After being slag, I became popular in the entertainment industry

Hubert's performance was very sincere, but it did not prevent Chen Zhiwen from looking at him with judgmental eyes.

With Cheryl's experience of starring in "Luo Shui", most of the Licheng media, apart from acknowledging part of Chen Zhiwen's talent and good luck, feel that this young director has just emerged and is too naive. Big somersault.

——It’s fine to choose a rookie actor, choose a person who has never studied drama performance, choose a drunkard’s son... This sounds too absurd and ridiculous!

——If it weren't for the good luck of the director of Huaguo, which seems to be favored by God, and Cheryl just has such a talent for acting, who knows what "Luo Shui" will be like?

— just luck.

A part of the Licheng media laughed like this.

But for Chen Zhiwen, the fact is just the opposite.

In terms of filming, he may use these as bargaining chips to coax his young lover, but he will not easily do the evil act of filling the crew with extremely bad actors based on goodwill and ruining the film.

It was his vicious vision and the courage of many years in the showbiz that made him dare to choose a new actor.

Cheryl is just one exception.

Because he is confident that Cheryl will contribute acting skills that are not inferior to famous actors, and he is confident that he can control tiao. Tiao. Teach the other party how to grasp the role during the filming process.

Chen Zhiwen looked at Hubert quietly, a smile slowly formed on the corner of his mouth.

"I saw your extremely bad resume. For any director, you are a time.bomb."

He said unhurriedly, every word was soft and slow.

So even so... all he got was a no?

It was as if his heart was slightly clenched by an invisible hand, and the paper in Hubert's mouth was bitten unconsciously by him.

"But, Hubert, I like your attitude."

The voice turned slightly, like a whisper between lovers, and the ending sound rose slightly, which made people's heart skip a beat.

When he heard the sound and raised his head, Hubert suddenly found that Chen Zhiwen had a pair of very beautiful eyes.

At this moment, staring at the other party's dark pupils, he felt a little more anticipation in his heart.

"Hubert, you are very proactive. The film project of "Borderless City" has not even been established. You have just finished writing the script, but you have already appeared in my office."

The young director in front of him leaned on the back of his seat and smiled faintly, "Out of affirmation of your courage, I am willing to give you a chance to audition."

Before Hubert could react, Chen Zhiwen stretched out a finger, gently pressed against his lips, and smiled at him.

The arc of the mouth seemed to have a hint of mystery.

"However, don't rush to be happy, it's just an opportunity, not to mention the negative impact of your past experience on the audience, I will ask you to an extremely high level."

"Even if it's just a chance to audition... I'm very happy, thank you." Hubert said hoarsely.

His heart was pounding, at an unusual frequency.

Chen Zhiwen looked at the script in hand.

In the rather dark story of "City without Owner", among the plot lines that need to attract the attention of the audience at the very beginning, is the confession of the male protagonist York at the beginning.

If you want to perform this paragraph well, it will be a test of the leading actor's acting skills.

Chen Zhiwen's voice sounded slowly.

"You are an IT computer network engineer. You were supposed to be working overtime before the weekend holiday. You were lying on the table in a daze under the pale light. When you woke up, you found yourself lying on the bed. On the bed, your wife looked at you with a smile on her face, and said joyfully, dear, what a happy weekend, and kissed your lips sweetly."

"And what makes you very surprised and even creepy is that in these two things, all your memories are blank, and the experience that happened between them is like a blank sheet of paper for you."

"Please begin your interpretation, Hubert—"

Hubert pursed his lips slightly.

When Chen Zhiwen introduced the plot, he had already started guessing in his mind what kind of story "City Without Owner" was telling.

It is true that he came too early, King Quan Films had not had time to approve the project, and the media in Licheng had heated discussions and speculations about the framework of Chen Zhiwen's film, and most of them thought it was a science fiction film with a supernatural color—— "Borderless City" sounds very intrusive.

As for how this Chinese Chen wants to combine science fiction films and supernatural films, and whether the hasty fusion will become a joke-like four-dimensional image, this is not what they care about.

Hubert took a deep breath, pondered for a while, nodded to Chen Zhiwen, and then gently closed his eyes.

It was getting dark, and York, played by Hubert, was lying on the table, as if he was extremely tired, and said in a dream, "Damn, when can I finish this project sooner..."

After opening it again, there was a bit of sleepy tiredness on his face, which perfectly combined with the decadent dark circles under his eyes. When he felt the soft bed under him and saw his charming wife beside him, the man stared His eyes widened, and he was instantly awake.

His wife, who shouldn't have existed, hugged him intimately, lowered her head and kissed his forehead. The emotion of fear and doubt seemed to rise slowly from the tailbone, making his scalp numb.

——Why did he have no impression at all?

—God, these three days...how on earth did he spend these three days?

