Liu Mengyao's expression was shocked and revealed a bit of "I know" sadness.

Xu Zhen inexplicably felt a little sorry for Zhou Ran, and a little sorry for their fans......

Zhou Ran is a talented music creator, and he is also a vegetable and fun-loving crotch puller.

He has acted in several movies in recent years, from cameos, to supporting roles, to leading actors, and is full of ambition to enter the entertainment industry and become a film, television, and song artist.

Xu Zhen once asked Zhou Ran euphemistically why he wanted to perform so persistently, and the answer he got was: he wants to be a "superstar" in the new era.

Zhou Ran held his proud head high and said that those who can sing and act are real "superstars".

Xu Zhen: ......

I don't know where he heard this fallacious reasoning and heresy.

Of course, being able to sing and act is great, but being able to sing and cry and shout to act is probably a big star.

However, Xu Zhen doesn't know if it's his own delusion, since Zhou Ran was caught by the director of "I Want to See You" to make a cameo appearance on himself, this brother's enthusiasm for acting has visibly decreased.

In the past year, he has never tossed about the movie again.

For a young man who aspires to make a difference in the film industry, playing himself in a movie probably took a huge hit to him.

Xu Zhen felt a little sad for the shattering of this "teenager's" dream, and at the same time felt sincerely happy for the high quality of the original soundtrack of "I Want to See You".

The story "I Want to See You" is about the psychological problems of young people.

This series of music created by Zhou Ran reveals the darkness in the youth, and the decadence is hidden in the youth, which has a sense of "there are men in Chang'an, and the twenty hearts are decayed", which fits perfectly with the plot.

Xu Zhen listened to the music and watched the film, and every time he was emotional, he could shed tears almost instantly.

He had to sigh that Zhou Ran was indeed a genius, and his keen and delicate emotions were really the creator's gift to the film and television industry.

It's a pity that doctors don't heal themselves.

This emotion can only be used to move people with other people's performances, and he can't borrow it himself.

……

On June 15th, the feature film of "I Want to See You" will be released.

At the same time, the soundtrack of "I Want to See You" will also be officially released at 8 o'clock in the evening on this day.

That morning, Xu Zhen got a small box of signed CDs sent to him by Zhou Ran in advance.

The other party also sent a message to explain to him, including a separately packaged collector's edition gift box, which was given to Liu Mengyao.

Xu Zhen couldn't help but sigh that Zhou Ran had a heart.

He opened the box and found the gift box, and just wanted to give it to Liu Mengyao, but when he looked at it, he found that a line of words was written on it with a golden signature pen: Give it to Liu Mengyao.

Xu Zhen: "......"

You make a mistake in three words, but it's really okay.

In the end, he hesitated again and again, but did not choose to fake the signature, but picked an ordinary signed CD and gave it to Liu Mengyao, counting her as a blessing for not taking the gift box.

……

On this morning, the crew of "I Want to See You" built momentum for the start of the broadcast and carried out a series of promotional activities on the Internet.

Prior to this, Zhou Xiaoman also specially came to Ludao from the capital and brought the company's publicity team to record a Reuters video for him to build momentum for the start of the show.

Zhou Xiaoman is still nominally Xu Zhen's assistant, but in fact, except for the kind of activities that require frequent contact with outsiders, such as attending various galas, recording variety shows, shooting endorsement advertisements, etc., Xu Zhen generally does not take her.

Zhou Xiaoman's main responsibility now is actually the publicity work of Xu Zhen's studio.

On the one hand, this is because Xu Zhenjin likes freedom when filming, and on the other hand, because Zhou Xiaoman has a very strong ability to make videos and engage in publicity, which really makes her work as an assistant all the time, and it is a waste of talent.

The head of the publicity team is a member of the leadership of the studio, and his salary, contract, position and other aspects are much higher than that of a simple assistant.

Zhou Xiaoman has been his right-hand man since he first debuted, and he has brought him great help over the years, and Xu Zhen will never be disadvantaged.

Xu Zhen was so satisfied with Zhou Xiaoman's work, but at the same time, Zhou Xiaoman beat his chest and gritted his teeth with hatred for the "crotch-pulling" performance of the leader of the propaganda group.

