Choose a day to become famous

Lu Yanhe used to be the spokesperson for Yemai.com for a while, and there was a honeymoon period for that period.

For Yemai.com, Lu Yanhe's cooperation with them has indeed brought Yemai.com to a higher level.

This collaboration is still regarded as one of the classic collaboration cases in the entertainment industry.

The website's tone and user base brought a large amount of stable attention and exposure to Lu Yanhe in its early stages. Lu Yanhe's own public image and his popularity among the public also helped to further strengthen Yemai.com's website image and increase its popularity.

If there had not been problems in the later stages of the cooperation, the two sides might have been able to open up a bigger situation if they had continued to cooperate.

After Lu Yanhe stopped cooperating with Yemai.com, although Yemai.com failed to find Yu Jiang to create a new e-magazine "Star!", the overall development of the website is still very good.

"Will the top management of Yemai.com agree to be acquired?"

"It all depends on the offer from Shijin Group. If the offer is high enough, why not? Everyone's shares can be cashed out directly." Chen Siqi said, "Maybe everyone will be financially independent and can choose to retire and enjoy life directly."

Lu Yanhe: "That's a bit exaggerated."

Chen Siqi: "For those who own company shares, the company's listing is a good opportunity for them to make money, and the company's acquisition is another good opportunity. It depends on what the boss of Yemai.com thinks."

Lu Yanhe: "After Yang Zhouli was punched by Yang Zhoujin, they didn't contact us again, nor did they respond to the matter. They were silent for a while, and suddenly they popped up again because of this news, which is quite surprising."

"Yes." Chen Siqi nodded. "However, it does fit with my previous inference. When Yang Zhouli came to your live broadcast room to apologize, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that we were just being used."

"You mean, Yang Zhouli directed and acted in that movie himself?"

"It's not right to say that he directed and acted in the film. Unless Yang Zhoujin's jerk side was all acting, otherwise, Yang Zhoujin is not something Yang Zhouli can control. I think Yang Zhouli just saw an opportunity to surpass Yang Zhoujin and get in front of everyone." Chen Siqi said, "Think about it, when Yang Zhoujin called Yang Zhouli a bastard that day, what do you think that meant?"

"Are you saying that Yang Zhouli is also an illegitimate child?"

"That's definitely not the case." Chen Siqi shook her head. "Although he was rarely exposed before, he has had a name since he was a child. But it is possible that they do not have the same mother."

"Well."

"Before that incident, of all the young people in the Yang family, Yang Zhoujin was the only one who could publicly appear in public and cause all kinds of news under the name of the Yang family." Chen Siqi said, "And, from what I heard, the Shijin Group originally wanted Yang Zhoujin to be in charge of the entertainment industry. However, as you can see from the news on Yemai.com, Yang Zhoujin is now in charge of this line. I don't know if this is related to what happened on the day of the live broadcast. Anyway, after that, Yang Zhoujin never showed up again."

Lu Yanhe nodded thoughtfully.

"So, we should try to avoid their mess as much as possible, otherwise we really don't know what troubles will come later." Chen Siqi shrugged. "What if we end up becoming a force in the other camp for no reason, and get misunderstood and suffer misfortune? That would be really frustrating."

Lu Yanhe: "Let's just have less contact with Yang Zhouli from now on."

"Yeah." Chen Siqi nodded, "That's true. We should have less contact in the future."

After saying this, Lu Yanhe realized something belatedly. What Chen Siqi had just said sounded very much like what Chen Ziyan would also say.

These women in the workplace seem to be born with a keen insight and an ability to associate. Lu Yanhe didn't find it strange that Chen Ziyan could say these words, but he was still a little surprised that Chen Siqi could say them.

Chen Siqi doesn't know much about his work or Yang Zhouli.

Lu Yanhe smiled and shook his head, feeling incredible.

-

Lu Yanhe met up with Yan Liang, Zhan Yun and others, preparing to walk the red carpet together.

When Li Zhibai saw Lu Yanhe, he immediately made a face.

