Abstract Art Award Winner

He always hangs out with young girls.

Zhou Le felt that he had become younger.

Although he also enjoys chatting with older people, after all, their experience is invaluable and makes conversations comfortable, the prerequisite is that the labels "Back to Field" and "Huang Lei" cannot appear at the same time.

However, after spending a lot of time with older people, I always feel like I'm starting to smell a bit like an old person.

Looking at Tian Xiwei, who was already fast asleep beside him, he recalled the crazy thing that had happened not long ago. Tian had said that he could only hold his breath for one minute, but he hadn't said that he could only do one set.

Moreover, Zhou Le always felt that Xiao Tian was only a half-finished product, whether she was filming or in her daily life, and only became the complete product when she put on a formal dress.

Over the years, Zhou Le has attended various events and met many female celebrities. In comparison, Xiao Tian is both generous and confident. Although everyone's dresses are meant to show off their figures, Xiao Tian, ​​despite having a youthful face, is not at all petty.

I just want to show off my beauty. As long as there's nothing inappropriate or revealing, and I'm not associated with anything pornographic, I'll always be as youthful as I am now.

Every step she takes carries a healthy beauty befitting her age.

As Zhou Le watched, he couldn't help but reach out and touch the other person's cheek; it was soft and gentle.

Xiao Tian seemed to feel the warmth from Zhou Le's hand, muttering incoherently, and reached out to pull Zhou Le's arm into her embrace.

When Zhou Le woke up early the next morning, he felt a little numb in his arm. When he looked down, he realized that his arm had been used as a pillow by the other person.

So he slowly pushed the other person's head up, then pulled his arm back. Even if he was physically strong, he couldn't withstand such a thing.

When I pulled it back, my entire biceps were covered in hair marks.

But when he checked the time, it was only a little past six o'clock. Thinking that he didn't have anything else to do during the day, he simply closed his eyes and fell asleep again.

Because he's been quite tired lately, he had a dream last night where he was rushing to film a movie, and Han Han said it was for a new film.

As a result, various problems arose along the way.

But later he discovered that his dream was actually a continuation. After finally arriving at the film crew, Han Han said that they were going to film the third installment of "Pegasus", which would be starring Lin Zhendong.

In the movie "Pegasus", Zhou Le plays Lin Zhendong.

At the same time, Han Han specially invited Tian Xiwei to play the female lead.

The story is about Lin Zhendong, who had a girlfriend who was also a race car driver before he became one. Today, he comes to visit his girlfriend and takes the opportunity to ride in her car and experience the feeling of racing.

The car has a malfunction, and I don't know if it's a problem with the transmission or the engine. The car keeps lurching forward while driving.

But to appease his girlfriend, he could only keep saying, "It's so fast, I can't take it anymore."

"So exciting."

"really not bad."

As a result, the more he talked, the faster Tian Xiwei drove in the driver's seat, and the faster the car drove, the more violent Gu Yong became.

Gu Yongzhe suddenly woke up and found that Tian Xiwei was indeed trying her best to drive.

Zhou Le couldn't help but gasp, thinking to himself that at least he wasn't leaking oil.

What kind of dream were you having just now? Was it one of those kinds of dreams?

Zhou Le instinctively gripped the steering wheel to steady himself: "What? When did I start dreaming?"

"You were talking in your sleep, I heard you perfectly clearly. You're not usually like this, just like you told me before, 'Speak less and do more,' but you just said some really outrageous things."

Zhou Le instantly realized that he had actually said the things he had said in his dream.

"Yes, I'm still getting used to you doing it this way."

Zhou Le's long, straight black hair fell down, making his chest feel a little itchy.

"But I like it very much."

After that, overtaking on curves and easily attacking and defending are self-evident.

However, they still talked about work afterwards, and Tian Xiwei had already finished filming her scenes for this year.

The only work booked for next year is some variety shows.

"We still need to find some more projects to film."

Zhou Le leaned against the headboard and pondered for a while.

"I think Daylight Entertainment released a notice before; I remember it was for a period drama. I'll take a look."

As he spoke, he took out his phone, opened the Noon Sunshine group chat, and started searching.

