Chapter 836: Fulfilling the Gambling Contract [Three Watches]
"There's no reason for that!"
After answering Lin Youlun's call, Wang Jing kept repeating this sentence in his mouth.
Zhu Yanping thought that Wang Jing couldn't figure out what Lin Youlun would know that he was here, so he explained: "There is a telephone message in my hotel room, and Mr. Lin must have called my room number, and then called you directly!" ”
Wang Jing shook his head, picked up a glass of wine and drank it.
"I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about Xie Miao!"
Zhu Yanping was surprised when he heard it, is there anything wrong with this Xie Miao?
Wang Jing spread his hands and looked at Zhu Yanping and Nan Yan.
"I didn't tell Aaron about filming "The Five Ancestors of Shaolin" at all, how did he know that I had found Xie Miao?"
Zhu Yanping didn't know how to answer, but Nan Yan mentioned it.
"If you think about it again, could it be that you told Mr. Lin about it, and then forgot about it yourself."
Wang Jing himself had such speculations, but quickly ruled out this possibility.
Nan Yan then asked, "Could that be someone else telling him?" ”
Wang Jing thought about it and was about to deny it, and then suddenly thought of a person in his mind.
"I know that this must have been told to him by Ah Zhen!"
The heroine of "Shaolin Five Ancestors" is Qiu Shuzhen, Wang Jing thinks that she should have told Lin Youlun about Xie Miao, otherwise there would be no other reason to explain it.
Wang Jing figured it out himself, and Nan Yan and Zhu Yanping also believed this reason.
"By the way, at the premiere of "Love and Love", Mr. Lin should come to your side to cheer, right?" Zhu Yanping took a sip of wine. Putting down the wine glass asked.
I thought I would get a positive answer. didn't expect Wang Jing and Nan Yan to hear this. His face became a little unnatural.
As soon as Zhu Yanping saw this situation, he immediately realized that things were not as simple as he thought.
Wang Jing coughed and said with a little embarrassment: "Aaron said that there was something that day, and he wouldn't go to the premiere." ”

Under the hype of the media, the showdown between the two films "Love and Love" and "Happy Affair in the Flower Field" has become the first major event in the Hong Kong film industry in 93.
On January 23, the two films were released at the same time, and the theater where the premiere was held was only two blocks apart, and the meaning of-for-tat was very obvious.
In order to draw the media to this side. Lin Jianyue directly distributed red envelopes at the premiere of "Happy Events in the Flower Field", which was very effective, and many reporters who originally went to "Love and Love Left and Turn Right" came here after hearing the news.
In this way, Lin Jianyue was not at ease, so he sent someone to the premiere of "Love and Love Left and Right Turn" early to keep an eye on the guests, and what activities were carried out on the spot, and there were special people to report to Lin Jianyue as soon as possible.
"What? You said Lin Youlun didn't go? ”
Lin Jianyue was subconsciously stunned when he learned the news, but Huang Baiming reminded him on the side that a reporter was taking pictures in the audience. Only then did he adjust his mood and waved his hand to let the subordinate who came to report the news leave first.
After getting off the stage. Lin Jianyue always felt a little unsteady in his heart, so he told Huang Baiming the news.
Knowing that Lin Youlun did not appear at the premiere of "Love and Love", Huang Baiming was also a little surprised at first, but he quickly figured it out.
Lin Youlun did not directly invest in "Love and Love", and it is normal not to attend the premiere as him, but Lin Jianyue doesn't think so, he always feels that Lin Youlun has another purpose behind this.
Huang Baiming was a little helpless about this, but Lin Jianyue had to listen to his opinion, he only stubbornly said: "Then there are only two possibilities, one is that he is very confident in this movie and feels that it is okay if he doesn't go to the premiere scene, then he is already disappointed in this movie and feels that it is a shame to go to the premiere scene." ”
"Then what kind of situation do you think Lin Youlun won't go?" Lin Jianyue then asked again:
Huang Baiming hesitated, although he was very reluctant to draw this conclusion, he couldn't talk nonsense with his eyes open.
"I think the former one is more likely, because I heard that halfway through the filming of "Love and Love", because Lin Youlun was not satisfied, Wang Jing had to revise the entire script, and the remade movie should be satisfactory to Lin Youlun, otherwise with Lin Youlun's style of acting, this movie may not even have a chance to be released."
Huang Baiming's words made Lin Jianyue silent, he knew that Huang Baiming was not lying, but this result still made him feel very uncomfortable.

"Two, I'm sorry, our hotel doesn't allow reporters to enter casually, do you need me to call security?" The waitress at the front desk had a professional smile on her face, but her words were not polite at all.
