Chapter 28: Overcoming Thorns

"I'm sorry, I, I didn't expect it, no, I should have thought of it,......" Chenxing apologized wistfully outside the crowd centered on Liu Ying. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"It's all like this, what is there to say! You are responsible for any consequences! Liu Ying's assistant Wu Qian was her cousin, and she was angry at Chenxing. Her attitude towards Chenxing is not very good, but compared to other people who ignore Chenxing, she has a lot of respect for him.

Liu Ying didn't say a word, and asked a drama manager in the crew with a little medical care experience to apply potion to her. She was also very angry in her heart, and didn't want to pay attention to Chenxing. Her original intention was that after the cooperation with Chenxing became smoother and smoother, she would slightly change the flat and direct performance method, and the range of movements would be larger, the emotions that could be expressed would be more intense, and the effect of the performance would be easy to shine. When Chenxing asked her if she could withstand Chenxing's next push in the form of a gesture in her eyes, Liu Ying immediately agreed. But I didn't expect this kind of accident, and I couldn't help but feel a little resentful about Chenxing.

"How's that, is it serious?" Director Xu asked anxiously. Everyone else also gathered around to see the situation, and no one wanted to listen to Chenxing except for asking Chenxing to give way.

Outdated artists, outdated is not only reflected in the word itself, but also in all aspects of the artist's work and life.

Sister S also brought the people from the film buyer to check Liu Ying's injury.

"You young man, why are you so careless?" When passing by Chenxing, the male leader of the film buyer pointed at Chenxing and blamed him.

"Oh, leader, don't blame him, he's a newcomer, and he hasn't been acting for a long time." A young girl in the film buyer's delegation who obviously has a good impression of Chenxing said to the male leader coquettishly that she would say good things for him. Gu Lian vaguely heard the conversation of some people in the inspection group and learned that this girl was the daughter of the director of a certain TV station.

"He doesn't seem to be a newcomer, didn't Sister S just say that he was a former Hong Kong and Taiwan red star or something?" The young man who looked like a reporter in another delegation reminded that it was probably a reporter from a TV station that had purchased the film.

"I forgot about it for a while. I didn't seem to have seen him before, so I thought he was a newcomer. Sister S said who was he? At first, I didn't know that such a handsome guy would be playing, otherwise Sister S would have to understand it well when she introduced it before. The young girl glared at the reporter disapprerovingly, and turned to Chenxing with a smile and asked, "Hey, handsome guy, what's your name?" When I was a child, I wasn't interested in Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, but I only had an impression of a star named Chen Feng, isn't that you? ”

Chen Xing was worried about Liu Ying's injury, and he was not in the mood to answer such a question carefully, "You are mistaken, I am not Chen Feng." "I wasn't even interested in introducing myself.

"He is definitely not Chen Feng, although I didn't listen carefully and didn't remember Sister S's introduction, but when she left, she would send us a brochure, and every actor would have an introduction." The reporter seemed to be trying to please the girl.

Seeing Chenxing's indifferent attitude, the young girl immediately lowered her face, turned around and left, muttering dissatisfiedly as she walked, "Cut, what to drag, no matter how handsome you are, it's too bad!" ”

It wasn't loud, but it was heard by many people, and Chenxing heard it too.

Gu Lian should be glad that many people's attention is now focused on Liu Ying. She looked at Chenxing, Chenxing didn't seem to care, just stared at Liu Ying's side, waiting for someone else's sentence like a child who had done something wrong, no matter how unfair it was, Gu Lian thought he would accept it calmly.

Liu Ying's injuries are not serious at all. It's just that the forehead was suddenly scratched by a sharp corner protruding from the rockery, and some blood flowed, and it stopped after rubbing the medicine, and it didn't affect the makeup. Because of the hair ornament, the injury was not visible at all.

"Liu Ying, how is it, does it hurt? Do you want to stop the show and go to see the injury? Sister S made a look of hushing and asked with great concern. The subtext is just to ask if Liu Ying can continue acting?

I don't need to ask to know that Sister S must not want to affect the filming just because of this little injury, so she has to deal with the people who bought the film.

