On this day, Wang Jun had just closed his stall and was about to go for lunch when a call came. Usually, the only person who could call Wang Jun was Li Binbin. However, when this person spoke today, Wang Jun was stunned.
Zhou Xun?
After filming at Suzhou Creek, Wang Jun and Zhou Xun had not contacted each other again. Why would she call? More importantly, how did she know his cell phone number?
"Hey! Why aren't you saying anything?" Zhou Xun waited for a while. When he heard that Wang Jun was silent, he could not help but speak.
"I was just wondering why you suddenly called me!"？”
"Why can't I call you?" Zhou Xun snorted.”
This was a competition. If Wang Jun continued to pester her on this issue, it would definitely not end well. Wang Jun decisively gave up on arguing with the woman and went straight to the point."What's the matter?"
"Can't I call you for nothing?”
Great! It was not over yet!
"Yes! Why not? It was a good thing that a beautiful woman was thinking about!”Wang Jun said.
"Alright! Young Miss! Tell me! I know what's the matter. You're a busy man, so don't waste your time on me!”
Zhou Xun snorted and said," You really think I'm interested in talking to you? I won't waste my breath on you. I just signed a contract for a TV series. I happen to have a role. Are you interested?"”
TV series? Character?
What does it have to do with me?
Wang Jun's mind was a little confused. He had completely forgotten that he had shot a movie, and it was the male lead."I'm filming a TV series. Are you sure? I'm just an idle worker at a mall along the street, and you want me to act in a television drama?”
Zhou Xun snapped," Who's in the mood to make you cough? I'm being serious here. The actor who was supposed to play that role got into a motorcycle accident and broke his leg. The director is worried about this role. Didn't I just think of you? Give me a straightforward answer, are you coming or not! Let me tell you, this is the Central Plains. Many people can't squeeze in even if they want to. It's only because I know the director that he's willing to meet you.”
Forget it! Zhou Xun had placed himself at the peak of morality. If Wang Jun did not agree, then he would not know what was good for him. What else could he say?
However, Wang Jun felt that this matter was not reliable. He had acted in a movie and a TV series before, but he had acted in a TV series. Moreover, the same thing had happened. Wang Jun was a little scared.
"It's not a problem to go, but…can I? Don't look back or I'll cause you trouble!"
Wang Jun swore that he could sincerely think for Zhou Xun. Zhou Xun had just said that the director was willing to meet him because of her. It was not important whether he was chosen or not, but Zhou Xun still owed him a favor.
Wang Jun didn't like to owe others favors, so he naturally didn't want his friends to owe others favors because of him.
Zhou Xun was not as slow as Wang Jun.""Don't waste your breath on me. What trouble can you give me? It's just a meeting anyway. They didn't say anything and will definitely hire you. Tomorrow morning at 9:30 am, just come to Hotel XXXXX directly. Don't think I don't know what you're hanging out with all day. What good can you get by hanging out with them? That's all, I'm still busy!"
When Wang Jun heard this, he was just about to seek justice for his brothers. In the end, he hung up on him. What a character. However, how did Zhou Xun know about his current situation?
After pondering for a second, Wang Jun understood. Zhou Xun's first boyfriend was Dou Wei's younger brother, Dou Peng. Although the two of them had broken up, it was said that their relationship had always been good. He had also met Dou Peng at the Red Star Bar these days. It was no wonder that Zhou Xun knew about his recent situation.
Although he felt helpless about what Zhou Xun had said, he still remembered him. This warmed Wang Jun's heart. There was no point in living for a person who was easily forgotten.
Putting this matter aside, Wang Jun ate a bowl of beef ramen and returned to the place where he had left off in the morning. He wondered if he would be able to meet the director tomorrow.
In Wang Jun's opinion, he was not a professional. Only Jia Zhangke, who was trying to save money, would take a fancy to him. Other directors had plenty of famous actors to use. Who would use a grassroots actor like him?
Whether it would work or not, he would probably have to delay the whole day tomorrow. In line with the principle of being vigilant in times of peace, Wang Jun sang until there was no one else in the afternoon before closing the stall. He would make as much money as he could.
Of course, Wang Jun could also choose not to go, but if that were the case, it would be too hurtful. Zhou Xun had wanted to introduce him to him because of their relationship. Wang Jun, who had always valued relationships, never wanted to make his friends who were still thinking about him sad.
After dinner, Wang Jun sat on the broken sofa in the living room and watched TV. This TV was a second-hand product that Wang Jun bought, but the quality was not bad. Entertainment news was currently playing on the TV. Suddenly, a piece of news caught Wang Jun's attention.
Yanjing Xinbao Garden Film and Television Investment Co., Ltd. Co-production of " Like Fog, Like Rain, Like Wind," directed by Zhao Baogang, with Chen Kun, Luo Haiqiong, Lu Yi, and Zhou Xun.
After contacting Zhou Xun, Wang Jun's mind suddenly froze. He thought to himself,'What's wrong with you? Brother Xun! This was a little too big!
"Hey! I'm here. I'm at the door now. What? The security guard at the door said that I didn't look like a good person and wouldn't let me in. What? Who wants to argue with you! I'm telling the truth. Alright, I'll wait for you at the door!”
Wang Jun hung up the phone and sat on the flower bed. He looked at the hotel's entrance. Although he was not optimistic about this opportunity at all, it was Zhou Xun who had asked for it. Early in the morning, he had already prepared the room. Whether it worked or not, he could not put it aside. After all, he was a famous director. He could not lose points in terms of image.
It didn't take long before Wang Jun saw Zhou Xun running out in a hurry. He stood at the entrance and looked around. Finally, he locked onto Wang Jun and jogged over.
