Lin Luosang was woken up early the next morning by the vibration of his cell phone.
She pressed her forehead, turned her back and fumbled for her phone. As soon as she put it to her ear, she heard Sheng Qianye's earnest cry: "Help!"
She cleared her throat. "What's wrong?"
"The show needs a guest actor to help me save the situation."
"What?" Lin Luosang glanced at the screen. "Did you dial the wrong number? The person you're talking to now is Lin Luosang, the singer."
"That's right, there's a female lead in the play—that's me," Sheng Qianye introduced. "I have two good friends I haven't seen in a long time. The original actress got food poisoning and is currently in the hospital. She can't act anymore, so where can I find someone who feels like my best friend? This role is very important to the plot, so I have to find someone beautiful. The director personally mentioned you to me and asked if you could come and see it. We happen to be in Y City. It won't take you an hour. It's just one line and a close-up of her eyes."
Lin Luosang opened his lips and made a hollow sound.
"But I've never acted before, and I can't act."
"Stop talking nonsense! Our director has already reviewed your performance twice. We're impressed by your ability to create dramatic scenes. All art forms are interconnected, including performance. Just think of it as assigning you a stage persona of a cold and beautiful woman," Sheng Qianye added. "It's similar to the feeling of 'Cinnabar'. You can definitely pull it off."
"How can I find a good-looking supporting actress in such a hurry? What if this play fails because I didn't find the right role? Then my three or four months of hard work will be ruined. Are you willing to watch me..."
"Okay, stop it," Lin Luosang stopped Sheng Qianye from playing the emotional card in time, "Let me think about it."
"What are you thinking about? Is there even a need to think about this? Your 'Cinnabar', 'Opportunity', and even 'Tail' are all different, but you performed well, didn't you?" Sheng Qianye said, "This role is really not difficult. We didn't choose you for your acting skills, but mainly because you fit the character. This character has a very small role, always living in the mouths of friends, but it is an important part of the main plot, so the character must be established, otherwise the plot will not work. As for the acting... as long as it doesn't go out of character, it's fine."
Sheng Qianye's words really dispelled many of Lin Luosang's concerns. She had not taken on any films before because she wanted to focus on music. Now she could accept taking a few hours to help a friend.
What's more, achieving an effect similar to that of "Cinnabar" is within her ability.
At this time, Sheng Qianye used his trump card: "Two actors met for a barbecue last night, and one of them got food poisoning. Ji Ning has agreed to fill the other position for me. We are short one, so you should consider it yourself."
“…”
"Okay," Lin Luosang threw back the quilt and got out of bed. "When exactly?"
"Two o'clock in the afternoon, are you free today?"
"It's okay. The rehearsal workload for the new stage is relatively light."
Sheng Qianye answered readily: "It's settled then. I'll send you the address. Call me when you get there. Ningning and I will pick you up in person!"
After getting out of bed, she brushed her teeth while talking to Yue Hui on the phone to explain the current situation.
Yue Hui was in a good mood: "Okay, it's a good opportunity to show off my face in a TV series and explore new business."
"Then we'll pick you up in the company RV later. The crew often has to wait for scenes and rest during transitions, so having an RV will be much more convenient and warmer."
Lin Luosang nodded, "Okay."
Although she has a lot of disposable income, she has never spent money on luxury cars.
First, there are already enough luxury cars in the garage at home, and second, her car is more than enough for her daily needs. When she needs to use the RV occasionally, she can just pick it up from the company. Anyway, it is all arranged by Yue Hui and others, and she has no time to choose what model to use.
Before leaving that afternoon, she noticed the man reading a newspaper beside her. After much deliberation, she decided to let him know: "I have something to do outside. Qian Ye's scene is short of an extra, so I'll fill in."
"Um."
After agreeing, he seemed to know her itinerary very well and asked, "Did they pick you up in an RV?"
Only then did she remember that she was brushing her teeth while talking to Yue Hui on the phone, so she turned on the speakerphone. He must have heard it.
"Yes, an RV is more convenient."
"There's a UNICAT in the garage," the man said casually. "Drive that."
She knew that her family had an RV, but after Yue Hui and the others had made their arrangements, she felt there was no need to disrupt her work plans, so unless the team took the initiative to ask, she would not interfere with such trivial matters in the schedule.
But since the man said so now, he probably thought the car at home was more suitable for her to film, so she also sent a message to Yue Hui about changing the car.
After parking his original car in the garage, Yue Hui got out and rushed towards a certain target vehicle: "Fuck, Mercedes-Benz UNICAT, I've seen it before!!"
Lin Luosang looked at the car that was unfamiliar to him and frowned slightly: "Where have you seen it before?"
"In the video showing off wealth."
“…”
"They say they only produce about twenty cars a year, and the price is 16 million—" Seeing Xiao Nuan take a breath, Yue Hui patted her shoulder and continued to add to what he had just said, "Start."
"It starts at 16 million and can be customized according to needs."
Xiao Nuan sighed as she looked at the luxurious RV in front of her that was more than twice her height.
The three of them got into the car. Yue Hui studied the furnishings inside the car while asking Lin Luosang, "How did you suddenly get an RV?"
"Pei Hanzhou asked me to drive it. Actually, we've always had one at home, but I don't remember when this one came..."
