At that moment, they were all talking at once about the lineup of directors and investors.
Message after message flooded in about this investor and that investor, which film emperor had also auditioned, and she felt dizzy from the array of company names and actor lists.
Impressive though I don’t get it.
This Director Li seems to be a pretty big deal.
Seeing everyone chatting happily, Tang Shu took a screenshot and sent it to Sister Luo.
Just as she was about to ask if there was any future in being a props director, Sister Luo called her.
"Agree to it, agree to it!"
"....About that, I haven’t figured out whether I can take on the job."
"That’s not important, just agree to it first!!!"
Sister Luo, have you lost it?
Isn’t it supposed to be crucial to ensure the job is within one’s capabilities in this day and age?
"Sister Luo, calm down first."
"I have to be excited! I remember you were the props director on the set of ’Heroes in Troubled Times’, why hesitate, just agree first!"
Tang Shu had no choice but to calm her down.
"Even though they’re both ancient settings, many of the cultures and essences are different, a miss is as good as a mile."
"Oh, this sort of thing, once you’ve got it, you’ve got it all, and the difference between the settings of ’Heroes in Troubled Times’ and ’Corridor Pavilion’ is only a couple hundred years. You can definitely do a good job!"
Tang Shu, completely ignorant about the historical background of this era - Miss Tang Shu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of a question.
"Sister Luo, if I go to this crew as a props director, might I get to see the Film Emperors performing opposite each other?"
Since the production is a big one and the director is incredibly impressive, that means there’s something for her to learn.
Where could be better than on-site training to improve one’s acting skills and accumulate experience?
Tang Shu was tempted.
Sister Luo was even more tempted than her, "Of course, it’s been three or four years since Director Li last made an appearance. He’s always been mixing it up in the TV industry, but each one of his series is a hit, classics that can stay popular for a decade or two. And he aims for the awards with his series. It’s almost predictable that next year’s awards will be swept by ’Corridor Pavilion’!"
Sister Luo rattled on non-stop, leaving Tang Shu in a daze.
She had only caught one key point: this Director Li is the real deal.
Sister Luo held Director Li in high esteem in her speech, and the topic drifted without her realizing until she remembered what Tang Shu had just said, and she suddenly shifted the conversation.
"But I didn’t think of all that just now. If you can become the props director and get familiar with Director Li and have him remember you, you’d be blessed."
Your expectations are truly not that high.
For a moment, Tang Shu felt disheartened, wasn’t I the most promising newcomer she had ever seen? Why was she playing down my prestige now?
"Sister Luo, is your only expectation for me to get acquainted with the production crew now?"
"Don’t think it’s a lowly expectation, Director Li’s actors are all seasoned professionals, and even the younger ones are mostly A-listers. He has become extremely demanding of acting skills."
Hearing this, Tang Shu fell silent, realizing that she indeed might not be up to the standard.
"Got it, I’ll talk to Director Xie in a moment."
After hanging up the call, Tang Shu replied to Director Xie in the group, and soon he sent her a new business card.
Edit name, profession, add.
