The career system at Huayu Entertainment is too gentlemanly.
Chapter 25. When you're traveling, your identity is what you give yourself.
Inside the speeding BMW Mini, Chen Yan bent over and flipped through the script.
Zeng Siyu focused on driving, occasionally glancing at Chen Yan.
After a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Chen Yan, is this script interesting?"
Chen Yan snapped out of his reverie and said with a subtle expression, "It's full of nonsensical elements, which makes it quite funny."
Zeng Siyu raised an eyebrow and glanced at the script cover, which read "Python Horror".
"Isn't this a thriller? How come there are nonsensical plot points?"
"Uh...it's poorly written."
Zeng Siyu couldn't help but burst out laughing.
It seems that girl doesn't have many good resources.
She wants to steal my man with a terrible script.
snort!
The script for Anaconda was indeed terrible.
Despite being marketed as Anaconda, it's actually a zombie movie.
Just when you think you're about to fight zombies, it turns into a rich young lady stealing your family fortune.
In the end, even the zombies turned out to be people in disguise.
Chen Yan could tell that this was imitating Mr. Zombie's style.
The imitation was a mess, but the messiness was quite interesting.
Anyway, Chen Yan couldn't help but laugh after reading it.
The movie will probably be heavily criticized after it's finished.
It deserves a maximum rating of 3 on Douban, no more!
Zeng Siyu couldn't help but say, "The script is so bad, you really shouldn't have accepted it."
Chen Yan said with a smile, "Senior, you should become famous as early as possible. I have no background or connections, so it's good enough that I can get roles. I should thank Jing Tian."
Jing Tian?
Was that pretty girl named Jing Tian?
Zeng Siyu said calmly, "If you find a talent agency and have a professional agent, you won't have to worry about not getting roles."
Chen Yan glanced at her and thought, "Aren't you the best agent?"
He coughed lightly and said, "Sister Siyu, I've heard that many talent agencies exploit their artists. It's not that easy to find a good agent."
Zeng Siyu's eyes flickered slightly, and a thought suddenly popped into her mind.
If I become Chen Yan's agent, will I be able to get the benefits of being close to him?
Looking at Chen Yan's almost perfect profile, Zeng Siyu still felt a sense of crisis.
Chen Yan is so handsome, he's bound to make it big in the entertainment industry.
I wonder how many women will pounce on me then.
I feel so insecure when I'm not around to keep an eye on things!
The car soon arrived at the Feilong Base in Huairou.
There are many Ming and Qing dynasty buildings here, making it perfect for filming period dramas set in the Republican era.
Chen Yan was a little excited; he was finally going to join the film crew!
The hardest part for new actors is taking that first step.
If you start as an extra, it might take ten years to get ahead.
How many celebrities in China started out as extras?
Although Anaconda was a terrible movie, he was still the second male lead!
After this movie is finished, he might get offers to act in other movies.
Just as Chen Yan was about to go find Jing Tian, Zeng Siyu stopped him.
"If you go like this, the director won't take you seriously. I'll talk to the director for you later."
Chen Yan was somewhat surprised, not expecting Zeng Siyu to get into character so quickly.
Great! Now we have an assistant!
And incidentally, he can also use the tiger's power to intimidate others!
Not far from Chen Yan, Jing Tian also got off the bus.
Jing Tian waved to Chen Yan, signaling him to follow.
"Squad leader! This way, I'll take you to see the director."
Chen Yan glanced at Zeng Siyu before walking towards Jing Tian.
Ten minutes later, Chen Yan met the director with Jing Tian.
The director's name is Li Bingliang, an unknown director from the Hong Kong entertainment circle.
Chen Yan had heard Jing Tian mention that this director had participated in the filming of many horror films in the Hong Kong film industry.
This trip to the mainland is to attract investment and try to make a name for myself.
Unfortunately, the script was a complete mess.
Upon seeing Jing Tian, Li Bingliang immediately came up to greet him politely.
