I just want to be an actor

Chapter 182 The greatest challenge in career
Zhou Sen never thought that Ye Yiwen would let him be the director.

As for the male lead, no matter how much Lao Ye paid for the film, as long as the play was good, Zhou Sen would definitely agree to act.

Now, in order for Ye Yiwen on the sickbed to recover from his illness with peace of mind, Zhou Sen had to start thinking about how he should complete this unprecedented challenge in his career.

If this film shooting can be regarded as a national-level director-level task, then Zhou Sen may be the youngest director currently directing a national-level film.

There is actually no complete standard to define national-level movies, but it basically refers to those big movies that are invested by the state and officially announced.

The specifications of this kind of film are all in accordance with the highest standards in the industry.

Zhou Sen has never been in charge of these things himself.

After he got home, he found that Su Jingwen was still sleeping, so he didn't wake her up. In the living room, he seriously thought about what problems he should solve first if he really wanted to be the director.

But Zhou Sen settled down and thought about it seriously, and he suddenly found that after he finished making these films, except for "Manchester by the Sea", he was completely focused on the role of actor.

For other films, he actually participated in the director's work to a greater or lesser extent when he was filming.

And he seems to be doing pretty well in every aspect.

Just never saw myself as a real director.

But now that he reorganized the links he participated in, and coupled with the knowledge of the director department that Shen Xiyu "forced" Zhou Sen to learn before, Zhou Sen found that it was really feasible for him to become a director.

The only troublesome issue was how to get Shen Qingqiu to agree to act in this movie.

Zhou Sen had almost thought about it, and he had a plan.

I first went to the leader to check the corresponding matters, and got the shooting requirements of this project. It is said that the script has been prepared for myself. Ye Yiwen patted his chest, which is not very thick now, and assured Zhou Sen that he would definitely write the script. I like it, and I also want to direct and act on my own, and the script itself gives Zhou Sen a lot of autonomy. He can also make a lot of changes based on the original script, and he can write, direct and act by himself.

It can be said that Ye Yiwen gave Zhou Sen a very high degree of freedom.

Zhou Sen didn't know that Ye Yiwen had worked so hard on the phone to ask the leaders for a chance to show Zhou Sen.

It's not that the leaders don't believe Ye Yiwen's vision, but they all feel that Zhou Sen, who is only 22 years old, is still a bit too young. Then slowly use the results to prove yourself.

It's just that Ye Yiwen used his own illness as an excuse, coupled with his eccentric temperament, to assure the leader that there are only two people in the world who can make this movie, one is himself, and the other is Zhou Sen who he directed.

If Shen Xiyu knew about it, she might run to pick up Ye Yiwen and use her hands to discuss who is the one who really guided Zhou Sen.

But even if Zhou Sen doesn't know that Ye Yiwen used his career accumulation of honors to get this opportunity, he will use [-]% energy to face this challenge.

In any case, this is Ye Yiwen's trust in him, and it is the test of the party and the organization.

He decided to ask Lu Yang to be his assistant director.

With such an experienced assistant director, Zhou Sen felt that even if there were some mistakes when he was the first director, Lu Yang would use his experience to help him fill them in.

Moreover, he had cooperated with Lu Yang before, but last time Lu Yang took the initiative to add him to the list of assistant directors.

The two of them are cooperating very well, and the work efficiency is also very high.

As for the casting of other actors, Zhou Sen felt a little overwhelmed.

He had never been cast for a role, only himself was chosen.

This sudden power amplifier switch made him a little uncomfortable.

He thought for a long time in the living room, until Su Jingwen came out of the room after waking up and saw him sitting on the sofa meditating alone, he came back to his senses.

"What's wrong? How's Ye Lao's body?"

Su Jingwen was holding an ordinary pillow in her arms, and she was wearing a cute pajamas.

Her look doesn't match her age and personality at all, and she looks a little too childish and cute.

Zhou Sen stretched out his hands towards her, beckoning her to give her a loving hug.

But Su Jingwen handed the pillow in her arms to Zhou Sen, let him hold it by himself, and then took advantage of the opportunity to sit beside him.

