Chapter 30 It's hard to walk at night, it's easy to walk in a group

Back in T City from New York, even Lulu was tired. As soon as I filmed, I would disrupt my sleep routine, and I had a time difference when I just returned to China, so I naturally had insomnia again. Aunt Fang made a big table full of dishes in order to welcome them back, she ate a lot, she couldn't sleep anyway, she simply got up, opened the curtains, and there were street lights on outside, very quiet.

She likes quiet, but she is afraid of quiet, as if there is only herself left in the world, she is not afraid of the dark, but she is afraid that this vacuum-like silence will swallow herself and her memories.

The filming in the past few months has immersed her in Shen Min's world and has not thought about him anymore.

has been in the industry for so long, and Yan Zhuanxin does not have any feelings for the actor industry. At first, she decided to play Xiao Xia, but because the words of Ran Ning and Qu Fei moved her, and she desperately wanted to escape from the world at that time, so she hid in Xiao Xia's world and let herself cry or laugh behind her back. Maybe it was that time that she decided to enter this circle, so that she could escape from Yan Zhuanxin's life from time to time, and that little bit of selfishness.

She loved him and wanted to have the light, to stand at a height where she could stand side by side with him, and maybe then he would come back to her.

She hated him and wanted to have the light, to stand where he could see it, or so that he would regret leaving him in the first place.

But all this is just a momentary thought of her at a certain time, more often, she just wants to escape, only when she is immersed in other people's world during filming, she can not think crankily and not be sad.

When it was almost dawn, she fell asleep in a daze, and when she woke up, her head hurt a little, and she went downstairs after washing.

Lulu can eat and sleep, even jet lag is not a problem for her, and when she went downstairs, she was already sitting there watching entertainment news with great energy, which made Lianxin both envious and admired.

After the broadcast of "Providence", the combination of He Hao and Huang Zhuan Xin became the biggest selling point and highlight of the show. She's been filming, and most of the publicity work has been on Hercules and the other actors, who often mention Hurdles, and the short films she's shot before have come in handy.

Jolene helped her take an endorsement with He, and waited for her to return to China. Since the promotion period of "Providence", there have been many advertisements and endorsements coming to the door, hoping that the two of them can pick it up together, and Jolene returned home early from the United States to finally decide which one to take.

Jolene never repeats and casually endorses, and she rarely asks about the specific content, when she chose Jolene, she decided to trust her.

Before the jet lag came back, he joined up with He Chen and began to shoot the plane photos and commercials needed for endorsements, but they haven't seen each other for a long time, and the tacit understanding between the two is still the same.

During the filming process, the media came to visit the class, the two were interviewed together, and they also made an appointment to have dinner together after the end, in fact, Qiao Lin and Brother Peng were also there, but only the two of them were published in the photos published the next day, which contributed to the second round of broadcast of "Providence".

In fact, the story of "Providence" is very old-fashioned, but Xiaoyi, who loves the wrong person, met Shaotian at the most difficult time, she refused his help, but he was attracted to her, so a series of stories were triggered.

Xiao Yi played by Cinderella transformed from a queen, she is imperfect, but very real, and Shaotian played by He Xu changed from an indifferent young master to love, he was arrogant, but once again proved to the world the truth that love can change a person.

Such a story is not new because of the star effect caused by the joining of He Ye and Zhu Zhuanxin, coupled with other stars who came to make cameos and a brilliant soundtrack, from the beginning it was just an obsession with loyal fans, but also won the recognition of some mass audiences, and the ratings were generally good.

The ratings of "Our Love in the Starry Sky" and "How Beautiful Love Is", which were released before and after, were far inferior to "Providence". The former only saw a sharp increase in ratings when Cheng Shuo appeared in the number of episodes, and the rest of the time was relatively low, and the call on the Internet that Cheng Shuo should be allowed to play the male lead was even more embarrassing to the male lead in the play. The latter is played by grim and newcomer Pang Yu, in fact, grim has also been more popular in recent years, but it is still much worse than He Yu, as for Pang Yu, it should be regarded as an unexpected gain.

I don't know when, there were messages on the Internet that Pang Yu's character in "How Beautiful Love is", especially her side face is very familiar, and it didn't take long for someone to mention the name of Yan Lianxin.

On the other hand, the message area of "Providence" is appreciative of the fact that Xuan Zhuan Xin can play an ordinary role unusually, and he is the real strength of the acting school.

