Chapter 864: 864 There is no such thing as a free lunch
The role was cancelled?
These few short words instantly weighed on Wu Yushan's head like a thunderbolt.
My entire brain suddenly went blank.
I just received the notice to play the role of a maid yesterday.
I was told today that my role was cancelled?
And it happened at this critical moment when they had already changed into their costumes and were about to start filming?
this
If it weren't for the assistant director of the crew who had no smile on his face.
Wu Yushan must have thought that this was a joke!
"Deputy Director Lu, what did you say?"
Wu Yushan, who had a graceful figure and could not even look like a beautiful lady in her ancient maid's costume, said in a trembling voice in disbelief.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying? Your role has been cancelled, take off your costume and get out!" The assistant director waved his hand impatiently.
"Why? Give me a reason, I need an explanation!"
Even though I know very well that a character like me has no human rights in the crew.
But at this moment, her mind had gone blank. It could even be said that Wu Yushan was completely unable to accept the disparity between heaven and hell, and she asked tremblingly.
"You need an explanation? Are you qualified for an extra like you?" the assistant director said coldly, "Get out of here now, don't waste our time!
That's all.
He simply waved and called a female staff member over.
"Deputy Director Lu!
"Go, quickly get her to change out of her costume and get her out of here! Someone has already taken her role!"
It seems like he doesn't want to waste time here anymore.
After saying this, Deputy Director Lu quickly turned around and left.
The female staff member stood there in a daze for a short while.
He couldn't help but shook his head again.
He looked at Wu Yushan and said.
"I remember your name is Xiao Wu, I know you must be unwilling to accept it, but don't be hard on yourself, just change out of your crew costumes and leave!
"Sister Wang, why? I just want to know why! The role was given to me yesterday. I even went back home to practice my lines, body language and facial expressions all night. Why did you cancel my role today? Isn't this bullying?"
Even though I have never been a fragile person.
But at this moment, Wu Yushan, who felt extremely aggrieved, still had tears in her eyes.
"Why!
With a sigh, the female staff member looked around and then said with a complicated expression, "If I remember correctly, you were a minor role in our crew before, and you should have been in Hengdian for a while, right? So don't you know how difficult it is for a minor role to be promoted to a formal role with certain lines and scenes? Even that kind of role, although insignificant, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is enough to make countless non-connected people fight for it!"
Wu Yushan was completely stunned when she heard this.
It was as if he was running to send the Buddha to the west.
The female staff member continued, "So, being a lucky person is not that easy. Perhaps it should be said that few lucky people don't have to pay a price! You look pretty good. If I'm not mistaken, after you got the role notification, someone contacted you, right?
Has anyone contacted you?
Wu Yushan's mind, which had been completely blank just now, started to work rapidly. Soon, her memories froze.
After I received the role notification, someone did contact me.
Moreover, the other party is the agent of the leading male actor in the crew.
After she returned to her residence last night, the other party sent her a WeChat message.
There is no excessive content.
I just sent the hotel location and the four numbers [2319].
Apart from this, there is nothing else.
When I saw the WeChat message, I thought it was sent to the wrong person, and I was immersed in rehearsing the role in the script at that time.
So Wu Yushan didn't think much about it and simply ignored it.
However, it is not difficult to understand why she would choose to ignore it without thinking too much.
After all, she had no connection with the idol-style male lead who is now considered the top star in the entertainment industry, and the other party's agent only added her WeChat yesterday. Even when he added her WeChat at that time, he didn't say much. He just smiled and said, "I am Wu Yifan's agent, can you add WeChat?" Although she was stunned at the time, she still took the initiative to smile and gave her the WeChat QR code.
However, the communication between them is basically limited to this.
Not long after that, I received a notice to play the role of a maid.
Could it be that...I got the role in the crew through that agent?
Just when Wu Yushan's thoughts were interrupted and she wanted to speak.
The female staff member suddenly took the lead and said, "You don't need to tell me anything. I don't want to know things that have nothing to do with me. In short, you just need to know the situation in your heart. Always remember one sentence: there is no such thing as a free lunch, especially in the industry you are in now! Okay, change your clothes and leave the crew quickly. No matter how unwilling you are, you can't change anything. After all, no one will care about a small supporting role!"
Wu Yushan clenched her teeth tightly.
Finally, she had to nod with tears in her eyes and walked towards the changing room.
Because things have come to this, just as the other party said.
No matter how unwilling they are, no one will care about a small supporting role!
When Wu Yushan, who was feeling depressed and wanted to find a place to cry, changed out of her crew costume and left the dressing room.
The silent phone in my pocket started to vibrate violently!
I took it out and saw the words "Brother Chen" on the note!
In an instant.
Wu Yushan's delicate body trembled involuntarily.
Just yesterday, I talked endlessly to the other party about my ideals and pursuits, and also said that I had received a role.
But the funny thing is that the role was cancelled before the 24 hours were up...
How should I face Ye Chen after I have already boasted about this? It would be fine if the other party didn't mention this.
If asked, how would I answer?
With mixed feelings, just before the call was about to stop vibrating, Wu Yushan finally pressed the answer button.
He forced a smile and said, "Hey, Chen...Brother Chen!
"Shanshan, why did you take so long to answer the phone? Were you busy filming?" Ye Chen's warm smile rang out.
"It's not my turn yet. My phone was placed aside, so I didn't hear it!
As the boast had already been made and she hadn't yet sorted out how to explain it to Ye Chen, Wu Yushan could only grit her teeth and laugh dryly.
"Oh, so you are in the crew in Hengdian now?" Ye Chen asked with a smile.
"Ah, yes, yes, what's the matter, Brother Chen?" Wu Yushan said.
"Nothing, I'm just curious about what kind of drama you are filming, so I wanted to ask!" Ye Chen said calmly.
"It's those costume dramas!" Wu Yushan was a little unconfident.
"What's the name of the play?" Ye Chen asked Zuo again.
"Brother Chen, I... I just played the role of a maid. I won't have too many lines and scenes, so let's not talk about it!" Wu Yushan's heart was beating faster and she couldn't help but panic.
If I count the number of times I have lied over the years, I can count them on one hand, so I can't take it anymore at this moment.
"It's okay, I just want to know more in advance, nothing else, just be bold and speak directly!" Ye Chen asked.
"This, this."
He made up his mind and gritted his teeth.
Even if we know that telling a lie often requires countless lies to cover it up.
But Wu Yushan, who still hadn't figured out how to explain to Ye Chen, could only bite the bullet and tell him about her current crew.
But she would never have thought of it.
Ye Chen has already appeared in Hengdian!
What I was waiting for was for her to tell me which crew she was in, and then go over to give her a surprise.
