"Mr. Ma, a friend of mine is interested in your house, can I bring him over to see the house now?" A man's voice came from the other end of the line.

Ma Jingtao glanced at the suitcase in the living room, felt that he no longer had any nostalgia for this place, turned his head into the microphone and said, "I'm at home, you can come over at any time." ”

Hanging up the phone, Ma Jingtao sat on the sofa with his hands on his forehead, and fell into deep thought. About a month ago, he didn't even think about leaving Taiwan, but now he has been forced by public opinion to leave, which is really ironic.

The reason for this incident was that Ma Jingtao was interviewed by reporters at a party, but a drunk insider kept making trouble next to him, saying that he knew that he was in the limelight when he was filming, and he would not cooperate with others at all.

Ma Jingtao became an actor because of a very fortuitous chance, at first he was just an intern assistant in a TV station, and later there was a movie that planned to find a newcomer to play the second male lead, Ma Jingtao's senior recommended him to try, and the director took a fancy to him at a glance. After acting in this movie, Ma Jingtao became famous, and from 1984 to 1988, he acted in seven or eight TV series such as "The Hometown of the Stars" in one go.

Although he has never studied acting and has not much experience, Ma Jingtao believes that "actors must have a desire to conquer and stimulate their aura on the screen", so from the beginning, his performance seemed "fierce, ruthless, and accurate". Relying on his self-created "Ma's style", in 1987, he stole the limelight of the male number one in the TV series "Cold Moon Lone Star Sword" and became a popular student in Taiwan.

Ma Jingtao became famous because of this, and also annoyed some actors who filmed with him because of this. Some people even say that he deliberately steals the show. In the past, it was okay to talk about it behind your back. This time, the drunk guy said this in front of Ma Jingtao and the media, and Ma Jingtao was hilarious on the spot.

He just wanted to invite this person out of the hall and not disturb himself for an interview with reporters, but he was just about to push the other side out of the door, but the man punched him violently, breaking the bridge of his nose.

Ma Jingtao covered his nose and fell, and the guy who beat the person woke up in fright, and hurriedly sent the person to the hospital.

When receiving treatment in the hospital. A reporter broke in to take pictures and interviews, although Ma Jingtao was a victim of this incident, it was not a glorious thing to be beaten after all, and he didn't want to make a noise.

But the reporter was unwilling and had to interview him, and the two had a conflict.

Later, the hospital came forward to mediate, and Ma Jingtao reconciled with the reporter in person, thinking that the matter would be over, but he did not expect that the next day, Taiwan's newspaper with the largest circulation published the news with a big headline "Ma Jingtao made trouble after drinking".

Ma Jingtao saw the newspaper. The head "banged" to the ground, and calmed down afterwards. only to find that I had fallen into the trap designed by the other party from the beginning.

After the incident, Ma Jingtao's acting work was greatly hindered, but he felt that he was right and refused to compromise, so he had a plan to sell his house and go to the UK for further study.

Bang bang bang!

The knock on the door interrupted Ma Jingtao's thoughts, he raised his hand to look at his watch, he didn't expect the person to come so quickly. opened the door, but the person who came surprised Ma Jingtao.

"Brother Lu, why are you here?"

Lu Jie looked at Ma Jingtao with a smile on his face, "What, you're not welcome?" ”

"How come, it's just that Brother Lu, you didn't say a word when you came, so I wasn't prepared at all." Ma Jingtao hurriedly got out of the way and invited Lu Jie into the house, during this time he was upset by the negative reports of the media, so he was naturally in no mood to clean up the room, plus he was about to leave, let alone invite someone to clean up, Lu Jie suddenly visited, Ma Jingtao hurriedly cleaned up for a while, and only then did he sort out a position where he could sit down.

Lu Jie glanced at the suitcase placed in the living room, and frowned slightly, "The luggage is packed, are you leaving Taiwan?" ”

Ma Jingtao's first movie was recommended by Lu Jie to the director, and the relationship between the two has always been very good, of course Ma Jingtao will not lie to Lu Jie, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Lu thinks it's interesting for me to continue to stay?" ”

"Do you think you did nothing wrong and just leave?" Lu Jie asked rhetorically.

Ma Jingtao sat down opposite Lu Jie with a dejected face, "But I can't change anything if I stay." ”

"There are many things that you don't think there is hope, but in fact, you don't see where the hope is." Lu Jie shook his head and took out a script from the briefcase he was carrying, "Let's take a look at this first." ”

The script was only a thin three-page paper, and Ma Jingtao read it quickly, and then raised his head blankly. Only the first scene of the male protagonist is written in this script, and the information revealed is very limited, only that Lu Dao is a Qing Dynasty elder brother who accompanied the emperor to hunt, and then shot and wounded a folk girl who broke into the royal hunting ground as an assassin.

