Hollywood's Whimsical Life

Returning to 2011, life's path began to diverge from the moment he filled out his college application.

Discovering he had actually enrolled in a performance major and seeing familiar face...

Chapter 822: Support

Yuekai Entertainment.

"Okay, I understand. Let's set a time and complete the signing as soon as possible. Thank you very much."

Jia Shikai hung up the phone and paced back and forth in the office, feeling very happy.

"I didn't expect Wang Churan to be so capable and actually hook up with Gu Wei, this golden thigh.

In this case, the company will have to speed up the pace of promoting her, and it would be best if she could get sufficient exposure in a short period of time through Gu Wei's drama, so that she can become an instant hit."

After thinking for a while, he sat back in his boss chair, opened the drawer of his desk, and took out a stack of documents.

"With the offer from 'Wind Chaser,' Wang Churan is considered a rising star, which makes it a good opportunity to secure the female lead role in this Tengxun drama."

Jia Shikai took a red pen and circled and drew on the documents.

“And this invitation.

Tengxun wants to promote their own female artists, so Yang Yang can make some concessions on the ranking, and then Wang Churan’s role will be almost certain to win.”

After thinking for a while and coming up with a comprehensive plan, Jia Shikai nodded.

"I have to inconvenience Yang Yang. As the boss, it's only right that he makes some contribution to the company."

Thinking of this, he picked up the phone and called Sun Zhonghuai, the CEO of Tengxun Video.

"Hello, Mr. Sun, I'm Xiao Jia from Yuekai.

Didn't it disturb your work?

I have something I want to discuss with you, it's about two dramas produced by Tencent."

In the afternoon, Wang Churan returned to the company after a busy day at work. She was told that the boss was looking for her, so she hurried to the general manager's office.

"Boss Jia, are you looking for me?"

Jia Shikai, who was looking at the documents in his hand behind the desk, raised his head and saw Wang Churan knocking on the door and came in with a gentle smile on his face.

"Chu Ran is back, come and sit down.

Are you tired today?"

Wang Churan was a little confused by his boss's attitude.

In her impression, President Jia had only shown such a gentle and enthusiastic attitude to the company's top man Yang Yang and top woman Song Qian. An 18th-tier artist like her would definitely not receive such treatment.

"Not tired, I only had one magazine shoot today, and it went smoothly from start to finish. I finished all the shoots in about half a day."

Jia Shikai nodded: "Yes, with your appearance, the effect of magazine blockbusters will definitely be great!

If I have the chance later, I will help you contact top fashion magazines like Bazaar, ELLE and Vogue. There is no need to appear in small magazines anymore."

"Thank you, Mr. Jia. I will definitely try my best to shoot it well~"

Wang Churan was a little flattered.

Jia Shikai continued with an unchanged smile, "Do you remember the audition for the cast of [Storm Chaser] a while ago?

I just received a notice from them that you passed the audition and you have been officially cast as the heroine "Chen Jinzhen" in "The Wind Chaser".

The actor contract will be signed in the next few days."

His words were like a stone thrown into a lake, instantly creating ripples in Wang Churan's heart.

Her eyes suddenly widened, filled with surprise and joy, and her mouth unconsciously opened slightly.

"Uh, really?"

"How could I joke about something like this?"

"Thank you to the company, thank you to President Jia!"

Seeing Wang Churan's surprised expression, Jia Shikai nodded slightly.

"Don't thank me, you got this role entirely on your own, the company didn't do much.

Of the three actors who auditioned for this drama, the other two, besides you, are artists under [Wei Ming Tian Xia], and I was surprised that you got the role.

As Jia Shikai looked at Wang Churan's pretty face, he couldn't help but sigh: "

I thought I just created an opportunity for you, but I didn't expect you to actually seize it.

Last year, the supporting actress in "Joy of Life 2" was just a good opportunity, but this time, the female lead in "The Wind Chaser" is already the top resource in the domestic entertainment industry!

It seems that Mr. Gu really likes you."

Wang Churan smiled broadly, "Thanks to President Jia for giving me the opportunity.

Wei Ge is a better person.”

Jia Shikai raised his hand and said, "I won't ask about the matter between you and Mr. Gu. You can decide for yourself what to do in the future. I believe you are a smart person.

Now that you have obtained the resources of [Wind Chaser], the company will also increase its investment in you.

I have negotiated with Tencent Video. They are currently preparing a modern idol drama adapted from a well-known novel, called "I Heard You Like Me", and you will play the female lead "Ruan Liuzheng".

It just so happens that this drama will be filmed in the first half of the year, and [The Wind Chaser] will be filmed in the second half of the year, so nothing will be delayed."

