Chapter 200 New Heroine

Perhaps it was because Su Yun's part-time job as an assistant director when she was filming "Falling in Love" was still there, and when Tom was touched on the forehead by her, he immediately subconsciously felt that "I need to be obedient."

So after being stunned for a second, he just stayed there.

Su Yun was almost irritated by his stupidity. She quickly ruffled his hair again and then yelled again: "Explain to me what's going on?!"

Tom was awakened by Su Yun's second lion roar. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly felt a slight chill in his upper body...

With heating on indoors, one will never feel the extreme cold or heat. But in such chilly spring weather as now, standing at the door with the door open, except for someone like Su Yun who is dressed neatly because he is going out, which normal person would not feel cold?

Especially since he's shirtless!

He is now...without any clothes on his upper body, completely naked!

When Tom thought about being seen by Su Yun in such a dishevelled and dishevelled state, he didn't bother to explain and just pulled the hair towel draped over the shoulders of the blonde sweetheart next to him - although Su Yun was the one with the most clothes among the three, how could he dare to challenge and snatch Su Yun's jacket, which was something that ordinary people could hardly do?

Not to mention that Su Yun is the direct disciple of Kung Fu King Lu Shaolong, and that he was able to beat up a bunch of people who bullied him when he was a child... Moreover, the ambiguous feelings he had towards Su Yun in his heart were enough to prevent him from taking action against Su Yun.

He snatched the fabric just to maintain his image in front of Su Yun!

However, this hair towel is not the kind of bath towel that can cover most of the body. It is about the size of an ordinary face towel. Tom managed to snatch it, but the result was not as he expected.

After all, according to the normal human body structure, the male body is supposed to be broader and stronger than the female body. He was playing a minor role as a soldier in a movie recently, so his shoulders were trained to be wider than a clothes hanger, and his chest muscles were also trained to be much stronger. Therefore, this towel, which was made even more pitiful by his broad body, covered his belly button but not his other points when it was used vertically. If it was used horizontally, it could not cover his other points or his belly button at the bottom, which made his actions even more obvious...

Looking at the blond sweetheart's expression of "this guy next to me is almost destroying my tolerance for idiots", Su Yun sighed, took off her windbreaker and put it on him: "Let's talk inside."

Tom wrapped himself tightly in the windbreaker that seemed to still carry the body temperature of its original owner. He huddled into the house like a stray cat. After calming down, he explained who this blond sweetheart who appeared in his house was in the warmth of the heater: "This is Meg Ryan. Like me, she came to New York to get involved in the entertainment industry. She lives across the street."

No matter how big a character becomes in the future, during the early stages of his career he is nothing more than a pitiful little creature who tries his best to be a minor character.

However, compared to him, who had family support and some money saved, so he still had a relatively comfortable life even in a foreign land; Meg, although a local, was the type who had to work part-time to pay for her studies since she was a child. After paying the rent, food and other miscellaneous expenses with her meager salary, it was basically all gone every month.

Occasionally, if there are unexpected situations such as damage to household appliances, physical discomfort or illness, it will be very difficult to cope with the situation.

Because the next payday for the extras is next week, Meg accidentally damaged the electrical wiring in her room yesterday, leaving her without hot water to wash. After a whole day of running and stunt shooting, which made her body drenched in sweat, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to her neighbor Tom, whom she was normally an acquaintance of, to ask him to use her bathroom to wash up.

At this time, Tom had just finished filming a minor scene rolling around in the mud during the day. Seeing her sincere expression and even bringing her a bag of potato chips as a reward, he reluctantly agreed to let her use the bathroom.

So, Meg, who washed her hair and took a shower first, was drying her hair with a towel in the living room, and Tom, who washed later, was blowing his hair with a hair dryer in the corner. So the person who came to open the door was naturally Meg, who was closest to the door.

"You guys really have a hard time." Su Yun nodded: in later generations when the Internet was developed, she also read the wandering diaries written by various "drifters" who were wandering in the film and television city. Those days as extras were indeed difficult but fulfilling.

"By the way, why did you suddenly come to New York again?" Tom changed the subject while taking clothes from the rack.

"I'm preparing to shoot a new movie recently, so I came here." Su Yun answered calmly, then looked at Meg - the expression on her face changed from sudden enlightenment to increasing surprise.

"Are you Mary Sue?" Meg asked over in great surprise.

"Yes, hello." Su Yun nodded.

"OMG! I used to love watching your movies. You and Alain Delon were so cool in Leon the Killer!" Meg almost screamed. "And The Sixth Sense is also really good. My mom and I used to not understand each other, just like in the movie. But because of your movie, our relationship has improved a lot!"

"Oh? That's really my honor." Su Yun felt very comfortable being praised: Isn't the purpose of her working in the film and television industry to bring beauty, happiness and joy to the audience?

Meg's flattery was very effective. After Su Yun felt comfortable, she began to look at her seriously.

In fact, ever since Tom introduced her name, Su Yun has consciously started to pay attention to this blonde sweetheart. She has watched the romantic movies "Sleepless in Seattle" and "You've Got Mail" starring her and Tom.

