Mr. Notorious [Entertainment]

Chapter 53 Reflection

Wen Junren's gaffe was only that one time, and when he appeared the next day, he returned to his previous state.

Apologize to Dongzhou, apologize to Rao Yibo, apologize to Zhu Jinpeng, and apologize to Chi Ye later.

"Brother Nian, I've been under too much pressure recently. I had some emotional problems yesterday. You must forgive me." Wen Junren said with some guilt.

Chi Ye smiled: "Junren, I think the one you should apologize to is He Yun, right?"

"Her?" Wen Junren's face darkened, and he laughed again, "Brother Nian is right, I have to apologize to He Yun."

He apologized to He Yun gently, which made He Yun turn pale with fright.

Not only that, Wen Junren also sent a 1000 yuan shopping card to every staff member at the scene, which was regarded as an apology for not working hard the previous day.

Everyone was overjoyed, and no one remembered how mean Wen Junren treated He Yun the day before.

Several people performed normally that day, and passed through without any surprises or dangers. Wen Junren learned the lesson of the first day and decided to hold back for the time being.The subsequent shooting process was considered smooth.

In the S City Film Festival, one of Wen Junren's works participated in the exhibition, and he went to S City one day in advance to prepare for the red carpet.

Chi Ye accompanied Zhu Jinpeng to finish filming the last scene of Zhao Guogong. Teacher Zhu's role in Hengdian was over, and the rest had to be filmed in real scenes.

In the previous online filming, Ling Hao was working overtime in the post-production stage. Jingxi had already sold the film at this stage, with an investment of 2000 million, and did not sell much more. The minimum guarantee was 3000 million plus a share. It is expected that the release date will be soon. It should be in April after the Chinese New Year.According to the contract, his remuneration is 8% of the total profit, and the profit will not be too large, at most it will be in the million level.

Fang Shuo and Ling Hao formed a small group for him. After the trailer of the vertical screen drama came out, it was sent to the reviewers of the two leading video platforms. The results were quite optimistic. After recovering the cost of 500 million, I can still earn a little.Moreover, the production process of the vertical screen drama is fast, and it is expected that it can be completed synchronously with Wangda in the later stage. If it goes online, it may be launched next month.

At present, the best thing he can do is to invest 2000 million under the spotlight. According to the current ratings, title sponsorship and special sponsorship have sold 3000 million.After deducting platform sharing and other costs, he can recover at least [-] million or more.

If these earnings are calculated, he should have about 4000 million start-up capital in the first half of next year.If he wants to make "Notorious", he needs at least 4000 million to make a decent film.

Looking for outside investors?

Chi Ye dismissed this idea a long time ago, a remake of a bad movie, a starring role with a not-so-famous reputation... It doesn't sound like a good project.

His greatest hope now... is to sell his shares.

On the way to City S, he received a text message from Wang Bin, saying that he had found a buyer, the price was right, his attitude and intention were clear, and the most important thing was that he had nothing to do with Qiuxin Group.

The other party's asking price is not high, 4000 million.

Exactly his shortfall.

At the end of the message, a photo of Chi Nian was attached.Chi Nian's hair has grown a bit, and his face is still ruddy. At first glance, he looks as if he is asleep...

Chi Ye looked at it for a long time, then closed the phone.

On the second day of the film festival, Tan Feihang finished all the activities of the day. When he walked out of the exhibition hall, he saw Chi Ye standing in the square outside, looking up at Xingyang's light box poster at the film festival.

The posters show Xingyang's outstanding works in recent years in turn, including those that have been released, those that have won awards, and those that will be released in the future.

He was wearing the plainest monochromatic suit, and the faintly lit neon lights made his figure straight and slender.

"Waiting for me for a long time?" Tan Feihang asked him.

Chi Ye seemed to have discovered Tan Feihang just now. He looked at him, and then looked up at the poster: "Mr. Tan, Xingyang has produced so many excellent works, and countless artists have emerged. Some of them have reached the end, but Most of them stopped in one place because of luck and talent, and then disappeared in obscurity. No one cares about where they went or what they did in the end.”

He smiled: "But there are still countless people who want to be artists, why?"

"Because once they become a star, they can get extremely high monetary rewards. Or enjoy the feeling of being in the spotlight."

"Yes, maybe some people really think so." Chi Ye said, "But I always feel that everyone just wants to act in the beginning. You have never seen the enthusiastic eyes of those students I teach. It's just In the end, some people still have their original intentions, and some people have long forgotten those behind them."

"What about you?" Tan Feihang asked him, "You opened a training school and worked in a drama troupe because you like acting? Have you ever considered becoming an artist?"

Chi Ye said bluntly: "I thought about it. But I can't."

"Why?" Tan Feihang said, "Because Chi Nian? Because you have the same face?"

Chi Ye didn't say a word, perhaps acquiescing.

He changed the subject: "Walking around?"

They walked quietly along the square.

"That draft..." Tan Feihang said suddenly, "Is it you who performed on the stage?"*

"Boss Tan?"

