I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 321 [Fujiang]

The story of Fu Jiang is actually somewhat similar to The Grudge.

They all center on a 'character' and extend each story.

Unlike Kayako, the resentful ghost, Fujiang is a person, no, no, it should be said to be a monster.

She has the "ultimate charm" that can attract men's attention. Any man with a normal sexual orientation, regardless of age, will be deeply attracted to her and have a strong desire to "fall" in love with her and possess her.

But the emotions of 'love' and 'hate' are common.

When this kind of 'love' reaches a certain limit, it turns into 'hate', which leads to the idea of ​​killing her and dismembering her, and then implements it.

Tomie's work is actually a story about men from various professions and different personalities falling in love with her and killing her.

In the process, they were obsessed and struggled, but they would eventually kill her.

Yes, this is different from the curse.

However, at present, Ito, the author of this work, does not have a friendly attitude towards Masayoshi Lu.

"But Director Lu, I will rush over immediately after receiving your call."

"Oh, Teacher Zhou is famous, that's why."

As a director, and with a suitable script, it is difficult for him not to want to collaborate once.

Lu Zhengyi did not refute, "If you have any needs, just ask, but I will only help you under the right circumstances."

If the benefits are not proportional to the losses, the relationship will naturally not be sustainable.

She entered the office area with brisk steps. She didn't sway or show off, but with just a few simple steps, she walked out with a grace that many T-stage models couldn't achieve.

It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Not to mention that she doesn't look like someone in her early fifties, she even behaves more and more like a young girl.

When it becomes profitable in the future, they will naturally join in again.

Kayako acts as a murderer and kills everyone who is tainted with resentment.

What's more, the relationship between them and these Chinese enterprises is only business cooperation.

But except for Lu Zhengyi, everyone else seemed to have not seen her and was minding their own business.

For such a charming character, he has many related scripts in his mind.

She said as she walked into the office.

Lu Zhengyi didn't want to fish, so he didn't give people the slightest chance to have delusions.

She is still the kind of Bai Yueguang who is naughty and cheerful in school, especially in the hearts of many boys.

A special guest came to Mei Tan Studio.

No, I should say, repelled.

However, those cooperative companies will make such a decision, but Ito may not.

"The remuneration is separate. I've helped you so much, do you have to count me as a favor?"

When he saw her, he immediately had the idea of ​​filming this kind of film.

Although people have been quiet for a while now, there is no guarantee that because of this favor of mine, people will think about it again.

And the face was still bare-faced, with no extra foundation at all. It was fair and fair, with fine skin and tender flesh. It didn't look like a person in his early fifties at all. Instead, it looked more like a girl in her teens.

Tomie is a victim no matter which work she is in, she is always the one who is killed in the story.

She has played the role of a fox demon, and her ability to charm people is so perfect.

He still remembered what this woman had planned when they first met.

"Of course, I am a good law-abiding citizen."

Lu Zhengyi chatted cheerfully.

"You know that's not what I meant. Being famous is one thing, but specifically the changes in me." Zhou Jie looked at him with a smile, her eyebrows without any eye makeup curved when she smiled, like the waning moon. , has an indescribable charm, "No matter where I go now, I have to attract bees and butterflies, so I have to stay quiet at home every day and dare not go anywhere."

It was also because of her that he was confident in convincing Ito.

Zhou Jie, the actor who will play Fu Jiang.

“It’s been a long time since it’s been so peaceful in such a crowded environment.”

"Forget it, but I won't be tied up by you just because of this favor."

This is actually a bit younger than when we saw him two years ago.

Because of the Heguo's blockade on the Grudge crew, few people in the Heguo entertainment industry dare to have anything to do with them. Even Hebao Company temporarily declined the proposal proposed by Guangying due to some subsequent network blockades by the Heguo. Some cooperation intentions.

For fear of getting involved, even some of their company's artists and works have been banned.

Even though, this person is definitely no stranger to people in the entertainment industry.

Lu Zhengyi, a native of the Tang Dynasty, could leave with a pat on the butt, but they could not leave.

