Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 64 How about... you be the heroine

"I will talk to them. A contract with a salary of $1 doesn't require too many conditions."

Anthony didn't pay much attention to it.

For an actor of his level, the agent will negotiate corresponding conditions with the crew, from accommodation to meals. Anything below a certain level will be considered a breach of contract by the crew.

But since Anthony was planning to make a free guest appearance, he naturally wouldn't care about these details.

"Thank you so much!"

Gu Bei was also so excited that he stood up and shook hands with Anthony.

“I still like this role very much.

At least... no one would associate him with Hannibal."

Anthony shook hands with Gu Bei and made a little joke.

He has been very optimistic about Gu Bei since the Sundance Film Festival.

Whether it is directing skills or acting skills,
Gu Bei's proficiency was so great that he didn't seem like a newcomer at all.

What he didn't expect was that,
Gu Bei was able to get the opportunity to make his first feature film so quickly.

Of course, optimism is only one side of the story.

What finally made him make up his mind was Gu Bei's character.

Even in the face of doubts from a genius director like Quentin,
Gu Bei's rebuttal was very confident and he never doubted his script from beginning to end.

Even though he apologized to Gu Bei many times, Gu Bei never mentioned Quentin when he was trying to convince him.

Have skills, character, and sense of propriety.

Anthony couldn't think of a director like this, so how could he not make it in Hollywood?

Regardless of whether Gu Bei will give him a great reward in the future,
Just to support such a talented director,
That sense of accomplishment cannot be compared with the pay!
Gu Bei chatted with Anthony for a while before finally leaving Anthony's apartment with Liu Yifei.

"How did it feel to meet a Hollywood star for the first time?"

This was actually Gu Bei’s first time having in-depth contact with a celebrity.

The last time we met at the Salt Lake City airport, we just had a brief chat, and Anthony mainly rested in the business car later.

Even in his previous life, Gu Bei had never met any celebrities in real life, but he asked his classmates from Penguin Pictures to get some autographed photos to give away.

"It feels like... just an ordinary old man."

Liu Yifei said very honestly.

Celebrities are also human beings, including herself, and none of them are as glamorous as they appear on the screen.

After a pause, she remembered the scene where Anthony demonstrated Hannibal's eyes:
“But his acting is just amazing!
It’s so amazing that I may never be able to reach that level in my lifetime!"

In just a few seconds, he transformed from a kind and ordinary old man into Dr. Hannibal, who used humans as food.

She felt that she might never be able to achieve it in her lifetime!

Good thing...

She also has a system.

When my acting skills are at 100 points, I wonder if I can reach that level?

“Your goals are set too high!
He didn't even get into drama school, yet he's already thinking about reaching the top."

Gu Bei's hands were almost unable to hold on while driving. He admired her for setting such a high goal from the beginning.

"Humph!"

Liu Yifei snorted in dissatisfaction and glanced at Gu Bei who was driving.

Her unwillingness to admit defeat came up.

She will work hard quietly and then surprise everyone!

"but……"

Gu Bei thought of what Anthony said when he came in.

He had only kept it in his mind before, but now he could give it a try: "We just happen to be in need of a leading lady, how about... you be the leading lady?"

"Ah?" Liu Yifei was stunned for a while.

She didn't know how to react for a moment.

This is a film that will go to the Cannes International Film Festival.
At the Sundance Film Festival, domestic filmmakers came, but the media did not.
But when we get to Cannes, given its status, there will definitely be a lot of domestic media present.

Zhou Qianqian’s identity will definitely be lost!
"Jingle Bell!"

A quick ring interrupted Liu Yifei's thoughts.

She picked up the phone and saw it was Xia Mengqi, so she hung up immediately.

"It all depends on your own wishes. If you don't like being a movie actor and only like drama, there's no need to participate."

Gu Bei didn't know what she was thinking either.

Hollywood is a world of fame and fortune. Some people like it, while others hate it.

Zhou Qianqian did not appear in the public eye in her previous life. Perhaps she was someone who was unwilling to take this path.

But if she gave up on this path because of what happened to Liu Yifei, Gu Bei was willing to pave the way for her.

"I'll read the script first."

Liu Yifei chose to delay it for now.

The two drove back to the office.

Gu Bei took out a script, folded the pages and handed it over.

"Is this the heroine you were talking about?"

Liu Yifei was a little amused and helpless.

It was a thick script, but only about five or six pages were folded.

Based on the one minute per page of the script, it only takes about five or six minutes.

"She's been the male lead's girlfriend, and she's also the female character with the most screen time in the entire film. If she's not the heroine, what is she?"

The face of Melissa Benoist appeared in Gu Bei's mind.
As the actor who originally played this role, he was quite impressed.

Although the heroine appears only a few times, each time she appears, it indicates a change in the hero's mentality.

If it were really performed, it would probably leave a deep impression on many viewers.

"So why does she like the male lead?"

After watching her part, Liu Yifei still couldn't understand the logic behind it.

Gu Bei casually flipped open the script and pointed to a line: "Look here... This implies that she is just a cowboy girl from the Midwest of North America,

In the big city of New York, she doesn't fit in and is an outsider just like the male protagonist, so she accepts the male protagonist's invitation to a date.

"What's in common between the two of us attracted her?" Liu Yifei thought about it.

"No...she's lonely."

The answer given by Gu Bei did not contain any trace of romantic love.

Liu Yifei was speechless and rolled her eyes at him.

"If you were to play the role, I would change her into an orphan who was adopted since childhood. Because of her skin color, she has never been able to integrate into society and her family. She feels like an outsider."

Gu Bei already had a modification plan in mind. The cowboy girl with an Asian face was too abrupt, but identity recognition is an innate proposition for minorities.

After listening to it, Liu Yifei found that the character was much closer to her.

Although she didn't study here for a long time, she suffered a lot.

After a pause, she made up her mind: "Okay, I'll take it!"

"Congratulations, you've received another pension insurance!"

The actors' share may not be as great as that of the producers, but it is also a long-term guarantee.

When Liu Yifei heard this, her eyes widened slightly.

What kind of pension insurance is this?

This irritating ghost,
The tone of her voice is almost the same as that of the system that thought she was 38 years old!
