Chapter 33 Take your clothes off.
Gu Yi slowly raised his head, his eyes suddenly turning fierce, like a wild beast that had been provoked, but his voice was terrifyingly steady.
"I have no accomplices."
His words were firm and resolute.
"I did everything by myself."
Say it again!
I did it all by myself.
Gu Yi repeated,
His jawline was taut.
It exudes a resolute determination, like burning one's boats.
Zeng Guoxiang pointed to Zhou Dongyu, who was standing to the side, indicating that she represented Chen Nian, who was behind the glass in the corner.
"Now, Chen Nian is right across the glass; look at her."
Gu Yi turned around and looked at Zhou Dongyu.
In that instant, the ruthlessness in his eyes faded, replaced by utter silence.
He didn't yell or shout.
She just watched quietly, her eyes gradually reddening, as if something was churning inside, but she was suppressing it tightly.
His nose twitched slightly, and his Adam's apple bobbed a few times.
All the pain, reluctance, and longing are transformed into the bloodshot eyes, silent yet extremely impactful.
This kind of restrained pain,
It is more moving than a desperate cry.
Zhou Dongyu's pupils constricted slightly; he was moved by Gu Yi's acting skills.
A look of surprise flashed in Zeng Guoxiang's eyes.
We've struck gold!
That's exactly the feeling he wanted.
Xiao Bei never easily shows her vulnerability; she only licks her wounds alone in a corner where no one can see her.
Gu Yi slowly withdrew his gaze, his aura dissipated, and he returned to his usual calm.
"I've made a fool of myself."
After a few seconds of silence in the conference room, producer Xu Yuezhen looked at the young man in front of her with surprise.
The information provided by the fiber optic company only stated that he was a world champion in e-sports and a wildly popular singer, but did not mention that he had any acting experience.
Zhou Dongyu was quite satisfied with him, after all, Qianxi hadn't even turned 18 yet, and he didn't give her the same feeling as Gu Yi.
Zeng Guoxiang was the first to applaud.
"You acted very well."
Xu Yuezhen nodded as well.
"That kind of wildness and forbearance that comes from the bone cannot be acted out; it's more suitable than what Jackson Yee possesses."
Zhou Dongyu said with a smile.
"Are you sure you haven't studied acting?"
Gu Yi smiled and said, "Because I have a friend who attends an arts school, I sometimes study it."
"What's your relationship with fiber optics?"
Xu Yuezhen suddenly asked.
This is also very important to them.
"They want to invest in my studio, but I haven't agreed yet."
Gu Yi responded frankly.
"This audition opportunity was a gift they gave us as a token of our friendship."
The three of them understood instantly.
The current power lies with Gu Yi, not with fiber optics.
Zeng Guoxiang suddenly spoke up.
"Take your clothes off."
"what?"
Gu Yi was stunned for a moment.
Is the Hong Kong entertainment circle really this elaborate?
Although there are rumors that Little Yellow Duck has a close relationship with the father and son, it's not like she would even go after men.
Seeing that he didn't react, Xu Yuezhen quickly explained.
"We didn't mean anything by it."
"There are scenes in the play where Xiao Bei is shirtless, which requires showing off some of his physique. We wanted to see if it fit the character."
Gu Yi understood.
He raised his hand and took off his coat and T-shirt.
He plays e-sports for many years and rarely exercises, so he has a slender build.
However, thanks to the system's support recently, my abdomen has clearly defined abdominal muscles, giving it a primal, wild look.
The three exchanged a glance.
They both saw the satisfaction in each other's eyes.
This shot is definitely a box office hit, as it not only showcases the character's humble origins but also attracts the audience.
"No problem, it fits perfectly."
Zeng Guoxiang nodded.
"Put them on first."
Gu Yi finished dressing.
Zhou Dongyu smiled.
"I'm going back now, you guys chat."
After she left, Zeng Guoxiang looked at Gu Yi.
"Who should you talk to about your salary?"
"Myself."
Gu Yi sat down.
"The team is still being assembled."
At that moment, Xu Yuezhen's phone suddenly vibrated, and the name "Alibaba-Li Zong" appeared on the screen.
Zeng Guoxiang gestured to Gu Yi.
"Thank you for your hard work today. Go back and wait for news. We will notify you as soon as there are any updates."
"Thank you, Director Tsang, and Producer Hui."
After nodding and saying goodbye to the two, Gu Yi left the conference room.
The door had just closed when
Xu Yuezhen pressed the answer button.
"Hello, Mr. Li."
Li Jie is the head of Alibaba Digital Media & Entertainment's film business, president of Taopiaopiao, and head of Youku Movies.
"Mr. Xu, I heard that Qianxi auditioned for the third time. They've been preparing for so long, it's time to make a decision."
Xu Yuezhen listened with a frown, then looked at Zeng Guoxiang and mouthed, "The pressure is coming."
She reassured him over the phone:
"President Li, please don't worry. We've just auditioned a few more actors, and we haven't made a final decision yet."
"It's good that it's not decided yet."
Mr. Li's tone softened somewhat.
"Jackson Yee's popularity and fanbase are undeniable, guaranteeing box office success. He's incomparable to any Tom, Dick, or Harry. Let's not ruin this movie."
After hanging up the phone,
Xu Yuezhen rubbed her temples.
"Look, Alibaba's stance is very clear: they strongly support Qianxi. What do we do now? Should we just give in? He's not bad either."
Derek Tsang tapped on the table.
"The actor's suitability is the most important thing. Gu Yi is more suitable for Xiao Bei than Qian Xi, that's a fact. The pressure from Alibaba is something we need to figure out for Enlight Media."
He picked up his phone and sent a WeChat message to Sun Yonghuan.
"Mr. Sun, Gu Yi's audition went very well; his acting exceeded expectations. However, Alibaba strongly recommends Millennium for this role. Perhaps you could communicate with them to discuss this further so I can make a decision."
Not long after the message was sent,
Sun Yonghuan's reply popped up.
"Thank you, Director Zeng. I didn't expect Gu Yi to receive such high praise from you. No matter what, I will get back to you as soon as possible."
Looking at the phone screen,
Sun Yonghuan's lips curled up slightly.
She originally only wanted to use the resources of "Better Days" to get close to Gu Yi, but she didn't expect this crossover newcomer's acting skills to be so outstanding, which was a pleasant surprise.
Could it be that Gu Yi's acting skills are comparable to Xiao Hu's?
She immediately got up to meet Wang Changtian to discuss the specific plan for connecting with Alibaba.
A short while later, in Wang Changtian's office.
"Director Zeng said that Gu Yi's audition results exceeded expectations, and that we should get him on Alibaba's radar." Sun Yonghuan said with a smile.
"That amazing?"
Wang Changtian was somewhat surprised.
Originally, I sent Gu Yi to try, thinking he would run into trouble, but I didn't expect there to be an unexpected surprise.
"Then I'll talk to Fan Luyuan from Youku. I heard that Lao Ma (Ma Huateng) attaches great importance to Millennium, so we'll have to exchange film resources for it."
"Aren't you going to ask Tencent for help?"
Sun Yonghuan was somewhat surprised.
"Tencent and Alibaba are adversaries. Bringing them here could easily backfire."
"Let's help Gu Yi secure this resource first, and then we can collaborate with Tencent. Maybe we can save on the investment cost."
"Then I'll wait for your good news."
Sun Yonghuan turned and left.
In his office, Wang Changtian called Fan Luyuan of Alibaba Pictures. After their conversation, Fan Luyuan seemed very interested.
After all, they can find another production for Millennium, but collaborating with fiber optics is a different story.
After the first time,
There will be a second time soon.
