Quick Transmigration: The Divine-Looking Host is Always Pampered by a Powerful Boss
Chapter 110 On the Popularity of National Child Stars 3
After passing the audition, the matter of terminating the contract was put on the agenda.
The client's contract with the company was about to expire when he came of age. Later, he failed the audition, and some inexplicable negative information appeared online. The company wanted to renew the contract at the original price on the grounds of reputational damage.
She signed with Yueying at the age of six, only acted in one play, and had a very low price tag. She was coaxed into signing a twelve-year contract.
So-called renewal at the original price is even worse than renewal at a lower price.
Unfortunately, the client was embroiled in scandals at the time and was forced to renew the contract at the original price.
Chu Zhuo remained adamant about not renewing his contract, and the company attempted to pressure him by stirring up conflict among fans. Strangely, this backfired, making the "mommy fans" even more loyal. Ultimately, unable to resolve the situation, both parties signed a termination agreement.
Not long after, Xiong Man also terminated her contract with the company.
Just as the two were planning to open their own independent studio, Jiayuan Entertainment Company approached them.
As a long-established entertainment company, Jiayuan is known for treating its artists well and offering relatively lenient contracts.
Upon receiving the message, Xiong Man turned to Chu Zhuo: "Xiao Le, did Jia Yuan contact you before you terminated your contract?"
Chu Zhuo said, "No, this is also the first time I've had any interaction with them."
The two were invited to the Jiayuan Building, and Xiong Man had only one request: "I want to continue taking care of Yue Chuzhuo."
The person in charge of Jiayuan nodded: "Of course."
After reviewing her own contract, Xiong Man looked at it for Chu Zhuo, and realized something was wrong: "Are you sure you didn't give me the wrong one? Although our Chu Zhuo is indeed very talented, he just turned 18 and has never played a lead role before. Are you sure this contract is for him?"
The person in charge smiled gently: "That's right. I heard that Mr. Yue passed the audition for 'Nightmare for Me.' This drama has a big IP and high viewership. I believe that with Mr. Yue's acting skills, he will create even greater wealth for Jiayuan. The S-level rating is Jiayuan's gift to Mr. Yue."
Xiong Man still felt something was wrong, but there were no hidden clauses in the contract, so she signed her name.
Just like in the drama, Deng Haoran hired online trolls to smear Chu Zhuo, but the money he spent didn't amount to anything; instead, the negative publicity ended up backfiring on him.
The fact that they could raise someone as narrow-minded as Deng Haoran, who abused his family's resources and easily ruined an ordinary person's life, cannot withstand scrutiny.
Chu Zhuo casually reported Deng Haoran's family company for tax evasion and money laundering, leaving the other party too preoccupied to deal with their own problems.
When filming began, he appeared with a colorful little bird perched on his shoulder.
The little bird stood firmly on my shoulder, completely still, and was extremely obedient.
After the opening ceremony, everyone curiously gathered around.
"Lele, is this your pet bird? It's so beautiful!"
"Is that a parrot? Oh, its tail is up! Does it understand that we're praising it? What a human-like bird!"
"Lele, may I touch your little bird?"
The boy had bright eyes and white teeth, and was lively and cheerful. Instead of addressing him as "teacher" as is common in the entertainment circle, everyone called him "mommy fans."
Chu Zhuo touched the back of her hand to her shoulder: [001, do you want to play with them?]
001 flapped its wings, its claws slipping into Chu Zhuo's hand: [Host, watch how 001 wins over these people and makes you the most popular person in the entire crew.]
Chu Zhuo didn't dampen its spirits: "As long as you're having fun with them."
A bold girl reached out her hand, and 001 moved it again. The girl was overjoyed: "Wow, you're so smart! You're not shy at all! Did your owner greet you beforehand?"
"Lele, what's your little bird's name?"
"Such an obedient little bird must have a very clever name, right?"
Chu Zhu chuckled: "Call him Chongming."
Everyone called out "Chongming" to 001, and 001 obliged by letting out a cry.
Xie Linze quietly entered the venue and silently observed the boy being surrounded by a group of people.
Once the crowd dispersed, he seized the opportunity and stepped forward, saying, "For the first scene we're filming today, come and rehearse with me."
