Chapter 235: Golden Ocean Luck Card: Activated!
At this moment,
In Chunyang Province, the "Never Expected There to Be One" Film and Television Media Company,
Meeting Room
"Director Han, these four are the most promising newcomers in our company."
On a spacious and luxurious sofa,
A man wearing glasses, looking somewhat harsh, sat in the middle,
His critical gaze swept over the four people standing before him.
Zhu Tingting stood naturally at the far end.
The man before them was Han Peng,
A director with considerable standing in the industry, currently casting for his public service advertisement.
The "Never Expected There to Be One" Film and Television Media Company had gotten wind of this opportunity and managed, through various maneuvers, to secure a chance for their actors to appear.
Zhu Tingting, as a newly recruited star of the company, also got an interview opportunity.
However, this morning, his agent had already gently informed him
that his appearance leaned more towards an idol look, making it unlikely for him to be selected for this public service advertisement.
Today's arrangement was merely to get him some face time with Director Han.
Therefore, Zhu Tingting felt no pressure and simply washed his face before coming.
Sure enough,
After Han Peng glanced over the four people,
his gaze landed directly on a fair-skinned, sweet-smiling girl with no aggressiveness,
and they exchanged a few words.
It seemed he quite favored this girl.
The other two "new stars" looked at the girl with envy.
In this industry, to say something mystical,
there truly is something called "luck."
Many people say "personal ability" is important,
but it's undeniable that "luck" is also a part of one's ability,
often, it plays a significantly large part.
Many things happen without reason, one can only believe in fate.
Just as Han Peng became more satisfied with the girl, preparing to designate her as the lead in his public service ad,
suddenly,
Zhu Tingting frowned, feeling something burning his leg.
He reached into his pocket,
but found nothing but his phone,
"Could my phone be burning?!"
Zhu Tingting's expression changed slightly.
If it weren't for the presence of the director and producer, he would have taken out his phone to check it right there.
The phone itself wasn't the issue,
the key was the item tucked in its case, which was too important!
It absolutely couldn't be burnt!
As Zhu Tingting grew uneasy,
Han Peng suddenly frowned slightly, his gaze inexplicably shifting to Zhu Tingting,
After sizing him up, he asked curiously,
"What's your name?"
"Me?"
Zhu Tingting pointed at himself in surprise, not expecting the question, and replied,
"Hello Director Han, my name is Zhu Tingting."
Han Peng scrutinized Zhu Tingting, growing increasingly astonished.
At first glance, Zhu Tingting seemed like an ordinary passerby.
Nothing about him suggested he had the potential to become a big star,
at most, he looked like an average artist trying to make a living.
But for some reason,
in an instant, he felt a light emanating from Zhu Tingting,
that light, though fleeting,
was bright and dazzling,
radiating the aura of a future star.
"Did I misjudge someone?!"
Han Peng was surprised.
He had seen countless actors and stars, and could usually tell at a glance who had that special something.
But today, he almost missed a good talent!
"Have you acted in anything before?" Han Peng asked,
Zhu Tingting honestly replied, "I only had a small role in the 'Sweetheart' drama."
The agent beside him, noticing the change, quickly added,
"Director Han, Tingting is a newly hired artist in our company."
"Though he only had a small role in the 'Sweetheart' drama, it was Director Kou who personally selected him."
"Kou Cen personally picked him?!"
Han Peng's interest piqued even more, and he asked,
"Where is your hometown?"
Zhu Tingting answered, "I'm from Nanjiang."
"Growing up by the sea…"
Upon hearing this, Han Peng felt even more satisfied.
He stood up and said to Zhu Tingting,
"Work out and shape up these days, and wait for my call."
With that, Han Peng nodded at the agent, indicating that Zhu Tingting was chosen as the male lead for the advertisement.
Zhu Tingting was stunned,
the two envious newcomers were stunned.
The fair-skinned girl was also stunned.
Just moments ago, Han Peng had chosen her!
How did it change to Zhu Tingting in the blink of an eye?!
"Director Han, what about me?"
The fair-skinned girl asked courageously as Han Peng was leaving.
"Young people will have many opportunities in the future…"
Han Peng said without even looking at her, and walked out of the room.
The atmosphere became extremely silent.
"Director Han has left, why aren't you escorting him!"
In the next moment,
before Zhu Tingting could react, his agent had already pulled him out of the meeting room.
In the meeting room,
the fair-skinned girl slumped on the sofa,
muttering to herself,
"How could this happen…"
...
On the way, Zhu Tingting was in a daze,
it wasn't until he had escorted Han Peng to the car and his agent spoke to him,
that he fully realized,
this huge opportunity had really fallen into his lap.
"I never expected Director Han to choose you for the ad,"
"Tingting, you're really lucky!"
"Han Peng is a well-known director in the industry, though strict, his works always have high audience ratings."
"With this debut experience, your career platform will be much higher than others!"
"Great prospects ahead!!!"
Saying this,
the agent scrutinized Zhu Tingting's physique, and said sternly,
"From today, strictly control your diet, and increase your fitness regime."
"I'll book a skincare session at the beauty salon for you in a few days."
"I'll also look for some related ocean-themed advertisements for you…"
"This is an opportunity delivered to you, make sure to seize it."
"Don't assume this resource is 100% yours."
"If you don't perform well, you can be replaced anytime during shooting,"
"Got it, Sister Zhu." Zhu Tingting nodded.
The agent nodded with satisfaction and walked into the company building.
Seeing no one around,
Zhu Tingting quickly took out his phone, removed the case, and pulled out the item tucked inside.
It was a golden card.
There were only 100 such cards worldwide, and his was the second one.
The card still retained some warmth,
as sunlight hit it, it reflected a dazzling light.
It seemed to pave a golden road before Zhu Tingting.
"I've heard that the entertainment industry also values luck, the boss couldn't help you much."
"If you can sail smoothly, that's for the best."
"But if not, let the hotel's luck help you overcome obstacles."
Chen Jianhai's words echoed in Zhu Tingting's ears,
He looked at the card in his hand, gazing towards Nanjiang, filled with confusion.
"Could it really be that I borrowed the hotel's luck?"
"Is this real…"
"This is too mystical, isn't it?!?!!"
