Chapter 483: Many People Thought He Had Already Won Best Actor

~20 min read 3,896 words

For a star of Lu Yan He's level, going out is quite a troublesome thing.

Private itineraries are secondary; the main thing is work matters.

This circle values face and also values appearance.

If you only take one assistant to the set, that is low-key and peace of mind for filming. If you only take one assistant to attend events, especially large-scale events, then you are "shabby."

These words were not said by someone; they are the consensus of the industry.

Besides that, there is the issue of safety.

At the airport, how many media are waiting, how many fans are waiting, just to wait for you to appear, swarm up, see you with their own eyes, and then when they see you, their emotions get out of control, excited, excited. This is still relatively positive.

There are also some malicious black fans, or passersby who join in the fun, intentionally making the scene chaotic. At this time, two assistants absolutely cannot control the situation.

Foreign countries are not as safe as China.

Why do so many high-net-worth stars have several bodyguards following them wherever they go, including going to buy a cup of coffee, with several bodyguards on standby around them, looking after the stars?

Because it is to prevent robbery, and even kidnapping.

In this day and age, kidnapping has not disappeared.

Lu Yan He has been acting domestically all along. Now, the route Chen Ziyan designed for him is a global superstar, and he must go overseas to act, and always relying on those service companies is far from enough.

That's why it is said that Lu Yan He needs a powerful brokerage company.

A brokerage company that has resources and connections in business, logistics services, and even the underworld, and can provide Lu Yan He with all-round services.

In this regard, domestic brokerage companies are indeed not as professional as those global brokerage companies abroad.

They are companies that have been doing it for decades, accumulating a large amount of resources, and have laid out networks in countries around the world.

And domestically, there are basically no brokerage companies that purely do artist brokerage. Basically, film and television business and artist brokerage business are crossed and done together.

The development stage is quite far apart.

Chen Ziyan added: "In addition, I am preparing to arrange Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang into your team."

Hearing these two unfamiliar names, Lu Yan He showed a look of doubt.

Chen Ziyan said: "They are both high-achieving students from prestigious universities that I and Sister Qingzhen brought up in this company. They have high quality in all aspects, especially their foreign language level is also very high. We want to cultivate them so that they can be responsible for the company's overseas affairs in the future."

Lu Yan He suddenly realized.

"They worked under our hands for a year before. The company's management, they should have learned what they should learn, and seen what they should see. Now it is time to contact the artist's business at the front line." Chen Ziyan said, "Because we want to do overseas business in the future, and only you have such an opportunity to let them practice, so we can only put them in your team."

Lu Yan He nodded.

"Okay, no problem, this way my team has expanded." Lu Yan He said.

Chen Ziyan said: "Hmm, their salary and travel expenses, our company will be responsible, it won't go through your team's account, although I know you don't mind, but I still have to tell you clearly."

"Hmm." Lu Yan He nodded, "You arrange it."

"Now our company is very short of agents who can stand alone, all are assistants." Chen Ziyan said, "Doing this kind of high-end brokerage service, digging those mature agents from outside is useless, it doesn't match our needs, so we can only cultivate them ourselves. So, I am preparing to cultivate people through these steps in the future: first be an assistant by our side, understand our positioning comprehensively from the perspective of company management, then go to your artist's team to learn specific business, accumulate experience, and then start to practice on your own."

Lu Yan He: "It sounds like it takes a long time to cultivate a person."

"Yes." Chen Ziyan nodded, "But if you want to truly cultivate a qualified, high-end agent who can stand alone, such practice is indispensable."

Lu Yan He asked: "Sister Ziyan, you can also consider finding those young people who have just entered the industry and want to be agents overseas, and sign them to our company. They can also do things for our overseas business."

Chen Ziyan: "We don't have overseas resources to cultivate them at this stage. Let Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang practice by your side first, and then let them develop. Eat rice one bite at a time. We haven't even taken a step out yet, so don't think about such long-term things."

"Also." Lu Yan He nodded, "Then alright."

Two more people suddenly appeared in the team. Zou Dong is okay. Anyway, he is a bodyguard and mainly responsible for security, so it has nothing to do with him if there are a few more people.

Wang Biao, who served as Lu Yan He's assistant, suddenly had a sense of crisis.

No one had told him what Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang were here for, and he didn't know where these two people came from, nor did he know Chen Ziyan's arrangement for them. His first reaction was that these two people were his competitors.

Because Chen Ziyan didn't arrange any specific positions for them, just let these two people join the team directly.

