Chapter 276 Sun Li, you don’t want to either.
“Uh”
This request is embarrassing for Sun Li, but she just filmed “Sweet Honey” with Deng Chao, and their relationship The relationship is so strong that it's really hard to refuse the other person.
In addition, she also knew that Deng Chao now wanted to develop into the film industry, and the film directed by Wang Shu was an art film that hit the three major European awards.
If Deng Chao can play a role in it, it will be of great help to him.
Then he pursed his lips and said, "Okay, I'll give Director Wang a call later to talk about this."
Deng Chao heard Sun Li say it was a phone call and answered with a smile: "Doesn't it seem insincere to just call Director Wang and mention this matter?"
"After all, Director Wang is a great director, and we want to get the audition qualification."
" In the end, it was just a phone call, as if to inform the other party, not like asking someone else to do something."
When Sun Li heard this, she felt a strange feeling in her heart, and she silently complained. We want to get the audition, but you want to get it.
However, she didn’t want to disappoint Deng Chao, so she followed his words and asked, “What do you think we should do?” How about you ask Director Wang to have dinner together and then mention this matter to him, which will appear more sincere. "
This is the truth, and this is how things are done.
After all, asking others to give you a chance and not even treating me to a meal is unjustifiable.
Just
Sun Li was silent for a moment, and asked with even more strangeness in her heart: "Will you come with me?"
"I'm not in the capital now. I have work to do, so I can't go." Deng Chao said with a smile. , "Besides, it would be embarrassing for me to do this kind of thing."
"It's better for you to go there. If it works, forget it. If it doesn't, forget it."
Sun Li knew in her heart that Deng Chao I really wanted to have this opportunity, so I suppressed the strange emotions in my heart and said with a smile: "Okay, I will call Director Wang later and ask him if he has time."
"You I also know that Director Wang is probably very busy and may not be able to spare the time.”
This is to inoculate Deng Chao, telling him that it may not be as he wishes.
At this moment, she thought a lot.
Given her private relationship with Wang Shu, if they eat alone, something will inevitably happen.
If she rejected Wang Shu, then she would be embarrassed to mention Deng Chao's audition.
If you don’t refuse, it’s really not good.
I can only hope that nothing happens.
But she knew in her heart that this was impossible.
"It's okay. If Director Wang really doesn't have time, then just talk about it on the phone. Regardless of whether it works or not, we can invite Director Wang to dinner in the future." Deng Chao answered with a smile.
"If Director Wang has time, you have to treat him to a meal. This will show your sincerity."
Sun Li also knows that they are the ones who have requests, and this is how they should behave. Do it, no matter whether it succeeds or not, at least you need to show the attitude you should have. This is what it means to ask for help.
"Okay then." She sighed in her heart, knowing that there was no reason to refuse Deng Chao's request. Even if she felt it was difficult in her heart, she had to accept it.
"Haha, when I return to Beijing, I will bring you a gift." Deng Chao said with a smile when he heard Sun Li agreed.
Hearing this, Sun Li laughed dryly and said, "Go and do your work. I'm going to call Director Wang right now."
"After all, I heard that Director Wang's drama is Ben It’s an art film going to the Venice Film Festival, and there are auditions to select actors, so many people should have ideas.” Some.”
"Okay, I'll leave this to you." Deng Chao said with emotion when he saw Sun Li being so considerate.
"Well, go ahead and do your business. Goodbye." Sun Li smiled.
"Okay, goodbye." Deng Chao also smiled.
Then, Sun Li hung up the phone.
After hanging up the call from Deng Chao, Sun Li pulled out Wang Shu's mobile phone number, looked at it blankly for a long time, and finally dialed it.
"Hello." Wang Shu saw the call from Sun Li and answered it immediately.
"Are you busy?" Sun Li asked softly.
"I wonder if you are busy?" Wang Shu teased with a smile.
"Get out!" When Sun Li heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but she snorted angrily.
Then he asked, "Do you have time in the evening? Let's have a meal together?"
"Okay, I'll pick you up." Wang Shu said.
"Yes." Sun Li responded, and then said, "You go about your business first, and I'll see you in the evening."
"Okay, see you in the evening." Wang Shu responded with a smile.
In the afternoon, Mei Ting, her agent and the corresponding team came to Yishu Company.
After Mei Ting handed over the signing of the contract to her agent, who was responsible for connecting with Yishu Company, she drank tea in Wang Shu’s office.
Although Mei Ting trusted Wang Shu, she still needed to go through the necessary procedures.
