“As far as I know, Jiang Wen wants to use ’99 Love Letters’ to enter the Paris
International Film Festival. His ambition is not only in the domestic market. He should be very confident in his movie. Unfortunately, your company’s resources in the past were too poor. If you had signed a contract with Jia Le earlier, I could have helped you get the female lead of this movie.” Ye Xuan’s tone was a little regretful.
Lu Zhen did not feel any regret. After all, she had not been reborn when this movie was filmed. Moreover, Lu Zhen was a very sober person. She wouldn’t be stubborn if it wasn’t hers. She would only grasp it if it was hers.
Ye Xuan thought for a moment and said, “However, the role you’re playing in the movie is quite interesting. Pan Miao’s company only said that you can’t appear during the publicity period, but they didn’t say that you can’t hype up the role of the ‘back-view goddess’. ”
Lu Zhen frowned and asked worriedly, “Creating hype? Is that good? Will it affect the movie negatively? Perhaps it will even make Director Jiang Wen dislike me.”
Lu Zhen really wanted to rely on her own strength to make a name for herself in the film industry. To be honest, she didn’t like hype.
Ye Xuan smiled. “No, Director Jiang Wen won’t mind. If he minded this, he wouldn’t have chosen you to act in this role at all. Your appearance and reputation far exceed the female lead, Pan Miao. Whether you want to keep a low profile or not, when the movie is released, you will definitely be compared to Pan Miao by the audience. Instead of reacting passively, it’s better to take the initiative to make a plan early. You don’t have to worry about this matter.
Leave it to me.”
Since Ye Xuan said this, Lu Zhen would not reject it, so she nodded. “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
Since Ye Xuan could bring an ordinary Guan Yun to the status of an international A-list movie star, Lu Zhen naturally would not doubt Ye Xuan’s ability.
“The third thing.” Ye Xuan looked at Lu Zhen with a complicated gaze. “How has your relationship been recently?”
Lu Zhen was stunned for a moment before she immediately sat up straight.
“What relationship state? Are you talking about men? The rumors on the
Internet are all fake. I’m just a single dog now.”
Ye Xuan made a gesture to let Lu Zhen relax and said, “A suitable scandal is also beneficial to you. The movie ‘The Great Wall of War’ will only be broadcast at the end of the year. You don’t have any works in the past few months, so it’s not bad to rely on scandals to maintain your popularity.”
Lu Zhen shook her head slowly. “Ghost is my friend. I don’t want to use him to hype things up.”
“However, you can’t control the netizens’ thoughts. You might as well use this misunderstanding to increase your popularity.” Ye Xuan looked at her watch and stood up. “Alright, let’s stop here for today. I’m going to the company. Think about these few things carefully. Also, I’m not telling you this to discuss with you. I’m just informing you that you’re now Jia Le’s artist and can only agree with the company’s nurturing plan for you.”
Lu Zhen nodded helplessly. “I understand.”
Although Jia Le was much better than Lu He’s company, the artists here still had to follow the rules of market competition. Lu Zhen had only come to Jia Le to change to another place to continue being a product in the entertainment industry. She did not have much freedom to do what she wanted.
At least not yet.
Perhaps when she became an international superstar like Guan Yun, she would have the right to choose.
Lu Zhen stood up, put on the hood of her down jacket, and walked out of the cafe with Ye Xuan.
The days without a work schedule passed quickly. The production team of “Let’s Go Together” informed Lu Zhen on Thursday night that the official filming was on Friday and asked her to prepare in advance.
The next morning, Lu Zhen packed her things and filled a small suitcase. She bought a plane ticket to the filming location and prepared to leave.
Xiaoxiao looked at the luggage and said worriedly, “Sister Zhenzhen, why did you only bring so little? Is it enough? You don’t even have a few sets of clothes.” Lu Zhen smiled. “It’s enough. I’m going to record a show, not really travel.”
“By the way, the production team has adopted an online live-stream method this time. Sister Zhenzhen, you must pay more attention in the show. Don’t make any mistakes and let those black-hearted fans find an opportunity to mock you.” Xiaoxiao revealed a worried expression. “But if you want to be a butler, no matter how I think about it, it won’t be so easy.”
“It’s okay. Do you think I’m afraid of being scolded? I won’t be discussed if I’m not popular. I’m not afraid of those people hating me.” Lu Zhen shrugged and smiled indifferently..