Although the artist management department has been disbanded, Zhou Le is still considered a senior partner of Daylight Entertainment. Moreover, Daylight Entertainment is his former employer, so naturally Zhou Le is still present in those groups. However, when not in use, they are all set to receive message notifications but not send reminders.

After they separated, Zhou Le looked around and quickly found the one.

The historical drama series "Qing Ping Yue," set in the Song Dynasty, is short of actors. Suitable candidates and resources can be recommended. Relevant resumes can be sent to ***.

Below is a list of actors, but the positions for the male and female leads are not listed.

The actors had obviously been chosen. Zhou Le thought for a moment and then made a phone call.

"Sister, I'm Zhou Le."

"Oh, Le, what made you suddenly decide to call me?"

"Hi, I just missed you, and it's been a long time since we last contacted each other, so I'm giving you a call."

"Haha, you're telling me this? Alright, what's up?"

"Sister, you have such keen eyes that you immediately saw what I was looking for. I saw in the group chat that Daylight Entertainment is going to release another period drama set in the Song Dynasty, called 'Serenade of Peaceful Joy.' I've been thinking about it for a while now and I feel that the role of Zhao Huirou is quite suitable for Tian Xiwei. So I wanted to ask if we could give her a chance to audition."

"Tian Xiwei, I know she's very popular this year, with two hit dramas in a row. But the role you mentioned is the second female lead. We've already decided on Jiang Shuying for the lead role because her temperament is more suitable. But Tian Xiwei's status has also risen now. Would she be willing to take the second lead role?"

"Sure, Tian Xiwei doesn't care about the billing order as long as the role is good."

"Okay, when do you have time to come over? If you're interested, you can do it before the New Year. You don't need to prepare resumes or anything. We're all family here, no need for that."

"Okay, thanks sis, but you should still prepare a resume, it'll be more straightforward that way."

"Whatever you say, but I also think she seems quite suitable for the role. Anyway, come and see for yourself. Besides, the director is someone you know, Zhang Kaizhou."

"Okay, let's go tomorrow then."

“Okay, I’ll help you make the contact and arrange the audition. It just so happens that President Hou and Director Zhang are here too.”

"Thank you, sister."

"You're welcome. If you get the job, just treat me to a meal later." "Of course you have to treat me, even if I don't get the job. But sister, do you think Xiaotian has a high chance of getting in?"

The other party naturally couldn't directly tell Zhou Le about the likelihood of the project over the phone, but since they had a good relationship in the past, they still indirectly said, "This drama is currently a joint production of Daylight Entertainment, Zhonghui Film & Television, and Tencent Video. I don't know how big it is; we'll have to wait and see."

Hearing this, Zhou Le understood that with Tencent Video, the probability of success would increase by at least 30%.

"Okay, then you go ahead with your work, see you tomorrow."

After making the call, Zhou Le breathed a sigh of relief.

"You have a good chance of getting the role of the second female lead in a period drama produced by Daylight Entertainment. I'll take you to audition tomorrow."

"Brother Le, you're so popular! You got the audition sorted out with just one phone call."

Hearing Xiaotian's praise, Zhou Le couldn't help but smile.

"Whether you have face or not depends on your ability. If I didn't run a company or have relationships with those directors, I probably wouldn't have much face anyway."

"Brother Le, I'm so lucky to have signed with you. I'm getting all the good scripts."

In any case, Tian Xiwei maximized the emotional value.

"Why do you have such a sweet tongue?"

"Of course, otherwise why would I call myself Xiaotian?"

They returned to Beijing that same day, and Zhou Le also received part of the script from Daylight Entertainment.

The two of them didn't go anywhere; they just stayed in the house for a whole day and night, pondering things.

"I think you should be able to land this role. After all, Daylight Entertainment is always strict in its selection of actors, and sometimes they use ordinary people. As long as you can bring out your strength, you should be able to get the role next year."

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Tian Xiwei raised her hand in salute again to show her determination.

They chatted before going to bed that night.

"But what do you do when you have free time lately? Watch TV series, huh?"

"Hehe, no, I was just afraid that my sister would come to my place and I wouldn't be able to visit you. Actually, I've been reading novels in the evenings when I have nothing to do lately."