Zhou Jie also understood. After taking a few big steps forward, she stood outside the office. She turned around suddenly, bent down, and put her hands behind her back. "I even pay my taxes seriously. As conscientious as I am, There aren’t many actors left.”

After much deliberation and considering the current career development situation, Lu Zhengyi chose the role of Fu Jiang, which was a good match for her.

"Let's talk about business first."

Lu Zhengyi was oblivious to her every move. He opened the door of the office and welcomed her in. "Teacher Zhou, although we have known each other for a long time, our relationship is not very deep."

"There are some things that you don't know very well."

"Our crew is quite special in filming. Of course, I'm not talking about supernatural things. After all, you know this very well. I'm talking about the requirements during filming..."

For example, actors need to be with the team throughout the whole process. It is best not to bring assistants or agents, and some aspects of the filming process should be kept confidential...

"Understood. After all, the less people know about this kind of thing, the better." Zhou Jie nodded, a little disappointed appearing on her brows, "Actually, since I started on the path of spiritual practice, I no longer have an assistant. I am not that valuable. Doing your own things by yourself is considered practice."

That's really embarrassing for you.

It was obviously the most basic thing, but in Zhou Jie's words, she still showed a 'looking down' attitude.

It's like doing your own thing and being proud of it.

She still has a sense of superiority based on her social status or her status as a practitioner.

But that's normal.

Lu Zhengyi nodded, "Then I'm sorry, Teacher Zhou."

There was no audition. After simply communicating some of the rules within the crew, he took out the drafted contract and said, "When Mr. Ito officially authorizes it, we will sign this actor contract."

"Of course, provided he can authorize it."

"Let's go meet him together later, but I don't want you to use your ability to forcefully enchant him. I hope you will just stand by and wait quietly for him to make his own judgment."

In terms of character design, Zhou Jie fits the bill quite well.

As for her ability as an actress, she is also an actress who has won the Best Actress Award.

Except for some flaws in terms of age, Tomie's role is almost tailor-made for her.

Yes, age.

In any case, she is an 'old woman' in her early fifties.

In the comics, although Tomie has many clones, the age when he appears is basically in his teens or twenties.

Even though Zhou Jie's appearance and behavior are not old at all, in people's minds, she has the impression that she is already old.

"Is there any difference between the two?" Zhou Jie looked at him helplessly, "You obviously have such great ability and can do some things easily, but you have always hidden it. Isn’t it troublesome to complete it within the scope?”

As long as she thought about it, she could get the authorization from Teacher Ito with just one sentence, so there was no need to go to all that trouble.

Lu Zhengyi smiled and did not respond.

"By the way, in terms of Chinese language..."

But soon, he remembered something again.

"You don't have to worry about that."

Zhou Jie waved her hand and replied in relatively basic Chinese language, "I learned a little before to participate in the fashion show of the Republic of China, but I'm not very proficient."

"Although I stopped studying later because of my schedule."

"But with this foundation and my current learning ability, I think it is not difficult to take some time to relearn and speak Japanese well."

When she spoke, her posture was very confident.

It seems that it is not that difficult to learn a language in three to five days.

"I feel more and more that I am amazing."

She stretched out her hands and looked at her palms. "Not only have I gained some skills, but my physical functions have also improved a lot. I can't say that I have improved. I should say...recovered."

“There’s a sense of returning to the health and learning abilities of a child, but in an adult’s body.”

"It's like that saying, 'Return to infancy.'"

"If I had stayed in this state from the moment I was born and lived for more than fifty years, I would be like this now. No, I have not reached that...'baby' state."

"It's still a little bit, a little bit, I haven't fully recovered yet, back to what 'I' should be."

Zhou Jie couldn't help but say that she had been holding back some things for a long time.

Who to tell? They don't understand.

Only practitioners, only practitioners like themselves, can understand what they are saying.

"Cultivation is about returning to the state of a baby, right?"

Zhou Jie asked Lu Zhengyi, who was also a cultivator.

