The full-time male god of rebirth in the entertainment industry

Zhu Jue had his own guesses about the person who cut off his beard halfway, and he asked him directly during the call at night.

"It's me." Shen Yi didn't shy away: "Kenny Pegg went back to China after watching your movie. I happened to be there when I heard the news, so I helped you talk about it."

Shen Yi is also a very busy person. He has been flying abroad for the past few days, and the time difference with China is different almost every day. Just like now, Zhu Jue's side is nine o'clock in the evening, and his side is already ten o'clock in the morning .

"However, in fact, I don't think I've been of much help." Shen Yi didn't understand how to write the three words "take credit" at all: "I heard that Pegg himself also meant to change your role. At most it just catalyzed it."

However, Shen Yi didn't say a word. Maybe he didn't even have the catalytic effect. Based on the internal information he inquired, it was a survey that just came out a while ago that prompted Pegg to make this decision.

Just like TV dramas will conduct surveys to specifically investigate who the audience is watching for, movies also have this research activity. Several large-scale authoritative research institutions in China have issued their research reports when "Mystery Visitor" is halfway through the schedule. The report is very simple in terms of questions. It is nothing more than who you spend money for, who you think is the most worthy of your ticket money after watching it, and whose work you may go to see in the future. The only difference is that if the audience wants to participate There is only one condition for the research, that is, you have actually gone to the movie. There is a string of digital codes on the ticket stub of the movie theater, which is unique and can be discarded after use on a website. Only then are you qualified to answer the questionnaire, otherwise you are not even qualified to read the questionnaire.

This is a survey that does not show affection at all and only looks at who's box office appeal. With the premise of ticket stubs, it is clear at a glance who can carry the box office. Almost all high-end companies in the circle will buy the final data from these research institutions. What shocked everyone the most was that Zhu Jue ranked last on the list of the item "Who are you spending money for?", but in the last two rankings, he jumped a thousand miles, only a little behind Zhao Ying and came in second. That's all.

"Your data surprised him, and it is reasonable to give you a more important role under the balance."

Shen Yi analyzed it very carefully, and Zhu Jue couldn't help laughing after listening to it: "Even if this is the case, it must be different with your help and without your help." After making a special trip, my voice softened involuntarily: "How was your day today..."

※※※

Before "Mysterious Visitor" was released, Zhu Jue clearly felt the changes in his life.

The speed of his life seemed to be raised suddenly. Doyle took the initiative to send him a contract intention. Unlike the previous contract, Doyle was willing to admit in front of the public that he was their main The partner, this news alone made Zhu Jue stay on the headlines for several days.

In addition, his wallet has also been enriched a lot. The remuneration of "Mystery Visitor" came very quickly. Not only that, the first box office bonus has also been transferred to his account-this speed is different from the past. With their Based on the analysis, it is not difficult to see that the other party is trying to maintain a good relationship between them.

"Maybe there will be a sequel." Ji Jing judged.

Their work team has become extremely busy. The most important thing in front of them is Kenny Pegg's audition next month, but before that, they still have a lot of things to do, because a "Mystery Visitor" , It seems that people all over the country know that there is an actor named Zhu Jue. Not only the script invitations, advertising endorsement invitations, etc. have increased rapidly overnight, but also those invitations for commercial banquets, private parties, etc. have been pouring in like snowflakes.

These are the things that make Zhu Jue most anxious. He is not afraid of acting, no matter how difficult the scene is. Back then, as a physically handicapped person, he could happily play the corpse, let alone now, he is not afraid of running an announcement, anyway. The mind-wandering skill is already full, and ordinary people really can't see him through.

But just these reception invitations!He really had a headache to death.

In terms of selfishness, he doesn't want to go to any of these invitations. Whether it's a birthday party for a certain queen or a warm dinner for a big name in the industry, he is not interested, but helplessly, he is not Back then, the man who called for the wind and called for the rain and wished for Judgment, now he has no cold face to take Joe's capital. Fortunately, Ji Jing was there to help him reject some invitations, leaving only some invitations that he really couldn't refuse.

Although a lot has been deleted, what is left is enough to wish that Jue will not be lonely at night for more than half a month.

This circle is not big, on the contrary, it is still very small, especially after the top leader of Dianjin invited him to the birthday party, there will be more invitations in the future. Going to bed early and waking up early, suddenly dragging him back to the luxury of young people, is really a bit overwhelming.

"When are we going to fly to L city?" Once again he didn't let himself get drunk, Zhu Jue was more tired than shooting night scenes for three consecutive days in the back seat of his car.

Awen gave him a sympathetic look: "There are still four days, and you will attend a very important temporary invitation tomorrow night."

Zhu Jue groaned: "Didn't you say that this is the last show tonight?"

Ah Wen was also at a loss: "Ji Jing notified me just now, and he said that he will send you off in person tomorrow, so I don't have to go."

"If he can't give me a reasonable explanation, I will definitely throw him into the ocean at that time—"

※※※

The next night.

"I don't understand why he came to me." Zhu Jue still couldn't figure it out when he was only one block away from the destination: "I don't know him at all, right? Not at all?"

