Chapter 48: Back-View Goddess
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
She had already guessed who this important role that Chu Yuan was talking about was, but she still needed to confirm it.
Moreover, Lu Zhen guessed that the reason why Chu Yuan specially mentioned Jiang Wen’s new movie to her was definitely not just a casual remark. It was very likely that Chu Yuan wanted to introduce her to Jiang Wen!
Although Chu Yuan was not a very famous actor in the country, he had been in the industry for many years. His acting skills and reputation were very good. He could be considered a senior in the industry. It was normal for him to have a relationship with some big directors.
Lu Zhen’s current status was not worthy of filming a movie by a big director like Jiang Wen, but if Chu Yuan was in the middle, she might be able to get this opportunity.
“This role is important, but it’s not important either.” Chu Yuan pondered for a moment and explained, “This role runs throughout the movie, but from the beginning to the end, it hasn’t shown its face. There’s only a long shot of its back. ”
It was indeed that character!
Since Chu Yuan had already said so, Lu Zhen no longer continued to be humble. She probed, “Do you think I can try this role?”
“I think your temperament is not bad. Director Jiang has been running around the campus of the domestic film university in the past few months, but he hasn’t found an actress that he’s satisfied with. I can recommend you to him. Go and try. It doesn’t matter if you don’t succeed in the audition. Just treat it as showing your face in front of Director Jiang Wen. What do you think?” Chu Yuan stroked the fake beard on his chin and said with a kind smile.
Lu Zhen hurriedly nodded. “This is a very good opportunity. Mr. Chu, thank you. Thank you so much!”
“Haha, you don’t have to be so polite with me. I also hope that our country’s film industry will get better and better. You’re a good actress. I believe my judgment is not wrong. Go ahead and try!”
Chu Yuan left, but Lu Zhen could not calm down. She never expected that after her rebirth, she would have the chance to audition for an important role in “99 Love Letters”.
Lu Zhen remembered this role very clearly. In her previous life, after “99 Love
Letters” was broadcast, the “back-view goddess” in the movie attracted the attention of fans with her mysterious image, elegant and refined temperament, and graceful figure. Those who had seen the movie guessed who the “back-view goddess” was. The discussion was even more popular than the female lead of the movie, Pan Miao.
In the end, Xu Rui, who played the role of the “back-view goddess”, became popular overnight. The “back-view goddess” was also known by fans as the goddess of first love. Because in the movie “99 Love Letters”, the back view of the “back-view goddess” became the first love of the male lead for ten years.
The popularity of the “back-view goddess” was too high. Xu Rui received a bonus that surpassed the movie itself in this passionate revelry. She jumped to become a popular newcomer in the film industry. From then on, there were endless contracts. In her previous life, before Lu Zhen died, Xu Rui was already the “big sister” in the film industry and the highest paid actress in the country.
Who would have thought that a small supporting role in a movie could cause such a huge storm?
Even the usually calm Lu Zhen’s eyes burned. She had to get this role!
Lu Zhen stood up and had already formulated a plan. At the moment, she was still a distance away from the perfect “back-view goddess”. This was the direction she had been working towards recently.
The “back-view goddess” in the movie appeared at about 16 or 17 years old. She was not much older than her, mainly in terms of temperament. To be able to make the male lead fall in love at first sight and have a crush for ten years, this character’s temperament was definitely not something ordinary people could compare to.
More importantly, the first appearance of this character was her playing the piano in the piano room. Although Lu Zhen had learned the piano before, she was not very good at it. She was only more skilled among amateurs.
But that didn’t matter. She still had some time to study and prepare. As long as she could move Jiang Wen during the audition, she would have a chance to get this role.
Lu Zhen was thinking about something and didn’t even notice Xiaoxiao walking towards her when she reached the entrance of the tent.
Xiaoxiao held the cell phone in her hand and said excitedly, “Sister Zhenzhen, your ‘battle-damaged makeup’ has become popular. Oh my god, why is this candid picture so popular!”
Lu Zhen took the small cell phone curiously.
On that day’s trending topics, the first three were—
“The latest official picture of ‘The Great Wall of War’ has been exposed. Lu Zhen’s battle-damaged makeup is extremely beautiful!”
“The beautiful ceiling is broken. The beautiful general has gone crazy from killing!”
“The beauty blogger imitated Lu Zhen’s battle-damaged makeup.. Absolutely beautiful!”
