Frenzy of Rebirth

Chapter 23 The New Play "Close Closer"

Whether in the film industry or in the entertainment industry, skills are important, but luck is equally important.If Dai Fan hadn't been busy on the set in her previous life and happened to act as a stand-in for someone, she wouldn't have become so popular later on.He thought that he was lucky to get this pink and jade-carved face after rebirth, but he didn't expect that there would be someone more lucky——

The phrase "Director Gu" in Xu Jiang's mouth instantly made Dai Fan put away his phone and look at him.As far as he knows, there are not many directors with the surname Gu. When people say "Director Gu", they basically default to Gu Yang.He waited expectantly for Xu Jiang to hang up the phone, and immediately asked with bright eyes: "...Director Gu! Is it Director Gu Huang!"

Except when she was working, Daifan was basically lazy and indifferent to the world. Xu Jiang hadn't seen him in this battle before, so he replied in surprise and joy: "...Yes, yes! It's Director Gu Tong. , Her assistant called! Said that there is a role, and I am in a hurry to ask for someone. I think you are very suitable, Brother Fan, and I want you to audition..." "Go!"

He worked so hard to get close to Chi Ying, wasn't it just for this moment?

Daifan couldn't hide her joy, and she didn't even understand the context of this matter - Chi Ying called him to ask for his assistant's number, but Gu Ying's assistant came over to invite him to audition, and he knew with his toes that he was in it credit.

But Defan was overwhelmed by joy, so she couldn't think about it.Xu Jiang said that the script has been sent to Daifan's work mailbox, and he is still the second male lead.As soon as the two of them got home, one called and replied to Gu Qing, and the other read the script carefully with a laptop.

"...Okay, okay, we'll come over tomorrow, Brother Fan values ​​this opportunity very much, thank you Director Gu for your appreciation!" Xu Jiang hung up the phone and immediately started booking a ticket.He glanced at Daifan, who was sitting on the sofa in a more serious posture, holding a teacup and watching while drinking tea. After he put down the teacup, he naturally pinched his earlobe with his hands, and his whole body exuded an air of thinking .

Xu Jiang was stunned, and suddenly felt as if he had seen this scene somewhere.

He frowned and thought for a moment, then the "Sunset" that he accompanied Dai Fan to watch a few months ago popped into his mind-his artist has the same temperament as Chi Yingdi!

In order not to disturb Dai Fan's reading of the script, Xu Jiang ran aside to read the latest entertainment news.

Xu Jiang actually studied advertising media, his grades were not very good, and he didn't expect to be able to rely on it for a living.There are so many mistakes in this world. He has no interest in entertainment news. The artists on the screen can only recognize those who have been photographed a lot, but Xu Jiang joined Yan Yu and became the owner's assistant.He really doesn't have the habit of following entertainment news, but in order to do his job well, he has to remind himself to watch it at least once every two days to keep abreast of the latest current events.

But he only read a few innocuous news, and saw "Lu Qing'an, the second male lead of the crew of "A Closer Hand", was detained for drunk driving".

"So close"? !Isn't that the script his artist is reading now!

Shocked, Xu Jiang searched for information about the show, and memories flooded out of his mind.Before Daifan asked him to inquire about Chi Yingxian, he had learned that Gu Yang's new play had started filming, and Chi Yingxian had gone to the production team.So, his artist is about to play against the actor? !For an artist, there is a chance to appear in the public eye. With Chi Yingxian's fan base and the reputation of director Gu Tong's production... Xu Jiang felt as if he had seen Dai Fan standing under the spotlight, and called out All should look like.

But Xu Jiang soon fell into a slump again - it was pure luck that such a play could fall on his artist. It was news the day before yesterday that the No. [-] male lead in "A Closer Look" was detained for drunk driving, and many people must have taken this opportunity to catch up with Actor Chi and Director Gu.

If he knew earlier, he would definitely find a way to hand over Difan's information to fight for it.

Fortunately, God favored Defan.Xu Jiang sighed secretly, determined to be more sensitive and work harder in the future, his artist is now empty-handed, and he is the only one left.

After reading the summary sent by Dai Fan, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

What he wrote was really amazing when he was a little genius.

"A Closer Look" tells the story of an orphan who is currently a criminal [Note 1], who accidentally learns that he has a biological brother, and follows the clues to find his relatives.The clue points to Dunhuang, and the male protagonist goes to Dunhuang alone with the tour group. He meets a young man in the car, and the two hit it off right away, and they hit it off very well.During the journey, the tour bus broke down in the middle and stopped at a place where there was no village or shop behind, and the group was trapped in an old house in a small village.

Strange things started here. People in the tour group died strangely one after another. As a criminal, the male protagonist had a keen sense of smell and immediately realized that this was a serial murder case.He and the young man searched for the murderer, trying to prevent the murderer from continuing to kill, but failed again and again.At the end of the story, the male protagonist finally reveals the mystery—it turns out that the young man is his biological brother, and behind this serial murder case is their lonely life experience.Back then, they became orphans because these few people embezzled a huge sum of money, and after the incident, their parents took the blame and paid the price of their lives.Relying on his super high IQ, the younger brother investigated clearly the whole story of the year, and paranoidly planned this revenge plan, using the events of the year as an introduction to attract everyone to this trip to Dunhuang.

