Feng Xiaogang didn't ask Luo Xiaofan to stay. He just nodded and then walked toward the stable with Zhao Liying, who was as nervous as a quail. They chatted while walking.
Feng Xiaogang said," Your name is Zhao Liying?”
Zhao Liying nodded nervously." Yes, it's me.”
Feng Xiaogang smiled." You don't have to be so nervous. We're just having a casual chat.”
Zhao Liying became even more nervous." Please, please."”
Feng Xiaogang laughed." Hehe, you little girl. Actually, I called you here today to talk to you about the commercial that I'm going to shoot next. I've seen your file. You're just 16 years old this year?”
Zhao Liying didn't understand why Feng Xiaogang was concerned about her age, so she quickly nodded." I just had my 16th birthday and will be 17 soon."”
Feng Xiaogang nodded." My daughter is one year older than you. She's 18 this year and has just entered her first year of university.”
Zhao Liying didn't know how to respond to this, so she chose to remain silent.
Feng Xiaogang shook his head and continued," Hehe, that's strange. I'm a little talkative today. Actually, I didn't need to use my personal time to call you over to chat with you. I just wanted to tell you that the path of the entertainment industry is not as easy as you think.”
Zhao Liying tried her best to listen and absorb the knowledge like a sponge. She knew that today's speech would be of great help to her future career as an actress, and even her life.
Feng Xiaogang continued," Zhao Liying, you're younger than my daughter, so you should call me Uncle. The reason I called you here today was because of your performance on stage yesterday. I was surprised. To be honest, I've seen too many child stars who became famous in their teens, but I haven't seen too many of them like you.”
Zhao Liying thought to herself that it was all her cousin's fault, but she couldn't say it out loud. She just nodded and remained silent.
Feng Xiaogang continued," Actually, to tell you the truth, this time, when this Yahoos Star Search asked me to be a judge, I didn't even want to give them face at all. This lousy talent show, you, he| Why did Mom look for me? However, I reluctantly agreed after Yahoo agreed to pay me 10 million yuan to shoot an advertisement. I was too lazy to attend the first few episodes, but I managed to handle the later ones. However, I didn't expect to meet a child like you in the end. The show you and your cousin performed was really interesting. Was that your idea?”
Zhao Liying quickly shook her head." The script was written by Cousin, the song was written by Cousin, and the video was recorded by Cousin. I'm in charge of acting, and the rest belongs to him.”
Feng Xiaogang grinned." Then the mute you played was also made by your cousin?" What are you two thinking? You're so young, it's not him| Mom is playing a tragedy."
Zhao Liying smiled." Director Feng, I'm nervous when I speak on stage. If I have lines, I won't be able to express myself smoothly. That's why my cousin designed the role of a mute girl for me according to my characteristics.”
Feng Xiaogang laughed." Hey, that's interesting. Design characters based on actors? This is something that only an expert screenwriter would do. Your cousin is really…|Mom is interesting."
Zhao Liying smiled and nodded.
Feng Xiaogang lit a cigarette." Hehe, let's not talk about anything else. Let's continue with the collaboration. You don't have a management company to work with now, so I'll recommend you to my boss, Huayi Entertainment. As for the plot of the commercial that we'll be working with next, it's actually about an unknown rich boss from a rural area who is despised by the descendants of a noble family. He wants to find his ancestral home to see if there are any nobles but finds out that there aren't any. In the end, he finds his ancestral home through a search on yahoo. In the end, it's just him| Mom is advertising for the company, do you understand?”
Strangely enough, if it was a normal person, people who kept cursing would definitely be annoying. However, when these curses came out of Feng Xiaogang's mouth, it felt so normal. It was as if there was something missing in the sentence without cursing.
After listening to Feng Xiaogang's explanation, Zhao Liying quickly nodded." Director Feng, I understand the meaning of this story.”
Feng Xiaogang nodded." Alright, girl, as long as you understand. I won't talk to you anymore. I don't know much about signing contracts and funding. When the time comes, I'll get the producer to tell you. The only role I can give you is the role. Girl, I'm now inviting you to be the female lead of my new advertisement,'The Kneeling Clan'. Are you interested?”
Feng Xiao had just finished speaking when his expression suddenly became serious and solemn. His voice was low and very formal. Zhao Liying was stunned when she heard this and subconsciously nodded in agreement.
Suddenly, her cousin's words flashed across Zhao Liying's mind. She stopped herself and shook her head." Director Feng, thank you for your kindness, but I can't accept your invitation."”
Feng Xiaogang was expressionless, but his voice was slightly raised." Oh, why?”
Zhao Liying tried hard to recall what her cousin Luo Xiaofan had taught her before," Because, because, because my acting skills are not good enough to take on the important role of the female lead. This important position should be left to experienced actors. A rookie like me can only play a small supporting role."”
Feng Xiaogang laughed." Hehe, you little girl, you're getting more and more surprising. If your humble words were said to an old actor over 40 years old, I would believe it, but if it came from a 17-year-old girl like you, I would never believe it. Tell me, who told you to say these words?”
Seeing that her lie had been exposed, Zhao Liying didn't bother to hide it." My cousin told me to say that.”
This time, when he heard the word " cousin " again, Feng Xiaogang was really happy." Hehe, your cousin is really interesting."”
……
Luo Xiaofan was waiting outside the stables with his aunt. After they were tired, they sat in the car and chatted.
His aunt was getting anxious. She asked," Xiao Fan, why do you think Director Feng asked Xiao Ying out? He's such a big director, but he's actually chatting with a small actress. This is a little strange."”
