You Made Me a Superstar

   Chapter 140 Rejection?

Chinese filmmakers are full of hope for "The Crow"'s trip to Cannes. Many people think that this film should be a big hit in Cannes, and even many drafts have been written in advance. There will be a wave of reports while brushing, and there will be a big heat...

After all, the subject of women’s abduction and trafficking is considered novel in Cannes, and many people will come to see it, and “The Crow” is really well done, with three points, and there is also a Chinese director Huang Jiacheng as a member of the jury. …

   However, when a series of news of the 59th Cannes International Film Festival came back to Huaxia, many people were drenched.

   This kind of coolness is not only for "The Crow", but also for Chinese movies...

   Four shortlisted, if not for an encouragement award, Chinese-language films would have almost been wiped out in Cannes.

   This is undoubtedly a blow to the morale of Chinese films overseas.

   What is even more shocking is that although "The Crow" has a very high reputation overseas, the copyright cannot be sold, which is higher than that of "Warring States", barely reaching the passing line.

The rest of the films are even more bleak. The "Bike Life" directed by Zhu Houqiang from Taiwan Island not only made a free trip to Cannes, but also did not sell the copyright pass line. , negotiated with various films for nearly half a month, and only sold one cheap copyright in Malaysia...

   is all over the street!

Shen Changwei, the director of "Heroes", was mocked by Zhang Qian, a well-known celebrity on Weibo: "I think I'm stunned when I want to win the award, isn't it bad to be a commercial director with peace of mind? I just want to take the film and go to the film festival to be embarrassed. , it's alright now, the face was slapped, this time it's time to give up..."

   mockery is very naked and naked, making people uncomfortable to hear, but it is impossible to refute.

  Shen Changwei's level of director is naturally impossible to end up cursing, but when he walked out of the Cannes venue, he was so depressed that he almost shook his face when he was interviewed by a group of reporters.

certainly…

   This trip to Cannes was not all oppressive and humiliating.

   Not long after Shen Changwei stepped out of Cannes, a big news came from his back.

   Zhou Yang is one of the Asian spokesperson candidates for Louis Vuitton's top ten luxury goods in the world!

The news of    shocked most of China's entertainment companies, and even many people took out their mobile phones in disbelief, sought confirmation from various parties, and even called the official Louis Vuitton side!

  The official reply is "We are in contact and negotiation, and have preliminary intentions."

   After seeing this reply message, the reporters in Huaxia went crazy in an instant!

  ………………

   Zhou Yang is still like a wooden stake.

   He sat on the sofa stupidly, listening to the French girl named Christine chatting with Song Yiyi about a series of terms.

   He felt a little helpless.

   He couldn't understand, let alone what they were talking about. All he knew was that Christine often looked back at him, and then gave herself a satisfied smile.

   Zhou Yang also politely held a very satisfied smile, and then continued like a wooden stake, eating fruit while looking at the light rain outside the window.

   It’s nine o’clock in the evening.

   The time for Huang Jiacheng to invite him for tea is getting closer and closer.

Zhou Yang realizes that learning a foreign language is very important, and it is more important to have a decent agent, otherwise, facing these messy battles by himself, he can only stare blankly. Know.

   "Zhou Yang, Christine asked what do you like to eat on weekdays?"

   "Huh? I don't have anything special to eat..."

   "Christine asked you to say something..."

"banana?"

   "Christine asked you, do you exercise or exercise on weekdays?"

   "Yes, but very little..."

   "Do you like to sing?"

"like!"

   "What kind of girl do you like?"

   "Huh? This is not very clear."

  “…”

   A series of questions made Zhou Yang's brain buzz.

   He felt like he was being interviewed, but it felt like he was checking his hukou.

   At first, the questions were quite normal, but then the wild questions started to become messy, and even asked if he liked pets, whether he was a lover of environmental protection, whether he liked planting trees or flying kites…

   Zhou Yang felt that he couldn't understand it.