"It's okay, just need to rest."

Zhou Sen answered Su Jingwen's question, but his expression did not escape Su Jingwen's observation so easily.

"Then you look sad, don't you?"

She thought about it, if Mr. Ye was in good health, then Zhou Sen would be so brooding and sad
"Does he want you to act with Shen Qingqiu again?"

Su Jingwen is a woman with keen intuition, she grasped the key information right away.This sentence hit the spot, and Zhou Sen raised his eyebrows subconsciously.

"It seems that I have hit the mark."

Su Jingwen sighed softly, she shook her head and said.

"According to your personality, you must have agreed. Since you agreed, let's rest and wait for the filming to start."

Although she was not very supportive of Zhou Sen and Shen Qingqiu's acting together, and then under Ye Yiwen's guidance, she forcibly helped the fallen little queen to regain her status, but since Ye Laosheng mentioned this matter, with Zhou Sen's character and character, she must agree, so she doesn't have much to talk about.

She is a smart woman, this kind of thing is like Zhou Sen decides to donate all his income, she can only support it.

"Um"

"But it's a little different."

Zhou Sen nodded and shook his head again.

"This time, Lao Ye wants me to be the director, to be the director and lead director of the famous movie in his hands. I will be in charge of the entire crew. He only hopes that I can invite Shen Qingqiu to be the heroine. He'll help me out."

Zhou Sen told Ye Yiwen's plan with a wry smile.

He felt that Su Jingwen would not particularly support his becoming a director.

Who knew, Su Jingwen's eyes lit up, she seemed quite happy.

She was not in a hurry to speak, but pondered over there.

"What? Do you have an idea? Why don't you beg me to let me unspoken rules? I let you be the number two female?"

Looking at Su Jingwen's smiling face, Zhou Sen couldn't help teasing her.

Su Jingwen gave Zhou Sen a blank look, reached out and slapped him on the arm, expressing her disdain for him.

"You director's ass has not been heated yet, and the unspoken rules are arranged? You are so powerful!"

Zhou Sen stretched out his arms to embrace her.

"Then you have to have the chance to let me open the back door."

"Okay, let's talk about business."

Su Jingwen did not break away from Zhou Sen's embrace, but she wanted to ask Zhou Sen's thoughts with a straight face.

"Then what are your plans? Although you are going to be a director, you can't do everything by yourself. You are too busy and tired, and you still have to act."

Zhou Sen was about to tell Su Jingwen her thoughts, but she was one step ahead of him and began to help him figure out who could help.

"In this way, Lu Yang should have a schedule now. Although the assistant director position of this kind of national film may not be so attractive to him, for your sake, this position means more. You can Bring him over to be your assistant director, and then you can leave some chores to him."

Su Jingwen was really thinking seriously, and her thinking speed was quite fast, and she immediately thought of the candidate Zhou Sen was considering.

"And you have already cooperated before, and the efficiency of working together is definitely not low, and the running-in speed should be quite fast."

Zhou Sen couldn't help chuckling, pinched, rubbed, rubbed lightly, and said with a smile.

"You are really a roundworm in my stomach. I just wanted to say it, but you thought of it."

"Don't compare me to that weird thing."

Su Jingwen stretched out her hand and squeezed it back precisely.

"In addition to Lu Yang, you can also invite Fang Chen and his wife who helped you in Dongsen before. They are good at executing two points. They should be okay in helping you manage the entire crew. It feels like a panacea. Besides, the two of them can be regarded as our own people. Fang Chen is still working in Xinfeng, so it is not difficult to transfer to help. A crew is so big, if you want to have enough control, you still need to install us more One’s own.”

She had already begun to imagine the struggle for power in a crew.

It's no wonder she thought too much, since Zhou Sen was the director at such a young age, it's inevitable that some experienced and capable people would have dissatisfied ideas.

Su Jingwen wanted to give Zhou Sen a back hand so that he could control the entire crew.

"And me, anyway, I will accompany you to help at any time. Although I don't participate in film and television creation very often, it would be good for you to watch more."

