Chapter 489: Intercession
Qin Xiao smiled meaningfully and took a glass of champagne from the sommelier on the side.
"Looks like I'm not here at the right time."
Zhou Lin turned around and met Qin Xiao's slightly ridiculous smile, "Mr. Qin's words made you smile." ”
Zhou Lin's agent looked at Zhou Lin's reaction with satisfaction, just now, they had turned down several cooperation invitations from unknown film companies, in order to wait for this moment.
It is rumored that Qin Xiao's "Condensation Pictures" bought the most popular film and television resources this year at a sky-high price, and introduced a top production team.
Since it is the first film and television work invested by Condensation Pictures after its listing, and it has a very high degree of popularity and attention, the world can imagine how hot the position of the male number one is.
Moreover, everyone knows that the financial support behind Condensation Pictures comes from the largest consortium in China, and the general representative Qin Xiao has been committed to the development of the real estate and trade industry in the past few years, and now he is focusing on the entertainment industry that the consortium has never been involved in.
This kind of flipping hand can subvert the big fish in the country, and now that he takes the initiative to take the bait, he Zhou Lin is afraid that it is too late to be happy.
"As early as when I invited Mr. Zhou to the reception, I asked someone to bring you a message, and Condensation Pictures is looking forward to cooperating with you. But it seems that this word has not been reached? ”
Qin Xiao's gaze wandered back and forth between Zhou Lin and another representative of a film and television company, holding the most appropriate * degree to arouse the greed that had already begun to stir in Zhou Lin's heart.
"It's... Mr. Qin, I was talking to Mr. Zhou just now, your intention to pry the corner of the wall is a little obvious. ”
Mr. Jin, who had always wanted to cooperate with Zhou Lin, was immediately flustered after hearing that Qin Xiao wanted to cooperate with him.
There are no fools who can squeeze into the upper circle, if they really had the idea of cooperating with Zhou Lin before, then today's drinking party may be meaningless.
Qin Xiao was just picking and choosing in the artist circle, and in the end, he still chose Zhou Lin.
Zhou Lin's playful light swept over the person who made him show humility without showing humility a second ago,
In the next second, the wine glass in his hand was placed directly on the wine table, looking at Mr. Jin in front of him.
"Mr. Jin, I'm really sorry, if there is still an opportunity to cooperate in the future, I will come to thank you. Acting has always been what Zhou Lin is best at. ”
And the film and television invitations that were pushed down by Zhou Lin in the past were just stepping stones for him to get closer to the highest point of interests.
Seeing Mr. Jin leave, Qin Xiao showed a very satisfied look at Zhou Lin.
"You really didn't disappoint me, Mr. Zhou, you are very discerning."
Zhou Lin smiled humbly, "I am honored to be represented with high hopes." ”
Qin Xiao nodded and motioned to the secretary beside him, and took the relevant shooting materials in his hand.
When the agent was looking at the shooting materials, Zhou Lin had already exchanged cups with Qin Xiao a few times.
The agent lowered his voice, "Zhou Lin, this male number one, the schedule is a little wrong, this is a medium-length TV series, the shooting cycle is too long, and it collides with the two movies and variety shows you took before." ”
Zhou Lin hesitated, after all, the price of abandoning the two movies and variety shows he had signed for a TV series was a bit heavy.
He has always been arrogant, and what he can sign must be with good resources, even if this drama brings him more benefits, this liquidated damages alone are a bit excessive.
Qin Xiao looked at his hesitant appearance, and the bottom of his heart became more and more mocking.
Qin Xiaoguang looked at the location of the other actor, who was Zhou Lin's nemesis, "Since your schedule is not suitable, then I ......"
Zhou Lin followed his gaze and could guess who Qin Xiao's next choice was. His eyes narrowed slightly, and the fingertips of his goblet tightened slightly.
"Just push those things away."
Qin Xiao stared at Zhou Lin, a little incredulous, he knew that Zhou Lin was arrogant, but he didn't know when it had reached this level.