"The old man took me to the draft ten years ago. I remember a 19-year-old boy who performed a classic passage from Shakespeare's "As You Like It" on stage." Tan Feihang said.

"The world is a stage, and all men and women are just some actors. They all have times to end and times to come on stage. A person plays several roles in his life." Chi Ye slowly read the lines that made everyone happy .

Tan Feihang looked at him.

Chi Ye smiled: "It's been more than ten years, is it still important?"

"Important." Tan Feihang said, "I owe that boy an apology."

Chi Ye slowly traced the outline of Tan Feihang with his eyes.He remembered his youthful face when he was young, but time had already taken away that youthfulness and innocence.

These years are not long in one's life, but they are enough to bring about huge changes in everyone's destiny.

However, Tan Feihang's words seem to have penetrated time and returned to the time when he was young.

A certain fragment was filled.

"You don't owe anything." Chi Ye looked away and said, "If I were that boy, I would tell you so."

There was a cool wind, mixed with the sound of music. In the center of the entire film festival venue was a stage, and a small band was performing live.

Chi Ye said, "Do you want to listen to some different music?"

"Ok?"

There was a bit of cunning in Chi Ye's gentle smile, he took off his coat and handed it to Tan Feihang: "You wait for me."

Tan Feihang then watched him go around the not-so-high stage, chatted with the band members, and then took the violin on stage.Chi Ye tried the audition, and then fast-paced impromptu music started.

The brisk music interrupted the somewhat sad atmosphere, and there were more onlookers.

Then the saxophone, keyboard and drum kit slowly mix in with the rhythm.As if they had found their way and entered the queue, they cooperated with the violin to diffuse the happy sound waves and mix them into the torrent of the film festival.

When the music ended, there were quite a few onlookers, and they applauded.Others yelled for another one.

Chi Ye's face was a little red under the twilight, he jumped off the stage, took the jacket from Tan Feihang's hand, and whispered: "Mr. Tan, let's go."

They left the main venue, and the street lights were voice-activated, turning on and off as they walked.

"You can play the violin?"

"Yeah." Chi Ye said, "Actually, I'm quite proficient at playing the piano, but I'm just dealing with the grading exam. I'm not considered talented. Not only that, but I still completed my master's degree."

"Principal Chi is very talented."

"So it's impossible for me to enter the entertainment industry." Chi Ye said.

Tan Feihang froze for a moment before realizing the question Chi Ye had asked before answering: "Why?"

"When my parents divorced, before the court verdict came down, I asked Chi Nian and I for our wishes. Ask us who wants to be with Dad and who wants to be with Mom." Chi Ye said, "Chi Nian chose Dad."

"So, you feel you owe him?"

"I really owe him." Chi Ye smiled, "My father, Chi Xiangrong, originally did not agree to divorce. It was Chi Nianda who went to shoot commercials to earn him money for gambling and drinking, so he agreed to divorce. In order to let the rest To be happy, Chi Nian has given up everything. He has no talent, no education, in order to hang out in the entertainment industry, and to earn money to fill Chi Xiangrong's bottomless pit, he has nothing left."

"Look at me again." Chi Ye said, "Graduated from a prestigious university with a master's degree, a happy family, owning my own career and life pursuits... These are all opportunities that Chi Nian sacrificed himself to help me win. For acting, Even if I'm not an artist, I can still have a space to show off my talent, I've got enough. How can I enter the entertainment circle again and rob my younger brother of resources?"

Chi Ye paused.

"Mr. Tan, it's getting late today, and I have to rush back to City A, so let's do this first."

When Wang Bin was driving, Chi Ye in the back row seemed a little tired.

"What's the matter? Chatting with Tan Feihang, so tired?" Wang Bin asked him.

Chi Ye's eyelids trembled, and he said in a low voice, "Wang Bin, I will never see Tan Feihang again as Chi Ye in the future."

"Ok?"

"I don't know why..." he said softly, "I feel exhausted." The thought of seeing Tan Feihang again as Chi Nian after returning to the hotel at night made him tired.

Or it was because playing Chi Nian made him tired.

Or maybe it was using all the energy to cover up in front of Tan Feihang and make him embarrassed.

He really couldn't see Tan Feihang again, no one knew, from the first minute of seeing him tonight, his heartbeat was ups and downs as if he had escaped gravity, beating crazily.

It's ridiculous, they have met each other often, and their relationship is so close that they can be honest with each other, but when they met as Chi Ye, they almost lost their composure.

Probably, this is the gap between inside and outside the play.

Since you can't be restrained and calm.

Better not to see you again.

Chi Ye opened his eyes and looked at himself reflected in the car window.

He was in a trance for a moment.

Just on either side of this reflection.

One side is him.

On one side is Chi Nian.

Maybe the reflection is Chi Nian...

Or maybe he is the reflection of Chi Nian.

Staying by Tan Feihang's side as Chi Nian for a while is like a disguise, a mask, a lie... until all the dust settles.

Keep your heart.

He can leave without a second thought.