"You are a bit too much, I can't even invite you out for a meal."

Lu Yanhe said: "I'm not as free as you. I have to accompany Siqi. Don't you have Yan Liang to accompany you?"

Li Zhibai complained immediately: "He was so busy that he started working as soon as he landed. I was his assistant for a while."

Li Zhibai: "I hope one of you two can win the award, otherwise, I would have come here for nothing."

Lu Yanhe said: "It's not up to me to decide this. If you have the ability, you can be a judge, then you can have the final say."

"You're dreaming." Li Zhibai curled his lips.

"Of course my thoughts are beautiful. If my thoughts are not beautiful enough, then what else can I say?" Lu Yanhe said, "Although I am very humble, I also have beautiful dreams every day. Sometimes the dreams are so beautiful that I wake up with joy."

Li Zhibai: "You are such a good person!"

-

There are quite a lot of celebrities in the waiting area of ​​the Golden Globe Awards red carpet abroad.

The star lineup here is still very strong.

Lu Yanhe met Edward Hodgson again.

Darren Wilson took a special photo with them together, which he planned to release to the media later.

At times like this, besides winning awards, exposure is the most important part.

Edward Hodgson whispered thank you to Lu Yanhe again.

Lu Yanhe: "You acted very well, you totally deserve the award."

Edward Hodgson smiled and said, "It depends on whether the judges are willing to give it to me."

He looked at the other people around Lu Yanhe.

"Oh, you are the cast of Friends, right?" Edward Hodgson said, "I recognize you. You also made a guest appearance in Friends. I remember you."

Edward Hodgson said the last sentence to Li Zhibai.

"Are you also following "Friends"? " asked Zhan Yun in surprise.

"Yes, I am following it. I am a loyal viewer of this drama." Edward Hodgson said, "I heard that this drama is also going to be remade into an American TV series and the actors are being selected."

"I don't know what the situation is now." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "I only know that Maxine is producing it.

Edward Hodgson: "I hope you can win the award. I will applaud you loudly."

"I hope so." Lu Yanhe was no longer humble in front of him.

After some greetings, Edward Hodgson took a group photo with everyone.

It's not just Darren Wilson who has publicity tasks, they do as well.

The three main actors of "Friends" came to attend the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, how could they not take some photos and send them back.

The second season of "Friends" is now on the air, which is itself a promotional period.

-

It is true that "Friends" is quite well-known overseas and has been watched by many viewers.

When Lu Yanhe and his group walked onto the red carpet together, Lu Yanhe not only heard the photographers calling his name, but also heard him calling the names of Li Lili and Hu Fan.

These two names are the names of the characters Zhan Yun and Yan Liang in "Friends".

Zhan Yun and Yan Liang were also very surprised to hear these two names.

They had only heard from others that "Friends" had a lot of viewers overseas, but to truly "experience" being followed and liked by so many people, one had to "see it with one's own eyes".

Before they heard the photographers' shouts, they were actually a little nervous, worried that no one would recognize them when they walked on the red carpet.

However, the Golden Globe Awards red carpet is actually shorter and easier to walk.

The really difficult red carpets to walk on are those at the Oscars and international film festivals. Their red carpets are either as long as a catwalk or there are so many photographers that you have to stop almost every time you take a step.

For Lu Yanhe, nowadays, attending any occasion or walking on the red carpet doesn’t make him too nervous, but he does get excited. But he didn’t feel that way at the Golden Globe Awards. He was also surprised, and he thought it was because he was with other people, so he didn’t feel like he was alone.

Another thing, although no one said it, he felt from Zhan Yun and the others that "he is their support", so he couldn't be nervous at this time, or show too much excitement, or the desire to show off would come unconsciously, he had to be "normal", and act like "I am already familiar with it, and it's commonplace".

Once you enter the inner venue, the socializing really begins.

Before Lu Yanhe could say hello to others, many people had already come to him.

