"I'm sorry, I'll probably be busy with some events related to my previous film, so I can't find the time."
Chu Xinzhu politely declined.
Unexpectedly, the other party was quite persistent this time. After hearing this, they didn't hang up but instead spoke up:
"Miss Chu, the third female lead has quite a lot of screen time in our drama. We hope you will seriously consider it."
By the way, what was the name of your last movie? If you're not very famous, I think it's okay to turn down events.
Upon hearing this, Chu Xinzhu's lips instantly curled into a smile.
She took a deep breath and said with a mix of pride and self-satisfaction:
"I guess I can't turn it down. My last movie role was as the female lead in 'Charlotte's Depression'."
As for whether this movie is famous or not, I can't say for sure, because its opening day box office was over 20 million!
hiss!
The woman speaking across from me visibly took a breath, and after a moment, her tone became warmer:
"Miss Chu, so you're the one who played the lead role of 'Ma Dongmei' in Xia Luote's depressed story. Congratulations!"
I heard your movie was the number one box office hit nationwide for three days! That's really amazing.
"Thanks!"
Chu Xinzhu suppressed her inner joy and expressed her gratitude with some restraint.
The woman opposite continued:
"Miss Chu, we didn't know your specific situation before, we didn't expect you to have such acting experience."
"I'll immediately speak to the director and ask if you would consider playing the female lead in the film."
Chu Xinzhu smiled and said:
"First of all, thank you for the invitation from your production team, but I have not considered it at the moment."
As you know, Charlotte has just become very angry and frustrated, so there will definitely be a lot of things to deal with next, so…”
"Understood, understood, Miss Chu. If you are interested, please remember to contact me again."
The woman on the other end of the line hung up the phone with a sigh of regret.
As for Chu Xinzhu's smile, it was already impossible to hide, and it was getting brighter and brighter.
"I'm going to be famous!"
Finally, she shouted out the same line that Xu Lu had shouted in the movie.
...
Just like Chu Hsin-chu.
The main actors who starred in 'Charlotte's Depression' were all incredibly excited at this moment.
Previously, they hadn't taken their experience of participating in this movie too seriously.
Unexpectedly, the movie became a hit so suddenly that the actors also became famous overnight.
Putting aside other things.
Their future film salaries alone will increase tenfold or even a hundredfold.
Just look at the difference in how those people from the film crew treated Chu Xinzhu before and after, and you'll know a lot.
At first, the other party only offered a supporting role, and their tone was somewhat forceful.
When Chu Hsin-chu mentioned attending an event for her previous film, the other party suggested that she simply decline the offer.
However, after learning that Chu Hsin-chu's previous film had grossed 25 million on its opening day.
The other party was even willing to offer her the lead role, just hoping she would consider it.
However, Chu Xinzhu wasn't stupid; at this point, she would absolutely not agree to any conditions casually.
The movie "Fall in Depression" has just been released and is only just beginning to gain recognition.
They have not yet reached their full potential.
With a box office of 25 million on the first day, the total box office is estimated to be approaching 400 million.
As the leading actress and female lead in a film that grossed 400 million yuan, Chu Xinzhu felt that she should have a wider range of choices.
"Of course, if Mr. Xu still wants me, I still hope to act in movies with him!"
Chu Xinzhu thought to himself.
She knows that everything she has today is only 5% due to her own efforts; the other 95% is all thanks to that Mr. Xu.
...
"What?! The movie grossed 25 million! That's great, that's great! I'm going to post about it right away!"
The assistant, who had just gone to the movies and had bubble tea with her best friend, jumped for joy upon hearing the news.
She didn't even have time to explain to her curious best friend next to her.
Then he posted a status update in the live stream:
"Fans, the opening day box office figures for the newly released movie are in! Twenty-five million!"
This caused the comment section of the live stream, which had been gradually quieting down, to explode once again.
The previous calm was due to fans' tireless efforts online, which thoroughly refuted the film critics who were attacking Xu Lu.
After taking down one troll after another, everyone finally released their excess energy, and besides, it was getting late, so they all prepared to rest.
However, at that moment, the assistant posted this update.
The fans in the live stream were once again filled with enthusiasm:
Although I don't know much about box office, 25 million sounds pretty good. Does anyone know anything about it?
[It's more than just good, it's excellent! The opening day box office was 25 million, and the total box office could even exceed 400 million.]
[That's impressive. I think the streamer invested 50 million, so he should be able to make a profit of 400 million.]
That's right! If it's 400 million, they'll probably get a little over 100 million in their share, easily making tens of millions.
...
[Hahaha, it's no wonder we put so much effort into taking down that little black guy; the movie is still a good movie after all.]
[You know, this is the streamer's first time directing a movie, it's freaking amazing!]