Luo Xiaofan waved his hand." Aunt, don't be nervous. Feng Xiaogang will definitely not have unspoken rules with Cousin. As long as there are no unspoken rules, the rest will not be bad. You can rest assured."”
Although he said so, Luo Xiaofan was more nervous than his aunt.
The car fell silent again. Suddenly, the door opened and Zhao Liying walked in.
Instantly, his aunt exclaimed," Ah, dear daughter, why are you back? How was it? What did Director Feng say to you just now? Did they talk about becoming an actor? Did he bully you? You damned child, say something!”
Zhao Liying looked at her mother's nervous expression and suddenly felt like laughing and crying. She was extremely touched.
Luo Xiaofan also looked at Zhao Liying." Cousin, say something. Why did you become mute after going out?"”
Zhao Liying smiled and glared at Luo Xiaofan." Cousin, Director Feng said he wants to talk to you alone. He wants you to go to the stable over there to find him."”
Luo Xiaofan was stunned when he heard that. He pointed at himself and said uncertainly," You said that Feng Xiao just looked for me and wanted to talk to me alone?”
Zhao Liying nodded vigorously." Yes, Director Feng said he wanted to talk to you alone.”
……
Luo Xiaofan lit a cigarette and walked to the stable. He was still confused.
"Feng Xiaogang wants to talk to me?" Luo Xiaofan couldn't understand what was there to talk about between two people who didn't interact at all.
When he reached the stables, he saw Feng Xiaogang smoking and patting the handsome horse's head as if he was saying something.
Luo Xiaofan coughed lightly.
Feng Xiaogang turned his head and saw Luo Xiaofan. He smiled." Hehe, you're here. Come here."”
Luo Xiaofan showed the respect he deserved for this international director. He took out a soft Zhonghua cigarette and handed it over." Director Feng, would you like one?”
Feng Xiaogang did not stand on ceremony. He threw away the half cigarette in his hand and took Luo Xiaofan's cigarette." Hehe, sure, change to another cigarette. Oh, it's still Soft China. You're good."”
After Luo Xiaofan lit the cigarette, he smiled modestly and didn't say much because he deeply understood that in front of Feng Xiaogang, any more words would bring him unnecessary trouble.
Feng Xiaogang took a deep puff of his cigarette and nodded." Your name is Luo Xiaofan? What do you usually do?"
Luo Xiaofan replied," I'm just an amateur singer. I write some songs and post them online.”
Feng Xiaogang smiled meaningfully." An amateur singer? Write some songs? If I remember correctly, last night, my daughter Feng Siyu watched the live broadcast of the yahoo search for stars and asked me to ask for her autograph. The person she asked for was a singer. Strange, that singer's name is actually the same as yours, Luo Xiaofan.”
Luo Xiaofan was not pretentious." Director Feng, there are many singers with the same name in the world. I'm not the only one."”
Feng Xiaogang took another puff of smoke." But 'Father',' When You're Old 'and' Where Has Time Gone 'were all songs written by you, right?”
Luo Xiaofan nodded.
Feng Xiaogang laughed again." Hehe, you're so young, but you can actually write such an emotional song. That's interesting. I don't want to talk about anything else with you. I just want to ask you, why don't you want your cousin to be the female lead?”
When Luo Xiaofan heard this, he was shocked!
However, he tried his best to hide it and said casually," I know my sister's situation very well. The female lead in a movie can't be played well easily. She has to take into account many factors such as connections, acting skills, and improvisation. That's why I asked her to act according to her ability.”
Feng Xiaogang nodded." That's right, very good. I really didn't expect that this lousy program, Searching Stars, could bring me so much fun, especially to meet contestants like you and your sister. Very good, very good."”
Luo Xiaofan saw Feng Xiaogang's smile and gritted his teeth." Director Feng, what about my cousin's role?"”
Feng Xiaogang flicked his cigarette butt away." The story I'm going to film this time is called 'The Kneeling Clan'. The male lead is Fan Wei, and the female lead was originally planned to be Zhao Liying. Since you're all so sensible, I'll give you another role-be Fan Wei's secretary.”
When Luo Xiaofan heard this, he was overjoyed. The wish he had been looking forward to had finally been fulfilled! He quickly said to Feng Xiaogang," Thank you for your kindness, Director Feng!”
Feng Xiaogang nodded casually at Luo Xiaofan's gratitude, and then he asked curiously," Luo Xiaofan, I even suspect that you have read the script this time, so you decided to let Zhao Liying give up the female lead?"”
Luo Xiaofan quickly shook his head and said firmly," No, no, absolutely not!”
Feng Xiaogang shook his head in confusion." That's strange. But did you know that the female lead of this scene only has a few lines, while the supporting actress has more lines?"”
Luo Xiaofan swore to the heavens," Director Feng, I really don't know about these things. I only know that a person has to act according to his ability. It's that simple."”
Feng Xiaogang smiled." Sure, you're a smart guy. Do you have a pen and paper with you? Write an autograph for me. I'll take it home and give it to my daughter."”
Luo Xiaofan patted it big| She said," Director Feng, I really don't have a pen washi. Why don't you wait for a while and I'll go out and buy a pen?”
Feng Xiaogang shook his head impatiently." It's okay. It's too troublesome. When you send Zhao Liying to the set in a few days, send her to me too."”
At this point, Luo Xiaofan also knew that the discussion was basically over, so he nodded and left after saying goodbye.