Everyone started by congratulating and wishing everyone a happy new year, then talked about several film projects such as "Red Eye" and "Source Code", and then talked about "Godless", which he will star in later. From everyone's attitude, it can be fully felt that they believe Lu Yanhe will gain a firm foothold in Hollywood in the future.

Lu Yanhe brought Yan Liang, Li Zhibai, Zhan Yun and a few others to greet a group of actors and introduce them to each other.

Because the red carpet segment was so long, they were in no hurry to sit in the main hall.

In the waiting area inside the venue, there were cigarettes, wine, and drinks. Everyone was chatting and greeting each other. Since there were no media or paparazzi, everyone was relatively relaxed.

About twenty minutes later, Jiang Yuqian came in, and ten minutes later, Chen Bige and Zhang Ruozhi came in one after another.

Lu Yanhe himself couldn't help but sigh, saying: "I have never seen so many Chinese actors at an event abroad at the same time."

When he said this, Jiang Yuqian had just finished greeting the person next to her and turned around.

“It’s the first time for me to encounter this, too,” she said. “It’s great.”

They entered the main hall one after another and found their seats to sit down.

The creators of "Friends" and another nominated British TV series sat at the same table.

A spy drama that was very popular last year.

Everyone got to know each other and exchanged greetings.

Chen Bige and Zhang Ruozhi sat on the other side.

Chen Siqi said: "I didn't expect that the Golden Globe Awards ceremony would be held in a round table. I thought it was a theater environment."

She looked around curiously.

Because it was her first time to come in, and see in person so many stars in the backstage, whom she had only seen in the news and in film and television dramas, Chen Siqi was quite surprised.

After dealing with the entertainment industry for a long time, many people will become disenchanted with celebrities. However, some people will always remain passionate about this industry, and Chen Siqi is one of them. She knows that many celebrities and artists are not worthy of their positions and rely entirely on packaging.

However, she is a person who can find the positive side instead of magnifying the negative side. In the entertainment industry, she met some people whom she really admired and respected, such as Chen Bige, who has superb acting skills, Jiang Yuqian, who is even more hardworking than a model worker, Jiang Jun, who waited until the clouds cleared and the moon appeared, and a large number of actors in the Jump Up Theater who are not famous but love this industry and have good acting skills.

So, when Chen Siqi sees these stars, her reaction is not “these are rubbish”, but curiosity about the experiences behind each of their success.

Being popular for a while is a matter of luck, being popular for a period of time is a matter of strength, and being popular for a long time requires support from all aspects.

The further back you are, the richer your experience.

-

As the Golden Globe Awards began, what they didn't expect was that the Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series award, for which Lu Yanhe was nominated, was actually awarded in the first few ceremonies.

Before Lu Yanhe could react, he had already announced that the award had nothing to do with him.

The winner is an actor from an American TV series.

Lu Yanhe subconsciously clapped with everyone and kept smiling.

Chen Siqi whispered in Lu Yanhe's ear: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Lu Yanhe shook his head. "I knew long ago that there was basically no chance of winning the award."

Chen Siqi asked: "What about the Best Screenplay Award later?"

"I don't know about that. Maybe there will be a role, maybe not." Lu Yanhe said, "For acting awards, unless my work is a big hit, or I have accumulated enough competitive capital in Hollywood, otherwise, for foreign actors like us in foreign dramas, being nominated is a kind of affirmation. This is a common perception in this environment."

Chen Siqi nodded.

"Understood."

Lu Yanhe added: "Relatively speaking, the script award is more pure and focuses more on the content. Among these technical department awards, it is probably because it is not a key award - although the script award is a big award, it is not as biased as the acting award."

“That may not be called prejudice.”

"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded. "Anyway, that's what I mean. When people are choosing the script award, they won't consider so many off-site factors."

Chen Siqi nodded.

-

Lu Yanhe is going to present the award for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series.

This award was presented just after the two previous awards.

Therefore, Lu Yanhe will soon go backstage to make preparations.