There are a lot of terms in the contract, and the agents affiliated with Chengtian need to read more.
The issue of Mei Ting’s remuneration also needs to be negotiated.
Of course Wang Shu was not personally responsible for this kind of thing, and Mei Ting didn’t want to keep an eye on it, so she drank tea and waited in Wang Shu’s office.
"The Crowd" is an art film directed by Wang Shu that hit the Venice Film Festival awards. With his ability, looking at the mainland film and television industry, a lot of actresses are competing to star in it without being paid.
Mei Ting knew this, and also knew that she was a small-screen actor trying to compete on the big screen, and that she was heading to the Venice Film Festival for a big-screen art film, so she immediately offered not to pay for the film.
Wang Shu is not really short of money, so how can he do it for nothing?
After much talking, the salary was finally settled on 100,000 yuan.
Compared with Mei Ting’s position in the film field, it is really not high.
However, the 10W salary can stop everyone's mouths.
Otherwise, if Wang Shu pays too high a salary, people inside and outside the industry will wonder that although Mei Ting is considered a front-line actor in the field of TV dramas, she is still a small-screen actor and has nothing to do with the big-screen except for the time she just debuted. Blank, how can such a small screen actor get a high salary on the big screen?
Moreover, there are many actors who are willing to star in movies and get high pay even if they get zero pay!
This is very contradictory.
On the contrary, the 10W remuneration is different.
As we all know, Fan Binbin’s salary for starring in "Apple" was 100,000.
Although the movies directed by Wang Shu are of higher value, the .10W salary is not high for an actor of Mei Ting's level, so it can also be regarded as a salary reduction.
In short, Mei Ting was selected to star in the art film directed by Wang Shu, which hit the Venice Film Festival, and she took a pay cut to star. This order is normal in the eyes of many practitioners in the film and television industry. .
If Mei Ting does not cut her salary, many people will wonder. There is no shortage of actors in Wang Shu's drama. Why did he choose Mei Ting for a high salary?
Even if there are no tricks, there will still be gossip.
Then it becomes a true rumor.
"Your office is quite simple, isn't it?" Mei Ting took a sip of water and then looked around in Wang Shu's office.
I was a little surprised to see the simple furnishings in Wang Shu's office.
She has been to Chengtian Wu Kebo's office, which is not so low-key.
"As long as it can work, there is no need to make it complicated." Wang Shu laughed.
As he spoke, he walked up to Mei Ting, reached out and pinched her face. There are no cameras in the office, so unless someone breaks in suddenly, there is no need to worry.
Mei Ting was pinched in the face and could not help but glare at him, but she did not resist.
Seeing this, Wang Shu hugged her directly and kissed Mei Ting while she was panicking.
This was in Wang Shu's office. Mei Ting was worried that someone would break in and see this scene, so she kept pushing Wang Shu's chest with her hands, trying to push Wang Shu away.
But she was not strong enough to push Wang Shu away.
Slowly, she accepted her fate.
He kissed Wang Shu nervously and apprehensively.
Wang Shu did not go any further, but kissed Wang Shu for a while and then separated.
Mei Ting glared at him resentfully and speechlessly. Although she did not speak, she expressed her attitude through facial expressions.
Wang Shu smiled and stretched out his hand to tickle the bridge of her nose.
After Wang Shu made this move, Mei Ting suddenly leaned against Wang Shu's chest and hugged him tightly.
Don’t say anything, just hold her like this.
Wang Shu took advantage of the situation and touched her head, saying nothing.
After a while, Mei Ting let him go, straightened her clothes with a red face, then took a sip of water and sat on a chair to calm down.
She wore light makeup today and no lipstick on her mouth. The two kissed just now, and there was no lipstick mark left on Wang Shu's face.
After a while, there was a knock on the door, and Mei Ting's agent and Zhou Xiaofa walked into the office with the contract.
Mei Ting signed without saying a word.
After completing this matter, Chengtian's people did not stay long. Mei Ting came with them and left together.
Wang Shu originally wanted to ask Mei Ting to have dinner with her in the evening, but then he remembered that he had made an appointment with Sun Li in advance, so he didn't say anything.
Mei Ting thought that Wang Shu would have to work overtime at night, so she didn’t mention it in order not to hinder him.
In the evening, Wang Shu drove back home, took a shower and changed clothes, and then drove back to meet Sun Li.
Mei Ting has a faint smell of perfume. Wang Shu hugged her, and there may be some residue on her body.
