China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 57 A Mature Woman, A Real Man [100 Monthly Pass plus More]

"Sissy."

Aunt Liu entered the house on high heels and yelled first.

"Mom, you're back!"

Hearing the response from his daughter's familiar voice from upstairs, a smile appeared on his face.

He took off his high heels, put on cotton slippers on his feet wrapped in black stockings, put the handbag aside, and walked towards Liu Yifei's room.

"Sissy, Changchang, have you eaten yet?"

Seeing that Shu Chang was there, Aunt Liu had a warm smile on her face.

"Hello, Auntie, I've had dinner with Sissy." Shu Chang smiled politely.

"Yeah, we ordered food at the restaurant. Mom, why did you come back so late? Xiao Zhou has been waiting for you for a long time in the afternoon."

"I was talking about things in Huayi today, and something went wrong, so I came back a little late."

Aunt Liu saw that her daughter seemed to be holding a thin stack of A4 papers in her hand, and said with a smile, "Qi Qian, you mean Zhou Yutang? Is there anything he wants to do when he comes to see me?"

"I told you last time that Xiao Zhou wrote a movie script and plans to make a movie by himself."

Liu Yifei handed the script in her hand to Aunt Liu like offering a treasure, "Mom, look, this is it."

Aunt Liu reluctantly accepted the script, glanced at it a few times, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Zhou Yutang's own novel is an adaptation of the screenplay. It's a youth genre film. It seems that there has never been such a film in the mainland, right?"

Looking at it, Aunt Liu seemed to feel a little interesting again, so absorbed in it that she forgot to speak for a while.

She herself was born as a dancer, and she can be called a foodie of art, and she still has a certain appreciation ability.

Liu Yifei and Shu Chang looked at each other, and the two girlfriends secretly smiled.

They privately gave Zhou Yutang the nickname "Sniper Girl, Young Woman".

Seeing Aunt Liu like this, she seemed to be quite moved by Zhou Yutang's talent.

When Aunt Liu finished reading the script and put it down, Liu Tianxian's clear eyes gleamed with hope: "Mom, didn't you always want to arrange for me to make a movie? In Xiao Zhou's movie, he plays the male lead and I play the female lead. what do you think?"

"You play the heroine?"

Aunt Liu was a little bit tangled, she flipped through the script for a while, and thought for a long time before she spoke: "The story written by Xiao Zhou still looks very good, but"

"But what?"

Liu Yifei asked impatiently.

Aunt Liu shook her head lightly: "But the cost is too low. A small-scale film like this has limited influence. It may not be able to cause any splash in the entire film market."

After a pause, Aunt Liu seemed to be a little curious and said, "Didn't Xiao Zhou just act in a TV series? Why did he want to run to make a movie?"

"Xiao Zhou had a lot of ideas. At that time, the TV series "Want to See You" was written by him, and then he invested in it and starred in it. This movie is a new project of his studio."

"This TV series is very popular, so he can't just jump from TV series to movies right away?

Even you have filmed several TV series, and you have been settling for several years before you are ready to enter the big screen. How come Xiao Zhou has to film a few more TV series to accumulate popularity, right?This step is too big. "

Aunt Liu thought of something, smiled and shook her head: "Mom has read Xiao Zhou's reports and can understand his thoughts."

"Young people, young people who become famous and talented, always want to become famous. Xiao Zhou is too idealistic in doing things, and my mother thinks that he may fall this time."

"Mom, you don't like Xiao Zhou?"

Miss Liu glanced at Aunt Liu, feeling a little disappointed.

"I am very optimistic about Zhou Yutang. He is very talented and motivated. If he works hard, he will have a bright future."

"But you don't understand a lot of things. The reality is not that everything can be determined by self-improvement, especially in this circle, which also needs capital to operate. It's not as simple as he thought."

Aunt Liu grabbed the tail of the skirt, sat gracefully beside Liu Yifei and Shu Chang, and persuaded her earnestly: "Qi Qian, you and Xiao Zhou are friends, and if you have the opportunity, you will help mom persuade him, it's for his own good. "

"Oh."

Miss Liu nodded.

"After dealing with those people, I realized how deep the film industry is. Xiao Zhou is too young to grasp it."

"Ah."

Liu Yifei, who had listened to a lot of truth, lowered her head and answered sullenly.

