Top stream starts from trainee

""Witch"?" Han Cheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Why didn't I receive any inquiries?"

"Well, Gong Luan said that the director was worried that you would refuse directly, so he wanted to use his relationship to ask first, and then send a formal invitation letter." Lu Li replied.

Hearing this, Han Cheng shook his head and sighed, "No wonder people in the circle say that Li Cheng doesn't follow the rules, isn't that true?"

Lu Li flipped through the text on his phone. Gong Luan had already sent him part of the script, "The script looks pretty good, and the characters are quite challenging."

"Although I haven't read the novel "Witch", I have heard of it, but A Li, I still don't recommend you to follow it." Han Cheng said seriously, "In the past two years, movies and TV shows about fantasy and fairy tales have been published. Works, no matter whether it is a movie or a TV series, are all made badly, and the entire market environment is already very unfriendly."

Lu Li knew that Han Cheng was telling the truth, but he liked the script a little bit, "Maybe this one is an exception?"

"Okay, even if it's an exception," Han Cheng nodded and continued, "But I still don't recommend you take it, you have already filmed "Brocade" before, even if you want to brush up on nationality, one is enough , if the two TV dramas are filmed together, it may affect your style, not to mention that these two TV dramas are to save Yan Lezhan."

"If it gets out, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of controversy," Han Cheng said. "I heard that there are a few good movies that are being filmed recently, and some of them are quite suitable for you. Actually, we don't have to worry about it." Filming."

"Also, Ah Li, it takes a long time to film a TV series, let alone this kind of fantasy film. You know, you are about to take an art test, and that is the most important thing."

It's the end of October now, and the art exam will start in December. If you pass the joint exam and the school exam all the way, you'll have to be busy until March next year. At this time, you will pick up a class that will soon enter the group TV series is really not a wise choice.

Hearing what Han Cheng said, even though Lu Li liked it in his heart, he still knew which was more important. He pursed his lips and said regretfully, "Then let me talk to Gong Luan and ask him to help me refuse."

But who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, the phone in his hand rang.

Looking at the name on the screen, Lu Li was taken aback, and quickly picked up the phone, "Brother Tong?"

Xiang Tong's hearty voice came from the phone, "A Li, how are you doing, when are you going to have dinner together?"

Lu Li smiled and said, "Very good. For dinner, just call me in advance when you have time."

Not to mention the relationship between Xiang Tong and Chu Zhenyi, nor the care he took for himself when he was on the set, but because when "Beyond the Light" was released, he didn't care about the turmoil, and this meal should be eaten of.

"Okay, when I'm free, call Chu Zhenyi, let's have a good meal together," Xiang Tong said with a smile, "Ah Li, there is a guy here who wants to talk to you , I just build a bridge from the middle, as for the rest, you don't have to look at my face, just do whatever you want."

Lu Li jumped in his heart, and after looking at Han Cheng, he agreed, "Okay, Brother Tong, I understand."

Soon, a very magnetic male voice came from the phone, "Lu Li, I'm Chen Zhan."

……

"Okay, Teacher Chen, see you then."

Seeing Lu Li hang up the phone, Han Cheng frowned and asked, "Chen Zhan?"

Lu Li nodded, "Yes, he asked me to meet."

Han Cheng smiled wryly, "It's difficult for him to go out in person."

Even if the call today came from the director Li Cheng, they could refuse it, but if it was from Chen Zhan, they would have to give some face.

Chen Zhan is an actor of the Mesozoic era with both strength and good looks. He is a double actor. In terms of status, he is comparable to Xiang Tong. He is definitely a senior figure in the circle. More importantly, he is still one of the core members of the Hua circle. one.

Now people don't directly talk about the TV series, they just want to meet up, but this face has to be given no matter what.

Lu Li looked at the script again, and said a little strangely: "With his status, how can he accept this kind of TV series and still do his best?"

He is just a young actor who has just acted in two movies, and he has to think twice before accepting a TV drama agent, let alone someone like Chen Zhan, acting in a TV drama can almost use the word "down to earth" for him to describe.

Han Cheng frowned, feeling a headache, "This TV series has his investment, and it is said that the proportion is not low."

This is what he finds difficult. Since Chen Zhan has come forward in person, he definitely doesn't want to return empty-handed, "When will we meet?"

"Tomorrow afternoon."

Han Cheng sighed, and said helplessly, "Okay, I'll accompany you tomorrow. No matter what, I have to meet with you."

A teahouse in the afternoon the next day

This is a teahouse located in the old Hutong of Huadu. The surrounding buildings are a bit dilapidated, but they have a strong sense of history. Looking around, it seems that every cracked brick has an ancient story.

