"Deputy Director Zheng, the person is here."

Come to a small office building with an office on the fourth floor.

The staff who picked him up was probably the director assistant. He led him into a room where a man in his thirties and under forty sat there watching the computer sort out something.

Hearing the voice, he looked up and signaled that the assistant could leave.

He stood up and shook hands with Han Lu without being enthusiastic, but he was not cold: "Zheng Qiang, deputy director of the crew."

Han Lu was stunned: "Associate Director..."

He has no other meaning. Normally, no matter the size of the character or the status of the artist, the crew invites you, even if you are a big director, you have to go through the program. For example, to invite the script first, and then make an appointment with everyone.

There are not many cases like Han Lu came alone and was picked up.

Especially the assistant director reception...

Although it is definitely impossible for the director to care about everything, if he is not a big producer, the director will definitely choose it himself. Unless he is a big producer or audition type, the assistant director will have finished screening and the rest will be given to the director or anyone else.

And Han Lu thinks the name of this movie is a bit familiar.

Many people don’t know this life. And the names of many film and television dramas and even variety shows have changed.

While he has to work hard to match the numbers, some of his previous lives may not know and understand.

He hasn't read the script yet, but it seems to be a movie that looks very similar to his previous life. It's just not sure.

But it doesn't matter, let's talk about it when we meet. But he didn't expect that he might not be able to read his script.

"how?"

Deputy Director Zheng Qiang joked and asked Han Lu: "I think I am an assistant director?"

Han Lu smiled: "That's not. But it seems that there are quite a lot of competitors?"

Zheng Qiang paused and looked at Han Lu: "Have you learned to play drums?"

Han Lu shook his head: "When talking about guitar, you can also get a little bass, and other instruments..."

Zheng Qiang felt a little regretful: "That's probably not easy to deal with."

Han Lu was surprised and looked at Zheng Qiang unsure: "Isn't it necessary to sweep the floor and go out?"

Zheng Qiang looked at Han Lu with a weird expression: "Do you really don't know or pretend to be confused?"

Somewhat helpless: "If you pretend to be confused, it will be difficult for me."

Han Lu laughed: "You contacted me last night, and I came at noon. Do you think I'm making things difficult for you?"

Zheng Qiang also felt that it didn't seem so coincidental, and looked at Han Lu in confusion: "Didn't you receive the news? We called your agent in the morning. Let me briefly explain the situation."

Han Lu was puzzled and subconsciously held his cell phone. Sure enough, the power was turned off just now. He couldn't start even if he started, and it was enough to call the staff who answered him.

"I forgot to charge my phone."

Han Lu looked at Zheng Qiang: "Is there any problem? I should be on the plane in the morning. But when I just contacted your staff to pick it up, there were a few text messages..."

Then he laughed: "You just agreed to me directly. I'm all here. I won't have to bother you for a character. But at least you don't play people. You can't play without playing drums. You can say this by phone last night, and you're going to let me go?"

Zheng Qiang was silent for a moment, his tone and attitude were much more relaxed than he had just now.

He got up and poured Han Lu a glass of water. Han Lu took it politely, but did not drink it, but waited.

The other party breathed out, closed the door, and sat down again.

"It's okay to say it in person."

Zheng Qiang raised his hand and signaled: "I'll declare first. The program team has no intention of looking down on you. At the same time, the reason why we Director Xiao Kun did not see you in person is that we want everyone to keep a little face and not offend others. You will know what I said below. If you are willing to go outside and say it's up to you, we will definitely not admit it. You will definitely lose face when the time comes."

Han Lu frowned: "I haven't been active for two years, so I won't be so silly."

Zheng Qiang smiled and said, "We have also learned about this. You have a good reputation and good connections during the event. In addition, your image and temperament are in line with you, otherwise our director Xiao Kun would not look for you."

Han Lu didn't say anything. None of these was useful. Anyway, they were all reversed, and he wanted to hear the reason.

Zheng Qiang hesitated and looked at Han Lu: "Do you know Wang Yuan?"

Han Lu frowned and thought.

Wang Yuan…

Curiously speaking: "Who is shooting the meteor shower with Deng Shuang?"

Zheng Qiang looked weird: "You don't have a deep impression of him."

Han Lu was puzzled: "In my impression, I didn't seem to have seen him. And I have never cooperated with him."

Zheng Qiang paused and nodded, "His girlfriend happened to be the heroine of this drama. I don't know why, but today I happened to talk to our director and I knew I would invite you to play the band drummer. As a result, the heroine was a little unhappy. Later, after leaving on excuses, she came back not long after, and the agent and our director had reacted..."

