The giants and traffic officials announced

Chapter 41

After the banquet began, the guests found their seats one after another, some sat down, and some walked around to meet old friends they hadn't seen for a long time.Reporters from various magazines also took their interviews and photos back to their business trips, and the red carpet outside the door was suddenly unbelievably quiet.

"Finally quiet!"

Bai Yan dragged Lu Zhihui upstairs. Of course, he also took two snacks from the side of the champagne tower.

"Thanks to you just now, otherwise I would definitely be on the hot search again."

Lu Zhihui put his elbows on the railing, "The reporter's questioning just now was really too much, and I don't like it either."

Bai Yan leaned over as if seeing a giant panda, and sighed: "It's rare."

"What's rare?"

"I thought you had experienced many battles, and there was nothing you didn't like."

"It's still there. It's just that I have experienced more things, and I have the ability and space to deal with things I don't like."

"Well, that makes sense. So I still suffer from my lack of knowledge."

Bai Yan stuffed the snack into his mouth, chewed and said, "But we have nothing to do when we encounter this kind of unprofessional reporter. It's useless to report to his company. They must love this kind of production that can anger celebrities." news people."

Lu Zhihui's eyes dimmed, and he asked thoughtfully, "Have you often encountered this kind of situation before?"

Bai Yan briefly recalled: "It was okay when I was not famous. At that time, no one interviewed me at all. I saw other people standing in front of the microphone, and a dozen cameras were shooting at each other. The reporter could never finish asking. Race against the clock to ask a few more questions, I am so envious. But then it really became popular, and people will shoot you and ask you all the time, so it seems boring. If you meet that kind of reporter who has no bottom line, you can ask anything , What's 'selling ass', 'hidden rules', compared with them just now, it's nothing but nothing."

"Do you know which company they are?" Lu Zhihui twirled the ring on his ring finger.

Bai Yan didn't know what was going on in his mind, he just thought that he was simply chatting, so he didn't say anything:

"I didn't pay attention, why do you remember these things that spoil your mood? And if you are a celebrity, you have to bear these things. Since you choose this path and don't want to bear the hardships and hardships on the road, it's a bit unreasonable."

As he said that, he approached happily, and raised his brisk eyebrows, "Otherwise, how could I earn so much money, right?"

If he turned his face and was about to be sentenced to prison, then at least Bai Yan would have no term.After all, he interprets in different ways every day, how to make hair blown in one second and sand sculpture in the next.

For his shocking reversal, Lu Zhihui has changed from being surprised at the beginning to accepting it calmly.

His eyes fell on the mousse on his lips, he raised his hand, and gently wiped it away.

"How old are you, but you still eat like this all the time."

The voice is low and deep, not a rough sound like a beast, just like a bell in a deep valley, deep but without any noise, it makes Bai Yan feel a quilt-like warmth, and in the gap between the warmth, a strong love drown.

"Is anyone taking pictures?" Bai Yan asked in a low voice - he felt that this action was too intimate.

Lu Zhihui nodded solemnly, "Yes."

"Oh—then"

He grabbed Lu Zhihui's hand that was about to withdraw, and licked the little bit of mousse on his thumb with the tip of his tongue.

"How about it, is it intimate enough?"

Lu Zhihui curled his lips, "Yes."

Chen Xiaoxin in the corner was not surprised by this scene. Anyway, his entertainer's acting skills are good, and the artist's husband is even better at acting. These are small scenes.What he cares about is:

Brother, you have eaten so many snacks, how many calories are there! ! ! ! !

In such a grand banquet, besides blessing the newcomers, the attendees also have a very important purpose - to meet old friends.

Before Bai Yan broke up with Zhang Xuan, he was either filming or doing brand activities. If he could sleep for more than seven hours, he had to be grateful, and he almost had no time for himself.Therefore, although he met some friends at work, he hardly had time to hang out in private.He is busy when he is free, and he is not idle when he is free.Now that I finally got the chance, I naturally want to catch up on the old days.

Of course, Lu Zhihui's "friends" were also included.

"Sir, look who this is."

At that time, Bai Yan was bored admiring the couple dancing to the violin music in the center of the dance floor, eating snacks while watching, when Lu Zhihui suddenly stopped him from behind.He thought it was his fan, so he just met Lu Zhihui and took a group photo for autograph, but this turning around made him freeze on the spot.

"Liu, Director Liu Ji!" He almost choked on the champagne in his mouth.

Liu Ji, the top three famous directors in China today, has won the Golden Lion Award and the Golden Bear Award for the films he directed. Three years ago, he was shortlisted for the Oscar for "The Third Eye". The film is still Liu Ji himself, who has a very high reputation both at home and abroad.

