superstar family

Chapter 9, 9

After resting on the sofa for a while, Shen Qiushan went to the bathroom to take a hot shower, his mind paralyzed by alcohol suddenly sobered up a lot.

Half leaning on the bed, Shen Qiushan lit a cigarette for himself, while smoking, he flipped through the phone's address book, and then dialed one of the numbers.

"Shanzi? Come out??"

On the phone, the man's voice was a little surprised.

"Well, it came out today." Shen Qiushan responded.

"Hey, then why didn't you answer me? My brother will set up a table for you to catch up with the wind. I just happened to be casting in Yanjing these days!" , Therefore, most people call him "Third Brother".

And when Lin Wenge said that he was casting in Yanjing, Shen Qiushan's eyes lit up immediately, and he didn't need to "go around" by himself.

"Yes, I heard that the third brother's new play was being cast as soon as I came out, so I quickly called you. Our kid is graduating from the Academy of Film and Television, and the graduation play hasn't been settled yet. Third brother, see if you can Use?" Shen Qiushan accepted Lin Wenge's words, and said straight to the point that the two of them had a good relationship, so Shen Qiushan thought about what the other party did to give himself face.

On the other end of the phone, Lin Wenge was silent for a moment, and his voice was obviously a bit embarrassed: "The graduation play must be the protagonist, right?"

"It doesn't have to be the main character, as long as it is the main character, the male third or the fourth male is fine." Shen Qiushan said hastily.

"Hey, this is a bit difficult to handle. You know that the current investor is hypocritical. My first male is a traffic niche, and my second male is a powerful faction. It is really uncertain to have two main male roles. However, The investor said hello and said they wanted someone to come in..." Lin Wenge pecked his teeth and said, "If you want to talk about a supporting role with lines, brother will definitely arrange it. The main role is really difficult."

"Come on, since third brother's place is inconvenient, I'll ask other people." Lin Wenge's attitude was already obvious, so Shen Qiushan naturally wouldn't continue to pester him.

"Shanzi, I'm really sorry, you opened your mouth, I can't help you..." Lin Wenge said in a sorry tone.

"Hey, they are all in this business. I understand the difficulty of the third brother. If the investor wants to intervene, there is no way."

"No, capital is king now, people take the money, we migrant workers have to listen..." Lin Wenge complained, and then said: "Shanzi, I am socializing here, if nothing else It's over, let's talk back."

"Okay, I'll treat my third brother to drink when I have time."

Shen Qiushan said something polite, and hung up the phone in disappointment.

Lin Wenge's rhetoric was obviously just an excuse. When he didn't know what Shen Qiushan was calling, he also said that he was busy casting roles. As a result, when Shen Qiushan asked for roles, almost all male roles on his side were decided. It's clear that I just don't want to help.

It is love to help you in this kind of thing, and it is duty not to help you, so Shen Qiushan has nothing to say.

Flipping through the address book again, Shen Qiushan dialed the next number. After all, he has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, and he still knows quite a few directors.

"Old Chang, I am Shen Qiushan."

"Yes, yes, it came out today..."

"There's a real thing. Our kid will graduate from the Academy of Film and Television next year, and the graduation drama hasn't been completed yet. Do you think it can be used on your side?"

"Okay, let's do this first, and make a drink appointment later."

"..."

The second call was still fruitless, and Shen Qiushan made a third call, a fourth call, and a fifth call...

In half an hour, he made a total of ten calls, and nine of them were connected. However, after he told the matter, no one was willing to help, and the tone of everyone talking to him was the same as before he went in. It's very different, even a little evasive.

Although Shen Qiushan is a little helpless about this result, it is not surprising. In the vanity fair of the entertainment industry, people's real side will be infinitely magnified. Whoever is popular will play with whom, and whoever is bad will hide from whom. This is the principle of most people. .

And Shen Qiushan, who just came out of the detention center, of course belongs to the bad type of person. As a negative teaching material on the national news network, everyone naturally avoids it.

ding ding ding...

Just when Shen Qiushan was lamenting the warmth and coldness of human relations, the phone rang, and the caller ID showed a familiar name, Han Xiao.

This Han Xiao is a well-known domestic writer, film critic, and editor-in-chief of the "Sentimental" magazine. Speaking of which, he and Shen Qiushan are not acquainted with each other. Many years ago, the young and vigorous Han Xiao and the famous director Zhao Chuan set off a "controversy". At that time, people were not optimistic about Han Xiao, because he was not as good as Zhao Chuan in terms of qualifications and fame. However, after several rounds of online debates, Han Xiao unexpectedly won an overwhelming advantage. He also has countless fans with his sharp words.

An exasperated Zhao Chuan mobilized resources in the circle, so more than a dozen directors collectively sieged Han Xiao on the Internet, and Shen Qiushan was one of them. However, in the end, the directors still lost, and the defeat was quite embarrassing.

It was also during this debate that Shen Qiushan and Han Xiao formed a "Liangzi". However, at a friend's private banquet later, the two became guests at the same time. The two of them were awkward at first, but after a few drinks After drinking, the two reconciled at the suggestion of the mutual friend, which can be regarded as "meeting and laughing away the grievances". Moreover, the two chatted unexpectedly and hit it off, but later became friends.

When "Wu Sheng" was premiered, Shen Qiushan was unable to attend because he was in the detention center, so he called a group of friends in the circle. As a result, only Han Xiao went that day, which naturally moved Shen Qiushan very much.

"Brother Shan, are you out?" Han Xiao was a few years younger than Shen Qiushan, and kept calling him Brother Shan.

"Yes, it came out today." Shen Qiushan responded with a light smile.

"I count the days and today is today, but unfortunately I am in the United States, otherwise I would have gone to pick you up." Han Xiao said.

"Why did you go to America? Vacation?"

"Oh, talk to Chen Feng about something. I'm not looking for him to play the male lead of my movie. He has been filming in the United States. I really can't wait so I came to find him. In addition, the theme song of my movie wants to Ask Katewang to do it, and chat with him by the way." Han Xiao said.

"Are you going to make a movie?" Shen Qiushan was a little surprised.

"Yeah, after so many years of tossing around, I still want to take some pictures by myself, and I also want to ask Brother Shan for advice." Han Xiao laughed.

"Okay! What can I teach you as a street director?" Shen Qiushan laughed at himself and asked, "How is it? Did the talk go well?"

"Chen Feng's side is quite smooth, but katewang's asking price is too high, and the budget is a bit overrun. I'm hesitating." Katewang is a Chinese musician, well-known in the United States and China. His works have always been regarded as high-quality and compelling. Therefore, many films at home and abroad are willing to ask him to make soundtracks.

"The asking price is too high, let's forget it. Send me the notebook later, and I'll see if I can help you with two songs. Don't forget, your brother and I used to do music production." Shen Qiushan said.

"That's good, I'll send you the book in a while. By the way, Brother Shan, you've been a director for a long time. After reading the book, you can recommend some suitable actors for me. I've decided on Chen Feng as the male lead." Number." Han Xiao said again.

"It's done! It's on me!!" Hearing this, Shen Qiushan couldn't help being overjoyed, there really was something missing.
