Chapter 529: Does He Have That Much Face?
Wang Shen took the mobile phone, flipped through the address book, found a phone number that he didn't often contact, paused, and immediately dialed it.
Although they are not in contact often, there are condolences every year.
This is because the other party is one of Wang Shen's rare friends after entering the society.
However, as they got married and started a business to run for life, each had their own things to do, and they didn't live in the same city, they slowly didn't contact each other often, and only maintained the condolences that everyone understands.
After all, not everyone is single all the time like Wen Wanshu, except for some pressure at work, they are quite comfortable.
And Wang Shen's male friend, what do you say?
Wang Shen can understand why the other party is reluctant to contact each other often.
is not because Wang Shen offended people and was excluded from the entertainment industry, but because of face.
It's because the other party can't wipe off his face, so he doesn't want to contact his former friends.
Wang Shen's friend, not to mention that he doesn't contact Wang Shen much, even other friends don't have much contact.
What is the reason for this?
A sigh.
Wang Shen's friend is called Xu Liang, who is two years older than Wang Shen.
Moreover, Wang Shen clearly remembers that when Xu Liang got married, the media overwhelmingly released the news that toads ate swan meat.
That's right, whether it is now or before, Xu Liang has always been an actor who is not much famous.
However, his marriage partner is the glamorous and moving A-list star Liu Lu.
In addition, Xu Liang was born in Weimo like Wang Shen, and has always been a young actor who is not in the stream, although he is not rich.
Therefore, at that time, all kinds of hot terms of ridicule and ridicule occupied the entire entertainment news section.
Who would have thought that the popular first-line star Liu Lu would be married to ** Xu Liang?
Why is he?
How can it be?
It can be imagined that as a man, Xu Liang has a lot of pressure in his heart!
At that time, Xu Liang pretended to be dead and did not respond.
Wang Shen guessed that Xu Liang should be patient and want to come out before responding to these.
However, a few years have passed, not only has he not come out, but he has also been labeled as eating soft rice
It's acceptable to be ridiculed by one or two people for eating soft rice, but it is very uncomfortable to be considered by the entire entertainment industry and everyone in the country to eat soft rice.
Therefore, Wang Shen can probably understand that it is precisely for this reason that Xu Liang will not contact his friends much, after all, in this situation, he can no longer raise his head in the surroundings.
To be honest, Wang Shen, as Xu Liang's friend, was also confused when Xu Liang suddenly came together with Liu Lu.
This is because, before that, there was no warning, as if it was a flash marriage.
However, in the entertainment industry, there is obviously no such thing as flash marriage.
And the two are one in the sky and the other in the ground, and it is indeed as reported in the media, the toad eats swan meat
this
Of course, Liu Lu, a first-line female star, also had a lot of black material before she became a first-line star.
All in all, Xu Liang and Liu Lu came together, it may really be a fateful encounter, a legendary true love.
"Why did you call?" the phone was connected, Xu Liang's voice rang, and he asked straight to the point.
Although the two have had little contact in recent years, they were very good friends before, so Wang Shen did not beat around the bush and said: "You are recording a show in Jianghai, right, I will go over tomorrow to help you support the scene." ”
There was a short silence, and then Xu Liang's voice sounded again, "Thank you!"
Wang Shen knew that with Xu Liang's strong character, if he had put it in the past, he would definitely refuse, but now, a simple thank you is helpless.
"Well, I'll be there tomorrow afternoon, and I don't have anything to say about it now. Wang Shen responded.
"You're busy. Goodbye!" Xu Liang responded.
End of call.
There are no false politenesses, there is something to say, that's all.
Cheng Lu stood behind Wang Shen and saw everything in his eyes, so he asked out loud: "Teacher Wang, should we contact the program team in advance?"
"No need!" Wang Shen heard this, and responded lightly, but turned on the computer and watched a variety show.
A variety show called My Favorite Women.
Moreover, this is a show that observes how men deal with the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and builds a harmonious family.
All in all, the show will invite four brave husbands to bring the two women he loves most in his life to spend three precious weeks of living together. The program will truly record the living conditions, family relationships, and ways of getting along with the four groups of families, and through the real records and observations of the daily life of different families, it will arouse the audience's thinking about marriage, family affection and intergenerational communication, convey the concept of harmonious family, and promote positive social energy.
At the same time, this is also a variety show produced by Shonan TV, but considering the itinerary of several groups of guests and other aspects, the recording venue was placed in Jianghai.
