The capital of the entertainment circle is the acting school

Chapter 47 Parting

The quarrel between the two finally ended with Leo admitting defeat. In order to show his sincerity, Leo read the self-criticism letter he had written to Sheng Jingnan himself, and said that he would listen to his wife in the future. What, he obeyed unconditionally.

In this way, when the time came to the thick summer, "Awakening" started, Leo brought Wendy into the group, and began a separated life with Sheng Jingnan.

It stands to reason that when a new drama is launched, it will do publicity, announcing to the media and the circle what it will do next, but "Awakening" is different. Its launch does not have any publicity or celebration, just like that silently It started without interest, and the mystery is quite strong.

On the first day of joining the crew, Leo didn't have many roles. He only needed to cooperate with a few supporting roles to match the lines, and he didn't even have a substantive front.In this case, it is reasonable to say that a stand-in can be used instead, but Leo has always been serious about filming, and director Pete is also very demanding, so at the end of the day, Leo, a big star, acts as a supporting role for a whole day green leaves background.

Because he hadn't filmed for a long time, even though there were not many scenes on the first day, Leo felt that he was a little bit overwhelmed, especially in some parts of the lines, he suddenly felt that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

"Wendy, come to my room after dinner and check your lines with me." When Leo said this, he and Wendy were sitting in the restaurant of the hotel after work.

Because of the particularity of "Awakening", the crew specially booked a hotel not far from where they were filming, removed all the service personnel, and replaced them with their own staff to serve the actors of the crew.

"Okay." Wendy nodded, and was about to take out the ipad from the bag to take notes. When she touched the empty bag, she remembered that all communication tools were confiscated when she joined the group, and the ipad was naturally included.

He took out a notebook and a pen from the bag, and after finishing what Leo told her, Wendy raised her head and stared at Leo who was eating seriously opposite her.

"Leo, I always feel that the crew is a bit weird this time?"

"Why is it so strange?" Leo put down the knife and fork, and looked at Wendy in confusion.

"Look at the filming in the past, where there was a requirement to collect transportation, and only one assistant was allowed, it's not strange..."

"You women just like to think wildly. Director Pete has always been more demanding. Don't you think other actors are the same?"

"No, Leo, women have a sixth sense, I really think..."

"I'm too lazy to tell you. If I had known this, I would have called Jing Nan here." Leo shook his hand, obviously not wanting to listen to Wendy's nonsense, moved the chair a little, and prepared to go back to the room first.

"Leo, do you know who the heroine is with you?"

Wendy's last words stopped Leo from leaving. He frowned subconsciously, remembering the script that Pete had given him before. It didn't say who the heroine was at all.

This shouldn't be. It stands to reason that before filming, the male and female protagonists should communicate with each other and play against each other so that they can be more in tune with each other when acting. However, today's scenes are all finished, and he still doesn't know who the heroine is.

"Wendy, we still respect Director Pete's arrangement. When the heroine should appear, she will naturally appear."

Ever since Leo went to film, Sheng Jingnan's life has returned to its usual calm. The company's affairs have been taken care of, and the news from Shengjingli in China is also good. He is suddenly free and draws every day. , Watering the flowers, or learning about the recent economic situation, the whole person is almost hairy.

Obviously he lived the same kind of life before, and obviously he never felt bored before, Sheng Jingnan didn't understand why he didn't get used to it all of a sudden.

Taking advantage of his free time, Sheng Jingnan researched Leo's villa all over, and by the way found the CDs of every movie Leo had filmed since his debut in a hidden compartment in the study.I really didn't expect that the man didn't seem to care about these things, but he didn't want to keep his movies so precious, and he was afraid that others would find out.

Anyway, being idle was idle, Sheng Jingnan simply found out all the discs, starting from the earliest one, he started to watch slowly.

In the beginning, he watched one movie every day, thinking that this way he would not miss that person so much. Later, he watched movies day and night, one after another, and then he fell asleep deeply, otherwise he would never interruption.

In this way, Sheng Jingnan spent the first month relying on the movie shot by Leo.

Of course, during this period, someone called him three times. He didn't answer the first call. He hung up decisively on the second call after listening to the other party's request. On the third call, he hesitated for a long time without saying a word, and then The person opposite couldn't wait and hung up first.

Seeing the familiar number flashing on the phone for the fourth time, Sheng Jingnan took a deep breath and picked up the phone.

"Hey, let's make an appointment and talk."

In the end, the appointment was at a coffee shop downstairs from Sheng Jingnan's company. He had a vague feeling that the person who came was not friendly, so for safety's sake, he would of course make all the preparations, because his life, Sheng Jingnan, was in the eyes of some people. , or valuable.