The invitation tonight was unusual. Since Ah Wen took up his post, Ji Jing had rarely personally driven to escort Zhu Jue, but it was worth making an exception today.

He also looked very serious: "Absolutely not. You didn't even shoot in a film and television base before filming. The biggest space for coexistence is that you and him live in the same city."

The red light had already turned green, and Ji Jing looked at Zhu Jue reassuringly from the rearview mirror: "But it's not a grand banquet—you can see a lot of acquaintances at night, and Zhao Ying was also invited."

The car deftly shuttled through the traffic. They left a bit early, but they still caught up with the prelude to the evening rush hour. When they arrived at their destination, many people had already arrived.

City A is a place where every inch of land is expensive. Most of the houses bought by celebrities are placed in the city center, which is convenient for their daily work. However, there are also many celebrities who love villas in the suburbs. The host of this party is one of them. He owns a It is a villa with an extremely large area. This real estate was launched ten years ago, and it has been talked about until now. Many people are proud of getting one of the villas. Not to mention anything else, it is only the owner who circled it. A small lake is enough to covet.

Just don't look at the rippling lake, just look at the security measures of this villa complex, and there is a big gap between him and others.

The price of any house in this villa group is sky-high, and everyone in the circle knows that there is only one person who lives here.

Zhu Jue and Ji Jing looked up after getting off the car, and saw Yu Qiren standing at the door to greet them.

It is obviously a simple sweater and trousers. Even people who are deeply immersed in fashion cannot tell the brand of the clothes at first glance, but he stands there, taking it for granted, like a king The feeling of coming to one's own territory is justified.

Even in his previous life, Zhu Jue had only seen such an aura in those one or two people.

This is Yu Qiren who has occupied the top of the pyramid for more than 20 years. He is only 45 years old this year, but his eyes look like a wise man who is turbulent and bottomless.

Zhao Ying came one step ahead of them and was standing in front of Yu Qiren at this time, but they found out with horror that they didn't "see" Zhao Ying in their field of vision until Yu Qiren walked towards them.

How dejected and hopeless the people in his age must be!

But no one could say that he was arrogant and condescending. When he saw Zhu Jue, he even took the initiative to walk down the steps and greet him.

"I hope my invitation didn't seem too abrupt," Yu Qiren said with a smile, and there were some fine lines at the corners of his eyes when he laughed, "I just watched your Yin Xu two days ago, and the acting was great! I still laughed at Zhao Ying , saying he finally understands how we feel when we see him."

Ji Jing is not a few years younger than Yu Qiren, and his legendary nature is obvious to all in the circle, but now he follows Zhu Jue and is treated as a junior by the other party, and it doesn't feel a little awkward at all, let alone him, even Zhao Ying Standing next to Yu Qiren is like a child, extremely well-behaved.

There have long been rumors in the market that Yu Qiren and Zhao Ying have a very good relationship. It seems that it is not absurd. He was thinking about it, but Zhu Jue had already greeted the other party with a smile: "Although I really want to be humble, but the words come from As for you, it seems that I am sorry for my vanity if I don't accept it."

Yu Qiren laughed loudly: "Of course, I think so too."

A group of people walked into the house led by the owner while chatting.

To their surprise, they were greeted by a very normal hall. There was no wine, no food, and no essential elements for a party. It looked like a normal hall.

Even Zhao Ying left after they were seated.

Zhu Jue: "..."

"He was looking for information from me recently, and he just borrowed it today." Noticing their expressions, Yu Qiren explained without sincerity, and quickly brought the topic to another place: "Aren't you wondering why I invited you today?" Are you coming?"

What should be the answer at this time?Zhu Jue felt that it was better to remain silent...

However, Yu Qiren didn't seem to intend to get any response, and he said, "If you want, you can treat this as a private audition."

audition?

Before they could find a clue, an unexpected person walked in from the door.

Before Zhu Jue could react, Ji Jing had already screamed: "Kenny Pegg?!"

Even if you are face-blind to foreigners, if you stare at a face for nearly a month, Ji Jing can recognize him when he turned into gray, let alone Kenny Pegg's beard is very distinctive, like an old wizard in a fantasy novel The beard is the same, the iconic is stronger than himself!

"Simply put, I am also one of the investors in the movie you want to participate in. I don't want to vote against Kenny's choice, but I hope you can pass my request."

Yu Qiren said with a smile, the words "Powerful! Willful!" can be seen all over his body.

"Temporary interview, if you pass, I will vote for you, if you fail, I will close the door, how?"

Zhu Jue looked at the person who even closed the door very vividly, and was speechless for a while.

Ji Jing was fidgeting beside him, and quickly questioned Kenny Pegg: "But this—"

Kenny Pegg raised his hands: "I'm just accompanying the interview tonight, and I don't have the right to speak. Yu has the final say."

Yu Qiren smiled sincerely.

"How? Do you want to accept it?"

Not accepting it is tantamount to letting go of the best opportunity in life, and wasting the efforts of many people, especially Shen Yi.

Accept, auditioning in front of this almost mythologized person is probably more stressful than acting in front of a director.

but.

Zhu Jue shrugged: "Why not?"