Of course, the Tom that Meg was working with was not the Tom Cruise in front of her, but the Tom Hanks who came to meet Su Yun when she was in college.

As a new generation of American sweetheart after the silent film era, Meg was lovingly called "her smile warmed the entire 1990s."

As expected, most of the people around SSRs are also SSRs. A newbie like Meg, who has a comprehensive future status and good national popularity, can only be obtained through unexpected discovery.

Su Yun kept an eye on Meg while talking to Tom. Finally, under Meg's grateful but still somewhat suspicious gaze, she rolled up her sleeves and went to the next room to help her fix the line...

"It's really fine! Thank you so much!" Seeing that the long-lost light in the room really came on after Su Yun pressed the switch, Meg hugged her excitedly, "You are awesome!"

None of the male friends she knew could fix it, so she originally thought she would have to wait until her salary was paid and then spend money to hire a professional repairman to do it.

This saved Su Yun a lot of money for repairs!

"Of course, Mary graduated from St. Clair's, majoring in computer science." Tom stood at the door and saw Meg so excited that she not only hugged Su Yun but also kissed her cheek. He felt a little strange in his heart.

Su Yun is Chinese, so her personality should be reserved and shy... Why does she seem to have no resistance at all?

Maybe it’s because Su Yun looks so domineering, like a big boss with his sleeves rolled up repairing circuits?

After a long struggle, Tom finally came to his senses while lying on the bed after sending Su Yun away: It doesn't matter, Su Yun always likes to pick handsome men with their own unique qualities when choosing new people, and a sweetheart like Meg has never been the type she chooses to work with...

However, Tom, who had no intention of forgetting the old for the new, received a message from Meg a few days later: "Mary invited me to be the leading actress in her new movie. It was you who recommended me. Thank you so much!"

Tom was stunned when he heard this: "What?!"

"You don't have to pretend. Mary has explained everything to me. Anyway, thank you so much. I will definitely remember this kindness!" Meg said, and stuffed him with a bunch of expensive snacks that she had been hiding and reluctant to eat. "These are all I have for now, but if I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay you!"

Because it was not good to waste these snacks, Tom was promoted from a minor role to the third male lead in the movie "Lights Out" where he played a minor role because of his good performance. He obviously had a little "baby fat"...

On this side, after confirming that Su Yun really signed another unknown new actress to be the heroine of the movie, Ovitz was a little puzzled: "In fact, even if I can't help you successfully invite Glenn Close, it should be easy to find actresses of a lower level..."

"Forget it. Instead of looking for these, I might as well find someone with potential to cultivate myself." Su Yun waved her hand. "Please trust my judgment - just as I have always trusted your judgment."

Having said that, Ovitz, who knew Su Yun's character well, had no reason to refute her decision, so he finally nodded and approved of Su Yun's approach.

But Ovitz is not the only one who questions Su Yun's decision.

"I heard that you didn't hire some big-name actresses with box office appeal for the female lead, but instead hired a little-known newcomer?" When Zhao Liming's long-distance call came, Su Yun was making small modifications to the heroine's character and related plot in the script based on Meg's appearance.

"Yeah, isn't this for our plan?" Su Yun immediately yelled into the phone, "Big-name actresses are so expensive——"

"For our Shenzhen stock market plan, I have to leave more money for you to do things, so I had no choice but to choose such a risky method..." The investment amount of this new movie was evaluated according to Su Yun's plan. The shooting cost is basically fixed, while the cost of the actors varies with the actors Su Yun can invite.

However, after the film plan is submitted, the review and certification as well as the points of human manipulation are the responsibility of the managers of the Hong Kong Zhao's Film Company.

Zhao Qiming is the person in charge of Su Yun's new film plan this time.

Do a favor to Tom from Meg, and do another favor to Zhao Qiming here...Su Yun is becoming more and more adept at this kind of operation that kills two birds with one stone.

“Meg Ryan’s mother used to be a casting director, and later became an actress. Influenced by her mother, Meg joined the Screen Actors Guild early on and auditioned for TV and film roles. She has a certain level of qualifications and popularity – so, do you understand what I mean?” Su Yun almost made it clear: as long as Zhao Liming can make some arrangements to confirm that Meg is a well-known second- or third-tier star, then the investment she can get from Zhao’s company will be relatively ample.

Alas, in order to reap the benefits of this new SSR, she had no choice but to resort to this last resort.

"But why do you want to do this? It won't save much money and it's risky..." Zhao Liming was still a little hesitant.

"Because I think Meg Ryan has the potential to become the impression of a generation in the future, and can also bring new vitality to the currently seemingly lifeless Hollywood actress circle." The chick flicks such as literary romance and comedy romance initiated by the sweetheart actress, which focus on serving the female audience, are particularly cost-effective in the subsequent film genres.

For someone like Su Yun who likes all kinds of clichéd classic plots and popcorn romance movies, the most she did was to shout "chick movie yyds".