When Lu Yanhe came on stage, there was a burst of applause from the audience.

Lu Yanhe had a bright smile, the kind of bright smile that looked very photogenic.

"Thank you!" He first said this to the audience, and then began to read the award speech and introduce each nominee. However, he did not know any of the nominees, so he could only read out the words. Then, he read out the winner Leonard Gonzalez.

Lu Yanhe remembered him. In addition to being nominated for the Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, he was also nominated for the Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Film.

Double nominations in hand.

A very strong actor.

He took the stage to applause.

Lu Yanhe presented the trophy to him with a smile on his face.

The attitude was quite polite and congratulatory.

What Lu Yanhe didn't expect was Leonard's attitude when he took the trophy from him.

Generally speaking, no matter how great the award winner is, he or she will not neglect to say thank you to the award presenter.

However, not only did Leonard not say thank you, he didn't even look at Lu Yanhe the entire time.

Lu Yanhe showed a bit of surprise.

Just at this moment, he and Leonard were on the live TV and the big screen at the scene.

Lu Yanhe's rather surprised eyebrow raising was seen by everyone.

Everyone at the scene was stunned.

Lu Yanhe didn't say or do anything about it.

He quietly stepped aside and, according to normal protocol, waited for Leonard to finish his acceptance speech before leaving the stage with him.

After Leonard finished his acceptance speech, he walked off the stage without looking back. Unlike normal situations, he did not turn around to look at Lu Yanhe and walk off the stage with him.

Lu Yanhe was now certain that Leonard really disliked him for some reason.

Lu Yanhe almost guessed immediately that Leonard was going to be scolded.

If nothing else, at least one will be branded as a racial discriminator.

At this moment, Lu Yanhe was even more surprised than angry.

He didn't understand why Leonard did this.

He followed him off the stage and returned to his seat.

Coincidentally, after another award was presented, the commercial break began.

-

"Leonard is so rude. He shouldn't have accepted the award from you in that manner."

The British actors sitting at the same table with him all said so directly.

Lu Yanhe shrugged his shoulders, expressing his helplessness and also saying that now that things had come to this, there was nothing more to say.

The British actor at the same table asked, "Did you ever have any conflict with him?"

They subconsciously thought so. How could one person be so rude to another person in public, and both parties were well-known and influential people? If there had been no conflicts and contradictions in the past, how could Leonard do such a rude thing?

Lu Yanhe said: "If you believe me, today is actually the first time I met Leonard. Before this, I had never spoken to him at all."

Everyone at the table looked surprised.

It is really confusing and at a loss.

Afterwards, Darren Wilson came over and said to Lu Yanhe, "He must be here because of your previous support for Edward. He and Edward are both competing for the Best Supporting Actor Oscar this year, and both of them are in the first tier."

Lu Yanhe suddenly realized and was a little surprised.

Is it because of this reason?

"His agent has come to negotiate with me as soon as possible. I hope we can understand."

"Forgive? Then he has to apologize first, right?"

"I think he will apologize. Leonard is not in a clear mind. He expressed his dissatisfaction and anger in this way. In fact, it is a very normal public relations behavior for you to support him. He has the same behavior." Darren Wilson said, "But his performance on the stage this time was too low. His agent is particularly afraid that you will take the lead in criticizing his behavior, which will cast a shadow on his journey to the Oscars."

Lu Yanhe: "I won't do that. However, even if I don't, there will definitely be a lot of people criticizing him online. Can he handle it with public relations?"

"It's difficult to do PR, but normally, his agent should immediately start writing a response, saying that Leonard's behavior on stage was not intentional, but that he was too nervous to ignore you, and then apologize to you. Even if he does this, many people will still not believe him, but on the whole, this matter will pass." Darren Wilson said, "It depends on whether you are willing to let him go like this."

"Of course, I suggest you not to pursue this matter with him, and don't pursue it relentlessly." Darren Wilson added, "This is also to build a good reputation for you. Leonard has many friends in Hollywood. If you are willing to be tolerant and forgive him this time, it will be good for your image."