She never looked at these reports, but Lulu paid attention to the news about Pang Yu's resemblance, and then told Jolene.

In fact, Qiao Lin had noticed this a long time ago, and she felt that something was wrong when she first saw Pang Yu, and she was even more defensive after knowing that she was Su Hua's artist. She privately learned about Pang Yu's situation before her debut, and with her original photo, Qiao Lin immediately understood Su Hua's intentions, and she had to secretly calculate.

It is no accident that Su Hua can sit firmly in the position of gold medal agent in Starlight International, and if there is a clue to the matter, it will be easy to figure out the rest of the matter. At the beginning, the leak of "Providence" didn't make her suspicious, her time for doing publicity in Xinyuan was not short, and she had a lot of contact, she understood that Xinyuan would not do this kind of self-demolition to fight the gimmick, but so many people come and go every day, no one dares to guarantee where the news will leak, it's just an ordinary play, who will spend energy to do first-level secrecy work.

In this way, Su Hua deliberately wanted to rush the schedule to arrange Pang Yu's debut at the same time as "Providence", so he calculated all this. This is not only a ploy to kill two birds with one stone, except for Su Hua, who would have thought of using such an extreme method to push a newcomer to the top.

Qiao Lin sat in her office, in terms of time and qualifications, she was indeed no match for Su Hua's famous agents in the industry, but she always remembered the scene when she personally said that she would choose herself to be her agent, and she even rejected Huo Zhen, the gold medal agent of Xinyuan Media, and chose herself, not to mention that it was not easy for them to support each other along the way over the years, and she would not allow anyone to do anything that hurt her no matter what.

Maybe she won't be able to protect her forever, but at least she'll do her best.

Jolene came out for an internship before graduating from college, and even worked for a long time in chores, and then after graduation, she got a chance to join Xinyuan Media to do publicity, and the excitement and excitement were quickly replaced by overload of work and huge pressure and competition, but she refused to take a step back.

She has been doing this for several years, and the hardships and sorrows are only known to her heart, but she never says it, and she doesn't need anyone's sympathy or pity.

She doesn't know how she chooses herself, and she hasn't asked until now, there are many ways for artists and agents to get along, but the combination of Jolene and Zhuan Xin is definitely the least common and even bizarre.

In the beginning, Jolene always felt that she couldn't see through the mind of this young girl. She has very low requirements, she is never picky in life, and she mostly obeys her own arrangements in her work, but if she is unwilling to do something, no matter what, she will not agree.

She doesn't ask about the salary and doesn't want to hype, she likes to stay alone quietly, Jolene knows that anyone who works hard to do something will always have a purpose, she can see that she doesn't like her current life and identity, so she doesn't understand why she has to work so hard and so hard.

Jolene, who never talked much, finally couldn't help but ask her once, she didn't speak for a long time, and when Jolene even thought she was angry, she suddenly said: "I really don't like everything now, but I need this, I need it to confirm one thing in my heart." Maybe one day I'll let it go, but now I don't want to say, if you were still with me then, I'll tell you. ”

Qiao Lin told her in a firm tone: "Zhuan, you are not what everyone sees now, I will wait until the day when your original appearance appears, there are some things I don't want to say, but I dare to use my life to vouch, I, Jolene, will never do anything to be sorry for you, so no matter what you hear in the future, please believe me, I will definitely accompany you to the end, for you and for myself." ”

She didn't know what she was thinking at that time, but she really thought so, not angry. Yes, she used to refuse to accept help from her family because of her anger, but that was all in the past, and she didn't have so much confidence to do everything well, but she had enough faith.

This circle has always been the survival of the fittest, she left the job that she was not easy to get familiar with and adapt, and worked hard to do a good job as an agent, in such a competitive industry, there is not much time for you to adapt to the run-in.

She also almost dragged her into the water because of her inexperience and being framed, but at the last moment, she relied on the connections she had accumulated when she was doing propaganda to resolve it in time. This kind of thing doesn't happen just once, and it's impossible for such a mistake not to be criticized, but the Lian Zhuan next to her is calm.

