Yu Jing's writing style is good. Just a few sentences of description made Chu Baixia feel like she was actually there. As the plot deepened, a creepy chill spread from the soles of her feet to her whole body.
The excited voice was like thunder exploding in my ears: "How is it?"
Chu Baixia trembled and almost threw the script away. He showed an ugly smile, as if there were countless bugs crawling on his body, and he was restless: "Director Jing, the writing is very good."
Don’t write it next time.
"Okay, I'll find the actor." Yu Jing jumped up happily.
Seeing that he didn't open the Tianshu APP, Chu Baixia was surprised: "Don't you recruit actors on the APP like before?"
Yu Jing scratched his cheek: "Actually, I already have someone in mind."
…
When Liu Xu received Yu Jing's invitation, she was caught in a surprise and didn't react for a long time.
It was the manager who slapped her on the shoulder that woke up the silly girl.
In just a few days, Liuxu became very haggard, and the dark future made her very confused, not knowing what to do next.
"This is an opportunity!" The agent held her hand and told her word for word, "This is our only chance to turn around."
LiuXu nodded fiercely.
On the day of the virtual space interview, the agent came over because he was worried.
Yu Jing, who had been waiting in the conference room for a long time, waved her hand cheerfully: "Hey, long time no see."
Liuxu's eyes suddenly turned red, and various feelings emerged in her heart. If it weren't for Director Jing's appreciation, she might still be an unknown little actress.
Now, Director Jing saved her again.
"Let's take a look at the script first. I think the role of the female lead is very suitable for you." Yu Jing motioned for the two of them to sit down and handed the script to Liu Xu.
After turning the first page, the girl was at a loss.
Painted skin... what is it?
"Painting on skin?" she asked, confused.
Yu Jing held her chin with one hand, smiling and saying in a very harmless tone: "Absolutely."
The agent curiously came over to watch together.
The male protagonist accidentally rescues a woman and brings her back to the mansion... the lady in the mansion...
After only seeing the first page, the expressions of Liu Xu and the manager became more and more subtle. The manager did not care about Yu Jing and sat opposite him. He openly put on a disappointed expression: "Director Jing, we don't want this role..."
Liu Xu interrupted her: "It's okay, I'll take it."
The agent growled: "Do you know what you are talking about? Do you think you can't die fast enough?"
Forget about the other directors, who is Yu Jing?
Every one of his films is a hit. If Liu Xu plays a mistress again, it will not be the effect of 1+1=2!
I’m afraid there will be no room for improvement by then!
LiuXu nodded calmly: "I know."
Director Jing was so kind to her that she would not flinch even if she played another mistress or ten more roles. Without Director Jing, she would not be where she is today.
The manager glared at her fiercely, and explained to Yu Jing with an apologetic smile: "...She can't blame others for committing suicide, but now she has finally made up her mind to transform. I really don't want her to make the same mistake again..."
Yu Jing's eyes lit up. This was because she was giving him a pillow when she felt sleepy.
"Then Liu Xing is going to star." The young director slammed the table excitedly, "I promise it will be impressive!"
Maybe it can even become a psychological shadow.
Impressive mistress? The agent wanted to cry but did not dare to offend Yu Jing, so he could only bite the bullet and continue reading the script.
LiuXu was very calm and continued to scroll down.
As they watched, the two of them widened their eyes. Liuxu squeezed the script tightly, her pupils narrowed little by little, blue blood vessels loomed on the back of her hands, and the slowly flowing blood almost solidified.
In the silent living room, only the heavy breathing of the two people could be heard.
The clear voice, with a lingering smile, sounded like thunder in the living room.
"How about it, I said..."
The agent trembled in fright, and reflexively held his head and screamed: "Ahhhhhhh!"
The piercing screams echoed in the room, and like a chain reaction, Liuxu was so frightened that she dropped the script and huddled in the sofa, shivering.
The corners of Yu Jing's mouth twitched and she subconsciously blocked her ears.
When the two of them came back to their senses and looked at him in shock, Yu Jing complained: "You two can use your voices to sing high notes."
"Yes, I'm sorry." The manager apologized with a trembling voice.
Yu Jing didn't care and asked Liu Xu with a smile: "How is it? Do you think it's okay?"
Catkin: "..."
Can't!
She would rather play Green Tea!
After returning to her senses, Liuxu tried hard to forget the creepiness the script gave her, and nodded with difficulty: "No problem."
--I can!
The girl burst into tears while reading the script. Director Jing, what inspired you to write a horror script?
Yu Jing picked up the script and handed it over: "Then go back and get familiar with it first. I will inform you of the specific shooting time."
Liuxu leaned back subconsciously, wanting to stay away from the script. Finally, she took it tremblingly and gave a smile that was uglier than crying: "I will try my best."
Finally, the two helped each other stand up and left the conference room with weak hands and feet.
Thanks to the holographic cabin, after leaving, the script will be turned into data and stored in the optical brain, so she doesn't need to hold it.