Lu Zhihui could only blink when he saw him flustered, and gave Liu Ji an apologetic smile, "He has always admired you."

"Yes, yes!" Bai Yan put down his wine glass, wiped his body twice before stretching out his hand awkwardly, "Director Liu Ji, I, I am your fan, and I watch every movie of yours."

Liu Ji was wearing a comfortable Chinese tunic suit with peaceful eyes.Even though he is 45 years old, he still maintains the spirit of youth.He is also easy-going, not arrogant because of the numerous awards, and even generously shook hands with him.

"Hello, is that you Bai Yan? I know you. You are well-known in China."

Bai Yan bowed his head in embarrassment, "Thank you."

It's true that he is famous, but it doesn't seem to be of much use to word of mouth. He has been named and criticized by big directors more than once, relying on traffic to make bad movies and destroying the market.

Liu Ji withdrew his hand and continued, "I don't think you have many works, but I think your performance in "Outside the Raksha City" is very contagious, so I have always had an impression of you."

For a moment, Bai Yan's eyes seemed to have a flash of light——

"Outside Rakshasa City" is his only work with a score of more than 8 points. At that time, he was just a little bit famous, and he didn't accept the kind of commercial films with high pay and short cycle, and he didn't shoot any logical ones to help Zhang Xuan's company turnaround. It is a low-cost TV series, and after the performance of "Outside the Raksha City", it received rave reviews and accumulated a considerable amount of goodwill.

But the box office of this movie was not high, and it didn't win any awards, so in the new round of film and television drama bombing, "Outside Rakshasa City" almost disappeared, and only a few hardcore fans knew about it .

"Really?" Bai Yan exclaimed, "That movie was the first big-screen work I starred in, and it's been a long time."

Liu Ji smiled tolerantly, "A good work will never become obsolete."

Bai Yan's eyes turned red. This was the feeling that the flowers he raised that no one cares about were suddenly approved by the court gardener.Good works are never out of date, this sentence has never been said to him.From the boss to the assistant in the company, they all urged him to continue to pick up new scripts. Even the short charging time before joining the group after finishing the filming would be fully occupied by Hezhong's business activities.Almost no one discussed the quality of the characters with him, and the artistic pursuit of the work.

And now someone has said this, and told him that what he has forgotten in the corner is a "good work".And this person is still the idol he admired for many years.

"Mr. Liu, thank you, really thank you!"

Liu Ji's gaze fell on the tears in his eyes, and he felt that these eyes were very beautiful and could be shaped into a certain character in his mind, so he came up with an idea, "I heard from Zhihui that you haven't accepted a new script recently, Yeah?"

Bai Yan was stunned for a moment, and replied truthfully: "Yes, due to some reasons, the scenes that were supposed to be included in the group were not filmed, so the schedule is relatively empty now."

"Oh, so that's the case." Liu Ji continued to ask, "I have a notebook here, are you interested in reading it?"

boom!

It was as if fireworks had exploded in Bai Yan's heart, and it suddenly became bright - the director asked him if he was interested, could he not hear such an obvious hint? !

"Of course!"

Liu Ji seemed to have expected his ecstatic yet depressed expression, turned to Lu Zhihui and said, "Then, Zhihui, can I borrow your husband for a while? Let's talk about the script."

Lu Zhihui nodded, raised his hand as a gesture of invitation, "Uncle Liu, please come."

Bai Yan managed to suppress the agitation in his heart, but his excitement easily made him lose sight of things. For example, he only remembered the champagne he forgot on the table when he walked out.The big director chatted with him about the script, everyone has wine glasses in their hands, but he has empty hands, isn't that plausible!Fortunately, Lu Zhihui was careful and asked the waiter to bring another glass.

Uh - thank you sir, save my dog's life!

The hotel occupies a large area, and there is enough space for those who want to connect with each other. There are also small gardens that are slightly secluded, so that people can calm down and chat.

"I also saw this script by chance. I think the characters in it are both absurd and real. It's a very good story."

They sat down not far from the fountain, and Liu Ji looked at the mist-like water vapor splashing above the fountain with long-distance eyes, as if the story in the script was staged in this mist, illusory and artistic.

The way Bai Yan looked at him, with such a concentrated and pure demeanor, aroused his curiosity about the story, "Can I have the honor to hear this story?"

"Of course." Liu Ji slowly shook his wine glass, "However, I need to make it clear to you in advance that I have talked with different actors before you. So, our communication this time is just to see if there is any The possibility of cooperation does not mean that it is you who are finalized."

Bai Yan pursed his lips, "I understand."

Just "seeing the possibility of cooperation" is something that many people can't even dream of.
