Chapter 48: Celebration Party
After the movie was released, the word of mouth was surprisingly good.
It's still a big company and a big director who makes a big hit.
Within 10 days of release, the box office has exceeded 300 million, it is a miracle that the drama in big costumes can reach this level, generally speaking, only the science fiction films made by Hollywood are relatively popular, I didn't expect "The Legend of Concubine Ling" to be so popular, so Ye Lijun and I, as the protagonists, suddenly firmly occupied the hot search on Weibo.
As for me, I was suddenly promoted from an eighteenth-tier small Internet celebrity declared by the media to a hot star.
Sometimes surprises come like this, but I also know that if you don't work hard after the results obtained through shortcuts, it is easy to be pulled off the horse and fall harder.
Therefore, I will walk on thin ice in the future, and I will have to walk more carefully.
The movie has achieved good results, and I was also promoted to the new little flower in the company by Pan American Entertainment, although many people are not convinced, especially Yang Mengmeng, even if I am very low-key and don't care about these, but with Tan Luoxi's care, no one dares to say anything.
Pan Am held a celebration party for this film, and it was very grand, and it was said that many of the company's top executives would be in attendance, so I was a little nervous.
The celebration was held at the Peninsula Hotel, the hotel's largest auditorium was already packed.
After all, Pan Am Entertainment's signboard is here, and the country's top entertainment company has too many resources and artists, which are incomparable to other entertainment companies.
Of course, if you can catch up with the production company or some big-name directors here, then you really don't have to worry about running out of scenes to shoot in the future.
Not to mention that those who can be invited are definitely heavyweights in the entertainment industry.
Because of this, too many media outlets have sent reporters to The Peninsula Hotel.
Ye Lijun and I came to the hotel in the company's nanny car, and when I got off the bus, in order to facilitate the photo, Ye Lijun held my hand very gentlemanly.
Probably I haven't adapted to the rules of the entertainment industry yet, and I looked at him a little stunned.
"It's just for the media to see, and for the promotion of the movie, if you are not used to contact with the opposite sex like this except for filming, then you can hold my arm." Ye Lijun explained.
He was telling the truth, after all, it was all for work, and I wasn't so pretentious.
Ye Lijun just stretched out his arm and put it in front of me, I smiled and shook his hand: "Since it's work, I have no reason to refuse, it seems that I am very disrespectful." β
It was only very soon that my eyes were drawn to another car.
It was a Maybach, and the people who came out after the doors opened made my eyes instantly burn.
It's Tan Yiyang and Ye Qiao.
How could they come, did Pan American also invite them?
I saw it, Ye Lijun naturally saw it too, I saw him greet Ye Qiao lightly, he was not very enthusiastic, his expression suddenly became a lot colder, and he just said "I didn't expect you to be so busy and have time to come" and turned his head to look at Tan Yiyang.
He greeted Tan Yiyang, and then took my hand and generously introduced to me: "Li En, they are my sister and quasi-brother-in-law, and my quasi-brother-in-law is Tan Yiyang, the president of our Shanghai business tycoon Yuming Group. β
As if I was meeting him for the first time, I greeted him with a polite smile: "Thanks to Mr. Ye, I am really lucky to know Mr. Tan, and I hope Mr. Tan can take care of him more in the future." β
I didn't forget to nod my head when I spoke, and I had to do enough to act, after all, this is the posture that a newcomer who has just debuted should have, but I always feel that a trace of strange emotions flashed on my face.
Ye Qiao looked at me and Ye Lijun, and said with a smile in his eyes: "Miss Li, the media say that you and Lijun are dating, if it is true, there is time for Lijun to take you home for a meal." β
No matter how you look at it, this smile feels very fake.
Before I could respond, Ye Lijun naturally hugged my waist and smiled lowly: "Second sister, don't be too anxious, when the time comes to take it home, I will definitely bring it back." β
Their relationship doesn't seem to be too harmonious, there is no intimacy between the average sibling, and some are just polite.
Isn't the relationship between sister and brother incompatible?
Although it feels a little inexplicable, this kind of thing that has nothing to do with you should be less involved.
Ye Lijun suddenly lowered his head and glanced at me, leaned into my ear and whispered to me, "You don't know Tan Yiyang, do you?" β
"I don't know." I immediately denied it, pretending to be very naughty and said: "How can I have the resources to know Mr. Tan, if I really knew him, I would have made my debut a long time ago, why wait until this age." β
"You're right." Ye Lijun pursed his lips and looked at me again with a smile, escorting me past many reporters along the way and going directly to the venue.
And I felt a little chill down my spine, and I clearly felt that Tan Yiyang's gloomy eyes had been watching me behind me.
Although we talked in a low voice, I think our conversation still reached Tan Yiyang's ears.
Looking at his somewhat cold face, I couldn't help but feel excited, so I quickly turned my head to look away.
Tan Yiyang and Ye Qiao walked behind us, and the momentum of being besieged by reporters was no worse than the treatment of celebrities, this is probably the charm of the giants.
