Chapter 74: Miscanthus Grows on the Mountaintop
After a whole night, Liao Tang woke up with a terrible headache. Sister Xin has already gone to the company, and she is going to meet Tang Yunan at the airport later.
Until......
"Hey, is that Miss Liao?"
"You are?"
"I'm Zhang Jie from the LUA Secretarial Department, and we have made an appointment for you for an on-site interview at two o'clock this afternoon, and I hope you can be there on time. ”
"Can it only be today?"
"Yes. ”
Liao Tang put on light makeup, and his complexion looked much better. Her mood was very complicated, and she took her mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to Tang Yunan: "I suddenly have an urgent matter in the afternoon and can't come over, so I invite you to dinner in the evening." After thinking about it, he sent another sentence: "I'm sorry, brother." ”
After waiting for a while, the mobile phone didn't ring, and Tang Yunan probably hadn't gotten off the plane yet.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, a girl wearing a pink lapel coat and a skirt walked out of the secretary's office with a contract, Liao Tang just passed by her, she had a fair and beautiful goose egg face, and there was a faint Sicilian citrus fragrance in the air when she left, with a sweet and sour fresh pleasure.
When Liao Tang pushed the door and walked into the office she had just come out of, she realized that she was the girl who followed Lu Tingye yesterday.
Liao Tang wondered if he would have to meet Lu Tingye later, and his eyes inadvertently became a little cold.
Zhang Jie, the female secretary sitting inside, looked at Liao Tang who came in and smiled politely, she knew that the girl in her early twenties in front of her was not small, and her personal comprehensive quality and ability were the best among all the trainees of the partner Korean entertainment company.
Not only that, when LUA and Korean entertainment were docked, the prince of Korean entertainment and the male star Nan Xujia repeatedly proposed to give her opportunities for work development and a certain amount of care in her debut.
In the early stage of the production of variety shows, because of their limited influence, directors will not only use their connections to find contestants to sign up, but some programs will even promise rankings, and the programs that are very popular in themselves are held on strong satellite TV platforms, and some contestants are generally directly related to their mentors, and most of them are tools for hype in the show.
In addition, music schools, record companies, manufacturers and other units often recommend some players to come to the competition. And LUA is to let newcomers show their faces through competitions, promote their newcomers, and increase their popularity.
Liao Tang said: "Miss Zhang, the program team has sent the specific process to my mobile phone, do I still need an interview now?"
Zhang Jie was quiet for a while, then smiled.
"You are a trainee that our company is about to sign a contract, in order for you to have more shots in the programs invested by our company, be loved by fans, and occupy the hot search headlines, I hope you can follow our arrangements at work. ”
Maximize the benefits of both parties.
Liao Tang nodded and raised his eyes to look at the female secretary who was working for his boss.
Could this be what Lu Tingye meant? Liao Tang couldn't help but think.
"The script is for you, and there is a character in it that you should show. ”
After speaking, Zhang Jie pushed the thin book with the cover in front of Liao Tang.
Liao Tang knows the inside story of some variety shows, after all, there have been many scandals in South Korea in this regard, and there is evidence.
Generally, the organizer will have a preliminary communication with these contestants participating in the competition, similar to pulling into the small black room to talk about signing a contract, then the most important factor of communication is whether the contestant can sign a contract with the organizer's agency, if so, then the organizer will definitely deliberately guide our audience and fans to choose such a player.
Traffic needs to be monetized, and it will not be given in vain. If some brokerage invitations are not in the hands of the organizer, the organizer will be equivalent to selecting a champion and making a wedding dress for other brokerage companies.
Liao Tang and LUA signed a contract of the same nature.
"Among the more than 100 participants, how many companies are there?"
Zhang Jie pinned her broken hair behind her ears, straightened her back, sat in a dignified and formal manner, and said to Liao Tang without changing her face: "Our company has two places, and it is inconvenient for us to disclose the opinions of advertisers." ”
Liao Tang heard what she meant, and there were also internal contestants on the advertiser's side.
I didn't expect that I would take on such an interesting talent show as soon as I returned to China, and there was a little more smile on the corner of Liao Tang's mouth.
casually flipped through the content of the script, and the director gave her a silly white sweet character, because she looks non-aggressive and is easy to stimulate the protective desire of the people around her, it is perfect to choose such a mask.
Since ancient times, everyone has understood that the simpler the lie, the better, and the character design is also a kind of lie.
The character of the academic bully should be designed, how many points are in the domestic college entrance examination, which famous school you go to, and what level of degree you read; Aristocratic personality, how much money the family has, how many famous brands have been bought, and what luxury cars they drive. In order to deceive people, it is common to be simple and easy to verify, after all, not everyone has the energy to dig deeper.
But in the entertainment industry, it is different, many celebrities are required to establish an extremely complex image, which is difficult to be understood by people outside the spotlight.
"Can the crying scene be reduced a little?"
Liao Tang blinked.
There are a few crying scenes arranged in the script, and the scenes given to the camera in the show are quite unusual, she feels that she will not be complained about by the audience if she continues to act like this, and she will not be able to stand such an unburdened behavior to release her emotions.
"You can negotiate with the director later, we can't interfere in the production of the program. ”
Liao Tang lowered his eyes, and did not continue to embarrass her.
The busy employees in this company are all cold and can't see the slightest human touch, and if you think about it, this feeling seems to have never disappeared around her.