Liu Ying slowly glanced at Sister S, did not speak immediately, and frowned at the right time with the posture of applying potion for the drama, so that she frowned frequently, and I felt pity.

"I see, Miss Liu still went to the hospital to see the insurance, hit her head, maybe there will be sequelae such as concussion, it's better to be cautious." The male leader's concern for Liu Ying is beyond words. He also took a few steps forward and helped Liu Ying up.

The staff of other institutions in the delegation, especially the older women, looked at each other and snickered.

"I want to take a break and at least touch up my makeup, right?" Liu Ying smiled slightly, made a gesture of exhaustion, and swaggered to her personal lounge with the support of the leader.

Sister S naturally couldn't stop her, and the others could only watch Liu Ying leave the set.

"Director Xu, are you still shooting?" Someone asked the director. The others turned to look at the director. In their eyes, what they care about is not whether Liu Ying can act or not, but whether they can finish work early.

Director Xu understands everyone's thoughts, but he can't call the shots on this issue now. It was he who set his sights on the person who could do the master, Sister S.

The crew's attention was focused on Sister S again. Except for Gu Lian and Chenxing.

"Look at what, look!" Sister S wanted to get angry, and when she thought that many people in the delegation were still on the set, she immediately put on a smile that looked awkward, "Liu Ying is a very dedicated actor, let's wait and see, in case she wants to act, isn't it disrespectful to her if we disperse, and the guests of our delegation?" ”

So the director announced a temporary break.

Under the command of Sister S, the director and some other employees affiliated with Xia Yi served tea, water and seats for the delegation, and chatted with them. The rest of the crew sat casually in the open space, drinking water and chatting.

Chenxing stood alone on the edge of the rockery, touching the little blood stain left by Liu Ying's scratch just now.

Gu Lian took a bottle of mineral water distributed by the staff, opened the lid and took a sip, not much more comfortable. Glancing at Chenxing's figure, Gu Lian took another bottle of unopened water, walked over, and handed it to Chenxing.

"I'm not thirsty." Chenxing looked up at her, his eyes clear and his expression bright. Gu Lian didn't understand whether Chenxing's acting skills were too good or his psychological quality was too good.

"Everybody is drinking water. If you don't drink water, you will take a bottle of water, so don't be a maverick at this time. Gu Lian didn't take it back, but still maintained the posture of delivering mineral water.

Perhaps because he understood the meaning of Gu Lian's words, Chen Xing hesitated for a moment and took the mineral water, "Thank you." "But the bottle was not opened.

She ...... Are you okay? Chenxing refers to Liu Ying.

"No big deal." Gu Lian avoided the important and trivialized, and didn't want to explain the uncertainty of the current situation to Chenxing, and it didn't help to say it, and the person who could solve the problem was not Chenxing.

"I'm sorry." Chenxing whispered.

"You don't owe me an apology. I was thinking that maybe your decision to join the crew was a mistake in itself. Gu Lian sat on the rockery, screwed the lid on his water, and held it in the palm of his hand, as if this would dispel the discomfort that had repeatedly risen in his heart.

"Then," Chen Xing smiled at Gu Lian, "so you don't have to worry about how to talk to Sister S about the salary increase." ”

Gu Lian looked at him, incredulous, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything. "If you don't want to lose this opportunity, don't mention anything about the salary increase to Sister S, and even be mentally prepared that she will ask you to lower the salary."

Chenxing looked at the water in his hand, the water color was clear, transparent and pure, he just watched in silence.

"I know you're short of money, but not to that extent. Mrs. Shen left again, and there is no reason for you to ask for a price increase. Is something going on at home? Gu Lian wanted to change the topic, so he asked casually, and felt regretful after asking. If you don't want to say it, forget it, I'm not going to intrude into your privacy. ”

Chenxing was silent and spoke. "Wei Kexin helped me take this scene, and I think this reward should also be given to her relatives."

"Wei Kexin is just an agent, or an unqualified agent, you are the one who acts, and you are the one who contributes. This reason is too dishonest. Gu Lian shook his head.