Standing in front of Wang Jun, Zhou Xun said unhappily,""You mean it, right? You insisted on making me make a trip. You even had to let me personally welcome you!"
Wang Jun pretended to be wronged." I didn't want to trouble you, but the security guard wouldn't let me in. I…"
Zhou Xun glared at Wang Jun and shot back his next words.""Come on, I already called the front desk just now. They said that there were no such eight cases at all.”
Wang Jun was not embarrassed after being exposed. Instead, he smiled and said,""Alright! I'll lie to others!"
"Alright! Alright!" Zhou Xun said impatiently," Hurry up and follow me. Everyone's waiting!"”
When it came to serious matters, Wang Jun was no longer a fool. He followed Zhou Xun into the hotel. The elevator went straight to the eighth floor and he was brought to a room.
When Wang Jun went in, the people inside were talking about something. Wang Jun recognized one of them at a glance. It was Zhao Baogang. Speaking of which, he had seen him in Hengdian. However, at that time, he was just a small actor. He was called a small actor, but he was actually doing odd jobs with the production team. Naturally, he did not catch the attention of the director.
As Zhao Baogang spoke, he saw Zhou Xun and Wang Jun arrive. He nodded as a form of greeting. Then, he pointed at the chair at the side and asked the two of them to wait for a while.
Zhou Xun didn't say anything. He sat down with Wang Jun and took out a script from his bag. He handed it over and whispered,""Take a look at the red line first!”
Wang Jun took the script and opened it. Indeed, Zhou Xun had marked out some parts of the script with a red pen. He flipped through a few pages and realized that there were quite a number of red lines. It could be seen that Zhou Xun's recommendation for Wang Jun to act in this role was quite important.
Of course, this was not important. What was important was Zhou Xun's sincerity. Wang Jun could not help but feel touched. Speaking of which, the two of them had only met once. Perhaps they could not even be considered friends. However, Zhou Xun had helped him so much. How could Wang Jun not feel grateful?
"Thanks!"
Zhou Xun rolled his eyes.”
"But I still have to say thank you." Wang Jun smiled.”
Zhou Xun did not insist and accepted Wang Jun's dry thanks.""Alright! Hurry up and prepare, even if I owe you in my previous life!”
In fact, Zhou Xun didn't know why she wanted to help Wang Jun. She only heard that the actor who was supposed to play the third male lead had been injured in a car accident. Zhao Baogang was worried about the actor, so she suddenly thought of Wang Jun.
When she thought of Wang Jun, Zhou Xun was shocked. She tried her best to find a reason for this idea, but she finally found it. The last time they filmed together, they didn't have enough scenes together, so she wanted to work with Wang Jun again.
Alright then! Zhou Xun forced himself to believe it!
Zhao Baogang and the others were still talking about something. Zhou Xun felt a little bored. She hated waiting the most. She wanted to chat with Wang Jun to kill time. When she turned around, she saw Song Zheng focused on watching a movie, so she didn't want to disturb him.
" Like Fog, Like Rain, Like Wind " was a television series that Wang Jun had heard of in his previous life. He had just never watched it before. After watching it for a while, Wang Jun wanted to give up. He did not like this kind of torturous drama at all. He only forced himself to continue watching it because of Zhou Xun. Who knew that after watching it for a while, he really got into it?
The role that Zhou Xun recommended Wang Jun to play was the third male lead, Black. Alai, the adopted son of the big shot Du Yunhe.
This character was a little reckless and simple. It seemed that he was used to following Du Yunhe and was too lazy to use his brain.
He had never thought that he, who had sworn to be loyal to his master, would become a traitor in the end. Because of this, he lost everything and became crazy. He only loved one woman in his life, and that was Angie.
It could be said that Alai was a rare infatuated man in this drama. Unlike Li Yingqi and Chen Zikun, he only loved Angie from the beginning to the end. He had sacrificed so much for the person he loved. In the end, he was seriously injured in revenge for Angie. He still followed the agreement with Angie to go to the dock, but he had to pay with his life.
In the play, Alai had a line for Angie: "I must make you love me. Listen, I, Alai, swear to the heavens, no, I swear to my dead parents that in this life, no matter what price I have to pay, even if I have to risk my life, I must make you love me.”
The lines were quite pretentious. Just the words on the paper were full of the sourness of Qiong Yao's novels. However, the strange thing was that Wang Jun didn't feel disgusted at all after reading it. Instead, he was quite excited.
A person like Alai should be like this when he expressed his feelings. He didn't know how to be tactful and couldn't pile up gorgeous words of love. What he could do was to put shackles on himself and make love a burden that he had to bear with his life.
Wang Jun read it very quickly. When he finished reading it, he found that he had already fallen in love with Alai. He was not as romantic as Chen Zikun, nor was he as gentlemanly and elegant as Li Yingqi. However, he deserved to be called infatuated. He was a reckless man who was infatuated, a man who was willing to give up everything for love.
Only people like Chen Zikun and Li Yingqi were worthy of being called men. People like them could only be called boys because Wang Jun felt that those two characters hadn't grown up at all. Their behavior was childish. When it came to relationships, they were obviously not as firm as Alai.
In the end, Chen Zikun fell in love with Fang Ziyi and then Du Xinyu. Li Yingqi had loved even more women. When all the women he loved and those who loved him were hurt and left, he pretended to be wronged and chose his cousin. He was full of pretentiousness.
Where's Alai?
He loved only one woman in his life, and he loved her until he died.
He closed the script and was about to return it to Zhou Xun when Wang Jun suddenly realized that he, Zhou Xun, and Zhao Baogang were the only ones left in the room.