Lu Yanhe asked: "After he apologizes, do I still need to stand up and accept his apology?"

Darren Wilson: "It depends on how you think about it, whether you want to save face or not."

Lu Yanhe: "With him, no. I really don't want to blame him for his excessive behavior, but if he wants me to play a role with him and perform a scene of forgiveness, then I am not happy about it."

It is right for people, especially artists, to be decent. Therefore, Lu Yanhe did not want to appear too stingy and fuss over such things. But if he was treated "coldly" and still cooperated with others to express "understanding", then he would be too cheap and easy to bully.

Darren Wilson nodded.

"Okay, given your current position, there's really no need for you to compromise," he said, "Then we won't make any response."

-

Afterwards, Yan Liang's Best Actor award and Zhan Yun's Best Actress award were all lost.

"Friends" did not win any of the three acting awards.

Lu Yanhe smiled and shook his head, and said to Yan Liang and Zhan Yun: "It's okay, come again later."

The next award to be presented is the Best Screenplay Award.

Yan Liang: "I hope I can win this award."

"Keep a normal mind." Lu Yanhe said.

I haven't done any public relations and I don't mix in that circle. Just being nominated is enough for me.

Very good.

What surprised Lu Yanhe was that the presenter of the Best Screenplay Award for a Comedy Series was Jiang Yuqian.

Jiang Yuqian walked onto the stage gracefully, radiant and stunning.

Lu Yanhe suddenly had a feeling——

Could it really be that "Friends" won the award?

That's why Jiang Yuqian was specially arranged to present the awards at this session.

Jiang Yuqian read out a speech for the award, opened the envelope, and took out the list of winners.

When she opened it and saw the contents inside, she was suddenly surprised, even crying with joy, and covered her mouth with one hand.

"Friends!"

She looked in the direction of Lu Yanhe.

Yan Liang was the first to stand up and applauded violently.

Lu Yanhe showed an incredible expression, and a surge of joy gushed out from the depths of his heart.

He turned to look at Chen Siqi, and suddenly, unable to control himself, he kissed her on the lips.

The applause all around was as warm as the sea.

Zhan Yun and the others all stood up and laughed excitedly.

Chen Siqi patted Lu Yanhe on the shoulder and said, "Okay, go and get your award."

Lu Yanhe took a deep breath to calm himself down. As he walked over, Darren Wilson suddenly walked through several tables and came to the middle of Lu Yanhe's way to the stage. He gave Lu Yanhe a warm hug and congratulated him.

Lu Yanhe also saw Chen Bige and Zhang Ruozhi out of the corner of his eye.

Both of them were filled with genuine surprise and excitement, and stood up and applauded him.

Lu Yanhe met their gaze and waved.

All the way to the stage.

Jiang Yuqian's eyes had turned red from crying with joy.

She handed the trophy to Lu Yanhe and hugged him excitedly.

Lu Yanhe: "Thank you, Sister Yuqian."

He took the trophy and walked to the microphone.

At this time, he could see that in addition to the people he had just seen, many other people stood up and applauded him.

Including Edward Hodgson.

He even blew a whistle to express his congratulations.

Lu Yanhe held the trophy tightly, turned his head to look at Jiang Yuqian who was standing next to him, and said, "Thank you, Sister Yuqian, you are my lucky goddess."

Jiang Yuqian covered her mouth with her hands, still immersed in excitement and excitement, and had not yet recovered.

Lu Yanhe looked down at the audience.

"Fortunately, thank you Golden Globe Awards and the Foreign Correspondents Club, because you not only nominated me, but also nominated "Friends" and "Love Letters" for several awards. Therefore, I can receive my first important award in the United States in the presence of my familiar friends."

"The return of the show "Friends" is a wonderful adventure in my life, and being able to meet so many like-minded friends to produce this show together is another adventure in my life."