"Thank you, President Jia!" Wang Churan said happily when she heard that she was the heroine of another TV series and it was a Tengxun drama.

Since she entered the industry in 2017, she has filmed six or seven TV series, all of which were supporting roles. Some were second female roles, and some were third or fourth female roles. Now she has taken on two leading roles, both of which are popular dramas. All the good news has come at once.

However, she also knew that the company was trying to get her the female lead role probably because she had already gotten the female lead in "The Wind Chaser", and everyone liked to add icing on the cake.

Wang Churan stayed in the office for a while. Jia Shikai talked to her about some things in work and life, and asked her to raise any questions as soon as possible. She would be the company's main focus in the next one or two years.

"Boss Jia, I'll leave if there's nothing else~"

After Wang Churan finished talking with Jia Shikai, he stood up and walked out of the office. When he opened the door, someone was about to come in.

"Brother Yang~" Wang Churan greeted politely.

Yang Yang glanced at her, nodded, said nothing, and walked straight into the office.

Compared with Wang Churan, Yang Yang was very casual after entering the door. He sat on the sofa on the side with his legs crossed.

"What's the matter that's urgent for you to find me?"

Jia Shikai stood up and sat opposite him with a smile, then took out a notebook and placed it in front of Yang Yang.

"I've already given you the script from Teng Xun, an S-rated historical romance drama."

Yang Yang picked up the script, and on the cover were written four big characters: [Conquer the World].

Jia Shikai continued, "The drama is directed by Yin Tao, and the script is based on the best-selling novel of the same name. It has the potential to be a huge hit."

Yin Tao is a well-known costume drama director in the industry. "The Glory of Tang Dynasty", "Legend of the White Snake", "Under the Power" and "Liu Li" are all dramas directed by him.

Although Yang Yang had never worked with him, he had heard of his name.

"It's indeed a good opportunity. It seems that it was the right move to sign the film and television contract with Tencent Video." Yang Yang casually opened the script and took a look.

“There’s just one thing I need to tell you in advance.

The female lead of this drama has been confirmed to be newcomer Zhao Lusi.

This girl is highly regarded by Teng Xun, and they want to use your fame to promote her, so that you two will have equal roles when the drama is being promoted."

Hearing this, Yang Yang frowned.

"I'm tied with Zhao Lusi?

What does Tencent think?

I remember she became famous last year with the web drama "The Rumored Chen Qianqian." She was a supporting actress in Dilraba Dilmurat's "The Long Ballad" with Wu Lei, and now she's getting an equal role with me?

Jia Shikai had anticipated Yang Yang's reaction, and he said calmly, "The Long Ballad will be aired this month, and if nothing unexpected happens, Zhao Lusi's popularity will rise to a new level.

Tengxun attaches great importance to her.

If you want to get this good project, you naturally have to accept the corresponding conditions. You are just helping her to improve her status, not being suppressed by her.

Besides, she is an actress and you are an actor, so there is no competition between them. Doing a favor will benefit both of you."

Yang Yang looked at Jia Shikai with a smile on his face and opened his mouth, but in the end he said nothing.

He was a little reluctant, but his agent had already taken over the project.

And what the other party said makes sense.

Wang Churan was still excited when he came out of the office.

After calming down, she thought about it, took out her cell phone, and after careful consideration, sent a message of thanks to Gu Wei.

It took a long time before Gu Wei's reply came.

The main content was to let her prepare well, not feel any burden, and strive to have a good performance during the filming of "Storm Chaser".

Wang Churan read it back and forth twice, wondering whether he should call the other party. He hesitated for a long time but didn't dial the number.

"Whatever it is, let's talk about it when we meet~

Wang Churan, you have to be a good and obedient girl. This situation is the best outcome."

[Changjin Lake] crew.

Gu Wei and Wu Jing changed their clothes after the show.

"Are you going back to the hotel today?"

“Yes, I’ve been sleeping in an RV these days. Although it has all the necessary facilities, it’s still not as comfortable as a hotel.

It just so happens that there are no night scenes these two days, so I'll go back and have a good rest.

What about you, Brother Jing? Aren’t you going to leave?"

Wu Jing shook his head: "I can just make do in the RV for a while.

I have been working on the script of "My Fathers and I" these past few days. After the show, I can get in the car and continue working, which saves time."

"You're such a workaholic!"

Wu Jing smiled bitterly: "There's nothing I can do, the crew over there is already preparing, and I have to join the crew seamlessly after filming "Changjin Lake".

Time is short and the task is heavy. I am both an actor and a director this time, so I can only work harder now and try to sort out [Riding the Wind] clearly on the set."

The unit directed by Wu Jing in "My Fathers and Me" is called "Ride the Wind", and he had talked about it with Gu Wei before.