As soon as he entered the teahouse, Lu Li could smell the fragrance of tea in the air. Several tables were scattered in the hall, drinking tea and chatting without disturbing each other. The tea doctor shuttled nimbly through the long spout. Demonstrated superb technology.

In a daze, time seemed to slow down here, Lu Li only felt that his heart seemed to have calmed down a lot.

Han Cheng looked around, and when he found Chen Zhan sitting in the corner, he pulled Lu Li and led him over.

"Mr. Chen, hello, I'm Ah Li's manager Han Cheng, I'm sorry to keep you waiting." Han Cheng smiled and reached out to shake Chen Zhan's hand, and said politely.

"Hi, Teacher Chen, I'm Lu Li." Lu Li also bowed slightly to Chen Zhan.

Chen Zhan had already stood up to greet Lu Li and Han Cheng when they came in. After shaking hands with Han Cheng, he pointed to the opposite place and said with a smile, "Don't be polite, I came early. Get up, I'm the one who was abrupt this time, don't take offense, let's sit down and talk."

Chen Zhan is a very elegant man. Although he has entered middle age, time seems to have taken special care of him. In addition to giving him the charm that can only be produced after time, there are only a few shallow lines at the corners of his eyes that show with his age.

"I like this place very much. Whenever I am in a bad mood, I will come here to sit down. I can smell the tea fragrance in the air and drink a cup of tea quietly. No matter how irritable I am, I will calm down slowly. "Chen Zhan slowly picked up the teapot and poured tea into the two cups, "Come on, try it, the taste is still very good."

Han Cheng usually likes to drink tea. He picked it up and took a sip. He felt the aroma of the tea spread in his mouth instantly. After swallowing it, there was still a sweet aftertaste. He couldn't help but praise, "Good tea."

On the contrary, after Lu Li took a sip, he didn't feel anything wrong. Compared with it, milk tasted better.

Seeing Lu Li put down his teacup, Chen Zhan chuckled, "Young people don't like to drink tea anymore."

Lu Li said honestly, "I don't usually drink much."

"It's okay, if you don't like to drink, don't drink. I invite you to come here because it's quiet," Chen Zhan said, "I'll ask someone to bring you something else."

Lu Li shook his head, "Mr. Chen, no need, I'm not too thirsty."

"Okay, then let's get down to business," Chen Zhan said bluntly, "Actually, even if I don't tell you, you should be able to guess my purpose, right?"

Han Cheng put down the teacup in his hand and entered the negotiation mode, "Because of "Witch"?"

"Because of "Witch"." Chen Zhan said affirmatively, "You should have already understood the cause and effect, and I won't talk more nonsense."

"I really hope that Lu Li can participate in "The Witch." Chen Zhan looked at Lu Li with sincerity in his eyes, "Please believe me, this will definitely be a very good work."

Han Cheng was taken aback. He thought that Chen Zhan must have come to invite Lu Li, but he didn't expect his attitude to be so sincere.

It's so sincere that it doesn't seem like a conversation between a senior and a junior.

For a while, Han Cheng couldn't say anything to refuse.

Lu Li glanced at Han Cheng, and then asked, "Mr. Chen, if you don't mind, I would like to ask, there are so many actors with acting skills in this circle, why must I be the one?"

Chen Zhan smiled, "There are indeed many people with acting skills, but their reputation is similar to that of Yan Lezhan, and they must have acting skills, be worthy of the word 'exquisite beauty', and just happen to be able to join the group immediately. You are the only one in the entertainment industry."

"Actually, in my opinion, you are more suitable for this role than Yan Lezhan. If you can continue, it may be a blessing in disguise for us."

This evaluation came from Chen Zhan's mouth, so it can't be said that it is not low.

However, what has to be said still has to be said, Han Cheng smiled wryly and said: "Mr. Chen, we, A Li, just filmed a TV series not long ago, and it was also for Yan Lezhan."

"I know," Chen Zhan said calmly, "it was Lu Li who Yan Hongxuan recommended to me. If it wasn't for him, we would still be looking for actors everywhere."

Director Yan, are you doing something bad with good intentions?

"Since you know, you should also understand that we, A Li, are really not suitable to take another film that was originally scheduled to be Yan Lezhan, let alone a TV series," Han Cheng said tactfully, "If it spreads out, the impact may not be very good."

At that time, even if the filming is completed, some people will say that Lu Li has been reduced to the point where he can only take advantage of Yan Lezhan. If it wasn't for Yan Lezhan's accident, Lu Li would never have received such a scene.

It's not that A Li doesn't have any filming, for a TV series, there's really no need to put himself on fire.
