"Can there be two male leads in a play?"

Xu Yi asked rhetorically.

Li Xun was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately toasted Xu Yi with a glass of wine: "The boss is open to business, I will do this cup, you are free." ”

Using Li Xun as the protagonist of the wolf warrior is actually risky.

After all, Li Xun did not have a decent masterpiece on the big screen before.

Even if "Operation Red Sea" can explode during the Spring Festival, the male lead is Zhang Feng, and Li Xun plays the role of a sniper observer, and his performance is not particularly eye-catching.

Therefore, appointing Li Xun as the leading actor will have half the box office risk.

The reason why Xu Yi did this naturally also had his own considerations.

He wants to bring Li Xun out, sooner or later, he will let Li Xun play the male lead, rather than playing the supporting role step by step and spending more than ten years, it is better to go directly to the ceiling.

If one doesn't work, let's do another one.

If the three parts are not good, it means that Li Xun does not have the life to explode.

The affairs of the entertainment industry are sometimes very metaphysical.

Some people obviously came to make soy sauce, but it became popular, and it became a mess.

Some people, no matter how much the capital behind them is held, how to invite big coffee superstars to accompany them, but they just can't catch fire.

Xu Yi drank half of the wine, then put down the glass and said:

"But first of all, this is the first film that the company has invested in, and the budget is limited. The salary given to you is estimated not to be too high. ”

"That's not a problem."

Li Xun didn't have any opinions: "It's really not good, I'll be paid to act, but you have to take care of me eating and drinking for a year." ”

Xu Yi thought about it very seriously, nodded and said:

"It's okay, the lunch box is enough."

Li Xun naturally didn't do it: "I will eat what you eat, if you can eat a boxed lunch for a year, I will accompany you." ”

The brothers are talking about each other, and on this special night, neither of them mentioned the matter of watching the Spring Festival Gala, because the Spring Festival Gala is also organized by the main station.

Besides, the Spring Festival Gala is really nothing to watch.

After three rounds of drinking, both of them were a little drunk.

Li Xun didn't know why, so he pulled the topic to the female artist:

"Boss, to be honest, you and Meng Xiling really have no possibility of development at all?"

Xu Yi said very seriously: "Lao Li, it's okay for you to ruin my reputation, but don't ruin the reputation of other girls." What do you mean by me and Meng Xiling, the two of us are ordinary friends, and we haven't even eaten together. ”

Hearing this, Li Xun sighed.

Then he said with regret:

"It's a pity, it's a pity!"

"I can see that Meng Xiling actually still has some thoughts about you. When I was filming the sports meeting, she took the initiative to post you, but unfortunately you didn't call. ”

"People have hot faces and cold butts, so naturally they won't stick it up again."

"Boss, you don't like men, do you?"

Meng Xiling's appearance and figure are among the best in the entertainment industry.

This child is the white moonlight in the hearts of many men!

Why did Xu Yi come here and it didn't work?

Xu Yi scolded with a smile: "you, I just don't want to fall in love." I think it's better to make money a little more solid, and when I earn enough money for retirement, let's have a good relationship! ”

"How much does it cost to retire?" Li Xun asked casually.

Xu Yi stretched out a finger, and before he could speak, he fell asleep on the table.

Li Xun shook his head and said strangely:

"A million?"

"A million isn't that hard for you, is it?"

Then he also lay on the table, and slowly sounded an even snoring sound.

……

Nothing was said all night.

The New Year's bell rang and the brilliant sound of fireworks began to ring from all directions. Xu Yi seemed to have had a long dream, in the dream, he also set off fireworks in his previous life, and the whole family stood under the eaves, looking at the bright lights in the night sky, and no one spoke.

It's just that suddenly, it seems as if a firework has sunk into the void.

Distorted into an inexplicable space-time passage, and when he woke up again, the person was already sitting in the courtyard.

"It's a new year!"

Xu Yi walked out of the eaves and said that the heavy snow that had fallen for a day was also relieved.

The snowman in the yard, with a red scarf, was also covered with a thin layer of snow.

Outside the courtyard, fireworks come and go, lighting up the sky.

These rising lights are people's hopes for the new year. All the unpleasantness, unhappiness, and bad luck in the past seem to be eliminated in the salute of fireworks.

Li Xun was still lying on the table, his snoring was steady.

Tonight, he drank a lot, and Xu Yi took a sip, and Li Xun dried it up.

I don't know if it's greedy for a cup, or if there's something on my mind.

However, even if you have something on your mind, maybe you will be in a dream, so let your mind and tonight's fireworks go away in a flash.

The next day, the first day of the Lunar New Year.