Immediately afterwards, Christine stood up again, walked around the coffee table, and then danced some random dances like a big fool. The young women in suits and leather shoes behind Christine sometimes Nodding, sometimes shaking his head, sometimes saying a few words in Christine's ear as if to give some opinion.

  Christine nodded very satisfied...

   "Christine means, can you take off your shirt..." Song Yiyi looked at Zhou Yang.

"Ah, this..." Zhou Yang looked at everyone embarrassedly, especially when he saw Christine's big shining eyes, he was full of discomfort, he felt that this blond little girl seemed to touch it.

   "Take it off, there are no outsiders, here are all women..." Song Yiyi continued to translate Christine's words, but Song Yiyi felt a sour feeling in her heart that she couldn't tell.

  “…”

I don't know why, when Zhou Yang was filming "The Crow", he also took off his upper body, but he didn't think it was a big deal, but in such an atmosphere full of girls, when he took off his shirt, he always felt that his face was a little hot. Hot, embarrassing feeling more intense.

   He thinks what these people look at him like...

Um!

  Yes, it's like looking at a product!

   "Okay." Zhou Yang finally took off his shirt under everyone's attention.

  When Zhou Yang took off, the women in the back row stood up instantly, exclaimed, Christine was even more shocked!

They don't seem to think that Zhou Yang can't be seen in his clothes, and it only gives people the feeling of being thin, but after taking it off, the muscles with clear contours, coupled with the standard inverted triangle body, especially the scars on Zhou Yang's body, give them A raw wildness!

   This is to dress thin and undress to have meat!

   One of the women was very excited and chatted for a long time, and even came over and wanted to touch Zhou Yang!

   Zhou Yang subconsciously took a step back!

   Then put on clothes for the first time…

   He felt uncomfortable being watched like this, a sense of sacrifice.

   The girl giggled at Zhou Yang, but did not come any further, but continued to discuss around Christine.

"They are very satisfied with your figure, appearance, and appearance. The only dissatisfaction is that they think your skin is a little darker. They want you to use more skin care products, as well as the scars on your body. They want you to take care of your skin. In the next year, don't let yourself hurt anymore, and follow their advice to do some scar removal surgery..." Song Yiyi continued to be a blank-faced translator.

   "Oh." Zhou Yang nodded.

"Although I think it's nonsense, but looking at this posture, if there are no surprises, you can really win this endorsement..." Song Yiyi's mind is full of incredible, but the sourness in his voice is even heavier, "In the entertainment industry, look at your face and eat. Really... it's not right, you don't look that handsome, do you? People like Xu Yanzu, Pang Yumin, etc., are more attractive than you... Why do you like you? "

  "..." Zhou Yang was at a loss.

   Don't say Song Yiyi doesn't understand why, he is even more confused.

   The whole person is like a fool.

Afterwards, Christine walked towards Zhou Yang again, opened Zhou Yang's palm, and after seeing the calluses and the marks on her arm, she frowned, seemingly dissatisfied, and murmured some more, which seemed quite pity.

   "What she means is that this is a pair of hands that play the piano, but it was used for work. It's really a waste. She probably means this. She thinks that this is a deduction item on your body..."

  "..." Zhou Yang also frowned, he felt uncomfortable being judged from beginning to end in this way.

   Moreover, when Christine took out the figure comparison table and showed herself the figure they roughly wanted, Zhou Yang felt even more panicked.

   He felt like a plasticine being shaped by someone else's will.

   He was silent.

   "This is what they asked you to..."

   "First, they don't want you to take any more movies like "The Raven" and "The Bottom of the Mine". You need their consent to take a movie, at least during the five years of cooperation, you need their consent..."

"Second, they want you to arrange whatever you wear, the way you walk, and what you say in any public place. At the same time, what we talked about before, including scar removal and skin care, must follow their arrangements... "

   "Third, they want you to leave Huaxing Entertainment, sign an entertainment company designated by them, and follow all the arrangements they instructed to maintain the brand image of Louis Vuitton..."

"fourth…"

   Zhou Yang listened, the more he listened, the less he felt.

