Chapter 71 Making Friends with Louis Koo, Another Short-Haired Beauty
The unremarkable-looking young man opposite is one of He Xi's "talent show templates," named Gu Tianle, born in 1970, four years older than He Xi.
However, in the entertainment industry, age does not represent status; fame does.
Just like Lei Ge in "iPartment", even after being weaned, he is still the boss of the crew. He has a special seat that can't be sat in casually, and even his aunt has to call him "brother".
He Xi is still far from Lei Ge's level, but he has already played a major villain in a theatrical film, which has aroused media discussion and gained him a certain degree of fame.
He's at least a movie star.
For someone like Louis Koo, who can only temporarily work as an extra in TV dramas and play male leads in music videos, he's like a brother.
The two did not know each other before, so Gu Tianle simply greeted him politely and then prepared to stand like a lackey to make way for He Xi.
To everyone's surprise, He Xi also spoke with a smile.
"Good morning, Brother Le!"
The call of "Brother Le" completely stunned Gu Tianle, who stood there dumbfounded, pointing his finger at his own nose.
"Brother Xi, you...you know me?"
"Um, I'm just a minor character, you can just call me Louis Koo, I can't accept that!"
"And could you give me your autograph?"
Seeing the fearful and pleading expression on Gu Tianle's face, He Xi shook her head helplessly.
"I'm 19 years old this year. You look older than me, so it's only natural for me to call you Brother Le."
"I've filmed a music video here before, and the director mentioned you. He said you're a senior in the music video field, you've filmed a lot, you have a great sense of the camera, and you have a star quality. He told me to learn a lot from you."
"I even watched your performance from afar and learned from you!"
"I wanted to say hello to you then, but you were too busy, so I didn't get a chance."
"Besides, I'm just a newcomer who just played a supporting role. I was just lucky to meet Brother Jie."
"With your looks and talent, I'm sure it won't be long before you're playing the male lead. Then you'll be the real deal!"
"How about we both call each other 'brother'? Or you can call me Xi-zai and I'll call you Gu-zai, and we can just be friends."
"You choose for yourself."
Gu Tianle scratched his head blankly.
"So, you've also filmed music videos, and we've met before?"
"It's a pity we didn't get to know each other back then, what a shame."
He Xi watched him scratch his head and chuckled inwardly.
This time, I'm finally not the one scratching my head, and I don't have to be forced to revise the article. It's great!
"It's not too late to get to know each other now. If you're having trouble choosing, I'll offer to make the choice for you. Is that okay, Louis Koo?"
"OK, OK! Xi-zai."
Gu Tianle is only 23 years old. Although he has made mistakes and been to prison, and his personality has matured a bit, he is still a young man.
The two quickly became familiar with each other and started talking much more casually.
"Xi-zai, I just watched 'Tai Chi Master' last night. Your look was so cool, and your action scenes were amazing! You must have real kung fu skills, right? How long have you been learning?"
What's Jay Chou's personality like? Is he easy to get along with?
"I heard that Ying-jie and you were very affectionate on the red carpet at the premiere. Are you two dating?"
"besides……"
After a barrage of questions reminiscent of a fan meeting, the two finally got down to their work for the day.
"Xi-zai, what brings you here today? Are you filming? Which big star are you working with this time?"
He Xi smiled and shook her head.
"You're here to film a music video, what about you?"
Louis Koo raised an eyebrow, his expression becoming much more excited.
"A music video! What a coincidence, me too! Who's the actor you worked with this time? And the one from last time, maybe I know them!"
"Although I haven't acted much, I'm a professional at shooting music videos. I know many of the female leads in my music videos."
"I can introduce you to someone beforehand to build rapport!"
At this time, Louis Koo had just been released from the reformatory. After leaving his past behind, he switched careers and became a male model, shooting a large number of male photos and music videos.
He was nicknamed "The Little Prince of Karaoke".
His image appears in many music videos, especially in karaoke backing tracks.
He has indeed worked with many actresses, including but not limited to Huang Jiying, Wen Songxian, Meng Jiahui, and Jian Peiyun.
Including the music video for "Soft Heart" that He Xi filmed with Vivian Chow, the original timeline was also filmed by Louis Koo.
The music video that He Xi is going to shoot this time is also a resource that was snatched from his original timeline.
"Yes, last time we worked together, it was with Vivian Chow, and this time the female lead is Nadia Chan..."
He Xi's words immediately silenced Gu Tianle.
Why are all the people I work with young, inexperienced girls, while He Xi's side is full of older, more powerful women?
Vivian Chow needs no introduction.
Chen Songling, who entered the industry at the age of 15 after winning the "Sally Yeh Singing Contest" held by TVB, was already a leading actress at the age of 22.
She starred in many popular dramas such as "The Legend of Shushan" and "Zhong Wuyan in 92", and is very popular.
They've released seven or eight albums, a feat that Gu Tianle could only dream of.
He works with Jet Li in movies and with Vivian Chow and Nadia Chan in music videos. Xi Zai is so lucky!
Gu Tianle inexplicably felt a desire to get closer to He Xi and absorb some of her good fortune.
Seeing Gu Tianle's obvious increased enthusiasm, He Xi smiled as well.
With the seemingly ordinary yet warm-hearted Principal Koo secured, connections on Hong Kong Island finally began to expand.
Wait a minute, thinking about the phrase "warm-hearted and kind-hearted" in front of Louis Koo suddenly feels a bit strange.
……
After chatting with Gu Tianle for a while and agreeing to have dinner together that evening, He Xi turned around and went to her filming location, where she also met the big star she was about to work with, Chen Songling.
At first glance, I felt the nose was a bit big and the lips were a bit thick...
(Has anyone ever confused her with Leung Siu-bing?)
However, her smile and temperament are very infectious, making it easy for people to develop a liking for her and unconsciously fall in love with her.
In the original timeline, He Xi met her as Lin Zhenlie in the 94 TV series "Laughing at the Wind and Clouds".
I thought this short-haired woman was very pretty back then. Although she had a somewhat awkward personality, she was very endearing.
In the end, Lin Zhenlie was accidentally burned to death in the fire. The scene of Bao Wenlong, with his dog, looking depressed in front of her tombstone brought He Xi to tears.
I really wanted to get a golden retriever back then...
"Hello, Sister Ling, I'm Xizai, nice to meet you."
Suppressing her wild thoughts, He Xi greeted Chen Songling politely.
Chen Songling's thick lips immediately parted, revealing eight perfect pearly teeth, her eyebrows and eyes curved like a painting.
"Hi Xizai, I just watched 'Tai Chi Master,' your acting was amazing! Could you give me your autograph?"
He Xi was stunned.
No, I only played a supporting role in a movie, and a popular TVB actress asked me for her autograph?
Is this the river?