"But that's exactly what I thought." Chenxing's tone didn't seem to convince others, just stating a fact.

"What happened between you and Wei Kexin? Do you really think that you caused her death? Gu Lian took this opportunity to ask the doubts that had already formed in his heart.

"That night, I talked to her and wanted her to stop meddling in my affairs. I'm going to end my relationship with her. Later, she drove out and then had an accident. Whatever you think, I do have a certain responsibility. Chenxing lowered his head and said silently.

I had a hunch that it would be so, although I didn't want to believe it. Hearing Chenxing say this in person, Gu Lian still felt speechless and powerless. "It's right to fire Wei Kexin, the quality of her work is not suitable to serve as your agent anymore. But just because she died in an accident after arguing with you, not only did you not pursue it when you knew that there was a problem with the drama expenses she took over, but also treated her family members who came to her door to blackmail without reason, and now you even want to continue to make money to pay off Mrs. Shen's non-existent debt to reduce your psychological guilt? Even if you are willing to pay it back, you can take it slowly, don't be in such a hurry, no, are you in such a hurry to make money do you want to ......" Gu Lian thought of another possibility, but it was too cruel for an artist, and she subconsciously kept silent.

"If I could, I would like to earn enough money to pay back to Wei Kexin's family. In the future, if you do something else, it will be less burdensome. Chenxing had a calm expression of "you guessed it".

"You said that Wei Kexin planned to end the cooperative relationship with her before her death, that is, you want to quit the entertainment industry?" Gu Lian saw Chenxing admit it, so he said it bluntly.

Chenxing stopped talking. Still looking at the mineral water bottle in his hand, it seems that he can see a flower. Or maybe it's because it's the only thing here that is pure and colorless that deserves his attention.

"Do you finally feel that joining this entertainment industry may be the biggest mistake of your life? Want to quit now? The mineral water bottle in Gu Lian's hand couldn't help but smash the stone, and there was no reason to vent his anger. Have you ever thought that maybe you are making a bigger mistake? ”

"When I was very young, I loved dancing more than singing. But I don't know why, people call me acting and singing, but no one makes me just dance. I didn't hate singing or acting, so I didn't even think about refusing it. Maybe something was wrong from then on. Chenxing's gaze turned to the bulge on the rockery where Liu Ying's blood remained a little.

This was the first time Gu Lian saw Chenxing's originally clear eyes with a cloud, and his gaze dimmed little by little, as if a piece of beautiful jade was gradually buried in the dirt accumulated over the years, silently.

Somewhere in his heart, he must be tired at this time. Liu Ying's injury made him blame himself, and it also touched some of his emotions for a long time, making him say some words to Gu Lian that touched his heart. In the past, Gu Lian felt that he couldn't listen to him talk so much.

Gu Lian understood this, but he was not happy about it.

"No one is born ready to make mistakes. Even if it's in the wrong direction, you can open up the right path! Gu Lian unscrewed the cap of his water bottle and poured the water on the bloodstained place. The red blood spots that had not yet coagulated disappeared when they met the water, and there was no trace of blood in a second or two.

Chenxing stared at the wet and smackling water stains, reflecting Gu Lian's straight waist and her resolute look.

Gu Lian felt that he had to do something. If she continues to be so passive, she can't stand it anymore. Chenxing was invited by her, how could she watch his failure and remain indifferent? In this case, his failure is linked to his own failure. She couldn't leave him alone!

Gu Lian came to Liu Ying's lounge. The male leader was still inside, whispering and laughing with her. The two of them seemed to be very happy and comfortable, completely forgetting that there were still a lot of people waiting for Liu Ying outside. Her words Chrysostom can decide the work process of so many people today, and can even determine the fate of Chenxing in the crew.

Because of chance or chance, people often get some kind of opportunity to control the fate of others, and it is very easy to lightly ignore the future of others. When they squander the fate of others, they do not know that their own fate will also be squandered by others.

