CHAPTER XXXI
*************
After Tang Ying left, Song Yan and Chu Youyuan looked at each other for a long time before they came to a realization:
If you want to mix in Qihuang, you really can't rely on your face and acting skills alone!
A separate open space was set aside on the left side of the hall on the first floor of Qihuang as a leisure area, which provided all kinds of coffee and other drinks and desserts to internal employees for free.
On this day, Song Yan and Chu Youyuan played against each other heartily, and they also came down to rest, and as soon as they sat down, they heard someone ask in a whisper, "It's been another busy day, when will it be released?" β
The two of them turned their heads and saw Tang Ying, who was dressed in casual clothes, waving at them with a smile.
"Sister Tang laughed, it hasn't started filming yet."
Tang Ying said with a smile, "I'm very optimistic about you, you must tell me in advance when it will be released." β
Song Yan and Chu Youyuan nodded hurriedly, "Definitely." β
Although these two days are vacations, Tang Ying has not been idle, and has been making up for the domestic entertainment news during her absence, and naturally saw the popular "Forced Marriage", and couldn't help but secretly rejoice in her previous attitude.
And after watching this film a few times, Tang Ying couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "It's really terrifying!" β
It's terrible that such acting skills appear in a newcomer!
She is not lacking in appearance and acting skills, and Qi Huang's attitude is so distinct, given time, she will definitely be able to call the wind and rain in the entertainment industry, and her move is really right.
As soon as the words fell, I heard another person say hello, "I heard that you are about to shoot a new film, congratulations." β
At this moment, Song Yan and the others noticed that there was a good-looking boy sitting at the small round table opposite Tang Ying.
Zhao Wei, Zhao Wei, who ranked 12th in the past qualifying round.
Zhao Wei is Qi Huang who entered in October last year, it has been more than a year since then, he failed to be on the list that year, and last year he was even more regrettably ranked thirteenth, and this year he is finally on the list, which is not easy.
Speaking of which, Song Yan and Chu Youyuan didn't talk to Zhao Wei seriously, except for the occasional hurried hello in the company, they didn't chat in the real sense.
Artists, always have a good look, even if they are not middle-looking, after specific training, they will create something called "temperament".
Zhao Wei is an actor, of course he is not ugly, on the contrary, he is still good-looking, and his good-looking is a bit too much.
On the day he got the results of the annual ranking competition, Lu Qingyun also commented on Zhao Wei: "If he is a little taller, it would be appropriate to be a model, is this actor, tsk." β
Zhao Weijing is tall, but he is indeed not tall in the entertainment industry, not to mention the model circle where people are rampant.
He is a mixed-race child with a quarter of foreign ancestry, although he has not inherited outstanding height, but his facial features are very three-dimensional, and the sharp edges and corners are a little too excessive, and anyone who looks at it will say "what a fashionable face".
But the problem is that he is an actor, and although he looks good when shooting posters and advertisements, it is a bit of a headache when he puts it on the screen.
First, it is rare for domestic actresses to find such three-dimensional facial features as him, and it is not easy to play; Second, the impact of modernity presented by his overall appearance is too sharp, and the director's limitations in the script and appearance are very large.
Too handsome, too fashionable, too sharp face restricts his acting path from the root, now he is still young, but he can still eat youth, but what about when he gets older?
Zhao Wei is only one year younger than Chu Youyuan, but so far, he has only made a total of three dramas, two TV series and one movie, and the latter is still an opportunity provided by the company after joining Qi Huang.
In the past year, Qi Huang has basically been testing the waters: for Zhao Wei, if he can't successfully embark on the path of an acting actor, then a few years later, he can only fall from the eyes of the public as a meteor.
This kind of actor may be very easy to make money when he is young, and it is also very likely to be popular, but it is too risky for the agency and the shelf life is also very short......
The artists who can be signed by Qi Huang are not fools, obviously Zhao Wei is also vaguely aware of his dilemma, because he works very hard in interpersonal communication, and when he talks about Song Yan and they take over the job, they can't hide their envy.
Song Yan and Chu Youyuan had also heard about his situation, and they were sympathetic, but they really couldn't help much.
The two of them couldn't climb up the pole, for fear of irritating him, so they only vaguely blended over.
Tang Ying was very enthusiastic about Song Yan and had a kind attitude, the conversation between the two was smooth and natural, and she chatted with Chu Youyuan from time to time in the middle......
It's just Zhao Wei, he doesn't know how long he's been sitting here, but Tang Ying doesn't seem to have any intention of talking to him at all, so he becomes more and more embarrassed.
He was struggling with whether to leave when he heard a noise at the entrance.
Everyone looked up, only to see a group of people surrounded by a man with a huge figure like a moon.
Because the weather is still relatively cold, there is no shortage of scarves, masks and sunglasses, and a simple black trench coat sets off long legs and broad shoulders.