Yu Jing touched her chin: "So, who should the male lead and the second female lead look for?"
He still tends to look for acquaintances. Chinese-themed horror films are fundamentally different from interstellar horror films. Compared with flesh-and-blood interstellar films, Yu Jing's script is more of a test of acting skills.
So Yu Jing wanted to find someone he knew. First, he was familiar with each other's temper, and second, he was easy to train.
Before Yu Jing could decide who to look for, the Film and Television Association approached him first.
"Chinese Short Drama Festival?" Yu Jing drove to the Film and Television Association. As soon as he entered the building, he was pulled into the office by Ji Chengye.
After not seeing each other for such a long time, the old man still had a bad face when talking to him. Yu Jing couldn't get used to his bad temper and said bluntly: "Old man Ji, if you can't stand me, don't look for me!"
The temperature in September was so hot that even her shoes couldn't stop the heat wave from the ground while walking on the road. Yu Jing didn't want to go out at all, she just wanted to stay at home and work.
The assistant pushed the door open and came in, bringing two cups of tea. Yu Jing winked at her: "Beautiful lady, I want to drink water, and I also want ice cubes. It's so hot."
The assistant smiled softly and went out to pour Yu Jing some cold drinks and get some ice cubes.
Ji Chengye was so angry that he blew his beard and stared: "Drinking ice will increase the moisture in the body. Don't you understand that a calm mind will naturally cool down?"
"But I see you're not quiet at all." Yu Jing pointed to the sweat on his forehead, not giving him any face.
When Liang Baikai and the ice cubes arrived, Yu Jing picked up the tong and put the ice cubes in. Fortunately, he remembered Pei Yi's instructions and stopped after placing the fourth piece.
"Why are you doing the Chinese Short Drama Festival?" Yu Jing took a satisfied sip to soothe his throat that was almost smoking.
Ji Chengye explained angrily: "There are a lot of Chinese materials that have been restored recently, and the association wants to popularize science with the public."
There have been science popularization lectures in the past, and famous experts were present. Unfortunately, the audience was drowsy every time, and the science popularization effect was very little.
Until Yu Jing stepped into the director circle and told everyone with facts, data science popularization is not as impressive as movie variety shows.
The association decided to hold the Chinese Short Play Festival and hoped that all directors would actively participate and conduct appropriate processing and popularization of science based on the materials.
Yu Jing scolded him rudely: "Then why are you looking for me?"
The old man handed him a document about the activities and asked him after a long pause: "Do you want to participate? Directors who have debuted for less than a year are included in the scope of participation."
Yu Jing looked at it carefully and frowned: "Old man Ji, please stop joking. To put it bluntly, my participation is purely to bully others. As a veteran of the Film and Television Association, you should understand that it is better for a hundred flowers to bloom than for one to stand alone."
Ji Chengye sighed: "I'm afraid if I mess it up, then the new director will only be filming different things."
It’s not like no one imitated Yu Jing in the past and wanted to become famous through Chinese movies. Unfortunately, the things they produced were useless at all.
The Film and Television Association holds events with great fanfare, but in the end no one can win. That would be ridiculous.
"Don't worry, this year's graduation season is here. There are many good talents in Yaoguang's directing department. They will definitely not miss this event." Yu Jing rarely comforted him.
The old man made a move and looked at Yu Jing strangely: "Are you hallucinating because of the heat?"
The two of them started to pinch each other when they met, but Yu Jing actually comforted him!
Yu Jing's face was expressionless: "You, old fool, heard it wrong."
Ji Chengye glared at him and knocked on the table: "Since you don't want to participate, then you will be the judge."
Although this kid Yu Jing talks irritatingly and always criticizes him, but his level is here, he is more vicious than many gold medal directors.
Moreover, he is also well-known on the Internet. If the Film and Television Association wants to gain attention from the outside world, it is inevitable to use him for publicity.
Yu Jing naturally thought of the key, but he didn't care: "The hosting method will be the same as before, shoot and upload, and then the judges will score?"
Ji Chengye nodded, as they always do.
Yu Jing disliked it: "Old-fashioned, you have to understand that the audience is not very interested in the new director. Why should they waste time watching a short play of unknown quality?"
Ji Chengye's movements froze, because he couldn't refute Yu Jing's words, could he just let it go?
No matter how much I think about it, I won’t be reconciled!
The old man was so anxious that he walked around the office. When he saw Yu Jing sitting there, he suddenly realized: "Do you have any idea?"
Yes, yes.
Variety shows can be played to resemble ancient survival, and documentaries can be filmed to record life. There is nothing he can't do.
Yu Jing blinked and said, "What did you say?"
Ji Chengye's old face was bruised and bruised from holding back, and he squeezed out a sentence through his teeth: "Please help me think of a solution."
Yu Jing was delighted: "Since the audience doesn't know the new director, let's make a variety show to let them know about it. It can just happen to film their filming process."
