Good Samaritan Mr Yu (The Warmhearted Mr. Yu) - Chapter 5
“Sister Mei, why are you here?” Shen Yu pushed open the dressing room door, and saw that May Fei was really sitting in it, which was really strange. Among the several artists under Mei Fei, Shen Yu is very well-behaved, not going up and down. At the moment, his filming has not been finished, and there is no other announcement. How could Mei Fei suddenly come to visit the class?
“Sit down,” Mei Fei greeted Shen Yu to sit down and explained, “I brought Bai Zhu Zhen to an event nearby. I happened to be free. Come over and tell you something.”
Bai Zhuzhen is the best artist under Mephie, and he is also a brother of their company. He can already be regarded as a half-liner. Most of Mephie’s thoughts are placed on him.
“Sister Mei trouble, you say.” Shen Yu confirmed that there was no problem, settled down, didn’t care about Mayphy’s obvious eccentricity, and looked at Mayphy with a serious smile.
Shen Yu is a sensible person, with a clear mind in his heart and not being a demon. There are not such smart people with self-knowledge in the entertainment industry. Mayphy thought with satisfaction, and was more affirmed of his decision.
“In the morning’s news, Zhong Simo’s studio is going to cooperate with Tianchen to make a commercial film. I have an audition opportunity. You can try it.”
“What did you say?” Shen Yu was stunned for a while, subconsciously confirmed.
May Fei was not surprised by his reaction. She smiled and took out a few pages of a4 paper from her bag, shook it in her hand, and waited for Shen Yu to calm down.
In this circle, anyone who hears Zhong Simo’s name will not be calm. The man behind these three words represents the highest level of the current Chinese film scene. In the declining environment of Chinese films, he alone has propped up half of the sky on the international stage.
He is stubborn, he is stubborn, and his tongue is poisonous, but none of these can conceal the light of his genius. After ten years in the industry, he directed seven films, each of which is a masterpiece that can leave a strong mark in the history of art.
Some people ridiculed that Zhong Simo’s success story was based on his ability. Since he appeared in people’s sight, he has done countless things that have violated the taboos of the entertainment industry, seeming to be willful and reckless, but every time he is overcome by his extraordinary strength, until he develops into the owner of the most effective studio in the entertainment industry. Say nothing.
That man should have a natural adventurous spirit, as well as innate talent and luck. He is regarded as a **** by countless frustrated people struggling in the weird big mud in the entertainment circle, even if those people have never seen him.
“Director Zhong wants to make a commercial film” Shen Yu puzzled. This seems to be inconsistent with Zhong Simo’s image of pursuing art.
May Fei couldn’t help shaking his head when he heard the words, “You really think Zhong Simo is a madman who only knows the pursuit of art. If this were the case, he wouldn’t be where he is today.”
“Zhong Simo’s ambition is definitely not to make several films. Otherwise, why should a director’s studio spend so much effort on commercial operation capabilities in recent years, the mainland commercial film market has risen, and many foreign filmmakers have taken the opportunity to make money.” Zhong Simo has a unique advantage, it is impossible not to want to share the pie.”
Shen Yu rarely took the initiative to contact the secrets circulating in the circle, and few people told him that he suddenly heard Mephie commenting on Zhong Simo and couldn’t help asking, “The characteristic of commercial films is that fast food pursues the greatest commercial value. Would you be willing to give up your bottom line of shooting for these?”
Those who are well-known throughout the Internet, Zhong Simo’s almost perverted requirements in casting and shooting will always be groundless.
“The film market nowadays is no longer an era in which a few small flowers and grass can support the box office. People are eager to see good films that really suit their own tastes. Do you think that with Zhong Simo’s ability, if he deliberately caters to the audience As for the bottom line, you can see who you are working with.”
Shen Yu was never stupid, and he understood immediately when May Fei mentioned it. Tianchen Film Co., Ltd., which cooperates with Zhong Simo, is a well-known and established film production company in the circle. It produced many popular films in the early years, but in recent years, the quality of the films has been inferior due to various reasons. They are not short of money or resources, only a film that is good enough to regain their reputation.
Zhong Simo cooperates with Tianchen, and each takes what he needs. Zhong Simo needs Tianchen’s funds and publicity resources to test the waters for himself, and Tianchen needs Zhong Simo to restore his reputation. Under this premise, Tianchen will certainly respect Zhong Simo’s freedom of shooting to the greatest extent. And just as Sister Mei said
“You have to remember that Zhong Simo’s mind is not simple, he is one of the most unprovoked people in this circle.”
“The scale of the audition is very large. Zhong Simo wants to play it for real. I got a spot. Zhu Zhen’s schedule conflict can’t be adjusted. You can try it. The audition will be a week later, and the mentality will be stable. It’s normal. There are a lot of people following this wave, and if you perform well, you should just hang up in front of the big guys.”
Mei Fei confessed a few words and hurried away. On the other side, Bai Zhu Zhen was the focus of her work. If Bai Zhu Zhen hadn’t taken over the schedule conflict of the star drama, the chance of this trial would definitely not fall into the hands of Shen Yu. The reason is simple and cruel. In the entertainment industry, the more popular talents deserve the better resources, while the lower-level people can only struggle to look up, hoping that one day they will be lucky.
Shen Yu sat in the empty dressing room, the costume was not faded, a piece of long hair fell on the white paper left by Mayphy, silent.
Mephie’s meaning is very obvious, Shen Yu Jiucheng couldn’t pass the trial, and this is also the fact that with Zhong Simo’s critical eyes, how could he fall in love with a mediocre star, Shen Yu, who has not become popular until now, but still can’t help it. There is a little bit of unquenchable fantasy in my heart.