The character and the overall plot are not introduced, Lu Jie took such a script, and Ma Jingtao was still confused after reading it.

Lu Jie shrugged, "You don't have to look at me like that, I don't have a complete script in my hand, you just need to tell me one sentence, act or not." ”

Ma Jingtao hesitated for a moment with the script, but shook his head at the end.

In Ma Jingtao's view, there is a good chance that this script has no overall concept, and it is estimated that the plot will be written while filming, which is generally not done by producers with any strength, and this is also in line with his current situation. If you can hire a good actor, who would have thought of finding him, a person who is "notorious" in the newspapers, to play the starring role?

To make such a bad movie, it is better to go to the UK and study seriously for a year.

Lu Jie couldn't laugh or cry at Ma Jingtao's thoughts, so he slapped him on the head directly: "Do you know who the heroines of this drama are?" Zhao Yazhi, who has acted in "Shanghai Tang" and "Chu Liuxiang", and Pan Yingzi, who is now the most popular in Taiwan! ”

Ma Jingtao's whole person was stunned all of a sudden, and his brain paused for a few seconds to react, Zhao Yazhi and Pan Yingzi are the heroines, this can't be a joke, right?

Lu Jie spread his hands and said: "This script was handed over to you by Ms. Zhou You, and the investor of this TV series is Mr. Lin Youlun from Hong Kong, now you should understand, I'm not joking, right?" ”

Ma Jingtao pinched himself hard, making sure he wasn't dreaming, and then the slamming knock on the door pulled him back to reality again.

This time, the people who watched the house came, but Ma Jingtao made up an excuse and blocked people out of the door, since there was a scene to film, he suddenly didn't want to sell the house.

——

Lu Jie came out of the building where Ma Jingtao's family lived and immediately called Zhou You back.

"Ms. Zhou, everything has been done."

Zhou You encouraged Lu Jie twice, put down the phone, and then his eyes fell on the information on the table.

Among the two people Lin Youlun is looking for, Ma Jingtao has already done it, but the remaining Jiao Enjun makes Zhou You a little embarrassed, but the reason is because he is an actor from the Taiwan Television training class and is now serving in the military.

Regarding Jiao Enjun's information, this information in Zhou You's hand is recorded in detail, Jiao Enjun did not play any important roles at all in the two years before joining the army, Lin Youlun would be interested in such an inconspicuous little person, which really made Zhou You a little incomprehensible.

Through some background relationships behind him, Zhou You has confirmed that this Jiao Enjun will be discharged from the army early next year, and he can catch up with the filming of "Huanzhu Gege" in time, but before that, Zhou You still decided to take a look at this actor who is so valued by Lin Youlun in person.

——

A military camp in Tainan.

"Report to the chief, a second company Jiao Enjun has been ordered to come, please instruct!" A loud voice was accompanied by a neat military salute, and a tall young soldier appeared at the office door.

"Come in!" The officer sitting behind the desk had a dignified expression on his face.

Jiao Enjun walked in without squinting, and suddenly found that there was another guest in the chief's office.

The officer pointed at Jiao Enjun and introduced the female guest, "Miss Zhou, this is the person you are looking for." ”

"There's Chief Lao Liu." Zhou You bowed slightly and thanked the officer.

"Then I won't hinder Ms. Zhou." After the officer finished speaking, he got up and walked out, leaving Jiao Enjun with a stunned face.

In fact, since Jiao Enjun shouted "report" at the door, Zhou You has been looking at this young soldier, who is tall and stands straight, and has a good impression at first glance.

But it's just good, if Jiao Enjun only has these things, Zhou You will only be disappointed, because among the actors she knows, people who meet these conditions are grabbing a lot, and she came this time to see what is unique about Jiao Enjun.

Through close observation, Zhou You finally found that Jiao Enjun's eyes are very distinctive, mainly because of those eyes, mysterious, charming, melancholy, fierce, and affectionate, as if he can express whatever he wants.

After making such a discovery, Zhou You felt that the young man in front of him was a little interesting.

"My name is Zhou You, you have been in the entertainment industry for a while, you should know who I am, right?"

A look of surprise flashed in Jiao Enjun's eyes. As a Taiwanese TV producer on the same level as Zhou Linggang, Qiong Yao, and Yang Peipei, he has naturally heard of Zhou You's name, but he didn't associate it with the middle-aged woman in front of him who was not amazing at the first time.

"Ms. Zhou has something to do with me?" Jiao Enjun asked tentatively.

"I know that you are about to be discharged from the army, how about it, are you interested in returning to the entertainment industry?" Zhou You was also very decisive in doing things, and he expressed his intention to Jiao Enjun in person.

"This ......" all this happened so suddenly, Jiao Enjun didn't have any mental preparation at all, and he didn't know how to make up his mind.

Zhou You called a business card to Jiao Enjun's hand, "This is my communication number, call me when you think about it." (To be continued.) )