Han Lu was not stupid either, he just had no experience in the entertainment industry.

Why are they telling you this? Although Han Lu was still confused, he already had a little premonition...

"I... was kicked away by her...?"

Han Lu asked Zheng Qiang in a tentative manner, but Zheng Qiang didn't say anything, just as he agreed.

"Oh……"

Han Lu smiled: "What a big name? Can I mess with others?"

Zheng Qiang waved his hand: "It's not a problem with big and small brands. First of all, you should know the rules in the circle. Many actors and stars do have conflicts, and they don't come if you come, and they don't come if they come. So if you sign a contract at the beginning, after reading the script, you will ask who is working together. If there are conflicts, you will naturally not cooperate. Of course, unless the big director or the drama is particularly attractive, that situation is different."

Looking at Han Lu: "This was not an important role. It was just one of the drummers. So Director Xiao Kun mentioned the other lineups roughly, and the other party signed it if there was nothing. Now that he suddenly joined you, Director Xiao Kun didn't expect it, so he asked the reason. It was definitely impossible for her to kick it away if she said she would kick it away..."

Han Lu frowned: "What does it mean? Director Xiao Kun asked the reason and felt that he didn't want to sign me, which is also in line with human nature?"

Zheng Qiang endured it again and again, looking at Han Lu: "Are you sure you really don't know? Didn't you shoot Jianhu 2?"

Han Lu was stunned: "I took it..."

With a flash of inspiration, this Deputy Director Zheng had been talking nonsense for so long, and Han Lu had just put all the information on it.

Jianhu 2, then Wang Yuan, and then his girlfriend happens to be the heroine of this drama.

"I took his role."

Han Lu looked at Zheng Qiang: "So his girlfriend knew that I was going to play a drummer on this crew, so she kicked me away on excuses?"

Zheng Qiang frowned: "Don't you know how you got into Jianhu 2?"

Han Lu didn't say anything anymore. He must have never known it before, thinking that the company and even Sister Chen found him, at least Director Wu Xing didn't know where to ask about his situation and see that he was pitiful? Then he found it?

It seems quite naive now.

He knew that although the box office of this movie was not favored at the beginning, what else did he say after it was released? And it was not the first time to change the actors. The heroine in it was not the heroine who later. She was a second- and third-tier figure at the beginning, but later she found the current one.

Especially after that call, it was completely confirmed at this moment.

Otherwise, Mr. Xu would not know it, but Sister Chen would not know it.

"That……"

Han Lu wanted to laugh and looked at Zheng Qiang: "I said I really don't know, you probably don't believe it, right?"

Zheng Qiang's face was relaxed instead: "I believe it."

Han Lu was stunned.

Zheng Qiang said: "In order to promote new people, or to grab resources for their own artists, the company may not tell the artists. This is also the company's business."

Looking at Han Lu, Zheng Qiang said, "So we called your company first after we learned about it. But your company knew the situation and didn't say much. And it's not a problem you know or not. Do you know, you've already taken it off. They're back now, and..."

Zheng Qiang didn't say much, but Han Lu could understand.

Besides, do you still have to think about how to choose the heroine and the supporting actor?

Not to mention the scene, Han Lu didn't know how popular the heroine was, but it was enough for him to know how popular he was now.

After pondering for a moment, Han Lu nodded: "Is there any turnaround?"

Zheng Qiang shook his head: "We thought you already know. But we still asked someone to pick you up, wanting to go through the motions. If you can't play drums, you can practice in advance. After all, the computer will only be turned on in early April. There is still more than a month left, so you don't need to learn it, just enough to shoot it."

Han Lu knew that this was an excuse.

"Then I understand."

Han Lu stood up and shook hands with Zheng Qiang: "My company didn't say anything, and I had nothing to say. It's fair, and I'll report it back to it."

Zheng Qiang nodded: "I'm sorry. I hope you can understand..."

Han Lu said: "Understanding. It's my own reason after all, and it has nothing to do with the crew."

Otherwise, what could Han Lu say?

Zheng Qiang sent Han Lu out, but he actually saw a lot of things like this. He would not announce it to the public.

After a few polite words, I took them to the elevator entrance and then they went back.

Anyway, Han Lu is quite calm, the key is that compared to Han Lu, Han Lu has nothing to say. This matter is decided.

Now speaking out to the outside world, how many people can make decisions about artists, but not companies and agents?

Han Lu stood there alone, very calmly.