"What novels have you been reading lately?"

"The book I recently read is called 'Love and Redemption,' which is my favorite one I've read recently. I often read novels like this, but most of them involve mutual torment between the male and female leads. However, this one focuses on tormenting the male lead, so it's more enjoyable to read."

"I see. Then we might be watching different types of shows, but I'll take a look later."

The next day, Zhou Le took Tian Xiwei to the headquarters of Noon Sunshine. He first introduced Tian Xiwei to some of the senior executives with whom he had a good relationship. After they finished their meeting, they prepared for the audition.

But today seemed to be the day Noon Sunshine was supposed to arrange auditions, and after waiting here for a while, Zhou Le saw many familiar faces.

Yu Entai was supposed to come here next year to film her own movie, and she never expected that the other party would come here to audition for a role.

"Isn't this Director Zhou? You were the male lead in 'Serenade of Peaceful Joy'?"

"I'm not going up; I mainly came with Xiaotian."

"Oh, I thought we could work together on two films in a row. What a pity. I really admire Director Zhou's acting skills."

"You're too kind, brother. You are the true master, and I am at most a junior student."

A little while later, Zhou Le saw Zhang Benyu again.

Another actor I'll be working with next year.

Moreover, Zhang Benyu is also one of the screenwriters for next year's film.

There wasn't much small talk when acquaintances met. After a hug and a brief chat, Zhou Le sent the person inside. But a little while later, Zhang Tianai arrived as well.

Zhou Le could only continue to explain that he wasn't going to try it, but was just bringing Xiao Tian over to take a look.

Zhou Le greeted acquaintances one after another, which made a female actress next to him feel a chill.

She had clearly heard Zhou Le say that he was going to help Tian Xiwei get the second female lead role, but she was also here to audition for the role.

If it were someone of similar caliber competing, she wouldn't be afraid, but Tian Xiwei is different. She's the female lead in two hit dramas this year, and if she lands another phenomenal role, she'll be among the top stars.

Moreover, Tian Xiwei is backed by Zhou Le.

Anyone in the entertainment industry knows that Zhou Le used to work for Daylight Entertainment, and he's still the lead actor in their latest production, "Like a Flowing River."

After chatting for a while, the actors went inside to prepare for a meeting. After the meeting, they went in to audition in order. Zhou Le was standing outside alone and was a little bored, so he went online to search for the novel that Tian Xiwei had mentioned yesterday.

Upon opening it, he discovered that the novel had even been published as a physical book.

He clicked in and took a look. Although it wasn't his type, the story was quite good. After thinking for a moment, Zhou Le called Su Yingxia.

"Xiao Su, I recently came across a really good book. Could you help me find out if the copyright for this book has been sold?"

Which one?

Zhou Le mentioned the book title and author, and Su Yingxia immediately went to inquire about it.

About twenty minutes later, the call was returned.

"I inquired, and the copyright hasn't been sold yet. Brother Le, are you interested? If you are, I can go and discuss it."

"Let's talk about it. We do have some ideas in that regard. After we finished 'Story of Yanxi Palace,' the returns were quite good. And since the company doesn't have any TV series investments next year, we can use this as a buffer."

"Okay, I'll contact them right away. But Brother Le's book was quite popular back then, so the price probably won't be low. Normally, you can get the copyright for some books for a few hundred thousand, but this one will probably cost around 200 to 500."

"It's okay, you can go ask first, the price is negotiable."

Su Yingxia knew that Zhou Le wanted to produce a work for Tian Xiwei, so it would be best to secure the contract.

Zhou Le stayed for about half an hour before Tian Xiwei came out first, since she was the second female lead when she auditioned for the role.

"How about it?"

Zhou Le asked in a low voice.

Tian Xi looked around and said, "I got the role. After they asked me questions and I performed two scenes, Director Zhang and President Hou talked to me and told me that I got the role because my performance was better than the previous actor who auditioned."

Next, we can discuss the salary; once we've agreed on it, we can sign the contract directly.

"Okay, then let your Sister Su come later. She used to work for Noon, so it'll be easier for her to negotiate the price." (End of Chapter)
