I want to make headlines

Chapter 521 Desire
Wu Xiubo, born in 68, is an old actor who graduated from Chinese opera in 88.

So far, in his 45 years of life, he only tried a little red last year.

In 2012, "Heart Technique" was broadcast, and his role as Huo Simiao left a deep impression on people, and he became a wave of fans. Of course, some works of spy war series earlier were also appreciated by many audiences. .

However, as an actor, who would not want to be popular?Who wants to put in the same or even more effort but get paid much less than their peers?
Fortunately, his acting career of more than 20 years has allowed Wu Xingbo to develop a calm attitude and gradually explore his own acting style.

This day, he picked a corner where he could enjoy the afternoon sun, and he casually took out a book and read it quietly.

The pages of the book were turned very slowly, and Wu Xibo's mind was not entirely on it.

The ratings of "Heart Technique" have increased my salary, but the quality of the works I received is still uneven, but the effect of Xiaohong has also shown. cameo role.

Since graduating from Chinese opera, this is still a rare movie role... At the beginning of this year, I continued to shoot a costume TV series "The Case of the Orphan of Zhao", which is about to be released. I don't know if the big water screen can be made.

Wu Xingbo's eyes were fixed on the text for a long time, and suddenly he heard the sound of the downstairs door opening, and then a footstep "boom, boom, boom" turned around in a hurry, and then stepped on the stairs "peddling, stomping" come up.

"Xu Bo, Ruo Bo, there is, there is a book for you." Manager Li Lu was breathless, still holding the script tightly in his hand.

Wu Xibo came back to his senses as early as when he opened the door. Seeing him in such a hurry that he even buttoned one of his shirt crookedly, he couldn't help but jokingly said: "Old Li, look at your undisguised appearance of being so excited. , what? Someone asked me to play the male lead?"

Li Lu took a few breaths, but did not answer.

Seeing that he was panting badly, Wu Xibo got up and poured a glass of cool white, opened it in front of him, and continued to tease: "Could it be that the Oscar winner is coming to play for me?"

Forrest Gump winning the Oscar for Best Actor is the hottest thing in the film and television industry recently, not one of them. Whenever Wu Xibo is in the same industry, he will always hear everyone discussing this matter, so he just casually used it to tease it.

Seeing that a junior has made such great achievements, Wu Xibo is naturally envious as an actor, but his family knows his own affairs, and it has never been an easy task to move from the small screen to the big screen.

Even if the ratings of "Heart Technique" was good the year before last, he only played two cameo roles last year.

It's very difficult.

But after he finished saying this, he saw manager Li Lu's eyes widen suddenly, and he said, "You know everything?"

At this second, Wu Xingbo's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He couldn't help squinting his eyes and asked, "I don't know. Which company's movie? Male third?"

Seeing Li Lu's expression, he smiled himself: "The second male? Who is the director and what type? Show me the script!"

Li Lu gulped down two sips of water, and finally breathed evenly. He held up the script tightly held in his hand in the air, and couldn't help himself with pride: "The leading actor! A movie about love!"

Wu Xibo's rapid heartbeat gradually calmed down, he almost snatched the script from the agent's hand, and turned it over impatiently.

"Xibo, this is the script I found for you after mobilizing resources with great difficulty. How do you thank me this time? Hey, it's really not easy." Li Lu said this while looking at the expressions of his artists.

Wu Xibo has already opened the script, and there are a few big words written on the title page - "BJ Meets Seattle".

"It's a good name, and it's very flavorful." Wu Xibo will probably look at the script, no matter what the name is, he should be praised. He was about to study it carefully, but suddenly remembered that he needed to understand the situation. He said, "Are you sure you want me? Which company? What role does Gan Jing play? How much is the investment? Who is the heroine?"

Li Lu coughed: "Xibo, you also know our situation. I haven't decided to give you this book. I have to meet and talk with you before deciding. The film investor should be Hong Kong's An Le and Forrest Gump Studios , I don’t know anything else yet. I’ll ask you again.”

Wu Xiubo didn't feel disappointed, but felt that it should be taken for granted. He thought for a while and asked, "Talk to me? Director?"

"No, it's the producer." Li Lu said seriously.

"who is it?"

"Forrest Gump."

……

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, China's only Cannes and Oscar winner.

Before going to the appointment, Wu Xibo carefully tidied himself up. He was so worried that he even thought about whether to wear some cologne for half an hour.

In the end, he decided not to spray.

Before knowing the true character of the other party, I would rather not be brilliant than not make mistakes.

On a March day, the breeze is warm, and the green willows are full of smoke.

As soon as he walked to the appointed box, Wu Xingbo actually sweated a little from the short distance from the underground parking lot.

Boom, boom.

"Please come in." A clear voice sounded from inside.

Finally, taking a deep breath, Wu Xingbo adjusted his smile. He knew that the first second he stepped into this door would be the beginning of his exam.

"Gump, hello." Wu Xibo used a name that gradually became common in the circle.

Gan Jing stood up to greet him, and shook the middle-aged actor's hand. The touch was a little rough, but the first impression was warm and powerful: "Hello, hello, brother Xibo, sit down, sit down."

There was another person in the box, Zhou Dongyumao in the corner, who smiled and greeted Wu Xibo when he turned his gaze.

Maybe she's the heroine?As expected, A-Gump wanted to praise her, a thought flashed through Wu Xibo's mind, and he sat down with a smile.

"Just call me by my name." Wu Xibo's posture is not high, he is too eager for a movie role that can prove himself.

Gan Jing smiled, and still followed his title, straight to the point: "Brother Xibo, the main purpose of meeting you this time is to talk about a script."

"Well, "BJ Meets Seattle"." Wu Xibo nodded, neither looking too eager nor indifferent, and his attitude was very careful.

Although it was in the private room, it was a business and he didn't come for dinner or tea.

Gan Jing lowered his head, glanced at the information on the table, and said, "The heroine has been confirmed, and it's Tang Wei from Anle Movie. The male lead..."

He raised his head and said: "The screenwriter's reference is you, but An Le thinks that you can't support a movie, and is worried that a good story will be badly shot."

Wu Xibo's heart tightened, but his face was calm.

　I'll start making changes tomorrow.