Moreover, Wang Biao himself was young, not only five or six years younger than them, but these two were also high-achieving students from prestigious universities.

Wang Biao couldn't help but complain, thinking, these two people have such high academic qualifications, what are they doing as assistants.

Of course, Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang themselves were also a bit depressed.

In this regard, Chen Ziyan hid it from Wang Biao, and also hid it from Wang Qingqing and Song Jiang, and did not tell them her considerations. Therefore, Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang also had a big gap, from a high-achieving student similar to a "management trainee," suddenly becoming Lu Yan He's assistant.

Although that is Lu Yan He.

Lu Yan He knows what kind of plan Chen Ziyan is making. Don't say anything first, see their reactions first, and grind their temper. When Lu Yan He first arrived under Chen Ziyan, he was also ground by Chen Ziyan like this. Chen Ziyan is not the kind of person who will break things down and tell you at the beginning. She will let you experience it yourself, feel it yourself, understand it yourself, and then give you a point.

Therefore, Lu Yan He did not give them any explanation.

As for how to arrange the division of labor among the three, Lu Yan He went to ask Chen Ziyan.

Chen Ziyan: "Put it for two days first, see what they will do themselves, and let me observe each of their personalities."

A person's personality cannot be seen by what he did when the wind was smooth, but by what he presented when it was not so smooth.

And on the very first day, Wang Biao had some friction with Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang.

On this day, Lu Yan He was going to record the interview for the Feihong Award nominees.

Lu Yan He also brought a five-person team to work for the first time. He was not familiar with Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang at all, so Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang also had an excessive respect for him.

Lu Yan He waved his hand and said twice that they could be casual, but they didn't change at all.

Lu Yan He just let it go for now and didn't care about it. Anyway, after a long time, they will naturally know what kind of person he is.

However, Wang Biao seemed to be unable to see them being so respectful to Lu Yan He, and said with slanted eyes: "You look like this, let others see it, and think that Little Brother Lu has a big shelf, and the people in his team are in such a posture in front of him."

Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang's cheeks turned red at the same time.

Wang Biao said: "Little Brother Lu never cares about these. As long as you have done your work well, there is no need to make other aspects like superiors and subordinates, and it is not the relationship between superiors and subordinates in the company."

Wang Biao's sarcasm was a completely undisguised attack.

Lu Yan He heard Wang Biao say this, and subconsciously wanted to dissuade him, telling him not to be so mean.

But after thinking about it, Sister Ziyan wanted to take the opportunity to observe their personalities. In this situation, it is the best time to observe.

He should not intervene in it at this time.

Lu Yan He thought so, and didn't care about anything.

Wang Biao's words made Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang's faces red and green, it is estimated that they were embarrassed.

Lu Yan He pretended not to hear, wearing headphones, looking out the window.

When he arrived at the place, he took off his headphones and got out of the car.

Wang Biao carried his bag and followed behind Lu Yan He's left side, and Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang could only follow behind.

Interviews are actually very simple things.

This time, the person in charge of the Feihong Award nominee interview is Peng Zhixing.

Lu Yan He's old friend.

These interview contents will also appear in Peng Zhixing's interview program in a special edition.

Because it is Peng Zhixing, Lu Yan He is very relaxed, and didn't even look at the interview outline.

As soon as Lu Yan He met Peng Zhixing, he told him about this.

"You didn't look at the outline?" Peng Zhixing was very surprised.

"No, fully trust you." Lu Yan He smiled, "Ask whatever you want."

Peng Zhixing: "Now my pressure is big."

Lu Yan He: "What is your pressure big? You have to interview so many people. Interviewing me shouldn't be the time when your pressure is the smallest?"

"That's true, there are too many big guys nominated for this Feihong Award." Peng Zhixing said, "My head is big."

"You have such ability, the organizer will invite you."

Peng Zhixing is certainly not one of the top hosts now.

However, because of the program "Young Days," Peng Zhixing's popularity has risen in recent years, and his hosting and interview skills have also improved very quickly. Almost all large-scale activities of Aurora Video are hosted by him, and "Jump Up" self-media also has a fixed interview program that invites him to be the interviewer. A large amount of practical experience has been transformed into his own ability and charm, so he has also entered the vision of mainstream awards like the Feihong Award.

In general, this kind of mainstream award invites relatively senior and famous hosts to be responsible for the nominee interview column.

Lu Yan He hugged Peng Zhixing and said: "I haven't washed my face yet, let me go and tidy up first."

Peng Zhixing nodded and said: "Don't rush, you go and tidy up first."