Jing Tian is the financial backer of this movie!
"Ms. Jing Tian, hello, hello. You must have had a long journey."
Li Bingliang speaks with a slight Cantonese accent.
However, Chen Yan could tell that he spoke Mandarin, and quite well at that!
If Chen Yan is not mistaken, Li Bingliang must be one of the people from the mainland who smuggled themselves to Hong Kong in the 1980s and 90s.
This is someone deliberately speaking Cantonese-accented Mandarin to act like a big shot.
In this world, your identity is truly something you create yourself.
After exchanging a few words with Li Bingliang, Jing Tian pointed at Chen Yan and said, "Director, this is Chen Yan, our class monitor!"
"Hello, Director Li!" Chen Yan greeted him with a smile.
Li Bingliang nodded and said with a smile, "I know you, Sun Brother."
After saying that, he turned to look at Jing Tian, preparing to continue his flattery.
At this moment, Zeng Siyu stepped forward and took the initiative to introduce herself.
"Hello director, I'm Zeng Siyu, an editor from Youthful Generation. I'm here to follow up on and interview Chen Yan. Is this convenient for you?"
As soon as Zeng Siyu finished speaking, Li Bingliang's eyes lit up.
"Welcome, welcome! You're Editor Zeng, right? On behalf of the production team, I welcome you to this interview."
Li Bingliang then turned to Chen Yan and praised, "Little Sun is such a handsome heartthrob!"
Chen Yan smiled awkwardly, feeling that he needed to learn the art of face-changing from the director.
Zeng Siyu watched this scene with a smile, and secretly winked at Chen Yan.
Sister, you're pretty good, aren't you? You've helped raise your social standing.
Chen Yan smiled gratefully at her.
That's how Huang Mao is; all his pretentious behavior comes from women.
Because Zeng Siyu was with him, Chen Yan's treatment improved dramatically.
Li Bingliang was incredibly enthusiastic, constantly introducing the film crew and himself to Chen Yan and Zeng Siyu.
He desperately wants to be famous!
This movie had no promotional resources whatsoever, and now that magazines are interviewing us, I can't be happier.
Soon Chen Yan met the other lead actors.
Liu Jiahui, Ba Liangjin, and a second female lead named Ke Min.
The person Ke Min knows is not the same person as the one Chen Yan knows.
[Ding~ Ordinary actress detected. Host, please conduct a sexual harassment with her!]
Chen Yan completely ignored the task.
He's just a second male lead who snuck in; what right does he have to sexually harass actresses?
After Chen Yan introduced himself to everyone, he looked around but couldn't see a single reporter.
Today is the opening ceremony, and there isn't a single reporter here?
No wonder Li Bingliang was so enthusiastic towards Zeng Siyu!
It's one thing that there are no reporters, but the real problem is that there are hardly any crew members either!
Chen Yan glanced at the photographer's camera and fell into despair.
An old-fashioned 35mm film camera?!
This machine must be from ten years ago!
Even the graduation short film produced by a senior at Beijing Film Academy has a better production team than this film crew.
Chen Yan felt a chill run down her spine and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, grabbed Jing Tian.
"How much money did you invest? The production team is terrible!"
Jing Tian shook his head, confused, and said, "I don't know, there are quite a lot of people in the crew, aren't there?"
Chen Yan: "......" Is the young lady's starting point really that low?
No wonder they later spent 150 million to film the Warring States period!
Soon they were ready to start the machine, and they burned incense and prayed to the machine god!
Although the film crew looked unprofessional, their incense burning and prayer were quite professional.
Hong Kong filmmakers love to play this game.
Chen Yan also stepped forward to worship the gods and burn incense.
Zeng Siyu stood at the back of the crowd and took several photos with her camera.
This is Chen Yan's first film, so it must be recorded!
When I get home tonight, I'll post it on the youth blog and forum.
She even had the title ready.
