451 I Need your Help with Something (2/2)
”Just give me some time and I will have it prepared.” Auntie He smiled, grinning from ear-to-ear.
Butler Xiao Wang pulled her aside. ”Sir clearly wants to eat the porridge cooked by Lu Man, why are you trying to step into this?”
”Oh right, right, right! I didn't realise it at all.” Auntie He lightly patted her head and pulled Lu Man. ”Come come, I'll bring you to the kitchen.”
Auntie He brought Lu Man into the kitchen and told her where the ingredients, seasonings, etc were placed.
”If there's anything else you need, feel free to tell me.” After Auntie He spoke, she didn't continue disturbing Lu Man.
While Lu Man was cooking porridge, her cell phone suddenly rang.
Taking out the cell phone from her pocket, Lu Man was surprised to see Sun Yiwu calling her.
Lu Man then quickly answered the call. ”Director Sun?”
”Hey Lu Man, it's me,” Sun Yiwu said, laughing. ”I heard that you've started school? How is it? Have you gotten used to it?”
”It's not bad,” Lu Man said as lowered the fire on the stove, ”After having some proper, systematic educational lessons at schools, I feel that there is more and more to learn about performance. The more I study, the more I realize that there are so many things that I didn't know. With a teacher's guidance and teaching, I feel different from being just like a wild grass.”
”True.” Sun Yiwu expressed his agreement and advised, ”Don't make assumptions just because these past few years all the people graduating from National Film Academy are beautiful and have high popularity, outshining all other students. In fact, a film academy will always be an educational institution, the instructor's skills are actually completely on-par with theatre academies and the professors there are also rather professional.”
”Right.” Lu Man was surprised to know that Sun Yiwu knew that she gave up on Drama Academy and changed to Film Academy at the last minute.
”I have called you right now because there's something I need your help with. However, I'm not forcing you to agree, you can consider it and see how it goes,” Sun Yiwu explained his reasons for calling out of the blue.
”What's the matter?” Lu Man asked.
”I have a close friend, a younger bro, Ji Cheng, do you know?”
”I know. He's a very famous Wushu celebrity.” Lu Man nodded.
”That's right. He's currently filming a movie called 'Red Tiger'. He was originally an actor, so this is his first time as a director. He is a newbie when it comes to directing, so the investors don't really have much confidence in him, and thus he doesn't have much investments. Therefore, he tries to scrimp and save as much as he can and plan to spend all his money on production. Also, most probably he won't hire any bigshot celebrities.” 'Xiao' also means small/little, so it also means Little Butler Wang.