"I am a Chinese actor and a Chinese screenwriter, but I have been recognized by an award that does not belong to China. As a creator of film and television dramas, I am deeply encouraged by this praise from my peers. I also welcome all friends to visit China. I really hope that I can write enough and good scripts in the future and cooperate with every excellent producer, director and actor here. I will continue to work hard."

Lu Yanhe raised the trophy in his hand and smiled particularly brightly.

-

It was a pleasant surprise that "Friends" won the Best Screenplay Award at the Golden Globe Awards.

When Chen Bige lost in her Best Actress category as expected, their trip to the Golden Globe Awards came to an end.

Of course, there is an After Party.

They will all participate.

Lu Yanhe and his friends actually regarded this trip as a promotional tour for "Friends".

It is of great significance that a Chinese drama can be nominated for the Golden Globe Awards. They attended together to use the influence of this award to further promote the popularity of "Friends" in Europe and the United States and attract more audiences.

Of course, the After Party is also an important promotional window.

Here, the atmosphere is much more relaxed.

Every award has been finalized.

For filmmakers, this is just an intermediate stop; the final destination is still to come, the Oscars. But for TV series, this is already the finality.

Another award is the Emmy Awards, which is not much more influential and authoritative than the Golden Globe Awards.

Darren Wilson was very excited and grabbed Lu Yanhe and talked to him many times.

"Hollywood really loves you! You won an award with your first nomination!" Darren Wilson said to Lu Yanhe, "No one expected that Friends would win the Best Comedy Screenplay Award. It's incredible."

Lu Yanhe said, "It's not bad. After all, this drama has a group of viewers all over the world. Although it is not a top-tier hit drama in Europe and the United States, as a non-English drama, the broadcast data is already very good."

"Of course." Darren Wilson asked, "Are you really going back tomorrow? Not staying a few more days? Alas, you are always in a hurry, and I can't help you arrange some exposure."

Lu Yanhe smiled and said, "Wait for me to come and make a movie or promote my work, there will be plenty of opportunities."

When Darren Wilson thought of the many projects that Lu Yanhe would be collaborating on with Hollywood, he nodded and said, "Yeah, OK. I'll help you keep an eye on some of the projects you want."

The project that Lu Yanhe wanted was the kind that could impact top film awards. Because he already had enough commercial films. The two films, The Mist and Godless, were enough to guarantee his performance in the commercial film field in the next few years.

Darren Wilson added: "Just now after Friends won the award, Leonard's agent came to me again. This time his attitude was more sincere. He hoped that we would not take the incident seriously. He also said that an apology would be sent tonight."

Lu Yanhe smiled.

"Has his performance just now caused a lot of controversy and criticism on the Internet?"

"Yes." Darren Wilson nodded. "Especially Asians in Europe and America, there were a lot of protests and criticisms, thinking that he was racially discriminating against you."

The current environment in Europe and the United States is indeed prone to exaggeration.

Lu Yanhe didn't know whether Leonard discriminated against Asians, but in this matter, his motive should not be this.

"The winner of the Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture just now was James Gray. Leonard and Edward didn't win, but both of them should have secured the Oti. "Darren Wilson said, "But if Leonard doesn't handle this matter well, it may affect the Asian judges' votes for him, and even affect other judges."

"He is too impulsive." Lu Yanhe didn't expect that he would comment so objectively and indifferently.

But he agreed with this from the bottom of his heart: In the circle of fame and fortune, no matter how much you dislike someone, you have to give them basic respect on the surface, unless others provoke you first.

To be honest, he stood up for Edward, which is one of the most normal public relations behaviors during the award season. It's not like he affected the fairness. If he stood up to praise Edward by stepping on Leonard, then Leonard would still be qualified to do that thing at the Golden Globe Awards. The problem is, Lu Yanhe never mentioned Leonard at all.

-

Lu Yanhe also met Schmidt Lawley from Midoriya and Zeby Doyle from Parameter at the after party.

Executives of film companies like them, especially front-line executives in charge of film production, basically never miss events like this.