   After Song Yiyi finished reading, Zhou Yang glanced at Christine silently. After hesitating for a long time, he finally showed a smile.

   "Sorry...I don't think I'm suitable for the Louis Vuitton contract, sorry for causing trouble to you guys, I still have an appointment, I have to go first..."

   Outside the window.

   The light rain turned into a downpour.

  In the house, it was silent, only on the walls, the medieval antique clock was ticking little by little.

  Song Yiyi looked at Zhou Yang as if she had seen a ghost, not knowing how to translate this sentence for a while.

   Christine and the others stared blankly at Zhou Yang and nodded to them, turning around as if they were about to leave...

  They don't know what happened.

  ………………

   "Zhou Yang, you are crazy, Louis Vuitton, this is a big deal, an endorsement that international superstars can't ask for, you..."

   "The treaty makes me uncomfortable..."

"Where does it hurt?"

   "I feel bound by the rules and regulations. It's very uncomfortable. If I have to listen to other people's arrangements for any movie, what I do, or even what entertainment company I go to, am I not like a marionette?"

"Isn't it like this in the entertainment industry? Besides, the entertainment company is negotiable. They don't necessarily mean to sign an entertainment company, and they are in Huaxing, you don't even have an agent, such a small entertainment company. The company, they don't worry about you at all, so let's do it! You can just sign the brother entertainment behind me, and I will let the company pay for the liquidated damages from Huaxing, is that okay?"

   "I don't sign."

   "Zhou Yang, do you know what you will miss if you really refuse? This is not a list of hundreds of thousands, millions, it is very likely that it is tens of millions..."

   "If you want to exchange freedom for so much money, I would rather not have so much money... Mr. Song, thank you for always translating for me, I owe you a favor."

   "You owe me more than this, Zhou Yang, can we not get sick?"

   "This is my bottom line. I have been unhappy and depressed before, and I don't want to be like a puppet, always unhappy..."

  “…”

   Outside the hotel.

  The rain was dripping.

   Zhou Yang came out of the room, with his head down, his emotions were complicated, and then he walked slowly towards Huang Jiacheng according to the house number.

   Song Yiyi looked at Zhou Yang, this stubborn donkey, both angry and helpless.

   She felt that this guy couldn't get out of the dead end, and it was painful.

  When she came to her room, she saw Zhou Yang stopped.

   "Zhou Yang, I think you'd better think about it."

   "Well, I know, Mr. Song, you should go to bed earlier."

   "Aren't you going to come in and sit?"

   "No, Director Huang has something to do with me, I might be late..."

  …………

in the room.

  Christian was smoking a cigar.

  He who just won the Palme d'Or for "April on Earth" was not immersed in the excitement of the honor, but watched the script silently.

  Huang Jiacheng sat next to him, looking at the time on his watch from time to time, his face was a little unsightly.

   Zhou Yang was late.

   And this is half an hour late, it is really speechless.

   However, Christian didn't seem anxious, put down his cigar after reading the script, and poured himself a glass of red wine slightly.

"Good actors are always slow. Although the role of Doctor Cannibal is a supporting role, it is too important in this film. I have been preparing for this film for five years, and I have waited for five years and have not been able to find a suitable candidate. I am used to it…"

   Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock at the door.

   "Xiao Zhou, you, your sense of time is a bit poor... Come in quickly..."

   "Sorry, I was delayed just now because of things."

"What's up?"

   "Someone from Louis Vuitton is looking for me..."

   "You are really invited as rumored..." Huang Jiacheng was shocked.

"Um."

   "Agreed?"

   "I refused, the Louis Vuitton contract was not for me."

   "What did you say? You said it again, you refused?"

"Um…"

  “…”

   When Huang Jiacheng saw Zhou Yang's serious nodding, he suddenly took a deep breath.

Just at this time…

   "Good rejection!" Not far away, Christian, who knew a little Chinese, came over in surprise. His originally calm eyes seemed to be aware of something, but suddenly became hot!