"It must have been bought recently," Yue Hui said firmly, "It's a new model."
"That's weird. I see Pei Hanzhou rarely drives an RV. Why did he suddenly buy this?"
Just after he finished speaking, Yue Hui was attracted by the button at the booth again. He pressed it for a long time, and Xiao Nuan, who was lying on the table checking the itinerary, was lifted up by the table.
Yue Hui angrily scolded the capitalists: "Fuck, it's great to be rich. Even the table in the RV can be raised and lowered."
Before Lin Luosang and Xiao Nuan could speak, he became more and more immersed in the world of discovery——
"There's even a skylight overhead. The rain is so heavy today, even heavier than the day Jiang Zhishu stole the electric bike to support Yuan Xiangqin."
"The chair is made of real leather, right? Damn, it even has so many massage functions."
"The resolution of this TV is so clear, and the sound quality of the speakers is amazing. Why would we have such a luxurious time in the RV?"
"Ice cream and yogurt makers! And a coffee machine worth tens of thousands! What a fantastic setup! The kitchen is so high-end too!"
Lin Luosang:?
At the end, Yue Hui commented: "It's much better than the entry-level one our company provides. I even feel it's better than my home."
Xiao Nuan: "Are you done exploring?"
"Not yet. There's still a long way to go."
After exploring the entire landscape, Yue Hui returned to Lin Luosang and said, "I just sent you the script. Have you finished reading it?"
"I've finished reading it."
It was just one line of dialogue, "Long time no see," and a few close-ups, which was indeed not difficult for her as a popular contestant.
"The director has good taste. I've always felt that your face would be wasted if you didn't act. You have no idea how many high-priced scripts I've turned down, and I've simply watched the money slip away from my pocket..." Yue Hui slapped his thigh. "But singing is also good. Albums and concerts will provide a steady income. My artists should just do what they love and not be controlled by profit."
Xiao Nuan couldn't help but say, "That's not what you said last time when you turned down a script with a salary of 30 million."
Yue Hui: “…”
Xiao Nuan: "You cried for half an hour."
The car quickly drove to the set. Lin Luosang got out and was greeted by Sheng Qianye's light punch on his shoulder: "Help me!"
Lin Luosang: “Has it started?”
"Not yet. Let's wait for notification. Let's go to Ningning's car first."
As soon as they got in the car, the topic turned directly to the emotional aspects that sisters often discuss.
Sheng Qianye asked Lin Luosang earnestly: "How are you and Pei Hanzhou doing? Are you still getting a divorce?"
"Didn't they say there was a cooling-off period?" Lin Luosang blew on the tea in his hand. "I plan to discuss the outcome of this matter with him again in a week."
She never likes to reveal things unclearly. Whether it is reconciliation or divorce, even if it is an episode in life, there must be an ending.
As for the final decision, leave it to yourself a week later.
All she needs to do now is find herself and feel or enjoy herself.
The afternoon scene started quickly. We changed five camera positions and shot it six or seven times before it was completed, which was quite smooth.
After hearing the director call cut, Sheng Qianye looked at Ji Ning with a smile: "I told you it wasn't difficult, right? Isn't it similar to your usual stage performances?"
Before leaving, the director found her alone and extended an olive branch: "I'm currently filming the third part of the detective series and I need a female lead."
"Don't be so quick to refuse. Although you're the female lead, our main plot is about three men solving a case. So, even though you're an indispensable female lead in the main plot, your role isn't actually that big, and we finished filming in about ten days. Because the female lead needs to be able to play the pipa, I auditioned several actors and wasn't satisfied with any of them, but I think you're not bad. I know your main focus is music, and this movie won't take up a lot of your time. You can treat it as a fresh experience."
"Besides, the first two films were both box office hits, this drama has a very broad audience base, and the female lead's character is also very likable and stunning. Changing the title of the female lead in a hit movie every ten or twenty days is a good deal."
The director was kind enough to ask her to leave Yue Hui's business card, saying that she would think about it carefully and contact him later.
"Okay, I look forward to our collaboration," the director said. "I think your face is very lively and suitable for the screen."
After finishing his work related to film and television, Lin Luosang went to the studio to rehearse for a few hours, waiting for his performance the day after tomorrow.
It was already past ten when she got home. As soon as she stepped into the house, she received a message from Yue Hui. He looked quite serious: "Come to me when you wake up tomorrow. I want to discuss our development plans after the end of "Audio-Visual Feast."
She pursed her lips and said hello.
The lights in the living room were off, and she had planned to walk straight through the living room, but the tablet on the table was not turned off and was still glowing stubbornly in the darkness.
She guessed that Pei Hanzhou was in the middle of talking about business, so she subconsciously walked over and prepared to press the lock screen.
Before I could lock it, my eyes were attracted by something in the picture.
It was a Weibo post of her working yesterday. In the picture, she was smiling at the camera, and standing next to her was a man who always had an expressionless face.
He didn't avoid it and was captured in the camera with her. Although the picture looked inexplicably incongruous, it was also somewhat funny.
Obviously, Pei Hanzhou's intrusion in the work photo aroused the interest of fans and netizens. Someone found Lin Luosang's previous work photo, picked out the glutinous rice ball behind her, and placed it in the middle of the photo of the two of them, and passionately wrote:
【A family of three.】