The two reporters who tried to enter the hotel for an interview reluctantly turned around, and when they exited the glass revolving door, a familiar figure happened to enter the hotel from the two of them.
One of the reporters stopped and asked his companion, "Hey, did you see the guy who just went in?" ”
The companion looked up and looked at him blankly.
"What's wrong?"
"The person who went in just now is Lin Youlun!" The reporter lowered his voice and spoke.
"Are you sure you're not blind? Shouldn't Lin Youlun attend the premiere of "Love and Love, Left Light and Right Turn" at this time? The companion looked incredulous.
"Please, he just took off his sunglasses when he entered the door, I can see it clearly!" After the reporter said this, he turned around and was about to enter the hotel again to take a look, but was stopped at the door.
The waiter in charge of opening the door said indifferently: "I'm sorry sir, you can't go in again!" ”
The reporter pretended to be a resident of the place and threatened the other party: "I want to go in and book a room, you stop me again, be careful that I complain about you!" ”
The waiter glanced at him, "Do you need me to call a security guard?" ”
"Why are the people in your hotel all this line, can you be a little creative?" Seeing that his identity was revealed, the reporter complained on the spot, and then turned to leave.
"Did you really see Lin Youlun just now?" My companion leaned over and asked.
"If you don't believe it, forget it, anyway, people have already gone in, and we don't have a chance to interview if we want to." The reporter said angrily.
At this moment, a silver sedan stopped in front of the hotel, the door opened, and a man wearing sunglasses got out of it.
The reporter was just walking forward, but his companion grabbed him suddenly.
"Look, isn't that Li Lianjie?"
The reporter turned his head, but the man who was thought to be Li Lianjie by his companion had already entered the hotel, and he only saw a back.
"Are you sure?" This was what his companion had just asked him, but now it had become him asking his companion.
"It's true!" The companion nodded vigorously.
The reporter thought about it for a moment, and then made up his mind.
"Okay, we'll stand guard at the door of the hotel and wait for them to come out!"
In the hotel café, Lin Youlun sat down, and Li Lianjie followed.
The two sat down face to face, the waiter brought two cups of coffee, Lin Youlun was about to speak, but Li Lianjie grabbed in front of him.
"Mr. Lin, about the bet we made last time, I don't think there is any need to continue!"
Lin Youlun didn't speak while holding the coffee, because his intuition told him that Li Lianjie didn't want to regret it.
"I've lost this bet, and I'm convinced." Li Lianjie then added.
Lin Youlun put the coffee to his mouth and took a sip, put it down and said, "Is it too early for Mr. Li to say this now?" ”
"The box office of "Zhongnanhai Bodyguard" has become what it is now, and I have been reflecting on it during this time, maybe as Mr. Lin said, this movie took the wrong name from the beginning." Li Lianjie said with a sense of depression between his eyebrows and a little disappointment.
"Zhongnanhai Bodyguard" has been released for more than three months now, and only won more than 17 million box office, while the box office of "Truant Weilong 2" released at the same time has reached 26 million, such a gap makes Li Lianjie have to face reality.
This is not Li Lianjie's self-indulgence, although the movie that Lin Youlun mentioned to him has not yet started filming, but the movies that Lin Youlun has invested in over the years have basically not had a box office of less than 30 million, since Lin Youlun dared to bet on that movie, he must have full confidence in the box office prospects of this movie.
Li Lianjie felt that after waiting for the movie to be filmed and released, it would be better for him to admit defeat now, so that at least he could leave a little initiative.
"Since Mr. Li has decided, then I won't force it, you can read the script first!"
Lin Youlun asked Li Lianjie to meet today, originally to tell him about the movie, he sat still and didn't move, but pointed to the folder that had been placed on the table.
Li Lianjie opened this folder, and the words "Rat Guts" were printed on the first page, no need to ask, this should be the name of the movie.
Li Lianjie frowned.
"Mr. Lin, does this movie have anything to do with "Die Hard" starring Cheng Long?"
"The story content of the two movies is somewhat similar, and the difference should also be seen from the names of the two movies, "Die Hard" is a pure action movie, while "Die Hard" has some comedy elements."
Lin Youlun briefly explained two sentences, and then Li Lianjie's brows furrowed a little deeper.
"Mr. Lin, you asked me to act in a comedy, isn't this a bit difficult?"
Lin Youlun shook his head and laughed.
"Mr. Li, don't worry, it doesn't matter what you're worried about, the movie "Rat Guts" adopts a two-actor model, in which you play the role of a bodyguard, only responsible for action scenes, and the funny part of the scene is responsible for another male protagonist, which has nothing to do with you, you are two lines that do not interfere with each other!"
