Full-time actor

Chapter 301【128】"You are awesome"!
"You're awesome!"

The moment she saw Liu Yifei, Zhang Ziyi's eyes obviously changed.

The key point is that Liu Yifei was very polite and well-behaved, greeting everyone on the set, and even Zhang Yimou, who never liked people visiting the cast, had a rare smile on his face.

Don't hit the smiling person with your hand.

This girl was very serious about her acting. She asked everyone in the cast for autographs and brought everyone's posters.

Lao Mouzi has it.

"Sister Ziyi, can you sign your name for me?"

Liu Yifei shouted sweetly and was so cute and cute. This level of acting is really hard to refuse.

Who can resist such a well-educated and beautiful girl?
Swish swish!
Zhang Ziyi signed her name for Liu Yifei angrily, and suddenly raised her eyebrows: "I heard Chen Yu say that you are also an actor?"

"Well, I'm also in the drama, senior!"

Liu Yifei was much precocious than ordinary girls. She stood there quietly looking at Chen Yu and Zhang Ziyi. Zhang Ziyi, who was now wearing makeup and wearing ancient clothes, was also quite beautiful and full of temperament in Liu Yifei's eyes.

Your future agency, Chen Yu said in his heart.

Chen Yu is definitely a very suitable candidate.

"Ok?"

The curious expression seems to be asking: "Why does her agent want to invite you to dinner?"

The world's top three agents, Liu Yifei, a fake foreigner, certainly knows this.

Zhang Ziyi kicked him directly. She thought this guy was the teacher of the Chinese Opera. She thought, no teacher of the Chinese Opera said such a thing!
Seeing the two people acting like this in front of her, Liu Yifei saw it and there was no change in her expression at all.

Chen Yu was talking to Liu Yifei, and Liu Yifei was a little surprised and said: "She...agent?"

Liu Yifei still thought about it and finally came.

“Oooh, William Morris Agency!”

"Because of you, I can eliminate many women who have thoughts about me!"

Liu Yifei showed a smile, and Zhang Ziyi couldn't help but shook her head: "Chen Yu is so cheap!"

She is attracted to such a proud and arrogant person, and it is obviously possible for other women to be attracted to her.

Liu Yifei raised her head, obviously not expecting Chen Yu to say this: "You are so beautiful, who else but me -"

WME's signing of him seemed normal to Chen Yu. After all, he was definitely a rising star in China. Such a major agency in the world would obviously do some background work when signing artists.

"After a while, Zhang Ziyi's manager called me to have dinner, please come with me!"

"You don't know my high school teacher!"

Chen Yu added on the side, Zhang Ziyi glanced at him: "Which teacher?"

"What am I thinking!"

Not really.

It can be seen that she has a good relationship with Chen Yu on the set.

Liu Yifei did come to check on the situation. Although she knew that there might be nothing between the two of them, but the girl's thoughts, she definitely had to come and have a look, even though it might cause unnecessary follow-up and trouble.

Signing him now is definitely the time to pay the least cost.

The more this happens, the more it shows the magnanimity between the two people?

Forget it, Liu Yifei knew that Chen Yu should, and what he said was true.

Seeing Chen Yu and Zhang Ziyi like this, she felt relieved but also felt guilty.

The key is very touching!

Being with Chen Yu, probably no girl will not feel inferior, even Liu Yifei is no exception.

"Since you know this, why do you still let me come?"

"I don't know, you should ask my opinion first!"

After all, the excellence of the other party can actually be seen by the actresses filming together.

"Foreign, William Morris agent!"

Why does this guy always say such philosophical words?

"It's okay. Did you blame me for coming here?"

"You have to start early, the teacher taught you!"

It's not that she doesn't believe Chen Yu, she just doesn't believe in herself.

There is another reason: the intimidation of old rival CAA.

"House of Flying Daggers" plus "Kung Fu" are movies that have been released around the world, and with four best actors in hand, who among the young actors in mainland China will still be Chen Yu's opponent next year?
The William Morris Brokerage Company in front of us has just established a branch in China, and it must be trying to expand the Chinese and Asian markets.

"He...are they going to sign you?"

Liu Yifei asked lightly, and Chen Yu rubbed her hair: "How come? I don't know what you are thinking?"

Liu Yifei pressed her temple with her wrist. When Chen Yu saw it, he couldn't help but said, "What's wrong?"

As the most powerful brokerage company in the world, William Morris has been gradually cannibalized by this old rival over the years. The key is that this old rival was founded by employees of his former company.

This makes Katzman Jerry, the current CEO of William Morris, even more unhappy.

The markets in the United States and Europe have been completely wiped out, so they can only settle for the next best thing. Before CAA's clutches reach the mainland, it must take the lead and capture this market in advance!

William Morris was so brilliant a hundred years ago, and it was equally awesome fifty years ago, but since 1975, five talented agents left because the company's system was too conservative, and took some heavyweight clients with them to establish CAA. , William Morris’ brokerage empire began to decline.

It wasn't until 1991, when the current CEO Katzman Jerry, who dared (wa) to break (qiang), came to power, that WME's situation improved slightly. At least, it could keep pace with The current CAA fights come and go.

In addition, CAA boss Michael Ovitz left to serve as president of Disney, and second-in-command Meyer became president of Universal.

The current CAA can be said to be in turmoil. The William Morris Agency just took the opportunity to regain its former glory and snatched back many stars.

It's not like Chen Yu hasn't checked the information these days. The current CAA is indeed in turmoil.