Shu Chang next to her shook Liu Yifei's little hand, and she could feel that her best friend was in a depressed mood.

"Sissy, listen to mom, mom is from here."

"Besides, you are now focusing all your energy on "The King of Kung Fu". The first phase of training is over now, and there will be a second phase of special training. There is no schedule for this year."

Speaking of this, Aunt Liu's face was radiant: "This movie is an opportunity I have won for you with great difficulty. It has a large investment of hundreds of millions. You will play with international stars Li Lianjie and Jackie Chan. When the time comes If it is filmed, it will definitely be very popular, and it may even help you break into Hollywood in one fell swoop.”

"Well, I know mom, I will work hard."

Liu Yifei nodded.

She knew that her mother's dream was to break into Hollywood and make herself an international superstar.

But at this moment, Ms. Liu didn't think about such distant things in her mind.

She was only thinking about the story about the simple first love in those years.

Are youth and first love really so beautiful?

Ms. Liu actually didn't quite understand.

Because she went to the United States with her mother after finishing elementary school.

The education model there is very different from that in China.

Going to school focuses on freedom, and students from different ethnicities and countries form small groups in one class.

As a ten-year-old girl from the Celestial Dynasty, it is very difficult to carefully integrate into the environment, let alone experience the hazy and beautiful youth in the story.

But this does not prevent Ms. Liu from having a sensual and soft heart.

That youthful and beautiful feeling made her heart throb with longing.

Miss Liu would feel a pity if she missed this script, but she couldn't speak.

She has grown up.

I can understand that my mother is also standing in her position, and she has put a lot of effort into herself.

Talking to Hua Yi now about this movie, it is a super big production with a total investment of more than [-] million yuan. My mother has been busy and made a lot of favors in it, and the contract has already been signed.

The preliminary preparations for the crew have already been in place. In order for Ms. Liu to better perform the heroine's heroic feeling, the second stage of special training is about to begin!

Miss Liu's thoughts were mixed, she pursed her lips tightly, and picked up the phone:

"Xiao Zhou, you have to work hard, and I will work hard too."

..............................

open.

Drive towards the edge of the capital.

Roll down the windows.

After sending off senior sister Wang Jia, I walked around and walked downstairs to Sister Yuanyuan's community.

After observing for a while, Zhou Yutang parked the car without finding the eyeliner in ambush.

Standing under the street lamp, looking at the light on in the window of Gao Yuanyuan's house.

In fact, Sister Yuanyuan has a literary atmosphere in her bones.

Originally, Zhou Yutang said that she wanted to order a restaurant for a romantic meal, but she insisted that she might be photographed if she went out.

It's better to buy your own vegetables and cook them at home. The dishes you cook yourself are more delicious.

It's so sad.

Can this sister really cook?

Zhou Yutang didn't believe it.

I don't know if this sister will give the kitchen some.

About to go upstairs, the phone rang.

"Hi, Xiao Zhou."

Miss Liu spoke softly and softly.

"Ok?"

"sorry."

Miss Liu's little milk sounded a little apologetic.

"Aunt Liu is back?"

Zhou Yutang's voice was very calm.

He has no problem with EQ and IQ. He has already understood what Ms. Liu's "I'm sorry" means, which is expected.

puff!

I don't know which one it was, but there was the sound of cooking in a frying pan, and Zhou Yutang seemed to smell a burnt aroma.

"Well, Mom said..."

Liu Yifei on the phone didn't seem to know what to say, so she was silent for a while guiltily.

"It's okay, Shu Chang just joked and said casually in the afternoon, don't take it to heart."

Zhou Yutang's mood was as usual, without the slightest turmoil, and he chuckled cynically: "To be honest, I'm relieved, and I want to thank Aunt Liu."

"Why do you say that?"

"In this movie, I invested all my wife in it. I really let you act. The salary is too high, and the acting skills are not good. When the box office hits the market, you will have to pay for it. You will not be able to marry your wife in the future."

"You, you, you are talking nonsense! What's wrong with my acting skills!?"

Liu Tianxian has always been sensitive to the topic of his acting skills, like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, Xiao Naiyin was a little embarrassed.

This girl's idol is Audrey Hepburn, and she has always dreamed of being a good actress in her heart, and she is working hard for it.

"Well, very good, very good, let's not talk about it, I feel that the kitchen at home is going to catch fire."

"You're talking nonsense again."