"The agent of actor Sui Ye, the hot gold medal agent in the circle, Ye Lanxin, used to be Chenhui's plan, and Ye Lanxin, who had never been in contact with artist agency, turned to his agent because his cousin Sui Ye graduated from university and did not film. At that time, Chenhui Media, artist brokerage still accounted for a large proportion of the company's marketing, and outsiders don't know how to overcome obstacles along the way, but it is such a combination with no acting experience and no brokerage experience, in just three years, Sui Ye has become one of the first-line students in China, and then entered the big screen and won the best newcomer and best supporting actor all the way until he won the best actor. ”

Sitting in the passenger seat of the car, Zhu Xin said all this lightly, and finally raised her eyes to look at Qiao Lin, "I don't have that much ambition, all I need is someone who will sincerely accompany me on this journey", she turned her face to look into the distance, pretending not to see the corners of Qiao Lin's somewhat moist eyes," Sometimes I have to believe that there is really a fate between people, entering this line is the biggest gamble in my life, I should have faced it myself, I didn't ask your opinion to pull you in, if you regret it now, I am still grateful for your previous company. ”

Jolene suddenly smiled, she started the car, "It's hard to walk in the dark, it's easy to walk together." Hearing her say this, she leaned her head back on the seat, "Someone is driving, I can sleep peacefully for a while." Jolene closed her eyes hard, didn't say anything more, and stepped on the gas pedal to leave the parking lot.

After his debut, Yan Zhuanxin filmed one work after another, from Xiao Xia, who was stubborn and insistent for love, to Yilan, who was trapped and desperate for love, plus the distressing Wenwen and Meng Xin, who couldn't cry or laugh.

Yan Zhuanxin on the screen is becoming more and more mature and resolute, and she has successfully walked out of a path of her own style in this circle, and even created the so-called "Zhuanxin effect". Jolene is also more and more comfortable with various affairs, and she gets along with her more like a partner and partner than Lulu and Juan, who gives her enough trust and she reciprocates wholeheartedly.

After filming "Behind the Lies", she had to rest for a while as usual, and ended her endorsement work with He Hao, she needed to recover her sleep and work and rest.

Qiao Lin took a statistical table, and "Providence" came to an end, both the ratings and word-of-mouth were better than expected, and the company and investors were very satisfied.

She didn't look at the statistical table at all, these have never been important to her, fate is fair, she has nothing in family and love, and finally has been rewarded in her career, many opportunities that others can't ask for are easy for her to get, and many other people's headaches and worries are always resolved for her, but what she wants but never gets, and a few people can see it.

She went to dinner with the creator of "Providence", and it was late when it ended, Lulu called Jolene but no one answered, and later asked the driver to find out that she had drunk too much because of socializing with investors.

Having already changed her clothes, she asked Lulu to call the driver back and take them to Jolene's house. She looked at Qiao Lin lying on the toilet and vomiting, and the picture suddenly reminded her of Ran Rong, who kept vomiting because of the stimulation of the treatment drug, but there was still a pungent smell of wine in front of her.

Jolene looked up after throwing up and saw her, "Why are you here? What time is it and you haven't been back, Lulu-"

Lulu helped her up, took the water cup in one hand and the paper in the other, and said, "I'm not leaving, we're here to take care of you, you can't be alone like this." ”

Before Jolene could refute, she threw up again, and the two of them took care of her almost all night to make her not so uncomfortable.

It was almost dawn when Jolene finally fell asleep, and she suddenly felt sad when she looked at her. has been in the industry for so long, it's not that she doesn't know how difficult it is for an agent to do, but behind the light of the artist, she is in awe because of the power of life and death that dominates the development of the artist, but who knows that they have to pay no less than the artist.

In the past few years, she knows very well what Jolene has done for herself, and she is very grateful that Jolene can tolerate her willfulness and respect her choices, but there are some things that she can't completely let go.

Xinyuan has many well-known agents in the circle, and even the famous Huo Zhen threw an olive branch to her, but she chose Qiao Lin, who has no brokerage experience, and the cooperation for several years proved that the choice was correct at that time.

In this somewhat morbid circle, full of glitz and impetuousness, Jolene did her best to create a space for her to be as clean as possible, at least never forcing her to do things she was unwilling to do, for which she never mentioned her own grievances. After a long time, there seems to be a tacit understanding between each other, and no one will take the initiative to say anything, but they all understand it in their hearts.

They are heterogeneous partners, they can't be copied, and there will be no more opportunities like that to make another Jolene happy.

When Jolene woke up, it was noon the next day, and Lulu and Lulu were asleep by the bedside and on the couch. She slept very lightly, and she woke up as soon as Jolene moved, "You're awake, I'll pour you a glass of water." She got up and went to pour water, and Lulu woke up when she heard the commotion, stretched and said that she was going to buy porridge and went out.

