The Birth of the Best Director

Chapter 95 Gao Yuanyuan really listened to the advice and the over-age girl turned into a lazy goddess in the workplace

……

It takes about 13 hours to fly from New York to China.

Lu Zhiyuan could finally have a good sleep.

After taking melatonin, he put on an eye mask and went straight to sleep.

Reba and Xin Yukun sat next to him.

These two people are the kind of super humans who are very energetic and vibrant.

I don't even sleep on the plane.

He can stay awake for 13 hours with his eyes wide open.

"Reba, the seat I chose for you is good, isn't it?"

Lu Zhiyuan sat in the inner seat, and Xin Yukun sat in the aisle seat.

Reba was in front of them on the left. As long as she turned sideways, she could clearly see Lu Zhiyuan from less than two meters away.

"Brother Kun, can you please shut up?"

When Reba turned around, she happened to meet Xin Yukun's eyes, and when she heard Xin Yukun's joking tone, she blushed immediately.

Lu Zhiyuan might not have fallen asleep yet.

It would be so embarrassing if someone heard it.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, let's talk about something interesting."

Xin Yukun flipped through a fashion magazine for a while, but found it boring, so he decided to tease Reba: "Reba, do you know about Tang Guoqiang hooking up with a rich woman?"

what?
Hearing this, Reba looked over stupidly: "Tang Guoqiang, the one who played Zhuge Liang? He's also with a rich woman?"

Reba felt that her three views were challenged.

"There's nothing strange about this."

Xin Yukun calmly shared some gossip with Reba: "Back then, Elder Tang despised his wife for not being able to get him investment in a TV series, which prevented him from making a name for himself. So he turned around and hooked up with a rich woman. The rich woman got him 10 million yuan in investment, cast him as the leading male star, and starred in 'Yongzheng Dynasty'."

"From then on, Elder Tang became famous all over the country!"

"Around 2000, Elder Tang could earn over 1000 million yuan with just one advertisement. Furthermore, this man accepted all kinds of products, including those without quality assurance, quality certification, and quality assurance certificates, which caused countless complaints."

"You young people just think he's an old artist, but you don't know that old artists were also young once and had their own unseemly side."

Reba's head felt a little dizzy.

He never imagined that the Zhuge Liang, Emperor Yongzheng in his mind, had such a past?
Before Reba had time to digest Elder Tang's affairs, Xin Yukun revealed another key point: "Reba, do you know Jiang Wen?"

"know."

Reba nodded.

Jiang Wen is a big star and a famous director after all.

She is a newcomer to the entertainment industry, but she has heard of this person's name.

However, the topic Brother Kun is talking about today is gossip in the entertainment industry.

Reba couldn't help but react, her eyes widened: "No way, Jiang Wen is also with a rich woman?"

"He is also a human being. Is there any exception?"

Xin Yukun said calmly, "Guess who the rich woman is that he's hanging out with?"

"I can not guess it."

Reba immediately shook her head.

Her eyes, which were already big, widened even further.

The main reason was that Xin Yukun smiled very strangely, which made Reba feel that something was wrong.

"Qing milk."

Xin Yukun uttered two words mysteriously.

The two words "Qing Nai" seemed to contain the supreme law of the universe, which made Reba stand there in a daze, her soul almost shattered.

isn't it?
is it possible?

Is this scientific?

What's the age difference between the two... Jiang Wen was born in 63, and Qing Nai was born in 50. A 13-year age gap is more than a generation!

This is Qing milk!

Jiang Wen, you have such a big appetite!

No wonder he could become a great director, he is really amazing.

"Brother Kun, why are you telling me this today?"

Whether it is Elder Tang or Jiang Wen, they are both respected seniors in the entertainment industry, and both of them have such a past that they cannot bear to look back on.

Reba felt that Xin Yukun had something else to say.

"Reba, Ayuan brought you out from your hometown. I have watched you grow up and I am your elder."

"I think before you start your own studio, I need to teach you some principles of social interaction. Or rather, the truth."

"In short, for those in this circle, don't be fooled by their superficial appearances, how righteous they appear, how righteous they speak, how noble and upright the roles they play, or how artistic the films they make are."

“It’s all bullshit.”

"These are all their personalities, for outsiders to see."

"You don't have to take them seriously. Or treat them like idols or anything like that."

“You can learn from them and imitate their path to success, but don’t believe what they say.”

After a round of complaints, Xin Yukun said with finality, "In this circle, no matter what you do or say, it all boils down to two words: making money."

After saying this, Xin Yukun threw several gossip magazines in his hand to Reba.

Reba took it blankly and glanced at it.

