Chapter 410 Introduction
But even though Ji Chuhe said it so confidently, Hu Ye was still skeptical about Chen Li's acting skills.
"Okay, then I'd like to see if it's as spiritual as you say."
As he was speaking, Chen Li finished chatting with fans and was finally escorted in by bodyguards.
Young actors are all following the trends in the entertainment industry in real time. Because of the broadcast of "The Fate of the Phoenix", Chen Li suddenly became a name in the circle, so these young actors all know Chen Li.
As soon as she showed up, some proactive people stood up and greeted her.
After all, having experienced two film crews, although Chen Li has a quiet and introverted personality, she has long learned how to communicate with new friends in the crew.
"I watched Destiny for the Phoenix, and I thought you acted really well."
"You're so pretty in person, with such a small face."
"I like making friends with beautiful women. Let's add each other on WeChat!"
Faced with everyone's enthusiasm, Chen Li responded slowly and methodically one by one, and in a short while she added several new WeChat friends.
"Ali!"
At this time, Ji Chuhe smiled and waved at her.
"Sister Chuhe!"
Finally, there was someone she was familiar with. Chen Li felt much more at ease and quickly walked over to greet him: "Sister Kuan told me that you might not come today. Don't you have an endorsement event to attend?"
"The event has been postponed. Another international spokesperson's flight was delayed and they have to reschedule. Today just happens to be free." Ji Chuhe explained softly, then pulled her over and whispered, "Go greet the seniors before joining the group. I'll take you to meet them."
Chen Li nodded obediently upon hearing this, and let Ji Chuhe pull her in front of Hu Ye first.
Hu Ye is a recognized powerful actor. He has created countless classic screen images in his more than 30 years in the industry. Although he has long passed his heyday in middle age, his status and influence in the circle remain.
"Ali, this is Teacher Hu Ye. You should be familiar with him, right?" Ji Chuhe introduced.
Chen Li actually admires the strong in her heart. The more capable a person is, the more she respects him from the bottom of her heart.
Meeting Hu Ye in real life for the first time, Chen Li nodded with some excitement, unable to conceal it. "Of course, hello, Teacher Hu Ye. My name is Chen Li, and I'm a sophomore at Longcheng Film Academy. I particularly like the dramas you act in, and I'm very excited and honored to be able to work with you."
After saying that, he bowed politely.
Hu Ye was originally sitting on a chair, but he slowly stood up when he saw this. He looked closer and found that the little girl Chen Li did have a good appearance and temperament, but she was too well-behaved.
The character in the play is a rebellious girl, which has nothing to do with Shen Li's image. Hu Ye even has doubts about whether she can interpret the role well.
Hu Ye had heard Chen Li's words many times. Every junior would say the same thing when they met him. In fact, they knew nothing about the classic works he had performed in his early years and were just being polite.
But he didn't show any displeasure, nor did he embarrass her by asking directly, "Which of my plays have you seen?" He just said meaningfully, "A little girl of your age, have you seen my plays? Those were decades ago. How old were you then..."
The implication is actually disbelief.
However, Chen Li said seriously, "Teacher, I have been watching your plays since I was very young. Although I was very young at that time, I couldn't understand the core of many profound characters. But as I got older, I gradually understood them. Especially the 1998 drama "Nanyang Old Stories" you starred in. I watched it over and over again. You played Kong Ergou in it so passionately and brilliantly that when I was a child, I always thought your name was Kong Ergou and couldn't remember your real name."
The greatest compliment to an actor is that people only remember his role and forget his name.
Most importantly, "Old Things in Nanyang" is a movie that is rarely re-screened on TV, and few young people today know about it.
So when Chen Li said this, Hu Ye's expression changed significantly: "Have you seen "Nanyang Old Stories"? You weren't born when this movie was released, right?"
Chen Li nodded. "Yes, but didn't the movie channel later come up with a list of the top 100 Chinese films from the 1990s to the present? Whenever I have time, I'll pick one out and watch it. I remember it very clearly, 'Old Things in Nanyang' ranked 24th!"
"Oh, you remember all this?" Hu Ye's face showed joy, and his smile became genuine.
Seeing that Chen Li's two or three words had obviously changed Teacher Hu Ye's attitude, Ji Chuhe on the side couldn't help but smile.
The most useful weapon of a person is still "sincerity", and this is the feeling Chen Li gives people.
She didn't do her homework because she knew she was going to meet Hu Ye, but she had actually seen his works and expressed her admiration and respect for him.
Hu Ye has been in the circle for so many years, and he has seen more ghosts than Chen Li has seen. If Chen Li tries to be hypocritical in front of him, how could he not see it?
Therefore, Hu Ye's attitude towards Chen Li changed a little at the moment, but it did not completely dispel his doubts about Chen Li's acting skills.
I can only say that my first impression is very good. At least he is much more down-to-earth and sincere than most young actors.
After greeting Hu Ye, Ji Chuhe took Chen Li to greet several senior actors she was familiar with, most of whom were senior actors who had played supporting roles for many years.
Many people have played many roles, but they are not well-known. The audience only knows their faces but cannot call out their real names.
But Chen Li can, as long as she has seen the other person's play and the other person performs well, she can call out the other person's name.
"Chen Li, this is Teacher Lu Qiang."
Finally, Ji Chuhe brought Chen Li to the most senior veteran actor in the crew, Mr. Lu Qiang, to introduce her to her.
Lu Qiang holds a very important position in the circle, and even Hu Ye has to show respect to him when he meets him.
"Hello, Teacher Lu Qiang, I am Chen Li." Chen Li greeted as usual.
"Hello, hello." Teacher Lu Qiang had a kind smile on his face. He stretched out his hands to hold Chen Li's hands and said, "Chen Li, right? What a nice name. You are as beautiful as Chu He."
He was nearly sixty years old, almost the same age as Shen Li's grandfather, so when he praised her beauty, Shen Li just smiled modestly.
"Look at your young actors nowadays. They are all so good-looking. No wonder they are so popular."
Before Chen Li could respond, two more people suddenly came over. A male agent brought an actress to greet Lu Qiang. "Teacher Lu Qiang, this is our company's new actress Haohao. It's her first time on such a large team, so she's quite unfamiliar with the team. I'd appreciate your guidance."
"Hello, Teacher Lu Qiang. My name is Liu Hao. You can just call me Hao Hao."
As Liu Hao spoke, he reached out and grabbed the other person's hands that were still holding Chen Li!