Liu Yifei curled her lips, expressing that she was not fooled.

But Zhou Yutang didn't seem to have any interest in chatting with her, so he said a few words.

hang up the phone.

Zhou Yutang's original cynical smile subsided instantly.

Aunt Liu is a mature woman, and he is also a realistic man.

In fact, I didn't have much hope for Liu Tianxian to play the heroine, I just tried to ask.

Liu Tianxian currently has a big movie project in his hands.

With a large investment of more than [-] million yuan, her schedule for this year is almost here.

Liu Tianxian is one of the candidates, and Zhou Yutang still has a plan.

He didn't go upstairs immediately, he stood there thinking about something, turned around and opened the car door, picked up the cigarette case from the storage box, and smoked a cigarette.

Put it on your nose and smell it.

Then the lighter grinding wheel makes a light scraping sound.

A beam of fire jumped up.

Zhou Yutang shielded himself from the wind with his hands, lit a cigarette, and took a deep puff.

The cigarette butt sparks brightly.

Gently exhaling smoke from his mouth, it floated like a white dragon, covering his face.

I just stood downstairs and took a few breaths.

Then press to put out the cigarette butt.

A bright smile appeared on his face again.

Turn around and go upstairs in three steps, one step at a time, like a wild horse running wild.

..............................

"Sister Yuanyuan, are you sure you did this?"

"How is it? Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

Seeing the surprised expression on Zhou Yutang's face who had just entered the door, Gao Yuanyuan smiled with a sense of accomplishment.

Both shock and surprise, but not necessarily joy.
Zhou Yutang sat at the dining table, facing the gentle sister who was looking at him with her cheeks in her hands and smiling, with a troubled expression on her face:

"Sister Yuanyuan, I don't seem too hungry, can I skip dinner?"

"No, I have been preparing since four o'clock, and it took a lot of effort to make the dish!"

Gao Yuanyuan shook her head again and again, the expression on her face said no discussion.

"If you eat this, you won't be admitted to the hospital, will you?"

Zhou Yutang complained in his heart, he was not at all as high-spirited as when he went upstairs.

In front of him was a bowl of white rice, on which he thoughtfully sprinkled a few sesame seeds.

There are several plates with blue stripes and white background on the dining table.

One plate contained what appeared to be tomato scrambled eggs.

The other plate was deep-fried prawns.

There is also a big bowl of soup that is so dark that no one can tell
Zhou Yutang's face was serious, and he seemed to be at a loss as to where to start.

"You try it."

I have to say that when a woman acted like a baby, she was very convincing, especially a mature and beautiful woman like Gao Yuanyuan acted like a baby, that was too convincing.

Zhou Yutang finally moved his chopsticks, and took a piece of tomato mixed with custard.

There are sour, sweet and salty, I really don't know how Gao Yuanyuan made such a dish.

Although the taste is not good, it can't be said to be unpalatable. There seems to be a limit to how to cook tomato scrambled eggs. Anyway, Zhou Yutang tasted the taste of pure fried tomato.

"How about it?"

Before he could swallow it, he heard Sister Yuanyuan asking impatiently, with a look of anticipation on his face.

Zhou Yutang didn't hesitate at all, gave a thumbs up, and praised: "Sister Yuanyuan, your cooking skills have been recognized by my young boss in Jiangsu Province. Why don't you change your career to be a chef? Open a restaurant in the future and designate it to be popular."

"What is it?"

Gao Yuanyuan looked at Zhou Yutang's big mouthfuls of rice, and showed her signature sweet smile with satisfaction, and couldn't help asking: "Is it really so delicious?"

"Haven't you tried it yourself?"

Zhou Yutang paused with his chopsticks, and his expression twitched.

"Tasted."

Gao Yuanyuan said embarrassingly: "I feel that the deep-fried prawns are a bit bland, and then I added a little more salt. How do you feel?"

Too much salt is added and it tastes salty.
Zhou Yutang swallowed the meal, his expression showed just the right surprise: "Not bad, it's a good meal!"

"Let's try the soup again."

Hearing Zhou Yutang's affirmative praise, Gao Yuanyuan was full of motivation, took a big spoon, scooped soup into a small bowl, and handed it to Zhou Yutang.

There are still oily flowers floating on the dark soup, and a few emerald green embellishments float unwillingly.

"What kind of soup is this?"

