Chapter 711: The Little Celebrity Who Hooked Up with the Money Boss in the Entertainment Industry (5)
"Asking the Immortal" is a drama adapted from a popular novel, and it has attracted much attention before filming even started.
The story mainly revolves around the hero Xie Chen who enters the world of cultivation to slay demons and monsters, uncovers the mystery of his life experience, and ultimately resolves the catastrophe of world destruction and strives to become an immortal.
There are four outstanding female characters in total.
The cold and beautiful master who helped the male protagonist a lot on his path of cultivation; the saint of the demon sect who fell in love and hated the male protagonist and finally died under the male protagonist's sword; the quirky little sister who disliked the male protagonist in the early stage but became his little fan girl in the later stage; and the childhood sweetheart who joined the immortal sect together with the male protagonist.
This is a drama with a strong male lead, but the female characters are well-portrayed, and if they are well-acted, they have the potential to become popular.
Su Yu didn't get to play the first or second female lead, so she could only choose between the last two third female leads who had equal parts in the screen.
Su Yu and Zheng Hong studied the script and finally decided to choose the junior sister.
"Junior sister's character is quite likable. Be careful when you act and don't make your facial features look too exaggerated. When you have time, watch how seniors played such roles and study their acting skills." Zheng Hong advised worriedly.
Su Yu nodded: "Don't worry, Sister Hong, I will definitely act well."
Su Yu’s acting skills are actually not bad, but she has never had the resources. Zheng Hong can only hope that she can seize the opportunity this time. Even if she can’t soar to fame, at least she has to be remembered by the audience.
After deciding on the role of junior sister, Zheng Hong asked Su Yu to prepare well.
In fact, the most stable role is still the childhood sweetheart.
The part where the junior sister couldn't stand the male protagonist in the early stage could easily cause dissatisfaction among the audience, but the childhood sweetheart doesn't have such concerns, as she is a character who stands on the side of the male protagonist from beginning to end.
It’s a pity that this role is not suitable for Su Yu.
Zheng Hong's gaze fell on Su Yu's face. This face was very pretty, delicate and sweet. It was easy to remind people of a little princess who was doted on by everyone. She didn't look like she had ever suffered.
Of course, Su Yu never thought about playing the role of childhood sweethearts.
Because that role belongs to the heroine Xia Ning.
…
On the day she joined the crew, Zheng Hong didn't come to see her off because she had to take other artists with her, and only let her assistant go with her.
Assistant Xiaotian opened the car door for Su Yu: "Sister."
Su Yu got out of the car wearing designer clothes and fashionable sunglasses. A special staff member led the way for her, and her assistant followed behind with bags.
Su Yu finally saw the true face of the heroine.
★The first impression is that the girl is very white.
As the saying goes, a white complexion can hide three flaws. Xia Ning was not a particularly stunning beauty, but she had an excellent temperament and exuded an aura that made people's eyes light up.
There is no shortage of beauties in the entertainment industry, but what is lacking is beauties that can be remembered at first sight.
Obviously, Xia Ning is the latter.
"Sister, what are you looking at?" Xiaotian took a small fan and blew it at Su Yu. Seeing that she was looking in one direction, he couldn't help but feel curious.
Su Yu did not retract her gaze, staring at Xia Ning, fear gradually forming in her eyes: "Who is she?"
Xiaotian had done his homework in advance and immediately replied: "That's Xia Ning, the actor who plays Yun Qing."
Yunqing is the childhood sweetheart of the male protagonist in "Asking the Immortal".
Su Yu looked inquiring: "Newcomer?"
Oda: "Yes, I heard that she graduated from a film school. I don't know if she had played supporting roles before, but this is her first movie with a name on it."
Realizing someone was looking at her, Xia Ning raised her eyes. When she met Su Yu's unevasive gaze, she was stunned for a moment, then she gave a friendly smile.
Su Yu also gave a polite fake smile, then turned her face away expressionlessly.
Before everyone arrived, Su Yu sat in the lounge for a while, chatting with Xiaotian. During this time, someone came over to talk to her, but Su Yu's attitude was not enthusiastic.
