Chapter 134: Beauty

Boss Lu responded without changing his face, just scanning this hair-loving enthusiast from head to toe.

Greatly disappointed!

The face before plastic surgery is also too unappetizing.

The figure is also far from being rich and developed.

Compared to Boss Lu's previous bed partners, it is simply impossible to go down...

"Xiao Lu, wait in the conference room for a while, let's audition together later."

"Director~ I'm a bit tired, can I sit in your office for a while!"

Boss Lu was a bit speechless. How confident are you to be flirting here.

"This, Xiao Lu, go over first."

Ugly reject! Get out!

Li Xiaolu looked unhappy, not knowing where it went wrong. Theoretically, with her conditions plus the greeting made in advance.

Meeting him, flirting with him, and flirting in the office for a few words, letting him slowly surrender under the pomegranate skirt is the standard process, right?

Where is the problem?

Sun Wenwen knocked on the door: "Director Lu, Yao Chen is here."

"What? Oh oh, please come in."

Damn it, why are these goods in the afternoon, one doing hair, one flower of evil.

It's fine if the character is bad, the key is that it looks so...

He didn't lift his head and flipped through the registration form in his hand.

Keep flipping! Keep flipping!

"Yu Feihong? Zhou Xun, Jiang Qinqin, Li Bingbing, Jia Jingwen, Gao Yuanyuan."

It has to be this group of actresses who are of good quality, and they can finally wash their eyes.

Zhou Xun and Jiang Qinqin were both called by himself to audition for the mother role. The makeup can be adjusted slightly to perform the effect of thirty years old.

I thought that Sister Jiang, who had been out of touch for a long time, would refuse, but I didn't expect to agree happily this time.

Yu Feihong signed up by herself, and didn't greet anyone.

From the perspective of age, she is actually the best candidate for the middle-aged mother.

Boss Lu previously invited Yu Nan and Yan Bingyan, two powerful actors, but the schedule was not very suitable.

The most intense competition is the daughter role.

Fan Bingbing, Li Xiaolu, Jia Jingwen, Gao Yuanyuan are all competitors.

It's just a pity that the brave enjoy the world first. Bingbing has sold herself to Boss Lu from soul to body.

Outside the audition room, all the actresses were in place. Everyone greeted each other without changing their faces, and quietly looked at the script in their hands.

Li Bingbing and Fan Bingbing sat together, the former auditioning for the mother role.

"Bingbing, what do you think of Director Feng's play?"

Fan Bingbing scolded secretly, but still smiled: "Sister Bingbing, I really can't play that role. I still want to try the female supporting role in Director Lu's play."

"But the scenes of these two roles are quite different. The only outstanding female character in *Cell Phone* is Wu Yue, which is equivalent to the heroine!"

Li Bingbing tirelessly sold the role to potential competitors. There are her own purposes here, and there are also instructions from Yanda Huayi senior management.

Two big heroines in an agency, how to divide the scenes?

Still have to let these two take different routes so that the company can take more roles in subsequent resource docking.

Li is 8 years older than Fan and entered Yanda Huayi earlier. Since the heroine role in *Young Justice Bao 2* was snatched, she has been guarding against her.

It is hard to say whether Wang Jinhua and Yanda Huayi's two kings forced her to play the role of Wu Yue, whether she was making trouble behind her back.

Originally, she was squeezed to the point of being unable to hold on, but she didn't expect Lu Kuan's invitation to let her breathe.

Who else in the industry can refuse the film contract of the Golden Lion Award-winning director?

As long as Fan Bingbing gets this role, rejecting *Cell Phone* in the same period will definitely get the support of Wang Jinhua and Yanda Huayi, and no one can say anything.

Li Bingbing suddenly thought of the "drum washing machine" name that this Director Lu was edited by Zhuo Wei.

This fox, has she already climbed onto Lu Kuan's bed?

Zhou Xun and Jiang Qinqin sat together, and they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

Zhou Xun released an album after *The Legend of the Condor Heroes*, and starred in *Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress* with Chen Kun and Liu Ye, and there are many film contracts waiting for her later.

Jiang Qinqin played a fallen princess in *King of Kings*, and starred in *Half Life Fate* with Lin Xinru.

"Qinqin, I thought you wouldn't come."

Jiang Qinqin smiled and gestured to the photo of Lu Kuan at the Venice Awards Ceremony on Wenjie's culture wall.

"Xun Ge'er, could you have imagined that he could go this far?"

Zhou Xun also smiled: "At first, I thought he was a little Taoist priest who was pretending to be a god, but I didn't know that it was only a year, and it seemed like a different person."

In fact, she realized it later, and had already vaguely guessed what happened between the two on the night of drunkenness.

Later, the unpleasant conversation at the cold meal could also see some clues.

This is clearly that the concubine has intention, and the man has no intention...

Judging from the results, it should be Lu Kuan who played the irresponsible role.

It was just that a Lu Kuan who was penniless and didn't even have a place to live in Beijing at the beginning, how could he decisively refuse an actress like Jiang Qinqin who had already achieved success?

Zhou Xun felt it was too incredible.

There is only one possibility, that is, Lu Kuan himself never doubted that he would succeed.

With his personality and style, he would never let himself be entangled by these children's love.

Whether it is being a director or a businessman, his purpose is extremely clear, and all behaviors are aimed at profit.

Zhou Xun, who considers herself to have understood this little god, thought so.