At this point, Wu Jing couldn't help but ask Gu Wei again, "Are you really not considering playing "Lu Chengfeng"?

This role really suits you."

Gu Wei quickly waved his hands after hearing this: "I told you before, I really can't get away.

After "The Battle at Lake Changjin" is over, you will be filming "The Wind Rises", and I have also agreed to film a drama for Mr. Hou from "Noon Sunshine" .

I don't have the ability to clone myself, so how can I possibly take care of both?"

Wu Jing opened his mouth and wanted to say that you can overlap with other roles, but he didn't say it in the end.

After all, he is a professional actor and is very opposed to the practice of actors overlapping roles.

"It's okay if you don't act. Please give me the license for the song 'As Wish' that you sang at the Spring Festival Gala. I feel that the style and emotion are very compatible with 'My Fathers and I'. It can be used as the theme song."

Gu Wei smiled and said, "No problem, it's a small matter. I can even give you the license for free."

"It doesn't have to be free, I'm just the director, all the costs related to the film will naturally be paid by China Film Group."

After separating from Wu Jing, Gu Wei took a car from the filming location back to his hotel.

The reason I just mentioned was only one reason why he didn't live in the RV. Another reason was that Clara came to visit him today.

The beautiful woman was already waiting for him in the hotel, so Gu Wei naturally wouldn't stay on the set any longer.

"Oppa, you're back~"

When I opened the hotel door, Clara came over after hearing the noise, speaking somewhat broken Chinese.

"Can you speak Chinese now?"

Gu Wei asked in surprise.

"A little bit"

Clara stretched out her hand and made a gesture that all Korean men hated, blinking her big eyes and replied in a cute way.

Although her expression looks cute, her figure is not cute at all.

I don’t know if it was intentional, but Clara was wearing a thin outfit similar to yoga clothes in the room. The top was a belly-exposing tube top that half covered her towering bust, and the bottomless cleavage was vaguely visible.

She has a slender waist, a flat belly, and a belly button decorated with water drop makeup, which makes her look very cute.

She wore thin tights on her lower body, and her plump buttocks were exaggeratedly curved, connected to a pair of round and slender legs, and her whole body formed a huge S shape.

Her figure is even more exaggerated than Da Mimi's, showing the "sexy" side of women to the extreme.

"Are you exercising in your room?"

Clara was a little confused after hearing Gu Wei's words. It was only after he repeated them that she understood.

"I arrived at noon, nothing to do, so I did some yoga in the room."

She initially tried to speak in Chinese, but when she realized she couldn't, she reverted to Korean.

Gu Wei also understood that the other party must have just started learning Chinese and only knew a few sentences.

The two people's subsequent communication returned to Korean.

"Have you had dinner yet?"

"Not yet, waiting for Oppa to come together~"

"Change your clothes and I'll take you out for dinner. There's a restaurant nearby that's really good."

Not long after, Gu Wei took Clara, who had changed her clothes, out to eat.

It was late, and the two of them were wrapped up tightly, so they didn't have to worry about being recognized.

It was already late when they returned to the hotel room after having a good meal and a drink. After washing up, Clara actively launched the offensive.

Gu Wei naturally enjoyed her somewhat flattering service.

Most of the beauties in the entertainment industry are very thin, and there are few sexy beauties like Clara.

Moreover, she loves sports and has excellent physical strength. At the beginning, she even tied with Gu Wei.

However, as time went on, Clara inevitably fell into defeat.

At midnight, everything is quiet.

Clara lay on the big bed in the bedroom, a layer of fine sweat beads floating on her smooth and delicate skin, and her upper body trembled slightly with her violent breathing, which showed how intense the previous exercise was.

"Is Oppa tired from filming recently?"

After regaining some strength, she looked up at the man who had complete control over her in every way.

"It's not bad. We're filming a war movie right now, so it's relatively hard."

Gu Wei gently stroked the other person's hair.

"The war scenes are so amazing!" Clara exclaimed.

Gu Wei smiled and said, "Come to think of it, the movie I'm making now is related to your country.

You should know about the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea, that’s the war I filmed.”

“Um, I’ve learned a little bit.

It was a very brutal war, and China was very powerful, fighting against the whole world on its own."

"As a Korean, wouldn't you feel uncomfortable talking about this war? As far as I know, the Korean army suffered the most casualties back then."

Clara shook her head.

“I am of Korean descent, not Korean.

I am British, born in Switzerland, and went to school in the US."

Gu Wei understood that although Clara had Korean ancestry, she never considered herself Korean because of her upbringing.

"How long are you going to stay here?"

"If Oppa is not busy, I can stay for a while. If he is busy filming and can't spare the time, I won't bother you too much."

Gu Wei smiled: "So good~"
