Huayu: From charlatan to great entertainer

Chapter 134 Beauty
Boss Lu responded calmly, but just looked over the hairdressing enthusiast from head to toe.

Big disappointment!
Her face before plastic surgery was so disgusting.

The body is far from being fully developed and wealthy.

Compared to Boss Lu’s previous bed partners, it’s simply unbearable…

"Xiaolu, go to the conference room and wait for a while. We will audition together later."

"Director, I'm a little tired. Can I sit in your office for a while?"

Boss Lu was speechless. How confident are you, posing so coquettishly here?

"Hey, little deer, go over first."

Ugly rejection! Get lost!
Li Xiaolu looked worried, not knowing what went wrong. Logically speaking, with his conditions and the prior arrangements, he should be able to succeed.

The normal procedure is to get close to him as soon as you meet him, flirt with him in the office, and let him slowly surrender to you, right?
What's wrong?
Sun Wenwen knocked on the door: "Director Lu, Yao Chen is here."

"What? Oh, please come in."

Damn, why are there so many of these guys in the afternoon, one is a hairdresser and the other is the Flower of Evil.

It’s bad character, and the key is that he looks like that!
He flipped through the registration form in his hand without even looking up.

Keep turning! Keep turning!

"Yu Feihong? Zhou Xun, Jiang Qinqin, Li Binbin, Jia Jingwen, Gao Yuanyuan."

Thanks to the good quality of these actresses, I can finally have a look.

Zhou Xun and Jiang Qinqin were both invited to audition for the role of the mother themselves, and with a slight adjustment in their appearance, they could perform the effect of being thirty years old.

I thought Sister Jiang, who had been out of touch for a long time, would refuse, but I didn't expect her to agree happily this time.

Yu Feihong signed up on her own without informing anyone.

Judging from her age, she is actually the best candidate to play the role of a middle-aged mother.

Boss Lu had previously invited two powerful actors, Yu Nan and Yan Bingyan, but their schedules were not suitable.

The most competitive role is for the daughter.

Fan Bingbing, Li Xiaolu, Jia Jingwen and Gao Yuanyuan are all competitors.

It’s a pity that the brave ones enjoy the world first, and Bingbing has sold everything from soul to body to Boss Lu.

Outside the audition room, all the actresses were already in place. They greeted each other calmly and looked quietly at the scripts in their hands.

Li Binbin and Fan Bingbing sat together, the former auditioning for the role of mother.

"Bingbing, what do you think of Director Feng's play?"

Fan Bingbing cursed inwardly, but she still had a smile on her face: "Sister Binbin, I really can't play that role. I still want to try to play the supporting actress in Director Lu's drama."

"But the roles of these two characters are quite different. The only outstanding female character in 'Cell Phone' is Wu Yue, who is basically the female lead!"

Li Binbin tirelessly sells roles to potential competitors, which is due to both her own motives and the instructions of Huayi’s top management.

There are two leading female actors in an agency. How to divide the roles?
These two still have to take different routes so that the company can connect resources later to take on more roles.

Li is 8 years older than Fan and joined Huayi earlier. Ever since her role as the heroine in "Young Justice Bao 2" was snatched away from her, she has been wary of her.

It is difficult to say whether Wang Jinhua and the two Wangs of Huayi forced her to play the role of Wu Yue, or whether she was behind the scenes playing tricks.

She was already squeezed to the point where she could not hold on any longer, but unexpectedly Lu Kuan's invitation gave her a break.

Who in the industry can now refuse a film offer from a Golden Lion Award-winning director?
As long as Fan Bingbing gets this role and turns down the film "Cell Phone" that is scheduled for the same time, he will definitely get the support of Wang Jinhua and Huayi, and no one can say anything.

Li Binbin suddenly thought of the nickname "washing machine" that Zhuo Wei gave Director Lu.

Could it be that this vixen has already climbed onto Lu Kuan's bed?

Zhou Xun and Jiang Qinqin sat together. They hadn't seen each other for a long time.

After "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Zhou Xun released an album and starred in "Balzac and the Little Tailor" with Chen Kun and Liu Ye. She has many film contracts waiting for her in the future.

Jiang Qinqin played a princess in distress in "King of Kings" and co-starred with Ruby Lin in "Half Life".

"Qinqin, I thought you wouldn't come."

Jiang Qinqin smiled and pointed to the photo of Lu Kuan at the awards ceremony in Venice on the cultural wall of Wenjie.

"Xun'er, could you have imagined that he would get to this point?"

Zhou Xun also laughed: "At first I thought he was a little Taoist priest pretending to be a ghost, but I didn't expect that in just one year, he seemed like a completely different person."

In fact, she realized it later and had already vaguely guessed what happened between the two of them that night when they were drunk.

Later, some clues could be seen from the unpleasant conversation between the two at the buffet.

This clearly shows that I have feelings for you, but you are heartless...

Judging from the results, Lu Kuan played an irresponsible role.

But how could Lu Kuan, who was penniless and had no place to live in Peking, decisively reject a successful actress like Jiang Qinqin?

Zhou Xun found it unbelievable.

There is only one possibility, that is, Lu Kuan himself never doubted that he would succeed.

With his personality and behavior, he would never let himself be entangled by these romantic affairs.