New Year's greetings.

Because there is a custom of not going far on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Yi did not plan to visit his friends, but just called to worship for the New Year.

Of course, many people also called Xu Yi to pay New Year's greetings.

Yao Meng is the first.

At nine o'clock in the morning, when Xu Yi was still asleep, Yao Meng's call came in:

"Happy New Year, boss!"

"I wish you a great fortune next year!"

Xu Yi: "Oh, Happy New Year, you are the same~"

After hanging up Yao Meng's phone, Xu Yi woke up completely. He shouted to the other room: "Lao Li! Lao Li! ”

No response.

Li Xun slept more dead than Xu Yi.

As for how the two slept in bed separately last night, Xu Yi doesn't remember.

But there is one thing that will not be mistaken, Li Xun must have helped him in.

This kid has drunk all the pieces, and he can still climb into bed by himself?

Impossible.

He got up from the bed, then walked to the next room and kicked Li Xun awake: "Lao Li, give you a New Year's greeting." Hurry up and prepare a New Year's red envelope for me! ”

Li Xun was sleepy-eyed: "Huh? ”

"Lying ...... You can't speak foul language, and you have to be gentle on the first day of the new year. After Li Xun came to his senses, he said directly: "Boss, if you don't talk about your conscience, I have nowhere to go, I am staying at your house, and you still want me to prepare a red envelope for you?" ”

Xu Yi: "You just say, are you ready or not?" ”

Seeing this, Li Xun compromised directly:

"Yes, I'll ask for good luck on the first day of the new year, and I'll prepare it for you right away."

Soon, Li Xun prepared a 100-yuan red envelope, and then beckoned Xu Yi to come over: "Boss, come over to pay New Year's greetings, by the way, a few nice words." If it's not good, I won't give this red envelope! ”

Xu Yi's mouth was very slippery, and even if he used idioms, from one to ten, he said a string of auspicious words.

Li Xun was quite satisfied and handed out the red envelope:

"The boss is so obedient, this is for you."

When Xu Yi opened the red envelope and saw it, he almost scolded his mother. He also took out a red envelope from his pocket, and then said: "It makes sense, it makes sense, the meaning of a hundred points of blessing is good, I don't have anything to say about it, and I will give it to you when I draw out nine thousand nine hundred." ”

As soon as the words fell, the red envelope in his hand was snatched away by Li Xun.

I only heard Li Xun smile and said:

"The meaning of 10,000 is better, so that everything goes well!"

"I'm so daring, I'll do everything well~" Xu Yi was about to chase after him, but Li Xun had already run away.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year.

There is another important thing, that is, "Operation Red Sea" officially landed in theaters nationwide, the first day of release! At the same time, there are seven other movies that are also competing for the Chinese New Year.

Among them, there are four that are known as big productions, including the Red Sea.

Of course, animated films are a regular program every year, and there will definitely be one that will appear in the Lunar New Year file.

Xu Yi deliberately checked the tickets and found that there were still many tickets for the afternoon session, so he bought two. Then he called Chu Ningning: "Director Chu, have a good New Year!" ”

-

"Happy New Year! Are you celebrating the Chinese New Year in Beijing this year? ”

"Yes. No, it's too boring to be idle alone, I want to ask Director Chu, do you have time to watch a movie in the afternoon? "This is what Xu Yi promised before, he would invite Chu Ningning to watch "Operation Red Sea", otherwise, he would not have taken the liberty of asking Chu Ningning.

It's somewhat ambiguous.

Unexpectedly, Chu Ningning agreed:

"Yes!"

"You send me the time and location, and I'll see you then."

Is this girl also idle?

It stands to reason that the family of the Yi Chu family should have a lot of personal contacts.

Just when Xu Yi was stunned, Li Xun came up and asked in a sly manner: "Boss, there is a situation!" Judging from the way you just called a nymphomaniac, I'm sure it must be a girl on the other end of the phone, right? ”

Xu Yi didn't care: "So what? ”

Li Xun immediately started an analysis and told the story:

"You also asked someone to watch a movie?"

"So, you're courting the other person, huh? Who is it, Director Chu? Is this a term of endearment between you? Boss, you have to be careful, don't get photographed by the paparazzi. ”

"Otherwise, how many innocent girls will break their hearts!"

Xu Yi seemed to be smiling, looked at Li Xun and said, "Do you want to go together?" ”

When Li Xun heard this, his spirit shrugged:

"Boss, you need a wingman, don't you?"

"It's right to choose me, I'm a person, it's not good to pick up girls by myself. But as a wingman, definitely qualified and excellent! ”

Li Xun was eager to try.

