Chapter 340 He actually doesn't like lettuce leaves at all.
Chen Sui felt a lot of pressure.
Even though he had seen his share of ups and downs in the entertainment industry, he still found it hard to look up when Gu Lin, who was on the same level as him but was a top star, stood in front of him.
"Little Gu, don't you need to maintain your figure today?"
Wu Zhen looked at the wine in his hand and said.
"Today... is a special case."
Gu Lin gave a barely perceptible wry smile and raised his glass to the three of them.
If it weren't Wu Zhen who said this, he might have thought the other person was being sarcastic or mocking.
Gu Lin became famous five or six years ago, which was also by chance. He became a hit because he starred in a low-budget BL drama, which happened to be popular at the time.
Becoming a viral sensation is certainly a good thing, but being associated with the words "cold and broken" from now on may not be a good thing.
Duan Feng glanced at the beauty mark at the corner of his eye and smiled, "Little Gu...does your role require this kind of makeup?"
Gu Lin was stunned.
Why are all the senior figures so direct...?
He said he wasn't comfortable in these kinds of social situations. He originally wanted to find a corner to stay in, or just chat with Ji Ran, which would have been nice.
However, Nangong Wang is a high-profile person; he even posted on Weibo when he visited the set.
Although only the helicopter and food items were posted, it's still generating a lot of buzz on Weibo because everyone knows he came to visit Sheng Hanyu.
Therefore, Gu Lin's agent, seeing this situation, naturally encouraged him to take this opportunity to build better relationships with others.
Although Gu Lin is a top star, he is not arrogant. Instead, he always felt that his success was just a coincidence, not inevitable.
He had just graduated from school at that time and was basically a clueless newbie who was gradually pushed to his current position.
Moreover, he has been studying acting and improving himself in his spare time, but... after he became famous, the roles offered to him were all similar, so he has never made any breakthroughs.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have lowered his price to take on the role of Chi Xiao.
He knew his fans were making a big fuss on Weibo, but given that Ye Sanqing and Sheng Hanyu were not to be trifled with, their studio had also put some restrictions on them, so the fans only expressed some dissatisfaction in their own territory.
To the outside world, they would naturally say things like, "Our brother is honored to participate in such a project."
Duan Feng has been in the entertainment industry for many years, so whether it's a natural mole or makeup, it's easy to tell at a glance.
“No, but…” Gu Lin hesitated for a moment, “I have to maintain this image normally, so I’m sorry if the teachers find it laughable.”
As the most powerful warrior under Dugu Rang, Chixiao naturally doesn't need any sense of fragmentation.
"Is being an actor this complicated these days..." Duan Feng seemed to be talking to himself. He glanced at Wu Zhen and Chen Sui and found that the two of them also had expressions of confusion, which he found somewhat amusing.
It seems he's not the only one left behind by the times.
In fact, since Wu Zhen was originally a martial arts choreographer, the term carries a tough guy vibe. When he transitioned to acting, he basically played himself and didn't need to market any persona.
As for Chen Sui, he was practically not even in the industry before.
Although he occasionally sees the controversies and uproar on trending topics, he subconsciously thinks that they have nothing to do with him.
During their script reading, Chen Sui did talk to Gu Lin, but it was mostly focused on studying the script. He was so engrossed then that he didn't think much about it. Now that he thinks about it...
It's fortunate that it wasn't a day when fans visited the set, otherwise Chen Sui would probably have been scolded the next day.
"No, it's just that our company... has rather strict requirements."
Seeing that the others were easygoing, Gu Lin relaxed a bit and started chatting.
He also noticed Chen Sui's nervousness, but he didn't know how to comfort him.
Gu Lin himself doesn't care about the order of billing. Rather, since he made this decision, it would be hypocritical to then make a fuss about the order of billing.
Therefore, he had no objection to Chen Sui, but felt that since the other party had passed the audition, he must have his own abilities.
Moreover, Gu Lin noticed that although the crew provided nutritious meals, Chen Sui only consumed the minimum amount of calories each day in order to maintain the appearance required for the famine.
This is different from him; Gu Lin posts things like "white food" on Weibo every day...
There's no other way; this is the only way to maintain a cool and aloof feeling.
He actually doesn't like eating lettuce leaves at all.
Let's not even talk about working out but not being able to film your muscles, only being able to film your slightly reddened profile and neck, and regularly liking the Weibo posts of people related to art films...
These are all strict rules that his agent imposed on him.
Moreover, Gu Lin's participation in this martial arts drama actually stemmed from a major dispute with his agent.
His agent had always hoped that he would transition to art-house films, but he secretly auditioned without his agent's knowledge to get the opportunity, and he performed exceptionally well during the audition.
Since the die is cast, the agent can't do anything about it; all he can do is tell him not to offend anyone and to try to get along well with everyone.
Because they both knew perfectly well that as popular celebrities in a cast full of talented actors, it was best to keep a low profile.
Speaking of which, Gu Lin auditioned for Death, but lost to Ji Ran... Ji Ran's gloomy temperament was quite unique.
The production team contacted him afterward, and he was then recast the role of War.
Sigh, even Ji Ran doesn't need to diet anymore, but I have to eat leafy greens... Gu Lin thought of Ji Ran and felt somewhat helpless.
He observed the crew for a while and found that almost no one was marketing a persona; everyone was very casual...
Of course, there are wealthy families like Ye Sanqing and Sheng Hanyu that are enviable, and most of them are senior figures. It's fine if the seniors don't have this habit, but among his peers, he is the only one who needs to market his persona.
Ji Ran's previous Weibo posts were mostly about attending and walking in fashion shows. Also, because the other party was active abroad, the posts were mostly about celebrity gatherings, which was quite different from the style of the domestic entertainment industry.
Lin Qianren has absolutely no marketing involvement.
Another actress of the same age is Chi Weichen, who plays Su Meier, the Soul-Stealing Princess, the head of the Illusionary Sound Pavilion. She was also originally a dancer, and she often posts about her competitions and training routines...
Gu Lin hadn't thought much about this before he came, because his previous environment made him think that everyone had some kind of persona, and that they were definitely different from their online image in real life. But when he arrived, he found that he was the only one who was like that.
And his agent kept putting pressure on him...
He understands that he cannot let down his fans' expectations, but does that mean he has to live an empty life?
If they only like a symbol, then why does it have to be him?
