Chapter 697: Model Couple [One Change]
Qiong Yao came out of Lin Youlun's office with a gloomy face, there were still people in the office next to her who wanted to come over to her for an autograph, and when she saw this expression, she retreated in her heart.
Just when everyone was speculating whether Qiong Yao had a broken down conversation with Lin Youlun, Ajie chased him out of Lin Youlun's office.
"Ms. Chen, you forgot to take your bag!"
Qiong Yao stopped, turned around and angrily took the bag from Applejack's hand.
"Please tell Mr. Lin, I agreed to the conditions he offered, and the gambling contract, I hope he won't regret it when the time comes."
Qiong Yao dropped this sentence and turned around and entered the elevator.
Looking at the elevator door that had closed, Applejack shrugged and turned back to Lin Youlun's office.
With his desk facing back to his office, Lim offers sweeping views of Victoria Harbour from two large floor-to-ceiling windows, with dozens of skyscrapers carving out Hong Kong's iconic skyline.
"Someone sent away?"
"Ms. Chen agreed to your boss's conditions, but she seemed very unhappy when she left." Applejack replied.
"This woman is very vindictive." Lin Youlun didn't take this matter to heart, but just said this lightly.
"Boss, I don't understand, although Qiong Yao is very famous, her romance novels are not as popular as before, and those female readers who were fascinated by her novels have now become grandmothers, and they don't believe in that kind of love that wants to die or live anymore...... Boss, you accommodate her like this, if Zhou You and Zhou Linggang know about this matter, will they have any opinions in their hearts? ”
Applejack has always had doubts about Lin Youlun's approach. I took this opportunity to ask.
Lin Youlun turned the senior chair back. Looking at Applejack, she explained, "Grandma has time to look at the TV every day. They are actually the real support for the ratings, although Qiong Yao's romance novels are outdated, they are still a big market in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the series of TV series "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" is aimed at the mainland market, where popular culture has just started, Qiong Yao's set should be very easy to earn a lot of tears from mainland audiences. ”
"I think the two TV series you handed over to Zhou You and Zhou Linggang to shoot can also play a role in opening up the mainland market, and the effect may be better...... In contrast, Qiong Yao's side is a little redundant. On the basis of the facts, Applejack praised Lin Youlun without a trace.
"You said that the premise of this situation is that those two TV series must be able to successfully pass the review and enter the mainland. And Qiong Yao's TV series has no such concerns at all, her novels have always only talked about the love between men and women, and it will never be related to politics, and it is very simple to pass the review. ”
Lin Youlun stood up from the senior chair and continued while cleaning up the papers on the table: "Now you understand why I want to accommodate her so much, right? And from another point of view, all the TV series she shoots are adaptations of her own novels, and since it is her own work, she is certainly qualified to decide who will play and how to shoot it. Zhou You and Zhou Linggang are now filming scripts that I gave them, so I will decide the role candidates. If they come up with their own stories, then I can also completely let them go like Qiong Yao in terms of character selection. Giving directors and producers greater choice applies not only to films, but also to TV series. ”
After Lin Youlun finished speaking, he put the stack of documents in his hand on the table neatly, and then handed it to Applejack.
"I've already marked out all the things that need to be corrected in the past, you ask them to redo it, and show it to me tomorrow morning...... By the way, it's about to be time to get off work, you can help me find a Western restaurant and reserve a seat, three people! ”
——
Lin Youlun still had to deal with some things in the company, and he told Wang Guxian the address of the restaurant that had been set up, and asked her and Chen Hong to go first, and he would arrive a little later.
After dealing with the matter at hand, when I rushed over, it happened to be the rush hour after work, and the traffic jam on the road was delayed for a while, and when I came to the restaurant, it was already past seven o'clock.
Walking in front of Lin Youlun into the restaurant was a young couple, the man was very tall, the woman was only up to his shoulders, and her body was still a little fat.
The waiter in the dining room greeted him and asked the young couple first.
"Sir, how many of you are there?"
The waiter was not sure if Lin Youlun and the young couple were together, so he asked.
The man turned his head and glanced at Lin Youlun.
"Just the two of us."
He only regarded Lin Youlun as a stranger, and didn't pay special attention to it, but the wife next to him also turned around, and was stunned when he saw Lin Youlun.
"Okay, please come here." The waiter made a gesture, and when the man turned his head to greet his wife, he realized that something was wrong with her expression.
"Let's go inside." He whispered a reminder, but the lady stood still, and then pulled him hard.
The man followed his wife's gaze, his gaze fell on Lin Youlun's face, stayed for two seconds, and then his eyes widened suddenly.
