Chapter 390 Being let go
Facing Lu Yang's expectant eyes, Shen Lang could only say tactfully: "Director Lu, you see, my schedule is actually quite full!"

When Shen Lang said this, Lu Yang's face fell, and then he showed an expression of "as expected".

Yeah, what is Shen Lang’s status?
He became a top star in the entertainment industry by playing villain roles.

Moreover, he is one of the best screenwriters in Asia and in the world.

There are various small awards, but people are too lazy to participate.

Even the Oscars were so impressive that he was absent.

Looking at myself again, a movie called "Blind Cinema" won two awards from South Korea and the United States, which may be very impressive in the eyes of ordinary people.

But it's not good enough in front of such a big shot.

I thought I was so great because of how polite he was when he first came in.

Facing the frustrated Lu Yang, Shen Lang smiled and said, "Director Lu, since Peng Mo has spoken, and I particularly like your work, how about this, forget about the male lead, and give me a villain, such as the role of Ding Xiu in the script?"

When Lu Yang heard this, he immediately looked up with surprise, and the frustration in his heart was swept away.

Ding Xiu, Ding Xiu. Although the role of Ding Xiu does not have many scenes, as long as Shen Lang is willing to play a role in his movie, the fame of his movie will be incomparable to that of other actors.

He stood up and excitedly shook Shen Lang's hand and said, "Teacher Shen, thank you so much! Thank you so much!"

Shen Lang smiled and said, "I should thank Director Lu for giving me this opportunity. If I wasn't so busy, I really want to play Shen Lian!"

You see, the art of socializing.

Lu Yang felt relieved.

Regardless of whether Shen Lang was telling the truth or not, he had definitely given him enough face.

Lu Yang knew that they were all social people, but just this respect made him feel that Shen Lang was a really good guy.

No wonder he could become a top star in just a few years. It seems that the rumors that Shen Lang’s ex-wife cast a curse on him are true.

Judging from the way he behaved towards others, he was lukewarm before, which must have been due to a curse.

Lin Yuner, that woman, has a hateful heart and despicable behavior! Bah!
After agreeing on the role played by Shen Lang, Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Out of respect for Shen Lang, Lu Yang said, "Teacher Shen, you have a wide network of contacts in the circle. I have no idea about the actors here. Can you give me some advice?"

This problem immediately stumped Shen Lang.

Although he knew a lot of people in the circle, to be honest, he didn't know many people with martial arts skills.

He does know Li Lianjie, but he can't come.

But soon Shen Lang thought of someone.

In front of Lu Yang and Peng Mo, Shen Lang dialed a number!
The call was connected, and a middle-aged man's voice sounded on the other end of the line: "Mr. Shen, you are so tired! How come you have time to contact me today?"

"Director Cheng, long time no see!" It turned out that the person Shen Lang called was Cheng Dong, the martial arts director of "New Dragon Inn".

Cheng Dong was born into a family of martial arts. His father is a martial arts film director, and he is a frequent winner of the Academy Award for Best Action Design.

He can be said to be a leading figure in the circle.

Shen Lang was not familiar with the candidates for martial arts films, but this one was very familiar!
After hearing Shen Lang's narration, Cheng Dong said on the other end of the phone: "I think I understand. What you want is not Xu Ke's flying martial arts movies, but real swords and guns, hard bridges and hard horses!"

Hit the nail on the head.

Cheng Dong thought about it, then said to Shen Lang, "For the role of Shen Lian, I have a candidate ready-made, Zhang Zheng, are you familiar with him, Mr. Shen?"

Zhang Zheng!

As soon as Lu Yang heard the name, his eyes lit up.

If Shen Lang does not play the role of Shen Lian, then Zhang Zheng would definitely be the most suitable candidate.

Zhang Zheng is from Wandao and has starred in many movies before.

But later, due to the needs of filming, he specifically sought out a famous teacher to learn Bajiquan.

Zhang Zheng did not learn casually. Later, he even won a prize in the "Shen Qiang Cup" Bajiquan martial arts competition.

After that, he was recognized as a “good fighter” in the circle!
If we invite him to perform, there is nothing wrong with it except the cost.

Just when Shen Lang was about to ask Cheng Dong to contact Zhang Zheng, there was an unexpected surprise. Cheng Dong said, "Mr. Shen, do you remember the last time I went to Zhejiang Satellite TV to participate in a program?"

Of course Shen Lang remembered that the last time he went to Zhejiang Satellite TV to be interviewed about the drama "Drawing Sword", he happened to meet Cheng Dong.

Cheng Dong said that he went to Zhejiang Satellite TV to participate in a program.

"It just so happens that I met a few actresses on a program I participated in on Zhejiang Satellite TV. They all have the potential to be action stars. By the way, do you know the host Zhu Dan?"

"do not know!"

"Okay, don't ask anymore. I'll help you contact them and see if they have time. If they do, I'll arrange an audition as soon as possible!"

There are few stars who can fight, and even fewer female stars who can fight.

Shen Lang is Shen Lang after all, his network of contacts is terrifyingly powerful. Li Sang is already amazing, but who would have thought that he could just make a random phone call and end up calling the gold medal martial arts director Cheng Dong.

I just don’t know if Zhang Zheng and Zhu Dan will agree to join this small crew!

However, two days later, what Lu Yang did not expect was that not only Zhang Zheng and Zhu Dan were willing to star in his play, but it even attracted many domestic actors to introduce themselves.

For example, Nie Yu, Wang Qianyuan, and Liu Sisi.

Among these actors, Nie Yu is a veteran actor and has no shortage of roles to play.

Wang Qianyuan, the newly crowned film emperor, is a rising star in mainland China.

Liu Sisi, a popular young actress,

Lu Yang finally got rid of his initial joy, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

She didn't come here for her own crew, she came here for Shen Lang!

Shen Lang didn't expect that his appeal was so great.

The news that he had joined the crew of "The Blade of the Assassin" leaked out from somewhere.

No matter whether they are actors in the entertainment industry, such as making movies, singing, crosstalk or skits, they all have connections. Even parents who are far away in the United States have called them.

Well, I’m just an actor, and a supporting role at that, but I act like I’m the director.

Finally, even Gu Jialan spoke up.

But soon, the cast was complete.

When Shen Lang joined the group, everyone was very polite when they met each other.

Especially Zhang Zheng, because of Shen Lang, he joined the crew with low pay, just to take advantage of the popularity of the "traffic code" in the film and television industry.

After everyone exchanged greetings, the first meeting of the crew began.

But everyone waited and waited, and the most important person in this film...the martial arts director Li Sang was still nowhere to be found.

I saw everyone sitting in the conference room looking at each other, waiting for the meeting to start.

But Li Sang was nowhere to be seen.

Finally, Lu Yang got anxious and took out his cell phone to call Li Sang.

But Li Sang didn't answer the call.

The actors and staff in the room looked at Lu Yang eagerly. Although many of them didn't say anything, they were already muttering in their hearts!
"He is a young director after all, and his work is unreliable!"

"I told you, Li Sang is such a big shot, how could he possibly be in this group!"

"That's not right. How big of a figure is Shen Lang? He's just sitting there politely greeting the director! I heard that Mr. Li is a very arrogant person! And he has a lot of rules. Could it be that our director didn't follow the rules?"

"Rules? What rules? Why haven't I heard of them?"

……

As the murmurs from the audience grew louder, Lu Yang's face grew darker and darker as he was stood up.