The lounge is very large and there is more than just Su Yu in it.
Xia Ning sat on the other side, occasionally looking at Su Yu.
Xia Ning's assistant was assigned by the company, and she was also a newcomer with a lively personality: "Sister Xia Xia, that actor has a strong personality and doesn't really talk to people. Isn't he afraid of being excluded?"
Xia Ning shook her head: "We should not interfere in other people's affairs. It is enough to do our own thing well."
The assistant stuck out his tongue: "That's true."
"Xia Xia, are you hot? Let me fan you." The assistant found a piece of cardboard to use as a fan. "It's all my fault. I should have bought a small fan earlier."
The assistant had no experience and looked at Su Yu with envy as she was cooling herself with a small fan.
"I can do it myself." Xia Ning took the cardboard and fanned herself, comforting her, "It's okay, we can just go out and buy two tonight."
The assistant was touched: "Sister Xia Xia, you are so nice."
Su Yu sat there playing with her phone. After reporting safety to Zheng Hong, she switched to another chat window.
Su Yu: [Assistant Xiang, can you really not send Mr. Si’s WeChat to me?]
To her shame, she, the canary, still doesn’t have the sponsor’s WeChat account, and has to rely on the sponsor’s assistant if she wants to contact him.
Xiang Hui: [Sorry, I can’t do this without Mr. Si’s consent.]
Su Yu turned off her phone angrily.
Seeing this, Xiaotian asked, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Su Yu exhaled: "Nothing."
After adjusting her mood, she reopened the chat box with Xiang Hui: [Okay, I will talk to Mr. Si in person next time.]
Xiang Hui: [Okay.] :)
Su Yu: [Can I trouble you with one more thing?]
Xiang Hui: [Please go ahead.]
Su Yu: [Please tell Mr. Si that I miss him so much that I can’t eat or sleep.]
As an excellent canary, she must always show her presence and let the sponsor feel her full love.
Xiang Hui remained calm: [Okay.]
"Assistant Xiang, who is it again?"
As Si Yuheng's assistant, Xiang Hui has been holding his phone and replying to messages seriously more frequently recently, while the other assistants look gossipy.
Xiang Hui nodded and couldn't help but sigh.
"What do you want me to do this time?"
"Nothing, just passing on a message."
Xiang Hui didn't say much. He knocked on the door and entered Si Yuheng's office, and told Si Yuheng exactly what Su Yu said.
Si Yuheng didn't even raise his head. He just nodded to indicate that he understood and asked Xiang Hui to go out.
"OK."
He passed the message on, but the boss was cold and heartless, so Miss Su's wishes were doomed to fail.
Xiang Hui left, closing the door considerately.
Si Yuheng flipped through the documents a little slower, as those words kept repeating in his mind unconsciously. He missed him so much that he couldn't eat or sleep.
Si Yuheng felt that this was like forgetting the pain once the wound had healed.
On the other side, after showing her presence in front of the sponsor, Su Yu happily put down her phone.
Glancing at the heroine, Xia Ning was holding the script and patiently reciting her lines, and Su Yu felt drawn to it.
After a moment of silence, Su Yu turned to look at Xiao Tian: "Where is my script?"
Xiaotian was stunned and quickly took out the script from his bag: "Here, sister."
"Puchi." Xia Ning's assistant couldn't help laughing and whispered to Xia Ning, "Sister Xia Xia, she is so interesting. When she saw you reciting your lines, she immediately picked up the script and read it."
Especially the expression at the beginning, which was complicated and a bit hard to describe, and also a little unconvinced, like an innocent classmate who was dragged down by a top student.
This might not be right, after all, Xia Ning was just a newcomer, but the assistant somehow felt it was appropriate.
Xia Ning was stunned for a moment, rolled up the script and tapped the assistant's head gently: "Don't talk nonsense, it might just be a coincidence."
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside.
Xia Ning seemed to hear someone calling someone's name.
The assistant was surprised: "Sister Xia Xia, it's Sang Jingyu and Ning Xiao, they are here."
