I still like you [entertainment circle]

Wen Yu slowly stirred the dumplings in the pot without saying a word.

Xiang Nan put the ingredients on the cabinet, pushed Wen Yu away, and turned off the fire on the pot.

Xiang Nan has been busy looking for a house for the past few days, so he doesn't come to Wen Yu's house very often.

Wen Yu is a very casual person who treats his life very casually, eats and dresses well, does not usually cook, and eats whatever is in the refrigerator, Xiang Nan is his assistant, and occasionally works as a nanny.

"I saw the Weibo you just posted." Xiang Nan took the ingredients out of the shopping bag and threw them into the sink.

Wen Yu said "hmm".

Xiang Nan handled the ingredients in his hand swiftly, turned his head and said, "You are so brave, there are so many fans of Ji Lin out there, why did you just name him on Weibo?"

"What?" Wen Yu looked at him nonchalantly.

"On the cusp of the storm, avoid it."

"What are you avoiding? He was the inspiration for that cartoon." Wen Yu picked an apple from the shopping bag, "Since they are so unsure, I'll help them make sure."

"Okay." Xiang Nan shrugged helplessly, "It's good that you are happy, but when did your relationship with Ji Lin get so good?"

"Is it good?" Wen Yu asked back.

"It's all a source of inspiration, isn't it good?"

Wen Yu took a bite of the apple and said lightly, "It's just a source of inspiration."

"By the way, brother Cheng asked me today, do you have any willingness to update that comic on Weibo..."

Before Xiang Nan finished asking, Wen Yu said directly, "No."

"...I haven't finished yet."

"I know what he's going to ask." Wen Yu looked at Xiang Nan, "Please tell him, "Universe" was drawn by me for fun, so he can stop thinking about making money."

"...Okay, I'll talk to him later."

"Have you found the house?" Wen Yu asked Xiang Nan.

"I found it, it's near the school."

"what about work?"

Xiang Nan was silent for a while, and said, "I'm not working as your assistant?"

"So, be my assistant for the rest of your life?" Wen Yu leaned against the cupboard, "Didn't your parents urge you to find a job?"

Xiang Nan frowned: "I'm urging you, you urging me to go home, I've already found a house to live in here, what a fucking home, anyway, I'm going back to arrange work for me, and it's something I don't want to do. "

Xiang Nan's face was not very good-looking, and his mood was rarely irritable.

"Then you can't always do odd jobs for me here?"

"Anyway, you paid me a lot." Xiang Nan muttered in a low voice.

Wen Yu laughed: "Co-author, you take me for a fool."

Xiang Nan looked up at him, "Don't you need me?"

Wen Yu looked at him and said nothing.

Does he need it?

He doesn't seem to need anything.

Even when Xiang Nan became his assistant out of nowhere, it was only because he saved himself, and he just happened to think that this child was a good match, that's all.

Xiang Nan may have some meaning to him, at least after meeting him, occasionally he will feel that "there is still someone there for me", although that time is very short.

"No need." Wen Yu shook his head.

Xiang Nan looked at him in disbelief: "Do you dare to be more unfeeling?"

"Dare."

Xiang Nan was so angry that his liver hurt.

"What can you do without me." Xiang Nan adjusted his glasses and said angrily, "You can't even cook."

"I'm not here to hide from you." Wen Yu's tone suddenly became serious, "Don't blindly choose to escape."

Xiang Nan paused for a moment with the hand holding the kitchen knife.

"If you like painting, go find a serious painting job. You can't learn much from me."

Xiang Nan loves painting and studied art in high school, but his parents pressured him to choose a major he didn't like when filling out the application form.

Xiang Nan has painting skills. During college, he enrolled in classes and continued to learn art. In the first half of his senior year, he did an internship. Xiang Nan also gave priority to painting work.

Back then, he went to Cheng Yufeng's comic company to apply for a job, and it was also at that time that he accidentally became Wen Yu's assistant.

"Do you think I'm running away?" Xiang Nan's voice was muffled, "...Maybe."

Seeing his gloomy expression, Wen Yu felt that he might be being serious, so he said, "I'm not urging you to leave, I just hope that you will be more—"

What more?

Wen Yu got stuck.

He doesn't know how to make chicken soup very much.

Xiang Nan sneered: "Don't force yourself to make chicken soup, I won't drink it."

Wen Yu clicked his tongue.

Xiang Nan got up the pot to refuel, raised his head and asked Wen Yu: "Why don't you think that I am worried about you and you are holding on to it?"

"Am I so worrying?"

"Don't you realize this yourself?"

The final version of the script has been finalized, filming is about to begin, and preparations for the launch conference are in full swing. Everything is ready, but the actor of the third male is still undecided.

There are many well-qualified, little-known starlets vying to audition for this role with not many roles.

The director vetoed them one by one, feeling dissatisfied.

In fact, he already had the best candidate in mind.

The male third is the boyfriend of the male protagonist in the movie, that is, the second personality of the male protagonist, a fantasy character, not many scenes, but very important, and is an indispensable and important role in the movie.

He represents the other soul of the hero, and also the hero's self.

The opening press conference is just around the corner, and the main actors of the film gather together to read the script. Without the third male actor, the process seems to be a bit stumbling.