A group of staff members stared at the suddenly appearing man with a strange look. He was tall with long legs, wearing a black mask, and had narrow, calm eyes. He seemed very aloof.
She has an outstanding presence like an actress, yet she dresses very casually. When did such a person join the film crew?
Everyone watched with doubt as Chu Zhuo was led away by the other party.
Chu Zhuo was taken to a less crowded place.
Xie Lingce looked down at the boy's still somewhat bewildered face with restrained eyes, feeling an irresistible itch in his heart, and said gently, "Did I scare you?"
Chu Zhu shook her head, pointing to the mask on his face: "Are you the author of this novel, Bi Hui?"
Oh right, they don't know each other yet.
We only added each other on WeChat through the crew's WeChat group, and the only time we actually met was on the day of the audition.
Xie Linze removed his mask, and fearing the other person might find it abrupt, he acknowledged Bi Hui's name for the time being: "It's me."
Since the reason for bringing people over was to rehearse, Xie Linze didn't waste any words and went straight to the point, explaining the protagonist's mindset.
Chu Zhuo studied diligently and quickly got to work on his first shoot.
Xie Lince sat beside the monitor like a Buddha statue, staring intently at the boy on the screen.
With superb acting skills, accurate emotional transitions, and perfect attention to detail, he is a natural-born actor.
After the scene ended, the makeup artist touched up the makeup of the opposing actor.
Director Liu was practically held in place by Xie Lince, and after yelling "Cut!", a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead: "What are your thoughts, Editor Xie? Do we need to go through it again?"
He himself was very satisfied, but the author of the original novel might have had a different understanding?
Xie Lingce frowned slightly: "The details were well controlled. Xu Yongnian was struggling in the middle part, torn between two emotions. Chu Zhuo acted very well, with genuine emotion. Why do we need to go through it again?"
Director Liu, who had played the clown for a moment, said: "...Oh, I see. You kept staring at me because you thought I wasn't satisfied."
Xie Linze thought to himself that if he wasn't satisfied, he would just leave. But then he changed the subject and said directly, "No, I'm very satisfied with Le Chuzhuo. Not only is his portrayal of Xu Yongnian very fitting, but also..."
It matches the kind of girl I'm attracted to.
It only takes a moment to understand one's own heart, and all the troubles of this period can be traced back to their source after we meet again.
The last few words were spoken softly, and Director Liu didn't hear them clearly: "What else?"
Xie Lin glanced at him sideways: "It's none of your business."
Director Liu: "..."
After filming the morning's scenes, 001, who had been wandering around outside, ran back on time, picked up a towel in its beak, and flew towards Chu Zhuo, who was walking towards the next scene: [Host wipes sweat.]
The staff gasped in surprise.
"Wow, I really want to ask Lele how she trained the bird; it's so smart!"
"Damn, what an amazing bird! I'm so envious."
"Birds are so well-behaved. My grandpa raised a myna bird, and it chatted all day long like it was going to work. It would spit at anyone who passed by. If you taught it to say 'Welcome,' it would kill it. It's so happy to curse people."
"Lele played a role when he was a child, the childhood version of the prince of the northern frontier. The character was someone who could train eagles from a young age. The little boy wore a Mongolian hat from the grasslands and looked very cool. I was immediately impressed by Lele's handsomeness."
"Sisters share the same love! Lele has grown up to be exactly the same size as when she was little. It feels like we're raising her online."
"I'm already on my way to cry just thinking about Lele's fate."
There were many moms at the scene.
Chu Zhuo wiped away the sweat and put the towel back in its place.
The crew's lunchbox included two meat dishes, three vegetable dishes, a large chicken leg, and a soup made with radish and pork bones. The director shouted through a megaphone, "Eat and drink well for the first meal after filming starts, and then you all need to speed things up!"
Chu Zhuo's new assistant hadn't arrived yet, so he turned to get a lunchbox. Xie Linze stopped him and asked, "I made too much food. Do you want to eat with me? There's steamed pork ribs, braised lion's head meatballs, and scrambled eggs with shrimp."
Just hearing the name makes it sound delicious, and Chu Zhuo declared resolutely, "I want it!"