Although he is only this young and walks later than himself, he has gone further than himself.

He should know better.

"do not know."

However, Lu Zhengyi shook his head.

……

and the country,

Gifu,

In front of each building, a car slowly stopped.

Although preparations for the film have begun, the outcome still depends on Ito's authorization.

So after receiving Zhou Jie, Lu Zhengyi quickly communicated the time to meet.

Previously, when Light and Shadow sent a special person to communicate with Ito, although he was very repulsive, it was only because of the ban from the Japanese side.

He is resistant to cooperation.

As for Lu Zhengyi himself, he didn't have any ill intentions.

On the contrary, perhaps because they are both creators of thriller and horror works, Ito's perception of Masayoshi Lu is more of an appreciative attitude.

"Hello, Director Lu."

Just as Lu Zhengyi rang the doorbell, a man with glasses and thinning hair opened the door from the inside, and then there was a very common Tang language.

And behind him, there was no one else.

Although Ito is already sixty years old, he is not married yet and has no children.

"Hello, Mr. Ito."

They greeted each other in Tang dialect, and Lu Zhengyi also responded in a friendly manner, "I also brought Fu Jiang's scheduled actors this time. I think you should be able to come up with the idea of ​​cooperation after meeting."

"Director Lu, I admire your work very much. I have watched both The Grudge 1 and 2, but I also hope you can understand the difficulties I face as a member of this country." Ito replied helplessly, "I Although I don’t know what you have done specifically, but recently..."

But as he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller.

And his eyes were staring blankly at the other person standing outside the room.

a woman.

He hadn't noticed it before, but when Lu Zhengyi's burly body moved to the side, the woman behind him was like a beam of light, shining over her, so dazzling that Ito couldn't move his eyes at all. To look elsewhere.

"Hello, Mr. Ito, I am Zhou Jie, an actress from Tang Dynasty."

Zhou Jie smiled casually, took a step forward, raised her arm, stretched out her palm as slender as a willow branch, and said in a somewhat fluent dialect, "I hope that meeting you will give me the opportunity to try it." Challenge the role of Tomie."

Her tone was calm and a bit like a command.

Of course, she did not use her own abilities. Lu Zhengyi said that she was not allowed to use her abilities to influence the other party's judgment in this matter.

This tone was just out of habit, as if once she spoke, others had to listen to her.

On the opposite side, Ito stared straight at Zhou Jie's face, dumbfounded for a long time.

"Fu, Fujiang..."

Then, with a trembling voice, he said with some excitement, "It's you, it's you, it's like this, this is how Fu Jiang should be."

Ito didn't hold Zhou Jie's hand, and stood helplessly in front of her, mumbling in sweet words. At the same time, his eyes never moved away from her body from beginning to end.

When Zhou Jie looked at him, her face was stunned.

Lu Zhengyi stood aside silently with a smile on his face.

Although they had just met and the negotiation had not yet begun, in his heart, he already had an answer to this matter.

……

"His excitement just now is one of the reasons why I don't let you use your abilities."

After negotiating the cooperation, with Ito seeing them off, they returned to the temporarily rented car. Lu Zhengyi said, "I don't want to see people nodding their heads blankly and then obeying orders and returning." It's like, 'Okay, I'll license the work to you.'"

"As an actor, I can probably understand this reason." Zhou Jie recalled Ito's reaction when they met just now, without refuting, "This is a troublesome process," or something like that, "What about the other reason?"

Lu Zhengyi lost his voice again.

This question is useless to talk about. It seems that there are some truths that can only be understood by personal experience.

For ordinary people, if they can omit the process and get the results directly, they may feel very happy.

It's like you can get your salary directly every month without working.

But for practitioners, this is the process of boiling a frog in warm water.

According to your own ideas, if you directly obtain results through your abilities, the concepts of money, interpersonal relationships, social concepts... various frameworks will disappear from you little by little, until in the end, you will not be bound by any concept.

At that time, people are no longer people.

But that doesn't mean that you can't use your own abilities at all. The word 'balance' is very important.
