Mr. Chu

After a short vacation, Gu Yang returned to Broadway to continue his theatrical performances.

"Salome" was full, and his interview had been published in newspapers and magazines.On the cover of "Vogue", the boy is wearing a wreath, wearing gorgeous women's clothing on his body, with transparent layered skirts, and snowy skin looming, holding a red rose in his right hand, which symbolizes "The Nightingale and the Rose" and "Salome" "The fusion of the two dramas, he is a super star who has shocked the drama world of M country, and the advertising blockbuster with Dior will also be broadcast soon.Qin Shao led him into the fashion industry as a guide, and the bosses welcomed this fresh oriental face.

"He has the eyes of a deer, the softness of china, but he burns on stage as the daughter of a goddess of discord." --Time

"...This oriental boy brought a fresh wind to the Dior show, his temperament is outstanding, like an elf falling into the world." - "Vogue" M Country Edition.

"Gu Yang is the most outstanding newcomer in the theater industry in the past 20 years, and the Cannes judges are not wrong." ——A famous actor in the theater industry, the current winner of the Tony Award.

In short, Gu Yang is already well-known in the high-level circles of country M, and many people are paying attention to him, looking forward to his next move, whether to continue to climb the peak in the drama world, or return to the film industry to make a big splash , Participating in big Hollywood productions.In fact, someone in Hollywood has extended an olive branch to him and invited him to act in a movie.

However, those invitations were all rejected by Xu Kong before they were sent to Gu Yang. This shrewd manager has his own set of rules, just like what he asked the young man before. , to wait patiently, to wait for a long time.

As far as it is concerned, the best role is also a big A-level movie. The director is a drama fan and is fascinated by the nightingale played by Gu Yang. Yang set aside a total of 15 minutes for the scene, which can be said to be unprecedented.If the little fresh meats in China knew about it, they would go crazy, wishing to postpone all their schedules and run over to perform, but Xu Kong was still not satisfied.

"You have to remember our goal." He clearly analyzed the pros and cons of these things for Gu Yang: "If you want to become a legend, then every step you take must be a breakthrough from the predecessors and an innovation of your own. I read The biggest problem with that script is not the role, but the emptiness of the characters. They just need you to play an oriental person in their imagination, rigid, bookish, introverted, and good at math. Isn’t this just a paper man who can’t stand up? Like this kind of role, it’s no problem for others to take it, but you? Why do you want to be like others? Why? Why can we only play this kind of unremarkable role, as a foil to other people’s charm, NO, we deserve it better one."

Gu Yang listened to him quietly, and understood his meaning without any obstacles. Under the calm appearance of this gentle manager, there was also a proud heart that was proud of his motherland. When he was young, he I have been criticized a lot in Hollywood because of race, and now, there is no need to suffer again.

The young man said calmly: "I see, I have no objection, my thoughts are the same as yours, I choose a movie by reading its script, whether the characters impress me, if not, then there is no need to accept it."

That strange and satisfied expression appeared on Xu Kong again, he took a deep look at Gu Yang, nodded, and said before turning to leave: "Don't worry, if there is such a script, I won't Let you miss it."

In the time when there are no movies, Gu Yang is still acting on Broadway and honing his acting skills. He can already switch between the two roles of Nightingale and Salome smoothly and freely.In his spare time, he would constantly read scripts and recite plays to enrich his reading.

As everyone knows, this kind of life attitude and daily work and rest made many people who secretly followed him feel at a loss.

Like paparazzi.

The paparazzi atmosphere in country M is worse than that in country Z. Once they set their sights on an artist, they will keep digging for material and do everything they can.Gu Yang is a young and fresh face, and he has entered the fashion industry again, so naturally some people want to dig around to see if they can reveal anything.

result.

"Get up at six and go out, go to Broadway and stay until four in the afternoon, and if there is no play in the evening, go to the library."

"No smoking, no drinking, no gambling, no drugs."

"There seems to be a lover, but we can't find out who it is."

"Excellent character and learning in the university, excellent grades, the teacher's evaluation of him is almost perfect..."

"No promiscuity."

The paparazzi ABCDE looked at each other and fell silent in unison.

How is this reported—how can this be reported?I rely on this oriental is too fucking ghost, right?Why don't you go to the party and take a break to relax?ah?Are you a teenager?Don't be a fucking ascetic ascetic, right?

This kind of report, of course, cannot be justified. The paparazzi can only write in sorrow: "...he lives a self-disciplined life and has excellent character..." Invisibly added a bit of halo to Gu Yang.

Regarding this point, Xu Kong also called him specifically to praise him, "Good job." The agent said appreciatively: "At your age, it is really rare to see people who can control the lower body, ah——I think about me Those white bastards I took before had headaches, and if you don’t pay attention, they can cause a lot of scandals for you, and you have to praise Chu Jinye, he is quite restrained.”

"!!" Gu Yang stammered: "You...you know."

It was supposed to be the first time to tell the agent, but it was too chaotic at the time, and I was too busy later, so it was delayed until now.Fortunately, Gu Yang forgot about Chu Jinye, and Xu Kong had long been mentally prepared for their affairs. In his opinion, looking for Chu Jinye must be more reassuring than looking for other messy things.At least they are a family, and the other party's power is strong enough to protect them, so they are not afraid of any moths.

But the beating still had to be beating. Xu Kong said a few more words, hung up the phone, and suddenly felt a faint sadness in his heart that the cabbage was being arched by a pig. He shuddered and shook his head to drive the thought out of his mind.

