Chapter 1 Second-tier stars
The scenery of the seaside in the southwest of the river area is still intoxicating, the sea surface is sparkling, and it is more translucent under the scorching sun. It's the touch that makes people feel extremely comfortable.
The soft sand is filled with tourists, many with their eyes closed, their feet on the beach, waiting for the coolness of the water.
Chinese, foreigners, etc., all gather in this blue sea and dry yellow sand. Some stroll on the beach; Some frolic in the sea; It's as if it's an open-air party from a stranger.
Not far from the sea, there is a small villa that looks simple, but it is undeniably gorgeous. The garden is not planted with the common roses, but with a relatively unique goldenrod, commonly known as mandala. A hundred flowers compete for beauty, the fragrance is fragrant, and it is the favorite "spiritual holy object" of the owner of this villa.
There lived a single girl living in the villa, who looked to be only twenty-five or sixteen years old, young and beautiful, and this independent building was also built by her own years of hard work.
The balcony on the second floor of the villa is hung with long white curtains, which are danced by the breeze near the sea. However, there was no girl here, I saw her leaning in front of the bedroom window, looking at the tourists on the beach in the distance in a daze, her brows slightly furrowed, and her expression a little worried.
Looking at the pleasures of the strangers at the moment, she was not interested at all, and looked a little absent-minded.
"Whew..."
The girl sighed, turned and sat down on the bed. , picked up a book and began to flip through it.
Sandwiched on the first page of the book is a photograph of herself with a friend.
She just glanced at the photo and covered it with the second page.
"It's that street again, that corner, but I can't always see his face, only my back that makes me lose..."
She read the contents of the book silently in her mind, but as soon as she turned to the third page, she began to get distracted, and closed the book again.
The girl walked out of the bedroom, sat on the sofa, took out her mobile phone and made a call.
"Hey, Sally, are you free now?"
"Sister Lan, you're free, what's wrong?"
A sweet voice came from the other end of the phone.
"I... I'm in a bad mood and want you to come out and accompany me. ”
"Uh... Let me see. Okay, let's see you at the old place. ”
Sally on the phone hesitated for a moment, but agreed to her.
"Well, I'll see you in that moment, bye."
She hung up the phone.
This girl's name is Chen Yilan, she is an artist, and she was also a second-tier star that everyone heard of by civilians, but this year she became out of attention for various reasons.
It is precisely because of this that she is so anxious and irritable, and she doesn't even know how to continue on her future path.
Sally, the girl on the phone, is her agent, and she has been stuck at home for a week, and she has no clue, so she can only seek Sally's help.
Half an hour later, Chen Yilan arrived at her destination, Muxin Tea House.
Run by a young couple, the shop was clean and filled with a small number of customers, whispering even to a table of two, for fear of disturbing everyone at the next table.
Based on her hobby and quiet, Chen Yilan used to come here to read the script, but she rarely came these days, and she only smiled and said a few words in the face of the care of the husband and wife.
"Sally, I've kept you waiting."
Chen Yilan walked to the table and sat down, and whispered hello to her agent.
"It's okay, don't you keep looking like that, okay? I've always told you to keep smiling, and you forgot? ”
Sally gave her a blank look.
"Alas, you know, I've been very anxious about my own affairs during this time, how can I be happy."
When Chen Yilan said this, the smile on her face disappeared again.
Sally took a sip of tea and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the crew and give you more walks recently." In fact, Sally herself is not very sure, but the facts do prove that Chen Yilan is starting to get angry.
"Not really, uh... I wonder if you're interested in doing that? ”
Sally continued.
"Which?"
Chen Yilan suddenly became interested.
"Uh... It is... Change careers, take photos or advertising endorsements. ”
Sally held back for a while, but then spoke.
Syllable!!
"Impossible!"
Suddenly, Chen Yilan slammed the table, and even the tea in the cup in front of Sally shook the table.
"Shhh
Sally gestured to her.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Only then did Chen Yilan notice that her actions were affecting others.
"Sally, isn't it, you're asking me to take a photo?"
Chen Yilan was very surprised, she was also a second-tier artist, and she never thought of seeking such a low-level business as taking photos.
"Well, forget it, just kidding, I know I've wronged you so much."
Sally retracted what she had just said, picked up the cup and closed her eyes and took a sip of tea, she didn't want to look directly at Chen Yilan's high-minded and self-remarkable appearance.
On the phone, Sally wanted to refuse Chen Yilan's invitation, but she also went out when she had not terminated the contract and was friends with the other party.
Chen Yilan's character Sally couldn't be clearer, it was her self-righteous normalcy that would have fallen to this point, and she hadn't had much energy in the entertainment industry for several years, if it weren't for Sally's familiarity with some crews, she Chen Yilan wouldn't be so popular.
Three hundred and sixty-five lines, which line of work earns which line of money, Sally has recently been looking for an opportunity to discuss the termination of the contract with Chen Yilan, because she has a new goal. Chen Yilan's reputation began to decline gradually, so that the development potential will also become smaller, and Sally has also wasted a lot of thought in it, she will never hang herself from a tree.
Although Sally was very angry, she also felt sorry for Chen Yilan. Some time ago, filming dramas Chen Yilan was always absent because of family matters, and sometimes she had to find a stand-in, which led to two stops, and the final ratings were very low.
Chen Yilan also had no choice, that drama was the most popular theme of contemporary times, and she didn't expect it to be destroyed in her own hands. Since then, the name Chen Yilan has begun to disappear in the ears of many people.
Sally can be with Chen Yilan for so long because of two things, one is for profit, and the other is for her own fame, but now Chen Yilan's state makes her have to choose to leave.
"That's it, I'll talk to Director Dong tomorrow, I heard that he is going to make a new drama."
Sally hesitated for a moment and decided to try again.
Chen Yilan seemed to see a glimmer of light, and asked anxiously: "Okay, do you need me to go over?" ”
"Wait, I'll ask the two of you to meet when I'm almost done, after all, you know each other, but to be honest, Sister Lan, whether we can talk about success depends on the two of us."
Sally's expression looked serious, and it was the last time she secretly planned to try.
Director Dong in Sally's mouth is the chief director of the previous failed drama, and he broke off the cooperation after the last ratings fiasco. Chen Yilan put all her sustenance on him at this time, but she remembered some things with Director Dong before, and felt a little aggrieved in her heart.
