Lu Zhen nodded, her expression serious and grateful. “I know you’re doing this for my own good, Mr. Chu. I’m very grateful. If anything happens to me in the future, please tell me directly. Why don’t we add each other as friends?”

The two of them added each other as friends and chatted for a while about the next few scenes. Chu Yuan’s understanding of acting was much more thorough than Lu Zhen’s. Moreover, he had a lot of acting experience with unique views. In the past ten minutes of interaction with Chu Yuan, Lu Zhen seemed to have attended a high-level acting training class and had gained a lot.

Lu Zhen ate the last two mouthfuls of cold food and suddenly thought of something. She asked, “Mr. Chu, are you a local in Beijing?”

“Yes, why?”

“Do you know if there are any delicious restaurants in Beijing? I’m preparing to treat a friend to a meal.” Lu Zhen thought of inviting Song Jia to a meal and prepared to settle this matter as soon as possible.

“You’ve asked the right person. I don’t dare to say that I’ve been to all the delicious restaurants in Beijing. But I’ve known 90% of them. Let me recommend a few to you.” After chatting about this, Chu Yuan patted the robe of his costume and stood up. He turned to Lu Zhen and said, “Zhenzhen, there’s one more thing.”

Chu Yuan had already become intimate with Lu Zhen. Clearly, he treated her as a very trustworthy and beloved junior.

“Please tell me.”

“Do you know about Director Jiang’s new movie?”

As soon as she heard Director Jiang, Lu Zhen knew who it was.

Jiang Wen was the leader of China’s movies. He was known as the “camera genius.” The dozen or so movies he had directed had excellent reputations and were extremely popular internationally. His films had once won the Angel Award for Best International Film and the Best Screenplay. The year Lu Zhen died, this director seemed to be working hard to win the Angel Award for Best Director.

Although Lu Zhen was very famous now and the television dramas she starred in were all popular, she was not famous in the movie industry at the moment.

After all, television dramas and movies could be said to be two different circles. Moreover, there was an invisible chain of disdain between the two circles. It was very difficult for television drama actors to get into the movie industry.

Lu Zhen had also been in the movie industry in her previous life and had made a name for herself. She knew some rules in the movie industry and how difficult it was to stand out in this industry.

This industry was very particular about “origin.”

If an actor’s first movie was to work with a big director, then his future films would basically be big productions.

If an actor’s first movie was a low-cost investment and the director was not famous, then he would be considered a bottom-level actor in the industry.

Unfortunately, Lu Zhen belonged to the latter.

The movie she filmed when she was seventeen, “Finding the Ancients,” was a small-budget investment. The box office was average, and the reputation was average. Therefore, her “origin” in the film industry was not considered noble, and the big directors would almost never look for her.

In her previous life, she had even filmed a popular “Beauty” at the age of 18 and won the Best Actress for Hundred Flowers Award. However, she was able to act in this movie because of the help of a “benefactor”.

That “benefactor” seemed to be the investor of the movie “Beauty” and specially recommended her to the director. That was why she had the chance to audition and finally get this role. Later on, when she filmed “Qinghe Bay” and “The Price”, that “benefactor” helped her secretly. Otherwise, she would definitely not have obtained such good resources.

After Lu Zhen was reborn, many things had deviated from their original development trajectory, so she was not sure if she could still obtain the help of that “benefactor” in this life. She did not expect to rely on others for everything. She wanted to hold her life firmly in her hands.

“Director Jiang’s new movie? I’m not sure about that,” Lu Zhen said humbly.

In fact, she knew about Director Jiang Wen’s new movie. This movie was called ’99 Love Letters’. It was a refreshing romance art film. After the movie was broadcasted back then, the domestic box office exceeded 2 billion yuan and became the most popular romance art film in China’s history.

Seeing Lu Zhen looking at him curiously, Chu Yuan continued, “I played a small role in Director Jiang’s movie. Director Jiang’s movie is almost halfway done, but there’s still an important role that hasn’t been confirmed. Director Jiang has been worried about this recently.”

Jiang Wen’s movie had always been famous for being strictly confidential, so there was no news about Jiang Wen’s movie in the industry at the moment. Lu Zhen had never even heard of the audition.

“What kind of role?” Lu Zhen said calmly, but she was already secretly excited.

Could it be… that character?