However, the temporary trough is only for a better rise.

The future CAA will be even more powerful, Chen Yu knows this.

At the Oscar awards ceremony after 2010, more than half of the directors would thank this company, because most of them are CAA contract employees.

Rumor has it that anyone can find their entertainment idol on its long list of contracted stars.

The most exaggerated thing is that the box office of films directed by directors contracted by CAA accounts for more than half of the global box office, and this figure is the sum of other agencies.

At the same time, among the eight Oscar awards, CAA’s artists have won the second to fifth-highest awards in the agency industry combined. In fact, in the future, even movie giants such as Disney, Time Warner, and MGM will often depend on CAA's attitude.

Therefore, as a reborn person, if Chen Yu wants to set foot in Hollywood, he must first cooperate with such a company.

"If they wanted to sign you, would you sign it?"

Liu Yifei suddenly asked.

"uncertain!"

Chen Yu shook his head: "Now is not a good time to sign a contract. At least, I have to make a name for myself in Hollywood before I can have the leverage to sign a contract with these international giants!"

"But if they sign a contract, they will have international resources, even Hollywood resources!"

"it's useless!"

Chen Yu couldn't reveal more to Liu Yifei.

Yes, as Liu Yifei said, if Chen Yu signs with WME, they will definitely provide Hollywood with the resources to participate.

For example, Zhang Ziyi's "Memoirs of a Geisha", "Raccoon Palace", etc., even the producer and producer of "Geisha" is the international director Spielberg, and the investment is as high as 8500 million US dollars. Zhang Ziyi is still the number one female, and she has risen to the top. of film.

But screw it up.

Resources are good resources, but being able to ascend really depends on luck.

After this film, Zhang Ziyi's more Hollywood roles are all marginal characters, unable to break into the core level of Hollywood.

"You have to be as good as Cheng Long and Li Lianjie!"

At the very least, you must have a few major movies in your hands and make yourself famous in the North American market. Then if you sign a contract with a big agent, the other party will strongly praise you; otherwise, the chance is too high.

Moreover, only in the past few years, after 2008, Chinese people basically have no opportunities in Hollywood.

Even if there is a Hollywood script, it is just a soy sauce role at best.

"Cheng Long..."

Liu Yifei pursed her lips slightly, there was only one Cheng Long in China!

That's easy to say.

“Anyway, to strike iron, you have to be tough yourself!”

Chen Yu gave Liu Yifei a deep look: "So, if you have an overseas agency sign you in the future, you must remember what I said!"

"I?"

Liu Yifei pointed at herself. She felt that Chen Yu must be joking.

"Don't take it seriously!"

"I'm afraid that your mother will think she's going international as soon as she hears about overseas brokerage companies!"

"She...isn't like what you said!"

Liu Yifei's words obviously lacked confidence.

"Okay, let's not talk about this. How did you read the script of "Sword of Immortal"?"

"Zhao Ling'er, isn't it a good fit for you?"

This is of course not the script given to her by Tang Dynasty. Currently, Tang Dynasty's casting has just begun, and they have not thought of Liu Yifei at all. In her previous life, it was the broadcast of "Dragon" that made Cai Yinong decide on the final candidate for the female lead. Liu Yifei is none other than Liu Yifei.

They initially chose Liu Yifei's classmate from Nortel, Liu Jing, but he rejected the offer because he thought the pay was too low.

Therefore, Chen Yu sometimes had to sigh that this person was lucky.

Liu Yifei's luck in the past 20 years was truly invincible.

As long as Hollywood's "The King of Kung Fu" is good, she will be the number one actress in Chinese Hollywood.

"Well, I quite like this character!"

Speaking of Zhao Ling'er, Liu Yifei's face showed a hint of yearning: "I miss the days of filming with you!"

"Yeah, I miss it too!"

"..."

The two of them chatted about each other on the set, and finally waited until Zhang Ziyi finished filming.

"Change the team the day after tomorrow!"

"You can have a day off tomorrow!"

The executive director shouted over the loudspeaker that the day after tomorrow the crew of "House of Flying Daggers" would be transferred to the last filming location - Chongqing Bamboo Forest. Many exciting fight scenes in the play were shot here, so Chen Yu's final filming mission , it’s still quite difficult!

"Let's go!"

"My agent is waiting outside!"

After Zhang Ziyi took off her makeup and changed clothes, she walked out to greet Chen Yu. Looking at Liu Yifei in her eyes, she couldn't help but have a look of surprise.

This should be the most beautiful school girl she has ever seen in a Chinese drama.

Star Road is probably not bad either.

"You little girlfriend, you have to keep an eye on me!"

Zhang Ziyi suddenly said something in Chen Yu's ear. Liu Yifei happened to see it from the corner of her eye and frowned slightly.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yu grabbed Liu Yifei's slender hand: "Senior sister said, let me keep an eye on you!"

"why?"

Liu Yifei blinked.

Shouldn't I be optimistic about you?
"Because you are so beautiful!"

"In this world, girls who are too beautiful are very dangerous!"

Zhang Ziyi rarely told the truth, but she glared at Chen Yu angrily, "This guy betrayed me backhand."

If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have said this more.

"Ziyi!"

A female voice suddenly came from not far away, and Chen Yu and the others immediately looked up.

A middle-aged woman with glasses and short hair walked towards them with a smile.

Ji Lingling!
Singaporean, Zhang Ziyi's overseas agent and manager, and senior agent of William Morris.
