Entertainment: I am the peak

Chapter 275 Brother-in-law's job must be done well
"Director Li, what a coincidence."

How could it be so strange? Li Qiutang left the Busan Film Festival early and still met Yang Zi at Busan Gimhae Airport.

The two were on the same flight.

"Haha, yes, what a coincidence."

Yang Zi then began to compliment Li Qiutang on how popular she was in Busan, saying that Li Qiutang "brought glory to us Chinese and to Chinese films."

It's fine to just read these words in the media, but if they were really spoken in person, Li Qiutang would be too embarrassed to respond.

"Hehe." Li Qiutang had no problem with Yang Zi, but he really didn't want to pay attention to him now.

One of his important tasks in promoting "Legend of the White Snake" in Busan was to respond to negative reviews from domestic audiences. Now, he asked Li Qiutang in a familiar manner: "Director, what do you think is wrong with our film?" Yang Zi was not so arrogant as to think that his film had only advantages.

But Li Qiutang said, "I'm sorry, I haven't seen your film." Then he asked him in a very murderous way, "What's the name of your film?"

Yang Zi didn't think Li Qiutang did it on purpose. It was understandable that Li Qiutang was so busy that she didn't pay attention.

Li Qiutang originally wanted Yang Zi to give up, saying, "I haven't even seen your movie, so stop talking about it."

But Yang Zi didn't think so. He actually began to introduce "Legend of White Snake" to Li Qiutang.

At this time, Li Qiutang's assistant came into play: "Director, I'm going to the bathroom."

Li Qiutang stood up: "That's great, I'll go to the bathroom too."

Yang Zi finally stopped talking.

Then, Li Qiutang never came back until he and his assistant appeared just before boarding the plane.

As soon as she got on the plane, Li Qiutang put on headphones and an eye mask, not wanting to give Yang Zi a chance to talk to her.

I should have bought economy class earlier.

…………

A few days after Li Qiutang returned to China, the wrap-up press conference of "Palace Lock and Bead Curtain" was held in Beijing.

The next day, Li Qiutang picked up Shu Chang, and Liu Xiaoli was also in the car.

"Since I promised Xixi that I would help you, I will definitely do what I said." Li Qiutang drove, Shu Chang sat in the passenger seat, and Liu Xiaoli sat in the back. "I'll take you to meet a director. I can't say whether I will use you or not. Just do your best."

Liu Xiaoli also took great pains to dissuade Shu Chang from plastic surgery, saying, "Take your time, you are still young. If you have surgery on your face, you will never get it back."

Li Qiutang also knew that it was annoying for her and Liu Xiaoli to chatter like this in the car, but they could only do so.

Li Qiutang drove for half an hour and brought the two people into a residential area.

The three of them went to their destination. Shu Chang was not an ungrateful person. Li Qiutang had already put the resources in front of her, so there was no way she would not take them.

Doesn't she just think that she can't get any roles because she's not good-looking?

"Be more natural later. You are an experienced actor, so you don't need me to teach you how to communicate with the director."

"Yeah, I know, thank you."

Li Qiutang smiled and said, "Don't let your imagination run wild. Just thank me by not letting Yifei and Auntie worry about them." Li Qiutang knocked on the door.

The person who opened the door was director Xue Xiaolu.

Who else did I think it was? Shu Chang relaxed. She had guest-starred in "The Beauty Inside" and was not unfamiliar with Xue Xiaolu.

Xue Xiaolu welcomed the three people in.

"Qiutang told me in advance." Xue Xiaolu was very direct to Shu Chang, "Who is older, you or Yifei?"

"How many months older is Yifei?" Shu Chang said.

Xue Xiaolu smiled at Li Qiutang and said, "You are a very good brother-in-law."

Li Qiutang said: "You just like to make fun of me, let's talk about business."

The real thing is that Xue Xiaolu will start shooting a romantic film after the New Year next year, starring Tang Wei and Wu Xiubo. There is a female supporting role in the film, who is a lesbian with a hot temper. The role is not bad, it depends on whether Shu Chang is willing to play it. You need to mix in the circle to mix in the film and television industry, especially to make movies, you need to mix in the circle even more.

Many roles can be given to you, him, or anyone else, but you are in my circle, so I will give it to you. It's that simple.

There are so many things that must be done with you.

This film is still a collaboration between Xue Xiaolu and Enlight Films, and Qiu Tian simply participated in it.

I didn't bring any money into the group. Even if Qiu Qiu didn't invest, relying on the friendship between Li Qiutang, Xue Xiaolu and Boss Jiang, I believed they would give face if I could introduce someone to play a supporting role.

Why wouldn't Shu Chang be unwilling? She basically has no movies to act in. Xue Xiaolu is a young director who is rising rapidly. Many people want to act in her movies but can't.

Shu Chang doesn't care whether she plays a supporting role or not. There is only one actor like Liu Yifei, and other TV actors who appear on the big screen all start out as supporting roles or side roles.

After sitting with Xue Xiaolu for an hour, Shu Chang left contentedly with a script called "Beautiful Fate" (original name).

"Are you satisfied?" Li Qiutang asked.

Of course I was satisfied. I got a role in a movie right after I finished filming.

It feels so good to have someone feed you, and Liu Yifei experienced the same happiness.

Liu Xiaoli also taught her to act well.

Li Qiutang said: "You entered the industry earlier than me, so I won't say anything. You have to seize the opportunity yourself."

Liu Xiaoli also agreed, "Yes, you understand the truth better than us."

Shu Chang smiled and said, "Xixi is older than me, but I have never called her sister. Today, I accept you as my brother-in-law."

Liu Xiaoli laughed first from the back.

"What a mess." Li Qiutang felt embarrassed.

In fact, the gift given by this brother-in-law was greater than Shu Chang had imagined. Shu Chang had tried hard but couldn't get a role in a movie. Li Qiutang easily got her a supporting role in the film directed by Xue Xiaolu with just one sentence.

First send Liu Xiaoli home, and then send Shu Chang back.

In the car, Shu Chang said, "Yi Fei has been in the United States for more than a month, don't you want to go and see her?"

Li Qiutang said, "You are not a child, what are you looking at? Just make a few more phone calls." First, Li Qiutang is very busy at this time, and second, he does not want to take a long-distance flight because it is too tiring. "What did she say to you?"

Before Liu Yifei left, Li Qiutang promised to visit her once a month, but Li Qiutang broke her promise.

Shu Chang said: "How can I tell you my sister's private conversation?" She is quite loyal.

Then he asked, "Will you come again in a few days?"

"Why are you here? What are you doing?" Li Qiutang was a little confused.

"Aunt Xiaoli moved. Didn't she tell you?"

"She didn't tell me such a big thing." Not only Liu Xiaoli didn't tell him, but Liu Yifei didn't tell him either. "Where are we moving to?"

"Haidian, Xishan Villa District, Qingqin Villa. Yifei and her aunt like the yard there. They bought it last year and will move in next week. Yifei asked me to help."

"Tsk, she didn't tell me." Li Qiutang swore that he really didn't know that Liu Yifei bought a new house.

"You know what she told me? She said the new house is big, has good greenery, and good privacy, so if she buys it, you don't have to buy it."

Li Qiutang was a little angry at first, but now she is no longer angry: "What does it have to do with me? I am still living in a hotel apartment."

"Still pretending, still pretending!" Shu Chang laughed, "I don't know what kind of magic potion you gave her to make her so devoted to you."

When Shu Chang got home, she reminded Li Qiutang: "Don't forget to arrive early next Wednesday morning."

"Okay, got it."

Li Qiutang decided to ask Liu Yifei.
