Eunuch, do you really know these martial arts?
Chapter 372 Wei Zheng's Choice
What they care about more is the opportunity to turn the tide.
That's why I heard that Jiang Nian, who is now a sensation online and has even become an international star, a top-tier celebrity, personally endorsed this drama.
How could they not find it interesting?
They're practically begging Wei Zheng to give them a role now.
Even if it's just one shot.
They're even willing to pay money to buy roles and perform for free.
Some people even wanted to pay extra to join the group.
And that is indeed the case.
Wei Zheng was in his office, having just kept the people outside out so he could focus on his work and analyze the script properly, and before he could even think about how to explain the situation to Tang Youyou, his phone suddenly rang:
"Ding ding ding..."
Wei Zheng was puzzled and completely baffled:
"Who would call me at this time?"
When Wei Zheng saw that it was an unfamiliar number, he was shocked.
The phone number listed here is a completely new number that I haven't saved in my contacts.
And the phone call address was even in this huge city of Beijing!
"When did I come to know such a person?"
That shouldn't be the case!
"Ding ding ding..."
Suddenly, several more phone call pop-ups appeared, all from unfamiliar numbers in Beijing.
Wei Zheng was even more bewildered:
"what happened?
Could my phone number have been leaked?
Or is there some promotional activity they want to offer me?
But that shouldn't be the case, I don't have any large debts!
Driven by doubt, Wei Zheng still followed his habit of answering the phone and connected, tentatively asking:
"Hello, who is this?"
All that could be heard from the other end was a clear, melodious voice, like that of a mature woman, instantly soothing and pleasant to the ear, as sweet as a silver bell:
"Hello, are you Professor Wei Zheng?"
"teacher?"
Wei Zheng's eyes lit up, and he straightened up ramrod straight, his heart pounding with excitement:
"I never thought I'd be called 'teacher' one day!"
That's giving them way too much face!
Wei Zheng nodded sheepishly and said:
"It's me, who are you?"
"It's good that it's Teacher Wei Zheng. We'd like to cooperate with you."
I heard you're filming a new show called "iPartment". I wonder if it would be convenient for one of our characters to be inserted into it?
Rest assured, we guarantee it.
If he joins the production team, we'll bring a 100 million yuan investment with us!
I heard that you, Mr. Wei Zheng, are short of funds, is that right?
how about it?
Just give him a role.
And he/she must be the main character.
Upon hearing the woman's last few words, Wei Zheng was completely stunned, his eyes filled with shock:
Am I dreaming?
"This must be an auditory hallucination!"
Without thinking, Wei Zheng slapped himself hard across the face. In an instant, his face turned bright red, and a clear red handprint appeared on his face.
The searing pain made Wei Zheng grimace.
But then his eyes filled with surprise:
"real!
It's true!
The next second, Wei Zheng suppressed his impulse and greed and became calm.
He can't just agree to give someone the lead role.
A resolute glint flashed in Wei Zheng's eyes as he spoke earnestly:
"I'm sorry, thank you for your sponsorship, but I need to think about it some more."
"what?
Hey hey!
We can discuss this further…
Before the woman on the other end could finish speaking, Wei Zheng hung up the phone, and a busy tone came through the receiver.
Meanwhile, in an office of a top-tier, opulent high-rise building in Beijing, a woman dressed in elite attire, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, exuded exceptional elegance.
Every smile and frown revealed the demeanor of a strong woman.
I saw the phone that had been hung up on.
Her previously icy expression revealed a hint of surprise, and for a moment she seemed dazed as she said:
"My phone... got hung up on???"
"Heh, so someone dares to hang up on me."
The woman was both amused and exasperated.
For a moment, I didn't even know whether to laugh or cry.
"For so many years, who has dared to disobey me?"
From small to large.
Who doesn't have to watch their step and see what I'm doing?
I have now become the most outstanding career woman among my peers and even men can't compare to me.
Even the most famous person in the business world, who made his own way in the world and is known as 'Lei Jun', is the strongest.
He is now considered a top-tier figure.