Zhou Sen looked at Su Jingwen muttering in his arms, brainstorming, but it seemed that she was going to be a director, not himself.

She can really help herself worry about it.

But if he gets a wife like this, what else does the husband want?

I should be even more grateful that I was able to meet such a manager and girlfriend.

"OK~~~"

When Zhou Sen spoke, he deliberately elongated his voice, which caused Su Jingwen to slap him a few more times.

"Be serious!"

“Okay~~~”

"Are you still here?!"

"Not coming~~~"

Playing around and playing around, Su Jingwen's proposal is indeed feasible, but Zhou Sen needs to invite these people himself, and Su Jingwen has no way to do it for her.

Fang Chen and his wife are easy to talk about. They have always been firm supporters of the Zhou faction. Zhou Sen needs their help, so he will report without saying a word.

Zhou Sen mainly had to call Lu Yang to ask if he would like to, and he had to personally persuade Shen Qingqiu.

Zhou Sen found Lu Yang's WeChat and sent him a message asking if it was convenient for him to answer the phone. After receiving the answer, he made a voice call directly.

"Hello? Why did the film king remember me?"

Lu Yang's voice sounded quite leisurely, he didn't seem to be busy with something, the call was able to get through, and the matter was settled, Zhou Sen felt a lot more at ease.

"No, I really miss you."

"What's the matter? Are you not filming in America now?"

Lu Yang was a little surprised, he looked at the time, it should be late at night in America right now?
"Didn't you stay in the United States in the middle of the night? Didn't you call me in the middle of the night just to tell me you missed me?"

"No, I need to ask you for help. I went back to China overnight last night."

Zhou Sen explained that Lu Yang's coquettishness made him feel somewhat irresistible.

"Tch, you really miss me because you have something to do, stinky man, man's mouth, deceitful ghost, if you don't want to help, find someone else."

The feeling of Lu Yang joking with Zhou Sen is getting better and better. What he said, the arrogance has already passed through the phone, making Su Jingwen, who was eavesdropping, get goosebumps all over her body. She even looked at Zhou Sen in shock. Zhou Sen seems to have begun to think seriously about the real relationship between Zhou Sen and Lu Yang.

"Guozihao Film, assistant director, come and do me a favor, if you can, just one word."

"I was also ordered in a crisis, so I thought you could help me."

Zhou Sen didn't answer Lu Yang's arrogant words, and went straight to the point and made his purpose clear.

Not so many empty ones.

"National name? Assistant director?"

Lu Yang repeated Zhou Sen's words in surprise.

"Then you mean, you are the director of this movie?"

"Why not?"

There was a sudden loud noise from Lu Yang's side, and Zhou Sen couldn't hear what Lu Yang was screaming strangely there.

After a long time, Lu Yang stopped, and he said quietly.

"You guys are really on the road to robbing me of my job. How did you become a famous actor as soon as you became a director? I knew that I would also be an actor. I feel that I will definitely win an Oscar for playing Monkey King."

"One word, say it quickly."

Zhou Sen listened to the guy on the other side rambling.

"Row!"

Lu Yang said decisively.

"That's really great. I just recently heard that there is a foot wash in Chaoyang."

"stop!"

Just when Lu Yang was about to open his mouth to continue talking about the old days with Zhou Sen, talking about the interesting things he had encountered recently, the chat between men might contain some weird content, Zhou Sen immediately stopped.

"I have to continue to find someone, and save gossip for the meeting."

Zhou Sen took a peek at Su Jingwen, who was eavesdropping seriously, from the corner of his eye, and hung up Lu Yang's phone.

"Hey, hey, hey, you're trying to burn a bridge by crossing a river! I haven't said anything yet."

"Toot. Toot."

Zhou Sen quickly pressed Lu Yang's WeChat number, and looked at Su Jingwen with a smile.

"Then now we mainly have to think about how to persuade Shen Qingqiu."

Su Jingwen obviously didn't care about what Lu Yang said just now, she nodded.

"Get ready before visiting her at home. I'll find some information about her and sort it out. Let's discuss and discuss before we act."

"Row!"