"The contract of the collision gear, just push it off. It doesn't matter, after all, it has always been my honor to cooperate with Mr. Qin. ”
The two wine glasses touched, and a meaningful smile spread from the corner of Qin Xiao's eyes.
Sun Mengjiao is right, Zhou Lin is too jealous, which is his weakness.
Zhou Lin in the center of the reception was full of spirits, and under his glamorous appearance was his increasingly inflated vanity.
He did not hesitate to respond to the people who came to flatter him, and in the staggered search, he was at ease.
Qin Xiao Consortium's first film industry in China, the first drama signed him in public to become the leading actor, this kind of honor, I am afraid that many artists dare not think of it, and it is impossible to reach the height.
Sun Mengjiao stood on the stands on the second floor, holding the delicately carved horizontal bar in front of her with both hands, taking in the various forms of beings in the banquet hall on the first floor.
It turns out that from above the high position, you can really see all the sinister in people's hearts.
Zhao Zifeng, who became the focus of the field, stared at Qin Xiao who was wandering in the upper circle expressionlessly, and when he raised his hand to pour the wine again, Sun Mengjiao saw a watch peeking out from under the cuffs of his suit.
Sun Mengjiao's palm on the bar tightened, and her heartbeat suddenly began to panic.
The lights of the reception suddenly dimmed, and Zhao Zifeng's position was hidden in the darkness.
Sun Mengjiao trembled and forcibly suppressed the panic, trying to calm herself down.
On the platform in the center of the reception, Qin Xiao stood in a place illuminated by a single beam of white light.
His cold eyes looked at Sun Mengjiao's location, and the moment he met his gaze, an inexplicable stability flowed in Sun Mengjiao's chest.
"First of all, I would like to thank all walks of life for being here to witness the establishment of Condensation Pictures, and secondly, I would like to thank Mr. Zhou Lin for signing the male lead. I look forward to working together in the future, and finally ......"
Qin Xiao raised his head to look at Sun Mengjiao, and Sun Mengjiao, in his gaze, turned around, lifted the skirt that dragged the floor, stepped on the sharp heels like a knife, and walked towards the reception step by step.
"Finally, I would like to invite the protagonist of this reception, the top executive director of Condensation Pictures, Miss Sun Mengjiao."
In the middle of the reception is a long carpet covered with flower petals.
Every step the heels took to the ground raised those petals as light as snowflakes.
Every step is the anger that Sun Mengjiao brought out from her overseas studies, and it is she who walks on the war song to judge them for not being weak.
Every step makes Sun Mengjiao farther and farther away from the dead past.
Before returning to China, Qin Xiao asked Sun Mengjiao, "Have you really decided?" When you return home, you will meet familiar people. ”
Sun Mengjiao smiled, "I died five years ago, for me, the so-called catastrophe is irreversible, what is more difficult than the previous days in prison." ”
Banquet.
Sun Mengjiao crossed the long road and finally walked to Qin Xiao's side.
Qin Xiao looked at her with a smile and leaned sideways to get out of the place illuminated by the blazing white light.
Sun Mengjiao also smiled back, and then lifted the skirt that dragged the floor.
Then, with a neat turn.
The high-heeled shoes rubbed against the floor with a high-pitched sound, not big or small, just enough to break their disguised masks.
Sun Mengjiao gently raised the corners of her lips, and the upward arc was the most suitable arc she had found when facing the mirror in the past five years.
Sun Mengjiao's eyes kept wandering in the crowd, and her eyes were eagerly looking for the crowd, looking for the figure that she had never let go of for so many years.
Zhao Zifeng, I'm back.
His vision became more and more blurred, and at last the blurred mist was about to turn into tears, and a figure suddenly rushed out of the crowd, but he only walked to the nearest position of the high platform, and then stopped.
He looked at Sun Mengjiao with misty eyes, looking at her, and a faint light burned in his dark eyes.
The next second, his eyes were suddenly red.
"This cup, thank you from all walks of life for being invited here to witness the listing of Condensation Pictures."
Sun Mengjiao smiled and drank all the champagne in her hand.
