Chapter 3 Plot Control
As soon as I walked to the door, Zhou Yan called.
Seeing the caller ID, Chu Yunshu frowned slightly, but still answered the phone: "Hello."
"Come to the conference room right now."
Zhou Yan was very angry with him. He explained things in a simple and rough manner, and hung up the phone without waiting for Chu Yunshu's reply.
Chu Yunshu walked into the elevator and hesitated for a moment, then pressed the button for the 32nd floor - the large conference room where the script reading was held was on the 32nd floor of the hotel.
There were not many people in the conference room. Several of the main actors were not there, but Tan Xiaolin, who was from the same company as Chu Yunshu, was there.
He and Chu Yunshu are both artists under Zhou Yan, but he is not as good-looking as Chu Yunshu, and he is also a newcomer, so he is not as valued as Chu Yunshu in front of Zhou Yan.
But at this moment, Zhou Yan's expressions and demeanor when talking to Tan Xiaolin were very different from the past. He looked quite friendly and seemed to be very satisfied with Tan Xiaolin.
"Brother Zhou, Yunshu is here." Tan Xiaolin turned his head and saw Chu Yunshu walking in, and the smile on his face became meaningful.
Being able to be signed into an entertainment company and become an artist, even if her appearance is not as good as Chu Yunshu’s, it is not much worse. Perhaps it was because he was in high spirits because of good news, Tan Xiaolin seemed to be in very good condition today and looked much brighter.
If it weren't for the slightly sarcastic smile on his face, Chu Yunshu would probably have admired him for two more seconds.
As soon as Zhou Yan saw Chu Yunshu, his face immediately darkened.
Because the screenwriter and assistant director were also there, Zhou Yan did not get angry. He just said to Chu Yunshu in a bad tone, "You don't have to play the role of Zhou Jin."
As expected, Chu Yunshu accepted it well and there was no change in expression on his face.
Tan Xiaolin snorted lightly and said nothing.
The assistant director took the script from the screenwriter and handed it to Chu Yunshu: "Yunshu, we've thought about it and think that the role of male No. 7 is quite suitable for you. You should read the script carefully and memorize the lines in the next few days."
Oh, what a pity! Zhou Jin was such a perfect character, but they just replaced her.
Chu Yunshu took the script blankly, tears in his eyes: "I, I can still act?"
Shouldn't it be banned?
Zhou Yan frowned. He always felt that there was something strange about Chu Yunshu, but he couldn't tell why.
However, Chu Yunshu's reaction at this moment made him feel much more comfortable. I told you not to listen to me, and now you regret it?
He cleared his throat and said to Chu Yunshu, "You have to thank Xiao Lin for this. If he hadn't interceded for you in front of Mr. Lin, you wouldn't have had a chance to be the male No. 7, or even an extra."
According to his idea, Chu Yunshu should be banned directly, cutting off all his ways out and making it impossible for him to be noble.
But Tan Xiaolin wanted Lin Yang to give Chu Yunshu a role, saying that they were artists from the same company and he didn't want to make things too awkward.
What's more, they have the same agent, and he doesn't want to make things difficult for Zhou Yan.
Zhou Yan actually knew what Tan Xiaolin was thinking. Ever since Chu Yunshu joined the company, he had spent a lot of time and energy on Chu Yunshu. He paid relatively less attention to Tan Xiaolin, who was handsome but not outstanding.
Tan Xiaolin was very dissatisfied with Chu Yunshu because of this, but he was a good person and never showed it.
This time, Chu Yunshu gave him an opportunity. When Lin Yang was rejected by Chu Yunshu and had nowhere to vent his anger, he offered himself to Lin Yang and got into Lin Yang's bed. He captured Lin Yang with his "technical skills" and kept him by his side.
As a reward for him and also as a punishment for Chu Yunshu, Lin Yang gave the role of Zhou Jin to Tan Xiaolin and prepared to kick Chu Yunshu out of the crew.
But Tan Xiaolin spoke well of Chu Yunshu and even helped him get a new role, male No. 7 - the tyrant.
Only by keeping him under your nose can you give him no chance to regret hooking up with Lin Yang.
