Chapter 639: Disdain for Old Age
Tao Zhiwei was about to leave, so He Lushen naturally wanted to see him off. He was a little annoyed, thinking that he had come at the wrong time and ruined Tao Zhiwei and Yang Huayue's "date".
The two walked out of the villa together, and Tao Zhiwei took the initiative to ask about "Battle of the North Wind".
He Lushen didn't think much about it and said, "The filming of "War of the North Wind" has been stopped. Although 99% of the scenes of the movie have been shot, the female lead must be replaced after the scandal of Fu Feiqian. My father meant that we should wait until this storm is over before looking for a suitable candidate. The main reason is that now that she is at the cusp of the storm, even the better actresses are unwilling to take this film."
Just like most women don’t want to wear second-hand clothes or shoes, female stars don’t want to play second-hand roles, especially those played by a vicious actress. No matter how good the script is, it can’t stand a bad apple spoiling the whole barrel.
Tao Zhiwei nodded and asked, "Have you finished filming Yang Huayue's scenes?"
"We've finished filming. The director said that we can still use the shot before she fell off the horse. For the last ten seconds, a body double will be enough, and it won't be noticeable after editing." He Lushen thought that Tao Zhiwei was worried about his sweetheart, and immediately promised, "Don't worry, I won't let Yang Huayue take any job that threatens her personal safety." He thought that he would treat Yang Huayue well in the future and give her the best resources of the company.
As expected, Tao Zhiwei showed a satisfied expression and said, "Chu Yu is the actress that Ah Zhan just signed." The topic changed from Yang Huayue to Chu Yu so quickly that He Lushen was a little unable to catch up.
When Yu Zhan signed Chu Yu, although he did it on his own initiative and did not inform Qiu Jing, he sent WeChat messages to Tao Zhiwei and Tao Zhiyao, attaching Chu Yu's resume, saying that the company was not owned by him alone, and the Tao brothers and sisters had the right to know. Tao Zhiyao of course agreed to sign Chu Yu, and Tao Zhiwei also replied to Yu Zhan with an OK expression.
"You can consider letting her replace Fu Feiqian."
...
...
He Lushen stood still for a moment, he saw the seriousness in Tao Zhiwei's eyes. Yes, Tao Zhiwei's style of doing things was serious, he rarely joked, and what he said, he would either execute it himself or let others execute it.
Chu Yu's beautiful cold face appeared in He Lushen's mind again. He really had no impression of this actress. He found it very strange. She was so beautiful, there was no reason for him not to know her, unless she was a newcomer.
"I'm sorry, Brother Zhiwei, if she doesn't have any experience in the arts, there's no way I'm going to use her."
"I've read her resume. She has ten years of work experience and has filmed many movies and TV series. She is also a graduate of the Capital Film Academy. Fu Feiqian didn't even go to college, right?"
He Lushen was surprised, "Then she must be over 30 years old?!"
"Yes, he seems to be about the same age as me, only one or two years younger." Tao Zhiwei doesn't think age is a problem. He feels that he is quite young now.
But He Lushen didn't think so. He didn't realize Chu Yu was that old! Good looks can indeed make people look younger. It's no wonder he didn't know her, because he would never pay attention to female stars who are older than him and have no status. Aren't young beauties more attractive than old women?
Thinking about it carefully, when Chu Yu was a freshman in college, he was just in the first grade of junior high school... No, I can't think about it anymore!
He Lushen felt a chill in his heart. How could he have such a strange idea? Why did he want to compare his age with Chu Yu? But her appearance was really deceptive.
"She is too old and not suitable for this role."
Tao Zhiwei asked back, "Do you think I'm old?"
He Lushen immediately denied it, "No, no, no, you are at your best age now. Besides, a man is still young at forty."
"Then why are women despised when they turn 30?"
"Uh..." He Lushen was speechless, "The rules in the circle are like this, unless she makes achievements, has a great reputation, and uses her talent to block aging."
"Rules are made by people and can be changed at any time and anywhere. Since A-Zhan and I have also begun to wade into the muddy waters of your entertainment industry, we naturally hope that the artists of Xinghe can have the best development and our investment can also have a corresponding return. Don't you want to cooperate with us for a win-win situation?"
Tao Zhiwei continued, "Besides, everyone will grow old one day. Using age to measure a person's value is the most stupid, superficial and meaningless way."