She has been in charge of Xu Zhen's publicity work since two years ago, during this period, Xu Zhen's strength has undoubtedly improved, and the coffee position in the circle has become higher and higher, but these are all due to his own efforts.

When it comes to public popularity, there has actually been a slight decline.

When Xu Zhen was at his most popular, it was two or three years ago.

For a short period of time, "Breaking through the Guandong" reached the top in the summer vacation and became popular all over the country, and then the online drama "One Kiss Love" won another phenomenal achievement, followed by "Yang Jiajiang" and "Langya Bang" were released one after another, Xu Zhen won the crown of Yulan Emperor, and the limelight was unparalleled for a while.

After that, his focus gradually shifted from TV dramas to movies.

Last year, although "Embroidered Spring Knife" and "Orphaned" both achieved very good box office results, and Xu Zhen also won the Golden Rooster Award "Best Supporting Actor" award for "Orphaned", but neither of these two movies can be called hits.

For non-popular movies, the audience is naturally smaller than that of TV series, and the popularity that can be brought to actors is also very limited.

As a result, in the recent period, Xu Zhen has become popular out of the circle when he has works, and he is deserted when he has no works.

At the beginning of the year, when "Kite" was released, Xu Zhen's hot search index soared visibly, and reached its peak during the broadcast of "Sound in the Ear".

But as soon as this drama was launched, various indices fell rapidly, and now more than three months have passed, and there is no such person on the hot search list.

In Zhou Xiaoman's view, his own artists are veritable first-line actors, powerful idols, and benchmarks for the new generation with both appearance and acting skills, so they should be popular all over the Internet.

How can we allow these bubble idols who don't know where to pop up and don't know what works they have all day long!

Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaoman tied up his braids aggressively, raised the small camera in the studio, and took pictures of Xu Zhen's face.

Look, the old lady must take out all her housekeeping skills this time!

Taking the opportunity during the broadcast of "I Want to See You", let our family Ah Zhen's popularity crush the whole network!

It's crushing, it's not climbing to the top, it's crushing!!

"Ahh

At this moment, Xu Zhen, who was filming on the set, inexplicably felt a murderous aura and couldn't help sneezing.

He looked left and right in confusion, but he didn't see anyone suspicious.

Xu Haoyu's role has not started yet, so he acted as a drama on the sidelines according to his father's request, and learned about the filming of the movie while doing chores.

Whether he has learned the filming process, Xu Zhen doesn't know;

He only knew that through the "experience" of the past few days, Xu Haoyu had become very familiar with the master who delivered the food to the crew, and every day when he saw the meal delivered, he would happily comment on the dishes with the master, discussing the nutritional ratio and the freshness of the meat.

I have to say that the months of working in Jianghu noodle restaurant were indeed not in vain.

It's just that this knowledge may not be very useful for making movies.

……

On the afternoon of June 15, Xu Han did not show up to supervise the filming progress of the film, but went to the airport to pick up the plane, and then came to the set with a stranger.

Since there are often brands and investors visiting the class recently, Xu Zhen didn't pay much attention to it.

The stranger was of medium height, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses and a mask on his face, making it impossible to see what he looked like.

Through the exposed part of his face, Xu Zhen could only see that the distance between this person's eyes was wide, and he looked a little confused.

After this person came to the set, his eyes never left Xu Zhen's left and right, and from time to time he exchanged heads with Xu Han next to him and pointed at him.

Xu Zhen was a little hairy by this person, but the task on the set was heavy, he had to act and guide the other actors around him, and he couldn't be distracted.

What's more, Uncle Xu didn't introduce himself to him, and he probably didn't need to take the initiative to ask.

Forget it, let it be.

If there is a need, it will naturally come to the door.

During the lunch break, Xu Han specially asked someone to bring a rather sumptuous dish and took the guest to the nanny's car to enjoy.

When no one was around, the mysterious guest cautiously looked around, drew the curtains on the nanny's car, and then took off his mask, revealing the face of an ordinary middle-aged man.

If 100 people were dragged over from the road, 99 of them would say that they were completely unfamiliar with this face, and the rest would be a "king of understanding" who didn't know how to pretend to understand.

Xu Han looked at this person speechlessly, and couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Big guy, take your magical powers!"

