. She looked at Zhang Wen in disbelief and stammered, "Han, Director Han Xiaohua? Which Director Han Xiaohua are you talking about?"

"It's the director Han Xiaohua you were thinking of." Zhang Wen said with a smile.

Du Wenjuan opened her eyes wide in surprise. Han Xiaohua is a famous director in China. He has not only produced many popular TV series, but also made countless big stars famous. He is the person many actors dream of working with, because being able to star in Director Han's TV series means becoming famous.

She had just thought it would be a very low-budget TV series, but now, Director Han's TV series must be a big investment and big production.

"Teacher Zhang, can I ask who the leading male and female characters are?" Du Wenjuan asked curiously.

She was very curious to know who would be the actor playing opposite her.

"The male lead has not been decided yet, and the female lead is Bai Lu." Zhang Wen said.

Du Wenjuan took a breath after hearing this.

It turned out to be a new generation of young actress!

She suddenly became nervous. You know, she wasn't this nervous during her first filming.

"Can I, can I?" Du Wenjuan asked in a trembling voice.

She is a big director and a famous actress, so why does she get to play the second female lead?
She has always been very confident in her acting skills, but now she began to doubt herself.

"I think you can do it." Zhang Wen looked at Du Wenjuan and asked, "Why, you don't have confidence?"

"Yeah." Du Wenjuan nodded.

"Don't worry, the second female lead will definitely be yours. What you need to do now is to fully understand the role and accept this overwhelming wealth, do you understand?" Zhang Wen comforted with a smile.

"Teacher Zhang, are you so confident in me?" Du Wenjuan asked curiously. Even if she thought she had acting talent, she couldn't be so blind, right?

This is a TV series directed by Han Xiaohua!

Moreover, Director Han Xiaohua has always had very high expectations for actors, and it is common for him to scold actresses until they cry on the set.

"I don't have confidence in you, I have confidence in myself," said Zhang Wen.

"what?"

Du Wenjuan was even more confused.

What does this mean?
"I'm the screenwriter. If Director Han doesn't agree to let you play the second female lead, I won't work with him." Zhang Wen said seriously.

"..."

Du Wenjuan was so shocked that she didn't know what to say. She had been shocked more times today than in the past ten years combined.

collapsed!

Expression management is completely broken!

The agent who picked her up seems to be extraordinary!
"Okay, let's go back quickly." Zhang Wen waved at Du Wenjuan, then turned and walked into the company.

Du Wenjuan stood there blankly, still digesting everything she had just heard. It felt like she was dreaming.

dream?

She reached out and pinched her thigh.

hiss……

pain!
Not a dream.

She looked down at the file bag in her hand, then looked up at the door of Tianxi Media. Although Agent Zhang was no longer there, she still looked at it for a long time.

What kind of extraordinary person is my agent?
