Chapter 224 Help from a chance meeting
Liu Jianglin often encounters people like this.
I feel that my talents are not appreciated, I feel that I am missing a chance, or my situation is too bad, but when I look at those who have succeeded, I always feel that they are just luckier, or their opportunities are better.
Liu Jianglin has become accustomed to others looking at him with the eyes of "Look, how lucky you are."
Because compared to many people, she is indeed lucky.
She became famous early enough, and her popularity lasted for a long time, not just a flash in the pan.
Even if she encounters something like Zhao Debao and needs to leave her country and come to a foreign country to look for opportunities, her starting point is much higher than many people.
Just like Luna, she has such good appearance, she specializes in acting, and her acting skills are pretty good, but she still needs to look for opportunities and wait for them.
Liu Jianglin is self-aware of herself. She never feels that her success is inevitable and must belong to her.
But she also doesn't like to hear others always emphasize how good her starting point and choices are, while their opportunities are much worse.
In fact, everyone is waiting for an opportunity at the beginning.
Everyone experiences embarrassment.
Even if you succeed, it doesn't mean everything will be smooth sailing from now on.
Just like when she was filming "Not Small Ambition", she also needed to be choked by the second female lead.
Just like when she was at the height of her popularity, she still couldn't get in if she wanted to make a movie.
There is a time when everyone is unable to do what they want.
Liu Jianglin has been in the United States for a while. She has never complained to anyone about how lonely her life is here, how difficult it is to find an opportunity, how many times she has met so many people, and how many times she has been disappointed. She has never complained once.
.
Because she corrected her mentality when she came.
This is what we will inevitably face.
In her opinion, Luna was the same way.
You have chosen to pursue the path of being an actor. OK, what you are talking about now are all problems you will inevitably face.
Except for a very small number of the second generation of stars, the second generation of rich people, and the second generation of power, with the help of their ancestors, they don’t have to go through those things that no one cares about in the initial stage, when they are eager for a small opportunity, who else has not come here like this?
What about?
It was impossible for Liu Jianglin to say these words to Luna.
But that's what she thought in her heart.
She also hopes that people like Luna can understand.
But Luna obviously won't be able to understand it in a short time.
She didn't listen to Liu Jianglin's words, but still said to herself: "Sometimes I really hope that when I wake up, I can receive a call telling me that I passed the audition."
Liu Jianglin was silent.
She thought to herself, then I can only wish you good luck.
Jack Welton sent Liu Jianglin downstairs to her house.
"Bye," he said.
Liu Jianglin said: "Thank you."
She got out of the car and went back to rest and sleep.
I got to know a lot of people at once that night.
She was afraid that she would not remember it, so she came together the next morning and entered the names of these people on her mobile phone, as well as who they were and what their characteristics were, otherwise she would forget them the next time they met.
Yes, that would be embarrassing.
She was going to Zuomeng's office in the morning to talk to him about her agent, and also made an appointment with Zuomeng for lunch.
After her morning run, she made herself a cup of cereal. After eating, she took a shower and started studying the script. Then she went out at ten o'clock in the morning and prepared to arrive at Zuomeng's office at eleven o'clock. After chatting like this, it happened to be
Have lunch together.
The sun is very good.
Liu Jianglin took a taxi and came to Zuomeng's office.
There happens to be a cafe next door.
Liu Jianglin sent a message to Zuo Meng: Brother Zuo, would you like to bring you a cup of coffee?
Zuomeng: OK.
Liu Jianglin bought two cups of coffee and went upstairs.
The other two men in the elevator kept staring at her.
Liu Jianglin smiled at them and walked out of the elevator.
The secretary of Zuomeng is a relatively fat lady but very agile.
"Are you Miss Liu?" The lady looked at Liu Jianglin and said, "Mr. Zuo is already waiting for you, please come in."
Liu Jianglin felt that there was something unusual in the way this lady looked at him.
It seemed like he was sizing up one of Zuomeng's girlfriends.
Liu Jianglin thought to himself that he might have been misunderstood again.
She smiled and entered Zuomeng's office.
"Hi, Brother Zuo."
When Zuo Meng saw her coming in, he got up and left his desk, went to the reception area, and asked Liu Jianglin to sit down on the sofa.
"Latte." Liu Jianglin brought the coffee to Zuomeng, "I don't know what you usually drink, so I bought this."
Zuo Meng said: "I drink them all. Anyway, I can't tell the difference when it comes to coffee."
Liu Jianglin smiled and nodded.
"Have you received the script?" Zuo Meng asked.
Liu Jianglin nodded and said, "A man named Jack Welton sent it to me. He is also an actor in this play."
Zuomeng: "Jack Winton? Never heard of him."
"He is still a student and seems to have just started acting." Liu Jianglin said, "Brother Zuo, you said you wanted to introduce me to some agents. Do you have any recommendations?"
Zuo Meng handed Liu Jianglin the bound information he had just taken from his desk.
"I sent a copy of your information to some well-known brokers and brokerage companies in the industry. These are the ones who are more interested in you and have good reviews in the industry." Zuo Meng said, "You can take a look first.
If you have any questions, you can ask me directly, but I am not very familiar with some of them."
Liu Jianglin nodded and immediately started reading.
Zuo Meng selected nine agents for Liu Jianglin. Judging from the information, they were all very experienced agents. Liu Jianglin had heard of all the celebrities he had managed.
Liu Jianglin was shocked.
In this way, these agents are actually very big-name agents.
If she can have one of them as her agent, she will get a lot of convenience.
Liu Jianglin really didn't expect that Zuomeng would help her contact them.
In fact, Liu Jianglin also knows that for an actor like herself, there should be many agents in Hollywood willing to sign her.
However, her embarrassment is that she doesn't know anyone in Hollywood and has no channel to contact them.
Besides, Liu Jianglin doesn't know which one of them is more suitable for her.
This all requires information, some more personal information.
Without Zuo Meng's help, she would have had to take many detours and suffer losses here.
Everything Zuomeng did was out of morality and without any reward.