Falling in love is like this, talking about yourself is always looking ahead and backward. But watching others talk about it is very exciting.

Xu Yi sighed and said:

"Forget it, I still won't take you."

"Don't, boss!" The chivalrous spirit in Li Xun's heart has been hooked, no matter what, he has to promote a marriage, how can he die before he gets out of school? "Boss, take me, I definitely won't mess around."

Xu Yi shook his head and resolutely refused:

"I'm not afraid of you messing around, I'm afraid of you coming."

"I'll be honest with you, the person I asked for this time is a bit special. Of course, it's not that I want to pursue people, it's mainly to return a favor. You don't understand it. ”

When Xu Yi had an affair with the main station, Li Xun was still in the army and was not very clear about this matter.

Even if they heard some from the fat oranges later, they were all just words.

At that time, Xu Yi's courage was admirable, but the situation was also embarrassing.

If it weren't for Chu Ningning's appearance, the current Xu Yi would have been banned by the TV circle, and this matter is almost a certainty.

Therefore, Xu Yi accepted Chu Ningning's natural favor.

Not only do you have to invite someone to watch a movie, but you also have to invite her to a big meal.

Li Xun saw that Xu Yi didn't look like a joke, and immediately said with some interest:

"Okay, I'm not going to make a mess if you're busy with business."

"But...... What am I going to do in the afternoon? ”

What Li Xun is going to do, Xu Yike can't care. He is an adult, he can do whatever he likes, and he doesn't go to work, so he doesn't need to assign him a job.

Three o'clock in the afternoon.

Xu Yi appeared on time at the Raffles City shopping center in Dongzhimen, where he bought the movie shows. The 3:20 session will not end until 5:30.

Chu Ningning is also very punctual.

At around 3:05, Chu Ningning arrived at the gate of Raffles City Mall.

"Director Chu~"

"Waited, right?" Chu Ningning was wearing a gray windbreaker and a brimmed hat today, showing a completely different style from the usual cadre attire.

Xu Yi saw it for the first time, and secretly said in his heart:

Sure enough, a beautiful woman is beautiful in everything she wears.

Chu Ningning, who was wearing work clothes, was already looking like a country and a city, and he took off his clothes...... Ah no, when you change your clothes, it's even more beautiful and shocking.

Xu Yi: "No, I just arrived." ”

Chu Ningning: "Hmm. ”

The two deliberately kept a distance of about half a meter, which was a relatively friendly distance between the opposite sex. It's too far away, and it seems raw; It's too close, and it's easy to get problems.

Xu Yi redeemed the movie ticket and asked Chu Ningning by the way:

"Director Chu, what are you drinking?"

Chu Ningning: "Mineral water is fine." ”

In a blink of an eye, Xu Yi came over with a large bucket of popcorn and two bottles of mineral water.

Because the time was tight, there was almost no waiting, and the two entered the screening room and waited for the movie to start.

This is an extremely unique experience for Xu Yi.

The first is unique, and it is the first time in so many years that he has watched a movie alone with a girl of this level. Although it is not holding hands, it is enough to make people's hearts pound.

The second unique is that Xu Yi watched the movies he acted in.

This feeling is not experienced by ordinary people.

There is nothing to describe in the process of watching the movie, Xu Yi is a righteous gentleman, Chu Ningning is an old cadre style, and the two have almost no physical contact.

The two-and-a-half-hour viewing is thrilling and unfinished.

Especially the sacrifice of the Jiaolong commando team made Chu Ningning a little depressed.

She thought that there was nothing to look forward to in this movie. It's just that Xu Yi played a role in it, so you can take a look, after all, Xu Yi's previous achievements made Chu Ningning have some expectations for this man.

I didn't expect the quality of the movie to be so high!

"The film is very good and the shot is great." When he came out of the cinema, Chu Ningning sighed with heartfelt emotion: "I think Lao Chu should also love to watch it, and I will take Lao Chu to watch it a second time when I go back." ”

Xu Yi hurriedly said modestly:

"It's all good trained by the director."

Chu Ningning shook his head with a smile, and then said: "The director's rhythm is very good, but Xu Yi, you are also good at acting in it." Sniper...... Have you ever been exposed to a sniper before? ”

Xu Yi naturally didn't tell the truth, but said perfunctorily:

"Of course."

"I didn't watch it less on TV."

Chu Ningning glanced at Xu Yi, "I know that you don't have a word of truth." Okay, it's time for me to go back, thank you for inviting me to the movies, and for inviting me to popcorn. ”

When Xu Yi heard this, he subconsciously said:

"Director Chu, do you want to eat together in the evening?" (End of chapter)