This kind of place, firstly, can update industry trends at any time, and secondly, can maintain relationships with the most popular actors and producers.

Seeing each other from time to time is crucial to relationships between people.

Lu Yanhe and Schmidt Laurie learned about the preparation progress of "Red Eye Flight". The production of this movie is relatively simple, the hotel and the cabin are the two main scenes. Of course, the most important scene is the cabin.

Schmidt Laurie was willing to take on "Red Eye" so quickly because he saw this point.

The production difficulty is so low that any emerging film company can make it.

Schmidt Lawley said: "We are in talks for the male lead. This movie is a one-man show for the male and female protagonists. We also need an actor with a relatively high reputation."

Lu Yanhe asked: "Any directions?"

Schmidt Lawley said, "There is a list and we are looking at them one by one. Auditions will be held when the time comes. If you have time, you can come and take a look."

Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Although I probably don't have time, if I do, I would like to come and see how you choose actors in Hollywood."

“Every company is different,” Schmidt-Lawley said with a laugh.

"The basic logic should be the same." Lu Yanhe said, "What about "Godless"?"

"'Godless' is still in the process of script revision. We will start casting after the final draft is completed." Schmidt Lawley said, "Are you interested?"

"Yeah." Lu Yanhe nodded. "I'm curious about how you choose actors. Sometimes, your Hollywood blockbusters don't really care about big stars. They must be led by first-line actors. I've seen some big productions, such as your Transformers from two years ago, use actors who were not famous at the time."

"Because this IP already has a lot of fans, and based on our understanding of the market, this subject matter itself has a market. Using first-line stars will affect some audiences from watching the movie, unless the actor is so suitable that everyone is looking forward to him playing the role." Schmidt-Lawley said, "For example, when you are asked to play the role in Godless, everyone told me that the Asian role in the movie is suitable for you. We conducted an audience survey and everyone is looking forward to you playing the role. In this case, it makes sense to choose a star."

Lu Yanhe nodded thoughtfully.

The relationship between movies and movie stars is indeed dynamically adjusted. But in China, there is no way to say "It doesn't matter if there are no stars". In China, basically 99% of movies without stars fail. This is market logic. Even if Lu Yanhe gained something from Schmidt-Lawley's words, he did not dare to challenge such a rule easily.

However, before choosing a celebrity actor, it is still quite helpful to conduct an audience survey to understand the audience's acceptance and expectations of a certain celebrity actor playing a certain theme or a certain type of role.

As soon as Lu Yanhe finished talking with Schmidt Lawley and wanted to find other people, he was immediately greeted by someone else.

-

It was almost midnight, and Lu Yanhe and Chen Siqi left first.

In fact, when they left, the after party was far from over.

Jiang Yuqian and the others also stayed at the scene and got to know different people.

Before Lu Yanhe got into the car, he took a look outside. Outside the fence in front, many paparazzi were filming with cameras, and some fans were stopped outside, looking at this side.

Several people recognized Lu Yanhe and called out his name in surprise.

Lu Yanhe thought about it and walked over.

"Why are you still out so late?"

Among these people, there are Asians, Europeans and Americans, but Lu Yanhe can’t tell exactly where they are from.

He knew that Europeans and Americans could see some facial features from different regions in each other, but Lu Yanhe couldn't see it. It was probably just like how Europeans and Americans look at Asians, they all look the same.

The people who called him all looked like young students.

"Can we take a picture together?"

Lu Yanhe nodded, took the phone from them, and took a selfie with them.

"I have to go back, you should go back early too."

They nodded.

Someone else asked, "Is Lili still inside?"

Lili?

Lu Yanhe realized that they were talking about Zhan Yun.

"Oh, yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, "Are you waiting for her?"

"Yes! We are all her fans!" a girl said excitedly, "She is so beautiful!"

"I'll send her a message and tell her." Lu Yanhe said with a smile.

"Can the six of you come together to watch Friends in the future?" another girl said, "I love this show, I'm a fan of all six of you, I hope to see all six of you appear together."

