Chapter 587: Selling Personal Favors

Tony didn't rest yet, and quickly answered He Jinxia's question and gave a positive answer.

When she knew that Tony could help the crew find a makeup artist, He Jinxia thought about it and didn't reply to Xu Xiuzi as soon as possible.

She doesn't want to develop the habit of Xu Xiuzi coming to her for help whenever she has any problems, there are clear hierarchies in the entertainment industry, and most celebrities will only make friends with stars of the same level or the next level, because in this way they can get more benefits.

Even if Xu Xiuzi is her favored junior, such behavior has gone beyond it.

He Jinxia is not a kind-hearted person, and Xu Xiuzi's current coffee position is not enough for her to help, unless Duan Yu sends a message to her, she will help the director's face.

The most difficult thing to repay is the personal debt, Tony is well-connected and can find friends in Berlin to help, but the reason why Tony will help is because of He Jinxia's face.

And now, He Jinxia wants to sell this favor to Duan Yu.

If it is sold to Xu Xiuzi, it is too cost-effective.

Duan Yu came to her as a "help".

Xu Xiuzi came to her, but she could only "beg".

On the other side, Xu Xiuzi didn't see He Jinxia's response for a long time, and couldn't help frowning, thinking that even He Jinxia couldn't do anything?

She didn't want to show up on the red carpet in Berlin with a terrible makeup!

Xi Jing kept calling on the side, she wanted to ask other friends if they knew a good makeup artist in Berlin, after all, those friends often go abroad, and a few of them have also been to Berlin this year, but unfortunately all the replies they get are negative.

After searching all the friends she could think of, but still couldn't find a solution, Xi Jing frowned, sighed, looked up at the time, and it was already eleven o'clock in the evening.

She turned her head to look at Xu Xiuzi and found that Xu Xiuzi also looked solemn.

Xi Jing's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help asking: "Did Senior Jinxia reply, can she find someone over there?"

Xu Xiuzi shook her head, "No, I sent several messages, but she didn't reply to me, because they were sent a little frequently, I didn't dare to post them anymore, did you say she fell asleep and didn't see it?"

Xi Jing frowned, this is very possible.

"Have you called her on the phone?"

Xu Xiuzi shook her head again, with a heavy face: "I don't have her phone." ”

She recalled that in the afternoon, she originally wanted to exchange phone numbers with He Jinxia, but He Jinxia smiled and told her that they all used letters now, so they exchanged them> Xi Jing asked tentatively: "Then why don't you make a voice call in the letter?"

Xu Xiuzi is also inclined to do this, but whenever she is about to press it, a feeling of something is wrong will rise in her heart, think about it carefully, with her current relationship with He Jinxia, it should not be enough to make a voice call.

It's just that......

She's not just for herself, she's also for the whole crew, so it's okay to bother He Jinxia, right?

Xu Xiuzi fell into a tangle.

Just as she was determined to make a voice call, Xi Jing's mobile phone suddenly rang, and this call interrupted Xu Xiuzi's courage that she had finally mustered.

Xi Jing's eyes lit up and said, "It's the director calling!"

Xu Xiuzi hurriedly leaned in to listen together.

Duan Yu's voice came from the phone, and he asked anxiously, "How is it, have you found a way?"

Xi Jing and Xu Xiuzi looked disappointed, looking forward to a match.

Xi Jing said: "No, my friends around me don't know makeup artists here in Berlin, and even if they do, they don't have a good relationship with makeup artists who can take the lead in helping us with makeup." ”

She hesitated for a moment and told Xu Xiuzi and He Jinxia how to ask for help.

"Xiuxiu has a letter from Jinxia's seniors, and she sent her a message an hour ago, wanting to see if Jinxia's seniors can think of a way, but she hasn't answered, and she doesn't know if she's asleep. ”

Duan Yu thought for a moment and said decisively, "I'll try to contact her." ”

……

On the soft and comfortable hotel bed, He Jinxia was lying on the bed rolling boredly, she was chatting with Sheng Yan, and she didn't feel guilty about putting aside the news sent by Xu Xiuzi.

Sheng Yan felt that she was uneasy, and couldn't help asking, "Is there anything bothering?"

He Jinxia thought for a while and shook his head: "It's not a big problem, I can solve it, now I'm just waiting for someone to call me." ”

Sheng Yan frowned, "Man's?"

He Jinxia hesitated and nodded.

Sheng Yan raised his eyebrows: "Don't wait, turn off the phone immediately." ”

He Jinxia was stunned, a little crying and laughing, stretched out his finger and poked the screen, puffed out his mouth and said, "Mr. Sheng Yan, have you noticed that you have been very jealous recently?"

Sheng Yan said without changing his face: "Yes, why didn't I see it?"

He Jinxia complained, yes, you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep.

She smiled and said: "I'm waiting for the crew director to call me, he needs me a favor, I can sell him a favor, as a rookie director who has just graduated and filmed his first work and was shortlisted for Berlin, he has a high starting point." ”

Sheng Yan's eyes condensed slightly, and he heard who He Jinxia was talking about, and said sharply: "A high starting point does not mean that the achievements will be higher in the future, and because he is young, he is more likely to get lost, and it is not for nothing that literary films are so difficult to get out in the film industry." ”

He Jinxia nodded, she agreed with Sheng Yan's idea.

It's a good thing that the director wants to make a literary film, but the premise is that he can support himself by making this film, if he can't support himself, is there any point in shooting?

Of course, some people may choose to give unconditionally because of their ideals, dreams, and interests, but this kind of dedication cannot last long.

He Jinxia can see that "Eighteen-Year-Old Sky" is nominally three directors, but in the on-site shooting, it was Duan Yu who made the final decision, and the three directors were all headed by Duan Yu.

Duan Yu is still very young, and there are infinite possibilities in the future, and he may not be able to withstand the temptation of money.

Some literary film directors have been very successful in transforming into commercial directors, but behind the success, there are more deaths of literary and artistic directors.

Duan Yu's beginning was smooth, because the first literary film he shot was shortlisted for the Berlin Film Festival.

Even if he doesn't get any awards, just a shortlisting is enough for him to not have to worry about the money to make a movie in the next three years, and some people will invest in him.

If he can go to the next level in these three years, then the investor will make money, but if he doesn't win any awards, many people will definitely withdraw their investments after three years, and that will be Duan Yu's nightmare.

It's just that who can say for sure what will happen in the future, maybe Duan Yu is very talented in shooting literary films, and several works shot later have also been shortlisted for major film festivals and even won awards?

Through the virgin seat of "Eighteen-year-old Sky", He Jinxia found that Duan Yu is the kind of director who can capture the taste of the judges.

His treatment techniques and shooting style are close to the academic school, buckle the theme, and the works he shoots can be voted to the judges' favor, as long as he does not change the style, his next works will have a great possibility of being shortlisted.