There was silence in the lounge area for a while, and then there was a commotion, and many female staff members came over giggling.
Song Yan only felt that he was a little familiar, and he was pondering the name, so he heard Chu Youyuan next to him remind him softly, "Cha Lion." β
It turned out to be him!
In recent years, he has competed with Tang Ying for the throne in January, and after three years of consecutive wins, he has lost two in a row!
Although Cha Liang has been in February in the past two years, when it comes to his status and achievements in the circle, Tang Ying really can't compare to him.
In the past three years, Mr. Cha has been mixed in the international film and television industry, and he would rather lack than abuse, although the number of works is not as good as Tang Ying, but the quality of each one is excellent, and he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the International Golden Flower Film Festival just past.
Many people are privately rumored that he may withdraw from Qi Huang's internal qualifying competition in a few years.
As soon as he entered the hall, Chalion took off his sunglasses and mask, and then raised a chuckle with a little playfulness, "I'm back!" β
"Ahhh
"Brother Cha, we have all watched your new film, it is really getting more and more handsome!"
"Welcome home, Brother Cha, we miss you to death!"
A kind of big girl and little daughter-in-law screamed one after another, jumping and jumping to say hello to him, and got out of the scene of a fan meeting.
Song Yan was stunned, and subconsciously glanced at Chu Youyuan, and couldn't help but laugh.
I've heard for a long time that Chalion is very approachable, and it's really better to hear than to see, but today, how can he be approachable......
After a while, Cha Lion didn't know what to say to the little girl at the front desk, which caused people's faces to turn red, and a group of girls around him held their faces and dragged their long voices~
Chalion was very comfortable dealing with the enthusiastic supporters, and his eyes lit up as he glanced over the lounge.
He bowed his head and said a few words to everyone, and then walked quickly to this side, waving his hand as he walked, "Hi~!" β
Zhao Wei, who was embarrassed, seemed to see the light, stood up with a swish, and bowed excitedly to say hello, "Hello Brother Cha!" β
Tang Ying rolled her eyes unabashedly, "Hmph." β
Zhao Wei's face turned red and looked over curtly.
Tang Ying was stunned, and immediately waved at him after coming back to her senses, chuckling, "It's not about you, just sit down." β
Charion shrugged, pulled over a chair and sat down, and beckoned to the bar girl very skillfully, "Have a cup of black coffee." β
The little sister sighed sweetly, and asked while grinding coffee beans, "Double milk?" β
Cha Lion just nodded, but heard Tang Ying say in a weird way, "What kind of milk do you add to black coffee?" Sentimental. β
"Are you a newcomer to Qihuang this year?" Cha Lion was talking to Zhao Wei, and before he could hold back the second sentence, he was speechless, so he had to turn his head and say to Tang Ying, "Grandma, we're almost done, where did I offend you?" Sending a text message to congratulate you on winning the championship during the Chinese New Year was scolded, and now you will be stabbed again......"
Tang Ying glared at her and raised her eyebrows, "I can't stand Mr. Cha's congratulations, and the waves that have crossed the ocean for the New Year." β
The style of Europeans and Americans is more bold, and it is the crew's New Year's party at the end of the year, and it is inevitable that the fun will be a little crazy......
Tang Ying's sarcasm was too straightforward and scathing, and Song Yan, who was trying to reduce her sense of existence, couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing, causing several eyes to sweep over to this side.
"I'm sorry!"
Cha Lion looked at her, then at Chu Youyuan, and asked with a smile, "You are also newcomers?" As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Wei again, "They all came last year?" β
Zhao Wei, who had been hanging for a long time, finally seized the opportunity to speak, and corrected in a low voice, "I came in at the end of the year before last." β
"Oh," Chalion scratched his forehead and coughed dryly, "I'm not often in the country, I'm sorry for the confusion." β
Zhao Wei hurriedly waved his hand, "It's okay, it's okay." β
Chalion seemed to be very fond of teasing the little girl, and when the waitress came to deliver coffee, he smiled so much that it made their faces red.
After the girl left, he chatted with Song Yan very familiarly, "Song Yan Miss Song, right?" When you enter Qihuang, you are a family, don't be so restrained, just call me Brother Cha in the future, and you can tell me about any difficulties in life and work. β
In addition to a variety of fancy promotional posters, there are also three electronic scrolling screens in Qihuang Hall, the middle one is also the largest, specially used to put the photos of the most popular artists this month, the one on the left scrolls to play the latest entertainment news at home and abroad, and the one on the right is the photo of the qualifying members of the year that changes in order, the one with the name.
After Chalion sat down, the screen on the right had already scrolled twice, and he finally sat the three newcomers in front of him.