Lu Yan He went to his dressing room.

The makeup artist was already waiting for him.

"Yan He, hello."

Lu Yan He greeted her, "Please trouble you today."

After seeing this scene, Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang both showed surprise.

Obviously, in their cognition, a star of Lu Yan He's level would not be so polite to say "Please trouble you today" to a makeup artist.

Wang Biao guessed what they were thinking when he saw their appearance.

Those thoughts, Wang Biao also had before.

At this moment, Wang Biao had a psychological pleasure of "So what if you are high-achieving students from prestigious universities? Aren't you still white papers without experience."

For a moment, Wang Biao's hostility towards them was reduced by a few points.

Lu Yan He's interview with Peng Zhixing lasted for almost an hour.

Acquaintance interviews are like this, basically no defense, and there are many things to talk about.

He and Peng Zhixing not only have many intersections in "Young Days," but outside of this program, Lu Yan He and Peng Zhixing also have many private friendships.

This also allows Peng Zhixing to ask many questions that other hosts cannot ask.

For example, Peng Zhixing would ask: "This time nominated for the Feihong Award, who do you think is your main competitor?"

Such questions, if others ask, Lu Yan He will definitely not answer positively.

Because it is Peng Zhixing, Lu Yan He dares to say.

"Of course it is my senior brother, Shang Yongzhou."

Peng Zhixing will immediately ask at this time: "Is it because you think other people's performance is not as good as yours?"

A ladder is given, and Lu Yan He can immediately explain it more clearly.

"No, of course not. Other nominees are also very powerful. It's just that my senior brother and I are both nominated for the film 'Road to Glory.' The judges will compare us more or less." Lu Yan He said, "And, to tell the truth, the competition this year is too big. If it were other years, I might feel that my confidence in winning the award would be much greater. This time, when I saw the nomination list, I had a feeling that no matter who wins, you can't pick too many thorns. No matter who wins the award, there is a reason to win the award."

Such words, said in Peng Zhixing's interview, are purely for Peng Zhixing's face.

Peng Zhixing nodded, "The competition is indeed big this year, many people say so. Then will you feel a pity?"

"No." Lu Yan He shook his head with a smile, "This is also quite good. Compared to winning an award alone, I quite like to see such a big melee situation. I am also very curious, who will be the winner this year."

"If the winner is not you, will you really not complain that the judges didn't choose you?"

"Hmm—" Lu Yan He pondered, thinking, "I say I won't, do you believe it?"

"If someone else said it, I wouldn't believe it. Since you said it, I believe it." Peng Zhixing laughed, "For you, this is just an award. Do you know how exaggerated it is? Everyone is very surprised that you haven't won a Best Actor award in the three major domestic awards so far. Many people thought that you must have already won it."

"I only won two Best Supporting Actor awards, right? Both were won by 'Sanshan'."

"That's right, so, this is your most terrible place, I am your friend and I have to say so." Peng Zhixing shook his head and sighed, "Never won Best Actor, but everyone thinks you have won it. This is the recognition of the whole industry for you."

Lu Yan He waved his hand with a smile and said busily: "Don't put such a high hat on me, I dare not wear it."

"Just in time for such an opportunity, I actually have a few more questions I want to ask you. You can choose to answer or not to answer. For the questions you don't want to answer, I will cut them out later and they won't appear in the feature film." Peng Zhixing said.

Lu Yan He nodded, "It doesn't matter, I said, Brother Zhixing, you can ask whatever you want, I will answer."

Peng Zhixing said: "I noticed that in the last two years, almost every top international film festival has your works nominated, and you have also won some awards, including the hot broadcast of 'Friends,' 'Seventeen Layers,' and 'River of Silence' on streaming media, making many people in various Asian countries like you and become your drama fans. You have also held fan activities in many countries such as Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, etc. Will your work focus in the future continue to be mainly on filming domestic film and television dramas, or will you... take the international route?"

This is the first time Lu Yan He has been asked such a question.

Because the film "The Mist" has not been made public, including some cooperation is still under negotiation and has not been exposed to the outside world, so although many media know that Lu Yan He is quite famous internationally now, they have not thought that he will take the international route. After all, so far, the film and television dramas he has filmed are all Chinese.

Lu Yan He was surprised by Peng Zhixing's keenness, and also felt that this was a good opportunity.

Compared to being questioned by some people later, it is also a good opportunity to clarify here.