The male protagonist solves the puzzles little by little, and learns the truth little by little. In the end, his younger brother commits suicide by drinking a bullet. He is very satisfied to have such a trip with his relatives.

Defan is very satisfied with this script. He will play the young man who is the center of this tragedy.

He casually asked: "Who is the number one actor, it's not written in the notebook."

"It's Chi Yingdi!" Xu Jiang said.

Defan was surprised for a moment, then smiled thoughtfully.I didn't expect that the "I have the opportunity to cooperate with you" that I said at the beginning would come so quickly.

Immediately, scenes from Chi Yingxian's movies popped up in his mind. The man is indeed handsome and his acting is excellent. Whether he is an actor who is about to act in a rival play or simply appreciates it, Defan is very satisfied.

It's just that he has a weird temper and is a little childish.

The next day, he and Xu Jiang got on the plane to Dunhuang. Xu Jiang was anxious all the time. Assistant Director Gu said that he was only auditioning, and he might not be able to use Daifan in the end; Sleeping soundly next to him, she didn't look worried at all.

Really!It’s good to read the script on the plane!Didn't sleep last night!How lazy! !

Daifan didn't know that the assistant was so nervous, he slept soundly on the plane, and dreamed about the past after a long absence.As soon as they got off the plane, when Defan turned on his phone, unread text messages flooded into his phone like crazy.Before he had time to click on it, the call came in.

The word "Brother" appeared on the screen, and the lazy Dai Fan became nervous in an instant.

He can be calm and composed in front of others, but he can't calm down in front of Daihan.The other party's love from family is something he has never felt in his previous life, and he is still under the tremendous pressure of possibly revealing his secrets.Daifan took a deep breath, and after doing enough psychological construction, he connected: "Hey, brother..."

"Fanfan, how could you not tell me about such a big thing?!"

Daihan's angry voice came from the receiver, yelling at him for a while.Defan is actually in her 30s, and she suddenly froze like a child: "...I, what's wrong with me?"

"Did Yan Yu terminate the contract with you or did you terminate the contract with Yan Yu? Are they bullying you?" Daihan asked like a machine gun, "I have already asked the secretary to call the person in charge of Yan Yu, what about their public relations? Do it, what are the comments below!"

"Brother...it's okay, let them talk about it." Defan was so asked that she didn't know where to start to answer, so she had to forcefully change the subject, "I just accepted a scene and I'm about to join the group. I told you... I've already dealt with Yan Yu's matter, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Okay, then you work hard," Daihan said, "I'll take care of this matter, and you don't have to worry about anything."

After Daihan finished speaking, she hung up the phone without giving Daifan a chance to refute.

He looked at the blacked-out screen with a dazed face, and it was Xu Jiang who reminded him: "Brother Fan?"

"Ah, it's okay, let's go."

Based on his understanding of Daihan, the method the other party can use must be the money crushing technique.Xu Jiang dragged the suitcase for him, and the two of them got into the reserved car and went straight to the shooting location.The scenery of Dunhuang is pretty good. Looking at the scenery outside the window, Dai Fan let go of her thoughts until she got off the car.

Xu Jiang rushed ahead of him with a suitcase, and communicated with the crew by handing business cards: "Hi, I'm Daifan's assistant. This is Daifan. Director Gu contacted us to audition."

But Xu Jiang didn't choose well, he picked a temporary worker, and he didn't know about the temporary change of roles for the second male lead.He knew Dai Fan, looked at her a few more times and said, "I don't know about it. You have to call Director Gu and ask her assistant to come out to pick it up. I can't let you in."

"........."

Xu Jiang had no choice but to obediently call Gu Ying's assistant.But the phone rang "beep beep" for a while, and no one answered it. He called several times in a row, but did not get a response.For a moment, Dai Fan and Xu Jiang stood awkwardly on the sidelines, and Xu Jiang said with a mournful face, "... Assistant Director Gu didn't answer the phone."

Defan's face should not be too easy to remember, the passing staff, regardless of gender, should look at him more often.What's going on, anyway, Defan is also an artist, so it's not good to be left out like this.Xu Jiang was so anxious that he kept calling Assistant Gu Ying.

After waiting for about 5 minutes, Defan simply took out her mobile phone and dialed the number.

Xu Jiang looked at him in confusion, and saw that Daifan said with a smile, "Hey, I'm here, they won't let me in, can you come pick me up?"

He has a brisk tone, because he likes to say "la" and "ya", which sounds like a baby at first glance.After Defan hung up the phone, a few minutes later, a man with black-rimmed glasses came out with an indifferent expression.He first glanced at Daifan, nodded slightly, and then said to the staff: "Brother Chi asked me to pick him up."

After he finished speaking, he introduced himself to Daifan: "Hello, Brother Fan, I am Brother Chi's assistant, and my name is Miller."