Zhang Shaohan's mother publicly accused her daughter of drug and alcohol abuse, and claimed that she was instigated by her friends to "abandon her parents."

Zhao Wei frequently missed public events and traveled with wealthy businessmen. Sources suggested that she might be secretly married and pregnant.

Zeng Yike's "sheep voice" and creative ability caused a split among the judges, and one contestant withdrew from the competition due to dissatisfaction with his advancement.

……

If it were yesterday, Reba might have read the contents of these gossip magazines with great interest for a while.

However, after listening to Xin Yukun's revelations about Elder Tang and Jiang Wen, Reba felt that these were all child's play and could not cause any fluctuations in her heart at all.

"Yes, that's it."

"To be a big star, you have to laugh at everything, wondering what shit is worth writing about. So that's it?"

Xin Yukun is very optimistic about Reba.

They are planning to train Reba to be the company's money-making tool.

On the one hand, he used Lu Zhiyuan, the literary and artistic male god, to help Reba strive to become a rich woman.

On the other hand, he asked Reba to accept the countless dirty and weird things in the entertainment industry, so that she could be mentally prepared.

Otherwise, Reba is a little too cheerful and lively. If she encounters anything in the future, she will easily become depressed.

……

13 hours later.

The plane landed at Yanjing Airport.

Lu Zhiyuan stretched and slept soundly.

After packing his luggage and getting off the plane, the Starry Sky Company specially arranged several cars to pick Lu Zhiyuan up.

Jing Tian didn't come because she was filming in Dalian.

But Zhao Shanshan came.

"Ayuan, thank you for your hard work."

Lu Zhiyuan looked haggard, had lost a lot of weight, had pale skin, and had bloodshot eyes.

That feeling of fragility, like a sickly beauty, made Zhao Shanshan feel a little distressed.

"Driver, drive to Dongshan Villa." In addition to Zhao Shanshan, there were also Xin Yukun and Reba in the car.

However, Zhao Shanshan did not treat the two as outsiders. She smiled and said to Lu Zhiyuan, "Ayuan, during the month you were in the United States, Tiantian very attentively hired a professional housekeeping company to clean the house inside and out."

"Besides that, we hired a moving company to move the things you left in the old neighborhood to your new house in Dongshan Villa."

"I waited outside the airport on purpose because I was worried you'd go back to your old neighborhood. But when you got home, everything was gone... I was really afraid you'd call the police."

Jing Tian and Lu Zhiyuan became boyfriend and girlfriend, and Lu Zhiyuan became her brother-in-law.

Although Zhao Shanshan felt that Jing Tian's love for Lu Zhiyuan was a bit frivolous, she had been in contact with Lu Zhiyuan for so long that she still had some understanding of his character.

If Lu Zhiyuan didn't like Jing Tian, ​​then no matter what Jing Tian did, this cold, robot-like man would not say such sweet words at that birthday party.

Who says the weather is not good? The wind and rain are waiting for one person!
This sentence is really beautiful.

It made Jing Tian very happy and intoxicated.

This kind of cold man's occasional gentleness is really like poison, addictive.

Because of this sentence, Zhao Shanshan's attitude towards Lu Zhiyuan became very close.

"Sister Shanshan, how's Tiantian? Is filming 'My Beautiful Boss' going well for her?"

Lu Zhiyuan asked a few questions casually.

Zhao Shanshan smiled and shook her head. "Not really. The makeup team is quite lame. But there's nothing we can do about it. This is already considered a mainstream makeup team in China. Unless, you design a makeup look for Tiantian."

When Zhao Shanshan saw Jing Tian's makeup that day, her eyes went dark, but she didn't say anything, mainly because she knew very well that the mainstream makeup teams in the country were at this level.

You can't expect them to match Hollywood.

We can't even expect these ordinary makeup artists to be as familiar with the detailed features of the human body such as bones and skin as Lu Zhiyuan.

He is familiar with the art styles and art schools of various series.

In an instant, you can create a makeup look that best suits the other person based on their facial contours, skin condition, and real age.

"Speaking of this..."

Zhao Shanshan suddenly thought of something and smiled at Lu Zhiyuan: "Do you still remember that day at the celebration party, when you complained that Gao Yuanyuan was over-age?"

There's something exciting to watch!

Upon hearing this, Xin Yukun and Reba turned their heads and pricked up their ears, wanting to hear some explosive content.

"remember."

Lu Zhiyuan nodded.

He felt that he was not wrong, at most it was a little offensive to Gao Yuanyuan.

But if the other party accepts her advice and redesigns her makeup, it will be of great benefit to her career.

Compared to my own slight offense, Gao Yuanyuan should value her own career more, right?
Lu Zhiyuan doesn't care if the other party is petty.