Zhou Yutang looked troubled.

It feels a bit like Pan Jinlian is feeding Dalang medicine.

"Spare ribs and lotus root soup, I heard that it is detoxifying and beautifying. I followed the online tutorial and simmered it slowly for several hours."

"Then why do you put wolfberries? Is this also taught in the tutorial?"

"Supplementary nutrition, what do you think?"

Da Meiyuan's voice was a little smug and charming.

"Quite creative."

"Then try it."

"."

Zhou Yutang drank up the soup to save face, and the two of them finished a fairly warm meal and cleaned up the dishes.

Then, Zhou Yutang naturally put his arms around Da Meiyuan and watched TV on the sofa. He got close to her hair, and could smell the orchid scent of a mature woman, and began to feel distracted.

Thinking about it is a bit outrageous.

Others call Jiangdong Xiao Wenhou, who is at the age of dragon and tiger, and sister Yuanyuan let him eat wolfberry for nourishment! ?

It doesn't make sense!

Tonight, he had to prove himself well!
"Sister Yuanyuan, let's talk about the script."

"Why are you in such a hurry, oops, go and see if the curtains are drawn?"

The next day, Gao Yuanyuan entered the group of "We Got Married", and Zhou Yutang's Jiangdong Film and Television Culture Studio also released the news that he was looking for a heroine for his first self-directed and self-acted film.

Soon, his small studio received several boxes of resumes.

"Brother Lin, why are there so many?"

Zhou Yutang rubbed his forehead and nodded.

There is also a man in his thirties in the studio. His name is Lin Liang. This is his brother from the Film Academy, and he is also the casting director he has found for this film project.

"There are still two boxes outside, and I haven't carried them in yet."

Lin Liang laughed and said, "You are so famous now, some people are planning to come to my side, and want to stuff people into the crew."

Casting directors in the industry have always had a good life. Although he is a grandson in front of the director, for those low-level actors who want to climb up, this is the "big man" they can get in touch with.

Because one sentence from him could very well decide the fate of a low-level actor, so he had to try his best to curry favor with him.

Although Zhou Yutang is making a small production movie, most of them are actresses who are waiting for the opportunity to emerge.

Especially having the opportunity to play with the popular young boy Zhou Yutang, this is enough to make many actresses break their heads.

Lin Liang was born in a film academy. He has been in this industry for nearly ten years. He has excellent professional ability and character quality. After tidying up the boxes, he asked, "What are the specific requirements for the selection of the heroine?"

"The heroine of this movie is set to be between 18 and 25 years old. She is required to have a pure and sweet appearance. She looks like a school girl at first glance. It is best to have a certain acting foundation."

Zhou Yutang thought for a while, and simply conveyed his thoughts to Lin Liang.

There are still several months before the filming starts, and he has plenty of time to choose the most suitable candidate.

Although it is the first film project that Jiangdong Studio does, Zhou Yutang doesn't do everything by himself, and does everything by himself.

Just these few boxes of resumes, it would take a lot of time to go through them one by one.

This is what professional casting directors do. They implement the specific requirements of the director, select actors who meet Zhou Yutang's ideas, and finally decide the final candidate through auditions.

Lin Liang nodded, took out a pen and paper to sketch a few times, wrote down the conditions mentioned by Zhou Yutang, and immediately started working.

Zhou Yutang took a look at his selection process, which was amazing.

What is professionalism?
Brother Lin first put an empty box underneath, holding a large stack of resumes in his strong left hand, staring at the resumes with his eyes, turning and scanning quickly like a radar, I don’t know if he can see clearly, anyway, his right hand seems to be down. Swipe as fast as a sliced ​​noodle.

Brush brush brush brush!
One resume after another fell like snowflakes into the empty box at the bottom.

This is the group of people who do not meet Zhou Yutang's conditions.

They may have sent this resume full of longing and hope, dreaming of being able to act with Zhou Yutang and become a hit, but unfortunately they woke up a little too soon, and even the resume was not put on Zhou Yutang's desk
Huh?
There is also a clever use of matte material resume.

Lin Liang swiped it a few times but didn't pass it, looked at it a few more times, and put this resume in the candidate section.

Zhou Yutang took it over and took a look.

Sit up straight.

His expression was slightly surprised.

　Monthly tickets plus more will be sent, continue to ask for tickets, there is no limit to add more!
