Chapter 61 Calling Dad
When Lu Yuqi got home, he told Shang Yi that he had passed the second audition and successfully slapped Ran Ran in the face. Lu Yuqi didn't know that her smug look made her look like a proud little rooster in Shang Yi's eyes, just about to crow.
"So when will you join the group?"
"I should be joining the crew in two days, and a lot of the scenes this time are overseas. You won't be able to see me for a long time."
"Will it take a long time to shoot?" Normally, it only takes two to three months to shoot, especially for Hou Ye's commercial films, which should be very quick.
"I don't know. It will take at least three months."
"After not seeing me for three months, you must have missed me a lot!"
"Then will you give me the right to visit the set?"
"Woo... I still have the privilege to visit the set, and I can still keep my beautiful girl in my house~" The young couple continued to be affectionate with each other.
The next day, Shang Yi came to the company and asked Assistant Qi to contact Hou Ye for film investment. With the previous experience, Assistant Qi handled the matter very quickly this time. The last time Shang Yi invested in Shang Kun's movie, he made a lot of money in the end, and all the money was his. This made Assistant Qi admire him very much. The boss is a love-minded person but he never stops making money! The investment prediction is still so accurate! Such a profit! I also think Lu Yuqi is a lucky charm for her husband!
Shang Yi did not treat Assistant Qi badly and gave him a generous red envelope. Although it was called a red envelope, it was directly transferred to the card. This was comparable to his year-end bonus, which gave him great motivation! Faced with this investment, Assistant Qi is naturally more confident!
Hou Ye, who received the investment, couldn't help but sigh: No wonder Shang Kun said that Lu Yuqi is a little lucky. Just as this one left, another big investment came in. Although his movie has no shortage of investors, there are still only a few who are willing to invest so much money, so he must build good relationships!
Assistant Qi’s identity as an angel investor has also spread within the circle. He transfers money quickly, does little work, and always arranges a big meal for the crew! Although Hou Ye's crew was abroad this time, the dinner arranged by the angel investors was authentic Chinese food, and all the dishes and seasonings were directly airlifted from China! Not to mention how much money was spent and how much work was put into it, just the deliciousness of it made the entire crew, who were almost vomiting from eating Western food for more than a month, want to call him daddy!
A Chinese meal caused the entire crew to enter a frantic rush mode, speeding up but maintaining the same quality, just to finish work early and return home!
My own Chinese stomach is already starting to build
The rebellion!
Thanks to the efforts of the entire crew, the filming was completed more than half a month earlier than expected. Everyone was in high spirits and shopping all day, and the next day they were all looking forward to flying back to China!
"I want to eat hot pot when I get back! Spicy hot pot!"
“I want to eat skewers!”
“I want to eat barbecue!”
"Anything is fine. I've had enough of white people's food."
"That's right, it tastes bland and is high in calories!"
Lu Yuqi, who was also waiting to return home, missed his "Jiao" very much. This time Shang Yi did not have time to visit him due to work reasons. Lu Yuqi now fully understood the meaning of being eager to go home.
But things often go against one's wishes. Lu Yuqi was very surprised when he opened the door of the hotel room and found that it was his agent Liu Jiahe!
"Brother Liu, why are you here?"
"I have work to tell you, come inside first."
"oh."
"I got a movie audition."
"Are you in such a hurry? You can't even wait until I return home? You even rushed over to tell me."
"Please listen to me first. This movie is directed by Kipling Carter. You should know the name of the movie."
"The Adventures of Jody!" Lu Yuqi and Liu Jiahe said the movie title at the same time.
"Oh my god! They actually invited me! Hahahahaha."
It's no wonder Lu Yuqi is so happy. Although the name of "The Adventures of Jody" sounds ordinary, it is a high-grossing Western magic movie. The first part tells the story of Jody accidentally arriving in the Western magic world. It is the prophecy of the magic world that will unify
The wise man of the continent finally unified the human continent with the help of his friends and gained the support of the elves, orcs and half-orcs. The story is a bit childish, but the special effects are very realistic. It caused a global sensation when it was released and still tops the box office charts today.
"Why did they invite me to audition? What role? I remember that at the end of the first film, it said that the battle was still going on, so they must be the characters they will encounter in the second film. The main characters will not change, right?"
"Yes, you are indeed a character from the second part. Thank you for your superior looks."
"Um?"
"I received news that you are auditioning for an elf. Because in the first movie, it was mentioned that elves are a very handsome race, so the male elf we are looking for this time must have a look comparable to Pearl."
“So cast a wide net!”
"Yes, this is an opportunity. You need to give it a try whether you succeed or not."
"Are you sure they will cast an Oriental actor to play the elf?"
"Since you've been invited to audition, I don't think you'll refuse it."
"When is the audition?"
"The day after tomorrow, we both need to go to the audition city, so you should have a good rest."
"good."
This time, the audition location for the second season of The Adventures of Jody can be said to have gathered all kinds of handsome guys of all skin colors. There are not only handsome guys from Europe and America, but also from Japan and South Korea, and there are also many Chinese Americans.
Lu Yuqi's appearance attracted everyone's vigilance.
"Oh my god, another handsome boy!"
"Korean? Or Japanese?"
"I can't tell at all. I feel like I can knock this little guy down with just one punch!"
"Oh~Sorpo, you are so rude."
Lu Yuqi looked in the direction of the voice and saw Thorpo, the blond and muscular man who said he could knock him down with one punch. When his eyes met Lu Yuqi's, he raised his arms to show his bulging muscles to Lu Yuqi.
Lu Yuqi had a blank expression on her face, and was speechless inside: Didn’t we choose a male elf? Isn’t elf a synonym for elegance? What is this muscular guy thinking? Lu Yuqi found that there are quite a few guys with muscles all over their bodies!
Soon the director came over with Elena, the actress who played the female elf Pearl, and started the audition.
The first requirement of the audition is that every male actor who comes to audition must stand next to Elena one by one to see if the two are a match.
"Isn't the official partner of the female elf the male lead? What's the point of seeing if they are a good match?" Not only Lu Yuqi had this doubt, but other male actors who auditioned were also full of doubts.
Elena took off her shoes and stood barefoot in the middle.
The male actors waiting for audition came forward one by one. Elena is not short, about 176cm tall barefoot.
Faced with barefoot Elena, everyone didn't know what to do.
"According to the order, male actors, please take off your shoes and stand next to Elena."
When they were asked to take off their shoes, many male actors looked embarrassed.
Wow, this move is really cruel! Lu Yuqi sighed inwardly!