Ji Lin bowed his head and flipped through the script, waiting for the other actors to speak their lines, and silently recited his own lines.

There was a knock on the door, and everyone looked up.

The director clapped his hands to signal everyone to pause.

When Wen Yu pushed the door and entered, Ji Lin was stunned.

"You're finally here." The director walked forward with a smile.

Wen Yu stared blankly at the people in the room, and replied, "I'm sorry for the traffic jam. This..."

Wen Yu glanced at the people in the room suspiciously, and when he saw Ji Shi, his eyes focused for a short time.

When Wen Yu received a call from the director, he thought that there was something wrong with the script. Looking at the scene in front of him, it seemed that it was not that simple.

Wen Yu frowned and asked, "Yes... What's wrong with the script?"

"No, no, the script is completely ok, you sit down first." The director greeted him.

Wen Yu hesitated, didn't move, and stood there silently.

There was a table of well-known celebrities sitting around the room, but it didn't matter, they were all new faces to Wen Yu.

Apart from--

Wen Yu's gaze drifted to Ji Lin's direction, but the other party avoided his gaze.

Wen Yu remained silent for a long time, without any reaction, and his attitude was a little arrogant.

Seeing that the atmosphere was extremely awkward, the director quickly eased up and said, "This is "Xavier", that is, the author of the original film, Mr. Wen Yu."

Wen Yu nodded politely, and asked directly, "Director Jiang, what do you want from me?"

The director took a sip from the teacup, "Sit down and talk, sit down and talk."

Due to the presence of everyone, Wen Yu had to give the director face. He was bored, so he found an empty chair and sat down.

"Long time no see." Wen Yu tilted his head and greeted Ji Lin with a lazy and gentle tone.

There were nearly ten people present, and he only greeted Ji Lin, which was arrogant enough.

Probably those who engage in art have more personality, and everyone's first impression of the author of the original film is not good.

A group of people shook their heads and flipped through the script, waiting for the director to speak.

Ji Lin couldn't help feeling uncomfortable, and replied bluntly: "Long time no see."

The director is a good-tempered person, and a cutting-edge director, who is very inclusive. Wen Yu's casual and undisciplined attitude, he somehow finds it cool.

Kind of like Strickland in The Moon and Sixpence.

Pulling proudly, lazily.

The director said slowly: "Today we gathered the big guys together to read the script. Thank you for your hard work. I invited Mr. Jiang Yu over here. I still hope that everyone can have an in-depth communication..."

Wen Yu leaned against the back of the chair, his mind wandering.

Serious people are usually very good. He appreciates the director's meticulous attitude, but at the same time feels that this attitude is superfluous.

Of course, the director's trip is not superfluous, he has other purposes.

Wen Yu was forced to listen to the plot of the movie, rubbed his temples, and felt his head hurt.

He almost recited these lines himself.

The part where it's Ji Lin's turn is still very audible.

Wen Yu had no memory of Ji Lin's voice when he was young, could it be his voice now?

——Clear and slow.

A youthful voice exuding righteousness.

No matter how Ji Lin repeats his lines in the tone of the characters in the play, Wen Yu can't connect him with the character of Xavier.

People's temperament is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, perhaps Wen Yu is biased.

He tilted his head slightly, staring at the man beside him with naked eyes.

It seems to be slightly biased in terms of prejudice, rather than paranoia.

He paranoidly thinks that Ji Lin is a perfect person and shouldn't play this kind of role.

Ji Lin opened and closed his lips, and when he silently recited his lines, his less prominent Adam's apple rolled slightly.

Finally noticing the eyes of the people next to him, Ji Lin pursed his lips and stopped.

With Wen Yu present, he should have been at a loss, but he was so absorbed in reading his lines that he forgot about this inconvenient existence for a while.

Ji Lin pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment, then suddenly asked in a low voice, "What are you looking at?"

His eyes still stayed on the script, and when he lowered his eyes, his thick eyelashes flickered.

Finally remembered him.Wen Yu sighed inwardly.

"Look at you." Wen Yu also whispered, "It's a question for nothing."

Wen Yu's frankness made Ji Lin's ears feel hot, and his eyelashes fluttered even more.

Really not funny.

Wen Yu laughed from the bottom of his heart.He turned his head lazily again.

Wen Yu suspected that the director called him here just to listen to a group of celebrities fighting here. There was no gap for in-depth communication.

But the actors soon parted.

"Hey, Ji Lin, please stay here for a while." The director stopped Ji Lin who had closed the script.

Hearing this, Ji Lin sat back down again.

After laying the groundwork for so long, I finally got to the point.

The director crossed his hands and looked sincerely at Wen Yu who was sitting across from him.

"By calling you here to communicate with the actors today, there is one more thing I want to ask you about."

"Next time, if you have something to talk about, you can talk about it..." Wen Yu paused, "I can't do it, and it's just a cover."

Wen Yu was a few minutes late, but at that time the actor had almost finished reading the script, so he left after a short time.

The director bowed his head and laughed: "It's indeed a cover, the ulterior motives are not about drinking. If that's the case, then I'll just say it straight. We haven't decided on the third male lead in the movie yet. I want to ask if you have any The idea of ​​playing the male third."