Although this smell will most likely disappear long ago, taking a shower and changing clothes can always avoid trouble.
Soon, he picked up Sun Li at the appointed place.
Sun Li was dressed beautifully. Wang Shu's eyes lit up and he praised: "It's so beautiful!"
Regardless of whether she is really beautiful or fake, she deserves a compliment at this time.
Moreover, the feeling of giving people a completely different feeling from a sincere compliment to a sincere compliment.
Wang Shu’s eyes lit up, it was his way of thinking.
When Sun Li heard this, she rolled her eyes, but the smile on her face showed that she was happy.
When Sun Li sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seat belt, Wang Shu turned his head and asked, "What are we going to eat?"
"It's cold, let's eat hot pot." Sun Li thought for a while and said.
"Okay." Wang Shu responded, and then drove to a hot pot restaurant with a good environment.
In the private room, the two of them ordered the dishes and started eating slowly.
Sun Li kept glancing at Wang Shu and asked at the right time: "I heard that you are going to make an art film?"
"Yes." Wang Shu responded calmly. There was a sound.
He thought Sun Li wanted to ask about the female character in the play, and he already had a plan in mind.
"Are you going to the Venice Film Festival?" Sun Li poured a piece of mutton slices into Wang Shu's bowl and asked again.
"Well, I can't make it to Cannes. I do plan to go to Venice, but I don't know whether I will be selected." Wang Shu answered with a smile.
When Sun Li heard this, she gave him a look. In her opinion, Wang Shu's play would most likely be selected, so there was no need to worry about it at all.
She said: "Deng Chao would like a chance to audition, is that okay?"
Wang Shu was stunned for a moment when he heard this. When he saw Sun Li lowering her head after saying this, he immediately responded: "Okay, I will send him an audition invitation tomorrow."
"Thank you." Sun Li heard Wang Shu agreed, raised his head and smiled back at him.
But the smile was a bit forced.
Wang Shu sighed: "Why are you being polite? Just tell me directly."
He thought Sun Li wanted to ask about the female character, but he didn't expect that she was here for Deng Chao.
Seeing that Wang Shu said it sincerely, Sun Li smiled at him.
This time it was no longer a forced smile, but a knowing smile.
Wang Shu also cooked a piece of mutton for Sun Li, and then said with a vaccination: "An audition is an audition. If Deng Chao does not meet the requirements, I will remove him."
"You also You know, my film is going to the Venice Film Festival.”
“So, I will focus on movies.”
Although Wang Shu did not explain what he said, Sun Li understood it clearly.
This is telling her that this movie will not involve too many human relationships, and the casting will only consider whether it fits the role in the script.
"You just have to figure it out yourself." Sun Li smiled and expressed her attitude.
She knew very well that Deng Chao wanted to develop into the big screen. However, Wang Shu’s film clearly stated that it was going to the Venice Film Festival, so she could not force Wang Shu to give Deng Chao a character.
If you do this, you will not only be a bad person, but it will also break Wang Shu's heart.
If it were a commercial film, perhaps Wang Shu could be asked to directly book a role.
To do this for an art film competing in the three major film festivals is just ignorant.
Seeing Wang Shu eating hot pot silently, Sun Li rolled her eyes and asked, "What about me? Is there a role suitable for me?"
"No." Wang Shu Answer directly.
"Huh?" Sun Li looked stunned when she saw Wang Shu's decisive answer, feeling inexplicably disappointed as if she had lost something.
Seeing this, Wang Shu explained: "This is a man's drama. There is only one female character in the whole drama who has a relatively large number of roles." People have already come to my company to sign the contract.”
In the original timeline, Mei Ting had a relationship with Sun Li.
In 2014, at the Magnolia Awards Ceremony of the Magic City TV Festival, Sun Li won the award with "Hot Mom", which scored only 6 points, defeating "Parents' Love" starring Mei Ting, which scored 9 points. Look behind the laurel crown.
This year's Magnolia Best Actress nominees include Gao Yuanyuan for "Let's Get Married", Li Xiaoran for "The Real Man", Mei Tiao for "Parental Love", Qin Hailu for "If Life Deceived You", and Sun Yat-sen's Li's "Hot Mom".
Not to mention "Parents' Love" starring Mei Ting, or several other films, "The Story of Hot Mom" starring Sun Li is not enough to overshadow it.
After watching it, it was awarded to her.
Later, Sun Li felt that she had received the award in disgrace and asked Deng Chao to go on stage to receive the award on her behalf.