"Third, Ms. Zhou Xun."

Jiang Qinqin patted her arm amusedly: "What are you in a daze, it's your turn."

"Oh oh, then I'll go first."

Generally speaking, in a mature film industry system, casting is a process-oriented work and a professional work.

In the mature film and television production chain in later generations, there is an important link born for casting—casting studios.

There are famous ones like cdhome, Haohan Star Plate, Muxingren, etc.

There are also some cultural media companies that operate brokerage businesses at the same time, then generally they will prioritize their own people, such as Yanda Huayi, Xiaoma Benpao in the circle.

And for small crews with lower budgets or film and television production companies that intend to compress costs, it is basically the producer and director screening in their own circle resources.

Find the actors with the highest cost-effectiveness, and accept self-recommendations from some actors and teams.

For Lu Kuan, because of his foresight, all he has to consider is the schedule of the actors he likes, and the audition process is just a formality.

Two roles, a total of more than ten audition actresses, did not end until 8 o'clock in the evening from 1 o'clock in the afternoon.

The results were not announced on the spot, but promised that everyone would give news within three days.

The work arrangements of these famous artists are very tight. Whether this film can be released? How to coordinate the schedule after release are all problems to be considered.

No one has time to be dragged on.

Therefore, the casting hype of the big beard is very criticized. By the time of *Return of the Condor Heroes*, many actresses had declared that they would not act and would not participate in the audition before it was hyped.

Slap in the face!

"Jingwen, why didn't you leave?"

Boss Lu was exhausted after sitting for an afternoon, standing in the corridor smoking, and was suddenly patted on the shoulder from behind.

"Director~ was my performance today okay?"

Boss Lu was hurt by some ugly actresses in the afternoon, fortunately there were actresses like Fan Bingbing and Jia Jingwen who were in their prime to correct the error.

Let's not talk about whether this one is a god-daughter or something, just this sweet dress and voice carry special sexual tension.

Zhao Min, you understand men.

But I, Boss Lu, can't privatize the bus because of

"It's possible, but we'll have to wait a bit longer for the specific results, hehe."

"Don't be discouraged if you aren't chosen. I actually think you could try out for 'Chinese Paladin'; there are quite a few brilliant female characters in it."

Seeing his indifferent attitude, Jia Jingwen had no choice but to turn up the intensity.

She coquettishly pulled on Lu Kuan's arm and acted spoiled: "Oh, Director~ I've acted in too many TV dramas. I still want to do... with you..."

"Do movies, that is~~~"

Boss Lu was shocked; this intensity! She truly lives up to her reputation as a 'Taiwanese sister,' she's got enough kick!

Taking advantage of the fact that Wu Dun wasn't around today, Jia Jingwen pressed closer and closer, almost rubbing Lu Kuan's forearm into her own body.

With the swaying of her body, rubbing against him like that, Boss Lu could almost feel the edge of her rigid bra.

Her two bright-colored lips were dripping with charm, looking at the young director with such lingering affection.

"Hmm... come to my office."

Sorry, Great Protector, the sexual happiness you couldn't give, I, Boss Lu, will give it for you!

The two of them left like a gust of wind.

"Qinqin? What are you looking at?"

"Oh, it's nothing... nothing at all."

"Sister Xun, are you busy tonight? Want to go grab a couple of drinks?"

Jiang Qinqin came back to her senses. She had originally wanted to find Lu Kuan to chat, but she hadn't expected to see this ambiguous scene around the corner.

Thinking about it, it really was a bit ridiculous.

She had indeed taken a liking to Lu Kuan back then. Although the gap in their status was huge at the time, after one heartbreak, she truly wanted to rely on this man's chest to recover.

It was just that her sincere feelings, which she hadn't even expressed yet, were tactfully declined by Lu Kuan.

Back then, she didn't understand why.

Looking back a year later, she could consider herself over it.

Lu Kuan had long known how far he would go and had long known exactly what he was pursuing.

He also long knew that the sincere heart she had just sprouted couldn't be exchanged for anything from him.

Jiang Qinqin asked herself, if it were her, she would probably also have decisively left behind a "clingy" love-struck fool like herself.

Only one room in the Wenjie Culture Company still had its lights on: the Chairman's office.

"Director... mm..."

The young woman suddenly covered her mouth and raised her head, looking for a tissue or a cup.

Boss Lu exhaled a puff of smoke with satisfaction and smiled as he touched the young woman's smooth, pretty face.

"Hehe."

Jia Jingwen suddenly raised her head, her face turning so anxious it was almost burning red.

Boss Lu's refined "hehe" at this moment sounded no different to her ears than an evil "jie-jie-jie!"

After quite a bit of tidying up, the Taiwanese star quickly adjusted her state.

"Director... do I really have to act in 'Chinese Paladin' first? If it's possible..."

Boss Lu understood what she wanted to say.

"Jingwen, there's plenty of time ahead. I'll have someone make a call; you go try out for 'Chinese Paladin' first. I think there will be many opportunities for us to work together in the future."

"Alright, thank you, Director~~~"

After finishing his cigarette, Boss Lu tidied up and went downstairs. A-Fei had been waiting for him at the bottom of the building the whole time.

Jia Jingwen's image and acting skills were not a problem for "Chinese Paladin," and her popularity after "Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slaying Sabre" wasn't low either.

You might make a killing, but I, Boss Lu, never lose!