At worst, we’ll never meet again.

"Gao Yuanyuan is a love-brained person and often gets deceived, but this time, she was smart for once."

"After she returned, she followed your advice and had the styling team change her makeup. She abandoned her oxygen goddess persona and adopted a more laid-back, professional style."

"After a while, you'll see that her new look in the commercial is truly stunning. It's a real eye-opener!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Shanshan couldn't help but admire Lu Zhiyuan.

The aesthetic taste of art students is different.

After all, from another perspective, makeup is the use of various cosmetics to paint on people's faces.

It can also be considered a branch of fine arts.

But among these makeup artists, are there any who have studied fine arts seriously and have artistic thinking?
Generally, people with good grades and smart brains will not become makeup artists.

So, sometimes, the requirements for makeup artists really can’t be too high.

"Director Lu, I heard you've returned to China. The advice you gave me on my makeup last time was very effective. Since I changed my look, my commercial value has definitely increased significantly."

"I want to thank you in person and treat you to a meal. Can you give me a chance?"

Zhao Shanshan was over there, sharing interesting stories with Lu Zhiyuan. When she mentioned that Gao Yuanyuan was a person who listened to advice, Lu Zhiyuan's phone shook a few times.

He glanced down and saw that he had received several text messages.

It was sent by Gao Yuanyuan.

"As long as you like it. But, forget about the meal."

In front of Zhao Shanshan, Lu Zhiyuan righteously rejected Gao Yuanyuan's invitation to dinner.

What a joke!
You invited me to dinner in front of my girlfriend's distant cousin?

If I agreed, how low would my IQ be?

Gao Yuanyuan was not surprised to be rejected by Lu Zhiyuan. She kept trying and sent another text message.

"I heard that your movie 'Labyrinth of the Heart' opens on Friday. I've booked three screenings at Wanda Cinemas and am inviting fans to see it as a token of my gratitude. You can't refuse, right?"

Gao Yuanyuan was determined to express her gratitude.

Since treating him to a meal wasn’t an option, she booked the entire theater and gave Lu Zhiyuan some box office revenue.

"Thank you."

The other party offered box office revenue, and Lu Zhiyuan really couldn't refuse.

Because he still has to rely on the box office to get the number one spot!

……

At Gao Yuanyuan's home.

When she heard Lu Zhiyuan say "Thank you", she felt relieved.

"Just accept it."

"Otherwise, those reporters would hound me every day, saying I had a conflict with a famous director, and my future career would be difficult!"

After complaining for a few words, Gao Yuanyuan couldn't help but feel emotional.

"Hey, you have a really weird temper. You complained about me to my face, and I thought you were scolding me and deliberately humiliating me. You almost made me cry."

"Who knows, you really do this for my own good."

"After I changed my makeup according to your style, my charm has increased dramatically."

Standing up, Gao Yuanyuan walked to the mirror and looked at her new makeup.

The girlish feeling has faded, bright colors are no longer used, and all the lines are no longer sharp, but natural curves are used instead.

I also changed my lipstick to the bean paste series recommended by Lu Zhiyuan, and then deliberately used my fingers to smudge it on my lips, as if I had been kissed, which was really fascinating.

She was no longer as tense as before, but rather in a naturally relaxed state.

But in this natural relaxation, it does not appear casual or lazy, but instead has an indescribable sense of refinement.

For a 30-year-old woman, this kind of makeup does not appear deliberate, but is intellectual and elegant. It is simply an S-level makeup tailor-made for her temperament and appearance.

Recently, she has charmed many male artists with her new professional lazy style.

When her ex-boyfriend saw her makeup, he wanted to change his mind, dumped the temporary mistress on the crew, and came to her to beg her to get back together.

piss off!
I am no longer the person I used to be!
"I'm only 30 years old. I'm actually quite pretty. I'm better looking than Jing Tian, ​​right?"

"He's being sarcastic and mean to me on purpose, but with genuine kindness. Maybe he's trying to get my attention this way?"

"I heard that Liu Yifei is also completely obsessed with him. She often goes to the New York set to watch him film."

The literary and artistic male god is really fascinating.

This guy Lu Zhiyuan, in terms of music, has made Zhang Yadong afraid to release a new album.

In the film industry, winning the Palme d'Or meant that even Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou had to come and support him.

He came up with an idea to make a science fiction movie, which led to a technology giant like Apple giving him a direct sponsorship fee of 1000 million US dollars.

The only drawback is that he is a little young.

But if you think about it carefully, this is also an advantage... Young people have never tried any tricks before, so just lower your status, find a good opportunity, and flirt with him casually. Maybe he will take the bait?

By the time……

Hey Hey!