But his evaluation of me was always 'a heroine among women'.
So over the years, there has never been anything I couldn't accomplish.
Some people even consider it an honor to hear me speak.
They can do things for me.
That was their supreme glory.
But now my phone has been hung up on!
Until now.
She was still somewhat in a dreamlike state when suddenly she became interested:
"Interesting. It's someone that Teacher Jiang Nian favors. He's quite interesting."
"You dare to refuse a hundred million? I'd like to see who you are!"
After saying that, the woman pressed a button on the table.
"Ring ring".
A bell rang.
next second.
A sound came through her hands-free phone.
That was a woman's voice, equally clear and melodious, like the sound of silver bells:
"Mr. Li, what can I do for you?"
"Find out the background of the person I just spoke to. I need the results as soon as possible, all the information, remember, all of it!"
The woman emphasized "all".
A cold voice came from the other end, followed by the "beep beep" of the call being disconnected.
The woman was leaning back in the chair with her arms crossed over her chest.
Looking up someone's information is actually very simple.
If you can access the internal police superintendent's system, enter this phone number.
His life story and background will be revealed in the next second.
They could even find out how many times he went to the toilet, which was absolutely terrifying.
There are no secrets in this world anymore, unless the other party has special means of hiding them.
However, this level of privacy information is impossible to obtain without top-tier methods.
And naturally, she would not do anything illegal.
Her method involves using hacking to analyze and search for information online, or piecing together fragmented information to create positive information about the person.
Basically, it can achieve 80% similarity with the most complete information about this person in the police superintendent's system, with almost no errors.
And what if the other party is an ordinary person?
The similarity of this information is almost 100%. This is the power of her public relations system; however, even investigating ordinary people usually takes fifteen minutes.
Meanwhile, at the film and television base, after hanging up the woman's call, Wei Zheng still couldn't help but mutter a few words of frustration:
“Who is it?
He was so arrogant, I was actually intimidated by him just now!
Do scammers these days just casually offer a hundred million?
Even when lying, you should at least prepare a draft!
The more he thought about it, the more ridiculous it seemed; he had actually been tempted just now.
One hundred million?
He didn't believe it; no matter how good a film is, it's not worth 100 million!
He knows his own level perfectly well; at his level, even a million would be too much.
If the woman had just said she would give one million...
He'll probably have to think about it carefully. One hundred million?
No need to think about it.
Stopping thinking about these useless questions, Wei Zheng picked up his phone and found Tang Youyou's number.
The most urgent task is to finalize the casting of the female lead as soon as possible. As for other matters, there's no need to waste any more time, lest things get complicated.
"Ding ding ding."
Meanwhile, in the crew of "Invincible East Wind", Xu Ke was filming the remaining scenes with the big boss and Brother Tian.
It's worth noting that they had already filmed many important scenes before Jiang Nian personally participated in the filming.
But later it was discovered that Tang Youyou had good acting skills.
There are even some particularly outstanding parts.
They suddenly realized: they had actually rejected such a promising talent before!
Until Tang Youyou began her performance.
They then realized that he was a genius, a talented actor with enormous potential.
At such a young age, he possesses acting skills that rival those of veteran actors, delivering profound and nuanced performances that seem to bring a character to life.
This level is the realm that countless actors dream of, and many people spend their entire lives trying to reach it.
But Tang Youyou was able to do it effortlessly.
However, this is only possible if Jiang Nian is present and provides guidance; otherwise, it is difficult to achieve.
But even so.
Her acting skills are already very strong and awe-inspiring.
So when Xu Ke, with his unique perspective and understanding of martial arts films, saw Tang Youyou's performance come to life, he immediately realized that this kind of heroic, agile, and sharp-eyed female knight-errant was actually more eye-catching than male knight-errant in some ways.
Because people admire the strong, even men, deep down admire the strong, especially female knights-errant and strong women.
It is common knowledge that women's physiological structure is not as good as men's.
However, when women display heroism and are even more capable than men, it will resonate with a greater audience.