What's more, the character of the tyrant is a pure paper man, who is bad just for the sake of being bad. Not only is the character not three-dimensional, he also took advantage of Zhou Jin's patriotism and killed Zhou Jin.
Such a character who cannot distinguish right from wrong and is cruel and inhumane will only disgust the audience.
I have to say that Tan Xiaolin is indeed more suitable for the entertainment industry than Chu Yunshu.
"Thank you, Xiao Lin." Chu Yunshu expressed his gratitude sincerely, holding the script and said to Zhou Yan, "Brother Zhou, I'm sorry about what happened yesterday. I will prepare well for this role."
After saying this, he went aside very respectfully and began to study the script.
Zhou Yan's frown was almost twisted into a knot.
Could it be that Chu Yunshu has schizophrenia? Today's attitude is very different from last night.
Tan Xiaolin also frowned. Chu Yunshu’s reaction was wrong. Wasn’t he very tough? Shouldn't he be angry now? Shouldn't I argue with him? How did it become something like being grateful?
He was not given any chance to make sarcastic remarks.
In addition to Zhou Yan and Tan Xiaolin, Chu Yunshu was also quite dissatisfied with his performance just now. Why was he so servile? It was obvious that Tan Xiaolin wanted to take the opportunity to humiliate him. What was he saying about helping him get a role? It was obvious that he had snatched the role that should have belonged to him.
The power of the plot, Chu Yunshu lamented in his heart, would he really have to compete with Hao Yifeng for Qiu Lang in the future?
No, is he really going to play this tyrant?
Chu Yunshu wanted to return the script to the assistant director and tell him that they had already signed the contract and that he should play Zhou Jin, not some male number seven, an obnoxious tyrant.
However, when this thought came to him, he could not move or speak until he gave up and accepted the role of the tyrant, and then he regained control of his body.
It seemed that there was some force controlling him, forcing him to say things against his will and do things that Chu Yunshu should have done in the book "The Domineering CEO Falls in Love with Me".
Alas, Chu Yunshu sighed in his heart.
Forget it, let him be male No. 7 and let him be a tyrant.
To change your perspective, not having to be subject to unspoken rules and still having movies to shoot can be considered a blessing in disguise.
It just so happens that in the country of Nanyu he is the tyrant that everyone talks about with horror, and now he is playing his true self.
On the day of the opening ceremony, Chu Yunshu met Lin Yang again. Lin Yang blocked him in the bathroom and said, "Nice to meet you again. I didn't expect you to look so good in this outfit. You look even more exciting."
What you can't get will always make you restless. Although Lin Yang was annoyed that Chu Yunshu didn't know how to appreciate his kindness and dared to hit him, roses all have thorns. Such a beauty was too submissive, which could easily make people lose interest.
Chu Yunshu felt extremely disgusted when he looked at Lin Yang, who was a head shorter than him and had a wretched face.
Isn’t there already Tan Xiaolin? Why is he still unwilling to give up on him? It seems that his punch that night was not powerful enough.
"Mr. Lin, please respect yourself." Chu Yunshu had a cold face, and his right hand hanging by his side was clenched into a fist. He was afraid that he would be controlled by the plot again and do something against his will.
So he planned to wait for Lin Yang to take another step forward before taking action.
"Mr. Lin, why are you here? It took me a long time to find you." Chu Yunshu breathed a sigh of relief at Tan Xiaolin's timely appearance.
Finally found it.
Tan Xiaolin had been monitoring him. After seeing Lin Yang's assistant, Chu Yunshu deliberately took a detour and went around Tan Xiaolin's assistant before coming to the bathroom.
This is to avoid meeting Lin Yang.
After all, according to the plot of the original book, Chu Yunshu compromised with Lin Yang.
If he was manipulated by the plot and bowed his head in front of Lin Yang, then it would be all over.
Even though he has felt the power of the plot, he still wants to fight for himself.
It seems that Tan Xiaolin's assistant is quite responsible in his work, and it is worth it that Zhou Yan arranged such an assistant for Tan Xiaolin when the other newcomers did not have assistants yet.
While Tan Xiaolin and Lin Yang were arguing, Chu Yunshu turned around and left.
Because I was walking too fast, I accidentally bumped into someone at the corner.
