☆, Chapter 20 Performance
Two people who were well-connected in the industry and knew Director Lin couldn't help but step forward and greet him, "Director Lin, why are you so excited to come out today?"
"The new movie is about to start shooting, let's have a meal with the investors." Director Lin was not familiar with the two of them, so he was not as enthusiastic as he was with Wen Mianyu, and his tone was flat.
"It's not good to delay having dinner with investors, so we won't bother you. Director Lin, please keep me in mind if there are any suitable roles in the future." The man said respectfully.
Director Lin nodded slightly, "Yes, if there's something suitable."
After saying that, he turned to Wen Mianyu and said, "It's fate that we met here. Miss Su, why don't you come back to the private room with me and have dinner together? Today's meeting is with an investor from the crew, as well as a few staff members. Oh, and Congxu is also here."
Wen Mianyu had no interest in this kind of dinner, but when she heard that Lu Congxu was there, she changed her mind and said, "Then let's get to know each other."
Then he told his classmates, "I have an appointment at the last minute, so I won't be leaving with you all. I hope you have fun."
"It's okay, just go about your business."
"You keep busy, don't worry about us."
Everyone said politely.
Wen Mianyu followed Director Lin into the box.
The door closed and the students looked at each other in the corridor, still in disbelief.
Although Director Lin is jokingly called a box office poison director by netizens, that is because he does not make commercial films. Director Lin has a high class and likes literature and art. Many of his films have won major awards abroad. He has a high status in the circle, otherwise he would not be able to attract new investment.
Box office is proof of commercial value, but awards are proof of status. There are many big names in the circle who want to act in Director Lin’s movies, not to mention these small actors.
How could Su Moli actually get a role in Director Lin's film? What kind of luck is this?
…
"Mr. Chen, this is Su Moli, the lead actress of our new film. Her acting skills and knowledge of opera are quite impressive. It's all thanks to you that we were able to choose such a great actress!" Director Lin brought Wen Mianyu to the table as soon as he entered the private room and introduced her to the investor. "Moli, this is Mr. Chen from Yaoqing Media."
"Hello, Mr. Chen." Wen Mianyu walked forward and shook hands with Chen Yaoqing.
She was quite familiar with Mr. Chen. They had dined together when the film project was launched. However, both of them attended as investors at that time, but now their status was different.
Chen Yaoqing is over forty years old and has been in the business world for a long time. The mask of a smiling tiger is often hung on his face. He said, "Miss Su is indeed very beautiful and has an outstanding temperament."
"Mr. Chen, thank you for your compliment." Wen Mianyu nodded and sat down next to Director Lin.
She sat down next to Director Lin on her right and Lu Congxu on her left. She smiled at Lu Congxu as she sat down and said, "Mr. Lu, nice to see you again."
"Yeah." Lu Congxu responded softly.
"When I went out to the corridor, I happened to meet Jasmine eating there, so I brought her over." Director Lin explained.
Lu Congxu's deep gaze fell on Wen Mianyu and said, "What a coincidence."
Wen Mianyu winked at him playfully and said half-jokingly, "It's fate."
"Miss Su is also familiar with Mr. Lu?" Chen Yaoqing asked as he watched the interaction between the two.
"We weren't that familiar with each other, but when we were auditioning yesterday, Cong Xu happened to be there too..." Director Lin explained to Chen Yaoqing about the scene they were filming together that day.
After hearing this, Chen Yaoqing looked at Wen Mianyu with a different look in his eyes. "Ms. Su is such a good Peking Opera singer? I'm also a Peking Opera fan."
"If Mr. Chen hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about this. You're more than just a hobbyist; you're practically an expert," the producer said enthusiastically. "Since Miss Su is here, why don't you let her sing a bit and give you her critique?"
"I just don't know if Miss Su is available." Chen Yaoqing said.