She poured a glass of water for Jolene, Jolene looked at her and stopped, drank some water and said, "Juan, you don't have to say anything, you don't have to think too much and don't feel guilty, this is not only your career, but also my career, we are both prosperous and lossy." ”

She knew that Jolene deliberately said this to reassure her, even if there was a tie-up of interests, she still believed that Jolene did those things that she could not do, not only for her, but also for herself.

She has always felt that her luck is really good as far as entering the industry is concerned, whether it is the director or the seniors, she has hardly encountered anything too difficult, of course, she has heard the doubts and slanders behind her, and she has been wronged, but compared to those more excessive and even dirty things, the things she encountered are nothing at all.

She is not here, she can see a lot of things very openly, and she rarely pays attention to what the people around her are doing, and in the past few years, Jolene has done everything for herself or for this so-called career, she can't help but pay attention to it.

She always feels that what she wants to do, no matter how much it costs, is a matter of course, but the people around her do not have this obligation to accompany you to be wronged, just like when she was very young when she learned the piano, because she was too hard and played with her temper, her mother told her very seriously: learning the piano is your own business, and you can't overdo how hard you pay, but you are not qualified to lose your temper with the people around you because you work too hard, including your parents.

Since then, she has deeply remembered that you have to do your own things, others help you with your duty, and you don't have any qualifications and positions to ask others to do something for you unconditionally.

That's why she always has a sense of gratitude to Jolene, Lulu, and the fans. The purpose of her coming here is not simple, the better they treat her, the more she feels uneasy from the bottom of her heart, she tries to repay a little bit, but in exchange for the people who love her are better for her, and because of this, she can not care about the harm outside of this.

In the past, she didn't have much contact with strangers, and she was not very willing to deal with unfamiliar people, and she was not good at communicating with people. Later, when Qiao Lin found out, she was angry that they didn't take Zhuan in their eyes, and she felt sorry for her and didn't know how to take care of herself, so she finally comforted her.

It's hard to say 'no' to people she knows, and people who are familiar with her know that she has time to rest after every filming, and when she has time, people invite her to play a scene, and it is difficult to refuse when the phone calls her directly.

She was more impressed by the fact that she had met an actor who became popular overnight and was self-aggrandizing, he didn't know where he heard the phrase 'Zhuan Wang Opera', and arrogantly asked the director and screenwriter to increase his rivalry with Zhuan Lian, and even put forward some excessive requirements. Because she is resting, she is rich in time, and she is relatively easy to speak, so as long as the role needs, she basically accepts it.

Jolene was talking about her contract for her next drama at the time, so she didn't accompany her to the set, and after the planned time, she called Lulu and learned that Zhuan was still filming and went over in person, and she saw that the actor who was blatantly adding his own drama was cleverly blocked by Zhuan, and she understood what was going on at the time. She negotiated with the crew here, and over there, she used the filming plot to teach the actor a small lesson, Lulu couldn't hold back and didn't dare to laugh on the side, and at the end, Jolene and Zhuan said goodbye seriously before leaving, and the three of them couldn't help laughing when they arrived at Jolene's car.

In the past three years, the three of them have worked together to get to where they are today, and they have today's popular actress Dan Zhuanxin, the well-known Qiao Lin in the industry, and Lulu, the happiest assistant.

On the way back, she suddenly smiled when she saw Lulu talking and stopped, she knew what Lulu was thinking, and Lulu saw her smile and knew that she understood what she wanted to say, so she laughed too, as if every time they understood each other's minds without words.

For the next few days, Aunt Fang made soup and porridge every day, and Lulu and Lulu took turns calling Jolene to ask her to come over for dinner.

In the evening, Qiao Lin patted her stomach after eating and said, "Aunt Fang, it's only been a few days, you can see how much meat has grown in my belly, but you can't eat like this anymore." ”

Aunt Fang said while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks: "You and Zhuan are too thin, take advantage of the rest to quickly make you fatter, but you can't work and ignore your body." ”

Lulu said on the side: "Aunt Fang, are you saying that I don't need to raise it to be fat enough!"

"I didn't say that. Aunt Fang carried the dishes and chopsticks into the kitchen.

She suddenly felt that this kind of life should be called happiness, there are many kinds of happiness, and her expectations have been disappointed, but the warmth she has now is not a kind of happiness?

She remembered what Kim Jung-ho said, to cherish what you have in front of you. What she has at this moment is happiness.