Whether as a director or a businessman, his purpose is very clear, and all his actions are aimed at making profits.

Zhou Xun, who thought he already understood this little god, thought so.

"The third one is Ms. Zhou Xun."

Jiang Qinqin patted her forearm in amusement: "What are you daydreaming about? It's your turn now."

"Oh, then I'll go first."

Generally speaking, in a mature film industry system, casting is a procedural and professional job.

In the mature domestic film and television production chain of later generations, there is an important link dedicated to casting: the casting studio. Some of the more famous ones include CD HOME, Haohan Xingpan, and Shepherd Star.

There are also some cultural media companies that also run brokerage businesses, and they generally give priority to their own people, such as Huayi and Xiaoma Paopeng in the circle.

For small crews with lower budgets or film and television production companies that intend to cut costs, producers and directors basically screen from the resources within their own circle.

Looking for the most cost-effective actors, and accepting self-recommendations from some actors and teams.

For Lu Kuan, due to his foresight, all he had to consider was the actor's schedule, and the audition process was just a formality.

There were more than ten actresses auditioning for the two roles, and the audition lasted from 8: p.m. to : p.m.

The results were not announced on site, but everyone was promised that news would be given within three days.

These famous artists have very tight work schedules, so whether this film can be released and how to coordinate the release schedule after it is released are all issues that need to be considered.

No one has time to be dragged on.

Therefore, the casting hype of Big Beard was criticized. When it came to "The Return of the Condor Heroes", many female stars had already announced that they would give up the role and would not participate in the audition before the promotion started.

A slap in the face!

"Jingwen, why didn't you leave?"

Boss Lu was exhausted after sitting for an entire afternoon. He was standing in the corridor smoking when someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind.

"Director, was my performance good today?"

Lu Kuan was hurt by some ugly female stars in the afternoon. Fortunately, there were actresses like Fan Bingbing and Jia Jingwen who were in their prime years to correct the situation.

Let’s not talk about whether this person is the goddaughter or not, just her sweet appearance and voice carry a special sexual tension.

Zhao Min, you understand men.

But the boss of our road cannot privatize the bus just out of "love"!

"Sure, we'll have to wait for the specific results, haha."

"Don't be discouraged if you weren't chosen. I think you could try out 'Chinese Paladin'. There are many outstanding female characters in it."

Seeing that he was unmoved, Jia Jingwen had no choice but to increase the intensity.

She coquettishly pulled Lu Kuan's arm and said, "Oh, Director, I've acted in too many TV dramas. I still want to do it with you..."

"I'm a movie producer~~~"

Boss Lu was shocked. What a powerful move! It was indeed a girl-lifting move.
Taking advantage of Wu Dun's absence today, Jia Jingwen got closer and closer, almost rubbing Boss Lu's forearm into her body.

As his body swayed, Boss Lu could almost feel the hard edge of the underwear.

The two bright lips were so charming and tempting, and she looked at the young director with such tenderness and love.

"Well... come to my office."

I'm sorry, Great Protector, the sexual happiness that you can't give me, I, Boss Lu, will give it to you!

The two of them left like a gust of wind.

"Qinqin? What are you looking at?"

"Oh, it's okay...it's okay."

"Xun'er, are you busy tonight? Want to have a couple of drinks?"

Jiang Qinqin came back to her senses. She had originally wanted to find Lu Kuan to chat, but she didn't expect to see this ambiguous scene when she turned the corner.
It’s a bit ridiculous when you think about it.

She had indeed had a crush on Lu Kuan at first, although there was a huge gap in their status at that time, but after she had suffered a heartbreak, she really wanted to lean on this man's chest to recover.

However, his true feelings, which had not yet been expressed, were politely rejected by Lu Kuan.

She didn't understand why at the time.

Looking back a year later, I've given up hope.

Lu Kuan had long known how far he would go and what he was pursuing.

She also knew that the sincerity that had just sprouted in her heart could not be exchanged for anything with him.

Jiang Qinqin asked herself, if it were her, she would probably also decisively leave her "sticky" love brain.

There was only one room in Wenjie Culture Company with the lights on: the chairman's office.

"Director... um..."

The girl suddenly covered her mouth and raised her head, trying to find paper or a cup.

Boss Lu exhaled a puff of smoke with satisfaction, smiled and touched the girl's smooth and pretty face.

"hehe."

Jia Jingwen suddenly raised her head, her face almost flushed with anxiety.

Boss Lu's gentle and polite "hehe" at this time sounded like an evil "hehehe" to her ears!

After some tidying up, the Taiwanese actress quickly adjusted her state.

"Director... is it really only possible to perform "Chinese Paladin" first? If possible..."

Boss Lu understood what she wanted to say.

"Jingwen, there's a lot of time to come. I'll have someone say hello. You can audition for 'Chinese Paladin' first. I think there will be many opportunities for us to work together in the future."

"Okay, thank you, Director~~~"

After Boss Lu finished his cigarette, he packed up and went downstairs. Ah Fei had been waiting for him downstairs.

Jia Jingwen's image and acting skills are not a big problem for "Chinese Paladin", and her popularity has remained high after "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber".

You may make a lot of money, but I, Boss Lu, will never lose money!
