Chapter 942 Dinner (Part 1)
The grand restaurant and the sophisticated crowds coming and going suddenly dragged Qin Jue back to the Golden Plum Awards ceremony in April. She pressed her hat, resisted the urge to hide her presence, and followed Hu Changjian to the upper floors.
Costume designer Zhan Xin completed the task well. Qin Jue's clothes were not so formal, and the main focus was on fashion and refreshing. Because the main color was black, it did not steal the limelight. The most important thing was that the price was appropriate, just hovering between "too expensive to show off wealth" and "down-to-earth". People who knew the goods could recognize that she was wearing light luxury brands all over her body, and people would not complain that she was "not presentable".
Her hairstyle was done by Shen Zhenzhen, and the length was trimmed, leaving a lot of room for the makeup teacher of the crew to adjust according to the role. Song Zhihan focused on the eye makeup, making her look sharp when wearing a hat and mask, and neutralized when showing her full face. She had more characteristics of "martial arts" and "handsome man" to avoid the same style as the young and handsome Luo Ling.
Qin Jue dressed up from head to toe and went into the box to greet people. Perhaps because there was also a movie queen Tang Nuo playing a role in the game, the crew did not neglect her. As an actor with the same role, she was assigned to the main table. She shook hands with the director and producer and said a few polite words.
There are also ways to arrive at the time. Luo Ling appeared a few minutes after Qin Jue sat down.
After all, he is the top star in Longguo. His face is very good. His facial contours are clear, his nose is high, his lips are plump, his eyebrows are upturned, but his eyes are drooping. He almost has the labels of "sweet", "good", and "handsome" printed on his face. He is a very popular little milk dog type nowadays.
Luo Ling's style is similar to the feeling he gives people. As soon as he entered the door, he hurriedly took off his mask and greeted with a smile. He was very gentle and really had no airs.
Qin Jue suddenly remembered the common sense in the circle that Jiang Shuming said during a casual chat, saying that the audience always wonders why this star has no good works, but the commercial cooperation is booming? In fact, in addition to the background of the background, most of it has to do with the attitude of the star himself and the team.
It is tiring for brands to work with artists who are too busy and pretentious, and who are always late and sullen. If they can replace them next time, they will definitely replace them with someone who is more talkative. This is why some stars whose works are obviously bad have good resources. Good personalities and good relationships can be popular everywhere, including in the entertainment industry.
"Hello, Director Kong, please give me more advice... Hey, hey, screenwriter Li, thanks for your care last time..."
Luo Ling smiled obediently and politely, using the honorific title of "superior" for those with professional positions and the general title of "teacher" for those without professional positions. He did not deliberately win over or ignore them. In a blink of an eye, he also stretched out his hand in front of Qin Jue and said with a smile, "Hello, Teacher Qin".
Qin Jue shook hands with him with a smile, and the corners of his mouth intentionally raised up on the basis of the smile. Luo Ling was stunned and startled, and unconsciously tightened his hand around hers. He quickly came back to his senses, restrained the corners of his lips a little, and returned to the "interpersonal business smile" that was impeccable just now.
He continued to greet the guests, and after everyone at the table had greeted them, he could not help but turn his head to look at Qin Jue, with surprise and warmth in his eyes.
Qin Jue smiled and nodded, and Luo Ling in his eyes gradually turned into a Shiba Inu.
She was also a little surprised just now, because Luo Ling's smile became obviously sincere when he spoke to her, which was different from the superficial smile that could be regarded as professionalism before. Although the difference between the two was very subtle, this micro-expression was conspicuous enough for Qin Jue, who liked to pick up the details of expressions.
In other words, Luo Ling's words "Hello, Teacher Qin, I am very happy to work with you" were not false.
So Qin Jue gave a response, and reminded him to pay attention to this temperature difference. "Different treatment" can be big or small, but if you meet a sensitive person, it will always be a bit troublesome.
Luo Ling is indeed trained in the circle, and his eyesight is strong enough to observe words and expressions, and he reacted immediately.
The main characters have arrived, and the dinner table is much more lively. Director Kong lit a cigarette and chatted with Luo Ling. The executive director next to him made a joke. Qin Jue's eyes lingered on the cigarettes, and Zhao Shujing's face was in his mind.
Someone next to him was flattering and handed over a cigarette box. When he raised his eyes, he met a look of temptation. The meaning was nothing more than that matter, to see if Qin Jue would "give this face." Qin Jue smiled, took out a box of pokcy like a magic trick, and immediately turned the tables and said with a smile:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang, I quit for a long time, and now my taste is a bit childish. Don't think I'm childish, how about you try one too?"
Wang Chuanfeng, who handed over the cigarette, felt that he was hit by a clever Tai Chi. Qin Jue refused gently and gave him a way out, so he waved his hand to stop teasing her and said, "Old Wang, I'm not young anymore, you should eat it yourself" to pass the matter over.
There was a commotion outside, and a few voices came from the table near the door, "Hey, Sister Jingyu is here!" A tall, thin, exquisite beauty wearing a long dress appeared at the door, smiling and nodding her chin to the surroundings, and walked towards the main table slowly.
"Sister Yuyu, long time no see." Luo Ling greeted with a smile.
"Hahahaha, our Jingyu's temperament is really amazing." Director Kong laughed.
Li Jingyu pretended to be angry and waved her hand: "Director Kong always makes fun of me. During the audition, you said I was too weak and couldn't play Jiang Rong."
"So this shows that you are bold to break through!" Director Kong took over this and "bickered" with Li Jingyu.
Qin Jue acted as a background board peacefully, thinking that it was true. It was said that the Internet had been arguing over the casting of the heroine Jiang Rong. She didn't know much about the quarrels between female stars, but she only remembered that the book fans were more heartbroken.
When I saw her today, Li Jingyu was clearly going for the route of a literary and cold fairy. She has a light complexion, and her facial features are relatively sparse. The distance between her eyes is relatively large, and her eyebrows and eyes are far apart. It's not that she is not beautiful, but she is too "empty" and not very aggressive. Shooting for magazines may give her a more ethereal and ethereal sense of high-end, but in "Heart and Shadow Link", she is really not suitable to play the role of a strong and powerful sister Jiang Rong.
However, it doesn't matter if the facial features, temperament and role don't fit. Makeup and acting can save it. This is the case when Qin Jue played "Empty Monument", and the effect presented is quite good.
The main table has been chatting for a long time. The dishes have been officially served and there is still one empty seat. It is self-evident who is missing. The producer looked a little ugly. He used the excuse of going to the bathroom to make several phone calls. After returning, although he laughed and criticized Tang Nuo's agent for not being good, everyone knew who he was really targeting.
Li Jingyu smiled, said a few words of comfort softly, and the degree of the corners of her mouth became more and more proud.
In this circle, competition is almost natural. There are only a few actresses in a crew. The less Tang Nuo is valued, the more she is valued. Of course, she will be happy.
After a long while, some noise came from far away. Qin Jue raised her eyelids slightly, and her heart suddenly tightened, making her sure that the person who came was really what she thought in her heart - the mysterious soul attraction was more real than any proof.
The water cup in his palm made a slight "click" sound, and Qin Jue, who realized that his strength had increased, immediately let it go.
Tang Nuo appeared in front of her through the layers of people.
