“Your status has risen to another level. The director of the Spring Festival Gala came to me and asked if you were interested in performing at the Spring
Festival Gala. If you are interested, we can discuss further.”
Lu Zhen was stunned. “What should I perform? I don’t know anything.”
Other than acting, she was not professional in other aspects. The Spring Festival Gala could be said to be the most influential variety show in the country. If she acted unprofessionally, she would definitely disappoint the audience.
Ye Xuan sighed. “Can you not look down on yourself so much? You’re not the only celebrity who attended the Spring Festival Gala. If you’re worried that you won’t be able to do a professional song and dance performance, you can start with guest appearances. Many celebrities will choose this relatively conservative method when they first step onto the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.’
Lu Zhen’s thoughts were immediately opened. If it was a skit, it would more or less be related to acting. She could give it a try.
“But aren’t all the skits for the Spring Festival Gala contracted to the team? This depends on whether they’re willing to accept me, right?” Lu Zhen asked tentatively.
“What’s your status now? Generally speaking, only you can choose someone else’s role. Basically, no one will reject you. Moreover, you’re not the kind of stupid celebrity who only has a face to look at. If you join the skit team, you can also bring them popularity.”
Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Lu Zhen felt more confident. Participating in the Spring Festival Gala was indeed beneficial to a celebrity. After all, this was a stage for everyone. Not only could they expand their influence, but their nationality could also take a new step.
“If you think there’s no problem, I’ll help you choose a skit team. Acting in a skit is definitely much easier than filming a movie,” Ye Xuan said.
Lu Zhen shook her head. “That depends on the role. It’s actually very difficult to act in a comedy role that has more jokes.”
After all, Ye Xuan was not a real actress, so her understanding in this aspect was not accurate. In the acting industry, comedians were much rarer than ordinary actors. Comedy creation was the most difficult. If it was not done well, it could easily become a farce. The logic of comedy creation was also different from other scripts.
There was a very famous comedy director in the country. When he was filming the comedy movie, he set a requirement: Everyone at the event location had to smile. As long as one person did not smile, they had to start all over again.
Moreover, comedy was not just superficial and pure absurdity. Comedy needed to have a core. It could not be designed just to make the audience laugh.
“When the time comes, let’s see what roles you can choose.”
Ye Xuan was very assured of Lu Zhen. She believed that even if Lu Zhen really got a role she was not good at, Lu Zhen would definitely have a way to solve the problem. Not long after returning to the country, Lu Zhen suddenly received a message from Director Gao Fan.
Gao Fan asked her to arrive at the set as early as possible, planning to film her scenes first.
Lu Zhen was a little surprised. Initially, she thought that Gao Fan would finish filming most of the other main leads’ scenes first. She did not have many scenes, so she could film them at any time.
The production team of “Under the Cherry Blossom Tree” had yet to wrap up. Although Lu Zhen did not have many scenes left, Wei Ji would have some new ideas from time to time. He would add some scenes or modify his previous scenes.
Lu Zhen and Yang Na had no choice but to try their best not to accept other business activities.
Previously, Lu Zhen had taken a few days off to participate in the Holy Grail
Film Festival. After she returned, Wei Ji even complained a few times. Now, Gao Fan wanted her to join the production team as soon as possible. Lu Zhen was in a difficult position and could only discuss it with Wei Ji.
When Wei Ji heard this, he was immediately unhappy. His eyebrows were almost raised. “You don’t have many scenes. Why is he in a hurry?”
According to the original arrangement, there would not be a conflict if Lu Zhen went to the two production teams. In at most a month, all the scenes in “Under the Cherry Blossom Tree” would be completed.
However, the situation had changed. After Gao Fan found out that Wei Ji was unwilling to let Lu Zhen go, he was silent for a few seconds before saying, “I’ll find him to coordinate.’
Lu Zhen did not know what Gao Fan had said to Wei Ji, but in the end, Wei Ji relented and allowed Lu Zhen and the other production team to run back and forth. Although he had relented, Wei Ji t s expression was not very good.
“After you go to his place, don’t spoil his bad temper. Hurry up and come back after filming,” Wei Ji said impatiently.
Although Gao Fan was a big director, Wei Ji had an extraordinary personality and did not take Gao Fan seriously at all.
Lu Zhen could only smile guiltily.
Wei Ji dared to say that, but she did not dare to be so perfunctory. She could not afford to offend either director. The next day, after arriving at the production team of “Rain and Fog”, Lu Zhen felt that the atmosphere in the production team was a little oppressive. She did not understand what had happened, so she could only ask Li Feng..