So originally, Tang Youyou's role was extremely small, just a few shots. But Xu Ke made the decision on the spot, and Brother Tian also agreed to Xu Ke's request, deciding to give Tang Youyou several more scenes to film alone.
They even planned to film several more scenes focusing on her character's life.
If the response is good.
That would allow us to start a new drama series for Tang Youyou.
This is a gift of data from God, a real windfall!
If they don't want it.
That would be so foolish!
At this moment, an ancient-style platform has been set up on site, made of several stone pillars.
Tang Youyou stood atop a stone pillar, her expression aloof and her eyes indifferent, looking down at the people below.
She stood on the floor for no more than a meter, yet her eyes seemed to look at ants a hundred meters away. This aloof demeanor left everyone present speechless.
Everyone held their breath, silently giving her a thumbs up, filled with admiration.
Especially with permission at this moment, I was overjoyed:
"Good! Great!"
As a director and a veteran actor.
He knows it all too well.
Standing a meter above the ground, one must imagine the expression on one's face as one looks down at a hundred-meter cliff, with one's opponents on the ground appearing as nothing more than ants. This is an extremely difficult thing to portray.
After all, Tang Youyou was just a woman, an ordinary person.
She had never actually been a knight-errant and didn't understand the mindset of one.
Therefore, everything can only be achieved through one's own imagination.
But Tang Youyou was able to express this artistic conception with ease.
"Pass!"
Xu Ke shouted excitedly.
Upon hearing "pass," Tang Youyou immediately breathed a sigh of relief, her expression shifting from tense to one of relief.
Even with a hint of relief, he patted his chest with lingering fear, the seriousness on his face melting away like ice and snow, and immediately laughed happily, asking with some shame:
"Director, is it alright?"
"No problem, proceed directly!"
"That's fantastic, Tang Youyou! Your acting is superb; you're destined to be a top actress!"
Xu Ke did not hold back his praise.
"Wow."
The audience gasped in surprise. Many of the other newcomers looked at Tang Youyou with envy and awe.
There are very few actors who can receive such praise from Xu Ke, let alone a new actor.
To date, they have only heard Xu Ke make this comment about Taylor Swift.
Tang Youyou was the second.
The thought couldn't help but pop into everyone's mind:
Is Tang Youyou going to become the next Best Actress?
Tang Youyou, on the other hand, was indeed a little surprised at this moment, followed by a burst of joy. After climbing down from the stone pillar, she excitedly clasped her hands together and quickly bowed to Xu Ke:
"Thank you, Director Xu!"
Then, with a silly grin, he said:
"These are all things that Teacher Jiang Nian taught me."
"Oh?
Did Teacher Jiang Nian teach you that?
That's normal!
No wonder your acting seemed so familiar; it always seemed to have a bit of Jiang Nian's influence. It turns out you two have a good relationship!
At the end, Xu Ke revealed a look of sudden realization, accompanied by a mischievous grin.
These words made Tang Youyou blush, but fortunately, she had been in this circle for a long time recently and had begun to get used to the teasing among everyone.
In fact, many of these jokes are veiled sarcasm. Everyone is wary of each other. No one really wants the people around them to be doing well; they all hope that the people around them will be destitute on the streets.
No one wants the other to be happy.
So what's most common here is that everyone uses a seemingly harmonious tone to say the most sarcastic things, all while pretending to be joking.
But everyone knew in their hearts that the other person was actually telling the truth, and was only pretending to smile so that they could quickly say "I was just kidding" if things got out of control.
Then they brushed it off.
It can be said that every place and every moment here is full of calculation.
Tang Youyou had long been accustomed to this environment and felt that the world was just like this.
Tang Youyou, having only been in society for such a short time, was not used to this environment at all.
But after spending some time with Jiang Nian, he realized that none of this would affect him at all.
Because she discovered that Jiang Nian consistently ignored the sarcastic remarks from those around him, which were full of envy and jealousy.
They didn't even bother to take it to heart.
In Jiang Nian's words:
"If you care about everything, wouldn't you just drive yourself crazy?" (End of Chapter)