He propped his chin with his hand and said helplessly: "Are you wrapping yourself so tightly?" Not many people know you here anyway. ”

"It's even more suspicious that you're doing that!"

The middle-aged man calmly took out the tableware, took a sip of soup, and said, "If others don't know it, Xu Zhen must know it." ”

"I checked it before I came, and this kid has a very good memory, but he can call out the names of anyone he has met."

"I'm in front of him, so I'll have to be cautious."

"If it's recognized, and the matter doesn't work out by then, then I'm so embarrassed."

Xu Han turned his face away, and he was embarrassed to complain further.

The middle-aged man on the other side is named Zhuang Wenhui, who is an authentic Xiangjiang person.

However, he speaks Mandarin fluently, perhaps better than people in many dialect areas.

Because, when Zhuang Wenhui was young, he dubbed Chinese for Xiangjiang dramas.

However, the voice actor is only the least worthy of his many identities.

He is best known as a screenwriter.

Film screenwriter.

Zhuang Wenhui won the "Best Screenplay" award at the Xiangjiang Film Awards many years ago, and the work that brought him this honor is called "Infernal Affairs".

- Zhuang Wenhui, is the screenwriter of the movie "Infernal Affairs".

He was sitting in the nanny car at this time, and after a simple two-bite meal, he took out a document from his bag, handed it to Xu Han, and said, "I gave you a copy of the plan, you can take it." ”

As he spoke, he pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "Xu Zhen, I saw a child who looks quite clean." ”

"But it's so small, it looks like a high school student."

Saying that, he shook his head and said, "I came all the way to find you, not to find actors." ”

"Moreover, even if I want to use Xu Zhen, it is impossible for him to play the leading role, even the third and fourth male leads are a little reluctant."

Xu Han stretched out his hand and picked up the document, "Then what if he brings money into the group?" ”

"Would you like to consider giving him an important role?"

As he spoke, he held his chin with both hands and smiled at Zhuang Wenhui: "I don't actually plan to invest in your movie." ”

"Xu Zhen is thinking about making a movie recently, and it just so happens that you are looking for investment, buying and selling, so I want to introduce you to you."

"I'm going to be the middleman this time."

"Huh?" Zhuang Wenhui was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Isn't Xu Zhen an actor?" ”

"He invests in films? Can you afford it? ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but be a little angry, and said, "Please, Lao Xu, my movie is going to be a big production, and I'm going to find a superstar to play my male lead!" ”

"You introduced a hairy boy to be my investor?"

"Or is he actually some kind of hidden rich second generation, the son of which tycoon, but all the insiders don't know?"

"Do you underestimate him or underestimate me?"

"Hahahaha......" Xu Han couldn't help but smile and wave his hand when he saw him so anxious, "I said Mr. Zhuang, the investigation you did was a bit inadequate." ”

As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone, typed a few lines of text on the browser, clicked on an interface, and showed Zhuang Wenhui: "Look at this." ”

Zhuang Wenhui took it over suspiciously, but saw that this was a ranking list of the income of public figures last year.

And the name of "Xu Zhen" is impressively ranked 13th on the list, with an annual income of an astonishing nine figures.

Zhuang Wenhui was stunned when he saw this.

Xu Han added: "Hmm...... He didn't work too hard last year, and he didn't say much about his work. ”

"I remember that last year he seemed to be eighth or ninth on this list, and last year he didn't even enter the top ten?"

"No, no, no, why are you getting further and further behind!"

Zhuang Wenhui: "......"

it, is that guy who looks like a high school student just now actually a big guy??

Xu Han saw his sluggish expression and said with a smile: "What's the matter, do you want to think about it?" ”

"It's their first time making a movie in Langya Pavilion, and they are definitely more attentive than other companies."

"Actually, you can trust them."

Zhuang Wenhui didn't speak for a long time.

After a while, he took out a thicker document from his bag and said to Xu Han: "Please help me make an appointment with Mr. Xu?" ”

"Shall we discuss it tonight?"

When Xu Han heard this, a sly smile appeared on his face.

He took the document from the other party's hand and flipped it open, only to see that it was a complete movie script.

The name of the movie is called, "Wushuang".