"Mr. Lin, you ...... Also eating here? ”
Lin Youlun felt that the man's voice was a little familiar at the beginning, the time was too short when the other party turned back for the first time, and he didn't have time to pay attention to it, and now he finally saw the other party's appearance clearly.
After a moment of stunned, Lin Youlun's expression immediately returned to normal, and he said with a smile: "I was also about to ask Mr. Liang about this, the one next to you must be Mrs. Liang, right?" ”
"Mr. Lin just calls me Hui Zai." Liang Jiahui came back to his senses, pointed to the woman next to him and introduced, "This is my wife Jiang Jianian." ”
Lin Youlun smiled and nodded at Jiang Jianian, "Mrs. Liang is good!" ”
Jiang Jianian hurriedly returned the salute, but did not interject.
"You also like to eat at this restaurant?"
"Today is my wife's wedding anniversary, so I made a seat here to celebrate." Liang Jiahui clasped his hands together and explained slightly crampedly.
"It is said outside that Hui Zai has taken a wife who is praised by everyone, and the relationship between the two is really envious of others!"
Lin Youlun's words are not nonsense, when Liang Jiahui and Jiang Jianian got married, the cover title of all newspapers and magazines in Hong Kong was "Liang Jiahui married a wife praised by everyone", Jiang Jianian in the photo is very beautiful, but recently Jiang Jianian had an illness, has been using hormone drugs, and his body and eyebrows are a little out of shape. The appearance is completely incompatible with Liang Jiahui, but I didn't expect Liang Jiahui to respond with a smile afterwards: "My wife is the best woman in the world, and it is her good that inspires me to be good." ”
If the Hong Kong entertainment industry wants to select a model husband, Liang Jiahui can definitely be shortlisted.
After a few polite sentences, Lin Youlun remembered Wang Guxian and Chen Hong, who were still waiting for him in the restaurant.
"I'm here for an appointment today, so I won't bother the two romantics!"
Lin Youlun stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, signaling Liang Jiahui and his wife to go to the restaurant, but Liang Jiahui and Jiang Jianian insisted on refusing, and they had to let Lin Youlun go.
Lin Youlun didn't want to continue standing like this at the door, so he nodded at the two of them and walked in first.
In the restaurant, Wang Guxian and Chen Hong not only ordered steaks, but also opened a bottle of red wine, laughing and drinking each other.
Lin Youlun walked over, pulled out a chair and sat down, and as soon as he spread the napkin on his knees, Wang Guxian rushed to change her steak with Lin Youlun's.
"It's so hard, you cut it for me!"
Wang Guxian looked at Lin Youlun coquettishly, with a pair of eyes like black pools, unfathomable. The long eyelashes, the curved eyebrows that cover the top of the eyes, and the thin lips all have a thrilling beauty.
"Willing to help!"
Lin Youlun picked up the knife and fork, lowered his head and began to cut the steak seriously.
When Chen Hong was still stunned by this scene, Wang Guxian beckoned to her.
"Leave him alone, let's keep talking."
Chen Hong took her gaze back, and there were some subtle changes in her impression of Lin Youlun in her heart, which made her a little absent-minded when chatting with Wang Guxian.
Wang Guxian quickly noticed this, and then turned the topic to Lin Youlun.
"By the way, I saw you talking to a man and a woman at the door of the restaurant, do you know each other?"
"You also know those two, Liang Jiahui and her wife." Lin Youlun continued to cut the steak and replied without raising his head.
"Ah, they're eating here, too?" Wang Guxian said in surprise.
She and Liang Jiahui not only know each other, but also have made movies together, in Xu Ke's "Zhu Xian: Qingyun Tribulation" and Liu Zhenwei's "Da Lu Laughing at Zhu Xian", one of them plays the male protagonist Zhang Xiaofan, and the other plays the heroine Lu Xueqi, and the "friendship" is not shallow.
"Today is their wedding anniversary."
"It's so romantic! Should we also express it? Wang Guxian said agitatedly on the side.
Lin Youlun glanced up at her, deliberately pretending to be very embarrassed and said, "Isn't this okay?" There were people watching ......"
Wang Guxian raised his hand and slapped Lin Youlun's arm, and said angrily: "What are you thinking, what I said is not to let you show me something, but what kind of gift we will give to Liang Jiahui and his wife." ”
Chen Hong watched Wang Guxian and Lin Youlun flirting and scolding, and suddenly became a little weird in his heart.
"It's not easy."
Lin Youlun put down the knife and fork, touched his pocket, and found that he forgot to bring his wallet this time.
"Did you bring your wallet?"
"Okay, you have a dinner treat, and you don't even bring your wallet!" Wang Guxian was so angry that he put down his wine glass and glared at Lin Youlun angrily. (To be continued......)