Liu Ying's little assistant Wu Qian was guarding the door of the lounge, and was a little unhappy when she saw Gu Lian approaching, but she seemed to have been instructed by Liu Ying and was polite to Gu Lian. After hearing that Gu Lian wanted to see Liu Ying, he didn't stop him, but just pouted, "You have to find a way to take away the lewd man who took the opportunity to rub the oil." ”

Gu Lian knocked on the door, and the male leader's displeased voice came, "Who?" ”

Gu Lian said softly, "Miss Liu, leader, I'm sorry to disturb you." Sister S is very concerned about Miss Liu's injury, and invited a doctor to rush to the set, the doctor knows that Miss Liu is still in the play, let me tell you, in order to better check the injury, please ask Miss Liu to change her clothes first, so that he can check for you as soon as he comes, and you don't have to wait any longer, so as not to delay the time of the leaders. ”

The male leader opened the door, and his mood eased a little. He looked at Liu Ying, a little embarrassed, "Since that's the case, then I'll go out first." ”

Gu Lian stared at Liu Ying intently. Liu Ying understood what she meant, "Okay, then you can come in and help me take off my clothes, this costume is too complicated, it is more difficult for me to take it off alone, and I don't have to call other people." ”

Gu Lian immediately followed up, showed a smile to the male leader to invite you out, and when the leader came out of the lounge, he immediately closed the door unceremoniously.

The soundproofing of the lounge is not very good, and it is just separated from the outside world by a thin wall.

"Thank you for helping me get rid of him, this man is so obscene." Liu Ying approached Gu Lian, lowered her voice, and had a disgusted expression on her face that she wanted to vomit, and she looked very familiar with swearing. After looking at Gu Lian for a few seconds, he suddenly smiled a little proudly, "Do you have something to say to me?" ”

"I'm not here to help you. Only a few words to ask you. Gu Lian's face was full of coldness, "You are delaying so much, just because Chenxing injured you?" Don't think no one knows, he did it with your consent. It was your poor cooperation that hurt you. ”

"You can't blame me for that. It was his problem that he didn't grasp the strength himself. Newcomers have to find the reason for any mistake from themselves, who doesn't come over like this. Liu Ying pretended to sort out the messy hair in front of her forehead.

"Chenxing is not a newcomer."

"That's new too."

"Whether you want to disgrace the new actor, or do you want to embarrass Sister S on a whim, you know it in your heart." Gu Liancai didn't believe Liu Ying's nonsense. Liu Ying has a deep grudge against Sister S, although she has to obey Xia Yi's company because of the binding of her own interests and Sister S, but as soon as she sees any opportunity to make Sister S unhappy, she can't help but let those irrational emotions come out.

"For me, it's all the same, killing two birds with one stone." Liu Ying smiled.

"I have a few more words, and I'll leave when I'm done. Think for yourself. Gu Lian's face became colder and colder, and Liu Ying's heart was cold, "I don't care how long you want to embarrass Sister S, but if you continue to play like this, you won't do any good yourself." The delegation may be very satisfied with you, but Sister S can't do anything to you no matter how angry she is. Then, Sister S will take all her anger out on Chenxing, and the leader will also think that she can please you and ask Chenxing to be kicked out. You understand Xia Yi's situation, Li Chunnian has been injured, no one among other actors can take Chenxing's place, and no one has such good conditions as him. Chenxing is gone, don't expect Sister S to bother to find a partner who can make you brilliant anymore. If Chenxing is kicked out, you will only be able to play against the rumored middle-aged man Jin Shiguang who takes special care of actresses. At present, he is the only actor who can be quickly contacted in Hengdian with mature acting skills and good popularity. Jin Shiguang's appearance and demeanor are not as good as this leader. How to choose, you can do it yourself! ”

After speaking, ignoring the angry look on Liu Ying's face, Gu Lian threw his hand out of the door and closed it fiercely.

"Take it off so quickly?" The male leader was still waiting not far from the door, his eyes unconsciously aimed at the closed door of the lounge, revealing the infinite reverie in his mind.

Gu Lian smiled, "Oh, Miss Liu is very dedicated, she said that there is nothing wrong with her injury, and she can't affect the filming of the crew for her own sake and disappoint the leaders." She will return to the set after a little makeup, please look forward to Miss Liu Ying's next wonderful performance. ”