"I will definitely focus on filming film and television dramas in China, but the international route you mentioned, I will also take." Lu Yan He said with a smile, "I still hope that I have the ability to take Chinese film and television dramas overseas, so that more viewers around the world can know me and know Chinese film and television dramas. However, sometimes we must also admit one thing: if we don't follow other people's rules first, integrate into other people's circles, and be known by them, then they may not be willing to give us the opportunity to know them."

Peng Zhixing nodded.

"Just like the Korean TVN TV station wants to adapt 'Friends' and 'Rouge,' I think it is a very good thing." Lu Yan He said, "The film and television dramas produced in China can be adapted into versions of another country and language. This is both recognition of the original version and an opportunity for more people to see this story. I very much welcome film and television production parties from other countries to come and negotiate adaptation matters with us, whether it is film and television dramas or stage plays, or some other form."

Peng Zhixing said: "There are indeed few domestic film and television dramas adapted into other versions."

"There will be more and more in the future. Many film and television dramas that came out this year made me like them very much, and many stories are also suitable for adaptation into other versions." Lu Yan He said, "Including 'The Home I Haven't Returned to for a Long Time,' I believe this film will definitely be favored by foreign film companies."

Peng Zhixing nodded and asked: "Yan He, will you act in film and television dramas of other countries in the future?"

"If there is a good opportunity, of course I will. To tell you the truth, I want to be an actor known by the whole world." Lu Yan He said, "If I only act in Chinese film and television dramas, there may be many people who never watch Chinese film and television dramas, so there is no way to achieve this goal. Of course, putting aside this utilitarian goal, as an actor, if I encounter a good story, a good character, and it moves me, how could I refuse? Right?"

Lu Yan He said this, and suddenly smiled.

"Actually, I have already signed a film with an American film company. I hope it will meet everyone as soon as possible."

Peng Zhixing showed a look of surprise.

"Ah? Has this film been filmed?"

"Filming next year." Lu Yan He said, "I have to finish filming 'Love Letter' first."

Peng Zhixing nodded.

"Is it convenient to reveal more details?"

"Keep it secret for now." Lu Yan He said, "Anyway, if everyone is interested, you can look forward to it. It is what I just said, a character I have never acted before and also very moving. I believe that if it is an audience who has been paying attention to me, seeing this character, they should be brightened. He is really very different from the characters I acted before."

Peng Zhixing: "Then I will look forward to it well!"

After the interview, Peng Zhixing took off the microphone and confirmed with Lu Yan He: "Yan He, about the part where you signed an American film, are you sure it can be put into the feature film?"

Lu Yan He nodded and said: "Yes, as long as there is no news related to which specific film it is, it's fine."

Peng Zhixing said: "You really gave me huge face. Such explosive news was brought to my program to say."

"Who let the interviewer today be you? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't say it, afraid they would mess up the cut."

Peng Zhixing: "Do you have any other work arrangements later? I only have one interview object today, and the work is finished. If there is nothing, let's have a drink together."

Lu Yan He nodded.

On the side, Wang Biao told Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang in a calm manner: "Little Brother Lu is this kind of personality. If he recognizes someone, he will be good to people. He is a very warm person. You can keep this in mind well. Don't treat him as a big star with a big shelf."

Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang listened to Wang Biao, who was five or six years younger than them, and were also embarrassed for a while, not knowing what to say.

Wan Qingqing hesitated for a moment, and still took the initiative to say: "Okay, thank you, thank you for the advice."

Wang Biao was thanked by Wan Qingqing, and that "pointing" energy disappeared embarrassingly.

He said: "What advice, I just stayed by Little Brother Lu's side for a long time, so I know him better than you. But don't look at him as being in full swing now, walking everywhere, everyone blowing him and holding him, there are not a few people who want to harm him, so we must pay special attention when we are by his side, don't cause trouble for him."

Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang nodded.

Wang Biao sighed.

"When I first started being an assistant for Little Brother Lu, I also did some things that caused trouble for him. He didn't scold me, and silently wiped my butt. I felt so uncomfortable at that time, I would rather he scold me. So, in order not to make yourself so uncomfortable, you should hurry up and change your style, don't be so respectful again. You are like this, Little Brother Lu is uncomfortable, and others will misunderstand Little Brother Lu's style."

Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang nodded sincerely this time, and responded that it was okay.

Zou Dong listened to the conversation of the three of them on the side, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

That's right, Wang Biao has also stayed by Lu Yan He's side for quite a long time.

The teenager who was reckless and would open his mouth to spray people before has now slowly become steady.

Pointing at others, he also has a set of sets. ===== CHAPTER 484 =====