The appointment was at three o'clock in the afternoon, and Sheng Jingnan was a quarter of an hour late. He did it on purpose to see the sincerity of the other party.It's just that he didn't expect that the person who came was actually a woman.

It was an Asian woman, she didn't look very Chinese, she had fair skin and delicate facial features, but she revealed strength and domineering everywhere, and even had a feeling that Sheng Jingnan didn't like, as for what kind of feeling, he couldn't tell .

"Mr. Sheng, you're here!" Seeing Sheng Jingli's arrival, the woman immediately got up from her seat, bent down and bowed to him. "Hello, I'm Reiko, the person in charge of negotiating with you."

"What about him?" Sheng Jingnan searched around, but couldn't find the person he was looking for.

"The boss has been inconvenient recently, so he entrusted me with full authority to negotiate with you on his behalf. Don't worry, I will pass your request to the boss."

"You are...Japanese." Sheng Jingnan frowned subconsciously, not because he was racist, but because he really didn't like the Japanese.

"Yes."

"Okay." Sheng Jingnan nodded, and sat down on the seat in a polite manner: "I have no intention of cooperating with you. The reason why I asked you out this time is to express my rejection in person. By the way, I will tell you not to give me any more money." I call."

"But..." Reiko tidied up her clothes, and sat opposite Sheng Jingnan: "But you are the best candidate, the boss said, there is no better one in this world..."

"Miss Lingzi seems to have forgotten what my profession is?" Sheng Jingnan smiled lightly, took a sip of coffee, "No, the building next door to this coffee shop is my company, if Miss Lingzi still doesn't agree with my profession, If you know it well, I’d be happy to take you to visit our company.”

"No, we know everything about Mr. Sheng. But you seem to have forgotten that your first pot of gold came from..."

"Enough!" Sheng Jingnan put the coffee cup heavily on the table, the smile on the corner of his mouth had long since disappeared, and even a trace of chill began to seep into his eyes. "Did your boss teach you to talk to me in this way? Mr. Sheng is not self-effacing. You are not qualified to negotiate with me just because of you."

"Sorry, Mr. Sheng, my tone just now..."

"If you are sincerely cooperating with me, please ask your boss to come over, maybe I will think about it." Taking the scepter that was put aside, Sheng Jingnan's face returned to the usual calm and breezy.

"Miss Reiko, please settle the bill." While speaking, he left a black business card in the coffee cup, and left the cafe with slow and elegant steps.

Leo felt like he was going crazy. He had been on the set for more than a month, and he couldn't surf the Internet, go out, or even make phone calls. In the past, with his professional level, he could accept it, but now After having Sheng Jingnan, he really couldn't bear it all day.

"Wendy, do I have much drama tomorrow?"

"Not many, just one scene, free in the afternoon."

"You get me a car, I want to go out." Leo scratched his hair irritably, thinking that he was also stupid, what kind of shit contract, is he such an obedient person?

He is going to see his wife, and no one can stop him.

"Okay." Wendy nodded, supporting Leo's breach of contract for the first time.

In fact, she was more eager to go out than Leo. As the filming started, the more time passed, the more uneasy she became. This is a woman's sixth sense, which cannot be deceived.Therefore, Wendy wanted to take this opportunity to go out and talk to Sheng Jingnan. After all, that person had seen a lot in the world and his IQ was online, so he would know something if he told her.

The next day, Leo was filming as usual, and Wendy got Leo's permission to stay in the hotel to rest on the grounds of being sick, and she didn't go with her.

But in fact, Leo and she both knew what she was going to do.

In order to avoid disrupting the plan, Leo took the filming of the morning scene very seriously, basically it was a one-off.

"Leo, you don't have a show this afternoon. I'll stay here and I have something to tell you." Leo finished filming and was about to leave when Pete stopped him suddenly, as if he already knew his plan.

"My assistant is ill. I want to go back to the hotel to see her."

"No." Pete decisively rejected Leo's request.

Leo had no choice but to wait on the set to see what the great director was going to do.

Finally, at noon, the filming of the big director's film was finally finished, and he took Leo back to the hotel. When he arrived at the hotel, he answered a phone call, saying that another character in the film had arrived and wanted to meet.

"I'll introduce you to someone, your opponent." Pete hung up the phone with a smile all over his face, and stood outside the hotel waiting for someone with Leo.

Half an hour later, Leo saw a white figure walking towards the hotel in a wheelchair pushed by a very strong-looking man.

"Jing Nan?"

"You know him?!" Pete glanced at Leo, and stepped forward to meet the person who came.

"Mr. Sheng, thank you for being invited to participate in the filming. This is the leading actor of the film, Leo."

"I know." Sheng Jingnan smiled lightly, raised his head, and gave that person the most beautiful smile.

"Leo, long time no see."
