Superstars started as eunuchs

Chapter 396 Hasty! (Second update arrives, please recommend!)

In Liu Yifei's words, she couldn't hide her love for this novel, and more for this character.

However, the tone of the manager Mary was very flat, as if she didn't hear the director's name clearly, Mary asked Liu Yifei again and again, "What's the name of the director?"

"My name is Lin Dong. He has worked with me before. He is a very good actor! He has won many awards!"

She is also a witness to Lin Dong's honor!
Mary on the phone quickly took out a notebook, and quickly searched the notebook with one finger.

Her fingers skipped Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Ma Xiaogang and other well-known film directors at present.

However, the name Lin Dong was not found among these well-known directors.His fingers quickly tapped twice on the notebook.Then he asked again on the phone, "He doesn't seem to be a famous film director, does he?"

"Of course not!" Liu Yifei couldn't help laughing, Mary, the agent, didn't seem to know much about many things in China.

However, Liu Yifei was not too surprised to hear this kind of question. The same thing happened several times before.

However, Mary didn't seem to correct her. She is a Chinese-American and was a relatively powerful agent in the United States.

In terms of choosing scripts, Marry, the manager, considered more about whether the director was a big director and whether the production was a big production, and he didn't seem to think too much about other aspects.

"He is a well-known actor, and this is his first time as a director!" Liu Yifei directly explained Lin Dong's current situation.

Compared with others, Liu Yifei is full of confidence in Lin Dong as a director.

She had heard from Shu Chang before that Lin Dong also took a special course on directing.Very good grades!

"Is this your first time as a director?" Marry's tone changed quickly, and there was a hint of suspicion in her voice.

Obviously, in her heart, she did not believe that Lin Dong could make any good TV and movie works.

Especially since it was her first time as a director, she seemed to sense the change in Mary's tone, which made Liu Yifei a little disappointed.

She regretted that she had signed a contract with the current company, so that many things were done without hands. If it was according to her personality, she would have wanted to accept this invitation a long time ago.

Many things can only be done with the consent of the brokerage company. If it was her own, she would have already won Lin Dong's heroine who blows the lamp.

Rather than asking for the broker’s opinion on everything like now.

The agent Mary was silent for a while, seeming to organize her words. After a while, she continued, "I will refuse this invitation."

"As a new director, no matter how superb his acting skills are, I don't really recognize his directing ability!"

"After all, none of us have seen his works, so I am not sure how much influence he can bring to you. I dare not take this risk and will not take it."

"On the other hand, I think since he will come to you immediately, he probably lacks in funds. At least I think that with your worth, he may not be able to truly satisfy your salary."

"And the name Gui Chuu Deng sounds like a low-cost horror film. You are not a small actor now, so you don't need to rely on such a low-cost film to attract attention!"

Marry's tone was full of arrogance and arrogance. After being transferred here from the United States, she felt that the Chinese film industry was not strong enough!
There is no way to compare with Hollywood!
This tone made Liu Yifei frowned slightly, and sure enough, what she was worried about happened.

"Can you talk to me after reading this novel first?" Liu Yifei's tone was a little tough, and she hung up the phone immediately after saying this, she felt that there was no need to continue.

Just as Liu Yifei hung up on Marry over there, the phone rang again.

She thought it was Liu Yifei at first, but looked at the caller ID, but it showed an unfamiliar number.

After thinking for a moment, he quickly connected the phone. After the call was connected, a strange man's voice came from the other side of the phone.

"Hello, I'm Lin Dong."

Lin Dong?Why is this name so familiar? ? Mary thought for a while, and then remembered that the name Lin Dong had appeared many times when she was talking to Liu Yifei just now.

"Hi, I'm Liu Yifei's manager, Mary."

Although with a hint of curiosity, Mary quickly introduced herself.

"Hello! Mary hello!"

"I'll just explain why I'm here. Actually, I'm calling you because I want to cooperate with Liu Yifei, an artist under your banner. We currently have a project, and I hope she can come to audition!"

"If it's the right fit, we could make her the heroine of our movie."

Lin Dong was originally a straightforward person, so he explained his purpose of coming very straightforwardly.

Hearing what Lin Dong said, Mary also understood in an instant. Sure enough, this Lin Dong was the Lin Dong that Liu Yifei mentioned just now. She didn't expect that Lin Dong would call him by such a coincidence.

"Look." Before Lin Dong could say anything, Mary had interrupted Lin Dong bluntly.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin Dong, I think I may have to reject your invitation to Liu Yifei on behalf of our company."

"I just heard Liu Yifei talk about your movie and the outline of the story. I also introduced your personal situation. I heard that it is your first time to be a director."

"So based on various considerations, our company will reject your invitation, and I hope you can forgive me."

Mary's words didn't beat around the bush too much, and the meaning was very obvious, she just didn't want Liu Yifei to cooperate with Lin Dong.

To be honest, this surprised Lin Dong a little. He didn't expect to die before he could finish his mission.

Originally, he wanted Liu Yifei to have a chance to break through himself, but now he was stuck at the level of the agent, and he didn't agree.

Hasty!Hearing Liu Yifei's tone, he should be very interested, but he didn't expect to be stuck here.

"Well then, I will ask our staff to send part of the script to your company's mailbox later.

You can make a decision after reading it. If there is a change at that time, you can contact me again through this phone number at any time, so you can think about it again. "

Although the agent named Mary had just said it all to death, Lin Dong didn't block the road.

The main reason is that he is familiar with Liu Yifei, and he can see that Liu Yifei still likes this role very much.

He mainly wanted to give Liu Yifei a chance.

"That's okay, if you want to do this, I don't mind."

Mary's tone obviously did not want to read the script, but was full of helplessness, as impatient as if she was harassed by hooligans.

Because in her heart, both Lin Dong and this movie have been sentenced to death, so it is impossible to come back from the dead.

Having heard Mary's tone, Lin Dong also gave a wry smile, and then hung up after a few words of greeting.

Then he called Liu Yifei and explained the situation. Hearing what Lin Dong said, Liu Yifei was also very distressed.Liu Yifei still regrets talking about this matter if she knew that she would not have signed with this company.

Although this company is a relatively large company, judging from the current situation, many of the company's decisions are not wise.

In other words, many of the company's decisions are too westernized, and their current main market is in China.

Using Western thinking or ways of doing things to deal with China's affairs obviously has little effect.

What makes Liu Yifei even more helpless is that the company faced such a situation, but did not make any corrections. Instead, it was rich and powerful and insisted on going its own way.

After chatting with Liu Yifei for a while, Lin Dong hung up the phone, and he called Zhang Yuqi's manager Yang Wuxie.