Besides, Jianghai is an international metropolis, and there are many variety shows that will put the recording venue here.
Having said that, although this is a show that theoretically spreads positive energy, the reality is that a lot of things are exposed.
For example, Xu Liang's living state, through the show, it can be judged that he has no family status, and even his mother has to look at her daughter-in-law's face from time to time.
This also proves from the side that toads eating swan meat are not so delicious.
Not to mention, there are four groups of celebrity guests, and each group of guests will invite some celebrities in the entertainment industry to show off their social circles.
Of course, Liu Lu also invited her big-name friends in the circle, but in this way, Xu Liang couldn't raise his head even more.
Because from beginning to end, only Xu Liang, a big man, did not invite his friends to come.
It doesn't matter, though.
Because everyone directly ignored Xu Liang.
After all, who doesn't know that Xu Liang is just a small artist who is not very popular, and the friends he contacts are of course some small actors who can't get on the stage, and Shonan TV will not be willing to invite such a small actor.
Besides, if it weren't for Liu Lu's existence, who would know about Xu Liang?
I hate to admit it, but it's so real.
......
Wang Shen watched a few episodes of the show cursory by fast-forwarding, and in a blink of an eye, he knew what he had seen on the entertainment news before.
I have to sigh that sometimes, it is really important to be the right person.
For example, Xu Liang is not only despised and despised for eating soft rice outside, but also has no status inside.
Wang Shen sighed when he thought that Xu Liang was once a very face-saving and self-respecting person.
And Wang Shen has another feeling, that is, this show is telling all the audience through the interaction between the families of four groups of celebrity guests that marriage is a lifelong event, and how important it is to find a good wife and mother-type wife
No matter what this show advocates, on the contrary, Wang Shen feels like this.
In fact, Wang Shen is willing to take the initiative to help Xu Liang grow his cards, not only because the two sides are friends, but also mixed with a trace of sympathy for both men.
In short, gathered into one sentence, life is not easy.
The next day, the recording venue of my favorite women, because they were recording a show, they couldn't make a bad impression in front of the audience, so the family got up early.
A few of them lit up the earliest, and when they got up, they consciously went to buy breakfast and pack it back.
The family sat in the living room and ate breakfast by themselves, Xu Liang secretly glanced at Liu Lu, thought for a long time, and then had the courage to speak: "Lulu, can you give me a hundred yuan?"
As soon as these words came out, Xu Liang's mother He Mengyun subconsciously glanced up at him, and then focused her eyes on Liu Lu.
When Liu Lu heard this, he glared instantly: "The program team gave us a total of only two hundred yuan a day, and a few of us will go out for a walk later, how can we give you half of the money?"
There is also a woman sitting next to Liu Lu, who is Liu Lu's good friend, Lin Yiling, a veteran first-line female artist.
Lin Yiling came over yesterday afternoon, and she will leave after recording today's itinerary.
And Liu Lu did not tell Xu Liang about Lin Yiling's coming, and Xu Liang received a call from Wang Shen before Lin Yiling came.
Therefore, it becomes the situation at hand.
Seeing this, Xu Liang gritted his teeth and continued: "I have a friend who came over and planned to cook a light meal at home to entertain him. ”
In fact, Xu Liang also wanted to lead Wang Shen out to rub it, but the program team only gave a total of 200 yuan a day, and the idea of rubbing it was unrealistic.
"You have friends coming, don't I have friends? Sister Yiling is not my friend? You know that Sister Yiling is coming, why don't you just let your friend come back next time?" Liu Lu said angrily.
Liu Lu's position is obvious, her good friend, and a first-line artist with a very high status in the entertainment industry, came all the way to stand up for her in the show, but she wanted to accommodate others, how is this possible?
Moreover, Liu Lu arranged the itinerary last night and planned to take Lin Yiling out for a walk, so two hundred yuan could only buy some cheap things, how could there be extra money to share with Xu Liang?
Therefore, in Liu Lu's mind, Xu Liang was looking for nothing to do, and sincerely embarrassed her in front of her friends.
Moreover, in Liu Lu's mind, is it important that Xu Liang's friend can have Lin Yiling?
The veteran first-line star has a lot of status in the circle.
Let's ask, such a big name comes to the house as a guest, do you still want to snub people?