"The second cup, I wish the first big drama invested and filmed by the film industry can be rated in Changhong."
In Qin Xiao's somewhat worried light, Sun Mengjiao drank the second glass of wine.
"This third cup."
Sun Mengjiao's gaze swept sharply across the crowd, and finally landed on Zhou Lin, who was still in high spirits at that time.
"This third cup, I hope to have a happy cooperation with Mr. Zhou Lin in the future."
Sun Mengjiao walked up to Zhou Lin and pushed the wine glass in her hand.
Zhou Lin stared at me in disbelief, and refused to move.
Sun Mengjiao lowered her eyes, "What?" It seems that the actor of Zhou University refuses to appreciate my glass of wine? ”
Under Sun Mengjiao's playful gaze, Zhou Lin raised his hand and picked up a glass of wine from the wine table.
"It seems that Mr. Zhou has a lot of entertainment today, so I won't force you to drink my glass of wine, I'll do it first as a respect."
After the wine glasses touched, Sun Mengyin took the lead in drinking the wine in the cup, and finally turned over the empty cup in his hand gestureously.
"You, you're... Mengjiao? ”
"Yes, I am!"
Sun Mengjiao's smiling appearance was reflected in Zhou Lin's cloudy eyes, with a slight smile.
"I thought that Mr. Zhou, you are so forgetful, I'm afraid you won't recognize me."
Zhou Lin's voice trembled, "Really, it's really you!" ”
"Mr. Zhou Lin."
Sun Mengjiao raised her voice abruptly and forcibly interrupted him.
"As a public figure, Mr. Zhou has a very good character, and it is a great honor for me to be able to work with people I admire."
Zhou Lin lowered his head with a dodging eye, but he just squeezed out a hint of hypocritical smile and pretended to bow his head slightly.
After Sun Mengjiao met with Zhou Lin, he hurriedly left the reception with his agent under the pretext of excuse to excuse his physical discomfort.
Sun Mengjiao looked at the back that disappeared at the door of the banquet, and her eyes became deeper and deeper.
The drinking party continued, and after Zhou Lin left, Sun Mengjiao became the focus of people who wanted to flatter at the drinking party.
Sun Mengjiao held a wine glass in one hand, and walked through various games of fame and fortune with a little difficulty.
It wasn't until this moment that Sun Mengjiao completely understood how tired Qin Xiao should be to be able to travel all the way to today.
At that time, Qin Xiao, who had long been unable to pull away from the bargaining, seemed to see Sun Mengjiao's discomfort.
Sun Mengjiao looked at her former father Sun Yuanshan with a smile on her face, just like watching a prey uncontrollably leaning towards a trap containing cheese step by step.
The left hand, which hung down at his side, still uncontrollably clenched the skirt of the dress.
"You... Who the hell are you... Who? ”
Sun Yuanshan squirmed dryly, his questioning words were intermittent for a long time before he could say it completely.
Sun Mengjiao chuckled, "Could it be that in addition to Sun Mengyin, there is a second person in this world who is like me, calling you Dad?" ”
Sun Mengjiao did not shy away from meeting his incredulous gaze, but Sun Mengjiao didn't understand why the light in his eyes was not disappointed.
Sun Yuanshan stepped forward and grabbed her, "Sun Mengjiao, good boy, let's talk." ”
"I guess my father came to me when he saw that I had become the highest executive of cohesion, otherwise it's useless to dislike me, I wish I was dead, right, Dad?"
In the end, it is a person who has been in business for a long time, Sun Yuanshan heard her playfully ridiculed, and his originally warm eyes instantly turned cold.
Sun Mengjiao looked at him stubbornly, "Let go." ”
But compared with Sun Mengjiao's stubbornness, Sun Yuanshan seems to be even worse. His hand holding Sun Mengjiao's wrist bone kept shaking, but he still stubbornly refused to let go.
It seems that as soon as he lets go, Sun Mengjiao will disappear.
"Where have you been in the past five years? Do you know that Dad has been looking for you like crazy all along, but since you have returned to China, why don't you go home? ”