Song Yan naturally wanted to have a good relationship with him, but in just a few minutes, she was already keenly aware of what might be the past between Charion and Tang Ying......
If the two really had such a period of time, or if they are still disconnected now, and they are close to Charion in the open, wouldn't they offend Tang Ying?
Thinking like this, she suddenly felt like she was on pins and needles, and Cheng DΓΉ, who was uncomfortable, was about to catch up with Zhao Wei.
At the critical moment, Chu Youyuan suddenly spoke, "Sister Tang, Brother Cha, I'm sorry, Song Yan and I will meet with the screenwriter in a few minutes." β
Before Tang Ying could speak, Cha Lion had already said with regret on his face, "Oh, I left so soon, I won't tell you, I really hit it off with you at first sight......"
Before the words fell, Tang Ying had already snorted heavily, looking at him in the eyes as if he could throw a blade.
If it was still a guess just now, then now Song Yan is 100% sure that these two people have a leg!
So she immediately stood up without hesitation, "I'm really sorry, Sister Tang, look?" β
Tang Ying was not angry with them, her tone and eyes were still very gentle, "Work is important, don't delay the business." β
Song Yan suddenly felt like an amnesty, grabbed the script on the table, and left.
At this time, Zhao Wei also felt that something was wrong, Song Yan and Chu Youyuan had just left, and he was also excited, saying goodbye without saying a word, leaving Cha Lion and Tang Ying to come and go.
"Oh, you don't want to be like this, it's just paparazzi scribbling, look at you, it's serious."
"Hehe, where do I dare, you can do whatever you like, where do I have a bile tube?"
"I'm not"
"No, I see you're a big wave! After coming back, I still fly with my eyes, sue you, don't come to this set, everyone is a good boy, don't make some nonsense! β
After going out in one breath, Song Yan and Chu Youyuan, you look at me, I look at you, and they all laughed.
*************
A few days later, Song Yan went to the party at the invitation of Wang Xiuli.
Wang Xiuli's connections are not covered, and the people present are basically not very well-known, because most of them are standing behind the scenes, and they all hold great power without exception. To put it bluntly, if you can get the favor of everyone present, even if you sleep in the dark with your feet on, there will be no shortage of acting.
Song Yan was immediately terrified, if it weren't for a special social class in Qi Huang's training course, she would have to make a fool of herself.
Because she was personally invited by Wang Xiuli, everyone was quite polite to her, and they didn't snub her after introducing each other.
Wang Xiuli took her hand and said to everyone without hesitation, "See, what a good girl, I'm not exaggerating, right?" β
Everyone laughed, and a gray-haired half-old man joked with her, "You're almost there, we're all so old, don't scare people." β
Wang Xiuli made a gesture to hit him, and laughed again, "Don't talk nonsense, Xiao Song is a down-to-earth child, and he doesn't like to be showy the most." By the way, she is different from those frizzy children now, she still likes to listen to operas, and she is very good at classical dancing. Hey, you watched "Forced Marriage" a few days ago, and the acting is not bad, right? β
Speaking of which, it can be regarded as paving the way for Song Yan in a bright way, not to mention how shocked Song Yan was, even everyone present was a little surprised.
People are old, and they are already in this position, there is really nothing to fight for, the picture is to be able to pass on the art, so occasionally who looks at which junior is pleasing to the eye, has a future, and it is not uncommon to reach out and promote it.
And the most surprising thing is that Wang Xiuli and Song Yan have cooperated once, and she is willing to do this?
Before the words fell, the half-old man who had just quarreled with her smiled again, pointed at her and said to everyone, "Listen, this is to buy the ham!" β
Wang Xiuli pays great attention to health care and is also very good at eating, and a while ago she showed off the ham given to her by Song Yan everywhere, but today she was teased.
Everyone has been old friends for more than ten or decades, and Wang Xiuli was not annoyed, and immediately followed his words and counterattacked, "Have you seen it, this is because I don't want to keep good things for him." β
The group laughed again, and the most active half-old man just now looked at Song Yan a few more times, as if he was thinking about something, but he didn't say anything until the end of the party.
The party passed like this, and Song Yan didn't make any noise to the outside world, but he also vaguely felt that Qi Huang's senior management was more enthusiastic and polite to him.
Lu Qingyun also secretly told her in private, "See, if you don't say that you don't fight for turnips, everyone in the world is snobbish, and Qi Huang is still like this inside, let alone outside." β
After finishing speaking, seeing that Song Yan was speechless for a long time, Lu Qingyun patted her shoulder very clearly, "You have benefited a lot, right?" β
"No," Song Yan raised his head, his expression a little complicated and embarrassed, "What, shouldn't it be [non-steamed steamed buns fighting for breath]?" β
When did it become associated with radish?
Lu Qingyun: "......"
Madan, it's a little embarrassing.