"I'll try to get it in the future." Lu Yanhe smiled, "And I beg you to continue to support this show. Are you watching the second season of Friends, which is currently airing?"

"Of course, we are watching!" they responded firmly.

Lu Yanhe nodded.

"Bye-Bye."

"Bye~"

Lu Yanhe turned around and took Chen Siqi's hand.

Chen Siqi even looked back at them before saying to Lu Yanhe, "Are you happy to meet such fans in a foreign country?"

"Of course." Lu Yanhe nodded. "Actually, I'm always happy when I meet fans. How can I not be happy when someone likes me? I'm just afraid of encountering some uncontrollable extreme situations, especially those that will affect those around me."

"There's nothing you can do about it. Right now you don't have that many fans in the U.S. If you have as many fans as you do in China, you won't be able to stand in front of them and chat and laugh with them like you did just now."

"Indeed." Lu Yanhe suddenly thought of something. "By the way, where is Zhang Ruozhi? She has been following Sister Bi Ge today. Is there anyone watching over her? She has just come of age. Don't let her be fooled in a place like this."

"Don't worry. When I left just now, I saw her manager following her." Chen Siqi nodded. "But, does Sister Bi Ge usually drink as much as she did today? I hesitated for a moment just now, wondering whether I should persuade her."

Lu Yanhe: "You can't persuade her, she loves to drink."

-

Chen Bige was actually very happy.

After winning the Best Actress award at two of the four major international film festivals, she was also nominated for a Golden Globe Award.

Although I didn't win the award in the end.

Over the past few years, her film career, which had been stagnant due to her age, has suddenly experienced rapid growth.

What made Chen Bige feel most emotional tonight was that when she was young, she also ventured into Hollywood. However, at that time, her development in Hollywood was not very smooth. The reviews and box office of the two movies she participated in were very average. After that, she failed and returned to China.

Unexpectedly, a completely Chinese movie "Love Letter" would bring her a nomination for Best Actress.

She met several people who recognized her as the heroine in "Love Letter". They didn't know her before, but recognized her based on the movie.

It is difficult for Chen Bige to describe how he feels.

If I could only use one word to describe it, it would undoubtedly be happy.

And tonight, something else happened, something unexpected.

She left in the early morning, returned to the hotel, and immediately called her agent in China.

This time, the agent did not come with her.

"Bi Ge, you haven't slept yet?"

"I couldn't sleep at all." Chen Bige said, "I just met someone from the Venice Film Festival organizing committee at the Golden Globe Awards After Party. He asked me for my contact information and asked if I would be available next September. Although he didn't say it explicitly, he hinted to me that Piccolo seems to have an idea and invited me to be the chairman of the jury for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival next year!"

Although Chen Bige is a movie queen, she is also a vulgar person.

She has a high status in the domestic film industry, almost at the top. However, in many cases, she still allows herself to act spontaneously - she always assumes that she is an artist and should have such space to act spontaneously and maintain her inner freedom.

But this doesn't mean she is out of touch with the world.

She is well aware of what a career as president of the jury for the main competition unit of the Venice International Film Festival can bring to her career.

This is an honor no less than winning the top award for Best Actress.

Of course she is willing and of course she wants it.

It's just a signal now, and it's not certain yet.

Chen Bige is still too young for the position of jury president now, just in her early forties. Basically, there are very few jury presidents so young in the list of top international film festival jury presidents.

And that is exactly why, if Piccolo really intends to invite her to be the next jury chairman, then the value of her as the jury chairman is self-evident.

Chen Bige knew that she was considered by Picasso because she had won the Best Actress award at the Jose-La Roche Film Festival again and had won two of the four major film awards, which put her in the top tier among the world's actresses.

Recently, Chen Bige was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for her role in "Love Letter".

This resume is very hard.

Excited and unable to fall asleep, Chen Bige ordered room service, which brought up two bottles of red wine. She took out her electronic reader and drank by herself while reading the script she had recently received. (End of this chapter)