I approached Ye Lijun, looked at the reporter with a polite smile and asked him in a low voice: "Why did Mr. Tan of Yuming Group come to our celebration banquet?" β
He bowed his head to signal the reporter, then turned his head to my ear and answered: "Pan Am is a company owned by Yuming, which is usually managed by Tan Luoxi, and the actual wholly-owned holder is Tan Yiyang." β
β¦β¦
whatοΌ
When I heard this, I really wanted to hit the tofu headfirst.
Why can't you escape the palm of Tan Yiyang's hand, the vast place before, and now Pan America, no matter how you listen to it, you feel that you are from one trap to another.
If I had known that Pan Am was his company when I signed the contract, I would not have signed it.
Now all I think about is whether or not I can cancel the contract.
But I still clearly remember that when I signed the contract, the five-year period written in the contract, if I breached the contract and changed jobs, I would need to pay 500 million liquidated damages.
Now that I think of those 500 million, my whole body is trembling slightly, how many movies do I have to make to redeem myself?
Although I regret it very much, but it has come to this point, and I can only grit my teeth to survive the past five years.
"Lane, what's wrong with you?" Ye Lijun seemed to notice my abnormality, pulled my hand tightly, and looked at me with some concern.
was distracted, and before he could respond to Ye Lijun, he saw Tan Luoxi wearing a white sexy dress and holding his male companion from the red carpet.
She stood directly beside me, with a smile in her eyes, and even a little ridiculous in her tone: "My new goddess, how about your CP show affection here?" It's all ten fingers clasped, which makes people look so envious. β
As soon as I saw her, I thought of Pan American being Tan Yiyang, and the fire in my stomach had nowhere to vent, and I panicked.
"He's coming, do you see that?" Before I could speak first, Tan Luoxi raised his eyebrows and leaned into my ear to speak, and then pointed in the direction of Tan Yiyang.
It's good that she didn't mention it, but when she mentioned it, I couldn't hold back.
I let go of Ye Lijun's hand in a timely manner, leaned towards Tan Luoxi, and asked her a little angrily: "Why didn't you tell me that Pan Am is Tan Yiyang's when you signed the contract?" β
"Tut-tut, you'll question me as soon as you know." Tan Luoxi pinched my face: "Don't worry about this, he is him, I am me, and it is I who manages Pan America, what are you afraid of, and besides, he is a person who is going to get married, does it have anything to do with you?" β
β¦β¦
Tan Luoxi said, "Does it have anything to do with you?" "It hurt me internally.
After all, Tan Yiyang has nothing to do with me now, even if I am under the Pan American flag, he can't do anything to me, so I naturally don't have to worry, but I just feel embarrassed inexplicably.
Maybe it's just me who is embarrassed, for Tan Yiyang, it seems that it's just that the extra artists under his umbrella used to be underground lovers, but I'm a little mediocre here.
"Lien, don't think about this, be happy, otherwise it will be easy for reporters to take pictures of scribbling." After saying that, she took her male companion into the lobby.
I had no choice but to take a deep breath, put away my embarrassment and insecurity, and sat down with Ye Lijun.
said it was a celebration banquet, but in the second half, it became a business party.
Many people are pulling resources for themselves, in addition to the resources involved in the entertainment industry, there are many people who are envious of the wealthy plaice on the side.
Tan Yiyang is the behind-the-scenes boss of Pan America, and Ye Qiao is naturally the future boss lady, and it seems that many producers and directors know them.
The whole banquet probably heard praise for how beautiful Miss Ye was, and it was all compliments, which made people unconsciously a little hypocritical.
There is even a group of wives dressed up brightly, admiring Tan Yiyang and Ye Qiao.
The producer's wife said to the other women: "Look at this Mr. Tan and Miss Ye's talented and beautiful women, the two of them are really a match made in heaven, it is said that Mr. Tan has always been in love with Miss Ye, as if love is dead and alive." β
One of them responded: "Yes, yes, it looks like true love, although Mr. Tan is the owner of Pan America, but he never shows his face, and this time he gave enough face for his brother-in-law's play." β
"What's more, I heard that their wedding preparations are particularly extravagant, Mr. Tan gave Miss Ye the fantasy that all women want, their wedding villa is decorated by my sister-in-law's company, and it is said that he will take Miss Ye to Fiji for her honeymoon and charter the entire Wakaya Island."
What's so great about luxury, what about having a whole island under a wallet?
Isn't it just getting married, it's really a couple who make such a big move.
I wish I had suddenly become deaf, so that I could not hear anything, and my heart would not be uncomfortable, like a high-rise building collapsed in an instant, and it hurt me.
I really couldn't listen to the remarks of these wives group, and my heart was held back for a night, and finally I found an excuse to go to the bathroom.
I think I need to cool myself down with cold water.
Just as I was turning on the faucet, I was suddenly grabbed from behind.
I looked up like a frightened fawn in a panic, and was about to cry out when my mouth was covered.
At that moment, he saw Tan Yiyang standing behind him through the mirror, and he couldn't say a word in astonishment.