"Well, thanks. ”
Seeing that the conversation was about to end, Zhang Jie said: "Also, the company has assigned you an agent, whether it is work or private life, you need to keep in close contact with him after your debut." ”
Liao Tang frowned slightly, his beautiful apricot eyes narrowed, like a lazy cat that had just woken up, and his eyes were a little dazed.
She was silent for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Okay." ”
But as long as artists can make a choice, they are willing to cooperate with excellent agents. Celebrities can find their own agents, and she can only follow the company's arrangement.
"The last requirement before signing the contract is that there can be no rumors of a love affair with anyone. ”
"Good. ”
◇◇◇
The set of "Acacia".
Lu Tingye dined in the crew, he was not a picky eater, and his knuckles were slender with chopsticks, like white and flawless jade.
Li Xiyue was stunned for a few seconds.
There are many people in the crew, but they generally don't coax Lu Tingye, who is like a god, and no mortal can get close to him, has a girl come to visit the class today, and the insiders are too familiar with that girl, the daughter of LUA competitor Li Cheng Entertainment, has had several scandals between the two before, and they have been clarified.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lu Tingye doesn't have that heart for her, but it's a pity that the little girl is wishful thinking, and he will follow him wherever he goes.
"Brother Lu, I went to your company today to get a debut contract, and we can work in the same company soon. ”
The man was cold and clear, his eyes dark and calm.
Li Xiyue's eyes were gloomy, and she continued: "I have begged my eldest sister for a long time, and even went on a hunger strike for this reason, and I want to get the opportunity to sign a contract with a LUA artist......"
"Hmm. ”
Li Xiyue hesitated, "You will take care of me in private, right?"
The man's eyebrows were cold, and there was no trace of emotion in his dark eyes.
Li Xiyue subconsciously lowered her head, looking pitiful.
And a very cold male voice still lingered in her ears......
"I'm going to get busy first. ”
Li Xiyue was so angry that she couldn't do it, she had taken the initiative with him for so many years, but he was still like an iceberg that could not be thawed, like a miscanthus growing on the top of the mountain, the closer she got to it, the farther away she became.
Lu Tingye walked in front of Director Xiang with the script, and Director Xiang immediately greeted him with a smile.
The talented heroine Ning Haitang was pestering the director not to let him go, and in the morning, because she couldn't enter the play, Lu Tingye NG was involved several times, and Director Xiang felt very embarrassed.
"I felt the need to replace the heroine. ”
Lu Tingye's voice was cold, and he got straight to the point.
Director Xiang smiled awkwardly, knowing that he had provoked this god who no one in the circle dared to provoke, he tried to alleviate the sudden solemn atmosphere, "Ning Haitang dared to come over and tell me that it was Mr. Lu's acting skills that were too superb and she couldn't play seriously." ”
Lu Tingye's eyebrows moved slightly, as if he was not interested in his words, he frowned and looked at Xiang Dao, "Do you want to change it?"
Seeing that there was no room for negotiation, Director Xiang hurriedly said, "Change, of course." ”
"Do you have any recommendations?"
Xiang Sicheng took out a cigarette and stuffed it in his mouth, handed another one to Lu Tingye, and lit it.
"Can I bring new people into the group?"
As soon as the words fell, Xiang Sicheng's expression suddenly froze, and then he burst out laughing.
"I thought you guys weren't interested in the Li family's sister, it turned out that he was hiding it. Xiang Dao spit out a puff of smoke rings and said, "No problem, I think she is quite suitable, you can try it." ”
“......”
Lu Tingye frowned at Xiang Sicheng, "I didn't say it was her." ”
Xiang Sicheng scratched his forehead: "...... Isn't she?"
Lu Tingye was silent.
There was a stalemate for half a minute.
But it was Lu Tingye's gaze that swept away, and a cold smile overflowed from his lips.
"It could be her. After all, the newcomers in my family need the opportunity to develop. ”
“......”
Xiang Sicheng: "Why do I think you have a premeditated plan to suppress Li Cheng's new Xiaohuadan?"
Lu Tingye seemed to smile, and his eyes became colder and colder.
"I don't care much about the company's affairs, but I'm serious about acting. ”
The two chatted for a while, and the filming of the rival scenes of the male and female protagonists of "Lovesickness" decided to delay, and it was better to shoot the supporting roles and the male protagonists separately than to let Ning Haitang's embarrassing acting skills continue to delay the filming process.
"Lu Tingye!"
In the private powder room, a roar broke the silence of the original atmosphere.
Lu Tingye's eyes didn't open, the makeup artist was giving him a background color, and the red and white oil paint was mixed into a tender flesh color, and when the makeup artist stopped his movements, he was still unfazed.
"Is there something wrong?"
In the mirror, Ning Haitang's angry appearance was reflected, she was wearing a black bandeau dress, and the makeup on her face was a little flowery, and she was glaring at him resentfully at this time.
"We're old classmates, how can you say that you will replace me...... There is no affection at all. ”
"Which old classmate. ”
The cold voice was a little tired, and the dark eyes were pressed down, and there was some impatience in them.
“......”
The woman's smile froze.
"I'm Ning Qin, and I was good friends with Liao Tang in high school. ”
Hearing the name behind Lu Tingye's expression flashed slightly, and he looked at her seriously.
"I don't know. ”