His eyes turned to the stack of scripts in front of him again, and the manager frowned. In Hollywood, how rare is it to find a good role suitable for Orientals...

On Gu Yang's side, he was still living peacefully as before. One day, he encountered a small accident.

"Asen!" After performing a performance of "Salome", the boy was pleasantly surprised to see his friend whom he had not seen for a long time in the background, he couldn't help shouting happily, and rushed over.

Asen smiled and waved at him. His screenwriting major had stricter attendance requirements, so that he could not come to his performance like Zhao Shaoye did. They hadn't seen each other for several months.

"Long time no see, I miss you very much, ah, it's a pity that Shaoye just went back, otherwise we can get together." Gu Yang said: "How are you at school recently?"

"Very good." Asen replied with a smile: "The school is going crazy for you - many seniors and sisters have become fans of your drama, do you know? Your DVD videos are played in the cafeteria every day."

Gu Yang's face turned red, he hadn't cultivated enough to accept compliments calmly, so he complained a bit: "Why is this so?"

"Because you acted well. Really, I will be conquered by you in the audience. You are amazing, Yangyang." Arsen paused and said, "My uncle just came back from Africa. He just came back from Africa. Also off stage, he wants to see you, is that okay?"

"No problem." The boy replied, so he saw A Sen go out for a while, and soon, a man he... a little familiar walked into the background.

That is!

Gu Yang's eyes widened, and he said with some uncertainty, "You are... Director Xu An?"

The other party smiled at him, the smile was still as loving and tolerant as in the memory, yes, Gu Yang immediately remembered that this man with slightly white hair and elegant posture was Xu An.

The name Xu An is well-known in the film industry of country Z. He is the only director in China who has won two Oscars!

Hollywood's A-level director, Oscar's darling, one of the fifty greatest contemporary directors, in the domestic director circle, in terms of international celebrity, he dares to be the second, and no one dares to be the first.

The person who can truly influence the annals of film history is this, Asen's uncle.

"I didn't hide it from you on purpose." Before he could ask, A Sen took the initiative to explain: "Because...my uncle is very low-key, and our family doesn't want to be known by the media, so I have never announced to the outside world that I Everything now is based on my ability, I don't think this is something worth showing off."

Gu Yang nodded in understanding, and looked at the other party with some doubts and curiosity. He had met this legendary director once, at the awards festival in Cannes. The other party was a judge and had a brief exchange with him.At that time, this senior also looked at Gu Yang lovingly and praised him for having the most beautiful eyes.

"Good day." Xu An said softly elegantly, he is an old gentleman, he speaks and does things in a classical style, he looked at Gu Yang, and said softly: "Hello... Long time no see, hope for my visit It won't make you feel abrupt."

"Excuse me, but I can't help it. Your performance was so, so wonderful that I thought for a while that I saw Salome in person."

"Actually, when I was in college, I was obsessed with Oscar Wilde for a while. I liked his plays, and I loved Salome deeply. It was unrealistic to want to make her into a movie, but I later I found that I couldn't find such an actor at all, she has a fanatical temperament, and there is no one who can express it."

"I always thought there would be no, until today, I saw you."

Xu An stared at the boy's young face, he sighed with emotion, and said, "You have changed so much... When I saw you last time, you were just a little boy, and you can only act as a little boy." , Now, you have been reborn, you are Nightingale and a woman, you have become unparalleled beauty, I am really surprised, I'm sorry... Are you in love?"

Gu Yang blushed slightly, and said, "Yes, I love him very much."

He is not the same as her in English, but neither of them cares about it, on the contrary.Xu An's eyes brightened even more when he heard "he".

Love is a strange emotion. As the drama teacher said, it turns children into adults and innocence into charm.In art, it is so important that it can completely change an actor.

He looked at Gu Yang and said seriously: "When you won the Best Actor in Cannes, I discussed with the chairman of the jury whether it was because you fit the role that you were able to display that acting skill, or did you have that kind of acting skill yourself? Terrible talent. Now I know, Gu Yang, you are very powerful, and I came here this time because I have a notebook in my hand, which is very suitable for you."

An invitation from the Oscar director!How many people can say no?Gu Yang's breathing stopped for a moment, and he said, "It's... what is it like?"

But Xu An shook his head, looked at him apologetically, and said, "I can't let you know about this now, because I still want to confirm something. Before that, knowing too much will only trouble you .But...I'm really not teasing you, as a gift and compensation, I want to give you a gift."

"what?"

Facing the doubtful look on the young man's face, the director smiled and said succinctly: "Your manager will notify you."

This incident disappeared as suddenly as it came. Gu Yang later recalled that he wondered if he was dreaming at that time. Xu An left as mysteriously as he appeared mysteriously. Other countries went to harvest inspiration, and what he said never happened.

But Gu Yang... has always been very easygoing, he has a very calm personality, things should come and go, since they haven't happened for the time being, just pretend that he doesn't exist.So much so that in the face of this kind of thing that would be scratching the heart and liver on others, when it comes to him—that’s it, what can be done, let him go.

One day, when Gu Yang was seriously reading in the library, his cell phone vibrated suddenly, it was Xu Kong's call.

The boy walked outside the library and just pressed the call button when he was overwhelmed by the manager's slapping voice. The other party yelled at him with a fierceness that had never been seen before, "Come to the set! Hurry up!" Come on! There's a role! There's a role that's perfect for you!"