So, Liu Lu subconsciously ignored Xu Liang's friend, and didn't think that Xu Liang's friend was on the stage.
In other words, how can you snub a big-name friend with status for the sake of someone who can't get on the stage?
"Then, is fifty yuan okay?" Xu Liang was speechless for a while, and in order not to be embarrassed by the audience, he didn't explain more, but continued to discuss and ask.
"No!" Liu Lu's face was straight, and he refused directly, and then said, "And we'll go out together later, so you call your friend and ask him to come back next time,"
After finishing speaking, his tone softened, and he continued: "I'm not the kind of person who is unreasonable and unreasonable, but today Sister Yiling came all the way and arranged the itinerary, but on the way you said that your friend is coming again, what do you say is this? Besides, I also said, today, let's finish the arranged itinerary and let your friend come over next time? Do you want us to change the itinerary for the sake of your friend who is suddenly coming over? Does he have such a big face?"
To be honest, Liu Lu was indeed a little angry, because Xu Liang's words made her very faceless in front of her friend Lin Yiling.
In particular, there is a layer of meaning in these words, which will make people mistakenly think that Lin Yiling has no cards.
It's an act that doesn't care about her friend at all.
Of course, this is just Liu Lu's own subjective feelings, but he didn't try to understand why Xu Liang asked so suddenly, nor did he think about the problem from Xu Liang's position, let alone the slightest bit of Xu Liang's meaning.
In the eyes of outsiders, this family is led by Liu Lu with his own mind, and there is no room for negotiation.
For example, Xu Liang's several voices were all in a consultative tone, but Liu Lu did not have the slightest intention of asking for specific reasons, she only followed her own ideas, and Xu Liang had to agree with her ideas unconditionally.
In short, a simple and ordinary episode shows a situation where Xu Liang has no family status.
In this case, does anyone sympathize with Xu Liang?
Not really!
Because in the eyes of many people, Xu Liang is a toad who has eaten swan meat, Xu Liang is not worthy of Liu Lu, being able to marry Liu Lu is already a blessing that he has cultivated all his life, and he is not qualified to ask for anything else.
In other words, if Xu Liang has behaviors that do not "understand" Liu Lu's feelings, he is equivalent to a scumbag, and he is a scumbag who is born in happiness and does not know happiness.
In other words, Xu Liang was not qualified to make other requests.
Moreover, according to the media's lace revelations, Xu Liang's house, the luxury car he drives, and other things are Liu Lu's money, so he has been labeled as a soft rice man from beginning to end.
And people with this kind of label will make many people subconsciously look down on them.
For example, Xu Liang has always been looked down upon.
In fact, Xu Liang did have a plan to say that his friend was Wang Shen, but Liu Lu's words made him have scruples.
Xu Liang is not stupid, if he tells the identity of his friend at this time, it is nothing more than slapping Liu Lu and Lin Yiling in the face in front of the camera.
This kind of behavior is like stepping on thunder, looking for death.
Therefore, I tried to say it several times, but in the end I didn't say it.
In short, at this moment, it is certainly impossible to say.
Just when the atmosphere was slightly awkward, there was a knock on the door.
Xu Liang got up and walked over to open the door, and when he saw that it was some members of the other groups of guests, he invited him to come in.
A short greeting, the meaning of which he came.
"Lulu, that's the case, we came here to say that since each group of guests has guests, why don't we combine the money given by the program team to buy ingredients to cook a meal, and then get together to eat. You can also do some games while eating, such as Truth or Dare, etc. An artist with a coffee position equivalent to Liu Lu said loudly.
Liu Lu was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then thought of the sentence Truth or Dare, so she had an understanding, and instantly smiled and asked, "I think it was proposed by the program team, right?"
Zhao Xinyue smiled and said, "I knew that I couldn't hide it from you, it was indeed proposed by the program team, saying that it was for the effect of the show." And our three groups of families have agreed, and you're the only one left. ”
Hearing this, Liu Lu looked at Lin Yiling.
Obviously, Lin Yiling is also very emotionally intelligent, and she will not refuse in such a situation, so she echoed with a smile: "It sounds interesting, or the program team can play." ”
So, Liu Lu also smiled and said: "Okay, today we will have a big family dinner and do it ourselves." ”
In this way, a small episode changed Liu Lu's previously arranged itinerary.
As for whether Xu Liang's opinion needs to be asked in this process, it doesn't matter, because everything is decided by Liu Lu.
