Chapter 92: a blessing in disguise
Xu Zimian, who returned to his original position, found that there was a stranger in the seat he had just sat in, or should be said that there was an additional foreigner.
The man was in his early forties, wearing a pair of golden thin-frame glasses, elegant in temperament, handsome in appearance, and especially dazzling with golden curly hair.
Pei Yan took a half step forward, protecting Xiao Mianhua behind him, and watching the foreigner in front of him vigilantly.
He noticed the presence of this foreigner just now, sitting three rows behind them. Since I moved to this row on purpose, I think I came here specifically to find them.
The man stood up, stretched out his hand towards Pei Yan, and introduced himself in a gentlemanly manner: "Hello, my name is Karl Veblen, and I'm a director."
Veblen's Mandarin is not standard, with a strong accent, but at least it can be understood.
Out of courtesy, Pei Yan reached out and shook Veblen.
Karl Veblen?
The name sounded a little familiar, Xu Zimian thought about it, and suddenly said, "Is that the director who filmed "Morning Song Story" and "Soul Youth"?!"
Veblen gave a gentleman's salute and smiled happily: "I'm very honored that you have seen the movie I made. I wonder if you can sit down and talk about it?"
Pei Yan looked back at Xiao Mianhua.
Xu Zimian nodded slightly, this is a school, not anyone can come in casually, let alone a foreigner.
Xu Zimian likes director Veblen very much. He is a famous director in Hollywood, especially good at shooting musicals. There are many divine comedies in each movie, which are always fresh in my memory.
Wei Bulun was looking for Xu Zimian. He didn't mind Pei Yan being between him and Xu Zimian. Instead, he admired Pei Yan very much. Unfortunately, the film he was preparing did not require Oriental Boys.
Veblen introduced himself again: "I'm Carl Veblen, and your principal is an old friend. I came to China this time to find a young oriental actor to take part in the shooting of my new movie."
Looking at Xu Zimian, Veblen issued a sincere invitation, "My girl, after hearing your singing, I knew that you were the girl I was looking for. Mainly for musicals. I can tell you for sure, I need you, I need your singing!"
"Maybe you have never been in filmmaking, I want to ask you, would you like to try it?"
Xu Zimian was stunned that the famous Hollywood director Karl Veblen actually invited me to participate in the filming of the musical! ?
She could clearly hear the pounding of her heart, and excitedly urged her to agree quickly.
So is this a blessing in disguise?
If Xue Ying hadn't signed up for herself without authorization, and she wouldn't have hurried on stage to sing, she wouldn't have met Director Veblen and received an invitation to the other party's musical.
Resisting the excitement in his heart, Xu Zimian asked carefully, "I don't know what movie it is?"
Wanting to harvest this beautiful singing little angel, Veblen naturally knows everything, "It's a musical with a fairy tale color, and Tania and Hill are the only two elves left."
Tanya is the female lead in the play, a new-born elf. She has blond hair as bright as sunlight and can command all the animals in the forest.
She is lively and cheerful, looking forward to the outside world. The birth of Tanya awakened the originally quiet forest and brought brilliant colors to the forest.
Hill is the second female lead in the play, an elf who was born before Tania. She has dark hair as mysterious as night and can command all the plants in the forest.
She was introverted and quiet, and she kept in mind her mother-in-law's words, and did not dare to take a half step out of the forest. With the birth of Tanya, Hill, who was not grown up, began to grow up. Finally, for Tanya, bravely stepped out of the forest.
"I want to invite you to play Hill. According to your schedule, filming will start after the winter vacation. I wonder if you are interested in auditioning?"
Afraid to scare away the little actor with the voice of an angel, Veblen quickly explained: "The audition is mainly about the suitability of the voice, acting skills..." Veblen smiled confidently, "I believe that under my guidance, you There must be no problem."
In this musical called "Song of the Elf", the plot of childhood accounts for about half, and Hill's plot is almost concentrated in childhood.
Thinking that there are many songs waiting for him to sing, Xu Zimian can't wait to agree immediately, "Hello Director Veblen, I'm actually a little actor too."
"Oh, my baby!" Knowing that Xu Zimian was a child star, Veblen became more determined to want Xu Zimian.
The little girl in front of her was as cute as an elf, and she also had a mystery that belonged to the Chinese. With a beautiful voice that has been kissed by an angel, she is also a child star with acting experience.
If he missed Xu Zimian, where would he go to find a young Dongfang actor who met Hill's conditions?
"Child, are you worried about your parents?"
Xu Zimian nodded and said, "Yes, my parents love me very much. After they know it, they will definitely support me. But before I promise you, I must ask their consent."
Veblen expressed his understanding, and handed his business card to Xu Zimian, "Maybe you can let me talk to your parents in person? After all, I want to abduct their precious daughter to the United States, and shoot for at least two months. ."
Xu Zimian solemnly accepted the business card from Veblen, "I'll let my parents get in touch with you as soon as I get home."
Veblen couldn't wait to receive a call from Xu Zimian's parents, "My phone is ready for you 24 hours a day."
After watching Director Veblen leave, Xu Zimian looked at the business card in his hand, giggled twice, and pinched his cheek in disbelief.
Isn't she dreaming?
Is she really going to star in Veblen's musical?
Seeing Xu Zimian's blushing cheeks, Pei Yan reluctantly grabbed her little hand that was ravaging her cheeks, "Wake up, you are not dreaming, you really received an invitation from Director Veblen."
Xu Zimian raised his head suddenly, the stars in his eyes were bright.
She hugged Pei Yan excitedly, wishing she could hug Pei Yan for a few laps, "Brother Ayan, I'm so happy! It's a musical directed by Veblen!"
"Yes yes yes!" Seeing that someone turned his head to look at them, Pei Yan pulled Xiao Mian back into the chair, holding down Xiao Mian who was shaking constantly, "I know you are very excited, but don't forget the school celebration performance."
Xu Zimian was pulled back to reality by Pei Yan's words, and it was two months after the filming of "Song of the Elf" started.
With their current scores, they should be able to enter the official performance list with the top three good scores.
And what she has to do is to take advantage of this weekend to improve the song with brother Ayan.
Tell Xue Ying with your strength, don't mess with me again!