"Okay, we can get out now." Chen Zhiwen said lightly.

Hubert, who broke away from the performance, let out a deep breath and rubbed the space between his brows.

He didn't know how long he had been wandering in a daze, and he had been in the detention center for theft, which almost wiped out his spirit. He didn't know if he, who hadn't been in contact with stage performances for several years, would let Chen Zhiwen satisfy.

Hubert's heart rose slightly.

Throwing the script on the table casually, Chen Zhiwen took a sip of his coffee, and did not take the initiative to comment on Hubert's performance this time, lightly pressing his fingers on the table.

Lazy eyes looked at Hubert.

The blood-colored and pale lips of the man on the opposite side nibbled on the ridiculous paper-shaped cigarette. Obviously, due to the unaccustomed withdrawal reaction, Hubert nibbled on the cigarette with his teeth from time to time, showing a trace of anxiety.

Chen Zhiwen just asked such a question lightly.

"How long has it been since you quit smoking?"

Hubert's lips tightened slightly, forming a straight line.

"Not long ago." His voice was hoarse.

Chen Zhiwen looked at him, as if pondering the credibility of his words.

His pupils looked extremely deep.

In the plot of the original book, Hubert’s life was a tragedy, but he himself was depraved, hopeless, in and out of the detention center, became a frequent visitor, and committed suicide at the Oscar awards ceremony At that time, Chen Zhiwen didn't even know whether the other party had quit marijuana.

For a movie, if the star who has already signed a contract really ate prison food during the filming process, sucked . The first impression makes the audience unwilling to step into the movie easily and watch this movie.

Chen Zhiwen chuckled lightly.

But, at the same time, the audience also loves to watch the drama of the prodigal son's return.

Cheesy yet effective.

"You were just released from detention 5 months ago for stealing merchandise from a family."

"Hubert, you said that you quit smoking not long ago, but your self-discipline is recognized as poor in the industry. In the past ten years, after being accidentally scouted and entered the entertainment industry, even if you were caught by the media during the fire It was captured, but your addiction to cigarettes has not stopped..."

"If you are like this, how can you ensure that you can still maintain this hard-won self-discipline during the next filming process? Huh?"

Chen Zhiwen's voice was slightly heavier, and those deep pupils seemed to be carrying invisible pressure.

"How can I be sure that this is not a joke of your 3-minute enthusiasm?"

Hubert looked at Chen Zhiwen quietly.

At this moment, he seemed to think of how his few friends looked at him with sad eyes when he privately terminated the contract with the company a few years ago and was completely depraved, and persuaded Hubert to quit all bad habits and want to change he.

However, he still let them down.

He has become more and more eccentric. If a successful entertainer is compared to a commodity in the entertainment industry, then he is a broken piece of porcelain that has no value.

At this time, no one can have any expectations for him, a person who should be put into the waste recycling bin.

Hubert's lips trembled slightly.

After a long time, he looked deeply at Chen Zhiwen, and in those depressed eyes, it was as if a bright fire had ignited in a car.

"Do you believe me?" Hubert asked softly.

"If you believe me, I will insist. I will not be that bastard who was ridiculed by the entertainment circle in Licheng again."

His voice is very soft, like a thin ball of cotton wool, which will easily spread out in the air in the next second.

Chen Zhiwen looked at Hubert, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

He has made a decision in his mind.

He estimated that the decision made this time on the choice of the leading actor in "City Without Owner" will also cause a frantic and fierce ridicule from the media in Licheng.

——This Huaguo's Chen is probably even more insane!

so what?

"I believe you."

Chen Zhiwen replied with a smile.

He reached out and gently held Hubert's fingers.

Hubert's fingers were very cold, and the thin, stained windbreaker was dragged down on the ground. Feeling the temperature between Chen Zhiwen's fingers, Hubert's eyelids trembled slightly.

"Congratulations, the lead actor of "Borderless City"."

Chen Zhiwen raised his eyebrows with a smile, and the slightly raised arc of his peach eyes made Hubert suddenly think of the flowers blooming on the branches in Licheng after the weather warmed up in March.

so beautiful.

There seems to be traces of sweetness in the air.

"Let this character be the first powerful director you have made to the media in Licheng, and slap those voices from the mud on the ground."

He heard Chen Zhiwen say softly——

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me, you won it yourself, you won it before all the actors in Licheng, Hubert."

The fingers holding Hubert exerted a little force.

"You have to remember, I didn't take the initiative to reach out to you, but you crawled out of the mud."

"Male lead York, he is yours now."

The author has something to say: Little Theater

Director Chen: You don’t need to thank me, you won this by yourself

Hubert: Alright, then I want to use my acting talent as a promise to ovo [beautiful]

Director Chen: ...Next, you are out, out【Indifference】
